HILLS OF BUNKER LAKE - FINAL PLAT APPROVAL/2ND ADDITION
The Counc i I noted the Staff's recommendation to hold the final plat
approval unt 11 the improvement project is awarded.
Jerry Green. Developer - questioned the time table for the
improvement project, specifically that streets will not be blacktopped
unt i J 1988. He stated they want the streets finIshed yet this year and
that they are aJso anxIous to get approvaJ and begIn construction on
the 2nd Phase yet this year. He had expected the 2nd Addition would
be approved contingent upon receipt of al] the documentation required.

(Hills of Bunker Lake/Final Plat Approval/2nd Addition, Continued)
Discussion with Mr. Green and Mr. Rodeberg was on the proposed
timetable for the Improvement project In the 2nd Addition. Mr.
Schrantz felt approving the final plat at the time the Improvement
project Is awarded would cause no delay to the developers but wou]d
protect the City in terms of needed contract agreements.
Counc i I agreed to table this item until the contract is awarded for
the Improvement project. A motion to that effect was made later in
the meeting.
HILLS OF BUNKER LAKE - ORDER IMPROVEMENTS/IP87-22
Mr. Rodeberg stated the reason they proposed the possibility of
completing the streets In 1988 is If there Is an early winter, they
may not be able to get the blacktop on this year. He didn't know
whether they would be able to get the curb and Class 5 gravel on this
year. However, If the weather is favorable, every attempt will be made
to complete the project In 1987.
Counc i I briefly discussed the recommendation of the Metropolitan
Counc 11 staff to exclude the property east of the railroad tracks
from the MUSA area (Jul y 1 , 1987, memo from Barbara Senness, Long'
Range Planning, regarding Andover's Comprehensive Plan Amendment).
That area is part of the Hills of Bunker Lake concept plan. The Item
wi] I be before the Metropolitan Council on July 9.
There were portions of the memo the Council took exception with but
felt realistically it would be difficult to get that area put back
Into the MUSA and sti]] receive approval for a corridor up to the
proposed school sl te In a timely fashion. When that area east of the
railroad tracks is set for development, the CI ty wi I I need to make
another request to the Metropolitan Council to include I t in the MUSA.
The Comprehensive Plan Amendment was also discussed again Jater in the
meeting.
MOTION by El11ng, Seconded by Orttel, a ResoJutlon decJaring
adequacy of petition and ordering preparation of a feasibiJity report
for the Improvements of watermaln, sanitary sewer, storm drainage,
street with concrete curb and gutter, Project No. 87-22 in the Hil Is
of Bunker Lake Phase II. (See Resolution RI07-87) MotI on carr i ed
on a 3-Yes vote.
MOTION by Elling, Seconded by Orttel, a Resolution accepting
feasibility study, waiving public hearing, ordering improvement and
directing preparation of pJans and specifications for the improvement
of sanitary sewer, watermaln, storm drainage and streets with concrete
curb and gutter for Hll Is of Bunker Lake Phase II, Project 87-22.
(See Resolution RID8-87) Motion carried on a 3-Yes vote.

HILLS OF BUNKER LAKE - PUMPING ESCROW/PHASE I
Jerrv Green - agreed to the staff's recommendation to deposit
$10/day/house or $300/month per house for pumping sewage if the trunk
is not constructed to Hills of Bunker Lake. He felt the amount was
high and thought if they would be allowed to do it, they could do it
for less cost than the City can. M.. Schrantz stated they would not
be charged any more than the cost to the City. If excess funds are
escrowed, it would be refunded. He stated the City may be willing to
work out an agreement for having the developers do the pumping.
Discussion was an the delay in the 87-3 projects. Mr. Rodeberg stated
the PCA has not acted on either permit. Right now the projects are
three to four weeks behind, guessing it would be another one or two
weeks before they are started.
MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by El ling, that we set the rate of $10
per day per house or $300 per month for homes in the Hil Is of Bunker
Lake connected to the sewer system until such time as the sewer system
is functioning to allow for pumping, that the amount be escrowed 30
days in advance. Motion carried on a 3-Yes vote.
HILLS OF BUNKER LAKE - DETERMINATION OF NEED FOR EIS
MOTION by Elling, Seconded by Orttel, a Resolution on the need for
an Environmental Impact Statement for Hills of Bunker Lake Preliminary
Plat and that it is not necessary. (See Resolution RI09-87) Motion
carried on a 3-Yes vote.
HILLS OF BUNKER LAKE - RELEASE GRADING ESCROW - PHASE I
Mr. Rodeberg stated the road is higher than it should have been in
some areas. Kenko notified them that excess materIal was moved. The
calculations from Kenko's surveyor are not compatible with TKDA's
calculations and it will take some time to make the comparisons to
determine if there Is a problem and just what and where It is. There
may be a probiem in a couple spots where it may be up to two feet
high.
Mr. Rodeberg stated there are quantitIes in the contract to remove the
excess material, so extra work can be handled through the Kenko
contract if the developers and Council agrees. Or the escrow could be
kept unti I it is decided how far off the grades are, and the
deverloper's gradIng contractor can correct any problems.
Counc i I discussed the situation with the developers. Mr. Green stated
they did not receive a report on what the problem is. Because the
developers did not have an opportunity to determine which optIon would

(Hills of Bunker Lake - Release Grading Escrow, Continued)
be the most cost effective (doing the co~rection work through the
Kenko contract or with their own grading contractor), they asked that
the item be tabled until they can review all the documentation.
Mayor Windschitl asked for a motion to continue this Item to the next
meeting.
MOTION by Elling, Seconded by Orttel, to so move. Motion carried
on a 3-Yes vote.
HILLS OF BUNKER LAKE - FINAL PLAT/2ND ADDITION/ACTION TO TABLE
MOTION by Elling, Seconded by Orttel, to continue this (Hills of
Bunker Lake 2nd Addition Final Plat) unti I everything is straightened
out. Motion carried on a 3-Yes vote.
PETITION FOR STREET IMPROVEMENTS/HAWK RIDGE/87-23
It was noted the petition is for 177th Lane only: however, it was felt
Arrowhead should also be included to finish that area. Mayor
Windschi t1 asked if the people on Zion and 179th are also inte~ested.
A ~esident on 177th didn't know. Frank Stone, Publ ic Works
Supervisor, indicated he gets calls from that area, suggesting they be
informed of the proposal for that area.
A resident asked if enlarging the project would affect the cost of the
project. The Mayor stated it is not known, but most of the lots about
the same size; but it cou I d affect the percent fo~ and against the
project.
Afte~ some discussion, Counc i I agreed the project for 177th shou I d
wrap around to include the two lots on Zion. It was also agreed the
publ ic hearings wi II include all of Hawk Ridge, ~ecognizing a 4/5 vote
would be needed to improve 179th and Zion St~eet since no petition has
been received for those streets. If it is found at the public hearing
that the residents on those streets are not in favor, it can be
dropped from consideration at that time.
MOTION by Elling, Seconded by Orttel, a Resolution decla~ing
adequacy of petition and ordering preparation of a feasibility report
for the improvements of street construction, Project No. 87-23 for
177th Lane and Arrowhead St~eet In Hawk Ridge and approximately the
first 300 feet of Zion Street. (See Resolution RII0-87) Moti on
carried on a 3-Yes vote.
MOTION by Elling, Seconded by Orttel, that the City Engineer, TKDA,
do a feasibility report and study for the balance of the Hawk Ridge
area to be done in conjunction with the previous resolution. (See
Resolution R111-87) Motion ca~ried on a 3-Yes vote.

COMMERCIAL LOT SPLIT ORDINANCE/NO. 40
Counc i I discussed the proposed amendment to the Lot Split ordinance to
allow lot splits on commercIal property with Chairman Apel and Ms.
Bosell. Attorney Hawkins thought the State Statute only a110ws the
park dedication fees to be calculated on the value of the unimproved
property, not the value of the newly created parcel.
Ms. Bosell provided a copy of the existing Ordinance 40 with
comparisons of the changes proposed in the amendment before the
Councl I. Mayor Windschitl was concerned that the platting ordinance
and this one have the same wording regarding park fees.
Councilman Orttel argued that by allowing lot splIts In the commercIal
areas, the Ci ty is giving up its control. DiscussIon was on the
disadvantages of allowing Jot splits in commercial areas and on the
reasons it is being considered. It was then agreed a compromise would
be to allow the development of small commercial areas under the
sImplified platting process now being considered by the P & Z.
MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by El ling, that we table the amendment to
the Lot Split Ordinance and refer it back to the Planning CommIssion
for further revIew In conjunctIon with the simplified platting process
that they are considering. MotIon carried on a 3-Yes vote.
T. EMMERICH LOT SPLIT
Tonv Emmerich. South Coon Creek Drive - stated he received approval
from the Council to rearrange lot lines by splitting a lot owned
jointly with Don Emmerich. Now Don Emmerich does not want to attach
his half of that lot to his Lot 4 parcel. Me. Emmerich stated what he
would like to do is attach the western half of that Jointly owned lot
to his lot and then split that newly created parcel in half and
construct a house to the east of hIs own house. Because Don Emmerich
is not wanting to attach the eastern portIon of Lot 2 to his Lot 4, an
additional lot would be created, which is not al lowed under the Lot
Split Ordinance.
Ms. Bosel I sketched what was originally requested and Mr. Emmerich's
new request. After some discussion, Counc i I agreed to the following:
The Emmerich's should apply for a lot split of their Jointly owned
parce I . The eastern portion to be owned by Don Emmerich would meet
the R-4 zonIng requirements and therefore would be a buIldable parcel.
Tony Emmerich could then make application to rearrange the lot lines
for the western portion of the lot and the lot with his home to form
two buildable R-l lots. The end result would be four parcels.
Ms. Bose] ] asked if Mr. Emmerich would have to pay the fee again to
request a lot sp I It. Counc I I stated the actual costs incurred wIth
the fIrst request can be calculated. Mr. Emmerich stated he would pay
the fee.

OAK BLUFF 2ND/DECLARE ADEQUACY OF PETITION/87-21
MOTION by Elling, Seconded by OrtteJ, a Resolution declaring
adequacy of petition and ordering preparation of a feasibility report
for improvements of sewer and water, storm sewer, streets with
concrete curb and gutter for Project 87-21, Oak Bluff Out lots A and B
as presented, pending posting of $1,000 escrow fee and pending
approval of the Metropolitan Council. (See Resolution RI12-87)
Motion carried on a 3-¥es vote.
LUND'S EVERGREEN ESTATES 3RD ADDITION/FINAL PLAT
Jim Lund - stated he already posted the warranty escrow for $1800.
He asked if he could pay half of the park dedication at this time. He
is only platting five lots at this time, and there are 36 lots left to
plat on the preliminary plat. It prorates to $77 per lot. He'd
prefer to pay $1,410 now and the ba]ance when the remaining lots are
developed. The Counc i I agreed.
Attorney Hawkins stated he needs a deed from Mr. Lund to the
corporation that Is platting the property. Also, there are back taxes
due on the property, asking If the City checks on whether a plat Is
filed before Issuing building permits. Dave Almgren, Building
Official, stated a developer has to have proof that the plat is
recorded before building permits are issued.
MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Elling, approving the final plat of
Lund's Evergreen Estates 3rd Addition as being deveJoped by James Lund
in Section 09-32-24 as prepared with the following exceptions: that
the park dedication fee under No.3 be changed to $1,410. Add No. 4.
The Balance of $1,400 of park dedication fee to be due at such time as
the remainder of plat Is finalized; contingent that the deed from
James Lund to the developer of the plat be received by the City
Attorney. (See Resolution R113-87) Motion carried on a 3-Yes vote.
RELEASE ESCROW/WOODLAND MEADOWS
MOTION by E]ling, Seconded by Orttel, a Resolution approving the

MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Elling, that the Council confirm the
proposed ~esolution of the Woodland Ter~ace 4th and 5th Additions
assessment question as presented in a letter from TKDA dated July 6,
1987. Motion car~ied on a 3-Yes vote.
PROPOSED ADDITION TO THE CITY HALL
Mr. Almgren reviewed plans for an addition to the west side of the
City Hall of 22 feet out and 62 feet back noting the proposed office
layout in both the new and existing areas. Mr. Almgren stated an
individual heating and cooling system will be needed for the addition.
The plans before the Council were done f~ee by Jim Hiltz, but he
estimated another $2,800 to $3,000 to get biddable plans and
construction documents. He asked if the City can be its own general
contracto~.
Attorney Hawkins stated that is allowable and only quotes are
necessary for items under $20,000.
Counc il discussed the layout and possible changes. It was general I y
ag~eed that a glass corridor behind the Council chambers should not be
instal led at this time.
Ray Sowada, Fire Marshal, stated with the addition, it is only 97 feet
short of a sprinkling system required for the entire building. He
suggested the possibIlIty of investigating the cost of sprinkling the
addition at this time. Counc i I agreed the plumbing should be
roughed in .for sprinkling the addition and an estimate received for
the existing buIlding.
MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Elling, that we authorize the Building
Off icial to proceed with getting biddable plans and specIfications
from Anoka Graphics for the addition to the City Hall and to proceed
with getting bids for the various work that needs to be done for that
construct i on. Motion carried on a 3-Yes vote.
PUBLIC WORKS/PURCHASE CRACKSEAL MACHINE/SEAL COAT PLANS
Frank Stone, Public Works Supervisor, explained there is $85,000 for
sealcoating this year, which includes $40,000 transferred from the
1986 budget. He asked that $10,000 of that be used to purchase a

50-gal]on melter kettle for c~ack sealing and for crack sealing
material. He also showed the new crack sealing material which Is
rubbe~ized and noted its outstanding performance where It has been
used In the City.
MOTION by Orttel. Seconded by Elling, that the Counc I I authorize a
dollar amount of up to $75,000 for sealcoating and authorize up to
$10,000 for crack sealing with $5,970 of which to be a capital
purchase of a 50-gallon melter kettle f~om Stepp Manufacturing, and
authorize transfer of $5,970 from the sealcoating budget to the
capi tal purchase budget line item. Motion car~led on a 3-Yes vote.
CHANGE ORDER/KENSINGTON ESTATES
<Mayor Windschltl stepped down to the audience; Acting Mayor Orttel
conducted this portion of the meeting.)
Mr. Rodebe~g reviewed the p~oposed Change Order for Kensington Estates
In the amount of $61,033.20, which Is 16 percent of the original
contract, to construct Raven St~eet from 141st Lane to South Coon
Creek Drive.
Je~rv Windschitl - stated with the delay In the City Improvement
projects, putting Raven Street In now allows the contractor to charge
the wate~ lines. Otherwise they are not able to complete projects
because they a~e not able to charge the water lines. This would allow
them to charge the I ines for all of Kensington Estates and Shady
Knoll. The location of the street Is exactly as approved in the
preliminary plat but I t is In a different phase, and this would
complete the 2nd Addition. This Is just asking for the improvement
ahead of the fill ng of the plat.
In discussing the proposal, Mr. Hawkins advised a development contract
would be needed with the developer. If the plat Is not fi led, the
costs could be assessed against the unplatted land. When the plat
comes In, the City would reapportion the assessments to the varIous
lots. That could be done by Council resolution. To follow the 429
procedure, Mr. Hawkins advised the developer should present a
unanimous petition for the Improvements and post the escrow. Also, a
feasibility study should be done.
Mr. Windschltl agreed to get the paperwork completed. Counc I I agreed
to table the item until the necessary documentation is received.

ORDINANCE 8 AMENDMENT/WASTE TIRES
No action was taken on this Item because It requires a 4/5 vote of the
Council. There was a brief discussion on the problem of tires being
piled up in ceLtaln areas, specifically AndoveL Tire Town. Attorney
Hawkins suggested adding a provision that would require existing
operations to phase down the number of tires on thelL premises.
The Counc i I directed Ms. Bosell to work with Mr. Hawkins and the
County Legarding possible legal action to Leduce the numbeL of tires
at Andover Tire Town. Counc i I also directed that they add the

ORDER BOND SALE
Counc II discussed the Attorney's June 30, 1987, letter regarding the
issuing of General Obligation Temporary Improvement Bonds and setting
a rate fOL the assessment roll. Because the policy was recently
changed to allow for temporary bonds for new developments and the bond
sale Is for both new and existing developments, the question discussed
was whether to set an adequate assessment rate to cover any rate
increase when other temporaLY bonds are sold. Or should supplemental
assessment heaLlngs be held If a change in interest rate is needed on
the assessment rolls. Or should two bond sales be authorized, one
tempoLary and one permanent.
Regular CIty CouncIl Meeting
July 7, 1987 - Minutes
Page 12
(Order Bond Sale, Continued)
After discussIon, It was determined sellIng two bonds would be an
additional $5,000 to $10,000. It was also felt the temporary
bonds would provide a better Interest rate. Also, it was noted that
the assessment policy generally provides enough cushion so there
shouldn't be a problem meeting the bond payments.
It was finally agreed to issue three-year temporary bonds for the
entire $5,000,000 at this time; and If necessary, supplemental
assessment hearings could be held at the end of three years for any
unpaid assessments If another temporary bond comes in at a higher
interest rate.
MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by El ling, a Resolution providing for
the Issuance and sale of $5,000,000 General Obligation Temporary
Improvement Bonds, Series 1987A as prepared by the City Attorney, and
note that we would schedule a special meeting on July 28. (See
