BOX 147 • CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 (612) 937-1900 MEMORANDUM TO: Don Ashworth, City Manager FROM: Gary Warren, City Engineer 3/_ DATE: March 9 , 1988 �'1 SUBJ: Approval of Plans and Specifications for Church Road As will be recalled, the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission (MWCC) is constructing the Lake Virginia Forcemain this year along the west side of Church Road. As a result of negotiations, the Commission will be restoring the existing road surface of Church Road with a full City standard urban section including concrete curb and gutter. At the June 15 , 1987 City Council meeting, plans and specifica- tions were authorized for the installation of sanitary sewer on Church Road to specifically serve the Wanous and Campbell proper- ties . An alternative existed at that time relating to the Gary Carlson property on the west side of Church Road. Mr. Carlson had petitioned the City to provide sewer and water across his proposed development ( i .e. Lot 3 and 4 , Schmid' s Addition) , see map. The City' s sanitary sewer needs to be in place prior to the MWCC forcemain construction and road resurfacing. Westwood Planning and Engineering has designed the City improve- ments and Engelhardt and Associates are consultants for the Gary Carlson property. The attached plan sheet shows the proposed sanitary sewer installation. This will be a direct connection to West 62nd Street. In the near future the subdivision proposal for the Gary Carlson Property will be before the Planning Commission. An additional 17 feet of right-of-way is proposed to be dedicated by Carlson to provide the City with a full 50-foot right-of-way along Church Road. Likewise, the City currently has a request in to the City of Shorewood for a similar dedication of 17 feet along the park property. Acquisition of this additional right-of-way is important to provide us with an adequate boulevard area of 9i feet in back of curb on each side. If this were not the case, the new 31-foot road section would have to be fit within the existing 33-foot right-of-way, leaving an inadequate amount (only 1 foot) of boulevard area in back of curb for snow storage and other maintenance functions. Don Ashworth March 9 , 1988 Page 2 As will be recalled, the Frizzell and Kerber properties on the southeast side of Church Road were not in favor of sewer service at this time and as such the Council only authorized sanitary sewer to service the Wanous and Campbell properties. The pro- posed Carlson improvements will provide utilities ( sewer and water) along the west side of Church Road. This will allow the jacking of utility service underneath Church Road in the event that the Frizzell and Kerber properties request pervice in the future without disturbing the new road surface. The Carlson platting is being reviewed by the Planning Commission at its March 16, 1988 meeting. The MWCC forcemain contractor (Northdale Construction Co. ) is planning to be undertaking construction on Church Road in April - May, 1988. Due to the timing and coordination challenges of this project, it would be advantageous to negotiate the installation of this sanitary sewer as a Change order to the MWCC forcemain project. The engineer' s estimated cost for this installation including administration, contingencies, engineering et seq. at 20% is $18,970 . These improvements would be assessed to the benefitting property owners following the procedures established in the feasibility study accepted by the City Council on May 18, 1987 . It is therefore recommended that the City Council approve the attached plans and specifications for Church Road sanitary sewer improvements, Project No. 87-5, and authorize entering into a joint powers agreement with the MWCC for installation of these utilities as a change order to MWCC project number 82-53-327 .

At the May 4 , 1987, meeting, the City Council, in response to a petition, accepted the feasibility study for sewer, water, and roadway improvements to Church Road (minutes attached) . Since that meeting, staff has had the opportunity to receive input some of the property owners . The attached letters from the City of Shorewood and Gary Carlson shall be incorporated into the public record for the hearing. I have met with our consultant on the project, Westwood Planning and Engineering, and an additional alternate, combination Option No. 4 (attached) , has been reviewed. In my opinion, Option 4 provides the best engineering solution to servicing this dif- ficult area. This would provide for looping of the water system since the City' s trunk funds would be utilized to complete a con- nection jacking under TH 7 to our 12" main on the south side of TH 7 . As identified in the attachments , Mr. Carlson is in favor of the connection through his property. He is agreeable to providing us easements to make the connections across his property in lieu of the platting process. Cost to all concerned, however, is a fac- tor. I will be prepared Monday night to go into more details as necessary to review this and the other alternatives. If the project is to proceed further from this point, a selected alternative or combination of alternatives should be identified as a part of this process. If combination Option No. 4 is not chosen, the following might be an acceptable alternative: 1 . The proposed sanitary sewer connection shown as Option 2 , Exhibit G of the Feasibility Study, be undertaken to ser- vice strictly the Wanous, Campbell, and Shorewood prop- erty. Mr. Don Ashworth May 15, 1987 Page 2 2 . That in the interest of fire protection and the willingness of the City of Shorewood to support the installation of watermain, that watermain also be installed as indicated on Exhibit H of the Feasibility Study as a part of the improvements. The City would be responsible for the jacking of the watermain under TH 7 and this would facilitate looping of the system if and when the Carlson property is subdivided. 3 . That the existing 20 ft. wide roadway be constructed as a 24 ft. wide rural section consistent with City rural standards. If the MWCC will not agree to the additional four ( 4 ) feet of roadway cost, this would be assessed back to the abutting property owners on a per foot basis. • At the conclusion of the public hearing, if the Council chooses to proceed with this project, it will be appropriate to entertain a motion to authorize preparation of plans and specifications consistent with the selected alternative(s) , and that Westwood Planning and Engineering Company be designated as the design engineer for this project.

Gary Warren: As you are aware, the Metropolitan Waste Control Conm:1.. ivrl *is v9 going to be constructing mostly this year and probably even next gear t;tta y� i`,J Virginia Forcemain and the Lake Ann Interceptor. The alingment fcr the. lake Virginia Forcemain comes out of Shorewood down 62nd Street and alcr: western edge basically of Church Road and then on it's way gJ fie• easement of TH 7. The discussions with the commission indicate thatt�Chtu ± Road, street service will basically be totally obliterated due to the; construction in that area and it's present condition which can't support: construction traffic. So Staff thought that at least we should tat atJonk: at whether there was an interest to have sanitary sewer and/or watermaiiral mem iirato this area. The current properties along Church Road here, Wanous, Cimq y., 18 City Council Meeting - April 6, 1987 Frizzell, Kerber, Carlson and the park area here are not serviced by water with the exception of the few properties that Gary Carlson has brought in sewer and water to with his own buildings. City records are not very - accurate. I see that he has done that on his own behalf. There is a stub that exists from 62nd Street that was provided from sanitary sewer interceptor on 62nd which is available and that will be the likely route for installing sanitary sewer here and a watermain exists in the cartway on this side of the roadway. Again, we haven't done a detailed feasibility yet. That's what we're discussing tonight but to get an idea, we're looking at possibly bringing the watermain in across the southern boundary of the park area and then split it and go up and down Church Road. Basically we have a petition. I have not received anything in writing from the other property owners but we have received a petition from Wanous and Campbells for Council to consider this item and Staff, as I pointed out, was interested as perhaps the Council is to see the thoughts from the property owners in the area. This would be an opportune time to save at least the expense of the roadway surface. • Mayor Hamilton: I just have one comment. It seems to me that anytime we have , the opportunity to eliminate septic systems and hook up to sewer and water system, we ought to take advantage of it and this is certainly a good opportunity for these properties to come on-line and that would be four septic system we would be eliminating from the City which I think is a credit. Even with all the information that people say they are good systems, I still think it's good to eliminate as many septic systems as possible and I was happy to see this. Councilman Boyt: I would be interested if there are any of the property owners here tonight. I'll hold off until I've had a chance to hear from them. Merlyn Wanous: I instigated this petition. I've had conversations with the City Engineer and he informs us that, like with the septic systems, that once they go bad there is an ordinance that prohibits a permit to install a new system and ours is the newest house there and our system is 27 years old but we've maintained it. We've had it pumped every three years. There is nothing wrong with the system. It's great but I see an opportunity to save some money. If it would be possible at this time because this opportunity will never present itself again. This is the only time and it is somehow the same • construction could dig it up and put the system in at the same time. The only question I have is as long as the sewer is going to be forced under TH 7, the water is on the other side of TH 7, if it somehow couldn't be forced the same way and be cost saving to a certain degree. Mayor Hamilton: Did you look into that at all? Gary Warren: Yes, we can not share the same trench with the forcemain. Water and sewer going together. • Merlyn Wanous: The only reason I presented the petition is because I felt it's a good opportunity to fix it and you never know with Victoria drilling a new well whether our wells are going to go dry or whether they are going to become contaminated at some future time and here is an opportunity to hook up to the City system and be assured of clean water. That's all I've got to say. 19 City Council Meeting - April 6, 1987 Harry Campbell: I pretty much believe what Merlyn says. There's not much more that I can add to it but we just feel that as long as they are going to tear the road up, why not put the sewer down because maybe in a couple of years they will be right back there having to put sewer in then and why retear the road all back up again so this is more or less why we want the sewer in now. As long as they are going to tear that road up. Like I say, Merlyn said just about the same opinion i have about the whole thing right now. Mayor Hamilton: Harry, do you know what the other neighbors there, what their thoughts are on this? Have you talked to them? Harry Campbell: Jim is right here so you can get his opinon of that but I don't know too much what Kerber down at the corner. He's here too. Jim Frizzell: When I learned about this I agree that there is an opportunity here because they are going to be digging up the road. The questions that came to my mind. Two basic questions was the question of need. Like Merlyn C, said, the septic systems have been in for a while. On the other hand, for the water end of it, we all just put brand new wells in. We all incurred, I think ,' it was $5,000.00 a piece for a new well in April of 1984. Septic systems are supporting small dwellings. I live alone. Kerber has two small dwellings on the corner, one bedroom houses. Merlyn and Harry's are both three bedroom houses. They have two people living in their house. It's not a cramped environment. It's not a city environment. The whole back of the property is my property and it's open. I think that's a consideration. I think there is enough space there so it doesn't pose a big threat so the need I don't think is as drastic as in other areas. The other point was the question of economic justification. If the estimates that I've seen, what Harry and I were talking about, about $8,500.00 initially per lot owner plus any stub fees and whatever • the cost is to actually hook up to the house. We had kind of ballparked about $12,000.00 estimate not to mention if there be any road assessment. If they upgrade the road from a 4 ton to a 7 ton road so in my mind we're talking about $12,000.00 to $15,000.00. You put $12,000.00 to $15,000.00 into the value of these houses, we're not talking $100,000.00 houses here. They range from $20,000.00, $30,000.00, $40,000.00, $50,000.00 maybe up to $80,000.00 so we're talking 20%, 30%, 40a of the value of the house in the septic and water system which in my mind we do not need. We have brand new wells we just paid for three years ago this month and I think adequate septic systems. Those two points along with I think a majority of the land owners there, Kerber, myself and Carlson, would oppose on the basis of that reasoning. If we want it just because the opportunity exists, I have a hard time feeling that. Mayor Hamilton: I think the action we would take tonight would be to recommend that the City go ahead with a feasibility study. At that time, once the feasibility study is done, then we would know costs pretty close to what the actual costs would be and it would also be reviewed again at that time and you would be notified and you could come in and look at the feasibility study. That sounds like a lot of money to me too but the Council has had no opportunity to see what costs may be and that's the timing on it. We would like to do that so we would know what it might cost. It might be a lot less. Councilman Geving: Not only that but there probably will be some options 20 • City Council Meeting - April 6, 1987 there too where you could go with sewer and not water or both depending on what the feasibility study said. Mayor Hamilton: We're not trying to approve this tonight. Mike Kerber: I guess mine is pretty much along the same lines. to know what it's going to cost. I look down the street and some Iaresgoingtto get hit. We've got property in Shorewood and Victoria so I'm getting hit already because it's coming down the line twice. I'm not against improvements. Not at all but dollars and cents. I want to know what it's going to cost. Mayor Hamilton: That's what we want to know too. Mike Kerber: I sunk $2,000.00 in a well last year. I also called last year to find out because the fire barn is just 100 feet away from mye j property, why we can't bring water over there being it's that far and I was it - -j told that never, ever would there be water to service those 3 to 4 Now all of a sudden they can have it or possibly. houses. Mayor Hamilton: At this time last year we didn't know that we would have this Metropolitan Council rally , lon when this p oject would be done. State, with the Mike Kerber: Was this all up in the air because I heard last year that they are going to remodel TH 7. They are going to do all this and this is all coming through. Mayor Hamilton: But the sewer project had not been approved. We were still fighting with the State trying to figure out what we were going to do with this. Mike Kerber: Okay, if you could get some figures as to what it's going to cost. Now these guesstimates because I know how they double. What it's going to cost. Councilman Boyt: I have a quick request and it looks to me Cary like we're goign to go ahead with the feasibility study. When we do, I would like to know the difference in cost between doing it now versus say waiting until there is in fact a true need. How much does the road save in other words? Mike Kerber: I've two houses there. If it does go through, do I get hit with two assessments or one? Councilman Geving: One per lot. Probably a unit basis. Mike Kerber: It's a small lot. There are two houses on it now. Grandfathered in or whatever. It's been there for forever. Gary Warren: That is a big question on the area. Even area and in talking with Gary Carlson, just the number of though t hatawemwould come up with on the feasibility study really needs to look at that closely. 21 I City Council Meeting - April 6, 1987 Who can split and who can't and how many units are we dealing with because that can change the cost pretty dramatically. Mike Kerber: I doubt anybody would ever let me split that. Move one out or whatever. There are two houses so I don't want to pay for two assessments either. Gary Warren: You've got two there now? Mike Kerber: There are two small houses yes. Gary Warren: So right now we would look at it as two units. Mayor Hamilton: That would be something that would be in the feasibility study. What the size of the lot is? The properties that exist today with homes on there. '2 1 Councilman Geving: That's why the feasibility study is so important Mike. We'll know at that time how feasible this is and how many units on-your property. Whether it's one or two and a you can have �•� • would be assessed for this Pproximately how much you basis. project. Whether it's on a unit basis or a footage • Mike Kerber: So if it went through as one, that somewhere down the line I could never have two, and then you wanted to hook up. Can we hook up community type? Hook to one house and run over to the over? Mayor Hamilton: No. No way. You can't do that. Councilman Geving: Once we lock that in, you'll know how many units you can put on that lot and get serviced by that sewer. You probably would have to talk to our attorney but you probably would have every right to maintain those two units because you have them grandfathered. I don't know. We would have to discuss that. You have two units there, we might have to give you two units. Merlyn Wanous: If this is not passed, what if Harry and I would just run a line back here to the existing sanitary sewer. Like Mr. Carlson over there, he had the opportunity and he ran it right through his own property to the existing sewer right over here and he hooked up his units to that. He paid for the construction of the unit himself but it went right through his land. The sewer is right here and then we could just run a private line through our own property. Mayor Hamilton: I suppose that's possible and Gary can you address that? Gary Warren: It's possible. I think the fact that there is 15 of already in the street and there is potential seeing that Wanous andtCampbellr are downstream. Usually it's the other way around, that we could look at the cost here of just servicing those two properties and put a manhole so in the future it could be extended to this whole alignment. 22 ( City Council Meeting - April 6, 1987 i ir- Councilman Geving: It should be one of the options. It should be one of the alternatives. Merlyn Wanous: Work something out here and everyone would be happy.

Mayor Hamilton: I had a call from Rick Murray this afternoon and he's at another Council meeting this evening and would have liked to have been here to comment on this because it hits him particularly heavy. He has a lot of questions about it and I think he has some very good ideas about how this project could possibly be done for less than what the feasibility study shows so if the Council doesn't mind, Rick said he could be at our next Council ( 'S/ meeting and if we could table this until that time. Is that going to " ,-� problem? g g cause a i Gary Warren: I think what you're saying is the curb and gutter improvements. II The watermain and sanitary sewer, the lateral service which is a part of this, the timing is important to Mr. Jacobson as far as West Village Heights. If it's possible to split that and allow the design or at least call a public hearing on those improvements so we can continue on with that and address the street issue as a separate issue. Mayor Hamilton: I don't have any problem with that. Gary Warren: As it relates to the curbing and gutter but if we could deal with the sewer and water, that's the most pertinent time on it. Councilman Geving: Can you separate them? - Mayor Hamilton: Can you put in the improvements without putting the in the curb and gutter. Gary Warren: The watermain exists already in Kerber Blvd. based on our construction this year so that's an easy extension into the plat for Mr. Jacobson. Councilman Geving: Can we take items 1, 2 and 3 on the summary and forget about the curb and gutter, 4, 5, 6 and 7? How about that Gary? Gary Warren: Right. Mayor Hamilton moved, Councilman Geving seconded to table discussion of the feasibility study items for West Village Heights dealing with curb and gutter until the next Council meeting on April 20, 1987. All voted in favor of • tabling the item and motion carried. 23 • • I City Council Meeting - May 4, 1987 Mayor Hamilton: I think that whole thing needs to be looked at and consider having an areawide assessment. Everybody uses that road. I would like to look at some alternatives there instead of nailing the people we are. It's not just Rick. It's all the others tood. Everybody else in here, Village Townhomes, the James Company, they are picking up a part of what we apparently screwed up in Chan Vista. Councilman Geving: Maybe there's a timing issue here also. This doesn't have to be done this year. This doesn't have to be done ever next year if we want to go with State Aid dollars. Gary Warren: We're going to be installing watermain and sanitary sewer in the west drainageway on the road so there will be some efficiencies in doing it at the same time but it doesn't have to be. Mayor Hamilton: Wasn't there also a question of fill that was going to be needed along the roadway when you put in the curbs? Don Ashworth: We'll respond to your questions. Mayor Hamilton: Can we table this again or does it need to be passed with conditions? Don Ashworth: You should be accepting the feasibilty study and order a public hearing. At the public hearing we will address the questions you brought up today. Resolution #87-39: Councilman Johnson moved, Mayor Hamilton seconded to accept the feasibility study for curb and gutter improvements on Kerber Boulevard and set a public hearing date of May 18, 1987. All voted in favor and motion carried. ACCEPT FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR SEWER AND WATER IMPROVEMENTS ON CHURCH ROAD. + � Gary Warren: Church Road basically should be somewhat fresh in your minds from our original petition of four weeks ago. I guess we'll be looking for the same answer here. Just to accept the feasibilty studay and call a public hearing. The residents as youselves have not had a chance to really give us any input seeing we have just recently received this feasibility study so we for sure want to sit down with them and go through alternatives and any other alternatives that might pop up. Basically the request was a result of the forcemain being constructed by the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission. We wanted to take a look at the advantage to the local residents in reduced assessments since the roadway itself would be replaced to our present standards as a part of it. The feasibility study shows several alternatives that were discussed. One of them was to get a handle of what the value of that road replacement was and roughly the report estimated about $32,000.00 was the improvement. The Commission would reinstall the roadway based on the cross section out there. Not curb and gutter. If we would want that, we would have to pay ourselves and then look at the assessment area. To get a handle on the area here, the consultant looked at planning and engineering did a take a look 61 City Council Meeting - May 4, 1987 at the Gary Carlson property here just to see how many units we might be able to feasibly look at as far as abosrbing the costs of assessments as well as the rest of the properties. The Wanous property, Harry Campbell, Jim Frizell and Kerber property. I know several of the residents are here tonight and again, we haven't had a chance to sit down with them. We looked at two sanitary sewer options. Basically, the petition that the Council received was from the Wanous and Campbell properties and it is feasible to just install sanitary sewer from the Campbell property up to north of West 62nd Street. The elevations and topography actually do not allow us to go any further with that sewer to service the Carlson, Frizell properites so this is one _ alternative. This is feasible to service sanitary sewer just for those two properties. The second alternative, if we were going to provide the sanitary sewer service for the entire area would require this alternative which basically, in order to be low enough to service the properties here and the Carlson property, we would come over here and hook into our existing system over here on the cartpath. Then the watermain option that we looked at and there is another alternative the consultant has since had a chance to look at, would be basically jacking underneath TH 7 and servicing the properties via that. We do have a watermain on the cathcart area on the west side which .,again the consultant has recently looked at and it is another possibility. The alternatives are presented in the report. I guess the alternative that most directly meets the sanitary sewer question and the septic system question was Exhibit L in the report and it talked about total assessments of about $65,800.00. Mayor Hamilton: That wasn't what they asked for. Gary Warren: The petition that was requested was from Wanous and Campbell. Mayor Hamilton: The suggestion was that they not put water in as I recall. Look at the feasibility of sewer and not necessarily the water. Gary Warren: Right. They were interested in what the water would cost but this strictly is sanitary sewer. No further improvements to the roadway. Just let the Commission put back basically what was there. That is what this represents. The rest of the scenarios that are in the report take a little more time to digest but they go all the way up to complete installation of water, sanitary sewer for the whole area and curb and gutter roadway improvements. That's the largest alternative. I think the consultant has done a good job in dealing with, although it's a small project it's got a lot . of challenges in figuring it out. Mayor Hamilton: Westwood does a good job. Councilman Geving: I was impressed with your work here. You did a nice job of it. Very straight forward. Resolution #87-40: Mayor Hamilton moved, Councilman Geving seconded to accept the feasibility study for sewer and water improvements for Church Road and set a public hearing date of May 18, 1987. All voted in favor and motion carried. 62 ,, - O CITY OF C 7 I li 7 • i k I ssEN ,\t,,,%. 7 690 COULTER DRIVE • P.O.

This would be accomplished by connecting to the Shorewood Interceptor on West 62nd Street (see Exhibit G) . Since that time, Mr. Gary Carlson has continued to petition the City in an attempt to pro- vide sewer and water across his proposed development, i.e. Lots 3 and 4, Schmid' s Addition (see attached letter) . In reviewing this with our consultant, we have arrived at a revised alternative which perhaps addresses service to Wanous and Campbell as well as the Carlson property. As shown on Exhibit L-2 , this would be accomplished by reversing the flow of the sewer and bringing it across Lot 4 of the Carlson property. As documented in his letter, Mr. Carlson is completely in favor of this alternative and is willing to provide all easements at no cost to the City and accept the costs for sewer and water along his property. This could, in fact, result in a reduction in the assessments to the City of Shorewood, Wanous, and Campbell prop- erties as identified in Attachment #4 . In addition, this alter- nate, unlike Exhibit G, would allow for extension of sanitary sewer in the future to service the south-end properties of Church Road should this become necessary. Since the Carlson property has not been platted at this point, the City needs some assurances that will bind Mr. Carlson to the providing of easements and likewise payment of the costs of the sewer and water across his property. The City Attorney has pre- pared the enclosed agreement to address this concern. It is therefore requested that the City Council approve this revised alternative for sewer service to the area contingent on Mr. Carlson entering into the attached agreement with the City and guaranteeing that the assessments to the City of Shorewood, t Mr. Don Ashworth June 12, 1987 Page 2 Wanous, and Campbell properties will not be any greater than that originally approved in the previous scenario, i .e. Exhibit G, attached.
