Met Council will formally give cities more room to grow Page I of2 bOVO'ld{olfl " , art.com- , MlrfcrlIø(1Rt~r I Published Thursday, March 23, 2000 .~ .Mdn Met Council will formally give cities more room to grow David Peterson 1 Star Tribune The Metropolitan Council agreed Wednesday to notifY suburbs on the metro fÌinge that they can let developers build on land being held in reserve for use five to 10 years fÌ"om now, The council was responding to an urgent plea fÌ"orn homebuilders, who have pointed to fast-rising land prices as a sign that not enough land is available for the area's galloping growth. While council officials have spoken to cornmunities about developing in five-year stages, they say they never meant the strategy to be as restrictive as some have assumed. "The letters will go out soon," said Tom McElveen, the council's development director, "and they will carry a significant message for many of those cornmunities." In Lakeville, 21-year City Council Member Betty Sindt said she doesn't expect anirnmediate impact. "We need to put in all the utilities, developers need to get ready, so it won't happen tomorrow," she said. MetCouncil officials said it isn't clear how much land is in question. Some communities hold off on development for their own reasons, such as their ability to provide schools and other services. The letter will be aimed at suburbs in which local officials believe that the MetCouncil either doesn't want or doesn't allow growth beyond a five-year boundary. Dan Hunt, chairman of the public-policy committee for the Builders Association of the Twin Cities, said after the meeting that his group is pleased that the letters will go out but is waiting to see what happens. http://www.start...Iarticle?thisSlug=MET23&date=23-Mar-2000&word=council&word=me 03/23/2000 Met Council will formally give cities more room to grow Page 2 of2 "The problem is very real," he said, "and change needs to come sooner rather than later. We have to keep making the case that the land supply isn't there, Land speculators and homeowners are being enriched by [the runup in land value], but it's hitting the people on the lowest rungs," such as first-time home buyers. Council Chairman Ted Mondale said he's willing to ease the land supply but wants that to be coupled with changes in development practices, The council has sought higher-density, mixed-use development that lends itself to mass transit rather than relying on the automobile, "What we're getting now is not what we want," he said, Even farther? McElveen repeated an earlier pledge that the MetCouncil will consider whether to tell communities they can go out even farther, to land beyond the growth line for 2010 but within the line drawn for 2020. One way the MetCouncil regulates growth is through its oversight of the regional sewage treatment system, and McElveen stressed that only communities with sufficient sewer capacity can open more land to development. Some, such as those in parts of Washington County, are close to their limit. . .tartribune..com . Melro In response to another plea from the homebuilders, the council also pledged Wednesday to do a better job of monitoring how cities really develop, rather than relying on the plans they put on paper. ~ Copyright 2000 Star Tribune.

Auociation of Metropolitan Municipalitie¡ 'rom: AMM To: Scott Botcher AMM FAX NEWS March 13-17, 2000 (no. 2) Transportation funding bills in final stages The House and Senate are in the final stages of developing the Transportation Capital Funding bills. The two bills are in final committee prior to being sent to the respective floors. HF 2891 (Molnau) is in Ways and Means and SF XXXX (Dean Johnson) is in Rules. HF 2891 provides $327 million general fund and $75 million trunk highway fund money for new road construction. Half is to be spent on metro bottlenecks on or within the 1- 494/1-694 beltway and the remaining $201 million for interregional corridors primarily in outstate, However, in theory, some could be spent for partial metro corridors such as Highway 212. In addition. $3.7 million is provided for metro transit, $450,000 for outstate transit assis- tance, $3 million for a new intergovern- mental cooperative facilities loan fund, and $20 million to the transportation revolving loan fund. The bill requires: 1) ramp meters to be turned off for a period and results studied and 2) HOV lanes to be studied for possible use by large trucks. The law prohibiting new optouts is repealed. A major projects commission is created consisting of the governor, three govemor appointees and 10 legislators that must review a list of projects annually provided by MN/DOT before commencing construction. This may add politics to the choice of which highways get money? The bill cancels bonding authority for Hiawatha LRT and prohibits trunk highway money spent on road changes attributed to LRT It also requires utility relocation for LRT to be included in MN/DOTs budget rather than paid for by the utility company as has been the case for road construc- tion projects for decades. Bonding authority for metro transit capital expenditures is provided in a different bill as is one-time highway bonding authority. SF XXXX (which is not assigned a number because it has not been submitted yet) provides $100 million trunk highway bonding per year for 10 years. It transfers $145 million from the general fund to the highway user tax distribution fund which splits: $85.405 million to trunk highways, $47.125 million to counties and $12.470 to cities. The Wakota bridge is allocated $12 million from the general fund through the trunk high- way fund and various building projects receive $27.4 million from the trunk highway fund, $44 million from the general fund is appropriated for local bridges. Approxi- mately $10 million in expenditures for non-highways is transferred from the highway trunk fund to the state general fund. In addition to a number of outs tate projects, the metro area is provided $20 million for bus garages and $10 million for bus transitways The Metropolitan Council is authorized to issue up to $40 million in transit capitai bonds in 2002 and each year thereafter, plus an annual inflation each year. $3,7 million is appropriated to metro transit opera- tions. A multi modal fund is created and $119.650 is appropriated from the general fund on June 30, 2001. In all a total of $425 million in cash is trans- ferred from the general fund for trans- portation purposes. However, a portion of that is allocated to uses other than highway or transit. A constitutional amendment is provided for 15 percent of MVET dedicated to the trunk highway fund to replace about $80 million in auto tab fee reduction and 15 percent of MVET to a transit fund, The transit portion is about the same as the current state appropria- tion for transit. Thus the constitutional amendment provides no new money Property Tax Omnibus bills getting underway AMM News Fax isfaxed to allAMM city "tanagers and administrators, legislaJive conlacls and Board members. Please share rlliffax with your mayors, councilmembers and staff to keep tltem abreast of impor. rant metro city issues. The House and Senate are just beginning to develop the Omnibus Tax bills. They will be marked up in the tax committees the week of March 20. The House extends levy limits one year, reduces limited market value from 8.5 percent to 7.0 percent increase in anyone year for home- stead, non-homestead residential and non-commercial seasonal recreational properties, and reduces class rates for most property types, except lower valued homes. From a city perspective, the most notable feature of the Senate bill is that levy limits are NOT extended. The bill reduces apartment class rates from 2.4 to 1.95 percent, increases the educa- tion agricultural credit and increases HACA to offset class rate changes.

The combined company will benefit from a broader product offering, Geographically, the company will operate in a total of 11 states, Six states have either the largest or fastest growing populations in the nation - Florida, California, Texas, Colorado, Arizona and Nevada, The company's product offering will be materially enhanced by the U,S, Home strategic position in the fast-growing retiremenVactive aduit segment of the market. The company will continue to build homes for the first-time, first-time move-up, second-time move-up and retirement purchasers under both the Lennar and U.S, Home brand names, Based on combined 1999 results, Lennar and U.S. Home delivered over 21 ,600 homes and had almost $5 billion in revenues and $551 million of EBITDA. The combined organization will hIM! approximately $1 billion in stockholders' equity, Lennar and U.S. Home are currently the 5th and 8th largest homebuilders in the country, respectively, Stuart Miller, President and CEO of Lennar commented, "The transaction creates the largest and most profitable homebuilding company in America, It is immediately accretive to earnings. The company's balance sheet remains among the best in the business, and the management and cultural fits are exceptional. "The enhanced size and scope of our business will allow us to solidify our leading position in our principal markets and home product offerings, as well as allow us to pursue http://WWW.lennar.com/Iennarwebsite/len_add30mp/add30mp_info.htm Page I of3 3/22/2000 Additional Company Information Page 2 00 new Internet and broadband opportunities for the homebuilding industry. Because of the way we have structured our balance sheet over the past year, this strategic acquisition will facilitate very strong cash flow and earnings per share growth, without jeopardizing any operating flexibility." Robert J, Strudler, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of U,S, Home, noted, "Our management team is very excited to join forces with Lennar, one of the nation's premier homebuilders with a proven track record of enhancing shareholder value, Over the past eight years, U,S. Home has become a valuable franchise with proven results and excellent prospects for continued growth, ·We believe the value of the U,S. Home franchise to our shareholders is not being maximized as small-cap value stocks are not afforded even their intrinsic worth, much less a premium for proven results, After weighing all the factors, we believe that combining these two companies with the same core values, strong management teams, good balance sheets and track records of success will allow our shareholders to recognize value and give our employees a stronger platform from which to succeed, We believe the combination of Lennar and U,S, Home will create a bigger, stronger and faster-paced organization," Isaac Heimbinder, Co-Chief Executive Officer and President of U,S, Home, noted, "The combined strength and management talent of these two companies will not only enable a continued and more prominent leadership role in housing, but will create a strong impetus for taking advantage of opportunities created by joining with other entities focusing on homebuyers as well as prospects created bye-commerce." Mr, Miller added, ''The resulting organization provides significant market and shareholder enhancement in the following areas: · Our resulting size provides valuable benefits both from the operational and financial markets perspectives, · The combined companies will have greater geographic diversity. While both entities have a significant presence in Florida, Texas and Arizona, U,S, Home brings a substantial presence in Denver, Minneapolis and the eastern seaboard states, Lennar's extensive land holdings in California accelerate U.S, Home's expansion into the largest homebuilding marketin the country, as well as affording Lennar faster absorption of its land bank. · From the product enhancement standpoint, U.S, Home has long been recognized as an industry leader in the development of retiremenVcountry club communities, clearly the nation's fastest growing market segment. Additionally, while both companies have excellent brand name recognition in the affordable and move-up homebuyer markets, we have quite different merchandising approaches which will greatly enhance our ability to expand in existing markets, U.S, Home has focused on the design studio approach, offering the buyer extensive upgrade and option features, Lennar has focused on the simplified operating platform of 'Everything's Included'SM, · As the Internet continues to rapidly become a dominant factor within all industries, we believe size and strength will be necessary to attract opportunities in e-commerce. The combined U.S. Home and Lennar entity will provide a unique platform for the company to focus on internal opportunities as well as external investments, Having an executive of Mr, Heimbinder's experience and vision will allow us to focus on this area of emerging Internet opportunities within the homebuilding industry." Mr, Miller continued, "The acquisition of U.S. Home provides Lennar with access to one of the foremost management and leadership development training programs in the industry, No organization can grow without the development of its future leaders, The emphasis on the development of people at U,S, Home is a strong cultural fit with our core values," U,S, Home, with a 45-year history of quality homebuilding, will continue as a national brand name within the Lennar family of builders including Lennar Homes, Greystone Homes, http://www.lennar.comllennarwebsite/len_add30mp/add30mp_info.htm 3/22/2000 Additional Company Information Village Builders, Renaissance Homes and Winncrest Homes. Mr, Miller concluded, "Both companies began operating in 1954, Combined, we have over 90 years of homebuilding experience. It is a great fit - two strong companies with complimentary values and little operating duplication."

The cash portion would be taxable at the time of the transaction. u.s. Home stockholders can elect to receive cash or stock, subject to proration, such that at least 50% and not more than 55% of the total consideration is cash, The stock consideration is subject to a cap and collar arrangement such that the aggregate cash and stock consideration expressed on a per share basis will not be less than $32,72 and not more than $41.

If after that meeting the neighbors want to meet with staff, a meeting can be set up, I'm enclosing a site plan for your review, This is a site plan only and does not include all of the required submittals including a landscaping plan, etc. I have also enclosed the tax analysis that was used at the concept level discussion, I am also searching the crime statistics for similar projects per your request. I met with ISD 112 and Westwood Church as a part of my meeting with Pulte Homes regarding the location of middle or an elementary school in the area of TH 41 and 5, While there was some interesting discussion, the church and Pulte Homes were not willing to trade land, There were a few options regarding partnering, etc. tossed around, and while it doesn't look hopeful, they are being explored, There is another Christian school looking for property for a high school. It is my understanding that they have spoken to Westwood and can't afford the costs at the Pulte site, Another update you asked about regarding the land around the group home, This is the property owned by Mr. Dolejsi, which Lundgren Brothers has an option on, It has changed owners. Lannar supposedly bought US Homes, which bought Lundgren Brothers. I am trying to verifY this. I also wanted to find out what their plans are for the property. This site would also make a good school site, The Pulte proposal has the following tentative schedule: · Submittal (early April, anyone is welcome to review the submittal-there is no staff comments yet) · Publication of Environmental Assessment Worksheet in EQB (any resident or governmental jurisdiction can comment on the EA W) · Neighborhood meeting with Developer likely at the end of April · Meeting with staff if requested by neighbors-can be held any time Mike and Anne Ryan March 22, 2000 Page 2 . Planning Commission public hearing - more than one may be necessary (early May meeting-a staff report will be available) planning commission gives recornmendation . City Council meeting -more than one is necessary (approval must be given on the land use change (4 votes) and the rezoning to PUD (4 votes), site plan approval (simple majority 3 votes) and approval of the EA W (simple majority only). I never know how long this process will take I guessing at least 2-3 months. Please feel tree to contact me if you have any questions. I will do my best to keep you informed, Sincerely, ~ Kathryn R.

The total appropriation, which is the sum of the current gen- eral fund transit subsidy and the property tax levy, would ap- proximate $335,0 million a biennium. The tax bill also does not permit the issuance of regional general obligation bonds to finance capital improvements and equipment replacement. TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (TIF) Both tax bills include modifica- tions to the Tax Increment Fi- nancing (TIF) Act. The House bill modifications include a consolida- tion of the reporting require- ments, the authority to use increment outside of a district for housing, the elimination of the 11- \ yw rulf¿Jor the duration of economic .development districts I aÏìëi1ríe tax capacity inflator, and clarification of the housing district definition, The TIF amendment also IimitS\ economic development TIF districts to eight years and elimi- nates the ability to waive the first / year of increment. The Senate bill does not in- clude the housing district defini- tion and the economic develop- ment district changes, The Sen- ate bill includes the reporting changes, as well as several general and special law changes related to housing and TIF.

A Severe Thunderstorm or Tornado \Vatch means that conditions are favorable for a severe thunderstorm or tornado to develop. In a watch, you should prepare· to take action if the weather changes. It is important for family members to check in with each other if possible to review what actions each should take if the weather changes and they are in different places, Families should plan ahead oftime how they will communicate and reconnect after a storm. · A Severe Thunderstorm or Tornado \Varning means a severe thunderstorm is occuring or å tornado is on the ground, Those in the path of the approaching storm should take immediate shelter. Be sure to take a battery-operated radio with ·fresh batteries to listen to weather reports, a flashlight, and items to comfort small children, as ap¡5ropriate, · Listen to the weather forecast. Be prepared ahead of time. Know how you can be notified of severe weather (TV and radio bulletins, warning sirens, weather alert radio) and monitor weather changes. · Have a disaster supplies kit and essential personal items ready to take with you to your place of shelter, Items may include eyeglasses, prescription medications, driver's license, and credit cards. · It is also important to plan what you would do if you are away from home in a severe storm, Where would you take shelter? · Mobile home parks are required to have a shelter on-site or to have a designated shelter nearby, Know 'where your shelter is located before severe weather strikes, . Response to Severe \Veather · The safest place to be for shelter is underground (basement, cellar, underground floor of a building) and preferably under something sturdy like a work bench, table, or stairs, Do not worry about what corner is best. · In apartments, schools, or hospitals-remain calm and move occupants to the lowest level and into interior corridors (or bathrooms without windows) away from windows and glass doors, Ifpossible, get beneath heavy furniture to protect from falling debris. · If you are in your vehicle, do not try to outrun a tornado. Get out of your car and seek safe shelter or lay flat in a ditch and cover your head, · In mobile homes, when the sirens sound, get out immediately and seek protection in a designated shelter, If none is available, as a last resort, lie down on the ground and protect your head,· · If you are boating or swimming, get to land and find shelter immediately. · If you are caught outdoors and no shelter is nearby, find a low spot away from trees, fences and poles, If you are in the woods, take shelter under the shorter trees. · If you feel your skin tingle or your hair stand on end, squat low to the ground on the balls of your feet. Place your hands on your knees with your head between them making yourself the smallest target possible and minimizing your contact with the ground, · Wait in place until the storm has passed, Be aware of potential dangers (downed power lines, weak structures, debris, possibility of flash flooding) ¡fyour area has been affected by the storm, ·Counties participating in a second tornado drill on April 13, 2000 @ 6:55 pm~ (As of February 22,2000) MarsIiaI Koochiching KiIIson Roseau , Sl Louis Hubbard Cass Clay Sedler Crow Wing Aitkin Carlton Pine Mower Fillmore - , 'n ... 1999 MINNESOTA TORNADOES - - ~FO .......

'- :(((!/MPACY)) . ::'-:" <.~,-:--.:-~"_."",..;",,",,,-, . In the past I 0 years, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has spent $20 billion to help people repair and rebuild their communities after natural disasters. And that is not the total cost. Insurance companies spent additional billions in claims payments; businesses lost revenµes; employees Iostjobs; other govemméntilgencies spent millions more. Worst ofall, however, is the loss that can never be recovered: human life. . The increasing number and sev~rity of natural;disasters over the past decade demands that action be taken to reduce the threat that hurricanes, tornadoes, severe storms, floods and fires impose upon the nation's economy and the safety of its citizens. With Project Impact - Building a Disaster Resistant Community, FEMA is changing the way America deals with disasiers, Project Impact helps communities protect themselves from the devastating effects of natural disasters by taking actions that dramatically reduce disruption and loss, It worked for the Anheuser Busch brewery in earthquake-prone Northern California, In the early 1980s, the company invested $15 million to protect its facilities from a quake, The retrofitting was put to a severe test in 1994 when a quake whose epicenter was only 12 miles from the brewery rumbled through the area, Anheuser Busch estimates it saved $300 million in damages and lost production: Operations never stopped, and repair costs were minimal. This nationwide initiative, Project Impact, operates on this common-sense damage-reduction approach, basing its work and planning on three simple principles: preventive actions must be decided ai the local level; private sector participation is vital; and long-term efforts and investments in prevention measures are essential. In 1997, FEMA partnered with seven pilot communities across the country and was encouraged by the benefits seen and the determined commitment that flourished at the local level. This was a unique experiment: FEMA offered expertise and technical assistance from the national and regional level and included other federal agencies and states in the equation. FEMA has used all the available mechanisms to get the latest technology and mitigation practices into the hands of the local communities, Now, FEMA has nearly 200 project Impact communities, as well as over I, I 00 businesses have joined on as Project Impact partners. There is no doubt that Project Impact is a common sense approach for the way America deals with disasters, The incentive is clear: a disaster resistant community is able to bounce back from a natural disaster with far less loss of property and consequently much less cost for repairs, Moreover, the time lost from productive activity is minimized for both businesses and their employees. Indeed, FEMA estimates that for every dollar spent in damage prevention, two are saved in repairs, For more illformatioll abollt Project Impact ilt Miltllesota, please visit t/¡e DEM lVeb si Ie (( t: /¡ ttp :1111'11' II'. dps.sta te.IIIII.llsleme/'mf!tlimpactlill dex. /¡ tml Minnesota Project Impact Communities Steele County City of Burnsvil/e City of Fridley Washington County Upcoming Project Impact Events Wednesdav.

I MEMORANDUM TO: Todd Hoffman, Park and Recreation Director1P Jerry Ruegemer, Recreation Superintendent ~ March 16, 2000 FROM: . DATE: SUBJ: Response to City Manager Botcher's questions from March 13 City Council Meeting Questions were raised at the March 13 City Council meeting regarding the use of the Bandimere soccer fields by Chaska High School, and secondly, what is the function of the Ad Hoc Facility Committee? I'll briefly explain background on both questions, Marie Hasty, Chaska High School Athletic Director, contacted me in early February exploring the possibility of using the Bandimere Community Park soccer fields trom mid-August to mid-October for the boys and girls programs, The request was made because of the discussion of redeveloping the high school fields, The fields were never constructed properly and the clay soils are very detrimental to the site, As part of the recent successful school referendum, monies were identified for the tield corrections, District 112 requested to use the Bandimere fields as a back up plan in the event the redevelopment occurs, As of today, a final decision has not been made regarding the redevelopment project and a decision should be made within the next two weeks, When the inquiry was made by Marie Hasty, I felt it necessary to respond and honor District 112's request. On behalf of the city, I have worked hard to bridge the gap between School Districts 112 and 276 and the requests they make to the city, We have made great strides in working together in using each other's facilities, If District 276 submitted the same request, I would have responded similarly, In fact, Minnetonka High School has requested to use Lake Ann fields #4, #5, #6 Monday through Friday trom April 10 through the end of May for a slow pitch softball program. I have already approved their request to assist, and help make their program successful. It has been my philosophy, as the facility scheduler, to work with many different groups to remove barriers and work in collaboration creating a positive expenence, The Ad Hoc Committee is comprised of members of various athletic associations, School District 112, and representatives from the cities of Chaska and Chanhassen, The purpose of this committee is to discuss, review, and make recommendations regarding outdoor facilities, and redevelopment at the existing Todd Hoffinan 03/16/00 Page 2 Chaska High School, and the development of the new District 112 middle school being proposed for Chanhassen. It is the school district's desire to have input trom the community, creating a positive end result for these two major projects. If you have any additional questions or need clarification, please stop by my office. - , , CARVER COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT GENERAL ([.

Î ----- MEMORANDUM TO: Scott Botcher, City Manager FROM: Jerry Boucher, Utility Superintendent DATE: March 22, 2000 SUBJECT: Arsenic Levels in Chanhassen Water Recently there has becn a great concern over high levels of arsenic in the water supply of many Minnesota cities. Chanhassen is one of the cities with a high arsenic level and was mentioned as such on a TV news story about thrce wceks ago, I was also notified of this by the Minnesota Department of Health, and they suggested someone trom the City of Chanhassen attcnd an information session they were conducting for the cities that have a high arsenic level in their watcr. Assistant Utility Superintendent, Kelley Janes, attended this meeting, Attached is a summary of what was discussed, I bclievc this issue should not be taken lightly. Because of the attcntion the media is giving this issue, there is likcly to be a growing concern to the public regarding arsenic in our water. As outlined in the attachcd letter, therc are also changes likely to bc made that will directly affect Chanhasscn.

S, Environmental Protection Agency, As you are aware, we were specifically invited to attend the session due to the fact that our arsenic level (as stated in the Drinking Water Consumer Confidence Report) is a 8.4ug/L (8.4 micrograms/liter or 8.4 parts per billion) average, As the current MCL (Maximum Contaminant Level) is 50ug/L, we are well within both state and federal limits, The nature of the meeting was to inform us and approximately 130 other municipalities in Minnesota that a new MCL will be set that will put us in violation pertaining to newly proposed arsenic levels, CUl1'ently, the new MCL has not been officially established as of this writing, but a clear quorum of the presenters agreed that the MCL will be changed, and the preliminary indications that they were receiving were in the area of 5ug/L or lower, This will be confirmed possibly as soon as mid-May, The presenters stated that a lower level was, and still could possibly be set, but cost-effective laboratory procedures cUl1'ently available have an inaccuracy ratio that would prohibit just enforcement of the level. The following is a chronological order of events that can be expected in the near future: 1/2000 PROPOSED RULE PUBLISHED (60-90 day comment period; poss. In May) 1/2001 FINAL RULE 1/200 I COMPLIANCE MONITORING STARTS 2002-2004 NOTICE OF VIOLATION SENT 2004-2007 TREATMENT OR ALTERNATE SOURCE REQUIRED If this course of events holds true as proposed, our system will be independently monitored throughout 2001. If our Arsenic level exceeds the new MCL during that period, we will receive a notification of violation in 2002, Quarterly compliance monitoring will result. In addition, all water users connected to the system will have to be notified individually with each exceedance, By 2004, we will have to initiate construction of treatment facilities or abandon the affected wells, Comments After discussion with Karla Peterson, P,E., Minnesota Department of Health, and Dr. Marc Edwards, Virginia Tech, lead researcher for the U,S. EPA Arsenic Study, I am convinced that the regulation changes and timeline stated earlier will commence as scheduled, Because of the public sensitivity to water issues such as this, and virtually no alternate options, I believe that we will have to construct treatment facilities. The availability of alternative aquifers with which to establish new wellheads is not possible under DNR restrictions, and abandonment of the existing wells in favor of new sites is a poor fiscal option, In addition, receipt of notification of violation as early as next year will have a profoundly negative effect with consumer confidence, and will create undesired public scrutiny, On the other hand, if we are proactive with this decision, we will be able to offer a "solution in the works" game plan to the residents, and also be capable of solving our other water quality, water loss and aesthetic problems, Removal of arsenic occurs as part of the process for the removal of iron and manganese and could easily be incorporated into a conventional filtration treatment process, We should also be aware that this new regulation is a Federal mandate, affecting many municipalities across Minnesota, the Midwest, and the United States, Waiting for the deadline before initiating construction could substantially increase product and systems costs, manufacturing delays as well as engineering fees that could inevitably result from supply vs, demand, Unfortunately, due to the vast scope of construction and modification of treatment systems that will surely result from this regulation change, and our per-resident fiscal demographic, I foresee little or no outside financial assistance available to us in this undertaking, I would be happy to answer any questions on this summary at your convenience, Respectfully Submitted, 1/, .1 , "" 'ý" ~jL:¿,['¿"'!i-->j"&"j¿C 'J~ I .).....

As you also know, it is crucial that construction of this project be completed by the end of July 2002, because of the Professional Golf Association ("PGA") tournament which is being held at Hazeltine National Golf Course in August 2002, Such huge tournaments give a great deal of public recognition and attention to the State of Minnesota and our a tremendous economic boon to the State and the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. Certainly, it is important to avoid the appearance of being unprepared to host the tournament so that there is the greatest possibility of obtaining future such tournaments, We are advised that it is uncertain whether the project will be completed by August I, 2002, if it is not let in May 2000. We are advised that the Right of Way Section will be meeting with affected property owners on March 23, 2000, to attempt to satisfY the owners' preconditions to granting rights of entry to their property for construction, One of the concerns of owners which I have had reported to me is that the permit recite MnDOT's agreement that interest will accrue on the damages ultimately determined to be due to the owner as a result of the taking trom the date that the State enters their property for construction, Eminent domain is my principal area of legal practice, I am convinced that the owners' request in this respect is consistent with what the owners are entitled to receive RJL-177742vl LN400-S1 Mr. Richard Slehr March 22, 2000 Page 2 under applicable Minnesota law and that they will and should be successful in court on this point if it is necessary to resolve the issue, In short, the owners' request is reasonable and should be approved, Another request trom owners that has been reported to me is that they wish to have the State indemnifY them for damages which may result trom injuries occurring after the State enters their property. I understand that the State is unwilling to do this and takes the position that it is not legally able to do this, However, I also believe that the owners and the State should be able to agree on a provision in the permit which commits the State to require that its contractor provide insurance for the benefit of the owners and the public against any cIairns, injuries or damages that may be caused by the contractors' entry upon the property pursuant to the permit. If the concern of the owner is that the owner still owns the property as to which the permit is given, perhaps that concern can be resolved by conveying MnDOT fee title or a permanent easement with respect to the portion of the owner's property which will be permanently committed to the road improvements and a temporary easement with respect to the portion which will only temporarily be committed to construction, if those instruments would be more acceptable to the owner than a permit to enter. I am guessing that the owners' concern must relate to temporary easement areas and the contractor presumably will be expected to provide insurance which will protect the property owner during the period that the contractor is on the property, If that is so, it seems reasonable for MnDOT to agree in the permit that it will require its contractor to provide such insurance. Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the March 23 meeting with affected property owners, as I will be out of the State, However, I hope that you will do all you can to attempt to persuade those in a position at MnDOT to influence the negotiations that it is of the utmost importance to creatively address the concerns ofthe owners so as to attempt to keep the project on schedule, I understand that, in the event it is not possible to obtain rights of entry trom owners prior to April 15, 2000, it will have been possible to have made offers to all affected property owners ITom whom permits have not been obtained and to file condemnation proceedings and give quick take notices to those affected owners by Apri115, 2000, If a 90-day notice is given as is permissible under Minn, Stat. § 117.042, title and possession of the condemned parcels could be obtained by approximately July 15,2000, Thank you for whatever you can do to keep this project moving towards completion by July 31, 2002, RJL-I77742vl LN400-51 Me, Richard Stehr March 22, 2000 Page 3 If you need to discuss this with me, I will probably be most reachable on Wednesday, March 22, 2000.

Transportation - Civil- Structural- Environmental- Planning - Traffic - Landscape Architecture - Parking MEETING SUMMARY IDGHWAY 101 RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING (KURVERS POINT NEIGHBORHOOD) January 15,2000 Location: Chanhassen City Hall Attendees: Kurvers Point Neighborhood Association (26 homes represented) Anita Benson, City of Chanhassen Roger Gustafson, Carver County David Juliff, SRF Consulting Group, Inc. Tim Phenow, SRF Consulting Group, Inc, From: SRF Consulting Group, Inc. Date: January 28, 2000 (Revised February 9. 2000) Anita Benson began the meeting at 10:40 a,m. by introducing the Project Management Team members in attendance and indicating that a number of documents were available at the front of the room, She also stated that the Chanhassen City Council had eliminated Concepts 5 and 6 from further discussion. and that no additional engineering had been completed since the previous Public Open Houses in September. The purpose of the meeting was not to select an alternative, but to answer specific questions regarding the various concepts and to find out what the major concerns are to the residents, Comments in italics were added from minutes taken by the Kurvers Point Homeowner's Association representative. The Homeowners Association representative indicated that there are five points that they have collectively agreed to and want conveyed to the Chanhassen City Council, and those points are as follows: · Maintain the current configuration (number of lanes, etc.) of Highway 101 · Repair the roadway (not just an overlay if an overlay is not appropriate) · Install signals at Valley View Road and Pleasantview Road · Proceed immediately with minimum impact trail - minimum construction, no additional right of way or easements, minimum tree and vegetation removal · Proceed expeditiously - this is a high priority One Carlson Parkway North, Suite 150, Minneapolis, MN 55447-4443 Telephone (612) 475-0010 .

The neighborhood representative indicated that they do not want a regional trail; they stated that they wanted a minimal impact trail or nothing at all. Mr. Juliff explained that in the four concepts being considered at this point, the impact to the existing berm on the west side of Highway 101 in the vicinity of the Kurvers Point neighborhood would be on the order of a three- to six-foot cut. This means that the height of the berm would be reduced between three and six feet. He also explained that where the cut would be six feet, the roadway profile is proposed to be lowered by three feet. Therefore, the net effect would be a lowering of the berm (relative to the roadway) of three feet in this area, In addition, with the use of retaining walls in this area, it is likely that impacts to the berm could be reduced. However, the residents indicated that they would prefer not to lose the vegetation on this berm and want the trail constructed within the existing right of way where possible. A resident expressed concern that the drawings did not show the current easements. Concepts 2, 3 and 4 show a green line indicating construction limits that would move the berm back and destroy all the existing vegetation from the swimming pool along the entire length of the neighborhood. Residents felt this would destroy the rural character and would not be acceptable, There were a number of questions regarding the use of Turnback Funds for the project and also the process of Turnback, Mr. Gustafson explained that currently Hennepin County has entered in to an agreement with MN/DOT for rnaintenance of Highway 101, while Carver County still has not done so, There are a number of reasons for this, one of which is the cost of maintenance, Carver County has not been willing to accept all of Highway 101 through Chanhassen due to the amount of additional money that Carver County may have to spend on maintenance of the roadway in its present poor condition, Mr. Gustafson also stated that Carver County is trying to negotiate with MN/DOT to obtain a maintenance understanding about the roadway before turnback, This disagreement on maintenance issues is a main reason that Carver County and MN/DOT have not signed a Highway 101 turnback agreement. If the decision is made to overlay the existing roadway, Carver County may decide not to accept the roadway and maintenance would remain in MN/DOT's control. He noted that MN/DOT has not and probably will not maintain the roadway to any higher level than exists today, In addition, he noted that there are complications to constructing a trail within the existing corridor. The main complication is that MN/DOT still owns the westerly portion of the Highway 10 I corridor, and that MN/DOT has the ability to deny a request to construct such a trail within their right of way. It was suggested by a resident that the maintenance costs would be lower for a two lane roadway than for another "494", It was also suggested that the roadway be left in the current configuration, but to improve the base/structure of the roadway. Frustration was expressed by residents that we paid development fees for a trail, and paid increased taxes for a trail referendum. and still we are disconnected from the city of Chanhassen, The trail is not simply a recreational issue, but is vital to the safety of our residents, Highway 10 1 Project/Kurvers Point Neighborhood Meeting Summary -3- February 9, 2000 There was also concern regarding the Eden Prairie Director of Public Works' statement at previous meetings that Dell Road would not be used as an arterial, and that the City of Chanhassen had not taken the same position for Highway 101. Some residents in attendance stated that the City Council and City Officials will be held accountable for their actions on this project, and that the role of the City Council and Ms, Benson is to give the people what they want. Residents expressed the overwhelming sentiment of the people attending last faU's Open House was for a two lane road, City officials should get the message loud and clear that the taxpayers do not want our tax money spent on a project that negatively impacts our property values and quality of living, Ms, Benson noted that one of her primary roles as City Engineer is to help ensure the safety of the public and to make recommendations to the City Council based on engineering judgement. She went on to explain that Dell Road is classified as a collector in the Eden Prairie Comprehensive Plan, while Highway 101 is designated a minor arterial in the Comprehensive Transportation Plans for Chanhassen, Carver County, Hennepin County and Eden Prairie. Within the term "minor arterial", there are different design standards and ways to design the roadway to slow down traffic and make the road safer without turning it into a commuter expressway, A cornment was made by a resident that Highway 101 in Minnetonka and Wayzata is also classified as a minor arterial and that those segments are only two-lane sections, Therefore, the resident concluded, Highway 101 in ChanhassenlEden Prairie should be a two-lane roadway, The new 101 bridge in Wayzata is being built as a two lane bridge, and the sharp s-curve is remaining. Minnetonka improved Hwy 101 between Hwy 62 and Hwy 7 this year by repaving a two lane roadway, adding a trail and a stoplight, Residents questioned that even though their traffic count was higher than our stretch of road, these improvements were made without widening those roadways, Residents felt that these communities listened to their constituents who did not want a change in the current configuration of the road, and Chanhassen should give its residents the same support, Ms, Benson indicated that she would like to understand what issues are important to the neighborhood regarding any reconstruction of Highway 101. The concerns of the neighborhood were increased noise, increased traffic, loss of berms and landscaping, potential increases in speed on the roadway, the safety of the users of the roadway as well as a desire to create a safe connection for pedestrians and bicyclists, negative changes to the neighborhoods due to the character of the roadway, negative impacts to property values and taxes, The residents of this area would like to have the character of their neighborhood preserved. A number of questions were raised towards the end of the meeting regarding the process for Highway 101, whether money was available to construct a trail in 2000, and what the next steps should be, Mr, Senn indicated that funds are not in the current budget to construct a trail in the year 2000, but it is in the 2001-2002 budget. He indicated that this could be changed to construct a trail in 2000, but another concern is the ability to use Highway 101 ProjectlKurvers Point Neighborhood Meeting Summary -4- February 9, 2000 MN/DOT right of way to construct a trail. He also stated that the reason that funding for this trail was not in the 2000 budget was because the Council did not want to give a false impression that the trail would be constructed in 2000. As for the process, Ms. Benson noted that the Chanhassen City Council had instructed her to proceed as quickly as possible with the neighborhood meetings to facilitate a Council decision on a preferred concept in March.· However, she stated this is unlikely given that many of the neighborhood meetings are not scheduled until the end of February, as well as the need for additional Open Houses/Public Meetings. She said that June was probably a more realistic goal. Other comments by residents included that it was not necessary to design the roadway to "projected traffic" as these are only guesses, not reality; with the idea that "if you build it, they will come," and you will create more traffic by widening the road, not necessarily making the existing road safer, the fiscal issue regarding maintenance of the roadway is not important to the neighborhood, but the character of the roadway is important; (the neighborhood disagrees that the statement was made by residents that the fiscal issue was not important) it was expressed that the road should not be built to a higher level than necessary simply because tumback funds exist, and we as taxpayers were willing to pay for improvements as needed in the future; the neighborhood is asking the engineers to support their view; residents chose to live in our neighborhood, and are telling you "We don't want this, We don ~ need this. Support our views in your engineering recommendations," responses to the questions from the neighborhood meetings were skewed, In addition, Mr. Senn stated that he has not heard from a single person that wants more than a two-lane roadway that does not change the existing character of the roadway, In closing, the neighborhood representatives stated that they do not want to continue this process any longer - they already know the issues and do not want to spend any additional time studying the corridor. The request is to give them what they want as conveyed at the beginning of the meeting by the five points: · Maintain the current configuration (number of lanes, etc,) of Highway 101 · Repair the roadway (not just an overlay if an overlay is not appropriate) · Install signals at Valley View Road and Pleasantview Road · Proceed immediately with minimum impact trail - minimum construction, no additional right of way or easements, minimum tree and vegetation removal · Proceed expeditiously - this is a high priority The above represents SRF Consulting Group's interpretation of the Highway 101 ReconstructionlKurvers Point Neighborhood Meeting held on January 15, 2000.

That pedestrian andbicyclc transportation facilities be provided in the corridor. 3. That the functional classification in the approved Transportation Plans of affected agencies for TH 101 and parallel routes be the basis for predicting future traffic volumes and design criteria. 4. That expected growth in the service area and regional transportation needs be fully considered in the p)ann;T1g and design process. 5. That a simple overlay and minor maintenance will not adequately address safety and design issues in the corridor and therefore be e1im;nat<!d from consideration. 6. That even though it is unlikely a two-lane roadway win adequately address the criteria above, key environmental impacts and specific transportation needs be more fully developed for: · Concept Design 2 - two lanes with intersection and signal improvements and trails on both sides · Concept Design 3 - similar to Concept 2, but with a continuous center-left turn lane · Concept Design 4 - four. lane undivided. with intersection and signal improvements and trails on both sides. 7. That details developed as indicated in 6. above, be the basis of additional public meetings with a goal of narrowing the scope to one preferred design concept by September, 2000. 8. That final environmental documentation necessary to obtain layout approval be . developed by January, 200l. 9. That after Step 8, a working committee with staff and citizens be established to meet on a periodic basis to review final design details, review compliance with layout plan approval and provide input on mitigation details with a goal of final design completion by January, 2002. 10. That a Spring, 2002-construction start be scheduled. 11. That the entire procC'.ss maintain rigorous attention to communication and a schedule of public meetings to keep area residents fully informed of progress and decisions.
