SUBJ: New Chanhassen Jaycees 1
As you are both aware, a new Jaycees Chapter has formed in Chanhassen. The Jaycees 1
organization maintains active members from age 21-40. Ms. Roberta Johnson, the Jaycees
President, and Mr. Ken Larson met with me last week expressing their desire to become involved
in community activities, with an emphasis being placed on teens. The Jaycees are considering
becoming a member of the upcoming Adopt a Park Program, and are currently coordinating the
dunk tank for the Fourth of July Celebration. 1
You can both be of assistance to the Jaycees by continuing to inform them of upcoming
community activities which they can become involved with. As a new chapter, their current
resources are mainly in the area of volunteer labor. Ms. Johnson resides at 7473 Saratoga Drive,

1 The City of Chanhassen is concerned with the health of you, your family, and others in our
community. We have provided the safest and most reliable water supply possible. Our
ongoing water - testing program verifies the excellent quality of your drinking water which
meets all the standards set by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA)
and Minnesota Department of Health.
' This year, as a result of legislation written by Congress, a new USEPA standard for lead
becomes effective. This standard is intended to help communities around the nation reduce
their exposure to lead in drinking water, and thereby, lower their exposure to lead from all
' sources, including air, lead -based paint, soil, and dust. Lead paint is the main source of lead
poisoning; however, lead contamination from water can contribute 10 to 20 percent of a
person's exposure.
1 The City of Chanhassen will join more than 60,000 public water supply systems throughout
the country to begin testing for lead and copper at household taps. Although the water we
' supply to you is free of lead contamination at the source, lead may be dissolved from your
piping system into your tap water if:
* You have a lead service line connecting your home to the watermain, or
• Your home has lead pipes, or
• You have soldered joints in your household copper piping installed from 1983 to
1 1986.
The City of Chanhassen will begin the lead - testing program on July 1, 1992. Approximately
' 60 homes served by the Chanhassen water system will be selected to participate as a sample
test site. Homes will be selected if they fall into one of the above - mentioned categories.
The test results generated from these sample sites will be used to determine the level of
lead exposure from tap water in our community, and what action, if any, will be required.
1 If you are concerned about lead in your drinking water, we recommend flushing your faucet
if nobody has drawn water from it in the last three hours. By letting your water run for 1 -3
' minutes before using it for cooking or drinking, you flush away harmful traces of lead.
If you have questions concerning lead in drinking water or are interested in have your home
tested for Lead, please call the Chanhassen Utility Department at 474 -2086.

on July 1, 1992. A tentative tap water monitoring schedule (see Attachment 1)
is provided to insure all tap sampling and analyses can be completed before
the December 31, 1992 deadline. Sampling containers will be shipped to each
public water system approximately one week prior to the assigned sampling
month. Each water system will be responsible to collect and return the
required number of tap water samples to the MDH Lab in Minneapolis during the
scheduled month.
It is our intent to assist you in fulfilling your initial monitoring
requirements for lead and copper in tap water so that all water systems can
remain in compliance with this rule. The Public Water Supply Unit's staff are
interested in helping you resolve such problems in an expedient manner.
•
The MDH Division of Public Health Laboratories will be handling the logistics ,
of shipping sample containers and tracking the return of all tap water samples
at this time. Please contact the laboratory at 612/623 -5324 directly if you

1 Dear Councilmembers:
I I wish to document my concerns about the Minniwashta Parkway Project and
my recent conversation with the City Engineers Office.
' It is the last week of June and the project has not begun. We are concerned that
work will barely begin and it will be snowing. At that time the contractor will
put all his personnel on unemployment and leave the parkway torn up with no
I erosion protection and his equipment parked from one end of the parkway to
the other. This will cause traffic and pedestrian hazards until work can begin in
the Spring, as well as environmental damage.
I I voiced these concerns with the City Engineer last week on the telephone. I was
assured that:
1 1. Work would begin within one week, two at the most.
1 2. The current surface would only be torn up the length that they would be
able to resurface before work stops in the Fall.
I I hope that you will hold the City Engineer and contractor to that committment.
We will.
I If work does not begin in two weeks, you should consider waiting until next
year to avoid the problems I listed above.

1 Mr. and Mrs. . Hof . r

Re: Minnewashta Parkway Improvement Project No. 90-15
Dear Mr. Brown:
This letter shall serve as Notice to Proceed on the work for the referenced project on June
1
29, 1992. In accordance with your letter dated June 25, 1992 to the project consultant
engineer, it is our understanding that you will commence work with the clearing and
grubbing operations and then move into the installation of the storm sewer and
appurtenances. As I am sure you are aware, a great deal of coordination is needed on
reconstruction projects of this size, particularly as it relates to the relocation of public
utilities. Cooperation between the City, the consultant engineer and yourself will be
imperative to expedite the completion of this project.
We look forward to working with you on this project.

Dear Mayor Chmiel:
' The purpose of this letter is to provide you with information
regarding the 1991 Final Cost Allocation. The following statement
is offered to clarify this process:
1991 Final Cost Allocation
This statement shows your community's sewer service charges based
' on actual wastewater flow and MWCC expenditures in 1991. Actual
flow in 1991 was determined by the metered and /or unmetered flow
from your community. The allocation also shows any credits for
facilities acquired from your community (current value credit) or
for debt service paid by your community. It also shows any credit
or debit resulting from the 1989 Final Cost allocation. A debit or
1 credit generally occurs when a community has more or less
wastewater volume than estimated, relative to other communities.
The 1991 final cost allocation is based on the actual wastewater
flow and agency expenditures for the year. This result is then
compared to the amount of money your community remitted. Any
adjustment, whether a debit or a credit, will be applied to the
estimated sewer service charges for 1993.
I am forwarding a copy of this statement to your finance officer.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Very t ruly ours,

The Park and Recreation Department is currently designing an after hours registration area to be
housed just inside the main entrance to City Hall. This location will be arranged similar to a
bank's after hours business lobby. To facilitate this use, the exterior doors will remain open at
all times, with the interior doors (the second set of doors) being used for security to City Hall.
A securable bulletin board may replace the current board, and other modifications to this area
will be completed. These modifications may include securing the thermostat and electrical
outlet, installation of additional lighting, and construction of a raised registration/service counter
replacing the bench currently situated to the left of the doors as you enter City Hall.
If your department can make use of this space for similar after hour services to residents, please
inform me. Upon hearing from everyone, a design development meeting will be scheduled to
1 ensure that everyone's needs are met. I anticipate completing this transformation by the middle
of August to allow for promotion of this new service in the city's fall newsletter.

Subject: Temporary Road Closure
Carver County Public Works plans to temporarily close Galpin Blvd. (Co. Rd. 117) between State
Hwy. 5 and Lake Lucy Road in Chanhassen in order to replace 2 separate culverts in the
roadbed. This section of Galpin Blvd. was built in the early 1950's,. and these 2 large metal
culverts have settled and are crushed due to age.
Carver County will replace these culverts with new concrete culverts, but the road will need to
be closed for about one week to do the work.
One culvert is located 1,000 feet north of State Hwy. 5, and this culvert will be replaced first. The 1
other culvert is located 1,500 feet south of Lake Lucy Road and will be replaced after work on
the first culvert is completed and passable by traffic.
A marked detour route will be along State Hwy. 5 east to Powers Blvd. (Co. Rd. 17), north on
Powers Blvd. to Lake Lucy Road, and west on Lake Lucy Road to Galpin Blvd. Reverse this
route for motorists traveling in the opposite direction. 1
The road closure could begin as early as July 13, but informational signs will be posted at State
Hwy. 5 and Lake Lucy Road which will indicate the starting date. Work may be delayed because
of inclement weather or scheduling problems.
We regret the inconvenience this road closure will pose for you. If you have any questions or
concerns now or while the work is being done, please use one of the following phone numbers:
Public Works Dept. (Weekdays 8 AM - 4:30 PM) 448 -1213

SUBJ: Vehicle Parking Plan, Carver Beach Park
Consistent with the adopted Carver Beach Park Master Plan dated January 10, 1992, an area for
vehicle parking will be designated at the north end of Carver Beach Park. The Park and
Recreation Commission reviewed this item at their May and June meetings. The Commission
conducted a site visit in May, and held a neighborhood meeting at their June 23 meeting to allow
for citizen comment on this addition to the park. Upon conclusion of the discussion on June 23,
the Park and Recreation Commission approved the designation of four parallel parking spaces,
with one of the four being for persons with handicaps. This action is consistent with the
approved Master Park Plan; however, the number of spaces are being increased by one regular
and one handicapped space over the original designation. Park Maintenance/Public Works crews
will perform the necessary work associated with this project. 1

SUBJ: Neighborhood Meeting, Carver Beach Park, Vehicle Parking
1
Following a motion by the Park and Recreation Commission at the May 19, 1992, meeting to call
a neighborhood meeting in regard to vehicle parking at Carver Beach Park, the attached notice
was sent to the residents listed. A copy of the staff report presented to the commission in May
is attached for your use in addressing this item. To reiterate, the installation of four parallel
1 parking spaces, with one of the four being designated for persons with a disability, is being
recommended. This action is needed to bring the city into compliance with the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA), and to provide reasonable access to a public park facility. These parking
1 spaces are to be accommodated by a widening of the shoulder of Lotus Trail (a gravel road) for
a length of approximately 80 - 100 feet. The location of the parking is to be just north of the
small beach on the east side of Lotus Trail. This design has been discussed with the city's
1 Engineering and Planning Departments. The placement of signage designating the parking spaces -
will be coordinated with the Engineering and Public Works Departments.
111 Recommendation
•
1 It is recommended that the Park and Recreation Commission recommend the City Council
approve the construction and signage of four parallel parking spaces; one of the four for persons
with a disability at Carver Beach Park, as specified in this document and as shown on the
attached maps.

Dear Residents:
With the intent of providing reasonable access to a public park facility, and in order to comply with the
mandates of the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA), the Chanhassen Park and Recreation
Commission will be making a recommendation to the City Council to construct and sign an area at Carver i
Beach Park near the north beach for vehicle parking. The need to address the issue of accessibility was
recently reaffirmed by events occurring in the area of Carver Beach Park. Specifically, there have been
a number of occasions when persons using the park have parked along Lotus Trail, resulting in a report
of illegal parking being called in to the city or Sheriff's Department. In one instance, the persons using
the park (the fishing dock) identified themselves as being disabled. It is my understanding that residents
in the area typically tolerate the parking of vehicles along Lotus Trail to a certain degree; however, if the
city is notified, we are forced to issue citations if the persons will not move their vehicle. Obviously, the
solution to the lack of access via motor vehicles to this park can only be addressed by making appropriate
accommodations for parking being sensitive to the site limitations. '
The attached diagrams show in some detail the location for the parking spaces. These parking spaces are
to be accommodated by a widening of the road shoulder of Lotus Trait (a gravel road) for a length of
approximately 80 to 100 feet. The location of the parking being just north of the small beach on the east
side of Lotus Trail. The placement of signage designating the parking spaces will occur. This location
has been chosen for two reasons: 1) its proximity in relation to the facilities maintained at the park, and
2) the lack of direct residential contact on the opposite side of Lotus Trail.
This letter is being sent as notification that the Park and Recreation Commission has scheduled time at
their upcoming June 23 meeting to allow residents to comment on this item. Both the Park and Recreation
Commission and the Chanhassen City Council freely welcome citizen comment. The commission would
be glad to hear from you prior to making a recommendation to the City Council. An agenda for the
meeting is attached for your information. This item will be discussed shortly after 7:30 p.m. If you
cannot attend and would like to submit written comments for the commission's review, please mail them
to the City of Chanhassen, Park and Recreation Department, 690 Coulter Drive, Chanhassen, MN 55317;
or if you would like to speak personally to me, I can be reached between the hours 8:00 am. and 4:30
p.m. at 937 -1900.

1 Dear Residents:
This is a follow up to my letter dated June 15, 1992, regarding the upcoming informational
meeting on vehicle parking at Carver Beach Park. Attached please find the diagrams that were
1 referenced in that letter, and mistakenly not included in the mailing. I am sorry for any
inconvenience this may have caused you.
1 On an unrelated matter, you may be aware that trees were recently cut illegally in Carver Beach
Park. The story of this incident has appeared in the Chanhassen Villager newspaper, and recently
on WCCO Television's Community News series. I would like to remind all residents that the
' cutting, trimming, or removal of trees from public park property, and the dumping of yard waste
into the park are unlawful activities.
1 As stated in my previous letter, the Park and Recreation Commission informational meeting will
be held on Tuesday, June 23, 1992, at 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at City Hall. Hook
forward to seeing you then.

1 MEMORANDUM
TO: Park and Recreation Commission
FROM: Todd Hoffman, Park and Recreation Coordinator
DATE: May 15, 1992
SUBJ: Carver Beach Park - Vehicle Parking
1
*We will be conducting a site visit of this area prior to the regular meeting. See agenda
' for details.
1 The attached retouched Park Master Plan for Carver Beach Park depicts the parking
restrictions, parking availability, and recreational facilities at the park. I was not
involved in the events that led to all streets abutting the park being posted "No Parking ",
but I presume strong support for this posting by the majority of adjacent homeowners, in
addition to the road's narrow width, was the catalyst for this action. The only parking
available to allow use of this park by persons arriving by vehicle are the four spots at the
main beach to the south.
This
spring, as is with the case throughout the summer, people utilize the park to fish
from the dock and shore, and to experience other recreational activities. Parking .
I •• appeared to be allowed due to the absence of three of the no parking signs which had
been removed by construction and snow removal activity. Due to the presence of parked
' vehicles, a complaint call was received from a neighboring resident. It should be noted,
as confirmed by the caller, that parking of vehicles by people wishing to use the park
does occur on a routine basis, but for the most part is tolerated. However, when a
' complaint call is received, Public Safety is required to issue a warning or citation due to
the no parking status of the streets. Additionally, we must now consider the mandate of
ADA, Americans with Disability Act, to provide handicapped accessibility to all public
' facilities (the park, dock, canoe rack, beaches, etc.). The city is currently in violation of
this act. A community service officer was questioned in this regard upon informing two
elderly women fishing from the dock, who identified themselves as handicapped, that
parking of their vehicle along the street was not allowed. This confrontation occurred as
111
.s

Park and Recreation Commission
May 15, 1992
. Page 2
a result of a separate complaint call received by the Public Safety Department. The city 1
also provides a canoe rack at this location with no parking available for its users.
It is the opinion of staff that by maintaining a park containing facilities in which to be 1
reasonably used, need to be accessible by motor vehicles, and then choosing not to
provide parking, is unacceptable. It is further recognized that by providing recreational
facilities which are unaccessible by persons with handicaps, due to the absence of
parking, we are in violation of the ADA. Staff fully understands the position of residents
in this area, but I also identify their concerns as self interests, not representing the 1
universal interests a Park and Recreation Commission and city park system need to
provide for. The development and use of this park is debated on nearly an annual basis.
Residents of the area have been very interested in this process, and the commission has
accepted their input and continue to improve the park. However, by not providing some
access by vehicles to the developed north side of this park, the city is not allowing for
reasonable use of the park. 1
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Park and Recreation Commission hold a ublic hearing to
P g
discuss vehicular parking at Carver Beach Park on Lotus Trail. It is recommended that
3 parking spots be identified with one of the 3 being designated for persons with 111
handicaps. This parking to be facilitated by the construction of a widened shoulder, for
a distance of 60 feet, on the south side of Lotus Trail, as depicted on the attached
diagram (the absence of residences across the street from this location makes it the most
desirable location). Upon conclusion of the public hearing, it is recommended that the
Park and Recreation Commission make a recommendation to the City Council in this
regard.

P.O. Box 24137
Minneapolis, MN 55424
Dear Mr. James:
1
I apologize for not responding earlier to your letter of June 17, 1992.
Prior to discussing potential meeting dates and ..agendas, I do feel obliged to respond to some of
the points brought out in your letter of June 17, 19 , i.e:
Target Selection Process: If the pain and anguish I suffered were not so vivid, I would
find your comment that Don Ashworth had a secret agenda in attempting to get Target
to the Burdick site is almost humorous. For-- nearly three years the city litigated
everything from falsifying public records (city found innocent), jurisdiction for
condemnation appealed (court appeal), public purpose appealed (appeal denied),
etc., in regards to the condemnation of the Burdick property for a public ponding area.
I sat through untold evening meetings defending the city, and listening to allegations and
untold innuendos. Can you seriously believe that another staff member or I would steer
1
Target to the Burdick site knowing that we may be playing the same old record one more
time? A more welcomed and accurate letter from you :should have stated, "Don, I really
appreciate the professional' manner in _which jou ,handled-_the playing : fields for me,
Burdick, and 4he; landowners knowing the history you have endured in previous
property acquisition`s'. "::.;'he_only discussion that occurred with Target was the one that
occurred after the special HRA/City Council/Planning Commission meeting, and solely
relayed the position of that group, i.e. tihey;hvored Target being located on the Burdick
site if developed according to the plan prepared by Bill Morrish.
Necessity for Waivers: You also appeared to think that the selection process was unfair
as the city somehow agreed to "waive all city ordinances and use the power of
condemnation just to enable a private party to build 80 ft. away from a site where they
could build without such special intervention." You imply that the Burdick site will
require variances as well. I'm not sure where these comments are coming from, but
wet PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER

Mr. Charles Wm. James
July 7, 1992

' assuredly it is not city hall or any commission or Council member. I am confident that
no commission or Council member believes that their action in any way waived any city
development requirement, or waived any city ordinance, etc. The project does include
the assemblage of lands in a manner to accomplish an overall redevelopment plan.
However, this concept is the backbone of every redevelopment project which has occurred
. in Chanhassen, or for that matter, in Minnesota or nation -wide.
' - HRA Incentives: In regards to the comment from Bill McHale that the city would make
funds available to the Burdick parcel "that we would not extend this commitment of funds
to 'alternate sites' within the City of Chanhassen," is Mr. McHale's statement, not the
city's. Our position as to incentives that are offered to a developer have been quite
consistent for every development project within the city. To the best of my knowledge,
1 no discussion occurred at the special meeting in regards to selecting one site versus
another because of the necessity to commit funds or not to commit funds. It was an issue
which simply did not need to be discussed as, in my own mind, commission and Council
1 members believed that the incentive would be the same regardless of which site was
chosen. [Note: I have had several commissioners /Council members who have relayed
to me their happiness with how the decision making process occurred as, if the Ward
parcel had been chosen, they would feel very uncomfortable in providing an incentive for
a developer to clear cut a heavily wooded site, and to potentially fill or modify extensive
1 wetland areas.] I am sure that Mr. McHale would like to believe that his statement is
correct; but the fact is that it is not.
' As noted above, I sincerely believe that the city has tried to ensure that an equal playing field
was maintained for all players. Knowing that this process would conclude with one party or
another having a significant financial gain over the other, certain distortions may have occurred;
' but I in know way believe the city was a part of those distortions nor endorses them. To ensure
that we can minimize your concerns, I would like to accept your offer to meet and discuss the
issues presented in your previous letter as well as your letter of June 17. I would also like to
discuss the potential of our working with you in developing an overall development plan for your
property, and how that plan could interface with the potential Target development. Although Mr.
Burdick and Mr. Ryan may be the immediate winners from the last selection process, I sincerely
believe that those decisions will increase the marketability and value of your parcel. I am also
confident that Ryan is concerned with the current requirement which limits the number of uses
of the westerly portion of the property, requires common architectural themes, and develops a
1 planned unit concept. Although these generalized plans may be difficult to turn into reality and
thus not be a "Tonkin Gulf Resolution," they do pave the way to make the approval process
through the city much easier.
Please feel free to contact either Todd, Karen Engelhardt, or me to establish a potential meeting
� P g
date. Except for July 16, 1992, most of the week of July 13 is currently open.

SUBJ: Macro Media Contract
1
My recollection of our meeting with Macro Media was that the city was willing to make a
1 commitment to this project for approximately $2,000 - $2,500. In their letter of June 26, 1992,
they note that they're currently estimating a total project cost to be approximately $5,000. As
this will be a learning experience for them, and hypothetically a duplication of services through
I the learning process, that they will reduce the price to the city not to exceed $2,500. I am not
sure that I totally understand the cost reduction process, but as long as overall limitations are met,
I we should continue with the project. t
My recollection of that meeting also included establishing check points where a determination
I could be made as to whether or not the project should be finished or not. I had suggested a
check point sitting at approximately t1,000 to $1,500, with some form of verification by yourself,
as to whether or not the project truly was developing as initially envisioned.

By this memorandum, I am authorizing Macro Media to move ahead with the project as outlined
in their letter of June 26, 41992, and under the general guidelines stated above.

Dear Mr. Jessup: 1
I am pleased to inform you that on July 8, 1992, I received a letter from the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency concluding that the investigation and clean -up performed on your property
located at 9247 Lake Riley Boulevard, has addressed the petroleum contamination. The letter
also states that you may begin construction at this time.
On February 10, 1992, the City Council approved your request for a variance extension for the
construction of your new single family residence ( #89 -1), 9247 Lake Riley Boulevard. The City
Council approved an extension for one year, until February 10, 1993, with a review of the
situation in six months, July 31, 1992. The City Council indicated a desire to see this situation
resolved and it is unlikely that further extensions will be granted.
Based upon the foregoing, you should apply for a building permit and start construction prior to
February 10, 1993. If you fail to do so, your variance will expire.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

il The purpose of this letter is to clarify the MPCA's position with respect to
the recent letters sent to Mr. Rudolph Remus and Mr. James Jessup. Although
not expressly stated in either of the letters, the MPCA staff has no objection
over Mr. Jessup beginning construction of his new home. The June 11, 1992,
1 letter to Mr. Jessup provides the MPCA's recommendations for assessing
contaminant levels in soil and ground water. We see no reason why he cannot
begin footing and foundation construction at this time.

1 Dear Mr. Ashworth:
I I am writing this letter to inform you that the MGM Liquor Warehouse in your city has met the
necessary requirements of the IBA Certification Program and has become IBA Certified.
' The Institute of Beverage Alcohol (IBA), a non - profit organization founded in 1989, developed the
IBA Certification Program with the assistance of both leaders in the retail liquor industry and
experts in prevention, law enforcement, public health, liquor control and state and local government.
I The IBA Certification Program was initiated by the retail liquor industry and others concerned with
alcohol abuse to increase the professional standards of the retail liquor industry, recognize the most
1 responsible licensees, and self - regulate the industry. The program sets high standards of
responsible alcohol service which establishments must meet to be eligible for certification.
The IBA Certification Program is designed to relieve some of the burden of enforcement from local
officials. IBA's standards are enforced with both scheduled and unannounced inspection visits on
an annual basis. Each certified licensee must pass a scheduled inspection visit to verify compliance
with the standards (ie. signs posted, servers properly trained, etc.). In addition, they must also pass
a surprise visit by an IBA staff member, who looks under 21 (but is over 21), that attempts to
purchase alcohol. Failure to pass these inspections will result in the loss of certification.
•
By folio win g becoming IBA's standards and becomin IBA Certified, this establishment has made a
I commitment to its customers and community to serve alcohol professionally and responsibly. I
encourage you to commend them for this accomplishment and recommend others to do likewise.
I am enclosing along with this letter a brochure for the IBA Certification Program. If you have any
questions about the program, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Re: Lift Station No. 10
File No. PW -055J
1
Dear Phyllis and Arthur:
I received your letter following our recent phone conversation concerning some overflow problems which have 1
occurred at Lift State No. 10 adjacent to your property. While I do not know the history to explain the reason
for problems experienced in the past, I do know that the two overflow occurrences you referenced during the
month of May were the result of power outages in the electric company's system. The lift station has been
designed with safety mechanisms built into it such as a three -pump system whereby under normal conditions only
two pumps are needed to carry the flow. If one pump should fail, the spare third pump would kick in thus
providing the adequate flow capacity of the lift station. Unfortunately, under a power outage condition none of
the pumps are able to function, thus, City crews have to manually pump down the flow with a mobil vac truck;
however, this can be a difficult task since this lift station serves a very large area of Chanhassen and during
various times of the day substantial flow is being carried through this facility. .
The City is investigating what other reasonable measures can be taken to avoid an overflow problem under power
outage condition in the future. One of the options being looked at is a portable generator to provide temporary
power to the lift station. It is possible that the solution for this problem could involve significant cost
expenditures; therefore, staff will be thoroughly investigating potential solutions and anticipates reporting back
to the City Council with a recommendation in the next few months.
In conclusion, your concerns for the protection of Lotus Lake from an overflow sewage situation are shared by 1
City staff. We appreciate you taking the time to submit your letter and photographs.
Sincerely,
1

Chanhassen City Engineer
1 Dear Mr. Fulsem,
Ever since the pumping station was installed at the South end of
Carver Beach on Lotus Lake between our house and the Swanson house,
we have been aware of problems. It has broken down on many
1 occasions and occasionally flowed into the lake. It's ironic that
the very means of stopping runoff from private septic systems
is continuing to add sewage to our precious lake.
1 Two such occurrances in May, the 17th•and the previous weekend
prompted me to call Mayor Chmiel and Councilmember Mike Mason.
The enclosed photos taken May 17 show the result of the malfunction.
We ask that the city invest in some means of protection to keep
1 this pollution of an already threatened lake from happening again.
We have heard that a portable generator is being considered as
part of a new sewer project. If this is purchased and used when
1 pumping stations loose power, it would help to eliminate a very
serious situation.
We support its purchase and any other ways that can eliminate
' overflows at pumping stations.
Sincerely,

Eden Prairie, MN 55344 1
Dear Allan:
Thanks for meeting with Charles Folch and me on July 7th relative to the Marsh Creek Golf 1
Course proposal. I also would like to confirm what we had discussed.
We raised a concern about the continuity of Lyman/Lake Riley Boulevard as it crosses the
Eden Prairie city line. It was our understanding that based upon discussions that had taken
place several years ago, that Lake Riley Boulevard was to be realigned to intersect with Dell
Road. Based upon these discussions, Lyman/Lake Riley Boulevard east of Highway 101 was
anticipated to be constructed as a four lane facility in Chanhassen. You outlined for us the
fact that if the Marsh Creek Golf Course proposal goes forward, Lake Riley Boulevard in 1
Eden Prairie would essentially remain on its current alignment. The only exception would be
that it would incorporate a deviation around the park on the east side of the lake. You also
confirmed for us that this street will retain its state aid designation and is likely to be 1
maintained in satisfactory condition and may be improved in the future. As a result of these
discussions, Charles and I agreed that Lyman/Lake Riley Boulevard east of Hwy. 101 in
Chanhassen would likely only need to be upgraded as an improved two lane facility. Traffic
being generated in Chanhassen alone does not warrant a four lane roadway and as a result of
the Marsh Creek Golf Course proposal, there would be little or no traffic loading entering the
road from Eden Prairie.
The second concern we raised was relative to the quality of surface water discharges from the
Marsh Creek Golf Course proposal into Lake Riley. As you aware, Chanhassen has been
involved in developing a surface water management program for the past year and a half. We
are already requiring all new developments to meet NURP standards and are looking into
undertaking remedial projects where existing development is causing problems. We ask you
to confirm that the Marsh Creek Golf Course project would be developed in a manner

consistent with Best Management Practices and NURP standards. You indicated that Eden
1 Prairie shares this concern and is proposing to apply these review criteria.
We spoke of one other matter that was not related to this development. I outlined the Moon
1 Valley proposal to mine clay on the site located in Chanhassen, adjacent to Eden Prairie on
Pioneer Trail, and gave you a copy of their grading plans. Please feel free to give me a call
with any concerns you might have regarding this request as soon as you have had a chance to
1 review it
Thank you again for meeting with us.

Dear Al,
I was pleased to speak with you today and to learn that you remain II
supportive of Chanhassen's retaining Bob Zydowsky in our employment -
after he completes his skills training. I have learned that the II final date of skills will be Friday, September 11. As I told you,
I think it would be most beneficial to Bob if he were able to
undertake his field training as soon as possible after completing II skills.
.Obviously, the City of Chanhassen greatly appreciates your support
of this exciting opportunity, =°as well as your willingness to permit
II
Bob to be trained under your field training program. I think this
again exhibits the excellent working relationship between the City
of Chanhassen and the Carver County Sheriff's Department.
II
Please contact me with any thoughts, Al. Again, thank you for your
support.

Mr. Ben Withhart
Senior Community Services
1600 Second Street South
1 Hopkins, MN 55343
Dear Ben:
With the recent opening of the Chanhassen Senior Center, I wanted to take a moment to
explore a few items of interest with you. First of all, I wanted to express to you how well
1 Judy Colby has filled the position of Senior Coordinator here. She has gained the trust of
both the senior community as well as city staff. We have every reason to believe that her
high energy level and dedication will continue to result in strong utilization of the center and
of an expansion of our community's offerings to our senior residents.
There are however, two matters of concern to me. The first deals with the support we are
getting from Senior Community Services relative to our senior activities and the second is
related to the H.O.M.E. Program. As to the first matter, I am concerned that there does not
' seem to be strong or consistent support from Senior Community Services or the network of
senior centers you staff for our Senior Center operations. We had hoped that there would be
strong support and frequent communications between your organization and ours through 'Judy
1 as well as coordination of programs and activities of benefit not only to our center but to
others in the area. At this point in time, I don't believe that the levels of support I have
observed are consistent with these expectations. There is no particular item that I can put my
' finger on to demonstrate this concern but nevertheless, I feel it is reasonable to raise this
issue.
The other matter of concern is the H.O.M.E. Program. We have seen very low rates of
utilization from our community for the program and the benefits we have accrued do not
appear to warrant the level of financial support we have pledged. We have raised this
concern in the past and my City Council, when authorizing CDBG expenditures, ask for a six
month review of the program. I asked that this be undertaken rather than simply stopping the
program because I wanted to give it an opportunity to catch on after our Senior Center was
open. We are now entering that critical six month phase. I would ask that you encourage
t PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER
1
Mr. Ben Withhart

Page 2 1
your staff to creatively appraise the program, the procedures by which it is offered, and how
it is promoted. For example, if we are only going to have a low number of users, then we
may want to consider offering the services for free or at substantially reduced costs.
We are also having problems with CDBG funding. As a result of decisions at the
Washington, DC, HUD Office, we may lose our funding through Hennepin County.
I would appreciate your taking these items under consideration. After you have had an
opportunity to do so, it may be useful for us to sit down and discuss these matters further.

1 Dear Todd:
We completed the Canada goose capture and translocation in the
1 Metropolitan Area on Monday, 6 July. A total of 4,161 geese (1,257 adults
and 2,904 young) were trapped at 59 sites and transported elsewhere. In
' 1991. we caught 2,822 geese (1,144 adults and 1,683 young) at 56 sites.
Like last year, adult geese were divided between Oklahoma (500) and
Mississippi (757) and released on their wildlife areas. The goslings were
transported to Minnesota sites, mostly in the north and northwest, and
released.
1 Goose production this spring was highest in the last 10 years. The early
and cool spring gave the birds plenty of time to nest and kept the grass
green and growing, contributed to an unusually productive year for the
geese. While adults were up by only 113 (10 percent) in 1992, we caught
1,221 (73 percent) more young.
1 The crew trapped 98% of the geese they attempted to capture, up from
95% last year The cool weather made for less stress on the geese and the
goose capture crews. We lost one adult while trapping, and one gosling
and one adult during transport. This was less that the four expected based
on our estimate of the one death per 1000 geese captured and transported.
' All deaths resulted from the stress of the capture combined with an
infirmity or disease. No birds were lost as a result of injury.
' The locations, dates, and number of geese captured in your city were:

1 As shown above, in 1936 and 1987 we incurred substantial fees for which we did not bill the City.
We anticipated this to be temporary as the City's finance deparanent increased efforts. Although
the Citv's financial accounting system is producing quality financial data, increased audit effort has
I resulted from increased national reporting/disclosure requirements and increased volume of
financial activity (bonding and constnicaon) of the City. The 1988 audit bill reflects this increased
audit effort. Allocations /coding are included in the enclosed billings.

SUBJ: Audit Service Contract, 1992 -94, Deloitte and Touche o
Audit services for the City of Chanhassen were completed by Voto, Taut es and Red. TR 1
Y P Y � g (VTR)
for the years 1981 through 1988. In earl 1989, the Ci . . ' . . .. s .' .. 'ce 1
proposals be received from other firm Staff deve oped the RFP, including '. ' um criteria
and following Council approval, distributed such to recognized auditor 1 irms within the
metropolitan area. Staff reviewed the proposals received (typically 100 -200 'ages in length), and 1
interviewed 7 -8 firms. The list was then reduced to 3-4, with the City Co cil interviewing those
3 -4 firms. The process took approximately 4-5 months from • • to finish, with the City
Council acting to select Deloitte & Touche as city auditors for • 3 year contract period of 1
1989 -91. As the audit report presented to the City Council this .ast month represented the last
year of the three year contract, I have requested Deloitte • su , 't a roposal for 1992 -94. I am
in hopes that the City Council will not request that prop r om so i" o i - ' ted as the 1
time and effort required to do such is quite consuming. f. ' the other side, I do not believe that
the city should go for more than a 10 year period u g the same auditor. [Note: The time
frame to consider soliciting service proposals is pro• • sed to be one of the items included in the 1
"financial policies" as recommended by Deloi = during this past years audit review. That
document is rather extensive, and will not be co pleted prior to the end of this year and probably
not until early 1993.1 . _ 1

RE: Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) for Upper Bluff
Creek District Sanitary Sewer and Water Main
Improvements -- Chanhassen
Dear Mr. Affeldt: ,
This letter acknowledges receipt of the EAW for the above -named
project. The Environmental Review Program rules (at Minnesota '
Rules, part 4410.1500, item B) require that a press release
containing notice of the EAW availability be provided to at
least one newspaper of general circulation within the area and
that copies of the EAW be distributed to all points on the EQB
distribution list. We presume that these requirements have been
met. ,
Notice of the EAW availability will be published in the EQB,
Monitor on July 20, 1992. The 30 -day comment period will begin
on that day and will expire on August 19, 1992. '
Pursuant to Minnesota Rules, part 4410.3100, subpart 1, no final
governmental decision to grant a permit, approve the project, or 11
begin the project may be made until a negative declaration or
EIS adequacy determination has been made.
Please contact me if any questions arise about the Environmental
1
Review process. My phone number is (612) 296 -8253, or you may
call toll -free by dialing 1- 800 - 652 -9747 and asking for the
Environmental Quality Board, Environmental Review Program.
Sincerely,
