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.

6. 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.

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.

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)

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.

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.

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.

SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution Accepting Holiday Decorations Donation
DATE: December 20, 2004
INTRODUCTION
A donation of some holiday decorations has been offered to the City of Farmington by
Doug Peterson, 18602 Euclid Avenue, Farmington.
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.
ACTION REQUESTED
Adopt the attached resolution accepting the donation of the four reindeers and sled from
Doug Peterson at a value of $2,350.00.

Approve Collection Agreement with the National Recycling Coalition and Nike, Inc.
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. Dakota County has also
indicated a willingness to support the program. If the Agreement is approved, it will mean that the City of
Farmington and ISD 192 will be the first organizations in the State of Minnesota to participate in the Reuse-
a-Shoe program.
BUDGET IMPACT
Any costs for this program will be charged to the Solid Waste budget. It is anticipated that there will be
minimal costs to participate in this program.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the Collection Agreement with the National Recycling Coalition and Nike, Inc.

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).

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.

TO:
FROM:
DATE:
December 14, 2004
In reviewing the proposed development, the following comments need to be addressed to
meet the Minnesota State Fire Code (MSFC).
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.

RE:
Comments on Charleswood Northeast Preliminary Plat
DATE:
December 9, 2004
INTRODUCTION
Centex Homes (the Developer) has submitted the Charleswood Northeast Preliminary Plat (Preliminary Plat) for
a new residential and commercial development consisting of just under 63 acres of land. 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.

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.

RE:
Agreement with Farmington Youth Hockey Association
DATE:
December 20, 2004
BACKGROUND
In 1997, the Farmington Youth Hockey Association (FYHA) entered into an Agreement with the City
of Farmington to pay for an extension of a sanitary sewer line to a warming house that is located on
City property south of Farmington Middle School West. 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.
REQUESTED ACTION
Approve by motion the Agreement with FYHA.

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,

Great River Energy/Dakota Electric/Xcel Energy Transmission Line and Substation
DATE:
December 20, 2004
INTRODUCTION
Great River Energy (GRE), Dakota Electric Association (DEA) and Xcel Energy (Xcel) intend to
construct and operate a new substation and new transmission lines in the City of Farmington.
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.

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.

The Honorable Allan W. 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).
