SUBJ: Review Public Works Auxiliary Storage Building Design
I Concept and Award of Bids for Foundation Construction
Project No. 89-23A
IThis item was tabled from the November 6 , 1989 City Council
meeting to allow staff to further review the design concepts for
this building and to reaffirm the cost estimate projections for
II this building. The attached September 21 , 1989 staff report and
City Council minutes from September 25 and October 2 are provided
to refresh everyone 's memory concerning the cost discussions and
anticipated timing for the use of temporary storage and comple-
tion of the City ' s building.
Concerning the design concept for the new auxiliary building, I
I have attached building elevation sheets prepared by EOS
Architects. The old Public Works buildings which were demolished
were approximately 4800 square feet in area. The building
I exterior, which represents approximately 40% of the estimated
construction cost, is sealed concrete rock-face block walls
painted to match our existing Public Works facilities and con-
sistent with the zoning requirements of the business park.
' Questions have been raised as to the cost estimates for this pro-
ject. The actual bids received will obviously provide us with
the necessary answer concerning this matter.
IWe have approached this building as directed by Council to pro-
vide a replacement facility, no more-no less. The City obviously
I benefits from several standpoints, all of which have been
thoroughly discussed during the negotiations for the sale of the
old facility. I believe we have basically a "bare-bone" proposal
I here in that there is no plumbing or floor slab proposed in
construction and no heating, although some basic prudent provi-
sions have been provided for in the event that heating would be
added in the future. The square footage is almost identical to
Ithe old facility.

In an effort to further address the cost concerns , we have
requested a contractor to provide us a review of the plans and
ballpark a cost estimate for us for the building. I hope to have
this available for presentation at Monday night's Council
meeting.
If the City is to proceed with completion of the auxiliary faci-
lity in a reasonable timely fashion in 1990 , it is recommended
' that we proceed with the construction this fall of the foun-
dation. Since the estimate for this element is under $15 ,000 ,
quotations have been solicited from four local contracting firms.
Bids are being received on Friday, November 17 and will be pre-
sented to the City Council at Monday night 's meeting. The cost
estimate is based on the attached Auxiliary Storage Building
Phase I plans. The recommendation for award of the foundation
contract will be made at Monday night 's meeting after staff has
had a chance to review the bids and is satisfied with the low
bidder .

SUBJ: Consideration of Acquisition of Public Works Facility
II
at the Corner of 82nd Street and Hwy. 41
II The City Council at their August 28, 1989, meeting, directed I
staff to proceed with negotiations with Nordic Track in acquiring
the public works facility at the corner of 82nd Street and Hwy.
I 41. Since this meeting, staff has asked Jack Anderson of EOS
I
Architecture to provide an estimate for the construction of a
5,000 square foot cold storage facility to be located at the
11 existing public works facility site in the Chanhassen Lakes
Business Park. Based on Mr. Anderson' s best estimates for a
facility of this size and with similar materials as used on the II
existing public works facility, the cost would be in the range of
II $136,000 to $150,000. The 82nd Street facility is presently II being used to store snow plow blades, sanding equipment, trucks,
etc. Jerry Schlenk, Maintenance Superintendent for the City has
11 requested that if the City Council should sell the buildings, II that it be contingent upon the completion of the new facility
before they are to vacate equipment stored in the existing faci-
lity at 82nd Street. The advantages of selling the facility
would be to centralize the public works storage and functions
II
into one location.
IIThe proposed purchase price for the one acre site is $100,000. II The Pauls, the prospective buyers, have also expressed that they
would like to take complete ownership of the property right away
II and that the city would be asked to move their equipment out at
the time that ownership would take place.
I
RECOMMENDATION
IIStaff recommends that the City Council accept the offer of I
$100,000 with the contingency that the city occupy the existing
11 building until the new facility is completed. Staff would also
recommend that the additional $36,000 to $50,000 needed to
II
complete the construction of a new facility and that those monies
II come from revenues remaining from the General Fund. Mr. Pauls
will also be present at Monday night' s meeting to answer any II questions that the Council may have.

If LAND SALE AGREEMENT, SOUTHWEST CORNER OF HIGHWAY 41 AND WEST 82ND STREET, GLEN
II Todd Gerhardt: Mr. Mayor? Item 9, do you want to take action on that tonight?
Mr. Pawls is here and is somewhat anxious to try to...
' Mayor Chmiel: Everyone's picking up and leaving. I think we will adjourn and
I'm sorry Mr. Paul. What we will do is...
Councilman Johnson: Does he accept staff's position?
Councilwoman Dimler: I think we should discuss it.
'
Mayor C oriel: Yeah I think that's going to be a discussion so with that we will
continue this next Monday at 7:30 here in the Council chambers.
Glen Pauls: ...we're starting to grade the lot next to it and we're
basically...we're going to start grading on it.
Councilman Johnson: We were going to ask that it stay over winter anyway.
Glen Pauls: That's our problem...
Councilman Workman: Mr. Mayor, we have a possible annexation there I would
think from the City of Chaska, etc. and I think it's something that we need to
discuss. If not tonight, Monday night.
I Mayor Chmiel: Which would mean they remove their offer for that specific
parcel?
' Councilman Johnson: Sure. It's a dead issue if we table it. It's a dead issue
if we deny it.
' Mayor Cimiel: What's the wishes here? What should we do?
Councilman Boyt: Let's discuss it. It got my attention.
I Mayor Chmiel: Okay, we will go on with item 9. Consider acquisition of public
works facility, corner of 82nd Street and Highway 41. Glen Pauls. You've got
the floor right now.
IITodd Gerhardt: The City Council at their August 28th meeting directed staff to
work with Mr. Pauls in negotiating a purchase price for the existing public
I works building on West 82nd Street. At this time we have agreed to the purchase
price of $100,000.00 for the property. Mr. Pauls' request for that $100,000.00
for the property is that they take ownership immediately. Staff is making the
recommendation that we keep the facility until the new one is constructed and
IIMr. Pauls is here to make his request of why he needs that immediately. Glen?
Glen Pauls: I'm Glen Pauls with Nordic Track from Chaska. I guess as I showed
I in the last meeting, the building we're building is right on the land behind
your property. We've been trying to negotiate out a price for sale on the
property. We would like we said earlier when we got into this whole deal, we
72
City Q uncil Meeting - September 25, 1989 1
were pretty much led to believe that this was all been taken care of between the
two cities and that it was going to go smoothly but it's been a little harder
than I thought but I guess what we've been trying to get through here is that
we're starting grading. They're going to start cutting same of the underbrush
tomorrow and the grading's going to probably start Thursday maybe. Wednesday or
Thursday. If we have to grade around that site, that's going to cost a lot moz
for us to came back and cut it down later and I guess at that point we'd just "
like to grade around it and leave it. Mist build behind it. It really doesn't
affect our building. We have to move about 15 parking stalls to another area
but it doesn't really bother the other site that Hoch and being that we're a
mail order company, we're not really out for appearance. We're not trying to
attract, we're not looking for words for the building or anything. We're just
out to build a building. We need more space. The main thing is we've got to
get going now because we've got a time restraint so we've put in an offer of
$100,000.00 for a lot that we feel is only worth about $50,000.00, even with the
buildings on it. We've made offers to look into helping maybe move some of your
stuff into a mini-storages around here being that there seems to be an extra
amount or surplus mini-storage space available. I guess none of that seems to
be enough to sway you into selling the property so we'd just like to say that
we're basically to withdraw all offers and just go around it and see what
happens.
Councilwoman Dimler: Well I guess I'll start out. You know we never had the
need to sell it in the first place. We would still have to spend between '
$36,000.00 to $50,000.00 for storage of those implements. We're not ready to
move out before next spring and you're in a hurry to get going and you want to
withdraw your offer. I guess that's what you'll have to do. '
Glen Pauls: I guess the only problem can came up with MMDot requiring us, it's
supposed to be downhill. The grade is supposed to be downhill off of TH 41 onto
82nd Street there and it's 13 foot uphill. I don't know what the percent grade
is but I guess Chaska's already gone through with, I guess they're pretty much
proposed grading that down for you. Doing the work and actually cutting the
dirt down. ,
Councilwoman Dimler: That was all premature. I did bring the question up of
annexation with Todd but we've never agreed to anything. '
Glen Pauls: I don't know about annexation. I think they were just going to do
it even if you still owned it. I'm not sure how that all went. I wasn't in on
that part of it. '
Mayor Chmiel: /hose are the things that we don't know.
Councilman Workman: I was having a burger down at Butch's a couple weeks ago
and Alderman Dale Diedrick, proprietor of the place and I ended up sitting and
talking for a little bit. I spend a lot of time down in Chaska. In fact, right
in City Hall and I would like to work something out here. I think we should
give it to Chaska. Somehow...
Councilwoman Dimler: But they're in a hurry now. '
Councilman Workman: Again, I think these are issues that are looming large for
the citizens of our community. I'm not sure Don where we're going to came up '
73
11
City Council Meeting - September 25, 1989
IIwith the extra cash for building this and I understand the positives. Again,
it's a situation, we're in a tough pickle and I appreciate if it's an
outstanding offer, we appreciate that. Again, it doesn't hide the fact that
I we're going to have to spend sane more money at a time when we're looking at
cutting a million out of our budget but somebody's going to have to tell me how :
we justify it to the people of Chanhassen that we sold off same sheds that we've
Inow got to improve. We're going to improve for the purpose of consolidation.
Councilman Johnson: I don't know why anybody's talking about annexation though.
II That's in the city limits of Chaska. It's not the City of Chanhassen property.
Councilwoman Dimler: Yeah it is.
IITodd Gerhardt: It's in the City of Chanhassen.
_ Councilwoman Dimler: Once they purchased it, they would want to annex it to
Chaska.
Councilman Johnson: Well that'd have to be a condition of the sale is that they
don't do that. They it remains Chanhassen.
IIDon Ashworth: Keep an open mind in that area because if all of this would
occur, right now we're doing maintenance on that west side of 82nd or west side
' of 41 and Chaska' doing the east side. We simply go down 300 feet and then
that's it. We turn around. It's a dead end run for us. If this property were
to be sold to the Pauls, and I think that's the most logical use for the
II property. I don't know of anyone other that might cane in and use it but if
that were to occur, it would only be logical at that point in time that all of
their parcel would be within the City of Chaska and they would take over the
entire maintenance and building and everything else associated with 82nd Street.
' I would echo Tom's comments. I hear a statement that we need to do something
tonight and I would only hope that the applicant would recognize that at 12:00,
good decisions aren't made. If we could have potentially a committee, I might
I think, maybe if we could talk between the council but Tam, since you're in the
area. I don't know who else on the Council, maybe meet with the Pauls and the
City of Chaska or representatives and see if we can come back with something for
this next Monday night.
IICouncilman Boyt: If I might, I think we ought to sell it. The question is, are
we giving up $150,000.00 worth of storage space here or are we not? I would
gather that you could make the argument either way but my guess is, given what
the property is worth to sane other buyer, we're not giving up $100,000.00 worth
of space in all likelihood and it's a chance to get your expansion done
Iproperly. That helps the County and school district which is a big part of
Chanhassen so I want to see us do it. I think $100,000.00 is a good offer but
the dilemma is, what do we do with our equipment? Everything is good except we
can't just park that stuff on a field samewhere. Have you got an answer for
IIthat?
Glen Pauls: Yeah, I've been trying to find same places for you. I don't know,
' there's a couple different things. Mini-storages, I'd have to see what you have
but from what I heard, it's just mowers and what not in the wintertime.
Councilman Boyt: Is that what we're talking? No big trucks?
74
i
City Council Meeting - September 25, 1989
Todd Gerhardt: There are same trucks that are stored out there. One truck in
particular Jerry told me. Mowers. A lot of sign equipment. That was the list
he gave me. He didn't give me a detailed list but those were part of that and I
think we could work something out or find sane alternative storage.
Councilman Boyt: Before a proposal tonight that said in principle we had sold
the property for $100,000.00 provided the City and Mr. Pauls, or his people, can
find a home and sanewhat convenient or at least no more inconvenient home for
the equipment that's stored there until next spring. If we can get that done, I
think that we ought to sell the property.
Mayor Chmiel: I guess I agree to a certain point with that Bill. The only
thing that bothers me is the fact that it's still going to cost our city to put
in a building of equal size anywhere from $36,000.00 to $50,000.00 more.
Councilman Johnson: Putting a lot better building.
Mayor Chmiel: We may be having another better building. We may be
consolidating everything and having everything closer but nonetheless the dollar
expenditure is going to be there. '
Glen Pauls: I've got a copy of this plan that you're proposing to build your
building and I think you could build as good a building or a lot better than
what you have now for less money than that. I mean they're looking at insulated
building right now because you might want to heat it. I don't know if you're
storing plows, you obviously don't need to insulate it.
Mayor Chmiel: We can't build a building like we have there.
Glen Pauls: No, but I mean you can build a concrete building I think for around
$100,000.00. I think $150,000.00 you're getting a few extras in there.
Mayor Chmiel: I did a couple checkings with a couple contractors and they told
me we're in the ballpark from $136,000.00 to $150,000.00.
Glen Pauls: For the building on the drawing yes, but what I'm saying is I think
there might be sane things you could pull off that. If you're really looking to
get, if you're looking to get a minimal building that will go along with your
ordinances. Like the floor drains and what not, I don't know if that's really
necessary in a building there. '
Todd Gerhardt: Code requires floor drains and it's only practical to have an
insulated roof and walls is what the architect recommended. We've got to stay
with the same type of architectural style with the cracked off cinder block is
the existing public works, just for unity in that area. I don't know, we've
talked about this a lot. Metal buildings aren't allowed in the industrial park
and you would save minimal dollars taking the insulation out of the walls and
out of the roof. The floor drains, again you're talking less than, a total of
those two I would think no more than $5,000.00. The insulation and the floor
drain.
Councilman Boyt: So we want to do a deal, I think and the tion is, ,
we cover the City's concern for storages • how do
75
t
City Council Meeting - September 25, 1989
Councilman Workman: I think it's trying to I've explain to people that I ve got to
explain to how Chanhassen got smaller and we're going to pay 50 grand to do it.
' I mean it's just the economics of the whole thing and I've heard nothing but
good things about Nordic Track and the whole operation but it's a situation that
we're put into that we're being asked to do something at this point that we
' never would have thought of otherwise. Or were thinking.
Councilman Johnson: One thing we would be doing is adding to the school
district's tax base because right now that is city property. Do we pay property
' taxes on that? We're exempt?
Councilwoman Dimler: No, but it's just going to be a parking lot correct?
IGlen Pauls: Part of it yeah.
' Councilwoman Dimler: You're not going to get much revenue off of that.
Glen Pauls: We have about 300 employees working there right now. We move out
II of other building, that's going to bring in another company of another 100,000
square foot here.
Councilman Boyt: Are you in the tax increment district down there?
IGlen Pauls: Yeah.
II Councilman Boyt: So you're really contributing immediately to, except for maybe
employees.
Councilman Workman: I would be willing to give than that property for free if
Iyou would trade us the same size parcel of his and our park.
Don Ashworth: We looked at that and they do have sane parcels and they were
literally across the street.
Glen Pauls: The problem is, the parcel they have over there is that's owned by
Nordic Track and the parcel over here we own personally. I guess we can make
II sane sort of deal there but I don't know what, would you want a piece to put
buildings on there or just a public utility? What would you do with that piece
of property?
ICouncilman Workman: It still would cost us money.
II Mayor Qimiel: We're still out storage and we still have to pay for the cost
differences between the two.
Councilman Johnson: It's more expensive to build on a vacant lot then attach it
Ito an existing building.
Councilman Boyt: So where are we going with this?
II Don Ashworth:
• Basically we have a 30 year old building that basically is
depreciated out. You're going to have to consider sane form of replacement
sometime in the near future and you've got an offer to help the construction for
76
City Council Meeting - September 25, 1989 1
a new facility that truly has a $100,000.00 value. I think again, maybe if we
could meet, I don't care, maybe Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and maybe come back
with same solution that meets all concerns and wrap it up next Monday night. If
in the meantime you made a decision that that's it, you can't wait that long,
well I guess that's the way it is.
Councilwoman Dimler: That's right. We can't be put under that sort of '
pressure.
Don Ashworth: If I hear the people, you'd like to work something out if you '
can.
Mayor Qmiel: Yeah. If it's at all possible. That's right. I
Councilman Workman: Again, I think the issue is also larger. It's unfortunate
for the Pauls and what they've been placed in but we need to get together with
Chaska because the deal was done before we even saw it with a piece of our
property. I hate to be greedy and grabby but that's what I think we need to
discuss.
Don Ashworth: Can we get 1 or 2 of their council members to sit in on that type '
of meeting?
Councilman Workman: Sure. I think Dale was agreeable. Bob Lindahl could
probably get up.
Councilman Boyt: The way you explain this, we have an offer that's greater than
the appraised value of that property and to turn that offer down is chancey. I
think we ought to accept the offer.
Councilman Johnson: We'll never get $100,000.00 for that again. '
Mayor Qmiel: I agree but we have to get the bottom dollar which is still the
replacement.
Councilman Workman: Can you give us another week?
Glen Pauls: I guess if we can be somewhat assured we can get something worked '
out here, we could hold off a little bit. Like I said, we're going to start
grading. '
Mayor C oriel: Why don't we do what Don suggested. That we get a couple council
members to meet with him and sit down and cane up with some kind of conclusion.
If that's acceptable. '
Councilman Johnson: I move we table item 9 until next Monday night so staff has
time to work it out for, especially the winter cold storage needs because we've
got to know exactly do we have the ability to store that equipment over the
winter and where we're going to store all that equipment over the winter. That
to me is the most critical. The $36,000.00 to $50,000.00 is, we're going to
have to replace that building sooner or later and this seems to be the best time
to do it.

- Mayor Chmiel: We were to have some additional discussions this past week. Have ,
those taken place?
Le ICouncilwanan Dimler: Yes. I__Mayor Chniel: Who'd like to update me?
Don Ashworth: Tom or Todd or Ursula? I
Councilwanan Dialer: I guess I can. I'm surprised. I guess I don't know, this
was just handed to me. I don't know what the new proposal is that we met was, I
II
believe it was Wednesday or was it Thursday in Chaska. Chaska City Hall with
Jake Pokorney and at that point Mr. Glen Pauls was there and he indicated to
Todd, myself and Tom that the offer had been withdrawn. I
Mayor Chniel: The offer has been withdrawn?
Councilwanan Dirtier: At that point it was, yes. So whatever is here before us
II
this evening is new information to us.
Councilman Workman: The offer had been withdrawn on Monday night he stated at
the Council meeting. II
Don Ashworth: He came in late today. Handed me what I gave you. The purchase
agreement and said, the Council asked that we submit this as a final offer.
II
So I don't know what that means. That's all he had said to me.
Councilwoman Dimler: After our last meeting it was my understanding that the I
offer was withdrawn and there was nothing caning forth and we did not ask for
another offer that I recall.
Councilman Boyt: Can't we clear this up? Mr. Pauls is standing right here. I
Glen Pauls: Glen Pauls, Nordic Track. I guess they asked me at Chaska to put
one more offer. I don't know, I forget if we talked about that when you were
II
• there or after you guys left but they wanted me to basically try to get. I
guess Chaska wants it resolved. They would like it resolved I should say and
they wanted us to put in one offer being that we are interested. Obviously
II
we're interested in getting the land but we just weren't interested at that
1 II
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
price so just to get something done tonight we thought we'd put in one more
offer just to see where it goes.
' Councilman Boyt: What is the offer?
Glen Pauls: I think you have copies.
' Councilman Boyt: Maybe you could explain it. ..
Glen Pauls: It's $60,000.00 offer I guess.
' Councilman Boyt: Why the difference?
Glen Pauls: From the $100,000.00?
Councilman Boyt: Yes.
t y
Glen Pauls: Like I explained to the 3 that were, I guess you weren't there, at
the meeting. We went over it. We decided the $100,000.00 was way more than we
really wanted to pay. I guess I should clarify, the way the $100,000.00 worked
' out was we never actually offered the full $100,000.00. Chaska was offering
$15,000.00. We were offering $85,000.00 and they were offering $15,000.00 to
make it up so the highest we ever went personally, NordicTrack ever went was
' $85,000.00. Where we're at now is we thought that was way too much. We decided
not to. I should say we decided to withdraw the offer last Friday. We had to
give you a chance obviously to take it because we had offered it but after that
we just decided it wasn't worth that. We are willing to go the $60,000.00 just
because of the convenience of the whole operation. It would be kind of a mess
in front of there but we've had some discussions about roads and the whole thing
but basically this is just kind of a last attempt type deal. Chaska really
wanted us to try and resolve it.
Councilman Boyt: How much of this $65,000.00 or whatever is money from Chaska?
Glen Pauls: The $60,000.00 offer is money, that's completely from us now.
That's just what we would offer. I don't know, did Don Ashworth call you Todd
' today?
Todd Gerhardt: I talked to Dave Pokorney today and there still would be an
additional $15,000.00 added to the $60,000.00 offer. If I could clarify what
1 the $15,000.00 would be for would be for roadway easements for the upgrading of
82nd Street is what Chaska's interest in this property would be.
II Councilman Boyt: Before on Monday it seemed to me that you mentioned or a week
ago, that this was going to be in a tax increment district? Is that correct?
Todd Gerhardt: It's in an economic development district in the Chaska city
boundaries.
Councilman Boyt: How is that different?
IITodd Gerhardt: Economic development? It is a tax increment district.
Councilman Johnson: This acreage isn't?

City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
Todd Gerhardt: Not ours, no.
Glen Pauls: The piece behind it was.
Councilman Johnson: The acreage behind is?
Councilman Boyt: So if I understand it correctly, then of course our P iece
can't be in their tax increment district but because it's not in the tax
increment district, then it's really a different kind of financial commitment
than the development you're making on your own property. Is that right? If
your current property is in a tax increment district, then the money you are
spending to improve that is, I assume you have a Housing and Redevelopment
Authority that's really handling that expenditure. Isn't that correct?
Todd Gerhardt: The roadway improvements, the monies to pay for those roadway
improvements would be assessed back against the benefitting properties but those
dollars can't be expended outside the district so somehow they would have to put
a boundary outside that roadway so they could spend those monies on that
roadway. I haven't seen their maps to show where their district boundaries are
Bill so I can't...
Councilman Boyt: Well wasn't there discussion a week ago that basically Chaska
would be looking to annex this piece of property once the City had sold it?
Todd Gerhardt: That is a possibility.
Councilman Boyt: It would create a bit of a difficulty to have part of a
building in Chaska and another part of the building in Chanhassen wouldn't it?
Or maybe not.
Glen Pauls: The parking lot is the only thing that would be affected by this.
It's just a corner of the parking lot that it affects. The only problem would
be for us is we would have to pay taxes to two different cities.
Todd Gerhardt: This would have it's own Parcel Identification Number.
Glen Pauls: I guess from what I heard from Chaska, they didn't really mind that
much if you left it in Chanhassen. It didn't really bother them either way. Is
that what you got out of it? I guess they never said definitely. 1
Todd Gerhardt: Bill brings up a good concern is that can an economic
development district boundary encompass another municipality go into another
municipality?
Don Ashworth: I think that Chaska would look to trying to annex the property.
One of the things I did on this, cost benefit sheet in the back. '
Councilman Johnson: Oh that's yours?
Don Ashworth: That's mine. The Mayor shared this document with me that they 11
use at NSP. But I'm gone through same of the property tax implications and I've
made the assumption in here that the parcel would go over to Chaska. In either
case, whether it stayed in Chanhassen or Chaska, the yearly taxes would be I
3
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
$288.00 and that was from the Assessor's Office. The benefits, whether Chaska
or Chanhassen, to the County would be an additional $90.00 per year. From the
school, $264.00 so we'd see net property tax savings for Chanhassen people of
$354.00 but I think the biggest costs are the costs associated with maintaining
82nd Street. If that roadway or if the parcel is in Chaska, Chaska would become
responsible for maintenance of that entire roadway. I'm estimating right now
that our cost to maintain that half mile is $3,500.00 per year. So all of the
its you see on that right hand side or under annual benefits are all reduced
costs or gain to the City of Chanhassen through this potential transaction.
' Councilman Boyt: What does a 3 to 4 something or other?
Don Ashworth: That represents reduced costs. What I'm saying there is right
' now that facility is used for off season storage and according to Mike and
Jerry, we would send 3 to 4 men for 3 days, twice a year, and during that time
frame we have 9 trucks so they take sanders off and stored. Plows off and
stored. 5 pick-ups. Plows off, stored. Grader_- V-plow removed and stored.
' That work takes about 3 to 4 days. We do that twice a year.
Councilman Johnson: You still do that in a different place.
Don Ashworth: That's correct but this calculation only takes into account the
additional hour that's taking place out there.
Councilman Johnson: The additional hour to drive out there?
Don Ashworth: The additional time required to go out there.
Mayor Chmiel: Drive there and drive back?
Don Ashworth: Right.
Councilman Boyt: If we take 4 people and we send them down there for 6 days, it
costs us $3,000.00?
' Councilman Johnson: For 24 man hours?
Don Ashworth: Twice a year.
Councilman Johnson: 3 days and you're saying it's only 1 hour extra per man.
' Mayor Chmiel: 3 or 4 men. What do they make per hour?
' Don Ashworth: Okay.
Councilman Johnson: I would like a job. If for 24 man hours you spend
$3,000.00, I'd put my application in. That's a little over $6,000.00 a week.
IICouncilwoman Dirtier: Don, I'll do it.
Mayor Chmiel: I think what you did was take the, taking them off the equipment
and putting them back on which probably should not have been in there.
Don Ashworth: But this was from.

En
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
Mayor Chmiel: Whether they would be there or would have it done at pub c li
works.
Councilman Johnson: If it's 24 man days.
Don Ashworth: Actually what I did was I multiplied 4 x 3 x 2 x 16 which would
be roughly $12.00 to $14.00 per hour and with overhead, you would have an
average of $16.00 per hour. But you're right. That's the total cost regardless
of where you do it.
Councilman Johnson: I think you want 8 in there also for 8 hours?
Don Ashworth: Oh, you've got an 8 in there for 8 hours a day. So you take 4 x
3 x 2 x 8 x 16.
Councilman Johnson: That works out to about $384.00. Instead of $3,000.00 it'is
$384.00. II
Councilman Workman: I don't know if that's the issue here.
Councilman Johnson: When we got to the bottom, $9,000.00 isn't that much of a
savings. Still trying to figure it out huh?
Councilman Boyt: Well the advantage of that is if your costs of the move are ,
$8,500.00-$8,600.00 and your benefits are $9,000.00, well then that would tell
you to make the move. But in fact our benefits are not $9,000.00 apparently so
maybe out costs do exceed the benfits. Although same of the benefits might be a
little hard to measure. It might be an interesting discussion as to how we
got...
Councilman Johnson: What's this $2,000.00 down here? Regular maintenance.
Maintenance on the building?
Don Ashworth: No. Regular maintenance involves, Mike tells me we have a light ,
boom truck out there we use to replace the lights. Anytime you have like one of
the signals is out. He estimates that that's 5 times per month. This one here
really should be just the 1 additional hour instead of going from the
maintenance building to have to go out to TH 41 and TH 5 so let's try that. 5 x
10 is 50 x 40 is $2,000.00. That number is correct. I still think that other
one is higher. I'm still trying to figure out how to do it because you can't
take 3 to 4 men, if they're on the same site and doing that work it's a lot
different than 3 to 4 men for 3 days where they have to take and go out to a
remote site to do that same work. I will admit that there is something wrong
with my calculations.
Councilman Johnson: You see one thing you could do at this garage is have
somebody else be doing. You could drop the truck off so people could go
someplace else. All the mechanic, in his spare time does it or something.
Mayor Chmiel: 96 hours and 96 hours would make that 192 hours is what you're
saying per year.

City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
Don Ashworth: On that one there? Like I said, I got that from Mike and as
we're going through it, I will admit that that should represent the full cost
but on the other side, it should be higher because you are doing it at one site i
' so maybe's it, instead of having the 8 hour days, maybe they should be you know,
1 or 2 instead of multiplying them by 8.
Mayor C rtiel: You come out pretty close. $3,072.00 is what you come up with.
Don Ashworth: Yeah, I think it is and this is at the reduced number of hours.
ICouncilman Boyt: What we're back to is, so you are saying that it costs
$3,000.00 to go out and take the plows off and put the plows back on those
trucks? That's $3,000.00 above and beyond what it would cost us to do it if
IIthey were in one central location.
Don Ashworth: That still seems high but the Mayor just verified it.
IIMayor Ciriiel: I just came up with the same total number that he has here.
II Councilman Johnson: But did you say 3 men 8 hours a day?
Mayor C hmiel: 3 men 8 hours a day.
' Councilwoman Dimler: Each one of us probably has an opinion on whether that
number is ridiculous or right.
I Councilman Boyt: It's kind of important. If the benefits outweight the costs,
this deal looks attractive in spite of the lower offer. If the benefits don't
outweigh the costs...
1 Councilman Johnson: The costs go up with the lower offer though.
Councilwoman Dimler: It takes 4 men to go out there and clean that road?
IICouncilman Boyt: This is a cost of $130,000.00 over 15 years. That's an
$8,600.00 cost.
IDon Ashworth: Another factor there is I've used 15 years. You put a cinder
building up like that, it's going to last longer. At a minimum you'd have a
mortgage for 30 years.
ICouncilman Boyt: Can you produce at sane point the information to substantiate
that this is still in the City's best financial interest to accept the existing
offer that's, what is it, $25,000.00 less than the first offer? Are you saying
that economically it's in the City's best interest to accept this offer?
II Don Ashworth: I'm not sure as to the motivation in the withdrawal of the offer.
I think that we as a group should, if we're going to consider this, that
potentially myself, the Mayor be authorized to at least get the offer that was
on the table from before back.
Councilman Boyt: How are you going to do that? I mean I don't expect you to
reveal all your negotiating strategy if you have one but I mean the gentleman
was here. He said very clearly this is my offer a week ago. He's now cane back
6
ANL
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
and said, now this is my offer and it doesn't look the same to me. You can have
{ my vote if you can get it at $100,000.00. As I said a week ago, this is a deal
we ought to make. At $75,000.00 I'm not so sure that that still holds true.
Councilwoman Dimler: Do you want sane discussion on it?
Mayor Qriiel: Yes, I'd like to open it up for discussion. One of the things L.
keep coming back to is looking at these cost benefits comparisons to what we're"
costing per square foot. Talking with different contractors, we're looking at
about a 5,000 square foot building at $23.00 per square foot and that would
provide us with a cinder block building, openers on the door, insulation in that
building, foundations with grid on slab.
Councilman Johnson: Floor drainage.
Mayor Qriiel: And floor drainage and a few lights. Cost on that would just be
alone anywhere from $115,000.00 on up. If you take 5,000 square feet times t
$23.00 you'll came up with $115,000.00. I
Councilwoman Dialer: I have a few comments too.
Mayor Qmiel: Not yet. Just a second. at I see it is this is still going to '
cost the City extra dollars. It's going to cost the entirety of the city some
more money. My concerns are, what we have there presently is servicing us
properly. It would be nice to consolidate to bring it back down to the public
works area but I don't think we should have to have the City's people pay for
those additional costs. It's just my feelings as I look at it right now.
Councilwoman Dimler: I guess I would like to add to that, on this agreement
here that's dated 10-2-89 that the buyer wants to have the sale from the Council
by 10-6-89 and the equipment has to be, around the building most be removed by
10-10-89. I just think that's really too soon. We don't have anywhere to go
with it and again the additional costs in getting a facility. Also, the buyer
had indicated at an earlier meeting that if there's any soil contamination, that
Chanhassen would be responsible to clean it up and I'd just hate to see us spend
the whole $60,000.00 on cleaning it up possibly.
Councilman Johnson: Of course if there is any, we're responsible to clean it up
anyway.
Cbuncilwcznan Dimler: That's true but then you've got to, you don't want to
spend the whole $60,000.00.
Councilman Johnson: Don? Do we have an underground tank or anything at that
place? Fuel? '
Don Ashworth: It was removed several years ago.
Councilman Johnson: Was it underground or above ground?
Don Ashworth: I know we had an above ground but did we also have an
underground?
Mayor Qmiel: Was that one diked with the above ground at the time?
7
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
Todd Gerhardt: I think that was before. I know there was an underground that
was taken out or is still existing. I just know there was one out there.
Councilman Johnson: One or the other.
Don Ashworth: I'm sure that it was removed. The overhead was the gasoline and `•'•'
the underground I think was for heating. Like kerosene fuel oil.
Todd Gerhardt: I'd like to, if I could, make one comment that Mr. Pokorney had
' also informed me that Mr. Pauls is intending to access onto West 82nd Street.
Their facility with an estimated 100 employees and that would stay a gravel base
as the existing West 82nd is right now. If they were to come in and make the
improvements on that road, MnDot would require that the buildings be taken out
of there.
Councilman Johnson: Just for right-of-way access?
yy
Todd Gerhardt: Easements, right-of-way and just the amount of grading and
cutting in that area makes that site almost unaccessible.
' Councilman Workman: They can't really improve that road unless we decide. Do
we own both sides of that road?
' Don Ashworth: Yes. We own both sides of that section. That's why are
maintenance costs are higher.
' Glen Pauls: Could I add something here?
Mayor Chmiel: Yes.
Glen Pauls: With that fuel contamination, Dave Pokorney was saying that it's
possible from what experience he's had that if we cut out the 14 feet we have to
cut there, if we get the lot, that we could possibly take care of all that on
site without having to have any additional expenses so you might be able to
avoid hauling away contaminated ground. I guess what they do with this ground,
from what he was saying, is just spread it on the surface. We're doing enough
dirt work there that we could do that right on site.
Councilwoman Dialer: Well that sounds real good but we'd have to have assurance
of that.
IIGlen Pauls: Yeah, possibly.
II Councilman Johnson: Is there any reason to believe there's contamination at
that site?
' Don Ashworth: In fact, I would say just the opposite. If there would have been
anything when they dug up the tanks and what not, we would have had it reported
at that point in time.
Councilman Johnson: You don't just spread it out and put grass seed on it.
You've got to go in and plow it a couple times a year for a while until all the
fuels go out of it. It's not like you just...
8
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989 11
1
Glen Pauls: It's got to be turned?
Councilman Johnson: Yeah, it's got to be turned a couple times. You don't just
lay it out.
Councilwoman Dialer: See and I think they want to have their parking lot there. '
Councilman Johnson: They could put it in the back.
Glen Pauls: We could put it in the back part. It would have to be looked into.
Councilman Boyt: As I understand it, the building we have there is 30 years
old? At least. I thought I read 30 years somewhere.
Don Ashworth: 30 years is the number I used for amortizing the new building.
I'm sure those buildings were there at the time the merger, township and city.
Councilman Boyt: I guess the better question is, what's the life expectancy of
those buildings for what we're using than for? When are we going to have to
start putting sane money in maintaining those buildings? Seriously.
Don Ashworth: That should have been one of the numbers that should have gone in
this form. Unfortunately I was unable to get. I passed along to Mike and he
was going to try to get it from Jerry and Jerry- didn't get back. I'm sure that
each year we have a certain amount of vandalise that occurs out on that site
just because people think there's something in there and it's not well secured.
- On the other side, I'm sure in repairing that vandalise, we put very little
money into it. Go back out, they put a lock back on and hinges and a door and
that type of thing. '
Councilman Boyt: In our other public works building, is there room there to
build a 5,000 square foot expansion?
Don Ashworth: Yes.
Councilman Boyt: So we don't have to buy land? What we have to do is provide a '
building.
Mayor Chmiel: And we already discussed that last time. 1
Councilman Boyt: Yeah. I guess I'm just getting clear on these. Has anybody
investigated whether or not Chaska would store our equipment for us?
Councilman Workman: Yes.
Cbuncilmman Boyt: What was their answer? '
Councilman Workman: Possibly down in Chaska.
Councilman Boyt: So they could very easily, Inman it's '
. ., possible that they
would agree to store that equipment for us?
Todd Gerhardt: For temporary. ,
9
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
Councilman Boyt: Right. Until we get our building built.
' Mayor Chmiel: Open storage?
Todd Gerhardt: Closed.
ICouncilman Boyt: There seems to be some possibility that maybe the offer could
be expanded. I'd eventually like to see a motion that this be approved
contingent upon whoever the negotiating party is representing the City reaching
1 a better financial agreement with Mr. Pauls and the City of Chaska. However
they can work that out between them.
Don Ashworth: Ideally from a City standapoint, since they're going to be doing
major grading associated with TH 41 and 82nd Street, to have the site graded
which means buildings removed at that point in time and the grading done by the
City in 1990 allowing us to keep materials on the site through the end of this
I year and into 1990 would be the best alternative. As I understand it, that was
not a very warmly received suggestion. Correct?
I Glen Pauls: We wanted to have the lot graded by, well they are grading now...
The idea was to get it graded in the fall so we could get a good compaction...
because we've got bad floors in our building right now. We just don't want to
1 get into that again. It's not worth it.
Don Ashworth: But I mean this would be a parking area right?
IGlen Pauls: That part there yeah. The trouble is, we're...so what's coming off
of there is planning to fill other areas. We have to decide now what the
grade's going to be. Do we let it go? We have to leave it a little bit lower
' if we don't your lot, you know grade around it. We'd have to go maybe another 6
inches the entire lot higher. We have to kind of come up with a final grade.
Either that or leave a big pit somewhere. Then if we don't ever get your lot,
II we're stuck with a big pit. So that's why we have to decide now. They were
supposed to be grading last week. I don't know they had some problems.
Councilman Johnson: They're doing something out there. I drove by this
Ievening.
Mayor Qrmiel: Any other discussion?
ICouncilman Workman: I don't know. I'm a little nervous about this. We met
last week for really no reason. Only to find out that, I don't know. I suspect
Ithat from the meeting we had last week that even if we had approved what we
approved last week, we probably wouldn't have had $100,000.00 either. This
purchase agreement here says something about $60,000.00. It doesn't say
anything about Chaska's $15,000.00. If I was nervous about selling it at
I $100,000.00, I sure am now at $60,000.00. I think I was looking at sane of
these costs of driving out there. Those are some hidden costs that I don't know
that we're going to be able to recognize too well. I don't know. Mr. Pauls
IIstated at his meeting that he wouldn't mind this thing sitting in front of his 4
million dollar project and I think it's going to be pretty close to the front
door of it and he didn't mind if his couple hundred employees were using a
gravel road and then proceeded to reduce his offer by $25,000.00. I don't know.
10
City Council Meeting - October 2; 1989 1
I think we're going to have a building that's going to be expensive no matter
which way you look at it and we're going to have to cane up with an awful lot of
money to put one up. I know in these frugal times what the people of Chanhassen
are telling me. Possibly increased taxes with school referendums, etc. and
everything else holding the line and everything else, I do not feel comfortable.
Mayor Chmiel: Jay? ,
Councilman Johnson: Can I just say ditto?
Councilman Boyt: So what you're saying is, if the offer was at $100,000.00, if ,
it was back to that, that for $15,000.00 you wouldn't want to build a brand new
public works building next to our existing one? '
Councilman Workman: If it was back at $100,000.00?
Councilman Boyt: I would propose that we make a motion that we accept this
offer if it can be negotiated at that rate.
Councilwoman Dimler: Then he'd have to cane with another offer and I think he'd
have to initiate that.
Councilman Boyt: Let me just make the motion that we would accept it if he or
he and Chaska came up with that offer? '
Councilman Johnson: In other words, you're counter-offering?
Councilwoman Dimler: We would look at it. 1
Councilman Johnson: So you're saying we would accept a counter-offer? ,
Councilwoman Dimler: But we've already been through that Bill.
Mayor Chmiel: The counter-offer of $100,000.00 is what he's basically saying. '
Councilwoman Dimler: We've already been through that.
Mayor Chmiel: Okay, but if that motion were to go through, the decision would '
not have to be made at this particular time either. A counter-offer...
Councilwoman Dimler: But to make it real clear, we most reject the one that '
he's giving us.
Mayor Chmiel: Well that's true. I agree. '
Cbuncilwoman Dimler: And then encourage him to put another offer on the table
at $100,000.00. '
Councilman Boyt: Everybody's fighting, well Mr. Pauls anyway and our deal, are
fighting time.
Mayor Chmiel: We realize that Bill.
11 '
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
1 Councilman Boyt: I think if you like an offer of $100,000.00 total, then it
would sure same everybody a lot of time if we went ahead and accepted that offer
contingent upon the storage of the equipment until we can get our building built
but the basic dollar thing is really a chance to turn that piece of property
into an opportunity for the City to come up with a better situation overall.
But to miss that opportunity.
' Councilman Johnson: Basically what you're saying is to reject the $60,000.00
offer, authorize Don to accept an offer at the rate of $100,000.00?
ICouncilman Boyt: That's right.
Don Ashworth: If that were to be considered, I would suggest a couple of adds
I to that. Those would be, that it would also be contingent on us negotiating
with Chaska temporary storage at no cost to the City for 1989 or late 1990.
Additionally, if there would be an eventual annexation, that the property could
not be in a tax increment district therefore assuring the taxes off of the site
would go to the County and school.
Councilman Johnson: Could they improve the road without that being in a tax
IIincrement district?
Don Ashworth: Yes.
' Councilman Boyt: But Don, if we're talking, I don't know exactly how the
assessment on this property would work but if it's a parking lot, it's not going
Ito be assessed at that tremendous amount of money.
Don Ashworth: $30,000.00.
I Councilman Boyt: If it would allow the City of Chaska to increase their off or
their ability to underwrite this to same extent, it seams like to me that it
would be money well spent so I would like to not put other conditions on that if
' we can avoid it other than the one, we certainly have to have someplace inside
to store our trucks and plows and such.
II Mayor Chmiel: What we should do then is look for a motion to reject the
$60,000.00.
Councilman Workman: So moved.
IICouncilwoman Dimler: Second.
II Mayor Chmiel: It's been moved and seconded to reject the $60,000.00 offer for
purchase agreement from Nordic Track Incorporation to the City of Chanhassen.
Then if we could put it back on the table to make a recommendation or...
Councilwoman Dimler: Can we vote on that first and then make a recommendation?
Mayor Ctmiel: Yes but before we get into that, I just want to make sure we have
it all covered. To then request the initial $100,000.00 offer for that
property. Okay, does everyone understand that?
Councilwoman Dimler: With the understanding that we can find same more...
12
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
Mayor Chniel: Yes, we have to get final approval on this and we have a motion
and a second now.
Councilman Boyt: So really we're doing this in two parts. The second part is
going to be accepting $100,000.00 offer with?
Mayor Qmiel: Correct. '
Councilman Workman moved, Councilwoman Dimler seconded to reject the offer of
$60,000.00 from Nordic Track for the property located at the southwest corner of
TH 41 and 82nd Street. All voted in favor and the motion carried.
Councilman Johnson: I move that we authorize Don to negotiate and accept on the
behalf of the Council an offer of $100,000.00 for the timing purpose of this t
- rather than wait a week. y I
Councilman Boyt: And storage.
Councilman Johnson: And the condition that Chaska, at no cost to the City of
Chanhassen, provide storage until our building is completed in 1990. What
other?
Don Ashworth: That's it.
Mayor Chmiel: Without any additional contingencies? '
Councilman Johnson: Yeah.
Councilman Workman: Second. '
Councilman Johnson moved, Councilman Workman seconded to authorize the City
Manager to accept an offer of $100,000.00 for the property located in the
southwest corner of TH 41 and 82nd Street contingent on the City of Chaska, at
no cost to the City of Chanhassen, provide storage until the new public works
building is completed in 1990. All voted in favor and the motion carried.
AUTHORIZE EXTENSION OF AMENDED CURBSIDE RECYCLING CONTRACT.
Paul Krauss: Cn August 14th the Council approved an increase in the household
charge for the recycling contract. Approval was granted through October with a
30 day cancellation period incorporated. e're recommending that the City
Council act either to extend or cancel the contract as soon as possible so we
can attempt to arrange for service until the end of the year if you so wish. We
are recarnmending that the Council extend the contract until the end of December.
The Recycling Commission is preparing a draft requesting proposals on the
contract that's going to be sent out in the very near future that gives some
options for the caning year. With that again we are recommending that the
contract be extended to the end of the year.
13
City Council Meeting - October 2, 1989
Mayor Chmiel: Through December? Irbre s pecifically, what the
legislation that
has just been passed.
' Don Ashworth: I don't know if it's signed yet.
II Mayor Chmiel: Well it's there. All recycling is to be done and that will be
mandatory.
II Councilman Boyt: What part of it's mandatory?
Mayor Chmiel: The recycling.
ICouncilman Johnson: Curbside collection.
Mayor Chmiel: Curbside recycling.
IICouncilman Johnson: In what 1992 for this city, it will be mandatory?
Mayor Chmiel: No, 1991.
ICouncilman Boyt: That's controlled by the County or the City?
' Mayor Chmiel: That is controlled by the State mandating those requirements to
the County for the County to deal with them or to make sure that the cities do
that.
I Councilman Johnson: Any town in excess of 5,000 people in the metropolitan area
has to have curbside recycling by 1991.
IICouncilman Boyt: Handled by the County right?
Councilman Johnson: No. Any town must have it. The money goes to the County.
IIPaul Krauss: If I could add something too. That the bill also includes a
funding source for part of that which is a 6% tax on trash hauling. We called
I the County today to see if they had any idea about what kind of revenues that
might generate and if so, what we might expect to have out of that. They really
didn't have any information to give us but I...that just on household trash
alone it probably generates $40,000.00 in Chanhassen.
Councilman Boyt: That's not enough.
Councilman Workman: Where's that $40,000.00 going to really came from though?
Mayor Chmiel: Everybody that's paying their.
IIPaul Krauss: It's a 6% tax on trash hauling fee.
Councilman Workman: But where are the trash haulers going to get that?
1 Mayor Chmiel: The trash haulers will be charging their clients. You bet.
You're the guy. Everybody sitting in this roam that has garbage.

Date Submitted to Commission 1
SUBJ: Approve Plans and Specifications for
Public Works Auxiliary Building Foundation Date Submitted to Cooed
Project No. 89-23 rlI V- 1
In light of the City ' s recent sale of the Public Works auxiliary 1
structures located on West 82nd Street at Trunk Highway 41, we
are interested in proceeding as rapidly as possible with the
construction of the replacement storage facility to be located at
the main Public Works complex on Park Road. The proposed 1
building will be a 60-foot by 80-foot cold storage facility with
two bays. The total design package is currently being prepared
in by EOS Architects. In the interest of time, we are attempting to 1
at least have the foundation work completed this fall such that
o the rest of the building can be constructed, weather permitting,
over the winter season or , as a minimum, in early spring. 111
2 ` The attached plan sheets represent only the foundation element of
the proposed building. Footing excavation will be cone by Public
Works personnel. It is therefore recommended that the attached II
construction plans be approved by the City Council. It is esti-
mated that the construction cost for this foundation will be less
than $15 ,000 . Staff will therefore solicit quotes from 1
appropriate local contractors to complete this phase :of the
construction.
Attachment: Foundation plan sheets. 1
