Richard Winkler FIRST-TIME HOME said he would like to discuss Dakota County bond money for first-time BUYER PROGRAM homebuyers. He would request that single family detached housing DISCUSSION buyers also be able to use the financing. Townhouse and condominium buyers, only, are eligible until November 15th. He has received many requests from people who want to buy single family homes for this program. Councilmember Savaniek said this program was approved in 1985 and perhaps is now outdated. Mr. Kelley said the program was structured for townhouse and condominium buyers for the first six months; then other housing is eligible. It was established to encourage attached housing which was deficient in the City. Councilmember Humphrey asked for a report on May 28, 1987, on the number of multiple family housing permits applied for, the number of single family lots available and information from developers on what will be available by the end of the year. Councilmember Savanick also asked for information at that meeting on whether the program can be modified. (Councilmember Goodwin attended at this time.)

CITY OF APPLE VALLEY Dakota County, Minnesota May 14, 1987 Page 5 Mr. Gretz reviewed his memo dated May 6, 1987, concerning traffic on PENNOCK AVENUE Pennock Avenue between 138th and 140th Streets. Traffic counts were TRAFFIC CONCERNS taken showing 2,200 vehicle trips per day in this area. Normal resi- dential traffic is considered to be 800 trips per day. Various alternatives to reduce traffic have been discussed with the residents who prefer closing the intersection at 138th Street. Staff would recommend prohibiting southbound traffic from 138th Street onto Pennock and consider closing the intersection, if needed, at a later date. Mike Thomas, 13875 Pennock, stated there are alternative routes for traffic other than through this neighborhood and said they prefer making it a cul de sac. Doug Ellingson, 13835 Pennock, said his property would be most affected by a cul de sac and he is willing to give up the land for it. Mayor Branning said there have been similar requests from other neighborhoods and the Council will have to be cautious about setting a precedent in any actions it may take. Councilmember Goodwin asked when a signal would be installed at 138th and Cedar? Mr. Gretz said he did not know and there is none included in the County C.I.P. for the next five years. The Council asked that other options be explored including: an acceleration lane on Cedar for southbound traffic; a Cedar frontage road between 138th and 140th Streets; and completing connection of Guild Avenue to 140th Street. MOTION: of Savanick, seconded by Goodwin, authorizing installation of curve signs with advisory speed limit signs on appropriate areas of Pennock between 138th and 140th Streets. Ayes - 5 - Nays - O. INSTALL CURVE SIGNS ON PENNOCK Several residents expressed concern that a one-way intersection at 138th would not solve the problem with northbound traffic including Dominofs delivery vehicles. Dallas Karl, 13989 Granada Court, asked that consideration be given to making Pennock a horseshoe by looping it back to 140th Street and extending it through undeveloped property to the east. Mr. Thomas expressed concerns for safety and continued police enforcement of the speed limit. Mayor Branning said the Council will try to do what is best for everyone concerned and look at alternates to solve the long term problem. Ne asked for a report at the May 28, 1987, meeting. Tim Erkila, of Westwood Planning & Engineering, was present and re- ATHLETIC COMPLEX viewed the specifications for the eastern athletic complex mechanical PROJECTS and plumbing work for an irrigation system and lighting.

Councilmember Humphrey said the City just passed a new sign ordinance and he does not agree with allowing a variance. Ashwin Shah, the petitioner, said he is requesting a pylon sign because Super Store's fence would block a ground sign and the 7-11 Store had a pylon sign. Mayor Branning asked if the Planning Commission looked at all signs proposed for the property and any remodeling? Ms. McMonigal said it did not. Mr. Shah said he will be taking the plywood off the windows which will remain as they were. He does not plan any changes to the building except some repairs and painting. He said he originally petitioned for RB zoning and compromised to NC-1 zoning believing RB signage would apply. He was advised that the proposed sign is a remanufactured 7-11 sign. MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Goodwin, amending the motion by granting the variance for the pylon sign only with any other signage on the property conforming to NC-1 requirements.

He will be using what is known as "clean fill" and creating a berm to buffer the property from future County Road 38. Mayor Branning asked what inspection procedures can be followed to ensure the fill is acceptable? Mr. Gretz said it can be inspected periodically, but it is intended to be done over a period of a year or more. The Mayor asked for a semi-annual review of the permit. Vote was taken on the motion. Ayes - 3 - Nays - 1 (Savanick) Humphrey Abstained.

Mayor Branning said further consideration of the space needs study for SPACE NEEDS City Hall was placed on the agenda following the Council's review April STUDY 30, 1987. He asked for a motion recognizing the need before proceeding with discussion. MOTION: of Savanick, seconded by Humphrey, recognizing the City has a SPACE NEED need for additional space. Councilmember Holton said when the last addition to City Hall was considered, it was recognized more space would be needed some day and it was constructed for a future addition. Councilmember Savanick said when she met in a goal setting session with staff, the number one problem was space and where to put additional staff proposed to be hired. Councilmember Holton said while more space is needed, there is a difference between critical and desired and he does not believe it is critical yet. MOTION: of Savanick, seconded by Humphrey, calling for a vote on the CALL FOR VOTE motion. Roll call vote was taken: Humphrey - aye, Savanick - aye, Branning ~ aye, Holton - aye, Goodwin - aye. Roll call vote was taken on the motion: Humphrey - aye, Savanick - aye, Branning - aye, Holton - aye, Goodwin - aye. MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Goodwin, to keep the Police Department POLICE/ADMIN and Administration consolidated in one facility. CONSOLIDATION Councilmember Humphrey said, for the long term, he would agree with this motion. If as the study goes on and economics prescribe separation for a short period of time, he would not rule it out. Councilmember Goodwin said these cannot be looked as simple yes or no questions; that may put them in conflict with themselves. The Mayor said they should be kept simple in trying to establish a goal. CITY OF APPLE VALLEY Dakota County, Minnesota May 14, 1987 Page 9 Vote was taken on the motion. Ayes - 4 - Nays - 1 (Savanick Abstained). MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Goodwin, because of cost, concentra- tion of activity and proximity to downtown, to remodel and expand City Hall on the existing site. REMODEL EXIST- ING SITE Mayor Branning asked the architect for comments on the study recommendation. Bob Russek said option 2.C, expanding on the current site, was the initial preferred recommendation based on economics and because the City already owns the land. There are disadvantages and problems with remodeling including trying to work with existing concrete block walls, angles and ductwork. As far as economics, it makes the most sense. As far as user satisfaction, a new building is generally better. Councilmember Goodwin said he would like to discuss this in connection with a government center campus concept. For the long range, such a complex would be preferred. For the short term, remodeling would be beneficial. MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Savanick, calling for a vote on the motion. Ayes - 2 (Holton and Savanick) - Nays - 3. Motion Failed. CALL FOR VOTE Councilmember Goodwin said looking at future population for the year 2000 and beyond, would make sense to look into the campus concept. The Mayor said the objective is to establish a goal and it may take some time to accomplish. Councilmember Savanick asked if the park area would be a problem in expanding City Hall? Mr. Russek said the building could be expanded upward, areas in the angles filled in and expanded to the southwest without spilling into the park if parking is adequate. Councilmember Holton said a City-County-School District complex would be desirable, however the School has indicated it would use an elementary school for future offices when one has been vacated. He would prefer keeping the City's identity rather than was done in Douglas Countyts complex. Councilmember Goodwin said he believes the motion is too extreme for this situation. The building may serve the City's purposes for 5 to 7 years with remodeling. Roll call vote was taken on the motion: Goodwin ~ nay, Holton - aye, Branning - nay, Savanick - nay, Humphrey - nay. Motion Failed. MOTION: of Humphrey, seconded by Savanick, consider a site in the general downtown Apple Valley vicinity for City Hall. CONSIDER DOWN- TOWN SITE The Mayor asked if site acquisition costs were contained in the study? Mr. Russek said the general price of land in Apple Valley was used with the library site as an example. Roll call vote was taken on the motion: Humphrey - aye, Savanick - aye, Branning - aye, Holton - nay, Goodwin - aye. Mr. Gretz said now that the Council has given direction, a recommendation along with financial data can be brought back to the Council. The Mayor said the Council has now established long term goals and he would agree to working with other governmental CITY OF APPLE VALLEY Dakota County, Minnesota May 14, 1987 Page 10 agencies on a site. Mr. Gretz said the Library Board recommendation to approve the agreement with the City will be presented to the County Board June 2, 1987. Interest in a joint venture could be discussed and he will also try to set up a meeting with the School District. MOTION: of Humphrey, seconded by Savanick, directing staff to prepare GOVERNMENT a resolution for the Council to review expressing the City's COMPLEX interest and willingness to enter into a joint venture with CONSIDERATION the County for a government complex. Councilmember Goodwin said his concept of the process is starting a dialogue with the other agencies; not to begin the purchase of land but look at interest and feasibility. Vote was taken on the motion. Ayes - 4 - Nays - 0 (Holton Abstained). MOTION: of Savanick, seconded by Holton, approving the additional HIRE PARTTIME parttime employees as listed in the Acting Administrator,s EMPLOYEES memo dated May 14, 1987. Ayes - 5 - Nays - O.
