Proposal for Government AffatrS Representab.on
St. Croix River Crossing
Subnutted by
Ted Thompson
Of Counsel
DeMay and AssoCtates
St. Paul, Mmnesota
Objective:
To secure a poslb.ve resolub.on regardmg a new nver crossmg over the St
Crotx m Sttllwater based on the "Braun C" proposal announced on September
28, 1998 as mochfied dunng the development, mtb.gab.on, and EIS processes
Clearly, tune is of the essence given the statements of MnDOT and the
pOSSibility that the Met Council could remove thts project from its hst of
pnonb.es. I am approaching th1S as a short-term, 'must do' proposal given that
1t may well be the final opportumty to get a new nver crossmg.
Government Relations:
Thts effort will mclude broad based government relatlons Wlth elected and
appomted offiCtals at the state and federal level I mtend to work With
Members of Congress (and the legislature 1f needed), Bush Admuustratlon
offiCtals, Ventura Admuustratlon offiCtals, and any other offiCtals who may
have mfluence or 11llpact With regard to a new nver crossmg. I have chscussed
th1S proposal With D1ck Braun who has offered hts asSistance, and mtend to
meet or speak With other stakeholders m an effort to enhst thetr support of thts
effort. I have also spoken With major busmess and orgaruzed labor mterests
about thts effort m an attempt to secure thetr support.
Communication:
I will be respons1ble to the aty of Stillwater and other entltles makmg a
finanaal contnbution to this effort It 1S mcumbent upon me to ensure timely
and accurate commW11cation of the status of my work. If possible, and to
ensure timeliness, I would hope to have ematl addresses for the key people m
order to keep them not:tfied of current events and when necessary, to ask for
thetr aSSistance With phone calls, etc

Public Relations/Grass Roots:
In adwtton to the government affairS component of tlus proJect, I enV1Sion
mamtauung a pubhc relat10ns and grass roots campatgn With the goal of re-
energtZmg the pubhc to secure adwtional support from the commuru.ty for thts
effort, especially m hght of what the pubhc hkely beheves 1S an unending
broken record. Keepmg the pubhc mformed on the status of the proJect
would not be done mdependently by any stakeholder or me I thmk 1t 18
unportant that we speak With one Y01Ce in order to show cons18tency and
unanmuty unless we make a tact1cal dec1s10n that there would be greater unpact
through a wfferent approach.
.
Related to thts 1S the approach taken With our pubhc offiaals The effort to get
a new bndge will not be advanced 1f the group or mWV1dual members pubhcly
attempt to embarrass elected or appomted offiaals. I know firsthand that thts
approach generally backfires and rather than bwldmg support With those you
need on your S1de, ahenatton occurs and support erodes. Making pOS1t1ve
pubhc comments 1S appropnate and again, 1t should be done as described m
the paragraph above.
Proposal:
Term of Contract:
Rate
Travel Expenses.
Other expenses'
3 months (March, Apnl, May)
S175/hour
Reunbursed by City
Any expenses relatmg to overn1ght dehvery semces,
etc. will be patd by the City. Mmunal office expenses
for copymg, etc. will be absorbed by me.
$5,000
Every two weeks
.
Retamer:
Btlhng penod:
The proposal includes workmg at the federal and state level to secure fundmg
and/or approvals necessary for const:ruct1on of a new Stillwater Bndge. It 18
anttCipated that a maJonty of the effort would be at the federal level mcludmg
both the legtslattve and execut1ve branches. State work would mclude
appropnate contact With state legu;lators, Met Counal offiCials, and MnDOT
offiCials, keepmg m mmd that the resolve to get tlus proJect done 1S at a low
ebb In order to be successful, thts effort must take mto account
transportatton, enVIronmental, and h18tonc preservatton needs cons1stent With
the development of thts proJect to date. In other words, attemptmg to address
all outstandmg issues 18 optunum, but the pnmary obJective will remam
secunng necessary approvals and fundmg to allow construct1on of a new
bridge.
In adwtton to finanaal support from the City of Stillwater, I have dtscussed a
pOSSible finanaal contnbut1on from the Bwldmg Trades and key maJor
busmesses m an effort to offset the overall cost of tlus contract to the City.
.
The Butldmg Trades have expressed mterest m partlC1pating and I will follow-
up Wlth them upon approval of this proposal.
.
I will work on a multi-pronged approach m an effort to secure a pOS1tive
dtspOS1tion of thts 1ssue. I have dtscussed those strategies Wlth Mayor Kunble
and will develop a wntten outhne of each strategy 1f requested

THE LOWELL PARK RENOV A T][ON PLAN
DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF
ELMORE LOWELL
1861-1936
Mr. Ehnore Lowell was the famous host of the Sawyer
House Hotel. Long after Mr. Lowell sold the hotel, the
structure was demolIshed. and a new hotel was hUllt wluch
would. hear Ilus name, "The Lowell Inn". Mr. Lowell
traveled around the world after Ius retirement, returning
to Stillwater hetween trips. During tlus period he volun-
teered. Ius time to create a park out of the unsightly river-
front In Downtown Stillwater. In 1908, the park whICL.
was then known as Levee Park, was renamed Lowell
Park In honor of Mr. 'Lowell's energies during the parks
early development. In 1909, Mr. Lowell donated a gift of
$5000 for pArk improvements.
The Stillwater Park Board was formed und.er tL.e CI(y
Cb.arter In 1916. Mr. Lowell was a memher of the origi-
nal hoard and held the office of preSIdent from
1916-1935. Mr. Lowell recognized the uDlqueness of
the Stillwater waterfront.
Elmore Lowell had a VISion to make tL.e waterfront of
Stillwater an attractive place for all ItS Citizens, and a
place wlluch recalled. the formal parks he saw In Europe.
.
.
He ahandoned Ius extenSIve travel and settled. clown In
Stillwater. Mr. Lowell then employed the firm of Mor-
rell and Nichols to carry out hiS dream of creating a Stil-
lwater riverfront park.
Between the years of 1916 to 1935 under Mr. Lowell's
direction, the park 'became tb.e most beautiful park In the
St. CroIx Valley.
Mr. Lowell's unselfish and generous donations are a great
CIVIC contrl'butIon.
The Lowell Park Renovation Plan replIcates the earlIer
Morrell and Nichols park. The current plan was d.evel-
oped With a strong respect for lustory and. the past, publIc
Input and partiCipation, and a City CounCil committed to
maintain Lowell Park as the most beautiful park In the
St. CroIx Valley.
The Lowell Park Renovation Plan IS a representation of
Stillwater's historIC cb.a.racter and qualIty. Through. plan
Implementation, tL.e community Will enJOY and experience
a piece of history -- Mr. Lowell's Dream -- on the
banks of the St. CroIx River.

INTRODUCTION

East of the centrallm.smess district of StIllwater IS Lowell
!Park. This historIC park stretches from Mulherry Street south
to Nelson Street, hounded on the west hy an actIve railroad and
on the east hy the scemc St. CroIx RiveI'. The park is used for
a variety of CIVIC funchons and events, Including the Rivertown
Art F au, L1ID.JDherJack Days, and WAter MUSIC. Currently,
most of the events take place m the south half of the park,
Along with these larger plAnned community events, the park
IS Also used for smaller, Impromptu acttvlt.es mcludmg picmck-
mg And strollmg. A few picmc taMes, scattered henches And a

these uses.
The park accommodates variOus practIcal or uhhtarlAn
functIons as well. The City FlI'e DepArtment replemshes ItS
fue truck tanks With water drawn from the river At Levee
Road.. AdditionAlly, though rather Inappropriately, the park IS
used as a parJ.ung areA for automohiles And hoat trailers. The
IAunchmg of hoats also takes place along Mulherry !POint's
shorelme.
Just to the west of the Site, m a parkmg area off Nelson
Street, IS the mam stagmg area for a commercial venture, the
Rlvertown Trolley. The Trolley, A ruhher wheeled vehICle,
trAverses the city streets, recountIng the story of StIllWAter and

PARK HISTORY
The area now known AS Lowell Park WAS m the early and
mId 1880's for the most part non-exutent. Most of the park lay
In area that was under water untIl 1852 when a massIve land-
shde from the Muffs to the west fIlled a large portIon of the riv-
erfront. Later, railroad. backs were bUIlt on a network of
trusses and "brIdges out over the river. Slowly over time the area
"between the shore and tracks WAS fIlled and raised. The un-
planned and rapid development of the riverfront created a rather
unSIghtly enVIronment durmg the late 1800's. In fact, Lowell
Park WAS a dumpmg ground for many of the neighboring com-
merCIal and loggmg esta"bhshments. Then around PHI thmgs

Legan to change when park Improvelnents were made In the area
south of the brul.ge. The impl'ovelnents mclud.ed. an attrachve
concrete bench-wall overlooking the river, a (Win set of paths
adorned. With a florallned.lan striP, Informal garden paths, hedg-
mg and other plant materials, and an open lawn area beauhfled
With ornamental benches. In a.d.dlhon, a levee wall construded
of stone and a 40 foot Wide boat landing was constructed from
which river boat pa(rons could embark and disembark. Then
(he park was referred (0 as Levee Park.
In 1916, the well-known landscape Archl(ectural fUIn, Mor-
rell and NIChols, was retained to prepare plans for the park area
north of the bridge. Elmore Lowell generously covered most of
the costs Incurred m the preparatIon and Implementa(lon of the
plans. The plAn mclud.ed. the additional fillIng and grading of the
riverfront, (he crea(lon of a. formal 'Sunken Gard.en' including a

Durmg thiS period, the Northern Pacific Railroad turned
over to the Park CODlDllsslon a small park or square next to the
U mon Stahon on South Water Street, between the Union S(a-
hon and the Lumbermens' Exchange ]BuIldmg. It was S(lpU-
lated that thiS land be used for park purposes. ThiS small park
was incorporated Into the Morrell and Nichols Plan and served
as a valua.Lle lInk between the riverfront park and the
downtown.
The Implemen(ahon of the Ma.ster Plan occurred slowly but
perSIstently With the cea.seless dedlcahon of Elinore Lowell.
Improvemen(s Included the mstallahon of a flagpole and a drink-
Ing fountain In 1917. Later, In 1922, the land to the north of

They Incl1Ulded the regrading of the formal 'Sunken Gardens,'
the development of a traffiC Clrcle-hke element at the west end
of the Lift Bridge, landscaping, and a pedestrian and vehicular
hrldge 1Ulnderpass.
Later In 1'932, Mr. Lowell's generoSIty was again made eVI-
dent hy hiS funding the erection of a handstand at Mulherry
Pomt. The handstand remained. there untIll '938 when It was
moved to a lot In the city's Staple May AdditIon. It apparently
was moved antIcipatIng the construction of a new floatIng dock
that was to serve AS a performance area. It appears that per-
formances never materlahzed at the floatIng dock locatIon.
The dock constr1Ulchon was h1Ult component of a masSIve levee

part of the levee proJect. Its mod.lfled deSIgn replaced. the trel-
hsed roofs with sohd ones and the steps down to the lower levee
were shifted out from wlthm the structure. A drmlung foun-
tam was located m the center of the paVlhon.
The park remamed fau-ly much unchanged from the 1940's
to the mid 50's. In 1956, a. modernizatIon proJect resulted In
one m.&Jor change to the park. The paVlhon was enclosed and
converted Into a restroom hUlldlng. The City Pump House was
razed In 1960. It was located. at the park's southern end, near
Nelson Street. The p1lllJllp house, InuIt around 1886, was an
InterestIng hrlck structure, round In footprint, twelve feet In
diameter, With a COnical metal roof. In 1958 Its function had

ThiS nond.escrlpt hrlck structure IS Inehglhle for the NatIonal

Also, In the early 1960's, numerous sheds and tanks In the

ment and Oil storage. Research indicates that they were of httle
historical Slgmflcance to the City.
In the mid 1980's a renewed Interest In the park resulted In
a numher of SIgnificant Improvements. First, the paVlhon was
opened up a.nd restored to ItS earher, more grand, 1930's appear-

north and south ends of the park.
Few other dramatic cltanAes kve occurred at Lowell Park
Since the mid-80's. Unfortu.nately however, lnllldin; structures,
gardens and other park elements kve heen permitted to deterio-
rate. In was the rallnd deAeneration of the levee wall and shore-
line deterioration tkt l.a.stened the commencement of this
study.
The Lowell Park Master Plan Study comes on the heels of
Stillwater's Downtown Plan - Phase One Implementation.
The Shllwater Downtown Plan, prepared In Decemher of
1988, Identified goals, ohJechves and AUldehnes to direct future
d.evelopment In Stillwater. The Plan focused primarily on the
central huslness district, hut development g1ll1dehnes and pre-
ferred land uses were sU33ested for LowellPal'k.

THE DOWNTOWN PLAN
DESIGN GUIDELINES:
As suggested In the Stillwater Downtown Plan the deSign
gUidelines for Lowell Park are to:
1. develop a contInUOUS riverfront pedestrian
walkway linking new and eXisting areas of
downtown,
.
2. create regular visual and pedestrian access
corridors linking tbe riverfront, Lowell
Park wdb MAIn Street and "eyond,
3. upgrade Mull,erry POint to tbe passive rec-
reatIOnal and pedestrian cbaracter defined by
tbe Morrell and Nlcbols Lowell Park
Plans,
4. consolidate "oat launcb and veblCles wdh
trailer parking at tbe eXistIng marina sde
and eventually nortb or soutb of downtown,
5. develop ftfull,erry Street Into a more formal
'processional' "oulevard, lInking tbe rIVer-
front and Main Street,
6, deSign parking to serve I,oth tbe downtown
and tbe park and screen views of parking
from wltbln tbe park, and lastly
7, prOVide for sbort term docking along lower
levee,
PREFERRED LAND USES
The Shllwater Downtown Plan of 1988 suggests tkt
Lowell Park he heUer Integrated Into the City's parks and
open space system. PasSIve recreatIonal uses hased on the hiS-
toric Morrell and Nichols Plans Will he encouraged.

THE LOWELL PARK MASTER PLAN
The tasks of thiS Master Plan was to prepare conceptual
drawings for the reconstructIon of the Levee Wall, to prepare
deSIgn development drawings for the Improvement and extension
of Lowell Park and to indiCAte recommendatIons for Improve-
ment to the areas Immediately west of Lowell !Park.
The deSIgn of the park accommodates eXisting and future
park uses and IS senSItIve to the original Lowell !Park plan pre-
pared by Morrell and Nichols.
ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY
It IS qUite pOSSible that hustorlc artlfacis Will be unearthed
In the ImplementatIon of thiS plan and therefore It IS strongly
recommended. that an archaeological representatIve be present
during constructIon excava.tIon operatIons. AdditIonally, histor-
IC artIfacis and bUilding foundatIons discovered Will be incorpo-
rated Into the park's Interpretahon system.
SUPPLEMENTARY FUNDING
Lowell Park was prinCipally the resuli of the selfless giVing
of Elmore Lowell. To c.arry on thiS tradition, phllallthroplc
donahons Will he encouraged to further supplement Improve-
ments to Lowell Park. BUSinesses, InstItutuons, reSIdents and
VISItors ahke Will be encouraged to do their CIVIC duty and save
thIS wonderful landmark of a park. Addlhonally, thiS plan
.
suggests that the Elmore Lowell Trust fund contInue to be used
for Lowell !Park upkeep and Improvements.
VEHICULAR CIRCULATION
LEVEE ROAD: The Lowell !Park Master !Plan sug-
gests changes to the current vehicular and pedestrian CirculatIon
systems. Probably the most dramatIc change to the system IS the
elIminatIon of vehlC1llllar traffIC from Levee Road. It IS recom-
mended that the levee roadway be transformed Into a pedestrian
riverfront promenade hned With ornamental hght standards,
henches and other SIte amenitIes. The ahgnment Will remain
relatIvely unchanged, respecting the original deSIgn. It IS sug-
gested that a more park-hke pavement material be used to re-
place the current h~tumlnous surfacing. Concrete surfaCing
With a paver border IS the recommended surfacing material.
The promenade Will be deSigned to accommodate occasional use
by emergency vehicles, including fire trucks.
CUL-DE-SACS, To permit convenIent vehicular access
to the park and the riverfront the !Plan proposes the develop-
ment of two cul-de-sacs. One of the cul-de-sacs IS at termina-
tIon of Mulberry Street and the other at Nelson Street. The
Mulberry Street cul-de-sac Will be Integrated With the develop-
ment of a Performance Area. During large events at the

road. One-way vehlcula.r cll'culatlon will he estabhshed and
short-term drop-off parkmg will Le mcorpora.(ed along the north
half of the cul-de-sac.
The Nelson Street cul-de-sac will be developed wah a. more
pedestrian scale. It will have a tIght velllcular turnmg radll a.nd
a narrow roadwa.y width (0 slow traffiC, Vehlcula.r cll'cula.hon
will he hmlted to one wa.y traffic. The cul-de-sac with ItS paved
surmountahle traffic Island will he deSigned to accommodate the
turnIng radll of emergency vehicles turnIng from Nelson Sbeet
on to the Levee Road.
PARKING AREAS: The Mastel' Plan, m accordance
the StIllwater Downtown Pla.n, suggests the ehmma.tIon of ex-
IstIng parkmg from wI(hm (he pa.rk ]propel'. The eXistIng pa.rkmg
a.rea wlthm the pa.rk IS prmClpally located from the eXlshng pa.-
vlhon up and a.round Mulherry Pomt, The parlung will be re-
located to a spme-hke arrangement of pa.rkmg ba.ys a.long the
western edge of the park as suggested in the Downtown Plan.
The relocatIon of the pa.rkmg a.reas along the western edge of
the park Will result m a net ga.m of 75 paved parkmg spaces.
ThiS calcula.tIon IS based on eXistIng paved and striped parking
spaces as compared to proposed parking spaces. It mcludes all
pa.rkmg spaces situated he tween (he shorehne and the ra.llroad
tracks.
.
I
Planting Islands, screenIng hedges and area. hghtIng Will be
senSItIvely mcorporated Into the design of these parkmg areas to
minimize their Impact and Improve their appearance. Strong
landscaped connedlons are suggested through the parkmg areas
to hnk the park wI(h the down(own area.
I
I
BOA T LA UNCH: The Mastel' Plan, m agreement With
the Downtown Plan, suggests that the eXlstmg privately owned
hoat launch al Mulberry POint be ehmma.ted. Its ehmmatIoft
Will he tImed to correla.(e with the developmen( of a new DNR
hoat launch planned to the south of StIllwater, near the power
plant. The optIon of relocahng the launch to the north IS also
suggested for fur(her explorahon.
I
I
ROUNDABOUT: Chestnut Street Improvem.ents at the
wes( end of the Lift Bridge are suggested. When a new High-
way 36 hrldge IS bUilt across the St. CroIx River and If traffiC
counts across the eXlShng hft bridge are hml(ed to local traffiC It
IS sugges(ed tha.t a traffiC Island be const:ructed m the cen(er of
the roadway, The development of thiS traffiC Island Will slow
traffiC, and permit safer pedestrian cll'culahon between the

prOVide a. strategic locahon for an entrance SIgn to the City.
It IS a.lso suggested that a stop SIgn be placed at or near the

ARCHITECTURE AND STRUCTURES
I
LEVEE WALL: The park structure m (he most Im-
mediate need of attentIon IS (he Levee Wall. The de(erloratIng
condition of the walliS well d.ocumented m the, ErOSion Protec-
tion Wall InsoectIon - Lowell Park, dated Odoher 10, 1991,
as prepared hy [SEH] Short ElhoH Hendrickson, Inc. The
purpose of that study was to address the rema.lnmg service hfe of

.
the wall. The report Indicates that to mmlmlze deterioration to
the upper wall and thus reduce repair costs to the Levee Wall
System the followmg measures must he taken.
1. ReIPlace lower wall south of lmt/ge,
2. ReIP41.r lower wall north of I,I'It/ge.
3. ReIPlace wharf sIal,.
4. Rep41.r minor deterioration of uIPIPer wall.
The Levee Wall was deSigned and constructed m the late
1930's. The primary purpose of the walliS for eroSIon protec-
tion. ThiS Will rema.m ItS primary purpose. It con61lsts of a low-
er wall, a fourteen feet Wide landing and an upper retainIng wall.
The (op of the lower wall and concrete wharf hes approxlma.tely
two feet ahove the normal river level. The upper retamms wall
extends five feet ahove the concrete wharf, or approxlma.tely
seven feet ahove norma.l river level.
ThIS Plan adopts comm.ents and recomm.endatIons made m
the SEH report. AdditIonally, thiS plan calls for the repair,
restoration and extenSIon of the Levee Wall recalling much of
the orlgmal deSign and detalhng. The mtroductIon of a halus-
trade and cham system With a safety curh or wheel stop along the
edge of the wharf IS suggested. The estahhshment of planters
and additional stairways made Integral wI(h the levee wall are
also suggested. Wider more generous steps, are shown to the
. north of the eXlstmg pavlhon. They are to serve not only as
steps hut also for mforma.l seatmg overlooking (he river.
The Levee Wall Will also he graced With hronze pla.ques ac-
cordmg to thiS plan. Large plaques Will prOVide an educational
experience for park VISItors. InformatIon ahout the his(ory of
Stillwater and Lowell Park Will he the s1llhJect of the Informa.-
hon. Additionally, a hronze wall fountam Will he mstalled at

the levee wall where the relntrodu.ced sprlns fed creek meets the
levee wall and emptIes into the river.
The deSIgn of the levee wharf, north of the paVilIon, Will ac-
commodate short-term. hoa.t docking. To discourage the river-
front from hecomlng a parlung lot for hoats, the design Will
prOVide a lImited, yet flexlhle, area for short term docking. The
halustrade and chain system Will he deSIgned to he eaSIly ad-
Justed If In the future It hecomes deSlrahle to expand or restrict
the amount of short term hoat docking at the park. A docking
time lImit could also he Imposed.
An extenSIve supervised tranSient hoat docking faCIlIty has
heen proposed in thiS study [refer to AppendiX D). The loca.-
tion of the docks would he Just to the north of the Alple proper-
ty and south of the Nelson Street cul-de-sac. ThiS tranSIent
hoat doclung faCIlIty will accommodate those hoaters wantIng to
dock for longer periOds of tIme or those wantIng the security of-
fered by a superVised facilIty,
It IS recommended that the Levee Wall he extended to the
north and south of Lowell Park. On the north end of the park,
the wall Will extend up and around Mulherry POint. Grades at
Mulherry POint Will then he raised to reduce the duratIon and
frequency of flooding. Changes to the elevatIonll at Mulherry
POint Will necesSItate flood-control mitIgatIon. The shorelIne
mlhgatIon may result In the need for shorelIne dredging at the
K.ollIner !Park. More In depth study of mitIgation requirements
Will he needed and IS heyond the scope of thiS plan.
At the south end of the park It IS suggested that the levee
wall he extended southward and around the Dock Cafe.
PrinCipal reasons for extending the levee wall and raising
grades at Mulherry POint are to:
1, Reduce duratIOn and frequency of flooding at
Munerry Pomt.
.
I
2. Create an opportunity for tbe incorporation
of ramps, Tbe ramps would permit VIsitors
WltL. dlsalnlltles access to tbe lower levee,
flsblng pier and waterfront.
J. Create a more Integrated sL.orellne element
to tbe P arl.

.(, Control sborellne erosIOn.

FISHING PIER: The reintroductIon of a historic park
element, a fishing pier off the paVilIon IS planned. The floating
pier system would he seasonal. It IS suggested that the pier Will
be floated up or down river for winter storage.
I
I
PERFORMANCE STRUCTURE: As late as 1938,
the city operated a hand stand at Mulherry POint. The Master
Plan suggests Its reintroductIon. Unfor<.unately, research has
not uncovered any photographs of the original handstand at the
pOint. Therefore, With lIttle clue as to the deSIgn of the original
structure, thiS plan suggests that the structure he deSIgned to
complement the eXisting park structures, prinCipally the paVil-
Ion. The structure will he constructed of wood or a Similar ma-
terial and reflect the Prairie-style architecture of the eXistIng
paVilIon.
The performance structure Will he supplIed With adequate
electru:a.l service and stage. lIghting for large performances and
musIc concerts. The structure Will he adorned With a large

northern half of the park. Like the new performance area, the
restroom will he of a Prairie-style deSIgn that complements oth-
er structures Within the park. An exterior wall-hung drinking
fountain Will be Incorporated In the design of the hUlldlng.
Like the restroom faclhty, the drinking fountain Will he accesSl-
Me to persons With dlsalnhtIes. A pay phone Will he Installed on
the exterior of the bUilding.
EXISTING RESTROOM / LIFTSTATION IM-
PROVEMENTS: The eXisting restroom and hft-statlon fa-
clhty located at the south end of the park are slated for
Improvement In thiS plan. The plan calls for a hipped roof to he
added to the fiat roof of the eXISting hft station. The new roof
shall match that on the lower restroom portion of the structure,
With respect to pitch and deSign. The IntrodmctIon of founda-
tion plantIngs IS also suggested. A pay phone and a handicap ac-
cesSlhle drinking fountain Will he added to the exterior of the
eXisting structure.
EXISTING PAVILION: The plan suggests that a mi-
nor modification to tl\e pavlhon he made to accolWllodate hoat
storage In ItS lower level. Restoration of the eXisting grillwork
In the foundation wall Will he required, as Will the installation of
a new door opening In the foundahon. The door openmg Will he
at the south end of hllllldlng's lower level.
RECREATION
INFORMAL GREENSPACE: The reclamation of
the original park greens pace to the south has also he suggested m
thiS plan. The rehlrth of the tWin paths wah their perennial
.
median and the Lowell Statue, sited In this area., Will serve as
thIS area's maJor focus. Additionally, Informal walks and occa-
SIOnal henches Will heneflt the park users. The open lawn area
Will create a comfortahle SIte for hlanket pICnicking.
LOWELL STATUE: A statue m honor of Elmore
Lowell for hIS seIness giVing to the park and the city IS proposed
In the southern Informal greenspace, The statue IS to placed In
the location originally suggested to receive a statue in the Morell
and Nichols Plan of 1914, The hronze statue Will he a hfe-Slze
reproduction of Mr. Lowell. The statue Will he set on a cast
stone hase.
FORMAL GARDEN: The restoration of the formal
gardens deSIgned hy Morell and Nichols IS recolWllended hy thIS
plan. The reintroduction of the cast stone fountain and water
feature Will serve as the main focal pOint of the garden. Colorful
perennials Will grace the horder of the garden area and numerous
henches wIllproVld.e ample opportunities for rest.
PLA Y AREA: The plan suggests the remtroductIon of a
children's play area to the park. This would he In addition to
the play opportunities presented hy the reintroduction of the
sprmg fed creek to the park. The planned play area would he
SIted In an area fairly close to the original play area defmed In
the Morrell and Nichols Plan. The play area would Include a
custom playstructure located In an area surfaced With reSlhent
pavers. The playstructure would meet current apphcahle safety
gmdehnes and requirements. The deSIgn of the playstructure
must complement, and not compete With the nearhy JP&Vlhon.
The vertical post elements of the playstructure may recall the
deSign and scale of the wood columns of the eXisting paVlhon.
The playstructure Will he painted to match the paVIlIon. No

SPRING FED CREEK: The reintroductIon of the
creek that once graced this heautiful park has heen proposed In
thiS plan, The creek, hned with landscape houlders and water-
SIde plantIngs, will he hrought to the surface near Main Street
and Mulberry Street. Currently the creek flows to the river In
underground pipe. COinCIdentally, the water feeding thiS creek
serves as the cliy's water supply.
The feaSlhlhty for hrlnglng the creek io the surface IS Le-
yond ihe scope of ihls proJect. It IS Included In the deSIgn of
Lowell Park as a reconunended Improvement merItIng further
study,
PERFORMANCE AREA: A large open lawn area
around the performance structure has heen shown at Mulberry
POint. ThiS area Will he used to accommodate such large events,
as LumherJack Days, Water MUSIC and the Art Fall'.
.
ENVIRONMENT
Lowell Park IS SItuated WIthin the 100 year floodplain.
The Master Plan calls for the extension of the Levee Wall and
the raIsing of exutIng grades at Mulherry POint to minimize
flooding, however, occasional floodl~g of the park should he
expected. The utIhzatlon of flood tolerant plant speCIes will
mui.IDllze plant losses.
In additIon, since Lowell Park IS of hIstorical SignIficance to
StIllwater and for that matter the state, the installatIon of au.-
thentIc period plantlngs will he encouraged. It IS suggested that
au.thentIc period plantlngs Le u.sed In the new plantIngs at the
park. These period plantings can Le defined as plant materIals
ihat were commonly available and frequently used during the
early 1900's. ThiS was the period when the park was Lelng de-
veloped, The plantIng of such period plants Will estahhsh yet
another resou.rce for interpretatIon for the vIsitor. Unfortu-
nately, however, many of these earher used plani materials are
no longer readily avallaMe. In such cases, plant materials of the
same specIes thai exhlhlt SImIlar characterIStIcs WIll be utIhzed
when possllle.
A tahle cross referenCing water tolerant plants and plants
historically used during ihe tIme of Lowell Park's development
has been Included In tillS plan.

MAINTENANCE
The sardens proposed in the Master Plan for LowelllPark
wlllundouLtedly require exceptIonal maintenance If the park IS
to he the Jewel It was originally Intended. Current funds for
such extensive park maintenance are limited and Inadequate.
The Master Plan suggests that Lesldes the usual city and park
maIntenance, a V olunteer Corp should he estahhshed. The
purpose of the Volunteer Corp would he to maintain the park's
plantlnSs and gardens. The volunteers could perform such dutIes
as plantIng, weeding, watering, fertihzlng, mulching and prumng.
DeSIgn of the gardens, Including plant species selectIon, however,
shall Le the work of profeSSional landscape architects and
deSlsners.
A paid Volunteer Coordinator posItIon should Le created Ly
the City to most effectIvely nurture the V olunteer Corp pro-
gram, The dutIes of the coordmator Will Include the preparatIon
of task descriptions, recruitment, assignment, training and su-
perVISIon of volunteers. In addition, the coordinator needs to
nurture the volunteer program Ly creatIng a working enViron-
ment that encourages the retamage and contInued return of vol-
unteers over tIme hy satIsfymg there needs and acknowledging
their efforts [refer to the taMe on the oppoSIte page].

VANDALISM AND SITE SECURITY
~
In order to mlnim12;e v~dahsm and Improve park safety the
plan emphasiS that repairs of damaged park elements Le made
promptly, wlthm days. GraffitI should Le removed lInm.edlately.
Generally, the appearance of puLlic property effects how people
treat and use the space. ThiS plan suggests that the park he
maintained adequately With an emphasiS on preventIve mamte-
nance and repair.
AdditIonal hghtIng and hopefully Increased park usage Will
also mlDlID.IZe opportunitIes for crime and vandahsm.
CHARACTER SKETCHES AND
PLAN DETAIL PLANS
The drawmgs on the follOWing pages attempt to convey the
character of Improvements to the park proposed Ly thiS plan.
The scale of the park and the compleXity of the SIte and adjacent
uses Will undouhtedly require more In-depth study as Imple-

SITE HISTORY
THE LUMBER MILLS
Industry has played an Important part In the development of
the Alple Property. ]Back In the 1873 the Hersey, ]Bean and
]Brown Company opened a mill, known as the Northwestern
Mills, on the SIte. ThiS mill was the second of two mills owned
hy Staples. The first was located on North MaIn Street. At
that time hmher was floated down the St, CroIx River to the
hoom SIte and mill. From there finished or manufa.ctured lumher
was shipped hy rail to various markets. As rail service Improved
to Shllwater later In 1800's less and less hmher was arriVIng to
the mills hy way of the river. The railroads made the hooms ob-
solete, Then In 1888 railroad scales were constructed by the
Chu:ago, MInneapohs, St. Paul & Omaha Railroad Company.
They were located adJacent to and Just to the west of the mills .
The scales remaIned unh11900.
The Northwest Mills complex was q1llllte large and occupied
almost one mile of the riverfront. The mill also owned and oper-
ated a general merchandise store. The store IS heheved to have
heen nestled Into the bluff on the west SIde of MaIn Street now
occupied hy a diner and service stahon.
Increasing costs of produchon, Increasing dutances to ma.r-
kets and a diminIShIng supply of hmher brought ahout the de-
clIne of lumherlng and mill operahons at the Alple Property.
The dechne eventually necesSItated the closure of the North-
western Mills In 190-4 and most of the mill related structures
were removed prior to 1910. Today, however, remnants of some
of these structures remaIn. One remna.nt IS the stone founda-
hon of a Hersey & Bean Store and Office structure, "bUilt Into
the slope on the east SIde of MaIn Street, opposite the SIte of an
.
.6
eXistIng dIner. Another remnant IS the stone and hrlck founda-
hon walls of the Saw Mill. An Intereshng openIng In the
foundahon wall and other detailIng are beheved to he remnants
of a flue that at one time tunneled. under MaIn Street. It con-
nected the mill With a stone structure, pOSSIbly a chimney,
across the street.

THE RAILROADS
I
I
The railroads also played a SIgnificant role In the develop-
ment of Shllwater and the Alple Property. The St. Paul, Shl-
lwater and Taylor's Falls Ra.llroad Company, Incorporated In
1869, first hnked St. Paul With Stillwater In 1872. The
tracks were bUilt out over the river on trestles and hrldges set on

wooden posts. The tr~s traveled north up the river past the
Alple Property, then the site of the Northwestern Mills. The
rail hne terminated at a freight depot. The depot, Sltua.ted on
trestles out over the water at ahout Pine Street, was surrounded
hy wooden platforms. The freight depot was hUllt In 1872, and
In 1884 It was converted. to warehouse use. It was later com-
pletely removed. around. 1900. A wood frame passenger depot,
also LUllt hy the St. Paul, StIllwater and. Taylor's Falls Rail-
road. Company In 1872, was SItuated. on what IS now Main
Sireet. It was to the south and west of the freight depot. ThiS
d.epot was not long hved. for In 1883 It was d.emohshed. when It
was hought hy the Chicago, St. Paul, Mlnneapohs & Omaha
Railroad.. The railroad. hUllt a new d.epot closer to the

BARGE OPERA TIONS
Barge OperaiIons have played and. contInue to play an Im-
poriant role In the development of the Alple Property. The
general use of thIS Slie for harge operatIons goes hack to the
iurn-of-the-century. In ihe 20's ihe harges were even used. to
hrmg SIsal up the St. CroIx for use In tWlne-malung Ly Inmates
at the State Prison.
In 1927 ihe St. CroIX Barge Terminal Company hegan
operatIons at Alple. T od.a.y, harge operatIons_ conilnue at ihe
site. Alple Towing, und.er the same ownership as the St. CroIx
Barge Terminal Company, runs operatIons and. occupies numer-
ous structures on the SIte. At ihe north end. one structure

Kolhner Park is a twenty-sIX: acre site across the St. CroIx
from downtown ShllwaLer. The SIte, SItuaLed In WiSCOnSin, IS
owned hy the City. It was closed In 1979 due to growing con-
cerns of vandahsm and traffiC congeshon at the easL end of the
Lift Bridge,

Proposed uses for thiS area should resolve junsdlctlonal and
law enforcement Issues, as well as permit superviSIOn of uses at

The relatively remote location, though an asset, has some
drawbacks The perceived dIstance to cross the nver to town

Signs of past floodmg are VlSllle. Branches, logs and man-

Proposed uses should be deSigned to Withstand flooding and
explore methods of reducing the extent of flooding In the park.

Conversely, VIews of Kolhner are highly vISlMe from the down-

entICing enVlronm.ent as viewed from town.
SITE HISTORY
Like the Alple !Property the Kolhner Park SIte owes much
of ItS history to the logging Industry. In 1917 the East Side
LumLer Company gave the land to the City of Stillwater. In a
leHer dated, March 12, 1917 the preSIdent of the company,
DaVid Bronson, descrlLed the company's intentions for the gen-
erous donatIon.
"In gIVIng tlus to tbe City It IS wltb tbe feeling and de-
sire tbat tbe MufEs Will /'e preserved from devastation of
commercial usage and tbe /'eauty of tbem kept for all our
people and to tbls end we bope you Will see fit to pl1d tbe
property under the JurisdICtion of your Park Board, We
bope tbat In tbe years to come that tbe sbore rights Will
also /prove of additional value to the City."

Ing hiS great displeasure with the City wluch at that tIme was

TOURIST CAMP
In 192"l1 due In part to Elmore Lowell's Interest In the
Mlnneapohs Pa.rk System, a T 01lD.rISt Ca.m.p was h1lll11t on the
northern half of Kolhner. Mr. Lowell had. vISIted Minnehaha
Park In Mlnneapohs and was so greatly Impressed With the new-
ly constructed Tourist Ca.m.p there that he encouraged the de-
velopment of one for StIllwater. The Ca.m.p had a camp kitchen
and "boat dock fa<ahtIes and. was operated and maintained "by the
Park Board.

BA THING BEACH
In 1931 the American Legion requested the Park Board
construct a pu"bhc hatlnng Leach at Kolhner, south of the "bridge.
The Park Board granted the request and hUllt the "beach and In
additIon, supphed the Leach With hfe guards, and a caretaker
that hved at the beach SIte. Remnants of the caretaker's home,
the stone foundatIon and hrlck chimney, can stIll he seen. An
attractive stone retaining wall surrounding the "bathhouse was
later constructed In 1937. In 1941, the American Legion
turned over operatIon of the heach to the City, however, the
City requll'ed the Legion to maintain supervised management of
the beach (I.e. hll'lng hfe guards). A caretaker hved at the
"beach through the 1960's,
In 1976, as part of the bicentennial celebratIon, the access
roadway leading to the beach was curhed and paved, U nfortu-
nately, a short tIme later, In 1979, the "beach and park was
closed. ThiS was done In part due to Increased vandahsm at the
park and traffIC congestIon at the east end of the Lift Bridge.

Likewise, we strive to accurately represent the position to candidates to prevent unrealistic
expectations.
Consultant
James L. Brimeyer
Jim has twenty years of experience in public sector management and has been involved in
executive search since 1uly, 1988. Mr. Brimeyer served in public administration in four cities,
three as City Manager, including his last position in St. Louis Park, Minnesota (1980 to 1988),
with a budget of $28 million and 230 employees. He also served in Worthington, Ohio (1974

The Search Process
Because of the extended time period to complete the search for the City ~dministrator, we do
not anticipate commencing the search untillune, 2001. It is our intention to complete the .
process in November, 2001 and the selected City Administrator would report to work the first
week in January, 2002. We have prepared a preliminary timetable which corresponds to the
various steps in the process. After further discussions with the City we will refine the
timetable.
PHASE I
Position Profile
A successful search begins with a thorough definition and agreement by the City on each aspect
of the position to be filled. During this initial phase, our consultants will meet individually
with the City Council, Department Heads, and key staff to learn more about your goals and
objectives. We would also propose to confer with other individuals or groups that have
knowledge about the position. This may include consultants used by the City and others who
have worked with and for the organization. Critical factors to be determined include position .
responsibility and authority, reporting relationships, educational and experience requirements,
personal and leadership qualities, and management style.
Of equal importance to the success of the search is identifying the community priorities and
environment in which the City Administrator must function. We would expect to meet with
selected representatives from the community to further assess the climate within which the
selected candidate will most effectively perform. This may be accomplished through individual
interviews or through a public forum.
During this Phase, we will pay considerable attention to establishing organizational goals and
priorities for the position. The identification of priorities serves a two-fold purpose: It assists
the hiring authority in developing a consensus on what is important for the organization and it
alerts potential candidates to the important issues of the organization.
Prior to our meetings we will supply an Ideal Candidate Profile Survey to assist the
interviewees in assembling their ideas on what should be included in the Position Protile.
As a result of the meetings we will reach an understanding of the critical specifications of the
position and we will draft a Position Profile. A great deal of emphasis is placed on the
agreement of this analysis. Without this information, it is difficult to determine how potential
candidates will affect the City's plans and organizational team. The final Position Protile, after
approval by the City Council, becomes the document against which we evaluate prospective
candidates .

PHASE n
Place Announcements - Recruit Candidates
After the Prorlle is approved, we wUl conduct a comprehensive program to contact candidates
and determine sources of candidates. In addition to placing announcements in the appropriate
professional and trade journals, we wUl announce the position on the Internet and on our Web
Page. We wUl utilize our local, statewide, and regional contacts to identify potential
candidates. We will identify comparable organizations from which key individuals can be
contacte(l. Often we are able to identify candidates from similar assignments who may be
appropriate for the position. Because the most qualified candidates are often not in the job
market and do not respond to traditional advertising, we wUl directly recruit specific individuals
with established. patterns of talent, stability, and success.
Our Web site located at: http://www.brimgroup.com will be used to announce the position
and for candidates to access the Position Profile. We wUl provide links to city and regional
sites .
Review Resumes and Screen Candidates
Following the application deadline, we will screen each applicant's experience and background
against the Position Prome. After evaluating and comparing each application, we will compile
a list of candidates for further consideration. We will conduct one-on-one interviews with the
most promising individuals. Our staff will make every effort to conduct face-to-face interviews
with these candidates Our in-depth evaluation and appraisal techniques wUl cover issues such
as work experience, education, professional development and achievement, career objectives,
accomplishments, suitability, and specific interest in the position. We will pay particular
attention to behavior patterns and management style that most closely reflect the needs of the
Stillwater community and the organization.
Progress Report
From these interviews, we will select the most qualified individuals to present to the City. We
wlll prepare a Progress Report that will provide information on eight to ten candidates whose
backgrounds meet the requirements of the position. This Progress Report will provide specific
information on educational and work history, accomplishments and growth potential, strengths
and possible limitations. We will personally deliver and review this report with the City
Council. On the basis of this review, four to six candidates will be selected for further
consideration. At this time we wlll propose a schedule for interviewing the candidates and
discuss the compensation expectations of the City for the new City Administrator.

P!IASE m
Reference and Credential Checks
Prior to the interviews, we will conduct discreet reference checks on the finalist candidates.
We wUl talk with peers and former associates of these candidates. We will speak with
individuals who are, or have been, in positions to directly evaluate the candidates' job
performance. We will verify the finalist candidates' credentials through an educational,
criminal, and credit check. We may conduct a print/media search of the candidates' local
newspapers for specific recent articles.
Assessment (No additional fee)

cover the following areas:

2. Management strategies
3. Identification and management of conflict areas
The City will gain insights into the strengths, management style, and likelihood of success for
each finalist candidate. This assessment is available at the request of the City.
.
Client Interview and Selection Process
Resumes, cover letters, and reference reports will be provided on each candidate prior to the
interview. We will also I,)rovide the City Council with a list of possible interview questions, an
evaluation form for each candidate, and interviewing techniques. We will discuss the proposed
procedures to be used in the interview process.
Our suggested interview schedule will allow the candidates to get acquainted with the
community and community leaders and to visit with the staff on an informal basis. We
culminate the process with individual and group interviews. If possible, all interviews will be
scheduled within a period of one to two days depending upon the desire of the City Council. A
consultant will be present at each interview.
Selection
After the interviews we will meet with the City to review the individual ratings and assist in
determining the top candidate. The consultant will assist in this process to the extent requested
by the City. We take responsibility for notifying all unsuccessful candidates each time the
candidate pool is narrowed down.

Negotiating Compensation Package
The Brimeyer Group, Inc., will take great care that the City of Stillwater secures acceptance
from the most desired individual. We will recommend a compensation package calculated to
attract the finalist and will participate in the final negotiations. If any concerns arise in the
final hour, by working as a third-party intermediary we can resolve important details of the
offer which may have significant bearing on its final acceptance or rejection.
Additional Services
A. If requested by the City, The Brimeyer Group, Inc., caD. act as a spokesperson with the
media, when appropriate, in order to maintain the integrity of, the selection process as well
as to protect the confidentiality and privacy of the candidates who are not hired.
B. Family issues and dual career households are factors that influence an individual's decision
to change jobs. We address all circumstances arising from a job change including spouse
careers, real estate issues, family concerns, and relocation details.
C. After the candidate is employed, we will follow up with both the City and the candidate to
insure a smooth transition and satisfactory completion of the assignment. This follow-up
contact is intended to identify potential issues early so that adjustments can be made, if
necessary .
Work Program (Performance Evaluation)
If requested by the City Council, we agree to assist the City and the City Administrator in
developing a Work Program after a six-month period that outlines the expectations of the City
and the City Administrator. The Work Program will contain objectives for the City
Administrator to accomplish in the ensuing 12 to 18 months. The only cost incurred for this
service will be expenses.
Guarantees
If the City utilizes the entire process, Phase I, Phase n, and Phase ill, as described, The
Brimeyer Group offers an IS-month guarantee on the effectiveness of the City Adminiqrator.
Should the City determine it necessary to terminate the City Administrator due to failure to
adequately perform the duties as specified in the Profile and as represented by the process, we
will refIll the position at no additional fee and will charge expenses only. We offer this
assurance because of our confidence in the thoroughness and accuracy of the process.
Should there be substantial changes in the political situation at the City of Stillwater and a
decision is made to terminate the City Administrator for reasons other than failure to perform
the duties as specified in the Position Profile, this guarantee is subject to negotiations between
the City and The Brimeyer Group. The Brimeyer Group will not recruit candidates we have
placed with your organization.

Aiple Property and Kolliner Park Plan ReVision
March 2,2001
The Aiple Property Park Plan was adopted by the CIty in December 1998. After that date, a
bndge alIgnment over the park was decided In response to the selected bndge alIgnment and
impact on the park, the CouncIl authorized SRF, the City's park plan consultant, to update the
plan to Incorporate the bndge mformatIon and reconsIder phasmg and cost of park
Improvements.
Attached to this melpo IS a memo from John Larson summanzmg reViSIons A revised budget
and phasing schedule IS attached The plan has been submitted to the DNR and Natural Park
ServIce and they have conceptually approved the plan (nothIng m writing).
WIth bndge progress stalled and the consultant work completed It was felt that the reVIsed plan
should be brought back to the CouncIl for Information and possIble approval (If the bndge
proceeds). A bndge rmtigation provides for the removal of the terra building and partIal
Improvement of the park. WIthout bridge construction, other funding sources wIll have to be
secured to provide for future park Improvement.
John Larson from SRF Will be present to present the plan modifications and answer any Council
questIons
I
In a related actIon, the CIty CouncIl has purchased the railroad land that runs along the west SIde I
of the park from SunnysIde to Nelson Street to accommodate park improvements. :
The reVIsed plan was reviewed by the Parks Board at their February 26, 2001 meetIng.
Recommendation: Receive and reView Aiple Property Park reVisions (possible adoptIon).

DATE October 20, 2000
SUBJECT: THE AIPLE PROPERTY AND KOLLINER PARK MASTER PLAN
In summary of our work to date, concept plans have been prepared for portions of the proposed
park on the AIple Property to accommodate the new StIllwater Bndge deSIgn and relocate

· A non-motonzed boat launch and accessIble pathway to the waters edge from the parlang
and restroom facIhtIes
· CreatIon of an overlook WIth dIrectional SIgn age at the connectIon WIth the bIcycle traIl that
extends from the bndge below H1ghway 95 to the park
· Preservation of eXISting native vegetation where pOSSIble, and proposed new plantIngs to

The concept plans that depIct these momflcatIOns were dlstnbuted this past May to you and other
mterested partIes for comment, mclumng Adam Josephson of MnDOT; Tony Anderson of ~e
NatIonal Park ServIce (NPS) and Steve Johnson of MnDNR. We also followed up wIth phone
calls to these mmvlduals. To date, we have receIved verbal approval of the concept plans from
Mr. Josephson. Mr. Anderson acknowledged that he was revlewmg the plans and stated that the
NPS would forward comments to us. These have not been receIved to date Mr. Johnson has not
returned messages left on hIS vOIce maIl. I
I
We also contacted staff of the Army Corps of Engmeers (ACOE) concernmg design parameters for
np-rap shorelIne constructIon Although we dId not receIve speCifIC deSIgn recommendations from
the ACOE, we md receIve flood level data and copies of deSIgn drawmgs for the recently
completed shorehne reconstructIon at Lowell Park ThiS mformatlon and telephone mSCUSSIOns
WIth the ACOE have formed the baSIS for concept level shorehne cross-sectIons, whIch we have
completed and mcluded hereWIth. I
The concept for shorehne reconstructIon, WhICh IS m response to a mItigatIon reqUIrement Imposed
on the bndge proJect, Improves the eXlstmg shorehne m the Park by removmg eXlstmg concrete
I
rubble and replacmg WIth hmestone boulders (np-rap) The new lImestone nver edge would begm
at elevatIon 681.5 MSL, whIch IS the same elevatIon used at Lowell Park for top of np-rap, and
extend below the normal low pool water hne of 675 0 MSL to the bottom of bank. ThIs concept
for lImestone np-rap would extend from the eXIsting Terra BuIldmg south to a pomt approXImately
1500 feet from the buIldmg's southerly comer, where the nver bank levels out. A small section, of
np-rap IS recommended to protect eroded shorehne m the sand beach area approXImately 400 feet
north of the pump bUlldmg at the park's southern end ThIS sectIon would begm at elevation 68~.0
MSL and extend to the beach level at 677.5 MSL. Our understanmng m speakmg WIth the AC0E
is that the top of hmestone np-rap, elevatIon 681.5, was set for the Lowell Park SIte pnmanly: to
protect agamst boat wake, and IS not deSIgned to any partIcular flood frequency, WhICh would
reqUIre the np-rap to extend conSIderably hIgher up the bank Our recommendation for np-rap
cross sectIon, m matchmg the Lowell Park deSIgn, IS mtended to balance the eroSIOn con~rol
functIon of the np-rap With preservatIon of eXlstmg nver bank vegetatIon and shorehne aesthetics.
Please reVIew the enclosed drawmgs and phone us WIth any comments, or to schedule a meetipg.
After dlscussmg these WIth you, we propose to send the proposed cross-sections to the ACOE ~d
other orgamzatlons noted above for comment. PreparatIon of the fmal Master Plan graphIC and
mom fled report wIll take two weeks from the time comments are receIved

BASI C LAND USE and site development is regulated by the City of
Stillwater Zoning Ordinance on the Aiple Property and by the St. Croix County,
Wisconsin, Zoning Ordinance on the Kolliner Park site. Substantial portions of
each site fall within the Hoodway, shoreland and bluff land overlay districts of the
respective zoning ordinances. Among other agencies with approval or permitting
authority, the Lower St. Croix Management Commission (LSCMC) (representing
the Minnesota/Wisconsin Boundary Area Commission, the Minnesota and
Wisconsin DNRs and the National Park Service) and the Corps of Engineers are
key. In discussions with staff and commissioners of these organizations, several
important issues were identifled:
1. Park development should seek to improve the natural environment along the
river, not merely maintain status quo.
2. Addition of new river moorings is limited by LSCMC policy.
3. There is interest among the agencies in the St. Croix Visitors' Center concept,
however, there are no funding or management resources available.
4. The reuse of the Terra building represents the best opportunity for a new
Visitor Center.
5. A precedent exists in Hudson for bath house reconstruction on the river.
6. The City's status as a private landowner in Wisconsin may limit potential
development of the Kolliner site.

Two PUBLIC SURVEY forms were prepared and distributed with-
in the local community. The first form was distributed through local newspapers,
at City Hall and at the fIrst open house. This form asked general questions about
potential park uses and perceived areas of concern. A total of approximately
50 responses were collected. The highest positive response for park uses were:
Aiple Property Preferred Uses
Walking connection to Downtown
Hiking trails
Native plantings/wildflowers
Picnic shelter
Biking trails
Kolliner Park Preferred Uses
Swimming beach
Picnic shelter
Hiking trails
Native plantings/wildflowers
Reconstructed bath house
Fishing pier
Frequently Mentioned Issues and Concerns were:
Preservation of viewsllandscape
Environmental issues
Preservation of heritage
It was concluded that these are uses and issues on which there is a consensus in the
community and which must be accommodated in any Master Plan scheme.

The second sUlVey form was distributed at the second public open house and was
mailed to interested parties. This form asked for comments on key aspects of the
concept alternatives, particularly uses that received a medium level of positive
response on the first form. An overall preference among the four Aiple Property
schemes and the two Kolliner Park schemes was also requested.
A total of eight meetings or presentations were held during the park planning
process during which the public was invited to comment. In addition, the park
plans were presented on two occasions at public meetings of the Lower St. Croix
Management Commission.

THE FOLLOWING PLANS were presented at a public open house
held at City Hall onJune 18, 1998. The plans outline various concept alternatives;
four alternatives for the Aiple property and two alternatives for Kolliner Park. The
alternatives show the optimal location and size for different park facilities which
were suggested in previous public meetings. Certain uses are consistent in all plans
because they received wide support in previous meetings and public SUIVeys. These
uses include: walking connection to downtown, hiking and biking trails, picnic
shelter and native planting areas for the Aiple property Beach renovation, picnick-
ing and native planting areas are consistent on both schemes for Kolliner Park. At
both sites, Alternative A suggests the lowest level of use.
The key components of each. alternative are as follows:
Aiple Alternative A
Key Features:
No Use of Railroad Line
Demolish Terra Building(fertilizer plant)
Most Open Park Area
Minimal Parking
Aiple Alternative B
Key Features:
Boat Launch. at South End
Re-use Terra Building as Picnic Shelter
Convert Railroad Tracks to Trail

THE AIPLE PROPERTY
The Master Plan for the Aiple Property is designed to maximize pedestrian access
to the 20-acre riverfront property, while respecting its unique location and natural
river floodplain character.
Access 18 provided from four points: a multipurpose path extends north into
downtown adjacent to the existing railroad line; an improved sidewalk connection
to an existing public parking lot and to downtown via Main Street; pedestrian and
automobile access to trails and parking at the main entry opposite the Oasis service
station; and vehicular access to parking from the Sunnyside Marina road. In all
cases, access requires crossing property that is currently private.
A lo-foot-wide multipurpose trail runs the length of the Aiple Property, connect-
ing the park's features. The trail loops back on itself at the south end, creating a
continuous I.5-mile hike from downtown and back. The lo-foot width of the
trail allows for security patrols by police squad cars. Safety lighting mounted on
low poles is discreetly placed along the path.
The park includes two new floating docks on the water: a public fishing pier at the
south end of the site and a permanent mooring for the Cayuga barge, which would
become a viewing deck and interpretive exhibit.
The Cayuga, which was donated to the City, would be moved from its current loca-
tion at the south end to a new location opposite the main entry. Along with the
barge would be four slips for visitor boats or a water taxi.
Near the barge, the centerpiece of the park is a large lawn area for picnicking and
informal recreation. The lawn area is served by two picnic shelters, a restroom and
I
I
I.
I
I
I
I
I
I
I.
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
a small parking lot. At the center of the lawn area, an old section of limestone
foundation wall could be cleaned up to seNe as a backdrop for programmed events
such as small concerts, weddings and group meetings.
Just south of the picnic area is a woodland garden bisected by wood chip trails that
includes a special planting area to attract butterflies.
In addition to a fIshing pier, the south end of the park will include a new structure
that will house equipment for the St. Croix Rowing Club, a public restroom and
park maintenance room. An open seating area set within a shrub and flower bed
will provide a location for informal picnicking and wildlife watching. After
removing a large industrial pier, the natural beach shoreline will be cleaned up and
improved to provide the City's only direct access to the water's edge south of
Mulberry Point.
All along the trail system, points of natural or historical interest are called out with
interpretive markers and benches so that school children, residents and visitors
alike gain a full appreciation of the natural and historical significance of the park.

KOLLINER PARK
The Master Plan for Kolliner Park seeks to return it to its former splendor as a
swimming beach with a historic limestone bathhouse. The bathhouse would be
located and detailed as close as possible to the original facility (constructed in
1931), while conforming to current design standards. It would include changing
rooms, portable toilets, and space for lifeguards. The existing beach, adjacent to
the bathhouse, with minimal improvements, would provide safe access to the water
for swimmers. A narrow lawn area extends south along the water, providing space
for picnicking and informal recreation. At the south end of the lawn is a public
fishing pier, connected to the bathhouse area by a paved path.
Access to the swimming beach is provided for cars by upgrading an existing
entrance road and parking lot for 20 cars. The plan also suggests the possibility of
a commercial water taxi mooring, which would provide an exciting means of visit-
ing the beach from downtown Stillwater or from the park at the Aiple property,
while minimizing the impact of cars on the site.
North of Highway 64 and the historic lift bridge, the site remains largely
unchanged from its current natural state. Although the north end of Kolliner
Park was once home to rustic campgrounds, its most valuable use today is as a
natural backdrop to the river, as seen from downtown Stillwater. The existing
service road is retained. Additional planting along the water's edge is
contemplated as a means to enhance the value of the shoreline to birds and to
other wildlife.

FR City Admuustrator
RE JulIa Belle Swam Steamboat
Visit and use of levee for dockmg
DA' March 2, 2001
DISCUSSion
Attached to this memo IS a letter from Captain Carl Henry, Pilot of the Julia Belle Swam
("Julia") The Julia is a traditional steamboat paddlewheeler and Capt Henry would hke to bnng
the vessel to Stlllwater on September 12,2001 for a three-day stay (2 overmghts). Captain Henry
IS requestmg the use of the levee area for dockmg the vessel dunng the stay and IS also
requestIng water and electnc utIhties, if avallable
First of all, the City has not allowed any commercial use of the levee fOl about 10 years now
Part of the reason for not allOWIng docking of commercIal vessels over the past 10 years IS that
the Downtown rehab project, that began m 1991, created some traffic and parkmg problems m
the downtown area and It was felt that commercial boatIng operations would exacerbate the
problem (I e , more traffic, more parking demand, etc) The other reason IS that, follOWIng the
downtown project, construction also began on the levee project Further, pnor to the
reconstructIon of the levee It was m pretty bad shape and not safe for dockmg large commercIal
vessels
Second, staff beheves that the levee should not be used for commercial operations, espeCially If
the tnp orIgmates In Stillwater Captain Henry's request has conSiderable merit because the Juha
Will be bnngmg passengers to Stillwater and IS more acceptable because the tnp Will ongmate In
Lacrosse and therefore, Will not Impact on the traffic and parkmg situation in the downtown area
However, Captain Henry IS also proposing to offer a pubhc crUise for the "local" commumty
Although, this would probably have a rmmmallmpact (and for only a short penod ofnme) staff
IS concerned that precedence may be set If the City grants a wharfage permit that would also
allow the loading of passengers at the levee (i e , the tnp ongmates m Stillwater) Therefore, staff
would recommend that the Councll only grant wharfage permits for "occasIOnal" VISItS, slmllar
to what Capt Henry IS proposmg Staff would further recommend that the CounCIl estabhsh a
pohcy that would prohtblt or at least discourage the mtenslficatlOn of commercial passenger boat
actIvity m thIS area
The City Attorney has prepared the attached wharfage permit for your conSideration of the Juha
Belle SWain request
RecommendatIOn.
CounCIl conSider request for wharfage permit for the Juha Belle Swain and to also dIrect staff to
prepare a wntten pohcy regarding use of the levee

D<..cU Nile,
ThiS letter IS m response to your request for more mformatlOn about our scheduled tnp to Stlllwatel m the
fall of 200 1.
It IS a 7-day trip slated f01 September 10-16, the Julza Belle Swam Will depart La Crosse on September
10th and arrive In Stillwater on the afternoon of September 12'\ dlsembarkmg our passengers m your
commumty for 2 overmghts They Will patromze local hotels and restaurants and have a full day In
StIllwater for shore excurSions, shoppmg, etc, before leavmg early In the mommg of the 14th for our
return trip to La Crosse We would hopefully offer a pubhc cruise to the local commumty on the 13th
Our needs are pretty simple and stlalghtforward, and we would not require any additIOnal mfrastructure to
be placed specifically for our VISit Our chief concem IS a phYSical one of evelyone's safety as we land at
your City levee The Julia Belle Swam IS an authentiC steam-powered paddlewheeler, and requires an .
unmterrupted approach area alongSide ItS path as It docks For safety, we request that the levee be clear of
all small-craft as we make our landmgs or departures
We wllI need shore access for motorcoaches and vanous delivery and service vehicles fOl fuel, pump-
outs, etc We would also appreciate access to water and electnclty, and Will accept whatever fee you
associate for Its use
ThiS trip IS very much an experiment for us, With hopes that If It can generate enough mterest and be
fmanclally successful, that we could contmue to mclude It m our future plans We are encouraged by your
wIlhngness to faCilitate our VISIt, and we are certam that It Will have a pOSitive Impact on the City of
Stillwater as well

The City has been approached by Washmgton County to add an antenna to the eXistIng
communication tower located next to the Ldy Lake Water Tower The County commumcatIons
tower IS located on City of Stdlwater land The eXlstmg tower was constructed In the 60's With a
handshake between the County and the City.
It IS suggested that before responding to the request, the City obtaIn mformatIon on the
commumcatIon needs of the City and the appropnateness of the tower for those needs.
Currently, the City has communication antennas located at City Hall and Owens and Wd1ard
Streets
Frre Department grounds commumcatIons are difficult In some portlons oftherr service area
A study of City commumcatIon needs, pohce, fire, public works, would prOVide the information
on City needs so we can respond to the County's request for addItional use of the tower.
The Fire Ch1efwdl be aVailable at meetIng time to dIscuss the commumcatIon situation In more
detail and to diSCUSS the study
Recommendation: Approvalof City of Stillwater CommumcatIons Study (resolution)

Subject
Rad10 CommumcatIon Systems for the City
FollOWing up on the discussion at staffmeeting yesterday:
Before leasing antenna tower space to a pnvate vendor, we agreed It would be Wise for
the city to study it' s own needs and possible use of the aVailable space on the Lily Lake
antenna tower for city radiO channels, i e fITe-ground tactical, pubhc works, or other
Our fire department must transfer all radiO traffic to one of our own channels as soon as
we arnve on the scene of any incident. The channels and associated antennas we
currently have do not meet our needs In a safe and effiCient way
Attached IS an informal quote or estImate of costs to analyze our current radio
communIcation hardware and make recommendattons on whether one or more of our
own antennas would unprove radio communications for our fire, pubhc works, and pohce
departments
I recommend to you and to Council that we h1re P.S C Alhance to study our systems, and
report on potential improvements including recommendations for or against relocation of
any antennas to the Lily Lake tower.
FIle Study radio antennas, budgets

A weekly leglslat've update from the !..eague of Mlr.nesota CIties
.
State budget forecast
reveals slower revenue
growth
On Wedresday, the Dept of Flr.an~
Lnvellea the revised state bUdget
forecast, wt'Ilch reflected slower
revenue groYlth for the current state
blernlLm as well as the 2002-2003
fiscal biennIum
The short-term revenue ana expen-
alture changes WID translate Into a
567 million lower surplus by the end
of t\"e current fIScal year, which enas
June 30,2001 CLrrent reverue
estimates are actually down by
rearly 5120 million However the
revenue redLctJons are offset by
positive prior year revenue adJLst-
ments and expenditure estimates
that are nearly $33 million lower
than prevloLsly forecast
For the 2002-2003 bler.n1Lm, tt'e
forecast also reduces the available
sLrplus Revenues for that perIOd are
expected to be 5594 million lower
than preVIOUS estimates while expen-
cltures are also down from the
November estImates by nearly
$70 million In total the November
forecast of a S3 billion SUrplLS througl't
the end of fiscal year 2033 IS reduced
by 5617 million or 20 percent
The first Impacts of the new smaller
SLrplus Will be reflectea In the release
ofthe governor's supplemental
budget The supplemental buaget
Will Include reVised recommendations
for the governor s budget and tax
reform proposals
Preliminary commerts by the gover-
nor sl.lggest he wants to malrtaln
most of I"IS tax reform recommenda-
tIOns To orset the lower revenues
In the forecast he Will have to adjust
hiS plan For example, he could
reduce the proposed Ircometax
rate redLctlons or phase them In
over a longer penod of time or
ellm Irate the sales tax exemption
for local unIts of government Other
pOSSible Changes Incluae Increasl"g
hiS new state property tax levy that
IS aoplled to commercial Industrial,
and cabin properties, or reducing
the sales tax rate reauctJon to
something greater than 6 percent
All of these pOSSible changes Will
certainly face major opposition
Perhaps more likely would be shifts
In other state budget Items, which
could Incluae further reauctlOns In
City alCs or other state spending
In ary event, the governor ~as not
finalized these supplemental recom-
mendations and the Legislature Will
naN have to walt at least an additional
week to consider the govemor's
recommenaatlons
