Deferred Items B, C, and D, until 9 p.m.
7. ENGINEER'S REPORT:
B. Cottage Grove Ravine Watershed Plan - Engineer Bohrer referred
the Council to his letter -of March ll 983, which itemized the
information, he believes, should be identified to protect the City's
interest with either a Joint Powers Agreement or a Watershed District
for the Cottage Grove Ravine Project. Estimated cost for a basic
Drainage Plan for that portion of Lake Elmo within the Cottage Grove
Ravine Watershed was $12,500. Whittaker noted that contingency
reserves would have to be used to finance this work.
--Fraser - questioned the possibility of assessing property owners
in this area for a portion of the cost as th
--Whittaker - could assess under Statute 429 or if the property
owners would petition. Not':•pos Uble_ to subsidize the plq_n
through assessment unless the property owners agree,.
--Fraser - more appropriate that the benefitted property owners
contribute to the cost rather than having the entire City absorb
the cost.
--Nder - recommended setting up a special district and assessing
the lands within this district for the study - new Watershed law
provides for this.
--Fraser - would like to see alternate financing approaches.
--Whittaker - want to get the input in before the planning process
is started . If the problems in Lake Elmo are better defined, then
the needs of the City can be better determined in the planning process.

7. ENGINEER'S REPORT:
B. Cott a e Grove' Ravine' Water'shed'Plan - Continued -
t&
-- Whittaker - Note t at Oa da es Surface Water Plan only provides
to control the rate of run-off not the volume. Concerned that
projects downstream will be developed and assessed to Lake Elmo.
Lake Elmo has no problem controlling run-off to Woodbury.
--Bohrer - about 1200-1500 acres of Lake Elmo property are in the
Cottage Grove Ravine - 40-80 acres are in Oakdale - remaining
property is in Woodbury.
--Eder - recommended deferring action until April 15 during which time
the Attorney.&Administrator will research alternate financing/assessing.
--Whittaker - refuted the assumption that because of the size of
the pipes from Lake Elmo under 2-94 that the City may be contributing
to or causing problems downstream and therefore should -share in
assessments.
--Bohrer study would show that Lake Elmo intends to limit its
run-off to pre -development stage. Also, would tell property owners
how much land they would need to set aside to hold the water rather
than put in a pipe to send it downstream.
M/S/P Fraser/Mazzara to defer action the Drainage Plan for the
Cottage Grove Ravine and instructing the City Attorney and
Administrator to prepare alternate financing options for this
plan preparation. Carried 5-0.
D. State Aid Program - Bohrer presented a map showing the City's
12 year State Aid Program. He reviewed the previous problems the
City had with the road and corner designs of .45th, Julep and 47th
Streets.-. Plans to -finish . the �,'modi£ied design -are nearly
complete pending soil tests to establish the pavement and gravel
thickness. These tests are required,with Mn/DOT determined to
be the lowest; vender with anestimated cost of $700. Bohrer
requested Council authorization to have Mn/DOT do the required
testing so that the plans can be completed. He noted this is
eligible for reimbursement as an engineering cost within State
• limits. As_ limits are not always realistic,. the testing
costs may become part.of the assessment. A soil test would be
done on each road. This portion.of roadway was slated for 1984
construction, but.because of the lower construction costs for
Keats Avenue and a larger State Aid.allotment to the City. ',funds -
are available for 1983..construction.
Engineer proposed letting the construction contract in the summer,
do grading and put in the gravel base this fall, and apply the
surface in the spring of 1984. Bohrer further explained the
financial advantages of this proposal.
M/S/P Morgan/Fraser to authorize the Engineer to contract with
Mn/DOT to do the required soiltestingoh- 45th--St., Julep Avenue
and 47th=at:-a cost not to exceed $700. Carried 5-0.
5. 1983 STREET REHABILITATION PROGRAM:
Engineer Bohrer presented a comparative schedule for the proposed
Patch and Overlay Program vs alternate Patch and Sealcoat Program,
for Kendridge Additions, Tabl.yn Park, Bordner's Garner Farmettes
and Friedrich Heights. Bohrer noted that the Patch and Sealcoat
Program for Kendridge and Tablyn Park is about 15-16% of the cost
of the Patch and Overlay Program - this is due to the minor amount
of patching required in these two develoL.aents; while the cost of
the Patch and Sealcoat .Program is 52% of the Patch and Overlay in
Bordner Garner and 74% in Friedrich Heights.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MEETING, MARCH 15, 1983 -4-
5. 1983 STREET REHABILITATION PROGRAM:
.--Bohrer - there is significant patching in Friedrich Heights and
Bordner Garner -, patch/repair is much more expensive than overlay /
repairs, and future repair of ,these streets will be more costly
than if the streets were repaired now with the Patch and Overlay
Program.
--Mazzara - does the City have a plan for the entire City to repair
specific streets in certain years? Believes there are other
streets within the City that are in worse condition than those
proposed for repair such as 20th St., Legion, Layton - is there
a plan for these streets.
--Bohrer - all the streets have been looked at. State Aid Program
covers 20th St., 30th St., Lower 33rd and Klondike, also Laverne
Avenue and Upper 33rd. Have looked at the City and the most
heavily traveled roads, if they met the criteria, have been put
in the State Aid System.
--Whittaker - many of the streets in the Old Village have not been
considered due to reconstruction after the 201 Study.
--Eder - noted that roads,in the four developments being discussed,
were constructed 12-15 years ago--asked'Engineer if there; present
condition is uncommon,.
--Bohrer- problem is not uncommon - difficult to say in this case
whether the streets were constructed too light or if the pavement
was not made thicker> -over poor base material.- poor areas will
break-up first. Restated Mn/DOT's service life plan. Based
on this projection, these street conditions are not uncommon.
--Morgan - asked about using a new process whereby the old surface
is removed and reused.
--Bohrer - would not work in these areas because the surfaces are no
good. Cost of repair work may not increase within the next few
years, but, more of the area will break tip and increase the patching
costs. Also noted, that in the past the seal coat program was
based on need rather than the street rotation program.
—Dunn - streets not -bad enough to do anything this year, based on
the opposition of the residents," these are not collector streets.
MIS/., Dunn/Morgan to delay action on the Street Rehabilitation
Program with the provision that this issue be reviewed next year.
Discussion:
--Bohrer - explained Unit Rate w/o Seal w/patching.in Kendridge Add.
O:aly work, other than overlay or seal, was filling up gravel on
low shoulders and constructing one bituminous spillway. if just
going to sealcoat,would proposed City crew handle these two items.
Then just the cost of the sealcoat could be contracted out -
--Morgan - if this motion. -is defeated; would recommend the Patch
and Sealcoat,Program-,for Kendridge'Additions and Tablyn, and
leave Bordner Garner and Friedrich Heights until residents
petition a project.
--Eder - something needs to be done withFriedrich -Heights.
--Mazzara - Friedrich heights needs considerable work. Would favor
the Patch and Overlay Program for this area. Agrees with Morgan's
sealcoat recommendation for Kendridge and Tablyn Park.
--Fraser - feel Friedrich Heights and Bordner are worse than the other
two and need to be reconstructed. Believe if the work in Tablyn
Park and Kendridge is not done now the costs will be greater later -
cannot see setting up this situation for the residents.
Would favor going ahead with the Patch and Overlay Program in all
four areas.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MEETING, MARCH 15, 1983
-5-
--Eder - need to change sealcoating system so that costs can be
assessed, Use of City funds is hindering the regular maintenance
rotation program when funds have to be diverted for repair of
areas more critical and not scheduled. Regular maintenance/seal-
coating programs are a good dollar investment.
Motion failed 2-3. Mazzara, Eder, and Fraser opposed,
MIS/ Fraser/Mazzara approving a Patch and Overlay Program in
Friedrich Heights and Bordner/Garner Farmettes.
Discussion:
--Dunn - would --like to see the job -done right when the work is done.
Not much difference between the recommended Overlay program and the
sealcoat alternate,- cost too h,ygh.
Motion failed 3-2. Dunn and Morgan opposed. Motion failed for lack
of a 4/5 majority.
M/S/ Morgan/Mazzara to approve a Patch and Sealcoat Program for Kendr
Additions and Tablyn Park, with sealcoating costs assessed to the
benefitted property owners.
Discussion:
-- Fraser - opposed - believes the Patch and Overlay Program will
be the most cost effective in the long run,
Motion carried 4-1. Fraser opposed.
7. ENGINEER'S REPORT:
C. 1983 Seal Coating Program - Bohrer recommended that the City
participa e in the County Seal Coating Program. He reviewed a
map identifieng streets designated in '.:the 6-year rotation program
for sealcoating. He.noted that the areas planned exceed the
$9,OOO budgeted for sealcoating.
-- --Morgan - sealcoating is an area we should start assessing
if the City cannot adequately budget enough money, in order
to do the necessary sealcoating to preserve our streets for
their normally designed life.
M/S/P Morgan/Dunn adopting R-83-25, a Resolution ordering a -
Feasibility Study on the sealcoating needs in the City-, after which the
Council shall consider adopting an assessment policy for sealcoating.
Discussion:
--Bohrer - estimates for Patch and Sealcoat'.Program in Kendridge
Additions and Tablyn Park were based on the City initiating
a program - this would be higher than incorporating the work with
the County. Suggested that these two additions be included in
the County Program, assess- "the cost, which would be consistent
with the Councils, intent to assess future sealcoating, and
use some of the $9,000 sealcoat budget to do the maintenance and
patching required in these two additions. Definitately a cost
savings by contracting with the County., If Council decides to
assess, all the streets planned for 1983 could be completed.
--Whittaker - need to hold a feasibility hearing before assessing
the work. Would be difficult to get this (',bne before the
deadline fori.participation in the County program.
--Dunn - agrees with the assessment concept.
--Morgan - can call an assessment hearing after reviewing the
Engineer's report on which City streets need sealcoating.
Motion carried 5-0.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MEETING, MARCH 15, 1983
6.. NELSON/HAGEMAN REZONING:
Eder offered the following comments based on his review of the
Planning Commission minutes and discussion of the proposal with
the City Administrator:
-Confirmed the Comp Plan provides for this use in the future -
yet, there is alot of R-1 zoned land that is not developing
which makes one believe that the time is not right to change
this zoning to R-1- not inclined to accept rezoning.
- Rural section streets are not acceptable
- Requested attorneys opinion on arguments necessary to uphold
the PZC recommendation to deny the rezoning.
--City Attorney, Ray Marshall - City can deny the rezoning provided
Stated the -there is legally sufficient reason.*xrst=- reasons cited
Amended_ by the Planning Commission would e deemed legally sufficient by
4/5/83 a court. Reitterated that legaffxrr sufficient reason must be stated
in order to support denial.
*not Fraser - appears there is no real basis for denial - Comp Plan
amended provides for R-1 - present R-1 areas.that are not selling does
V5/83 not appear.to be an adequate reason to deny an individual the
opportunity to develop his property. Fail to see a justifiable
reason to say no.
--Eder - feels the Comp Plan is in error regarding zoning of this
parcel. In terms of providing a periphery to the Gun Club, the
City should have provided a buffer zone to step down the density
of housing close to the Club.
--Ray Marshall - failure.to comply with the Comp Plan has been
upheld as sufficient reason for denying a rezoning. This
request does comply with the Comp Plan - plan may be in error,
but applicants are entitled to rely on the plan as it is adopted or
as they believe it to be adopted. Based on what Counsel has reviewed,
sufficient reason for denial has not been evidenced - this is the
critical factor.
--Nancy Prince, PZC Chairman.- stated her position at the last Council
meeting - additional point to consider is that many usesmay have
fit the Comp Plan when it was first adopted in 1979; but ideas
may have changed and do not fit what the City should be doing
in 1983. Feels this property may be such an example to reconsider.
Although the plan was recently approved by the Met Council, it
has been four years since it was adopted by the City. Do not
agree that we would be bound by the Comp Plan for use of this
property.
--Al Borshei:m, Oakdale Gun Club Representative - Club is concerned
about the impact of the rezoiUnq on the Club. Request appears
to be premature consideration. Cited the proposed changes to
the area - area.in a state of f-lUx7, R--1 across the street has
been field in abeyance because of financial constraints on development.
Area:.apipears,to have some severe on -site soil limitations. Club
thinks this is a premature consideration and would impact the Club
and have a detrimental effect.
--Fred Waterous, Oakdale Gun Club - supported Mr. Borhheim's comments.
concerned about the question of noise because of the topography
of the property - would have severe problems dealing with noise
generated toward the east.
--Tom Loucks, Nelson/Hageman Representative - Shared the, same
concerns of the Council and PZC - secured a Comp Plan and documentation
regarding requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and long range
City planning. Aware that the Comp Plan evolved over a number
of years, but the plan was recently approved by the Met Council.
Therefore, this is to be what the City submitted to be their planned
program for this area.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MEETING, MARCH 15, 1983 -7-
i 1
6e NELSON/HAGEMAN REZONING; Continued
--Tom Loucks - Stated Mr. Nelson ha,s two commitments for single
family homes and intends to remodel existing house. Developers
fully intend to proceed with the development.
Referred the Council to Engineer Bohrers memo of March
concerning soil constraints and on -site septic systems. The
proposal is predicated on the fact that this is consistent with
the Comp Plan and consistent with the Zoning Ordinance requirements.
Presented a redesigned layout which provided a 1.8/1.9 acre buffer
toathe west,. No lots exit onto 10th Street. Suggested an
agreement between the City and the Gun Club to provided sup-
plemental plantings in the buffer area for screening and noise
reduction. Overall density is 2 acres per lot. Pointed out
the wet soils and steep slopes areas and how septic systems
and structures would be designed, Reviewed the entire concept
plan and noted all the areas of concern previously discussed.
Site plan analysis indicates it is feasible to develop this
property. The proposal is compatible with the Comp Plan,
Zoning Ordinance and the long range intentions of the City.
--Eder -- noted that the location of Mr. Hageman's proposed home
is such that a decision will ultimately have to be
made as to whether the Gun Club could continue to operate
in the present location,
--Loucks - just asking for rezoning - aware that lot line adjustment
may have to be made - cannot work out details until land is rezoned.
Councilhas'the'author;ty to determine that the northwest lot
is not buildable bacause of nuisance factor created by the Club,
--Mazzara - other Councillors may feel the other -three westerly
dots create a nuisance.
--Loucks - agreed - suggested that the Gun Club might be
interested in purchasing them in order to create their own buffer,
--Eder, Loucks and Nelson - discussed drainage of the site
and lot configurations. Nelson noted that all run-off will
remain on -site,
Morgan - opposed the rezoning - concerned about the incompatibility
of use between the Club and residential property - feels there
should be more concern and consideration for the gun range.
Small proposed buffer strip is not an adequate buffer between
two very distinct uses.
--- Dunn - suggested imposing covenants on the Nelson/Hageman land
to protect the gun club and make future residents aware of the
nuisance they may be subjecting themselves to.
-Ray Marshall - difficult to draft covenants until a preliminary
plat is submitted.
-Dunn - before making any commitment need to get something in
writing between the Club and the developers,
--Gene Hageman - asked if the rezoning can proceed with covenants
and other items addressed at the time of platting,
--Rich Redman - Oakdale Gun Club - underlying issue is the relation-
ship between the club and the adjacent property. Outlined
possible future problems with restrictive covenants, buffer
zone, noise abatement. Technical feasibility of the two uses
should be proven to the satisfaction of the City prior to
rezoning rather than moving this closer to development and
later finding it is not feasible.
--Loucks - developersdo•_not _want a conditional rezoning.
--Morgan - believes the City has defensible reasons for denial -
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MEETING, MARCH 15,. 1983
��
6. NELSON/HAGEMAN - Continued:
--Morgan - buffer is too small; would subject future residents
to a nuisance and a hazard; conflicting uses of land without
adequate open or buffered space - the Gun Club has been there
for years, good citizens, good neighbors, serve a useful
purpose - should not do anything in rezoning adjacent property
that would cause them to be considered a nuisance or a menance.
Would vote against rezoning because the plan is unacceptable
as far as incompatible uses being too close together.
M/ Fraser to rezone 23.41 acres in -the south half
of the southeast quarter of Section 26, to R-1 from RR for
Gene Hageman and David Nelson.
Motion failed for lack of second.
M/S/P Dunn/Morgan to deny rezoning 23.41 acres in the south half of
the southeast quarter of Section 26 for Gene Hageman and David Nelson
for the following reasons:
1. R-1 (single family residentila) is not compatible with
adjacent uses (Regional Par), Reserve, agricultural land, and
an outdoor target range).
2. There is not an adequate buffer or transition zone between
these incompatible uses.
3. This would be spot zoning, given present land use.
4. Soil conditions on the site may not support R-1 development
density.
5. Rezoning would place incompatible development next to the
Oakdale Gun Club and thereby put the now permitted and long-
established facility in the position of becoming a nuisance
and a. hazard to adjacent property - where no nuisance or hazard
now exists.
6. Rezoning would not be consistent with City efforts to meet the
requirements of the Metropolitan Council to decrease the amount
of expansion of 1 1/2 acre lots outside of existing single-family
areas. It would not be in -filling between R-1 areas as we have
:been encouraged to permit. It would establish a new area of
R-1 away from existing R-1 areas.
7. Rural residential zoning is more consistent with present and
planned(:uses for adjacent property especially the Regional
Park Reserve and the Oakdale Gun Club
Discussion:
--Fraser - based on the opinion of the City Attorney that from a
legal standpoint this is not the legal thing to do and the fact
that this action is going to cost the City alot of needless dollarip,
will oppose this motion.
Motion carried 4-1. Fraser opposed.

retain language in the present code and leave enforcement up to
management and residents.
--Mike Ahrens, Cimarron Representative - 2-3 time a year an emergency
situation comes up and a caretaker may not always be on -site (
may be at the store or,doctor's etc.). Current system assures
someone will be made aware of the emergency -same system used by
the City.

orderly, sanitary condition."
Discussion:
