Historically the warming house is staffed and operated 45 hours each week by part-time staff. These positions will begin as soon as weather perinits and end as temperatures increase and conditions to keep a solid ice surface are no longer favorable. ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council authorize hiring Timothy Strong (2016 Summer Seasonal) and advertise for up to two (2) other individuals to staff and operate the Lions Park Warming House? PROPOSAL DETAIUS/ANALYSIS: Through the proposed advertising and hiring of part-time warming house attendants the city assures adequate staffing and services provided to ice rink and warming house users, Utilization of multiple employees allows the warming house to be open for more hours without the need to pay overtime while offering a flexible schedule over nights, weekends and holidays. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for these positions are included in both 2016 & 2017 General Budgets. Hourly pay range would be $ 10-11, depending on experience. These positions are not eligible for benefits. City Council Meeting 121612016 Consent Item #3 OPTIONS: • Authorize hiring Timothy Strong along with advertising and hiring for up to two (2) additional part-time Warming House Attendants • Hire Timothy Strong and do not advertise for additional Warming House Attendants • Do not authorize advertisement and hiring Warming House Attendants Z�, RECOMMENDATION: If removed from the consent agenda: Motion to hire Timothy Strong as a warming house attendant and authorize staff to advertise and hire for up to two more part time warming house attendants. Page 2 1 Ff 11 � (fl'Y OF J_,,\K11 EL�NIO MAYOR AND COUNCIL COMMUNICATION AGENDA ITEM: Approval of Open Gov reporting tool SUBMITTED BY: Cathy Bendel, Finance Director REVIEWED BY: Kristina Handt, City Administrator FISCAL IMPACT: One time training and deployment fee of $2,500 and annual fee of $3,000-$5,700 depending on the number of reports/modules using. Staff estimates the 2017 annual fee to be $4,000; total cost of $6,500). SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUESIED.- At the October 4, 2016 City Council meeting, a presentation was made of a product called Open Gov which is used by other Cities to make it easier to view and access financial reports. There was a follow up City Council Workshop On October 11, 2016 where specific Lake Elmo reports were presented. The City Council is being sled to approve moving forward with purchasing this tool in 2017: BACKGROUND INFORMATION/STAFF REPORT: Staff worked with Open Gov to develop sample reports which were presented on October 11, 2016 at the City Council workshop. The City of Lake Elmo has an older version of Springbrook which makes the compilation of the data challenging. However, staff saw great value in the budgeting module/tools which could provide immediate relief to the annual budget compilation process. At the City Council workshop, staff was directed to get feedback from other Cities. Based on the feedback received, it appears many smaller Cities utilize this tool. The City of West St. Paul also uses this program. A large group of Cities use LOGIS software and that user group reviewed the use of Open Gov. Most chose not to go with Open Gov primarily due to their presenting an annual CAFR which they felt met their needs. Staff is recommending purchasing Open Gov for use in budgeting and financial reporting to the level it does not become a burden on staff. With the plan to upgrade various software programs to one more integrated platfonn, there is definite benefit in 2017 but the new software platform may have similar reporting abilities.

Based on the fact that the assessment should have been deferred, it is recommended that the City Council approve Resolution 2016-103 so that an abatement of the assessment can be filed with Washington County. lz="l#r-d ATTACHMENTS: [Consent Agenda, Itent 8] 1.

ISSUEBEFORE +COUNCIL. The Council is being asked to consider a'tet amendment to Chapter 5 1: Waste Water Treatment Systems, of City Code. PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS The Staff Report from this work session is attached for reference, explaining the recommended changes. The City Attorney has also reviewed the ordinance and concurs that the City's provision that requires Subsurface Sewage Treatments Systems (SSTSs) that serve two or more properties to be designed by a registered professional engineer conflicts with Minnesota Rules fart 72.000, subpart 3, as this rule prohibits the City from requiring additional local licenses, registrations, certificates or other similar professional credentials to perform SSTS work. Additional revisions have been made to the ordinance's language for clarity. FISCAL IMPACT. f the City chooses to adapt a current ordinance which meets current standards established in Minnesota Rules Chapter 7082, the City can contract with the county to administer the 'City ordinance. This includes reviewing all installation inspections as well as other associated functions. Specifically, variance requests would be considered by the City. Alternatively, as outlined below, the City may choose to repeal Section 51.002 of the City Cede, in which case the Washington County Subsurface Sewage Treatment System ordinance would take City Council Meeting 1216116 Consent Agenda Item #g effect within the City, and variance requests would be considered by the County, with the exception of variances for certain setbacks and zoning requirements, which would be considered by the City, OPTIONS: The City Council may • Approve the recommended ordinance amendment as part of tonight's consent agenda. • Remove the item from the consent agenda to discuss then approve the ordinance amendment unchanged. • Remove the item from the consent agenda to discuss then approve the ordinance � amendment unchanged. • Direct staff to choose to repeal Section 51.002 of the City Code. • Deny the ordinance amendment. RECOMMENDATION - Staff respectfully recommends the City Council approve the recommended changes to Chapter S 1: Waste Water Treatment Systems as it pertains to Subsurface Sewage Treatment Systems as part of tonight's consent agenda by approving Ordinance 08-1 9.

Chapter 51 of the Lake Elmo City Code of Ordinances Regarding Subsurface Sewage Treatment Systems. WHEREAS, the ordinance is lengthy; and WHEREAS, Minnesota Statutes, section 412.191, subd. 4, allows publication by title and summary in the case of lengthy ordinances or those containing charts or maps; and WHEREAS, the City Council believes that the following summary would clearly inform the public of the intent and effect of the ordinance. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Lake Elmo; that the City Clerk shall cause the following summary of Ordinance No. 08-159 to be published in the official newspaper in lieu of the entire ordinance: Public Notice The City Council of the City of Lake Elmo has adopted Ordinance No. 0 -15 , which. amends Title V.: Chapter 51 of the Lake Elmo City Code of Ordinances regarding Subsurface Sewage Treatment Systems, adopting Washington County's bringing it in to compliance with County and State rules by amending the following: i • • I Mayor Mike Pearson Julie Johnson, City Clerk 'ri tF. cxry oF LAKE ELMO STAFF REPORT DATE: October 11, 2016 WORK SESSION ITEM #.- DISCUSSION TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Kristina Handt, City Administrator AGENDA ITEM: SETS Ordinance and County Services BACKGROUND: The City's ordinances relating to subsurface sewage treatment systems (SETS) is in Chap 51 of the code, A copy is included in your packet. The city has been contracting with Washington County for SETS permit and inspections. It has been determined by county staff that the current city ordinance is out of compliance with state rules. ISSUE FOR DISCUSSION: What ordinance amendment should staff prepare? PRQPOSAL DELAILS/ANALYSIS. Included in your packet is a memo from county staff laying our the • and discussing the issues, F- lnmffl&A'.� In addition to the memo, I asked for more specific info from county staff about what aspects of the city's SSTS ordinance were out of compliance. Girard Goder provided the following comments: The City Code includes the following provision (because it incorporates the County Ordinance word for word): 3.I Administrative scope. This chapter shall apply and be in effect in all areas in Washington County other than cities and towns that have adopted ordinances that comply with Minnesota Statute Section 115.55, Minnesota Rules, Chapter 7082, and are as strict as this Chapter. [— Discussion: The City does not have the statutorily granted authority to enact an ordinance outside of its jurisdiction. 3.3 Variance procedures, [...] Modifications related to setbacks or zoning shall be heard by the Washington County Board of Adjustment and Appeals. [.. ; ] Discussion: Here the establishes that the Washington County Board of Adjustment and Appeals consider variance requests, which is problematic because the Board does not have land use authority within the City. This also conflicts with Section 51.005 of the City Code which establishes that variances and appeals shall be heard by the City. There are numerous other instances where the verbatim incorporation of the County Ordinance unintentionally grants/confers/requires County oversight/administration/control for a city ordinance. Should the City wish to continue to have the County administer the City ordinance, the better course o action would be for the City to establish itself as the regulatory authority by still adopting the County Ordinance but also modifying all references to Washington County [and the various boards, departments, etc.] to instead read as their City equivalent counterparts) and subsequently contract with the County to deliver the City program. In regards to the exceptions established in Section 53.003 of the City Code, I have the following comments: (A) The following provisions are adapted separately from the Chapter 4 adopted. in § 51.002 and are more restricting than Chapter 4 of the Washington County Development {rode: (1) Washington County Development Code Chapter 4; Section Ci - Permits: (a) "Mound systems are not allowed for collector systems in the OP Open Space Preservation District." In the hypothetical scenario* that an existing community septic system needed to be replaced dice to a separation to groundwater, and the soil conditions dictated that a replacement system would need to be a mound system, one of the two outcomes would result: I. An individual mound would need to constructed for every residence, or 2. The existing; structures would become uninhabitable because a replacement, compliance community septic system would be prohibited. *Mate: I do not know whether any existing community septic systems are located in OP Open Space 'reservation Districts, so the above points may be moot and this provision only applies to new construction. ( Washington County Development Code Chapter 4, Section 22 -;Maintenance: b) "Sewage tanks shall be pumped or inspected by a licensed septic pumper, or inspected by "a state - certified septic inspector every 2 years. A pumping and/or inspection report shall be submitted to the permitting authority by the pumper or inspector." As written, this requirement may be preempted by the restriction in MINN STAT 115.55 Subp. 5 (c), which states, in pertinent part: A certificate of compliance for an existing system is valid for three years from the date of issuance unless the local unit of government finds evidence of an imminent threat to public health or safety requiring removal and abatement under section 145A,04, subdivision 8. To fully address whether this provision is allowable, the term `inspected" as used here, would need to be defined. The type of inspection (a tank integrity assessment) that believe is intended here is allowable under state and county rules to be performed by a licensed septic maintenance business (Le. "septic pumper"). However the type of inspection (a compliance inspection) that is rewired under state and county rules to be performed by a "state -certified septic inspector", cannot be required every two years by the City; (B) OP Waste Water Treatment Systems. (1) Collector systems in the OP zone shall be operated and maintained by a business licensed as a service provider in accordance with Minn. Rules 7083. An operation and maintenance plan shall be prepared by the developer prior to final plat approval. The homeowners association shall be responsible for implementing this plan. Included in this plan shall be both ground water monitoring, and visual inspections. Biainual`reports ;shall be prepared by the service provider and submitted to the permitting authority; This provision is, for all intents and purposes, redundant with a provision in the County Ordinance. (C) Systems Serving Multiple Properties. (1) Any SSTS system serving two or more properties shall be designed by a registered professional engineer in the State of Minnesota in addition to having all other necessary certifications and licenses required by Minn. Rules, Chapter 7083, including the collection component of the shared system, or any component of the system that is located within an asset of the city. [- ] A local unit of government is not authorized to require additional local licenses, local registrations, local certificates, or other similar professional credentials to perform SSTS work.

December 6, 2016 CONSENT ITEM ## 10 TO: Mayor and City Council and Pars Commission FROM: Kristina Handt, City Administrator AGE NDA ITEM: Employer/Employee Health Insurance Cost Share BACKGROUND: Staff brought the Health insurance renewal information to bath the finance Committee and IIR Committee in November. The purpose was to get a recommendation on whether or not the 6% increase to the premium for 2017 would be shared equally between the employer and employee, as had been the= previous practice. As a result, the current employer contribution for health insurance is 7% for single coverage and 76.5% for family coverage: ISSUE FOR DISCUSSION: What percentage of the Health insurance premium should be covered by the employer in 2017? PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: The HR Committee recommended that a policy setting specific percentages be developed rather than the past practice of sharing the increases. This would provide a clearer communication tool and better documentation of the how much the City covers. The HR Committee further recommended that the City cover 0% of the premium for single coverage and. 0% for family coverage. No change in plan (currently Blue Cross Blue Shield) is recommended at this time.. FISCAL IMPACT: Increase to the City share of benefit expense of approximately 800 per month.

What is a CIP? A Capital linprovement Prograni, or CIP, is a multi -year (typically 5 years) capital expenditure plan for a City's infrastructure (such as streets, parks and utility systerns), vehicles, equipment and public buildings, It identifies the major projects needed and desired by the conummity, their potential costs and how they would be financed. Including a project in a CIP does not commit the city to that project. The City Council must specifically authorize each one, and the associated funding, before any project may proceed. When the CIP is reviewed (ideally annually, in conjunction with the budgeting process) projects may go forward as planned, advance ahead of schedule, be removed entirely, or new projects may be added, depending upon changes in circumstances and priorities, ��� projects represent more of, ____ that can __ evaluated each _time _the plan _-~_�updated.

The information developed as part of the capital planning process can help document the need for various projects and help the City Council sort out competing Lake Elmo's CIP includes all capital projects that cost at least $25,000 and have a useful life span of -rive years or longer.

There is o plan to continue contributing t ' the fund However there is $272,000 in the fund that could be transferred back: to the General Fund to be used for some of the projects in the CIP'. Capital improvement projects should be prioritized in sore way so that limited funding can be allocated to those which are most important. This is difficult because the varying nature of the projects and their beriefits and objectives are so disparate as to be essentially not :comparable. Some public agencies Have developed elaborate rating and ranking systems to try to set priorities.. Complicated scoring systems r�nay have some disadvantages because they may give a false sense of objectivity or precision to the priority setting process. Others use simpler systems, or simply do not try to compare projects that are like "apples and oranges." There is no accepted system or "industry standard" for prioritizing projects: The following system has been utilized by staff, Critical or urgent high -priority projects that should be done if at all possible, a special effort should be made to find sufficient funding for all of the projects in this group. 2 Very important, high -priority projects that should be done as funding becomes available, 3 Important and worthwhile projects to be considered if funding is available; may be deferred to a subsequent year. Less important, low -priority projects, desirable but not essential, 5 Future Consideration In reviewing the City Assets and the 2017 CIP, the following policies were identified as being seeded: Lease vs Buy — Leasing vehicles was researched and the leasing programs available were reviewed. The programs available are such that the;entire cost of the vehicle is paid in lease payments and there is no residual value. Since the City vehicles are well maintained and the residual value is high, staff does not recornm nd leasing vehicles as analysis slowed the vehicle cost was 40-50% above current cost with the current low interest Crates. Vehicle Replacement Schedule, —'I he City needs to pass a policy related to all vehicle replacements. Currently the Fire Department vehicle replacement policy is to replace all vehicles within 5 years (vehicle warranty period). However the Public Works department keeps vehicles well beyond their useful lives. 1 For 2017 through 2021, the draft CIP includes 75 separate projects with a total estimated cost o 33, 43,267. All cost estimates are preliminary and based on current dollars. No assumptions have been made about inflation. It will be important to refine and update costs when the plan i reviewed, especially for projects in the first year or two of the playa. Some projects beyond the five-year planning period are also included in the CIP. Most of these projects are replacements for equipment and vehicles (such as fire trucks) which may have a life span of 10, 15 to 20 years or every more. The plan may include "pending" projects for which ed. As mati timelines (and in most cases; cost estimates) have not ye been identifit � mo more r io is developed about t% need for, coast andpossiblefunding be included in future C1P updates: Street Project The draft update includes the following street projects in the I PW-0 7, North T i Lakes area streets are planned for reconstruction in 2017, Also, streets included in Phase Three of the downtown area are programmed for 2017.

The an annual basis for planned replacement of vehicles and major pieces of operating fundreceivestransfers from the operating budget of each department depending on its equipment needs. This allows the departmental Midgets for each major functiont the finds frorrr the costs of funding that function, including equipment whilesegregating operating budgets. Any revenues from the sale of old equipment being replaced are also deposited into the Bind. The Finance committee did not recommend method of funding vehicles: Their preference is to fund them as necessary or consider a leasing alternative. AdministrationlFinance: > AF-001, New City Hall, is the only request in this department. The CIP proposes completing a space needs study in 2017 to begin the plarming process, Finance Committee and Council should discuss if a naw fire station and/or public works barn, expansion should also be included in this study.

As part of the improvements the existing bituminous curb will be replaced with new concrete curb and gutter to improve drainage, improve the construction qualfty� and provide edge control to protect and extend the service life of the new bituminous surface. A geotechnical investigation was completed to support the Report recommendations. 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 planning department reviews larger parcels to determine if a parcel can be subdivided and the number of lots that could be obtained. There are a few properties located along the proposed improvements that have a qualified deferred assessment status. The property is still levied an assessment as part of the project, however the assessment is deferred until the status no longer exists for the property. The preliminary assessment rolls detailing each property's proposed assessment amount are included in the Appendix of the report. Assessments for street and drainage improvements will be levied over a 15 -year period, Assessments will be charged an interest rate of I% over the bond rate for the project. City Council Meeting December 6, 2016 [Regular Agenda Item 14] In addition to the recommended improvements, the estimated project costs and the proposed assessments, this Report addresses the permitting requirements and the easement and right-of- way acquisition needed to implement the improvements.

TJ IF CITY OF LAKE ELMO MAYOR AND COUNCIL COMMUNICATION A ENDA ITEM: Boulder Ponds PLJD Amendment/Rezoning SUBMITTED BY: Stephen Wensman, Planning Director THROUGH: .ristina 1landt, City .Administrator REVIENVED BY: Ben Gozola, Consultant Senior Planner Emily Becker, City Planner BACKGROUND: The City Council discussed the rezoning request at its meeting on 8/16/2016 and tabled it until the 9/16/2016 meeting in order to further research the issues. Staff sent a letter to the developer extending the 60 day review to 120 days. This item was to be continued at the 9/6/16 City Council meeting but was postponed for consideration by the applicant. The applicant has requested the rezoning main be considered by the City Council. ON Boulder Ponds LLC is requesting approval of a -.amendment 1► to rezone1w from Commercial PUD and MDR-PUD, respectively to HDR-PUD.. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on rBoulder Ponds is advocating for additionalon the underlying comprehensive plan designation and the underlying zoning for projectthe entire PUD - - The Council shall determine whether to approve the rezoning/Pl.1D amendment. PondsON Boulder incorrectly senior facility proposed for i desired HDR/PUD. Boulder Ponds would • like to add the adjacent• development' ! zoning. The zoning for Boulder Ponds occurred on 4/21/1 5 and was based on a density analysis presented during the Concept PI.UD process. The area guided for Medium Density Residential, which is approximately 10.1 acres, contains 17 single family dwellings and a planned 64 senior facility, which has a planned City Council Meeting 916116 gross density of 7.98 units per acre; the appropriate density for Medium Density Residential land use guide. The norther portion of the area was developed into 17 single family dwellings and was zoned LDRJPUD. The southern portion of the area was platted as Outlet C (2.24 acres) and zoned MDR/PUD for the planned 64-unit senior residential use. With MDR zoning, the maximum allowed density is only 7 units per acre, whereas with HDR, the maximum allowed density is 15 units per acre. Correction from the Planning Commission Report. A 64-unit residential development on Outlot C would have a density of 25.91 units per acre which exceeds the allowed HDR density. However, after consultation with Consultant Planner, Ben Gozola, Staff now understands that this density, 64 dwelling units on 2.24 acres was approved as part of the concept plan and anticipated at preliminary plat. By adding the 1.44 acre-Outlot B to the development site, rezoning it from Commercial/PUD to HDR/PUD, an additional density of 26 additional dwelling units could be allowed based on the HDR zoning, or 31 additional dwelling units if 20% density bonus was applied through the PUD (for a total potential density of 90 dwelling units over both Oultots B and C together, or 95 if density bonus is applicable through the PUD). No additional density would be allowed, as suggested by the Developer, for unused density in the other portions of the development, north of 51h Street. The Developer has suggested that they might want to be allowed additional density if providing senior congregate care facilities with services, as was done with the Arbor Glen project in the Village area. If you recall, the memory care units were not counted towards the overall density count because these units are recognized as being different from standard multi -family residential development. In addition, the City Council slightly increased the maximum allowed density up to a maximum of 16 units per acre within the VMX District area. These provisions required a comprehensive plan amendment and did not include any other areas besides the VMX Zoning District. Without a similar comprehensive plan amendment, any memory care units would be considered as dwelling units. PLANNING COMMISSION/PUBLIC HEARING COMMENTS: at the Public Hearing, no one spoke from the public and there was no written correspondence. The Planning Commission expressed concern about approving the rezoning to HDR/PUD without a specific plan and was concerned that the senior living project could end up as a market rate high density multi -family rental housing. The Planning Commission made a motion that they are in support of congregate care with services not counting as dwelling units as was approved in the VMX District. Todd Williams and Tom Kreimer are in support of more high density residential and that the Boulder Ponds site is an appropriate location. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the rezoning/PUD amendment with a 7-0 vote. FISCAL IMPACT: Page 2 City Council Meeting 916116 Regular Agenda Item #15 There would be no direct fiscal impact by the rezoning/PUD Amendment, however, it will improve the marketability of Outlots B and C, which will provide development feeand building permit fees to the City when developed, OPTIONS: The City Council should consider whether to approve the Rezoning/PUD Amendment from MDR/PUD and Commercial/PUD to HDR/PUD for t utlots C and B, respectively, l COMMENDATION Staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval of Ordinance 0 -149 Rezon ng/PUD Amendment with the following motion: "Move to approve a zoning rnap ammndanent/PUD Amendment, Ordinance 08-149, to rezone Outl is (PID 34.029.2I.33.0112 and C (Pl I ,34 029.21.33.0024), Bolder Ponds froin Conaan reialIPU1,1 and MDRIPUD respectively to HDRIPUD', ATTACHMENTS. • Planning Commission Minutes 7-2-10 • Planning Commission Report Packet • Ordinance 0 -149 • Developer's letter requesting additional density, Page G Ti 1h (J t h LA K E E LNI 0 City of Lake Elmo Planning Commission Meeting Minutes of July 25, 2016 Chairman Kreimer called to order the meeting of the Lake Elmo Planning Commission at 7:00 pm. .ml COMMISSIONERS PRESENT* Dunn, Larson, Griffin, Fields, Dodson, Kreimer, Lundqu 11 and Williams.

M they rezone the property, what would stop them from putting in a differnet type of High density housing. Wensman stated that there would be no guarantee that a differnet plan wouldn't come forward. Fields asked if the senior housing is the motivation for rezoning this property, why wouldn't we wait until there is a plan for a CUP for the senior housing. Fields feels that making the change could have the City end up with something that is Unintended. Dunn asked what qualified for a 209/6 bonus. Wensman stated that there is the base zoning and then with a PUD there are highlights that qualify for bonuses, Dunn stated 064" 8*r&s as they go along. Wensman stated that the deviations are spelled out at the time of preliminary plat. Fields thinks that rezoning this now without a project opens the door for market rate multi -family rental housing.

There was no second and this was addeclAo the approval motion, Williams stated that the City needs more HDR in the City as we have virtually none right now. He feels this is an appropriate place for HDR. Krermer also agrees that this was always shown as a multi -family building. Public Hearing — Zoning Text Amendment Open Space Development Is Wensman started his presentation regarding the Open Space ordinance. He went through the recommendations that the Planning Commission had. There was also recommendations from the City Council. This version takes into consideration the Comments of the City Council, This ordinance is currently not in the Zoning Code, and this will move it back to the zoning Code. 11110mug'011 fir4flutox 11410001, 1 1 M Williams is wondering if there is a list of purposes that the open space can be set aside for. He thinks that it is not clear enough what the purposes should be. Wensman stated that it does talk about agriculture and natural habitat, but it does not say that those are III the only 2 things it can be used for. Krelmer is wondering if language could be added if the land trust doesn't accept the land, the City may consider it. Williams stated that he believes the MN land trust typically wants open space that is 10 acres and this could be problematic with the reduction to 20 acres. Dunn feels that there seems to be unintended consequences for coming down to a 20 acre minimum. Williams thinks that on page 18 (3) is left over from the commercial PUD and should be taken out, Williams suggested some other changes that were clean up items that applied more to commercial PUD's. Public hearing opened at 9:25 pm No one spoke and there was no written correspondence M i.djl C-Mdflelpf a it 700"10 Public Hearing — Zoning text Amendment to opt out of requirements for Temporary Health Care Dwellings Wensman started his presentation by giving an overview of the Temporary Health Care Dwelling legislation. Staff drafted an ordinance to opt out of the state statute. The Building Official had a number of concerns such as septic systems, anchoring, water access, insulation, etc. Staff drafted an ordinance to opt out of the state statute based on the recommendation of the Planning Commission. -.- requirements of Minnesoat Statutes Section 462.3593, Vote- 7-0, motion carried unanimously. M Dodson is concerned that if the state felt strongly enough to enact this, Should we be willing to provide a mechanism for people to provide for loved ones. Larson feels that this legislation does not seem to fit in our community. Wensman stated that this is really to care for an aging population which is a valid concern, but is not sure that this is the best solution, This has been talked about in many different states. Werisman knoWs of at least a dozen cities around us that have opted out and only 1 that he knows of that have opted in. Business Item - Ordinance amendment for the keeping of pigeons Wensman gave a brief update on the pigeon ordinance. This item was talked about a while back and he has incorporated the suggestions of the Planning Commission from previous discussions. This is not an item that is in the zoning code, so a public hearing would not be required. This item will move forward to the City Council at a future date.

Outlot B is presently zoned for Commercial/PUD and is 1 .44 acres in size. Outlot C is presently zoned for MDR/PUD and is 2.24 acres in size. The applicant would like to rezone both parcels to HDR/PUD and market them together for a proposed senior housing project. According to Article XVI, Chapter 15, Section 757, Subd C of the Planned Unit Development Code, PUD Amendments shall be authorized by air amendment of the final development plan under the procedures for zoning amendment in Article III of the City Code of Ordinances. The rationale for the housing density in the MDR portion of Boulder Ponds was described in the 12/09/13 Planning Report for the Boulder Ponds PUD Concept Plan: The medium density area, which is approximately 10. 1 acres, contains 81 residential units (17 single family, 64 multi -family), resulting in a gross density of 7.98 units per acre. It should be noted that this density figure is slightly higher than what is guided by the Comprehensive Plan. However, given that the proposed development is a PUD, and that the amount of land guided for medium density residential development on these parcels by the Comprehensive Plan is much greater, Staff has determined that the proposed Concept Plan meets the spirit and intent of the Comprehensive Plan. To explain Staff's reasoning for this determination in another way, the proposed Concept Plan decreases the amount of total land guided for medium density development by over 20 acres by moving the collector road south. The slight increase in density above the allowed range per the Comp Plan is balanced by the significant reduction in the amount of land guided medium density. To put it in simple terms, by using the low end of gross density ranges in the Comp Plan, these parcels were guided to have 195 total residential units (not accounting for road right-of-way), whereas the proposed PUD Concept Plan includes 157 total units. Overall, the proposed PUD Concept Plan is consistent with the intent of the land use and density requirements as guided by the City's Comprehensive Plan, The rationale for the density is sound, however, when it recommending subsequent zoning for the sites, Staffhad recommended LDR/,PUD for the single family cul-de-sac, Jade Circle North, and MDR/PUD for the senior housing parcel (Outlot C). Outlot B was zoned Commercial PUD. The LDR/PUD zoning is the correct zoning for the single family housing on Jade Circle North just south of 51h Street, but the remaining 2.240 acre parcel (Outlot C) was zoned MDR/PUD for a planned 64 unit Senior Housing project. The zoning code, Section 154,453, Subdivision A, allows: Averaging of Lot Area, When lots are clustered within a development to provide common open space, the open space may be used to calculate an average density per lotto determine compliance with the individual lot area requirements. To determine the allowed density for Outlot C, A 64-unit project on a 2.240 acres site (and 0.23 acres of corresponding open space) would have a density of 25.91 units per acre, exceeding the 7- unit per acres allowed by the underlying MDR zoning, or 8.4-units per acre if 20% density bonus Planning Commission Meeting 7125116 Page, 3 was applied through the PUD. The HDR zoning would provide a 15-units per acre base density, or 18-units per acre if 20% density bonus was applied through the PUD,liven with HDR/PUD zoning, the 64-unit project would exceed the density allowable on the 2.47 acre site (,23 acres of open space). Therefore, OP4 Boulder Ponds .IBC is proposing to rezone Outlot B (1 .44 acres) from Cortmiercial/PUD to HDR/PUD to add to the Senior Housing project area. With the addition of Outlet B, the 64-unit senior housing project be 4.18 acres (3.68 acres outlot area + .5 acres of open space) in size with a density of 1-units per acre. HDR/PLJD is the appropriate zoning district for the proposed use on Outlots B and C combined. Senior housing (congregate housing) is a conditional use in both the Cominercial and HDR Zoning Districts, so although the request is for a rezoning from Commercial/PUD to HDRJPUD, the proposed underlying land use remains essentially the same. In order to proceed with a senior housing project on the Oulots B and C the following would be required: Final PUD Plans and Final Plat (combining the two outlots into a single lot) Conditional Use Permit DRAFT FINDINGS. In order to approve a rezoning, the Planning Commission shall consider findings are shall submit the same with its recommendation to the City Council. Staff suggests the following findings: 1. The Rezoning/PUD Amendment is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan designation for the subject property, 2. The proposed land use, Senior Housing, is a conditional use in both the Commercial and ffDR zoning districts, so the -underlying land use will remain unchanged, 3. The proposed HDR/PUD zoning is appropriate for the proposed senior housing density. 4.

We would like to include these as a discussion item at the December 61h City Council meeting. To summarize, we have two density calculations for consideration: 1, Comp Plan Density— Based on the City's Comprehensive Plan (Map 3-3), the site is allowed 266.7 units. After netting out the approved units, 75.7 additional units are allocated to the site. 2. Zoning/ PUD Density— Based on the approved Boulder Ponds Zoning/PUD, the site is allowed 240.6 units. After netting out the total number of planned units, 49.7 additional units are allowed. In either calculation, the multifamily site could be afforded significantly more density than currently allowed. In the Comp Plan analysis, there would be 168.7 Multifamily units and in the Zoning/PUD analysis, there would be 142.6 multifamily units.

The final plat includes 20 single family residential lots located to the east of the first phase. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on October 24, 2016 and tabled the request to allow Staff to research perceived stormwater issues related to the Wildflower and Village Preserve Developments and promised conditions of approval related to the Smith property. The Planning Commission resumed discussion of the application on I I / 14/16 and recommended approval after reviewing findings by the Valley Branch Watershed District and an understanding of the Smith Property issues. The City Council is being requested to adopt Resolution 2016- — approving the final plat and final PUD plans for Wildflower at Lake Elmo 2n' Addition with ten conditions. On 11/14/16, the Planning Commission reviewed the Valley Branch Watershed District report on the stormwater issues and the agreements between the developer and Mr. Smith regarding access and other improvements promised with the second addition. The Planning Commission determined that that the ston-awater issues are understood and will be resolved with the construction process and that the agreements between the developer and Mr. Smith were private agreements and not subject to plat approval. It was detennined, however, that two temporary easements that are set to expire with the approval of the second addition need to be replaced with new temporary easements. Originally, a larger second phase was anticipated which would have given the Smith property access and utilities. This will now occur with a later phase. New easements have been made a condition of final plat approval, City Council Meeting 121612016 Regular Agenda Item #16 As outlined in the Planning Commission report, the other outstanding issues are as follows: Street Names.

The site was graded with the first phase development, so no grading plans were included in the final plat submittal; VIEW AND ANALYSIS: At the October 10, 2016 Planning Commission meeting, Staff discussed. the PUT) Agreement and a conflict in the interpretation of the setback adjacent a public street in the courtyard areas. Since the meeting, Staff has further researched the issue and discovered that the PUD Agreement Summary document was in conflict with the preliminary Plat Resolution No. 2015- (attached). The resolution and attached 4/14/16 City Council minutes clarify the setback issue, establishing the sideyard setback adjacent a public street at 1. 0 feet, rather than 15 feet. That being so, encroachments are allowed into setbacks, but not necessarily drainage and utility easements unless the encroachment is reviewed by the City Engineer and an encroachment agreement is executed. This process will ensure that there will be no more issues similar to the encroachments on Lot 4, Block 4, Wildflower at Lake Elmo I' Addition. Also at the October 10, 2016 meeting during the public hearing, stormwater from Wildflower and Village Preserve was discussed and the Planning Commission and as a result, the Planning Commission tabled the Wildflower 2nd Addition final plat and final PUT) until the potential issues were better understood. John Hanson from the Valley Branch Watershed District has since investigated the storm water issues and has determined that there are some issues with the Wildflower stormwater pond depth and non-functioning infiltration basins in the Village Preserve development that will be corrected as part of the development process. The Village Preset ve infiltration basins will be corrected yet this fall. The report attributes the primary reason for the high water levels to the large volume of rain this season. Overall, the report confirms that the planning and design of the stormwater system is adequate for the proposed development and therefore, the system can accommodate the additional stormwater that will be created with the development of the Wildflower 2 nd Addition. Also at the public hearing, Rich Smith claimed some conditions of the I' Addition plat have not been satisfactorily addressed by the developer. The conditions appear to be a private agreement between Mr. Smith and Mr. Engstrom that would have provided connection to municipal sewer, landscaping and other improvements. The issues remaining with the final plat are: Stormwater. as mentioned above). Street Names. Street B on the Final Plat has not been given a proper name. This street should be named consistent with the City's street naming ordinance prior to recording the plat. Engineering Review, The City Engineer has reviewed the final plat submittal and has prepared a memorandum for the Commission and Council's review. The comments in the City Engineer's review memorandum dated September 29, 2016 should be addressed prior to releasing the plat for recording. Landscape Plan. A revised landscape plan has been submitted for review, but has not been approved. Approval of the landscape plan should be a condition prior to releasing the plat for recording. Protective Easement. A condition of preliminary plat was to protect all open space with protective easements. An protective easement is being prepared to protect Outlot A from any future development. This should be a condition of that needs to be addressed prior to releasing the plat for recording. Temporary Easements, The City Attorney has indicated that with the 2 d Addition Plat, existing temporary easement between the city and Mr. Smith and a temporary access easement between the developer and Mr. Smith will expire with the platting of the 2d Addition. New easement agreements are being drafted and the execution of these agreements should be made a condition of the 2 nd addition final plat. Preliminary Plat Conditions. The final plat is in conformance with the preliminary plat. The preliminary plat and PUT) plans were approved with conditions. Staff has provided comments on the status of each in bold italics: PUBLIC HEARING ITEM Sa M Preliminary Plat Conditions —'With Staff Update Comments (updated information in bold italics): 1) No lots within a FEMA flood zone shall be approved as part of a final plat until such time that the City's Floodplain Management Map has been amended to remove these lots.

The site was graded with the first phase development, so no grading plans were included in the final plat submittal. At the October 10, 2016 Planning Commission meeting, Staff discussed the PUD Agreement and a conflict in the interpretation of the setback adjacent a public street in the courtyard areas, Since the meeting, Staff has further researched the issue and discovered that the PUD Agreement Summary document was in conflict with the Preliminary Plat Resolution No. 2015-23 (attached), The resolution and attached 4/14/16 City Council minutes clarify the setback issue, establishing the 11 sideyard setback adjacent a public street at 10 feet, rather than 15 feet. That being said, encroachments are allowed into setbacks, but not necessarily drainage and utility easements. Staff will enforce a no encroachment policy for the drainage and utility easements adjacent the public street to ensure that there will be no more similar issues as was illustrated with Lot 4, Block 4, Wildflower at Lake Elmo I' Addition. Also at the October 10, 2016 meeting, storm -water from Wildflower and Village Preserve was discussed and the Planning Commission tabled the Wildflower 2nd Addition final plat and final PUD until the potential issues were better understood. John Hanson fi-orn the Valley Branch Watershed District is looking into the stormwater issues and will issue a report to the Valley Branch Board on 10/21/16, too late for the Planning Commission packet. Planning Staff will have copies of that memo available at the Planning Commission meeting and will email it to Planning Commissioners once it is received. The memo is anticipated to have an explanation of the stop-waterissues that will hopefully make sense and will allow Wildflower 2d Addition to proceed. The Rich Smith issue, comments made by Rich Smith that conditions of the first addition plat have not been complied with, appear to be a private agreement between Mr. Smith and Mr. Engstrom that would have provided connection to municipal sewer, landscaping and other improvements. The issues remaining with the final plat are: Stormwater. as mentioned above). Street Names. Street B on the Final Plat has not been given a proper name. This street should be named consistent with the City's street naming ordinance prior to recording the plat. Engineering Review.

We would like your design team to rethink the layout of the plantings within the HOA outlots M, C & P. It appears the layout is not very well developed. The absence of street tree plantings is noted and should be addressed. The observation is that the tree layout suggested simply occupies the green space rather than utilizing trees to reinforce or create space which would be our preference. 16.

The property owners west of the floodplain are concerned about the high water levels and standing water in the Lake Elmo Avenue ditch. The City of Lake Elmo's Planning Commission rejected approval of the next construction phase of the Wildflower at Lake Elmo subdivision until stormwater management issues are better understood and asked Valley Branch Watershed District to study the issue and identify potential solutions. ------------- o uncierstan ne 771777-7717 o ign water evels, we compared 211b precipitation a-aTaTto other years and reviewed the development plans and permit application models to determine if construction was done as planned and if stormwater management facilities are functioning as assumed, Based on this review, we have recommendations for corrective actions, This memo summarizes our analysis and findings, Precipitation The area received 32.29 inches of precipitation from April 1—September 30, 2016, making it by far the wettest year over the last 10 years. Between 2007 and 2015, the wettest April —September had been in 2014, with 28.54 inches of precipitation. The average during the 9-year period was 22.76 inches.

Based on their size, we estimate the trees to be 12-20 years old. While cottonwood trees are flood -resistant, oak trees are not. Therefore, water levels in the wetland have not To: Valley Branch Watershed Distract Board of Managers From: John Hanson Subject: Wildflower at Lake Elmo/Village Preserve/Floodplain Southwest of Goetschel Pond Date: October 19, 2016 Page., 3 likely been sustained at this level for at least 12-20 years.

Runoff from the remaining I acre (38% impervious) in the northwest corner of Village Preserve drains to an infiltration basin with a capacity of 36,800 cubic feet (Infiltration Basin 1, see Figure 3)L Soils investigations prior to construction of this basin indicated infiltration rates exceeded 20 inches per hour, It Was expected to drain dry within 48 hours of rainstorms with an infiltration rate of at durine storms:s[gnificantl�y greater than the 100-year 24-hour design storm (7.3 inches). rq photo, where the orange cone is the overflow), Therefore, this basin is not infiltrating as designed. As noted above, it should drain dry within 48 hours of a rainstorm and should not discharge. To: Valley Branch Watershed District Board of Managers from: John Hanson Subject: Wildflower at Lake Elmo/Village Preserve/Floodplain Southwest of Goefschel Pond Date: October 19, 2016 Page: 6 Within the Wildflower at Lake Elmo site (see Figure 1), the developer filled a low area south of Wetland (see Figure 2). That area now drains to an infiltration basin (Infiltration Basin 300) that overflows to Wetiand G (see Figurechange, combined with the Village Preserve drainage change, reduced th that low area, if it were to overflow, it would overflow to Wetland A. Even with the reduction in runoff storage by the elimination of the low area south of Wetland A, less runoff reaches Wetland A because of the development changes. Table 2 summarizes the drainage areas and inflow runoff volumes, To: Valley Branch Watershed District Board of Managers from: John Hanson Subject: Wildflower at Lake Elmo/Villoge Preserve/Floodplain Southwest of Goetschel Pond Date: October 19, 2016 Page: 7 High Water levels were observed in Wetland A in 2014, prior to any development in the area. Given that there has been much more precipitation in 2016, the current high Water levels are not surprising. And, they would likely be higher if the development had not made changes to the drainage area. Wetland A overflows to Veronica's Pond at Elevation 914.7. The 1%-probability flood level of Wetland A is Elevation 916.9. The ground adjacent to an outbuilding on the Krueger property west of Lake Elmo Avenue is approximately Elevation 917.5� While this outbuilding should be safe from flooding, the low area between it and Lake Elmo Avenue will fill with water after large storm events and during wet -weather cycles, Figure 4 shows a close-up view of Wetland A and the Krueger property. Wetland H and G Wetland H and G (see Figure 3) receive runoff from the Arbor Glen Senior Living Facility and Village Preserve sites, Before development, runoff from the Arbor Glen Senior Living Facility and Village Preserve generally drained southeast and eventually to Downs Lake, Once complete, part of the Arbor Glen Senior Living site and all of the Village Preserve site will drain north to the Goetschel Pond watershed. The VBWD allowed this diversion because soils investigations and computer modeling showed that the diversion would not increase the 100-year flood level of the local lowlands or Goetschel Pond.

Therefore, Infiltration Basin 2 is not functioning as designed� If the basi were functioning properly, Wetland H and downstream wetlands on the Wildflower at Lake Elmo site would receive less runoff than they did this summer. To: Volley Branch Watershed Disfrict Board of Managers From: John Hanson Subject: Wildflower at Lake Elmo/Village Preserve/Floodplain Southwest of Goetschel Pond Date: October 19, 2016 Page: 8 Wetland F (and Veronica's Pond) is downstream of area developments and associated stormwater management facilities under construction. While the current water level in the wetland appears to be approximately Elevation 904, 11 feet below the 1%-probability flood level, it is higher than typical, As previously described, several 8-inch-diameter and smaller oak trees, which are not flood -resistant, are in standing water. The high water level is likely because: • 2016 has been an extremely wet year. During the warm seasons of the last 60 years, only 2002, 1993, 1991, 1986, and 1978 were as wet. Infiltration Basin 2 on the Village Preserve site discharged water that eventually reached Wetland F. It was designed to discharge only in extreme events; otherwise, no water should discharge to the Wildflower at Lake Elmo site. • Infiltration Basin 300 on the Wildflower at Lake Elmo site was not constructed to store as much runoff as planned and could have sent more runoff downstream and eventually to Wetland F. • Infiltration Basin 200 on the Wildflower at Lake Elmo site is not draining dry within 48 hours and is sending more runoff downstream. As previously noted, the infiltration basins on the Village Preserve site are not infiltrating. The developer said they will be cleaned out by the end of October 2016. On the Wildflower at Lake Elmo site, erosion problems should be corrected, builders should be more diligent about installing and maintaining erosion controls, and vegetation should be better established within the floodplain.

November 21, 2016 Stephen Wensman, Planning Director City of Lake Elmo 3800 Laverne Avenue North Lake Elmo, MN 55042 RE: City of Lake Elmo Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) Metropolitan Council Review No. 21630-1 Metropolitan Council District No. 12 Dear Mr. Wensman: The Metropolitan Council received the EAW for the Royal Golf Club Residential Development project in the City of Lake Elmo on October 21, 2016, The proposed project is located 222.2 gross acres located between 101' Street North and 20"1 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 EAW 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 following comments 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 rise 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 be 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 rnap of the project will also need to be submitted to the Metropolitan Council. The Council's Environmental Set -vice Municipal Services staffwill need to review, comment, and recornmend issuance of the construction permit by the MPCA before connection can be made to the City's wastewater disposal systern. Forecasts (Todd 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 ofTA Z 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 gains 0 households during the period from 2010-2040. Council staffrecommend adding +250 households. +700 population to theTAZ #2403 forecast, Balancing adjustments can be made to the TAZs elsewhere in the community. The City can update the TA Z 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 EW The Council will not take formal action on the EAW. If you have any questions or need further information, please contact me at 651-602-1 895.

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 — "Geo!wf 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 27", 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 at. , 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 stormwater ponds are planned near the northeast comer 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 dis ussion 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 cast 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 equol opportunity employer Stephen Wensman The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Page 2 November 23d, 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 deternimed. 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.

The sub -section titled "PFCs and Area Groundwater Contaminatiori" (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.

Lake Elmo, MN 5504 ICE: The Royal golf Club Residential Development EA. Dear Stephen Wensman, The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources NDNR :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 PIED 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 farm 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. DNR 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 I? e 3 - Rewrite the statement on page 3 so that it dues not imply that the City has determined that this-projectmeets 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 •M ^ PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER CONTAINING A MINIMUM OF 10% POST-CONSUMERWASTE 40 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER, MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES CENTRAL REGION 1200 WARNER ROAD SAINT PAUL, MN 55106 Ir 651-2509-5800 MNDNR fully evaluated whether the development plans are in conformance with City ordinances and State shoreland rules. • Pa 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 82-117W to 82-417W. The MNDNR ID # for the unnamed public watercourse is M-050-009-00 1. • Pa 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 Ap pendix 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. • Pa e 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? • Fieure 7 — 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. • Has a tree preservation and replacement plan been prepared for this proposed development that meets City ordinance?

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 storrawater 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 conformance to the VBWD rules and regulations when a permit application is submitted. The facilities depleted at the northeast comer of the site are shown on the golf course rather than in the residential subdivision. This could be problematic. de -sacs.

This is true, 2 1 Page 18 states "The net increase in impervious surface is estimated at 88.6 acres. 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 it will need timely reviews. Page 30 tells us "The project area includes potential Blanding's turtle's (Emydoidea blandingii), habitat consisting of wetlands and sandy soils. The best Blanding's turtle habitat includes wetland complexes larger than 10 acres that are surrounded by open sandy uplands."

There are residents on all four sides of the development and all wish to have as little sight of the development as possible. Buckthorn is not an acceptable buffer. "The project will not involve installation of intense lights that would cause glare, nor will it include industries that would emit vapor plumes." The developer needs to follow the lighting codes of Lake Elmo. Page 34 states, "The project is not expected to generate dust or odors at levels considered unusual for suburban development construction practices." The surrounding area does not have dense development, the area is not your "usual suburban development". "Dust, odors, and noise levels are expected to be slightly higher during project construction than project operations". Hours of operation are important especially if they will be going on for 5-7 years.

Enhancing the greenway cooridor that connects Lake Elmo to natural areas to the east is encouraged. Section 10 — Geology, Soils and Topography / Land Forms Section b. Soils and Topography • Compliance with NPDES, watershed, and local requirements will minimize adverse impacts of soil erosion and sedimentation. The WCD can provide support to the City to ensure compliance as needed. The WCD recommends phasing the earthwork and grading to the greatest extent possible to limit the scale and duration of exposed soils during construction, • Preserve HSG B soils to the extent possible. Protecting zones of optimum infiltration from compaction is preferred • Minimize soil compaction and provide soil restoration in landscaped areas to enhance infiltration • Deep -rip the soils with a toothed bucket in low or compacted areas to promote infiltration after major construction is complete • Supervisors: Louise Smallidge -Bob Rosenquist - George Weyer - John Rbeinberger n Jim Levitt 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 bioretention/infiltration practices off-line • Include flow-splitter and high -flow bypass • Provide pre-treatment (especially for sediment to prolong the life of a practice) • Keep the max water depth to acceptable levels based on soil types and actual infiltration rates • Refer to the Minnesota Stormwater Manual, 2013 (on MN PCA website) 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. Section 13 — Fish, Wildlife, Plant Communities and Sensitive Ecological Resources (Rare Features) Section d. Buckthorn removal from entire project area rather than leaving visual barrier along exterior roadways will minimize spread of this restricted noxious weed. Replace visual barrier of removed Buckthorn by replanting native trees and shrubs. Conclusions There are no known impacts that have not already been addressed in this EAW that warrant an Environmental Impact Statement. The Washington Conservation District appreciates'the opportunity to review this EAW. Please call me at 651-330-8220, extension 20, if you have any questions about our review.

Wensman, 1 write in comment of the EAW that was filed for the RoyalResidential Development as a concerned local resident. I live at 11365 24th Street Court North, Lake What else ! I wed to complete to fully document my concerns regarding commentsthan writing my ! 1• not agree prepared file, here are the features that I feel need more due dili ence in Sections 8, 12, 15 and 19 Missile an Approval from the city. I see no record of a Tree Preservation plan or tree inventory as required by the Lake Elmo Zoning Code Chapter 154. In the EAW, Table `2:summarizes the Before and After Cover types. Included in this out line there is a 53% reduction in the woodland cover: 30 is the Limit of the allowable tree removal rate within the City Code. With this documented plan to reduce woodland cover by more than 5%, this is a "potential impact that warrants detailed further investigation" and documentation. The Developer should hired a registered Forrester to inventory all the onsite;trees to be added to this Environmental Impact Statement. Unit of Government Type of Application Status City of Lake Elmo Tree Preservation Plan Not outlined, Prepared, Submitted or Approved «• a A. Purpose. Within the City of Labe Elmo trees and woodlands are considered a valuable asset to the community. The City places a priority can protecting this asset and finds that it is in the best interest to regulate the development and alteration of wooded areas within the community. All builders, developers and subdividers shall comply with all the provisions in the Zoning Code which address the preservation of existing significant trees. All builders, developers and subdividers are encouraged to preserve all healthy trees of significant value even if the trees do not meet the size requirements to be considered significant trees. * Section 12. Caintaminatio/Hazardous Materials/ Wastes Within the Regulated .Soil Management Area- what isthe potential impact to local residential groundwater of managing all of the excavated hazardous soil on -site, at the west end of the Driving range? What type of impervious barrier was laid below the transferred Regulated soil? i see you no description for the layer used in the HELP model referenced in the report by Carlson McCain, Inc. Additional, expansion on the assumptions and outputs from this model are a gap from this report in Appendix D. By concentrating the hazardous soil at the west side of the driving range - how has this minimized the impact of these hazards on the local Groundwater? I see how this has minimized the impact to the planned development but what about the rest of the community in Lake Elmo? section is Wor Section 10 ""Visual" and • •e Environmental Effects" Light pollution — What are the project details related to minimizing escapement of light into the environment. The proposal needs to address light pollution and the impact on the regional ecosystem and wildlife. I think a documented report detailing the baseline local night-time brightness compared to the expected increase will be an important feature to outline as part of the Environmental Impact Statement. 0 =1 yj jrW c,rry f-) LAKE ELMO MAYOR AND COUNCIL COMMUNICATION AGENDAITEM: Royal Golf Development Comprehensive Plan Amendment SUBMITTED BY: Ben Go ola, Consulting Senior Planner THROUGH: sti a Handt; City Administrator strator REVIEWED BY: Stephen Wensman, Planning Director COMPREHENSIVETitle 41idm.- course.Golf Course Development, LLC requesting approval of a comprehensive plan amendment to facilitate the proposed redevelopment of the former Tartan Park Golf In late 2016, the City Council reviewed a proposed PUD Concept Plan for redevelopment of the former Tartan Park Golf Course brought forward by HC Golf Course Development, LLC. As part of that review, Council voiced support tier concept) of a comprehensive plan amendment to facilitate the proposed land use changes. This follow up application examines potential ways the plan could be changed. Three options for Council consideration resulted from the Planning Commission's deliberation on the request: Option I — Establishment of the Village Transition Area between the (old Village and I Clan Street to the east of Lake Elmo Avenue. This was the option discussed during Concept flan review, and was the initial option recommended by staff. Option 2 — Creation of a "golf Course Community" land use designation. The Planning Commission requested creation of this option out of concern that Option I's Village Transition .Area may open, up the corridor for too many potential expansions of the municipal service system. If implemented, a follow up process to create a corresponding zoning district City Council Meeting 121612016 Regular Agenda Item #18 Option 3 — Establishment of a limited Village Transition Area only around the Tartan Park area proposed for development. This is the option that was ultimately recommended by the Planning Commission, The City Council is asked to review all three options, and make a determination as to which (if any) should be approved at this time. Guidance: The City Council has its greatest level of decision making discretion when it comes to the comprehensive plan. There are no specific criteria binding Council to a certain decision. Council must review the request, and detemrine whether one of the proposed options is in the best interest of the City. ■ Each option is accompanied by a cover sheet which provides a summary of the option and things to consider. • Each option includes comments accompanying the proposed text edits to explain whyy the proposed changes are recommended.

Prenervation gal F'tur al Character One of the main benefits of the official land use plan is that the long range planning objective to retain permanent rural identity is achieved. Linder 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. Future Land Use Boundaries The curved fines separating future land uses on Map 3-3 midway between 1-94 and 10"' 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. Ruffle ring§/L acid Use Transitions The City's Land Use Plan calls for a diverse range of development types, from very low density agricultural and rural residential uses to high density urban residential and commercial development. In order to provide for a transition between the existing and planned rural development and future urban development the Land Use Plan creates a lower density urban residential district. This low density urban district is planned for areas near existing rural development areas, and will provide for an area of transition between higher density residential development and either existing or planned rural development areas. Certain areas designated as Public/Park on the Future Land Use Map (Map 3-3) have been established to provide a green belt/buffer between areas developed under a previous Comprehensive Plan at rural development densities and areas planned for residential development at higher densities. This green belt will be incorporated as part of any development plans for new development with a minimum width of 100 feet. The green belt may be incorporated as part of the greenway envisioned in the Lake Elmo Comprehensive Park and Recreation Plan (Chapter IX), nd final] it is rest nfzed that Iand Horeb of 1t1'" Street east of Lake Elmo Avenue and south of the Clld Commented [F3 A1j: This first paragraph ies 'hen ident€fied as the the city is establlshi ig a Village rransiti It°s antial lot sizes ran n from- area uniquely situated betweenthe City'anizingareas that will, over time, have affordably accesswill likel have to sewer.

This type of development will typically see residential, commercial, office, and/or similar uses combined in complimentary ways within the same building: Mixed Uses south of loth Street The mixed use designation on property south of Toth 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 tow Density Residential land use category will not allowed as an alternative land use within mixed -use areas.

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, Preservation of Rural f'haara cter 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, avast 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. Future Land Lise Boundaries The curved lines separating future land uses on Map 3-3 midway between 1-94 and 10 h Street indicate one passible alignment of a future east/west collector roadway envisioned to serve the new development in this area of the City.

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 Buffering/Land Use Transitions The City`s Land Use Plan calls for a diverse range of development types, from very low density agricultural and rural residential uses to high density urban residential and commercial development. in order to provide for a transition between the existing and planned rural development and future urban development; the Land Use Plan creates a lower density urban residential district. This low density urban district is planned for areas near existing rural development areas, and will provide for an area of transition between higher density residential development and either existing or planned rural development areas; Certain areas designated as Public/Park on the Future Lana Use Map (Map 3-3) have been established to provide a green belt/buffer between areas developed under a previous Comprehensive Plan at rural development densities and areas planned for residential development at higher densities, This green belt will be incorporated as part of any development plans for new development with a minimum width of 100 feet. The green belt may be incorporated as part of the greenway envisioned in the Lake Elmo Comprehensive Park and Recreation Plan (Chapter IX). An final!

Typically, no wake restrictions are detennined based on the likelihood of shoreline damage when the takes are elevated due to flooding. Bolton & Menk's experience understanding shoreline impacts and erosion protection will support the City of Lake Elmo with objective information to make technical and informed decisions in establishing no wake elevations. Our successful approach includes: Unbiased Data — Establishing ordinances that affect lake activities are particularly difficult in communities that have emotional connections to their lake systems. In order to reduce perceived emotional impacts, impartial and objective data is required to establish no wake elevations that are not driven by passionate lake home owners or recreationists. Comprehensive Decisions — Lake regulations impact many users beyond those that live there. Therefore, the decisions that impact no wake limitations must include environmental implications, shoreline property values, and recreational uses. Public Education —The lake users must be informed as to why these elevations are established and what the potential impacts are if these limitations are exceeded in order to fully understand their water resources. Setting the elevation is only a portion of the overall goal; education tells the rest of the story, In continued service to the City of Lake Elmo, we are excited at the opportunity to analyze no wake elevations for several critical lakes, We are flexible in our scope and fees to best suit the City's needs. I will serve as your Project Manager and lead client contact on this project. Please feel free to contact me at 651-724-0404 or timol(o-) ,bolton-menk.com if you have any questions regarding our proposal. Bolton & Menk, Inc. Timothy I Olson, P.E., CFM Water Resources Project Manager Softon & Monk is an equal opportunity employan MHOMEM 0 The City of Lake Elmo is seeking an assessment of the current no wake restrictions on Lakes Olson, De Montreville, Jane, and Elmo and an analysis of the conditions that could potentially change those elevations. We understand that an objective approach to establishing no wake regulations is necessary to bring solidarity to already sensitive interactions between stakeholders. Restrictions to take uses under flooding conditions begins at the local level. The City of Lake Elmo is responsible for establishing ordinances that protect the shoreline area as well as educate the general public as to why these restrictions are important, Bolton & Menk intends to provide technical support in establishing those restrictions and is available to provide additional public engagement services as directed by future goals. Below is our approach to developing a sustainable assessment of the current no wake restrictions and technical support for modifications to the minimum no wake elevations that can be supported by the conunurrity and its stakeholders. 1.1 Kick-off Meeting A kick-off meeting will be scheduled immediately after Notice -to -Proceed. The meeting will include the following: • Introduce key City staff to key consulting staff developing the plan • Establish communication protocols associated with the various aspects of the plan. • Formulate a mutually acceptable milestone schedule Develop cooperation to share available lake information and practical field experience 1.2 Project Milestone Meetings We anticipate up to two additional meetings with City staff at key milestones to ensure project tasks are completed to best meet your needs. Consistent communication between team members will ensure project budgets match the required deliverables. 1.3 Stakeholder Meetings Bolton & Menk will attend one stakeholder meeting once the Project Team has reached consent on an established no wake elevation. It is assumed the City of Lake Elmo will provide a list of stakeholders and perform all communication and establish a meeting place and time. OPTIONAL: Public Education and Outreach We understand significant value can be added to any technical analysis by establishing opportunities for the general public to become educated about the issues and - provide valuable feedback. Bolton & Menk has decades of experience working in a public forum to inform citizens on technical issues. If the City deems appropriate, Bolton & Menk will attend one community event to facilitate public education and outreach. This includes the following: 0 Meeting attendance Preparation of meeting/presentation materials Meeting minutes This is an optional task. If the City sees added value in this task, we will negotiate a fee at your request. Submitted by Bolton & Menk, Inc. Slow No Wake Zone Assessments I Lake Elmo Task 2: Data Collection 2.1 Geospatial Information Bolton & Menk has access to a robust collection of publically available geospatial data that will assist in the development of a shoreline assessment. This includes, but is not limited to: • Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) surface topography • Hydrography data • MnDNR lake level data • Aerial photography Bolton & Menk will rely on the City to provide any additional information regarding known lake and shoreline issues. This information may include the following: • Septic system locations • Private well locations • Lake outlet information (where available) • Known shoreline erosion issues • Known lake flooding issues 2.2 Historic Lake Levels Bolton & Menk will collect historic lake levels for each of the four lakes over the period of record. Lake Olson Historic Lake Levels r- OPTIONAL: Field Data Collection In these early analysis stages, it may not be prudent to collect any field survey data or other specific site information. However, Bolton & Menk is fully capable of facilitating the following field data collection procedures: • Resident/recreationist surveys • Topographic survey of erosion areas, low floor elevations, low home openings, septic systems, wells, beaches, etc. • Photo collection from lakeside into the shore via boat • 2-Dimensional photo collection via unmanned drone ci This specific service in provide critical information at a very high resolution for a relatively low cost, Bolton & Menk currently hasfederally certified drone pilots that are willing to provide additional scope Band fees related to 2D photo collection programs, This is an optional task, If the City sees added value in this task, we will negotiate a fee at your request. Task 3: No Wake Analysis 3.1 Analyze Lake Level Data Utilizing the MnDNR lake level information, Bolton & Me will: • Establish lake level frequencies using graphical plotting position • Detern-sine lake level frequencies fora variety of return intervals (i.e. I -year, 5-year, 1, 0-year, etc.) • Compare DNR OHW elevations to lake level frequencies • Assess the number of exceedances for each return interval to understand how often the wave action will affect shoreline stabilization in a typical year 3.2 Analyze Potential Wave Impacts Wave affects can come from boat and wave sources and each has their potential impact to routine shoreline erosion and no wake implications, The following items will require analysis: • Use literature to determine wave heights from typical boats at varying distances from the shore • Analyze wave heights from potential wind loads Submitted by Bolton & Menk, Inc. Slow No Wake Zone Assessments I Lake Elmo 2 • C>ompareand contrast the severity of erosion from boat and wind loading 3.3 Geospatial Evaluation Dolton & Cvlenk will utilize CIS to develop several deliverable products that help convey this technical information in a graphical fort at. We will perform the following tasks: • Plot specific lake levels to determine property and shoreline impacts without wake • Identify shoreline areas that would be affected by wake under a variety of return intervals • Identify and quantify risks to shoreline, septic systems, wells, homes, and other structures • Outline no wake ordinance measures and plat trigger elevations that may be implemented to reduce wave -related risks ReportTask 4-.

A study for an issue that isn't a problem is a waste of taxpayers' funds. We need common sense & fiscal responsibility, not a study! I recommend the City of Lake Elmo not waste money on a study & keep the no wake trigger level at 929.7 ft. for Lakes Demontreville & Lake Olson, because it works & there are no damage issues. hank you, Dave Carlson bdbsewzone@aol.com ` f i F - CITY OF LAKE ELMO STAFF REPORT DATE: December 6, 2016 REGULAR ITEM #t: 1 AGENDA ITEM: Lake Shoreline/Boating Sturfy In August the City Council referred the no wake high water level issue to the Environmental Committee for review and recommendation. The Environmental Committee heard from property owners and ether interested lake folks as well as members of the DNR over the course of two meeting in October and November. Consistent with what staff had shared previously, the DNR continued to suggest some form of study be done and asked what has changed since the no walk level was last determined in 2013. The Environmental Conunittee members agreed that a third party should be engaged to conduct a study of the lakes and the impact of boating on shoreline erosion. ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City engage an engineering firm to conduct a study of the impact of beating and the no wake level on the shorelines of the four recreational lakes (Olson, Demontreville, ,lane and Elmo)? PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS:: Staff has reached out to the Washington Conservation District as was discussed at the November Environmental Committee ttee meeting. The WCD is not able to provide these type of services, however they did assist in suggesting engineering firms to contact. Staff' contacted three engineering firms and expects to receive a scope of services and rough cost estimate from each of them. At the time of the staff report, all of the firms had not yet submitted their proposals. Staff will provide them to the Council prior to the meeting on December 6�''. FISCAL PACT. The fiscal impact is not known at this time. Funds for the study could come out of the general fund balance. Additionally, the Council may wish to ask for cost share from the Lake Associations similar to the premise for other lake duality improvement project cost shares included in the 2017 budget, THR� CITY OF LAKE ELMO MAYOR AND COUNCIL COMMUNICATION REGULAR ITEM #- 20 AGENDA ITEM: Revise Coniprehensive Plan to Meet Population Targets and Growth Plan SUBMITTED BY- Stephen Wens an, Planning Director THROUGH: Kristina Handt, City Administrator REVIEWED BY: Kristina Handt, City Administrator Emily Becker, City Planner BACKGROUND: Prior to the release of the 2015 Metropolitan Council System Statement, the City negotiated for reductions to the 2040 population forecasts. After the 2015 System Statement was released by the Metropolitan Council, City Staff had anticipated subsequent land use plan amendments to reduce the overall amount of housing planned within the 1-94 corridor urban service districts. ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: To discuss whether the comprehensive plan needs to be amended to reduce amount of housing planned within the 1-94 corridor urban service districts PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: 2015 System Statement. MN State Statute requires cities to have comprehensive plans that are in conformity with metropolitan system plans. The Metropolitan Council approves such plans and has issued a system statement which provides: forecasted population, households, and employment through the year 2040; guidance on appropriate densities to ensure that regional services and costly regional infrastructure can be provided as efficiently as possible. affordable housing need allocation; The 2015 System Statement for Lake Elmo was issued by the Met Council in 2015 with forecasts for the next comprehensive plan update: City Council Meeting 2010 (acti Population 8,061 Households 2,776 Ennolovrinent 1,941 121612016 2014 (est.) 2020 2030 8,594 10,500 14,100 1 2.865 3,800 5,30F K11 Regular Agenda Item #20 -1 Tre-Fro-politant-ounct asatsoVeTermirrult. for the decade of 2021-2030. Lake Elmo's share of the region's need for low and moderate income housing is 508 new units affordable to households earning 809,- of area median income (AMI) or below.

According to Lisa Barajas from the Metropolitan Council, the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan has sufficient land guided at Urban High Density to meet the City's 2030 affordable housing need, but the HDR category will need to be guided for slightly higher densities, from 7.5 to 8 du/acre, in order to meet affordable threasholds. In general, to meet affordable criteria a comprehensive plan needs to: Option 1: Guide sufficient land at a minimum density of. - 8 units/acre to meet a community's total need Option 2: Guide sufficient land at a minimum density of- - 12 units/acre to meet need at 50% or less AMI (combines the two lower affordability bands), - 6 units/acre to meet need at 51%-80% AMI Also, according to Lisa Barajas, as currently guided, the City has an excess of 14 acres of HDR guided land to meet the City's 2015 System Statement's affordable requirement. EEM= The 2030 comprehensive land use plan guides enough land in the rural areas to meet the city's 2040 unsewered housing targets (roughly 3,69 1). The recent change to the OP Ordinance has the potential to increase the number of rural households by an additional 494 units. The recently discussed proposal to guide rural parcels 20 acres or less to Residential Estates might add another 418 rural units (see attached 11/14/16 Planning Commission report — Residential Districts — Allowed Density for a more detailed analysis of rural development density). City Council Meeting 121612016 Regular Agenda Item #20 FISCAL IMPACT, N/A COMMENDATION Staff is respectfully requesting that the Council discuss the need to revise comprehensive plan to meet 2015 population targets and growth targets identified in the 2015 Systern Statement.

Kristina Handt, City Administrator. During a recent City Council meeting, after the approval of the Open Space Preservation ordinance amendment, there was discussion regarding the subdivision of property in the rural zoning districts in to smaller lots than what is currently allowed. The discussion referenced other discussions in the past regarding this same matter. The subdivision of property into 2.5 acre lots is limited to the Residential Estates zoning district, and such zoning is limited in the City to a small area. Furthermore, the Comprehensive Plan guides only a small new area as residential estate. The City Council is requesting that the Planning Connnission discuss the expansion of 2.5 acre or similar sized lot development in the rural districts, PLANNING ZONING ISSUES: Current Minimum Lot Size Standards The table below outlines the minimum lot area (in acres) required for properties within Rural Districts. ITT A RR RS RE 20 40 to 1.5 2.5 Open Space Preservation Developments The recently approved Open Space Preservation ordinance requires a minimum land area of a nominal contiguous 20 contiguous acres for an open space planned unit development. The land must also be located in the Rural Residential, Agricultural or Residential Estate zoning districts. Any property that is in these zoning districts but does not or cannot meet the 20 acre -minimum N requirement through combining with adjacent parcels cannot farther develop as an O development. Subdivision of these parcels would be limited to the lot sues specified in the table above. Such parcels are outlined in the attached reap. The current limitation on rural estate development in favor of OP development is consistent with the current comprehensive plan policy and vision statements: "Encourage the majority of the new households created in areas north of 101h Street north and outside the Village Area to be efficiently developed in a rural context in the farm of Open Space Development cluster neighborhoods." "Lake Elmo's land use plan is guided by its core vision of creating and maintaining a rural community within the Metropolitan region." "The remainder of the community north. of 1 Oth Street and surrounding the told Village will continue Lake Elmo's long tradition of providing rural living opportunities within the Metropolitan area." The new (OP) Open Spate Preservation Ordinance allows cluster development on properties 20 acres or greater. Previous Planning Staff had conducted an analysis to determine the potential number of housing units that could be developed in the Agriculture and. Rural Residential zoning districts under the OP Ordinance when the minimum acreage was 40 acres. The total acreage zoned identified (less 1 % assumed unbuildable) was multiplied by (.45) to determine the number of households. The number of households possible under the old ordinance was 524. Staff did a similar exercise identifying lots between 20 and 40 acres in size have determined that the new ordinance would allow an additional 494 households to be developed under the OP Ordinance, or a total of 1,018 households.

These properties are currently limited to I unit per 10 acres under Rural Residential zoning, or I unit per 40 under Agriculture zoning. If the City were to allow rural properties, 5-20 acres in size, to develop into 2.5 acre lots, as could be done under Residential Estates zoning, the city might see an additional 418 households.

On 9M 6, Lake Elmo's City Council approved a concept plan for nearly 300 hornes at Royal Golf Club, located at the former Tartan Park, south of downtown Lake Elmo. Although it Wa just a concept plan approval, the Council's 4-1 vote allows the developer to move forward 11 t propose a more specific neighborhood plan for approval of preliminary plat Currently the Royal site is zoned for recreation as PF (Public Facility). In order to build homes, the developer will need the City Council to change zoning for this area. To build homes, the developer Will also need the city to change its Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan is filed with Metropolitan Council. The plan lays out land use and zoning based on projections for population growth in the city. The city council is considering amending the Comprehensive Plan in order to allow a high number of homes at Royal with new connections to city sewer and water. [AP'll rol a CITO a I While the idea of a golf-t6ritered neighborhood is very appealing, the citizens of Lake Elmo deserve to consider development that is 1) appropriate in density and 2) limited to the area under immediateconsideration for development, ie. Royal property only. C A= e 0: Ze xlr* the area south of 30th St N and north of 10th St N. The city should stick to its stated plans to preserve these special features, now and for years to come: We oppose development of homes at Royal On lots of less than one acre so that this special area is not overbuilt We oppose creating a new "transitional zone" by amending the city*s Comprehensive Plan See reverse side 2.

M. 3. Proposed Royal development is too intense for this special and environmentally sensitive area that has 21 wetlands, a DNR waterway, three environmental lakes, and floodplaint. This land is not a former farm field. it is better protected by considering much lower clevelopme than nearly 300 homes would entail. I 4. We believe the volume of traffic that nearly 300 homes would bring to this area would have a huge impact that current streets, such as Manning Trail and 20th St., cannot support Potential traffic increases and limitations of current streets should be fully vetted prior to plan approval to ensure road safety and avoid congestion.
