Council Meeting Minutes
January 4, 1999
MADER: Asked for clarification as to item B.
BOYLES: Provided clarification as to adoption of the 1999 fee schedule which specifies the costs
for services provided by the City to specific persons. Revisions apply to only 8 fees such as the

ITEMS REMOVED FROM CONSENT AGENDA: None.
PRESENTATIONS: NONE
PUBLIC HEARINGS:
Consider Approval of Ordinance 99-XX Approving an Official Map for the Ring Road located
between Franklin Trail and Toronto Avenue.
Mayor MADER declared the public hearing opened and asked for public input.
FRANK MUELKEN (counsel for Lorraine Borka): Understood their was to be an alternate design,
asked for clarification as to the timetable. Stated that the road will in no way benefit Mrs. Borka
and that she is concerned how the road will impact her tenants and her financial capabilities. Also
stated that the alternative may be to acquire the entire parcel. Asked the Council for a open-ended
delay of consideration of the project.
RYE: Stated there was no urgency for immediate action, but conceptually this is in the five-year
Capital Improvement Program.
MADER: Clarified that the action approving the Official Map merely states the City's intentions, but
does not approve the start of construction. The project is not cast in stone and all future action
would come before the Council.
MUELKEN: Expressed concern that once something is initiated, it is hard to stop. Again asked for
delay.
MADER: Noted that action would be continued until the January 19, 1998 meeting in anticipation of
the redesign which would reflect the T-intersection, and recommended that the public hearing be
closed.

Council Meeting Minutes
January 4, 1999
OLD BUSINESS:
Consider Approval of Lake Advisory Committee Report relating to Lake Closure.
BOYLES: Briefly gave a history of the Lake Access Report regarding lake closure with respect to
(1) total closure of the Lake, and (2) closure of City-regulated access gates.
SCHENCK: Asked Lani Leichty, Water Resources Coordinator, what are the ultimate results the City
is looking for?
LEICHTY: Reviewed the Committee's rationale for the City to determine whether or not the lake is
safe and whether to close lake accesses. The DNR takes the position that the lake is never safe
and leaves its accesses always open. Advised that the Committee did discuss installing signs at
the three City accesses that indicated the lake was never safe,
SCHENCK: Questioned if signage would be more appropriate than gating?
PACE: Agreed with Leichty that those kinds of determinations by the City creates an inference of
liability. You may want to consider posting, but the question is not which is more appropriate.
There are two separate issues,
LEICHTY: The Committee believes closing the accesses would create more issues than it would
solve.
WUELLNER: It's a catch 22. The City wants to do the right thing. Suggested public education in
addition to signage is a better alternative, but would support the Committee's recommendation.
KEDROWSKI: Stated that there are too many authorities trying to regulate the Lake. Closing the
City's three accesses would just compound the problem. Education and signage is probably t.he
most prudent course of action. Supports Committee's recommendation.
MADER: Believes liability is not the only issue, public safety is. But closing City accesses does not
eliminate the potential for problems. The question is what course can the City take to create the
least likelihood of risk to the public and/or our public safety employees,
MOTION BY KEDROWSKI, SECOND BY WUELLNER TO APPROVE THE LAKE ADVISORY
COMMITTEE REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION RELATING TO LAKE ACCESS GATE
CLOSURE (I.E. CITY GATES WILL NOT BE CLOSED)
VOTE: Ayes by Mader, Kedrowski, Petersen, Wuellner and Schenck, the motion carried.
MOTION BY SCHENCK,SECOND BY KEDROWSKI TO DIRECT THE CITY ATTORNEY AND
STAFF TO EXPLORE APPROPRIATE LANGUAGE FOR POSTING SIGNS AT ALL ACCESSES
TO PRIOR LAKE (THREE CITY ACCESSES AND TWO DNR ACCESSES).
VOTE: Ayes by Mader, Kedrowski, Petersen, Wuellner and Schenck, the motion carried.
Consider Approval of Ordinance 99-XX Adopting 1998 State Building Code and 1997
Uniform Building Code and Approving an Amendment to Title 4, Chapter 1 of the Prior Lake
City Code to Replace Sections 4-1-1 and 4-1-2 of Title 4, Chapter 1 of the Prior Lake City

CODE AND APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO TITLE 4, CHAPTER 1 OF THE PRIOR LAKE

Consider Approval of 1998 City Manager Performance Evaluation and Salary Review.
[Moved to Executive Session, Item 11 D.]
NEW BUSINESS:
Consider Approval of Resolution 99-XX Approving an Amended Conditional Use Permit for
Gleason's Gymnastic School on Property Located at 17001 Fish Point Road.
MOTION BY KEDROWSKI, SECOND BY SCHENCK TO APPROVE ADOPTION OF
RESOLUTION 99-XX APPROVING AN AMENDED CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR
GLEASON'S GYMNASTIC SCHOOL ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT 17001 FISH POINT ROAD.
LYMAN MCPHERSON (17001 Fish Point (Suite 31): Expressed concern for signage for parking and
additional noise issues. Also requested verification that a permanent Certificate of Occupancy is
issued for his portion of the Hanson building.
BOYLES: Provided further clarification as to hours of operation (2pm-10pm) for school activities
only (excluding meets) and noise issues. Reviewed conditions of the CUP.
KEDROWSKI: Requested clarification as to the Certificate of Occupancy issue.
RYE: Provided clarification that the final agreement was arrived at with the property owner in
December and the Certificate of Occupancy was issued just before Christmas. Staff will double-
check the Certificate of Occupancy for this use..
Upon clarification by Staff, Mr, MCPHERSON stated he was comfortable with issuing the CUP.
CHUCK RUTZ (Petitioner): Asked for direction with how to proceed.
MADER: Based on Council action tonight, the petitioner should implement the conditions as soon
as possible, so that the high school can use the facility.
RUTZ: Asked who regulates the noise abatement requirements?
MADER: Replied a soundproof expert with approval by Don Rye, Planning Director.
RUTZ: Expressed concern that his budget would allow him to make Mr. McPherson happy, but
maybe not a sound expert. This is a neighbor relation issue, not necessarily a Council issue. This
is getting awfully complicated.

Council Meeting Minutes
January 4, 1999
RYE: This is the recommendation of the Planning Commission under Conditional Use ~riteria,
Alternatives would be a policy decision for the Council.
WUELLNER: The noise issue would have been an issue regardless of whether Mr. McPherson
brought it up or not. It is not likely that the Council would consider further revision of the CUP.
SCHENCK: Expressed concern with getting the City involved in noise issues. It seems this is a
landlord/tenant issue. It may open a Pandora's box for the City.
MADER: Clarified that the City's involvement is caused in part because we allowed a Gymnastics
school in an industrial park.
KEDROWSKI: Suggested amending the noise requirement to say "if the neighboring tenants
complain".
PACE: Stated that that standard would be arbitrary. There is a question of enforceability,
MADER: Stated he would be prepared to delete the requirement of approval by a soundproof
professional all together provided that if there is concern by other tenants the Council has the
opportunity to review the CUP at any time.
BOYLES: Clarified that a complaint regarding the CUP would automatically kick in a review
process.
MOTION TO AMEND RESOLUTION 99-XX BY MADER, SECONDED BY WUELLNER
RELATING TO CONDITION #4 TO READ IN ITS ENTIRETY, "THE APPLICANT MUST PROVIDE
NOISE ABA TEMENT MEASURES,"
Attorney PACE advised that the language was vague,
MADER: Stated that in the interest of coming to a resolution, he was comfortable leaving the
language as proposed.
VOTE ON THE MOTION TO AMEND AS STATED: Ayes by Mader, Kedrowski, Petersen,
Wuellner and Schenck, the motion carried.
VOTE TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 99-XX APPROVING THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR
GLEASON'S GYMNASTIC SCHOOL AS AMENDED: Ayes by Mader, Kedrowski, Petersen,
Wuellner and Schenck, the motion carried.
MADER: Provided clarification that the extended hours do not go into effect until these conditions
are met and approve by Mr. Rye.
With no objections from the Council, MADER moved Item 1 DC to the next item on the Agenda
because Councilmember PETERSEN was feeling ill.
