Re: Lotus Lake Association Update
On September 12, 2002, the Lotus Lake Homeoxvners' Association met for the
first time in several years. The meeting xvas called by the co-presidents of the
association (Doug and Beth Bitney) in response to a groxving number of
concerns on the lake. Approximately fifu' (50) residents were in attendance. The
Bitneys invited Carver Count5, Deputs, Chuck I~esling and I to attend the
meeting to provide an update on the status of Lotus Lake as both a recreational
and natural resource.
Following the updates from Deputs, I<iesling and I, the residents in attendance
listed the issues that were of concern to them and conducted a vote to begin to
prioritize lake issues. The top three concerns (in order) were:
1. Public access (specifically the landing)/Quantity of boats/Monitoring
par-king
2. \Vater qualits, (including water clarity and Eurasian xvatermilfoil)
3. Excessive speed/erratic driving
Several residents then volunteered to do research on one of the above issues and
report back to the association at the next meeting.
The association will be meeting again on October 30 to receive updates on each
of the above issues. I will continue to attend these meetings when invited to act
as the City's liaison.
Please contact me with an}' questions you may have.

Re: Proposed Plans for Metropolitan Council Redistricting
The Metropolitan Council invites you to comment on three proposed plans for redistricting the sixteen Council
districts.
Minnesota Statutes 473.123, Subd. 3a states "the legislature shall redraw the boundaries of the council districts
after each dicennial federal census so that each district has substantially equal population." Redistricting is to
take place for the Metropolitan Council each ten years in the year ending with the number "3". Prior to the 1993
legislative session, the Metropolitan Council submitted a redistricting proposal that was adopted by the
Legislature. In keeping with that precedent the Council intends to submit a redistricting recommendation in the
2003 session.
For the past few months a Metropolitan Council Redistricting Advisory Group has been meeting for the purpose
of making a recommendation on new Metropolitan Council districts based on the 2000 census. The advisory
group established several factors as criteria. These include:
· Minimize the splitting of suburban communities.
· Keep each district of substantially equal population.
· Retain two districts entirely with the municipal boundaries of Minneapolis.
· Retain one district entirely with the municipal boundaries of St. Paul.
· Group communities locally that have some common subregional interests.
Prior to the Redistricting Advisory Group (consisting of Council members and public representatives) making a
final plan recommendation to the Metropolitan Council, the Redistricting Advisory Group is seeking public
comment on three proposals that subtantially meet the redistricting principles. The three plans are available on
the Council website at http:llwww, metrocouncil.orqlresourceslresources.htm Go to this link and then scroll down to the
"General" category and click on "Redistricting Proposals" to view these maps. District descriptions and
population information on each district is included in this mailing. If you do not have internet access and wish
copies of the maps please call the Council's Data Center at 651-602-1140.
A public comment meeting will be held on Thursday, October 10, 2002 at 3 p.m. in Room lA of the
Metropolitan Council offices at Meats Park Centre, 230 E. Fifth Street, St. Paul, Minnesota. As alternative
ways to comment, persons may call the Council's public comment line at (651)602-1500 and leave a recorded
message or e-mail the Council's Data Center at data.center~metc.state.mn.us regarding the three redistricting
proposals. Written comments may also be faxed to (651) 602-1464. Ail comments will be accepted until 5 p.m.,
October 11, 2002.
Your comments on the proposed plans are greatly appreciated. The Metropolitan Council tentatively plans to
make a final recommendation at its meeting on October 23.
Sincerely,
Marc Hugunin

Metropolitan Council Redistricting
Example Plan Notes
The redistricting plans on the following pages are examples of plans that demonstrate the
goals of the committee: communities of interest, ideal population and compactness. The
plans also seek to minimize the number of municipalities split outside of Minneapolis and
St. Paul, and to maximize the minority population in two districts.
Some observations have come up regarding the committee's wishes for redistricting, which
may prove helpful in future decision making:
,
A compact southwestern district composed entirely of Carver and Scott counties has a
population of 156,546, or 5.05% below the ideal. Adding small communities such as
Minnetrista and St. Bonifacious can bring the district to under 3% deviation. However,
the key to this district is the inclusion of Chanhassen. Without it, significant parts of
Hennepin or Dakota County (at least 23,705 people) must be included to stay under 3%
deviation. This means the district must have part of Lakeville, Burnsville, Bloomington,
or Eden Prairie - or several suburban city/township combinations.
.
To have two districts completely xvithin Minneapolis and in the 3% deviation range, the
remaining Minneapolis district(s) must contain all or part of at least two cities (or part
of Saint Paul) totaling approximately 100,000 people. In other words, this difference
can not be made up with just Richfield (or Richfield and Fort Shelling), which has less
than 35,000 people.

Dear Loft'
Thc Scope of \\'off< ff)r the LNiC Phase It Guide Plan was rcx'iev,-cd at the last Steering Committee meeting.
Tiao Ouicte Plan is well on its way to delivering a tool to allow COmlUunities to complete between 50-65% of
their Notice of Intent (NOI: thc permit application) and their five-year Storm Water Pollution Prevention
Plan (SWPPP: a su:umarv of which 112tlSt be submitted to tiao NIPCA on 3.10.03) necessary to obtain the
required 7xiS4. Stormwate~' Permit.
I want to be sure that you have realistic expectations regarding what the Guide Plan process will provide to
help your prepare your MS4 permit. Remember that acquiring this permit is just the first step in
implementing the hiS4 stormwater program. COmlUunities should be fully aware that the ilnplementation of
this perlnit is a permanent requirement and will likely become more restrictive as the program evolves.
To be effective a lUcaningful for your community, you ,,,,'ill need to actively participate in the developlnent of
the NOI and $\VPPP. You should already bc thinking about l'escrx'il~g time between mid-October and next
March to complete this process. It is important that )'our community is prepared to use the Guide Plan tool
in a useful and productive maimer. Workshops will be scheduled in various locations around the state the
· week of November 4-8, 2002.
The Steering Committee asked me to impress upon you some kc5" elelnents of perrnit preparation and the use
of the Guide Plan.
The Guide Plan is designed to bring communities through 50 -65% o£perlnit development.
Communities tl~at alreadv have active and comprehensive StOl'mwater lnanagelnent programs may find. at
the end of the Guide Plan process, that they have a permit application that is more than 65% complete.
To maximize the benefits of participating in this process, Guide Plan partners will
need to commit a certain Ievel of effort toward completing the permit application
elements. Designating one key staff person will provide continuity and efficiency.
The level of effort will depend largely upon your community's' existing records,
policies, maps and practices. The time commitment will include:
- Attending workshops - these are wor~ng sessions that will likely take a full day
Doing pre-workshop homework and post-workshop permit preparation
Participating in the on-line help-desk
Fully engaging in the self-assessment component of the Guide Plan
Sharing your storm water management experiences (good and bad) with other
Guide Plan Partners
Long range plmming: Communities should ah'eady be thinking about on-going
activities to implement the permit.
Ammal reports
- Tracking activities
- Cross-departmental activities
- Information management
Mapph~g stormwater system / GIS
Public education and outreach
\\'bile the final delivery date of the Guide Plan is still pending, we expect to have the
Guide Plan in the bands ofconmmnities by mid to late October. You will be notified of
the times and locations for the workshops fox- you to choose fi'om.
Please share this information with other members of your community static pailicularly in
your engineering, plmming and finance departments. It is likely that some communities
will send multiple representatives to the workshops.
For your review is a list of communities who have submitted a letter of intent with the
MC and lhe minules from the most recent Steering Committee meeting.
Thank you for your participation in this project. If you have any questions, please
contact me at 651.281.1256 or rstone®lmnc.om.

md ::vaila!olc at th~ deliverable date of the project currently estimated for October 15 ~00o Staff was
d~'c'cied to send z~ mailin~ to non-partner ~x'IS~ communities ur~in~ them lo become participants in the Guide
Plan project.
Si:ncc concrete financial information is still pc,haling, thc Steering Comnaittee did not discuss the Funding size
of such a fund. rather they discuss, ed the me,-its of establishing a Special ProJect Fund for purposes of an
educational program, supplcn'~cnta] amendments to thc Phase ]t I0an'nit. and protecting tine pc~Tnit.
])I'(~d'CI SC()I)P
Randy Neprash, BRA. A., walked through the Scope of Work for preparing the Guide Plan. The cost of the
project, including a series of workshops across the state, is $165.000.00. LMC and BRAA are finishing the
details of the contract.
The Steerin~ Committee directed LMC and BRAA staff to ensure the Guide Plan has the components
necessary and set the direction for an educational program for the five-year life of the permit. The Guide
Plan will provide the basic, gcnc:'al and obvious materials required to map and give guidance for determining
the path for in~p]e,nen~aAon. The Steering Committee discussed tho fact that a special project fund could be
u source of fundin,~ for thc permit's long-term educational components.
The Steering Committee directed staff to contact John May, DBSP, for a demonstration and opportunity to
learn more about how to bring data management software into the state and to Minnesota cities. Staff was
directed to coordinate a time for the DBSP presentation that will be after the first round of Guide Plan
workshops, but before the March 10, 2003 permit date.
Ex:pectation ma~za gement
The Steering Committee directed staff to send a mailing reinforcing what should a city's realistic
expectations regarding the Guide Plan when preParing an MS4 permit. Cities should be aware that the state
and federal government view this permit as forever ongoing and more restrictive as the program evolves.
Elements to stress in the communiqud are:
The Guide Plan is designed to bring cities throuah 50 - 65% of permit development.
There will be some level of effort on the part of cities to complete the pmTnit. The time commitment will
include:
- Attending workshops - these are workin_o sessions
- Doing pre-workshop homework and pos~-workshop permit preparation
- Participation in the help-desk'
Fully engaging in the self-assessment component of ~he Guide Plan
- Long range planning' Cities need to start thinking about on-_ooin~ activities once the permit is filed.
- ,Annual reports ~ "'
- Tracking activities
- Cross departmental activities
- Information management
- Mapping stormwater system/GIS
- PuNic education and outreach
Re~'ie~' Panels
The Steering Committee established four review panels to provide feedback to BRAA on each milestone in
the development of the Guide Plan. The bulk of the review panel work will be conducted via electronic

Ms. Bev Stofferahn
Superintendent of chaska School District #112
11 Peavey Road
Chaska, Mn. 55318
Dear Bev:
The purpose of rny leEer is to provide the Did"ici with comments from the C;..h/ of
Chaska regarding the School Distrio:'.s long-term ~ciiib/ plan. Rrst, the Cib/wishes to
compliment the School Board for displaying the foresight and lea~lership to undertake
this aggressive planning process. We do betieve that a long-range plan wfii greatly
enhance our communibF's -abilib/ to respond to the flJuJre and to meet the long-term
educational needs of our children.
'i-;ne following are specific commend re,are;rig various elements of -the plan.
Demographics
Generally, the City of Chaska believes tha~ 5arbara Luke,.*m,,an's demographic foreca~
relative to the City' is reaii~ic, al:hough it may be conservative. Based on ~urrent
development tre. nds, we anticipate approximately 450 new living units annually through
2010, when we foreca~ the population of Chaska to be 28,500. By the year 207_0 we
do anticipate that Chaska would be fu!iy developed and at its ultimate population
between 34,000 and 37,000 peopie.
E[ementa~z Schools
Based on the draft facilities model through the planning period, the Db.-tr.,i~ would in De
future need to constru~ ~¢o new elementary schools and ane¢/ Early Childhood
Learning Center. ]:n developing these facilities, Chaska would urge the Distr[~ to
consider tJ~e following:
A,
Siting the facilities to assure that they are neighborhood based and walk-
able to the maximum number of students.
B,
Place a priori~ on parroting with the local governmental units in co-
locating the elementary schools within neighborhood parks to minimize
land acquisition co~%s and maximize public resources.
City Of C[l kal Ivtinnesota on~ ci:v. Ha:l Plaza 553.18-1962 Phone ...... .-qgp/-~4,..-,.~,~-~, F&x 952/448-9300
Relative to siting future facilities, Chaska would expect tha~. the next, elementarf school
would be constructed on the site owned by the District in Victoria. ]:n our long-range
land use planning, we have identified two future potential elementar~ schoo! sites; one
within the current Chaska Township area and the other in the area generally south of
Victoria Drive. Attached, is a map identifying these potential loca~ons. In both of these
locations, Chaska would anticipate par*d~ering with the District to provide the land a~: no
cost, based on the Clover Riccje Elementaw School model.
Se_condary Schools
Recognizing that a secondary school wilt reqcire a minimum site of ~0-100 acres, we do
not believe that there is an appropriate site wi~in the bour. daries of Chaska for a new
high school. Consequen~Jy the City's planning process wou!d anticipate that any new
high school or middle school facility would be constru~ed outside of our municipal
boundaries. Generally, ~he City of Chaska supports the concept of ~;o moderate sized
high schools, as opposed to a single mega high school facility, if a sec.~nd high schoo! is
constrc'cted, we would urge the Distr!~ to consider municipal boundaries when
establishing a~endance bound-aries for the facilities. Our e×pectations would be tjnat all
Chaska high school students would a~end a single facili~, and not be split between
schools,
Financial ]:mplicatiors
The City recognizes that the District will need Lo make a significant long-term investment
in the construddon of new facilities to meet growing enrollment: needs. ]:n the past., the
District, along wit, h other area governments, have committed ~he necessary resources to
prepare long-term financial proje~ons. ]:n preparing these proje~ons, ~:e pardcfpants
have recognized that it is prudent i:o jointly plan for capital projects in order to minimize
let',g-term impa~ on our joint t~×payers. ConsequentJy, we would urge the District to
continue to partJcipate in the joint planning process a,~.d to closely analyze the impact of
these capital projects as they relate .~o long-term property tax trends. Unti! such time as
the properb/tax implication of the Iong-terl,-n facilitJes plan is be~er understood, the Ci~,
Council cannot feel comfortable endorsing a specific p!an.
We truly appredaEe the opportunic,/ to comment oq the Dis;rict's long-term plans and
the Cif:y of Chaska looks fon,*iard to maintaining a close partnership with [:.he Dist?ict in
implementing these fluture visions. ]:f we can be of any assistance in developing those
visions, please feel free to ccr, tact Ci~' Staff at your conve~,ience.

Although the bldg. permit has been issued, the bldg. inspection dept. still needs to address some
issues that Steve Torell itemized in his e-mail to Barry Petit on June 4, 2002. MS&R gave
Steve Torell a letter addressing issues No. 1 - 24. Response to the remaining items will be
forthcoming. Steve Torell's letter dated August 6, 2002 was distributed at the progress meeting
wherein he addresses his original March 20, 2002 plan review letter and MS&R's response to
that letter which was given to Steve at last week's progress meeting. MS&R ,,',,ill review
Steve's comments and will respond to open issues accordingly. MS&P, distributed their letter
dated August 21,2002 to Justin Miller who will forward it to Steve Torell, xvhich is a response
to the Cits"s plan review letter addressing open issues. There are still some issues, which
cannot be addressed due to potential modifications recently initiated. These xvill be addressed
when the final scope has been established. Barry Petit indicated that the energy calculation for
the building envelope is perhaps tile most significant outstanding item yet to be submitted to
SteVe Torcll. Barry Petit presented requested information to Justin Miller at the meeting which
will be forwarded to Steve Torell. Steve Torell stated the following items are still outstanding:
1. ASI l& 3

Steve Torcll stated that all remaining smoke/fire dampers may be deleted fi'om the project. Per
the code, these elements arc not necessary. Steve will speak with the'mechanical engineer in
this regard. Barry Petit will verify with Steve Torell/file has had conversation with the
mechanical engineer regarding the dampers. Ban-5, Petit indicated that Steve Torell has talked
to the mechanical engineer and is of the opinion that no smoke or fire dampers are needed on
the project. Smoke detectors however, are required. A proposal request will be issued by
MS&R to formally delete the smoke and fire dampers which were previously added to the scope
of work and subsequently struck from the returned CO #1. A proposal request is forthcoming
from MS&R that will document final status of the smoke and fire dampers.

K-A requested that the structural engineer revie~v the extent of soil correction work at the south
property line. As the location of the utilities and fiber optic cabling is further to the north than
originally indicated on the documents, the soil correction work now encompasses the area
xvhere the utilities are located. Avoiding these lines will reduce the cost of soil correction in
these areas. Jim Packard has forxvarded types and locations of existing utilities running along
the south property line and has forwarded this information to the structural eng/neer. It may be
necessary to temporarily support the sanitary sewer line as the soil correction work is underway.
Also, the structural engineer may drop footing elevation at the porches adjacent to the fiber
optic line so if there is work to be performed on this line at a future date, there would be no
concern for undermining the footing. The contractor awaits final decision in this matter. Barry
Petit indicated that the structural engineer was awaiting information from GME Consultants
prior to finalizing any documentation. Barry will contact Meyer, Borgman & Johnson after the
meeting to see if they have received this information from GME. MS&R indicated that the
forthcoming information will be general in nature as far as the concept is concerned and the
extent of work will be determined by the existing conditions encountered which will be closely
monitored by GME. K-A indicated that this work will start immediately after the ground
becomes more workable and therefore requires this information as soon as possible to advise
and coordinate their sub-contractors. A meeting xvith GME and MB&J has tentatively been
scheduled for Fri. morning to review additional 6" piping found in the utility trench running
westerly towards Kerber Blvd. This p/ping appears to have stubbed off the water main running
north and south in the utility trench. GME's concern is that the soil below the pipe may require
soil correction similar to what we are experiencing in the north and south utility trench. GME
has requested that we excavate along the newly discovered pipe to determine the soil
conditions. If thc pipe extends to any len~h to the west it may run under the masonry tower
recently constructed. Discussions of this issue together with tile south foundation wall concerns
adjacent to the existing ut/1/ty easement will be reviewed. The City located documents which
delineated tile extent of piping recently found. Two runs extend to the west approximately 20'
and two runs extend to the east approximately 10'. Ail pipe terminations had gate valves in
anticipation of future devel6pment of the property. All piping has been removed and no
additional soil correct/on was required below the piping runs. K-A requested a copy of the
historic document for incorporation into their documents. Three proposals were received from
the structural engineer addressing the corrective work along the south buildinz l/ne. They
consisted of the follo~ving: ~
1. Over excavation
2. Sheeting
3. Drilled reinforced concrete piers.
Additionally, a meeting was held on Tues., Sept. 10 wherein GME proposed a fourth option
w/th the use of a geopier system. All options are currently under reviexv but it appears that the
geopier system is the most viable. We are awaiting a cost proposal from the Geopier
Foundation Company which should be received no later than the end of the week. A cost
proposal from Geopier Foundation Co. was received and the contractor was directed to proceed
with this method accordingly. K-A requested a modified cost proposal excluding design
liabilities which Geopier has agreed to do. A separate design proposal w/Il be submitted to
MS&R which was agreeable with Barry Petit. K-A indicated the installation would take
approximately one day and that crews could be available next week after execution of the
contract agreement and insurance certificates have been submitted. A CCD will be issued to
direct us to proceed w/th this work. K-A stated that the Geopier technical documents have been
issued lo MS&R directly. MS&R will forward these documents to K-A for their use. K-A also
understands via Email that the design proposal for the Geopier system has been received and
approved by MS&R. Contracts have been executed and insurance certificates received and
technicians and equipment are mobilized and should be arriving at the jobsite this
afternoon for commencement of work on Friday.

13.1 K-A expressed potential concern for frost getting under the interior column pads which are
currently shalloxv in case the building is not enclosed prior to freezing weather. Bill Cox
indicated that he would request a budget estimate from the excavator and concrete
subcontractors to drop the footings to frost elevation. K-A presented a cost proposal in the
amount of approximately $10,000.00 to lower all interior column pad footings to frost elevation.
Another alternate is being reviewed to include rigid insulation installed at the edges of the
interior column pads extending out approximately 2-3 ft. which will prevent frost from
infiltrating under the concrete structure. MS&R will advise if this alternative method is
acceptable. The rigid insulation system to protect the interior column pad footings from frost

14.1 Teresa Burgess requested an updated schedule. K-A stated that a revised schedule would be
made available by next meeting. K-A indicated the construction schedule cannot be updated
until the mud slab at the parking ramp structure is poured, which has been hindered by the
weather, and the Geopier system has been scheduled for the south wall of the main library
building. Any update until these activities have been completed or scheduled would be
speculative. Teresa Burgess last week indicated that a backup plan for parking would be
prepared should the ramp upper deck not be available this Fall due to weather and soil
conditions.
