The plat meets all of the zoning requirements including minimum lot size and width, and front,
rear and side yard setbacks. The zoning requirements are also met regarding the maximum lot
coverage allowable of all structures being 25%, whereas the 'church facility covers 12.6% of
Block 1 Lot 1.
Preliminary & Final Plat Requirements - Outlots
The preliminary and final plat shows six outlots on the site plan along with an 8.0-acre Church
campus. As defined in the City Code, an outlot is a "lot remnant or parcel of land left over after
platting, which is intended as open space or other use, for which no development is intended and
for which no building permit shall be issued." Therefore, development is not allowed in these
areas. Stormwater ponds are encompassed by outlots and dedicated to the City.
Outlot A and B includes an infiltration basin to fulfill the City's requirement for water quality
along the northern portion of the site. This site drains northerly to the Vermillion River which is
designated by the DNR as a trout stream. The water quality requirements for this site are
necessary to provide protection of the trout stream. These outlots will need to be dedicated to the
City once the development is determined by the City to be completed.
City staff considers outlots C, D, and E to be acceptable under the requirements for an outlot. No
development will take place within these areas until the outlot is platted.
Outlot F is considered a stormwater management pond and will be dedicated to the City as
required by City policy.
Stormwater Issues
The City staff and the Developer's engineer have worked on the stormwater management issues
on the site. Currently the stormwater runs in the ditch along Denmark to the north along with
overland runoff. The Developer's engineer proposes one storm water pond located at the
southeast corner of the site. From the storm water pond the water will be directed to two
infiltration basins located along the northern property line. These infiltration basins will be
utilized for water quality before releasing the storm water runoff to the north through an existing
culvert beneath Ash Street. Storm water from the church's site will eventually be released into
the Vermillion River north of the Farmington High School property. The engineering staff is
currently reviewing the grading, drainage and utility plans and City approval of the preliminary
and final plat should be contingent on approval by City engineering of the design of these plans.
Planning/Engineering Division Requirements
The following items require revisions to the preliminary and final plat:
1. The memo by Lee Mann, City Engineer, dated October 19, 1998 requires revisions to the
plat and the amendments are contingent to final plat approval.
2. The Final Plat approval is contingent on the preparation and execution of the Development
Contract and approval of the construction plans for grading, storm water and utilities by the
Engineering Division.
3. Submit a Landscape Plan showing plant locations and types of plantings.
The City Engineer has reviewed the Preliminary and Final Plat and suggests that the approval of
the plat be contingent on approval by City engineering of the design and construction plans for
grading, stormwater drainage and utilities (see attached plat review).
ACTION REOUESTED
Approve the Preliminary and Final Plat for St. Michael's Catholic Church contingent on the
following items:
1. The memo by Lee Mann, City Engineer, dated October 19, 1998 requires revisions to the plat
and the amendments are contingent to final plat approval.
2. The Final Plat approval is contingent on the preparation and execution of the Development
Contract and approval of the construction plans for grading, storm water and utilities by the
Engineering Division.
3. Submit a Landscape Plan showing plant locations and types of plantings.

SUBJECT: St. Michaels Church, Plat review
DATE: October 19, 1998
Engineering staff has reviewed the plat for the above referenced project received
10/15/98 and has the following comments:
1. Outlot A does not encompass the entire infiltration basin. The basin will need to be
reconfigured westerly to fit within the boundaries of Outlot A while maintaining the
required capacity or the Outlot configuration will need to be revised to encompass the
infiltration basin as currently shown.
2. The pipe that connects the ponds on Outlots B and F is currently shown outside the
drainage and utility easement along the east side of the property. The pipe will need
to be shown within the easement or the easement will need to be redrawn to
encompass the pipe. Ten feet will be required on either side of the pipe.
3. An easement needs to be shown for the pipe that connects the ponds on Outlots A and
B. Ten feet will be required on either side of the pipe.
4. The east-west dimension of Outlot B is shown on the plat to be 190.00 feet. The
scaled dimension is 180 +/- feet. This dimension needs to be verified and the plat
needs to reflect the correct dimension.
It is recommended that approval of the final plat be contingent on the resolution of the
aforementioned issues and engineering requirements identified during construction plan
reVIew.

10. PETITIONS, REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
a) Adopt Resolution - East Farmington PUD Amendment
Sienna Corporation is seeking an amendment to the PUD for East Farmington to add
two new block configurations to the original Schematic PUD for Blocks E and F.
The Planning Commission reviewed the PUD amendment and recommended denial
of the amendment on the basis of the following items:
1. The original Schematic PUD illustrated 15 to 16 lots per block on the plan rather
than the increased number proposed for the PUD amendment.
2. The economic value to be gained by the Developer is not a part of the original
commitment made by the Developer and the City to the community.
3. The City Attorney has indicated that the Development Contract language
affecting the PUD allows the City to deny the Developer's request regardless of
whether the technical changes fall within the City's zoning requirements.
City Staffhas reviewed the City Code, and the proposed East Farmington PUD
amendment meets all of the requirements of the City's R-2 PUD Ordinance.
According to Rod Hardy, Sienna Corporation, increasing the number of lots will keep
the price of the lots from going up. The benefit will be to the consumer.
Jim Thomas, 901 10th Street, lives in Henderson Addition, and is concerned about the
size of the lots abutting his rear lot line. He stated he will have three neighbors
abutting his backyard. All other blocks have the same number of houses. Mr. Hardy
stated they are not platting in his area at this time, they are looking at the block
configuration. They are looking at ways to handle the issue of current houses backing
up to smaller lots, such as some type of screening or mounding. Mr. Thomas stated
most houses in Henderson Addition are ramblers. Two story splits will be built
behind them, allowing the residents to look down into their property. Mr. Thomas
would like to be notified when the platting in his area begins. Mr. Hardy stated he
will meet with the residents before the Public Hearing.

Page 3
(A change was made in the resolution Amending the East Farmington Schematic
PUD to read: WHEREAS, the Developer has indicated that they are willing at a later
date to discuss other modifications. . .). Council was given two options relative to the
Developer's request. Council could adopt a resolution approving the East Farmington
PUD to allow Block E and F as new block configurations, or adopt a resolution
affirming the Planning Commission's denial of the Developer's request. The Mayor
questioned if Council would be setting a precedent by amending the PUD. City
Attorney Jarnnik replied that with a development as large as this, a provision for
changes has been included in the PUD by stating changes must be agreed to by
mutual consent. MOTION by Gamer, second by Cordes to adopt RESOLUTION
RI02-98 approving the East Farmington PUD to allow Block E and F as new block
configurations in the Schematic PUD and authorize the signing of the resolution.
APIF, MOTION CARRIED.
b) Union Pacific Railroad Communication
The City has received written notification from Union Pacific Railroad confirming
the company's intention to disregard the City ordinance, citing the Swift Rail Act and
Federal Railroad Administration Emergency Order 15 as the legal basis for their
position. Andrea Poehler, Assistant to the City Attorney, stated according to the
Secretary of Transportation's office, the Emergency Order 15 only applies to the state
of Florida not Minnesota. City Attorney Jarnnik will look into how St. Paul and other
cities are going to handle this and prepare a report for Council.
c) Castle Rock Township Comprehensive Plan Amendment
A meeting was held with Metropolitan Council staff to further discuss the Castle
Rock Township Comprehensive Plan Amendment that would redesignate land use
within the township from rural residential to commercial/industrial development. A
number of outstanding issues and concerns associated with this proposed
development were addressed. City staff is planning attendance at the October 6, 1998
Metropolitan Council Community Development Committee meeting to address any
questions or issues from the full committee, not to argue the City's position on this
matter.

d) St, Michael's City Fee Waiver Requests
This item was moved forward in the agenda to accommodate the audience.
St. Michael's Catholic Church requested the storm water management fees and park
land dedication fees be waived or reduced for the new church being developed at the
intersection of Ash Street and Denmark Avenue. The recommendation of the Park
Board was that the park dedication fees for this project be based on the
Council Minutes (Regular)
September 21, 1998
Page 2
CommerciallIndustrial rate rather than the Residential rate. Staff is reluctant to
recommend approval of waiving this fee entirely as other non-profit organizations
may pursue the same type of fee waiver request.
Pastor Eugene Pouliot, St. Michael's Church, stated he is grateful for the hard work of
City staff and Council and asked Council to consider waiving the fees. Mr. Bill
Beckfeld, Building Committee Co-chair for St. Michael's Church, stated he
appreciated recommendation for the park fees. It is his understanding that Outlot A
needs to be dedicated to the City. He also stated, staff is recommending Outlot B not
be permitted to be platted as an outlot since improvements will be constructed on this
lot, and will serve as a portion of the front yard. Regarding storm water management
fees, Mr. Beckfeld felt a precedent had been set by Bible Baptist Church. He
requested waiving of storm water management fees entirely. Ann Nichols, Church of
the Advent, stated they support St. Michael's Church.
Staff said the City had to consider the amount of water coming from the large parking
area. The Commercial rate with the credit is less than the residential rate. The fees
go into the storm water fund which provides storm water facilities for the entire city.
The City will grant an estimated $80,300 credit towards fees. The Mayor stated a
precedent was also set with Congregate Care and that we need to look to the future.
Pastor Pouliot asked if there wasn't a difference between Congregate Care and
churches? Edwin Holmes, 612 Main Street, stated St. Michael's is a big asset to the
community. The pond will be adding water 365 days. There is a big difference in
non-profit organizations. Ron Thelen, 1021 6th Street, asked why not put the credit
towards the Residential rate instead of the Commercial rate? Staff replied if credit
was applied to the Residential rate, the City would owe St. Michael's. Mr. Beckfeld
stated the ponds would be different because of the storm water management. Staff
replied a credit can be issued because the church is building the ponds on their site.
Mr. Beckfeld said the pond is not a nice amenity. It has become a very large pond
system and the church would prefer to send the water someplace else. The church
does not want the pond. Councilmember Fitch asked if the pond could be moved
somewhere else and the church would have to pay the storm water fees. Staff replied
this location is the best solution for developing the site and that the church would
have to pay the entire amount of the fees if they do not construct the pond on their
property .
Mr. Beckfeld said the church has a good relationship with the City and thanked Staff
for their efforts. Councilmember Cordes asked if there was a different definition for
non-profit. Attorney Jarnnik stated an infinite variety in billing systems could be
created, however, as system definitions become more complicated, the system
becomes more subjective and prone to challenge. Current City code does not have a
distinction for storm water systems.
Councilmember Cordes asked if the fees are waived for St. Michael's, could the
Eagle's, for example, come back with the same request? Attorney Jarnnik replied,
Council Minutes (Regular)
September 21, 1998
Page 3
yes. Any non-profit organization could say we want the same deal. We contribute to
the community. The Mayor stated Council would have to evaluate each contract at
that time. Staff stated other organizations are paying taxes. The church does not.
Councilmember Cordes asked if the Council was allowed to waive the fees. Attorney
Jamnik replied, yes, as long as it is not based on religion. Staff inquired if waiving
the fees could be characterized as a gift? Attorney Jamnik replied yes. However, if it
is not a direct appropriation, it is not a gift.
Charlie Sieber, 1995 Enchanted Way, stated policies are not being enforced. Council
needs to look at each entity and at what the church stands for. This would outweigh
anything St. Michael's is charged. How many non-profit organizations have over 100
years of history? Council needs to go back to the merits of St. Michael's. Charlie
Sieber stated the City isn't billed for volunteer work. The church volunteers because
it is the right thing to do.
Councilmember Fitch stated when the next organization comes, how does Council tell
them no? How does Council determine who has merit? Council is trying to develop
consistency.
In review of the storm water ponds constructed on the St. Michael's Church site, staff
recommended, and Council approved, that the ponds on the church site--which they
are required to build regardless--be designated and treated as a "trunk system." As
there is no "trunk system" in the area of the church site, the storm water management
ponds constructed on their site will be acting as trunk facilities. (At the October 5,
1998 Council Meeting, Council requested this paragraph be inserted for
clarification) .
Councilmember Strachan stated the City has good policies. It is a matter of enforcing
them. The fees have been reduced by 75%. MOTION by Strachan, second by Fitch
to reduce the Park Dedication Fee by applying the commercial rate, and apply the
Commercial rate for storm water management. APIF, MOTION CARRIED.

As-Built Survey I Grading Surety - Townhome Construction
DATE:
October 19, 1998
INTRODUCTION
The City has required a As-Built/Grading Surety of $1,500 for new single family home
construction since the summer of 1997. The amount established did not take into account the
construction of attached townhomes.
DISCUSSION
It has recently been brought to the City's attention that charging a $1,500 as-built! grading
surety for each residential unit in an attached townhome building is probably not necessary since
the building will be constructed and the site graded as one building site. It is recommended that
the 1998 Fee Resolution be amended to establish a $500 per unit as-built/grading surety for
attached townhomes that contain three or more units. This results in a $2000 surety for a four-
unit building, a $3000 surety for a six-unit building, etc.
BUDGET IMPACT
None
ACTION REOUESTED
Adopt the attached resolution amending the 1998 Fee Resolution to establish the as-built/grading
surety of $500 per unit for attached townhomes that contain three or more units.

SUBJECT:
General Obligation Improvement Bonds of 1998
DATE:
October 19,1998
INTRODUCTION
At their meeting on July 21, 1997, the City Council of the City of Farmington voted to fund the City's portion
of the County State Aid Highway 31 project through use of MSA Highway funding and G.O. Improvement
Bonds supported by special assessments on benefiting properties.
DISCUSSION
Construction on CSAH 31 is well underway. An initial allocation of MSA funding was received in July 1998
and has funded expenditures to this point. Issuance of the Improvement Bonds at this time will insure
adequate funding for the balance of the project costs.
The bond issue recommended is $2,325,000 and the proposed sale date is November 19,1998. Bids for
the bonds would be received by Juran & Moody on that date and the successful bidder would be authorized
by the City Council at the Council Meeting that evening. The bonds will be dated December 1, 1998 and
the proceeds would be available to the City for payment of the construction costs of this project within thirty
days of the sale.
BUDGET IMPACT
Staff anticipates that special assessments on benefiting properties would be certified to the County in late
1999 for payment to the City with property taxes in 2000. The preliminary cash flow on these bonds is
attached and shows these special assessments as projected for the fifteen year life of the bond issue along
with an annual "municipal funds' contribution. This municipal funds contribution is anticipated to be paid
from annual MSA allotments for the term of the bonds.
ACTION REQUIRED
Adopt the attached resolution authorizing the sale of $2,325,000 in General Obligation Improvement Bonds
on November 19,1998.

the entire principal amount of the Bond at maturity, will be registered in the name of CEDE & CO.

DTC or its nominee as registered owner of the Bonds. Transfer of principal and interest payments
to participants of DTC will be the responsibility of DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments
to beneficial owners by participants will be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees
of beneficial owners. The purchaser, as a condition of delivery of the Bonds, will be required to
deposit the Bonds with DTC.
SECURITY AND PURPOSE
The Bonds will be general obligations of the City for which the City will pledge its full faith and
credit and power to levy direct general ad valorem taxes. In addition the City will pledge special
assessments against benefited property. The proceeds will be used to finance certain public
improvement projects within the City.
TYPE OF PROPOSAL
Sealed proposals for not less than $2,292,450 and accrued interest on the total principal amount of
the Bonds must be mailed or delivered to Juran & Moody, a division of Miller, Johnson & Kuehn,
Incorporated, the City's financial advisor, and must be received prior to the time established above
for the opening of proposals. Proposals shall be accompanied by a good faith deposit (the Good
Faith Deposit), in the form of a certified or cashiers check or bank draft payable to the City, or a
Financial Surety Bond, in the amount of $46,500 If a Financial Surety Bond is used, it must be from
an insurance company licensed to issue such a bond in the State of Minnesota. Such Financial
Surety Bond must be submitted to Juran & Moody, a division of Miller, Johnson & Kuehn,
Incorporated prior to the opening of proposals and must identify each underwriter whose Good Faith
Deposit is guaranteed by such Financial Surety Bond. If the Bonds are awarded to an underwriter
using a Financial Surety Bond, then the successful purchaser is required to submit its Good Faith
Deposit in the form of a certified or cashiers check, bank draft or wire transfer as instructed by Juran
& Moody, a division of Miller, Johnson & Kuehn, Incorporated not later than 3:00 p.m. on the next
business day following the award. If such Good Faith Deposit is not received by that time, the
Financial Surety Bond may be drawn by the City to satisfy such Good Faith Deposit requirement and
such amount will be deducted from the purchase price at the closing and no interest will accrue to
the purchaser. The Good Faith Deposit will be retained by the City as liquidated damages if the
proposal is accepted and the purchaser fails to comply therewith. Except as otherwise provided, the
Good Faith Deposit will be returned to the purchaser at the closing for the Bonds. No proposal shall
be withdrawn after the time set for opening proposals unless the meeting of the City scheduled for
consideration of the proposals is adjourned, recessed, or continued to another date without award of
the Bonds having been made. The interest rates specified by underwriters shall be in an integral
multiple of 51100 or 1/8 of 1 %.
In order to designate term bonds, the proposal must specify "Last Year of Serial Maturities" and
"Years of Term Maturities" in the spaces provided on the Proposal Form. All principal payments
scheduled to be made in and before the year specified as the "Last Year of Serial Maturities" shall
be designated as maturity amounts of serial bonds; all principal payments scheduled to be made after
the year specified as "Last Year of Serial Maturities" and through each year specified under "Years
of Term Maturities" shall be designated as mandatory sinking fund redemptions of term bonds
maturing in the year(s) so designated.
AWARD
The Bonds will be awarded to the underwriter offering the lowest dollar interest cost to be
determined by the deduction of the premium, if any, from, or the addition of any discount to, the total
dollar interest on the Bonds from their date to their final scheduled maturity. The City's computation
of the total net dollar interest cost of each proposal, in accordance with customary practice, will be
controlling.
The City will reserve the right to: (i) waive non-substantive informalities of any proposal or of
matters relating to the receipt of proposals and award of the Bonds, (ii) reject all proposals without
cause, and, (iii) reject any proposal which the City determines to have failed to comply with the
terms hereof.
REGISTRAR
The City will appoint U.S. Bank Trust National Association, in St. Paul, Minnesota, as the paying
agent which shall be subject to applicable SEC regulations. The City will pay for the services of the
Registrar.
CUSIP NUMBERS
If the Bonds qualify for assignment of CUSIP numbers such numbers will be printed on the Bonds,
but neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond or any error with respect thereto will
constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery of the Bonds. The CUSIP
Service Bureau charge for the assignment of CUSIP identification numbers shall be paid by the
purchaser.
QUALIFIED TAX-EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS
The City will designate the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of Section
265(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, relating to the ability of financial
institutions to deduct from income for federal tax purposes, interest expense that is allocable to
carrying and acquiring tax-exempt obligations. "Qualified tax-exempt obligations" are treated as
acquired by a financial institution before August 7, 1986. Interest allocable to such obligations
remains subject to the 20% disallowance under prior law.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
In order to permit bidders for the Bonds and other participating underwriters in the primary offering
of the Bonds to comply with paragraph (b)(5) of Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Rule), the City will covenant
and agree, for the benefit of the registered holders and beneficial owners from time to time of the
outstanding Bonds, in the resolution awarding the sale and prescribing the terms of the Bonds, to
provide annual reports of specified information and notice of the occurrence of certain events, if
material. The City is the only "obligated person" in respect of the Bonds within the meaning of the
Rule for the purposes of disclosing information on an ongoing basis. A description of the
undertaking is set forth in the Official Statement. Failure of the City to enter into an undertaking
substantially similar to that described in the Official Statement would relieve the successful bidder
of its obligation to purchase the Bonds. The City has complied in all material respects with any
undertaking previously entered into by it under the Rule.
SETTLEMENT
Within 40 days following the date of their award, the Bonds will be delivered without cost to the
purchaser at DTC. Delivery will be subject to receipt by the purchaser of an approving legal opinion
of Dorsey & Whitney LLP of Minneapolis, Minnesota, which opinion will be printed on the Bonds,
and of customary closing papers, including a no-litigation certificate. On the date of settlement
payment for the Bonds shall be made in federal or equivalent immediately available funds.
" '
OFFICIAL STATEMENT
The City has authorized the preparation of an Official Statement containing pertinent information
relating to the City and the Bonds, and the Official Statement will serve as a nearly-final Official
Statement as required by Rule 15c2-12 of the SEe. The Official Statement, when further
supplemented by an addendum specifying the maturity dates, principal amounts and interest rates
of the Bonds, together with any other information required by law, shall constitute a "Final Official
Statement" of the City with respect to the Bonds, as that term is defined in Rule 15c2-12. By
awarding the Bonds to any underwriter or underwriting syndicate submitting an official proposal
therefor, the City agrees that, not more than seven business days after the date of such award, it shall
provide without cost to the senior managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds have
been awarded a reasonable number of copies of the Official Statement and the addendum described
above. The City designates said senior managing underwriter as its agent for purposes of distributing
copies of the Final Official Statement to each participating underwriter. Any underwriter executing
and delivering an official proposal form for the Bonds thereby agrees that if its proposal is accepted
by the City (i) it shall accept such designation and (ii) it shall enter into a contractual relationship
with all participating underwriters of the Bonds for purposes of assuring receipt by each such
participating underwriter of the Final Official Statement.
Copies of the Official Statement, proposal forms and any additional information may be obtained
from the City's financial consultants, Juran & Moody, a division of Miller, Johnson & Kuehn,

DATE:

INTRODUCTION
City Staff has received notice that final payment will be made on the FEMA disaster grant from the
1992 flooding.
DISCUSSION
In 1993, the City of Farmington applied for and received a FEMA grant for the reimbursement of
clean up costs associated with the September 1992 flood. The majority of the funds from this
grant were received in 1993 and 1994. To date, the City has received reimbursement of
$268,574, This total includes matching State of Minnesota funding,
The final payment of $48,073 will be received before the end of November, 1998. This amount
represents federal reimbursement of $46,011 and state reimbursement of $2,062.
BUDGET IMPACT
This reimbursement was not budgeted in 1998 and no outstanding receivables remain from 1993.
Review of the audit work papers from 1993, 1994 and 1995 suggest that all funds other than the
General Fund have been reimbursed fully.
Staff recommends this reimbursement be received into the General Fund and dedicated to the
fund balance reserve, as the fund balance was reduced with unreimbursed expenditures in those
prior periods.

Acknowledge final reimbursement of the'1993 FEMA disaster grant.

Petition to Vacate Easement- Lot 1, Block 4, Terra Second Addition
DATE:
October 19, 1998
INTRODUCTION
Todd Prom has filed a petition to vacate the south fifteen (15') feet of a twenty (20') foot
drainage/utility and park access easement on his property located at 18259 Euclid Street. (See
attached legal description).
DISCUSSION
It was discovered by City staff that Mr. Prom had inadvertently constructed a deck approximately
fourteen (14') within the twenty foot easement area (deck permits are not required if the deck is
thirty (30") inches or lower).
Staff has confirmed that no utilities are located within the easement area and that the original intent
of the easement was for trail access into parkland located behind the property. Park & Recreation
is willing to vacate the south fifteen (15') feet of the easement, but would like to maintain the
remaining five (5') feet as a utility/trail easement for possible future trail access into the park.
Consequently, the need for the twenty foot easement on Mr. Prom's property is unnecessary.
Two trail accesses already exist, one at the cul-de-sac of Upper 183rd St. W. (and Everton Ave.)
and other at the end of the cul-de-sac at Everton Ave. (see attached map). These accesses are not
easements and are considered part of City Park property. Another park access may be added on the
east side of the park that will be located along the west side of Euclid Street when that street is
constructed to tie in with Endeavor Ave.
ACTION REOUESTED
Vacate the south fifteen (15') feet of the north twenty (20') foot easement of Lot 1, Block 4, Terra
Second Addition, with the City maintaining the rights of a five (5) foot drainage/utility and park
access easement.

Vacation of Park Access Easement
'ii',-"
DATE:
October 15, 1998
After reviewing the homeowners request to vacate a portion of the park access easement, staff
understands the limitations the easement puts on the property owner. Therefore staff recommends the
park access easement in the Terra Addition be vacated. Staff would request that the remaining utility
easement be reclassified as a utility / park access easement. The Parks and Recreation Commission has no
plans to place a sidewalk to access the open space at this time. However, it is important that the option
remains open to access the open space at future date.

Townhomes & Commercial Final Plat
DATE:
October 19, 1998
INTRODUCTION
City Code requires that developers record final plats with Dakota County within 75 days of
approval by the City Council. Mr. Tim Giles, developer for Glenview Townhomes, is requesting
an additional time extension in order to finalize issues with Dakota County.
DISCUSSION
Mr. Giles is requesting a time extension to record the Glenview Townhomes & Commercial
Final Plat that was approved by the City Council on August 17, 1998. Based on a telephone
conversation with Mr. Giles on October 13th, he would like to provide adequate time for Dakota
County to review the final plat. Therefore, he is requesting an extension for recording the final
plat to January 29, 1999. A formal request is attached for Council review.
Per the City's recently approved Development Approval Policy, a request for a time extension
may be granted once by the City Council during the platting process.
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the request.
ACTION REOUIRED
Approve the time extension for recording the Glenview Townhomes & Commercial Final Plat
until January 29, 1999.

Accept Petition Requesting Bike Jump Park
DATE:
October 19, 1998
INTRODUCTION
Staff has received a petition addressed to the Council requesting a bike jump park.
DISCUSSION
A number of students have submitted a petition addressed to the City Council requesting a bike jump
park. The students are requesting this because they had built a bike jump park on a vacant lot in the
Nelson Hills Farm Subdivision and when the developer discovered the bike jump, it was leveled by the
developer for liability reasons.
Staff received numerous complaints from the neighborhood residents regarding the dismantling of the
bike jump park and requested City intervention in the dismantling of the bike jump park. Staff indicated
to these residents that the City could not intervene in a matter on private property.
The Parks and Recreation Commission was advised of the petition regarding a bike jump park at their
regular meeting on October 7, 1998. The commission will consider this request at future planning
sessions.
ACTION REOUESTED
Council accept the petition from the local students requesting a bike jump park and forward it to the Parks
and Recreation Commission for further review.
Respectfully submitted,

Date: October 7, 1998
To: Mayor and Council
Administrator and Staff
From: Bill Fitch
As I woke up in the middle of the night last night and could not get back to sleep, there
was time to reflect on my job, the council commitment, personal integrity and happiness.
This morning when I was ready to order my signs for re-election I came to a conclusion.
It would be in the best interest of the city and council for me to complete my current term
and not accept my seat if I am reelected. I have been informed that technically I cannot
withdraw according to state law.
The question that most people will be asking and justifiably so is "why now?" .
Over the last several weeks, the Council has been dealing with a development that I
firmly believe has been addressed properly, and maintains the separation of church and
state. We, as Council, have been asked to consider granting what I feel is nothing more
than a "gift" to a private development. The legal and administrative research clearly
shows that such an act would be inappropriate, problematic and would be inconsistent
with Council policy. Council approached this issue fairly, professionally and with an
outcome that was reasonable, justifiable and what, I feel, the community would expect
from its elected officials.
I am truly disappointed that this situation continues to paint this Council as being unfair,
and that certain individuals representing the development feel it is appropriate to act
inappropriately to serve their own narrow ends. In my mind, this type of behavior is never
acceptable, is reprehensible and demonstrates to me that no matter what we do, it will
never be enough for some groups or individuals.
This is a symbol of a growing problem for the public sector where citizens want their
taxes reduced and want the government to be efficient. However, they want the other
person to support and pay for their individual cause. The people say they want a common
sense fair government not politically motivated. In reality they use their political muscle
to reach their own goals and desires. When people cannot get their way the city is made
the scapegoat for their problem. We have seen this scenario many times before and I
believe we have made fair and consistent decisions anyway. Integrity is the cornerstone
of a good policymaker, and I am confident that we have always made the right decision
not the politically correct decision.
Paul Harvey' s quotation comes to mind" self government without self discipline will not
work"
This has brought several questions to mind. Is this job worth personal happiness? What
else could I be doing to bring the same results? Is it worth sacrificing personal integrity
to be politically correct? Do I really need the stress and problems associated with this
undertaking?
It' s a situation with which I no longer care to deal with after my current term. If my
heart is not in the right place I would no longer serve the people properly over the next
four years.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope that you will understand my thought
process. I look forward to your support of my decision.
Respectfully,

INTRODUCTION
The City has received the attached letter from the Genstar Land Company Midwest

Council policies. Representatives of Genstar have been informed that it will be a number

MUSA from the Metropolitan Council. Development of this property will also be
contingent on the capacity issues being resolved at the Empire Treatment Plant.

Dear Mayor and City Council;

Family land holdings throughout the Twin cities Metropolitan
Area. In developing the property, it is the position of the

have any questions, please contact me.
sincerely,
