games. Mayor Hoke advised the proposed rifle range in Empire
Township has been selected for the shooting events of the olympics
if the Twin Cities is selected. Councilmember Napper, as chairman
of the Dakota County Gun Club, updated Council on the history of the
gun club and the events leading to this proposal.
Administrator Stephan Jilk reported on a recent meeting involving
county and city officials and staff and the University of Minnesota
regarding the extension of 160th Street through university property.
Administrator Stephan Jilk presented for discussion the incident
that occurred on February 13, 1988 regarding the odor emanating from
Koch Refinery into surrounding cities and the fire at Koch Refinery
on the same day. Jilk advised that several months ago he had
suggested to Tom Seger, Industrial Relations /Environmental Manger
for Koch Refinery, that the city and Koch should set up a
communication program informing the city of any occurrence at the
refinery that the public and city residents should be aware of.
This communication would enable city staff and officials to respond
knowledgeably and improve the relationship of the city and the
refinery with the public when incidents like this occur. It was the
consensus of the Council that the goodwill attitude and cooperation
between the city and Koch have declined and should be improved.

MARCH 1, 1988
MOTION by Napper to approve the Consent Calendar as presented.
SECOND by Wippermann. Ayes: Walsh, Wippermann, Hoke, Oxborough,
Napper. Nays: O. See Clerk's File 1988 -6.
Mayor Hoke advised the audience the Council held a work session on
February 9, 1988 and reviewed the history of Hawkins Pond Storm
Sewer, Project 176, and Section 30 Storm Sewer Improvements, Project
177. Council also reviewed the entire scope of storm water
management.
City Engineer Rich Hefti summarized the chronological events from
1971 to the present on Projects 176 and 177 and outlined the
districts for each project. Hefti noted that although the current
system in Section 30 apparently meets the needs of existing
residents at this time and is consistent with traditional storm
water systems, it is questionable if these needs will be met in the
future. Hefti listed several factors which could change the
existing conditions. Hefti answered questions from Council
regarding the benefit of managing a few large ponds versus several
small ponds; the current percolation rate may not meet long term
needs due to additional fertilizers, pesticides, organic decay,
etc.; a demographic change of household population within Section
30; and the responsibility of the city to provide the most service
possible at a given time. See Clerk's File 1988 -6.
Marlene Heinzen, 14587 Danbury Avenue West, stated she has
experienced water problems for approximately twenty years and is
against the improvement projects.
Arlyn Cope, 14717 Danville Avenue West, as a representative for
several people in the audience, cited several reasons for being
against Projects 176 and 177. He advised homeowners were charged
for the cost of storm sewer when they purchased their homes, and the
developer of this area advised him that the holding ponds were
constructed for capacity larger than required. Cope also stated he
was against being assessed for increasing the size of Hawkins Pond
if the enlargement is due to the development of Country Hills
Additions and Shannon Parkway.
JoAnn Cope, 14717 Danville Avenue West, requested that Council
designate Twin Puddles as a permanent holding pond and not a park.
Further discussion followed by Council regarding the Heinzen
problem, the present need to size Hawkins Pond for Project 177, and
the present benefit and need criteria to go forward with Project
177.
MOTION by Napper to approve the plans and specifications for Hawkins
Pond Improvements, Project 176, to include the sizing for the future
inclusion of Project 177 for the total Hawkins Pond drainage
district, and to authorize advertisement for bids. SECOND by Walsh.

City Engineer Rich Hefti presented for acceptance by Council
the feasibility report and attached addendum for the alignment
of the Chili /Chippendale intersection, Project 179. Hefti
presented overviews of the sidewalk extension and trail
restoration and the proposed alignment and how it will affect
adjacent properties. Council requested the feasibility report
include the extension of trail on the north side of 145th
Street east of Chili. Hefti stated if the feasibility report
is approved, he will schedule a neighborhood meeting in the
near future. See Clerk's File 1988 -6.

179, Chili /Chippendale Intersection. SECOND by Hoke. Ayes:

County Commissioner Chairman Steven Loeding reported on
meetings he and State Representative Ozment have had with the
MPCA and EPA regarding reassigning the preferred site of the
resource recovery project to the Pine Bend area.
Councilmember Napper requested that any further meetings
regarding siting of this facility in Rosemount include
representatives of the City of Rosemount.
Since the City of Rosemount will be the host community for the
resource recovery project, Chairman Loeding requested that the
city be a leader in the area of recycling and demonstrate to
surrounding communities the benefits of a recycling program.
Loeding indicated the county will assist Rosemount through
staffing and funding support.
A ten minutes recess was called with the meeting continuing at
9:15 p.m.
Council discussed the resolution drafted for support of the
City Engineers Association of Minnesota recommendation to
support the Transportation Finance Study Commission's
recommendation for legislature to increase the share of the
motor vehicle excise tax from 5% to 35% and to increase the
gasoline tax by $.03 per gallon. Councilmember Wippermann

recommendation. See Clerk's File 1988 -6.

that staff review Councilmember Walsh's concern as well as an

Discussion on the airport issue was addressed by Mayor Hoke.
Mayor Hoke outlined the format for discussion: (1) provide
background review to some citizens who may not be familiar
with the process; (2) have council discussion; (3) recognize
L. James Fortman, Director of Airport Development,
Metropolitan Airports Commission; (4) hear from citizens; and
(5) action by Council, if necessary.
Mayor Hoke reviewed his understanding of the current studies
being conducted by the Airport Adequacy Task Force and the
Metropolitan Airports Commission. Mayor Hoke advised the sole
purpose of the Airport Adequacy Task Force is to determine the
adequacy of the existing airport to handle the projected
demand on it; and if the projections cannot be handle by the
existing airport whether or not a new airport should be built.
Mayor Hoke stated the Council had taken a position to honor
the process established by these two commission; but because
of ongoing studies, media coverage of the process and other
proponents' recommendations have led to the general public's
perception that Rosemount is being considered and in fact has
already been chosen for the new airport, the Mayor recommended
that Council reconsider their present position. Mayor Hoke
questioned whether the rules of the formal process that
Council has been honoring changed by giving so much
credibility to the Citizen League and Serrin /Richter report.
James Fortman, Director of Airport Development, Metropolitan
Airports Commission, advised he requested to attend this
Council meeting to clarify any questions and to clarify the
44

present process by the associated airport agencies. Fortman
reviewed the process of the Metropolitan Airports Commission and the
Metropolitan Council noting that the study by the Metropolitan
Airports Commission addresses the existing airport only. Fortman
offered to return before Council in a few months to provide another
update. Fortman also explained the Serrin /Richter plan advising the
plan was designed by two individuals who are members of the MASA,
and not associated with the Metropolitan Airports Commission.
Members of the audience offered several questions and comments
regarding the possibility of an airport in Rosemount.
Council discussed the Airport Position Paper prepared by city staff
in setting a position on the issue of the airport, the media
coverage on the airport and citizen concerns about the process
occurring presently dealing with this issue. Council unanimously
agreed a form of communication should be forwarded to the agencies
involved setting out the city's position.

Mayor Hoke gave a slide presentation on his proposal for a community
involvement process. Mayor Hoke stated he felt it was the
responsibility of council and staff to empower citizens to be a part
of the community involvement process. The Mayor proposed utilizing
the services of the Minnesota Community Improvement Program which
would provide recommendations and staff to assist in the community
involvement process. Mayor Hoke explained the core of the community
involvement process would be town meetings and that a steering
committee be appointed to help in the planning for the fall town
meeting. Mayor Hoke also requested approval for an open house to be
held on May 3, 1988 at city hall in conjunction with Minnesota
Cities Week to be proclaimed by the Governor for the first week in

assessments for Connemara Trail Street Improvements of 1987, City
Project No. 169.
The administrator /clerk had in his presence the Affidavit of
Publication and the Affidavit of Mailed and Posted Hearing Notice.
See Clerk's File 1988 -11.
City Engineer Rich Hefti advised staff has met with representatives
of U.S. Home Corporation who indicated they want to pay the entire
lateral benefit assessment over three years by means of a repayment
agreement. The main reason that U.S. Homes Corporation wishes to
enter into a payback agreement with the City is because they want to
spread the cost for Connemara Trail over a greater area since the
developer feels that Connemara Trail benefits more than the 2nd
Addition. Hefti advised the total amount proposed to be assessed is
$71,883.34, and U.S. Home Corporation has provided a letter of
credit in this amount as well as the executed payback agreement.
The city engineer recommended that Council close the public hearing
and not adopt or certify any assessment. See Clerk's File 1988 -11.

proposed mass burn incinerator in Dakota County. Members of this
organization presented their concerns regarding the potentiality of
the ash from the incinerator being of a toxic and hazardous nature,
the effect of the ash on groundwater and air quality and potential
health problems to residents. The members proposed recycling and
composting as an alternative means to mass burning. The DCCAB group
requested Council to adopt a resolution in opposition to the
proposed Dakota County mass burn incineration project. See Clerk's
File 1988 -11.
Mayor Hoke thanked the group for their attendance at the meeting.
Mayor Hoke informed the members that although the proposed resource
recovery project may be located in Rosemount, the project is a
Dakota County project; and their efforts should be concentrated on
Dakota County officials and representatives. Mayor Hoke informed

ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS
REGULAR MEETING
APRIL 19, 1988

the DCCAB members of the city council's commitment of their
time, city staff's time and the funds that have been allocated
to attend educational programs, tour resource recovery plants,
attend meetings, commit to recycling programs and to discover
the best solution to the solid waste problem. Councilmember
Napper referred to City Resolution 1987 -17 which was adopted
by the City Council on May 7, 1987 endorsing the Dakota County
Solid Waste Master Plan and "encouraging the County to
implement the full spectrum of solid waste management,
including waste reduction, source separation and centralized
processing with mechanical separation for material and energy
recovery."
Community Development Director Dean Johnson announced the
city's Annual Spring Cleanup Day will be held in conjunction
with Park Improvement Weekend on May 21, 1988.
Johnson advised that over the past few months, city staff,
county staff and representatives of private industry have met
to discuss pilot recycling projects within the county and
specifically in the City of Rosemount. The primary purpose of
this pilot project is to generate data that will be useful to
the city and county and the various committees involved with
solid waste and recycling in evaluating the different methods
of recycling. See Clerk's File 1988 -11.
Johnson advised the city is not a recipient of a 1988 Blandin
Foundation grant for the purpose of the College of St. Thomas
to conduct a study to evaluate the aspects and availability of
energy from the proposed resource recovery project and to
identify the potential use of the energy by existing and /or
new industries. The director of the graduate program would
like to proceed with the study in spite of the grant, and
Johnson recommended that the City extend its commitment for a
$2,000 supplement provided the scope of the study remains the

City Engineer Rich Hefti advised the Utilities Commission at their
April 11, 1988 meeting recommended establishing a storm sewer
connection charge for new development. Staff and the Utilities
Commission recommended $200 per single family unit which would be
collected from new construction and subdivisions platted since 1985
or existing subdivisions in 1988 that are less than 90% developed.
Hefti noted the need for this charge is to finance the city's cost
of core storm sewer facilities such as storm sewer oversizing, pond
acquisition and development and pond control structures and overflow
lines. Council reviewed the map and the list of the subdivisions
which meet either the 1985 platting requirements or the greater than
90% developed in 1988 requirement. Hefti further recommended using
1.5 and 2.0 times the residential equivalent for multiple and
commercial establishments respectively. See Clerk's File 1988 -11.
Council reviewed the list of subdivisions and unanimously agreed
that White Lake Acres, Stonebridge 2nd Addition, Rosemount Hills 1st

eliminated from the list since these developments are zoned rural
residential and are not in the municipal urban service area.

ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS
REGULAR MEETING
MAY 17, 1988
Mayor Hoke spoke about the recent newspaper article relating
to Senator Waldorf asking the University of Minnesota Board of
Regents to delay action on two proposals that could divide the
8,000 acres owned by the University of Minnesota in Rosemount.
The article stated the senator felt the division of property
would help eliminate the university property as a potential
site for a new airport. By the Board of Regents delaying
action on the Dakota County's 160th Street corridor item and
Dakota County Area Vocational Technical Institute's request to
purchase 150 acres to a June meeting, Mayor Hoke felt there
was a real violation of the process that the legislature had
established as proposed by the Metropolitan Council to do an
airport adequacy study. The Mayor also added the rural water
system will also be discussed at their June meeting. Mayor
Hoke further stated he understood that Interim- President Sauer
had responded by letter to Senator Waldorf asking him to deal
directly with Rosemount officials regarding the airport site.
Because of Sauer's letter, Mayor Hoke felt Sauer could be
receptive to the City of Rosemount being directly involved in
land use decisions by the University of Minnesota.
Mayor Hoke proposed that a meeting be set up with a
subcommitttee of Rosemount officials to meet with Interim
President Sauer to discuss the uniqueness of the relationship
between the City of Rosemount and the University of Minnesota
regarding land use decisions, thank him for his letter to
Senator Waldorf and ask for his advise and support. Hoke
stated he felt this subcommittee would have a greater impact
than dealing through the Rosemount Advisory Council. Mayor
Hoke further proposed that a letter be sent to the Board of
Regents expressing the same point of view and that this
subcommittee begin immediately to prepare strategy for the
June Board of Regents meeting. Other suggestions offered were
to consider a lobbyist and to start discussing and formulating
objectives, analyze the university site as a potential airport
and possibly meet with the executive director of the
Metropolitan Council.
In -depth discussion followed by Council and staff regarding
Mayor Hoke's proposals and the feeling that because of the
large bureaucracy of the university, Interim- President Sauer
and other executive officers of the university are not being
informed of requests by the City of Rosemount or the Rosemount
Advisory Council, of the activities taking place on the
Rosemount university property or action and requests by local
governments and committees are being misrepresented to the
upper management force.
Council was in unanimous agreement that a meeting be set up
with Interim President Sauer before the next Board of Regents
meeting and that staff begin preparation for meetings with
Sauer and the Board of Regents.

ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS
REGULAR MEETING
MAY 17, 1988
Councilmember Walsh announced that Peoples Natural Gas Company has
purchased the Dakota Learning Center. This office will house the
administrative and service forces.
Administrator Stephan Jilk advised at the last Rosemount Advisory
Council meeting, he with the support of County Commissioner Chairman
Steven Loeding gave a presentation on the topic of payment in lieu
of taxes for property located at the university research site and
agriculture station as well as other university property in Dakota
County. The advisory council adopted a resolution to be sent to
administration at the university to request the university to
contact the Dakota County Assessor to do valuations on all
properties the university leases rather than the university
establishing its own values on the leased properties. Jilk stated
the advisory council felt the real issue is not whether the values
increase or decrease but more equitable treatment by the university.
The administrator noted that the university is now making payments
on all leased properties rather than just on residential properties
which had been their past practice.
Administrator Stephan Jilk reported on the tour of the Minneapolis
Bomb Squad site on university property on May 5, 1988 attended by
himself, Ron Wasmund, Councilmember Mapper, Commissioner Chairman
Loeding, county health department officials and some university
officials. Officer Dave Estenson explained the operation of the
bomb squad, various types of explosives, plans for the future and
how the operation is funded. Councilmember Napper commended Officer
Estenson and the operation and stated he felt the problems
experienced at this site the last several months are the result of
their association with the university.
Administrator Stephan Jilk provided an update on the proposed rural
water system for the approximately 27 residences in east Rosemount
with contaminated water. Jilk stated in February, 1988, the
university directed that test wells be drilled at the old city hall
site, and by the end of that month, an order was given to stop the
drilling. Jilk advised it was not until March 26, 1988 that city
officials were apprised of the stop order, and the reason given was
that the university's legal department was not satisfied with the
process being involved in obtaining the required easements and
permits. After several phone calls to university officials and
meetings of the affected residents, the city officials and residents
were informed that the Minnesota Department of Health and the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency were going to raise the
acceptable level of chloroform in private drinking water wells from
5 PPB to 57 PPB which would cause the wells to be considered free
from contamination according to MPCA officials. The administrator
advised the issue before the university is whether or not the
university will continue the rural water system when there are no
legal requirements to go forward with the project. Jilk further
added there have been meetings involving the MPCA, County Health
Department, university officials, city officials and the residents
1
regarding this new information with the university advising
that the proposed rural water system will be discussed by the
Board of Regents at their June 9 and 10, 1988 meeting.
Councilmember Napper advised the affected residents have
reached the unanimous agreement that the only solution to the
problem is a rural water system. Napper faulted the project
leader from the MPCA for leaking the information regarding the
new chloroform levels to university officials approximately
two months before the information was officially released.
Napper stated he felt the university official in charge of the
rural water system had deliberately held back the real reason
for stopping the rural water project. Councilmember Napper
recommended that Council adopt a resolution removing the MPCA
project leader from the project and that a new leader be
assigned in order to regain the integrity of the MPCA and the
Rosemount community.

In -depth discussion followed regarding the residents' decision
to go before the Board of Regents, the taking of pictures of
the abandoned well site at old city hall and the consensus of
the Council to schedule a meeting with Interim President Sauer
prior to the June Board of Regents meeting.
Administrator Jilk recommended that Council attend the League
of Cities Conference in June. Jilk outlined some of the
activities and lectures.
The administrator informed Council of recent discussions he
and Chief Staats have had with Mitch and Leanne Schneider
regarding the renewal of the animal control contract which
expired December 31, 1987. The Schneiders' new proposal
contains a considerable increase in fees while maintaining
similar services. Jilk stated Chief Staats and he have
investigated several other alternatives for animal control and
at this time find it feasible to hire a person from a local
clinic on a part time basis which would allow for more patrol
time and better control by the police department as well as
being more economically feasible. Jilk advised a
recommendation will be made at the June 7, 1988 Council
meeting.

ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS
REGULAR MEETING
JUNE 7, 1988
Mayor Hoke presented a brief overview of a meeting attended by
himself, Administrator Stephan Jilk and Community Development
Director Dean Johnson with Interim President Richard Sauer, Vice
President Richard Heydinger, Associate Vice President Clinton Hewitt
and Associate Provost William Thomas of the University of Minnesota.
The Mayor advised the city requested that a formal process be
established where a staff person would work with the university on
long range planning regarding the university property in Rosemount
and where the development of those lands would be in the best
interest of the university and the city. Mayor Hoke stated Interim
President Sauer was very receptive to this concept.
Mayor Hoke further advised the issues of 160th Street and the sale
of university property to the Dakota County Vocational Institute was
also discussed. The mayor advised that Interim President Sauer
stated an airport is not consistent with the university's plans for
this land and that he will be recommending to the Board of Regents
to approve the county's request to extend 160th Street and the
vocational school's request to purchase approximately 150 acres from
the university.
.Administrator Stephan Jilk further advised that Interim President
Sauer supported the involvement of the Rosemount Advisory Council as
one of the sources for input on long range planning of the
university properties in Rosemount. The administrator further
advised he felt the university officials did not believe an airport
on university property would maximize the full potential of this
property.
Mayor Hoke stated that he has been alloted five minutes to present
to the Board of Regents the request by the City of Rosemount to be
directly involved in land use planning decisions on June 9, 1988.
Councilmember Napper advised the residents in east Rosemount with
contaminated wells were informed last week that university staff
will recommend to the Board of Regents that the rural water system
proceed contingent upon the residents releasing the university of
any liability for any claims relating to property values of their
homes. Napper stated he will go before the Board of Regents on June
9, 1988 and try to convince the board that this contingency is
unfair and unjust.
Mayor Hoke reported on a meeting between the city and officials from
Metropolitan Council and Metropolitan Airports Commission. Mayor
Hoke advised he and city staff were assured that the process set out
by the Metropolitan Council and which was caused through state
legislation was being followed and honored. The mayor stated the
officials from both agencies emphasized the complexity of the
processes involved with the airport issue. Representatives of the
Metropolitan Airports Commission reiterated they did not want noise
litigation and felt the university land was not large enough for an
airport. They further recommended that any land use plans for the

Councilmember Walsh expressed his concern using park dedication
money for the new trails they are planning to use around the
proposed Rose Haven Mall. He feels they should be made sidewalks
and not trails. Community Development Director Johnson explained
the connecting trails are to get the public from one area to another
making the trails a functional commodity.
Council directed Staff to identify current trails, potential trails,
sidewalks, time needed to maintain and the cost of maintenance and
upkeep. A policy on how to handle sidewalk replacement and repairs,
upkeep of a designated trail system will be formulated.
City Administrator Jilk informed the Council that Staff has arrived
at an assessment policy for the sanitary sewer extension project,
Project #181. Staff is recommending a presentation to the property
owners first and after their input Staff will bring it back to
Council at the July 5, 1988 meeting. See Clerk's File 1988 -17.

discussion.

impending the outcome of the airport studies. Councilmembers Walsh
and Wippermann don't feel that it is appropriate for the University

would be beneficial and directed the administrator to schedule
the public forum.
The meeting reconvened at 9:44 p.m.

owner, but he was assured it would be completed in July. Mayor Hoke
expressed concern about the timing of the acquisition, citing a
letter from retired Major General Sieben, dated May 17, 1988, urging
a prompt transfer of title. Johnson noted that negotiations with
the property owner were progressing and the possibility of
condemnation had been discussed. Johnson felt the property owners
understood that the purpose of condemnation was to guarantee a
timetable for the process, rather than to impose a negotiating
tactic.

8.94 acres and presently part of the South Rose Park Addition
Replat Commercial Subdivision. The main component is a

lot in addition to a 1.19 acre lot front on County Road 42
which has been identified as a future building lot. See
Clerk's File 1988 -19.
Planner Wozniak advised Council that excluding the right -in
access drive off of County Road 42, the proposed plan meets
city zoning and subdivision ordinance requirements. Wozniak
reviewed the appearance of the proposed mall advising the
landscaping, exterior treatment and the overall proposed
esthetics will provide an acceptable appearance. Wozniak
informed Council the Planning Commission approved preliminary
plat /concept planned unit development plan without approving
the right -in access as proposed by the developer.
Community Development Director Dean Johnson advised the
proposed access on County Road 42 would set a precedent for
eighth -mile spacing along four -lane divided highways, and he
has been informed by county staff that county policy allows
access at quarter -mile spacing. The only exception to this
policy is for access to "non- continuous, low volume" public
streets, but the developer's proposal is for a commercial
driveway. See Clerk's File 1988 -19.

planned unit development plan for Rosehaven Addition consisting of
8.94 acres and presently part of the South Rose Park Addition Replat
Commercial Subdivision. The main component is a 63,000 square
foot retail mall to be located on a 7.74 acre lot in addition to a
1.19 acre lot front on County Road 42 which has been identified as a
future building lot. See Clerk's File 1988 -19.
Planner Wozniak advised Council that excluding the right -in access
drive off of County Road 42, the proposed plan meets city zoning and
subdivision ordinance requirements. Wozniak reviewed the appearance
of the proposed mall advising the landscaping, exterior treatment
and the overall proposed esthetics will provide an acceptable
appearance. Wozniak informed Council the Planning Commission
approved preliminary plat /concept planned unit development plan
without approving the right -in access as proposed by the developer.
Community Development Director Dean Johnson advised the proposed
access on County Road 42 would set a precedent for eighth -mile
spacing along four -lane divided highways, and he has been informed
by county staff that county policy allows access at quarter -mile
spacing. The only exception to this policy is for access to "non
continuous, low volume" public streets, but the developer's proposal
is for a commercial driveway. See Clerk's File 1988 -19.

Pursuant to due call and notice thereof a regular meeting of the
City Council of the City of Rosemount was duly held on Tuesday,
August 2, 1988, at 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers of the City
Hall.
Mayor Hoke called the meeting to order with Councilmembers
Wippermann, Oxborough and Napper present. Councilmember Walsh was
absent.
Mayor Hoke led the group in the Pledge of Allegiance.
The agenda was amended as follows: Item 4(1) Set Rezoning Hearing
Date /0'Leary's 4th Addition and Item 7(a) McCoy /Leidner Lot
Division /Combination were deleted from the agenda. Item 4(r)
Approval of Request for Umpire Payment and Item 4(s) Approval for
Fencing for Diseased Tree Site were added to the Agenda.
Kirk Schnitker, community development specialist, for Dakota County
HRA presented a proposal to Council to utilize tax increments within
the city for additional housing redevelopment. Schnitker explained
there are increments available from the scattered site housing
program established in 1984 which would allow the HRA to take home
sites and other property which are under utilized or not meeting
today's building and zoning code and offer the sites to contractors
to build single family and /or multi family units. The proposed
areas for this program were Rose Park Addition and Broback
Industrial Park. See Clerk's File 1988 -22.
City Engineer Rich Hefti advised the Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency will not renew the permit for the city's diseased tree site
located on University of Minnesota property until a fence is
installed around the site. Hefti advised the city received
permission from the university to install the fence, but was
informed the university would not be able to participate in cost
sharing. Since the city allows the residents of Apple Valley to use
this site, Hefti advised he has been in contact with the City of
Apple Valley as a funding source for this project. Hefti
recommended that Council approve the funding of $6,625.00 to
purchase the fence from the low bidder, Century Fence, for 1,000

Mayor Hoke suspended the regular agenda at 8:00 p.m. to allow
the Council to conduct a public hearing scheduled for this
time.
Mayor Hoke opened the public hearing to consider the zoning
appeal of Grief Bros. Corporation in regards to denial of a
building permit for a 15,000 square foot addition.
The Administrator /Clerk had in his presence the Affidavit of
Posted Hearing Notice and the Affidavit of Publication. See
Clerk's File 1988 -22.
City Planner Mike Wozniak summarized the events leading to the
denial by the Planning Commission on June 21, 1988 to issue a
building permit to Grief Bros. Corporation for a 15,000 square
foot addition. Wozniak advised the Planning Commission denial
was based upon exception to the aesthetic appearance of the
proposed exterior consisting of 100 percent metal sided
construction and the setting of precedent for future
construction in this area. See Clerk's File 1988 -22.
Jack Flag, plant manager of Grief Bros., objected to the
planning commission decision and advised the pre- engineered
metal exterior would require minimal maintenance and would be
more cost and energy efficient. The plant manager also
defended the aesthetic appearance of the proposed addition.
Discussion ensued between staff, council and the appellant
regarding Jack Flag's interpretation of the Planning
Commission's decision. Flag stated he felt it was the
planning commission's intention for Grief Bros. to continue
with a block and brick requirement only. Planner Wozniak
agreed the Planning Commission suggested block and brick as an
appropriate material but also discussed using a mixture of
materials. It was the consensus of the Council that Grief
Bros. meet with staff and negotiate an appropriate exterior
siding to be proposed to the Planning Commission as an
alternative.

were let. Jilk and Hefti recommended that this project be tabled

on the building this Fall.

ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS
SPECIAL MEETING
AUGUST 30, 1988
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof a Special Joint Meeting of
the City Council of the City of Rosemount and the Board of
Commissioners of Dakota County was held on Tuesday, August 30, •1988
at 4:30 P.M. at the Marriott City Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The meeting was jointly called to order by Mayor Rollan Hoke, for
the City of Rosemount and Chairman Steve Loeding for Dakota County.
The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the proposed Dakota County
Waste to Energy Facility planned for construction in Rosemount.
Mayor Rollan Hoke, Councilmembers Napper and Wippermann were present
along with City Administrator Stephan Jilk and Community Development
Director Dean Johnson for the City of Rosemount.
County Board Chairman Steve Loeding, County Commissioners Voss,
Streefland and Maher were present along with County staff members L.
Wray, G. Erickson, J. Backstrom, G. Richardson, J. Connell, D.
Anderson and T. Goodman.

solid waste issues over the years, the city's present concerns
regarding the waste to energy project and a concept for host
community incentives for locating of such a project in the city.
See Clerks' File 1988 -25.
Commissioner Voss responded that the city has always been
cooperative and very objective on the sensitive issue of solid waste
over the years. He acknowledge the time and effort that the City has
expended has been terrific and he commended the city council for its
ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS
SPECIAL MEETING
AUGUST 30, 1988
continuing desire to be as educated on all the issues as is
possible. He pledged the County's support in providing
adequateinformation to the city and commented that working
together was obviously in the interests of the city and the
county. Finally, he noted that it was time to "get on the
ball" with the discussions and negotiations for local
incentives.
Commissioner Streefland responded that it was a good
opportunity to get together on such an important issue. He
expressed sympathy for some of the frustrations that the city
may have experienced, but indicated that the county may not
always have all of the answers either. He felt that the
highest level of communication must be maintained between the
city and the county. He indicated that the city's
recommendations seemed to be reasonable and it was time to
move forward with these issues and keep the project moving.
Commissioner Maher stated that he detected some level of
dissatisfaction by the city on the information and
communication on the project. He felt it was important to
review and negotiate the city's "wish list" of incentives. He
also sympathized with the city's expressed concerns on
environmental issues noting that he shared them and was
frustrated because issues and attitudes seem to change day to
day. He suggested that the county and the city join together
to promote the best environmental conditions for this proposed
facility.
Commissioner Streefland asked whether a basic informational
meeting for city officials on this project would be helpful at
this time. Mayor Hoke indicated that such a presentation would
be most helpful for this "new" city council but to remember
that the thrust of his presentation was to encourage all
levels of communication on this project between the city and
the county on a continuing basis. Commissioner Streeflund
concurred.
County Administrator Lyle Wray suggested that a general
informational meeting combined with a review of the project
schedule sometime in October would be appropriate. This could
occur during the time the EIS for this project was being
prepared.
Commissioner Loeding commented that some of these issues have
been discussed before, and he would be happy to arrange any
type of informational meeting the city thought it needed and
would cooperate to help educate the city as well as possible.
Commissioner Streeflund asked as to why the city wished to
gain Port Authority status. Community Development Director
Johnson stated that there are many economic development
options open to a city under that authority and the city's
thrust, presently, was for economic development.

Gary Erickson suggested that "work sessions" for clearer
understanding of the project and its' technology seemed the next
necessary step.
Commissioner Voss suggested that tours of similar projects by city
and county representatives would be a good idea. He further stated
that when the Minnesota Zoo was proposed for Apple Valley several
other zoos were visited by city officials to gain a better
understanding of their operations and impacts on host communities.
Commissioner Loeding then suggested that County Administrator Wray
and City Administrator Jilk should jointly prepare framework for
background informational meetings and negotiations for development

the city. The proposed resolution would extend the acceptance
period by 20 days. See Clerk's File 1988 -25.

Council several months ago, Hefti advised he requested that
the County upgrade the segment of Emery Avenue south of
County Road 42 in exchange for restoring Emery Avenue between
County Road 38 and the new alignment of county Road 42. Since
the County has agreed to apply the fall chloride treatment to
the south segment of County Road 42, Hefti recommended that
Council approve the agreement. Council concurred staff should
begin discussions with the property owners on the northern
segment of Emery for possible turnback of the road to the
owners. The city engineer further advised the County has
placed more gravel on County Road 38 between 125th Street and
TH 3 and will also improve the drainage in several key areas
of the road. See Clerk's File 1988 -25.

senior center activity room. The last payment for that was
1988, and the request for further funding would be the same
amount so no increase would occur. See Clerk's File 1988 -25.

Mayor Hoke addressed the recent accident on County Road 42 and
Canada Avenue and advised that city staff, councilmembers, and
Planning Commissioner Ron Jacobson have done background studies of
this issue from which many different options have been proposed.
Mayor Hoke proposed the question to the councilmembers as to whether
pedestrian access to the commercial district should be restricted.
The mayor further posed to Council whether the relationship of the
city's residential area is so unique to the commercial district as
to make it very difficult not to provide access for pedestrian
traffic.
Discussion followed regarding construction of a pedestrian bridge
and that the city should request cost figures for the bridge from
the County. Concerns were expressed regarding safety in winter
months, bicyclists using the bridge and enforcement of pedestrians
only using the bridge as an access means to the commercial area.
Council discussed the pros and cons of constructing a fence from TH
3 to Chippendale Avenue and the possible elimination of the existing
blacktop trail providing access to County Road 42. A suggestion was
made to reduce speed limits on CR 42 and to install traffic signals
to allow safer pedestrian access to the commercial district.
Administrator Jilk advised the County is conducting an in -depth
study of this intersection, and the city will be provided with the
results to allow staff to review and make recommendation. Council
agreed that staff be directed to further study this issue and to
make recommendations as to the pros and cons of vehicular versus
pedestrian traffic to the commercial area and to look at all the
options and possible repercussions.
City Engineer Hefti advised the city recently received a letter from
an attorney representing the First Baptist Church of Rosemount
stating the church does not agree to the city appraisals for utility
and drainage easements within the church property; and therefore
requested that the city initiate eminent domain proceedings. The
city engineer recommended that Council adopt the resolution
authorizing condemnation proceedings for utility and drainage
easements. See Clerk's File 1988 -25.

Mayor Hoke referred to a recent article in the "St. Paul Pioneer
Press and Dispatch" regarding the Minneapolis Bomb Squad site on
University of Minnesota property in Rosemount. Mayor Hoke advised
the article made reference to several ongoing construction projects,
and expressed his dissatisfaction of the officials at this site
continuing to not inform the city of any expansion and construction
projects. Mayor Hoke felt lack of communication from the
Minneapolis Bomb Squad officials and the university allows no
control, benefit or input by the city. Mayor Hoke suggested that

the city initiate a process to close the bomb squad site.
Following further discussion, Council agreed a letter should
be forwarded to the university requesting university officials
to close down the bomb squad site. Following discussion on
how the city can have control or jurisdiction over sites
located on the university property, it was the consensus of
the Council to consider annexation of the University of
Minnesota property in its entirety. Council directed staff to
research annexation procedures and the legal requirements.

of the City Hall.
Mayor Hoke called the meeting to order with Councilmembers

Mayor Hoke led the group in the Pledge of Allegiance.
The agenda was amended to add Item 10(a) Empire
Township /Rosemount Joint Meeting; Item 11(b) Bomb Squad
Permitting Update and 11(c) County Composting Facility.
Mayor Hoke called for an Executive Session to immediately
follow the regular agenda to discuss pending litigation.
Representatives of Oxbow Corporation and Biosyn Chemical
Corporation provided a general explanation of their proposal
for the development of an electricity generating power plant
to be located in the eastern part of Rosemount on a site
abutting Highway 55. Brian Chatlosh, Manager of Planning and
Development for Oxbow Corporation advised the project will use
a natural gas -fired combustion turbine to produce electricity
for sale to Northern States Power Company and for steam for
use in a carbon dioxide recovery and processing plant which
will be constructed adjacent to the electric generation
facilities. Oxbow representatives further advised
approximately 55 MegaWatts of electric power will be sold to
NSP to serve approximately 50,000 homes. See Clerk's File
1988 -28.
Community Development Director Dean Johnson informed Council
the county has approved a funding program to allow the city to
participate in a city -wide recycling program rather than a
pilot recycling program which had previously been reviewed and
approved by Council for city participation. Johnson advised
the county landfill abatement program would allow the entire
urban area of the city to be involved in the recycling
program and possibly the northwest area and /or all the rural
areas of the city. Johnson reviewed the funding application
form and advised a final form will be presented to Council for
approval at the next regular meeting. See Clerk's File 1988-

REGULAR MEETING
OCTOBER 4, 1988
Mayor Hoke suspended the regular agenda at 8:00 p.m. to allow the
Council to conduct a public hearing scheduled for that time.
Mayor Hoke opened the public hearing to consider the proposed
assessments for County Road 42 East Improvements, City Project No.
164.
The administrator /clerk had in his presence the Affidavit of Mailed
and Posted Hearing Notice and the Affidavit of Publication. See
Clerk's File 1988 -28.
City Engineer Rich Hefti displayed an overview of the project
describing the realignment of County Road 42 and 38 and the proposed
assessment area. Hefti stated that because County Road 38 is
situated one -half mile north of CSAH 42, that the assessment
district be extended one quarter mile on either side of CSAH 42
which would allow assessments to be based upon benefit to the
particular road being improved and would prevent double assessments
from occurring. Hefti further stated that city staff is proposing
that Council consider a deferment option for parcels located south
of CSAH 42 in the "back 40" since there is no apparent benefit to
these parcels unless a new public road was constructed for access
purposes. Community Development Director Dean Johnson advised the
city's comprehensive guide plan discourages new public roads for
residential purposes in commercial and agricultural areas. Johnson
advised that if the four ten -acre parcels were deferred for ten
years, the number of years proposed for paying the assessments,
approximately $27,500 would not be assessed at this time.
Marlin Rechtzigel, 14727 Clayton Avenue East, objected to the
assessment against his property located on the southeast corner of
CSAH42 and TH55. Rechtzigel stated he has received a verbal
commitment from the Minnesota Department of Transportation for
access onto TH55; and therefore felt access benefits did not exist
for this particular parcel. City staff invited Mr. Rechtzigel to
meet with them concerning his objection.
Residents in the audience expressed concerns regarding the safety of
the hiking and biking trails on County Road 42 and County Road 38
advising motorists use these trails as passing lanes. City Engineer
Hefti advised he will contact the County to determine whether signs
can be placed to inform motorists the lanes are for hiking and
biking trails.
The administrator /clerk advised Council of the written objections
received from Melvin G. Astleford and Rich T. Burger regarding the
proposed assessments against their properties. See Clerk's File

years; that the present airport should be expanded and efforts to
land bank for a new airport should begin immediately. Jilk advised
4

the final report will be presented to the Metropolitan Council
sometime in December, 1988 and also presented to local
officials during the period between mid October and mid
December. See Clerk's File 1988 -28.
City Administrator Jilk discussed with Council the permitting
process involving the bomb squad facility located on
University of Minnesota property in Rosemount. Jilk advised
Council that after meeting with Building Official Ron Wasmund,
that the bomb squad officials had in fact never been given
permit applications by city staff to complete the permitting
process for development on the bomb squad site. The
administrator further advised that as of this date the permits
have been completed by Officer Dave Estenson of the bomb squad
facility and have been received by the city. Jilk concluded
that he felt the bomb squad officials have demonstrated their
commitment to cooperate with the city in keeping the city
informed of activities at the bomb squad site. Because of
this cooperation and the fact that legally a permit and
associated fees are not required, the administrator
recommended that the permit fees for the recent development at
the bomb squad site be based on out -of- pocket expenses only
for completion of the work at the site. Council unanimously
agreed with this recommendation.
Council discussed the invitation received from the Minneapolis
and St. Paul Police Bomb Squad to attend a dedication ceremony
of the development of an explosive storage and training yard
on October 25, 1988. Council referred to the explosive
demonstrations and bomb handling robots to be demonstrated on
that day. Council restated the total lack of control over
such activities and other activities that take place on the
University of Minnesota property. Following further
discussion, Council directed the city administrator to send
letters to the appropriate officials that the city does not
condone or promote the activities of the bomb squad facility.
See Clerk's File 1988 -28.
Community Development Director Dean Johnson advised that the
Dakota County Board of Commissioners approved a temporary
composting facility on Rich Valley Boulevard contingent upon
the city issuing the permits for such a facility. Council
unanimously agreed that action for such a facility would not
be appropriate since they just learned of this information.
Mayor Hoke reminded Council of the Business Forum to be held
in the Council Chambers on October 11, 1988 and the Town
Meeting to be held on the same date at the Rosemount High
School Student Center.

2

Road 42 to eliminate pedestrian traffic from continuing to use
that access to County Road 42. It was further recommended
that flyers be mailed to area residents to inform them of the
change and recommend the use of Chippendale Avenue and Highway
3 for crossing to the south. Jilk advised staff has been in
contact with Pete Sorenson, county traffic engineer, who
conducted a study of this intersection to analyze a typical
intersection for several kinds of traffic information but not
to study the intersection to determine or address a safety
problem. The county traffic engineer therefore was hesitant
to furnish the city with a complete report of his findings and
recommended that the city use their own traffic engineer to
study and present findings and recommendations. The
administrator further advised council that the county held off
on the construction of the biketrail on County Road 42 from
Highway 3 to Chippendale because of the city's concern over
the proper location of the trail.
Planning Commissioner Daniel Huntington urged Council to place
a traffic light at the intersection as a means to allow
residents to have access to the commercial area by bike or
foot.
Considerable discussion followed by council regarding the
safety issues, pedestrian access, staff recommendations and
the county traffic engineer's study.
MOTION by Walsh to remove the pedestrian walkway from Lower
150th to County Road 42, to install a fence on the open area
abutting County Road 42, to mail out flyers to all residents
informing them of the changes, to install a no pedestrian
crossing sign at the intersection, to request the county
traffic engineer's study, to contract SEH to do a safety study
on the various alternatives and biketrail locations and to
request the county to remove the pedestrian crossing markings.
Motion died for lack of a second.
Following further discussion, the general consensus of Council
was to direct staff to meet with the city's consulting traffic
engineer on cost recommendations to conduct a study in
conjunction with the county study of the intersection.
Council reviewed the proposed appeals process for handling
employee appeals to the comparable worth plan and the
administrator's recommendation that the appeals review
committee be made up of himself, the employee's department
head and Councilmember Wippermann. See Clerk's File 1988 -29.

City Administrator Jilk reviewed with Council a letter of response
from City Attorney Roger Knutson regarding his research for
consideration of the annexation of certain properties owned by the
University of Minnesota in Empire Township. In the city attorney's
opinion, it would be nearly impossible to annex the property unless
the university and Empire Township supported the action. The city
attorney also advised that the city would not have control over the
property as long as the university retained ownership. Following
considerable discussion, Council directed staff to research other

Commission's decision was that the Siemers were proposing to build a
pole building to house three trucks which they own and lease to a

a commercial trucking operation which is not allowed in an
agriculture district.

their attendance at the Planning Commission meeting, they now intend
to store only one truck in the pole building and that truck will be
operated by Mr. Siemers. Planner Wozniak advised the storing of a

occupation and allowed in the agricultural district, but the Siemers
would have to request a variance from the Planning Commission if the
proposed building is greater than one thousand square feet.

City Planner Michael Wozniak presented the proposed zoning

Mayor Hoke opened the meeting to receive comments on proposed
amendments to Zoning Ordinance No. VII.3, Subdivision 8.2 of
Section 8, regarding landfills.
Community Development Director Dean Johnson advised the specific
purpose of the amendment is to remove as a permitted use any
type of landfill facility in the city. Attorney Reid Hansen,
legal counsel for USPCI, requested that Council not adopt the
proposed amendment as USPCI felt that the amendment would not be
a fair amendment at this time as the company wants to continue
productive negotiations with the city for the development of a
containment facility in the Pine Bend area. City Administrator
Stephan Jilk recommended that the city attorney be allowed to
draft a findings of fact as to whether or not the proposed
amendment should be adopted.

between the council liaison and staff members as well as provide
more opportunity for councilmembers to provide their expertise.

Community Development Director Dean Johnson reviewed the proposed
contract between the city and Knutson Rubbish Service, Inc.
designating Knutson Rubbish as the exclusive hauler for the city's
recycling program. Jim Weinzettel, Mendota Hts. Rubbish, and Mike
Trulson, Quality Waste Control, objected to the city negotiating
with only one hauler rather then going out for bids or allowing
multiple haulers to participate in the program. Weinzettel and
Trulson advised their businesses would either lose existing
customers, because their customers may want to have only one
hauler to eliminate setting out trash more than one day a week, or
new residents in the city may automatically choose Knutson Rubbish
since they will be providing the recycling service. In -depth
discussion followed among the council as to whether to approve the

program in which all haulers could be involved in the recycling

the proposal by Knutson was a good one and would provide a

would preclude the areas adjacent to Shannon Parkway from
being developed RR rural residential. Councilmember
Wippermann suggested that staff enter into negotiations with
the owner of the Kelley property to ascertain whether the
Kelley property could be rezoned from R -1 Single Family
Residential to rural residential throughout or if a buffer
area could be designated to provide a natural transition from
R -1 to RR Rural Residential to prevent the abutment of 18,000
square foot lots against 200,000 square foot lots. Wippermann
felt that in an attempt to maintain the rural atmosphere
desired by a large percentage of city residents, as indicated
through the community involvement process, that all areas
approximately north of 135th Street both east and west of
Highway 3 be maintained and expanded as rural residential.
Councilmember Wippermann further requested that the city's
consulting engineer for Project 194 provide a means of
delaying the extension of sewer and water in this project
until there is a better understanding of what will happen to
the bordering property. Considerable discussion followed with
Community Development Director Dean Johnson providing
background on how certain areas of the northern portion of the
city became zoned and included in the city's urban service
area.
MOTION by Wippermann to direct staff to research and report to
Council what would be required in order to maintain the
northern portion of the Kelley property in a rural residential
character. SECOND by Napper.
Discussion followed regarding the intent of Councilmember
Wippermann's motion. Mayor Hoke stated he felt a yes vote to
the motion would imply one is in favor of rural residential in
that particular area. Councilme:nbe_r Wippermann stated his
motion is a request for staff to communicate to Council the
process involved if Council would deem it appropriate to
change the designated land use. Councilmembers Napper and
Walsh agreed to a review of the process for this issue and
future land issues.

Shannon Parkway between Country Hills 3rd Addition and Shannon Oaks.
The consulting engineer provided a breakdown of the estimated costs
for the watermain, stormwater, sanitary sewer and street
improvements. The total estimated cost of the improvements is
$1,067,000 with approximately $221,000 to be received as state aid
and approximately $125,000 to be expended from core trunk funds.
City Engineer Rich Hefti reviewed the proposed assessment
methodology proposed for this project. The amount to be assessed is
estimated not to exceed $720,000.
Discussion ensued between Council and staff regarding the legal and
financial implications to the city if the project was not ordered at
this time. The city engineer advised commitments with Independent
School District 196 for access to the school from the north provides
a necessity for completing Shannon Parkway north beyond the school
site to Shannon Oaks Addition. He further advised the Kelley Trust
property was zoned R -1 Single Family Residential, and Shannon
Parkway is the logical utility corridor for extending the sanitary
sewer and water services. Hefti stated it would not be as
economically feasible to construct the roadway now and install the
utilities at a future time.
Councilmember Wippermann objected to providing utilities to the
Kelley Trust property prior to receiving any development proposal
and assurances from the property owner that they will be responsible
for the appropriate assessments against the property.
Residents living adjacent to the proposed Shannon Parkway project
were in the audience and voiced their concerns that the project
would jeopardize the open space nature and rural character of the
area.

Councilmember Wippermann stated the community involvement process
has identified rural open space as a unique and desirable feature of
the community, and one that should be preserved. He expressed
concern that approval of this project could prevent the city from
being in a position to negotiate for any appropriate transition
buffer from R -1 Single Family to RR Rural Residential.
Councilmember Wippermann stated he was in support of extending sewer
and water utilities up to the school site but not north of the
school.
Mayor Hoke stated the ongoing community involvement process,
attempting to identify the many characteristics of small town
ambience, cannot supersede the issue of the present R -1 Single
Family Residential zoning of the Kelley Trust Property. Mayor Hoke

Board's decision was based primarily with concern over the precedent
set of allowing a commercial sign in a residential district.
Kerry Johnson, owner of K L Chiropractic, provided an overview of

petition met the requirements for a variance. Kerry Johnson stated
the sign would be absolutely necessary for advertising his business.
The applicant presented a petition signed by several residents
indicating their support of the petitioner to use the location as a
chiropractic business.
Several residents in the audience were in support of the Johnson
petition. They felt Johnson's interest in conducting a chiropractic
business would cause the property to be well kept and to blend in

Herb Wensmann presented a concept proposal for a commercial
development proposed for a 25 acre site located on the south
side of County Road 42 at the intersection of County Road 42
and Diamond Path. City Planner Mike Wozniak advised the
property is currently designated Agriculture in the
Comprehensive Guide Plan, and city policy has been to limit
new commercial development to those areas within or contiguous
to existing commercial areas which include the downtown area
and South Rose Park. Wozniak noted that although staff had
recommended the city policy should not be altered to allow the
commercial development on the western boundary, the Planning
Commission recommended that the Council should consider
altering the policy. The developer and architect for the
proposal stated they felt the project would enhance the
commercial growth of the city and compliment the downtown
retail area. Herb Wensmann, developer, further advised
Council the project would be completed in phases. See Clerk's
File 1989 -11.
Council debated the advantages and disadvantages of the
Wensmann concept proposal regarding the negative impact on the
downtown area versus the inadequacy of the downtown area and
the South Rose Park for providing adequate space for such a
development. Council further discussed the benefits and
drawbacks of beginning the commercial area at the city's
western boundary as opposed to keeping commercial development
contiguous to the downtown area. It was the consensus of the
Council that the proposal was not an appropriate land use at
this time, and other options should be considered for the
property. The Council encouraged the developer to consider

City Planner Mike Wozniak presented for adoption a resolution
authorizing a moratorium on land use approvals and building
permits for mining operations until the full review of the

advised the request is based upon action by the Planning
Commission to recommend such a moratorium and the basic
agreement by Council to restrict long term mining to the
general industrial district in the eastern portion of the city
and to allow only seasonal excavation in the agriculture
districts. Palmer Peterson, owner of Bituminous Roadways,
requested that Council consider including agricultural areas
in the mining district. Peterson pointed out the considerable
expense and time involved in obtaining a mining permit, and
excluding agricultural areas as potential mining operations
would be unjust to the property owners and mining operations.

Mayor Hoke presented discussion on the recent involvement by city
staff and officials regarding solid waste issues and proposals
received from Oxbow Power Corporation, USPCI, the County regarding
the resource recovery project, and the County's selection of
University of Minnesota property as a possible site for the resource
recovery project. Mayor Hoke expressed concern that these issues
were overloading the time and expertise of city staff and suggested
the hiring of a consultant and additional staff to manage such
issues. Councilmember Walsh introduced drafts of several
resolutions proposing that the site selection process cease for the
mass burn incinerator, Oxbow Power Corporation, and USPCI to allow
consideration of other sites and alternatives for these proposals.
Councilmember Walsh further recommended that the University of
Minnesota reactivate the Rosemount Research Center for the study of
waste, garbage and other related projects and to consider sites for
a resource derived fuel plant and recycling plant and the USPCI
containment facility.
Councilmember Oxborough left his chair.
Administrator Stephan Jilk also voiced concern regarding the lack of
expertise, staff time and an overall plan on how the city should
deal with such issues and concerns. Jilk recommended that the
consultants for the Metropolitan Council involved in the
environmental issues of the resource recovery project be invited to
discuss with Council the siting process and associated health and
environmental issues. Administrator Jilk further recommended that
staff be allowed to develop an overall plan on addressing solid
waste issues, how the city can become a more proactive participant
in these proposals and issues, the hiring of a consultant and
additional staff, and the involvement of the City Council and
advisory committees.

recommendation to approve the plans and specifications and
authorize advertisement for bids for the construction of Water
Tower #2. Utilities Commission President Joseph Walsh advised
the commission is looking at bidding an alternate for two
different styles, single pedestal spheroid and single pedestal
fluted column, and consideration of bids may depend on the
appropriate style for the proposed area. Consulting Engineer
on the project, Kurt Johnson from TKDA, advised that because
of a topographical review error, the tower should be shifted
approximately 80 feet in order to take advantage of the
highest elevation in the proximate area. There was a
consensus from Council that land be purchased to compensate
for the shifting of the tower and for an adequate buffer area
around the tower. See Clerk's File 1989 -18.

Appendix Chapter 38 on their proposed relocation project. Mike
Molenda, attorney for the AAA Auto Salvage, informed Council the
Andersons had been under the assumption that their project would not
be affected by the recently passed fire suppression requirements and
provided alternatives for the Council to consider. Molenda advised
the Andersons would be willing to install a dry system if an
indication is received from the city that city water would be
installed within a reasonable period of time. Molenda stated the
cost for constructing a reservoir for a sprinkler system could
prohibit the project from moving forward. Council and staff
discussed the alternatives presented by the Anderson's counsel and
the feasibility of excluding the project from the Appendix Chapter
38. Following further discussion, Council reached a consensus that

Community Development Director Dean Johnson referred to proposed
language received from USPCI pertaining to a potential amendment in
the zoning ordinance. Johnson advised the language related to the
establishment of a waste management district which would
specifically provide regulatory guidelines for an industrial
containment facility. Since city staff has not had time to review
the draft language, Johnson advised city staff would be unable to
comment on the draft language at this time. He further advised the
document had been forwarded to the city attorney. The community
development director provided background information on the proposal
received from USPCI to build an industrial waste containment
facility in the Pine Bend area and the subsequent moratorium adopted
by Council which precludes the city from acting upon any permit
requests for landfills until July 1, 1989. Johnson gave a brief
explanation of the status of the environmental review process
regarding the proposal and the city's potential involvement for site
plan review and rezoning requests. Johnson extended an offer for
city staff to provide information to assist persons interested in
arranging neighborhood meetings regarding the proposal from USPCI if
there was an interest. See Clerk's File 1989 -22.
Citizens living in the vicinity where the containment facility is
proposed to be located voiced their objections to the project. A
representative from NUFACE (Neighbors United For A Cleaner
Environment), Emily Rahn, requested that a public meeting be
scheduled for all Rosemount residents to attend. It was the
consensus of Council that all residents should be invited to any
informational meetings scheduled, but that it would be appropriate
for the applicant, USPCI to arrange such meetings.
A recess was called at 9:15 p.m. The meeting continuing at 9:30 p.m.

Notice. See Clerk's File 1989 -25.
City Engineer Rich Hefti provided an overview of City Project
No. 181 and city staff's proposal for assessing on a unit
basis with each unit equivalent to 85'. Council reviewed the
proposed assessment roll based upon a final assessment cost
per unit of $1,480.04.
John Hawkins, 4173 145th Street West, advised it was his
understanding that city staff at a previous council meeting
committed to deferring assessments on Parcel Nos. 34- 03010-
010-39 and 34- 03020 010 -41 until the parcels are developed or
rezoned from agriculture to residential.
Walter Strese, 4063 145th Street West, objected to the
proposed assessment against Parcel No. 34- 03010 013 -37.
Following discussion by Council regarding these objections,
Council reached a consensus that action be withheld until
staff can check the records to ascertain whether an agreement
was made with John Hawkins to defer assessments on his two
parcels until they are developed and to find out if these two
particular parcels are classified as green acres.
Council agreed to a short recess at 9:05 p.m. with the meeting
continuing at 9:20 p.m.
Council reviewed the bids received for the street and utility
improvements within an extension of Shannon Parkway between

City Engineer Rich Hefti recommended that Council receive the
costs to be assessed and order the assessment roll for Hawkins
Pond, Project 176. The engineer suggested two different
methods of assessing the costs and recommended that Council
and staff discuss in further detail what would be the most
fair and equitable method. Hefti reviewed the costs and
pointed out that engineering costs and easement acquisition
costs were considerably higher than what was estimated. Hefti
stated the overrun in engineering costs was contributable to
the complexity of coordinating the depositing of the
additional fill material on surrounding properties and
attempting to minimize the construction on the private
properties. Hefti felt the additional time and costs
resulting from working with the property owners and taking
care of their concerns was well worth it. See Clerk's File
1989 -25.

Administrator Stephan Jilk presented a recommended process on the
next step and direction for Council to consider in utilizing the
goals formally presented by the Citizens Advisory Committee at the
June 20, 1989 Council meeting. Administrator Jilk reiterated staff
and Council's appreciation and recognition of this committee's
assimilation of the various data and information received through
the various segments of the community involvement process, which
resulted in their final recommended goals. The administrator
addressed a two track approach which focused on a long term goal, of
formally beginning the review and subsequent update of the City's
Comprehensive Guide Plan, and a short -term goal, of having one or
more goal setting sessions to allow Council to address and develop
short term goals and a defined direction on the information received
from the community involvement process. Council discussed this
process and concurred to the concept of meeting with city department
heads in a goal- setting session sometime in early fall. Council
also discussed utilizing an outside facillitator and directed the
administrator to contact Diane Traxler from Decision Resources to
see when she would be available and her recommended format for this
session. The administrator was requested by Council to complete an
outline of the process for updating the Comprehensive Guide Plan for
7
Council's review and to provide further information on the
goal- setting session. See Clerk's File 1989 -25.
Administrator Stephan Jilk apprised Council of a request he
received to serve on a committee comprised of representatives
from government, labor, air industry and Metropolitan Council
to recommend issues that should be addressed in the siting
process for a new metropolitan airport. Jilk will be
attending a meeting on August 10, 1989 and will report to
Council the results from this meeting. Council commented on
the significance of having city representation on this
committee.

to reject the three proposals received to conduct a space needs
study for the fire station, maintenance garage and city hall. The
administrator reported that the costs associated with the three
proposals were higher than what was budgeted for the study. The
administrator requested Council action to direct staff to proceed
with in house space and staffing needs for the city hall and public
works garage and to reconfigure the request for proposals (RFP's)
for architectural services to address the fire station only.
Discussion was held on the lack of space in the city facilities and
the importance of proceeding on this project. It was the general
consensus that the original direction given by Council on this
process should continue, and staff should determine appropriate
funding sources for this project. See Clerk's file 1989 -26.

Administrator Stephan Jilk reviewed a letter, prepared by City
Attorney David Grannis, which would allow staff to enter
negotiations with representatives of United States Pollution
Control, Inc. (USPCI) concerning the permitting process for
this company's proposed containment facility. The
administrator advised Council that the current moratorium in
effect until December 31, 1989 prohibits any formal discussion
between the city and USPCI regarding permit items and
incentive packages for the community. Jilk advised the letter
further contained language that USPCI would agree to deposit
with the city a certain amount of money to be drawn upon for
any out -of- pocket expenses the city would incur in review of
the permitting process. See Clerk's File 1989 -26.
MOTION by Hoke to support the city attorney's letter of

Statutes and avoid an extraordinary mailing requirement when the new

Mayor Hoke reported on his recent meeting with the Dakota County
Library Board and subsequent discussions with Rod McDonald, director
of the Dakota County Library system, and Allen Lewis, representative
of the State Library Services. Mayor Hoke felt the philosophy of
the library board to create full service libraries which would serve
service areas rather than political areas provided very little hope
for a county library in Rosemount at this time. The mayor noted the
soon to be completed county library in Apple Valley has been
designated to serve Rosemount residents. Council concurred there
could be very little optimism for a county library in Rosemount, but
at least the County Library Board is aware that Rosemount is still
very interested in having a library in the community. See Clerk's
File 1989 -26.
Mayor Hoke reviewed the sites for the placement of the Jaycees'
"Welcome to Rosemount" signs which will be installed sometime in
August. The mayor further advised "Celebrate Minnesota" signs have
been ordered. Discussion also ensued on the State Department of
Transportation signs located on the north and south ends of town,
which are in disrepair and out of date. See Clerk's File 1989 -26.
Councilmember Walsh reported on the success and good attendance of
the events for Leprechaun Days. Walsh extended his appreciation to
various city staff and city volunteers for their hard work and
participation during the event. Councilmember Walsh announced that
1990 will be his last year to chair the Leprechaun Days' Committee

City Engineer Rich Hefti informed Council of his investigation
of past city records and tape recordings of past council
meetings regarding any deferment policies on the proposed
assessments for Lift Station #4 Sanitary Sewer Extension, City
Project 181. Council had tabled action from the July 18, 1989
assessment hearing on this project until staff could determine
if property owners John Hawkins, 4173 145th Street West, or
Walter Strese, 4063 145th Street West, had been offered
deferments on particular parcels they owned. Hefti advised
ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS
REGULAR MEETING
AUGUST 15, 1989
that although deferments were discussed at past council meetings, no
policies had been approved. Hefti further
presented staff's recommendation that Council adopt the assessment
roll as presented at the July 18, 1989 assessment hearing. See
Clerk's File 1989 -27.
City Attorney David Grannis presented several options available to
the city regarding deferment of assessments.
Mayor Hoke suspended the regular agenda to open a public hearing
scheduled at this time to consider a zoning ordinance text amendment
affecting Section 15, Subd. 15.2 c., of City Ordinance XVII.3.
The administrator /clerk presented for the record the Affidavit of
Posted Hearing Notice and Affidavit of Publication. See Clerk's
File 1989 -27.
City Planner Mike Wozniak advised the text amendment would change
mailing requirements for zoning district changes affecting five
acres or less and would bring the city Zoning Ordinance into
conformance with the State Statutes. Wozniak advised this
amendment will avoid extensive mailing notification requirements for
the adoption of the proposed official new zoning map. The council
were informed by staff that property owners who will be impacted by
the proposed zoning changes will be notified by mail. See Clerk's
File 1989 -27.
Raymond Rahn, 3855 145th Street East, advised Council he concurred
with the proposed zoning ordinance text amendment except in
circumstances when rezoning involved environmental issues such as
the USPCI proposal and the public hearing scheduled for August 29,

City Engineer Hefti advised that since the improvements
hearing, the city has initiated a Comprehensive Storm Sewer

are several major drainage areas that will require future
storm sewer improvements. Hefti presented staff's
recommendation that funding for improvements within major
drainage areas be alloted from the city's storm sewer core
facility fund which would be supplemented through connection
charge fees. Hefti therefore recommended that the assessment
unit for Project 176 be based upon the 1989 connection charge
fee of $204.00 for a single family residential unit. Hefti
also reviewed the connection charge fee for multi family and
commercial /industrial areas and the proposed assessment method
to be used for undeveloped property. Regarding the deficit

Community Development Director Dean Johnson informed the
Council of his contact by the Dakota County Housing and
Redevelopment Authority, regarding the possibility of
modifying the existing Rosemount Housing district. Johnson
explained the district is the area between Cameo Avenue and
Canada Avenue and 145th Street and Lower 147th Street. The
County is in the process of modifying districts in other
cities and could add Rosemount to the process. Johnson
advised the Rosemount district currently allows excess tax
increments from other districts to be spent in the district.
The proposed modification would allow tax increments to be
generated within the district itself. Johnson felt this
modification would help the City meet the objectives
originally established for the district.

amendment with the Dakota County housing district amendments
to be approved by the Dakota County Housing and Redevelopment
Authority as recommended by Community Development Director

Community Development Director Dean Johnson requested
direction from Council as to the method of securing a contract
for recycling services in 1990. Council reviewed the two
alternatives recommended by staff of either renegotiating a
contract solely with Knutson Rubbish or preparing a Request
for Qualifications (RFQ) and negotiating a contract with one
or more haulers. Following discussion Council concurred to a
single vendor concept and unanimously agreed a request for
qualifications should he prepared to allow other haulers the
opportunity to be considered for the city's choice in the
city's 1990 recycling program. See Clerk's File 1989 -34.

NOVEMBER 7, 1989
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof a regular meeting of
the City Council of the City of Rosemount was duly held on
Tuesday, November 7, 1989 at 8:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers
of the City Hall. The delayed start was due to the general
elections.
Mayor Hoke called the meeting to order with all members
present.
Mayor Hoke led the group in the Pledge of Allegiance.
The agenda was amended as follows: Removal of 4(e). from the
Consent Calendar to Item 5(e). Approval of Specs /Authorize Ad
for Bids New Single Axle Cab and Chassis Truck; and addition
of the following: Item 3(b). Halloween Update; Item 4(i).

Koch Refining representatives Ray Knutson, Assistant Plant
Manager, and Pat Thompson, Public Relations Director,
presented Council with a brief overview of the refinery's
current upgrade program for existing structures and plans for
future expansion. Special consideration is being given to
alternative waste water treatment systems for future expansion
of facilities. City officials will be consulted regarding
design alternatives and construction timetables of the
impending expansion projects.
Councilman Joseph Walsh reported the City sponsored Halloween
festivity was successful with many residents and non residents
in attendance. He recognized the participation of all who
volunteered their assistance and were instrumental in the
success of this program. Plans for next year's Halloween
celebration are already underway.
MOTION by Walsh to approve the Consent Agenda as amended.
Second by Oxborough. Ayes: Walsh, Wippermann, Hoke,
Oxborough, Napper. Nays: 0. See Clerk's File 1989 -35.
City Engineer Rich Hefti advised that Council concerns on the
readability of one of the maps in the Master Storm Sewer Plan
will be modified to include arrows displaying the direction of
stormwater runoff. Staff also agreed to include a statement
in the document's cover letter identifying the master plan as
an ultimate plan for maximum density development. This plan
has no bearing on the Rosemount Comprehensive Guide Plan's
identification and projections for existing and future land
use. With this statement the Master Storm Sewer Plan should
not be misinterpreted by future councils as a land use plan,
but, rather demonstrate a worst scenario as development occurs
to assess impacts on abutting districts or when a rezoning of
property occurs. See Clerk's File 1989 -35.

ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS
REGULAR MEETING
NOVEMBER 7, 1989
Council directed Staff to prepare a resolution to accept and adopt
the Master Storm Sewer Plan to include the statement as discussed
for placement on the Consent Agenda for the next Regular Council
Meeting.
The preliminary 1990 Operating Budget and 1990 -1994 CIP Budget were
presented for Council review. City Administrator Stephan Jilk
advised that impacts on local property taxes are not known at this
time due to recent legislation resulting in the transfer of funds
from local municipalities to school districts and the lack of final
Dakota County calculations of the city's value /levy ratios. It was
noted that, due to the increased housing values within the City of
Rosemount, a substantial property tax increase is not anticipated.
The submitted budget documents represent changes in revenue
projections and reduced operating budget costs. See Clerk's File
1989 -35.

City Administrator Stephan Jilk outlined a proposed procedure for
the election of fire department officers. This policy would allow
participation of Council and Administration in the selection of
department officers. A Reviewing Committee with representatives
from Council, Administration, Police Chief and fire department
members would be set up for the purpose of screening officer
candidate applicants. Job descriptions would be utilized to
determine qualifications in the screening of applicants for
placement on the ballot. Ultimate selection would remain with the
voting membership of the fire department. See Clerk's File 1989-
35.
MOTION by Oxborough to adopt the Rosemount Fire Department officer
election policy as presented. Second by Napper. Ayes: Oxborough,
Napper, Walsh, Wippermann, Hoke. Nays: 0.
In addition to a basic contract previously approved by Council,
Boarman Associates have submitted a second contract for
consideration extending their services as an architectural firm
should the City go ahead with any future expansion projects as a
result of their firm's space needs study. Council supported
Staff's recommendation to maintain only the basic contract in order
to keep options open for the City to choose the architect for
construction and design when the decision for expansion is made.

ROSEMOUNT CITY PROCEEDINGS
REGULAR MEETING
NOVEMBER 7, 1989
City Planner Michael Wozniak advised Council that the owners of
Rosemount Woods are considering an addition to their cabinet making
business located at 14640 Diamond Path in the Broback Industrial
Park. The Planning Commission has referred this to Council for
discussion due to the City's designation of this industrial park as
a residential district where tax increment financing may be
utilized for the development of housing. Rosemount Woods is
currently the only industrial use in this industrial district.
Failure of the property owners to complete the required public
improvements precludes the approval of any further industrial
building permits.
Council was in agreement that, due to surrounding residential
development, this property is no longer suitable for industrial use
and that its appropriate long -term use is as a housing district.
It was discussed that the procedure for rezoning of this property
could commence as an indication to the property owners of Council's
preferred use of the property. Staff was directed to meet with the
owners of Rosemount Woods for the purpose of offering relocation
opportunities and credible alternatives for the existing business.
See Clerk's File 1989 -35.
MOTION by Hoke authorizing Staff to initiate discussion with the
owners of Rosemount Woods and Broback Industrial Park property
owners of the potential for relocation of the present business and

Commission to amend the Zoning Ordinance. The Planning Commission
has recommended an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to include

Commercial Greenhouse. See Clerk's File 1989 -35.
Also relating to the recent Planning Commission action on the
Landscape Nursery proposal is a recommendation from Staff and City
Attorney Roger Knutson to consider an amendment to the Zoning
Ordinance to establish an appeal procedure to City Council for
Planning Commission actions on site plan reviews.
Another amendment to the Zoning Ordinance has been requested by
Councilman Vern Napper regarding the regulation of accessory
structures on parcels under 20 acres in size east of Akron Avenue.

should be removed from this provision because he believes it to be
too restrictive.
