indicated they would not be able to attend the March 4th meeting, but would be sending replacements.
B. Report on Oakdale Council Working regarding Armstrong Annexation
Mayor John reported at the Oakdale City Council workshop on February 13, Lake Elmo's Resolution 96-3
requesting denial of the Armstrong annexation petition had been received. Councilors O'Hara and
Sarack indicated that their support of the annexation would be contingent upon establishing a benefit to
all Oakdale residents, at no cost to the City. Mayor Pulkabrek and Councilors Moen and Timmerman felt
that the long term benefits did not warrant a worsening of relationships between the two Cities. The
Council decided not to proceed with the annexation request. Subsequently, they (Mayor John,
Administrator Kueffner) were approached by the Armstrongs to see if an agreement could be reached.
Mayor John indicated that any arrangement would have to be equally beneficial to all properties zoned
Agricultural and could not be regarded as spot zoning. Councilor Hunt will present the findings of his
Agricultural sub -committee to the Planning Commission for its review and recommendations.
C. Cimarron Community Coalition Board Meeting
Mayor John reported at the February 15th meeting of the Cimarron Community Coalition Board, the
subject of remodeling of Cimarron housing units came up and concern was expressed over the poor
workmanship done by the contractor doing the remodeling on one dwelling. The work on this dwelling
was performed with a loan from Lake Elmo Bank. Mayor John brought this matter up so the Cimarron
residents could understand that the City has a strong interest in ensuring that their remodeling ventures
are successful. Jim McNamara, Building Official, explained that the contractor under the Ramsey Action
program had not pulled a building permit for the remodeling job, and he would follow-up on this.
5. CONSENT AGENDA:
A. Confirmation of Fire Chief and Others
The Fire Department had its election of officers in January, 1996. To comply with our Code, the Council
must appoint the officers.

6. PLANNING/LAND USE & ZONING:
A. Reschedule public hearing for LE Elementary School
At the request of the applicant, the variance request and site and plan review has been rescheduled to
March 4, 1996 council meeting.
The Council approved the applicant's request to reschedule the public hearing for variance to setback of
parking lot and site and plan review for the Lake Elmo Elementary School to City Council meeting on
Monday, March 4, 1996.
B. Reschedule Public Hearing for Case W96-6 Christ Lutheran Church

The Council approved to reschedule the public hearing for a variance to allow a legal non -conforming use
to be expanded, variance to sideyard setback and the site and plan review for Christ Lutheran Church to
City Council meeting on Monday, March 4, 1996.
C. Resolution No. 96-4:Minor Subdivision:Lot Line Adjustment
Ron and Mary Larson owned the home at 4545 Olson Lake Trail until they sold it a few months ago.
During the title search, it was discovered that a small parcel of land in front of the Larson home belonged
to Ken and Jan Sovereign. A survey has been done and the Sovereigns have signed a quit claim deed
for this property. The Larsons would like this resolved as soon as possible because $4,000 of their
money is being held in escrow until it is resolved.
Administrator Kueffner reported this parcel affects more than just the property at 4545 Olson Lake Trail.
She would contact the affected property owners in hope that they could get together and collectively take
care of this and wouldn't have to come back to the Council one at a time. The County has nothing on
record that would explain why the change was made in the construction of the road (curve was
eliminated) and no change was ever made to the survey.
Attorney Filla added the City is not representing anything about the underlying title to the property. Mr.
Sovereign's title may be conveyed to the applicant, subject to the road easement. We have no evidence
if the County ever vacated that right-of-way or even acquired the right-of-way on either side of the road.
Attorney Filla was asked to look into the petition in the proceeding that created the common line of the
border between Lake Elmo and Oakdale.
M/S/P DeLapp/Johnston - to adopt Resolution No. 96-4 approving a minor subdivision (lot line
adjustment) to Ken and Jan Sovereign. (Motion passed 5-0).

LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 20, 1996 4
D. Berschen Properly Rezoning: Request for EAW
The City received a petition under the rules of the Environmental Quality Board to require an
Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW). The purpose of an EAW is to identify the potential
environmental impacts of a particular project to aid in the determination whether further environmental
review is necessary in the form of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).
Larry Bohrer reported in his letter, dated February 16, 1996, that a review of the mandatory categories for
project of this type clearly reveals this project is not in the mandatory category. A review of the exempt
categories indicates this project may be exempt. It is Larry Bohrer's recommendation that the evidence
presented in the petition or known to the City does not demonstrate that this project has the potential for
significant environmental effect and the petition for an EAW should be dismissed. Bohrer provided a
timetable for the maintenance building to be finished by November 1, 1996.
The Council discussed if a comprehensive plan amendment would be required before it can rezone the
property to Public Facility designation, and this will be investigated by the City Attorney and staff.
M/S/P HunUDeLapp - to postpone consideration of an EAW until the March 4, 1996 council meeting so
residents can present further information for a request to perform an EAW. (Motion passed 5-0).
M/S/P HunUDeLapp - to postpone consideration of rezoning the Berschen property until the March 4,
1996 meeting with the request that the staff prepare answers for the council on a couple of the points
raised concerning the amendment to the comprehensive plan and whether or not that would be required
in advance of the rezoning and any other relevant points raised that the staff should be concerned with
for the rezoning. (Motion passed 4-1:Conlin:I'm not against postponing, but I will not be here for the
March 4th council meeting.)
M/S/P HunUDeLapp - to reconsider the motion for postponing consideration of an EAW. (Motion passed
5-0).
M/S/P Hunt/Johnston - to amend the motion to postpone consideration of an EAW until the March 4th
council meeting to allow public comment and evidence to the City be submitted by 4:30 p.m., February
27, 1996. (Motion passed 5-0).
Counctlmember Hunt suggested setting a workshop at the maintenance facility for residents to see how
well the maintenance dept. runs the shop with the hope that this visit would reduce neighborhood
concerns about the imapct of the shop on nearby residences.
M/S/P Hunt/Conlin - that the staff be directed to set up a workshop for Saturday, March 2nd, 9-10:30 a.m
at the current maintenance facility to review the operation of the facility with any interested residents and
that the staff have someone from the maintenance dept. available to answer questions and explain
functions and direct the staff, at their discretion, notify all the affected residents of the Berschen property.
(Motion passed 5-0).
M/S/P Hunt/Johnston - that the staff be given permission to begin work on building plans and
specifications (type of construction, materials) for the new maintenance facility that when they feel it is
appropriate and direct the staff if they do decide to go ahead to appoint three to five residents from the
area be involved in the site and building design along with one Council member, City Planner, City
Engineer, and member of the MAC. (Motion passed 5-0).
Names of people interested in serving on the site and building design committee were submitted to the
City Administrator.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 20, 1996
E. Site and Plan Review:Lake Elmo Inn
Chris Wichser, Wichser & Herreid Architects, Inc., presented a site and building plan review for the
remodeling of the Lake Elmo Inn.
M/S/P DeLapp/Johnston - to approve the Site and Plan, as presented, for the expansion of the Lake
Elmo Inn as presented. (Motion passed 5-0).
F. Set Joint Meeting with Planning Commission and Park Commission
Dr. David Pitt, a Landscape Architect with the University of Minnesota, had submitted a brief description
on his 1995 Sustainable Growth and Development Research Project. This may be another source of
information that could be beneficial to the City as it develops a cluster or open space ordinance.
M/S/P Johnston/Conlin - to call a joint meeting of the City Council, Planning Commission and Parks
Commission for February 27, 1996, at 7:00 p.m. in the council chambers to hear a presentation from Dr
David Pitt on his 1995 Sustainable Growth and Development Research Project (Motion passed 5-0).
G. Update on Joint Meeting of February 10, 1996
Planner Terwedo reported that the City Council, Planning Commission and developers met to discuss
possible guidelines for a new clustering ordinance. The developers provided six different concept plans
for review. Septic, road systems and 50% open space set aside for new residential developments were
discussed. A joint workshop is scheduled for Saturday, February 24, 1996.
7. PARKS/MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT/MAINTENANCE ADVISORY:None
8. CITY ENGINEER'S REPORT:
A. SWWD Update
At the September 19, 1995 council meeting, Larry Bohrer reviewed with the council the first draft of the
Watershed Plan, dated August 24, 1995. At that time, Bohrer expressed his concern for the impact to
Lake Elmo of two major projects and their associated funding formulae. The two major projects affecting
Lake Elmo property owners would be the creation of a ponding area north of 1-94 for the reduction of
flows into Woodbury and the construction of an outlet for the northern portion of the watershed near the
Woodbury -Cottage Grove border. The estimated cost of Lake Elmo properties within the watershed
district is $1,207 per acre using the estimated costs and funding formula in the plan.
Bohrer has reviewed the first draft, dated August 24, 1995, against the second draft of the plan, dated
January, 1996. Two significant projects which affect Lake Elmo property owners are: (1) Develop
ponding area at 1-94 and (2) Southeast Area outlet and trunk storm sewer. The priority ranking has
changed for the ponding at 1-94 from 6th to 9th place. The Southeast Trunk has remained at 2nd place
ranking. The estimated costs have also increased. The proposed financing formula is unchanged from
previous drafts. The estimated cost for Lake Elmo properties within the watershed based upon the
estimated costs in the draft plan are: Southeast Trunk:$907 per acre and Ponding at 1-94:$300 per acre.
The Council asked that Bohrer comment on the fairness of these two projects and the funding scheme. I
appears that Woodbury has allowed development near what has now become Bailey Lake. Because of
this development, an outlet is now needed. This is the reason for the Southeast Trunk. It also appears
that the size of the pond contemplated at 1-94 will keep the runoff rate running out of Lake Elmo and
Oakdale at significantly below predevelopment rates. This is necessary because downstream storm
sewers in Woodbury will not accommodate existing undeveloped flows for all storm events. It seems
unfair to Lake Elmo property owners to pay for improvements to control the rate of runoff to significantly
below predevelopment rates.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 20, 1996
M/S/P Hunt/Johnston - to direct the City Engineer to attend the SWWD meeting on Thursday, February
22, 7:00 p.m., at the Woodbury Public Works Building and comment on their proposed plans concerning
Lake Elmo's reservations of the scope of project and the fairness in the funding formulas. (Motion
passed 5-0).
Bohrer felt that Oakdale, as a municipality, would have the same concerns as Lake Elmo, such as, the
requirement to restrict flowrates below pre-existing rates and the funding formula to pay for this plan.
M/S/P John/Hunt - to direct the City Administrator to contact the Oakdale City Administrator with a view
to provide a united front on this subject. (Motion passed 5-0).
B. Developer's request for cluster drainfield assistance
Larry Bohrer was contacted by a developer, who would like to develop his land under the new cluster
regulations, inquiring if he could hire TKDA to design a cluster drainfield system. Bohrer explained that,
generally, TKDA is in a review and approval position on subdivisions, developments, etc. and would not
work for developers and the City at the same time. TKDA would be in a position of reviewing and
recommending approval of their own work. The Council asked that Larry Bohrer inform the developer
there was discussion at the council level and the council reaffirmed the general policy that the City
consulting engineer shall not work directly for developers. If a developer would like to petition for a
particular improvement as a City Improvement, then the City Council would deal with that on a case by
case basis whether they want to accept that petition as a City improvement.
C. Olson Lake Estates Pond Outlet Project:Valley Branch Watershed District
Larry Bohrer received a faxed letter from Randy Peterson, Barr Engineering, indicating the contractor
selected for the Olson Lake Estates Pond Outlet Project has requested to move construction equipment
and material into Pebble Park late this week or early next week. This equipment is expected to include 2
backhoes, a front end loader, and pipe and related materials necessary for construction of the proposed
pipeline through Pebble Park. Since the posting of weight restrictions is expected to occur March 4,
1996, Barr Eng. is requesting permission from the City to begin moving equipment and materials into
Pebble Park. A schedule was provided showing construction beginning the week of March 18, 1996
starting with the pipeline through Pebble Park. Bohrer and Maintenance Foreman Dan Olinger will attend
the pre -construction meeting for this project scheduled for March 5, 1996. Barr Eng. is requesting a
neighborhood meeting prior to March 18th to give the affected residents on Lake Jane Trail the
opportunity to ask questions regarding the project.
The Council has not seen the detailed plans and specs of the Olson Lake Estates Pond Outlet Project.
Therefore, the City engineer was asked to invite Randy Peterson to attend the next Council meeting to
present the plan for the outlet project.
M/S/P HunUDeLapp - to approve Barr Engineering's request for their contractor to move construction
equipment and materials into Pebble Park this week or early next week as long as an agreement is
entered into between the City and contractor which is acceptable to the City Engineer, Attorney and
Administrator, addressing restoration of Pebble Park immediately upon completion of the pipeline through
the park, the equipment and materials may use the park only until the site is completed through the park
and that the related equipment shall not interfere with the City's use of the ballfield, including the parking
lot. (Motion passed 5-0).
D. Section 33 Utility Project Proposed Lake Elmo/Oakdale Joint Powers Agreement
Larry Bohrer reported the plans are near the point where he would like to bring in a set for preliminary
review by the council. Because there is some involvement with the City of Oakdale, a Joint Powers
Agreement needs to be drafted which will cover such issues as purchase of water from Oakdale, joint use
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 20, 1996 7
of a piece of gravity sewer which Oakdale will be constructing from the Interceptor in about the area of
( the Crossroads Bldg. location to the East and the construction of the force main along the north frontage
road (By Guardian Angels Church & First & Immanuel residential neighborhood) in the jurisdiction of
Oakdale. Bohrer would like permission to work with the City staff to develop the agreement.
M/S/P Conlin/DeLapp - to direct the City Engineer to proceed drafting a Joint Powers Agreement
between the City of Lake Elmo and Oakdale on the Section 33 Utility project. (Motion passed 5-0)
E. Other
David Screaton indicated he was not contacted by the City that his land was being considered for the
proposed maintenance facility, but had to read about it in the paper. The Council informed him that they
were looking at different areas in the City where a possible site could be by Identifying the advantages of
different sites. Two sites, whose owners had not been approached with a view to possible purchase,
were included in the decision analysis. This would allow the advantages of other sites, located elsewhere
in the City, to be considered. Mr. Screaton's land was one property considered, but the City had no
intention of buying his land unless it had been shown that land in this general area possessed major
advantages not previously appreciated. This explanation appeared to satisfy Mr. Screaton.

Organized Collection, Antennas & Towers Ordinance, Multiple Dwellings

Before discussing this subject I would like to make a few remarks
As a Council, we were elected to serve the interests of all citizens of Lake
Elmo, and not necessarily of those who are before us tonight. From time to
time, we are faced with making decisions which may be unacceptable to some
residents. We will do our best to answer their concerns, and it is not our
intent to present a proposal to the City while meaning to do something else.
Over the past few days, I, and I am sure other members of the Council, have
been approached with a view to taking a particular decision in relation to the
Maintenance site selection. Some say the subject has not been properly
explored, that the site will be used for composting or rubbish storage with
resulting environmental damage. This means that in spite of the unusual
number of public meetings we have held covering the decision making
process, we have not done as good a job of presenting the City's decision as we
might have. Perhaps any decision we make may be unacceptable to some
group.
Resiting the Maintenance facility is not something the City originally planned
to do. But it must be done and in a timely fashion. We would be neglecting
our responsibility to the electorate if we are unable to provide an effective
maintenance operation by the time next winter starts.
I will now pass the subject over to Planner Terwedo to update the Council on
its status.

Mayor's Report February 20,1996
On February 13, Councilor Conlin, Administrator Kueffner and I attended the
Oakdale City Council workshop at which the Armstrong property annexation
petition was discussed. Lake Elmo's Resolution 96-3 requesting denial of this
annexation petition had already been received by the Oakdale Council. In
general there were strong reservations over the proposed annexation. Both
Councilors O'Hara and Sarrack indicated that their support of the annexation
would be contingent upon establishing a benefit to all Oakdale residents, at no
cost to the City. This would mean:
1. Zoning the storage business as commercial, with proper
screening from the adjacent properties,
2. Changing the zoning of the land in Ag preserve to cluster or
RE zoning as existed elsewhere in Oakdale,
3. Avoiding pockets or islands of Lake Elmo within Oakdale
after annexation. This would mean that all adjacent property
owners would have to petition, or their property bought out
at no cost to the City of Oakdale,
4. All legal costs associated with the annexation and
Comprehensive Plan adjustment would be borne by the
applicant.
Additionally, Mayor Pulkabrek, and Councilors Moen and Timmerman felt
that the long term benefits did not warrant a worsening of relationships
between the two cities, which they felt had been improving. They didn't want
to create an image of Oakdale being a land grabber.
The Council decided no to proceed with the annexation request.
Subsequently, we were approached by the Armstrongs to see if an agreement
could be reached. I indicated that any arrangement would have to be equally
beneficial to all properties zoned Agricultural, and could not be regarded as
spot zoning.
Councilor Hunt will present the findings of his Agricultural sub committee
to the Planning Commission for their discussion and review.
At the February 15 meeting of the Cimarron Community Coalition Board, the
subject of remodeling of Cimarron homes cropped up. Concern was expressed
over the poor standard of workmanship employed by the contractors doing
the remodeling on one home. This was undertaken by the homeowner using
a loan from Lake Elmo Bank. I felt it was in the interest of the Bank and the
City, as well as for the success of the remodeling program that this
homeowner's concern should be addressed. I felt that the work should have
been conducted under the supervision of the Building Inspector. I decided to
bring the matter up tonight so that Cimarron residents could understand that
the City has a strong interest in ensuring that their remodeling ventures are
successful.

Re: Second Review Draft Management Plan
South Washington Watershed District
Lake Elmo, Minnesota
Commission No. 9150-960
Dear Council Members:
At the September 19, 1995 Council meeting, we reviewed with you the first draft of the
Watershed Plan, dated August 24,1995. At that time, we expressed our concern for the impact
to Lake Elmo of two major projects and their associated funding formulae. The two major
projects affecting Lake Elmo property owners would be the creation of a ponding area north of I-
94 for the reduction of flows into Woodbury and the construction of an outlet for the northern
portion'of the watershed near the Woodbury - Cottage Grove border. We estimated the cost to
Lake Elmo properties within the watershed district at $1,207 per acre, using the estimated costs
and funding formulae in the plan.
A second draft of the plan has now been prepared, dated January, 1996, and circulated for
comment. We have compared the two draft plans for similarities and differences. The following
is our report:
Proposed Projects
Two significant projects which affect Lake Elmo property owners are:
1. Develop ponding area at I-94, and
2. Southeast Area outlet and trunk storm sewer.
The priority ranking has changed for the ponding at I-94 from 6th to 9th place. The Southeast
Trunk has remained at 2nd place ranking. The estimated costs have also increased. Refer to the
attached Table VI.5.
Proposed Financing
The proposed financing formula is unchanged from previous drafts. This scheme is shown on
attached Table VI-9,

The estimated cost for Lake Ehno properties within the watershed, based upon the estimated
costs in the draft plan are:
Southeast Trunk
Ponding at I-94
$907 per acre
$300 per acre
Lake Ehno should comment on the fairness of these two projects and the funding scheme. It
appears that Woodbury has allowed development near what has now become Bailey Lake.
Because of this development, an outlet is now needed. This is the reason for the Southeast
Trunk. It also appears that the size of the pond contemplated at I-94 will keep the runoff rate
running out of Lake Elmo and Oakdale at significantly below predevelopment rates. This is
necessary because downstream storm sewers in Woodbury will not accommodate exiging
undeveloped flows for all storm events. What seems unfair to Lake Elmo would be for its
property owners to pay for improvements to control the rate of runoff to significantly below
predevelopment rates.
Sincerely,
Latry D. Bo1�P.E.

Second Informal Review Draft January, 1996
I
SWWD is to put more of the financial responsibility on the contributing subwatershed by using
subwatershed financing in combination with watershed -wide financing. The SWWD will further
study the fvuancntg implications of existing infrastructure relative to projects if it can be shown the
existing infrastructure provides a significant service to the watershed as a whole. Currently, the
SW WD considers the existing infrastructure as part of the local system that has been implemented
for local service,
Each proposed project or program has regional benefit along with some local benefit. It is often
difficult to determine the exact split between the two and by nature of the ad valorem taxing
mechanism, there will be some change in the distribution of the taxes in time as areas develop and
their property values change. Table VI-9 provides a guide to the proposed split between watershed -
wide and subwatershed taxing for projects and programs. The projects and programs identified in
this WMP will follow this table unless otherwise specified.
Table VI-9, Financing Scheme for SWWD Projects
Nature of Project
Portion Assessed Against
Subwatershed
Portion Assessed Against
Entire Watershed
Water Quantity
75%
250/0
Water Quality
50%
50%
Natural Resources
250%
75%n
These percentages are given as a guideline and can be altered when a specific project's nature requires
a different distribution of costs. In some cases, as with the natural resources projects identified in this
plan, the "contributing subwatershed" may encompass the entire watershed and therefore the
subwatershed would be defined the same as the entire watershed.
For water quantity projects, a higher proportion of the costs are assessed against the subwatershed
since the subwatershed is the primary area served and benefited by the project.

Re: Petition for EAW
New Public Works Facility (Berschens Site)
Lake Elmo, Minnesota
Dear Mayor and Council:
Additional information has been submitted by the petitioners of an Environmental Assessment
Worksheet. This information was received at the City Hall on February 27, 1996. The
transmitted letter was signed by three of the original petitioners.
The submitted states additional concern for groundwater contamination due to leaking fuel from
underground storage tanks. Examples of five incidents at Washington County Public Works
facilities are given.
The City of Lake Elmo is well aware of the potential hazard of underground fuel tanks,
Underground fuel storage is not used at the existing Public Works garage and it will, not be used
at a new maintenance facility. Current code would require above ground fuel tanks have
complete secondary containment. This would mean that the above ground fuel tanks would be
Set in concrete spill containment basins which would hold the entire volutne of the fuel tank
should aleak develop.
Another concern that was mentioned was public safety where toe Public Works facility dHveway
would connect to 45th Street. Guidelines for intersection design are found in Chapter 5 of
MnDOT's Road Design Manual, Pan 1. Criteria which apply are described as Cases IV and V
enabling a stopped vehicle at the Public Works driveway to make left turns onto 45th Street,
Figures 5-2,01E and F give the required sight distance in feet required to allow these movements,
At a design speed of 40 mph on 45th Street, a sight distance of 530 feet easterly and 650 feet
westerly would be required. This is shown graphically on the two attached prints. As cats be
seen both cases can be easily met.
Other concerns are listed such as noise, smell, dust, lighting, surface water runoff, and
groundwater problems. But again, no evidence has been provided that there is the potential for
significant environmental impact.

Conclusion and Recommendations
Preparation of an EAW is not mandatory for ibis project. The original petition cited concern for
die effects of composting. Additional information cited concern for contamination due to leaking
underground fuel tanks. Other concerns were raised but no evidence was provided.' Composting
is no longer being considered for this site. Fuel storage at this site will be above ground with a
secondary containment system.
It is our recommendation, based on the above conclusions, that the evidence presented in the
petition or known to the City does not demonstrate that this project has the potential for
significant environmental effects and the petition for an EAW should be dismissed.

Mcmbers of the neighboring public have submitted a petition under the rules of the
Environmental Quality Board (Minnesota Rules Chapter 4410) to requite an Environmental
Assessment Worksheet (EAW). The purpose of an EAW is to identify the potential
environmental impacts of a particular project to aid in the determination whether further
environmental review is necessary In the form of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The
City is the Responsible governnteatal Unit (RGU) to make this detemrination.
There are two EAW categories: Mandatory and Discretionary. The rules list 35 categories of
projects for which preparation of on EAW is mandatory and 25 categories of projects which are
exempt. If a project is detemlined not to be in the mandatory or exempt categories, then
preparation of an EAW is at the discretion of the City. The project, as originally proposed by the
City, was a new public works maintenance facility and yard waste composting. This proposal
could be considered under two separate categories: Industrial, Commercial and Institutiowd; or
Solid Waste. The sections of the rules pertaining to mandatory and exempt projects iu these
categories are reproduced for you and attached to this letter.
A review of the mandatory categories for projects of this type clearly reveals this project is not In
the mandatory category.
A review of the exempt categories indicates this project may be exempt. The exemptions for
Industrial, Commercial, or Institutional projects list conflicting thresholds for exemptions: See
page 65 of the EQB rules attached to this letter.
Since the City is both the project proposer and the RGU in this case, the City could decide to do a
discretionary EAW. 'Ilre City must detemnine if the evidence presented by the petitioners or
other persons, or otherwise known to the City demonstrates that the project may have the
potential for significant environmental effects. The information presented in the petition focuses
primarily on the proposed yard waste composting and included information .from the MPCA.
We understand that the City has withdrawn its proposal to compost at that site, therefore there is
no longer any environmental reason to evaluate it for composting. The petition also expresses
concern for surface water runoff quality, loss of prime farm land, traffic, noise and odors but
does not provide any evidence of the potential for significant envirormrental effects.

Preparation of an RAW is not mandatory for thispxojcct. The petition did provide some
evidence that composting may have an affect on persons suffering front rosplratory a01ntents.
Concerns were expressed in the petition for water quality, loss of farm land, traffic, nolse, and

this site.
It is our recommendation, based on the above conclusions, that the evidence presented in the

A. Description of the Proposed Project -
Relocation of Lake Elmo Composting, Spring Cleanup and Public
Works facilities to a location known as the Berschens site at

Cl. Surface water quality would be affected by the Compost site and, to
a lesser degree, by the Public Works site. The proposed site par-
tially includes the watershed districts overlay area for Lake Jane.
All surface water, even if collected in holding ponds, due to heavy
rains, would eventually flow to Lake Jane or to Clear Lake via cul-
verts and natural waterways. Alkaline runoff from the site due to
,the composting concentration, would affect the surrounding land due
to leaching and runoff..
C2. The proposed site is currently zoned agriculture and is prime farm
land and would require re -zoning to a more developed use.
C3. The relocation of the uses, Composting and Public Works, to the
Berschens site would substantially increase traffic, noise and odors
in a rural, residential environment.
C4. over a period of years, if the holding ponds were not lined and sur-
face water and water from the holding ponds was allowed to escape
from the composting site, it could adversely affect the ground water
of the area including the residential neighborhood, Lake Jane wells
and Lake Jane itself.
C5. The most serious effect would be on the residents closest to the
compost due to the airborne pollution including Aspergillus
Fumigatus (see attached excerpts from PCA on composting and effect
it could have on people with suppressed immune systems. Also see
medical concerns of area residents specific to them and their fam-
ilies.).
C6. An environmental review has not been done for this site by Lake Elmo
prior to their proposed re -zoning and should be completed prior to
re -zoning any property for its intended use.

number of days, dependent on the method used. The
rationale behind this requirement becomes clear
upon examination of the pathogen content of
untreated compost feedstock.
TABLE 14
Process for Control of Pathogens in
Composted Sewage Sludge.
United States Environmentat Protection Agency, 1979. Washington, D.C.
A. Processes to Significantly Reduce Pathogens (not the
entire list).
Using the in -vessel, static aerated pile or windrow
composting methods, the solid waste is maintained at
minimum operating conditions of 104°F (40°C) for five
days. For four hours during this period the temperature
exceeds 131 OF (550C).
B. Processes to Further Reduce Pathogens (not the entire
list).
Using the in -vessel composting method, the solid waste
is maintained at operating conditions of 131 OF (55°C) or
greater for three days. Using the static aerated pile
composting method, the solid waste is maintained at
operating conditions of 131 OF (55°C) for three days.
PATHOGENS
Numerous pathogens are present in human septage,
manures and mixed municipal solid waste that are
capable of causing disease in humans. Pathogens
found in sewage sludge and/or mixed municipal solid
waste can be divided into four groups: bacteria,
viruses, protozoa, and worms. In addition, several
pathogenic fungi are also present in composting
feedstock.
Bacteria
The main pathogens of concern often found in
sewage sludge are:
• Coliform species — cause gastroenteritis,
diarrhea;
• Vibrio cholerae —causes cholera - symptoms
include acute diarrhea - transmitted by sewage
and polluted waters or contaminated food and
drink;
• Salmonella —cause typhoid and food infections -
common in sewage;
• Bacillus anthracis --causes anthrax — disease
of hooved stock but spores can be found in
sewage - in man, appears as a skin disease (can
be fatal if untreated); and
• Mycobacterium tuberculosis - causes -
Tuberculosis — from sewage/polluted water —
80,000 reported cases each year.
Viruseg
Data on the survival of viruses in sewage sludge is
less available than that on bacteria due to the
difficulty in isolating and culturing them. Among the
viruses excreted by humans are:
• Poliovirus - causes poliomyelitis, found in
effluents of sewage treatment plants;
• Hepatitis A - infectious hepatitis can be
contracted from contaminated milk, food and
water;
• Adenoviruses - causes colds, flu and pneumonia;
and
• Gastroenterins - causes diarrhea, transmitted by
water.
Protozoa
Protozoans cause many human diseases, including
dysentery. Protozoans are capable of forming cysts
and sometimes are able to survive conditions
unfavorable to growth.
Intestinal worms and flukes
The following worms and/or their eggs are excreted
in human feces:
• Ascaris - a roundworm, can be transmitted from
sewage sludge that is used as a fertilizer;
• Necator - a hookworm, can burrow through skin
and has been found in sewage farm workers in
England; and
• Pinworms, whipworms and tapeworms, present
in sewage sludge.
Ascaris eggs are the most resistant form of any
sewage pathogen. Under some conditions these
eggs may survive in soil for several years. One study
in Germany reported Ascaris eggs to be infective in
garden soil for five to seven years.
Fungi
In addition to the pathogens listed above,
approximately 50 species of fungal organisms can
also cause disease. These fungi are secondary
pathogens — they are not a primary concern to
healthy individuals but will affect people who have
suppressed immune systems. Individuals who have
had or have respiratory infections or prolonged
antibiotic or steroid treatment are also susceptible to
fungal diseases.
A common fungus found in compost and in soil, hay,
wood, and foliage is Aspergillus fumigatus. Results of
recent studies found a large percentage of compost
IV-2
A common fungus found in compost and in soil, hay,
wood, and'foliage is Aspergillus fumigatus. Results of
recent studies found a large percentage of compost
workers tested positive for nose and throat cultures
of Aspergillus fumigatus. In susceptible individuals,
Aspergillus fumigatus can inhabit the lungs and form
fungal infections. Spores can either be inhaled or can
enter the body through cuts and abrasions in the
skin.
Composting promotes the growth of Aspergillus
fumigatus since it is a thermophilic fungi (thermophilic
organisms grow at high temperatures). Toward the
end of the composting process, when the compost is
cooling down and becoming drier, Aspergillus
fumigatus may exist in large numbers. It's spores are
readily dispersed from dry and dusty compost piles.
While it is found everywhere in the environment, high
levels of spores have been isolated from yard waste
compost. Aspergillus fumigatus can utilize cellulose
as its sole carbon and energy source and can
therefore also thrive in wood chip piles found at many
yard and sewage sludge compost sites.
Control
Destruction of most pathogens is achieved by the
high temperatures (1220-1400F) that occur during the
composting process. Figure 20 illustrates the
10
10 4
0 10 20 00
TIME. MINUTES
relationship between time, temperature and survival
of several pathogens.
In addition to high temperatures, the generation of
ammonia during composting could destroy viruses
and other pathogens (ammonia has been shown to
destroy polio virus)."
Another pathogen control mechanism is the
production of a well stabilized pile. A. well
decomposed compost will not support recolonization
as the food supply for the pathogens is gone.
In order to ensure pathogen destruction, it is critical
to expose all the composting material to the high
inner temperatures. In the windrow method, the
areas of lower temperature (outer areas), must be
turned in and mixed with internal areas of higher
temperature. When the compost is not turned, as in
aerated static piles, cold zones and pockets may
occur. It is therefore advisable to also turn the
aerated static piles in order to thoroughly mix all the
material. Clumps of composting material must also
be broken up so they will not heat sufficiently.
Worker Health/Safety
The health of employees at a compost facility is a
concern. The risk of infection in healthy individuals

who work at compost facilities is low. Individuals who
have asthma, diabetes or suppressed immune
systems, however, should not work at a compost
facility. The following guidelines are necessary to
prevent illness:
• workers must maintain high standards of hygiene
such as washing hands before meals/breaks and
before going home;
• during dry weather, the composting area should
be sprinkled with water to prevent dust;
• to reduce dust inhalation, workers should wear
masks or respirators at all times;
• workers should wear safety shoes and safety
glasses when operating the shredder; and
• the composting facility should be located at a
41, considerable distance from hospitals and
residential areas.
Workers should be aware that disease producing
microorganisms are common in the work
environment. In order to reduce the risk of disease,
uniforms should be provided to employees and time
should be given to wash up before breaks and lunch
and at the end of the work shift. Shower facilities
should be available and clean clothing and shoes
should be worn home by each employee.
Cuts and bruises should receive prompt attention to
prevent contact with the waste materials or
feedstock.
As mentioned, a potential risk to workers at
composting sites may occur from exposure to
Aspergillus fumigatus spores, which are pathogenic
in susceptible individuals.
The following cases of work -related illness have been
reported:
• Throat and nasal cultures indicated exposure to -_
Aspergillus fumigatus and one worker had a
serious ear infection caused by exposure to
Aspergillus fumigatus in a compost -exposed
worker study (Clark et al).
• Workers exposed to compost at plants in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Washington,
D.C. between 1979 and 1981 were found to have
an excess of nasal, ear and skin disorders
compared to non -exposed workers. Symptoms
of burning eyes and skin irritation were also
reported more often in exposed workers.
• In a study of workers at a household refuse and
wastewater sludge compost facility in Sweden;
nausea, headache, fever and diarrhea symptoms
were more common than in controls.
Heavy Metals
Metals are essential to the normal growth of plants,
animals and humans but in excess can be toxic.
Heavy metals exist in mixed municipal solid waste
and compost. An additional source of metals in
sewage sludge derived co -compost is the metal
content of the sewage sludge. if the wastewater
treatment plant receives industrial effluents
containing heavy metals, industrial pretreatment is
necessary to reduce the source. It is difficult to
remove the metals once they are in the sewage
sludge therefore, it is advisable to control the
problem at the source.
The metals of major concern from compost are:
• cadmium - ready bioaccumulates in leafy
vegetables, grain products and fruit, toxic to man;
• zinc - phytotoxic (toxic to plants) damage to the
plant occurs before plant tissue levels reach
human toxic levels;
• nickel - extremely phytotoxic, accumulates in
leafy vegetables, grasses and legumes;
• copper - extremely phytotoxic, bioaccumulates in
roots;
• mercury - toxic to both man and plants, toxicity in
plants occurs at .04 parts per million and fatal
doses in man occur at 3 parts per million; and
• lead - toxic to man, does not bioaccumulate in
plants.
Table 15 shows the concentrations of metals in soils
and plants.

SAVE THE COPS PROGRAM
By: David Lillehaug,
U.S. Attorney
The COPS, program (which, by
any measure, is already a
success) is in serious danger and
needs your supportl
As you'll remember, in January
1994 President Clinton, in his
State of the Union address,
pledged to put 100,000 additional
police officers on America's
streets and roads. He recognized
that in the 1960's, this country
had almost 3 1/2 police officers
for every violent crime reported
annually. In the 1990's, we have
around 3 1/2 violent crimes each
year for every police officer.
The COPS idea became a reality
with the passage of the Violent
Crime Control Act, the "Crime
Bill," signed into law on
September 13, 1994. It author-
ized $8.8 billion over six years
for community -oriented policing
grants. The COPS program was
supported by virtually every
major law enforcement
organization in the country.
Slightly over a year later 30,000
additional officers have been
funded. Attorney General Reno
has announced that the program
is "ahead of schedule and under
budget."
Here in Minnesota, I've made
our office a clearinghouse for
information and assistance on
COPS grants. To date,
Minnesota has received $23
million, allowing for the hiring
or redeployment of about 400
officers. Presently our Law
Enforcement Coordinator, Jeanne
Cooney, is assisting dozens of
police chiefs and sheriffs who
have submitted or are planning to
submit applications.
Some of the calls to Jeanne in the
last few weeks, however, have
been politely irate. Some
complain that the grants have
been slowed by furloughs in
Washington. But the greatest
concern is whether the program
will continue.- As of now, well
into the second quarter of the
fiscal year, COPS has no 1996
budget.
Indeed, the majority in the U.S.
House of Representatives has vo-
ted to eliminate the COPS office

DOMESTIC ABUSE AND
SEXUAL ASSAULT:
An Overview of Minnesota's
Crusade and a Grant Notice
Domestic abuse and sexual
assault are violent acts committed
by all kinds of people: enter-
tainers, professional athletes,
legislators and police officers, as
well as by some poor and unemp-
loyed, whose names are never
flashed across our television
screens. But regardless of who
the abusers are, their victims
suffer.
Thankfully, Minnesota has a long
history of helping abuse victims.

and replace it (in smaller
amounts) with block grants to be
spent on anything related to the
"public safety." While the Senate
initially rejected this approach,
ultimately it made its way into
the Department of Justice
appropriations bill. The
elimination of COPS was one
reason the President vetoed that
bill.
It's beyond me why anyone
would want to tamper with
COPS. It's not a tax -and -spend
program; it's funded by the
downsizing of the federal
government. It's not a red -tape
program; the application forms
are a page or two. It's not run
by bureaucrats; the head of the
COPS office is a police chief.
And it's not targeted at just a few
areas; it's nationwide and half of
the grants go to localities under
50,000people. Most importantly,
the new officers have been get-
ting out onto the streets, and
quickly.

federal government. Also, by
undermining the solemn six -year
pledge made by the Congress and
the President through the Crime
Bill, it would reinforce the
sentiment that the federal govern-
ment doesn't follow through on
its promises.
If you're troubled by this
scenario, please feel free to

The proposed block grants
wouldn't guarantee more officers.
The likeliest result. is that they
would pit police departments
against social service agencies for
the same decreased dollars.
But, whatever the merits of a new

the result of a "fix" would be

the commitment of my office

budget crises and two -foot
snowfalls in Washington, we'll

Lake Elmo, Minnesota
Commission No. 9150-960
Dear Council Members:
At the rezoning hearing for the proposed Public Works facility, residents on Jane Road
complained about a drainage problem that had been alleged to have been going on since 45th
Street was constructed in 1984, The properties and owners alleged to be affected are Jaynes
Friend at 9498 Jane Road and Pano Petrellis at 9436 Jane Road. The Council directed the
Engineer to investigate the situation.
Background
In 1984, the City awarded a construction contract to Forest Lake Contracting for the
reconstruction of 45th Street. Julep Avenue, and 47th Street from Jane Road to Keats Avenue.
The contract called for a certain amount of fill soil to be furnished by the contractor. The
contractor negotiated with John Berschens to obtain this soil from the powertine easement which
was owned by Berschens but wasn't being tilled. This area is west of the Friend and Petrellis
property and at a higher elevation. It is my recollection that no property east of the powerline
was disturbed.
Analysis
Since we could not determine where the drainage breaks were by eye, we took some elevation
shots on the Berschens property. The attached diagram shows that about 3 acres of Berachens
property drains west while the remainder drains east, It is also interesting that the west edge of
the powerline easement is about 10, - 15' lower than the east edge of the powerline easement,
The land slopes gradually to the south burmore steeply to the west.
Friend owns Lot 1 and the south 1/2 of Lot 2. Petrellis owns Lot 3 and the north 1/2 of Lot 2,
The drainage runs west toward Lake Jane on the common line between these two properties. The
property owners are concerned about erosion and that the drainage may affect a septic system,
Solution
Since the land gradually slopes to the south, a berm could be constructed on the west line of the
powerline easement to direct the runoff to the 45th Street road ditch. The water would then run
along the south line of Friend's lot to Jane Road. I believe a berm was constructed by Forest
Lake Contracting in 1984 but may have since been overtopped and eroded through. I will be
meeting with the property owners Monday afternoon so I will have a report at the Council
meeting. If tine Berschen's site were s�%�6 9lJL�1➢ i�d'ublic Works facility, this berm could

be incorporated into the other site grading work to be done on the site, if the site is not chosen,
the City will have to determine if it has any responsibility for regrading if erosion has since
occurred.
Sincerely,

RECEIVED
To: Lake Elmo City Council FEB 6 1996
From: Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Dunn CITY OF LAKE ELMO
Date: February 1, 1996
Subject: Upper 33rd St. N. Traffic Congestion/Safety Issues
Concerning a rezone and expansion of the Lake Elmo Inn, we
would appreciate the Councils attention to existing parking
congestion on Upper 33rd Street North. specifically, the area
between the Lake Elmo Inn and the Lake Elmo Feed Mill where
random parking and freight unloading too often cause street
blockage. With 26 additional parking spaces required for the
proposed expansion of the Lake Elmo Inn, this problem will only
worsen unless_it is corrected now
We strongly feel that this issue can be resolved by mutual co-
operation by the owners and residents on Upper 33rd St, North.
Some suggestions:
1) Signs posted on the Lake Elmo Feed Mill Building
indicating:
a) No parking during Feed Mill Business hours
( specify hours)
b) Non -business hours parallel parking only
c) Signs posted on Feed Mill property ( East of
Feed Mill loading dock) indicating no
parking during Feed Mill hours.
( specify hours)
Your co-operation would be appreciated.
Sincerely_
Bruce and Susan Dunn

I have been the owner of the Joshua L. Taylor Building @ 3394 Lake Elmo
Avenue North since I restored the property in 1974[1975. As you know I am
at the soLIth end of our commercial district ("Old Town" on main). I notice
the value and identity the community puts on the "Old Town" from the
Design Team responses.
I want to express my support of the Lake Elm Inn and the zoning requested.
John Schiltz is a very community conscience owner. He is using quality
architects and design people for his proposed addition/remodel.
Sincerely,
Bob Hagstrom

Personal communications services move
closer to Minnesota cities
Ann Higgins
Two FCC licensed companies that
will provide the newest generation of
wireless communications services in
Minnesota are currently investigating
sites in the Twin Cities area for
antenna, towers and other signaling
devices. The League is working to
help cities prepare for what could be a
significant number of new towers.
Sprint Telecommunications
Venture and American Portable
Telecommunications are preparing to
offer wireless digital personal commu-
nications services (PCS) to the Twin
Cities market in 1996-97. Both
companies anticipate offering PCS in
other areas of Minnesota as they
expand operations and install addi-
tional towers and antenna over the next
several years.
The impact of PCS technology on
the national landscape could be
significant. PCS will require the siting
of as many as 100,000 new towers
within the next several years. By
comparison, there are just 15,000
towers now in place for cellular phone
service.
With this in mind, the League's
intergovernmental relations staff and
several members of the LMC Telecom-
munications Task Force met with
representatives from the consulting
firms assisting the PCS providers in
obtaining information about local
zoning, permitting and other regula-
tions in metro area. The League is also
working to help cities prepare for PCS
antenna siting requests. Cities with
previous experience in siting micro-
wave, cellular and other telecommuni-
cations facilities are encouraged to
provide copies of procedures, zoning
ordinances, lease agreements and other
information that could assist local units
of government to site similar facilities.
Although PCS is similar to current
cellular phone service, it must be
implemented in a significantly different
manner. The versatility of the wireless
digital transmissions require signifi-
cantly greater antenna density than that
used by existing cellular phone
services. The deployment and installa-
tion of multiple antenna sites will
involve nearly all cities (as well as
township locations) in the seven -
county area. The consulting companies
representing Sprint Telecommunica-
tions Ventures and American Portable
Telecommunications are expected to
evaluate and identify potential sites.
City officials across the country
are working with PCS providers to
identify city -owned property for
location of such facilities. By using as
much public property as possible, the
impact on residential areas is reduced.
Co -location is also an important
consideration in reducing the number
of sites needed for PCS operations.
Master lease agreements in cities in
other parts of the country have also
provided revenues and access to those
services for city communications and
other uses.
PCS is expected to enhance and
compete with the cellular phone
services that are now available
throughout the state for local and long-
distance phone and paging functions.
According to industry publications,
PCS will offer wide-ranging, portable
and versatile functions including
wireless paging, voice, fax, video and
data transmission. A key advantage
promoted by PCS providers is the
availability of a single phone number
that subscribers use for all transmis-
sions whether they are in the local area
or elsewhere throughout the country.
PCS providers also claim that the
digital technology will provide greater
privacy protection as well as more
accurate and faster transmission of data
and information. r
Volunteer firefighter lump
sum benefit
The maximum volunteer firefighter lump sum pension is now
at $4,000 per year of service. The amount was raised in four steps
of $250 each over a four year period ending December 31, 1995.
Some cities have commented that this amount is still too low and
limits their ability to attract firefighters. It has been proposed that
this limit be increased in $250 increments over the next three years
to a level that compares with the current monthly benefit limit.
Please contact Stan Peskar at the League office, (612) 281-1215 or
(800) 925-1122, with your comments on the proposal. It
