and Mayor Zaun. Absent: Councilmember Enright.
Also present: Roger Knutson, City Attorney; Darrell Schneider,
Consulting Engineer; Richard Radermacher, Chief of Police; James
.Robinette, Community Development Director; Dennis Feller, Finance
Director and Patrick McGarvey, City Administrator/Clerk
Staff announcements: The City administrator requested the council to
set a special council meeting for Wednesday, November 4, 1987, at city
hall to canvass the city election results from November 3rd.
87.461 Motion was made by Harvey, seconded by Sindt to set a special council
meeting for November 4, 1987, at city hall at 7:00 p.m.
Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Nelson,. Zaun, Sindt, Harvey.
Citizen comments: There were none.
87.462 Motion was made by Sindt, seconded by Harvey to approve the consent
agenda.
(Council Agenda attached hereto is incorporated by reference and
specifically made a part hereof . )
Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Nelson, Zaun, Sindt, Harvey.
At this time, Darrell Schneider presented a detailed review of the
proposed assessments on project 86-3, 165th Street improvement, east of
Kenrick Avenue and recommended a revised assessment schedule for
parcels the city had received an appeal on at the October 8th special
council meeting concerning this project. Mr. Schneider pointed out
that the main difference in the final cost compared to the estimated
project cost at the June 26, 1986 public improvement hearing was due to
the change in the storm sewer system from a rural ditch type to an
urban pipe. The change was necessary to effectively accommodate the
storm drainage resulting from development in the project area.
Mr. Schneider showed a slide presentation on how the funding would
support the final project cost, including the reduction in the assess-
ments for the storm sewer on these parcels at this time, with the
amount being reduced to be picked up in the future through assessment
of the storm drainage costs set by council resolution every time a
development agreement is approved for the undeveloped property. For
the platted property, it was recommended that the council adopt a city
ordinance which would impose a connection charge for the storm sewer

system for the platted but unbuilt on parcels so that they pay the
difference between the current assessment and the storm sewer plan rate
at the time a building permit is requested in the future.
87.463 Motion was made by Harvey, seconded by Nelson to adopt the revisions in
the assessments on parcels contained in the Exhibits dated November 2nd
presented by Darrell Schneider on parcels of property as indicated in
the exhibits, with the City to eventually pick up the difference in the
actual storm drainage costs and the assessed cost at the time property
is platted in the future through the development agreement or through a
storm sewer connection charge to be imposed at the time a building
permit is issued on platted property.
Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Zaun, Sindt, Harvey, Nelson.
87.464 Motion was made by Harvey, seconded by Nelson to take no action to
reduce the assessment levied on October 8th on the Connelly Mobile Home
Park for street light improvements on Kenrick Avenue.
Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Sindt, Harvey, Nelson, Zaun.

At this time, Mayor Zaun opened the public hearing on project 87-25,
the extension of 175th Street east of Ipava Avenue to Highview Avenue.
The City Clerk attested to the legal notice.
Mr. Schneider presented exhibits explaining the scope of the project
and the estimated project and the estimated project costs, which total
$1,103,800 for the entire scope of the project from Ipava to Highview.
Mr. Schneider indicated that since the City did not have state aid
funding at this time to allow the street work to extend from Ipava to
Highview, that he would concentrate on the first phase of the proposed
improvement, which starts at the east side of Ipava Avenue.
Mr. Schneider also indicated that the width of the street had been
reduced to 36 feet wide to be consistent with the existing 175th Street
between Ipava and Highway 50. With this width of street, the amount of
funding from Minnesota State Aid funds is estimated at $167,750 for
phase one. Mr. Schneider also indicated that there would be an eight
foot wide asphalt multi purpose pedestrian trail on each side of 175th
Street, with five feet of the costs to be assessed to the abutting
property and three feet to be paid from the City's trail fund. Mr.
Schneider also indicated that for the properties in the Dakota Heights
8th Addition who have their side yard abutting 175th Street, that
one-half of the fees would be assessed with the exception of the

commercial parcel at the southeast corner of Ipava and 175th, which
would be for the full frontage for a commercial parcel. The total cost
for phase one is estimated at $364,500 according to Mr. Schneider, of
which approximately $148,480 is estimated to be assessed to benefited
property in the phase one project area.
Mr. John Peterson asked if money had been escrowed by the developer
from the Dakota Heights 7th addition toward these improvements, and the
City Administrator answered that there was none required to be escrowed
back in the mid 70's when the plat was approved.
Lance Johnson indicated that he did not feel there was an ample amount
of benefit for the 175th Street improvement to his property at the
southeast corner of Ipava and 175th Street at this time, and that the
road would not go all the way to Highview Avenue until the future, at
which time there would be more benefit.
Julian Zweber, an attorney representing his parents who own Parcel No.
13, indicated that they do not have any interest in the project at this
time, however, developers do have interest in purchasing his parents'
property. He also indicated that the property is currently in Green
Acres.

seven bids received on the sale of $600,000 of general obligation

obligation bonds that evening, in light of the financial market
conditions on that date. Mr. Pulscher's review of the financial
conditions at that time and since caused him to indicate he felt the
council made a prudent decision to award the sale on October 19th when
everything was considered.
At this time Mr. Tom Healey from the Healey Ramme Company presented a
letter requesting the council to consider the use of tax increment
financing assistance to facilitate the SouthFork Village apartment
project. He indicated that the tax increment assistance would be used
to lower the rents the tenants would pay to make the project finan-
cially feasible.
Councilman Harvey pointed out the possible effect that tax increment
financing may have on the school district and indicated he wished to
have information concerning what it costs to provide a public school
education to youngsters in the Lakeville district and approximately how
many students there would be in a 200 unit apartment project of this
nature.
87.471 Motion was made by Sindt, seconded by Nelson to direct and authorize

At this time, Mr. Bill Newberg read a petition from residents along
