Adjournment CITY of ANDOVER REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING - MAY 19, 1987 MINUTES The Regular Bi-Monthly Meeting of the Andover City Council was ca 11 ed to order by Mayor Jerry Windschitl on May 19, 1987, 8:00 p.m., at the Andover City Hall, 1685 Crosstown Boulevard NW, Andover, Minnesota. Councilmen present: El] ing, Knight (arrived at 9:12 p.m.) Lachinski, Orttel Counci1men absent: None Also present; City Attorney, Wi1 liam G. Hawkins; TKDA Engineer, John Davidson; Planning and Zoning Commission Chairman, Maynard Ape1 : City Engineering Technician, Todd Haas; City Administrator, James Schran tz ; and others RESIDENT FORUM John Lvnch. 159th on the Rum River - explained a problem they are having in that area with juveniles having parties on an island in the river. The pol Ice have been cal led several times but have said there is nothing they can do. The majority of them park their cars on the street. The police has suggested posting "No Parking" signs along the road so the cars can be ticketed. "No Tresspassing" signs were put up by several residents, but they were only thrown in the river. It is not necessarily the same people all the time either. Mayor Windschit1 stated he has discussed this problem with the police, and they were attempting to contact the property owner. Larrv Stenquist - stated there are two parcels there. One is owned by Mr. Baba and the other by Mr. Tolefson whose tax statement is sent to Arizona. But the actual entrance is on the Baba property. After discussing the situation further, Attorney Hawkins suggested amending the ordinance to al10w the Council to post "No Park i ng" signs on selected streets such as this. Councilman El ling suggested sending it to the Planning Commission to look at other prob1em areas as well, specifica]]y the parking problem in Chapman's Addition. Mayor Windschitl suggested getting a Park Board recommendation on Chapman's Addition. It was agreed to add this item to the Agenda. AGENDA APPROVAL It was suggested Item 4k, Parking Ordinance/159th and 41, Engineering Report on the Southern Hazardous Waste Site be added to the Agenda. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by E1ling, that we approve the Agenda as amended. Motion carried on a 4-Yes, I-Absent (Knight) vote. Regular City Council Meet i ng May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 2 RUM RIVER RANCH ESTATES PRELIMINARY PLAT Mr. Haas exp]ained the dedicated right of way shou1d be 30 feet using the correct Anoka County Section 1/4 line monumen t for both 159th and Roanoke. When a road is constructed, theCitywil1 need to work with the other property owners to determine the right of way and layout of the road. Larrv Stenquist. 4401 158th Avenue - explained how the surveyor's minutes indicated the monuments were originally put in incorrectly. He noted the 30 feet has been corrected on the preliminary p]at. Tom Grad. 4820 159th Avenue - stated according to the information he researched at the county, there is no easement for 159th past the tarred road. Then wouldn't It be considered a traveled and maintained roadway and improved from the center of the exIsting roadway? Mayor Windschitl stated the city would have a cartway right for whatever has been maintained over the years. Mr. Grad - didn't think it was fair to push the road to the south when it is Improved. Because there is no easement, he felt it should go from the centerline of the existing road Mr. Stenquist - explained proceeding westerly the difference between the traveJed roadway and the section line gets less. The maximum error is at the corner of 159th and Roanoke where Mr. Grad lives. Councilman Orttel stated absent a petition from the residents to improve 159th, the road alignment would not be an issue Mr. Grad - was concerned because he had heard someone was petitioning for the improvement. And if the road gets pushed south, i t wi I 1 wipe out his front yard and pine trees. PeQov Kl iber. 4815 159th Avenue - also expressed concern about the al ignment of 159th when i t is improved. Councilman Orttel stated it may be possible to offset the road within the right of way rather than centering It within the right of way, especially at the intersection of 159th and Roanoke. Also, the road would have to match the existing improved street. Mr. Grad - explained that is how the road sets east of him -- the easement goes to the section line, but the road is on the northern portion of the easement. Councilman Orttel stated the Council has genera] 1y ]ooked to putting a street through In the least offensive dJlU JitUb: L {,;{;UJ1UHI i t;d 1 UldilllE:n' . Me. Grad - asked for a clarification of the road dedication. The developer is dedicating 30 feet, but that is 12 feet short of the existing road. Mayor Wlndschitl stated a1 I the City can ask in the platting process is dedication from land he owns. The pol icy is to Regu1ar City Council Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 3 (Rum River Ranch Estates Preliminary P1at, Continued) take it from the section line. If a pet i ti on comes in for street improvement, the engineers would design a street which would be presented at a public hearing. If any addi ti ona I easements are needed, they would have to be acquired by the City. Mr. Grad - then expressed concern about the size of the Jots, that the size of the Jots are shrinking, preferring to have three lots in the plat r-ather than the four wi th two of them not meeting the minimum lot area. It was originally agreed to four lots when it was thought there was 12 acres. Now i t is about 10 acres. which disturbs him. Mayor Windschitl stated the Council has taken the position of replatting the one substandard river lot. feel ing it is a better trade-off to have three lots in exchange for one four-acre river lot to meet the ordinance and DNR requirements. Linda Sykes. 15800 Roanoke - asked i f the dedication on the eastern line would be on the section 1 ine. Counc i ] stated yes. Mr. Haas stated there are six variances for this plat. The DNR has a copy of the plat and does have some comments, but he doesn't know what they are yet. He thought It wou1d be on Lots 2, 3, and 4 because they are not 2 1/2 acres but are in the Scenic River area. Mr. Grad - didn't feel it was right to allow 6 variances on 4 lots. He showed a scale drawing of possible lot layout with a four-acre river lot and two other Jots and only one variance needed for frontage. He expressed concern that the lots keep getting smaller. Counc i I explained this Is highly unusual, but this is a highly unusual piece of property. It is a fill-in type of development, working with what is there and trying to make efficient use of the land. Ms. Svkes - asked if the small existing lot on the river is bu I I dab 1 e . Her- concern is that the lots keep getting sma1ler. Mayor Windschi t J stated yes, assuming i t can meet the sewer ordinance, because it is a lot of record prior to the Scenic River ordinance. He understands if the small existing lot is left alone, it wouJd be possible to plat three lots on the parce I . Mr. Grad - stated he will be losing 30 feet on both sides of his lot, and he only has an acre. He is really concerned about that road: it wipes out his front yard. Counc i I noted that would depend on the placement of the roadbed when i t is improved. There was a brief discussion with those present on the procedure used for ordering and assessing road improvements, possible costs, and on how 159th may be a J i gned through that area. Ms. Kl iber - asked i f they must pay for both sides of the road i f they own both sides. Counc II stated In this case the City may have to acquire the right of way on the one side. Regular City Council Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 4 (Rum River Ranch Estates Preliminary Plat, Continued) Ms. Kliber - asked how much of an increase in taxes will there be as a result of the addi tI ona I homes In the area. Counc i I stated genera]]y their taxes should not be affected by the construction of other houses In the area. However, the road improvement may increase the value of the property. MOTION by El ling, Seconded by Orttel, approval of the pre I iminary p I at of Rum River Ranch Estates and not i ng the Vdl i dll""o; Yl all Leu fur' Lots 2, 3, and 4, Block 1 for minimum lot area and also for variances on the front footage on the same lots, subject to DNR approval. (See Resolution ROaO-87) Motion carried on a 4-Yes, I-Absent (Knight) vote. PHILIP LEVENHAGEN VARIANCE Chairman Apel reviewed the Planning Commission's recommendation to deny the request of Philip Levenhagen to vary from the rear and front yard setbacks on Lot 3, Block 3, Ivywood Estates. Philip Levenhaoen - stated he found he must have a 40-foot front setback to stay even with the other houses, so he would take the fu II variance in the back. To change his house to meet al I setback requirements would mean he would have the expense of having to draw up his house plans again. He needs a variance in the rear of 11 feet. Dur i ng Counc i I discussion, it was felt a 39-foot rear yard was not that offensive; that the configuration of the lot is unusual; and because a variance for lot depth was granted when it was platted, i t was realized at that time that the setback requirements may not be able to be met on this lot. MOTION by Lachlnski, Seconded by Orttel, approving a variance request of Phl1ip Levenhagen for the property known as Lot 3, Block 3, Ivywood Eatates, for rear yard setback to be a tota1 of an Ii-foot variance to allow for a 39-foot rear yard setback on the parcel to accommodate the fact that the Jot already has a variance for lot depth. (See Resolution R081-87) Motion carried on a 4-Yes, I-Absent (Knight) vote. RONALD KNOTT VARIANCE Chairman Apel reviewed the Planning Commission's recommendation to deny the request of RonaJd Knott, 3479 142nd Lane, to vary from the side yard setback. Counc i ] generally agreed Mr. Knott shouJd not be a] Jowed to construct a deck over a drainage easement, but they also expressed concern over the number of incidents where the patio doors are being built on the side of the house. Regular City CounciJ Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 5 CR. Knott Variance, Continued) David AImgren, BuI1ding Inspector, stated Mr. Knott did not caII or notify City Hajj of the situation or to applY for a building permit. MOTION by El ling, Seconded by Orttel, a ResolutIon denying a variance requested by Ronald Knott for the property known as 3479 142nd Lane, as presented. (See Resolution R082-87) Motion carried on a 4-Yes, I-Absent <Knight) vote. MMHI VARIANCE Chairman Apel reviewed the PJanning Commission's recommendation to approve the variance requested by Walter Johnson, MMHI to use the buIlding at 3017 161st Avenue for a temporary assembly of worshippers on Sunday mornings for one year. Carl Metzler. 2824 174th Lane. Andover - stated he is a member of the church, a missIons church branching off from the Nowthen AllIance affi I iated with the Northwest District of the Christian and Missionary A11iance denomination. Their name wi II be the Bundle of Life Alliance Church, but they would rather not have theIr name affiliated wIth the variance unless it is necessary. The owner of the buIlding, Walter Johnson, wI II also be a member of the church. (Councilman KnIght arrived at this time. 9: 12 p.m.) MOTION by Elling, Seconded by Orttel, approving a variance requested by WaIter Johnson, MMHI, to allow the useage of the bui lding located at 3017 161st Avenue NW for temporary assembly of worshIppers for the branch of the Alliance Church of Nowthen for a period of one year. (See Resolution R083-87) Motion carrIed on a 4-Yes, I-Present <Knight) vote. ORDINANCE 8. SECTION 7.01 AMENDMENT MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by EllIng, introducing an Ordinance Amending OrdInance No. 8, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Andover, as prepared (Adding EEEEE Drop-in ChiJd Care Center. A center whose total licensed capacity is based prImariIy on children who attend on an irregular basIs.) Motion carried unanimous1y. Regular City Council Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 6 COMPREHENSIVE SEWER & TRANSPORTATION PLAN AMENDMENT MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Knight, that we approve an amendment to our Comprehenisve Plan, redelineating the Urban Service Area and a]so amending the Thoroughfare Plan as presented. Motion carried unanimously. BARRY GUSK VARIANCE Mr. Algren explained Mr. Gusk wants to built on Lot 1 in Hughes Industrial Park. It is the only lot in that particular area that has a 75-foot right of way from the county. This is a City-generated variance for a bui]ding setback of 35 feet to keep the building in line with the others. Counc I I generally agreed with the variance, though Councilman El ling was concerned about the procedure, thinking it should have gone to the Planning Commission first. MOTION by El ling, Seconded by Knight, that we approve a variance for Barry Gust on Lot 1 , Block 1 , Hughes Industrial Park, to allow for a 35-foot setback from County Road 9. (See Resolution R084-87) Motion carried unanimously. R. WANDERSEE SKETCH PLAN R. Wandersee. 14260 Round Lake Boulevard - would I ike to develop the back of his property and wanted to know the requirements. He wants to develop 1 , 2, 3, and 4, and leave 5 as one large lot. In looking at the layout, Counc i I suggested the sketch plan be drawn to scale to determine how many lots could be developed meeting the platting requirements. It was also questioned whether there is a logical extension of the street rather than a cuI de sac. It was agreed Mr. Wandersee will investigate working with the adjoining property owner in an attempt to develop that area and get a road back out to Round Lake Boulevard. That would also make it easier to serve those lots with water from Round Lake Bou]evard. No further action was taken. JUIlN i"lé:L1J:J LU'l' :JPL1'l' MOTION by El ling, Seconded by Lachinski, a Resolution denying a lot split requested by John FieIds for the property located at 15787 Swallow Street NW. (See Resolution R085-87) Motion carried unanimously. Regular City Council Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 7 STREET LIGHTING/KENSINGTON ESTATES (Mayor Wlnschitl stepped down to the audience. Acting Mayor Orttel conducted this portion of the meeting.) Mr. WlndschitJ stated in looking at a development with high-priced houses, there is a preference of builders to putting in lighting, especlalJyat intersections, ends of cuI de sacs, and deadend streets. He asked the CouncIl's feelIngs about install ing I ightlng, as It would be relatively simple to do as the plat deveJops. His intent would be to carry it through a I 1 phases of the development. Mr. Wlndschitl explained the eJectric company would estImate the usage so there are no meters to read. The utility would bil I the City, and the City In turn would bi I 1 the residents along with their sewer and water bill. There would be a lIne item on the purchase agreement that the lot is subject to a bIlling for street J ights even if they can't see the lights. Counc i I discussIon was the only expense involved would be the staff time for bil1ing, whIch could be Incorporated into the billing. The question of maIntenance was raised, noting the City does not have the facilities to maintain street lights. Council a1so questioned the wisdom of the City doing the maintenance for street lighting, though it was noted Coon Rapids maintains alJ lighting within deveJopments. Several Counci lmen lIked the concept of street 1 ightlng, suggest i ng the possibi Ii ty that it shouJd even be required in all new developments. Mr. WI ndsch it I suggested the CIty develop a standard for street lights to be used in al J developments that would be a low-maIntenance standard. CouncIlman E1 ling stated Anoka Electric wIll not maintain a prIvate lighting system because of the problems involved. NSP and Anoka Electric take the position of Instal lIng and maintaIning street lIghting whIch meet their standards. However, the problem Is the standards for Anoka ElectrIc are very J imi ted. After further discussion, Counc i 1 expressed a preference for having the utility company maintain such lIghting rather than the City, though they generally had no prob1em with the City biJJing for the service. Mr. WindschltJ agreed to talk with Anoka Electric about theIr lighting standards withIn subdivIsIons and report back to the Counc i I . (Mayor Windschitl returned to chair the meeting.) Regular City Council Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 8 PARKING ORDINANCE/159TH AVENUE Attorney Hawkins suggested amending the Parking Ordinance to add at the end of Section 1 : Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions, the City Council may impose additional parking restrictions on streets wi thin the City if i t is the opinion such restrictions are necessary to protect the hea I th , safety and welfare of persons or property. Streets sUbject to such additional restrictions shall be designated by Counc i I eesolutlon, and such restrictions sha1l not be enforced untl1 after posted notice thereof on such street has taken place. Vi01atlons of such restrictions shall be deemed a misdemeanor. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by El ling, Ordinance 33C as prepared by the City Attorney. Motion carried unanimously. MOTION by El ling, Seconded by Knight, a Resolution designating no parking on 159th from Marystone west to the end of 159th, from a point ending approximately 800 feet at the end of 159th. (See Resolution R086-87) Motion carried unanimously. ENGINEERING REPORT/SOUTHERN HAZARDOUS WASTE SITE Councilman Orttel asked what action the City is going to take regarding the engineering report on the hazardous waste site in the area of the Heidelberger and other properties. He wanted an interpretation of the report as to Just what is on that site, especially on whether some of that property can be freed up for some type of use. Mayor Windschltl understood someone is arranging a meeting with all parties involved regarding the report. He suggested putting this on an agenda after that meeting 15 held. Counc i 1 agreed. PLATTING AUTHORIZATION/COMMERCIAL PARK Mr. Davidson contacted Lavaine Dupslaff of Landmark Surveying, Inc. , to do the actua1 p1attlng process of preparation of a preliminary plat, final plat, boundary surveys, lot staking, and provide the crew during the construction of sewer, water and streets for $8,000 maximum. After some discussion on the platting of the commercial park, it was felt it would be less cost1y to simply use the approved concept plan, reduce i t down to a plat, do the boundary survey and final plat. Counc i I also generally agreed that the p1at should go through the Planning Commission with the engineering firm present to explain the procedure to date regarding the concept plan, and that as much as possible be done In-house as to review, etc. It was a1so agreed to contact Caine and Associates because they have already surveyed the boundaries for the purchase of the property. Regu]ar City Council Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 9 (PJatting Authorization/CommerciaJ Park, Continued) MOTION by Ortte1. Seconded by Lachinski, that the staff contact Caine and Associates for a proposal of the work to be completed and cost for that work for the platting of the Commercial Park. Motion carried on a 4-Yes, i-Present (Windschitl) vote. Council noted the preliminary pJat wi I I go wi th the rezoning to the Planning and Zoning Commission. COMPREHENSIVE WATER PLAN/WELL NO. 3 Mr. Davidson explained the revised Comprehensive Water Plan first encompassed the original study area to the Ilmi ts of the fu J ] gravity system. The low areas were ruled out at this time, redescribing the gravity service 1 Imi t. In establishing the distribution, the City Hal J site was chosen as the center that can be fur the. extended out. That is really un1imited, but the boundary coincides with the 2000+ sewer district. It Is a total gravity system with all storage eJevated. MOTION by Lachinskl, Seconded by ElJing, that we approve the Comprehensive Water Plan as prepared by TKDA. Motion carried unanimously. MOTION by Knight, Seconded by El ling, a ResoJution approving Final P]ans and Specifications and ordering advertisement for bids for Project No. 87-10, for Well #3 as presented here tonight by TKDA. (See Resolution R087-87) Motion carried unanimously. Counci 1 asked the Attorney to obtain the deed to the lot in Hil Is of Bunker Lake where the we II and pumphouse wll] be located. ENGINEERING/IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS Mr. Davidson stated they were going to bid five projects on May 29. They are getting complaints from contractors for bidding five jobs on one day, plus they wi] 1 be late in getting three of the jobs out. He asked to be al lowed to add an addendum to the specifications to reset the date for opening bids for Shady Kn011, Kensington Estates, and Woodridge Acres to 10 o'clock on Wednesday, June 10. MOTION by E1ling, Seconded by Knight, a motion to change the specifications on Woodridge Acres, Kensington Estates 1st Phase, and Shady Kno1 J , specifications and advertisement for bids, change the time and date of bid opening to 10 a.m. on Wednesday, June 10, 1987. Motion carried on a 4-Yes, I-Present (Windschitl) vote. Regu1ar City Council Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 10 ADJUSTABLE SANITARY SEWER SERVICE STUB COVERS (Mayor Windschltl stepped down to the audience. Acting Mayor Orttel conducted this portion of the meeting.) Mr. Davidson explained a City emp10yee and one of TKDA's employees have designed an adjustable top on the sewer service stubs, explaining the problem encountered when the stubs end up in the driveways. The adjustable top is a twist cap that is placed inside the riser and can be adjusted to be flush with the driveway. Several have been successfu 1 1 Y installed. Those involved with designing the stub have turned It over to Water Products to produce; and the production cost Is $30 each, which adds to the cost of the service. Mr. Davidson stated the sewer service Is provided to the midd1e of the lot, and It is not always known where the driveway wi I I be. The adjustab1e covers cou1d be placed on every stub, or they could be sold to the homeowners whose driveway goes over the stub as they come in for their sewer connection. Counc i I discussion was on the advantage of the adjustable cover for the protection of the homeowner, but there was concern over the cost. Frank Stone, Public Works Supervisor, pointed out there Is no other adjustable stub on the market. Mr. Davidson stated they have designed a standard based on the Pro-Tecta-Serv designed by the local principals but inc1uded "or approved equal". Counc i I was concerned with the possibility of a conflict of interest because of the staff member Inv01ved in the development of the cover. It was suggested that the use of a cleanout be required if the driveway goes over the sewer service. The Counc i I did not want the Ci ty to get involved with sel ling or inventorying the covers, agreeing instead that each contractor or homeowner get his own cover as long as it meets the basic standard of a removable cover. It was the Council's intent that they are not promoting one cover over another. MOTION by Lachinski, Seconded by Knight, to establish a standard as presented by TKDA to require an adjustable access to the sanitary sewer stub in areas where the service is within the driveway pavement area, deleting the wording (Pro-Tecta-Serv). VOTE ON MOTION: YES- Kn i gh t , Lachinski, Orttel; PRESENT-El ling; ABSTAIN-Windschlt1. Motion carried. (Mayor Windschitl chaired the remainder of the meeting.) MILEAGE REIMBURSEMENT MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Knight, that the Council approve an increase In mileage for employee use of private vehicle for City benefit to 21 cents per mi Ie. Motion carried unanimously. Regular City Council Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 11 RECEIVE BID FOR APPRAISAL/ANOKA AUTO WRECKING Attorney Hawkins reported the appraisal for Anoka Auto Wrecking will be more costly because i t Is a large appraisal for real estate. It does not inc1ude the on-going business, which may cost almost as much as the real estate appraIsal. He has talked with the owners of Anoka Auto Wrecking who Indicated they are not interested in selling. He asked If the Counc i I wishes to proceed with the appraisal. Mrs. Je II i son. Anoka Auto Wreckinq - stated at this time they are not interested in sel ling. Tomorrow they have an appointment with the appralse~ to discuss the business with their accountant. She asked several questions regarding why they are being considered for purchase and not the other yards, what are the plans for paying for the purchase, can they sell their business to someone else In the future, and how long does the process take from the appraisal to an offer. Counc i I explained the overall concept plan for the development of the industrial park which includes their property, the hope to work with the property owners to develop their own land into commercial 10ts rather than acquire the property for development, the intent to pay in cash or some other amenable settlement up to a five-year period, the intent to use condemnation only as a last resort, and that lawful existing uses at the present time can be sold to other parties as the City does not have the right to prohibit them from se]ling their legal businesses. Counci I also pointed out that at some point they may find the land more valuable and as costs increase in terms of assessments, etc. , they may want to sell i t for industrial sites or other types of businesses. It may be more beneficial for them to look at using less land for their junkyard, possibly having an enclosed business, and the City can assist them in that process through the tax increment financing program. The idea is not to drive them out of business but to make the area more attractive both for themselves and the City. Attorney Hawkins noted no authority has been give to proceed with the appraisals. The work done so far has only been to provide an estimated cost of doing the appraisals. Mayor Windschitl t01d Mrs. Jel 1 ison if she is not interested in sell ing, the Counc I I wi II not proceed wIth the appraisal but wi II look elsewhere for industrial deve10pment at this time. If she is interested, the City will proceed wi th the appraisals. Or if she is interested in developing the property herself, the City can provide some assistance. It was agreed to table this item for two weeks to al low the Jellisons to meet wi th the City staff regarding questions on possible development options on their property. Regular City Counci1 Meeti ng May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 12 CONCEPTUAL PLAN/WARD LAKE DRIVE Glen Cook, BRA, reviewed a conceptua1 p1an for the intersection at Audette's Addition corner to meet MSA standards. Counc i I discussed the plan as well as questioning whether the traffic needs are there to make Ward Lake Drive an MSA road. At this point it was felt Audette's corner should be aT-road. It was agreed to hold the public hearings for the street Improvements petitioned for along Bluebird, 1 77th, etc., with Ward Lake Drive being constructed at some time in the future with MSA funds. Also, there would be no assessments along Ward Lake Drive for any of the other Interior streets. MOTION by Orttel that we hold a public hearing on the Ward Lake and surrounding area street project on June 18 at the City Hall. Motion dies for lack of a Second. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Lachinski, that we hold a public hearing on the Ward Lake and surrounding area street project on June 8 at the City Hall. Motion was not voted on.

MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Knight, to resind both of the prior motions. Motion carried unanimously. MOTION by Lachinski, Seconded by Knight, that we h01d a public hearing on July 16 for Ward Lake Drive and surrounding areas. (See Res01ution R088-87) Motion carried unanimously. FEASIBILITY/SOUTH COON CREEK DRIVE/MSA MOTION by El ling, Seconded by Knight, a Resolution receiving feasibility report, ordering the Improvements and directing preparation of Plans and Specifications for improvements of street constructIon, Project No. 87-9, MSA 198-108-06 on South Coon Creek Drive (East), (See Resolution R089-87) Motion carried on a 4-Yes, i-Present (Wlndschl t 1) vote. ANOKA/ANDOVER STORM WATER AGREEMENT Mayor Windschitl stated Item No. 3 of the agreement is not what was agreed to. He stated the agreement was to pay Anoka $100,000 that settled a11 of the major issues In the drainage district. Regu1ar City Counci1 Meeting May 19, 1987 - Minutes Page 13 (Anoka/Andover Storm Water Agreement, Continued) Mr. Schrantz was not as concerned about Item 3 as he was with the t imi ng of the connection fee. He understood Andover had a year to pay for it after it was hooked up. Councilman Lachinski was concerned about the Hold Harmless clause. Counc i I agreed to approve the agreement subject to the Mayor and Mr. Schrantz negotiating those items with the City of Anoka. MOTION by El ling, Seconded by Knight, authorizing the Mayor and City Administrator to sign the agreement with the City of Anoka on the Joint Powers Agreement for Dehn's Pond area after resolving the items of the $100,000 lump sum payment, additional areas beyond the boundary, and other issues. Motion carried unanimously. AGREEMENT-CSAH 18/139TH TO HWY 242 MOTION by El1ing, Seconded by Knight, that we authorize the City Clerk and Mayor to enter into the agreement with Anoka County on the County State Aid Highway 18 from 139th to 242 Project. Motion carried unanimously. LAND SALE/SCHOOL Mayor Windschitl reviewed the discussions with school board representatives regarding the acquisition of the city-owned land and the development of that si te. Counc i I discussion with Mr. Schrantz was on establishing the water connection charge, noti ng the calculations he made for those charges. The negotiable items are the cost of the land and whether residential or commercia1 rates are charged for water. After some discussion, it was agreed to negotiate using the residential rate for water and obtain an agreement on the development of the athletic facilities. MOTION by Orttel, Seconded by Lachinski, that the Counc i 1 authorize the sale of property to the School District 11 for a schoo] 5i te on the folIowing basis: 20 acres of land at $2,500 per acre, $50,000; and that property be assessed as fol lows: for sanitary sewer, total cost of approximately $38,670; storm drainage to be determined; cIty water, total cost of $78,200; and the $1,800 in assessments for Hanson Bou1evard. The above is on the basis that the promised ath1etlc facilities would be provided.
