MEMORANDUM
TO: Park and Recreation Commission and Staff
FROM: Mark Koegler ~
DATE: December 6, 1989
SUBJECT: Bandimere Park
Enclosed, please find two concept plans for Bandimere Park. Until
recently, all planning work for this park has been in a preliminary
form pending completion of topography for the site. The informa-
tion now available includes accurate contours, the pipeline center
alignment and pipeline elevations.
The Williams pipeline traverses the site from the southeast to the
northwest. In general, the pipe lies 3611 below the surface and has .
a maximum depth of 4211. Because the pipe bisects the site, it has
a substantial impact on park development options.
Two concept plans including preliminary grading have been prepared
for Bandimere Park. Alternate A is essentially the same plan that
was approved by the Park Commission in concept form for further
review. This scheme has a major impact on the pipeline and would
require modification of the pipe's vertical alignment. The Babe
Ruth field on the south side of the park would be constructed on
8 feet of fill (maximum) and the Babe Ruth field on the north would
require up to 6 feet of cut. At this time, the willingness of
Williams Pipeline Company to adjust the line and the corresponding
cost to the city are unknowns. Williams will only react to a plan
after it has been formally submitted to their engineering depart-
ment in Tulsa.
Because of Alternate A's impact on the pipeline, a second alternate
was prepared to minimize impact on the line while providing the
same facilities. Alternate B provides the four ball fields in a
scattered arrangement rather than the IIwheel" configuration on
Alternate A. Plan B also contains soccer fields that are slightly
smaller but still within the range of normal sized fields. The
major feature of Alternate B is that it would only minimally impact
the pipeline easement and would not disturb the pipe itself.
Presumably, this plan would be more acceptable to Williams due to
it's negligible impact. Both concept plans have adequate space for .
all of the uses associated with the ball fields including conces-
sions, warm-up areas, dugouts, spectator seating etc.

BACKGROUND
The Park and Recreation Commission reviewed a plan for this site
in June of 1989, which did not get final approval. This proposal
revises that plan from 100 acres to 20, and includes only two
lots.
The Park and Recreation Commission recommended at that time to
accept park and trail dedication fees in lieu of parkland and
trail construction and that a trail easement along the south and
east property lines from Crimson Bay Road to Hwy. 41. (See
attached report and minutes.)
As this plan no longer includes the large 80 acre parcel, a con-
nection cannot be made from Crimson Bay Road to Hwy. 41 at this
time. However, a section of that trail alignment can be pre-
served with this development. Planning and Engineering are
exploring two street options on this site. The first would con-
nect Crimson Bay Road to Lake Drive. However, this would
increase the amount of traffic through these neighborhoods to
Hwy. 5, which is not desirable. The second option would put a
street between the two lots that would connect to future develop- .
ment to the east and north of this sight.
Recommendation
Staff feels that the trail connection should be made along the
street as much as possible. If the first scenario is opted for,
then the trail should run through Lot 2 along the street, and
along the east boundary of Lot 1. If the street goes between the
two lots, then the previous recommendation regarding the trail
should stand; along the south boundary from Crimson Bay Road to
the southeast corner of Lot 2 and along the east boundary of lots
1 and 2.

Park and Recreation Commission
June 13, 1989
Page 2
BACKGROUND
This proposal currently lies outside the MUSA Line and therefore
only includes three lots and an outlot on the 100 acre site. There
are two things to consider as the Park and Recreation Commission
reviews this site plan; neighborhood park needs and community
park needs.
The 79 acre outlot will likely develop at the time city services
are available. If a typical urban development is pursued, the
outlot could produce approximately 200 homes, rendering the need
for 7-8 acres of parkland. If such were to occur, the City
should acquire the parkland through the development process.
As per the recent park needs study provided by Mark Koegler, a
community park will be needed in western Chanhassen before the
City is fully developed. Mr. Koegler's study calls for 60+ acres
of community parkland, in the west part of Chanhassen in addition
to Lake Ann Park and the south park site. What needs to be
determined is whether or not this site is the site to be pursued.
Recommendation
It is the recommendation of this office to accept park and trail
dedication fees for this development in lieu of parkland and
trail construction, and to require a trail easement straight
north from Crimson Bay Road to Tanadoona Drive. It is also
recommended that neighborhood park needs to be considered at the
time further development is proposed.

Park and Rec Commission Meeting
June 13, 1989 - Page 11
.
Lash: So you're looking for a motion to get park dedication?
Sietsema: Right.
Hasek moved, Lash seconded that the Park and Recreation Commission
recommend to accept park and trail dedication fees in lieu of land and
trail construction for Vineland Forest. All voted in favor and the motion
carried.
SITE PLAN REVIEW, MINNEWASHTA FARMS.
Sietsema: This site is located just off of TH 41 about a half mile north
of TH 5. North of the Crimson Bay development and south of Camp Tanadoona.
It's a 100 acre site and they're proposing to split it into 3 lots and an
outlot. The big item here is that it is outside the sewered area so they
have to go with the 1 per 10 with 2 1/2 minimum lot size. That's why they
have the one big lot. Staff feels that their intention is to further
develop that larger piece at the time that the MUSA line changes and
includes that piece of property. So if we take this item alone as it
stands, as it is proposed, staff would recommend that we accept fees in
lieu of park dedication and that we connect the trail that's along Crimson
.Bay as the trail plan shows, goes along straight through that development.
The other thing to consider, if you recall in Mark Koegler's report that we
recently reviewed, it calls for community parkland in the western part of
Chanhassen. We're not going to get a large piece of property in western
Chanhassen any further west than this I don't think because the area on the
west of Lake Minnewashta is pretty much smaller lot sizes. So I think that
in the long term plan, that the Comprehensive Plan, we'may want to consider
amending it to include this as a western, I don't know if any of you went
out to look at it. I know Larry did and I did and I think there's enough
topography there to work with for a community type park and there's some
natural areas on it that would make it very amenable to a community park.
I don't mean to say that we want to identify this now for sure and forever
and ever amen that this is going to be the parkland that we're going to
acquire. As other things come up and we look further, there maybe other
spots that we want to look at also but if we amend the land use plan to
include this 79 acres as potential community parkland, w~ hav~ to sign off
on it before they can develop it. They have to come before us and we sign
off on it which is similiar to the other item we just reviewed. I think
that might be in our best interest to do that.
Schroers: Another nice thing about it is is that the majority of this area
is a cornfield right now so it is already cleared so we don't have to cut
down a bunch of nice vegetation.
Boyt: It's pretty rolling in there isn't it?
eschroers: Yes, it's rolling.
Sietsema: It's actually a pretty piece.
Park and Rec Commission Meeting
June 13, 1989 - Page 12
.
Boyt: Yes it is. I've been out there.
Hasek: When the trail comes up, is this Crimson Bay road at the bottom
here?
Sietsema: Yes.
Hasek: It shows on here, it looks right an awful narrow right-of-way. Is
it actually wider than that in reality? Is it a normal 50 or 60 foot
right-of-way? This one looks awfully narrow to me.
Sietsema: I think that it's your typical residential type because it ends
in a cul-de-sac right now so it would probably be 50.
Hasek: Are you suggesting that we would connect that to the road that's
just to the north of it then?
Sietsema: Not to the road. We would want...
Hasek: To go west or east along that property line into the larger piece?
Sietsema: No, I'm suggesting for the trail. The trail plan, I should have
included a copy of that in here. I'm sorry. I apoligize. This is crimso.
Bay Road ends in a cul-de-sac right here right now.
Hasek: Okay, this is what shows.
Sietsema: What the plan calls for is the trail to just go right across
here. See it's really wooded and a lot of topography down here by these
houses where this road is so if they're getting access'down there and
they're approving that, that would be the place to get it. But just
basically to get an easement so we can make that connection up to Tanadoona
because it shows the trail coming through this development to Tanadoona and
up.
Lash: So this is Crimson Bay Road? So that's this right here?
Hasek: No. It comes right now, this piece has been developed right here
and there's a road that comes in that's this. It's act~~lly ~o about here
and there's that easement and that's where we're seeing this cul-de-sac.
This road deadends and this narrower piece is platted.
Sietsema: This is Dogwood and it serves these homes that are on the lake
here. So this would come in and follow whatever access these homes get.
Hasek: I guess I'm just thinking from the standpoint of that guy who's got
that piece of property down here.
Sietsema: Yes, it doesn't work very well with that one.
.
Hasek: Yes. Is there any reason why we could go this way with the intent
of crossing this piece up to here at some point?
Park and Rec Commission Meeting
June 13, 1989 - Page 13
.
Sietsema: What I would suggest, instead of crossing the big piece, because
we don't know. That's a cornfield until they develop or it becomes park or
whatever happens, is just follow this entire lot line out to TH 41.
Hasek: It looks like there's an...in here of some sort.
Sietsema: I think that's part of road right-of-way though because I think
that goes into, I'm not certain but I think that goes into the Arboretum
there. That's how you get access in here. So what I would suggest then
and maybe that's a better plan. It doesn't cut the front of these lots, is
to follow and go all the way to TH 41 and come up here on TH 41 rather than
go to Tanadoona and up.
Hasek: At least we can take it and there's always the chance if it doesn't
work out, we see a better opportunity to take it up to Tanadoona for some
reason, we can do that. I think isn't the intent of this trail to kind of
serve whatever might happen up along TH 41 and get them down and over to
the Arboretum without going along TH 41 and TH 5.
Sietsema: It would be a connection of the Minnewashta Regional Park down
to the Arboretum and they both have indicated working with us to include,
be able to get on more city wide trail system.
. Hasek: What's happening up here? Is that proposal for that higher density
residential still in the works or has that failed? There was one that had
kind of a funny stovepipe going down to the lake. Remember that one? It
had like a 50 foot wide outlot going all the way down to the lake.
Sietsema: If you look on the other one, I think that's on this piece.
Hasek: Yes, okay. That's up a little farther. This is what was
approved? Has this happened yet? No? Yes?
Sietsema: I don't know.
Hasek: Because they had a deal that carne down like this.
Sietsema: Yes they did.
Hasek: The regional park ends in here someplace doesn't"it? Isn't that
kind of the boundary?
Boyt: It's around these houses up here. It touches the back of the
further north house.
Hasek: So do you think this is it right here?
Sietsema:
. too.
Hasek: It took in a wetland

there any plan that we have to try to put a

.
trail through the regional park or is that possibly leading to them?
Sietsema: That's definitely a possibility is that if you got on TH 41 or
you got on TH 5, you could go out to TH 41 and go up and get into the
Minnewashta Regional Park.
Hasek: The question I have is, is there a way to access that park other
than through the front gate? If we were to propose a trail that come in
along the south end or they not amendable to that?
Sietsema: There isn't right now but they are amendable to doing that.
They've indicated that they would make a break in the gate or something
that we would be able to just walk in and stroll around.
Hasek: I would rather see it go that direction and I guess I'm not against
us proposing taking an easement out along the south piece out to TH 41 but
I would have to have to assume that we got within, run a trail all the way
out to TH 41 or the park. I don't want to suggest that that's our only
alternative. I think it would be from the standpoint of people using a
connection from the regional park to the Arboretum more...suggest that we
go somehow through those parcels when they develop. It may be farther down
the road.
Sietsema: The big parcel?
.
Hasek: Yes and you may be right. The most immediate connection might be
out to TH 41.
Boyt: Well if it does go through, here's a line. If we were able to walk
there.
Hasek: These pieces when they come in, they're going to come in as chunks.
This was an oddball deal because this had to do with some... They will be
a big chunk. There are probably some big owners in here who own some
chunks of ground and they'll come in and choose, like this one, when this
comes back, I think this whole thing will go.
Sietsema: So are you saying, what if we got a trail easement along the
southern lot line and then at the time that it develops in the future, that
we would go through the property.
, .
Hasek: I would make a suggestion at this time that we want to connect
somehow from that line up to Tanadoona so we don't have to use TH 41. Maybe
that's how the motion is made. We'll take an easement but we want them to
understand at this time, with this approval...
Boyt: Along the east?
Hasek: Yes.
Boyt: Do we want easements along the southern end?
.
Park and Rec Commission Meeting

4It Sietsema: South for now and through the
the future.
outlot at the time it develops in
Hasek: It may end up that we'll take it along the east but I think rather
that just suggest that we take it on both sides here, 1 would like to be
able to go, I would love to be able to go up to Dogwood but I think to
suggest that is going to cut that gentleman off.
Sietsema: I think that at the time that the 79 acres comes in, we have a
lot of options to get trail easements through there.
Hasek: And again, this Council may not even be here when that happens.
Boyt: Something else we need to talk about is if we're interested in land
in western Chanhassen because the Met Council's going to be moving the line
within a few years and then the property values are going to rise again
quickly and we won't be ready. And we need to find a way to get another
big chunk of money so we can buy some property. That's where we really
need. Like it says in here, we need another 180 acres in Chanhassen for
the entire future of Chanhassen.
Lash: And to buy it now while it's still cheap instead of wai.ting because
you know that MUSA line is going to be pushed out.
~Boyt: So are we going to ask for another referendum or ask for direction
"'from Council on how to go at this problem?
Erhart: This acquisition fund that we started with this budget already,
how much did we put in there?
Sietsema:
property.
Those were for specific pieces.
For the Lake Lucy access.
They were for the Carrico
Erhart: But I thought that we had...
Sietsema: There wasn't a fund that was just for something, no. We wanted
to start one like that but because we don't have the funds, we just don't
have the money in there, all we could do was put money aside for future
acquisition of parcels we've already identified.
Schroers: I wonder if we could approach the Metro Council with something
of this nature and just tell them our situation and see if there would be
any funding available to help us acquire parkland for future needs.
Boyt: 1 think we need to approach our Council first because they might
have ideas. We have the use of more funds than just what we bring in.
Erhart: We should schedule a meeting with them and talk to them about
this. If there is talk about pushing the MUSA line out. It could happen
for 2 years. Even talk about it makes the value of property go up. It

Boyt: These people are anticipating it right now.
.
Erhart: Then the property's probably gone up.
Hasek: But that doesn't mean we have to stop.
-
.
Erhart: No, and I'm not suggesting that either.
Lash: I guess I'm confused because I was thinking when we were working on
the budget, at one point there was something that was earmarked for park
property in western Chanhassen and I asked you, I said have we specifically
said and you said something along the lines of, well yes we decided we
better put a name on it for western Chanhassen so that it wouldn't look
like it's just a slush fund or something like that. I thought that that's
'what we had...and I was thinking it was a pretty good chunk of money. I
~
Hasek: I think what happened is through the course of time here it. got
redirected.
Lash: I thought right off the top we took a big chunk.
Sietsema: You're right. I don't have the final in here though. I think
there was $75,000.00 in there for property in the Minnewashta area. I
think that you're right.
.
Mady: The west side of Minnewashta.
Sietsema: I don't have the final here but according to my notes, you
didn't take anything out of that so I believe there is $75,000.00. That
was for parkland on the west side of Lake Minnewashta. Like in the Lake
St. Joe area.
Boyt: Do we have anyone looking for property out there for us now?
Sietsema: No. But the thing to remember that we do kind of lose focus on
is that the park dedication fees are for neighborhood parks. It's not
really for the acquisition of community parks because those developers are
putting fees into a pot to develop neighborhood parkland to serve their
neighborhoods and the City is suppose to provide the community parks.
Mady: Part of my commission presentation tonight is going to deal with
park dedication fees.
Boyt: Well then maybe we do need to meet with the Council because the
funding will have to come from outside of our sources.
Mady: Possibly.
Schroers: Jan, did you get it cleared up what you were talking about?
Lash: Yes, she did find that we have allocated $75,000.99 for park .
acquisition.
Park and Rec Commission Meeting
June 13, 1989 - Page 17
. Boyt:
Lash:
For neighborhood parks.
Well we didn't say that~
Boyt:
But that's what our funds are set aside for.
Sietsema: Technically, when you get right down to technicalities, the park
dedication fees are for neighborhood park acquisition and development.
Boyt: In the area that the development takes place.
Erhart: And we really don't have any money set aside then for acquiring
land. If we do, it's a very small amount right?
Schroers: I thought that we set $50,000.00 into a land acquisition, park
acquisition fund. Did we do that?
Sietsema: We put money, funds aside for acquisition for Carrico, Lake Lucy
access and for the Lake Minnewashta area.
Schroers: We specifically earmarked that money?
Sietsema: Right.
4ItPOyt: And the $75,000.00 needs to go to a neighborhood park.
Schroers: I thought that we established that fund with the idea that there
would be money there available in the event that property may come for sale
like in western Chanhassen or around Lake Minnewashta.
Sietsema: And there is.
Schroers: These other areas, then we can't...
Sietsema: There's three funds. There's one for the Lake Minnewashta area.
One for Lake Lucy access and one for Carrico.
Boyt: What we're saying is, after reading Mark's report it's apparent to
us again that we need to be looking for more community parkland. We can't
use our funds for that.
. .
Lash: The we shouldn't have this earmarked for it.
Boyt: $75,000.00 will buy a small neighborhood park. It won't buy a park
like Bandimere Park like we just did.
Sietsema: Typically community parkland is acquired through the referendum
process, LAWCON grant process. That's how we acquired Lake Ann Park is
through referendum and through LAWCON and dedication as well and outright
purchase so we could ask the City Council to set aside funds out of the
.general fund for parkland purchase or we could recommend to them that we
think that there needs to be another referendum at some point in time for
the acquisition of parkland in these areas that are going to be deficient
Park and Rec Commission Meeting
June 13, 1989 - Page 18
given that if we don't do it now, it's going to be much more expensive 20
years from now.
.
Hasek: I think if we do decide that that's the route we want to take," I
think we ought to sit down with the Council and talk about it before we run
into any kind of...
Sietsema: I think so too. I think so too. I just wanted to bring to your
attention that this is a piece of property that is the right size and the
right topography, just looking at it has the look. Has the right look for
a community park in western Chanhassen.
Lash: Is this property north up there developed between here and the
regional park?
Sietsema: That's Camp Tanadoona. It's a Girl Scout camp.
Lash: All of this?
Boyt: Part of it is privately owned between these houses and the lake.
Lash: But there would be no lakeshore available?
Sietsema: No.
Schroers: At our last meeting with the City Council we did touch on
acquisition. I don't remember exactly if there was an outcome.
..
Boyt: It's probably time to be more specific and maybe send them Mark's
report ahead of time.
Sietsema: I think with Mark's report, it really outlines what our needs
are and what our goals, if we want to adopt that type of philosophy, that
that's what our goals are.
Schroers: I don't think we have a choice. If we want parkland, we're
going to have...
Boyt: That's the same thing with our $75,000.00. If our budget is
approved, we need to start acting before that budget comes into being so
that we can make an offer on some property. If we wait"until next year to
start looking, the prices just go up all the time. We're going to miss out
again.
Hasek: And that piece is within the sewered area of the city too.
Western.
Boyt: Western Minnewashta.
Mady: We need a motion on this item.
.
Hasek: I guess I would like to suggest that maybe after some discussion
with Sue here, that we ask for a trail easement along the southern edge of
Park and Rec Commission Meeting
June 13, 1989 - Page 19
~ the property from the end of Crimson Bay Road extended to that property
line. From that point east to TH 41 and I don't know if we want to go
through the property. Maybe let's at this point suggest that we'd like to
also an easement along the eastern edge from the southern property line up
to Tanadoona. Suggesting that we would like to make a trail connection to
Tanadoona before it gets to TH 41 and alternatively to the north and into
the Regional Park along the south edge rather than along the TH 41 access.
And whatever else the staff recommends.
Lash: Is there anything east of this?
Hasek: Another piece.
Lash: I know there's a piece of land there but is there something on it?
Sietsema: Yes, there's a farm site. Oh, that might be this. I'm not sure
if that farm site that's out there is on that triangular piece or, it looks
like it's vacant and the farm site is on the outlot.
Schroers: That triangle is kind of a nice maple woods with pines going on
the highway there isn't it? I think that is.
Lash: And there's nothing south either?
~Sietsema: South is the Landscape Arboretum. Apple orchard.
Lash: Oh, that's right. So we're asking for trails to kind of go through
nowhere. You're just splitting a bunch of nothing?
Mady: The easement is for when development occurs.
Sietsema: 20 foot trail easement.
Schroers: Between TH 5 and the property is the apple orchard?
Sietsema: Yes. And some vegetable stuff. I just wanted to clarify that
that was a 20 foot trail easement?
Hasek: Yes.
Mady: Is there a second?
Erhart: I'll second it.
. .
Sietsema: The motion was made by Ed to accept park fees in lieu of
parkland and to acquire a 20 foot wide trail easement along the south
boundary from Crimson Bay Road to TH 41 and to note that a future
connection through the outlot is planned and this would be done in lieu of
trail fees.
~Hasek: I'd also like, if you would, when you put that together mention the
"'intent that we're trying to get to the south boundary of that Regional Park
without going out to TH 41. That's why we're going north...

.
Boyt: I think if you want to ask for this you can.
Hasek: I think we did didn't we?
Boyt: Yes. You also asked for this line.
Sietsema: South and east.
Hasek: With the intent that we wanted to let them know that we want to
make a connection.
Boyt: If when it's developed it works better to go through the development
and up to Tanadoona.
Lash: ...rather than having it on TH 41.
Boyt: Well it won't be up TH 41.
Lash: I know because there's no property here on TH 41. Alternately I
guess I would like the trail to go on TH 41 rather than having it go
through all these other places and having to screw around with it but I can
see where there would be some logic in having it connect up here to
Tanadoona because then you could go from Tanadoona out to TH 41 if you .
wanted to have access.
(There was a tape break at this point in the meeting.)
Hasek moved, Erhart seconded that the Park and Recreation Commission
recommend to accept park fees in lieu of parkland and to acquire a 20 foot
wide trail easement along the east and south boundary from Crimson Bay Road
to TH 41 and to note that a future connection through the outlot is planned
and that trail fees will be accepted in lieu of trail construction. All
voted in favor and the motion carried.
SITE PLAN REVIEW, OAK VIEW HEIGHTS.
Sietsema: This next item is the Oak View condominiums. It's a
subdivision. We saw this item before as a PUD. The PUO,requ~st failed at
the City Council last night and this is a request for subdivision of 18.93
acres into 11 high density lots for 182 condominium units. When we look at
our ordinance for park needs, if you take the 182 units and you take that
times 2 people per unit, you create the need for about 4 to 5 acres of
parkland. Although this is in the area, it's served by other parkland in
the area, those parks are heavily used right now so instead of making them
give up 5 acres of their development and instead of us overtaxing our
existing parks, I indicated that perhaps they could put in some
recreational facilities to meet their immediate needs, their immediate uses
of the people in their development that would be privately owned and .
maintained. That would take some of the pressure off of the park. Still
the organized things would be going through the park system and whatever
and then they would pay the park dedication fee. Is that clear to everyone

RFSOLUTION ESTABLISHI~ "CITIES FIGHT ~CK A~INST DRUGS WEEK".
Counciwan Johnson: 'Ibis is Cities Fight Back Against Drugs and we have here
resolution where the City of Chanhassen gets fi~ly behind the war against drugs
that this nation has to fight. I think it's a most worth \\bile effort. I don't
know if we need to read this page long resolution. I don't think so.
Mayor OJrdel: I don't think it's necessary.
CounciIDiCln Johnson: But the bottan line on this is the City is pledging to
fight drugs in all aspects and we are by this resolution declaring the City of
Olanhassen as a drug free area and we're going to work towards that goal.
Mayor Oniel: I guess I've seen this go through the process over in the City of
St. Paul and it was brought to !tlY attention and this is one of the i t~ that I
feel is very close to all of us and sooething that we have to take a position
on. Even though this is just basically paper, what we're trying to do is make
people fully aware that we're not going to allow people caning into this
CCA'lunity, selling drugs, using drugs. We're having within a lot of the
business establis~nts posters that are posted !taking those people aware of the
fact that this is a drug free city. I know it sounds a little hard to accept
because of just saying it that way but the full intent and the full Council
I know feels that way and I for one atl fully supportive of this and want to see
drugs eliPainated fratl this CCl'fTlunity. SO with that I guess we can look for a
motion for i t~l 1 (d) .
.
Resolution #89-127: Counciwtan Johnson moved, Counci1~ DiItller seconded to
declare December 3-9, 1989 as Cities Fight Back Against Drugs Week in the City
of Olanhassen and further resolving that the City of Olanhassen will sponsor

attention, CQt~unity involvE!'ent and go on record urging c:."OOrluni,ty groups,
schools, businesses, civic organizations to support and participate is special
activities during that week and to draw CCX'1tllmity attention to this issue.
Furthe~ore, that the City declare our cQ\1lluni ty a drug free area, making this a
goal that all the City's resources will be camtitted to. All voted in favor
and the motion carried.

Serving the communities of:
Carver, Chanhassen, Chaska, East Union, Victoria
November 28, 1989
Greetings!
At Monday's City Council rreeting we will present to you our pro{X>Sal for
the establishrrent of an Eastern Carver County Conmission on Children and Youth.
I'd like to take this opportunity to give you a bit of background. In
the surrmer of 1988, Carmunity Education ar;plied for, and was awarded $.50/capita
state funds for youth devel~t. A plan was drafted and a Youth Developrent
Task Force created. They carne up with a four-pronged approach to foster an
enviroI'lIleI1t in which children are nurtured, supported, and learn to make good
decisions:
l.
2.
CURRICULUM developrent in the area of youth issues.
a RES()lJOCE CENI'ER used as a data base on youth issues and
programs to be accessed by agencies and youth.
3. a detennination of VALUES embraced by carmunities in Eastern
Carver County and the incorporation of these values in areas
impacting youth.
4. the establishment of a YOtJrH CCMMISSION.
The fourth aspect was envisioned fran the beginning as a pennanent, on-going
vehicle to provide a:mtinuity and coordination am::>ng carmunitiesand agencies
in the areas of youth developrent and youth activities.
A carrmi ttee of people representing many groups impacting youth from all
of the oorrmuni. ties in Eastern Carver County have net over the year to detennine
purpose, goals and structure of the cormnission. Wlat we have developed is a
proposal and we welc:c.tre suggestions.
A quick scan of the narbership section of the by-laws will shaN you that
each city, the school district, and the county are to appoint representatives.
'Ihey will be the major funders and major partners in this endeavor.
Our presentation will flesh out rrore of the reasoning behind the carmission
and the details. We hope that you will agree that ccmnunity involvement in
developing the ''whole child" is an idea whose tine has cone. Youth are a city's
rrost priceless resource because they will shape our carmuni ties' futures.
Sincerely,

SUBJ: Ice Skating Rink at Wellhouse No. 2
File No. PW034
It has recently cane to my attention that Park and Recreation intends to
ronstruct and operate a skating rink orrthe City property located at Well No. 2
at South Lotus rake. I am upset at the fact that this office was not given the
rourtesy to provide input to this decision. I can understand the neighborhood's
interest in having a local ice rink i.p their area and would certainly hope that .
this could be accarmodated; hc:Mever, /:t:his,in my opinion, is not the proper
location nor the time to have a rink installed.
;;;,'>
There are two reasons for this conclusion. \First of all, the underdrain system
fran Wellhouse No.2 which drains the wellhouse water leakage fran the distribu-
tion piping and valving has a history of freezing. '!he drainfield runs across
the property proposed for the ice rink and discharges in the drainage ditch
along Trunk Highway 101. I aID very concerned t;bat construction of an ice rink
over this drainage field wi+fhave a tendency ~drive the frost further into
the ground, thus CCIIpOun~ our freezing probl~ for this wel1house.
." 0
"{;'t
The second reason, as u are aware, is that the 'eity Council has authorized
progressing wi ~t.he'tes~~~ C1lld.~i.gI'lWOfJs~~ry for construction of a new
well at WellhouseNo.2's'loeation.i;;'!'tUs is currently underway and in January
the drillingcigwiUtleonS1te.....tc).prooeea,with ..thetest.holedriUing which
would then befollGtled up, if results dictate, with construct.ic:mOf the new
well. With the anountofconstruction activity scheduled.for'"this location and
the accelerated time1ineWhich1lle~e purs~~to.Jlclve}this well on line by
spring of 1990, we cannot afford to~ve .t.htfiFtlite encroached on by the ice rink.
I[s; ~;Iiz:
It is therefore my reccmnendation that .the ice rink scheduled for this area be
deleted fran Park and Recreation's agenda. I am not aware of Park and
Recreation's priori ties for catpletion of the South Lotus lake Park area across
the street fran Wellhouse No.2, but this certainly in my opinion would be the
better location for an ice rink if it is indeed warranted for this neighborhood.

RE: Estimate to construct a diving platform at Lake Ann.
Dear Mr. Gregory:
This estimate is for services to construct a diving platform. The platform
will be constructed using treated timber piling. A structural framework will
be constructed using 2x10 or 3x12 treated materials. The decking will be
2x6 treated wood and will be screwed in place.
After completion of the structural and decking materials, skirt board will
place around the entire structure to hide the decking end grains and all
of the structural pieces. These skirt boards will provide a finished appearance
to the structure.
The total cost to complete the platform is $9,700.00. This includes all
materials and labor and equipment to construct the platform.
The contractor has the sole right to determine safe ice conditions necessary to
support the heavy equipment.
Shouls you have any additional questions, please contact me at your convenience.

Zamboni
As you are all aware, the City purchased a zamboni to resurface
the ice at the indoor rink. Since the indoor rink is no longer
available, and it cannot be used on the outdoor rinks as it has
a tendency to freeze up and must be stored in a heated facility,
staff is suggesting it be sold.
.
The zamboni was purchased jointly by the City and by Bloomberg
Companies for $5,000 with the agreement that they would be reim-
bursed for their share if it was ever sold. The agreement also
states that their share would decrease by 50% of the repairs if
such were to occur. Since that time, we have put roughly $1,500
into it (see attached list), making their share $1,750.
It is the recommendation of this office to authorize staff to
sell the zamboni for the best price available and reimburse
Bloomberg Companies $1,750.
Recommendation
The Park and Recreation Cornrnissidn'Unanimouslyr~cornrnended that
staff be authorized to sell the Zamboni with an asking price of
$6,500 and to reimburse Bloomberg Companies $1 750.

Lake Ann Park Fee
.
After a considerable amount of discussion and research, the Park
and Recreation Commission has made a recommendation on the Lake
Ann Park fee. The Commission was concerned that the fee be
charged uniformly and not arbitrarily. As the beach program is
the prominent "hard" cost item at the park, it was felt that
beach users should be charged. The~ebate was over whether
ballplayers should be charged and, if so, how. Administratively,
it is rather easy to charge the adult leagues (although the
complaints are not few). However, the youth leagues are dif-
ficult to charge as they ar~ traveling teams who may only play 2
games a season at Lake Ann. Registration for those leagues are
not held by the city and players come from a wide area.
Additionally, the players are not charged for field use in other
cities.
Therefore, the Commission has recommended that the fee structure
remain the same as 1989 (below) and that .11 park users be
required to pay the parking.. f~.e, except. participants in youth
leagues. Additionally, it was recommended that the adult soft-
ball team fee include the park fee paid WheI1.th~y.register for
the league.

Dear Friends of Herman Field Committee Member:
Thank you for your interest in the development and on-going care
of Herman Field. As was mentioned at the Park and Recreation
Commission meeting, the plan for Herman Field has been adopted by
the City and the next step in the process is acquiring access and
cost estimates for all the amenities included in the plan. Once
those costs have been determined, the Friends of Herman Field
Committee can help the Commission determine which items should be
included in Phase I.
I will be contacting you when this information is available so .
that the committee can meet prior to the Park and Recreation
Commission's review of the information. It is anticipated that
this information will be available sometime in mid to late
January.
Again, thank you for volunteering to help in this process. With
community involvement such as thi~, we can fully expect to pro-
vide a park in your area.that will meettyour recreational needs.
If you have any questions, please call me at 937-1900.
Sincerely,
"

As a follow-up to our discussions concerning the status of the
Lake Riley Chain of Lakes Project in Carver and Hennepin Counties,
I am enclosing a copy of the EPA letter to the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency closing out the project and redirecting the unspent
funds to other projects in the State.
As you will note, the Managers must now consider whether"it is
advisable as of this date to complete the additional work
requested by the EPA and MPCA in order to secure those agencies'
approval of the Work Plan. Given the continuing requirement that
a public access to all lakes must be provided, and sensing the
uncertainty as to whether the City of Chanhassen will proceed to
provide the public access to Lake Lucy, the expenditure of
additional funds on any aspect of the project may not be a
sensible decision. Presently, the City of Chanhassen is obligated
for its share of the project cost to date, in an amount not to
exceed $8,333.00. Before incurring added expenditures, I would
request that you obtain from the City Council written confirmation
that they desire the Watershed District to complete the work
requested by the EPA and MPCA, so as to place the District in a
position, in the event future funds are available, to immediately

requirements may be identified. The EPA has indicated a

meets program requirements current at the time of application. I
WOU~9 appreqiate a prompt response from the City of Chanhassen.
The District will be submitting an invoice to the City of
Chanhassen for payment of Chanhassen's share, of the project costs
to date. .'
