MEMORANDUM
TO: Park and Recreation Commission
FR: City Coordinator
RE: Items for meeting
DA: June 5, 1998
Sports Complex
1. Priority Use Classification Policy
The attached priority use policy was developed after surveying several of other public
facilities. In fact, the proposed policy is almost identical to that which was adopted by the
City of Woodbury for the Bielinberg complex. The policy gives priority to the general
"public use" of the facilities such as open skating, skating lessons and other skating programs
that are usually not associated with organized programs (e.g., hockey and soccer
associations). This means that the City (through its management company) must provide a
reasonable number of hours both prime and non-prime time, for "public" skating. However,
in reality the majority of the hours, including prime time hours, will be sold to major users
such as ISD 834 and the two Associations.
2. Proposed Fee Schedule
The proposed Fee schedule was also developed after reviewing the fees of many other public
facilities. Although the ice time hourly rate is slightly higher than the average ice time rate,
the fees, overall, are very comparable to what other providers are charging. The fees are
comparable and they are also what will be needed to try to keep the operations in the black
(or at least to minimize any losses).
The use policy and fees can be discussed further at the meeting Monday night
Staples Field issue
The City has received several complaints, including calls to the Police Department (basically
from the same complainant) regarding noise and profane language from individuals using the
new basketball courts at Staples Field. The courts are relatively close to the complainants house
and it would appear that the noise would be a problem some of the time. However, the resident is
complaining more about the profanity than the noise.
I am not sure what can be done about this matter. One ofthe residents is suggesting that one side
of the tennis courts be converted to a basketball court and the basketball court would then be
converted to a tennis court. I do not know if this is practical. I would recommend that some
signage be used to inform the users of the courts that unreasonable noise and profanity will not
be tolerated. Profanity is a difficult thing to regulate and enforce. However, "loud" profanity may
be easier to deal with. One of the residents will probably be at the meeting Monday to discuss
1 .
I. .
this issue with you further (I tried to contact the resident before this memo was prepared but
unsuccessful in my attempts - primarily because of "telephone tag").
. McKusick Lake issues
I am enclosing some information relevant to the discussion the City has had with some of the
residents that live on or near McKusick Lake. The residents are concerned about the continuing
degradation of McKusick Lake (which is as much the result of a natural process affecting all
lakes in Minnesota and elsewhere as it is from any other factor) and about the impact the new
developments would have on the lake (including lake levels, water quality and water quantity.
The residents would also like to have the city improve and maintain the recreational
opportunities of the lake (e.g., non-motorized boating, stocking offish, skating rinks, etc.).
City staff have prepared a response to the residents concerns and discussed this matter with the
Council and the residents at the meeting of June 2nd. Basically the residents were told that the
AUAR study includes certain mitigation procedures for any impacts that the new development
would have and the situation would be monitored to try to ensure that the impacts would be
minimized.
One ofthe more serious issues is the level of the lake. The DNR level is 852.2. The level for the
past 10 to 15 years has been about 853.5 Further the level required to handle the storm water and
water runoff from new development is about 852.5. This situation will require further study and
action by the Engineering Department.
.
In regards to the recreational opportunities, I have discussed this matter with Tim Thomsen and it
would appear that skating rinks, non-motorized boating and the stocking of fish are feasible.
Public access would be required for non-motorized boating and probably for skating rinks as
well. Obviously there would be some cost involved so I would suggest that staffbe directed to
obtain cost estimates as well as a more detailed report on implementing a program for expanding
the recreational opportunities of McKusick Lake.
Amundson property
A request for rezoning the Amundson property to allow the construction of multi-family
townhomes was denied by the City Council at their June 2nd meeting. As you may recall the city
attempted to purchase this property from the owner about 3 years ago. The owner did not wish to
sell the property at that time because she believed the property would be allowed to be developed
into town homes even though staff at that time had expressed doubts as to whether or not an
application for rezoning would be approved (the property is zoned single family an is adjacent to
an area - Oak Glen - that is zoned and developed as single family. However, there are also
approximately 30 townhomes just to the east of the Amundson property).
In any event this property is still available for parks and open space use. I would recommend that
the Commission revisit this matter to determine whether or not it is a high priority item. I can
discuss this further with you at the meeting.

Parks Master Plan
Steve is still in the process of developing information regarding the proposed Parks Master Plan.
Steve will not be prepared to meet with Commission this meeting. However, he will be at the
next meeting.
Forest Protection/Management
The City Council has authorized entering into a contract with Ms. Kathy Widen for assisting the
City in forestry protection and management. I have been meeting with Kathy and we are in the
process of developing a set of work programs related to forestry management.
One of the first steps will be to identify the needs and goals the City should have regarding its
tree resource. We hope to accomplish this first step by meeting with a number of interested
parties in a workshop session. I will be recommending the participation of at least two members
of the Park and Recreation Commission, one or two members of the Open Space Commission, a
land developer (need to look at the issues from all perspectives!!) and one or two members of the
general public. Tentative dates of June 25 and July 14 (7:00 P.M. ??) have been set for the
workshops.
I can also discuss this further with you at the meeting Monday.

Parks and Recreation Board
May 18, 1998
Present:
David Junker, chairperson
Linda Amrein, Nancy Brown, Rich Cummings, Al Liehr,
Del Peterson, Leah Peterson, and Steve Wolff
Others:
Steve Russell, Community Development Director
Absent:
Dawn Flinn, Rob McGarry and Mike Polehna
Mr. Junker called the meeting to order at 7:05 p.m.
Approval of minutes: Mr. Liehr moved to approve the minute of April 27, 1998. Ms. Brown
noted a typo in a reference to Ms. Amrein. Ms. Peterson asked to go on record opposed to
spending $15,000 for the play equipment at Northland Park until a plan is completed for the
entire park; she suggested that the play equipment, as proposed, is not in the best location. Ms.
Brown seconded the motion to approve the minutes as corrected, with Ms. Peterson's comments
noted for the record; motion passed unanimously.
.
Park Master Plan
Mr. Russell provided a hand-out from the Comprehensive Plan and a memo to the City Council
regarding a Park Master Plan. He also had copies of several plans from area cities. He further
noted that only four questionnaires he had asked Park Board members to complete had been
returned.
Mr. Russell outlined four questions that he thought the Park Board should address before
proceeding with a plan. The critical question, he said, is who is the plan for? The city of
Stillwater only? The city and surrounding area? Region? He suggested a plan might be
significantly different depending on the answer to that question. Other questions to be addressed
include whether open space should be a portion of the plan; how a master plan would make the
Park Board's job easier; and what specific items - trails, linking park resources, handicapped
access, a pavilion, etc. - should be included in a plan.
Mr. Cummings noted that the $50,000 the City Council approved to hire a consultant to prepare a
master plan is not in this year's budget, so now is a good time to address the questions. He
suggested the possibility of asking citizens to evaluate park needs. He also suggested the
possibility of having the plan prepared in-house, hiring a parks director/manager whose job
description includes the preparation of a master plan. Mr. Russell said preparation of a master
plan is a lengthy process and probably should be done by a consultant; the need for a parks
director, he said, should come out of the master plan process.
The focus of the board's discussion centered on the need for a liaison/planning support person to
work with the board. Mr. Russell suggested that whatever the board does there should be a strong
consensus to do the master plan and include the need/justification for a park director as part of
. the planning process.
.' .
. Mr. Junker urged members to complete their questionnaires and return them to Mr. Russell.
Sports Facility update
Mr. Cummings noted the Spancrete strike had not been settled at the time of the meeting. Mr.
Russell informed members that additional TIF revenue will allow seating to be installed on both
sides of the arena; the City Council was expected to approve that change order at its next
meeting.
.
.
New business
Mr. Cummings stated trails near Pioneer Park are dangerous and need to be repaired; that will be
a staff request item at a City Council meeting.
Ms. Amrein suggested that members walk the Aiple property so everyone is familiar with the
property when the consultant meets with the board.
Old business
Ms. Peterson asked whether the city had hired a forester. Mr. Cummings said that action was on
the City Council agenda for the following day.
Ms. Peterson asked about a new tree ordinance. Mr. Junker noted developing a new tree
ordinance was one of the charges of the Open Space Committee.
Mr. Junker informed members that Fred Francis' request for a hot dog wagon in Lowell Park
during Music on the Waterfront concerts had been turned down by the City of Stillwater
Chamber of Commerce as the chamber had already agreed to allow Scout groups to sell food
items in the park during the concerts.
Mr. Wolff, sec~mded by Mr. Liehr, moved to adjourn at 8:15 p.m.; all in favor.
Respectfully submitted,
Sharon Baker
Recording Secretary

MCKUSICK LAKE ISSUES
1. WATER LEVEL.
A. LEVEL FOR PAST 5 YEARS HAS AVERAGED 853.5.
B. ORIGINAL DESIGN LEVEL FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT WAS 851.
C. MINIMUM LEVEL NEEDED FOR PROJECT IS 852 TO 852.5.
D. DNR LEVEL IS 852.2 (OHW).
E. FINAL LEVEL WOULD PROBABLY BE SET AT 852.2 (DNR LEVEL).
2. IMPROVE WATER QUALITY.
A. DETERMINE PRESENT WATER QUALITY.
B. MONITOR WATER QUALITY POST-PROJECT.
1. POSSIBILITY THAT ADDITIONAL FLOW OF WATER MAY IMPROVE
WATER QUALITY.
3. MAINTAIN AND IMPROVE THE RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES OF THIS IN-
TOWN LAKE:
A. OBTAIN ESTIMATE FOR DREDGING PART OF LAKE. MAYBE ABLE TO
CREATE "HOLES" THAT WOULD ALLOW SOME FISH TO SURVIVE
WINTERKILL. STOCKING OF FISH COULD ALSO BE DONE. DREDGING
CAN BE EXPENSIVE.
B. NON-MOTORIZED BOATING WOULD REQUIRE PUBLIC ACCESS. SOME
SITES ALONG LAKE COULD BE USED (E.G., ON NORTHEAST SIDE OF
LAKE ALONG MCKUSICK LAKE ROAD).
C. SWIMMING DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE FEASIBLE GIVEN THE LEVEL AND
PRESENT CONDITION OF THE LAKE. SWIMMING MA Y BE POSSIBLE IF
SOME DREDGING WAS DONE, BUT UNLIKELY.
D. PARKS CREWS MAY BE ABLE TO CREATE ICE-SKATING RINKS. ACCESS
WOULD BE NEEDED (PERHAPS AT SAME LOCA nON FOR BOAT ACCESS
IF FEASIBLE). SHOULD DETERMINE THE DEMAND FOR A RINK AND THE
PRACTICALITY OF AN OUTDOORS RINK (LOCATION, WARMING HOUSE,
ETC.).
E. W ALKINGIBIKING PATHS ALREADY EXIST ON THE NORTHEAST SIDE OF
THE LAKE. CITY IS PRESENTLY WORKING ON A PLAN FOR A PATH
AROUND THE ENTIRE LAKE (USING EXISTING DIKE ON NORTH SIDE OF
LAKE).
4. PRESERVE VALUABLE WILDLIFE HABITAT.
A. PROJECT MITIGATION WORK IS DESIGNED TO PROTECT ENVIRONMENT
INCLUDING WILDLIFE HABITAT.
5. PROPERTY VALUES OF HOMEOWNERS NOT LIKELY TO DECREASE UNLESS
AVERAGE LAKE LEVEL FALLS BELOW 852. IT APPEARS THAT AVERAGE LEVEL
. WOULD BE ABOUT 852.5 (IF LEVEL SET AT DNR ELEV AnON OF 852.2).

Citizens for the Preservation and Restoration of McKusick lake
Mission Statement
McKusick Lake is a valuable in-town water resource that is being threatened by
neglect and development. Our mission is to preserve andrestore the quality of the
lake. We believe a comprehensive plan should be designed to maintain and
stabilize the current water level and improve water quality. The goal is to enhance
the esthetic and recreational value of the lake, protect wildlife habitat, and
maintain property values.
Objectives:
A) Maintain water level at 853.5 feet, the level for the last five years.
B) Improve water quality.
C) Maintain and improve the recreational opportunities of this
in-town lake:
· Fishing
. Non-motorized Boating
· Swimming
· Ice Skating Rinks
· Walking/Biking Paths
D) Preserve valuable wildlife habitat.
E) Protect the property values of shoreline and lake area home owners.
We strongly object to the drawing down of McKusick Lake to the
status of a holding pond for excess runoff
due to new development.

Nena Amundson
211 Odebolt Drive
Thousand Oaks, CA 91360
Dear Nena:
I am writing to you to bring you up to date on the City's continuing interest and effort to acquire
what we are calling" The Amundson Park" property. First of all I recently met with Bruce Folz,
Dave Magnuson and the City Engineer to discuss some of the issues related to the property.
During the discussion it was discovered that the property appears to be encumbered by drainage
easements. The drainage easements appear to include the area that is shown (in blue) on the
enclosed map. One of the easements is recorded as Doc. No. 400713. According to Dave
Magnuson, the other easement, which lies east of Amundson Drive and west of the ponding area,
was obtained during the platting of Oak Glen. This easement may not have been recorded.
However, Mr. Magnuson recalls having Henry Amundson sign the easement. City staff are
presently searching City records for eyidence of the easement.
If the other easement exists it would appear that the area adjacent to Amundson Drive would
have rather limited development potential. Further, the area to the west and immediately adjacent
to Stonebridge Elementary School has extreme slopes, is subject to drainage easements and
would also appear to have limited development potential. Overall, it would appear that the land
has limited development potential (at least from a cost recovery stand point) or at least not to the
degree that was initially contemplated.
After careful consideration of the issues discussed above I would like to have you consider the
following proposal:
1) The City would offer to purchase the "net" property for $150,000.The "net" property
would be the property "net" of the two buildings and lots of sufficient size to make them
standard lots.
2) The City would consider the issuance of a General Obligation Bond to you in the
amount of the purchase price, payable over 10 years with an interest rate of 6.5%. This
would be a tax exempt bond and the interest would not be subject to either State or
Federal income tax as the payments are received by the holder.
3) The City would agree with the owner that the City is paying less than fair market value
for the property. This could result in a deduction against income tax payable for the year
CITY HALL: 216 NORTH FOURTH STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 55082 PHONE: 612-439-6121
. . .
to the extent of 50% of your adjusted gross income in the year of the gift. If the entire
deduction is not used in one year the deduction could be carried forward for as many as .
five years until it is fully used. However, the City could make no promises to you about
the deductibility of such a gift, since it could be subject to the Bargain Sale Rules enacted
in the Tax Reform Act of 1989, and you would have to obtain your own legal advise on
the deductibility of any portion of such a gift.
4) The City would assume all expenses associa~d with obtaining a survey of the premise,
and subdividing the two houses that the d3~~would retain. The City would also attempt
to configure the legal descriptions of the parcels to maximize their road access and to
insure each parcel would be freely transferable to future buyers and not be landlocked by
the Park that would be created on the remaining land.
5) Finally, the City would be responsible for the demolition of the old Oak Glen barn, the
cement storage building, the old Oak Glen Dairy building and for the associated clean up
of the area, at no cost to the seller.
Please understand that this offer is contingent upon Council approval. If this offer is acceptable
to you in concept, I will present same to the City Council for further discussion and "fine
tuning" of the proposal.
Sincerely, ,....

MEMORANDUM
TO: Park and Recreation Commission
FR: City Coordinator
RE: June meeting
DA: May 27,1998
Due to the necessity of having to establish a proposed rate structure for the Sports Complex (and
Lily Lake) ASAP, it is necessary to meet earlier during the month of June. Therefore, Chairman
Junker has set the meeting for June 8th. Hopefully this will not unduly interfere with your
business or personal schedule. An agenda for the meeting of June 8th will be mailed to you next
week.
A copy of the proposed rate structure and a proposed use classification policy accompanies this
memorandum. Please review them for discussion and consideration at the June 8th meeting.
