C.RECOIIMENDATIONS FOR I/.I'IDSPREADING
Landspreading of sludge for utilization as a fertilizer and soil
conditioner is considered in mosE cases to be preferable to disposal
oriented practices such as landfilling, and landspreading should be
practiced wherever feasibte. The following recomnendations indicate
application site location factors, aPplication rates and management
practices which provide a feasible opportunity for landspreading of

2. Storage of Sludge
- a. The need for, type, and size of sludge storage facilities should
be evaluaLed on a case-by-case basis. Storage facilities should
be included in any landspreading program where year-round appli-
cation may be restricted by such things as soil condiLions,
topography, road weight restrictions, snow depths, rrret periods,
cropping seasons, or periods of conflicting land use.
b. Storage facility loeation and design should consider geologic
and hydrologic conditions, prevailing winds, vegetative barriers,
- topography, residence locations, leachaEe and runoff generation,
and facility operation and maintenance.
- c. Storage facilities should not be located within a 100 year flood
p1ain.
d. Permanent open storage facilities should be at least 1/4 mile
- from occupied residences and areas of concentrated human acti-
vity and should be enclosed by adequate fencing and access
gates equipPed with locks.
> e. Storage facilities should be designed such that the maximum
seepage loss is less than 500 gallons/acrelday (0.018 inches
per d.y). Facility design should consider removal of solids
from the facility and integrity of the seal '
b f. Facilities should be diked as necessary to retain sludge and
divert extraneous surface runoff '

L b. Separation from surface water (including streams and waterrvays)
_ (1) Sludge should not be surface applied within a lO-year
floodplain or within any wetland area.
L (2) Care shall be taken to prevent direct runoff into any
drainage ditch or waterway.
(3) Where sludge is injected or inrnediately incorporated into
the soil, or where the site is enclosed by adequate
diking to retain runoff and sediment, the recommended
L seParation from surface water is 100 feet -
(4) Where sludge is applied by pressurized sPray, the rninimum
recommended separation from surface water is 300 feet.
_ (5) Where sludge is surface applied by tank truck, wagon or
similar method, the recommended seParation from surface
waters is given in Table III.
-10
(4) Application sites should be tested to determine specific
soil characteristics. Generally, land receiving sludge
should be divided into areas not exceeding 40 acres for
composite sampling and testing. Areas differing in soil
type, crop yield and management practices should be
sampled separately. For each designated samPling area,
individual samples should be Laken to a depth of one
foot from about 10 locations, the samples placed in a
clean container, mixed together, and a sample of the
composite soil taken for analysis.
(5) Required soil test data is listed in Table IV.

6. Site Usage Agreements
a. The municipalicy is responsible to aehieve proper sludge disposal'
Reliable access to and proper management of application sites
are vital factors in any successful landspreading Program'
Therefore, appropriate agreements between application site owners
and the municipality should be made to reasonably ensure reliable
access and site management plans. Wherever such agreements are

a.Nitrogen Limitations. The rate of sLudge applied per year mlrst
be controlled so as to avoid exeess nitrogen additions and the
resulting potential for nitrogen pollution of ground water.
Annual limitations based on nitrogen additions are described
below:
(1) Existing treatment facilities - calculations in this
section to determine annual application rates based on
available nitrogen additions need not be performed if
srudge application rates do not exceed five tons of
solids per acre per year. Rates greater than five tons
of solids per acre per year may be used if the calcula-
tions in this section are perfo::ured and indicate such
rates would be acceptable.
(2) New and upgraded facilities - Design application rates
should be calculated in accordance with the following
discussion or other methods acceptable to the Director.
Design application rates must consider appropriate
available nitrogen levels for various crops, yields and
soils and the amount of available nitrogen supplied by
the sludge and any other added nitrogen containing
materials.

I'lhere application siEes are used in consecutive
years, carryover nitrogen from sludge applied the
previous year must be subtracted from the maximum
allowable nitrogen level (Tables V or VI) to deter-
mine ongoing application rates. An approximation
of carryover nitrogen from sludge applied the
previous year is as follows:
Carryover N (lbs./acre) =
(7" organic sludge N) x (tons sludge solids /acre)
Available nitrogen added in fertilizers or animal
manures must be subtracted from the maximum allowable
nitrogen level (Tables V or VII) Lo determine sludge
application rates.
The amount of available nitrogen added with sludge
is dependent uPon type of stabilization, application

b.Heavy Metal Limitations. The total quantity of sludge applied
to a site over the duration of site usage should be limited to
prevent excessive heavy metal accumulation in the soil and sub-
sequent potential plant and food chain toxicity.
(1) The metals of greatest concern for most sludges are
cadmium, zinc, copper, nickel and lead. The recormnended
total cr:mulative addition of these metals to agricultural
land are found in Table VIII.

No more than two pounds of cadmium should be applied per
acre Per year.
Sludge application Eo non-dedicated agricultural sites
should be terminated when the sum addition of any one
metal equals the recommended total for that particular
metal and soi1. Meta1 additions above those levels
listed in Table VIII or above two pounds of cadmium
per acre per year will require croP tissue monitoring
and specific approval of the Director.
-18
c.
'(
(d) A running total or sumnation of the pounds of each
metal applied from sludge applications should be
kept and when the sum addition of any one metal
equals Ehe total addition limit for that metal,
sludge applications should be ceased.
(e) Accurate records must be kept for each site on the
quantity of sludge applied per year and cumulatively,
and the quantity of metals applied per year and
cumulatively.
Persistent Organic Limitations. In some instances persistent
organics may be for":nd in s ludges at concentrations to be of
concern for vegetative and food chain toxicity and ground water
quality. There currently is insufficient data to set specific
criteria for allowable concenErations in sludge or for annual or
curmrlative additions of sludge-borne persistent organics. There
is, however, enough data to conelude that special precautions,
site management, and monitoring may be necessary where sludges
are found Lo contain significant concentrations of persisEent
organics. The specific precautions and monitoring necessary for
such projects will have to be determined on a case-by-case basis.
Soluble Salt Limitations
(I) Sludge application should be suspended whenever the elec-
trical conductivity of a saturation extracE of site soil
exceeds 4 millimhos/cm (soluble salt test).
(2) Long term application of sludges high in sodium can cause
a deterioration of soil structure and result in increased
erosion and runoff. The Director should be notified if

necessary for a crop to be grown and appropriately
harvested each year. If crops are not harvested
each year, application rates should be restricted
to levels consistent with Table VI.
Sludges having concentrations exceeding 1000 mg/kg
1ead, 25 mg/kg cadmium, 10 mg/kg mercury or 5 mg/kg
total PCB's should noE be applied on forage crops
or pastures where surface contamination of the
foliage and direct ingestion by feeding animals is
possible. This is especially important for dairy
cattle. An allowable exception to this criteria is
that the above sludges may be applied on forage
crops during the period immediately following cut-
ting and harvest when there is minimal vegetative
surface area. Application under this exception
should be made within seven days of forage cutting.
Harvesting of forage crops or grazLng of pastures
should be delayed for at least two weeks following
application.
Sludge amended soils should generally not be used
for growth of leafy vegetables to be consumed by
humans unless crop tissue analyses indicate such
practices are accePtable. This is especially
pertinent during the year the sludge was applied
and for sludges having cadmium concentrations
greaEer than 25 rl.glkg.

Nitrogen Limitations. Annual sludge application rates should
be limited such that available nitrogen additions are consistent
with Table vr and section c.7.a., or as otherwise specifically
approved by the Director.
Heawy Metal Limitations. The totar quanriEy of sludge appLied
to non-dedicated, non-agricultural sites over the duration of
site usage should be limited such that the total cumulative
addition of metals is limited to levels provided in Table VIII.
The acceptability of metal additions above those levels must
be determined on a case-by-case basis and have the specific
approval of the Director.
Further Limitations
(f) Limitations for application of sludges containing signi-
ficant concentrations of persistent organics must be
determined on a case-by-case basis.
c.

-those levels provided in Table VIII and Section C.7.b. will
- necessitate site monitorirg, including but not limited to,
appropriate vegetative tissue analysis, soil analysis, and
- leachate and/or ground water analysis.
c. Further Limitations
(1) Limitations for application of sludges containing signi-
ficant concentrations of persistent organics must be
determined on a case-by-case basis.
- (2) Soluble Salts - See Section C.8. c.(2).
c. Management Practices
(1) Runoff Control - See Section C.7.e.(1)
- (2) pH Control. The soil pH of dedicated application sites
should be maintained above 6.5 throughout the application
prograur and thereafter as long as necessary to ensure
protection of ground water and soil and vegetative
resources consistent with future land uses.
- (3) Vegetafion. An appropriaEe vegetative cover should be
established and maintained on all dedicated sites.
(4) Public Access. Access to dedicated sites should be
restricted by a fence or other appropriate means.
e. MoniLoring Requirements
(1) See Section C.7.f .
(2) Monitoring of leachate and/or ground water and appropriate
vegetative tissues is necessary for dedicated application
sites. The specific Program must be determined on a case-
by-case basis.

3. Determination of Annual Application Rates Based on Nitrogen
Addition
a. Given:
(1) Anaerobically digested sludge with following composition:
organic nitrogen 3.0%, arnrnonium nitrogen 2.0%.
(2) Surface application by tank truck.
(3) Soil type is medium texture.
(4) Corn crop with L25 bushel/acre expecred yie1d.
(5) Site received 5 tons sludge solids/acre last year.
b. Solution:
(1) Determine maximum allowable available nitrogen leve1 for
medium texLure soil and L25 bushel/acre corn.
(a) Using Table V answer is 180 lbs/acre.
(2) Derive adjusted available soil nitrogen level by deter-
mining and subtracting carryover nitrogen from last year's
sludge application (C.7 .a. (2)(c)) .
(a) Carryover nitrogen = (7. organic nitrogen) x
(tons solids I acre)
= 3.0 x 5
= 15 lbs/acre
(b) 180 lbs/acre - 15 lbs/acre = 165 lbs/acre
(3) Determine the available nitrogen in the sludge (Tab1e VII).
(a) For digested sludge and surface application, the
proper formula is:
(7. organic-N x 4) + (% ammonia-N x f0) = lbs
available N/ton
(3.0 x 4) + (2.0 x l0) = lbs available N/ton
L2 + 20 = 32 lbs available N/ton

IVIEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Don Ashworth, City Manager
DATE: June l, 1981
SUBJ: 1981 Bond Sale, Authorization to CalI for Bids
The municipal bond market is lousy. The market is bad in terms ofa historical review of typical rates paid by governmental agencies.From a bond buyers standpoint, a 10L or 10.8t yierd on a tax-exemptnote is very favorable and, without question, the City can seIl theproposed bond issue. The question is basicarly one of guessing
when or if the market will drop back to pre--1980 levers.
Bob sander or Andy Merry will be present from Juran and Moody topresent their cash-flow analysis as well as to answer questions ofthe City Council. Similar to other runs prepared, the revenues shownonly include the present valuations within the district as well as theadditional revenue being produced by known additions to the district,i.e. Holiday Station, new fnstant Web facility, medical facility. Assuch, it assumes no growth within this area over the next 15-yearperiod which, admittedly, is more than conservative.
Don Ri-ngrose and Arjis Pakalns will be present from BRW to discussthe tentatj-ve work schedule associated with the redevelopment project.This flow chart should, again, be seen as the best or "desirable"time schedule to see the redevelopment work occur in a timely fashion.Eor example, should Kraus-Anderson and,/or Bloomberg Companies fail topresent their financing commitments prior to the end of 1981, theentire schedule would be moved back. Similar1y, should the Attorney'soffice fail to initiate and complete relocations as proposed, the entire
schedule will move back; etc.
In relating initial bonding to the project timetable (flow chart) it
becomes obvious that monies will be needed to cash-out Instant Web
as well as to provide monies for earnest-money contracts with R5-viera,
Mobil, and Huber. Riviera and Mobil must be finalized prior to Octoberto alIow:
1) . Preparation of purchase/rebuild
1981.
2l Preparation of building and site
agreements prior to October,

RE: Expiration of HRA Commissioner's Term of Office
According to HRA records, commissioner Mike Niemeyer's termon the HRA expires as of May 31, 1981.
Ivlinnesota Statute 462.425 (subdivision 6) provides that appoint-ments to fill vacancies on a Municipal HRA are to be made by theMayor, with the approval of the City Council. Commissioners areappointed for fi-ve-year terms under this provision.
At a recent Council meeting, the City Council discussed the ideaof appointing a member of ihe City iouncil to fill the next vacancyon the HRA. state Law does permit such an appointment, and alsoprovi-des that when a member of the city council is appointed tothe HRA, the Council may set the term of office of the commissionerto coincide with his'term of office as a Council member.
Appointment or reappointment to fill this vacancy should be consideredby the City Council on June L, 1981 in order to avoid having a "gap"in the membership of the HRA.

Several weeks ago a feasibility study was authorized to bring
the utilities up to the club building. Preliminary cost figures
were presented and the Legion rejected the high costs. subsequently,
the Legion group suggested that the city only bring the utilities
across Trunk Highway No. 5 to their property line. They will then
connect via long services presumably with their use of some volunteer
labor. Presented herein is the option just described'
SanitarY Sewer:
sanitary sewer service is best described by attached Drawing
No. LLL87-2. The closest point where service is available is
located on the north side of Trunk Highway No' 5 adjacent to the
Hanus Building. This is an existing ten-inch sewer'

for sewer service and the availability of the closest sewer to
connect to often vary the benefitting service area from the water-
shed boundary. In other words, if the Sinnen Property were totally
developed at one time, they would likely obtain their sehrer service
from the south (Lake Ann Interceptor). If the portion adjacent to
Trunk Highway No. 5 were developed initially, they would likeIy
obtain sewer service from the north via the subject sewer. This
presents a choice as to the assessment question, which is presented
to the Council to consider-
Water Service:
Water service is proposed as described by Drawing No. 11187-2.
The closest existing water service is also available from the north
side of Trunk Highway No. 5 near the Hanus Building' The proposed
improvement simply crosses Trunk Highway No. 5 with an eight-inch
main and terminates. The same option for assessment of the sinnen
property as well as the Legion site exists as presented for the
sanitary sewer.
we have examined the matter of trunk watermains with the
possibility of making the subject main crossing of Trunk Highway No' 5
a trunk crossing. The improvements proposed herein are clearly
lateral facilities with local adjacent benefit only'
Estimated Costs @
The total estimated costs for the improvements presented herein
are $37,026. This does not include trunk and sAc charges'
ECHOELL A, MAE]SON.INC.
City of Chanhassen
c/o Mr. BiII Monk, CitY Engineer
Page Six May 29, 198I
We are presenting two assessment options for consideration.
one option would be to assess the entire cost of $37,026 to the
Legion site. The second option would be to assess the project cost
on an area basis to the Legion site plus the portion of the Sinnen
site indicated on Drawing No. 11187-2. The second option is
summarized as follows:

Conclusions:
We have presented herein a feasibility study that hopefully
responds to the Legion CIub's wishes. The costs of crossing Trunk
Highway No. 5 are high due to its width in that vicinity. The
method presented herein of serving the Legion site is clearly the
simplest and least expensive at this time'
In terms of the assessment question, we have presented two
options. One method is to assess the entire project cost to the
Legion site. The other option is to assess the Legion plus the
portion of the sinnen property above approximately the 954 contour'
We suggest the Councit weigh the question of the ability to sustain
the assessment on the Sinnen site before proceeding'

SUBJ: Carver Beach Drainage (Oien property)
A written complaint has been received from steven and BonnieOien concerning erosion on their property at 6780 Lotus Trai1.Eierd inspection has determined that the erosion is caused byoverland drainage from areas to the west in carver BeachErosion on the subject property is becoming severe and thepotential for damage to structures in the area does exist.A drainage problem has existed in this area for quite some timebut has become more serious with the constructi.on of the homeson Lotus Trial.
Because of the severity of the problem and the time constraintsof the improvement process. r recommend a feasibility study beundertaken immediately to determine the scope and cost ofrequired construction as well as the assessable area. At the
same time, Iega1 counsel should investigate the liability andresponsibility of the City, develop€r, and present owner in regardsto this situation.
This office will continue to review temporary methods of abating
the erosion. - ,,

r am surprised to learn that wind.sor Development corporation knowsnothing of James Hauptman as he has taken out several buildinj permitsfor homes marketed by windsor Development, and he has appeared beforethe City council to present h'uilding plans for homes marketed bywindsor Development, and at least, in'1979, he was utilizing-wiia"o,Developmentrs business phone (831-07L7) as his business phone.
Mr. Hauptman advised our buircling inspector that he, Mr. Hauptman,w?s a representative of rnternational Log Homes, rnc. r note thatWindsor Development and International Log Homes, Inc. share a conmonaddress, share a common telephone, and appear to share common corporateorILcers
The culvert under Carver Beach Road has drained onto the Oien propertyfor more than.twenty years. when International Lot Homes, rncl tiokout the building permit for the Oien house, I"Ir. Hauptman, on behalfof International Log Homes, stated that the developlr was acceptingthe lay of the land as it was and wourd design aroi:nd it.
f believe that I^Iindsor Development Corporation bears the responsibilityof preparing the oien site foi occupan-y, and that Windsor olvelopmentshould take any additional steps which ire necessary to remedy thadrainage problem at its expense.
The City engineer is in the process of studying possible remedies tothe erosion problems.

I,IEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Don Ashworth, City Manager
DATE: June L, 1981
suBJ: Authorize Preparation of Report to Amend [park r Economic
Development District" to Include Properties South of Hi-ghway5 (CPT Property)
The original economj-c development district, primarily establishedto encompass the "Park I'property did reflect the city's intentto establish the properties south of Highway 5 (CPT property) as afuture part of the economic development district. Again, this was doneto ensure that aII parties would recognize the city's future intent,but the details of that district were not made a part of the specificfindings of the Council because of the 8/10 ruling (increments canonly be received for 8 out of 10 years following adoption of any onedistrict or for any phase within an overall district.). Therefore,it was prudent for the City not to include properties south of Highway
5 until such time as specific building activity was foreseen.
The time to determine whether Phase II (property south of Highway 5)
should be formally accepted as a part of the district and, therefore
start the clock, is now. This statement is made in" recognition of
another portion of the law which will not allow the capturing of any
tax increments generated from buildinqlermits issued prior to the date
of adoption of the district or secondary phase of that district (assumes
that the building permit is issued for properties included in that
secondary phase). Given the length of time required for preparation of
a report from the City Attorney/BRw's office and the current time
schedules of CPT, it is questionable as to whether the second phase of
the economic development district can be approved prior to final approval
of the building permit for CPT.
It is recommended that an amount not to exceed $3,000.00 be authorized
to be expended for preparation of a report outlining potential benefits/
liabilities of formalizing Phase II as well as outlining legal procedures
to be approved. This recommendation is being made contingent upon the
Community Development Director's clarification that revenues will be
received in 1982, from the existing economic development district, in
excess of the proposed expenditure authorization.

IV. NOTICES AND RESOLUTIONS
I Introduction
A. PROJECT AREA
The Municipal Development District No. 1 and the Tax lncrement District No.?, as proposed in this report, are located at the eastern edge of
Chanhassen immediately east of the CBD. The project area consists of thatsection of Chanhassen, on both sides of State Highway 5, which is locatedentirely within Hennepin County. Figure 1 delineates the boundaries and therelationship of the two districts.
The Municipal Developmenf District is being establ ished pursuant to
Minnesota Sfatutes, Chapter 472A, in order to give the City Council theauthority fo carry out development activities. The entire project area isincluded in Municipal Development District No. I to permit the City to
ccmplefe current as well as future improvements and developments.
The Tax lncrement District (TlD) is being established pursuant fo Minnesota
Stafutes, Chagter 273, in order to give fhe City Council the authority fo
use Tax lncrement Financing as a funding source. Under Chapter 273, a TID
has to be established as either a housing project, a redevelopment project,or an economic development project. Since this area qual ifies under thelast cafegory, it wi I I be an economic development projecf, which has aduration limifation of ten years. Also, because a TID can be establishedfor selected portions of the overall Development District and because it is
advantageous to designate areas that have the greatest inrmediate develop-
ment potential (within the next 2-4 years), only the northeast quadrant of
the Development District is being designated as Tax lncrement District No.2 (fhe existing CBD Redevelopment Project is TID No. I ). Addif ional TlDs
within the Development Disfrict can be established later, as required.
B. EXISTING CONDITIONS
The Development District encompass.s approximately ,l44 acres consisting ofpartially developed, agricultural, and open land (Figure 2). lt is
bisected by Stafe Highway 5 within 72 acres north of the highway and 72
acres south of it.
Existing developments include the Lyman
lnc./Reply Systems, lnc. bui lding both of
half and two single fami ly residences and
Lumber complex and' fhe Press,
which are located in the northern
a farm in the southern ha I f of

District No. 1
A. BASIS FOR SELECTING THE PROJECT
The Chanhassen Municipal Development District No. I was selected to support
wel I planned industrial growth within the community. This action is in
conformance with adopted City Plans and in keeping with the emerging
pattern of development. During negotiations with property owners it was
determined that due to natural constraints of the site, and the Cityrs
comprehensive plans which cal I for substantial publ ic improvements in the
areas, the costs of developing within the project area would be prohibitive
without the use of some form of public improvement cost writedown. Pro-
perty owners have indicated that public improvements of the type recom-
mended by this plan, underwritten by a combination ol tax increment
financing and special assessments, would induce high levels of industrial
development within the project area over the next 5-10 years.

Highway 5 is presently a iwo-lane highway. There are no improvementsprogrammed f9f Highway 5 in the vitinity of the development EF€o.However, traffic volumes are approaching the capacity of this highway.The 1978 average daily traf f ic volume Jn Highway 5 is 'l5,9OO ,eiiclesat the easter I y edge of Chanhassen.V
Following is discussion of major traffic impacts of the proposed plan:
. A principal entrance to the site will be from the proposed
north-soufh arterial (l84th Street). The intersection of the
extended service road serving the site and l84th Street can be
designed to adequately accommodate traffic entering and leavingthe site. This intersection is to be located approximately 800feet north of the Highway 5/184th intersection. This would pro-
vide a good separation between these two intersections and so no
i nterference between the two is expected.
. The service roads, as proposed, will provide adequafe access toproperties within the site.
. The intersection of West l84th Street and Highway 5 will need to
be designed as a major at-grade intersection. Turn lanes should
be provided as required to minimize delay and improve safety.
Traff ic signals should be installed initially at this intersec-tion or provision should be made for instal I ing signals when
these become warranted.
G. CONFORMANCE |,IITH LOCAL PLANS
l. City of Chanhassen Draft Comprehensive Plan
The Cityts draft Comprehensive Plan contains a number of goals and
objectives relevant to this project. Three of these objectives relate
directly to improvements being proposed by this plan. These read as
fol lows:
Publ ic Faci I ities Ob.iectives
o Provide public sanitary Sewer, water, Storm water, electrical,
natural gas and communication service to al I urban density resi-
dential developments and all non-residential, conrnercial and
industrial uses in a manner which is responsive to natural
resource protection concerns within the City.
. Al I uti I ity systems should be instal led in newly developing
areas before or at the time of development. This allows for
more economical utility installation, reduction of damage to

3. Bonded lndebtedness to be lncurred
It is anticipated that one General obl igation bond issue would berequired to carry out fhe development proi.u, for the Chanhassen Tax
I ncrement District No. 2. The bond iisue is proposed to tota I$1,000,000. An interest rate of 9.25 percent and a term of eight yearswere assumed in making cash flow projections. The project would closeout in 1989, however, if developmenl were to occur i; excess of theconservative levels project or other factors such as a high rate ofinflation contributing to a rapid acceleration of property values wereto occur, then the bond issue wculd be subject to an early'recall.
4 . Cash F low lvlode
A compuferized cash flow model was developed to illustrate the finan-cial feasibi lity of the Chanhassen Economic Development District #'l .The model was based on conservative fiscal assumptions whereverpossible. Folrowing is a rist of the assumptions used:

render an opinion on the zoning status
use permit.
The permit was granted on March 29, 1971, under the provisions of the
former Chanirassen Township Zoning ordinance. Thereafter, on March 9,
L972, the Chanhassen Zoning Ordinance (No. 47) became effective,
whereupon the use became a non-conforming use in an R-IA District.
Section 20.04 of the present Zoning ordinance is most explicit on the
issue of the termination of a non-conforming use. This section provides
as follows:
"...20.04 Termination of Use. In the event a non-
contormingffid@ (1)
@tnforming use is r:eplaced by a
EonJo-rming use, any subsequent use of thg pfemises
shalI be in conf egulations
We are of the opinion that there has been a non-user of the premises
for which the plrmit was granted and that this non-user invokes the
termination provisions of Section 20 -04.
In other words, the DaIe Green Co. has not used the premises for the
prrrpo=e= intended which thereby causes a termination of the non-
Loniorming use status. Incideitat and trivial use by the company is
not suffilient, in our opinion, to prevent the termination'

Dear Scott:
Pursuant to our discussion yesterday, we are submitting herewith our proposalfor preparing the required EAI{ for the Downtown Redevelopment project.
Based upon the proposed project plan, BRW will perform all impact analysis forall EAI'/ environmental categories and products. Specif ically, BRW wi ll addressthe air qual ity analysis by estimating increased automotive'emissions and the land B hour rnaximum carbon npnoxide oncentrations at the nrost heavily impactedintersection. Discussion of measures to mitigate air qual ity impacts ofconstruction and operatiori wi ll be included. The noise analysis section of theEAI'I would include identif ication of sensitive receptors and estimation of theimpact of increased traffic noise of those receptors and the identification ofpotential construction noise impacts as well as a discussion on mitigatingmeasures.
Upon completion of the draft EAW, BRlJrI wi ll review the document with the City andmake any necessary revisions. Upon completion of the f inal EAlr'/, we wi ll for-mal ly submit it to the City of Chanhassen and the appropriate State agencies.
As part of the EAW process, BRW will also prepare an essential traffic analysisstudy of the project area and integrate the onclusions in the EAl,l.
The product will consist of 5 copies of a draft report for staff review and 50copies of the final report. (Approximately J0 copies are required for submissionto var ious Sta.te agenc ies. )
We propose that compensation for these tasks be on an hourly basis with not toexceed total cosfs as fol low:

CPT founder and CEO Dean Schelf
machine with superior software, is priced at $10,000
-and climbing.) The Displaywriter announcement
caused many observers to predict an industry shake-
out that stand-alone specialists like CPT would not sur-
vive. And indeed, the casualties have been heavy. A
number of rvord-processing companies have recently
sold out; for many of them, acquisition was the kiss oI
death.
A.t the high end of the word-processor product line,
something called "clustering" occurs. The term is
generally used to describe a family of terminals (either
smart or dumb) sharing the logic of a central processor
-which is a logical approach for customers who require
word processing and data processing in one system.
IBM's clustered systems feature terminals with minimal
memory; Wang's terminals have no intelligence of any
kind.
Scheff remains convinced that the smart stand-alone,
with its shared-resource capability, is the smart buy-
even for the Fortune 1000. The problem with shared-
logic clustered systems is that when the central processor
goes down, the whole system goes down. "This is where
Wang has gotten into trouble," says Stearns. "They've
had real service problems with the WangWriter." With
shared-resource, each work station has its own micro-
processor, allowing it to function independently of the
network.
But the company will continue to place the highest
priority on stand-alone sales to smaller customers in
smaller markets. Melody Johnson, who follows the of-
fice-products industry for Kidder Peabody in New
York, calls this "a very smart strategy." Over the next
i.q1se';x
3
two years the second-tier market should sustain CPT's
profitability, she says. For the longer term, the compa-
ny can choose one of two ways to grow: horizontally, by
expanding its product line at the lower end, or vertical-
ly, by developing a broader range of sophisticated office
products that can communicate with one another-the
network approach favored by the Fortune 1000. This
would probably mean a joint venture, she adds, but
"Scheff has made it clear that if anyone is going to do
any acquiring, it will be CPT."
There is no doubt that CPT's success depends as
much upon its distribution network as the products it.
sells. The linchpin in CPT's domestic marketing effort
is the dealer. The company operates eight sales offices in
major U.S. cities-in Washington, D.C., for example,
one office handles commercial customers while a second
sells exclusively to the government. But small towns are
true CPT strongholds. Some 200 independent dealers-
many of them one-person offices or husband-and-wife
teams-sell CPT systems in more than 500 U.S. ciries.
This year CPT launched a $2-million adverrising cam-
paign-a bigger investment in its image than all previ-
ous years' efforts combined. On the domestic front,
CPT customers are told, "We take the mystery out of
word processing." To buyers overseas the message is:
"CPT speaks your language in over 35 countries."
CPT's international distributors-among them, mar-
keting heavyweights Iike Hermes (West Germany) and
Honeywell Bull (France)-have lately boosted that
number to 53.
CPT listens to the dealers because the dealers listen to
the users, and the users talk common sense, Dean

tor)".
"When we started the company IBM rented practical-
ly everything. Lots of people said to me, 'Hey, you can't
succeed il you don't rent too.' My theory is, the faster
you become successful the faster you go out of business
because if you rent something instead of selling it, where
do you get the money to buy parts and make payroll and
all that sort of rot while that rental comes in? Now, if
you're a big, successful company with a lot of money,
what better way to keep the competition out of your
hair than to say, 'Don't buy, rent. You don't want to
get something that will become obsolete, do you?' And
people are dumb enough to believe that. What they
can't figure out is when you do that, the company
you're buying from is the last company in the world
that's going to bring out something technologically su-
perior because if they do that they're going to replace
their whole rental business. People are a little bit
weird. "
Neither mighty IBM nor scrappy CPT came up with
the answer to obsolescence, holvever. A little company
called Linolex was the industry's true technology leader
in 1973. "Our first product was hardware; we were
using cassette tapes. Their first product was software.
They brought out the floppy disk, which made the hard-
ware updatable just by inserting a new program into the
machine ."
Wherc is Linolex today? Dean Scheff answers with
rctish: "Tubesville." Linolex rvas bought out by 3it'I and
promptly fell apart. Bigness did them in. "3M never did
undcrstand lrardware. They had the technology leader
and they didn't know rvhat to do rvith it." CPT quickly
adoptecl the floppy-disk technology and innovative solt-
warc packages joined its growing arsenal of marketing
weapons aimed at the solt underbelly of the big boys.
Other companies had other ideas- As CPT rvent
around the back way, developing software for its stand-
alone customers "in places like Muncie and Fargo and
Anchorage and Mankato and Sioux Falls and Sioux
City and Rapid City," Wang Laboratories "went right
into IBM's bedroom," selling directly to Fortune-l0oo
companies by out IBMing IBM. "They put out a prod-
uct that \\'as so much better than IBM's magnetic card II
that it was like driving around in a Cadillac versus a
Volkswagen." Wang was the first to successfully incor-
porate into its systems the next major innovation in
word processing: the microprocessor vastly improved
their versatility and speed. "We had a project going but
they beat us by about a year and parlayed that thing into
an absolutely phenomenal marketing effort. I've got to
take my hat off to Dr. Wang. He did something I was
afraid to do."
CPT Corp., meanwhile, wasn't doing half bad. The
company made a profit after just one year and has been
very comfortably out of the black ever since. Shortly
after Scheff and Eichhorn took the company public in
1972, Eichhorn began lining up distributors abroad.
When the recession hit in the early '70s, CPT's domestic
sales slacked off right along with everyone else's, but in-
ternational sales kept the growth curve heading sky-
ward. CPT introduced the 8000 in 1978; sales shot up 70
percent, to $34 million. CPT still sells more 8000s, by
some margin, than any other product.
"When all is said and done there's IBM, there's
Wang, there's Xerox and there's Lanier," Scheff says.
"Those are the top four. Then there's another tier of
four or five smaller companies like NBI, and the word
processor divisions of Burroughs and Exxon. The top
four we see all the time; the second tier might be power-
ful in some towns but weak in others. Then there's
probably another 100 companies out thqre. Every com-
pany that's got a computer has got a word processor-
Honeywell, NCR, Apple, you name it. Northern Tele-
com just announced a computer with word-processing
capabilities. Sears is going to open data-processing
stores selling word processors, copiers, etc. Just proves
there's a lot of screwy people out there."
Foreign manufacturers are also salivating over the
vast market for word processors. A system put out by .
the Micom subsidiary of Holland's Philips N.V. ranked
second only to CPT's 8000 in Datapro's user-popularity
poll. Even Volkswagen has an entry, through three Cali-
fornia subsidiaries.
And what aboul the Japanese? They're out there, all
right, presenting a typically Japanese paradox. Who
would ever have guessed that a country whose language
is too complex even for simple typewriters to cope with
would venture into word processing? But then, who
would ever have guessed that a country with no raw ma-
terials would become the world's number-one steel
producer? Japan lnc. has launched a national crusade
to become the capital o[ the new information society,
methodically but ever so cautiously phasing out heavy
industry and replacing it with plants that manufacture
anything and everything connect.ed with the computer.
For their own offices they are developing word-process-
ing tcchnologies that will in effect leapfrog the immense
obstacle o[ the keyboard by replacing human fingers
rvith the human voice. For the export market, they are
busily assembling systems remarkably like those of their
Western counterParts.
Not so remarkably perhaps. Just as they did with
cssors trerc "temperamental." And as
the machines grew temperamental, so
did thc dealcrs. At the same time inven-

Evcntuallv Schell ligured out thc
man's Achilles heel: he rvasn't hiring
good peoplc. []c also recognized his ou'n
rnistakc, one he *'ould later repeat: he
had dc'legated too nruch responsibilitl'.
He decided to bring in a middle tier of
managers. hiring a vice president ol
marketing and a ',ice prcsident ol manu-
lacturing rvho later hired a vice president
of operations.
It was bad chemistry from the start.
"Alter I turned responsibility over to
them. things just seemed to get worse.
The controls that I u'anted implemented
seemed to be less good after they came
on board. We had a structure and these
people threw out everylhing we had, but
they never got around to implementing
the new structure. So from minimal
structure \\'e \\'ent to absolute chaos
overnight-from hall$ay decent to the
utter pits. "
Then came WordPak. The shared-re-
source concept was introduced with
great t'anfare at a press conference in
Ner.r' York. and CPT's dealers \,r'ere put
on notice to begin taking orders. But the
nerr rice presidents had jumped the gun
-WordPak u'ouldn't be ready for an-
other l"ear.
John Maclennon is vice president of
Eugene A. Hickok and Associates, a
i\linneapolis engineering-consulting
firm. and a close friend of Dick Eich-
horn since they shared a corridor at
Honevwell in the 1960s. He has served
on CPT's board of directors from the
beginning. As a principal in a San Diego
dealership that sells CPT products
throughout southern California, he
remembers all too well the repercussions
that followed the WordPak announce-
ment. "lt rvas a big splash. Promises
were made to the industry and actually
published. WordPak made a dramatic
impact. "
Just as dramatic was the backlash
when the dealers-and Dean Scheff-
learned the truth about WordPak. Big
companies like IBM can get away with
prema(ure product announcements: in
fact. the industry has come to accept
them and to set its agenda accordingly.
But big companies sell their products
through their own salcs offices. When
IBM announced its Displaywriter last

CPT's board of directors in 1976 whcn
he was working lor Medtronic. He be-
licves the communication problems be-
tween Schell and his 'u'ice presidents may
have stemmed from the fact that the vice
presidents had come fronr large corpora-
tions. They didn't undersland the
uniquc entrepreneurial situation that
was CPT. "Companies develop cul-
tures," he says. "CPT had a very real
culturc that was centered around Dean.
A very inrportant element in that culture
was the dealer. The Vice president of
marketing was not a dealer-oriented per-
son and Dean rvas, and Dean recognized
that you can't fool the dealer.
"Another very importan( element in
that culture was a kind of openness of
communication that extended fairly
deep into the organization. Dean might
call up somebody five levels down from
him and ask, 'Why are there so many
printers on back order?' At the same
time, however, he tended to delegate too
much responsibility initially. This back-
fired because he losl awareness of what
was going on and eventually felt he was
being shielded somewhat. Perhaps peo-
ple didn't feel comfortable tetling him
they were behind. Perhaps they didn't
want to lose lace with him. The prob-
lems came to the attention of the board
through the numbers. I began to get
frustrated because I couldn't get consis-
tent forecasts. The manufacturing peo-
ple were building to a more optimistic
forecast than the marketing people were
following. This caused serious inventory
problems and a deterioration in margins.
At Medtronic Perlman had been in-
volved in international sales. Naturally,
he took a particular interest in this part
of CPT's business. He sensed that the
company underestimated the potential
of the foreign market. International was
not getting enough service support, and
the manufacturing department was of-
ten careless about getting "the nuances"
right-small differences in keyboard
layout, for examPle, and the color of
labels (many of CPT's export products
go out on an OEM basis).
"There were other issues coming to a
head in late 1979. The financial group
was understaffed; controls weren't as
good as I would have liked- I was con-
cerned about accounts receivable."
The "communication" problem cre-
ated a morale problem, a company-wide
epidemic of paranoia. Dean Scheff felt
betrayed. He won't tolerate dishonesty'
and he places everything from prema-
ture product announcements to pom-
posity in that category. "The new vice
presidents used all the buzzwords," one
cmplol'-ee recalls. "Everything was 'in-
puts' and 'outputs' and 'data bases''
Dean still talks about typists." Excuses
are also strictly taboo: "And never apol-
ogize to Dean: He doesn't want to hear
about it." A very busy man-and in-
clined to be irnpatient-Dean Scheff
knows honesty is the mosr efficienl
policy.
"My theory is. if we could've survived
that year and grown by 70 percent, the
competition must have been reallY
screwed up," he says, shaking his head
in disgust. "The vice presidents had
both decided they were going to be presi-
dent. They got more involved in making
each other look bad than in making the
company look good. They were rivals
and everybody in the company knew it
except me." One day one of the vice
presidents marched into Scheff's office
with the important announcement that
he had just measured the comptroller's
office and found, much to his dismay,
that it was bigger than his own. "That
was it. Psychologically, they were
gone. "
ln spite of his frequent jabs at the pet-
ty politics rampant in large corpora-
tions, Dean Scheff was plainly shocked
to see his own managers acting out the
same, tired scenario. "l'd never worked
in middle management before. Some of
the things I've done I've never had
teachers for. When I hired people who
didn't work out, the first thing I did was
look inward. You have a lot of time to
think on a DC-10 from New Zealand. I
finally decided I'd reached my own level
of incompetence."
The time had come to hire, not anoth-
er corps of ambitious lieutenants, but a
futl-blown chief of staff, someone
whose skill as a professional manager
would complement Scheff's skill in de-
veloping and marketin! word-processing
technology. The characteristic in com-
mon would be an abilitY to cope with
change. This time Scheff sent away the
headhunters who had brought him disas'
ter from distant places and conducted
his own search in the Twin Cities. This
time he gave his own industrY a wide
berth. "As I said, I think our industry is
"[f we could survive
that year and grow 7O
percent, the
competition must have
been really screwed uP."
rather flakey. Them that ain't flakes is
nuts and fruits."
It took only a couple of phone calls to
put the name of GarY Holland on the
list. Here was a man rvith small-town
roots (he was born in Wiltow Springs'
Mo., in 1942); who had worked with
dealers as national sales manager of
Marymount, Inc., and later as vice presi-
dent of markering for the Coleman Co':
who had experience in international
marketing as vice president and general
Haydcn has been with CPT since
1979. He has known Dean Schefl since
earlv I971. rvhen he artended the Han-
ovcr Tracle Fair to look at u'ord-proc-
essing systcms for the U.S. Embassy in
Copcnhagcn. It is a classy affair, the
lVlerccdes Benz of trade sho*'s. Schelf
and Eichhorn \\'ere thcre with the 4200.
Thev took an instant liking to this young
man rvho \\'as so enthralled rvith the neu'
olficc'-productivity technologies-and
so t'luent in American English.
Hayden \\'as equally impressed.
"Overscas you see a wide variety of per-
sonalities. Schell and Eichhorn rvere dif-
ferent. They exuded trust. Their word
was their bond." And the product?
"Nothing else could touch it." Hayden
bought 4200s lor his embassy. (They
were so successful they got him-this ac-
cording to Dean Scheff-a promotion to
Brussels.) When the microprocessor
revolutionized word processing, Hayden
worried that CPT might fall behind. In-
stead, the company used the new tech-
nology to enhance its international po-
sition by developing software in every
European language.
After their first meeting in 1912, Hay'
den made a point of looking uP his
friends from Minneapolis whenever he
went to Hanover. And he never failed to
offer suggestions on how CPT could im-
prove its products for the international
market. "Finally, Dean said to me, 'lf
you're so smart, why don't you come to
work for us?' " Hayden was eventually
persuaded to take a one-year leave of
absence, then another. He was named
vice president of international the fol-
lowing year, and since then has added 25
new distributors to the CPT family over-
seas.
An important part of HaYden's as-
signment rvill be to combat European
resistance to new forms of technology in
the office. Many European offic,' work-
ers belong to lal-or unions, and labor
doesn't necessar rly agree that technology
will enhance workers' work lives by
liberating them from inefficient equip-
ment. They worry that the new machines
will take away jobs and dehumanize the
workplace. They worry, too, that word-
processor display screens, whatever the
tolor combination, cause eyestrain and
may even be a health hazard. So far
CPT's products have stood up exceed-
ingly well in this challenging m1+t!'
tt inkt to "thc human-engincering kinds

ning, bicn a toP PrioritY at CPT'.

rnatic pcrson, he is still verv much in
control. Thcre is this trenrc-ndous loyalty
to him uithin the company. lt really irn-
prcssed me that an individual could be
so successl'ul and still so down to carth.
He'is totalll" unprctentious, and very,
rcn' qrrick to admit when he's made a
mi\take. He has a rc-markable intuiti','e
grasp that erables him to make rapid-
lire decisions.
" lt should have taken months to
make the decision to go to lreland-to
analyze all the implications, cash-flow
requirements and so on. But it takes
time to assemble all the facts. Dean
simply stood up at a meeting one daY
and, aiter everybody had their say, said,
'Gentlemen, we're going to Ireland.'
We'tl be in lreland by the summer. If
we'd made the decision 'properly,' we'd
still be analyzing all the studies six
months from now."
The Dean Scheff school of manage-
ment-by-instinct has won him the un-
questioning-often dumbfounded-ad-
miration of his employees. "He used to
lick his finger and raise it in the air to see
rvhich way the wind was blowing, and
make a decision accordingly-and be
right," one employee recalls. The East
Coast financial community, however,
wasn't so easilY imPressed.
"When he announced CPT would do
$100 million in fiscal 1981, nobody be-
lieved him," says Kidder Peabody's
Melody Johnson. "lt took a while for
Wall Street to warm up to him. He's the
classic entrepreneur, a free spirit. "
Schefl has refused to be intimidated by
the Eastern cold front. Says Johnson,
"He still loves to play the role of the
good old boy from back home."
Cary Holland, who has latelY taken
over most of the financial-relations
chores, offer, a more discreet analysis.
"CPT has a certain midwestern quiet-
ness about it," he says. "We like to let
the others hype their l0-year projec-
tions. We'd rather point to our perform-
ance and just smile' But we're definitely
going to reach out to the financial com-
munity more, to tet them know we have
a clear strategic direction' We didn't
always arliculate that before."
CPT is often comPared to a Boulder,
Colo.. comPanY, NBI (the acron-vm
stands for Nothing But Initials). Like
CPT, it sells onlY word Processors.
Unlike CPT, its stock zoomed uP the
charts virtually from the day NBI went
public in 1979. Why the spectacular per-
formance?
Melody Johnson says it's a tittle like
comparing apples and oranges because
NBI has so much less stock out. Even so,
"NBl is more polished. They're coming
out of big corporations like IBN{." They
also have a more ambitious marketing
strategl -going directly into clustered
systems, setting up branch offices, mak-
ing their systems compatible with IBM
and Xerox. (lt's called cherry-picking;
Johnson says CPT will eventually an-
nounce this too.) Meanwhile, "all the
emphasis on the Fortune-10O0 market
may enhance CPT's position in smaller
markets. "
Piper Jaffray's Marv Ceisness agrees
that CPT hasn't exactly majored in fi-
nancial relations. "The East Coast,
especially Boston, has been generally
hostile toward Dean Scheff. They don't
take him seriously. He's, well, flip-
pant." The buttoned-down shirts and
Brooks Brothers suits simply can't cope
with Welcome, Minn. The result?
"CPT's stock has been consistently un-
dervalued. ' '
Up until this spring, that is. A com-
bination of factors, among them a surg-
ing stock market and CPT's successful
reorganization, boosted CPT stock into
the $50 range. CPT is no longer such a
sure-thing speculative risk, but Geisness
is betting on it to stay aloft over the long
term. lts earnings per share in fiscal 1980
were $1.36. In January Merrill Lynch
predicted earnings per share to climb to
around $1.85 in fiscal 1981, on 5.3 mil-
lion shares. Ceisness is even more bull-
ish. "l could see $2 to $2.25 in 1981."
CPT's price,/earnings ratio for the four
quarters ending Dec. 31, 1980, was "ap-
proximately 21," according to chief fi-
nancial officer Dale Clift. "That's still
behind Wang and Lanier [at 41.4 and
30.6, respectivelyl, but we're starting to
catch up."
CPT's earnings picture will be signifi-
cantly enhanced in fiscal l98l bY a
change in its accounting procedures. It
will drop the practice of providing for
deferred taxes on income derived from
its domestic international sales corpora-
tion (DISC). Last year CPT provided
fully for taxes on this income for book
purposes, a very conservatlve account- .
ing technique that pushed the company's
tax rate some l0 percentage points high-
er, effectively lopping off $.30 from
fiscal 1980 earnings per share.
It may be a Photo finish, but Clift is
confident the company will exceed
Scheff's $100-million sales goal. Reve-
nues were $43.5 million at the end of the
first six months of fiscal 1981. Clift says
third-quarter results met expectations
("lt's traditionally a flat period"), but
the fourth quarter will be "gangbusters'"
Financial relations is one thing; finan-
cial management is quite another. John
MacLennon calls Scheff's ability to con-
trol the flow of money in and out of the
company "simply uncanny." Scheff de-
scribes it this way: "l gave up balancing
my checkbook years ago. I think in mag-
nitudes or directions, not in decimal
points. I've never been able to figure out
why the accounting department spends
hours trying to find pennies. My theory
is, when you're looking hours for pen-
nies, you've got to be screwed uP."
It is precisely this uncluttered ap-

seriousness hrith which apperlants raise this argument, such an
argument would appear facetious, inasmuch as a review of the facts
revears that the appellants were virtually inundated with notice
that finar action wourd be taken on the assessments on May 12, 19g0.
As the facts reveal, the City gave aII notice required and, in
fact, exceeded the notice reguirements of M.S.A. S429.061.
In accordance with M.S.A. 5429.061tft, tf," City held a public
hearing on the proposed assessment roll on February 25, 1980.
Attached hereto as Exhibits A and B are the Not.ice of Hearing and
Affidavit of Mailing Notice of Hearing for the February 25, 1980
meeting. The appellants were mailed such notice and attended the
hearing. Thus, it cannot be seriously contended that the City
failed to give the required notice of hearing. (rt should be noted
that the notice of hearing specifically states that individuals
have 30 days from the adoption of the assessment ro11 to appeal
pursuant to M.S.A. 5429.081.) The minutes state that the hearing
was "closed" at I0:20 p.m. Under M-S.A. 5429.06I a clear
distinction must be drawn between "adiournment of the hearing"
and "adjournment of the meeting." There hras one hearing on the
subject assessment roII. That hearing hras oPened on Februar! 25,
1980, and was closed on that same date. This v,as the only
public hearing which the city was required to hold on the assessment
ro11. Thereafter, however, at City Council meetings held
llarch 23, March 3I,and April 14, 1980, the Council considered
amendment of the assessment roll as to individual parcels. The
appellants were present at the March 24 meeting, at which their
Property was discussed.
Flaintiffs contend that the City failed to adequately notj'fy them
of its action on the adoption of the assessment roII' The Minnesota
Supreme Court has specifically held that M'S'A' SS429'031-'061
is not const.itutionally defective by reason of its failure to
provide notice of the actual adoption of the assessment roll'
Imperial Refineries of Minn rnc v City of Rochester (f969) 165
Nw2d 699. Further, it is unclear from a reading of 5429'061'Subd'2
E'- -'_*'- _-
"Due to the absence of two members, Councilman
Swenson moved to table the 1979 North Service' Area Assessment proceedings to Monday, l(ay L2,1980, at. 7:30 p.m. in the Minnetonka WestJunior High, if avai1able."
Such notice fully comports with 5429.061, Subd. 2.
Second, although 5429.061, Subd.2, requires either notice in the
minutes of the adjourned hearing, or by publication, the City
also published a notice of the May 12, 1980 meeting in the l(ay 7,
L980 Carver County Herald, the official newspaper for the City of
Chanhassen. This notice was published five days prior to the
meeting. 5429.061, Subd.2, requires only 3 days'notice if the
notice is by publication. Thus, the City clearly gave sufficient
notice by publicat,ion.
Third, the City mailed notice of the May 12, 1980, meeting to the
Fishers. (See Affidavit of Timothy Fisher). lhis notice was
identical in form to the notice published in the Carver County
Herald. The notice was clear and unequivocal-in pertinent Part

"...North Service Area Assessment Project 71-I,
consider Adoption and senior citizen Deferment Requests
lmls aAEId-wIfr include final action on individual

@(Enphasis suPPlied)
The ptain meaning of this notice is that adoption of the assessment
roll was to be considered at the meeting and that this wouLd be
the final action on individual assessment requests'
It should also be mentioned that the city council's action as taken
at tshe May 12, l98O meeting was well publicized' The May 14' 1980
issue of the carver countv Herald carried a lengthy article on
the adoption of the assessment roll' A copy of that art'icle is
attached as Exhibit D-
Finally,bytheirownadmission,appellantsreceivedmailednotice
from the City on June 4, or 5, 1980, that the assessment roll had
been adopted at the May 12, I9B0 meeting' (See Affidavit of
Timothy Fisher). At this time, aPpellants still had a time within

"In considering plaintiff's argument,s, it must, bekept in mind that appeals by property owners from' assessments are wholly statutory, there being nocommonlaw right to such appeal, and that theconditions. imposed by the statute must be strictlycomplied with. Village of Edina v Joseph 264Minn 84, 93, rrgmitionswill not be extended by construction. The conditions
imposed by 5429.081 are three: The notice of appealmust be served withi.n 20 days of adoption of theassessment; it must be served on either the mayor orthe village clerk; and it must be filed with theclerk of the District Court.within 10 days after it. is served.
'l..The legislature in granting the ohrners of propertythe right to appeal from assessments has providedthat the government officials must be served within20 days...The short time allowed can only be construedas intended to facilitiate the orderly operati.on ofmunicipal government and eliminate unnecessary delaysin the prescribed assessment procedure." 170 NW2d at 128.
Appellants were given every opportunity to voice their objections
and were given fu11 notice of all City Council action. By reason
of their failure to timely serve the City with notice of appeal,
this Court is without jurisdiction to hear appellantsr mot.ioq and
to grant the relief which the appellants are seeking.
B.
EstooDe1 Does Not Arise From the Action of One Councilman.
Appellants in their affidavits and in their Memorandum state that
Mrs. Fisher had a conversation with Councilman Neveaux wherein
Mrs. Fisher was advised that no final action would be taken on the
assessment roll until August of 1980.
Even if the conversation with Councitman Neveaux is accurately
reported, it must be remenbered that there are five votes on the
City Council and only three votes are needed to adoPt an assessnent
ro1l. Mr. Neveaux could only speak for himself and not for the
entire Council.
By appellants interpretation of assessment procedure, any one
member of the COuncil wOuld have an effective veto power over the
adoption of an assessment roll merely by unilaterally announcing
postponements of final action. Clear1y, Chapter 429 should not be
extended by judicial interpretation to include any such veto
POwer.

However, in the instant case, the requisite identity of issues
is Idcking for the reason that the only issue which is properly
before this court at this time is the question of jurisdiction.
The City of Chanhassen has moved for dismissal on the grounds that
this court lacks jurisdiction over its person in this action by
reason of the faj.lure of the Fishers to timely serve their notice
of appeal on the City. This jurisdictional question is absolutely
dispositive of this action. Appellants'collateral estoppel
argument is a thinly-veiled attempt to side step the rule that
there is no right of intervention in assessment appeals timely
colunenced by other property owners. This rule is set forth in the
case of Village of sdina v Joseph (f963), II9 Nw2d 808, which is
discussed on page 5 of our },lernorandum dated March I0, 1981.
Therefore, the judgment of the court in City o_f_Chanhassen v
Joseph 1,1. Massee et al, can have and has no bearing on the
disposition of this action.
D.
Appellants Have Been Affcrded Equal Protection of the Laws.
Appellants' reliance on State v_Northwestern Preparatory School (1949)
37 NW2d 370, State v Vadnais 1L972) 202 NW2d 657, Hay v TorvnshiP
of Grow (1973) 206 Nw2d 19, and Northwestern College v City of
Arden Hills (1979) 281 Nw2d 865 for the proPosition that they have
not been afforded equal protection under the laws is misplaced.
In each of those cases, the court found that a municipality's
zoning regulations violated due process of law as' guaranteed by
the united states constitution either because the municipality
unla$rfuIly discriminated by selectively enforcing the regulations
or because the regulaticrrs made unreasonable distinctions or
classifications among t.he various citizens of the municipality'
Clearly, such is not the case here' Appellants in the instant
case differ from the appellants in the prior action inasmuch as
t.hey failed to follc'w the procedure set forth by the state
legislature for appealing from a special assessment' Thus'
it is obvious that the appellants greivance is not with the City
of crranhassen; the appellants are, in effect, alleging that
,.*
-*fr.l,+
The state |egislature enacted M.S. 5429.081 as the sole means of
appeEling from a speciar assessment. The supreme court has ie.ld
that the requirements of s429.081 must be stri.ctly complied hrith.
By admission, the a5pellants did not serve such notice hrithin the
statutory period, and for this reason this court is without
jurisdrction to consider their appeal. Appellants have been
afforded the fuI1 protection of the laws.
CONCLUS ION
By admission, the appellants failed to perfect their appeal
under 5429.081. TheCity of Chanhassen fully complied with the
notice requirements of Chapter 429 tn adopting the assessment. By
reason of the appe).lants'failure to comply with the requirements
of 5429.081, the appellants' moti.on for summary judgirnent is not
properly before this court. The City of Chanhassen renews its
motion for dismissal and prays that this matter be dismissed for
lack of jurisdict,ion, pursuant to Rule 12 of the Minnesota Ru1es
of Civil Frocedure.
