OLD BUSINESS
Consider Approval of a Resolution Authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to Execute the City's
Standardized Professional Services Agreement with Wunderlich-Malec Engineering System
Services for the Electrical Design and Construction Management Services for Athletic Field
Lighting at Ryan Park.
Public Works Director Albrecht explained the work that would be performed with this agreement and
commented that few firms specialize in ball field lighting. Stated that two proposals were received.
Comments:
Millar: Asked why only two bids had been received.
Albrecht: Replied that bids are sent to qualified firms when seeking proposals for professional services
rather than advertising to all firms. Commented that Wunderlich-Malec has successfully performed
services for the City before.
Millar: Will support due to experience and low bid.
LeMair: Concurred that they are significantly less than the other bidder.
Erickson: Believes there are other companies that do this and encouraged expanding the bid list.
Albrecht: Noted that the City maintains a list of engineering firms, with references, for every discipline;
and that we also have an open door policy and a firm will be added to the list if they request it.
Haugen: Will support due to quality of work in the past and low bid.
MOTION BY MILLAR, SECONDED BY LEMAIR TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 07-003 AUTHORIZING
THE MAYOR AND CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE CITY'S STANDARDIZED PROFESSIONAL
SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH WUNDERLICH-MALEC ENGINEERING SYSTEM SERVICES FOR THE
ELECTRICAL DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SERVICES FOR ATHLETIC FIELD

Transit Station.

the intersection of Hwy 169 and CR 18 in Shakopee. Stated that land is acquired and engineering of the
site is completed. She identified the work involved in Phase" and the funding sources as outlined in the
memorandum of understanding.
Comments:
Erickson: Stated that the transit station is needed and that this station will serve not only the people who
City Council Meeting Minutes

DRAFT
use mass transit, but also those who drive, by reducing the number of vehicles.
LeMair: Agreed that it would reduce the amount of cars on the road. Stated that Prior Lake borders the
park and ride location and it will be good for the City in the future. Noted that the funds are in place and the
bid is lower than projected.
Millar: Concurred and will support.
Haugen: Commented that this action accomplishes goals in the 2030 Vision and Strategic Plan for transit.
MOTION BY MILLAR, SECONDED BY LEMAIR TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 07-004 AUTHORIZING
THE MAYOR AND CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WITH SCOTT
COUNTY FOR PHASE" CONSTRUCTION OF SOUTH BRIDGE CROSSINGS TRANSIT STATION.
VOTE: Ayes by Haugen, Erickson, LeMair and Millar. The motion carried.
NEW BUSINESS
Consider Approval Of An Ordinance Amending the Zoning Map to Designate Property as Stonebriar
Planned Unit Development and a Resolution Approving a Preliminary Plat to be known as
Stonebriar.
Planning Coordinator Moore displayed plans for the Stonebriar PUD and informed the Council that
development is anticipated when Scott County builds the access road as part of the CR 12 project. Stated
that part of the area is subject to shoreland requirements and she reviewed recommended conditions.
Recommended that the proposal to sell four homes identified as moderately priced housing at less than
$400,000 be eliminated as one of the listed benefits for the City as that amount is too high to be considered
a moderately-priced home.
Comments:
Millar: Asked about setbacks and density of the shoreland district.
Moore: Replied that the area in the shoreland district was proposed as open space and the remainder of
the area is to allow a higher number of units.
Millar: Asked about the consistency with previous plans.
Pace: Commented that a PUD is different than traditional planning.
Moore: Commented that a PUD gives a developer an opportunity to relax the zoning code in exchange for
them providing something to the City. During the approval process the Council can determine if the trade-
off is appropriate.
Millar: Asked if the set back would apply to all of the houses.
Moore: Displayed the areas where the set backs are being requested and noted that they are not adjacent
to existing residences.
Millar: Stated he didn't recall radical setbacks for other PUDs.
Moore: Gave the example of Northwood Meadow and commented that this particular site is only 10 acres
and staff believes sufficient exchange criteria are offered.
Millar: Agree with the deleting the $400,000 house criteria.
Haugen: Asked staff to explain whether it is easier to develop traditionally or with a PUD and what the
rationale is to determine a benefit to the city.
Moore: Responded that a PUD is more difficult; and gave examples of developers providing benefit to the
City with infrastructure, a unique type of product, moderately-priced housing, park land, trail connections,
and play structure equipment.
Albrecht: Commented that PUDs often provide a preservation of greater amount of open, natural space
along lakes and large open spaces that we wouldn't ordinarily get. This is a 10-acre site and not a lot of
land for flexibility.
City Council Meeting Minutes
January 2, 2007
DRAFT
Pace: Noted that the process allowed a developer to choose traditional development or to try to put
together a PUD package that is enriched and the Council can decide if there is enough value to the public
at large.
LeMair: Asked if the concept plan presentation included a park.
Moore: Replied that discussion was held about the Willows Park across the street.
Albrecht: Commented that the concept plan included open space for prairie but this plan will eliminate
children trying to cross CR 12 to get to a park, and the current plan might have space for a trail head.
LeMair: Asked about berming between the interior road and Hwy 13.
Moore: Replied that a four-foot berm and a 2.5-foot decorative wall are planned.
LeMair: Stated he likes the styles of the homes and that they are closer to moderate prices. Would like to
see something in lower price ranges in future projects, but believes this is creative and different and a step
in the right direction.
Erickson: Sought clarification about rear property setback along CR 12.
Moore: Responded that homes adjacent to CR 12 all need traditional setbacks. Displayed a map of the
property plan and explained the lots that have setbacks proposed.
Erickson: Asked what is in the area between CR 12 and this development.
Albrecht: Replied that County has purchased property for access control. State provided $850,000 for
access control. City will partner with the project and end up owning the property and will have to decide
whether to sell it or come up with some other alternative.
Erickson: Asked if any maintenance agreement on that property would it be a condition of the PUD.
Albrecht: Replied that it would be part of the final plat and the City will work with the County or developer
to build that portion of the street.
Erickson: Asked if there would be emergency vehicle access problems or traffic access problems onto CR
12.
Albrecht: Responded this development would not generate much traffic, and that the trail will be built
wider through Pheasant Meadow to allow additional emergency access.
Erickson: Questioned whether this is an area that should be considered for future retail.
Haugen: Asked staff to explain if the process was quicker for a PUD vs. a traditional development.
Moore: Replied that a PUD takes longer.
Haugen: Noted that the Council has not moved quickly in deciding on these processes and we come up
with plans that stand the test of time. Stated that the McComb study identified that the City would not want
retail rimmed along highways, but rather condensed into downtown and other targeted intersections that
can be a mixed-used situation. Supports removing $400,000 as affordable housing.
Erickson: Recommends signage to identify parking on one side of the street since the street will be only
28' wide.
Haugen: Asked Moore if that is consistent with other PUDs.
Albrecht: Affirmed that it is consistent with City Code.
MOTION BY LEMAIR, SECONDED BY ERICKSON TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 107-02 AMENDING
SECTION 1101.700 OF THE PRIOR LAKE CITY CODE AND THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP FOR THE
CITY OF PRIOR LAKE REMOVING REFERENCE TO MODERATELY PRICED HOMES AND
IDENTIFYING ONE SIDE OF THE STREET PARKING

Consider Approval of Resolutions Authorizing the Purchase of 1) Anti-ice Prewet Equipment, and 2)
One Valve Operator.
Streets and Utilities Supervisor Eldred stated that the requested equipment purchase will allow
expansion of the anti-icing and prewet programs and allow implementation of a preventative maintenance
program for the City's water distribution system. He explained the bids received and funds available.
Comments:
Millar: Asked for an explanation of a valve operator and why the equipment is needed.
Eldred: Responded that it would allow us to access the valves and allow the work to be done with less
staffing.
Albrecht: Noted that it allows us to exercise all 4,000 valves each year. The equipment would allow
valves to be opened and would apply consistent torque to reduce breakage. This would be a maintenance
program that could be done with one person rather than two.
Millar: It will provide preventive maintenance more efficiently, help with fire safety and will be a cost saving
over time because of reduced staff time.
LeMair: Stated that having appropriate tools for job is necessary. Asked if hours are scheduled for regular
maintenance.
Eldred: Affirmed there is staff time for this and this is another one of several preventative maintenance
programs in place.
Erickson: Will support.
Haugen: Concurred.
MOTION BY MILLAR, SECONDED BY LEMAIR TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 07-006 AUTHORIZING
THE PURCHASE OF ANTI-ICE PREWET EQUIPMENT FROM VARITECH INDUSTRIES.
VOTE: Ayes by Haugen, Erickson, LeMair and Millar. The motion carried.
MOTION BY MILLAR, SECONDED BY LEMAIR TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 07-007 AUTHORIZING
THE PURCHASE OF ONE HURCO VALVE OPERATOR UNIT FROM NORTHERN WATER WORKS
SUPPLY.
VOTE: Ayes by Haugen, Erickson, LeMair and Millar. The motion carried.
Consider Approval of a Report Regarding Park Land Property Encroachments.
Public Works Director Albrecht discussed scenarios the City encounters periodically regarding property
encroachments and requested direction from the Council for the Zimmerman parcel. Explained the
Zimmerman property and an area that was mistakenly believed to be theirs. The Zimmerman's want to
build an addition and there is no space due to setbacks of actual property line. Zimmerman expressed
preference to purchase the property but City property cannot be sold to one individual; it is a bidding
process. City staff is generally opposed to selling park land but would consider a land swap and the
property owner would have to pay for replatting the property. Would like general Council direction on these
types of encroachments.
Comments:
Erickson: Clarified the property that would be traded.
Albrecht: Displayed the area on the map which includes fencing erected by the City that is not on the
property line. Explained the City has the option of removing the fence and taking over maintenance of the
area which has been maintained by the Zimmerman's up to this point.
City Council Meeting Minutes
January 2, 2007
DRAFT
Erickson: Asked if the City would have to rebuild the fence.
Albrecht: Responded that the City typically doesn't build a fence along a park but this was done originally
to help define boundary.
Erickson: Commented that a bidding process would still be viable.
Boyles: Stated the City would actually have to accept the bids.
Pace: Affirmed that the City would have to use the appraised price as the floor.
Albrecht: Commented that staff has shied away from sale of park land, but swapping can allow exchange
of equal value to equal value.
Pace: Stated that a sale vs. a swap cannot be a universal decision, but rather the City would need to
consider the unique situation each time.
Albrecht: Pointed out that the Zimmerman's have landscaped on City property.
Pace: Stated the situation is unique and the City made a mistake by installing the fence.
Boyles: Commented that the City was working with the property owner and both parties made an error
that they are now trying to resolve mutually.
Pace: Believes a swap is a good solution and doesn't think the Council should develop policy based on this
situation.
Erickson: Stated this was an honest mistake and the proposed solution is good. Believes a sale may not
be a workable solution and Zimmerman may be taking a risk by having someone else put a bid in.
Pace: Gave examples of other encroachments and believes they should not be rewarded by allowing
people to buy the City property.
LeMair: Agreed it was an honest mistake and supports a swap. Commented that City policy is to maintain
its own property and not let people encroach upon it.
Millar: Agrees that a swap is best solution and future situations should be reviewed on an individual basis.
Haugen: Will support a trade of square footage.
MOTION BY MILLAR, SECONDED BY ERICKSON TO APPROVE THE REPORT, THAT A SWAP
CONCEPT IS APPROPRIATE IN THIS SITUATION AND THE PROPERTY OWNER WILL PAY COSTS
ASSOCIATED WITH TRANSACTION.
VOTE: Ayes by Haugen, Erickson, LeMair and Millar. The motion carried.
Consider Approval of an Appointment of a Councilmember for the Period of January 16, 2007, to
December 31,2007.
City Manager Boyles reviewed the Dornbush resignation and described the process for filling the vacancy
included the requirement for sequestering candidates during the interviews to assure that all candidates
have equal opportunity and no candidate would have the advantage of viewing another candidate's
interview responses. Commented that seven applications were received. Noted that state statute provides
for the Mayor to make an appointment if there is a tied vote on the appointment.
Haugen: Stated that two candidates did not arrive in time for sequestering and were removed from
consideration.
Boyles: Confirmed that he advised the two candidates when they arrived for their interview that they were
removed from consideration and that they agreed they received the correspondence advising them to arrive
at the sequestering time.
Haugen: Invited Evens to share his comments about the process.
Evens: Described his perspective of the application process and the interview scheduling process.
Believes the correspondence could have been more apparent in describing the expected time of arrival.
Described his process of preparing for the interview. Believes he should have been called prior to 4 p.m.
(his appointed interview time) to be advised that he was eliminated from the process. Believes

sequestering is not necessary.
Boyles: Stated he was attending the interviews and reviewed the memo that identified the sequestering
time. Believes the process worked well for the people who participated in it.
LeMair: Noted that he participated in the process of applying for the position several years ago and
subsequently was appointed. The process was the same. Stated that during his own experience he
wanted all the information he could get to be prepared for the interview and read the correspondence
thoroughly. Stated it is not the City's role to call and ask where an applicant is, that a council member
position assumes much responsibility and that sense of responsibility was not evident in this case. Stated
the process works well and the City Manager does not need to apologize for it.
Millar: Concurred that rules were established and when the sequestering time arrived the Council
considered what to do and agreed that candidates who were present should be sequestered so they would
be on equal footing. There were no extenuating circumstances. Believes Evens missed his personal
responsibility.
Erickson: Stated his understanding of Even's situation but noted he had interviewed for the Council two
year previously and the correspondence contained the exact paragraph that he received at that time.
Haugen: Agreed that Boyles had explained the process and noted that another candidate who missed the
sequestering time frame understood that he would not be considered and took the responsibility for it.
Believes the process is accurate and the letter that was sent was clear.
RECESS
Mayor Haugen called a recess at 8:01 p.m.
RECONVENE
The meeting reconvened at 8:08 p.m.
Comments:
Haugen: Stated that by state statute when a vacancy occurs, the Council appoints someone to the
position until the next general election. The election in November will be to fill the remainder of the four-
year term. Read the names of the applicants considered. Restated that two candidates were not present
when the interview process began and, hence, were not eligible to be considered.
Millar: Commented that he is not comfortable to have to choose the people's representative, but has the
responsibility. Thanked the candidates and commented on attributes of each. Stated his support of
Hedberg due to his stated belief that communication is critical, he has a vision of where the City should be
heading and a belief in partnership with the school district and a strong neighborhood outreach program.
LeMair: Agreed the candidates were excellent and supported Lemke and Hedberg due to interest and
experience in serving the community. Expressed support for Lemke because of his commitment to the
Planning Commission.
Erickson: Stated that all were strong candidates and listed attributes of each. Supported Hedberg
because of history in the community and agreement with statements from his presentation regarding
diverse economic and ethnicity challenges.
Haugen: Stated he was impressed with all of the candidate's understanding of the 2030 comprehensive
plan and its importance, knowledge of 2030 vision and strategic plan, comments about the importance of
making decisions for the long term. Concurred with Millar and Erickson on the appointment for Hedberg.
LeMair: Commented that he perceives Lemke and Hedberg as equal candidates and supported Lemke to
recognize and reward the work he has done on the Planning Commission. Asked if the Council believes
there is merit in drawing from the Commission or committees for vacant Council positions.
Haugen: Agreed on the ability of either candidate. Noted that he does not want a tied vote where the

Mayor would make the decision and would rather have a consensus.
LeMair: Concurred that they are equal candidates.
Erickson: Stated he considered what would be best for Prior Lake and came to his conclusion based on
who would be the right person for the job. Chose Hedberg because of his knowledge of the City, but one
could say the same about Lemke.
Millar: Agreed that both candidates would do well and stated that Hedberg's perspective seemed to be
more global and stressed a strong neighborhood outreach program.
LeMair: Concurred he was comfortable putting Hedberg as the first choice.
Erickson: Believes each council member should vote his own decision.
Millar: No matter who is chosen, the community wins.
Haugen: Noted that Lemke was recently appointed chair to the Planning Commission and it might serve
the community well to have him continue in that role.
