Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Nelson, Zaun, Sindt, Enright, Harvey. At this time, 7:30 p.m., Mayor Zaun opened the public hearing on the proposed improvements to the Oak Shores 3rd Addition area consisting of sanitary sewer, watermain, storm sewer, concrete curb and gutter and new asphalt streets. The city attested to the proper legal notice for the hearing. Keith Nelson presented slides showing the location and scope of the proposed improvements in the Oak Shores 3rd Addition. The total estimated cost of all the improvements is $553,350. Mr. Nelson indicated that the project could be started yet this year or left for taking bids this winter with spring construction start-up in 1987. Mr. Nelson then showed a slide indicating the project to be assessed on a unit basis. The estimated cost for a typical R-2 zoned single family lot would be $8,333 and for an R-4 two family lot $12,812. In addition to these costs, there would be the metro and city unit utility connec- tion charges plus the cost for the property owner to extend the service line from the property line into the dwelling unit. 2 • CITY OF LAKEVILLE COUNCIL MEETING . ~ JULY 7, 1986 The city clerk indicated the project could be assessed over a 20 year period with the interest rate estimated at 10 percent on the unpaid principal beginning October 1, 1987. The clerk then gave the citizens present an estimate of the first year's principal and interest payment, which would come due in the 1988 property tax statements for the R-2 and R-4 lots. At this time Mayor Zaun opened the public hearing for questions and comments from those in attendance. Mr. Jim Maloney asked how far it is from the curb to the property line, and the answer was 14 feet. It was indicated that the service line would only disrupt a small portion of the boulevard area in front of anyone's house, as the lateral lines would be placed under the existing street surf ace, which would be replaced with the new streets. Ray Hamer asked how the project would be constructed in the large cul-de-sac area involving the project on 161st Street, and Mr. Knutson indicated that the plan was to leave the center island and trees in that cul-de-sac. Jerry Osteraas asked if we knew what a plumber charges for extending the service line into the house, and Mr. Nelson indicated he had heard figures of $14 to $20 per foot. Mr. Ed Kashuba asked how much of the cost of the improvement gets added to the market value of the house which could result in an increase in property tax. Mayor Zaun indicated that it is up to the county assessor to determine and that it does not always result in an immedi- ate increase on the property tax statement, depending on how sales go of similar properties in the neighborhood. Jerry Osteraas indicated that he wished to register his verbal opposi- tion to the project and then gave the clerk a letter from W.E. Lundeen indicating his opposition as an owner of four parcels of property involved in the project on Upper 161st Street. 86.264 Motion was made by Sindt, seconded by Harvey to receive the letters presented from Mr. Lundeen and Mr. Osteraas. Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Nelson, Zaun, Sindt, Enright, Harvey. Charles Ramsbacher asked about polices in regard to when an assessment is pending. The clerk indicated that in the city's terminology, an assessment is pending only after the city council has ordered or approved the project and comes after the conclusion of a public hearing. He then indicated he was opposed to the project because of the value not being there in relation to the estimated cost in his opinion. 3 ' CITY OF LAKEVILLE COUNCIL MEETING _ JULY 7, 1986 Lucy Maloney asked if the increase in the property value must equal the assessment, and the city attorney indicated that under Minnesota Statutes the assessment result in an increase in the value of the property of at least the same amount. Wynn Thacker questioned how the unit assessment policy applied, and Mr. Nelson explained it once again. Larry Branscomb asked about the application of the assessment policy for a duplex located on a corner lot, which the engineer answered. Dale Sutterf field asked if there is a possibility of combining this project with the proposed Logarto 3rd Addition improvements in an effort to make both larger projects and get lower unit prices. The city engineer stated that if the Logarto plat does get approved in the future, they could be combined if the developer wishes to have the city make the public improvements for the new Logarto 3rd Addition. That could result in slightly lower costs by making the project larger. Marge Thacher asked if there was a possibility of averaging the unit prices and eliminating the one-half unit price for corner lots. The city engineer indicated that was a policy that the City Council would have to decide. Al and Sandra Lam asked about the petition for the project and indi- cated that they were opposed to it. Mr. Mart Diana indicated he was opposed to the project. At this time the council members raised questions or comments concern- ing the project and generally indicated they wished to have the citizens have some additional time to think about the estimated cost of the project bef ore the council makes a decision on whether or not to order the improvement. This would also give the staff time to contact Mr. Loken to see whether or not the Logarto 3rd Addition is going to be presented to the council for consideration of final plat approval in the near future for the possible combining of the projects and poten- tial cost savings to each. 86.265 Motion was made by Sindt, seconded by Nelson to close the public hearing. Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Zaun, Sindt, Enright, Harvey, Nelson. Time: 9:00 p.m. 4 • CITY OF LAKEVILLE COUNCIL MEETING JULY 7, 1986 86.266 Motion was made by Nelson, seconded by Harvey to table the decision on whether to order or deny the Oak Shores Addition improvement project until the September 2, 1986, council meeting. Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Sindt, Enright, Harvey, Nelson , Zaun . At this time, Mayor Zaun opened the public hearing on the finishing of the asphalt streets in the Meadows West Addition. The city clerk attested that the legal notice had been mailed to 16 of the 26 lot owners involved in the Meadows West Addition. The city attorney recommended that the notice should go to all 26 lots and, therefore, it was a def ective notice and the hearing should be rescheduled. 86.267 Motion was made by Enright, seconded by Harvey to set a new public hearing on the proposed street improvements in the Meadows West Addition for August 4, 1986 at the regular city council meeting. Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Enright, Harvey, Nelson, Zaun, Sindt. At this time, Mr. Gary Stout and Mr. Robert Brantingham presented reports and slides on the central business district sub-area redevelop- ment planning for a phase one and phase two redevelopment project on the west side of Holyoke Avenue. Mr. Stout reviewed with the council three reports he had been retained to prepare on the market feasibil- ity, technical feasibility and executive summary for the version of the existing cement silos into either apartment or condominium units. Mr. Brantingham presented slides showing the recent Calhoun Isles silo conversion project in Minneapolis and the floor plans and schematics of how the Lakeville silos could be made into a multiple dwelling unit facility. The city clerk advised the council that the project would most likely proceed in two phases, with the first phase being the redevelopment of the property just west of Holyoke Avenue between Upper 208th Street and 208th Street, and including the old city water tower site, plus one small house and the Windsor Grain silos. The second phase would involve some property owned by Despatch Industries and the conversion of the cement silos. 5 • CITY OF LAKEVILLE COUNCIL MEETING . JULY 7, 1986 Mr. Stout indicated that it was absolutely essential that both phase one and phase two redevelopment be supported by the .full tax increments that would be derived from any new buildings or redevelopment of existing structures in the project area if the projects were to be financially feasible. The city clerk also pointed out that it was proposed that the city would support the project by including the old water tower property into a parking lot plan and divide the cost of the public plaza in the area of the existing 208th Street right-of-way from Holyoke to Howland Avenue. 86.268 Motion was made by Nelson, seconded by Harvey to request the Lakeville Housing and Redevelopment Authority to proceed to prepare tax increment financing plans and redevelopment plans for the phase one and phase two portions of the project and present them back to the city council for a public hearing as soon as possible.
