June 3, 2002
Esser: Discussed the Grand Opening for the facility on June 15, 2002, fees for the skate park, and the rules in order to
mitigate damage to the facility, and promote the enjoyment for all participants. Further discussed the disciplinary
procedures. Announced an Open House for participants to purchase passes, get waivers and ask questions on Saturday,
June 15th.
Pace: Asked if a non-resident came for the day, how the liability waiver is handled.
Esser: Advised that a parent must be present to sign the waiver prior to the sale of any pass.
LeMair: Asked how seasonal passes will be issued.
Esser: Advised that nothing physical will be issued to the participants, and that the child's photograph, liability waiver and
pass information will be held at the facility and checked by the attendant at check-in.
HauQen: Asked about the capacity.
Esser: Advised that no maximum 'capacity rule has been implemented by other cities. We will monitor capacity from a
safety perspective and regulate as needed.
HauQen: Thanked the staff for their efforts, as well as the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community and the Prior Lake
Optimists Club for their generous contributions.
[ADDED] Presentation on Status of Well Development
Osmundson: Discussed the most recent mailings on conservation efforts and the odd/even watering restrictions that are
now in place, noting that the restrictions are a requirement in order for the State to consider the City's requests for
additional production wells. Further updated the Council that the water production has been increased by approximately
33% with the addition of Well No.6, and advised that the award of the contract for the FIG well is anticipated in July.
Discussed the City's education and communication efforts to spread the word on water system conservation. Also advised
that the implementation of radio read meters is progressing.
LeMair: Asked if every City has odd/even water restrictions.
Osmundson: Explained that only 60%-70% of metropolitan cities have restrictions, which are primarily based upon how
they acquire and provide water. Those cities that draw from the Mississippi are looked at differently than those that draw
from an acquifer.
LeMair: Asked if there will ever be a situation where the restrictions will be lessened.
Osmundson: Noted that anything is possible, and there is a potential to restructure the restriction in some fashion, but
repeated that conservation programs are required by the State and DNR in order to get permits for production wells. If the
City cannot show that it has a conservation program in place, it is likely that the State and DNR will look unfavorably upon
any request for additional production wells.
LeMair: Asked if another well is slated after this year.
Osmundson: Advised that a well is projected to go on line this year, with an additional well proposed in the 2003 CIP.

June 3, 2002
Petersen: Asked if the City can monitor how water is used.
Osmundson: Advised the City can monitor its water usage by the hour, and that the City has about a 10% "unaccounted
for" water usage which is about average for cities.
Zieska: Asked if permits can be acquired for newly-sodded lawns. Further noted that line breaks on the weekends are
typically repaired as quickly as possible, but that repairs are often dependent on other items such as Gopher State One
.locates.
Osmundson: Noted that permits can be obtained at no cost from the Maintenance Center for newly-sodded lawns.
HauQen: Asked about partnering with the SMSC.
Osmundson: Advised that an interconnection with SMSC has been proposed. At this point, both governments have
contacted the necessary authorities in order to find out what approval process might be necessary.
Tescher: From the standpoint of education and communication, advised that projections indicate that cumulative water
consumption has dropped by 8% over last year, which is the lowest point of water sales since 1999. So, it does appear that
the City's communication efforts are, in fact, educating the community about water conservation.
Zieska: Pointed out that the statistic is especially noteworthy given the growth experienced in our community.

Teschner: Reviewed the agenda item in connection with the staff report, noting the changes since the City Council! Staff
work session, including deletion of the allocation. for park signs due to recent Council action to accelerate the project,
addition of CSAH 82 cooperative reconstruction in 2007, and switching funding for reconstruction of 150th Street to coincide
with Savage's proposed intersection work.
Zieska: Asked about the Equipment Matrix.
Teschner: Confirmed that the Equipment Matrix is identified with the Capital Improvement Program whereby equipment is
programmed for replacement over a 12 year period.
Zieska: Noted that even though the City would like to see County Road 82 improved as quickly as possible, the County is
the primary funding source and the timing is driven by them.
Teschner: Confirmed and advised that there is potential for the project to be accelerated based upon growth in the area.
HauQen: Suggested that any acceleration of that project would be a plus, as long as the City doesn't have to give up
another project to do so.
LeMair: Asked for clarification of the tax impact.
Teschner: Explained that based on the 2002 property tax base from a City only perspective, a $175,000 home would have
a property tax increase of approximately $10 if the reconstruction project was approved.
MOTION BY ZIESKA, SECOND BY PETERSEN TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 02.83 APPROVING THE 2003-2007
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP).
VOTE: Ayes by Haugen, Petersen, Zieska, and LeMair, the motion carried.

Zieska: Asked for clarification as to minor adjustments.
McDermott: Those items would involve things like hydrant placement and driveway locations.
Gundlach: Asked if the special assessment committee has met on this issue.
Zieska: Advised that the assessment committee has met twice on this issue and it is projected that a unit assessment will
be used, even though nothing is final until the bids come in. There do not appear to be any red flags in that all the properties
in the project are similar in size and attributes.
Gundlach: Asked if the project should proceed given the significance of the easement yet to be acquired.
McDermott: Believed that moving forward would allow work on Pixie Point Road and Green Oaks Trail to begin and be
completed this construction season, with the exception of the final wear course. If need be, the specifications can be written
so that the remainder of the work could be completed next year. If the contractor knows in advance of bidding the project,
they will factor that in to their bid. Estate Avenue and Lori Road will be separate quantities.
Gundlach: Asked the status of acquiring the easement.
McDermott: Advised that a meeting with the appropriate parties is scheduled this week.
Zieska: Noted that the intent of completing this project before 150th Street is so there is less impact on the new roadway by
heavy construction machinery.

June 3, 2002

The Council took a brief recess.
HauQen: Asked City Engineer McDermott to introduce the new Assistant City Engineer.
McDermott: Introduced Larry Poplar, who was in his first week of work with the City. Larry previously worked with

NEW BUSINESS
Consider Approval of a Resolution Approving the Preliminary Plat to be Known as Red Cedar Heights.
Kansier: Briefly reviewed the agenda item in connection with the staff report.
LeMair: Asked how the square footage cost for park land is arrived at.
Kansier: Advised that approximately one year ago, the City completed an extensive park dedication fee study to identify the
cost for developing parks and acquiring land.
Gundlach: Asked why the requested amendments hadn't been resolved prior to bringing the preliminary plat consideration
to the Council.
Kansier: Even though the developer has been working on these issues, the fine detail has not yet been sufficiently
addressed. The staff and Planning Commission felt that with the condition that no grading begin, the preliminary plat could
move forward, since the issues would result in any major re-design of the plat.
Zieska: Asked if the purpose of a preliminary plat is to begin grading, what is the point of approving the preliminary plat at
this time.
Kansier: The project continues to move forward.
Pace: Advised that there is also a statutory requirement for preliminary plats, in this case June 30th or the plat is
automatically approved. In this manner, the Council has the opportunity for review and to impose conditions.
MOTION BY GUNDLACH, SECOND BY ZIESKA TO DEFER ACTION ON THIS ITEM TO THE NEXT REGULAR COUNCIL
MEETING FOR THE PURPOSE OF ASSURING THAT PROGRESS IS MADE ON THE REMAINING OUTSTANDING
ISSUES THAT WOULD NORMALLY BE RESOLVED BEFORE THE PRELIMINARY PLAT IS ISSUED, PARTICULARLY
WITH RESPECT TO THE WATER DELlNATION AND THE STORM WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN.
Pace: Pointed out that the conditions of the plat, in essence, appear to address the Council's concerns.
Zieska: Believed the application was incomplete and the process should be more complete at this point. Also believes
taking this action at this point sets a bad precedent.
Pace: Pointed out that at the next meeting, if the Council still has concerns or wishes to impose additional conditions, the
applicant still has the ability to waive the 60-day rule, rather than having the Council deny the application.
VOTE: Ayes by Haugen, Gundlach, Petersen, Zieska, and LeMair, the motion carried.

re-designated in order to be a buffer between those uses.
Kansier: Confirmed.
LeMair: Asked if there is any other place where we are replacing commercial property within the property.
Kansier: Advised not at this time.
Gundlach: Advised that several years ago, and as an additional option, a property was re-platted and the Council asked
the staff to find similar suitable acreage that could be re-designated to replace the commercial property lost.
LeMair: Asked how the property was first designated at commercial.
Kansier: Advised that the Comprehensive Plan has been in place for quite some time. Believed there was probably no
