staff report and suggested that Council consider purchasing a 3 x 20 Banner
with the wording of Play'n In Prior Lake along with the City Logo to hang
from the clock tower as an advertisement for the concert series. The cost of
the banner would be approximately $250. Mayor Andren suggested that the
Committee be consulted first. Councilmembers suggested that it would be
cost effective to leave the portable rest rooms at the concert location during
the three months the concerts are being held, this would also allow other
groups to use them instead of each organization paying for the installation and
removal each time a function occurred in front of City Hall. Some of the
functions mentioned were DARE Bikathon and Lakefront Days.

hearing to order. at 7:40 p.m. - City Manager Boyles briefly reviewed the purpose
of the hearing and events which have occurred to date. Mayor Andren asked if
anyone was interested in a particular access. There was one gentleman interested
in the 8th Street access issue and several were present who were interested in the
Terrace Circle access. The following accesses were scheduled for discussion:
7th Street North, Monroe Avenue and Kent Street, Lime Road South, 8th Street
N orth. Water Resources Coordinator, Lani Leichty, presented details of the 8th
Street North Access vacation, and discussed the Lake Advisory Committee's
recommendation to vacate a strip on either side of the access leaving a middle
strip for utility access. Brad Gulstad, 2865 Center Road, requested that Council
consider retaining the property as a public park instead of vacating it for the
purpose of adding it to the public park square directly across the road from the
site. Mr. Gulstad stated that he and the other neighbors have maintained and
mowed the property for the last several years and that he has obtained
approximately 30 signatures from neighborhood residents who are in favor of
making it parkland instead of vacating, Council discussion occurred on whether
the property should or should not be vacated. Council concurred that the area
does serve a public purpose and should not be vacated.

8TH STREET ACCESS AS A DEDICATED ROADWAY.

presented a video of the access under consideration for vacation and the LAC's
recommendation to create a scenic overlook at the site. Rick Berko - 2953 terrace

presented several arguments against the concept. Mr. Berko stated that he had a
petition from 56 of the neighborhood residents who are against using the area as

an overlook. Mayor Andren recommended that the Council refer this issue back
to the LAC for further research and review. After further discussion, Attorney
Kessel stated that typically when property is dedicated ,the manner in which the
city accepted and used the property should be reviewed. If the plat was dedicated
as a public right of way then there is a question as to whether the city has the right
to change the designated use of the property. Council recommended that the
City Attorney and staff review the plat of all accesses under consideration to
determine whether the designation for their use can or cannot be changed.
Council then concurred on tabling the issue until the June 19 Council meeting to
give staff and the attorney time to compile the information. Parks and
Engineering are to look into the past history of maintenance and use at the Terrace
Circle access.

6. GENERAL DISCUSSION OF IMPACT OF PENDING TAX INCREMENT
FINANCING LEGISLATION- Roger Guenette reviewed the possibility of
changes in the tax increment financing laws by the State legislature. Mr.
Guenette stated that in the event of TIF law changes that the Council should
consider prompt action to establish the rest of Waterfront Passage Business
Office Park as a tax increment district and possibly several other sites in the
city where tax increment financing might be essential to promote significant
development. The County has been apprised of this action and appears to
have no objection. The down side of this action is that it starts the clock and
there will be a limited number of years to generate increment, which does
impact the City's ability to write down costs to promote development.
