MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Klayton Eckles, City Engineer
SUBJECT: Purchase of Tractor Backhoe
1
,/1-- ~ J
DATE: July 11, 1996
DISCUSSION
e
Council authorized staff to look into purchase options for tractor backhoes. The State of
Minnesota Highway Department bid for backhoe units in 1995. The unit which met all ofMN
Dot's specifications was a Ford 655D, available at a price of $48,006 with all the options and
extras necessary for the City of Stillwater. The MN Dot purchase program allows other
governmental units to participate in the same bid process. Although the time has expired for the
MN Dot purchasing program the supplier for MN Dot has one additional unit left and is willing
to honor the MN Dot pricing to the City of Stillwater.
This is a great opportunity because the MN Dot program generally obtains bid prices 20% lower
than what the city might acquire on its own. Also, as the model in question is a 1995 it is
estimated that the '96 models will increase in price by approximately 10%. For budgeting
purposes we had assumed that a tractor backhoe would be in the $85,000 range, including the
features we wanted. The unit which is available has all of the features we are looking for
including 4-wheel drive, extended hoe (which allows for greater reach and deeper digging), a
heated cab, block heater, strobe light and numerous other features. Including tax, this unit is
available for $51,126.39. In March the city received $45,000 for the sale of the city water truck,
these funds could be allocated towards the purchase of the backhoe. In addition, the remaining
$6,100 could be charged against the capital outlay for the Sanitary Sewer Fund. $60,000 of
capital outlay was allocated for this Sanitary Sewer Fund and it currently appears that there will
be a significant surplus in this fund. Given that the tractor backhoe will be used extensively for
the city sewer department, this seems appropriate.
RECOMMENDATION
. Staff recommends council authorize staff to enter into a Purchase Agreement with Rochester
Ford Tractor for the purchase of a Ford 655D tractor backhoe for a price of$51,126.39.

Honorable Mayor and Council Members

Stillwater, Minnesota 55082
Dear Mayor and Council Members:
I understand our recent request to schedule a workshop session with the council was not acted upon. Our
intention was to discuss issues and get your feedback. I'm sorry we will miss that opportunity. We accept
your decision and will be meeting with your staff to finalize the fee issue at the amount you have offered.
Since the downtown project is complete, revisiting the issues surrounding the work is probably not on the
top of anyone's priority list of things to do. But, there are some things we are very interested in and the issue
of our fees is not the most important. It became (;lear to us on the downtown project there was not a good e
process of communication between our people and the city. This was, in large part, responsible for many
of the misunderstandings and issues that arose. We want to help make certain such a process is in place on
all projects.
When we meet with your staff, we will be looking for ideas to improve communications. Our goal, as
always, is to provide outstanding service to the city. To a large degree, excellent service is measured by the
quality of communications. We welcome your ideas.

MEMORANDUM

FROM:
Diane Deblon, Finance Director
DATE:
July 11, 1996
SUBJECT: Fire Relief Pension Benefit Increase
The Fire Relief Association is requesting city council approval for the increase in pension
benefits from $2,600 to $2,800 per year of service.
At this time, there is no contribution required from the city for the increase in benefits. The
assets of the Fire Relief Association are invested in various stocks and bonds. (The value of
these assets are not guaranteed). By approving the increase in pension benefits, the city council
is making a guarantee of these benefits if the Relief Association would not have sufficient assets.
(Le., the City of Stillwater would be required to contribute to the Fire Relief Association for the
level of benefits approved.)

City Council
Honorable Mayor & City Council of the City of Stillwater:
At the June 4, 1996 regular meeting and again at the July 2, 1996 regular meeting, the Stillwater
Fire Dept. Relief Association has voted by majority to increase the death and pension benefit
of its membership from $2600 to $2800 per year of service after 20 years,
Attached is a pension schedule projected to the year end of 1997 and a copy ofthe revised
by-laws of the Stillwater Fire Dept. Relief Association, The only change that affects the by-law
is Article 9 Section 2 & 3.
e
As the schedule shows, the contribution by the City of Stillwater would be zero in the event of a
tragedy that would cause the death or permanent disability of all members of the Stillwater Fire
Dept.. I ask that the Stillwater City Council approve this increase so the fire fighters with the
Stillwater Fire Dept. can continue to receive the best benefit available to them.
Thank you in advance for your consideration. If you have any questions or need additional
information, please feel free to contact me at 439-7317 or 215-0516.

CITY OF STILLWATER
MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor and City Council
~~
FROM:
Diane Deblon, Finance Director
DATE: July 10, 1996
SUBJECT: Municipal Service Charge Agreement with Washington County HRA
BACKGROUND
Attached is a copy of the municipal service agreement currently in place for the Brick Pond
apartments. This agreement requires the Washington County HRA (owner of Brick Pond
apartments) to pay the estimated equivalent of city real estate taxes to the City of Stillwater.
With this agreement, the City of Stillwater will receive an estimated $9,000 in revenue each and
every year. This agreement is in addition to the P.LL.O.T. required for the project. The funds
received for the municipal service agreement and the P.LL.G.T. are meant to be a substitute for
general property taxes on the Brick Pond apartments because of its tax-exempt status due to the
BRA ownership.
ANALYSIS
The Washington County HRA is in the process ofrefmancing several of its' apartment projects
(including Brick Pond) in order to achieve more favorable interest rates, etc. The HRA has
requested assistance from the City of Stillwater as part of their refinancing package. With the
recent review of TIF projects completed by the Finance Dept., it was determined that there are
available TIF funds in the Cottages TIF District #3. The Washington County HRA also owns
and operates the Ann Bodlovick Apartments, which is located in TIF District #3. The available
TIF funds within this district could be used to support the Ann Bodlovick Apartments. By
financially supporting the HRA-owned Ann Bodlovick apartments, the Washington County HRA
would enhance their ability to refmance their other projects at more reasonable rates. This in
turn, would continue to allow them the financial ability for making payment to the city on the
municipal service agreement.
RECOMMENDATION
11,
Staff is recommending the approval of Resolution No. 96-1 , approving the expenditure of
$100,000 offunds from TIF District #3 in support of the Washington County HRA refinancing
for various housing projects.

Re: New Elementary School
Dear Mr. Kriesel:
e
The purpose of this letter is to present for the City Council's consideration a process
that would not delay the building of the new elementary school as the annexation
process continues. This request is based on the meeting held Friday, June 12, 1996
between City staff, district staff and representatives from the architectural firm of
BWBR. A fall 1996 construction start is the district's goal both for budget and
completion purposes.
. The School Board is requesting authorization to begin the conditional use process
with the City of Stillwater Planning Commission August 12, 1996.
. The District understands that there is language in the orderly Annexation Agreement
to establish a joint committee to review projects occurring in the annexed area.
Because the School Board has already been communicating with both City and
Township and since this committee has not been named and the process identified,
we request working jointly to meet approval of both Township Board and City
Council based on the following schedule:
July 18
Public Hearing Township Planning Commission
August 8
Conditional Use Permit -- Stillwater Township Board
,e
August 12
City Planning Commission
September 3
City of Stillwater - City Council's consideration
Mr. Niles Kriesel, City Administrator
City of Stillwater
Page 2
The School District is requesting Council action authorizing an exception from that
clause in the annexation agreement.
. The District would proceed with plan review, by City staff, following the issuance of
construction documents in mid August.
. The District requests that the City Council authorize staff to begin working with the
District on the details of a development agreement that would be executed after City
Council approval September 2, 1996.
District staff will be present at the 4:00 p.m. July 16 meeting of the City Council to
discuss this request. Please contact me if additional items should be included in this
discussion.
Sincerely,

Stillwater Elementary School
BWBR Commission Number 95053.01
June 18, 1996
PROJECT NARRATIVE
This project provides for the Stillwater School District a new school to meet their elementary education
needs for the immediate future and offers flexibility to adapt to changing teaching and learning styles as
we move into the 21st century.
The building will be located approximately 1/4 mile east of Highway 15,just south of Highway 12. The
site is currently going through the minor subdivision process and is part of the Phase 1 annexation parcel
into the City of Stillwater.
Intended for an ultimate enrollment of 800 students, the building is designed to reduce the scale to one that
feels more like a 200 student school. The architecture of the building recalls historic Stillwater, with use
of brick, building forms and one room schoolhouse references. The design responds to a myriad of issues:
site, program. budget, context and, above all, kids.
BUILDING AREA
Total site coverage of the building is 71,898 square feet. The total building gross square footage is 99,910
square feet, comprised of 65,825 s.f. on the upper level, 34,085 s.f. on the lower level.
UTILITIES
Permanent Plan
Ultimately the school will be served by permanent water and sewer services extended from the city of
Stillwater. The City will provide these services to the neighboring residential development to the south
and west and the school will tap into them. Design and implementation of these services will not begin,
however, until the annexation process has been completed.
Interim plan
Through the City, the School District has petitioned for a feasibility study to temporarily extend city
services from a location approximately 1/2 mile east of the school site on Myrtle Avenue. These utilities
would be used until the permanent utilities are installed and available for the school's connection. The
study is anticipated to be brought to Stillwater City Council July 2,1996.
WATERSHED
The entry drive into the west end of the site is required by the county to be 300 feet from Highway 12.
This causes our drive to cross the north end of the wetland area, requiring approximately 2750 s.f. of the
wetland to be tilled. Areas in excess of 2000 s.f. mandate mitigation. Mark Doneaux of the Washington
County Soil and Warer Conservation District is involved as the design progresses (see attached letter from
Washington County dated June 12, 1996).

"'l
Mayor Kimble and council members.
My name is John Paquette 1 reside on Sunrise Avenue in the CroixWood addition.
My house borders Sunrise Park.
Thank-you for the opportunity of addressing a problem that concerns me as well as
others residing in the CroixWoodlSunrise park area as well as broader issues and
concerns about our city parks in general. For 1 find that many of the problems that 1
observe in Sunrise Park are also present in other Stillwater parks.
1 feel that the quality of entities such as our ~chools and parks reflect the quality of
life in our Stillwater community as well as the quality of our stewardship in
, managmg our ~esources.
For good and/or bad Stillwater is rapidly changing. Dramatic growth in our
population, retail expansion and development and increased tourism is impacting our
infra-structures, municipal services and social services, placing a strain on these and
other resources such as schools parks and shorelines. At the same time we are
experiencing a reduction in federal and state monies, placing a greater financial
burden on county and municipal government.
. ,
,Addressing these issues will require vision. planning, leadership and management"
and perhaps the unsettling prospect of changing some of the ways that we've done
things.
1 have concerns about our city park system in general and Sunrise park in particular.
ldon't believe that blame or responsibility can be laid at the feet. of anyone person
or department but it's my opinion that the growth and changes that I ~uded to
earlier are eroding the quality of our park system and are overwhelming the abilities
of the people charged with the responsibilitY for these parks. ,
1 have been a resident of Stillwater for over fifteen years ,and have lived on Sunrise
Avenue for over three years. During this time 'I have personal witnessed the
deterioration of this park.
Park benches and tables have been systematically destroyed, trash containers
burned, the tot lot equipment vandalized to the extent that some of this equipment is
not safe for children to use, and 1 think represents a lability issue for the city. 1
regularly find tracks and tom-up grass from vehicles and motorbikes being driven
around the park and doing wheelies,
The light in this park is regularly destroyed so that the cars that regularly pull in by
the water department building at night and early morning have plenty of privacy. At
various hours depending on when school is in session, cars will pull in there for two
or three minutes and leave a short time later another car pulls in there, people get
out for a few minutes, perhaps go into the tree area, return get into their car and
leave. Now what do you suppose is going on. What COULD it be? I cant say for
certain that drug or alcohol transactions or exchanges are taking place but it sure
looks suspicious to me. I add this to observations of neighborhood teenage boys
walking back in the park hearing a lot of loud cursing and drug related talk and
finding beer and pop cans and other garbage all over the ground and it appears that
Sunrise park has become a hangout for local-- I suppose (in this time of political
correctness) I shouldn't call them morons or idiots, LETS call them maturity and
common sense deprived youngsters exercising their rights of free expression. I will
tell you that mothers with young children are reluctant to take their children back to
the tot lot area because they feel intimidated.., I have also heard from other
neighborhood parents that their older children and even some of their teenagers are
apprehensive about being harassed if they go into the park.
Those are some of the issues for Sunrise park: .
SOLUTIONS that can be implemented over a short period of time:
-The access toad into the park should have a chained barricade to prevent access
by vehicles other than by police and other municiple vehicles. The area on either
side of the gate need to be fenced or bordered with large stones to prevent vehicles
from driving around the gate. I pedestrian foot-path (built by a former croixwood
resident) could be left open for use by pedestrians, parents with strollers and
bicycles.
- move the tot-lot from it's current location to a more public open area by the water
department building (the swings are about the only equipment) that's in fit shape to
use install some benches and picnic table by the new tot lot location (move some of
the old tables) replace the broken street lamp) and install a second light by the tables
- install concrete trash containers at the entrance to the park and the tot lot area
.
~
.
.
Longer term: Biking walking paths to encourage use by the general neighborhood
and residence from across hwy 5. Encouragement of broader use reduces "privacy" .

General Park Concerns
As I read letters to the editor by various city officials and interested citizens and
observe the city council meetings, I am continually struck by the same question.

FR: City Coordinator
RE: Hosp/med insurance increase
DA: July 12, 1996
Discussion:
Accompanying this memo is a letter from Jana Edgren, Account Representative for Blue Cross
Blue Shield of Minnesota, explaining the premium increase that will become effective on
September 1, 1996. Although the increase is not favorable it appears to be reasonable in view of
the experience the City had related to health and medical care for employees (especially for some
retired employees). Further, the rates appear to very reasonable based on survey data I have
which compares hosp/med insurance costs for about 35 other metropolitan area cities.
The insurance premiums have not increased since September 1, 1994. Therefore this amounts to
an average increase of 6% per year for the past two years and I would recommend acceptance of
e the renewal offer.
Recommendation:
Approve insurance premium incr:ease.~ ~

Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Nile:
The September 1996 BCBSM and Blue Plus renewal has been completesi for the city.
The city has been insured with BCBSM for 33 years and Blue Plus for 2 years. During
the past 8 years, in which I have serviced this account, the average rate increase has been
9.96% per year. This year's melded increase resulted in a 21.1 % increase, however, due
to a high case that is now inactive, a 12 % increase has been given and are:

PREFERRED GOLD:
Current:
Renewal:
$129.93
$145.43

$382.48
The renewal rates, which have been realigned, include a small charge that increases the
$1,000,000 lifetime maximum to $2,000,000. The administrative expense has also been
increased 0.4%, due to the Minnesota Premium Tax, that was effective January 1, 1996.
Gold Net will be replacing PCS on September 1, 1996. The claims have been reduced
0.5% because it is anticipated that drug claims will be lower with Gold Net. This is
reflected on the Renewal Development Summary.
Please see the 1996 Group Renewal Bulletins for other changes that will take effect on
the renewal date.

Due to Gold Net, new In cards will be issued. It is currently taking around 3 weeks for
internal completion of the renewal. It would be best to have all of the renewal decisions
made prior to August 1, so that all of those covered will hopefully have their new In
cards prior to the renewal date. Please advise should you need any assistance in
completion of the renewal process.

Diane Deblon, Finance Director ~ p
July 12, 1996
TO:
DATE:
SUBJECT:
TERRITORIAL PRISON SITE FINANCIAL ANAL YSIS
The purpose of this memo is to set forth review and concerns from a [mancial perspective for the
territorial prison project.
e
First of all, I want to point out that I support the concept of this development one hundred
percent. It is a much-needed development on the north side of downtown and would provide a
clustering of businesses that compliment each other. However, it is the duty of the Finance
Director to point out the financial implications of the level of financial subsidy requested by the
developers. It is common in economic development projects to assist with tax increment
[mancing. As the council is aware, tax increment alone is insufficient to cover the requested
subsidy. Without the UBC sale as a contingency, it is almost unavoidable that the city will have
to use general revenues to make up the shortfall.
On February 13, 1996 the developers presented their project and requested city assistance as
follows:
llim1 Cost Timinll Source of Funds
1. Land Purchase $870,000 Immediate Marketplace $210,000
TIF Dist. #6 $ 35.000
Total TIF Funds Available $245,000
Unfunded land cost $625,000
2. Retaining Wall & $500,000 Concurrent Unfunded
Drainage Improvements w/project
3. "Pay as you go" $1,668,000 $139,000 TIF $1,668,000
TIF assistance Yearly
-- Total request for Project: $3,038,000
.
Since that meeting, significant city staff time has been spent on trying to finance this project
without using property tax or general revenues. The recent TIF analysis identified at most, tit
approximately $210,000 in the Marketplace project and $35,000 in the Jr. High TIF District. The
city then established TIF District #7 to help further finance this project. TIF District #7,
includes the Gerard (UBC) Project and the Prison site. By including the Gerard (UBC) project
and the prison site in TIF District #7, $600,000 from the sale of the UBC site could be used to
fmance the prison land purchase. Furthermore, TIF generated from the Gerard development
would be used for retaining wall and drainage repairs. With this scenario, the city can overcome
the financing hurdles without committing general revenues for an economic development project.
Nevertheless, in the event the project failed, there still remains a significant risk as the city will
most likely be in 2nd position and would lose its investment.
For the city to venture into this project without the guaranteed financing from the UBC sale is,
from a financial standpoint, taking an unnecessary risk. This position is further supported by Sid
Inman of Ehlers & Assoc. Mr. Inman is a nationally recognized expert in economic
development. He has recommended methods to reduce the city risk of loss (Le. - bond,
insurance, or Letter of Credit). I concur with the recommendations offered by Mr. Inman and
recapped in my earlier memo dated July 2, 1996. (See attachment)
Although it is not recommended, the city council has the option of using funds other than TIF for
this project. The options of financing the balance of the project include: general fund reserves,
property tax levies and bonds. If the council chose to use those options, there could be a negative
impact on the city's bond rating (Le. - higher interest rates for furture borrowing). There are e
numerous projects that the city plans to finance in the very near future (Le. - $4 million in trunk
lines for Phase I annexation, parkland acquisition/development, current street projects, etc.)
Therefore, it is recommended that the contingencies recommended by Mr. Inman be included if
the council were to approve the developers request for assistance.

CITY OF STILL WATER
MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Diane Deblon, Finance Director
DATE:
July 2, 1996
SUBJECT:
Territorial Prison Hotel Development
Mr. Inman, the consultant, provided me with some analysis for immediate review. Because the
information was just received today at 11 :00 a.m., staff has not had adequate time to review and
analyze it. Major issues raised by Mr. Inman are as ,follows:
1. LAND PURCHASE. Purchase of the land should be contingent on the Gerard
Development, proof offmancing, a signed franchise agreement (with a full-service hotel like
Radison) and ability to use the balance of bond proceeds and other city funds. If the city chooses
to purchase without these conditions, other sources of funds need to be identified for the
$870,000 purchase and $10,125 per month in carrying costs.
2. TIF. The developer has requested 100% of the tax increment for 12 years. The
estimated tax increment is $139,000 per year or a total amount of$1,668,000. Using a discount
rate of9.5% (the developer's fmancing rate) the present value of this is $816,271. The developer
needs to identify eligible TIF construction costs of this amount to provide this level of assistance.
The city should also specify the exact amount of assistance and have the opportunity to prepay.
In this case, TIF generated as a result of inflation would remain with the city.
3. TAX CREDITS. The proforma Mr. Inman reviewed assumed the project did not receive
any historical tax credits. If tax credits are received, the equity positions would change and the
return on the proforma would go up. Therefore, the need for tax increment assistance should go
down. (It was my understanding from previous statements submitted by the developers, that
there would be approximately $975,000 in historical tax credits on the project.)
4. COST REDUCTIONS. Other construction cost savings or increases in hotel room
revenues could reduce the need for tax increment even more and the city may want to review the
project annually to provide a stated level of return to the equity holders.
5. SECURITY. Security for the project should be at two levels of security. The first is a
higher level of security during construction. This is required because if the project fails during
construction, the city needs to be a party to the discussions on how to finish the project. By
"
having some level of security (bond, insurance, letter of credit), this allows the city some control
in the outcome of the construction, Once the project is built, the security could be reduced to a _
different level. After construction it can be assumed that even in default it will probably
continue to operate. Therefore the cities' goal after construction is just to get its investment back.
6. FUTURE SALE OF HOTEL. Sale of the property or refmancing prior to the 10 year
term should require the city getting paid back for its investment as part of the transaction.

RE:
David T. Maanuson. City Attorney tfW\
July 12, 1996
Territorial Prison Redevelopment Project
City Staff and representatives from Territorial Coalition, Inc. have met several times since the last
meeting and have developed a framework for consideration by the Council that if approved by the
Council, would be embodied in a fonnal development contract that would be entered into by the City and
Territorial Coalition, Inc. ("Tel").' The elements of an agreement that would be acceptable by Maple
Island and TCI aDd would constitute the agreement are as follows:
1. Tel would assign its rights in a Purchase Agreement with Maple Island to the City and the City
would then purchase the Territorial Prison'Site for the sum of eight hundred fifty thousand and
nollOO dollal'S ($850,000.00) plus one-half (112) of the special assessments totalling not more
than twenty thousand and no/loo dollars ($20,000.00) for a total purchase price of eight hundred
seventy thousand and nol100 dollars ($870,000.00).
2.
The purchase pl'icewould be paid one-third (113) down at the closing and the balance on a three
(3) year municipal.bond or note that would be issued to Maple Island. Maple Island requests that
the interest rate on the note be equal to the prime rate of interest. Since the proceeds of the note
would be used to acquire land to be made available for private development, it is likely that the
note would be a taxable obligation of the City and, therefore, the proceeds would not be exempt
from State or Federal Income Tax. Diane DebJon is of the mind that a reasonable interest rate
to pay is five percent (5 ~). Nile bas mentioned that the Council should have a choice of entering
the Agreement with Maple Island that the prime rate or actually loaning money from City funds
to a special fund created for this. redevelopment purpose, or finally, a choice of issuing a bond
at a lower interest rate and paying the proceeds directly to Maple Island. It appears, however,
that Maple Island is satisfied with up to a three (1) year deferred obligation. At the closing, the
9ty would receive a deed to the property and Maple Island would no longer have any interest
in the property, but would have a full faith and credit obligation of the City in lieu of any
security in the real estate.

3. There is a twenty-five thousand and no/l00 dollars ($25,000.00) Earnest Money deposit that Tel
has made with Maple Island and this earnest money would be used ta pay down the purchase
price.
4. The City would arant to Tel the exclusive riaht to develop the property and to arfan&C its
financing and to have all af its building plans approved. Tel would have until December 31,
1996, to perfarm and in the event they do not perform, their rights, under the Purchase
Agreement, would be forfeited. If they do obtain all necessary approvals and fm8l1cing,
however, the City would transfer the property to the developer at closing, retaining far City use,
the portion of the site containing the prison wall and areas above and adjacent to the wall.
S. At closing, the City could make the property available for development on either of two (2) basis:
a.) The City would arant to Tel a around lease amortizing the eight hundred fifty
thousand and 1101100 dollars ($850,000.00) purchase price over a forty (40) year period
with cost of HvIng adjustments In the rent and options for the developers to purchase the e
fee interest arising every five (5) years during the lease. Staff considers this the
recommended form of transfer and recommends that the City not subordinate its lease
position to any mortgage holder whether providing money for constl11ctlon funds or
otherwise; and
b.) The developers would prefer that the City sell the hOtel portion of the Tel site for
a fixed sum of eight hundred twenty-five thousand and 001100 dollars ($825,000.00) plus
any special assessments paid by the City with the amount due and payable ten (10) years
after closing. With the. developers proposed method of making the site available, the
developers would allow the City to secure its payment due in ten (10) years by taking a
second mortgage against the site that would of course be subordinate to any constrUction
mortgage that is placed against the project.
6, That if the Tel group is not able to perform by December 31, 1996, the City would attempt to
mark.et, at least the hotel portion of the site, in an effort to reimburse itself for any out-of-pocket
~penses that have been incurred on the site. If the('e is a shalt fall in holding costs on the site,
the principals of Tel have agreed to be personally responsible for up to one hundred. thousand
and no/l00 dollars ($100,000.00) of these expenses on the condition that if the City selts the
pl"operty for more than the costs and holding costs associated with the project, any profit would
be paid to the principals of Tel as reimbursement for expenses advanced to the project.
7.
The City would also use contacts with the Minnesota Department of Transportation, either
directly or through a lobbying effort with the State Legislature to obtain a release of any highway
department easement that is held on the property in excess of what is actually needed for their
dght-of-way on Hi2hway 95.
I
_I
If the elements described are acceptable to the City, a Development Agreement could be drafted and made
available to the City Council prior to their next meeting.

Honorable ~1ayor and City Council
City of Stillwater

Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Gentlemen,
In 1993, I served on a task force which explored options to preselVe and adaptively reuse
the Tenltorial Prison Site. My years in the field of corrections and prison refOlTIl coupled
with the history and intrigue of prison site has always been of great interest to me. The
Territorial Prison is one of Stillwater's most important historic sites which I feared was
threatened by years of neglect and its future was questionable. I was involved in the study
for a number of reasons, the first was to find appropriate reuses of the prison buildings
which were sensitive to the integrity of the buildings, The second wa~ to make sure there
was a vehicle to preselVe the prison walls which have been slowly deteriorating over the
years, and finally, which is of greatest importance, its historic interpetation. The site was
established prior to l\1innesota's Statehood and its colorful history of the Younger
Brothers, prison labor and private enterprise, not to mention early correctional ofIh.:ials art;
wonderful stories which should be shared. The study explored all these issues,
e
The T enitorial Prison Reuse Study shed light on the costs to make this site not only
economically viable but to properly intenupt the area. PreselVation, rehabilitation and
restoration of old buildings is expensive, The prison site is similar, its reuse and
rehabilitation have associated costs, However, the value of this unique site adds to the
flavor of historic Stillwater which could never be duplicated. This is why Stillwater is such
a special community,
The City Council has a unique and difficult decision to make. As public officials, you have
to be fiscally responsible to your constituents and at the same time, you have a commitment
to retain an important historic landmark which does come with associated costs. However,
cities that respect their history and make an extra effort to retain that historic flavor and
pursue economic development opportunities are communities which reflect a certain pride
and image. Stillwater has that commitment. I encourage you to pm'sue this .viable reuse
option of the Territorial Prison Site as an investment to the future of your Main Street, the
City of Stillwater, the St. Croix Valley and to the State of Minnesota.
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of the Territorial Prisons Reuse Study and I hope
that I can stay involved in its future.

RE: Proposal to Purchase Former Prison Site by Territorial Coalition, Inc. (Tel)
Maple Island, Inc. is the current owner of the old Territorial Prison site. We have a
purchase agreement with TCI for the sale of the prison site. This agreement expired
July 3, 1996, although technically I believe the agreement is still binding until July 25.
There is currently a debate as to how much city involvement is necessary to assist TCI
with their Radisson Hotel project. As part of this debate, we feel that it is important that
all parties involved understand some of the background that has brought us to this point
and some of the other possibilities if the TCI project does not pan out.
e
Two years ago this fall, we announced our intention to sell the prison site. This
announcement was written up in almost all of the print media throughout the state, was
on numerous radio new broadcasts and the subject of at least two TV news stories. It
is obvious that the site has a tremendous"historical appeal.
We had a great deal of interest from numerous developers. Most focused on
condominiums, office space and light manufacturing. The common opinion was that
the buildings were too old and dilapidated to develop and that the property was worth
much more without the buildings. Anyone familiar with the site knows that the buildings
are in terrible shape and that the costs of renovation are enormous. Most estimates are
from 50 to 100 percent more than the cost to build new buildings.
The only serious proposal to renovate the buildings was from TCI. We felt the hotel
concept was the best and highest use for the buildings and had the best chance of
being economically feasible. However, their proposal had three negatives:
. The sales price was a huge discount from what we were asking
. They were not experienced developers
. It was contingent upon financing
I.
Despite these negatives, we agreed to a Purchase Agreement because it was such a
wonderful project for the City. We also believed Mr. Lang and Mr. Borum would be able
to gather the support necessary as it is a solid concept.

e
We negotiated for 5 months and signed a Purchase Agreement in June of 1995. The
deal was to close in December with the buyer able to push the closing date back to
February of 1996 which the buyer subsequently did. In February, the buyer asked if we
would extend the agreement monthly so that they could explore getting public
assistance to reduce their up-front costs. It was apparent at this time the renovations to
the old buildings were so expensive that without up-front public assistance the hotel
concept was not economically feasible. We agreed to 4 monthly extensions if they paid
us roughly $7,700 each month to help defray our carrying costs. It was in February that
TCI approached the city asking for assistance. The four months since February are
now over and we still await a conclusion.
Maple Island is a small private company that has done business in Stillwater since the
1930s. We employ about 100 employees and need the funds from the sale of our
prison site to invest in our two remaining plants and protect the future viability of the
company. We are in the food business which is very competitive. Needless to say, we
are not in a position to afford to continue to wait for future contingencies to sell the
property .
The bottom line is that there has to be substantial public assistance up front to make _
any proposal to renovate the buildings economically feasible. If the TCl/Radisson Hotel
project falls through, there is no backup project that does not include city purchase of at
least some of the land. The only projects that would pay their own way would be
contingent upon removing the buildings. No one wants to see that happen.
Sincerely,
GJ/cw

Maple Island CommentfJ Rea~rdlna City Staff Proposal
e
1. ',nterest Rate on Prooosed Loan
The city finance director has proposed that a reasonable interest rate is 5
percent. We currently have a mortgage on the property for which we pay
prime plus 1Y2 percent. As a compromise,the lowest Interest rate that we can
accept from the city is prime. If the city wishes to have a lower rate. we prefer
that they borrow the money at their lower rate and pay us in cash.
2. ProDosed Three-Year Term Note
Maple Island suggested it would be willing to do a three-year note only if there
were certain conditions for prepayment of the note. Specifically. the city would
prepay the note if and when the use site closes or would prepay if it received
any federal, state or private funds to offset their purchase of the prison site.

Re: Development of Old Prison Site on North Main Street
The Washington County Historical Society, owner of the Wardens' House Museum directly
south of the old territorial prison site on North Main Street, approves of the plans presented
by Territorial Developers, Inc. and the Radisson Hotel for a hotel and convention center on
the site and have voted to recommend that the City Council approve their proposal.
The Historical Society board feels strongly that the site of the former territorial prison be
developed to preserve the buildings and walls still in place and to enhance the public's
knowledge of this important site in early Minnesota history. The developers' historically
sensitive design not only provides needed hotel, convention and restaurant facilities at the
north end of Stillwater but will also add to Stillwater's historic tourist attractions.
e
We look forward to implementation of these plans in the near future.

Dear Dave:
I appreciated meeting with you and other members of City staff yesterday. It was Illy
understanding that you are drafting a proposed resolution for the City Council meeting OJ). Tuesday
evening. That resolution would contain, a.t a m;n;mum, the following: .
Ie
1. The City will purchase the property from Maple Island with a substantial down payment
and payments due over three years. It is my understanding that Mr. Russell was going to
contact Mr. Greg Johnson at Maple Island to firm up some kind of deal with them. It will
be necessary for us to commence working on. an amendment to the Purchase Agreement to
allow for this to occur.
2.
lsta.ted that Mr. Borum and I would agree that if the City did not sell the property for the
axnount of the purchase price with Maple Island and recoup its holding costs, Mr. Borum
and I would guarantee $100,000 of any shortfall. It is my understanding that the City
would use $25,000 of the earnest money we have put down on the property as part of that
guarantee. That would leave $715,000 f'Or our perl50nal guarantees, which would be split
between Mr. Borum and myself at $37,500 each. If the City makes a profit after a sale we
will be entitled to reimbursement of our out-of~pocket development costs.
3.
After the City purchases the land, the City will transfer the portion. we D.eed for our
development which is based on the preliminary drawings of the arcbitect8, including the
parking areas. That transfer would occur on the date our construction financing is funded.
Territorial Coalition, Inc. will purchase the property from the City for one-half the cost that
the City pays to Maple Island on a Promissory Note and Mortgage payable in 10 years with

an imputed interest rate so the total amount due will equal the amoun.t the City paid for
the land from Maple Island all due and payable at the eJld of 10 years.
4. As discussed, the entity owning the hotel would allow municipal parking in our lot,
provided that it does not disrupt our opera.tions.
5. The hotel project will also maintain the property below the prison wall. (ie. maintaining
the parking lot, mowing the grass, trimming the trees, etc.)
6. The City will provide TIF financing in the amount of $139,000 over the life of the TIF
district, which I believe is 12 years.
7. The City and the developers will. enter into a Development Agreement.
I spoke with Mr. Alan Stevens who contacted Mr. Bill Atterbury of Atlantic International Mortgage
Company regarding a possible lease by the City for the hotel project. Mr. Atterbury stated that
he did not believe the proposal for a 40.year lease would work with lenders unless it was
subordinated to their debt. Such a lease arrangement may jeopardize the qualification of the
property for the historie rehabilitation tax credit. To the extent that a. lender will not agree to
finance without such a subordination or sucl1 a. lease jeopardizes our historic tax. credits, which are
necessary for the project, I object to such a P~OpoBal. I belie:ve that the risk to the City is minimal
once the project ill built. The City will have valuable park land, we will have taken the liability
from the property (the buildings) and the project will be generating enough revenue to mote than
offset the cost of the hotel project's land. -
e
I received yesterda.y from Radis80n Hospitality World\9i.de a signed License Agreement for a
RadissoD. franchise at the Stillwater site. Enclosed herewith and fu.ed to you, please find a copy
of a letter addressed to the Honorable Jay Kimble, Mayor of Stillwater, Minnesota. I will provide
an original of the letter to the City next week. If it is necessary, I will provide a copy of the
License Agreement for your review, but I do not wish a copy to become part of the public domain.
After you have reviewed this, please contact me with any questions or issues you Vlould like to
discuss.

e He: Territorial Prison Site
Dear Mr. Ma.gnuson:
...~
I have had en opportunity to review your memorandum dated July 12, 1996 addressed to the
Mayor, City Council and staff of the City of Stillwater regarding the Territorial Prison
redevelopment project. Generally, Tel has no problems with the issues presented in paragraphs
1 through 4 of your memorandum.. . -
Paragraph 5 relates to the method of repayment to the City. My letter to you of last Friday
indicates the unlikelihood of any lender agreeing w subordinate its interest to a 4O-year groUJ).d
lease. I believe that if any lender were to agree to the subordination, the lease would have to be
80mewhere in the neighborhood of 99 years with the option to purchase the land from. the City for
the unamortized cost. I stated to you in m.y letter of last Frida.y that TCI would be agreeable to
8uch a ground lease, if a lender were to agree to it (which is doubtful) and it did not jeopardize our
federal tax credits. 1 also believe that it puts the City in the business or mAnaging property for
a lengthy period of time. It would seem more attractive that the City receive repayment of their
purchase price in 10 years.
Ie
In paragraph 5(b) of your memorandwn, you di15cussed TCI's preferred method of handling the
transaction. I believe it is more aptly stated that that method is the one which will most likely
succeed. In any event, the major risk for which the City is concerned is assuring the project
receives its financing. At the point the property is conveyed to Tel, financing will be in pla.ce and
the closing will occur simultaneously with construction to then commence immediately,
Ai!. stated in my letter of July 12, 1996 addressed to you, part of the $100,000 personal guaranty
is made up of the $25,000 earnest money that Tel has put d.own 011 the project. The City D1uet
market the entire site in order for us to be per80nally responsible for the City's upenses relating
Mr. David Magnu80n
July 15, 1996
Page 2
e
to the site. Marketing only the "hotel portion" of the site is not acceptable. That is the portion
whicb contains the major liability to the value of the property, which is the buildings.
With Teference to paragraph 7 of YOUT memorandum, I spoke with Mr. Keith Slater of the
Minnesota Department of Transportation. He is tbe gentlemen handing the easement issue with
the State of Minn.esota. He informed me today, as he stated last fall in Mr. Russell's presence,
that the State normally does not chBl'S'e a municipality to move an easement or to vacate it if the
property is going to be used for public purposes. Again, he reiterated that MN DOT does not have
a use for the easement other than a minimal amount for right-of-way. I l5uggest that Mr. Russell
contact Mr. Slater at 582~ 1300 to acbieve a comfort level.
A!5 I have stated in the past, it is neceeary that the City staff' work out the final details of the
proposed purchase with Maple Island, Inc. before the Council meeting on Tuesday night. The
Purchase Agreement is currently in the cancellation period and will be cancelled aD. Friday I
July 26, 1996, if Maple Island, Inc. does not withdraw its cancellation or sign. an agreement in
writing to terminate the cancellation proceeding. It is imperative tha.t the City move forward
tomorrow night to approve the particulars of an agreement with Maple uland, Inc., so that it may
be signed by the City, Maple Island and Tel ixnmediately. Of course, we can work out the details
of the Development Agreement in the Meantime.
If you have any questions or wish to discusstbis, please feel free to contact me.

RE; Proposal for Rehabilitation and Development
Territorial Prison Site
Stillwater, Minnesota
e
Dear Mayor Kimble and Councilmembers:
I have had the pleasure of conferring on a number of occasions with Mr. Michael Borum and Mr. John
Lang regarding the rehabilitation of the former Territorial Prison site, a property listed on the National
Register of Historic Places for use as a Radisson Hotel and Suites. This is entirely consistent with the
recommendations of a recent reuse study undertaken through a joint effort of the City of Stillwater and
the State Historic Preservation Office. Specifically identified in the study were concerns for the
preservation of the historical. aesthetic, and cultural aspects of this unique property. Mr. Borum and
Mr. Lang, along with their architects and consultants) have expressed a strong desire and willingness
to incorporate these concerns into their proposal as priorities. Overall, their proposal has the potential
of creating a viable commercial project which will not only result in preservation of the historic
resource, but should also substantiany contribute to the community's economy and tax base.
It is my understanding that Mr. Borum and Mr. Lang have requested assistance from the City of
Stillwater in bringing this project to reality. Areas in which such assistance would be critical include
creative purchase and tax increment financing and technical input through the development process. I
am currently working with Mr. Borum and Mr. Lang to secure certification of this project for historic
tax credits. To qualify for these credits, the project must meet the Secretary of the Interior's Standards
for Rehabilitation; the current proposal unquestionably meets these rigorous criteria. I would encourage
the City of Stillwater to support this fine project!

The Honorable J a.y Kimble
Mayor of Stillwater, Minnesota
Stillwater City Council
Re: Radisson Hotel & Suites/Territorial Prison Site
Dear Mayor Kimble and City Council Members:
e
I would like to take this opportunity to discuss the various alternatives which may result from the
proposed development or failure to develop the historical prison site and to address various issues
that have been brought forth by City staff, primarily from Ms. DiBl1e Deblon, Finance Director for
the City of Stillwater.
The first scenario I would like to discuss is if the City purchases the property and the development
is completed. If this occurs, the following will result:
I
1. These historic buildings will be enhanced and preserved. I have not heard from anyone
who does not believe this should not occur.
2. The property will be developed into a premier hotel and tourist attraction which will
welcom.e people to the north end of downtown complimenting the existing businesses on
that end of town and the remain.der of the downtown historic district.
3. The City will have park land which will compliment the historic nature of the property and
provide additional open space. Not only the hotel, but the park itself will attract tourists.
4. The private development will pay for the maintenance of the park land below the priaon
wall which will be the main focus of the tourists who 'risit the site.
5.
The hotel devewpment will provide much needed additional municipal parkine-. This
parking may be cOJ:nplimented with the trolley system. The private development will
maintain the costs of the parking lot.

The Honorable Jay Kimble
Stillwater City Council
July 16, 1996

6. The hotel development will save significant costs of'the storm water problems above the site
by storing some or all of that storm water drainage on the hotel site alleviating the
necessity of having the City to pay all the cost of directing the water around the site.
7. The City will save the major cost of repairing the wall which has resulted from excess storm.
water drainage flowing through the waIl, which we all know is the City's responsibility.
Another developer will xnost likely require the City to divert all storm water and repair the
wall to its original condition.
8. The property will generate approximately $266,000 in real estate tax. revenue, when the site
currently only generates a.pproximately $27,000. Only $139,000 of the $266,000 will be
returned to the development for tax increment financing. The other amounts will go to the
school district, ek. Of course, after the TIF district ends, the $139,000 will also go to the
City. If the property is assessed at a higher value in the future all that additional tax
revenue will &'0 to the City.
9. The development will attract approximately 61,000 visitors to the Stillwater area. for
overnight lodiing accommodations and 102,000 for dini.ng and banquet events.
e
10. The site will ienerate approximately $10,736,000 in visitor expenditures annually including
$3,378,000 for accomm.odations, $3,227,000 for eating and drinkini establishments, and
$2,151,000 (or Stillwater attractiolls and retail stores.
;. -~
11. The development will create 130 new full-time and part-time jobs for the City of Stillwater
and pay approximately $1,300,000 annually in salaries and wages.
12. The development will purchase approximately $858,000 worth of supplies annually from
Stillwater area vendors.
If the development does not occur, the City will not receive the benefits outlined abovej the
property will most likely remain as an eyesore; the City will remain responsible for the cost of
diverting the storm water drainage and repairing the wall; there will be no park land; and there
will be no tourist attraction fOr the City. As can be seen from the letter of Mr. Gree Johnson,
president, Maple Island, Inc., Maple Island has been approached by other developers who wish to
remove the buildinp on the site and build condominiums or offWe space, or use the buildings for
liiht manufacturing. This will do nothing to house the tourists which already visit the City or
attract future tourism to the site or more importantly preserve the historic nature of the site.
e
If the City purchases the property and the development is completed, all the benefits outlined
above will occur even if the project runs into financial difficultly in the future.
Another potential alternative that could occur would be that the City buys the site and the
development is not completed as planned. Obviously, I do not believe this will occur, but City staff
has brought up that risk. If the City does purchase the property and the development does not
occur, the following will be achieved:
I .
The Honorable Jay Kimble
Stillwater City Council
July 16, 1996
Page 3
.
1. The City will gain control of tbis valuable site for future development allowing the City to
determine the future of the site 8.S opposed to the whim of some future buyer. The site has
been appraised for at least $850,000 and is worth much more it the buildings are torn
down.
2. The City will avoid ha'Ving to deal with a potentially uncooperative developer in the future
who may do the following;
a. not give the City any park land;
b. tear the buildings down;
c. require the City to imm.ediately repair the prison wall to its original condition;
d. require the City to expend significant additional amounts of money for storm. water
problems;
e. not give the City any municipal parking rights; and
f.
leave the property in a state of disrepair and a continuing eyesore in the future.
e
The last alternative :is that the City does nothing and the Purchase Agreement with Maple Island
is cancelled. If the City does not buy the site, all the problems that I haVe outlined above and
many others that you can only imagine may occur with the site.
The answer seems obvioua to me and to all those individuals I have spoken to regarding the
development of this site. It is im.portant that the city understand that this window of opportunity
will not present itself again in the future. Once the City loses control of that site, the opportwrlty
will be gone forever.
I am concerned that the mayor and the City Council are not aware of all the facts regarding the
site. I believe that Tel should have the opportunity to clarify issues which are brought forth from
staff and are never presented to Tel for its response. First, I would like to address the issues
brought forth in the mem.orandum olMs. Diane Deblon, Finance Director for the City of Stillwater,
dated July 2, 1996. This memorandum was submitted to the Council in the middle of its meeting
on July 2, 1996. TCI had not had the opportunity to review it until recently. Ms. Deblon refers
to Mr. Inman, the consultant, but has never provided the Council with any written response from
Mr. Inman. As a result, no one has been able to adequately analyze Mr. Inman's report or discuss
the issues contained therein. I would like to note that the two issues Ms. Deblon was originally
concerned with related to the issues of whether Tel was to receive an inordinate developer's fee
and whether the proformas were in order. These issues were not shown as a concern by Mr.
Inman. However, I will respond to Ms. Deblon's memorandum dated July 2, 1996 by paracraph
number.
In paragraph 1 Ms. Deblon discUSBeI5 the land purchase. I believe we have resolved the concern
regarding the contingency by allowing the City to purchase the property for a down payment with
a note payable over three years. We have discussed the financing for which we have applied and

the necessary contingencies that m1l8t be resolved before the financing occurs. A signed Franchise
Agreem.ent has been entered into with Radisson. I have provided the mayor and Council with a
copy of a letter from Radisson stating the agreement with Radisson has been executed. If someone
would like to review the License Agreement they may, but I do not belieV'e it is the type of
document which should be circulated in the public domain. We have a proposed Management
Agreement from Radisl30n and are in the process of negotiating its final terms. The carrying costs
listed in :Ms. Deblon's memorandum BJ"e incorrect.
In paragraph 2 the tax increm.ent financing issue is discussed. The amOl1J:lt of the present value
of the TIF stated in the memorandum. is $816.271 by using a present value of $139,000 per year
in TIF funds. This is not entirely correct, in that, the full tax assessment or the property will not
be in placa until after the hotel has been placed in service. As a result, the '816,271 will be
significantly less by approximately two ye81'S ofTIF payments. In any event. we have no problems
identifying that there is enough TIF qualifying construction costs to provide that level of
assistance. .
In paragraph 3 the tax credits are discussed. It states that the proforma Mr. Inman reviewed
assumed the project did not receive any historical tax credits. That is untrue. Mr. Inman received
a proforma that did include the approximately $937,500 in historical tax credits. They were just
not allocated to each individual investor to show a rate of return. Some investors may not Q.ualify
for the use of all these tax credits each year or their tax rates may vary, & a result, we felt it best
that the amount be left off the rate of return calculation on equity so that each investor could
discuss that matter with their tax advisor. Had the tax credits been prorated to each individual
inve~tor, the rate of return would go up, but not to the point where assistanca &om the City would
not be needed. I discussed those ."ery i68ues with Mr. Inman on the telephone.
In paragraph 4. the memorandum discusses potential cost reductions and states that additional cost
sa'Vings should reduce the need for tax increment. We ha.ve gone over this project with a fine tooth
comb, discussed it with the architects and several contractors. In fact, Ms. DebloD stated in our
meeting last week that Mr. Inman felt the project "WaS very expensive. This supports the reason
we have asked for help from the City for the purchase of the land and for TIF. Those items
coupled with tbe historical tax creditlS make the project feasible. If we believed there were
additional construction costs that could be saved, we would have implemented them by now.
In paragraph 5 the iaaue of security prior to construction is discussed. That is resolved by the City
holding title to the property until we close on our construction financing. Additionally, after
closing and during construction, all contractors will be bonded.
In paragraph 6 the memorandum discussed the City getting paid if the property is "old or
refinanced prior to the end. of the lO-year term. I have stated to City staff that 1'Ie have no
problem with that provision.
In regard to the memorandum of July 12, 1996 from Ms. Diane Deblon, addressed to the MayoT
and City Council, I have several comments. Again,! would like to reiterate the fact that Tel has
never been iiven an opportunity to respond to these memorandWll8, which normally come out at
the last moment and only discus" the concerns that Ms. Deblon may have, but never discuss the
positive financial impact the development of this property will have for the City. I do however
. .

.
appreciate Ms- Deblon pointing out that this is a much~needed developIIlent on the north side of
downtown and would provide a clustering of businesses that compliJnent each other.
Ms. Deblon in her memorandum goes OD. to point out that on February 13, 1996 TOl presented the
project and requested assistance from the City. Currently, Tel fs requesting that the City
purchase the land for $870,000, provide "pay as you go" TIF assistance and work with the
developers in alleviating the drain-age issues. TOl has not requested that the wall be restored to
its original condition and has stated that it will help the City by allowing some or all of the storm
water drain-age to go through or under the wall and pond below the wall. As a result, the only
costs to the City will be the purchase of the land, which will be repaid. The City will actually esave
funds relating to the storm water drainage issues as opposed to diverting all the storm water
around the site. I believe Ms. Deblon's memorandum is mieleading in that it states a. total request
for the project as a cost of $3,038,000. This is very misleading. The "pay as you go" fIF assistance
does not cost the City anything. The cost of the retaining wall and drainage improvem.en-ts of
$500,000 listed by Ms. Deblon is incorrect. Where the figure came from I do not know, but again,
the proposal by Tel actually saves the City money. The land purchase is only $870,000, $25,000
of which has already been paid by TCI and $600,000 which can. be deferred on a note to Maple
Island, Inc.
Ms. Deblon point8 out the fact that the City would lose ita investlnent if the project failed because
it would be in a second position. This is not true. The City would still own approximately five e
acres of park land which has significant value. It would also control the site which is also of
sigDificant value. The project wot1ld also be generating significant reven.ues and tax dollars for the
City which would more than offset the investment the City will have made in the property.
Co:m.m.unity leaders and the citizens of Stillwater have shown overwhelming support for this
project. Tel h8.5 ebown a willingness to work closely 'With all individuals and groups who have an
interest in the site whether financial or otherwise. We have put forth a proposal which not only
addresses the concerns of all who have an interest, but is the prefelTed positive use of the site.
How often have you seen any developer work so well and so closely with. public and quasi~public
entities. I believe we have addressed the majority of the concerns of the Council and Staff. Of
course, there are always risks associated with 8DY activity. However, the opportunity this project
presents for the citizens of Stillwater and the State as a whole, far outweighs any potential risk.
I sincerely hope you have the foresight to act on this windoW' of opportunity.
Very truly yours,

The Honorable Jay Kimble
Mayor, Stillwater
RE: SIGNATURES OF SUPPORT FOR HOTEL/PARKLAND PROJECT
..
Dear Mr. Mayor & City Councilmen:
Enclosed are signatures of suppolt from Stillwater residents concerning
the proposed Radisson Hotel & Suites/Parkland project at the Territorial
Prison Site.
These 200+ signatures were gathered in various sections of the North
and South HiIJ districts. Of all residents interviewed thus far, 96% have
elected to sign supporting the assistance of city funds paid back. at the
end of 10 years.
In 1853 the City of Stillwater was granted funds to build the Territory's
Prison that later became the first Minnesota State Prison. In the early
1980s the City had the Site place on the National Register of Historic
Places. We believe, it is indeed City & State Government's
responsibili1y to assist any project that involves the restoration of these
historic buildings as they are a vital resource with which to gage our
state's past.
We strongly urge the CouncR to vote in favor of this project as it is the
best possible re for this site.

To: Mayor and Council Members
City of StillW~ r .
From: Ed Cain, L~
Subject: Availability of Funding Related to the Territorial Prison Site
At the request of the Mayor I have looked into potential funding for the purchase and
development of the area where the old Territorial Prison site is located. I have met with
State agency officials, Senator Gary Laidig, and Representative Mark Holsten. We have
set forth a strategy for State support that is achievable provided it is approached
carefully, and that the appropriate groundwork is laid before the Legislative Session
begins.
Further, I have contacted several foundations that support the type of development
being discussed for the territorial prison site. Their responses have been conditionally
positive. They set forth a criteria which I believe meets the goals and concepts of City's
development plans,
While no funding agency will give assurances of an approved program on a verbal
presentation, I was given from moderate to very strong encouragement from all of the
contacts I made. They also pointed out strengths that such a proposal would have, In
every contact, the foundation officials were receptive to the idea of preservation of the
site.
The areas for which funding was discussed are as follows:
e
(1) The acquisition of the property.
(2) The repair of the retaining wall structure.
(3) The construction of a walkway with historic interpretive stations.
(4) Maintenance and operation of the site.
State Funding:
State funding would appropriately require two or three different approaches. The
construction and development of the interpretive walkway could be initiated as a special
bill which would come under the departmental budget of the State Historic Society.
Work under this approach would require the support of several State agencies, and the
appropriate Legislative Committees, Such action could occur in the 1997 Legislative
Session. The land could be the City's contribution to the project.
.
e
Page 2.
The work on the retaining wall is a natural for support in the State Bonding bill.
Major bonding bills are passed only on the even numbered years. Consequently, funds
under this authority would not be available until May, 1998.
Additional funding for the historic walkway and other aspects of the project not
needed until 1998 could be included in this request. As you may recall, Stillwater has
received an appropriation in every major bonding bill since 1992. I believe our chances
would be very good.
I have had several conversations with Corrections Commissioner Frank Wood, and
Deputy Commissioner Jim Bruton regarding the preservation and use of the site. I
believe that there may be areas of development that the Department of Corrections
would love to be involved in with the City. There support at the State level could be very
important.
Foundation Responses:
Several conditions were mentioned by different foundation officials that would need
to addressed before applications were made for funding.
(1) They would want the City to conduct a fund raising program, of which they would be
a participant. They did not want to be the only donor.
(2) The site must be publicly owned, and for the use of the general public.
(3) No foundation funds could be used for a commercial venture (In other words, the
hotel and the interpretive walkway must be separate projects,)
(4) The City plans for the preservation of the site and the buildings were greeted with
strong support.
(5) The fact that the project is located in Stillwater was a very positive factor.
In summary, I believe the City could obtain substantial funding for certain aspects of
the project. The State and the foundations have their own time table, and it does not
always parallel the plans of the City or the developer. Based on the areas of need
presented to the State and funding agencies, I believe the outside support for the
development of the site would significantly exceed the purchase price of the land to the
City. The Funding and development of the prison site will open up the opportunity for
additional funding sources to carry out projects important to Stillwater and the
community.

RE: Stillwater Dental Associates / Subdivision
Dear Steve:
I was unable to reach you be phone today. I have determined
that the assessments on the above-referenced project are
being held in escrow at Attorney's Title. We are waiting
fora Deed from the State of MinnesQta transferring title
back to the Feelys, who have executed a Warranty Deed in
favor of Stillwater Dental Associates, LLC. The deed from
the State should be here any day. . As soon as it arrives the
title company will pay the assessments.
As such, the staff recommendation that the subdivision be
approved subject to payment' of the assessments should be
removed and the subdivision approved at the July 16 City
'" ,-Council !I\eeti:p.g.
Please call me if you have any questions and to confirm that
Stillwater Dental Associates is on the July 16th Agenda.
Perri Kauls, DDS will be appearing at the meeting.

TO: Mayor and City Council ~~
FROM: Diane Deblon, Finance Director
DATE: July 11, 1996
SUBJECT: Planning Case SUB/96-29
At your last meeting the city council tabled this item at the request of the applicant due to a
question regarding the balance of assessments in the amount of$26,112.19. It is my
understanding that the title company has the $26,112.19 balance of outstanding assessments and
is holding the money in their escrow account. .
Based on the fact that the title company has escrowed the funds, the city council should require
the conditions of approval for the resubdivision to include payment in full of the special
assessments outstanding.

,RE: Stillwater Dental Associates/ Subdivision

._; .op" ,
:I was told by Steve Russell and his staff that we first had
'to, submit the proposed Cross Easements and Covenants.
',Enclosed are our proposed documents for your review. Also
<enclosed is a proposed Conservation Easement. The City ,of
'Stillwater is the proposed holder. '
At this time I would like to make it clear that my clients
intend to be placed on the City Counc~l agenda for the July
16th meeting. By copy of this letter I am also enclosing
the above referenced documents to Steve Russell and would
ask that he ensure Stillwater Dental Associates subdivision
matter be placed on the July 16th City Council agenda.
I think it is unfair for the City staff to require my client
.to pay the assessments as a requirement for the subdivision.
For your information, the sellers {Feely'S} of the land.
involved agreed to pay the assessments. I am checking with
Bob Briggs at Attorney's Title to see why this was not done. .
In addition, since this was tax-forfeited land, we are still
waiting for Feely's title reinstatement from the State of
Minnesota.
Dave, I also wondered whether you will be.preparing a
Perpetual Drainage and Underground Utility Easement to
record on the property. I understand that is a City
requirement and should be added to the survey.
Please feel' free to call me if. you have' any questions.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FR: Steve Russell, Community Development Director V
DA: July 12, 1996
RE: CONTINUATION FOR DECISION OF 32 LOT (31 ACTUAL) SUBDIVISION,
INTERLACHEN HILLS 3RD ADDITION, TRAIL HEAD DEVELOPMENT
CORPORATION, JIM PETERSON APPLICANT
Background
This item was extensively heard by the Planning Commission at its meetings of May 13
and June 6 and the City Council July 2. The Planning Commission recommended the
subdivision with a reduction of 1 lot from 32 to 31 and with changes to Interlachen Drive
design (to better fit in with the neighborhood).
A related request for vacation of Interlachen Drive between Crestwood Terrace and the
end of Interlachen Drive accounts for the development of one of the remaining 31 lots.
If the vacation of Interlachen Drive is not approved, the proposed subdivision is 30 lots
(lot 8 would not be developed) see item SV-96-30 for staff rev~w of street vacation and
conditions of vacation).
Council Meeting of July 2, 1996
At the July 2nd Council meeting the Council heard the project presented and received
comments and petitions from the neighborhood. Concerns expressed were regarding
wetland impact, drainage, park purchase, in lieu fee or dedication and traffic. A
neighborhood representative presented an alternative plan that they felt better
addressed their concerns. A petition for an EAW was also presented at the meeting
and since then received from the Environmental Quality Board (the information
presented by the neighborhood is not included in this report but was passed out to all
Council members at the July 2nd meeting and is available in the file).
Since the July 2nd meeting the city planner and city engineer has met with the land
developer and his engineer to further examine the alternative subdivision patterns and
to look at the impacts of the various alternatives.
Three alternatives were reviewed. Alternatives 1-b, 2 and 3. Each alternative is
e marked on an enclosed map and the positive and negative effects of the subdivision
pattern described from an engineering, road maintenance, parks, planning, land
planning and public safety traffic impact point of view.
e
Alternative 1-b. Alternative 1- b is the alternative previously considered by the council
at the July 2nd meeting with a land dedication for parks. Lots 17 and 18 have been set
aside for park. Because of city dedication requirements, lot 16 would most likely have
to be provided for park dedication to account for the .69 acre park requirement.
Besides on-site park dedication, Alternative 1-b is the same as the original Alternative
1-a. Traffic would be split between Maryknoll and CR 12. No vehicle access would be
provided to Crestwood Terrace. The street vacation could or could not occur although
without the vacation one less lot, 27, lots would result. .
This subdivision pattern calls into question who would pay the costs of constructing 350
feet of Interlachen Drive (from the corner of Interlachen Way to the west edge of the
park). Tyler Smith parcels and the Cowen parcel would benefit from the construction
(road and utilities and would normally have to pay a share of the costs at est. $100 per
linear foot). The City of Stillwater would be the owner of the north 350 feet of the north
side of the street where the dedicated "park" would be located. This park area would
not be adequate space or a good location, next to an intersection for children play
equipment (normal neighborhood park activity) but rather used as an open space rest
spot for viewing the wetland. Other wetlands in the area are Deerpath Pond and
McKusick Lake. Wetland impacts would be reduced because lots 17 and 18 would be
used for park purposes and not developed. This alternative preserves open space
corridor of the site around the existing wetlands along the western boarder of the site e
screening the site from Croixwood would be preserved.
In summary, Alternative 1-b would result in 3 or 4 fewer lots and road construction cost
to the adjacent property owners and city.
Alterative 2. Alternative 2 connects Interlachen Drive to Pineridge Lane as the through
street. Traffic would be distributed to Maryknoll and County Road 12 as with Alternative
1-a and 1-b. Their would be less likelihood for though traffic because of the additional
turning movement to get through the area. In this alternative, the wetland and adjacent
area to the south is set aside for park. This pattern result in 26 lots. The vacation of
Interlachen Drive would not be required and lots along the south side of the right of way
and the City would be responsible for extending Interlachen Drive if needed at some
point in the future. This subdivision pattern results in the most destruction to the site
with the extension of Pineridge Lane the entire western side of the site is graded and
most of the existing vegetation removed. The drainage pond on lots 18, 17, 11 and 10
is located in a site high point requiring retaining walls of as tall as 10 foot. The park
area in Alternative 2 is relative isolated and best suited for a natural open space use
(passive recreation). In this alternative wetland mitigation will be located next to
Deerpath Pond a DNR type wetland. The subdivision pattern fights the site topography
and vegetation cover. The entire western portion of the site will be graded and
recontoured and the number of lots reduced by 5 from 31 to 26.
ei
e
It
e
Alternative 3. Alternative 3 subdivision pattern included no thorough street access.
Three cui de sacs are located at the end of each street. This results in more traffic on
the existing streets and no connection or through access for public safety. The cui de
sac length are at the City maximum. The City costs for plowing cui de sac street are
much higher because of required hauling and special plowing. The park area set aside
would be most appropriate for a natural open space area. It is relatively isolated and
would have a passive open space use.
A portion of the costs of road improvements may be a city costs. Access to lots south
of the development site would have to be provided at a later date by the south property
land owners. This alternative does preserve the natural corridor thorough the
development as does Alternative 1-a and 1-b. The western boundary of the site
separating the development from Croixwood is largely preserved with this pattern of
development. Twenty-six lots result from this development pattern.
In summary, this alternative would restrict traffic movement and reduce public safety,
increase city road maintenance costs resulting in a natural open space park area and
possible incur city costs for road improvements.
Original ProposaI1-a. The original proposal maintains an open space corridor through
the project working with existing vegetation and topographic conditions. Access to the
open space drainagelwetland area is provided from Interlachen Way. Besides the
development open space, the developer would pay $46,000 in park dedication fees.
The money could be used to purchase additional land to provide access to the park
(Cowen property) or improve park drainage. The complete road system would be paid
by the developer with the exception of Tyler Smith property. The drainage plan and
draft wetland mitigation plan meet the State Wetlands Con~ervation Act requirements.
The original development can proceed with or without the vacation of Interlachen Drive.
The original development plan results in 30 or 31 lots compared to the 26 or 27 lots
from alternatives 1-b, 2 and 3.
Recommendation: Decision on request, staff and planning commission recommend
Alternative 1-a.
Attachments
Findings:
1. The project will result in no potential significant environmental impacts based on the
project design, conditions of approval and draft Wetland Mitigation Plan (resolution).

recorded on all effected lots to keep the buffer area in a natural condition.
4. A wetland mitigation plan shall be prepared and approved by the city engineer
before the final plat is approved.
5. A grading/drainage/erosion control plan shall be approved before final plat approval.
6. The Pine tree buffer on the west boarder of the site shall be protected during
grading and site development.

Dear Mayor Kimble & City Councilmen,
All of you must have the patience of Job, to be able to sit through all of the hearings
and meetings you have to endure! Thanks for taking the time & making the effort to
put up with all of us coming before the City Council. We each have our own needs

times.

Jnterlachen Drive (Case No. SV/96.SQ).. . In my opinion, there was a mis-informed
comment from Councilman Cummings during your July 2nd marathon session. I
believe he stated something to the effect that the traffic study about this topic was
'severely flawed'. That is a serious allegation. I hope it was a simple emotional
generalization, made in the heat of the moment (& the reality) of some of the
sUlTounding traffic concerns.
Obviously there are traffic problems on roads in our area (e.g. Deer Path &
Maryknoll, etc.) that are causing significant headaches and concerns. Those
problems will need to be addressed. They will not improve on their own and they
will not be helped by any additional development. Your engineering people are
undoubtedly the best at determining the proper way of dealing with these problems
(additional stop signs, barriers, bumps, lights or whatever).
However, 'absolutelylpositively' the Droblems willbe mide worse ifvou connc~
JnteJ"lac~ ~o Cr~~wo~s!. Please believe me when I say that this is not sour
grapes from a resident who doesn't want to give up living on a deadend street.
Several of you know my background as a former Pastor at Trinity Church; if I truly
believed that connecting Interlachen to Crestwood would help others, then I would
be in favor of itl .
However. it would be disastrous when the additional traffic onto Fairmeadows :from,
Crestwood would attempt to gain access to CountySIOlive street. I know".rve suffered
with that intersection for 18 years. As you undoubtedly observe when driving by,
Fairmeadows intersects with County 51 Olive Street in the middle of a curve on a hill!
Stop up here early some weekday morning & try and go East (left) onto County 5
City Coundl..Stillwater. Minnesota

from Fairmeadows. See what a thrill it is! Then imagine what's it's like
during/after a snowstorm, when there's a snow/slush buildup on the end of
Fairmeadows (from the plow going by on County 5, a snow emergency route)! Just
when you think there's a break in the traffic, there is no traction to accelerate onto
the street. After you've tried that, then stop up here some weekday evening & try
and go West (left) onto Fairmeadows from County 5, When we residents are trying
to turn left onto Fairmeadows, Westbound County 5 traffic is routinely speeding
while going up and around the curve. I don't mean this in a flippant way...but if any
Council persons or City employees would like to experience this firsthand, I would be
happy to personally chauffeur you through this intersection.
e
There was a Maryknoll resident at the July 2nd meeting who presented you with a
petition asking for Interlachen to connect to Crestwood. He was well intentioned,
but he was wrong on the following:
1. I think he indicated that the 'sight lines' at Oakridge & County 5 are worse than
the sight lines at Fairmeadows & County 5. Please check with your engineers. That
cannot be possible. Fairmeadows/County 5 is much more treacherous & the sight
lines are very poor!
2. I think he stated that the width of Crestwood is 38 feet (i.e. wider than
Maryknoll). I don't know the width of Maryknoll...but I did measure Crestwood. It's
not 38 feet. Again, if necessary, please ask your engineers to actually measure the
street. However, the width of the Crestwood is not the problem...turning onto
County 0 from Fairmeadows or going West onto Fairmeadows from County 5 is the
problem! In other words, the heart of the problem is that where Fairmeadows
intersects County 5 in the middle of a curve on a hill is a very dangerous location.
I understand why some or the residents of Maryknoll think they would be helped if
the street vacation is not permitted...however, this is only because they have no
reason to be aware of the larger problems with Fairmeadows/County 5~ They
obviously want and need some relief. However, connecting up with Crestwood will
only create a new and more serious problem! Obviously, I strongly ur~e the COl\n~il
to vacate Imerl~clwl.
On the subject of access to Meadowlark park: As stated to Steve Russell as well as
to the Planning Commission & to the Council on July 2nd, we are willing to work.
with the City or developer with a currently undeveloped lot we own (Lot 9). At thIS
point in time we do not want a home built on it. If the street is vacated, we would be
happy to discuss having it be used as an addition and/or access to Mea~owlark Park.
However if Interlachen will not be vacated, we assume that the City Will not
(cannot?) landlock our Lot(s). As stated during the last Council meeting, the park
needs improvement(s). Additional residents will only add to that need for more and
improved park space.
With Kind Regards,
~~

Dear Steve,
I would like to indicate my support for Trailhead Corporation's 3] lot development proposal for
our land south of the existing Interlachen homes. Our preliminary plat some years ago before
wetland considerations was for 39 lots.
I thought you, the City Council, and others might be interested in what we went through to get
the land to its current condition,
We found an old dump while doing grading during the fall of 1986. After consultations with the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and considering one of their options to mound the dump and
install methane gas monitoring wells around the perimeter, We decided to take their second
option and haul the dump out.
We had ~,092 truckloads and a tota134,938 cubic yards of refuse that we hauled to Pine Bend,
Minnesota. Our cost of the removal in 1987 was $347,098.00. We think that the right decision
was made although none of the expense was recoverable from the former owners of the property.
I am enclosing some photographs taken of the dump during removal showing its proximity to the
Croixwood neighborhood.
Wishes,

RE: . pet-ition for an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW)_ for the
Interlachen Hills 3rd Addition
Dear Mr. Russell:
'The Environmental Quality Board (EQB) has received q petition requesting
that an EAW be prepared on the project described in' the petition, and has
determined that the City of Stillwater' is th'e appropriate governmental unit'
to decide the need for'an EAW; Therequi!ements for environmental review,
. including the preparation of an EAW, can be found .in the. Minnesota Rules,
chapter '4410. .. Please c.ontact me if you do not have 'access' to these rules.
The .proceduresto be followed' in making the EAWdecision are set forth in
.' par.t 4410.1.100.. Key pqints in thepro"cedures include':
.1.
No final government approv~lsmay be given to the project named in
the petitions, nor may constructionon.the.project be started until
the need for an EAW h~s been determined. Project construction
.includes any activities which. dfrectly affect.tl1e. environment,
including preparation of land.. If the decision'.is to prepare an EAW,
approval.~ust be withheld untileitl1er a Negative peclaration'is
is~ued or an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).is completed (see
.part '4410.3100.) . .
e-
2. A first step in making the decision regarding the need for an EAW
would be to compare the project to the mandatory EAW, EIS and
. Exemption categories listed in .parts 4410.4300, 4410,4,400, and
4410,4600, respectively'. If the project should fall tinder ,any of
these categories,. eriyironme'ntal review i,s automatically .re~ired or
-prohibited. If this should be the case.. proceed accordingly..
. .
.3. Ifprepar~tion of an EAW is neither mandatory n9r. e:x:empted, the City
has the option topr~pare an EAW. . The standard .to be used to decide
if a,n EAW should be done is given in part 4410.1100, subp. 6. . Note
. that this' reqUires. that a record o~..decision inc.luding specific
. findings of fact be maintained ~ . . .
4. . You are allowed 30 working.days (Saturdays, Sundays and holidays do'
not count) for your. decision H it will -be. made by.acouncil, board,
or other body which meets only periodically,' or1S working days if it
will. be made by a single individual., You may.request an e:x:tra 15
days from EQB. if the. decisiOn will be made by .an individual.

MEMORANDUM
e TO: Planning Commission
FR: Steve Russell, Community Development Director
~,.
DA: June 7, 1996
RE: CONTINUE HEARING FOR 32-LOT SUBDIVISION, INTERLACHEN HILLS 3RD
ADDITION (CASE NO. SUB/96-31)
This subdivision application was before the commission at your May 13, 1996 meeting and
continued to this June 10, 1996 meeting to further address issues raised at the May 13
meeting.
Changes since last review include; (1) the reduction of the number of lots to meet the zoning
lot size requirements; (2) redesigning Interlachen Drive to lower the grade of the road as it
relates to adjust properties; and (3) modification to the drainage plan and wetland mitigation
consistent with the wetland conservation act
Staff referred the project to the city traffic engineer for review and the city engineer reviewed,
again, the drainage plan as it relates to impact on the surrounding area.
e
As can be seen in the revised subdivision, one lot along Interlachen Drive south of the pond
has been eliminated. This results in the remaining lots meeting subdivision lot area
requirements. The project will not effect drainage conditions on surrounding developed areas.
All drainage is contained and controlled on site. The design for Interlachen Drive has been
modified (lowered) resulting in the road being two feet above existing land contour rather then
the previously proposed six feet. This allows easier access to the lots south of Interlachen
Drive and "fits" in better with existing conditions.
The city traffic engineer has reviewed the proposed road design and feels it will work as
proposed and the project will not significantly impact existing traffic conditions in the area.
One other issue that was brought up was a stop sign at Interlachen Way and Interlachen
Drive, Staff would suggest that a stop sign is not needed at that location based on the design
of the road but if it proves necessary for safety reasons it could be reviewed and added at
some later date.
Conditions of approval have been modified to reflect the changes in plans.
Recommendation: Approval with conditions
Attachment: Modified plans
e
CPC Action on June 10, 1996: +7-0 approval
Revised Conditions of Approval
SUB/96-31
e
~ The pedestrian/ bicycle trail or sidewalk shall be extended from Maryknoll along
. Interlachen Drive to Crestwood Terrace and along Interlachen Way.
.,q:/ A permanent cui de sac or hammer head acceptable to the city engineer shall be
constructed at the end of Crestwood Terrace.
~ The overhead utility lines along Interlachen Drive shall be underground from
Maryknoll to Crestwood Terrace.
'4. Driveway access off of improved Interlachen Drive shall be provided to the lots on
the south side of the improved roadway.
5. Park dedication fees shall be paid and used to make substantial improvements
(drainage) to the park and to provide better access to the park as available.
6. A 25 foot natural buffer shall be located around all wetlands with a deed restriction
recorded to maintain the buffer area in a natural condition.
7. A wetland mitigation plan shall be prepared according to the Wetland
Conservation Act for all filled areas as approved by the city engineer before the
final plat is approved.
e
8. A grading/drainage plan including erosion control and tree protection measures
shall be approved by the city engineer before final plat approval.
9. The existing pine trees along the west property line shall be protected and
maintained and shown on the grading plan.
. .10. If the street vacation is approved, the developer shall relocate the driveway to the
garage for the residence at 202 Crestwood Terrace.

PLANNING COMMISSION
June 10, 1996
Present:
Jerry Fontaine, chairman
Glenna Bealka, Dave Charpentier, Kirk Roetman,
Don Valsvik, Darwin Wald, and Terry Zoller
Others:
Steve Russell, Community Development Director
Absent:
Rob Hamlin and Thomas Weidner
Chairman Fontaine called the meeting to order at 7:05 p.m.
Mr. Wald, seconded by Mr. Valsvik, moved approval of the minutes of May
13, 1996; all in favor.
Case No. SUB/96-31 A preliminary plat approval for a 32-lot subdivision
on 15.22 acres located south of Bayberry Avenue Court in the RA-Single
Family Residential District. Trail Head Development Corp., applicant.
e
Representing the applicant were Jim Peterson and William McCully. City
Engineer Klayton Eckles also was present for the discussion.
Mr. McCully went through the revised plan. The major revisions are the
removal of one lot and the alignment of Interlachen. Mr. McCully also went
through staff's recommended conditions of approval and the developer's
response to the conditions.
Signe Cowen, 202 Crestwood Terrace, gave a history of the property.
Lynette Newman, 203 Crestwood Terrace, showed a video of the property,
elevations, wetlands and potential drainage problems. .
Sheila Maybanks, 201 Bayberry Court, spoke of the need to respect the
environment; she also suggested that the city not accept a fee in lieu of
park land dedication.
Tim Cowen, 202 Crestwood Terrace, showed photos of Meadowlark Park
taken after a May 19 rainfall and said water management is a serious
problem in the area. Cindy Green, 204 Crestwood Terrace, said water
issues and preservations of wetlands are of greatest concern.; David Green
asked about the city's water/land management policies regarding
environmental protection and showed photos of several eroded areas at
other development sites.
e
roo.
I
Amy Storbakken, 301 Maryknoll Drive, asked if the city had attempted to _
quantify the recreational value of the area. She requested that the city ..
postpone approval until data is gathered to determine the area's value as a
park/open space.
Speaking about a concern for additional traffic on Maryknoll were Steve
Sweetland, 214 Maryknoll Drive., Deanna Storbakken, 301 Maryknoll Drive,
and Doug Dornfeld, 303 Maryknoll Drive.
Also raising concerns about runoff and other issues were: Bill Ward, 462
Bayberry Ave. Court; Frank Biontek, 197 Maryknoll; Ann Letizio, 189
Maryknoll; and Kathy Kraucht, 201 Interlachen Way.
Signe Cowen summarized concerns and asked that the developer consider a
new plat that does not enclose the wetland and provides access to the
wetland through Meadowlark Park; that the develop utilize increased silt
fencing measures, preserve trees and provide a buffer around the wetland
area.
Mr. Russell responded to comments about traffic issues. He said the
traffic engineer says the road (Maryknoll) has the capacity for any
additional traffic the project would generate. He also noted the concern is e
part of the Deer Path issue (cut-through traffic) the city has yet to come
to grips with.
Mr. Eckles responded to the wetland/water issue. He said he thought the
developer had done a good job, pointing out the wetland easement will
provide a large natural area. He said it was his opinion the plan does a
good job at wetland preservation, pointing out the proposed mitigation
plan exceeds state requirements. Mr. Peterson said the developer wants to
preserve wetlands as an amenity and suggested that many of the
comments/concerns were a result of past engineering practices, rather
than what is proposed in the development plan.
Most of the discussion by commission members centered on the condition
of approval regarding' park dedication and Mr. Russell's suggestion that the
city might want to require a payment in lieu of land to make
improvements to and provide better access to Meadowlark Park. Mr.
Valsvik noted the park will need a lot of work because of the existing
water/drainage problems. Mr. Valsvik suggested changing the language in
condition of approval No. 5 to indicate the developer shall pay a park
dedication fee to be used to "make substantial improvements to e
Meadowlark Park and provide better access to the park as land might be
.:
b
e
available." (Park fees to be paid by the developer would amount to
$35,000-$40,000.)
Mr. Roetman, seconded by Mr. Wald, moved approval as conditioned, with
the revised condition of approval No.5. Motion passed unanimously.
Case No. SV /96-30 A street vacation for all that portion of Interlachen
Drive between Crestwood Terrace and proposed Interlachen Way. Trail
Head Development Corp., applicant.
Mr. Zoller, seconded by Mr. Roetman, moved approval as conditioned, with
the additional condition suggested by Mr. Peterson that approval is pending
final plat approval. Motion passed unanimously.
Case No. SUP/96-33 A special use permit for home occupation, massage
therapy in a residence located at 1202 W. Myrtle St. in the RA-Single
Family Residential District. Sister Germaine Perreault, RN, applicant.
The previous resident of the home also had a massage therapy business.
Kay Boyce, 1222 W. Myrtle St., questioned whether there would be more
than one business conducted from the home. Lauren Fouks, previous
resident, assured Ms. Boyce that was not the case.
e
Mrs. Bealka, seconded by Mr. Roetman, moved approval as conditioned; all
in favor.
Case No. DR/SUP/V /96-35 A design permit and special use permit for a
self-service car wash -- 6 bay -- and variance for a second wall sign
located on Lot 3 and the southwest 20 feet of Lot 4, Block 2, Stillwater
Market Place 2nd Addition located in the BP-C Business Park Commercial
District. Krongard Construction, applicant.
Jack Krongard was present for the discussion.
Most of the discussion centered on the requested variance for a second
sign which would face County Road 5. Mr. Krongard spoke of his need for
the additional signage.
e
Mr. Roetman said signage on County Road 5 was specifically addressed
when the Market Place development was approved; signage on the rear
elevation (County Road 5) of businesses in Stillwater Market Place is not
allowable.

Re: Revised submittal of preliminary grading plan for
Interlachen Hills Third Addition
Dear Mr, Russell
Enclosed is the revised grading plan reflecting the revised vertical alignments for
Interlachen Drive and Interlachen way on the above mentioned development. We have
reduced the number of lots to 31 units. T.he property owner of the driveway access that
is in question preferred not to have a home in his backyard and therefore is the reason
why we have not removed the unit below the NSP Utility line. The driveway as
proposed will be at a grade of 4.08% which is well below the grades of many driveways
in the vicinity. I anticipate the feedback from Clayton Eckles regarding the wetland
issues and the wetland mitigation plan will meet all your conditions of approval
pertaining to the wetland issues.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter and if you could over fax your consolidated
staff report to me at your earliest convenience at 784-600, it would be greatly
appreciated.
Please contact us if you have any questions or need further information.
Sincerely,

RE: Stillwater, Minnesota
Interlachen Hills 3rd Addition
Site Review
SEH No. A-STILL9601.00
Mr. Steve Russell
Director of Community Development
City of Stillwater
2]6 North 4th Street
Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Steve:
e
We have reviewed the site plan dated April 15 for Interlachen Hills 3rd Addition. This proposal is
for 32 dwelling units to be built along an extension of Interlachen Drive, an extension of Interlachen
Way and a new cul-de-sac off of Bayberry A venue. The concept for the street system is consistent
with the overall development of Interlachen Hills. Right-or-way for parts of the cul-de-sac and the
two extensions has been provided in past plats. It is also consistent with the concepts in the initial
proposals which were for townhomes in the early 1980s.
The 3rd Addition will generate slightly more than 300 trips per day. These trips will be distributed
in three different directions. We anticipate that between 100 and 120 vehicle trips per day will be
made via Interlachen Drive to Maryknoll Drive. This traffic will be split between Maryknoll Drive
to the north, Maryknoll Drive to the south and Interlachen Drive west to Northland Drive.
Approximately 120 to 150 trips per day will be made via Interlachen Way to the County Road 12
intersection. This traffic will then travel east or west on County Road 12. A small volume, perhaps
up to 10 vehicles per day, would use Deer Path to reach County Road 5. We also anticipate that
between 70 and 100 vehicles per day will use Bayberry Avenue to Maryknoll Drive, with most then
continuing north to County Road 12.
Based on those estimates, it is anticipated that the additional traffic on Maryknoll Drive will be
approximately 80 vehicles per day north of Bayberry Avenue, 60 vehicles per day between Bayberry
A venue and Interlachen Drive, and 60 vehicles per day between Interlachen Drive and Oak Ridge
Road.
e
We have also reviewed the potential for cut-through traffic which might attempt to use Interlachen
Way, Interlachen Drive, Maryknoll Drive and Oak Ridge Road as a new connection between County
Road 12 and County Road 5. Given the number of tums and the misdirection of some of the travel,
it is unlikely that this will replace Deer Path or any other route now used as a short-cut through the
neighborhood.

Finally, we estimate that some trip changes will be made as a result of the connection of Interlachen
Way to Interlachen Drive. Some traffic now on Interlachen Way Court or Interlachen Way may
choose to use Interlachen Way to Intedachen Drive, as opposed to Bayberry A venue, to reach
Maryknoll Drive. The net result of this change will be to reduce the volume of traffic on Maryknoll
Drive between Bayberry Avenue and Interlachen Drive by a few vehicles per day. It should have no
impact on Maryknoll Drive south of Interlachen Drive.
The 3rd Addition also requested vacation of a portion of platted Interlachen Drive east of proposed
Interlachen Way. Initially, Interlachen Drive was to connect to Crestwood Terrace to provide an
additional access to County Road 5 via Fair Meadows Road. This would permit additional traffic
from both Interlachen Hills and other portions of the Croixwood area to approach County Road 5
on Fair Meadows Road. While it could reduce traffic volumes slightly on other streets in
Croixwood, it would put some through traffic on Interlachen Drive, Crestwood Terrace and Fair
Meadows Road. More of a concern is the location of the intersection of Fair Meadows Road and
County Road 5, with respect to the turn on County Road 5 at Olive Street. We are continually
reminded of the close spacing of the Deer Path intersection to the curve and note that the Fair
Meadows intersection is even closer. Because of the concern for the operation of this intersection
and a potential of sending through traffic to Crestwood Terrace, we would concur in the vacation of
Interlachen Drive east of Intedachen Way so that there would not be a connection to Crestwood
Terrace. The downside of this vacation would primarily be forcing some additional traffic from
Interlachen Way out onto County Road 12. The number should be small.
e
Finally, we reviewed the general geometrics of the layout. They appear reasonable given the nature
of the topography of the area and the type of traffic anticipated to use the streets.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please feel free to call.
Sincerely,
Short Elliott Hendrickson Inc.

P~~NING APPLICATION REVIEW Fl,...IM
CASE NO. SUB/96-31
.Ianning Commission D(ite:.. May 13, 1996
Project Location: South of Interlachen Way
v
Comprehensive Plan District: One Family Residential
Zoning District: RA
Applicant's Name: Trail Head Development Corporation
Type of Application: Subdivision - 32 lots
Project Description: The request is for a 32-lot subdivision. The area was previously approved for a
39-lot subdivision in 1987, That approval has expired and a new 32-lot subdivision is now being
proposed.
Discussion: . Since the 1987 approval, the city has enacted wetland and slope density regulations
that have resulted in the preservation of the wetlands and illumination of sloped lands from
development.
Proposal: The proposal is a 32-lot single family subdivision. The minim lot size for single family is
10,000 square feet - 70 feet wide and 100 feet in depth. The proposal extends Pine Ridge Lane 300
_eet to a cui de sac. Eleven lots ranging in size from 11,830 to 21,300 square feet are located along
the cui de sac. Two of those lot have a 68 foot lot width (70 feet required).
A second area of development extends south from Interlachen Way to extend Interlachen Drive.
Large lots sloping down to Deerpath pond are located on the east side of the road (10,275 sq. ft. to
82,305 sq. ft.). The lot furthers to the south on the east side of Interlachen Way requires the location
the transmission lines and vacation of easement. This would have to be coordinated with NSP and
may result in the transmission lines being underground from Maryknoll to Crestwood Terrace. The
lots along Interlachen Drive and the west side of Interlachen Way are in the smaller 10,000 sq. ft to
11,000 sq. ft. lot size range. Four of the lots do not meet the lot size requirements of the district. The
subdivision will have to be reconfigure to meet the size requirements. This may result in a loss of
lots.
The proposed drainage plan maintains runoff on site as required. Runoff is piped to NURP ponds
then directed to the wetlands. This will control the rate of runoff and quality of water.
A portion of the wetland is being filled for Interlachen Way which will require mitigation approval of a
wetland replacement plan. The mitigation plan will have to be approved before
final plat approval.
a The construction of extended Interlachen Drive shows a 8 - 10 foot fill for the road. This construction
.will require a construction easement from adjacent property owners and be designed to provide
access to those lots. As proposed the raised road will effect the appearance and setting of the area.
The proposed plans show a sidewalk along Interlachen Drive and Interlachen Way. The sidewalk
(.~~~
should be extended to the next Intersecting street and east to Crestvv\;l~d Terrace.
r~~4.
If Interlachen Way can be vacated, a permanent end should be constructed at Crestwood Terrace
and a path connecting Crestwood Terrace to Interlachen Drive constructed.
Park dedication requirements will be provided for as land dedication or in lieu park fees based on the
city's policy and subdivision requirements.
e
Conditions of Approval:
1. The substantial lots shall be reconfigured to meet the RA lot size and area requirements.
2. All building sites shall be set back 50 feet from the designated wetland.
3. The sidewalk/trail shall be extended to Maryknoll and Bayberry Avenue and Crestwood Terrace.
4. A permanent end shall be constructed at the end of Crestwood Terrace if Interlachen Drive is
vacated.
5. The overhead utility lines along Interlachen Drive shall be relocated and underground from
Maryknoll to Crestwood Terrace.
6. The developer shall secure permission from landowners to the south of Interlachen Drive for
construction of the roadway on their property.
7. Access to lots south of Interlachen Drive shall not be inhibited by construction of Interlachen
Drive.
8. Land shall be dedicated or park dedication fee paid for to meet city park dedication
requirements.
9. A wetland mitigation plan shall be prepared and approved by the City Engineer for the loss of
wetland before final plat approval.
10. A grading/drainage plan including erosion control and tree protection measures shall be e
approved before final plat approval.
11. A 150 foot open space easement shall be recorded along Deerpath pond.
12. The existing pine trees along the west property line shall be protected and maintained.
13. A 25 foot natural buffer area shall be maintained around the wetland.
Recommendation: Approval as conditioned above.
Finding: As conditioned the subdivision is consistent with subdivision regulations, city development
standards and zoning requirements.
Attachments: Application and plans.

Case No. SV /96-30 A street vacation for all that portion of Interlachen
Drive abutting Lot 8 Preliminary Plat of Interlachen Hills 3rd Addition.
Trail Head Development Corp., applicant.
Case No. SUB/96-31 A preliminary plat approval for a 32-lot subdivision
on 15.22 acres located south of Bayberry Avenue Court in the RA-Single
Family Residential District. Trail Head Development Corp., applicant.
Jim Peterson of Trail Head Development and the company's surveyor and
civil engineer were present for the discussion. Mr. Peterson asked that the
requested street vacation be considered as a separate issue, subject to
approval of the preliminary plat.
Mr. Peterson briefly explained the proposed development and the history of
the site. He said it is the company's desire to accommodate and work with
neighboring property owners. The surveyor indicated the subdivision has
been created to meet city ordinances and with sensitivity to the slopes
and wetlands in the development 'area. The engineer explained measures
that have been taken to protect existing wetlands, as well as mitigation
measures that will be required as a condition of approv~1.
:f
Speaking in opposition were: Patricia and Arthur .GiII, 302 Darrell Court;
Cindy and David Green, 204 Crestwood Terrace; Tim and Signe Cowen, 202
Crestwood Terrace; Tyler Smith, owner of three Jots south of Interlachen;

address not given; Polly McGouflin, 143 Maryknoll; Bill Steen, 126
Maryknoll; Greg Mardaus, 1 41 Bayberry Court.
Concerns centered on environmental impact; drainage; the height of the
road at the rear of the development and the potential for runoff; the
additional traffic the development might generate on neighboring streets;
the potential impact on property values on existing homes; the potential
for assessments for streets/sidewalks against existing property owners.
Tyler Smith noted that the Wild pines Association had some very
restrictive covenants. He suggested that staff look at the covenants to
determine whether the proposed development might be in violation of

Ms. Calkins explained she would be cleaning up the area and adding
flowers. The concessions would be served from a solid green trailer with
8 x 1 2 awning; the trailer would be forklifted into the area.
Mr. Valsvik, seconded by Mrs. Bealka, moved approval as conditioned; all in

Case No. SUB/V96-29 A resubdivision into Parcel A, 50,000 square feet,
and Parcel B, 67,711 square feet, at 1375 Curve Crest Blvd. in the BP-I,
Business Park Industrial District. Kellison Company, applicant.
Present for the discussion were Jim Kellison and Doctors Stenberg and
Kauls. Mr. Kellison explained the requested resubdivision. Lot B would be
used for a dental clinic with three practices. Both of the lots meet the
size requirements and zoning ordinance. The owners would be willing to
put the treed area at the rear of lot B into a conservancy zone, he said.
Case No. V/96-34 A variance to the sign ordinanc~ for two signs at 1375
Curve Crest Blvd. in the BP-I, Business Park Industrial District. Kellison
Company, Applicant.
Present for the discussion were Jim Kellison and Doctors Stenberg and
Kauls.
The applicants are requesting a monument sign on Curve Crest and a sign
on the front of their building identifying the dental clinic tenants. Mr.
Fontaine questioned the need to identify the doctors' practices on a
building sign when their names will also be on the monument sign.
Doctors Stenberg and Kauls pointed out the tenants of the dental clinic are
not in business together and maintain separate practices.

some of the pre-existing covenants. Ms. Maybanks asked the developers to
consider a development of less density, and she urged the city not to
accept a fee in lieu of park dedication land.
When the discussion returned to the table, Mr. Valsvik suggested adding a
14th condition of approval -- that the city, developers and property
owners south of Interlachen get together to address key drainage issues.
Mr. Fontaine said he was uncomfortable with the density as proposed. Mr.
Hamlin said he thought there should be additional traffic studies.
Mr. Weidner moved to continue the request until the June meeting with the
direction that addition information be provided regarding drainage/
traffic/walkways/lot size, along with recommendations from staff as
how to proceed. Mr. Zoller seconded the motion. Motion passed 8-1, with
Mr. Valsvik voting no.

Mr. Steve Russell
Stillwater Planning Commission
RE: SUBDIVISION, Case No. SUB/96-31
Realizing the 3rd Addition was coming and I know this is part of growth
in Stillwater, but I do have a few concerSi
1) The proposal of 32 lots on 15.2 acres, does this include or exclude
the pond? Will that be left alone? It would be nice if it did not get
filled in. I am concerned if this is overcrowding?
2) When you add the surface area of the projected roads, where is the
water run-off going to go? If the plan is to let it go down the hill
to the DNR pond below Bayberry Ct., the most sensible solution would.
be to require the developer to install a larger culvert under County 12.
This work could be coordinated with the County. At present the existing
culvert is inadequate to carry both the water pumped from Lilly Lake
and water from rain run-offs. With additional run-off waters the level
would only rise farther onto existing homeowner properties. The
Planning Commission should not be shortsightedness in not planning for
future water problems.
3) Another cause of concern I .have is ground excavation for basements.
The developer should take great concern in protecting the soil from
being washed downhill into the pond. What used to be a lake many
years ago, now is'pond full of deposited silk (sand).
A,.
Thank you for hearing my concerns.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council ~i,/
FROM: Klayton Eckles, City Engineer
DATE: July 11, 1996
SUBJECT: Lily Lake Feasibility Study
DISCUSSION
e
In May, the City Council was presented with the Lily Lake Feasibility Study which discussed a
number of ways of addressing water quality problems in Lily Lake. Council directed staff to
pursue the northwest diversion and treatment system which would pump water from Brick Street
through a series of wetlands and eventually outlet in McKusick Lake. The next step in this
process is to pursue partnerships and grant programs for funding assistance for this project.
Council also directed staff to meet with the neighborhood group to discuss additional options for
addressing the water quality. On May 29th I met with Dick Moore, Dave Hahn, Del Peterson,
Gary Warren and Bill Fierke. The minutes from our meeting are attached. The main result of
the discussion is the conclusion that additional study is needed to formally select the best design
for the additional treatment systems. SEH has provided the attached proposal for professional
services for expanding the feasibility study. This second phase of the feasibility study would
include grant writing and an additional storm water diversion study for an estimated cost of
$9,630.00. (See attached proposal.)
It is anticipated that members of the lake shore that have participated in this issue will be present
at the meeting. Also attached for Council's review is a letter from Joel Schilling of SEH.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that council consider completing the second phase of the feasibility study for
Long Lake, with the associated costs being charged to the Storm Water Utility.

Dear Mr. Eckles:
Pursuant to your recent request, SEH Inc. is please to submit our proposal for professional services
for an expanded feasibility study for the Lily Lake storm water treatment report. As requested, SEH
will pursue grant or loan funding sources available in conjunction with the design and construction
of the alternative ultimately selected for implementation. SEH will investigate grant and loan
programs available from the State, County and special purpose government units for the City of
Stillwater's Lilly Lake project. This investigation will include the following:
e
1. Seek out contributing funding partners and/or cooperating agencies.
2. Determine the project and City's eligibility.
3. Determine grant or loan funding availability.
4. Review the allocation formula and the funding cycles.
5. Evaluate all necessary criteria for the grant or loan funding.
6. Complete the application process, including forms and narrative.
7. Meet with the City, residential groups and funding agency.
Because funding availability and grant cycles may not coincide with the effort, SEH can prepare the
applications or provide the necessary information to allow the City to make the actual application
in the future.
Additionally, SEH shall prepare a feasibility study of the various alternates discussed at our
May 29, 1996 meeting with the City and the Citizens Committee. These alternates are as described
in the meeting minutes dated June 3, 1996 and include the following:

1. The Northwest Diversion and Treatment System
Option A.) Use of a below ground sedimentation tank.
Option B.) Use of an above ground pool.
These alternatives will provide treatment and settlement of sediment from runoff
generated within the Pine Street drainageshed before it is discharged into Lily Lake.
Also included in this alternative is a storm sewer diversion on Lake Drive to the Willard
Street system, as well as modifications to the existing storm water pumping station,
Additionally, a new settling basin would be constructed at the intersection of c.R. 12 and
Brick Street.
2. The Churchill Street Diversion and Treatment System
This alternative involves redirecting the storm water generated from the Churchill Street
area.
3. The Brick Pond Treatment System
This alternative involves pumping excess water from Brick Pond between rainfall events
utilizing City storm sewers, Nelson Street and the Myrtle Street Ravine with discharge
to the river.
e
SEH will investigate the costs of installing a new forcemain and pumping station.
Fees for providing the above noted services shall be in accordance with our agreement for
engineering services dated April 20, 1983 and the man hours are estimated as follows:

Dear Klayton:
At their May 7, 1996 meeting, the City Council asked us to continue
working with you regarding the clean-up of Lily Lake.
On Wednesday, May 29, 1996, Mr. Dick Moore (SEH), Mr. Dave Hahn (SEH)
and the three of us met with you to determine the next steps to be
taken. These are the minutes of that meeting.
Three systems are needed to avoid Lily Lake having impaired or "no
swinuning condition" water quality. Engineering feasibility studies and
evaluations involving some additional expense are now needed to
formally select the best designs for the three systems, and also to
establish more accurate cost estimates for them:
1. Northwest Diversion and Treatment System. Two primary options for
removing the initial storm water runoff are a below ground
sedimentation tank and an above ground pool. A problem with the
below ground tank is on-going maintenance and removal of the sand, etc.,
which collects on the bottom of the tank. The above ground pool would
be easier to access for clean-out.
A problem also exists with the above ground pool, however, in that it
requires acquisition of private lakeshore property. Affected property
owners may perceive a property value loss which will increase the
acquisition cost.
e
It will be reconunended to the Council for their consideration that an
alternative solution be evaluated: Use the below ground tank with a
light weight yet structurally sound cover which could be removed (with
a back hoe) and allow for mechanical cleaning with a back hoe.
It will also be reconunended to the Council for their consideration that
alternatives in the piping of the drainage area be evaluated: ,Run the
existing sewer pipes from (1) the intersection of Olive and Brick
Streets and from (2) the intersection of Oak and Brick Streets directly
into the proposed sedimentation pond on Brick St. by the radio tower.
This would reduce the amount of water which would otherwise go through
the pumping station.
2. Churchill Street Diversion and Treatment System. The Churchill
Street drainage creates a major impact on Lily Lake because of the
significant erosion and resulting "filling in" of the lake, as well as
phosphorus loading from a subtantial drainage area. One suggestion has
been to redirect this storm water into Brick Pond. It will be
reconunended to the Council for their consideration that an alternative
be evaluated: Redirect the storm water through existing city storm
sewers, via Nelson Street and via the Myrtle Street ravine.
,41
3. Brick Pond Treatment System. This represents the largest potential
for reducing phosphorus loading into Lily Lake. Pumping excess water
from Brick Pond between rains appears to be the most economical method.
Dick Moore noted that residents on Brick Pond would like to raise the
level to improve their shoreline. A small "dam" could be used to
,
Page 2.
To Klayton Eckles
June 3, 1996
raise the level of Brick Pond above the normal level of Lily Lake. ~
Then, a pump and piping could be designed to pump Brick Yard Pond down ~
a few inches between rains. The space between the dam and the normal
(now raised) Brick Pond level would be designed to hold the first few
minutes of average rains. It will be recommended to the Council for
their consideration that the cost of installation and maintenance be
determined.
We discussed possible methods of paying for the cost of the three
systems through grants and the storm water utility fund. It will be
recommended to the Council for their consideration that the City and
Consulting engineers be asked to devote efforts in the immediate future
toward obtaining grants, particulary through the PCA. While grants
from other sources remain a possibility, these are often narrow in
scope and in time frame. After the most likely sources of grants are
explored and/or obtained, the remaining sources of funds for cleaning up
the lake will be the storm water utility fund, assessments, general
taxes, state aid funds or other sources.
We stand ready to assist you in reviewing alternatives, gathering
neighborhood and citizen input, as well as in any other way we might be
beneficial to the success of this project.

e
We are pleased that other issues and recommendations have been raised regarding the 1995 Lily
Lake water quality monitoring data. As you know, the Lily Lake Storm Water Treatment
Feasibility Study completed for the City by SEH used the 1995 lake data in the model analysis.
Additional water quality monitoring data on Lily Lake would be valuable, therefore we applaud the
volunteer efforts of interested lakeshore owners to continue to participate in Metropolitan Council's
CAMP program. In-flow (storm sewer) monitoring data is a costly item to acquire, however, we
do not believe the data will substantially alter our conclusion that Lily Lake is impacted by urban
runoff requiring control and treatment.
In conclusion, the SEH report reflects available 1995 data, other historical information, and most
importantly the lakeshore owners knowledge and expectations. Any additional data and input is
welcome.

CITY OF STILLWATER
MEMORANDUM

Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Klayton Eckles, City Engineer
't!/
DATE: Julyll,1996
SUBJECT: Feasibility Study of Temporary Sewer and Water Service to Stillwater Elementary
School, Engineering Job 96-25
Attached is a Feasibility Study from SEH, which discusses the cost estimate and technical
feasibility of constructing temporary utilities to serve this elementary school. The result of the
study is that the cost of providing these temporary services is estimated at $584,135.00. It is
technically feasible to construct the utilities, but from an engineering stand point it's highly
questionable whether the extreme cost of this. option makes economic sense. For comparison,
the cost of installing these temporary facilities approaches the cost of the permanent trunk system
which will be installed from Neal Avenue South to the Phase I Annexation Area.
The city has not yet begun the process of providing trunk facilities to this area. This process will
be involved and lengthy due to the many variables and issues which must be resolved. At this
time only a rough estimate can be given, but it appears that permanent utilities to this area should
be available by summer of 1998. The proposed temporary utilities would be available by the end
of the construction season 1997.
The proposed temporary utilities did not meet some of the cities standards and design practices.
The watermain is an extremely long dead end which will suffer stagnant water problems. The
sewer system will include a temporary lift station. This lift station will not have all of the back
up and safety systems which are normally included in a lift station. Also, it will discharge into
the Myrtle Street Lift Station system which is already extremely taxed. Thus the system is
technically feasible but highly undesirable. If this system is only in operation for six to nine
months these issues can be dealt with. Under no circumstances should these facilities be
considered permanent.
Since these facilities are only temporary it is assumed that the school site will participate in the
costs of providing trunk facilities to this area. At this time only estimates are available of these
costs. Our current estimate for sanitary sewer, water and storm sewer trunk facilities is between
$10,000 and $18,000 per acre.
In summary, this project is technically feasibility but from an engineering stand point it does not
appear to be cost effective based on the temporary nature and high cost of the project.
-
RECOMMENDATION
Council should review the attached report and determine if the city should proceed further with
this project. The next step would be to have additional discussions with the school and
determine if they desire to proceed with the project and if so the next step would be to prepare a
development agreement with the school district covering utilities, financing and other
development issues.

Temporary Sanitary Sewer and
Potable Water Service to
Stillwater Elementary School
Feasibility Study
Stillwater, Minnesota
The feasibility study to provide temporary Sanitary sewer and potable
water service to the new Stillwater elementary school involved the review
and analysis of the recently completed comprehensive plan, as well as the
projected water demand by the school. Because this facility is to be
constructed without any additional development during the temporary
period, special modifications to the results of the comprehensive plan
were taken into consideration for this study. It is the intention to follow
the directive of the comprehensive plan regarding infrastructure
improvements and that is included in the recommendation section of this
study. Additionally, the City of Stillwater staff was consulted in great
detail regarding their consideration and input into this report.
I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The proposed elementary school is to be located close to the Southeast
corner of the intersection of CSAH 12 and CSAH 15. Both potable water
service and sanitary sewer service to this facility would be extended west
from the existing infrastructure. Water service will consist of the
construction of a dead-end water main extension along the south right of
way on CSAH 12. The point of connection to the existing system
would occur at the intersection ofCSAH 12 and North land avenue.
At the request of the City staff the proposed water main would be a 12-
inch diameter ductile iron pipe and it would extend approximately 3700
lineal feet to the west. It would terminate adjacent to the school site with
separate services run to the school for potable water service and fire
protection. A bleeder hydrant would be reQuired at the terminus of the
system and it is recommended lhat the system be bled freQuently to
eliminate the possibility of the water becomin~ stainant in the dead-end

of this study. The School will be the only facility served by this system
and the fact that this is intended to be a temporary system utilized for a
maximum of only six months to one year. In discussion with the PCA,
the aspect of temporary service through this pump system was reviewed.
Due to the unique situation of this application, only a minimal pumping
facility and controls are considered. If additional service capacity or a
long period of time is considered, then substantial additional costs will be
incurred. Also since the sewer from the school would be a new system,
it is felt that no infiltration of storm water would be present.
Accordingly, the system was sized for the average daily flow rather than
the peak flow calculated to be 64 g.p.m. The system has a large static
head developed by the existing topography and as such an air relief valve
may have to be installed at the high point of the system. It is
recommended that additional wet well capacity at the Myrtle Street lift
station be added as a precaution during wet weather conditions. Details
of this will be provided during the final design phase. Manhole spacing
would be approximately every 350 lineal feet.
The routing for the ultimate sewer service to this area, as noted in the
approved comprehensive plan, was considered as part of this feasibility
study. Due to the magnitude of the amount of proposed sewer and the
time required to obtain the necessary easements and construction
approvals by reviewing agencies, it is not felt that construction for the
portion of the ultimate trunk sewer North of CSAH 12 is feasible for this
development.
Once the trunk sewer noted above is constructed the lift station would be
taken out of service and the force main abandoned in place. The system
would then connect directly to future trunk sewer. It is expected that this
facility would be built within one year of the completion of the school
construction.

III. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
In summary, SEH, Inc. finds that providing sanitary and water services
to the proposed elementary school located near the intersection of
CSAH'S 12 and 15 is feasible and should be constructed with
consideration of future development as outlined in the approved
comprehensive plan. Further consideration should be made of the
temporary nature of the proposed service and the short time frame that
this project will encompass.
Accordingly, the design criteria for the lift station should be adjusted to
the average daily flow rather than the peak wet weather flow. No
additional development should be allowed to connect to this system until
the future trunk sewer is constructed and the lift station is removed from
service. The potable water and fire protection systems should be
constructed, as noted in the executive summary, with particular
consideration to maintenance and regular flushing of the water main to
prevent stagnation of the water. It would be more desirable to provide a
looped system however. All of the proposed construction is subject to
permit approval by the necessary regulatory agencies.

RE:
Stillwater, Minnesota
A vailable Fire Flow to Proposed School Site
SEH No. A-STILL9613.oo
The water distribution system modeling for the proposed school site has been completed. This
modeling was done to analyze the fire flow available to a proposed school site. This site is located
in the southeast corner of County State-Aid Highways (CSAH) 12 and 15. A 3,700 linear foot, 12"
water main is proposed to extend to this site along CSAH 12 from the intersection of Northland
Avenue and CSAH 12. The City of Stillwater Comprehensive Plan, Appendix C (Water Main
Study) was used for this modeling. The Comprehensive Plan model was based on full development.
Some down-sizing of the model was required for this analysis to match the current and short term
future conditions. The following criteria was used.
Well Number
Pumpin~ Rate (~pm)

1,111
1,039
1,000
.
An existing elevated storage of 500,000 gallons
Water tank initial condition at half full
Well pumps at capacity
.
.
The results were obtained using the Cybernet Water Distribution System software. Two system wide
demand conditions were analyzed. The first fire flow analysis was ran with a future system wide
maximum day demand of 3,000 gpm (73% of full development demand). The second fire flow
analysis was ran with a current (1996) system wide maximum day demand of 1,000 gpm (24% of
full development demand) the results for the future and current are as follows:

Fire Flow Results During Future System Demands
Available fire flows with a constant withdrawal point pressure at the school were calculated. Both
were set with a 20 psi residual pressure within the remaining distribution system,

An extended period simulation (BPS) was also ran with a constant 650 gpm fire flow demand at the
school site. The withdrawal point pressure was allowed to vary. A three hour EPS was ran with the
following results:
Time Fire Flow Withdrawal Point
!hrsJ WnW Residual Pressure (psi)
0.0 650 56
1.0 650 55
2.0 650 54
3.0 650 53
Fire Flow Results During Current Syst!!m Demands (1996)
The available fire flow with a constant withdrawal point pressure at the school was calculated. The
remaining system residual pressure were set at 20 psi.

The City distribution system currently meets the stated required fire flow of 650 gpm at 60 psi
residual withdrawal point pressure. This condition cannot be guaranteed as demand increases due
to further development. A booster pump will be required in the future.

DATE:

SUBJECT:
REVIEW OF REQUEST FOR LIQUOR LICENSE
IN MARKET PLACE AREA
The Planning Commission reviewed the request from John Nelson, Jr., New City Commercial
Properties, Inc., to include a referendum on the November ballot for three (3) additional liquor
licenses for the Market Place Area.
The Planning Commission felt that additional liquor servicing establishments in the Market
Square Area were not needed and that the downtown should remain the center for that type of
e activity.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
Deny request for liquor referendum.
e
MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning Commission
FR: Steve Russell, Community Development Director f-./
DA: July 2, 1996
RE: REFERRAL FROM CITY COUNCIL REGARDING LIQUOR LICENSES IN
MARKET SQUARE AREA
The City Council received a request from the owners of land in the areas of the Market
Square project for a liquor license. In order for a liquor license to be granted, it would
have to be put on the November ballot and approved by the voters.
If additional liquor licenses were available, it is likely restaurants serving liquor would
find the area around CUBrrarget a good location. At this time, other similar uses in the
area include the St. Croix Club and Applebees. Restaurant uses are allowed in the
Business Park Commercial, BP-C zone district.
Recommendation:
Review of liquor license request with no comment other than restaurant uses were
liquor licenses are allowed in the area.

Re: Stillwater Marketplace/On Sale Liquor License
Dear Mayor Kimble and Councilmembers,
New City Commercial Properties, Inc. is marketing the excess land around the Cub and
Target Stores in Stillwater, known as Stillwater Marketplace. They have experienced interest
from firms, both local and national, who would like to develop a full service sit down
restaurant serving liquor on subject land, however, when they investigate the unavailability
of "on sale" liquor licenses in Stillwater, they move on.
e
One example of this is Applebees, which as you know built a new restaurant facility on the
south side of Highway 36 in Oak Park Heights. We had a verbal agreement with them at
roughly the same land price they ended up paying. Another lost sale was for a four acre
tract to a national cinema group. They wanted to develop a large cinema facility, however,
their economics required them to also develop 9r sell land to accommodate a full service
sit down restaurant serving liquor. When a liquor license wasn't available to them, they
withdrew their interest. Stillwater is missing potential tax base income and the owners, are
missing land sales.
Through this letter, Dayton Hudson Corporation and Supervalu Holdings, as land owners,
request you include on your November 1996 ballot, a referendum allowing the city to issue
up to three on sale liquor licenses for the Stillwater Marketplace project.
We will greatly appreciate your consideration.
Sincerely,

RE:
Ordinance Regulating Pawn Shops
At a recent conference. the City Clerk was advised that pawn shops and the regulation of pawn shops
have become increasingly important matters of local concern. It was pointed out that the time to enact
regulations regarding pawn shops is not when an application for a pawn shop pennit is pending. but when
time can be taken to adequately study the regulation of these businesses to provide for limits that are. not,
only enforceable, but that recognize legally protected individual and property rights.
If the Council would consider a first reading at Tuesday's meeting, a draft could then be submitted for
consideration and review by both the Planning Commission and the City CouDcil.

Klayton Eckles, City Engineer \L.. t::/
FROM:
DATE: July 11, 1996
SUBJECT: Repair of Storm Water Manhole at the top of Main Street Steps
DISCUSSION
At the above referenced location there is an existing storm water manhole that is badly needing
repairs. The manhole is approximately 20 feet deep, but 18 feet of this manhole is exposed due
to erosion down the slope. The erosion has also exposed the pipe which flows into the manhole
and this pipe is actually suspended about 10 feet above the ground. This structure needs to be
repaired immediately as the erosion is threatening the Broadway Street sidewalk and railing.
Also, the manhole is subject to collapse in its current configuration.
Staffhas obtained quotes from two contractors for repairing this situation as shown below:
Jay Brothers Inc.
George Siegfried Construction Co.
$18,300
$18,452
Jay Brothers has the low quote for this project and has done quality work for the city in the past.
The cost of completing this repair can be charged against the City Storm Water Utility.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends council accept the quote from Jay Brothers for the completion of the repair of
the manhole at the top of the Main Street stairs for a lump sum of $18,300.

LeagU8 0/ Minnesota Cities
Cities promoting e:ccenence
July 2, 1996
Dear Mayor Kimble and Members of the Stillwater City Council;
By now, you are probably aware of the rights of way issue facing cities in Minnesota. US
West's challenge to local management of the public rights of way is one of the most critical
issues cities have faced in years. It was a topic of considerable discussion at the Annual
Conference, where member cities supported the League Board of Directors decision to move
forward with an aggressive work program and financing plan to counter this challenge. We need
your city to make a special payment to this fund and help put the work plan into action.
The work plan developed by the Rights of Way Task Force and approved by the Board could
cost $325,000 or more. This assumes that a large portion of the work plan will be coordinated
by and implemented through League staff. The Board has agreed to allocate $125,000 from the
current League budget for the work plan and is asking member cities to voluntarily pay
$200,000.
e
Based on your city's 1995-96 League dues, your suggested minimum payment is $1,032.
Please consider this request in July and submit your payment by August 15, 1996 if at all
possible. If each city meets their minimum payment, the $200,000 target is reachable. However,
because it is unlikely that all cities will join this voluntary effort, we encourage members to
allocate more if this initiative is of particular importance to them.
Two important points should be made: First, this is a voluntary payment. As a member of the
League of Minnesota Cities, you are not required to take part in this effort. However, if total city
payments fall significantly short of the $200,000 goal, the League will not be able to fully
undertake the work plan. Second, your voluntary payment should not be confused with your
League membership dues which will be billed at the beginning of September.
The Board of Directors and I understand that this issue must be weighed against the priorities in
your city. However, we believe that the prospect of losing local control of public property
warrants this extraordinary effort. This is a complicated issue, please consider it carefully.
Enclosed is a brief information sheet to help you in your deliberations. If you have any
questions, contact me at (218) 643-1431, League Executive Director Jim Miller at (612) 280-
1205 or (800) 925-1122, or any member of the Board of Directors.

ComInon questions about
public rights of way
1.-g". of Minnuota Citiu
Cifiu promoting tue.l/.nc.
Q Why did local management of public
rights of way become such an issue?
A-In February, US West challenged a
.L-\.R.edwood Falls ordinance that set standards
for installing fiber optic cable in the public right
of way. The ordinance charges a small per foot
fee, requires the cable to be encased in concrete
conduit, or, if that isn't done, limits the city's
liability in case the cable is damaged. US West
asked the Minnesota Public Utilities
Commission (PUC) to take over jurisdiction of
city rights of way, and set aside any local
regulations. Then, US West sued the city of
Redwood Falls in District Court. US West asked
the court to prevent the city from enforcing the
ordinance, and allow them to lay their fiber optic'
cable pending resolution of the matter before the
PUC.
QDidn't the District Court rule in favor of
Redwood Falls?
A -Yes. The League intervened on behalf of
.L-\.R.edwood Falls early in the proceedings and
hired outside legal counsel with expertise in
utility law. Those efforts paid off when a Fifth
District Court Judge dismissed the lawsuit
brought by US West. In the order dismissing the
suit, the judge stated essentially that the state law
creating the PUC authorized it to regulate
telephone service providers but did not take
away cities' right to impose reasonable
regulations and to charge a reasonable franchise
fee for the use of their streets and services. The
judge wrote "...The public utility commission
regulates telephone companies, not cities."
-
QDoesn't that settle things?
ANot necessarily. The District Court ruling
probably will have little bearing on the PUC
ruling, which is expected later this summer. US
West may also appeal the District Court ruling.
Regardless of what happens in these two arenas,
the Legislature will be looking at this issue when
the 1997 session begins in January.
Q Why is this such an important issue?
A -The implications of this case are enormous.
~s deregulation and competition among
telecommunication and utility providers
continues, there will be more and more demand
for access to the ground under city streets. All
kinds of businesses and utilities make use of that
scarce space - telephone companies, cable
television companies, gas companies, power
companies - and so on. If cities are not allowed
to manage the use of the right of way, streets
could be torn up regularly and underground
facilities could become a tangled maze. Imagine
your city completing a major repaving project,
only to have the street torn up by a utility
looking to install lines. Imagine the phone calls
to city hall from irate residents if streets are
blocked off two or three times a year. Imagine
your frustration when it becomes obvious that
local taxpayers are being forced to subsidize
private industry and pay higher taxes to build
and maintain city streets.

QSo what is the League of Minnesota
Cities doing?
AAS the magnitude of this issue became
clear, the League Board of Directors
appointed a Rights of Way Task Force to look at
what should be done. Through the course of
several meetings, the Task Force developed a
work program that involves legal, legislative,
and public information strategies to protect
cities' role in managing the public right of way.
The Task Force estimates that full
implementation of the work program could cost
as much as $325,000. The Board has agreed to
finance this work program by allocating
$125,000 from the current League budget and
asking member cities to voluntarily allocate
$200,000.
e
Q$200, 000 is a lot of money, What is the
League going to do with all of that?
A - The work plan includes legal
~epresentation, work with legislative
leaders, and an extensive statewide public
information campaign. While League staff will
take on the bulk of this work, it's likely that
outside assistance will be needed.
QHOW did you decide how much you want
our city to pay?
^ Your suggested payment is based on a
..l\..percentage of your city's 1995-96 League
dues.
QDO we have to pay? How will the payment
affect our dues?
ANO city if required to pay. This is strictly a
voluntary payment. Also, it's entirely
separate from the League dues statement your
city will receive in September.
-
Q What if our city decides not to pay?
A - That's your choice. As a member of the
.L-\...League of Minnesota Cities, you are not
required to take part in this effort. However, if
total city payments fall significantly short of the
$200,000 goal, the League will not be able to
fully undertake the work plan.
Q Can our city pay more?
ACertainly. In fact, we encourage members
to allocate more to this fund if this initiative
is of particular importance to them. If all
member cities meet their minimum payment, the
$200,000 target is reachable - but it's unlikely
that every city will join this voluntary effort.
QAfter we pay, how can we stay up to date
on the issue?
AWe will keep you informed of any
developments through articles in Cities
Bulletin, direct mailings, and broadcast faxes,
Q Clearly, our payment is only part of the
solution. What else can we do?
A - The best thing city officials can do is stay
J-\..informed, and pass that information along to
as many others as possible. Discuss rights of
way with your local editors and reporters; make
local control a campaign issue for your House
and Senate candidates; talk to your local
Chamber of Commerce about the business
impact of torn-up streets; let taxpayers know
you're working to protect their investment in
streets.
QI'm still confused. Who should I call?
A - If you have more questions, please contact
~eague Executive Director Jim Miller at
(612) 280-1205 or (800) 925-1122, or any
member of the Board of Directors.

e
City Council,
We noticed in the paper regarding the last city council meeting, that under discussion was
the water surface use of Long Lake. We are assuming this concerns usage of motors on
the lake and maintaining the classification as a recreational lake. We would like to go on
record as favoring the classification as a recreational lake and continuation of motor use
on the lake,
Stillwater lacks good wholesome fun for families and it's youth. My four boys have had
many hours, with family and friends, enjoying the water activities the lake has to offer,
motor and non motor. We have put our own limits on the time the boat is run, in
consideration of people who may not like bo~ts.
Has a lake property owner, we would hope there is a compromise which makes everyone
happy. Thank you,
e

DISC GOLF RULES for RECREATIONAL PLAY
e
GENERAL.......................Disc Golf is played like ball golf using a flying
disc. One point is counted each time the disc is thrown and when a
penalty is incurred. The object is to acquire the lowest score. (Without
cheating.)
TEE THROWS.................Tee throws must be completed within or behind
the designated tee area. (*DON'T THROW TILL THE PLAYERS IN FRONT
OF YOU ARE OUT OF RANGE.)
LlE...................................The spot where the previous throw landed,
mark with a mini disc or turn over the thrown disc, directly towards the
hole or dogleg.
THROWING ORDER.........After teeing-off, the player whose disc is
farthest from the hole always throws first. The player with the least
amount of throws on the previous hole is the first to tee-off on the next
hole.
FAIRWAY THROWS..........Fairway throws must be made with the foot
closest to the hole on the lie. The other foot may be no closer to the hole
than the lie. A run-up and normal follow-through, after release, is
allowed.
DOG LEG.........................A dog leg is one or more designated trees or
poles in the fairway that must be passed AS INDICATED BY ARROWS.
Until the dog leg is passed, the closest foot to the dog leg must be on the
lie when the disc is released.
e
COMPLETION OF HOLE...A disc that comes to rest in the Disc Pole Hole@
basket or chains constitutes successful completion of that hole.
UNPLAYABLE LlE............Any disc that comes to rest above the ground is
considered an unplayable lie. The disc must be thrown from the new lie
on the ground, directly underneath the unplayable lie. (RELOCATE TO
AVOID DAMAGE TO VEGETATION.)
OUT OF BOUNDS............lf O.B. is visible between the disc and O.B. line.
A throw that lands out of bounds, must be played from a point 3' in bounds
from where the disc went out of bounds. Permanent water hazards and
public roads are always out of bounds.
PENALTIES..................... RECREATIONAL PLAYERS WILL NOT BE
PENALIZED FOR RULE INFRACTIONS. Other players will keep you
honest.
e
COURSE COURTESY.......Please pick up trash, help new players play by
the rules. YOU are the one that makes it work. By YOUR example, Disc
Golf will change YOUR life and THEIRS too. Remember the most
important rule: THE MOST FUN WINS. TEE OFF & FLY FREELY.

SPORT OF THE FUTURE
e
If you don't know what disc golf is, it's just like ball golf only you
use a frisbee. Eighteen elevat.!3d metal baskets catch the frisbees
much like holes in the ground catch golf balls. The goal is the same, to
complete the course in the fewest number of shots. Most importantly
the challenge is the same because golf is golf, no matter what shape
the tools. Missing short putts still makes you feel fabulous.
Disc golf encourages top mental and physical conditioning but
can be played by anyone. Players merely match their pace to their
capabilities to pursue fun and fitness for their lifetime. Disc golf can be
played alone allowing great flexibility in scheduling. The courses are
short enough that a round can be played in an hour. The basic
requirement for playing disc golf is remarkably simple. All you need is
a golf disc that can be purchased for less than ten dollars and used
over and over again.
Disc golf is easy to learn. Most people understand the principles
of ball golf and these carry over into disc golf. Beginners invariably
find throwing a Frisbee much easier to pick up than striking a golf ball.
Entire families can play together! Kids love things that fly and modern
e golf discs are high tech aerodynamic marvels.
Over the last decade millions of people have joined the fitness
boom; jogging in circles, riding bicycles that go nowhere, lifting
weights and attending deafening aerobics classes. Few people can put
themselves through this kind of torture for very long. Experts predict
that in the next decade people will turn to fitness sports like disc golf
that are fun and good for you at the same time.
One important thing that ball and disc golf have in common is that
they are played in beautiful settings. Getting people out of the high
stress environment of the business world and in contact with nature is
critical to good health. The high incidence of stress related illnesses is
one of America's greatest health challenges and contributes to high
medical insurance rates. A healthy body is essential to a healthy mind
and disc golf promotes both.
With so much going for DISC GOLF is:

WHY SIGNS?
e
Disc Golf Courses need signs like a road needs signs. The first time you want to
drive from point A to point B, you use a map and street signs to find your way.
Disc Golf is the same. In fact the first time you see a Disc Pole Hole@ you need
an explanation of what it is, a chicken barbecue or what,? A sign that says it's a
Disc Golf Course is a minimum requirement.
What is Disc Golf? A sign has rules and explains the game. Where
do you start? A sign says Front Nine, Back Nine, or a Tee sign.
Tee #1 shows a map to hole #1 and it tells the distance and par for
a beginner.
Hole #1 sign indicates the direction to Tee #2.
The signs also point out the preferred flight path, hazards, out of
bounds, roadways, mandatories, etc.
Remember, signs are for the beginners. Once you drive from point A to point B,
you no longer need a map or street sign except as a reminder. On a roadway
you may get lucky and find point B without a map, but more than likely you will
become frustrated, go home and never try again. Remember, every hole must
have at least one tee sign and every Disc Golf Course a rules sign. Without signs
the person who designed the course and his friends will be the only players.
e
Circa 1975, LA County Park and Recreation Director Seymour Greeben wanted
signs that were compatible with other park usage. They needed to have a long
life, not easily damaged by vandals, and briefly give the required information.
We agreed and asked the park department to construct such a sign. They did
and we copied it and put it into production. The frame and pipe are hot dipped
galvanized, welded steel construction. The sign is steel with a baked enamel
finish and protected by a 3M vinyl sealer that will last for years. The decals used
on the signs are made of the same vinyl which is the same material used to
darken the windows of your car or home. We also seal the edges with 3M edge
sealer, which is more than they do when tinting windows. Truly a lifetime sign as
far as the elements are concerned.
Remember, signs must be constructed to last a lifetime. Galvanized welded
steel is the most acceptable treatment to park departments. They must be
vandal re.sistant and 3M vinyl is the best material we can find in the industry.
We hear some park departments say, "Your signs cost too much, we can build
them cheaper out of wood". Remember, LA County Park and Recreation
Department designed our signs. You may ask why not wood? If wood signs are
so economical, why do we use steel signs on our roadways and in our parks?

PAR FOR THE COURSE
Disc golf is a great way to revitalize vandalized and underutilized parks.
By Sue Schmid
~~
..~
It's hard to believe that throw-
ing a disc around a course lined
with baskets would draw
throngs of people to parks every-
where, but when you consider the
game has many similarities to the
overwhelmingly popular sport of
golf, maybe it's not so unusual.
The goal of the sport called disc
golf is the same as that of regular
golf: to complete the course in the
fewest number of throws (cal1ed
"strokes" by aficionados) as possi-
ble. To play, users toss a specially
made golf disc (much like a
Frisbee"') into elevated metal bas-
I~;' kets suspended from chains
designed to help knock the discs
in. Players compete on either a
nine- or 18-basket course. ,
Madison's Currently there are more than
Elver Park 400 courses scattered around the
disc golf country, with lllinois and Indiana
course is the current disc golf hot spots.
used by "Once you put a course In, it
about 500 becomes so popular that adjoining
people on areas start popping them up," says
weekends Don (Duster) Hoffman of Blue
and 100 Mounds, WIS., the midwest regional
people on coordinator of the Professional
weekdays.. Disc Golf Association (pDGA). "It's
_I
spread more by word~f-mouth
than anything." . .
A majority of the courses are
located In city, county or state
parks. A few are also located on col-
lege campuses and military bases,
and some are privately owned and
operated. Most courses are free,
although some are pay-for-play,
charging $1 to $2 either for admis-
sion or the rental of a disc.
Baton Rouge, La, Is one city that
has found disc golf profitable. The
park system has two 18-b.~sket
courses, both of which are fn.-e to
the public, but both of which s.'1are
pro shop space with adjoining ten-
nis centers.
"The tennis pro shop has given
us part of their' area and we seil
discs, bags and T-shirts from there, '
says Debbie Spica, recreation sP''''
cialist with the Baton Rouge Recre-
ation Commission. "We're doing
great with that. We easily make a lot
more money than It takes to run
both of the courses."
Disc sales are particularly strong .
- Spica orders 300 to 350 discs
every two to three weeks to keep
up with demand. "No sports shops
push disc golf sales, so we '
.pretty much have a monop-
olyon it," she says.
Besides being popular
and profitable, disc golf Is
also an Ideal way to develop
parks that are underutilized
and prone to vandalism.
"A lot of times you'll have
vandalism or the undesir-
ables will hang around,"
Hoffman says. "One of our
best calling cards is that you
can put a disc golf course in
and with the sheer numbers
of people who start playing
and frequenting the park,
these people kind of find
other places to do their
thing. That's been one of the
great testimonIals we've got-
ten from parks departments
around the country."
1bat was the case at Elver
Park in MadIson, Wis., where
.
'22 "llmIC '6\lS1te5 5eplember \995
Hofinan Is the course pro, a volun-
teer position. Vandals used to steal
signs from the course, but now that
the course has become more popu-
lar, Hoffman says th~ number of
people walking through has elimi-
nated the vandals.
Hoffman says the current cost of a
course ranges from $10,500 to
$12,000 for an IS-hole course and
from $5,000 to $6,200 for a nine-hole
course.
"It's very cost-effective for parks
departments," he says.
Spica says the key to putting up
a disc golf course is to get local
clubs Involved.
"They're the ones that came to
us. We had two or three individu-
als who really took the load off of
US by saying that if you give us a
course, we'l1 help keep It up. They
program for us, so you don't have
to worry about that extra staff. All
we have to do Is keep the grass
cut and the trees trimmed," she
5.1YS.
The PDGA is currently working
on guidelines for course design and
has set up a design committee that
wll1 meet at the upcoming world
cham~lonshlps.
"W'.i3.t we're trying to do is design
courses with the recreational golfer
In mind that will be less than 4,000
feet in total length," says Hoffman,
who en'!lsions two or three tee
placem~nts on the same course,
with var.ylng course lengths for
recreatio;1al, amateur and profes-
sional pla}ws.
"In the past, whoever went to
the park cepartment and pitched
them on the Idea of putting a
course In designed the course,"
says Hoffman. "What happens Is
that the person who pitches the
course Is a professional player and
too often, all he or she can see is a
6,~or 1,OOO-toot. course.
"That's not the way to go for
recreational entities, though," Hoff-
man says. "What we've realized Is
that If you put In a shorter course,
It's more popular.".

New game growing ii-. popularity
There's a new game in town and
it's growing ia popularity to the
,point where you just might have to
take a number and wait your turn lf
you want to play.
Call it frizbee 'throwing at
targets. a da)' in the woods with the
family or call it Duc Golf like
most, but before long you'll be
wanting to call ahead for reserva-
tions as thc game has taken oU like
nonc' would ha ve believed a few
short years ago.
It's a game for ages five to 75, a
Jame for groups or one you can
play by yourself. You don't have to
have more than a few dollars and
you don't have to have special in-
struction. If you can throw a
frizbce (disc), then all you have to
do is play.
Most people in the area may
have heard about it'and it seems as
though many have given the game
a try. In fact. officials at Madeline
Bertrand Park (on the border of
Michigan and Indiana) have in-'
formed The Niles Daily Star that
more than 1800 people bave played
disc golf just in tbe month of Ma)'.
Consider if )'ou will what that
means, May was often cold, often
rainy and simply put - often
miserable weatherwise. Now con-
sider this - June, July and August
are the most active months of the
year for recreation. To me, it
sounds as though this disc golf
course will be one busy place in the
upcoming months.
When Berrien County officials
first considered making a "Frisbee
Go!f" course on their half of the
park grounds, little was known
about the gilme. Having been
Terry
Covington
Sport.J E&UtDr
assigned to cover those particular
meetings lam pleased to announce
our commissioners appear to have
made the right choice. They knew
little about the game, but took a
chance. In their final report for
1983 it was stated that the game
had been around since the 1960's,
but that because it was such a
"young sport" little "demand" in-
formation was available. 'Someone
on that commission deserves a pat
on the back. .
Enough of those wbo made it
work. how do you go about playing
the game? Well, all you really have
to do is get up and go. Frizbees or .
discs, are available for sale at the
site for a cost of $8.50. This is usual-
ly for those very serious about the
game. Any frizbee will do for fun.
It's best if you go prepared for a
walk in the woods however, both up
and down hills. The course is 18
holes long like golf, but I'm sure
there are no rules that say one has
to play the whole course. A fee of $1 -
is collected per person for use on a
daily basis, meaning you can play
as often as you like:
Now: don't. expect your, usual
quiet walk in the woods. The park
has trails for that. What you will
find is well groomed trails wide
enough to throw a Irizbee. but not
so wide that you won't be looking
through some weeds for that disc
shaped object. One hint here is that
a smart player uses a brIght col-
ored frizbee just in case.
The course u plainly marked
with a chart at each starting point
telling you how many shots it would
take a good player to make aDd the
direction which leads to the disc
stand or hole. You simply throw the
frizbee down the path until you get
to the standing basket, at which
time you attempt to throw your
disc in the basket. Of course, the
fewest attempts you bave at the
end of each hole. the better your
score. but missing is half the fun.
Youngsters may have to take a few
more throws because of the
distance, but very often they can
throw better than the parents,
The hardest thing I found about
the game is getting to the park
itself. Few still. seem to know
where it is. The easiest way frOIll
downtown Niles would be to take
US 31 south towards the stateline.
then tJrn right on Stateline Road.
It may look as though you are
heading nowhere for about a mile,
but suddenly the park appears on
the right hand side of the road. \
The best thing about this game is
simply that everyone can play. You
don't have to be an athlete. you
don't need special shoes, gloves,
protective padding or clothing. All
you need is a frizbee. to be able to
wal~ and to be able to throw. With
the number of people becomming
interested in the sport however.
you might need a little patience
and common courtesy. It's the one
sport I take my whole fal;llily to en-
joy - hope to see yours there soon.

DISC GOLF: Emerging Sport Of The 90's
e Cross the great game of golf with
one of America's favorite play-
things-the flying disc, and you get
the emerging sport of disc goli. The
concept may sound silly at first, but
after comparing the pleasures and
benefits of disc golf with those of ball
golf and other recreation activitie~,
the game is not so easy to dismiss,
Disc golf is analogous to ball golf in
thaI players complete a round of 18
holes in the fewest number of strokes
- or throws - as possible. Both kinds
of golf have similar terminology, eti-
quette, and rules of play. In disc golf,
however, a disc replace~ the ball,
one's arm and wrist replace the club,
and the target is a disc-catching
device called the Pole-Hole, Disc golf
holes are begun from a teeing area,
and successive shols are played from
where preceeding shots come to
rest. The holes are completed when
the tossed disc comes to rest in the
Pole-Hole's chains or basket.
.. Disc Golf: The ageless game
.. Disc golf has been called the "age-
less game" because il is a sport that
appeals 10 all age groups, During tlw
past year, disc golf hds been enjoyed
by South Carolinian's of dll ages from

of passive and active recreation

DISC GOLF PROJECT
CONDON PARK, GRASS VALLEY, CALIFORNIA
e
The Rotary Club of Grass Valley selected its 1991-1992 club project to address the need for
public recreation in the City of Grass Valley and Nevada County. Recreation needs for our
community are increasingly difficult to meet with population demands and dwindling public
funding sources.
Our Club considered the more traditional activities, such as baseball/soccer fields and
tennis courtS; but these facilities require extensive land areas and earth moving equipment
beyond our Club's resources. In our research, we discovered the game of disc golf and
found it well suited to our community and our Club's human resources.
Disc golf is played with a disc similar to a "Frisbee" by sailing the disc into pole mounted
metal baskets. The rules are similar to conventional golf. The advantages to disc golf are:
the course is environmentally sensitive to the area in which it is constructed and it does not
require tree or extensive undergrowth removal nor earth movement; it does not require
significant capital outlay; it is an "ageless game "that can be played by everyone from the
very young to the very old; it is simple and requires only minimal ongoing maintenance.
All of these are attractive not only to the participants, but to those who must maintain and.
operate the facilities.
.
The project has been a wonderful example of Rotary's ability, through its community
leader membership, to bring many diverse agencies together to focus on a project.
We fIrSt met with the City Council of the City of Grass Valley and presented our project;
they endorsed the idea and were willing to allocate over 20 acres of their existing park area
that was environmentally sensitive. This game fit into their criteria perfectly. We
presented the project next to the Grass Valley Recreation Commission which approved the
design and was designated to oversee the project. We then met with the Nevada County
Recreation Commission and requested they fund the equipment for the project from local
development mitigation fees generated specifically for recreation purposes. The
Commission agreed and the County Board of Supervisors endorsed the recommendation.
We were then able to proceed \vith administration and on-site construction by the Grass
Valley Rotary Club on land contributed by the City of Grass Valley with the capit:ll to
purchase the equipment provided by the County of Nevada. A true public/private
pmnership.
The project has been positively received by our community. We have had our Rotarians on
the local radio station explaining the project and encouraging public participation. The
local paper has been very complimentary in its praise and reporting. We attach for your
review newspaper articles published during the processing of the approval of the project
which drew significant attention to Rotary's participation.
A local survey company volunteered to survey and map the course to provide easy
directions. The project is also being brought to our youth through a program instituted by
Ro~ary h~ving ~agle ~couts taught the game by a professional and these Scouts, to support
their ment proJects. WIll go to local schools and te~ch others the fundamentals of the g::une.

We installed a special handicap area on the course that will be wheel-chair accessible to
provide for that sector of our community. The entire course) including this special area, is
open to the public without char~~.
We believe this project can be readily emulated by other clubs. The course requires low
capital outlay related to the benefIts. The majority of the work is on-site clearing,
installation of the facilities and administration) which can be readily done by Rotary Club
membership.
In our project) our Rotarians provided over 3)000 man-hours of work on the site to
complete the project. The developer of the game has be~n to contact other Rotary Clubs
to interest them In this project and we are providing copies of this presentation booklet co
clubs on request. If a Rocary Club is interested in pursuing a similar project, copies of this
information booklet can. be received from Edward B. Sylvester, 101 Providence Mine
Road, Suite 202, Nevada City, CA 95959.
Our Club, to provide for the funding outside of that furnished by public agencies, held a
Casino Night which resulted in sufficient monies to provide for areas of capital outlay not
otherwise funded.
The majority of the work fits in very well with most Rotary Clubs. The game can be
adapted to virtually every type of terrain and is even played in the snow during the winter.
The course has been dedicated to the City of Grass Valley and a professional tourname'nt
and an amateur tournament have already been held. Approximately 200 people a day are
using the course. There has been preliminary discussions about holding the World
Championships here within the next two years. This would be extremely beneficial to our
tourist-oriented community and bring needed revenues to the community.
The development of this community facility has brought our Club, our governments, and
the public together and generated a wann spirit of cooperation among all involved.

ANNOUNCING THE FORMATION OF THE
RECREATIONAL PLAYERS DIVISION OF THE DGA
RDGATM
June 1995
Dear friends of Disc Golf:
I realize it has been some time since we have had a serious conversation and
hope this one doesn't shock you too badly. I believe Disc Golf is going
backwards, course designers are designing more and more courses that cater
only to the pro. Little regard is being given to safety, and disc manufacturers
continue to produce faster models that will soon break the sonic barrier. Very
few courses have been designed that cater to recreational play, our :ife blood.
e
Membership in the Professional Disc Golf Association (P.D.G.A.), ,.'hile showing
signs of increasing, is lagging far behind its potential. There are just barely as
many active pros now as there were in 1983 when I turned management over
to the players. More importantly, we don't have a broad enough base of
recreational players to support major sponsorship from manufacturers outside of
our sport.
It doesn't take much investigation to find the source of the problem, Le., we
simply and surely are driving the recreational players away with excessive
length, straight holes that require distances as the only criteria, courses with no
signs, and holes over water that are unreachable by the average recreational
player.
little attention is given to the fact that our game's roots come from the sheer
enjoyment of controlling the flight of a piece of plastic. Early discs can easily fly
around objects in thair path and early courses were designed requiring the
player to use finesse and control. Now we have discs that have a mind of their
own. Standup and Throw as hard as you can, not once, but two or three times
just to get to the area where a putt is reachable. I have a course in my area
where the players refuse recreational tees as they will be in the way of the "PRO
TEES." This is elitism at its lowest form. The evidence is overwhelming all over the
U. S. even in Japan.
e
The pros are paying a heavy price for satiating their personal needs. Most
players came from recreational courses and have forgotten their first deuce
and holes under 300' are scoffed at. Those few courses with recreational tees
are not only surviving, they are thriving. look around you, 500 plays or more a
week is the norm.
2536 Freedom Blvd. Watsonville, CA 95076 Phone (408) 722-6037 Fax (408) 722-8176
Girls and boys, families, recreational players of all walks of life are enjoying the
true meaning of Disc Golf. How many pros are playing the pro courses?
The D~A is going to take a positive step to correct this condition. It is our
intention to re.establish our early and successful regional pro program. All
courses will be designed by or under the supervision of our regional pro or they
won't be shipped. This will be done at no cost to our customer. The regional
pros will be paid 2.5% of the net course sales to compensate for their efforts. The
course commission is now 7.5% . of the net sales price, less expenses, on
commission reservation letters that have been recorded after June 15, 1995. The
course designer will be paid 5%. Our regional reps will also receive a 5%
commission on all Disc Golf Association (D.G.A.) Disc sales that occur in their
region
No recreational course will exceed 3,800' for 18 holes. Once the recreational
tees are installed, advanced tees out to 4,890 may be set. Pro tees will remain
at the discre~ion of the local pros. If you want a 6,000' course, put in your own
tees, but ~on'nouch the recreational course. (We just designed, or redesigned,
an 18 hole course in Wisconsin that has a total of less than 3,800 feet
recreational tees and over 6,000' pro tees and ~veryone is happy.)
This policy will be made clear in our literature to the Parks Department or
customer alike. Our liability insurance requires that we design the course. To
assure that this happens, we will require a ,liability release from the park
department before we ship any course that our representatives have not
designed or signed off.
We are also reopening membership In the Disc Golf Association Recreational
Player's Division and solicit you to join. The current lifetime membership fee, if
you had a valid membership in the Disc Golf Association, will be 50 cents and
new members will pay a lifetime fee of $10. Regional Pros will be on the Board
of Governors and rules will be as they now appear on our rules sign, the most fun
will win. If you remember your old number, it's yours, If you hurry. If you want a
new outrageous number, it's yours if no one else has it.' Michelle and Mike
Cozzens are DGA #003 and DGA #004 and their two-month old daughter,
Willow, is DGA #003.5.
I want you to know that the D.G.A. will not even consider doing anything that
will hurt Qr detract from the P .D.G.A. It is indeed our plan, hope, and desire to
feed thousands of players into the P .D.G.A. It is also our plan to entice major
sponsors into the P.D.G.A. with our broad base of player demographics. Be
further assured that the D.G.A. is 100% dedicated to the recreational and
amateur players. Our goal is fun and satisfaction with reasonable compensation
to our regional pros. All in favor say lIfore" and send in your 50 cents or $10.

Attention: Mr. Ed Headrick, President
Dear Ed,
Thanks for your letter. We appr~ciate the interest you have in our Disc Golf here in Palo.
We have had a most pleasant and painless experience as we have debated whether. to
purchase a nine hole course, the support and enthusiasm of your district representative,
Mark Meyer was pivotal in our decision.
Mark has been a wonderful ambassador for Disc Golf in Palo. As he designed the course,
he took iJ:.1t~ .a~count the lay of the land; and used the limited space we. had to create what
I think is a unique Disc Golf experience.
'. .'. . ,
Palo has only about 800 residents. The course was fmished and ready to play
approximately 1 August, 1995. Our main objective in establishing a Disc Golf course
was to utilize an area of City park that was overgrown and deserted. TIrls area has now
become 'bile of the best maintained and utilized park areas in the city.
e
I have struggled, though, in trying to get the population interested in Disc Golf. Again,
Mark has been quite helpful and supportive. We plan to hold more clinics in the spring
and summer of "96, (because you have to learn from the pros how to fling a disc 200
feet), and we intend to also conduct some Disc Golf tournaments, flighted for various
skill levels.
Those who have played, (niy family really enjoys it), have all had great things to ~ay
about the course. I have talked to many professional Disc Golfers who admit fuatthey
find the cQurse challenging, even for them. I look forward to plaY4ig.a round with you
and Mark the next time you're in the Cedar Rapids area. I have attached a rough course
layout for your review.
Again,'thanks for your after the sale interest in our Disc Golf co~se.
Very trul)'y'~urs,

Dear Hr. Headrick:
After having installed the eighteen hole Disc Golf Course at
Acorn Park last Spring, we have had nothing but fantastic results.
People have been flocking to. the course and we have had no vandal-
ism in a park that previously was heavily vandalized.
We are extremely pleased at the q~al~ty of the product and feel
that Disc Golf has been one of our finest additions to the Rosev;'le
park system.

Dear 101s. Wright:
This, letter is written. in support of Disc Golfers in your
local area. Our experience with disc golf in Crystal MN
has been very positive and I wanted to let you know what has
been happening here.
Disc Golf is a very popular sport in Minnesota and here in
Crystal, the Minnesota Disc Golf Association has been active
in securing a facility for play. A disc golf course was
designed and built at our largest park area by the local ~
Disc Golf Association. The city has plans to upgrade the ~
course to 18 holes (presently there are 11) and have baskets
at all holes (many are marked posts). Our maintenance
department finds that upkeep on the course is minimal.
Our cooperative venture with the disc golfers has been
mutually rewarding. The golfers maintain the course area,
and they have offered community programs to generate more
interest in their sport. Disc golfers come in all ages and
abilities. Several tourneys are held throughout the season
including one in the winter! When I visit the park during
the spring, summer and fall, no matter what time of day,
there are always people playing. The course has not been
vandalized and general park vandalism has been reduced. I
attribute those facts to the number of people in the park
playing disc golf.
All in sll, I have found Crystal's relationship with disc
golf to be successful. It is good, wholesome family fun -
the type of activity that Parks and Recreation Departments
should promote.
Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Wright:
This letter is being written at the request of Ralph Williamson
of Seattle, Washington, who asked me to share with you the exper-
ience of the C~ty of Wichita's Park and Recreation Department per-
taining to disc golf courses in our community.,
We currently have two disc golf courses in Wichita--a 9-hole course
in Oak Par~ and an l8-hole course located in Herman Hill Park.
The Herman Hill course has received considerable praise for its
design, the facilities and the aesthetic qualities of the park.
It has been the site of several tournaments which continue to
grow each year. This has been accomplished through the coopera-
tive efforts of the Kansas Disc Golf Association and the Park and
Recreation Department. We have enjoyed a good relationship with
the Association and between their private fund raising efforts and
the Park Department's assistance with installation, we have been
able to build these courses that have added another dimension in
terms of recreational opportunities for our city.
The courses are located in parks that have a reputation for some
undesirable elements and the presence of the disc golf courses
has helped eliminate some of this negativity. It is an activity
that is enjoyed by families as well as the dedicated disc golfers
and I think you will find it to be an asset in your community.
Please let me know if you have any' further questions or if I can
provide additional information.

Dear Ms Wright:
The City of Las Vegas Park and Leisure Activities Department has ~maintained
a Disc Golf Course at a downtown park (Lions) for almost 20 years. During 4It
that time, the layout pf the course has been changed twice and expandea to
18 holes. .
The local Disc Golfers have maintained the tees (cement) and baskets, and
the City's sign shop just recently repainted all the tee signs.
In my opinion, a Disc Pole Hole Golf Course is an extremely worthwhile
addition to any community that has the space available. One of the
benefits, which is not always considered by Park officials, is that when a
course is installed it brings people to the Park for legitimate recreational
activity. This influx of purposeful visitors, tends to discourage visitors
who are there for no purpose other than to hang out and quite often get into
mischief.
Again, I can recommend without reservation, a Disc Golf Course as a bonafide
addition to a Park Department's inventory of leisure time activities.

Dear Mr. Irwin:
e
Recently, Mike Monroe from Poulsbo, Washington, called to discuss
the merits of our disc golf facilities. I informed Hike that we
,bad installed our first nine'boles in 1978 and subsequently tbe
second nine through a civic club donation. Heedless to say, we
have been very pleased with the results of our disc golf
facilities. At the time of Ed Headrick's on sit." desiq.n1ng of
our course, he forecasted as to what our experience would be. Bd
was absolutely correct when he said that our primary users would
be 19 to 30 years of age, minor littering and no vandalism!
As I stated in a 1978 letter regarding our disc golf facility,
there is still no question in my mind that our disc golf facility
is tbe most significant and utilized recreational offering that
our, city bas provided in many years.
If I can be of further assistance in this matter, please contact
my office.
sincerely,
b~v. ~ ~

Dear Ed:
As the desiiner of our 18 hole disc golf course at ~adeline
Bertrand County Park near Niles, Michigan, I thought you
might be interested in a b~ief status report.
We are now well into the second: full year of operating our
18 hole disc golf course. I am pleased to tell you that the
course has met and exceeded.all our expectations of public
use and acceptance. The course itself has been a tremendous
drawing card. In 1986, our fir,st ,full year of operation we
saw over 13,000 players. During the first eight months of
1987 we have seen over 11,000 golfers and expect to see
anywhere between 15,000-18,000 golfers by year's end. Both
sexes and virtually every age group are enjoYing this
activity. we see mom and dad with the kids, seniors and
young adults. G~lfers between 18 and 28 years of age are
probably the most predominant. This we think is great
because that is an age group so often forgotten in public
parks and recreation.
e
We have found routine maintenance of the course to be
minimal. Controlling erosion on the slopes of the back nine
has been the only problem area. We have not had a problem
with litter and vandalism of the course equipment is non-
existent. This we attribute to the golfers' protective
attitude toward "their course".
Enthusiasm for the course has resulted in the formation of
the St. Joseph River Wind Spirits Disc Golf Club. The Club
assists the County Parks Department with profession~l and
amateur tourn.rncnts, instruction clinics. promotional
activities, course security and some maintenance activities.

Disc ~olf is a:relatively new sport in this part of the
country and media coverale of the Course and our tournaments
has been excellent. This level of exposure has led to.
inquiries and visits from other public recreation agencies
and subsequently the birth of at least t~o new Courses.
e
Much to our delight, disc golf has also proved to be a
.relatively ~ood income producing activity. This aspect is
most important nowadays liven the fierce competition for tax
dollars to support public recreation services. Our decision
to institute modest fees for disc lolf has met with

Dear Ed:
.1
Rich Hughes save me copies of various letters you have received
regarding disc solf courses. After reading through them 1 decided to
write 1D)'self. '
As you may know ve recently purchased a new 9 hole kit which will '
complete our 18 hole course at Irandywine Creek State 'ark. Thanks
to a cooperative effort by my.park staff and volunteer disc solfers
from Delaware ve have installed and made improvements to all 18 holes.
The Delaware disc solfers have saved the state labor costs by donating
their services. Hopefully the funds saved may be able to be put to an
additional 9 holes at another park.
e
I believe working with these men has been good for all of us. ~e
have a better understanding ~ each other. ve bave made new friendships
and vorking relationships. The fellows that vorked on the course now
have a course that they can really call their own.
Since ve installed the orisinal 9 holes in 1980 we have noticed a
big change in the character ,of the park. The disc lolf course has given
our young visitors something to do besides hanging around the parking lots.
~e have also experienced a drop in vandalism vhich I attribute to the course.
This past year ve have had an increase in the sale of discs and since
the full 18 has been in. the use of the course has mushroomed, and so has
sales. All in all the disc golf course ha~ had a most desirable impact
on the park and its use.
Sincere~ yours~

Minnesota Firm Finds Sustainable
Forestry Good for Business
The growing demand for timber and other forest products has prompted sometimes bitter conflicts
between loggers and conservationist~, but one Minnesota company may have struck a balance.
Colonial Craft of St. Paul may be the first manufacturer of moldings and picture frames that
uses wood from forests managed for a sustainable future. They insist that their lumber suppliers
practice logging methods that preserve the beauty and diversity of ecosystems.
Colonial Craft only buys lumber from suppliers certified by an independent ~hird party that
evaluates their forest management practices. Smart Wood of New York and Scientific
Certification Systems of California assess lumber companies' forest management practices
using several criteria:
. Does the company use sustainable forest practices?
. Is the integrity of the ecosystem being maintained?
. What are the socioeconomic benefits to the community?
To ensure consistent and reliable evaluations, Colonial Craft participated in the development of
the international Forest Stewardship Council that requires certifiers to follow strict criteria.
Input from companies like Colonial Craft has been crucial to the council's credibility.
"We believe that promoting sustainable forestry is not only good for the environment but good
for business. We see certification as an important tool for ensuring the perpetuation of forests and
thus our own prosperity and that of our employees," said Eric Bloomquist. Colonial Craft CEO.
Within five years, Colonial Craft will offer certified wood products exclusively. For more
information about tl!e company and the certification program, contact Bloomquist or Jeanne
Germain at (612) 631-3110.

Miscellaneous Business: Chairperson Buck Malick introduced Nathan Gin, who
volunteered to run the video camera at meetings when he is available. Video tapes of
meetings are available from Kate Hanson.
e
Buck noted comments received from several individuals since the last meeting. Mark
Smith voiced concerns about clarifying the linkage between the task force's summer
meetings and other planning steps. He would like to see a framework outlined. Buck
reviewed the Task Force's earlier decision to have background sessions on natural
resources, then address the human interaction with these resources. Buck indicated
that Elaine Rideout was at the meeting (Elaine is a planning team member from the
Denver Service Center) and could speak briefly to the next workshop. Buck also
mentioned concerns raised by Valley resident Chris Hayner regarding water surface
use. Buck noted that this will be discussed at meetings August 20 and 21.
Jim Johnson asked to go on record with information that the Sierra Club and the
Voyageurs Region National Park Association have filed suit against the Department of
Transportation and the National Park Service regarding the proposed Stillwater bridge.
He stated this lawsuit indicates that local people cannot count on the National Park
Service to protect the resource (Le. the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway).
Terry Moe, WI DNR, announced an upcoming meeting with power companies, the
Public Service Commission, and Highway Departments from both sides of the river to
discuss design plans for the new Stillwater bridge that could include equipping this
bridge to accommodate utility crossings.
e
Elaine Rideout of the National Park Service of Denver reported that planning team
members from the National Park Service's Denver Service Center will be here to get
out on the river to become more familiar with the resources and see the range of use
of the Lower Riverway. Elaine said that resources available and use of the Lower St.
Croix River will be the subject of the next workshop, planned for September. Results
from that workshop will form the basis for developing alternatives.

How the Valley was Formed (Geology): presentation by J.D. Lehr, Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources-Division of Minerals: Using visual aids, J.D. gave
a geological history of the formation of the St. Croix Valley. A topographical map
illustrated a broad trough extending from Lake Superior to the Minnesota River Valley,
with higher ground in west central Minnesota and eastern Wisconsin. Glacial patterns
created two distinct types of watersheds in the St. Croix Valley. Glacier patterns also
created various rock outcrops. He spoke of three types of rocks that included volcanic,
sandstone, and limestone; volcanic being the oldest and located in the what is now
the "dalles" of the St. Croix River Valley.
e
The oldest geologic event that occurred in the formation of the Valley was rifting, a
billion years ago, when there was spreading ofthe earth's crust and eruptions of lava.
The Ice Age was the next stage of the Valley's formation. During this time, Minnesota
was glaciated. The advancement and melting of glaciers lobing down from Lake
Superior formed lakes and led to drainage into the St. Croix River. Various rock
formations and soil deposits along the St. Croix River resulted from this glacier
activity. Glaciers th!=it moved up from the south also deposited different soils in the
St. Croix Valley. Drainage from lakes created by these directional glaciers deposited
sand and gravel in various parts of the St. Croix Valley and northwestern Wisconsin.
The sand and gravel are valuable resources that are mined today.
The drainage events created a variety of channels, followed by soil deposits, and
resulted in formation of terraces along the" St. Croix River in the St. Croix Falls-Osceola
area. Potholes are another unique feature of the St. Croix Valley. The potholes were
created by high drainage discharge coming down the St. Croix, picking up stones in
eddies, and drilling holes in the riverbed.
e
He described the formation of Lake Pepin: with extensive discharge from the
Chippewa River, sediment built up and dammed up the Mississippi, forming the lake.
Lake St. Croix formed !n a similar fashion by build up of sediment at Point Douglas.
J.D. answered questions regarding the progression of sedimentation of the St. Croix
River. He stated that it is a natural phenomenon but poor land management can result
in excessive sedimentation and accelerate the filling in of the river. Shoreline erosion
naturally adds to sedimentation activity.
He spoke of the various mineral resources located in the St. Croix, Valley. There is
potential for oil and gas in the St. Croix Valley, but no active exploration. Oil and gas
are available in other parts of Wisconsin--and the world. The sand and gravel are
perhaps of greater significance and it is important to have them available locally.
J.D. also described the sandstone bedrock that exists above and below the St. Croix
River. This bedrock holds high-quality groundwater. Groundwater pollution is possible,
so good land management practices are important.

Biological Survey Information: presentation by Dan Wovcha, Minnesota County
Biological Survey: Using slides, Dan gave background information on the landscape
of the Lower St. Croix Valley in the mid 1800s, how it changed, and examples of
some of the natural plant communities now and then.
The last stages of the Ice Age (about 4000 years ago) strongly influenced the patterns
of vegetation present at the time of settlement, in the mid 1800s. The patterns of
vegetation communities at that time resulted from climate changes that occurred when
the glaciers melted. Tundra warmed, which brought prairie, and then cooled again,
resulting in deciduous forests. By the 1800s, a variety of oak and deciduous forests,
prairies, marshes and swamps flourished.
Surveyors in the mid 1800s provided detailed descriptions of the vegetation before
extensive settlement and agricultural practices occurred. The vegetation distributions
correlated strongly with the glacial landforms, but there also existed a significant
amount of brushlands, prairie and savannahs that did not correlate with landforms or
geology. This was because of Native Americans' use of fire. Later, the natural
vegetative communities were altered by logging, farming, and urban development.
Today, 94% of the native vegetative communities in the Lower St. Croix Valley are
gone. Of the various vegetative communities, less than 1 percent of prairie remains,
about 6 percent of forest, 20 percent of forest swamps and 11 percent of marshlands.
Native vegetation that does remain is fragmented, has fewer species than in larger
natural habitats. The fragmented parcels are threatened by invading species and
grazing. Also, management of remaining natural areas is difficult--for example, prairie
might be spared in development, but burning would be necessary to maintain the
prairie over time, and this is very difficult when there is development nearby. This
raises a question of where to focus protection efforts--should effort be focused where
there are larger parcels to protect?
Dan spoke of the difficulties in restoring lost native vegetative commUnities.
Restoration is not impossible, but requires long periods of time. He cited benefits of
preserving diverse vegetative habitats: they serve as a hedge against future
environmental stresses, are habitat for rare and endangered species, provide soil rich
for agricultural use, aesthetic and economic benefits, maintaining biodiversity.
Dan identified some ways to protect natural areas: private organizations such as Trust
for Public Lands, land trusts; state parks, wildlife management areas, private
preserves, conservation easements. Dan concluded his presentation with a series of
slides of plants that exist in the various types of natural communities of the St. Croix
Valley.
Dan answered questions:
Q: Which native vegetative communities are especially sensitive, difficult to restore,
or should be sought out to be restored? A: tamarack, hardwood seepage swamps,
woodlands.
:;
.
'II,.., ~
Q: When the Riverway boundaries were drawn, were these natural habitats known?
A: probably not due to the lack of data available~
e
Q: Could prairie remnants be linked? A: Yes, there is potential to do this with cluster
development, private landowners planting native vegetation in their yards, etc. This
could be promoted by working with local communities'to change ordinances, working
with landowners, working with developers.
Follow-up and Observations:
*
Get available inventories of sensitive natural vegetation sites to determine what
areas need protection, where it might be important to add on to existing
Scientific and Natural Areas, other types of protected areas in both Minnesota
and Wisconsin. Dan Wovcha says:
*
Need to identify where rock pits, quarries are in the valley.
*
Encourage appropriate reclamation of sand and gravel mines. (For more
information on mineral resources: permitting is done at local level of
government. The state would have information on reclamation.)
*
Need information on how taxes affect ability to protect resources on private
land.
e
*
Need to determine potential for gas/oil drilling in the St. Croix Valley.
*
Be geologically sensitive. Identify groundwater linkages to riverway.
*
Managing agencies should put more emphasis on education than on interpretive
centers. Need more education on what's unique about what's here. This
education needed for landowners as well as the public. Private organizations
and communities have a role in this as well as the agencies that manage the
Lower St. Croix.
*
Focus attention on current Wisconsin efforts for aquatic and terrestrial
inventory.
*
Create a sense of stewardship and the benefits to the landowner. Broaden our
sense of what needs to be preserved.
