BOX 147 • CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 (612) 937-1900 II MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council IIFROM: Don Ashworth, City Manager IDATE: December 12, 1988 SUBJ: Joint Powers Agreement, Southwest Communities Coalition IThe attached contract between Carver County and the City of Chanhassen is similar to that entered into for 1988 . A new II contract is needed for 1989 . I believe the contract is self- explanatory, i .e. communities in the southwest area have banded together to employ Mr. Boland to lobby in our behalf. The pri- I mary work has been in the area of the Metropolitan Council ' s Development Framework Plan. Chanhassen acts as the lead agency in that we direct the work of Mr. Boland and seek reimbursement of member cities for such billed work. The joint powers I agreement formalizes the process with Carver County in that it recognizes that Carver County must reimburse Chanhassen for the work we bill them for. Most of the other jurisdictions within I the southwest area do not require the same level of formalization- and most are bound solely on the basis of a letter from the chief administrative officer stating their intent to belong and to pay costs. IIApproval of the attached joint powers agreement for the Southwest Communities Coalition lobbying efforts is recommended.

BOX 147 • CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 (612) 937-1900 MEMORANDUM 1 TO: Housing and Redevelopment Authority FROM: Don Ashworth, City Manager IIDATE: January 3 , 1989 1 SUBJ: Loren Anderson Option/Purchase Agreement I During the course of the past two years the HRA has seen innu- merable versions of purchase agreements between Loren Anderson (Automotive Unlimited) and the HRA. In fact, we have a signed purchase agreement with Mr. Anderson which dates back approxima- I tely six to nine months ago. If the HRA will recall, it was the opinion of the City Attorney not to have the HRA execute that document as such would potentially bind the HRA to rectify pollu- Ition problems on the property. The attached copy of the purchase agreement is materially same as seen by the HRA nine months ago. The only difference is that Isuch is accompanied by an "option agreement" which provides to us the option of whether we wish to execute the purchase agreement in the future. If we would fail to exercise that option, monies I paid as a part of the option agreement would be lost. The City - Attorney has verified that by entering into the option agreement the City is not binding itself to payment of pollution correc- ttions . As the attached documents are the same as have been previously approved by the HRA, this office will have the Chairman and 1 myself execute the option agreement during the early part of this next week. The purchase agreement will be kept on file until such date as the PCA has agreed to a remedial action plan for the I property. I will place both of these items on to the January 19th agenda to confirm that this office has acted properly in having the Chairman and myself execute the option agreement. As II a side note, the City Attorney has continued to work with PCA in an effort to seek their agreement to a remedial action plan. An initial plan (copy attached) was submitted to PCA approximately two weeks ago. The PCA appears to be willing to agree to the I remedial action plan dependent upon receiving information on two or three items that they did not feel were properly addressed in the Dahl report. Again, the City Attorney is working with PCA I 1 Housing and Redevelopment Authority January 3 , 1989 Page 2 and Dahl and Associates to obtain these final pieces of infor- mation. Once the plan has been approved by PCA, Mr. Anderson would be permitted to seek reimbursement of his costs in pre- paring the remedial action plan as well as costs associated with site clean up. Please note that the option agreement calls for the payment to Mr. Anderson to be in the name of both Anderson and Dahl and Associates - thus assuring that the monies will be used for clean-up purposes .

We continue to monitor the progress and everything appears to be moving along smoothly. Rosemount Engineering: Ron stated that Rosemount has received a foundation permit and he believes they have paid for the SAC charge in 1988, resulting in substantial savings . Handicapped Sign/Town Square: The handicapped sign is once again in place which hopefully will lay to rest a persistent problem. Sprinkler Systems: Mark Littfin clarified what the West Metro Fire Marshal' s Association is introducing to the State Legislature about licensing sprinkler companies . He indicated that they will be wrapping up the legislation on this issue hope- fully by Tuesday of this week. Mark also indicated that the pro- cess whereby a permit to install a fire alarm is being looked at. This will be done through local requirements . ' HSZ Site: Larry Brown indicated that the fire hydrant at the corner of West 64th Street and TH 41 is inoperative. Mark Littfin asked that the engineering department cover it with a plastic bag or somehow secure it to indicate that it is not operable. Certificates of Occupancy, Town Square: Apparently all of the problems have been worked out with Town Square regarding certificates of occupancies . This would include the plumbing problems that were previously experienced at Olson' s bakery. NEW BUSINESS Westside Baptist Church: This was the big topic of the meeting and centered around the lack of a certificate of occupancy for Westside Baptist. It was pointed out during the meeting that on December 12, 1988 , Pastor Pike of Westside Baptist presented a problem to the City Council concerning moving his church into the industrial office park area. The City Council granted a 90 day temporary conditional use permit for Pastor Pike to move his Public Safety Department Meeting January 9, 1989 1 Page 2 church to that area. On December 19, 1988 , I sent a letter to Pastor Pike indicating that the City Council had not granted a certificate of occupancy and he was not to occupy the premises until all code requirements were met. Steve Kirchman indicated that they in fact moved in on December 22, 1988 . Steve had found this information out from Carl at Fitness Master who had given the Westside people a key to get in. Numerous issues were discussed concerning Westside Baptist and options to remedy some of the issues . A suggestion was made that members of the Public Safety Department help Pastor Pike on their own time on a Saturday to bring the building up to code. This was discussed in length and the final outcome was that it was probably not a good idea for the following reasons : 1 ) liability issues and 2) we were not sure exactly what we would be saving Pastor Pike since he is purchasing all the material and doing all the work himself anyway. The final concensus was that Pastor Pike is no different than anyone else in the City and must abide by the state law. Whatever the intent of the City Council was , they cannot nor can anybody, permit anybody to break state law. A continued dialogue will be kept open between public safety and Pastor Pike in working toward an agreeable solution. A recent memo from Scott Harr to Jim Chaffee requested that I seek support of the City Council in authorizing us to enforce all applicable codes to this property and to not permit occupancy until the necesssary correc- tions are made and inspection completed. This statement was discussed and some felt it necessary not to seek City Council approval to enforce the law since that is what we were employed to do in the first place. The final concensus was that Pastor Pike and Westside Baptist had to abide by state law and could not occupy the premises until such time as they receive a certificate-: ' of occupancy. Positive Strokes , 1989: Scott Harr went over his recommendation to make 1989 a positive year. The last year, 1988, seemed to dwell on the negatives and consequently we are making a pledge to make 1989 a very positive and enjoyable year for everyone we come in contact with. Numerous ways were discussed in which this can be done, i .e. recognition for jobs on a regular basis, on a quar- terly basis, etc. This would include all aspects of the Public Safety Department, Public Safety Commission, Deputies, and the Fire Department. I/ Inspections When No One Home: Carl Barke brought up the problem of being called to an inspection, arriving, and no one is home. He states that a few times in the past, people have called for inspection indicating that they will leave the door open. Carl was interested to know the City' s policy on doing an inspection ' when no one was home. As can be expected, Crime Prevention Officer Deb Rand took exception to anyone leaving their house open for any kind of inspection. Options were discussed whereby the homeowner could hide a key on the premises or drop a key off , Public Safety Department Meeting January 9, 1989 Page 3 at City Hall. Since no general concensus could be found, Scott Harr was directed to look into the matter and find out liability concerns for the City. Scott will then direct a memo to Jim and he will come up with a policy concerning this problem. Seminary: The seminary is continuing to be monitored by Scott ' Harr. The checks of the old barrels have shown them to be full of old paint sludge and they are in the process of breaking up old pipes in the basement of the house to be burned. Street Signs/House Numbers: Mark Littfin brought up a concern that the Fire Department has concerning street signs in the new ' developments , or to be exact, the lack of street signs . The question was "Can street signs be placed in the middle of the winter?" and according to Jerry Schlenk they can. He also asked the status of house number campaign. Scott Harr indicated that to date he has received no complaints or advisories on buildings lacking house numbers . ' 1989 Goals: I have received all of the 1989 goals per my request and I will be meeting with each member of the Public Safety Department to discuss these goals . Martin Luther King Day: Monday, January 16th will be Martin Luther King Day. City Hall not officially be open; however, everyone is scheduled to work. The doors will be locked, the 11 phones will be off, and it will be used generally as a clean-up office and paperwork day. ' Next Meeting: The next meeting will be on Martin Luther King Day, January 16 , 1989 at 8 : 30 a.m. Happy Martin Luther King, Jr. Day! I Jim Chatfee Public Safety Director 11 I I I ' MINUTES PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT MEETING JANUARY 16 , 1989 ' Present: Jim Chaffee Scott Harr Steve Kirchman Larry Brown Carl Barke Ron Julkowski Deb Rand Mark Littfin Absent: Dale Gregory Bob Zydowsky OLD BUSINESS Sprinkler Systems: Mark Littfin will be getting me the infor- mation on sprinkler systems , the fee structure, etc. by this afternoon so that we may present it to the Council on January 23 , 1989. Westside Baptist Church: The discussion centered around the requirements imposed upon the Westside Baptist Church at their new location in the industrial park. We discussed whether the building as it is used is considered an E3 or a B2 occupancy. After discussing this question at some length we decided that we would call it a B2 occupancy. The question mainly was regarding the nursery that is set up to be used during church services . Fire Inspector Mark Littfin stated that he had the information ' from the State that as long as the parents are dropping their children off and remaining in the building not to exceed three hours , it would be considered a nursery. It would not have to meet the requirements . However, the remaining requirements to meet life and safety and health code will have to be met. Ron Julkowski tried to get in on Friday to see if the conditions laid down had been met prior to their holding church services on Sunday. When Ron arrived, the building was locked and he could not gain entry. Jim Chaffee had received a call from Pastor Pike on Friday stating that they had purchased the exit signs and they were electrical; however, they did not have the battery backup capability at this time. He said that they would have to purchase the batteries and they would do so. He also stated that 11 they would have the panic hardware installed by Saturday after- noon. At this writing, we do not know if the requirements have been met. It was a concensus from the group that if by Friday afternoon this week, January 20 , 1989, Westside Baptist is not up to code, then we will seek a court injunction to prevent them from holding services there. NEW BUSINESS ' Snow Forts: Scott Harr suggested that we keep our eyes open for snow forts close to the roadway. He had been receiving complaints about kids sliding and playing in the snow forts real close to the roadway making it hazardous for themselves and for drivers . MINUTES , PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT MEETING JANUARY 16 , 1989 Page 2 Crime Prevention Film: Scott Harr stated that he had purchased a $9 .50 crime prevention film over the weekend and that it should be coming in the mail shortly. The price of $9 .50 was well worth the amount of information contained on the film. Dinner Theatre: Scott Harr stated that the Dinner Theatre is now using the fill that they had placed over our easements as a turn- around. Scott and Larry will be looking into this . New Addition: Jim Chaffee requested that all public safety per- sonnel provide him with information by Friday for the furniture needed to equip their new offices in the new addition. This included bookshelves , bulletin boards, filing cabinets, staplers, tape dispensers, chairs , etc. Chan Vet: Deb Rand brought up the unpleasant concept of euthana- sia. She stated that neither she nor the Chan Vet like to eutha- nize dogs and cats and the discussion centered around placing an article in the paper each time we end up impounding a dog or a cat. This may necessitate extending the impound time from 5 days to 7 days (business days) and might incur additional costs . Deb will be working with Scott Harr on this issue. Next Meeting: The next meeting will be on Monday, January 23 , 1989.

' The Southwest Metro Transit Commission at its meeting on December 29, 1988, dicussed rider comments and concerns for transit service received in response to this change. In as much as this change was recently implemented, (December 12, 1988) the Transit Commission directed the administrator to gather additional information, such as the timing of this route, over the next several weeks. This information will provide an opportunity for Southwest Metro to gain operating experience so that we can adequately address the issues and demand for service from this ' area.

As you are aware, the letter of credit for the First Addition was allowed to expire and 1 was picked up by you on January 6, 1989 . Concerning the Second Addition, contrary to indications from your consultant and yourselves, the improvements have not been completed. I acknowledge the fact the second barricade installa tion was postponed at my direction; however, other items such as installation of the wear course and final restoration work remains to be completed in the spring. Concerning the installation of the second barricade, the City 1 transmitted to you title information in December which verified that access easements remained in force for the existing property owners who had utilized Teton Lane for access. It was because these easements had not been released that the installation of the final barricade on Teton Lane was postponed. As you are aware, a condition of approval for the Curry Farms Second Addition required the barricading of Teton Lane to prohibit traf- fic from utilizing this as a through street. It is therefore my position that until the access easements from the existing property owners have been released and the second 1 barricade installed on Teton Lane that no reduction of the letter of credit will be considered for the Second Addition. I trust you - can appreciate the importance of resolving this in a timely fashion and I would appreciate your immediate attention to this matter.

It would appear that a new resident at 1551 Lyman Boulevard was con- cerned about the snowmobile trail that traverses in front of their property along the roadway. The resident indicated to me that a few weeks ago while they were pulling out of their driveway they almost collided with a snowmobile that was going extremely fast along the trail and over their driveway. The resident thought that this was a dangerous situation and has requested through my office that we put stop signs up at her driveway so that the snowmobilers would have to stop. I would concur with her request and suggest that it probably ' would be nice to have stop signs there. Please keep in mind that they are not complaining about the snowmobile trail, but from a safety standpoint they would like to see stop signs up. I would ' appreciate any assistance that you can provide regarding this matter. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions .

I would like to thank you for your patience in waiting for a response, as a detailed search of the applicable regulations 1 was necessary. As you are aware from the information that was sent to you on ' May 3, 1988, the City Council passed a resolution which designated the "No Parking" zone along Lake Lucy Road during the July 14 , 1986 Council meeting. This resolution is in accordance with Minnesota State Statute §160 . 263 , Subdivision 1 which states 1 "As used in this section, ' Bicycle Lane' means that portion of a roadway set aside by the governing body of a political sub- division having jurisdiction over the roadway for the exclusive 1 use of bicycles or other vehicles propelled by human power and so" designated by appropriate signs and markings . . . " This statute states that bicycle lanes have the exclusive use of ' the designated bicycle lane which requires the prohibition of parking within this area. 1 In response to your additional question of the ability of a muni- cipality to designate a two-way bicycle lane on one side of a roadway, I quote the following Minnesota State Statute §169 . 222 , Subdivision 4 , Subsection A: "Every person operating a bicycle upon a roadway shall ride as close as practicable to the right- hand curb or edge of the roadway except under the following situations : 1 . When overtaking and passing another vehicle proceeding in the same direction. 2 . When preparing for a left turn at an intersection or into a private road or driveway. 1 1 1 Mr. Brian Tichy January 5 , 1989 Page 2 3 . When reasonably necessary to avoid conditions, including fixed or moving objects, vehicles , pedestrians, animals , sur- face hazards, or narrow width lanes, that make it safe to continue along the right-hand curb or edge. " I In short, this statute mandates that the bicycle lanes be designated such that the flow of the bicycle lane corresponds with the flow of motor vehicle traffic. I am in receipt of the letter sent to you by Scott Harr, Assistant Public Safety Director, which suggests that if incle- ment weather makes it impossible for you to get up your driveway, that you would call the Sheriff ' s Department at 448-2111 to advise them so that your vehicles are not tagged or towed. 1 I hope this addresses the information that you needed.

This press release is being sent to all metro area newspapers, and we expect it will appear on ' their next publication date. Because of the concentration of many regional distributors into a few powerful national distributors, the last two years has seen a decline ' in the profitability of our food service products until they are now being sold at a loss in order to remain competitive. We do not expect any improvement in this situation in the foreseeable future. ' On the other hand, we see opportunities for growth in our other product lines. The decision to leave the food service business will allow us to concentrate our efforts on these opportunities. However, ' it also results in a reduction in the workforce in all departments of our company. Some of this reduction has occurred through attrition, but most of it has been done through termination. This action involves the release of both factory and salaried people, and will ' undoubtedly have some negative impact on the economy of the community, as well as being very stressful for the departing employees and their families. We are employing a number of measures to minimize this ' impact: We are retaining a professional consulting organization to provide counselling in job interviewing, resume' preparation, job ' search techniques, and other skills designed to help find new jobs and maintain a positive attitude during this period of stress. - We have developed a list of area employers who may be hiring and are advising them of the availability of these well-trained and highly desirable people. - We are financing and facilitating the obtaining of unemployment compensation for these people while they seek other employment. ' - Future manpower additions by our company will be filled wherever possible by people from this group. These highly valued employees are leaving only because their jobs have been eliminated, and we anticipate in this time of high demand for qualified employees that the transition period between jobs will be short. Anything you and your associates can do to help find employment for these people, will, of course, be appreciated by all concerned. We have studied this situation for months, and only recently decided to take this action which we believe will, in the long run, benefit our employees, our company, and this community of which we are so proud to be a member. 1 Sincerely yours, RL-LCZAVEJ toy ol JAN 19 1989 Gedney Tutt'�: President CITY OF CHANhASSLN 11 M.

Chaska Community Center Report. 1 II COMMUNITY CENTER TASK FORCE MEETING MINUTES DECEMBER 21 , 1988 ' Members Present: Tom Akins , Jim Mady, Ursula Dimler, Brad Johnson, Colleen Klingelhutz , Bob Robinett, Bill Boyt and Bob Ostlund. Call to Order: The meeting was called to order at 7: 45 p.m. by Chairman Jim Mady. Debt Limitations - Community Center: Don Ashworth reviewed his memorandum of December 20 , 1988 . Issues presented at the last Task Force meeting generated discussion over differences between "legal debt capacity" versus "existing debt capacity" . The com- mittee had also asked what tax implications might be if the City exceeded existing debt standards. Various questions were raised; however, the report appeared to be generally understood. Committee member Bill Boyt suggested that the minutes reflect that the statistics within the report had been prepared by the City' s financial advisor, Andy Merry. Don Ashworth stated that Mr. Ostlund was present to respond to ' questions occurring at our last meeting regarding the school district' s interest in the community center proposal and poten- tial funding concepts. One of the funding concepts presented at the last meeting was the ability to use tax increment revenues as a part of the project. The possibility of this funding source has occurred as a result of the 1988 change in State law. Specifically, the legislature placed into Statute a section attempting to stop Housing and Redevelopment Authorities from gaining an undue "windfall" because of "excess levy referendums of school districts . " Specifically, property values existing within a tax increment district continue to be spread between County/City/school district. However, new values created as a result of new construction are channeled to the HRA who has sup- posedly calculated the proposed taxes from those new facilities and will only be capturing the amounts necessary to pay for the roads/sewers/structures demolished to carry out such redevelop- ment. As the mill rate charged against the new development is exactly the same as for all other properties within the com- munity, an excess levy referendum for school purposes hypotheti- cally produces a "windfall" for the local HRA. It was this loophole the legislature wished to fill and, again, established the language in the statutes stating that those windfall dollars would be calculated separated by the County Auditor' s Office and forwarded to the school district over and above the amounts levied by the school district for general school purposes [ therefore, now producing a windfall for the school district] . However, the legislature also made one exception - if a city wants that excess levy money, it can keep it. The change in state law will in all likelihood create a myriad of school district/city battles throughout the state. Recognizing this potential, the city and school started working several months ago trying to determine how best to address this issue , COMMUNITY CENTER TASK FORCE MINUTES DECEMBER 21 , 1988 Page 2 without creating potential battle lines . One of the concepts considered was the possibility of both the City and the school ' district agreeing that certain projects may benefit both the school and community, i .e. community center, gymnasium, etc. A new gymnasium or community center could be beneficial to both the City and school. The above statements had been made by Don Ashworth at the last meeting and, again, the members had requested that Mr. Ostlund be present to provide his thoughts on the subject. ' Mr. Ostlund stated that the school board was positive in its reaction to the proposed community center adjacent to the elemen- t tary school . That presentation was made prior to the time that the committee prepared the Lake Ann option and, accordingly, reaction to that proposal has not yet occurred. Secondarily, the board has only briefly reviewed the concept of using excess levy revenues ( tax increment windfall dollars) for joint City/school purposes . The concept has been presented and seems to be receiving very favorable review. Specifically, the City of Chaska has approached the school district with exactly that same proposal as it would relate to the construction of a community center in the City of Chaska. Although the discussions with Chanhassen has occurred for a longer period of time than in ' Chaska, it appears as though their proposal is moving more quickly and, as a result, it was the Chaska proposal which was reviewed by the school board. Again, that proposal appeared to ' receive a lot of positive interest with very few negatives being brought to the forefront. The Chaska proposal appears to be one of having the City release its tax increment dollars to the ' school district, having the City carrying out the construction of , the community center, and receiving a pledge from the school district to make payments back to the City equal to the amount distributed to the school by the County Auditor. Again, no ' votes were taken on the issue and significant legal/technical work will be required to be completed before a specific proposal can be voted upon. Again, the proposal did receive a favorable ' review and Chaska was encouraged to define such further. Mr . Ostlund did not know of any reason why a similar proposal would not be received well by the school board for Chanhassen and that all of the discussions to date between the school representatives ' and City staff have generally been along the same lines as that proposed by Chaska. ' Brad Johnson asked what amount of money may be generated from tax increment excess levies . The Manager responded that such would be approximately $1,500 ,000 which would equate to approximately $1,000 ,000 in construction dollars . The Manager noted that the dollar amount could be higher depending on the number of years i COMMUNITY CENTER TASK FORCE MEETING MINUTES DECEMBER 21, 1988 Page 3 being pledged. The Manager also noted that the December 20 , 1988 report regarding availability of construction dollars did not include the dollars which may be available from tax increment revenues. Mr. Johnson stated that he felt that this was an important point and should be included in the minutes, i .e. should voters decide that a community center is desirable, then approximately 3 million dollars would be available without increasing property taxes (assumes tax increment revenues would be available) , and that such referendum could state that $5,000_,000 could be available in the next five-year period of ' time. Further that if the City did tax for that full $5,000 ,000 program that such would not increase taxes more than $60 to $100 . If the project were scaled back to a $4, 000 ,000 level that the taxes would be about $40 to $70 in homes ranging from $100 , 000 to $150,000 in market value. Councilman Boyt suggested that the Lake Ann option be in ' the form of two options - 1) the community center concept as pre- viously presented; and 2 ) as the site for a new middle school sitecommunity center. The idea of the second alternative would be one of the City acquiring the acreage needed for the school to build a middle school . A condition would be that the school include construction of community center facilities and thus pro- duce the same types of benefits for both the school and city as are currently being considered for the Chanhassen Elementary site. A secondary benefit to the City would be in assuring that the middle school location was in fact Chanhassen. The committee generally supported that this alternative should be pursued and that update reports be provided. Don Ashworth should meet with school representatives to determine whether they would be ame- nable to such an idea. Brad Johnson questioned whether Eckankar would in fact sell a portion of their property for either the community center or school/community center concept. Specifically, he is aware of a number of offers that have been sent to Eckankar which were imme- diately refused. It would be a big mistake to go into the com- ' munity with the concept of a community center being built at Lake Ann Park if in fact there is no commitment from Eckankar to such. The City Manager should write Eckankar to confirm the previous verbal commitment received by him. Committee members appeared to be in agreement. No vote was taken. Chairman Mady stated that the Park and Recreation Commission ' feels a strong need to complete at least a portion of the trail system. Given the last defeat, the Commission would probably not come back with a full-blown trail system; but, instead limit such to major roadways, i .e. County Road 17, Highway 101 , Minnewashta Parkway, etc. Mr. Mady did not know the specific amount that may be needed for such trail construction but would sincerely ask 1 1 I COMMUNITY CENTER TASK FORCE MINUTES DECEMBER 21, 1989 PAGE 4 Ithat the Community Center Task Force to not take a position which would totally deplete or leave no monies available for trail I construction. Leaving about $300 , 000 of unused legal debt capa- city would assure support from people within the community still desiring a trail system. 1 The Commission generally discussed whether a report should be presented to the City Council in January. Work activity currently being scheduled for the January City Council agenda may I preclude that from occurring. Additionally, members appeared to be skeptical of attempting to present a full presentation given the vagueness of each of the two proposals . If the City Council I wished for some form of update or generalized report, such should be considered by the Manager. IAdjournment: The meeting adjourned at 9 : 45 p.m. I I I I I I I I I II J I ty Council Meeting - January 9, 1989 2 II Gary Warren: I guess my own perception of the roadway geometries which was kind of brought to light by some of the work that we did with the signage issue up in Near Mountain subdivision. The Pleasant View Road, there isn't much we can do with the geometries anymore and Councilmember Boyt is correct and I fully support the fact that signs do not control speed. Enforcement is the key to that issue. However, in this case, any of us who are familiar with driving Pleasant View Road realize that with the trees and with the old road that it is and the geometric, the rapid changes in alignment, that we just really did not have good signage out there. I think from a liability standpoint, I was concerned that we at least did what we could to improve that area. Councilwoman Dimler: I guess I had a hard time reading these maps. Are they mostly caution signs or watch for children or what kind of signs? Gary Warren: They're mostly signs, speed limit signs and direction advisory ' signs. There are a few no parking signs that are in zones that were already established. Councilman Johnson: Hidden driveway signs. Gary Warren: And one hidden driveway sign. A new one. ' Mayor Chmiel: We have moved and seconded the approved signage package for Pleasant View with a condition in there that we notify the people on Pleasant View. That a copy of the attached map showing locations would be provided to those adjacent residents within the area and any discussion from those people to come back to City staff. Councilman Boyt moved, Councilman Johnson seconded to approve the Signage Package for Pleasant View Road with the condition that the people along Pleasant View Road be provided the map attached to the package showing the locations of signs. All voted in favor and the motion carried. VISITORS PRESENTATION: Three friends from Chaska presented a gift to the new Mayor, Mayor Chmiel. COMMUNITY CENTER TASK FORCE, UPDATE REPORT. Jim Mady: For those of you who aren't aware, my name is Jim Mady. I was the 1 Chairman of the Chanhassen Community Center Task Force. We'd like to update you as to what we've learned to date. The Community Center Task Force has met for the past 7 months reviewing the possibilities of building a community center in Chanhassen. I am excited at what we have found to date. Our efforts have found two feasible alternatives that differ in location costs and timing. Our study show that our City has a legal bonding limit that allows for the sale of up to 2 million dollars in bonds today over what has already been scheduled. This legal debt limit increases by 1/2 million dollars each year due to growth in our city. This 2 million dollars in bonds can be sold without increasing taxes. Any higher bonding limit for the coming years will necessitate an increase in property taxes. The City can work with the school district on a financing arrangement that increases the amount of bonds the City can legally sell by up 16 City Council Meeting - January 9, 1989 II to 1 1/2 million dollars. The Chaska School Board has shown interest in sharing facilities and makes this financing arrangement feasible. This is the same concept as being studied by the City of Chaska to build a community center at ' the Chaska School Complex. The task force has developed two feasible alternatives. The first site is located on land owned by Eckankar on TH 5 and adjacent to the east side of Lake Ann Park. Due to higher costs associated with ' this site, because of land acquisition and development costs, the City may not be able to construct a full community center on this site until our bonding ability catches up to the cost. The preliminary cost estimate on this site is 4.8 million dollars and may not be fully constructed until possibly the year 1994. It would also require a substantial tax increase. The other alternative, the City Center Park/Elementary School site is located west of the elementary school and fire station and north of the City Hall. It carries a price tag of 3.3 million dollars. Based on preliminary discussions with the Chaska School Board, this alternative may be financially feasible today. The facility on this site includes specialty classrooms for the elementary school. Our discussions ' focused on the needs of additional learning spaces such as band and music rooms, computer labs and other specialty rooms. These rooms would not be used to increase the number of students at the elementary school. The building at either site is envisioned to hold a pool, gymnasium, racquetball courts, ice arena, senior citizen center and meeting rooms. It should be able to handle a population of 35,000 and operate financially self sufficient. We plan to start public discussion very soon. The first step is to inform the city residents as to the alternatives. We will be going to each of the city commissions and providing an update to them and getting their input just as we are doing here tonight. We hope the local papers will publish articles on the alternatives and financing options. Once we have received citizen input, we will report our II findings back to you for your action. Thank you for your time. I am excited by what we have found to date and invite any questions you may have on the concepts. Councilman Johnson: I will continue to emphasize, and it wasn't in here. In the packet we have. I want to be convinced that we can operate a facility of this size with our small population and not have to support it's operating costs The cost we're talking about here is just to build it. When it gets operational, I want that facility, if we build a facility, to be totally self supporting. You state in your report that it will be. I once drove through ' Missouri so show me. I want to see the report. I know you work with numbers yourself so I'd like to see it in an understandable report because there's a lot of people who are going to ask the same question so I think that's one thing to ' get prepared for. I like what you've done here so far. I know that that's been, I've attended several of those meetings and they have been very tough meetings with a lot of people working very hard to make sure that all the is ' are crossed and i's dotted and playing devil's advocate and everything else. It's been quite a challenge to your group and I'd like to commend you also on the long hours everybody has been putting in. Ursula I believe is on the committee there and Bill. A lot of people here, Brad and a lot of our citizens have done a lot of good work on this. I think we've got something that may be feasible and help out our schools and everything. That's my only comment. Councilman Boyt: I think that one of the reasons that Jim came here tonight was to find out if the new Council supports the process. I think it's very important before he and the committee spend time bringing this to the community - to know if the concept of spending 3 or 4 million dollars on a community center 17 r City Council Meeting - January 9, 1989 II has support of the Council. So that's one comment. Another one is, it clearly has my support. I think that there was a third option presented that was sort of late in the process and maybe hasn't been pursued very hard, but that was the , possibility of working even closer with the school district by buying the property and encouraging the school district to build a middle school or high school which would provide a good bit of the community center space and the city would supplement that with additional space. When we started this process we were really after increasing gym space and providing some recreational opportunities that weren't available in our city. There's any number of ways to get at that. You've got two of them Jim and I support your taking those to the community and getting their feedback so we can continue to make progress. Councilman Workman: What's the precise acreage up here by the school site? Jim Mady: The entire park and school land? Councilman Workman: Yes. The land that the school owns that would be used for this? Jim Mady: The school property itself, now keep in mind that this site is two parcels of land. There's the city owned parcel which is the site that goes from the fire hall straight west all the way to Kerber Blvd. where the hockey rinks are and the ice skating rink and one of the ballfields. That's all city owned property. The school owns the remainder of the property from that site north. I don't have with me... Councilman Workman: Available space available behind the elementary school, I basically we're putting in how much property is that in acreage? Councilwoman Dimler: Mr. Mayor, I know the answer to that if I could answer. I stepped it off with my father-in-law who's a farmer and it is just slightly over 11 acres that would be there for building. Couniclman Workman: I was at the Chaska Chamber meeting today and Mayor Ruedke down there gave his state of the town speech and they're getting more and more excited about their own facility down there. How closely are we, we're tied into Chaska quite closely and they're ready to throw 5 million into it apparently with a hocky arena and everything else. Activists are working hard to get their own hockey arena. In getting back to Jay's point, with the hockey arena being a very large portion of this and many suggestions about sharing this kind of a facility with Shakopee, Chaska, Chanhassen. How closely are we looking at that angle? Jim Mady: There are two points to consider on an ice arenda. First off is construction. An ice arena will cost in the neighborhood of $8,000.00 to $9,000.00. The second item to remember is what that thing, what the ice arena will bring into the operating budget. Based on numbers given to us by both the Eden Prairie Community Center and the Minnetonka Ice Arena, the ice arena would generate excess operating revenues of at least $100,000.00 over it's operating cost. Those dollars would then be thrown back into the operating budget to cover programs that will not sustain themselves. Councilman Workman: But even if the Chaska Hawks Hockey team is playing hockey in Chaska not here? ' 18 1 City Council Meeting - January 9, 1989 ice: Jim Mady: We're not banking totally on the Chaska Hawks. We have a commitment a verbal commitment from the Minnetonka Ice Association to rent 500 hours of ice with this facility. There is a shortage of ice throughout the metropolitan area. Currently the Chaska Hawks are playing in the Shakopee bubble. The Shakopee bubble exists on a day to day basis. If it goes down, Shakopee has no ' plans at this time to build an ice arena. My understanding is that if that were to happen, it's a good chance that the Chanhassen hockey program would move as far away as possibly LeSeur. There just isn't facilities around so maybe Chaska might build their own. My understanding previously was that they are looking at ' an ice arena and it would be in Phase 2 of their program. I don't know when that is. I'm not fully aware of everything and the timelines of their program. There was an article in I believe it is the January 5th issue of the South Shore ' News that covered that. There's a couple of paragraphs in there. It looks like they're moving somewhat slow right now trying to organize their financing. They've got some things they're looking for. I think the number was $175,000.00 ' a year from the school system so they're needing to get their ducks in order just as we are. Councilman Workman: They do things a little bit different down there. I believe they paid cash for their brand new city hall. They do things a little bit differently and that's why looking at $84.00 per year raised taxes and stuff and that sounds all fairly for adding a lot more. This is my concern is that 1 we're adding a lot more debt. I have two little girls and I'd like to go on record as saying I'd love to have a community center. But again within reason and that's what I'm trying to figure out. If it's all going to be able to flow II IL because there's so many things going around. I hear Waconia's thinking about their own. If all that happens and everybody has their own community centers, will our town support that? Jim Mady: Preliminary estimates and numbers that we've been given and the information that we've been given from the Eden Prairie Community Center facility manager of the previous task force, at least the first task force ' strongly felt we could do it. Be self sufficient without any problems. There':s no guarantees in life but the numbers all show that it can work. Councilman Workman: Otherwise the committee has basically, are not favorable to ' property at Lake Ann which we already own? Jim Mady: The Lake Ann site itself was looked at. It has two problems. Number ' one, the City has a standing agreement with the Metropolitan Waste Commission that we will not enter into the built sewers in the non-sewered area of Chanhassen. Lake Ann Park, as it sits now, is outside the MUSA line, Metropolitan Urban Service Area, and we can not enter into that sewer line from that parcel. Councilman Workman: The Eckankar is outside of that line? ' Jim Mady: Eckankar is within, the line's right there. Eckankar is within. Lake Ann is without. The second item there is the voters have already asked us, passed the referendum to construct badly needed ballfields and parking at Lake Ann. Unless you want to tear down some very beautiful forests on Lake Ann, there simply isn't the room to do all those things out there. I 19 11 1-"—City Council Meeting - January 9, 1989 Lori Sietsema: If I could add a third item. The land at Lake Ann Park was 1 acquired with LAWCON funds which are federal funds and you have to go through a conversion process to convert those into indoor recreational facilities. It doesn't happen very easily. It's a big long process and you have to look at, if ' there's any other alternatives for the facility that you want to build, if there is any other alternative, they'll deny you that. So we can't do anything but outdoor activity at Lake Ann Park without that approval. That has to be federal and state approval. Mayor Chmiel: If a city is proposing to put in a community center within those lines for strictly city use, I think they would move on those positions without much problem, from what I understand too. From what you just said, it's hard to have than move or actually approve this within a short period of time or they may even deny it. ' Lori Sietsema: The only way, I talked to LAWCON, the people in detail about this and one of the things that we would have to do is replace the acreage that we're building an indoor facility on if indeed there is no other alternative for the the facility. But number one, there has to be no other alternative and number two, you have to replace the property with lake property. As far as, it impacts it so much that way, they're building TH 5, an additional easement to go to the south because the conversion process is so stringent. That's what I've been told by that office. Councilman Johnson: So MnDot avoided trying to do that conversion process? ' Lori Sietsema: Yes. 1_11 Councilman Johnson: They're not going to take on the feds. Councilwoman Dimler: I'd like to commend Jim Mady for the work that he's done. He's been through a difficult process. I guess the comments that I would like, as Bill Boyt said, that it's up to the Council. I don't really feel it is. The only thing we'll be doing is voting on whether we'll put it on the referendum to the people. Therefore, at your public hearings, I would suggest that in order to feel the people out, get a king of poll after each meeting. After you present than with the different locations and I would suggest you do mention the third option and maybe even ask them if they have a particular site that they'd like to see it at so we can get a full picture of what the public is thinking. Then at that time, poll them, attach sheets of paper and fold them to see which site they prefer and if indeed they want a community center. Having those two questions on there I think would give us a good idea of what we should then go ahead and put on the referendum. Mayor Chmiel: One other point I'd like to bring up, or question I should ask 1 is, where and what areas are you going to contact within the City to make your informational hearings at? Jim Mady: That hasn't been decided yet. I would assume that we would hold public meetings as we did in the past at Minnetonka Intermediate School. Chanhassen Elementary School. Various meetings that are held throughout the city from time to time. It would be the Legion people and the Hockey Association, APT, St. Hubert's. Whatever groups have meetings and will allow us on their agenda, we tend to try and go there and bring the information. 20 11 rCity Council Meeting - January 9, 1989 rCouncilman Johnson: I continue to support this. I believe that one thing I don't want to see is a rise in taxes to do it. When you look at an $85.00 a ' year increase for $100,000.00 if we go to the Eckankar site, that scares me. I can't see our voters approving that. From my feel of the voters here. Does the grade school site, is that like, for lack of a better word, the Filly site, is ' that balanced to a point where we're not raising taxes to build that one? That we'll be retiring debt, enough retired debt to cover it and it will be a break even? Jim Mady: My understanding of the way this works is, right now we're given a mil levy. The City has the ability to sell an additional 2 million dollars over what already is on the books or is scheduled to be sold with the fire truck. We ' have the ability right now to go for an additional 2 million dollars. Through using the school, the sharing of the school and the City financing option which gets into the excess levy on the tax increment district, the City can pick up an ' additional 1 1/2 million dollars when we work with the school board. Councilman Johnson: That's enough to build that one but my question is, if we ' do that, what's the effect on local taxes? Jim Mady: Right now we would be able to leave the mil levy as it is. If none of the options are built, we would be able to, the Council would be able to possibly reduce taxes up to I think it's about $45.00 on a $100,000.00 house or they have the option_of reducing debt quicker. Retiring it. Mayor Chmiel: Jim, with the other members too on the committee, what's the consensus of feeling from them, the school site? Eckankar site? Jim Mady: We really didn't take a vote. We're basically coming out to the ' people and saying, here are the numbers. Here's the cost. Here's the time lines that we have been told. Give us your input. That's what we're really doing right now. We want the citizens of Chanhassen to tell us what they want r to do. Let each individual make up their own mind based on the numbers as they stand today. ' Councilman Boyt: If I might follow up here. I think the one thing Jim that you and the committee need to keep in mind is that, at least from my perspective, the City can not spend all it's bonding capacity on a community center. To do so would be to deny the potential for quite a long time of having a trail and ' sidewalk program of any kind other than what we funded out of new construction. I think a very significant part of the population wants that program. It's failed twice by a handful of votes each time. I'm not prepared to see the City ' sink all it's money into the community center even though I strongly support the center. I think we need to be saving some money for the trail system or for another option that the community says that they want. Jim Mady: One thing to keep in mind is the City's legal bonding limit is growing a 1/2 million dollars per year and that growth is estimated to continue at least through the year 1995. Brad Johnson: I'm on the task force and I was also involved in the first one and spent a lot of time running around fighting the antis and I think we've spent a lot of time on this particular situation trying to figure out, how can 21 r 34 City Coun:il Meeting - January 9, 1989 . 1 we get a consensus because we think it can carry if in fact everybody feels that the site is the correct site. The time table is the correct site and the financing is the correct site. Or at least the public is given the chance to do that. I could even sense tonight, you asked the question, which is the better site. I don't think most of us are going to say which is the better site. We think we need a community center. We think if we don't go through the process correctly, the community center will be defeated because people will be upset we didn't go through the correct process. I think it's unfair then to ask which one we feel is the best. I would say that if there's 15 members on a program, 5 are prejudice to Lake Ann for various reasons and 5 are prejudice towards the school site for various reasons and some of us are prejudice for other reasons. I think we can't, all of us haven't collected our thoughts as to what to do but I do believe that we must, that it's going to take a combined effort of what I'll call the group that voted against it or led the original fight against the Filly site, to combine with the guys that are trying to still do it. We have a couauittee that's made up of both parties. I'm still not sure we've come to a consensus but maybe by listening to the public, we'll be able to figure that out. Secondly, I think as far as the Chaska issue is concerned, we're a year and a half ahead of Chaska. We've already had one defeat. I think they have to go through that. They're not even thinking about a referendum until next summer and they're up to 5-10 million dollars. Chaska is a different community. It's not our community. We're in Chanhassen. We have two school districts to service. They only have one. We also service the Minnetonka school district. Our community has nothing to bring the whole community together and I think this is one effort that does do that. We can't change the school system around. We have a good elementary that keeps our community together but I don't think the rest is true. As far as hockey or ice arena useage is concerned, our other half, the Minnetonka side of the school district would buy all the time. There's just no doubt. And if not, Eden Prairie would so there's no problem. And you could build one in Waconia and you could build one wherever and they'd all be filled up in the metropolitan area. I don't think you have to be too concerned, short term of what would happen in that particular case. But I think the key element in here is that we want to go out. There's two issues. One is, .: what site? Before we can go to the referendum, we have to have a site. I think we want the public to give us as much input as possible. I admit that it's hard not to be prejudice and I think all of us have to work when we make a presentation to follow the presentation that's not too prejudice. Once that's accomplished and we have a site, we have to come back to you with the financial feasibility of it all in a proposal and if you feel it's, I don't think you're going to say go ahead and do a referendum until you feel it's financially feasible. Then finally, like Jay was saying, and part of it's the tax question, and then I think whether we do it or not, all of us have to work hard, who are volunteers to try to sell the community on it. I think that's the process we're asking to go through. The purpose of this night's meeting was to bring you up to speed on where we are and all the work we've done. You've got two members on the Council that are a part of the committee and Jay sits in periodically and we welcome all of you but I think it's a real, you really got to think about it. Why we do it and maybe we won't do it if the voters say no, but some of us like a chance at it and I think that's the way it's goes. PUBLIC HEARING: VACATION OF OUTLOT A LOCATED BETWEEN LOT 2, BLOCK 1 AND LOT 1 BLOCK 2, CARVER BEACH ESTATES, NORTH SIDE OF LAKE LUCY ROAD, BOECK-KEVITT PARTNERSHIP. 22 , • 1.� City Council Meeting - January 9, 1989 II Steve Hanson: This is a request to vacate an outlot in Carver Beach Estates located between Lot 2, Block 1 and Lot 1, Block 2 on the north side of Lake Lucy II Road. The owners of this parcel requested that this be vacated so they could split the parcel and return the pieces back to the adjoining lots. We've gone through, in trying to do the review, we had scheduled this assuming that it was a simple vacation and we've turned up some loose ends that we haven't been able to tie up at this point in time. What I've suggested in the staff report is that because we have advertised for a public hearing, that you open the public hearing. Take any testimony from the public that's here so they have their ' opportunity to voice their opinion at that hearing and then we'll do the follow-up and bring this back to you when we're able to complete the research on this particular item. Mayor Chmiel called the public hearing to order. Councilman Johnson moved, Councilwoman Dimler seconded to close the public hearing. All voted in favor and the motion carried. The public hearing was closed. Councilwoman Dimler: I did talk to the Art Owens family today, who is affected by this and they seem to have no problems with it at all. Councilman Boyt moved, Councilman Johnson seconded to table the vacation of ' Outlot A located between Lot 2, Block 1 and Lot 1, Block 2 of Carver Beach Estates for the Boeck-Kevitt Partnership until the January 23, 1989 meeting. IL ' All voted in favor and the motion carried. SIDEYARD SETBACK VARIANCE REQUEST FOR A PARKING LOT, EARLY BEGINNINGS DAYCARE CENTER, 1450 PARK COURT, ROME CORPORATION. Steve Hanson: The Board of Adjustments met prior to City Council tonight to consider the variance for this particular request. I passed out a sheet earlier, before you sat down and opened the meeting, that covers the justification for granting the variance. The Board of Adjustments made those findings and approved the variance as requested and they approved it with two conditions. The first of those being that the area to the north along the ' parking area where it encroaches on the setback, that that be screened with evergreens. Then the second condition was the request that's before you has essentially where it's overlapping on that setback is a driveway servicing some parking stalls. They requested that the second condition be that that area not be used for parking, meaning the driveway and that it be signed or striped accordingly. ' Councilman Boyt moved, Councilman Workman seconded to approve the sideyard setback variance request for a parking lot, Early Beginnings Daycare Center, 1450 Park Court, Rome Corporation with the following conditions: 1. The area to the north along the parking area where it encroaches on the setback, be screened with evergreens. 2. The driveway where it's overlapping the setback, not be used for parking and be signed or striped accordingly. All voted in favor and the motion carried. ' 23 CITY OF ..... .- II CHANHASSEN vi'l' ,„ - „1„,.. -4'" 690 COULTER DRIVE • P.O. BOX 147 • CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 II (612) 937-1900 I ` January 12, 1989 Larkin, Hoffman, Daly, Lindgren, Ltd. II Attn: Mr. Peter Beck 1500 Norwest Financial Center 7900 Xerxes Avenue Minneapolis, MN 55431 I Re: Community Center - Eckankar Property Dear Mr. Beck: I Approximately six months ago I contacted you regarding whether II Eckankar would consider selling an approximate 10 to 15 acre par- cel in the southwest corner of the Eckankar property for the City to construct a community center. After passing the request along to the church, you contacted me stating that representatives of I Eckankar had discussed this item and would be willing to sell such a parcel if this was a priority of the City of Chanhassen, i .e. Eckankar does not currently have the property on the market I and they would prefer to maintain the integrity of the entire parcel while decisions are being made as to its long-term use. However, again, if this were a priority for the City and that location was desired by the community, Eckankar would be willing �� II to sell such. There would be no strings associated with the sale. In terms of the selling price to the City, you had conveyed that II Eckankar would be willing to sell the parcel at its cost, i .e. the cost per acre would be the cost paid by Eckankar per acre, II plus pro-rated shares of any special assessments, taxes, etc. , as well as holding costs which would approximate typical interest rates during that period. [Note: Your description to me of the selling price was not as elaborate as shown in this letter. The II elaboration represents solely my interpretation of your more generalized statements. The reason for my elaboration can be seen in the next paragraph. 1 The Community Center Task Force proceeded during the summer/fall of 1988 in preparing two alternative community center configurations/sites. On January 9 , 1989 , both of the concepts II were presented to the Chanhassen City Council . It was the posi- tion of the Council that each of these two plans should be taken II 11 • II is Mr. Peter Beck IIJanuary 12 , 1989 Page 2 Iback into the community to seek public input. In recognition of the fact that the item would be taken to the community, I need to I be in a position of assuring potential audiences that the Lake Ann (Eckankar property) is in fact a reasonable alternative. I am fearful that I may get all the way through the process and find that I have not properly communicated our desires to repre- I sentatives of Eckankar or that I had not properly understood the financial considerations. Accordingly, I would ask that you for- ward this letter to the representatives with which you had pre- Iviously received approval from. I see no necessity to enter into a formal option agreement or to I even further define the specific costs more so than outlined above. As this still represents an initial planning stage, I think that simply a letter from Eckankar which would acknowledge that this letter represents the previous and current thoughts of I the church. They may wish to see changes to this letter occur before confirming their position. I would be more than willing to redraft this to a format more desirable. I also stand ready to either meet or discuss the City' s position in further detail . I would prefer ending this letter at this point; however, in fairness to my Community Center Task Force members , I cannot. As I mentioned earlier, two sites have been identified for potential location of the community center, 1 ) A site adjoining the existing Chanhassen Elementary buildings; and 2 ) The Eckankar I prop-erty adjacent to Lake Ann . The school property has the benefit of allowing the community center to be attached to the existing elementary school buildings and, accordingly, increase I both the usage of the City as well as the school , i.e. sharing of_ gym, restrooms, cafeteria , etc. While there are many high school/middle schools which have availability of a swimming pool in their complex, there are virtually no elementary schools I having this level of service. Again , the idea is intriguing to the School District. Of concern is the restrictive size of the parcel and the necessity to introduce buildings/hard surfaced I areas into current play areas . The next growth need for our school district is a middle school. One of the suggestions by committee members was to incorporate the concepts being con- sidered at the elementary school into a middle school complex - I all of which being located at Lake Ann (Eckankar property) . The idea was discussed with school officials and significant cost savings could occur for both the City and School if such was I developed as a joint venture. Of concern is the fact that a minimum of 25 acres would be required for the combined community center/middle school complex. IDo you know what the church ' s reaction to this type of a proposal would be? I think it is fair to state that if this latter -- request were to in any way jeopardize the first request, it would Ibe quickly withdrawn. I Mr. Peter Beck January 12 , 1989 Page 3 Thank you again for acting as an intermediary for us.

Over the past several months, our committee has met to evaluate the informa- tion available and to reach the recommendations which are before you. Initially, our committee reviewed information pertaining to other recreational facilities including a slide show of other work in which the architects have been involved, information presented by Mr. Redman regarding local community centers and general information from across the country. The committee then scheduled a meeting with each user group to allow the user groups to present information regarding their specific topic of interest. Mr. Redman had communicated with these user groups prior to their presentation to us so they were familiar with the information we were looking for. The information presented by the user groups was concise and thorough. Many groups actually presented blueprints, specifications, cost factors and many other considerations for our review. After each user group made it's presentation, the committee entered a dialogue with them to answer general questions. i The committee then reviewed it's mission statement and reviewed the budget which was initially 6.2 million dollars. II The committee's discussions evolved with a consensus being that the top priority and a major component of our community center should be to serve the social/arts function of our city. It is our group's recommendation that the community center should include a large wet and dry crafts area and a separate _ community/arts room. The community/arts room would be a large meeting room with a kitchen i facility. This facility could serve for general meetings, wedding receptions, r etc. In order to maximize the versatility of this room, it was also desirable to create a stage area. Approximately 200 removable chairs could then be placed within this room for seating for piano recitals, small theatre performances, etc. It was also felt that the community center should have a child care facility for th. watching of small children while the parents are able to use the community cF +ter. d: i I 1 II Ir II Chaska City Council I Page Two January 12, 1989 I ir The committee has also considered the need for a large auditorium within our II city. The location of such an auditorium has not yet been answered. Whether a new facility is needed or a remodeled auditorium is sufficient, has not been deter- mined. We are recommending the establishment of a designated fund with a minimum II of $250,000 as the seed money for such an auditorium. The architect has been instructed to plan the community center to allow for its potential location at the community center. e The committee then progressed on to review the recreational aspects of t he II IL community center. The group unanimously felt that a field house component would serve the greatest number of user groups and was also of the greatest need within the City of Chaska. As such a field house is being proposed to include a fitness II dance area, a strength and conditioning area, two racquetball courts and a large I running track. There would also be two gymnasiums which can be divided into five volleyball courts or a wrestling and gymnastics area. I Irr Based upon the initial budget constraints of 6.2 million dollars, it was impossible for the committee to include both a water and ice component in the first phase as the available 6.2 million would not allow for it. The committee II hoped to see both components built within the community center. It was therefore Iof great interest to the committee to learn that based upon recently confirmed II financing options the community center's budget could expand to 8.2 million dollars. I After meetings with Mr. Pokorney, who explained the tax increment financing II process to us, it was a consensus of the committee to recommend to this city council to expend the budget to 8.2 million dollars. The committee recognizes the IL large sum of money involved, but sincerely believes that the opportunity and the .; creative financing available justify the increase. I I_ Given the opportunity to include both the water and ice functions within the community center, the committee recommends including both components within the II initial construction. As such, the ice component can now be included within the Lfirst phase. This ice component would include an ice sheet which can be used for many II activities articulated within the ice user group's material . The ice component would have the future seating ability for 500 people. The goal is to have the sheet of ice built with a covered, heated structure. Some of the amenities such II as bleachers, etc. may need to be added at a later point when monies allow. LIn regard to the water component, a leisure pool is being proposed rather than a competition pool. I believe the council is aware of the leisure pool II 1 concept based upon the previous slide presentations of the architects. This pool would cater to people of all ages involving play aparatus, shallow areas for small children and swim instruction, sloped access for the handicapped, warmer tempera- tures for more comfortable water recreation, a whirlpool and other attributes. I II t II II If Chaska City Council If Page Three January 12, 1989 . lir It is the committee's expectation to continue to move forward in working with the architects to further delineate construction costs, square footage require- ments and develop the initial drawings for use by this council and any future lirsurvey which may be needed. The committee unanimously recommends the general budget which is submitted within this packet. We urge the council to review the recommendation and to work toward the creation of this community center. We anticipate financing actions are necessary and further involvement with our committee will be needed. IfThis letter is a very brief summary of the detailed work performed by the committee. I look forward to making an oral presentation to the council regarding the committee's work. Respectfully submitted, i pN—cl.,--1.1/4.0 l'h0-4-')".":) Marsh J.
