One of the stipulations of the n, approval was the relocation of Carrie Lane to connect Quincy and Jackson Streets. During that process, Medtronic simultaneously closed on the seven homes to effectuate the relocation of Came Lane. After the City conveyed the property for Phase 1 to Medtronic, it was brought to the City's attention by the title company that there were several old easements along those lot lines of the seven homes that were acquired. Ms. Dacy stated the purpose of this vacation request is to vacate the drainage and utility easements. There are three easement locations across Block 5 and Block 6, and there is the sanitary sewer easement that is proposed to be vacated. The sewer easement is in the northeast comer of the site at the Highway 65 intersection that is proposed to be vacated as well. Ms. Dacy stated that this application vacates the old easement, and new easements are to be recorded on the plat that would match and ove�iay the utility construction. Staff is recommending approval to the City Council subject to the following stipulations: 1. Medtronic shall dedicate a 20-foot easement in a north/south alignment across Outlet C between Quincy Street and Medtronic Parkway and Jackson Street and Medtronic Parkway. 2.

Mullin, President of the Springbrook Nature Center Foundation Board of Directors, stated that he would like to acknowledge Siah St. Clair and Missy Daniels for their hard work in preparing the Nature Center information. Siah St. Clair and Missy ^ Daniels are City staff who are also both on the Springbrook Nature Center Foundation. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 5 Mr. Mullin stated that this presentation would be about the Nature Center and, more � specifically, about a project undertaken some months ago to develop a master plan for the area surrounding the building and the entrance to the Nature Center. They are currently calling this work Project #2025 and the motto is `Timeless Nature Working". The project is listed as one of the years 2000 goals for the Recreation and Natural Resources Center. The Nature Center has been in operation for fully half of the City of Fridley's 50 years. Mr. Mullin stated that he has spent countless hours talking with Siah St. Clair about the innovative programming he has done and the impact on his staff and participants in those programs. Mr. St. Clair has talked about the respect that other naturalists and center directors have for this facility, and he believes that it is important that everybody understands and appreciates what a gem the City has in the Springbrook Nature Center. Mr. Mullin stated that Springbrook Nature Center is an amenity which brings honor and recognition to Fridley. Every citizen should be very proud of it. For example, three years ago in the reader survey, Springbrook Nature Center was voted the favorite park in the State by readers in the Minnesota Parent magazine. Two years ago, Springbrook Nature Center was listed as one of the 13 hot spots for watching wildlife in the Twin Cities and was featured on the cover of the DNR's magazine. The Star Tribune wrote that Springbrook Nature Center was listed as one of the must-see places to take friends and relatives in the Twin Cities. In an article on Real Estate in the Minnesota St. Paul �"'� magazine, Springbrook Nature Center was listed as the primary reason to purchase a home in Fridley. Recently, a Springbrook Youth Worker and the Springbrook Youth Supervisor in 1998 received the Govemor's award for Outstanding Youth Supervisor of the Year. Mr. Mullin stated that Springbrook Nature Center does have a very high community usage and approval. In the City of Fridley, nine percent (9%) of the people that responded to a survey responded that they went to the Springbrook Nature Center in the last year. The average use per person was once a month. Eighty-three percent (83%) of the residents stated that they approved of the continuous use of the Nature Center. In the vision meetings that were part of the Comprehensive Plan process, participants named Springbrook Nature Center as their favorite place to visit in the City more than any other place. Usage is now approaching 200,000 visitations per year. Attendance to the City-wide fall and spring festivals is so large, it gets to be nearly unmanageable with the current facilities and staff. The Halloween celebration this year hosted over 1,500 people. Mr. Mullin stated that the Nature Center is being used to meet the health, wellness, spiritual, and psychological needs of individuals and groups within the community. This is something they had not anticipated and they are only recently becoming aware of it. For example, there is a wellness walk program with the Cardiovascular Unit at Mercy Hospital. They are working on a visualization program with the Cancer Unit at Unity ,� Hospital for patients and their families. Churches hold services at the park. Recently, Rotary Intemational held a meeting there simply to be in a natural environment. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 6 Employees from nearby businesses use the park for walking and recreation and stress reduction. � Mr. Mullin stated that several months ago, they gave a party for Siah St. Clair celebrating his 20 years of programming at Springbrook. During the party, they heard many stories about the impact of the Nature Center psychologically and spiritually. Young people who were part of the volunteer program reported how the time they spent there kept them out of trouble and how it guided many of them into careers relating to a natural environment. A report by the Dallas Police Department stated that every $1.00 spent on youth recreation programs saved them $3.00 spent on Police personnel dealing with problem children. The volunteer program had a similar effect in Fridley. Recently they leamed that the Coon Rapids Medical Center sponsors an annual walk in Springbrook for people who have suffered a fetal loss to heal that tragic experience. The Minnesota Cochlea Implant Club has recently asked to conduct a walk for its members to identify and discuss sounds they have never before heard. Mr. Mullin stated that the Nature Center should be all it can be to meet the needs and demands being placed on it. The City Manager observed that he would like to see more done to the Nature Center to bring recognition to Fridley. More requests are being made by the citizens to have memorial services and weddings in the park. When their requests are rejected, they go ahead anyway. These requests are rejected only because of lack of staff at the facility. The success of social events since the Wine Usage permit has demonstrated its value for that type of community celebration. - Requests are being made by local organizations for a conference center for day �—, meetings in the pleasant natural surroundings of the Nature Center. Mr. Mullin stated that the reduction of the natural environment around the Nature Center is causing the increasing numbers of visitations. The recognition of non-native species of plants are invading the Nature Center and threatening, in time, to destroy all of the native species. Currentty, they are part of a$250,000 program to eradicate certain non- native plants. This is a recognition of how serious specialists in this field of study believe this problem could be. The recognition of water draining from upstream communities is causing massive destruction of water plants, siltation, and destruction of nesting patt'ems of the birds in the park. They are currently part of a study to determine the extent and the consequences of this water flow problem. Corrective action will surely be needed in the future. Mr. Mullin stated a committee has been formed to deal with these issues. They invited City Council members, Parks and Recreation Commission, Planning Commission, Foundation members, City employees, and residents of the larger community who might have an interest. Twenty people attended the first meeting. These included City employees, marketing people, health care managers, fitness experts, master gardeners, graduate students in landscape architecture, architects, business people, etc. The only boundary set for the meeting was that they consider the seven acres surrounding the entrance and the history center in dealing with their issues. Their intention is to make the entrance area attractive for these uses, thus reducing the use of the parks interior, � reserving it for wildlife and the observation of wildlife. The first effort was to review and rewrite the vision statement for the entrance project. The vision statement is as follows: PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 7 "To be an inviting passage into and out of timeless nature. Of sharing a perFect place '� for people, a place of celebrations of life, a retreat to nurture self, a living statement of the power of nature to nurture the human spirit, a place to reflect on the integrity of nature and the natural processes, and a place to leam about nature and the natural processes." Mr. Mullin stated that they rewrote the mission statement as follows: `The mission of the Springbrook Nature Center is to preserve the integrity of, and enable access to the natural resource base, in order to; (1) provide opportunities for the community to enjoy Springbrook Nature Center and to leam about broad environmental concepts and values,( 2) provide opportunities for nurturing the human spirit." Mr. Mullin stated this mission will be accomplished by fulfilling their objectives and design specifications for the project that professionals could use as a basis for an abstract design. They did this by systematically considering each of the vision statements and asking a few questions. The ideas were then synthesized into eight general principals and 20 specific principals. Mr. Mullin stated that the current goals include: 1. Developing a plan to the point where the concept is clear, the phases are identified, and the rough spots are eliminated 2. Identifying the sources of revenue for the plan �"� 3. Identifying the relationships with all other programs which currently are affecting the Nature Center or will in the near future, and communicating this information to City govemment, potential funding sources, and the public. Mr. Mullin stated they have now divided into subcommittees to accomplish the goals. One is the Design Committee to carry out the design. Some of this work has been done by the graduate students that were on the committee as part of their graduate project to meet their graduate requirements. The timing was premature and some of the work was less penetrating. The Design Committee strongly endorses the bulk of their work, which included an inventory of the Nature Center's ecosystems and a master plan for the restoration and management. The second part of their work included some specific design ideas for the entry area. They suggested a well-defined portal through which the public would pass creating a definite sense of having entered a special place, developing the parking area to strengthen that sense and instill a sense of invitation. Mr. Mullin stated that upon arrival to the building, there would be a station for groups that are disembarking their vehicles prior to entering the grounds. Plans for the grounds include an area between the parking lot and the building to draw the visitors in while being sufficiently open to create the sense and the reality of being secure. A series of rings of various size and designs are used to facilitate the needs of groups as small as one or two people, and as large as 60 people for ceremonies and other needs to gather. A building expansion which would be independent of the foundation of the current ,,-., structure would wrap around it with the spaces connected to accommodate the needs � expressed by organization in the area for day conferences. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 8 Mr. Mullin stated that the second committee is the Communication Committee. They have to tell the story of what they are doing, and to identify sources of funds and secure � those funds. Mr. Mullin stated they would welcome help and guidance in making this plan for the seven acre entrance area, and the Nature Center comprehensive plan, part of the Fridley Comprehensive Plan. The work is being done under the direction and cooperation with City staff. They will present the plan to the Planning Commission when it is finished and will be pleased to keep everyone informed on an interim basis if requested. Siah St. Clair is also available at the Nature Center to discuss any ideas of how to help meet the needs of Fridley residents. Ms. Savage asked if the land that was mentioned for the additions was land that was already owned by the Nature Center. Mr. Mullin stated that is correct. It is not really additions, it is development of the existing land and would likely change in a positive area the area which composes the parking lot and the building, and space around the building. They hope to make it more attractive and friendly to the people without impacting anything that goes beyond that space. Mr. Mullin stated that the work that the graduate students did included the whole Nature Center and is quite extensive and detailed. It does highlight the fact that the park - cannot be left to just stand out there, because it is being destroyed. It mentions things ,—� such as the absence of cattails which are a very important part of the ecosystem. Ms. Savage stated that the purpose of the Nature Center committee was informational only. The Planning Commission and City of Fridley would not take action on any issues until the plan is actually submitted. Ms. Dacy stated that tonight's meeting is informational only at this time. In the future, it is up to the Planning Commission and the City Council to decide how detailed the comprehensive plan should be. The study and analysis and findings could be submitted as an appendix that could be formerly adopted. The text could refer to a study and a date, or there could be general policies and goals or strategies. In general, the Nature Center is a favorite place and the plan will try to achieve connection into the favorite places. Mr. Sielaff asked if there would be a commercial component and have meeting rooms available and if there are revenue-generating options. Mr. Mullin stated that Mr. St. Clair's mission is to bring in a certain amount of revenue each year. When you are working with a facility that is designed to be free, it is difficult to extract revenue from its operation. By embracing the community and the needs that they have, and designing a facility with that in mind, they have the idea that they definitely would be charged for its use. That would increase the revenue for Mr. St. ^ Clair's department. There may be a charge for the use of the facility. It would not be their intention that this would be free for the City, but rather that the City, and the PLANrTING CONIMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 9 community-at-large, would help bear the cost while they try to identify where the various � sources of revenue would come in. They would like to be brought into the budgeting process. Mr. Oquist asked Mr. Mullin if they are thinking of renting the community rooms to local businesses for their requests. Mr. Mullin stated that they are thinking of doing that. Mr. Oquist asked Mr. Mullin if he has had any input ftom the northem communities that have the drainage into the Nature Center. Mr. Mullin stated that that is part of the watershed district. Mr. St. Clair has been working with the City engineers of various communities upstream. They are currently part of a water quality study to establish the parameters which make up the water problem. Once the parameter is established for the extent of degradation and how to define how it would be restored, somebody will have to deal with this problem. The City Manager has directed them to take those problems into account as they develop their project. Mr. Sielaff asked if the water quality portion would be part of the Comprehensive Plan for Fridley. ,�.� Mr. St. Clair stated that it would be part of the Comprehensive Plan. One of the positive ' things that resufted from the meetings is the master plan that the graduate students put together. As they look at redoing the entrance area, they looking at the next 25 years to ensure how the Nature Center can senre the public in the best way. Part of that is doing the watershed project. They are working with the neighboring communities to improve the water quality because it is impossible for the Nature Center to do it alone. Mr. Sielaff stated that it should be the neighboring communities' comprehensive plan also. Mr. Kondrick stated that since so many people use the Nature Center, it is important to find ways to protect what they have. Mr. Oquist stated that part of the communication that the committee could look at is that it is not only Fridley residents but also neighboring communities that have responsibilities for the Nature Center as well. Mr. St. Clair stated that it would be really helpful to have City govemment involved in that process. There is no doubt about the fact that the neighboring cities use the Nature Center extensively. In a sense of faimess, their participation would be important. Mr. Sielaff asked Ms. Dacy if the Planning Commission could make a recommendation to include this in part of the Comprehensive Plan. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 10 Ms. Dacy stated that option is in the future. There is more work to be completed, and when it is appropriate, it could be presented to the Planning Commission for a ^ recommendation. The Park & Recreation Commission may want to evaluate it as well. Mr. Mullin stated their efforts to communicate to the larger community and potential funding sources will be enhanced by official support from people such as the Planning Commission. Mr. Saba stated that the Planning Commission owes it to the community-at-large to keep it as part of the general concept of the Comprehensive Plan. They need to enhance the green spaces. This is also part of improving the park system. The Nature Center is a gem that should be protected and enhanced to ensure that 25 years from now our children and grandchildren can have the same enjoyment that they have had. Mr. Oquist stated that he feels staff could keep the pages open as they go through the Comprehensive Plan for the Nature Center plan. Ms. Dacy stated that, in general, the concepts talked about tonight will be in the Comprehensive Plan. There are many aspects of the Nature Center study that deserve to be separate (possibly as an appendix), rather than incorporated into the plan text itself. Staff will keep the Planning Commission updated regarding the Committee's progress and then possibly look at an appendix approach. Mr. Oquist stated that that is a good idea to keep it as an appendix so they do not lose ;-� some of the plan. Ms. Dacy stated that some of the design presented for the Nature Center could be something they could replicate in redevelopment projects. Mr. Sielaff stated he agrees that there is more work to be done. He just wants to make sure that there is a place for this in the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Mullin stated that they are working with Mr. Kirk of the Parks and Recreation Department and the City Manager, Mr. Bums, to ensure that it will be incorporated into that process. Missy Daniels, Code Enforcement Officer, is also working on it. Mr. Oquist stated that is also part of the Planning Commission's responsibility to ensure that it is part of the Comprehensive Plan. Ms. Savage stated that the Planning Commission is very favorably inclined toward the project. Mr. Mullin stated that he greatly appreciates that. Ms. Savage stated that hopefully the people watching on television would be in support of the plan. She wanted to encourage anyone to contact Springbrook Nature Center or the City with any comments they have. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETIl�TG, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 11 Mr. Mullin stated that they do feel there is a powerfui story to tell about the Nature r—� Center. It is difficult to tell, and they are going to try to change that and increase awareness of the tremendous asset of the Nature Center. Ms. Savage stated that all of the members of the Planning Commission recognize that fact and it is mentioned by many Fridley residents as being a very important part of Fridley. Mr. Mullin thanked the Planning Commission for their time and support. Ms. Savage thanked Mr. Mullin for the presentation. 8. NORTHSTAR CORRIDOR DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY (NCDA) PRESENTATION BY TIM YANTOS: � Ms. Dacy stated that Mr. Yantos was going to present an overview of the commuter rail project being proposed along the existing rail lines through Fridley. Mr. Yantos stated that he works for Anoka County and is also Director of the NCDA. Mr. Yantos stated that the Northstar Comdor runs from the City of St. Cloud through Anoka County through Minneapolis. It is a major transportation comdor for people and goods through Highway 10 and through Highway 47 through the City of Fridley, _ ^ Columbia Heights to downtown Minneapolis. It does include the Burlington Northem/ ' Santa Fe Railroad. Mr. Yantos stated that the Corridor is the fastest growing corridor in the State of Minnesota and one of the fastest growing in the entire country. MnDOT looked at sixteen different commuter rail corridors and ranked this number one. It includes both the urban areas of St. Cloud and Minneapolis suburban and rural areas in between. It ranks the economic and educational centers of the University of Minnesota and the various Universities in St. Cloud. Metropolitan Council and the St. Cloud area Planning organization and their metro transit approve of this development. Mr. Yantos stated the NCDA has one goal: to meet the future transportation needs of this corridor. In the metro area over the next 20 years, population will increase to another 650,000 people. Sherbume County will grow 72%; St. Cloud, fifty-percent 50%; Becker County, 402%; Elk River, 232%. Most of the increase in road traffic will come down Highway 10 and Highway 47, because there are no plan improvements in MnDOT's improvement program for the next 20 years. All the existing roads will continue to exist, and all of the traffic from the new population growth will continue to use these same roads. Mr. Yantos stated that they are looking at transportation altematives and how to improve them in major investment studies. '�� Mr. Yantos stated that commuter rail is different than light rail because it uses existing tracks and would use the existing Burlington Northem/Santa Fe Railroad tracks. The PLANNING CONIlVIISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 12 length is longer than light rail, usually 30 miles in length, but this plan would be a total of 80 miles. The stations are about five miles apart where the light rail is usually less than !"'`� one. It moves people to work and other activities primarily in the morriing and evening. There may be some midday service where the light rail continues to go all day long. The trains used for commuter rail would be diesel powered. The vehicles are double- deckers and would hold about 160 people per vehicle. A train would range between three and four vehicles. They are looking at different station sites to use. The service they are looking at right now would be 18 trains per day, 80 miles long, nine trains in the moming and nine trains in the evening. They plan to open up in late 2003. Mr. Yantos stated that the stations being proposed includes one in the City of Fridley on 61 St Street. This is the largest of ridership stations with over 2�000 riders per day planned. They do plan to connect to the Hiawatha Corridor which is the light rail. That connection would happen behind the Target Center. People would be able to move from the City of Fridley to the airport, from the University of Minnesota to St. Cloud, from Elk River to the Mall of America. People will be able to move very quickly with the linkage from commuter rail to light rail. Mr. Yantos stated the station is by the existing rail tracks. The commuter rail would come in and you would be able to walk across the platForm and take the light rail. The bus distribution center would also pick up riders at the station. The ridership projected for opening is about 2,000,000 trips per year, 8,000 trips per day. Estimated capital cost in 2003 numbers is $223,000,000. The operating cost is $8,500,000. Mr. Yantos stated they did a survey recently explaining what the commuter rail was and asked people if they thought it was a good idea. It was surprising that 73% stated that it was a good idea. Most asked how soon they could ride it. They also have a good sense that a commuter rail line would be for commuters working in downtown Minneapolis, or people who are living downtown and working in the suburbs. People stated in the sunrey that they would use it for various reasons other than only for commuting. Mr. Yantos stated the Burlington Northem/Santa Fe is a willing partner, and they are negotiating with them. They are going to want to have some improvements to the rail line, but the difference in cost with commuter rail which is $223,000,000 and light rail which is $548,000,000 is that the Burlington Northem/Santa Fe has already spent millions of dollars on the infrastructure. The rails are in place and you can run 80 miles per hour on it. Mr. Yantos stated they have not selected business information yet, but Medtronic wrote a letter to the Govemor and to the Chair of the NCDA stating that one of the reasons why they located their headquarters in Fridley is because of the potential for commuter rail. Many people who live in the southem communities would like to get on the light rail and then transfer to the commuter rail. Their vans would pick them up at the station and then bring them to Medtronic. � � PLANNING CONIlVIISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 13 Mr. Yantos stated Senator Grams is a tremendous supporter in the Senate getting the � necessary funding. Congressman Oberstar and Martin Sabo are in the top position in the transportation committees and also support this. Mr. Yantos stated that into the end of 1999, they are completing their major investment study and are well into their environmental impact. They plan to go in early January to the Federal Transit Administration to ask them permission to go into preliminary engineering. They are able to move along so quickly because there is little construction compared to light rail. They need to build stations and buy vehicles and upgrade the tracks. They do plan to start construction on a few stations next summer. Mr. Yantos asked the Planning Commission if they had any questions. Mr. Kondrick asked where the station was located in Fridley. Mr. Yantos stated that it would be located at 61St Street right after East River Road adjacent to the Burlington Northem/Santa Fe tracks. Mr. Oquist stated it is a great plan, but he is a little surprised that the commuter rail is not being constructed around I-94 through Monticello to St. Cloud because that seems to be where the real population growth is. Mr. Yantos stated they have looked at that issue, but the railroad tracks are in this area. - � The projections for growth are immense in the proposed area and they are trying to make the infrastructure available to as wide an area they can, including the I-94 area. Mr. Saba asked what kind of fee structure they would have for cost. Mr. Yantos stated they are talking about a seamless system. Weekly or monthly passes could be used on the light rail and bus service also. The cost has not been decided yet. The cost is being looked at per ride. From Elk River, it is $4 in, from Fridley possibly $1.75 or $1.50. He would have to take a good Iook at it to see exactly what it is. Mr. Saba asked Mr. Yantos if the fee structure can support its annual cost. Mr. Yantos stated it would not support its annual cost similar to all of the transportation features across the country. There would be about a 40% retum, which is good for a transportation system. Mr. Sielaff asked if there would be four vehicles going at a time. Mr. Yantos stated that there would be three and four car trains depending on the time. Each car holds 150-160 people. Ms. Savage asked if these trains would be brand new and what other cities are using ,.� commuter rail. PLANNING CONIl�IISSION MEETING, NOVEMBER 17, 1999 PAGE 14 Mr. Yantos stated that they would be new. Chicago, Dallas, Seattle, and many of the eastem cities have commuter rail. �, Mr. Oquist asked if this would tie in with light rail so they would come in at the same time. Mr. Yantos stated they are tied in together so people would take the light rail directly from the commuter rail. All of the stations would provide parking space. Mr. Sielaff asked if the funding is tied to the funding of light rail. Mr. Yantos stated that it is separate and if light rail does not go ahead, this will still go. Mr. Sielaff asked if the funding was all secured for this. Mr. Yantos stated that it was not. They have about $20,000,000 so far. This would go for planning and station construction next year. The rest of the funding would be secured from the three congressional people mentioned earlier and from their own state people. Ms. Savage asked if Senator Wellstone supported this. Mr. Yantos stated that Senator Wellstone is a big supporter but is not on the - transportation committees for funding approval. n Mr. Sielaff asked if the commuter rail would start out with nine cars. Mr. Yantos stated that nine trains would start at first, then more additions of cars and perhaps more trains. Mr. Kondrick asked how they would work the logistics of all of the freight trains. Mr. Yantos stated that there are between 40 and 60 trains per day. Burlington Northern/Santa Fe operates other systems like this in other cities. It is a matter of scheduling.
