Re: Continued Illegal Dumping in Ravine Area
Halla Great Plains Addition - Project No. 95 -13
Dear Don:
VIA FACSIMILE
Upon site inspection today of the berms in the easterly portion of your subdivision near the ravine
on Outlot A I noticed fresh truck tire tracks back to the ravine area. I was very disappointed to
find approximately five more loads of landscaping debris had been dumped illegally. As you are
aware, the City issued a stop work order on June 23, 1997 for this same violation. Continued
violation of the development contract, as well as the stop work order, will not be tolerated.
Whether or not the dumping was authorized by you, it is your responsibility to see it does not
continue. The landscape debris must be removed from the site and disposed of properly as soon
as possible and no later than August 15, 1997 at which time I will perform another inspection of
the site. If the material is not removed the City will retain a contractor to remove the debris and
bill you accordingly. Your cooperation in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
CITY OF CHANHASSEN

Pursuant to your request, this memo is in response to Councilman Senn's request for additional
information as to potential cost that could be incurred by the city. As my memo (attached) sets forth, the
safe and sober program will cost the city nothing, because the state provides set amounts for jurisdictions
that agree to participate in order to hire off duty officers to enforce certain traffic violations. When this
program does not hire any additional officers - - it only pays for existing officers to work overtime. If
you have any questions, please advise.

agreement to participate, which we have done in the past.

SUBJECT: Accounts Payable Questions
This memo is in response to your request that I explain two billing questions raised by Councilman Senn.
These deal with law enforcement trading cards and children's police coloring books. As you know, a
priority of our overall public safety efforts is proactive. We have many, many components of our public
safety education program, including different ways of interacting positively and educating youth in our
community. To this end, Pillsbury has been generous enough to provide funding for law enforcement
trading cards, which picture uniformed personnel that children interact with in our community. These
officers can follow up on their interaction with children by giving them a trading card that tells a little
bit about the officer, introduces the officer and provides a safety message. In fact, these cards provide a
safe & positive reason for kids and cops to interact. Because this concept fits perfectly into Pillsbury's
efforts to provide funding to efforts that deal with children and families in our community, they have
been good enough to undertake this project with us. This costs the City of Chanhassen absolutely
nothing, as the money was donated to us and the cards are paid for from the donation. The children's
coloring books (copy of cover attached) are budgeted and paid for by us as a children's public safety
education tool. These are used by Crime Prevention Specialist/Public Safety Education Officer Beth
Hoiseth when she talks to neighborhood groups, at bicycle rodeos, to school and other organizations and
groups, or any other time we can interact with young people. Also, every child that accompanies their
parents to the public safety desk leaves with crime prevention information targeted for youngsters.
Every bicycle helmet sold was also accompanied by crime prevention information.
If you have any other questions Todd, do not hesitate to let me know. Thank you.

SUBJECT: 1998 Drug Task Force Resolution
Pursuant to your request, this memo is to provide a response to what I understand was Councilman
Senn's question regarding the viability of this program. Attached is the annual report that appeared in
the Public Safety Commission material after we had received it, and the figures show that activity
continues to occur. While the statistics may not be as high in Chanhassen as in some of the other
participating cities, illegal drug activity in one community has a direct effect in others. Also, in the past
Chanhassen has had higher numbers than other communities.
I apologize if I did not provide enough information on this program; however, the commission has
continued to be updated on this program and receive annual updates from the Drug Task Force. But
because of Councilman Senn's request, I have scheduled the Drug Force Commander Steve Grand, to be
in attendance at the September 11, 1997, 7:00 p.m. Public Safety Commission meeting, to provide a
more detailed report on the activity of the Task Force. I will be inviting the entire city council. It will
also provide an excellent opportunity for the council to attend a commission meeting.
Because Chanhassen is a charter member of the drug task force, and the annual contribution from our
city has not increased over this time, I believe it is an excellent use of our Law Enforcement dollars.

SUBJ: 1998 Southwest Metro Drug Task Force
Cash Match & Resolution
The purpose of this memo is to seek authority from the City Council to enter into the agreement with the
Southwest Metro Drug Task Force to maintain our involvement next year. As in the past, the Task Force
is required to receive a commitment from the cities that participate in order to seek reimbursement
monies from the federal government for next year. The cash match has remained under $10,000.00 per
city since the organization of this multi jurisdictional effort over ten years ago. Chanhassen is a charter
member of the Task Force.
For new members on the council, the Southwest Metro Drug Task Force is made up of the following
agencies /communities: Chanhassen, Chaska, Carver County, South Lake Minnetonka Police, Mound,
Scott County, West Hennepin Public Safety and McCleod County. Resources are pooled to fund for
narcotic agents that work these areas. The results have continued to be positive and well worth the rather
small cost to each city.
If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact me prior to the council meeting at 937 -1900,
ext. 128.
RECOMMENDATION: It is the recommendation of staff that the Chanhassen City Council pass the
attached resolution authorizing Chanhassen, as a member of the Southwest Metro Drug Task Force, to
enter into a contract with the Department of Public Safety in order to obtain financial reimbursement,
and commit to providing the 1998 cash match at or under $10,000.00.

TO: Mayor
City Council
FROM: Scott Harr, Public Safety Director �
DATE: August li, 1997
SUBJECT: Southwest Metro Drug Task Force
I understand that there were some questions about Chanhassen's continuing involvement with the
Southwest Metro Drug Task Force of which we have been a charter member of for ten years now, when
the resolution for our participation in 1995 appeared on the last agenda. I apologize for obviously not
providing sufficient data, but the task force has continued to be such a positive resource for us, together
, �t ith the fact that the data appears in the commission packets when they review it on an annual basis, that
I must admit I did not provide introductory data beyond that which appeared in my August 4 memo to
the council.
Therefore, 1 am pleased to invite you to the September 11, 1997, 7:00 p.m. Public Safety Commission
meeting at which Drug Task Force Commander Ste%e Grand, w ill attend. Commander Grand will
discuss the organization of the Task Force and provide information about their activities, including that
in and affecting Chanhassen. It is always interesting to find out what drugs are "on the street" and
current trends.
I also think this will be an excellent opportunity for the council to attend a regular Public Safety
Commission meeting. This meeting will be held in the Public Safety Conference Room and I would
appreciate you letting me know if this date will work for you.
We look forward to your joining us!!

On behalf of the City of Hamburg and the City of NorwoodYoungAmerica, I would like
to extend my sincere appreciation for your willingness to assist with equipment -pumps
and personnel in the Cities of Hamburg and NorwoodYoungAmerica and on Tuesday,
July 22, 1997 during the flooding incident.
The talents of the your response to NorwoodYoungAmerica as well as your coordination
were very helpful to the successful outcome of the flooding incident in the City. It is
eery reassuring to know that we have neighbors and organizations that are willing to
assist others in the time of need. The cooperation your organization showed is a great
tribute to the emergency management system in Carver County.
Thank you again for your time, efforts, and coordination

Mr. Jim Amundson
8500 Great Plains Boulevard
Chanhassen, MN 55317
Re: Drainage Concerns - 8500 Great Plains Boulevard (Trunk Highway 10 1)
Dear Mr. Amundson:
This letter is a follow up to our field visit and telephone calls concerning the storm drainage
through your property from Trunk Highway 101 and 86th Street. As discussed, Trunk Highway
101 is under Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) jurisdiction. According to Todd
Symons, Maintenance Superintendent for MnDOT, they are not responsible for storm drainage
once it leaves their right -of -way. He indicated that this situation exists all along Trunk Highway
101 as well. The storm drainage culvert underneath Trunk Highway 101 has been in place for
over twenty years. This culvert has maintained the existing drainage pattern from the farm field
and Trunk Highway 101 down to Lake Susan through your property.
With the development of Mission Hills east of Trunk Highway 101, the City requires that the
development maintain predevelopment runoff conditions. This is accomplished by constructing
stormwater ponds and /or reducing the contributing drainage area. Upon review of the
stormwater drainage calculations for Mission Hills, I am confident that prior to development the
contributing drainage area through your property was equal to or greater than the contributing
drainage areas today after development. The existing culvert underneath Trunk Highway 101 is
actually the controlling factor that limits the runoff rate from the east side of Trunk Highway 101.
Rainfall variations will also impact runoff conditions. The quick, intensive storms we have
experienced this year have created problems throughout the City which normally would not have.
It appeared that the neighboring property owner or previous owner attempted to manage the
runoff along /through your property by the use of a semi - circular chute (pipe). At the end of the
chute is where the erosion problem appears to begin. The City has no record of any drainage
easement on your property. The City is not responsible for maintenance of private drainage
systems. We would be happy to suggest mitigation measures to help minimize erosion problems
4.

such as constructing a rip rap channel to direct runoff across the property. I have also discussed
this problem with Phil Elkin, Water Resources Coordinator, to see if the City's Surface Water
Management Plan has any project planned in the area. Unfortunately, the City does not.
However, since this runoff drains directly into Lake Susan, there is some merit to addressing the
situation from a water quality standpoint. From a priority standpoint, this project would not rank
as high as others in the City; nevertheless, we believe a project to address water quality issues
could be budgeted for in the future.
In the next five years, Trunk Highway 101 is proposed to be upgraded. At that time, storm sewer
improvements will be constructed which could resolve the erosion problem you are experiencing.
However, until then the City has no responsibility to fix the erosion problem on your property.
With regards to the drainage problem in the ditch along Trunk Highway 101 near your driveway
culvert, we will look at correcting it in the next week.
If I may be of further assistance, please feel free to call.
Sincerely,
CITY OF CHANHASSEN

1996 HIGHLIGHTS
Watertown Library
During the first week of March the library was closed in
preparation for the move' to their new facility at 309 Lewis Avenue.
With the help of community volunteers, Watertown city employees,
County Sheriff's Department reservists, and County Library staff,
the library reopened on March 11. A railroad theme, which tied in
with the local history of the Luce Line, was used in the
furnishings for the children's area. A grant from the Metropolitan
Regional Arts Program was received for a three - dimensional wood
sculpture (Intarsia) of a train designed by local artist, Josef
Diethelm.
In their first six months at the new site, library circulation
increased 14 %, and 21% more people used the library.
A combined open House was held on September 14, with the Watertown
City Hall and the Friends for Life Foodshelf.
Technoloav Update
Each branch library was provided with additional on -line
information through the Macazine Index, a full text index to over
1,500 periodical titles. This allows the public and staff greater
access to the ever expanding world of information. At this time,
these World Wide Web link -ups are text -based only.
Chanhassen Remodelina
During December the library received approximately 250 additional
square feet for the library's collection and storage area.
Completion is scheduled for early January, 1997.
Survey
A telephone survey of 400 randomly selected residents of Carver
County was conducted by Decision Resources between December 6 and
14. These findings will assist the library system prepare its
Strategic Plan during 1997.
A First!
The library system has experienced many happenings during its 20+
years of service to the county. However, on Saturday, November 23,
a deer unexpectedly crashed through a front window of the Watertown
Library. Although the library was open at the time, order
prevailed due to the quick reactions by a staff member. The deer
"browsed" for awhile and then left by the same window. Minor
damages occurred, but no one was injured - -just totally surprised.
Staff Transitions
Kathy Perschmann was selected as the Branch librarian at Waconia;
Marydel Ketcham became the Reference Librarian at Chaska; Lana
Gayevsky was selected as Library Aide at Chaska.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Park and Recreation Commission
FROM: Todd Hoffman, Park and Recreation Director
DATE: August 20, 1997
SUBJ: Accessibility Inquiry, Greenwood Shores Park
During the week of August 5, Rachael Manteuffel, a Chanhassen resident, contacted me
to inquire about the lack of reasonable public access to Greenwood Shores Park. Ms.
Manteuffel explained that she enjoys visiting the park with her mother who is
uncomfortable walking the extended distance from the park to the nearest available
parking. From the entrance to the park, it is an additional 300 feet to the beach. The
streets in the area of the park are signed "No Parking" for a distance of 600 feet in all
directions. To access the park, Ms. Manteuffel drops her mother and their picnic
belongings off at the park entrance prior to parking her car and re joining her mother.
This situation does not meet the intent of Federal American with Disabilities (ADA)
legislation, and again raises the question of what constitutes reasonable access (for
vehicles) to a public facility.
This issue as it relates to Greenwood Shores Park was debated extensively from 1987 to
1989. At that time the neighborhood successfully lobbied the City Council to reject a
plan to install 4 off - street parking stalls by a 3 to 2 vote. This action was taken prior to
the Americans with Disabilities Act. The City has the obligation to comply with this
legislation.
Ms. Manteuffel has discussed her concerns with officials of the State of Minnesota. It
was their position that if the park is currently out of compliance, a plan must be put in
place to provide accessibility.
Recommendation
it is recommended the Park and Recreation Commission appoint an accessibility
consultant to prepare a feasibility report detailing the necessary steps to bring Greenwood
Shores Park in compliance with the American with Disabilities Act.
