PUBLIC FORUM City Manager Boyles reviewed the process for the public forum and explained that items sched- uled for public hearing or items for which a public hearing has been held but no final action taken, are not eligible for discussion on the public forum. Richard Gross, 16268 Eagle Creek: Stated he agrees article one on page three of agenda item 8A. Explained when he bought his building there were no setbacks, in 2007 that changed with a 30’ setback making his building non-compliant with a redline down the center of it. Stated he had offers to sell his property for $675k, $650k and $550k that all fell through because of the redline. Added he now has an offer of $525k but they buyers do not want to buy a non-compliant building. Stated there is a five-year lease that the tenants put in $150k of their own money in the building but not any additional property. Asked the council to think about the Rotary saying “Is it fair for all concerned” and to imagine for a minute that it is your building with your retirement is wrapped up into the building only to have the city come in to change the setback creating a loss of $150k in four years’ time. Thanked everyone involved. Kim Churchill, 16209 Evenston Ave SE: Stated the work sessions should be open to the public for comment so people can make comments and discuss items being brought up. Stated she is one of the Prior Lake volunteer advisory members for Public Health and that funding for a 16-bed mental illness halfway house to be built in Scott County is being sought since we currently do not have one of these facilities. Michael Broderich, 6566 Haber Place: Asked what the plan is for Commerce Avenue and County Road 42. Boyles: Responded the city did make a decision providing municipal consent which included a cul-de-sac on Commerce Avenue. Added there is no action needed from the City Council unless they wanted to pick up the issue again. Randy Geister, 3630 Cove Point Circle NW: Stated he is the Administrative Director for P.L.A.Y. which has about 2800 families involved. Believed the fees for teams are level with local areas and wants to maintain the small town feel without fees and noted P.L.A.Y. puts money back into the fields.

OLD BUSINESS 8A Consider Approval of an Ordinance Amending Subsection 1102.806 of the Prior Lake Zoning Ordinance Relating to Dimensional Standards Community and Economic Development Director Rogness presented on this topic dated February 27, 2017 MOTION BY BURKART, SECOND BY THOMPSON TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 117-03 AMENDING SUBSECTION 1102.806 OF THE PRIOR LAKE ZONING ORDINANCE RELAT- ING TO DIMENSIONAL STANDARDS Burkart: Stated the downtown area was amended in 2007 moving the setback from 0 to 30 feet, which caused a loss of $150k. Noted in the work session he did not see a proposal for an over- lap on the building. Braid: Stated he believes in property rights and the council needs to show the community that if you invest in a home or business it will be valued and protected. Added the initial reason for the setback was not for a road project so council needs to be careful how it is used otherwise; he supports this motion. McGuire: Noted he is concerned the council is dumping the cost of this property onto the tax payers if it is needed for the project even though it does not seem fair to Gross. Stated if the dol- lar amount is higher in the future, council needs to recognize this was our decision. Briggs: Agreed he is torn between the tax payers who may bare the additional cost but that was not the intent of the setback. Added if it does merit increased costs to the tax payer he will take it on the chin. Thompson: Stated the additional cost should come from the tax payers and not just one busi- ness owner in our community; she is in support of this.

Noted they supported the agenda item. Thompson: Stated this looks clean now that all the issues have been worked through. MOTION BY BURKART, SECOND BY THOMPSON TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 17-027 AP- PROVING THE MAPLE PARK SHORE ACRES SECOND ADDITIONAL COMBINED PRELIMI- NARY AND FINAL PLAT AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT Burkart: Added only one concern was brought up by a resident at the Planning Commission meeting and that was resolved during the meeting.

Schwarzhoff: Responded legally yes, politically her experience has been no. Explained there is an ordinance if the city is going to take over a private street the property owners or Homeowners Association must bring it up to city standards. Thompson: Stated she cannot see any public use for this area; asked Matzke if he can think of a public use? Matzke: Responded in relation to the right-of-way access, no but the reason we have the right-of- way there is for this development to happen. Added we cannot landlock the parcel so we cannot vacate the parcel because it does not front along a public street. Explained a cul-de-sac was built in the 1980s but they did not have the same structure or standards that are in place today; that is why this driveway approach is out-of-the-box. Burkart: Stated the Planning Commission noted there are a lot of trees to be taken out; he likes the plan and thinks it is a good use of the land. Added it will not be a thoroughfare so he is willing to compromise between the substandard and our standard. Asked if this has been done in the past? Matzke: Responded generally the city likes to be up to city standards in order for the city to main- tain street maintenance and utilities. Noted the agreement would set in place so everyone under- stands what is needed for their maintenance. Braid: Asked how many of these agreements does the city have with a private drive and public right-of-way. Schwarzhoff: Replied there are none that she is aware of because the city will either use it as a street or vacate it. Added there are not very many areas like this that would be landlocked if it was vacated. Matzke: Added something similar would be an alley which the city does not maintain and this is not in new developments. Stated a shared driveway would be on private property that the city may have public easement to maintain the utilities underneath. Thompson: Asked how long the road is. Matzke: Responded about 120 feet. Briggs: Questioned if this is going to be solved for these two lots, is it only solving for half of the potential for the adjacent lot? Matzke: Replied no, the property to the north has access directly on Center Road; it may have the ability to subdivide but it is not guaranteed the ability. Schwarzhoff: Stated the agreement would address working with that property owner if it is subdi- vided. DRAFT 02 27 17 City Council Meeting Minutes 6 Briggs: Commented it makes sense if we are solving this for one property we should solve for all properties. Boyles: Noted the staff recommended is alternative three to table this item with the understanding that you support the private drive and the staff should proceed in preparing an agreement be- tween the city and the homeowners association that would represent these properties addressing the maintenance of the shared driveway, lift station and stormwater feature and other issues on the engineer’s memorandum which will all be brought back for final approval. MOTION BY MCGUIRE SECOND BY BURKART TO TABLE THIS ITEM TO A FUTURE CITY COUNCIL MEETING AND PROVIDE THE APPLICANT WITH DIRECTION ON ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN DICUSSED Thompson: Asked how do we know homeowners are maintaining it properly. Matzke: Stated in the agreement it would be addressed. Briggs: Commented that the stormwater basin is uphill, that would not impinge to the adjacent property, would it? Matzke: Responded that area is downhill closer to the lake which will be easier to tie into.

Burkart: Stated the charging for the use of the parks is new territory for Prior Lake. Explained the city council is a policy making body and it is good public policy is to be accountable, effective and fair but the new city policy is cumbersome and does not meet the criteria of good public policy. Believed that organizations should pay-to-play using the fields but opening the door for waivers is not ideal. MOTION BY BURKART SECOND BY MCGUIRE TO TABLE THIS ITEM UNTIL THE MARCH 13, 2017 CITY COUNCIL MEETING DIRECTING STAFF TO REVAMP THE POLICY IN THE INTER- EST OF SIMPLICITY, CLARITY AND FAIRNESS TO ELIMINATE WAIVERS; CONNECT WITH SURROUNDING MUNICIPALITIES AND DETERMINE BEST PRACTICES; DETERMINE FEES THAT ARE ACCEPTABLE TO ALL PARTIES GOING FORWARD Braid: Stated he agrees with Burkart because the fees are not coherent and would like to know what other same size communities are doing. Agreed the waivers are going to cause negotiation for each fee that is required. Briggs: Asked how many fee payments have been received. Barstad: Responded since it is so early in the year, we have not received any; there is an invoice out for Winterfest. DRAFT 02 27 17 City Council Meeting Minutes 7 Thompson: Noted it was a labor intensive thorough process to get to this policy, asked if revamp- ing or revisiting this policy will provide significant improvement? Olson: Stated in 2016 the ordinance was in place and no fees would be charged until 2017. Ex- plained in 2016 the city tracked what the costs would be and Barstad did a lot of research to figure out what other communities were doing and the fees are all over the map in other cities. Noted part of the revenue expectation the council did approve $15k for these fees; if they are waived, another source of revenue would have to be found. McGuire: Asked if delaying this waiver two weeks would create issues for applicants. Randy Geister, 3630 Cove Point Circle NW: Stated it takes a lot of coordination to schedule these tournaments; it is too late to turn back and the fees are a major part of this. Noted P.L.A.Y. puts in $22k-$24k of their own money into the fields with maintenance and personnel costs. Un- derstands that the $15k revenue is a big deal and would like to know how they could help. Stated if they did not put money back into the fields, they could he could see paying fees. Thompson: Asked if the fees reflect the costs that were tracked in 2016. Olson: Stated that fee was based on the current charge to rent Lakefront Pavilion. Explained we looked at our biggest assets such as Main Avenue, the beaches and fields so it is more of an op- portunity cost lost. Stated if an out of town profit facility wanted to use the fields, we wanted a way to charge for city services. Noted the previous council wanted to make it their decision on what could be waived and not a staff decision. Thompson: Stated it is hard to charge them if they are already maintaining their fields. Olson: Noted the soccer association does not contribute to the fields; whereas P.L.A.Y. does so that was another reason the council wanted the waiver option. Barstad: Commented that the city still does maintain the fields as well with dragging and mowing. Briggs: Stated he was in the audience as a citizen and supported these fees when the past coun- cil was deliberating this and as Mayor he is pushing staff to find ways to increase revenues but he does not want to put increased burden on Prior Lake residents who are using the facilities. Sug- gested a policy that modifies itself so the council is not having to deal with each request. McGuire: Suggested a fee for tournaments for the people coming into the town; he is having a dif- ficult time approving a waiver for profit companies and thinks it is foolish to waive the hard costs. Thompson: Asked if there is an issue with the per person fee? Geister: Stated generally you pay a team cost. Barstad: Explained Shakopee does it per person for everyone in the organization who is regis- tered for that sport. Geister: Commented that there is generally about 1200-1300 kids registered. Schwarzhoff: Asked what kind of changes are needed. Braid: Stated the fees are too high. Schwarzhoff: Restated staff is to come back in two weeks with a revised ordinance that would remove the waiver, lower the fees and a distinguish for profit and non-profit. Briggs: Added if there is a way for staff to look at reoccurring events in the year such as the Farmer’s Market. McGuire: Noted Rotary has a large event and they pay a big chunk of money for these events as well as the Chamber paying expenses in the future.

DRAFT 02 27 17 City Council Meeting Minutes 8 9D Consider Approval of a Report Providing Options for Reformatting City Council Work Sessions City Manager Boyles presented on this topic dated February 27, 2017 McGuire: Stated he thinks people attending the work session should comment in the public forum at the regular meeting because the work shop is to inform the council. Braid: Stated he likes the idea of moving the workshop into the chambers to utilize the equipment and having a public forum at the end of the work session for people to speak. Briggs: Explained he enjoys the informality of being seated in a different venue, it gives the coun- cil an opportunity to interact with each other that helps us work through difficult situations. Noted he would like those not attending an opportunity to still be informed starting with an audio record- ing moving to a video recording in time. Agreed public comment is available during the council meeting. Thompson: Stated she likes the informality of the work session and believed it easier to read minutes rather than listening to a bad audio recording. Added she does not think 10 minutes at the end of the meeting for public input is valuable because the work sessions are informational for the council. Burkart: Explained he is comfortable moving the work sessions into the chambers out of respect to staff it would be the most efficient way to record the meetings. Noted he is uncomfortable with the layout and the name of the council chambers; he would be comfortable moving the council meetings to a more casual environment; he is ok with people speaking during the work session for Q&A. McGuire: Stated the minutes would be good as long as they are just notes. Suggested further dis- cussion at the retreat. Thompson: Noted she wants to start with minutes moving to video at some point in the other room in the future. Briggs: Stated feedback from the town hall meeting indicated that audio was favored since minutes can be altered. Agreed this would be good to discuss at the retreat. MOTION BY MCGUIRE, SECOND BY THOMPSON TO DEFER THIS ITEM TO THE MARCH 31, 2017 RETREAT VOTE Briggs McGuire Thompson Burkart Braid Aye ☒ ☒ ☒ ☒ ☒ Nay ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ Abstain ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ Absent ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ The motion carried. 9E Consider Approval of a Resolution Approving a Consultant for the City Council Re- treat, Cost, Agenda and to Authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into the City’s Standardized Contract City Manager Boyles presented on this topic dated February 27, 2017 Burkart: Stated he is comfortable with the budget and with the consultant but would like to delib- erate ideas since he currently has a list of 17 items to quickly run through during the retreat. Noted he wants to make sure the agenda is not hijacked by the consultant and for the consultant to be more of a moderator. McGuire: Noted the consultant will talk to us individually giving us an opportunity to add in items. Burkart: Added the draft agenda has items he does not want to review. DRAFT 02 27 17 City Council Meeting Minutes 9 Thompson: Agreed that some of these items have already been address and she wants more substance. McGuire: Suggested the consultant reach out to the council sooner than later. Burkart: Stated he does not intend to sound negative and is appreciative that this has been put together. Briggs: Commented that the council should tell the consultant what they are looking for.

ITEMS REMOVED FROM THE CONSENT AGENDA 5A Consider Approval of Claims Listing Burkart: Requested that local vendors be utilized as much as possible to purchase items going forward. 5E Consider Approval of Police Department Report Burkart: Stated there were 12 vehicles lock outs in January which is very costly for officers to pro- vide this service; requested a best practices report for surrounding municipalities who charge for this service, cost of the police call and the time it takes. Believed other municipalities do charge for this service since residents can purchase AAA for $75 verses a police call around $300 for this service. McGuire: Noted it is good to look at these fees but just as a reminder these motions are made people will come in to object. Burkart: Responded he is in favor of fees and with the Police Chief stretched on resources this would be a good option for people to reconsider calling the police for $150 for one call or call AAA for $75 for the year. MOTION BY BURKART DIRECTING STAFF TO PREPARE A PROPOSAL TO CHARGE FOR A VEHICLE LOCK OUT FAILED FOR LACK OF A SECOND Briggs: Asked for clarification on 29 disorderly conduct calls in January 2017 versus 4 calls in 2016. Elliott: Explained under the old system there were 200 different event types, in the new system there are 75 different event types but they include subtypes. Noted it will be difficult to compare calls apples to apples until August when it has been one year with the new system.

OTHER BUSINESS / COUNCILMEMBER REPORTS Poppler: Explained the city is currently focused on the Cates Area and Franklin Trail Area Improvement Projects. Added there was a conversation on Sycamore which will begin construction soon. McGuire: Requested this to be brought onto the agenda so people stay informed about the process by the city giving updates. Thompson: Stated she handed out a copy of the Shakopee Resolution 7843 a member of the Shakopee City Council asked her to pass along which is proactively asking cities for a resolution supporting an additional bridge. McGuire: Suggested a bridge on Highway 100 and Normandale Boulevard to go back in so if staff does come back with a resolution it should be generic. Burkart: Stated he is comfortable supporting a resolution constructing another bridge if the other cities would come on board with us for a resolution asking the legislator in St. Paul to reverse the decision to muzzle the old Dan Patch Bridge. Braid: Noted he does not know enough about the topic to comment whether he is for or against the bridge. Briggs: Agrees that he is not ready to give his input. MOTION BY THOMPSON, SECOND BY MCGUIRE DIRECTING STAFF TO RESEARCH SHAKOPEE RESOLUTION 7843 AND OTHER RIVER CROSSINGS THE STAFF FEELS IS VIABLE Burkart: Stated it is an ineffective way to utilize staff resources. Thompson: Noted this could be discussed at a work session. VOTE Briggs McGuire Thompson Burkart Braid Aye ☒ ☒ ☒ ☐ ☐ Nay ☐ ☐ ☐ ☒ ☒ Abstain ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ Absent ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ The motion carried.
