Following discussion, Chief Belland discussed the house check program, the introduction
of a prescription drug take back program at Clean-up Day in 2017, and updated Council
on funds from forfeited property.
IX. Other Discussion Topics

K. Resolution No. 2017-12 Approving an Interim Use Permit for Woodridge
Church to Permit the Continuation of a Residential Use on the Site
L. Approve Construction Cooperative Agreement No. PW 67-36-16 Highway 55
and CSAH 115; County Road 116; C.P. 0918
Johnson referenced Item D and asked Stremel to provide an update as the bids were
below the engineer's estimate.
Stremel reported that a total of five bids were received for the project with a range
around the engineer's estimate. He stated that the low bid was $267,250 compared to
the engineer's estimate of $339,300.
Mitchell stated that the City took a low bid recently that did not work out well and asked if
this will be better.
Johnson stated that WSB and other municipalities have experience with the contractor
and staff will keep an eye on the project. He also referenced Item L and noted that
alternate bid language is included for the quiet zone.
Moved by Pederson, seconded by Cousineau, to approve the consent agenda. Motion
passed unanimously.
VI. COMMENTS (7:05 p.m.)
A. Comments from Citizens on Items not on the Agenda
There were none.
B. Park Commission
Scherer reported that the Park Commission discussed the parks and trails section of the
Comprehensive Plan as well as the concept plan for the Marx property. He stated that
the big concern was the horse trail around the lake and the Commission wanted to
secure trail easements to protect that trail.
C. Planning Commission
It was noted that the Planning Commission did not meet since the last Council meeting.
VII. NEW BUSINESS
A. Conservation Design-PUD Ordinance Discussion (7:07 p.m.)
Johnson noted that at a previous Council meeting the Council requested background
information on how the ordinance was developed which has been provided in the packet
for the review of the Council. He noted that this is open for discussion as requested by
the City Council.
Sparks provided a brief summary of the background information. He noted that the
ordinance could continue as written or the Council could choose to further discuss the
topic.
Mitchell stated that the City is in the middle of the Comprehensive Plan process and this
is an important part of that. He stated that the object is to discuss the packet information
tonight and then obtain input from Finke when he is available.

sewer to Hamel and stated that he is concerned that this additional density could have
an impact on that.
Martin noted that this ordinance provides the conservation of the rural Medina elements
and providing a great trail system that can be enjoyed by all the residents, those that live
in the rural areas and those that live in the suburban areas. She stated that a density
drive will come back again from the Metropolitan Council sometime in the future and this
will allow the City to preserve tracts of land from falling into regular suburban
development.
Mitchell stated that he would like to see the density bonus lower than 200 percent or at
least strengthening of what is being protected.
Martin stated that she would not want to narrow the latitude of future Council's to give
the right incentive to the right project.
Batty stated that the ordinance allows discretion, which is key. He stated that the other
thing that arose is that it is probably a mistake to only focus on the percentage and
instead look at the absolute number of lots. He used the example of doubling two or
three compared to doubling 20 or 30 lots. He noted that if there is going to be a large
doubling of lots, then the City should be getting more in terms of conservation.
Johnson noted that staff can review the language and bring the topic back for further
discussion.
Martin noted that it is the discretion of the Council and therefore she would not want to
see the bargaining ability of the City reduced.
Cousineau stated that her fear is that the City is not using their discretion and should be
using that more. She wanted to ensure that the Council knows they are empowered.
Martin stated that the Council has said no twice and the one that was approved was
under the settlement agreement.
B. Wally Marx — Conservation Design Subdivision PUD Concept Plan — 2500-
2900 Parkview Drive (7:46 p.m.)
Johnson noted that this was first brought forward to the Council in 2010/2011 but the
property was found to be in agricultural preserve and therefore had to wait until 2016.
Sparks stated that the property is currently three parcels that would be proposed to be
developed into six lots. He stated that of the 90 acres, about 70 acres would be in
easement and of that 40 percent would qualify for the buildable acre clause. He stated
that this property is currently zoned and guided for rural residential use. He stated that
the property includes two areas of moderate quality maple basswood forest and a good
quality tamarack swamp land that were identified in the open space report. He noted
that those elements would be proposed to be conserved. He explained the purpose of
the ordinance, which creates and protects the conservation ordinance. He stated that
the base density of the three parcels would allow three lots, and therefore this would be
a 200 percent density bonus. He noted that they are proposing conservation of 77.6
percent of the site. He provided additional details on the lot layouts, access, and septic
locations. He stated that the purpose of a concept plan is for the applicant to gain input

with a single easement holder and would provide a benefit to the City. He stated that
this provides more conserved land and less buildable homes than any application
before. He referenced the park dedication requirement for the horse trail around the
lake. He stated that the lake is entirely private at this time, along with the horse trail, and
is used by invitation only and not used by the public. He stated that there has been
pushback from the neighbors on the lake that they do not want that path open to the
public at large and those neighbors would close their segments of the trail. He also
noted that there would be issues with parking for people attempting to access the trail.
He noted that there was a lengthy discussion at the Park Commission meeting. He
noted that an alternate trail location was discussed in the southern portion of the
property, which would keep the trail away from the homes. He noted that the intent then
would be for it to be a nature trail. He stated that the Park Commission wanted the
ability to provide trail connection to the properties east and west. He noted that there
are not currently trails to the east or west. He noted that the applicant is conserving not
only the required buildable land but also 60 additional acres of non -buildable land and
therefore asked that the Council waive the requirement for park dedication. He stated
that a lot of thought went into this concept plan.
Martin referenced a gravel drive and asked if the existing configuration would continue or
whether there would be a relocation. It was noted this is the existing horse trail. She
stated that on the applicant's proposal she noticed buildable area that is going into
conservation and compared that to the staff plan. She also noted what seemed to be a
straight line of trees and asked for more information.
Wally Marx replied that the line of trees is very straight because they purchased the land
in 1998 and there were 400 hogs on the property before they purchased the property.
He noted that the pigs devastated the land. He stated that in order to create more
conserved land they have limited the housing footprint to one acre each.
Charlie Schroder, 2910 Parkview, stated that they are the neighbor immediately to the
north and are present to understand what is going on. He stated that they are new
neighbors and have found this background information to be helpful. He asked how the
PUD is superior to the conventional development, as he did not quite see how the land
would be better under the PUD. He stated that having the trail open to the public would
be problematic with parking. He stated that a north/south trail on Parkview would be
objectional. He stated that this seems like a lot of density relative to a conventional
development plan.
Pederson stated that he was on the Council in 2011 and stated that this request is
considerably better than that request. He stated that he has concerns with the proximity
to the lake. He stated that the trail would be problematic because the other property
owners do not want that. He stated that with the trails at Baker Park he was unsure why
additional trails would be needed here. He stated that it would be difficult to give up park
dedication, noting that he does not have any interest in dropping park dedication.
Mitchell provided background information on the Long Lake Hounds.
Anderson agreed that this is a substantially better plan than what was presented in
2011. He stated that he does have concerns with the closeness of lots one and two. He
stated that it seems that the buildable acreage is in pieces rather than one contiguous

Williams stated that it seems that there is some antagonism towards the ordinance itself
rather than the project. He stated that if you hate the ordinance you can say no to every
request, noting that there will not be a lot of these requests. He stated that it does not
seem that this should rise or fall on five or six homes when the applicants would be
conserving 70 acres of land. He stated that the conservation aspects on this request far
exceed what was gained through Stonegate, and this request is only asking for three
additional homes. He appreciated the honest feedback but felt that the Council is
providing negative comments against the ordinance itself.
Cousineau stated that lots one and two do not conform to the DNR shoreline regulations.
She agreed that this was a hot topic tonight but noted that there would have to be some
conformity in order to discuss the 200 percent density bonus.
Williams stated that if the parcels should be expanded, it would make them more
saleable as they would gain more shoreland. He explained that the lots are smaller
because of the conserved shoreline. He did not feel they would have trouble presenting
the case to the DNR.
Mitchell stated that it seems that they could just do a PUD to approve additional lots.
Batty stated that is not what the applicant has requested and would have different
standards for review.
Mitchell stated that he did not understand how this would meet the objectives of the
conservation design ordinance.
Michael Pressman stated that he has spent about 25 years on conservation
development, as this is his career. He stated that he began looking at this property
when he was working with the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and he made an
offer at that time to purchase a conservation easement to secure what is proposed to the
City for free. He stated that he secured an easement to the north. He stated that he
was attracted to this property because of the natural features of the site. He noted that
while the yellow area may seem small that is connected to the green areas that would
also be preserved. He stated that he joined his profession to look ahead and ensure
conservation when changes come in the future. He stated that this project has come
before the Council three times now. He stated that this site contains areas identified in
the City's open space plan and meet the requirements of the ordinance.
Martin asked how many homes could be built on this property if this property were
rezoned in the future as single family detached or attached.
VIII. OLD BUSINESS
A. 2020-2040 Comprehensive Plan Update (9:09 p.m.)
Johnson stated that the first seven chapters of the draft Comprehensive Plan are before
the Council, noting that the additional chapters will be brought forward on February 21'
and at that time staff will ask for the direction of the Council to route the plan to affected
jurisdictions.
Pederson recused himself from the discussion.
