Mayor Branning called the public hearing to order at 8:15 p.m. on PUBLIC HEARING 1989 special assessment rolls 254 through 267 and noted receipt of ASSESSMENT ROLLS the affidavit of publication of the hearing notice. The City Clerk reviewed the assessment rolls and recommended corrections. Assessment roll 267 should be reduced by $42,917 because trunk utility charges will not be assessed on the park/armory site at this time. Trunk utility charges were not included in rolls 260, 261 and 262, for The Woods Additions. They are being removed from consideration at this meeting and a new hearing will need to be set on tho revised amount. The Mayor asked for questions or comments from the public. There were none and the hearing was declared closed at 8:16 p.m. MOTION: of Humphrey, seconded by Holton, adopting Resolution No. 1989-213 approving 1989 special assessment rolls 254 to 259 and 263 to 267 in the revised total amount of $1,154,508.00 for certification to Dakota County and collection with the general taxes. Ayes - 5 - Nays ~ O. RES. 1989-213 APPROVE SPECIAL ASSESSMENT ROLLS CITY OF APPLE VALLEY Dakota County, Minnesota October 12, 1989 Page 5 Mayor Branning called the public hearing to order at 8:17 p.m. on PUBLIC HEARING 1989 special assessment roll 268, delinquent utility charges, and DELINQUENT UTIL. noted receipt of the affidavit of publication of the hearing notice. ASSESSMENTS Of the $6,634.91 originally set for hearing, prepayments of $1,517.48 have been received. Mr. Melena said a list of residential accounts with account closing dates prior to June 1, 1988, totaling $879.04, fs included with the Council's information. It is recommended that these very old accounts be written off as uncollectible. The Mayor noted that letters of objection have been received from Robert Sloat, 6164 - 132nd Way, for a charge of $132.50 and Vicki Pasquarello, 13346 Ferris Avenue, for a charge of $57.76 have been received. Shelf Grinvalds, 15711 Hannover Path, presented a letter to the Mayor objecting to a $171.01 charge on her property. It was noted that in these three situations, the charges were left unpaid by previous property owners. Councilmember Holton asked for clarification on closing bill cut-off dates and deposit requirements. Mr. Melena said with quarterly billing, the $20.00 deposit usually does not cover a final bill. Depending on where in the billing cycle a property is, it may or may not show a delinquent bill if checked. Monthly billing should improve both of these situations. In addition, we will now provide delin- quent utility bill information when an assessment search is requested. There were no further questions or comments and the hearing was declared closed at 8:30 p.m. MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Goodwin, adopting Resolution No. 1989- 214 approving 1989 special assessment roll 268 in the revised amount of $3,934.88 for certification to Dakota County and collection with the general taxes and writing off the amount of $879.04, as recommended, and the accounts at 6164 - 132nd Way and 15711 Hannover Path.

Ayes - 5 - Nays - 0. Mayor Branning called the public hearing to order at 8:35 p.m. on PUBLIC HEARING · Project 89-337, 141st Street Improvements between Pilot Knob Road PROJ. 89-337 and 140th Street, and noted receipt of the affidavit of publication of the hearing notice. Mr. Gordon reviewed the preliminary engineering feasibility report for the improvements to serve the outlots of East Valley Plaza. Because this is a small project and the developer would like it completed soon, it could be done by change order to the contract for Rolling Ridge. Councilmember Holton questioned whether the street name should remain "141st Street"? Mr. Gordon said it probably would be less confusing if it were changed since it will now continue north and connect to 140th Street. The Mayor asked for other questions or comments. There were none and the hearing was declared closed at 8:40 p.m. CITY OF APPLE VALLEY Dakota County, Minnesota October 12, 1989 Page 6 MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Goodwtn, adopting Resolution No. 1989- 216 ordering installation of Project 89-337, 141st Street Improvements between Pilot Knob Road and 140th Street.

PROJ. 89-337 MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Goodwin, adopting Resolution No. 1989- 217 directing the Engineer to prepare plans and specifications for Project 89-337. Ayes - 5 - Nays - 0. Jim O'Meara, of Briggs & Morgan, reviewed the agreements related to SOUTHPORT Southport Centre. An agreement, approved September 21, 1989, with AGREEMENTS Ryan Construction, provides that it has certain obligations to the City. Dayton Hudson is purchasing the large lot from Ryan. A separate agreement is now being requested which will not commit Dayton Hudson to anything under the Ryan agreement. If Dayton Hudson does not build, it would not be an excuse for Ryan to get out of its commitment. Ryan is requesting some technical changes in its agreement and an extension until 1991 to build 210,000 square feet. The Dayton Hudson portion would be 160,000 square feet and is intended to proceed. The implications of the extension on tax increment financing have been reviewed and Mr. O'Meara said he is comfortable that the Dayton Hudson building alone would cash flow the tax increment. Mr. Melena said a complication in the revised agreements is that the City's sale of the tax increment bonds is set for October 17th. In order for the City to proceed it will be necessary to have the agreements signed and a bond guarantee from Ryan by 3:00 p.m. October 13th. If this is not received, the sale should be cancelled and tomorrow would be the latest date to do so. Bill McHale, of Ryan Construction, was present and said they and Dayton Hudson have agreed to all the conditions, it just remains for the documents to be drafted. He has been assured they will be completed tomorrow. In clarification of the time extension to 1991, they are still agreeing to the same dollar value of construction in 1990 even if all of the square footage is not built until 1991. MOTION: of Humphrey, seconded by Goodwin, adopting Resolution No. 1989-218 approving anAgreement with Dayton Hudson Corpor- ation concerning transfer of property from Ryan Construction and improvements to be constructed and authorizing the Mayor and Clerk to sign the same. Ayes - 5 - Nays - O. RES. 1989-218 DAYTON HUDSON AGREEMENT RES. 1989~219 AMEND RYAN CONTRACT FOR DEVELOPMENT RES. 1989-220 SOUTHPORT PLAT WAIVER MOTION: of Humphrey, seconded by Goodwin, adopting Resolution No. 1989-219 approving an amended Contract for Private Develop- ment with Ryan Construction, extending the commitment to build 210,000 square feet until 1991, and authorizing the Mayor and Clerk to sign the same subject to approval of the City Attorney and Administrator. Ayes ~ 5 - Nays - 0. MOTION: of Goodwin, seconded by Holton, adopting Resolution No. 1989- 220 granting a temporary waiver of platting on the Southport Centre property to allow transfer of title, on a metes and bounds description basis, prior to filing the final plat. Ayes - 5 - Nays - O. CITY OF APPLE VALLEY Dakota County, Minnesota October 12, 1989 Page 7 MOTION: of Goodwin, seconded by Humphrey, adopting Resolution No. 1989-221 approving the final plat and subdivision agreement for Southport Centre and authorizing the Mayor and Clerk to sign the same. Ayes - 5 - Nays - 0. RES. 1989-221 FINAL PLAT SOUTHPORT CENTRE RES. 1989-223 BUILDING PERMIT SOUTHPORT PHSE I MOTION: of Goodwin, seconded by Holton, adopting Resolution No. 1989- 223 authorizing issuance of a building permit for Southport Centre Phase I, on Lot 1, Block 1, Southport Centre, as recommended by the Planning Commission, subject to conditions as listed. Mr. Kelley reviewed the recommended conditions of the building permit. Dennis Anderson, of Target's Architecture Department, was present and reviewed a model of the building. He said they have not selected a name for the store yet. Rather than using metal screening of the rooftop units, they would prefer to raise the parapet walls on the front and sides by two feet and accomplish the visual screening. The retaining wall around the loading docks will be raised ten feet to screen the trucks and garbage area. Mayor Branning asked where shopping carts will be stored? Mr. Anderson said there will be corrals in the parking lot and the remainder will be inside. When they are not in use, they may be stored outside on either side of the entrance doors. Mr. McHale said this question has not been totally addressed, but a four-foot masonry wall could be used for screening in these areas. Vote was taken on the motion. Ayes ~ 5 - Nays - 0. The Council received a petition from residents of the Briar Oaks area BRIAR OAKS requesting a reduction in the present 30-mile per hour speed limit. SPEED LIMITS Mr. Gretz noted that speed limits are set by MnDOT which has been reluctant to lower speed limits to less than 30 miles per hour unless there are unusual circumstances. There has been discussion by the Legislature to allow 25-mile per hour speed limits in residential areas and such a request may give impetus to the movement. MOTION: of Savanick, seconded by Goodwin, adopting Resolution No. 1989-224 requesting the Minnesota Department of Transpor- tation to review speed limits on 121st Street and on Gantry Lane in the Briar Oaks area. Ayes - 3 - Nays - 2 (Branning and Holton). RES. 1989-224 BRIAR OAKS SPEED STUDY DENY COLDWELL BANKER SIGN VARIANCE MOTION: of Goodwin, seconded by Holton, accepting the Planning Commission's recommendation and denying a request by Coldwell Banker for a sign variance at 14990 Glazier Avenue. Mr. Welsch said the building has an existing ground sign and is allowed an additional building sign. The intent of the ordinance is to identify the building via a ground sign and the tenants on the building sign. The building owner said it would forego the building sign if additional signage is allowed on the ground sign. Mr. Sheldon said the ordinance makes provisions for a variance, but not for trading one sign for another. CITY OF APPLE VALLEY Dakota County, Minnesota October 12, 1989 Page 8 Garfield Clark, representing the building owner, was present and said a local attorney would be the tenant, but he will not relocate to the building unless he can have the signage. The tenant will not agree to the building sign because he believes they are visual clutter. Ths variance request is for 15 squats feet on the ground sign and the 40 square feet allowed on the building will not be used. They would use the variance only if this attorney becomes a tenant. Councilmember Goodwin asked if this would be a precedent for other buildings? Mr. Welsch said that is a concern. Councilmember Humphrey said he does not agree with sign variances and if there is a problem, it should be looked at and the ordinance changed if necessary. Vote was taken on the motion. Ayes - 5 ~ Nays ~ O. Mr. Welsch reviewed a proposed ordinance establishing performance NEIGHBORHOOD standards in neighborhood center zoning districts. It provides for CENTER PERFORM- specific locations requirements and size, landscaping, lighting, ANCE STANDARDS architectural design provisions, a more detailed definition of a restaurant and a limit on hours of operation unless extended by a conditional use permit. The Council discussed whether hours of operation should be restricted from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m and what circumstances would allow longer hours. Mr. Welsch said the ordinance would establish finite standards but allow the Council to set extended hours by permit. The purpose is to make such centers compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. MOTION: of Goodwin, seconded by Savanick, passing Ordinance No. 462 amending Sections A1-3, A1-35 and A1~35.1 of Appendix A of the City Code by amending the definition of "restaurant" and establishing performance standards in Neighborhood Center, "NC" and "NC-1", zoning districts, as recommended by the Planning Commission, except limiting hours of operation from 6:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. Ayes ~ 5 - Nays - 0. ORDINANCE 462 NEIGHBORHOOD CTR PERFORMANCE STANDARDS RESIDENTIAL PARKING PROVISIONS MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Savanick, amending Section A1-61(d) of Appendix A of the City Code related to number of and conditions under which vehicles maybe parked or stored in restdential areas, as recommended by the Planning Commission and Urban Affairs Committee, except paragraphs 2 and 3 under Section A1-61(d)(4)(ii). Mr. Welsch reviewed the ordinance as recommended. Councilmember Holton said his motion removes paragraphs 2 and 3 because he believes non-motorized vehicles should not be included in the restrictions. Mayor Branning said he concurs with the Planning Commission's and Urban Affairs Committee's recommendation and all vehicles should be addressed. The Council debated tho merits of requiring surfaced areas for parking, allowing crushed rock for surfacing and whether that requirement really addresses the problem. CITY OF APPLE VALLEY Dakota County, Minnesota October 12, 1989 Page 9 Jeff Weldon, of the Urban Affairs Committee, was present and said the Committee included all vehicles, in considering the ordinance, because it believed that was the Council's direction. Trailers and other vehicles are contributing to the weed problem where they are parking in backyards. In addition, the provisien of parking vehicles within 25 feet of the residence would not allow vehicles te be parked in the back of a lot and forgotten. Councilmember Goodwin questioned how the conditions for crushed rock would be defined; i.e., how large, deep, etc. Councilmember Savanick said the surfaced area should be further defined as to how much of a vehicle can overhang the surface. Councilmember Savanick called fer a vote en the question. Vote was taken on the motion. Ayes - 1 (Savanick) - Nays - 4. MOTION: of Humphrey, seconded by Goodwin, tabling the motion until the parking surface issues are clarified. Ayes - 4 - Nays 1 (Savanick). TABLE MOTION INFORMAL & SPECIAL MEETINGS Mr. Melena reminded the Council of the special meeting at 12:00 noon on October 17, 1989, for the City's bond sale. He also distributed a proposed agenda for the October 19, 1989, informal meeting set for 6:00 p.m. at City Hall. Mr. Sheldon advised the Council that the Court of Appeals issued its PALOMINO TWNHSE. decision in the St. Croix Development/Wellington Management lawsuit. ST. CROIX SUIT The Court of Appeals reversed the Trial Court's decision and ruled in favor of the City. He distributed copies of his letter dated October 10, 1989, detailing the decision to the Council.
