PARKS ADVISORY COMMITTEE MEETING
MINUTES
FEBRUARY 12, 1996
The Parks Advisory Committee meeting was called to order by Chairman, Ron Ceminsky at 9: 10
p.m. on Monday, February 12, 1996. Members present were Kathy Smith, Bob Rykken, Thea
Fluhrer, Tom Reddinger, Tom Schutz, Pat Heaney and Ron Ceminsky. Staff members present
were Paul Hokeness, Director of Parks and Recreation, Bret Woodson, Recreation Supervisor,
and Lynn Lake, Parks and Recreation Secretary.
The minutes from the January 8, 1996 meeting were reviewed.
BOB RYKKEN MADE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE MINUTES FROM THE JANUARY
8, 1996 MEETING. KATHY SMITH SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION WAS
APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY.
Ron asked Paul for Staff Reports.
Paul stated that the intern Park Patrol Officer will begin in April and work evenings and
weekends throughout the summer. He will have an unmarked car, no gun, regular uniform and
some form of identification to show he is a Park Patrol Officer. We soon complete a position
description and I will give you a copy when this is finalized. We will include this seasonal
position into the 1997 budget.
In the past, Sand Point Park has allowed overflow parking in the grass next to the parking lot.
This will no longer be happening due to destruction of the grass as well as taking up the open
space. We will lose revenue of close to $9,500 a year.
Tom Reddinger commented as to what happens when the DNR area is full.
Paul stated we will have 15 stalls for car/trailer parking. We will keep this regulated, and if
anyone abuses the system, the Park Patrol Officer will be able to tag them.
The Memorial Park building is 50% complete and consists of restrooms, storage and a
. concession area. The baseball field backstop came down from the ice storm and will be
replaced. Hopefully, our insurance will cover the damage.
We are starting an "Adopt-A-Park" program this spring. When a park is adopted we will put a
sign at the park which will state which organization/people have adopted the park.
Bret updated the committee on the Winter Program schedule. The Sledding Party was canceled
again due to the lack of snow and the hill being too icy. We will keep the rinks open for another
week or at least until President's Day.
Our activities left for the winter program will be during the week of Spring Break. We will be
going to a Timberwolves game.

Our Dance Program Recital will be held the first weekend in May, the 4th and 5th.
The Spring Brochure will go out at the end of March and registration will be the last week in
March and first week of April.
Ron asked for comments in the Open Forum.
Thea questioned how to get more people involved in the Lakefront Park Master Plan besides the
people who live right by Lakefront. She doesn't think that people feel that this a Community
Park.
Paul said we have had many articles in the paper about what we want to do and when the
meetings are being held. We sent out over 300 letters to invite people to come to these meetings
and give their input.
Ron asked for Old Business. Specifically, for the list of community supporters that we believe
would be interested in supporting a referendum.
Paul stated that a list of possible supporters was going to be generated by the PAC members.
There was discussion regarding the community supporters, and that there were not many people
willing to step forward at this time, as many had other commitments.
--
Paul stated that the committee should continue to look for community supporters.
Referendum discussions continued. Pat Heaney suggested that maybe we have to cut some
people off of field availability to get a reaction. If we say the adults cannot play until all the kids
games are done for the week or vice versa.
Paul stated that adults may just go to other communities to play. Where as kids do not have the
opportunities to go other places.
Bob asked Paul what exactly is it that we need to do to get this referendum going.
Paul stated that the Council does not want the Parks Community be the sole leaders of this
Referendum. They want the community to come forward and say that they would support a
referendum. We need some sort of a petition to get a feel of where we are at.
Bob said that he didn't see any problem in the PAC leading the referendum and as they are the
community representatives. We should be the ones to start the petition, and get the ball rolling.
How can we start the petition?
Tom Reddinger said registration for P.L.A.y. Baseball is starting this Saturday.
We should put together a questionnaire that we can hand out to the people who are standing in
line to register to get a feel of what people want. We need to get four people there to hand out
questionnaires and collect data.
There was discussion as to how to set this form up. Whether it be a questionnaire or just a
signature.
PAC296.DOC
Tom Reddinger stated we need someone from the committee to hand this out.
Ron stated we need to split it up amongst ourselves to hand out the form, collect the information,
and answer any questions.
Tom Reddinger said it is up to us as a committee to get this going and doing something about it.
We keep talking about it but never seem to get started.
Everyone agreed that we need to get this questionnaire out in order to see where we stand in
regards to community support of a referendum.
New Business.
Paul said we are rewriting the "Park Dedication Ordinance" trying to eliminate the amount of
credit which is given to wetlands we receive from developers. We want to require that we get
good top soil, grading and turf. Our current needs are for flat areas which can be developed into
playfields.
Tom Schutz requested a list of all park rules and ordinances. Paul said that he is in the process
of rewriting the rules and ordinances and will provide the rewrites at the March meeting.
Ron stated next meeting will be Monday, March 11, 1996 from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m.
PAT HEANEY MADE A MOTION TO ADJOURN THE MEETING. BOB RYKKEN

LAKE FRONT MASTER PLAN PUBLIC MEETING
MINUTES
FEBRUARY 12, 1996
7:00 P.M.
The public meeting for the Lakefront Park Master Plan started at 7:05 p.m. There was a brief
introduction by Paul Hokeness and the PAC members who were present Thea Fluhrer, Tom
Schutz, Kathy Smith, Pat Heaney, Tom Reddinger, Bob Rykken and Ron Ceminsky. Jeff
Schoenbauer and Jason Amberg represented the consulting firm of Brauer and Assoc. There
were 20 community members present.
We thank you for coming out again to night and sticking with us through this process. My name
is Jeff Schoenbauer from Brauer & Assoc. I am the VP of the firm and Project Manager on this
planning process. With me is Jason Amberg who is one of our staff landscape architects and
technology experts. He has been working with me on this plan.
What you see before you are the schematic design concepts. What we are trying to accomplish is
to look at the Brauer concept and get a direction from you and start to refine the concept into a
preliminary Master Plan and ultimately a Master Plan. Our objectives tonight are to recheck the
consensus on the broad concept issue and to go through the program statement and make sure we
have the facilities that you feel we need as most desirable on this plan. Tonight I will walk
through these plans and then we will open it up for community discussion and ultimately come
up with a consensus as we move forward.
As you recall from our last meeting, we see the park serving as a Community Park. That
includes active recreation and passive recreation and a very important component to this park is
the natural resource preservation. The handout will show you how we as designers looked up
initial parcel properties and how we started to develop our focus. Look at the natural resource
zone outlined we really focus on the western part of the park. On each of these concepts we are
not looking impact the natural resources. We consider the natural resources a component as an
inherent part of the park and there is certainly a strong desire to preserve that and possibly
expand. Active recreation will have its own area which is close to where the area is already. We
need to reorganize the active area of the park and make it more efficient and more appealing.
The purchase of the Kop property is being investigated by the city. This property will be an
essential component of the park. The beach area will be an active space and stay secluded and
small. The general land use zones really drive how we look at the sites and the primary assets of
each concept.
Concept A is a linear access that would access off of Main and winds through the park and
essentially services all the active and natural areas of the park. There will be additional trail
lengths with a boardwalk along the ponds, possibly with bridge over the ponds. The Kop Farm
will be left as a historic setting. There will be overlooks and an outdoor classroom facility for
groups to meet. There is an amphitheater which would include a bandshell with a grassy area to
sit and enjoy your Playin in the Park on Thursdays as well as other concerts.

Concept B focuses on a looped road system as well as consolidated parking for active uses. This
will keep the vehicles associated with more active uses on the perimeter or as much on the
perimeter as possible. A looped road through the park includes a one-way internal drive that
focuses on a nice drive through the park and services the amenities on the way. Similar activity
as Concept A.
Concept C really brings the parking and vehicle access issues out to the perimeter of the site and
essentially we have a large parking lot that serves the active recreation and in this case serve a
picnic area which would still have to come off of the original access. This concept is turned
around from the other two, but contains similar activity areas as other two.
Comments by the community:
Likes all three concepts but would like to see the bathroom and playground area in view
of the athletic fields for parents who are there watching children in a game and
watching other children play.
Direction of fields lay-out so as the evening sun is not directly in your eyes.
How handicap accessible is this going to be.
Current access road is hazardous.
Change access road completely.
One resident concerned where her land butts up to the pond if that will run into her land
or not or if the city is willing to buy her land.
Intersection to access is unsafe.
Like Concept C which keeps the most natural areas.
The primary issue is to purchase the Kop Farm.
They like the idea of the Kop Farm Historic Site.
They like Concept A with Concept Broad.
How big is the amphitheater going to be? I'm not interested in having something
for big concerts, i.e. Rolling Stones.
Can we make a loop road which will start in town and come out down by Main or
Ridgemont.
We need a study on traffic in the area and which plan will better facilitate that traffic.
Is this going to be an athletic complex or more a community park?
PAC296.DOC
In conclusion Jeff stated, the next time we get together we will fine tune Concept A with
Concept B roadway. Continued discussion with Paul and staff on any ideas that still may be
floating out there. We will focus on a single concept and confirm that we have included all the
amenities you want. We can assume that the present access is not acceptable to anyone. We will
look into a study into regards to traffic to best facilitate the access. We will make every effort to
set-up the fields in view of the bathrooms/playground areas. We will not be purchasing land for
the trail around the Ponds. If the land is owned by someone then we will simply eliminate the
trail. We will check into the plats for confirmation as to specifics. The amphitheater will be
considered more like a bandshell with small groups consisting of community get together's.
This will be built for about 200 people to sit around the stage and listen or watch the
entertainment. We will have handicap accessibility to the beach. Remember we want to keep
this as a community park nQt an athletic complex. The key is to purchase the Kop Farm and
make that a historic area which seems to be unanimous to everyone.
At our next meeting we will have our staff Ecologist here to discuss some interesting things
about the area and give you some more ideas.

Parks Advisory Committee
Paul Hokeness
March 6, 1996
March 11th meeting
Brauer and Associates will be presenting the Lakefront Park Master plan and hopeful the
community members which attend the meeting will be satisfied that they have had their
areas of concern addressed. I'm excited about finally getting to the point where we will
have a plan that we can take it to the council and let them know that this is a plan which
the community wants and has agreed upon.
I understand our referendum survey went well and that we are getting a positive response.
Unfortunately we missed summer soccer registration. We will talk more at the meeting
about our next focus group.
This will be Lynn's last P.A.C. meeting as she is moving out of state. We will miss her
and her smile.
I have include a copy of the Capital Improvement Program for your review. Now that I
have a good understanding of our park system I believe that it is necessary to make some
changes to the C.I.P. and I will discuss these with you on Monday night. As you can see
by the 1996 projects list I am planning on making some changes this year and think that
we should rethink future years projects.
I have included a letter from Marlene Vogel which is going into the American. This
letter will be to our benefit as we have included library remodeling as one of the
referendum items.
Included is a letter from a boy scout which supports our efforts at Lakefront Park.
Tom Schutz had asked for a copy of the park ordinances. I have included a copy of the
ordinance with the revisions that were made by our city attorney. Please review and
comment.
Thanks,

Re: Amendments to City Park and City Snowmobile Ordinances
Dear Paul:
Enclosed are suggested amendments to the City's park and snowmobile ordinances.
Specifically I have added the section dealing with access to lakes through park property. I
have made several other somewhat minor suggestions and in a few instances, highlighted
issues for you to consider.
I am also enclosing park and snowmobile ordinances from other jurisdictions. I
thought they might be useful in suggesting ideas you may want to consider.
.
Please let me know if there is anything further I can do on these two chapters. I will
begin working on the special assessment questions we discussed.
Sincerely,
~~

Lake Advisory Committee
FROM:
Frank Boyles, City Manager
DATE:
March 8, 1996
RE:
Adoption of 1997-2001 Capital Improvement Program
One of the prime documents through which the City of Prior Lake allocates its financial resources for the
development of infrastructure and public facilities is the Capital Improvement Program. The Capital
Improvement Program is composed of City, developer and county initiated improvement projects for
streets, sewer, water, storm water drainage, parks, trails, and water quality. The projects are listed by
priority for the next five years together with one or more funding sources.
Since this an important planning document to the City Council, it is important that the input of the City's
various advisory boards and committees be solicited. Therefore, I am asking that each of the advisory
boards and committees complete the following review:
1. Review the attached 1996-2000 Capital Improvement Program to become familiar with
the projects it contains.
2. Review those projects within your responsibility area. Discuss the timeline for the
projects with the City staff liaison to your committee, and provide your suggestions for
how the projects should be prioritized.
3. Once the draft 1997-2001 Capital Improvement Program is available on May 6, we will
provide it to commission and committee members for review and comments.
4. Submit your reactions to the proposed 1997-2001 program to the City Council at their
May 20 public informational meeting. I would suggest that the chairs of each of the
respective committees be present at that meeting or submit a brief memorandum to the
Council with their views.
I expect that the Council will take action to approve the 1997-2001 Capital Improvement Program at their
May 20 meeting or soon thereafter. I have enclosed for your information the tentative timetable for
approval of the Capital Improvement Program.
If you have any questions feel free to contact your staff liaison.

Ralph Teschner, Finance Director
1997 Capital Improvement Program
March 5, 1996
The 1997-2001 CIP program process will be similar to last year with a continued effort to
condense the Capital Improvement Program document to a more realistic schedule of
implementation.
The forms are to be completed in a finished format according to the following method:
Project information to be entered directly onto the prototype form within the
Excel spreadsheet software located on the pc network system. Ken Sherman will
coordinate the assemblance of the individual documents.
Each project will require a separate form and should be completed with as much supporting text _"\
documentation provided as possible within the outlined boxes. For the most part you will
basically be refining program requests for '97 thru '00 with the addition of year 2001. As
customary, the first year is the most important due to its implementation in the upcoming budget
and construction year.
Attached is a schedule outlining the timetable for completion. As indicated, the first draft is to be
concluded in 30 days with departmental review scheduled for the latter two weeks in May. The
purpose for this discussion will be to prioritize and rank the individual projects.
Subsequently, the 1997 CIP is anticipated to be presented for review by the City Council on May
20, 1996.
Thanks for your participation and cooperation regarding this important program.

1996 PROJECTS
Attached is a copy of the 1996 park and recreation department projects list. It does vary
somewhat from the C.I.P. but as I had mentioned to you I believe that we should
reprioritize some of our projects. We do not plan on constructing any new picnic shelters
at this time but will construct enclosures for our portable restrooms. The neighbors will
appreciate this, aesthetically it's a good move, and the toilets can't get tipped. We are
going to put park development at the Wild's on hold for a while until I get a better
understanding of what is needed there. We will divert some of our funds to the
installation of modular playground equipment which we plan on installing in five parks
this summer.
Each year I would like to upgrade one or two of our older parks, this year we would do
Green Oaks and Northwood. Green Oaks would get new playground equipment, a
basketball court, replace the backstop, regrade and reseed. This park was built in 1977
and in dire need of a facelift. We plan on doing some minor regrading at Northwoods
and installing a new playground. We also plan on starting the development of Indian
Ridge, which has been sitting on hold for a number of years. The neighbors have been
very patient and I think that it's time to make some improvements to their park.
This is a very ambitious list but we feel that it is manageable. We will contract the
installation of the playgrounds, paths, backstops and basketball courts. The toilet
enclosures will be constructed by the Sentence To Service crew. Al and I will be hustling
to coordinate all of these projects and the crew will be busy doing site prep and finish
work but if we manage to complete all of these projects we are taking a giant step
towards improving our park system.

To:
Jim Riccioli, Editor
Prior Lake AMERICAN
From:
Marlene Vogel
Dear Editor:
I so much enjoy volunteering as a storyteller at the Prior Lake Library.
Thursday mornings are times when I can see children of the community together
with their parents or daycare childraisers. Reading to kids is something I always
enjoyed doing for our own six children as well as for students in the classrooms
where I worked as a paraprofessional teaching assistant. Now the library offers me
this great opportunity to care about children growing up in the late 1990's.
Opportunity is what libraries are designed to give. Today's libraries
provide so much more to community members than libraries of the past. I re-
member going to the Riverview Branch of the St. Paul Library system on the West
Side of St. Paul. It was a quiet place filled with books. There were cushioned
window benches and some tables and chairs. We waited there after school
sometimes for my Dad to pick us up with the car. We lived two miles from school
and when the weather was inclement Dad would go out of his way to bring us home.
When we waited at the library we could read books or look at pictures
through stereoscopes, and, of course, check out books to take home. After a long
day at school, we often needed to request a key from the librarian to use the remote
basement lavatories. It was dark down there and it spooked me to go there alone.
That brings me back to today's Prior Lake Library. While this library is
truly a livingroom of our community, it definitely needs some improvements. The
Prior Lake Library is a busy, busy, place, and not often truly quiet. There are some
quieter times, but often when I have been there, many people have sought and been
given the assistance of the library staff.
One day not too long ago, I entered the building to discover raindrops
falling through the roof onto the carpet below--in several places. There were
..,.~,_~_...,_...~_...~_"_..___,..uu...-.~~.. . ~,
buckets set out and we could hear the drip, drip of water falling from the ceiling.
If I need a restroom, I need to go down the stairs to the basement.
There are requirements to serve handicapped people that need to be met. I've
noticed also the need for a waterfountain, a place to hang coats, a meeting room,
places for privacy. Enthusiastic children could make more noise and their parents
feel more relaxed if there were an enclosed place for children's library activities.
Reading and computer nooks, places for Adult Basic Education, would serve the
community well. Hilary Toren, the librarian, has voiced a need for all these things,
and in particular, a need for space for more books and other library lending
materials.
I've seen people arrive at the library before noon, amazed that it is not yet
open. And the staff runs practically ragged meeting people's needs at times.
While Scott County is responsible for furnishings, equipment,' and
materials, the City of Prior Lake is designated to provide a building and
maintenance. An organization of volunteers, Prior Lake Friends of the Library,
also contributes its efforts to the facility. I believe it is time for these entities to
take a close look at the needs of the Prior Lake Library and meet them soon to the
benefit of the citizens.
Recently a number of attractive blue chairs have been added to help
make people comfortable sitting in the library. Larger efforts have been made
in other towns. Now it is Prior Lake's turn to receive attention!

Dear Mayer Andren,
As a member of Boy Scouts of America Troop 331 here in prior Lake, I am
writing to you as part of my Citizenship in the Community merit badge work.
Since we moved to Prior Lake six years ago, we have enjoyed the many beautiful
areas in the city, particularly Lakefront Park. As you know, Lakefront Park is a very busy
place with PLAY and other activities going on there. Because of that, 1 would like to
suggest you consider some type of improved s..nace for the parking area in your budget
this year. As it is now the parking lot is very muddy during wet weather creating a
hazard for walking or driving. In addition, ears are parked in a random fashion creating
congestion and a bard surface would help keep parking more organized.
lknow that you and the City Council are proud of the fine facilities we have here
for recreation and I hope you will consider my suggestion in your plans. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Paul Stahler

PARK DEDICATION ORDINANCE
Following discussions with Don Rye, Suesan Pace, and several other communities I
believe that I have written an ordinance which will meet the needs of our community as ;
well as address some of the issues which were raised by the Council and Parks Advisory
Committee. The ordinance revision would address the following issues:
A. Accepting wetlands as park dedication. This would give no credit for wetlands.
B. The condition of the dedicated parcel. This would require the developer to grade
the park per our specifications.
C. Lack of topsoil. Developers would not be able to strip the topsoil on the
dedicated parcel.
D. Turf establishment. If called for the developer would be required to establish turf.
E. Developable parkland. We would not be giving full credit for land that is not
conducive to recreational activities. Our current needs are for land which can be
developed as playfields. We currently have over 55% of our parkland that is in a
natural state, i.e. wetlands, woodlands, steep slopes, etc.. We could still give
partial credit for natural areas if we felt that it met community needs.
I believe that this revision would put us in control of the land which is dedicated and we
would no longer be left with undesirable parkland or land which costs the city a great deal
to develop.
If you have any suggestions please let me know and I will proceed. Attached is a copy of
the current and revised ordinance.

March 11 th meeting
Brauer and Associates will be presenting the Lakefront Park Master plan and hopeful the
community members which attend the meeting will be satisfied that they have had their
areas of concern addressed. I'm excited about finally getting to the point where we will
have a plan that we can take it to the council and let them know that this is a plan which
the community wants and has agreed upon.
I understand our referendum survey went well and that we are getting a positive response.
Unfortunately we missed summer soccer registration. We will talk more at the meeting
about our next focus group.
This will be Lynn's last P.A.C. meeting as she is moving out of state. We will miss her
and her smile.
I have include a copy of the Capital Improvement Program for your review. Now that I
have a good understanding of our park system I believe that it is necessary to make some
changes to the C.I.P. and I will discuss these with you on Monday night. As you can see
by the 1996 projects list I am planning on making some changes this year and think that
we should rethink future years projects.
I have included a letter from Marlene Vogel which is going into the American. This
letter will be to our benefit as we have included library remodeling as one of the
referendum items.
Included is a letter from a boy scout which supports our efforts at Lakefront Park.
Tom Schutz had asked for a copy of the park ordinances. I have included a copy of the
ordinance with the revisions that were made by our city attorney. Please review and
comment.

Understanding of Issues
The RFP and meeting with city staff has provided us with a fairly
in-depth understanding of the issues facing the development of this
park. The following table defmes our initial approach to these issues.

This section identifies the major activities to be conducted as part of the Master Plan for
Lakefront Park. Each of the major work tasks is identified and details should be provided
in the consultant proposal. Other miscellaneous tasks related to the major work
components may be required by the consultant. In each task, the consultant will be taking
the lead role, staff will be assisting by providing information and discussing study results in
progress. Following task #6, the consultant will confer with the City staff to determine the
direction to be pursued in the final task step. Attendance at two Meetings of the Council
and two Park Advisory Committee meetings will be required.
Taskl: There have been many suggestions as to uses which should be contained in the park.
Outline both adverse and positive affects of the suggested uses that follow:
Cross Country Ski Trails
Beach access
Baseball field
Softball fields
Waterslide
Historical Farm
Tennis courts
Fishing Pier
Public Boat access
Sliding Hill
Paved Trails
Soccer/Football fields
Picnic shelters
Play structure
Nature Center
Marina
Amphitheater
Man-made swimming area

Task 2: Review above work product with Park Advisory Committee to reduce to a reasonable
number of uses.
Task 3: Provide three scenarios containing the uses identified in Task 2. Provide a conceptual
plan for each.
Task 4: Revise the advantages and disadvantages of the three scenarios with the Park Advisory
Committee and staff to fine tune each scenario and reduce to a single scenario.
Task 5: Prepare a final Conceptual Plan including revisions agreed to in Task 4. Also provide
cost estimates for each proposed use or amenity and a phasing plan for the construction of each in
the extent that funding is not immediately available.
Task 6: Prepare final master plan report including sketches, cost estimates, phasing plan and
recommendation to staff for review and comment.
