April 15, 2014
B. Park Commission
Scherer reported that the Park Commission will meet the following week at the
community center in order to tour Hamel Legion Park, noting that the park tour will occur
the following month.
C. Plannina Commission
Planning Commissioner Mitchell reported that the Planning Commission met to discuss
the Medina Country Club application as well as the Dominium housing project. He
stated that while the community appreciates the golf course, there was also belief that
housing would be added at some point in the future. He referenced the southeast corner
or the western portion of the site and believed that is where housing should be placed.
He stated that the applicant had a very professional application and reviewed the issues
that were discussed including traffic, water issues, and adjacent existing housing. He
stated that in regard to Dominium housing request the Commission inquired about the
low-income loans. He advised that this development would qualify as low-income
housing within the guides of the Metropolitan Council. He advised that the smaller lots
and other flexibility was deemed acceptable because of the low-income housing
provided.
VIII. NEW BUSINESS
A. Villas at Medina Country Club PUD Concept Plan (7:18 p.m.)
Pederson recused himself from the discussion.
Weir noted that Pederson does not have a direct interest in this issue but has platted
land adjacent to this parcel and therefore recused himself from the discussion.
Sparks noted that this is simply a Concept Plan review for the proposal of 52 detached
townhomes along the north and western edge of the Medina Golf and Country Club. He
reviewed the current and proposed zoning of the property and adjacent properties as
well as other items of flexibility requested, such as lot size. He discussed the road
access proposed and the connections to existing roads that would be provided for each
portion of the development; noting that Shawnee Woods Road would be constructed to a
full urban roadway. He discussed the proposed sewer and water connections, as
preferred by the City. He noted that wetland plans and buffers would be required and
advised that•a maintenance plan for the ponding would also be needed. He stated that
Public Works recommended that one of the roadways be widened with parking restricted
to one side of the street and advised that the applicant has met that request. He noted
that one area has a large amount of tree removal proposed there is another area
proposed as a tree save area. He advised that while the Park Commission does
recommend a park in this area of the City there is currently not land proposed for park
dedication and noted that discussion will continue for a possible park. He reported that
the Planning Commission reviewed this item at their previous meeting and noted that the
comments were summarized within the Council packet. He highlighted the concerns
expressed by the Commission and staff.
Weir questioned if the concern regarding easements on the south side of Shawnee
Woods Trail have been resolved.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 3
April 15, 2014
Sonsalla stated that she reviewed the easement document that the City has over the
right-of-way and determined that the City does have an easement although technically
the underlying fee owners would be the landowner across the street.
Anderson referenced the minutes of the Planning Commission meeting and the
numerous concerns, specifically regarding the water table.
Sparks advised that through a previous request the developer had said that the water
table was too high to allow basements, while this proposal includes basements. He
advised that there are some areas proposed for sump pumps with drain tiles. He
advised that staff would like clarity on that issue to ensure that there would not be a
conflict with the water levels.
Kellogg advised that staff is requesting that the applicant hire a geotechnical firm to
provide information showing that the ground water elevations would not adversely affect
the basements on this site.
Martin questioned if a specific density amount is required because of the type of housing
proposed.
Sparks noted that there is not a minimum density amount associated with this type of
housing.
Martin stated that perhaps R-2 would be an appropriate zoning for this property. She
also confirmed that the existing easement would be for both road and utilities.
Anderson questioned if the City has the water and sewer capacity for this amount of
development in that area.
Kellogg confirmed that the City does have that capacity.
Chuck Alcon, representing Rachel Contracting, spoke to the Council. He stated that a
PUD overlay is requested for all four parcels to avoid reconfiguration of golf course holes
and operations.
Martin referenced the land records and questioned if the golf course currently rents the
property.
John Swarsinski stated that the entire parcel, excluding the clubhouse, is owned by
Fairway Greens Ltd. Partnership and advised that the Club leases the property from the
owner.
Martin confirmed that the current lease expires June 30, 2018 and has a 15-year option
to renew.
Swarsinski advised that the Club has executed three consecutive options to renew;
confirming that the lease will be renewed after 2018.
Alcon referenced the Shawnee Woods Road easement and provided documentation on
an easement, which replaces one of the easements found within the staff report. He
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 4
April 15, 2014
provided the information to the City Attorney and asked for a written determination as the
road depends upon that easement.
Rick Denmen, Charles Denoble Company, stated -that they believe this is a great
neighborhood and location for this development. He stated that they are excited about
the opportunity. He advised that the homes would be detached villas with 1,900 square
feet on the main floor and 1,500 square feet on the lower floor. He advised that these
homes would be marketed to luxury empty nester with a price range of $725,000 to
$850,000.
Martin questioned the price range for the homes along Brockton.
Finke reported that the price range is around the $500,000s.
Denmen stated that when the master is placed on the main floor typically the design is
for single level living with guest quarters on the lower level. He confirmed that this
product would not be limited to a specific age group.
Weir stated that these are large homes with a small lot in a good school district that
could be attractive to families as well.
Alcon reported a density rate of 2.7 units per acre, which is on the low end of the scale
and advised that all right-of-way and access requirements of Hennepin County are met
through this plan. He reviewed the proposed trails for the property, noting that a trail
would not be included for the east side of the parcel as it would be considered a liability.
He stated that a park was not found to be a good use adjacent to the golf course and
therefore cash is proposed in lieu of land for park dedication. He advised that a
geotechnical report is available and will be provided to the City. He also summarized
some of the other aspects of the Plan including driveways, tree preservation, sanitary
sewer, and landscaping.
Weir stated that she walked the entire property and believes this to be an
environmentally sensitive site and she was concerned with clear cutting. She stated that
she would be surprised if the geotechnical report states that basements along Shawnee
Woods Road would be okay because of the wet conditions she observed.
Steve Theesfeld, 600 Shawnee Woods Road, stated that the issue had been discussed
at the Planning Commission as to whether this would be a proper PUD. He referenced
City Code and reviewed the definition provided of PUD. He believed that the density
provided for the northeast corner is in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan and also
believed the proposed clear cutting would be a violation of City policy. He referenced
the easement and believed that the driveway access would be awkward because he
would own the land on either side of the driveways. He stated that in every other
instance within the City the road is split between northern and southern parcel while this
proposal places the entire burden of the road on one side of the road. He also believed
that the density proposed for the northeast corner should be shifted to the southeast
portion of the site. He also believed that perhaps it would be appropriate to reconfigure
some of the golf holes because there will be disruption to neighboring property owners.
Eric Voltin, 690 Shawnee Woods Road, referenced the issue of density and stated that
in other instances if there is a townhome project near a development with large lots there
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 5
April 15, 2014
are usually larger widths and additional landscaping to screen the areas from each
other. He believed that these are nice homes but did not want to see such high density
near his low -density residential area.
Anderson confirmed the areas that the residents are opposed to.
Theesfeld stated that his concern is mostly regarding the lots adjacent to the five acre
lots and believed additional density could be placed along CR 116.
Weir agreed with the comments of the Planning Commission regarding the traffic
concerns at the Meander intersection. She referenced the road proposed opposite of
Meander and the wooded deep gulley that she assumed would be filled and cut for
homes to be constructed. She agreed that some of the homes should meet the R-1
standard and did not want to see clear cutting occur on the site. She stated that she
would like to see more sensitive preservation of trees, noting their ability to absorb
water. She believed that a trail along the eastern portion of the site could be placed 30
feet within the woodland to avoid safety concern with golf balls. She stated that the only
place she found golf balls on the site is on the western portion and questioned if there
would be impact to the homes proposed. She expressed concern with the high water
table along Shawnee Woods Road. She stated that she likes the side loading garages
proposed and could agree to the shortened driveway. She stated that she would like to
see the double frontage lots dealt with in some way so that they do not face a road on
both sides. She was also concerned with the tight turn proposed for the road but noted
that staff explained that the roadway would need to accommodate a turning fire truck.
She would also like to see development within the wooded areas that is more compatible
with the development to the north (R-1) and with the existing woods.
Martin agreed with the comments made by Weir. She referenced the double frontage
lots and the effect of the development agreement on adjacent landowners and asked for
information in regard to the screening. She stated that she would also like to see a
report on the road easements and how they interact with the properties. She stated that
she also did not like the shared driveway idea. She stated that this is a beautiful product
proposed for a great open space area but was concerned with the implication to the
neighbors to the north and the environment.
Anderson referenced the report of the Planning Commission, noting that he saw a lot of
concern and not positive support. He echoed the comments made by Weir and Martin
as well as the comments of the Planning Commission regarding the traffic on CR 116.
He agreed with Commissioner Reid that at some point the City has to put their foot down
on development that will negatively impact the traffic on CR 116. He acknowledged that
it may not be fair to future developers, but believed that there needs to be a solution to
the traffic problem.
Weir asked for information with the PUD overlaying the entire site of four parcels.
Sparks stated that the proposal would place the PUD over the four parcels, which was
also discussed at the Planning Commission meeting. He explained that would ensure
that the limited housing would be in agreement with the existing Comprehensive Plan.
He explained that any additional housing requests would need to come back before the
Council.

April 15, 2014
Marty Campion, Campion Engineering, stated that he is the project engineer for this
project as well as the previously submitted project. He stated that he is aware of the
water conditions and advised that basements are proposed to be above the existing
ground elevation. He advised that additional grading would also occur on the western
portion to bring the elevation up above the water. He reported that these are proposed
to be lookout units and not walkout units. He referenced the proposed ponds along
Shawnee Woods Road and noted that those are existing wetlands and not newly
constructed ponds. He noted that there are a number of wetlands onsite but they are
not proposing to impact any of those wetlands and therefore mitigation is not required.
He confirmed that the wetland delineation has been approved by the City consultant. He
referenced the issue of traffic and acknowledged that there are problems with CR 116
but noted that the problem arises at Highway 55 and CR 116 and not at the intersection
of Meander Road and CR 116. He advised that there would be alternative ways to exit
the development without accessing CR 116.
Weir thanked the applicant and his representatives for coming and looked forward to the
next review.
Pederson rejoined the Council.
B. Hartrav Lot Combination — 4035 Apache Drive (8:18 p.m.)
Finke presented a request for a lot combination for the property at 4035 Apache Drive
and adjacent. He explained that the property owner would like to combine the two
parcels that he currently owns. He advised that the single lots do not meet the minimum
lot requirements but advised that the combined property would come closer to
compliance. He advised that the City usually requires right-of-way dedication and noted
that with the agreement of the property owner that language has been drafted. He
advised that staff recommends approval of the request subject to the conditions noted in
the resolution.
Weir questioned if this was an issue that came forward because of a failing septic
system.
Finke confirmed that this issue had come to light when the resident came forward with a
permit request to replace a failing septic system.
Martin asked for additional information regarding condition C.
Finke advised that historically variances have not been supported in these instances and
staff believes that this would bring the site more into conformity, which is why this action
was recommended by staff.
Bradley Beisel, the attorney representing the applicant, confirmed that this issue came
forward because of a failing septic system and the applicant has met all of the requests
of the City thus far including right-of-way easements. He asked for favorable action from
the Council.
1. Resolution No. 2014-25 Granting Approval of a Lot Combination to
Frederick C. Hartrav for Property at 4035 Apache Drive

April 15, 2014
Moved by Pederson, seconded by Anderson, to approve Resolution No. 2014-25
Granting Approval of a Lot Combination to Frederick C. Hartray for Property at 4035
Apache Drive. Motion passed unanimously.
C. Enclave at Brockton 4th Addition (8:24 p.m.)
Finke stated that Preliminary Plat approval was given by the Council on July 17, 2012
and reviewed the activity of previous phases of the development noting that this phase
of development would include 18 additional single-family homes. He advised that the
purpose of the Final Plat is to review the consistency with the Preliminary Plat and the
adherence to the conditions. He advised that a portion of the site would be dedicated to
the City for Well 8, which will be discussed later on tonight's agenda. He reported that
the Final Plat is almost identical to the Preliminary Plat and recommended approval of
the actions requested tonight.
1. Resolution No. 2014-26 Granting Final Plat Approval for the Enclave at
Brockton 4th Addition
Moved by Martin, seconded by Pederson, to approve Resolution No. 2014-26 Granting
Final Plat Approval for the Enclave at Brockton 4th Addition. Motion passed
unanimously.
2. Development Agreement by and between the City of Medina and
U.S. Home Corporation for the Enclave at Brockton 4th Addition
Moved by Martin, seconded by Pederson, to approve the Development Agreement by
and between the City of Medina and U.S. Home Corporation for the Enclave at Brockton
4th Addition. Motion passed unanimously.
D. Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) — Annual Public Hearing
(8:29 p.m.)
Scherer presented the annual MS4 public hearing, which is a requirement of the Storm
Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). He highlighted the projects that were
completed in 2013 including the Chippewa Road West culvert and the
Tuckborough/Hunter Farms Addition culverts as well as pond and outfall maintenance.
He advised that the GPS mapping has also continued and is almost complete. He
reviewed the 2014, and beyond, projects noting that staff is going to work with
consultants to develop a long-term plan. He reviewed the minimum control measures
regarding pollution prevention and housekeeping, public education and outreach, public
participation, illicit discharge detection and elimination, construction site storm water
runoff control, and post -construction storm water management. He reviewed the City
partners in water quality improvement.
Weir stated that the Elm Creek Watershed District is advocating holding the local
government units responsible for the maintenance of storm ponds. She believed that
the storm ponds should be placed on a five year inspection schedule and also believed
that the City should require inspection and reports from non -City owned ponds.
Scherer confirmed that the City ponds are on a five-year inspection rotation. He stated
that he would also review the ability to investigate the option of non -City owned ponds.
Weir opened the public hearing at 8:37 p.m.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 8
April 15, 2014
Pederson referenced the issue of sediment and questioned if the City is able to remove
sediment themselves. He questioned where the material goes.
Scherer advised that the City has been able to do that on smaller projects but noted that
is not always the case and sometimes a contractor is hired that has larger equipment.
He advised that the material is tested and explained that there are different
classifications depending what is found. He advised that reuse of the material is
acceptable for classifications one and two and noted that if contaminated, class three,
the material has to be brought to a special site.
Moved by Martin, seconded by Anderson, to close the public hearing at 8:40 p.m.
Motion passed unanimously.
E. Tower Drive Proiect Discussion (8:41 p.m.)
Scherer stated that staff is looking for direction on this project in regard to storm water.
He advised that the Council and staff have discussed the issue as well as possible
funding in addition to discussions with the residents. He stated that the last discussion
was whether to apply for the grant and whether the project could be kept on track to
move forward. He advised that the City could reapply for grant funds and keep the
project moving forward but noted that the City would then not be able to recoup the
design costs that he estimated at $10,000. He advised that the application could be
designed to meet the minimum standards with alternatives that could be pursued should
the grant funds be received. He explained that there are many aspects to this project
and staff would like to move ahead on this now in order to better plan during the summer
months, rather than the winter months when conditions are difficult. He advised that a
proposed schedule has been included in the Council packet.
Becky Wozney, Hawkanson Anderson, advised that her firm has worked with the City in
the past including the Raskob pond and original grant application for this project. She
provided additional information regarding the proposed timeline and TMDL information.
She believed that a waste load allocation would be identified which will give the City a
better chance in regard to the grant application, noting that a waste load allocation was
previously not assigned during the previous grant application.
Scherer believed that the necessary property owners would be willing to work with the
City to resolve this issue. He advised that the design plan will be much more detailed.
Wozney stated that she believed one of the alternatives should include the option to
retrofit with an iron enhanced sand filter in the future. She believed that this would
enhance the possibility of obtaining the grant.
John Raskob, 345 Comanche Trail, questioned when the project would be completed.
Johnson stated that if the Council is in agreement with moving ahead the plan the
project could occur in 2015.
John Raskob stated that there has been thousands of gallons of water dumped onto his
property and was happy to see that there are plans to correct that issue.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 9
April 15, 2014
Tony Raskob stated that his concern is that potential buyers have not been interested
because of the existing water issues. He hoped to see the concern of the Council
continue on this issue.
John Raskob stated that they simply want to be treated fairly, as anyone else with water
running onto their property would be.
The Council directed staff to move forward with the Tower Drive project according to the
attached schedule, apply for the grant with BWSR for the storm water portion, and plan
fora 2015 project.
F. Electronic Citv Council Packets (8:57 p.m.)
Johnson stated that during the goal setting Worksession electronic packets were
discussed and the Council directed staff to investigate the option. He stated that Jodi
Gallup has developed a proposed policy as well as the cost for the iPads. He advised
that the estimated payback for this would be one year and three months as well as
additional staff time. He advised that staff would purchase iPads for the Council as well
as the department heads.
Weir stated that she believed that the policy was well written.
Martin stated that her concern would be reviewing plans on a small iPad.
Johnson advised that in those instances the information could be provided in paper
format to the Council.
Martin stated that although this could save money she did not believe that this would
positively affect the ability for the Council to review plans and print the necessary
information. She stated that she would prefer to see the written information.
Anderson stated that he would like to see printed information on development proposals.
Pederson expressed concern that his packet is left on his front step and also believed
that it would be helpful for the police to not have to deliver the packets.
Johnson agreed that this would save staff time for the police and department heads but
stated that this would be counterproductive if the Council would not use them and would
still want printed packets.
Martin stated that she would be willing to try the option.
Anderson expressed a concern with available bandwidth. He agreed that the staff was
right to push the Council in this direction and to move to using less paper.
Pederson stated that for litigation purposes it would be nice to have the iPad to be able
to provide.
Anderson noted some things are done on paper that could be sent electronically and
would be well suited for an iPad, while the development and planning should be done on
paper.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 10
April 15, 2014
Johnson stated that perhaps the Council is not at the point yet where this could be
productive. He noted that Gallup did an excellent job gathering the research and
advised that the option could be investigated in the future.
4.. -11.00 :Pad Policy
G. Architectural Proposal for City Hall Basement Renovation (9:07 p.m.)
Johnson stated that Finke has done an excellent job gathering the necessary information
regarding the renovation of the basement at City Hall.
Finke stated that some rough cost estimates were gathered and because of the higher
than believed cost it was recommended to break the project into sections. He
recommended that the City move forward with Woody Architects, the provider of the
lower estimate.
Moved by Anderson, seconded by Martin, to direct the Mayor and City
Administrator/Clerk to execute an agreement with Martin Woody Architects, the form and
substance of which is approved by the City Attorney. Motion passed unanimously.
IX. CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT (9:10 p.m.)
A. Taproom License
Johnson advised that a resident is proposing to open a microbrewery with a taproom.
He stated that currently there is nothing under City Ordinance which regulates this and
also expressed concern with possible zoning conflicts. He questioned if the Council
would like to look into the issue to update Ordinance and zoning to allow this use.
Weir stated that she has been to taprooms and usually there is food offered. She was
concerned with an establishment of this nature that would not have food. She
questioned if packaged snacks could be available and whether that would bring the
Health Department into the mix.
Belland did not think that would fit within the State Statute for a liquor license. He did not
think this would be a big issue as these uses have become more and more popular. He
did not think there would be a way to avoid but believed that research should be done to
update the Ordinance.
Anderson noted that in some instances taprooms have brought in additional business to
surrounding retail and food businesses.
Finke noted that the items that would be necessary under Ordinance 1306, such as a
sprinkler system, may make the project cost prohibitive for the interested party.
Weir stated that it appears that this use could not be accommodated in Uptown Hamel at
this time.
Finke stated that he believed that Uptown Hamel would be a great fit for this type of use
but believed that Ordinance 1306 would make the project a nonstarter.
Weir stated that perhaps the City should review Ordinance 1306 in a future
Worksession.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 11
April 15, 2014
Johnson advised that staff could review the issue of taprooms and well as bringing
Ordinance 1306 forward to a Council Worksession in the future.
B. Well #8 Discussion
Scherer stated that with the approval of the Final Plat for the Enclave at Brockton 4th
Addition, the City now has control over the property where they would like to place a
well. He noted that the City has received funds from Lennar, per the agreement,
towards the construction of the well. He stated that the development would still pay for
the water used for irrigation purposes through the agreement. He advised that a portion
of this project would include updates to the controls so that staff would not have to run
the wells manually. He advised that this is a large project with many components and
staff will work with a consultant to develop a scope of work that will be brought forward at
a future Council meeting.
C. Other
Johnson stated that following Council direction he prepared a Resolution of Recognition
for Public Safety Director Ed Belland and also nominated him for the Leadership Award
through League of Minnesota Cities.
Weir commended Belland for his work on behalf of the City.
Moved by Martin, seconded by Anderson, to approve Resolution No. 2014-27
Recognizing Public Safety Director Ed Belland for his service to Medina. Motion
passed unanimously.
D. Municipal State Aid Route Revision
Johnson noted that the Municipal State Aid Routes have been updated as previously
discussed and need approval of the Council.
Finke advised that MnDOT did review and approve this route and believed these
revisions would provide an additional $16,000 into the budget for the next year.
Moved by Martin, seconded by Pederson, to approve Resolution No. 2014-28 Revising
Municipal State Aid Routes as proposed. Motion passed unanimously.
E. Other
Johnson noted that today is Weir's birthday and recognized her, noting that baked goods
will be available courtesy of Martin.
