Mann, P.E., Director of Public Works/City Engineer SUBJECT: Traffic Control Request - 203rd Street and Eastview Avenue DATE: December 20,2004 INTRODUCTION At the December 6th council meeting, Mr. Jeff Tilden requested that 203rd Street and Eastview Avenue be signed with all-way stop control. Pursuant to this request, the existing roadway conditions at the 203rd Street and Eastview Avenue intersection were examined to determine if all-way stop control is warranted. The request was forwarded to the City's Traffic Engineer for review and recommendation. The site visit was accomplished on Tuesday, December 14,2004. DISCUSSION Due to timing and seasonal issues, data collected in April 2004 at the intersection of Dunbar Avenue and 203rd Street was used for this analysis. The data collected on the west leg of that intersection is a good indicator of conditions at the Eastview Avenue and 203rd Street intersection. Based on this data, the intersection would not meet warrants for providing all-way stop sign control at this time. Warrants are State guidelines that when met, suggest all-way stop sign control may be appropriate for a location. Volumes observed were low, observed delays were low, and sight distances at the stop sign on Eastview Avenue are acceptable at the posted speed limit. 203rd Street is a minor collector roadway that should have priority over the residential roadway. Failure to meet an all-way stop warrant, combined with low vehicle delays, suggests the existing stop control is adequate for this intersection. Information was collected on vehicle speeds, which showed an 85th percentile speed of 36.0 mph for westbound traffic and 36.0 mph for eastbound traffic on 203rd Street east of Eastview Avenue. The 85th percentile speed is the speed at which 85 percent of the vehicles are at or below. This factor is used by MNDOT and other agencies to determine the speed limit of new roads and whether traffic on an existing road is generally obeying the posted limit. In addition, 38.3 percent and 45.9 percent, respectively, ofthe recorded traffic was traveling at or above the posted speed limit. Based upon the speed data collected and from citizen comments, the speeding issue on 203rd Street warrants further review; however stop signs are not a solution to a speeding problem, nor is speeding considered in determining if warrants are met for stop control. BUDGET IMPACT None. ACTION REQUESTED For Council information. Respectfully Submitted, 'dYh~ Lee M.

CITIZEN COMMENTS Mr. Jeff Tilden, 5314 203rd Street W, requested a stop sign be placed on 203rd Street and Eastview Avenue. He has had several conversations with Councilmember Fogarty and was disappointed with her comment, that it was his neighbors doing the speeding. Mr. Tilden felt the City needed to start the process of protecting the citizens of Farmington, especially those on 203rd Street W. He requested a speed box, but it was placed before the stop sign. He did not feel that was an appropriate place, it should be placed more to the east. He did not know where the process would take him, but he will be here until there is a stop sign on that street. He knows the traffic code says a stop sign is not the way to control speed, but he knows Police Chief Siebenaler is on the record for giving the courtesy 5 mph lower speed limit. Give your neighbor a break. He challenged the City to be the first city to post all of their streets at 25 mph. Be number one, think outside of the box, break the mold, be different. Be the first City in Minnesota to go to 25 mph. He does not care what the state thinks. He cares about the people, the children, himself. He asked others in the audience what they think about the speed on 203rd Street. Mr. Derek Christensen, 5289 203rd Street, stated there is a high volume increase at the time high school students are going to and from school. They cut across from Pilot Knob Road. Many times they are going 40-45 mph. At least his kids are old enough to look before going into the street. Mr. Tilden stated there are some children that don't look. He has heard children should not be in the street, they know that. But children do go in the street. He is here to ask for Council's help to make Farmington a safer place. Let's pick someone from your family and have them hit by a car. The message would be driven home very quickly. He was here as a citizen asking Council to help him, so he does not end up in that situation. He wanted someone to tell him this is what he needs to do or this is what we are going to do for you. Ms. Aimee Greek, 5349 203rd Street W, stated her daughter who is 8 was crossing at the stop sign at 203rd Street. A teenage ran the stop sign and almost hit her. Her daughter is no longer allowed to ride her bike across the street. She has to walk her bike across so if a car comes, she can throw the bike first. There is no stop ahead sign. There needs to be something to make it safe. You should not have to live on a cul-de-sac for your kids to be able to ride a bike. Her daughter is very responsible and went to the stop sign to cross the road and still almost got hit by a car because teenagers were speeding and not paying attention. The stop sign is at English and 203rd Street. Mr. Tilden stated the stop sign helped, but did not solve the problem. A stop sign is not going to do it. It is only for the people who recognize the stop sign. He has offered to pay for the officer to sit at the bottom ofthe hill, he has invited the Council to his house for a barbeque and we could shoot the speed gun at people. He is determined to get something done. He wants to work with Council to accomplish that. He asked Council to tell him what he needs to do to help Council to help the people on 203rd Street. Council Minutes (Regular) December 6, 2004 Page 3 Ms. Ellana Garthune, 5321 203rd Street W, runs a daycare and has a lot of small children. If someone were to run into the street, it would be over. The cars are going way to fast. She has a fence in the backyard, but when they go in the front, she is really nervous. What if a two-year old ran into the street? It is a problem. Councilmember Cordes stated Council takes these comments and concerns seriously. Police Chief Siebenaler stated there have been previous complaints. Councilmember Cordes stated the Police department and Engineering department will review the situation and reply at the next Council meeting. A response will also be sent to the residents. Mr. Tilden stated he will buy the sign and pay for it out of his personal funds. 7. CONSENT AGENDA Councilmember Fogarty noted regarding item 7d) Set Boards and Commissions Interviews, there has been some discussion about changing how some of the boards and commissions are set up. For example, the HPC has 7 members and wondered ifit should be 5 so it is concurrent with the rest of the boards, and also changing the mix of the HRA and have two Councilmembers rather than one. She asked staff to put that discussion on the agenda for the January 3, 2005 agenda. MOTION by Soderberg, second by Fitch to approve the Consent Agenda as follows: a) Approved Council Minutes (11/15/04 Regular) b) Approved Appointment Recommendation Police Department - Human Resources c) Approved Appointment Recommendation Finance - Human Resources d) Set January 15, 2005 for Boards and Commissions Interviews - Administration e) Adopted RESOLUTION R98-04 - Approving HPC Consultant Contract- Administration f) Received Information HPC 2004 Annual Report - Administration g) Approved Capital Outlay - Solid Waste h) Approved Sale of Small Garbage Truck - Parks and Recreation i) Received Information October 2004 Financial Report - Finance j) Adopted RESOLUTION R99-04 Authorizing Use of Eminent Domain Ash Street Project - Engineering k) Proposed Pedestrian Signage - Engineering I) Approved Annexation Petition!

Council Minutes (Regular) December 6, 2004 Page 4 8. PUBLIC HEARINGS a) Truth in Taxation Hearing - Finance The City has requested a levy of $5.849 million for 2005 which is 25.8% greater than the adopted levy of 2004. This is due to the impact of deep cuts in state aid programs in 2003 and 2004 and strict levy limits in 2004. The City added one police officer in 2004, did not lay anyone off and did not cut any services. For 2005 the $1.2 million was proposed to replace the lost aid from prior years as well as to maintain the proforma in place since 1997 with a 10% increase in the levy. This puts general fund revenues at $7.12 million with 66.7% ofthat revenue from property taxes. In 2003, 54% ofthe general fund revenue was from property taxes, and in 2004,58% was from property taxes. There is no levy limit in 2005. The City has levied the amount of money needed to provide services in the budget which includes added positions, and increased expenditures throughout the City. The proposed budget for 2005 shows a 15.6% increase in expenditures over 2004. For the third consecutive year, the City's tax base has increased by more than 20%. In 2005 all of the capital outlay items will be paid for with certificates of indebtedness. They will be paid off over a 5-year period by the taxpayers. The additional staffing includes 3 new patrol officers, 2 promotions to sergeant, an IT specialist, an economic development specialist, a % time building inspector, and a parks/facilities maintenance position. For 2005 there is a shift away from reliance on other revenue sources, to a reliance on tax revenues. Taxes will be paying for the services the City provides in 2005. The increase in expenditures would drop the fund balance from 32.8% at the end of2004 to 28.3%. The percentage the City would like to keep is 35%-40% for future expenditures. The property tax rate went from 41 % in 2004 to 44% in 2005. The market value of a median value home showed a market value increase of7% from 2004 to 2005. Taxes payable increased from 2004 at $927 to 2005 at $1,065. The total tax increase of 15% was half due to the increase in market value and half due to the additional dollars the City is requesting to run City operations. The budget is growing at a rate of 10% a year and the tax base is growing at a rate of 20%. If the budget increases more than the tax base increases there will be an increase in the tax rate. Mr. Patrick Hansen, 5037 Upper 182nd Street, stated he did not get a raise the last 2 or 3 years, health care has gone up double digits, and his taxes have gone up 28%. He did not hear anything about cuts in the budget, he heard increases, property increases, values increased, but he did not hear anything about cuts. He felt the City needed to do some cutting. Everyone has had to cut. Now the City is asking for more of his wages so the City can increase. He did not think this was fair, especially a 28% increase. He stated he lives in Dakota Estates, that is not the rich neighborhood and that is not new housing. There has been nothing said about cutting. You have to cut. Mr. Eric Hagen, 5890 Lower 182nd Street, stated he moved here three years ago and has seen his property taxes increase 9%, they went down .5%, and this year an overall increase of27.5%. He worked for an airline and lost his job. The increases in numbers went from $450 to almost $700 for his taxes just for the Council Minutes (Regular) December 6, 2004 Page 5 City. He also did not hear any cuts. He understands spending money on fire, police and schools. The City went from $4.6 million to $5.8 million which is a 25% increase in the budget. His budget in his household has gone down 10% and it is going down another 25% when they have a child. He suggested the City buy their gas on wholesale, call around for insurance to find the best deals, let's save some money. He is all for more police, but noticed they have not increased fines. He has traffic speeding on his street all the time. He asked where the money is from all the permits. His neighborhood is an older neighborhood. All are retired. They have already done the work, why are they getting hit as hard as him. There is a difference between medium and median values. He wanted to know which was used and how the numbers were reached. He has been hit hard in the last three years, but has tightened his belt. The City should look for ways to decrease operating costs. He noticed the City is hiring, which is good. He is saying look at the raise base. He does not get a raise and the increase in wages for the last three years is 8%. That is less than the gross national product. It is time to tighten our belts. Instead of buying a lot ofthings, buy a little ofthe good items, so they last longer. If the state is cutting money, the City should do the same. Let's come up with something together. Mr. Tom Herme, 905 Larch Street, thanked Finance Director Roland for answering his questions after he attended the school district meeting. He asked some questions of Council and staff. He noticed the state disfavors the City levying the maximum tax and asked why. Finance Director Roland replied the City for 2 or 3 years levied $1 million below it's levy limit. The City was doing a fiscally responsible thing and kept spending to less than 10% a year. The City thought if they took away state aid, the City would be allowed to levy back what we had under the million dollar cap. The state took that away, so there was no excess levy. The problem with 2005, is that iflevy limits are put back in place, that will determine how much money the City can levy in the future for services for a growing community. Mr. Herme noticed permit revenue was decreasing. Finance Director Roland stated that is a conservative budgeting matter. It is better to under-estimate revenues and over-estimate expenses. This includes building permits. For the 2004 adopted budget the City's revenue estimates included 440 new housing units. It now appears we will build less than 300 housing units in 2004. Consequently, the adopted budget is far higher than we will actually receive in permit revenues for 2004. The 2005 permit revenues are based on 350 new houses. Ifwe build more houses, there will be excess revenue. Mr. Herme noted the fund balance seemed to be increasing. Finance Director Roland stated the fund balance between 2004 and 2005 is the same. There is no gain or loss. At the end of2004 there is $2 million in reserve, but if the expenditures are $7 million, it is only 28% of next year's expenditures. The City has to live off that money because the City gets paid twice a year in property tax, July 1 and December 1. Mr. Herme stated there used to be market value limitations, but those are coming off, so the actual taxable amount for properties will continue to increase. Finance Director Roland replied that is correct, it is called limited market value and the state is slowly removing those limited market values over 3- Council Minutes (Regular) December 6, 2004 Page 6 4 years. Mr. Herme stated he is like a lot of taxpayers. There is a lot of growth here and you would think the wealth would be spread across a broader base, but it doesn't seem to be that way. He did not understand why they do not see some benefit of having more taxable properties. Is it being eaten up by City service costs? He has read in the newspaper about the desire to broaden the tax base and have more commercial development. He felt everyone would like to be able to buy things in Farmington. Mr. Steve Wilson, 5342 203rd Street, stated Finance Director Roland's presentation was very well done. He asked why the City needs to have the budget reserve. The average homeowner may be taken aback seeing a 15%-30% increase and then seeing a $2.8 million reserve. Finance Director Roland replied the fund balance is the City's reserve. Because the City gets paid the tax money twice a year in July and December, that money has to last for 6 months. The City makes the money last because of the reserves. The reserves are used to pay the bills. If you have 50% of annual expenditures in your reserve, that means you can fund 6 months of expenditures. You would not have to borrow any money and be able to live off of it. A few years ago the budget reserve was 42%-43 %. Which meant the City could make it for 5 or 6 months without borrowing money. In 2005 it is projected that only 28% of annual expenditures will be held in reserve. There will have to be postponing of expenditures, and doing some short term borrowing. The auditors ask for a 35%-40% fund balance. Councilmember Cordes asked if the permit revenue does not come in as expected the fund balance will help offset those operational costs. Finance Director Roland stated that is correct. If the permit revenues do not match expectations, the City would have to dip into the reserves such as a household would dip into their savmgs. Mr. Patrick Hansen, asked why wasn't there any mention of cuts. He was sure there has to be somewhere to cut. Everything goes up, but 28% is a little high. He asked Council to look at the budget and do some cutting. This is out of hand. Councilmember Fogarty replied for the past three years the City has not added staff and the City has been growing at least 20% a year, which means we have the same number of patrol officers patrolling the streets. We have been cutting along the way by not hiring needed staff. We have had a budget that sat flat while the City exploded in growth. There are not a lot of fines, because the police department has to be reactive. They are responding to calls and do not have the time to do the proactive police work to generate fines. Weare hiring an economic development specialist that will help bring in commercial development for the City which will help keep the tax base solid. Weare making the hard decisions this year so we do not have to continue to raise the levy in increments. This was very hard for Council to swallow. If she did not believe in every dollar in this budget, she would not approve it. Council Minutes (Regular) December 6, 2004 Page 7 Councilmember Soderberg agreed the City has been cutting all along. Staff does look at insurance and everything they can to save. Almost all of the increase is due to new staff. The economic development specialist position will pay for itself in one year if one business comes in. He would have to ask where do we cut. The rate increase averages considerably less than the actual growth in the tax base. Councilmember Cordes stated there is no fluff in the budget. The added positions are needed and will help in the long run. It is time to increase the budget to help out. Councilmember Fitch stated it has been said that the Council does not like to spend money. They have not been able to because they have not had the money. The Council made a policy decision to increase public safety. We will be hiring three police officers. The City Administrator has made a video which is aired on cable TV to explain the budget. He is also planning for the contingencies what if certain things happen beyond our control. We have one of the lowest per capita rates of police officers to citizens. There are times we have one police officer patrolling the City which is unsafe for the citizens and the officer. There are plans to build another fire station at the north end of the City. The Council has approved putting gas tanks at the maintenance facility to buy gas in bulk. As far as fines, when there is a police department going from one call to another, it is hard to do a lot of traffic. When people call for service, people want to see a police officer come to their door. This is an important service. As far as permits, the City did not grow like it should have in 2004 and we took a hit in permit revenues. For the next budget, staffhas been conservative, but we cannot continue to dip into reserves if we are going to be a viable City. The staffhas done a good job with not much to work with. He challenged anyone to look through the budget to see where we can save some money. Finance Director Roland stated after the state took away the local government aid which was $500,000, the City did not think there was anything left to take away. There is still market value homestead credit, which is the portion ofthe taxes the City levies and the state pays. The state could take this away in 2005 and use it to balance their budget. This amounts to $347,000 which is a third of the increase in the levy. If the state does that, we will not be able to hire staff and will run on a status quo budget. Everyone wants something different in a community. Someone wants parks, or cleaner streets, or more or less gravel on their alley. When Council looks at the budget, they try to balance what everyone wants. The budget process starts for staff in May and they look at every item. MOTION by Soderberg, second by Fogarty to close the public hearing. APIF, MOTION CARRIED. The adoption of the levy and final budget will occur at the December 20, 2004 Council meeting. 9. AWARD OF CONTRACT Council Minutes (Regular) December 6, 2004 Page 8 10. PETITIONS, REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS a) Enterprise Fund Rate Analysis - Finance At the budget workshop, staff discussed whether sewer and refuse rates should be increased for 2005 to support the expenditures in those areas. The sewer fund shows over the last 5-6 years sewer revenues have increased every year by 10% all based on growth. Expenditures have increased from 49% to 51 %. Revenues cover expenses from 85% - 100% over the last 6 years. Staff determined revenues should be enough to cover expenditures for 2004 and 2005 and staff is not recommending an increase for 2005. The rates will be reviewed in 2006 to see the effect of the new sewer meters. Solid Waste operating rates were last changed in 1999. There are 5,000 customers in the City. Commercial rates were changed in 2002. Since 2000 operating revenues have increased by 7% each year due to household growth. The disposal charges have averaged 44% of the total expenditures. In 2003 the City began curbside cleanup at no charge. The proposed budget included revenue projects for 2004 and 2005 and showed increased expenditures due to the curbside cleanup program and increased disposal costs. Tipping costs have doubled between 2004 and 2005 for the same amount of tonnage. The additional cost of curbside cleanup puts a strain on the solid waste budget. If Council increased residential rates by $2.50 at each level of service, the revenue would cover half of the $100,000 shortfall in 2005. The cost of recycling is included in the fees. If Council does not increase rates, a flat fee could be imposed of $1 O/household for curbside cleanup whether they participate in curbside cleanup or not. Dick's Sanitation has proposed a change in service to go from a four-week curbside cleanup to a two-weekend drop off in the spring at the Maintenance Facility. Council agreed it was worth the $2.50 increase to be able to continue the curbside cleanup rather than having a drop off place. The Water Board recommended the metered water utility rates be increased by 7%. The rates would increase to $1.07 from $1.00 per 1000 gallons for the first 25,000 and to $1.25 from $1.16 per 1000 gallons over 25,000 gallons. The reason for the increase would be to encourage water conservation and to accumulate additional cash reserves to fund future water construction projects. Council agreed to support the increase. 11. UNFINISHED BUSINESS 12. NEW BUSINESS Council Minutes (Regular) December 6, 2004 Page 9 13. COUNCIL ROUNDTABLE Councilmember Fogarty: There was a great turnout at the Ash Street meeting and staff did a great job. There was a meeting for the master planning of the parks and staff received good ideas. She attended the Vermillion Watershed Open House and received good information. She encouraged people to check their website. She wanted to tip her hat to the EFP AC Committee. There was an issue on the Consent Agenda having to do with annexation and it was handled very well due to good communication with the township. Regarding the open Council set, she would like to fill the position with a special election. Without a special election, the next best way is to appoint the third highest vote getter. It is the next best public opinion we can have. She had staff try to figure out a way to hold a special election with the school election, but due to various circumstances, that would not work. While the state allows themselves to fill a vacant seat in 28 days, they require cities to wait 60 days, and we cannot afford to do that. She wanted to make it clear she holds the same opinion she did two years ago. City Administrator Urbia: Staffwill be working with the newly elected Councilmembers on December 15, giving them a tour and an orientation meeting. He also provided Council with information on the Newly Elected Officials Conference. Councilmember Soderberg urged the newly elected officials to attend. Police Chief Siebenaler: Reminded everyone the annual toys for town is underway. Collections have been slow, but he is confident the City will come through. The list grows every year for people who have a need. The toy drive will culminate on December 18 and will be meeting at 8 a.m. at the Rambling River Center to wrap gifts. If anyone knows of someone in need, he urged them to contact the Police Department. 14. ADJOURN MOTION by Soderberg, second by Fogarty to adjourn at 8:51 p.m. APIF, MOTION CARRIED.

DISCUSSION Mr. Peterson has offered to donate the holiday decorations that he made and had installed on top of his house and several of his neighbor's houses. Mr. Peterson's house is located at 18602 Euclid Avenue. These were the large lit decorations that could be seen on top of the houses when you drove down Pilot Knob Road over the holidays. It is Mr. Peterson desire to donate the decorations to the City because he is moving from his residence. The decorations include four 10ft. tall reindeer and one 8 foot by 25 foot sled. The decorations are made from W' aluminum conduit welded together in the shapes mentioned previously and then covered with strings of lights. A majority ofthe lights are burnt out and will need to be replaced. It is anticipated that the cost to replace the lights will be approximately $600.00. Staff would propose to do this in 2005 and then install the decorations in 2005 at a location that would allow it to permanently remain. Staff is currently researching some possible locations that would allow the decorations to be permanently installed so that they do not have to be taken down after the holidays, stored and then reinstalled for the holidays. Mr. Peterson has estimated the value of the four reindeers at $500.00 each and the value of the sled at $350.00. Total estimated value ofthe donation then, is $2,350.00.

DATE: December 20, 2004 INTRODUCTION In 2001 the National Recycling Coalition (NRC) joined Nike, Inc. in designing a "Reuse-A-Shoe" program to regenerate excitement about recycling and divert waste from landfills. The Nike Reuse-A-Shoe program collects and recycles all brands of athletic shoes and makes them into a material that is used in sports surfaces like soccer and football fields, basketball and tennis courts and tracks. This is the third year that Nike and the NRC have worked with community recycling and solid waste organizations participating in the Reuse-A-Shoe program. Their goal is to work with at least one organization in every state in the continental U.S. DISCUSSION Participants in the Reuse-A-Shoe program are provided with communication, marketing and promotional tools. Participants handle the logistical end of the program, tailoring the collection to fit their own organization. Once an organization has collected 5,000 pairs of shoes, Nike will provide transportation to their recycling center in Wilsonville, Oregon where the shoes are ground up into Nike Grind material and then used to build the sports surfaces. A copy of the Agreement is attached. Solid Waste and Parks & Recreation staff members would like to partner with I.S.D 192 Community Education and School District staff to promote the program and collect shoes.

Mayor, Council Members, City Administrator FROM: Lee Smick, AICP City Planner SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution - Charleswood Northeast Preliminary Plat DATE: December 20, 2004 INTRODUCTION Centex Homes is seeking approval of the Charleswood Northeast Preliminary Plat (Exhibit A). The plat consists of 43 single-family lots and 108 multi-family units on 62.98 acres creating a gross density of2.4 dwelling units/acre. DISCUSSION Planning Commission Meeting - December 14, 2004 The Planning Commission recommended approval of the Charleswood Northeast Preliminary Plat contingent upon the following: 1. The 22-foot wide roadways need be signed "No Parking" on both sides of the roadway. 2. The trail in Outlot H needs to be relocated to the rear ofthe lots on the cul-de-sac. 3. Outlot H should not encroach into Lot lIon the cul-de-sac; the Developer needs to address this revision. 4. The Preliminary Plat approval is contingent upon meeting the requirements stipulated in Parks & Recreation Director Randy Distad's letter dated December 9,2004. 5. The Preliminary Plat approval is contingent on the approval of the construction plans for grading, storm water and utilities by the Engineering Division. The Planning Commission also requested that the Developer continue to work towards retaining as many trees as possible on the cul-de-sac for the single-family homes (see Exhibit B). This may include shifting the cul-de-sac closer to the east towards Pilot Knob Road. The proposed lot depths along Pilot Knob Road are between 136 and 171 feet. Currently, the Developer plans to clear cut the existing tree stand to the rear lot lines on the lots to the west of the cul-de-sac. The Developer agreed to continue to research the retention of trees in this area. The Planning Commission also approved a variance to allow the construction of a roadway to the cul-de-sac on slopes over 20%. Section 11-4-8 of the City Code requires that steep slopes be protected as much as possible from development. The Planning Commission determined that the internal connection of the cul-de-sac to the multi-family area was a beneficial solution to the potential traffic safety issues that arise if traffic was allowed directly onto Pilot Knob Road from the cul-de-sac. Proposed Development The City Council recently approved a PUD (Planned Unit Development) amendment that would allow the developer to include 56-foot wide single-family lots on the western and southern portions of the proposed plat. The property is therefore currently designated for low/medium, medium, and high density residential. The Developer proposes to construct 43 single-family lots with 33 of the lots located on the west side of the site and the remaining 10 single-family lots proposed for the southern portion of the property. The widths for the single-family lots are proposed at approximately 56 feet. The single-family lot sizes range from 6,720 square feet to 13,758 square feet. The single-family lots will have a front yard setback of 25 feet and alternating side yard setbacks of 5 and 10 feet for a total of 15 feet between homes. The Developer is also proposing 108 multi-family units in 12 buildings ranging from 8-10 units per building. The Developer proposes coach homes along Pilot Knob Road and carriage homes between the coach home and single-family lots to the west. The buildings will have a front yard setback of 25 feet from a public street and 21 feet from a private street. The driveway width in front of the buildings is 22 feet. The Developer has provided 20 additional parking spaces throughout the multi-family area for guest parking. Per Fire Marshal John Powers' comments in a letter dated December 14, 2004, the multi-family buildings on Block 3, Lots 1-3; Block 4, Lot I; and Block 6, Lots 1-3 are required to be installed with sprinklers because the access roads to the multi-family buildings are over 150 feet in length. With the installation of sprinklers in the buildings, requirements of Section 503 of the Minnesota State Fire Code will be met (see Exhibit C). Land Use Outlots A, H, J, and K Outlot B Outlots D, E, F, I Outlots C, G 32.7 acres 4.89 acres 2.39 acres 1.65 acres Open Space/Park Future Commercial Area (by others) Open Space Private Streets Existing Conditions The plat proposes a mix of single-family and multi-family uses. The proposed development is adjacent to single-family residential to the north and west and multi-family to the east and south. The property is part of the Charleswood PUD that was approved on November 3, 1997. The property is currently being used for agriculture. The property is relatively flat, falling quickly to the south and west into an existing wetland. The wetland directly to the south of the property is classified as utilize and the wetland to the southwest of the property is classified as a Manage 2 wetland. Transportation The Developer proposes one access from the development onto 195th Street and two accesses onto Pilot Knob Road. Street A is proposed at a 60-foot right-of-way with a roadway width of 38-feet from face of curb to face of curb. Street A will provide connections to both 195th Street and Pilot Knob Road, and both connections will be right-inlright-out turning movements. Street B is proposed at a 60-foot right-of-way with a roadway width of 32-feet from face of curb to face of curb. Street B will connect to Street A and Pilot Knob Road. The intersection of Street B and Pilot Knob Road is a full intersection. The remaining roadways are proposed as private streets at 22 feet in width through the multi-family area and 24 feet to the cul-de-sac in the single-family area. The Fire Marshal has required hammerheads for the private streets in the multi-family area because they exceed the maximum ISO-foot driveway length standard. Additionally, "No Parking" signs are required on both sides of the private streets. The radius for the cul-de-sac is proposed at 45 feet. The City standard is 50 feet. The radius needs to be revised to reflect that standard. The cul-de-sac roadway length is approximately 450 feet to the nearest intersection at Street C, which is well under the maximum cul-de-sac length of 600 feet per the City Code. The Developer chose to eliminate the access onto Pilot Knob that was shown in its original concept, due to concerns expressed by the City and Dakota County concerning the right-inlright- out turning requirement. The City and County were concerned about the need for a median at the entrance to the cul-de-sac, and the potential u-turns that might have resulted from vehicles wanting to travel north from the cul-de-sac. The Developer alleviated the concern by internally connecting the cul-de-sac and requiring access from Street B for those residing on the cul-de-sac. The Developer has also relocated the cul-de-sac further to the east and north than was originally proposed, in order to retain as many trees as possible in the cul-de-sac area. Parks and Trails Randy Distad, Parks and Recreation Director, has submitted comments to the Developer (see Exhibit D). Additionally, the trail located in Outlot H needs to be relocated to directly behind the single-family lots in the cul-de-sac. This will make the wetland boundary location clear for new homeowners and provide a distinctive line between the platted lots and City-owned property. At the Planning Commission meeting on December 14th, an additional trail was approved between lots 9 and 10 on the cul-de-sac to allow a connection from this neighborhood south to the trail in the wetland buffer. The trail will be included within a 20-foot wide storm sewer easement that is required to be platted by the Developer. To assist with off-street parking for visitors to Meadowview Park south of the Charleswood Northeast development, a 21-space parking lot has been proposed by the Developer as required by the Parks & Recreation Commission. Engineering Comments The Engineering Division has submitted comments for the Developer to address. Engineering has recommended approval ofthe Charleswood Northeast Preliminary Plat. ACTION REQUESTED Adopt the attached resolution approving the Charleswood Northeast Preliminary Plat contingent upon the following: 1. The 22-foot wide roadways need to be signed "No Parking" on both sides ofthe roadway. 2. The trail in Outlot H needs to be relocated to the rear of the lots on the cul-de-sac. 3. Outlot H should not encroach into Lot 11 on the cul-de-sac. The Developer needs to address this revision. 4. The Preliminary Plat approval is contingent upon meeting the requirements stipulated in Parks & Recreation Director Randy Distad's letter dated December 9, 2004. A trail between lots 9 and 10 on the cul-de-sac also needs to be constructed. 5. The Preliminary Plat approval is contingent on the approval of the construction plans for grading, storm water and utilities by the Engineering Division. 6. A Development Contract between the Developer and the City of Farmington shall be executed and security, fees, and costs shall be paid. Submission of all other documents required under the Development Contract shall be required. Respectfully submitted, tifz'~ Lee Smick, AICP City Planner cc: Matt Anfang, Centex Homes RESOLUTION NO.

Several of the proposed townhouses are required to have a fire department access road and approved turn arounds. Section 503 of the MSFC does allow installation of fire sprinklers in lieu of approved access roads. Specifically, per my conversation with the builder, he intends to sprinkle the following townhouse buildings as a way to meet the intent of the code: Block 3, Lots 1 through 5 Block 4, Lot 1 Block 6, Lots 1 through 3 The following townhouse would not be required to be sprinkled under provisions of MSFC 503.1.1 exception # 1, however installation of a fire sprinkler system in these dwellings is encouraged. Block 5, Lots 1 through 2 Block 6, Lot 4 Contact the City of Farmington Engineering Division regarding the size of the water service. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. cc: Ken Lewis, Building Official Ken Kuchera, Fire Chief Lee Mann, City Engineer/Director of Public Works Chapter 5 FIRE SERVICE FEATURES SECTION 501 GENERAL 501.1 Scope.

The City's Existing and Proposed Park, Trails and Open Space Plan Map (plan Map) identifies trails in the area that is covered by the Preliminary Plat. While the developer has shown on the Preliminary Plat the location of many of the trails that were identified on the Plan Map, there are two additional trail connections that should be shown. DISCUSSION The Park and Recreation Advisory Commission (PRAC) and staff have reviewed the Preliminary Plat and are recommending that two new trail connections be shown on the Preliminary Plat. Exhibit #1 shows the locations of the additional trails. Both the PRAC and staff believe that these additional trails are important to connecting a proposed parking lot to the existing playground, basketball court and picnic shelter. If these trails are not constructed, it is felt by both the PRAC and staff that people who drive and park their vehicle in the parking lot will take a shortcut across the park and over time wear down the vegetation, which will eventually allow the soil to erode away. It is believed that people will not take the longer loop to the south from the parking lot in order to access the park amenities. ACTION REQUESTED A request is being made of the Planning Commission members to approve the Charleswood Northeast Preliminary Plat on the condition that the additional trail connections that are shown in Exhibit #1 be shown on the Preliminary Plat. ~tful.lY Surr~LL (i /.L-:/ O' ~/ t:~d' .

CITY OF FARMINGTON By: Lacelle Cordes, Acting Mayor Attest: SEAL By: David M. Urbia City Administrator 12 SCHEDULE A COMPREHENSIVE STORM DRAINAGE PLAN POLICY FOR DEVELOPMENTIREDEVELOPMENT OF PROPERTY BACKGROUND STATEMENT The Municipal Storm Sewer utilizes a fee structure for storm water improvements based on anticipated development. A parcel's contribution is determined by size and land use under the principal that a parcel should pay for past, present and future storm sewer improvements necessary to meet the needs of the parcel. The fees are set forth in the Comprehensive Storm Drainage Plan dated September, 1985 as updated (Storm Water Area) and policy dated September, 1989 (Storm Water Utility). Storm water utility fees are based on size and land use on the basis that more intense land use pay a higher fee. Utility fees are paid by all developed property on a quarterly basis. Storm water area charges are paid at the time of development to help offset storm water improvements associated with the development of the property and are based by land use on a per acre rate. Presently, the Storm Water Area Charges only address developments associated with platting. Therefore, a policy is required which addresses development not associated with platting. When adopted, this policy will be incorporated as part of the Farmington Storm Water Drainage Plan. POLICY STATEMENT The purpose of this policy is to set forth the basis of fees and charges relating to past, present and future storm water improvements necessary to serve anticipated land use for development activities not related to the platting of property. AFFECTED DEVELOPMENTS A. A Storm Water Area Charge shall be paid before any building or development permits are approved, or before any improvements are made to a City owned park, which significantly affects stormwater runoff. B. Storm Water Area Charges are not required for the following activities: 1. Building permits on platted property. 2. Residential or agricultural accessory structures or additions. PROCEDURE A. It is the responsibility of the property owner or his agent to present to the City Engineer or his designee the following information: 1. Site plan showing location of all existing and proposed buildings and other developments relative to property lines. B. The City Engineer shall calculate the Storm Water Area Charge as follows: 1. Undeveloped Property a. The Engineer shall determine the area of development upon review of the site plan. The following minimum areas shall apply: 14 Residential Commercial Industrial C-1, F-1, F-2, F-3 10,000 square feet lO,OOO square feet 40,000 square feet 80,000 square feet b. The Engineer shall multiply the estimated area by the rate set forth in Table 3 of the Farmington Storm Drainage Plan as amended. 2. Redevelopment a. The Engineer shall determine the area of development and change in land use upon review of the site plan. The following minimum areas shall apply: Residential Commercial Industrial C-l, F-l, F-2, F-3 10,000 square feet 10,000 square feet 40,000 square feet 80,000 square feet b. Ifit is determined there is no change in land use classification as described in Table 3 of the Farmington Storm Water Drainage Plan, and the property has previously been charged the storm water area charge, no fee is to be charged. c. If it is determined there is a change in land use, the fee shall be calculated as follows: Area x (Existing Land Use Rate - Proposed Land Use Rate) = Fee If the fee is less than $0.00, no fee will be charged. 15 SCHEDULE B WATER SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION PLAN FOR UNPLATTED PROPERTY BACKGROUND STATEMENT The Municipal Water Utility utilizes a fee structure for water supply and distribution improvements based on anticipated development. A parcel's contribution is determined by the parcel's size and land use under the principal that a parcel should pay for past, present and future water system improvements necessary to meet the anticipated water needs of the parcel. The fee schedule set forth in the Farmington Water Supply and Distribution Plan dated June, 1988 as updated sets forth charges for water area and water hookups. The water connection fee is primarily used for present and future pumping and storage capacity and is based on type of land use. The water area charge is primarily used for past, present and future oversizing of mains and is set at a uniform per acre rate for future development. Also, the water area charge presently only addresses development associated with the platting of property. Therefore, a policy is required which sets forth fees for development not associated with platting. When adopted, this policy will be incorporated as part of the Farmington Water Distribution and Supply Plan. POLICY STATEMENT The purpose of this policy is to set forth the basis of fees and charges relating to past, present and future improvements necessary to serve anticipated land use for development activities not related to the development of property. AFFECTED DEVELOPMENTS A. A water area charge shall be paid before any building permit is approved, unless specifically exempted under Section B. B. Water Area Charges for the following activities are not required: 1. Any building permits on platted property, except buildings on parkland platted after Jan. 1, 1995. 2. Residential or agricultural accessory structures. PROCEDURE A. It is the responsibility of the property owner or his agent to present to the City Engineer or his designee the following information: 1. Site plan showing location of all existing and proposed buildings and other development relative to property lines. B. The City Engineer shall calculate the water area charge as follows: 1. The Engineer shall determine the area of development upon review of the site plan. The following minimum areas shall apply: Residential Commercial Industrial C-l, F-l, F-2, F-3 10,000 square feet 10,000 square feet 10,000 square feet 80,000 square feet 2. The Engineer shall multiply the estimated area by the rate set forth in Table 14 of the Farmington Water Supply and Distribution Plan dated June, 1988 as amended. 16 SCHEDULE C APPENDIX A Solid Waste User Fee Schedule Solid Waste Rates 30 gallons.....................,......... $~2,OO/quarter 60 gallons............................... $~51.00/quarter 90 gallons............................... $~60.00/quarter 120 gallons............................. $71.50/quarter 150 gallons............................. $80.50/quarter 180 gallons............................. $89.50/quarter 210 gallons............................. $1 03.50/quarter 240 gallons............................. $112.50/quarter 270 gallons............................. $121.50/quarter 300 gallons............................. $ 155.00/qtr x pickups/wk 600 gallons............................. $273.00/qtr x pickups/wk 900 gallons............................. $391.00/qtr x pickups/wk 1200 gallons........................... $509.00/qtr x pickups/wk 1500 gallons........................... $627.00/qtr x pickups/wk 1800 gallons........................... $745.00/qtr x pickups/wk Sports Tournaments (300 gallon container delivery included to one site $25.00 delivery charge per each additional site) $25.00 per site 1-20 teams $120.00 21-26 teams $180,00 61-90 teams $240,00 90 teams or more will be addressed on an individual basis $50.00 per hour additional labor charge if more than one dumping of garbage is required plus $20.00 per container dumped Special Pickups pass on charges from contractor per agreement Out of Cab Charge Staff Time $5.00/stop $40.00/hour - 1/2 hour minimum Curbside Recycling Services per contract Return Collection Trip Charge (90 gallons or less) Return Collection Trip Charge (300 gallons or more) $7.50/trip/container $20.00/trip/container EXTRA BAG CHARGE (lids that do not appear to be closed or additional garbage deposited by customers at the time of collection.) 1-2 bags per occur. -- no charge-residential 3+ bags per occur.--$3.00/bag-$9.00 min. $6.00 per occurence-commercial/300 gal.

In exchange for the payment of the sanitary sewer line extension, the City agreed to reimburse the FYHA for the costs of extending the sanitary sewer line to the warming house by including these costs in a park bond referendum. However, the park bond referendum was never voted on by City residents. I have attached the Agreement (Exhibit A) that the City and FYHA entered into on June 23, 1997. DISCUSSION The FYHA first approached City staff in October 2003 and then the Park and Recreation Advisory Commission (PRAC) at its November 2003 meeting about the City repaying FYHA $25,226.52 or the cost to extend the sanitary sewer to the warming house. At that time the PRAC directed staffto work with the FYHA to draft an Agreement that would identify how the $25,226.52 could be repaid. The first meeting to begin drafting the Agreement occurred in December 2003. In February 2004, City Council members were solicited individually for input on their thoughts about moving forward with this Agreement. Individually City Council members weighed in on the request and based on the feedback received, it appeared that City Council members supported the drafting of an Agreement. Throughout 2004 the Agreement was reviewed numerous times by both City staff and FYHA. Through the course of these reviews, many revisions were made to the Agreement. Finally, in November 2004, the FYHA communicated to staff that they were satisfied with the Agreement. The Agreement was then brought to the December 8, 2004 PRAC meeting for review and approval. The PRAC unanimously approved the Agreement and recommended that the City Council approve the Agreement. Attached with this memo is the Agreement that was approved by the PRAC at its December 8th meeting. Some of the key points identified in the Agreement are as follows: 1. The Agreement is for a period of 15 years and the FYHA is asking for their current concession stand annual lease payment of $1 ,500.00 owed to the City to be applied against the $25,226.52 that it cost to pay for the sewer line. This amount applied over 15 years results in the City repaying FYHA $22,500.00. While this is not the same amount as what it cost to construct the sewer line, FYHA is satisfied with this amount as repayment. 2. The Agreement will be opened back up for discussion about the possibility of applying this Agreement towards any new ice facility that might be built in the next 14 years (the lease payment was not made for the previous ice season and so it will now only be 14 years worth of payments) 3. Identifies and clarifies concession stand obligations that the FYHA will now be accountable for including acquiring any permits, cleanliness, opening and closing requirements, scheduling of workers, assist with paying for some of the utilities associated with operating the concession stand and equipment repair and maintenance. 4. Identifies a procedure on the sub-leasing of the concession stand should the FYHA desire not to open the concession stand for events other than for hockey games and/or tournaments. In this situation, the City has first right of refusal should it so desire to open the concession stand if the FYHA is not interested in doing so. If the City is not interested in operating the concession stand, then the FYHA can sublease it to another organization. 5. Identifies and clarifies concession stand obligations that the City will be accountable for including such things as providing garbage containers to FYHA at no cost, keeping the area outside the concession stand clean and disposal of concession stand equipment that the City currently owns but agrees to allow the FYHA to use at no cost. 6. In addition to the Agreement covering the indoor ice arena, it also covers outdoor rinks including FYHA storing equipment at the warming house, FYHA access to the warming house, when FYHA has exclusive use of the outdoor hockey rinks, when the public has access to the hockey rinks for open skating, snow removal, flooding, City responsibility to supervise the warming house during scheduled hours and some general time lines for when the outdoor ice season will open for skating and when outdoor ice season will end. 7. Identifies City insurance requirements that FYHA will need to meet and provide proof of. 8. Identifies the condition upon which the Agreement could be terminated. BUDGET IMPACT The obvious budget impact is the loss of revenue in the amount of$I,500.00 annually that is paid by FYHA to the City as annual lease payment. However, staff members believe that the loss of this revenue could be made up either through increasing the annual liquor store profit transfer by $1,500.00 to the Arena, or through selling more advertisements at the Arena. Either one or a combination of both could offset the loss of this revenue that is currently generated from the concession stand lease payment from FYHA.

Mann, P.E., Director of Public Works/City Engineer SUBJECT: Wetland Buffer Issue - Update DATE: December 20,2004 INTRODUCTION At the October 18th City Council meeting, Mr. Michael Pierce, 5137 203rd Street West (Middle Creek 5th Addition), requested that the City Council vacate the drainage and utility easement (which contains a wetland buffer) behind his home. He has indicated that he was not aware of the buffer when he bought his property and he has less usable space than he thought he had. DISCUSSION Pursuant to the November 15th City Council meeting, staff has met with the Department of Natural Resources, the Soil and Water Conservation District and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency to discuss the wetland buffer issue and whether or not there is a way to address any of the property owner's issues and still provide adequate protection to the wetlands. There were several ideas that came out of that meeting that required staff to perform some analysis on a lot by lot basis to quantify the effect of those ideas. Staff has completed the analysis and at this time would recommend that the Council schedule a discussion of this issue at a future workshop. Potential options to addressing the issues involve some procedural complexities that most likely will warrant discussion at some length. BUDGET IMPACT None at this time. ACTION REQUESTED Consider including an agenda item regarding the Wetland Buffer issue on the next Council workshop. Respectfully Submitted, ~)IY{ ~ Lee M. Mann, P .E.

DISCUSSION This subject has been discussed at several prior City Council meetings. The latest development is the issuance of a written opinion by the Administrative Law Judge [ALJ] who presided at the public hearings that were held in October. Please refer to the attached e-mail for additional background information, and for a proposed course of action. I have also attached a map that depicts (in yellow) the route that has been recommended by the ALJ. I have attached, for reference, a copy of the letter that the City sent to the ALJ shortly after the public hearings. ACTION REQUESTED Discuss the ALJ's recommendation and provide guidance to City staff regarding the future handling of this matter. Kevin Carroll rom: ent: To: Cc: Subject: Kevin C Mond ,December 13, 20 410:47 PM FA Ma , A Council Members Lee Smick; Jim Atkinson; Tim Gross Great River Energy Transmission Line Issue As you may recall, the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board [MEQB] will ultimately determine the route that will be used for the new high voltage transmission line that Great River Energy [GRE] and Dakota Electric Association [DEA] plan to construct through Farmington. Several months ago, the MEQB requested that an Administrative Law Judge [ALJ] conduct public hearings and compile a record (including a "Summary of Evidence" and a "Recommendation") for the MEQB to consider in making its decision. The hearings were conducted at 2 p.m. and 7 p,m. on October 11, 2004. The ALJ's 31-page written report was posted on the MEQB web site today. The entire report can be found at http://www.eab.state.mn.us/pdf/FileReQister/AirLake-Empire/JudQesReport.pdfifyou.reinterested. The bad news: For the portion of the transmission line that will go from Akin Road to Highway 3, the ALJ did not recommend the route that GRE had initially proposed and that the City had publicly endorsed (that is, the route through the Giles and Rother properties). The ALJ recommended that the MEQB approve a modified version of an alternate route that was submitted by Jerry Rother. The ALJ refers to this as the "Adaptation Alternative." Under this alternative, the new line would run straight east from a new Vermillion River Substation (to be built just east of the Industrial Park and just north of Northern Natural Gas) to Akin Road, where it would cross the road and go south along the east side of Akin for about 700 feet. The line would then turn east again, running just south of the ISD 192 property and just north of Rambling River Park. The line would cross the Vermillion River and cut through the City Center parking lot, south of Pellicci Hardware and north of EconoFoods. It would cross the railroad tracks, go through the Eagle's Club parking lot, and then follow the old railroad right-of-way all the way to Highway 3. The Qood news: 1. The MEQB may, at its own discretion, accept or reject the ALJ's recommendation. 2. The ALJ expressed some ambivalence about his own recommendation. In the Memorandum that accompanied his Report and Recommendation, he indicated the following: "Balancing all of the data in the record, the Administrative Law Judge recommends the old railroad right-of-way for the route through the City". [but] the route as originally proposed through the Giles Properties and Rother farm would be a reasonable alternative... ". Where do we QO? I anticipate that we will discuss this matter at Tuesday's Development Committee meeting and possibly at the Management Team meeting. I personally believe that we should: a. Notify all affected City property owners of the ALJ's recommendation and its potential impact (if adopted by the MEQB). b. Determine which options (letters, e-mails, etc,) exist for conveying the City's opinion(s) and the opinions of affected property owners to the MEQB before it makes its decision, and disseminate that information to all potentially interested parties. c. Verify the time and location of an EQB meeting that will apparently take place on 1/20/05 (a final decision regarding the route might possibly be made at this meeting). d, Determine whether the publiC will have the right to speak at the aforementioned meeting. e. Strategize with the City Council regarding how this matter should be handled by City staff from now to whenever the final routing decision is made. Call me if you have any questions about this matter. Kevin Carroll Community Development Director City of Farmington 51-463-1860 (City Hall) 651-775-5962 (cell phone) 1 <jz - 3: .2 - QJ > C .- ......

Klein Administrative Law Judge Office of Administrative Hearings 1 00 Washington Ave. So., Suite 1700 Minneapolis MN 55401-2138 RE: FarmingtonJEmpire Township Transmission Line & Substation EQB Docket No. 04-81-TR-Air Lake-Empire OAH Docket No. 6-2901-16161-2 Dear Judge Klein: City Administrator David Urbia and I attended the October 11 th public hearing that you conducted in Farmington regarding the matter referred to above. I offered testimony at that time regarding the City of Farmington's position on (a) the route that Great River Energy, Dakota Electric Association and Xcel Energy had initially proposed and (b) various alternative routes that were later proposed by a number of parties. This letter, which reiterates my earlier verbal comments, was reviewed and approved by the Farmington City Council at its meeting on November 1,2004. The following summary addresses three distinct geographic segments of the route in question: the portion east of State Trunk Highway 3 [hereinafter "Highway 3"], the portion along Highway 3, and the portion west of Highway 3. Great River Energy, Dakota Electric Association and Xcel Energy will be hereinafter collectively referred to as ''the utility companies." 1. Portion of transmission line east of Hil!hwav 3. The route permit application that was submitted by the utility companies proposed a transmission line route that included a segment from the Highway 3 (on the west) to the intersection of Cambodia Avenue and 210th Street (on the east). This segment does not follow any existing, planned or anticipated roadway alignment(s). The proposed route cuts through two adjacent parcels (owned by Mr. Neil Perkins) that are currently being used for commercial purposes and that have significant redevelopment potential. The proposed route also passes between two other commercial properties (the American Legion property and the Marschall Bus Line property) in a location where the distance between the transmission line and the buildings appears to be less than the width of the easement that is typically desired by the utility companies. Finally, the proposed route runs along the southern boundary of two parcels (located directly east of the American Legion building) that are currently being considered for residential development. The presence of a transmission line (and its related easement) in that vicinity would reduce the developable area and potentially complicate efforts to design roadway connections, The City of Farmington therefore proposed to the EQB that the segment of the proposed route between Highway 3 and Cambodia Avenue be re-oriented to generally follow the former railroad right-of-way along the southern boundary of the Marschall Bus Line property. [This is the "City of Farmington Alternative" that appears in Sections 4.1.3 and 7.1.3 of the EQB's Environmental Assessment dated September 27, 2004; see also Figure 7.] This route would be along or within the right-of-way of a potential future roadway connection between Cambodia Avenue and the intersection of Highway 3 and Willow Street (which currently terminates on the west side of Highway 3). As this roadway proceeded northeast from that intersection, it would (at a point roughly halfway between Highway 3 and Cambodia Avenue) have to move out of the former railroad right-of-way and turn straight east in order to intersect with the comer of Cambodia Avenue and 21 Oth Street. The City of Farmington believes that this alternate route would provide easier access to the line for repair and maintenance, minimize impacts on existing businesses and structures, and reduce potentially negative effects upon future development and/or redevelopment projects in the vicinity. Mr. Patrick Regan, representing Marschall Bus Lines, also testified at the public hearing on October 11 th that the alternative proposed by the City was more acceptable to his company than the route that had been initially proposed by the utility companies. The City has taken no formal position with regard to the various alternative routes that have been proposed for the portion of the transmission line that will be constructed east of the area referred to above (that is, the portion lying within Empire Township between Cambodia Avenue on the west and the existing Empire Substation on the east). 2. Portion of transmission line alon!! Hi!!hwav 3. The City of Farmington has no objection to the portion of the transmission line that the utility companies have proposed to place along the east side of Highway 3 between the Willow Street/Highway 3 intersection (where the routing alternative discussed above meets Highway 3 on the east side of the road) and County Road 62. However, if it is within your discretion to do so, the City requests that you direct the EQB to require the utility companies to: a. Minimize impacts on existing trees to the greatest extent possible. There are a significant number of tall trees along this portion of the route that provide shade for the homes and businesses on the east side, and that beautify the Highway 3 corridor. b. Initiate contact with the owners of the other utilities (telephone, cable, etc.) that currently maintain poles and lines along the east side of Highway 3, in order to co-locate all such utilities on a single set of poles along the east side of the road, thereby reducing visual clutter and improving the appearance of the Highway 3 corridor. 3. Portion of transmission line west of Hi!!hwav 3. This portion of the transmission line has generated a number of alternatives that would significantly affect the City of Farmington. Before addressing those alternatives, it should be noted that the City has not, to date, expressed any objection(s) to the portion of the transmission line that the utility companies proposed to construct between Highway 3 (on the east) and Akin Road (on the west). This portion of the route, which is depicted in Figure 2 of the EQB's Environmental Assessment, primarily affects two parcels of private property. One such parcel, which is adjacent to Highway 3, is owned by Jerry Rother, Larry Rother and Kay Cahill [hereinafter "the Rother property"]. The other parcel, which is owned by Molly Murphy and/or Giles Development Corporation, Inc. [hereinafter ''the Giles property"], is adjacent to Akin Road. Although the City of Farmington has not opposed the utility companies' proposed routing of the portion of the transmission line referred to above, the City requests that you direct the EQB (if it is within your discretion to do so) to require the utility companies to consult closely with the City regarding the potential future alignment of the planned extension of 20gth Street from the vicinity of the Farmington Middle School East to Highway 3 (through the Rother property), and regarding the potential future alignment of any future collector roads that may be planned near or within the proposed transmission line corridor in this vicinity, so that any such transmission lines can be placed (wherever possible) in locations that: a. are likely to be within or adjacent to the rights-of-way for future roads; b. do not conflict with future roadway alignments or intersections; and c. do not render anticipated residential development more complicated, more expensive or less visually attractive. The Farmington City Council (at its meeting on September 20, 2004) authorized and directed the City Engineer to prepare a Feasibility Report regarding the 20gth Street extension referred to above. It is anticipated that this Feasibility Report will finalize the future alignment of 20gth Street and thereby provide the information that the utility companies would need to place the proposed transmission line within or parallel to the right-of-way for 20gth Street, or in a location that minimizes adverse impact(s) to the residential development that is expected to eventually occur on the Rother and Giles properties. In addition, at its meeting on November 1, 2004 the City approved a Thoroughfare Plan Amendment that identifies (for the first time) the locations of new collector roads that will serve newly-developing properties including (but not limited to) the Rother and Giles parcels. This amended Thoroughfare Plan will also be useful to the utility companies in finalizing a transmission line route that avoids or minimizes conflicts with planned roadways or residential development. Rother Bypass #1 and Bypass #2: These alternatives are described in Sections 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 of the EQB's Environmental Assessment, and they are depicted in Figures 5 and 6. Modified versions of these alternatives are also depicted on the aerial photos that appear in the Environmental Assessment as Figures 14 and 15. As I indicated at the public hearing on October 11 th, the City is opposed to these two alternatives. One of the parties who spoke at the public hearing repeatedly referred to them as alternatives that were proposed by the City, which is not the case. Some of the confusion may be attributable to the fact that both of these alternatives essentially start at the place where the "City of Farmington Alternative" [Section 7.1.3 ofthe Environmental Assessment) ends: at the Highway 3/Willow Street intersection. However, the City has never suggested that the transmission line route should proceed west from Highway 3 along Willow Street and/or the nearby railroad right-of-way, for several reasons. First, it's not completely clear that ''the former railroad right-of-way corridor no longer exists," as stated in section 7.1.1 of the Environmental Assessment. City staff members believe that the railroad may have retained some type of interest (easement, right-of-way, license, etc.) in the property in question when the underlying land was sold to the adjoining property owners. The owner of the lumberyard, which encompasses at least half of both of the Rother Bypass routes between Highway 3 and downtown Farmington, has talked from time to time about the possibility of re-activating the railroad line to get lumber products to and from his commercial site. This possibility could be adversely affected by the presence of a new transmission line. Second, both of the Rother Bypass routes would impact commercial and residential properties that were not expected to be affected when the Route Permit process was initiated. As a result, it is not clear what type of notice(s), if any, the property owners in question received from the utility companies and/or the EQB regarding the possibility that their properties could be adversely affected. Rother Bypass #1 and Rother Bypass #2 would each impact the following properties: Dakota County Lumber, Peerless Plastics, Farmington Lanes (bowling alley), Landscape Depot, Marigold Foods, Farmington Auto Sales, Sauber Plumbing, the Farmington Eagles Club, and several homes. Rother Bypass #1 would also impact City Center, Farmington's most recent downtown development, by placing a transmission line next to EconoFoods and directly in front of Pellicci's Ace Hardware. The transmission line would also pass directly in front of a building pad site (to the immediate east of Pellicci's Ace Hardware) that the owner/developer is currently marketing to a number of prospective tenants. In short, both of the Rother Bypass alternatives would affect far more existing businesses than the route that the utility companies originally proposed (along Highway 3). Third, and as correctly noted in Section 7.1.1 of the Environmental Assessment, "... clearances and underground utility information have not been determined and may affect the constructability of the route." Fourth, both of the Rother Bypass alternatives would affect City park land and School District property (including buildings and outdoor recreation facilities owned by Independent School District 192). The Highway 3 route originally proposed by the utility companies would not. Fifth, the City does not believe that the number of crossings of the Vermillion River should be a significant factor in the routing decision. The two Rother Bypass alternatives each require one crossing. Three crossings are required by the route originally suggested by the utility companies. However, one of those three crossings would be very close to Highway 3, and another would be very close to Akin Road, so it's difficult to see how the "river aesthetics" of areas that already have bridges and traffic would be significantly worsened by the presence of a transmission line that will probably have its supporting structures located quite some distance from the river itself. In summary, the collective opinion of City staff and the City Council is that the actual and potential disadvantages of the two Rother Bypass alternatives outweigh their advantages, and that the preferred route for the portion of the transmission line between Highway 3 and Akin Road is the route originally proposed by the utility companies (see Figure 2 and Section 3.1.3 of the Environmental Assessment).
