MEMORANDUM
TO: Park and Recreation Commission and Staff
FROM: Mark Koegler ~
DATE: September 21, 1988
SUBJECT: Chanhassen Pond Master Plan
Enclosed, please find a copy of a draft master plan for Chanhassen
Pond Park. This plan has been assembled as a tool to solicit .
further input from both the Commission and the general public. It
contains many of the features that have been identified and
discussed by the Park and Recreation Commission to date. This plan
will be further refined and modified in accordance with the
Commission's direction.
Please note that the plan does not contain a sliding hill at the
present time. The best location for a sliding hill is along the
west side which is also the best location for an at grade ramp
access from the upper portion of the park to the lower portion of
the park. Additionally, the plan has not identified appropriate
materials for trails. The Commission's input on this topic would
be appreciated.

Park and Recreation Commission
September 27, 1988
Page 2
BACKGROUND
Rosemount, Inc., is proposing to build a 330,000 sq. ft. building
on the property next to Lake Susan Park. The HRA has been
working to provide incentives to attract this company as it will
bring 700 new jobs to Chanhassen and over $839,000 in new
taxes annually.
In early 1988, the Park and Recreation Commission made applica-
tion to the Department of Trade and Economic Development for the
park development at Lake Susan Park. Part of that park design
involves boat access on Lake Susan. The logical place to put the
access would be along the east boundary of the park; however,
doing so would require the removal of a stand of large mature oak
trees. Staff has felt that the acquisition of additional land to
the east would allow us to construct the access without
endangering the stand of trees.
In conceptual discussions, Rosemount has agreed to dedicate the 2
acres needed along our eastern park boundary. They would expect
a credit on park dedication fees for the amount the land cost
them, $24,000 per acre. This 57.75 acre project would generate
$60,637 in park dedication. With the dedication of 2 acres of
parkland, the balance due would be $12,637.
The Safe Sidewalk and Trailway Plan calls for an off-street
sidewalk along Lake Drive East. As this street will be
constructed by the City, a credit on the trail dedication fee
would not be appropriate.
RECOMMENDATION
It is the recommendation of this office to request the dedication
of 2 acres of parkland on the eastern boundary of Lake Susan
Park, allowing a $48,000 credit to park dedication. Additionally,
it is recommended that the City include the sidewalk in the Lake
Drive East street improvement project and that the developer be
required to pay 100% of the trail dedication fee ($20,212).

MEMORANDUM
TO: Park and Recreation Commission
11
FROM:
Todd Hoffman, Recreation Supervisor
DATE: September 22, 1988
SUBJ: 1989 Summer Playground Programs
Summer playground programs in Chanhassen are currently operated
by two separate organizations, Chaska School District 112 Community
Education and Minnetonka School District 276 Community Education.
District 112 operates the program at Chanhassen Elementary School
and District 276 operates the programs at Lake Ann Park, Meadow
Green Park, and Carver Beach Playground (see attachments).
As part of the developmental process which was undertaken in
publishing the new Joint Education and Recreation Brochure, a
number of agreements were reached between the Chanhassen Park and
Recreation Department, the Chaska Park and Recreation Department,
and District 112 Community Education. One of these agreements
was to clear up the definition of an education program versus a
recreation program. It was determined that education programs
generally took place in a classroom setting and recreation
programs generally utilized a gymnasium Or outdoor recreation
area. As a result of this agreement, programs such as CPR,
stained glass, and stop smoking were switched from park and
recreation to community education: and programs such as Kellogg's
LeBody Shop and ski lessons were switched from community edu-
cation to park and recreation. The question of whether the
summer playground program should be switched to park and
recreation remains undecided .at this time since Minnetonka
Community Services was not involved in the joint brochure and
process before.
What is needed from the Commission is your review of the programs
presently in place and a recommendation as to whether the City's
Park and Recreation Department should pursue the proposal of
switching coordination of this program from the community education
departments to the Chanhassen Park and Recreation Department or
leave the programs in place as they exist.

SUBJ:
Allowable Uses on Nature Trails
The Park and Recreation Commission discussed this item at an
earlier meeting. At that time it was agreed that motorized
vehicles (snowmobiles, 3-wheelers, motor bikes, etc.) would not
be allowed on trails. Although we talked about equestrian use on
nature trails, a policy statement was not adopted at that time.
.
Many questions arose during the discussion regarding standard
widths of horse trails, standard base material, the ability to
combine pedestrian and equestrian uses on the same trail, typical
maintenance required, etc.
Larry Schroers has offered to research equestrian trails with the
experts at Hennepin Parks. He will be prepared to answer our
questions and advise us on a policy statement.
A number of options are available to the City at this time. It
is hoped that we would not eliminate the possibility of equestrian
use without knowing there will be a problem. For instance, the
City will be obtaining 20 ft. trail easements for nature trails.
As these easements are acquired, a mowed path may be adequate
surface to serve the trail users. As use increases, the path may
be made wider. If it appears the use is at a level that
equestrians and pedestrians are conflicting, a gravel trail along
one side of the easement could serve trail users on foot, while
the mowed area on the other side would serve the horseback
riders. Another option would be to acquire 30 to 40 ft. ease-
ments rather than 20 ft. easements. This would allow further
separation. t
.
Staff feels that it is appropriate in this case to take a reac-
tive approach rather than pro-active. It would seem presumptuous
to eliminate a valid use of our trail system before knowing there
is a problem.

Therefore, it is the recommendation of this office to adopt a
policy to allow equestrian use on non-paved nature trails and to
prohibit any motorized vehicles. This would be a policy adopted
by the Park and Recreation Commission for inclusion in the trail
section of the Comprehensive Plan.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Chanhassen Park and Recreation Commission
FROM: Todd Hoffman, Recreation Supervisor j1Af
DATE: September 22, 1988
SUBJ: Oktoberfest
.
Planning for the upcoming Oktoberfest is complete with the
exception of recruitment of all the volunteers necessary to pre-
pare and serve the concessions and to staff the beer garden. The
development of Oktoberfest came about because of a number of fac-
tors; number one being we needed an opportunity to show the
fireworks display which was cancelled during the 4th of July
Celebration. Additionally, it was felt that an opportunity for
the residents to congregate in the newly completed downtown area
for a social event would be beneficial in raising morale
after a grueling summer of continuous construction. This is a
new special event for the City and promises to be both fun and
exciting. Thoughts of continuing this event in future years are
pending, awaiting the response and input of the participants.
Initially the Chanhassen Rotary was approached to help sponsor
this event. Their response was somewhat light-hearted, however.
Some members felt that after being involved with both the 4th of
July Celebration and District Softball Tournament, a break was
necessary. Being on a short time scale, it was decided that City
staff, along with other volunteers, would be capable of handling
the work load of putting this event together. The response from
both the Public Works Department personnel and Administrative
staff has been positive. This is an excellent opportunity for
members of the Commission to get involved in a community func-
tion; providing you the chance to meet and get acquainted
with City staff, other Board members, and members of the com-
munity. No specific duties will be assigned. The only require-
ment is a commitment from those interested in helping out.
