TO: City Council Members& Staff
FROM: Eric Johnson,City Administrator
✓%
Zoninq &Development Items:
1. No new applications have been received for the April Planning Commission meeting date.
2. The City continues to pursue final agreements with MNDOT for the Norell Project.This however also includes finalizing commitments and permits
with the BCWD.The Clty is required to document—amongst other things—the City land rights to the BCWD.See enclosed letter doing so.On a
related note,staff did meet with the local WAL MART manager to bring him up to speed on the upcoming project;we reached out to him as we
unfortunately expected him to know nothing of the project—we were correct and did provide him layout map and timeline—he was appreciative.
3. One code enforcement letter related to pool repairs and its nuisance condition is enclosed.
4. The Park Dental Group related to their proposed redevelopment of that site,mistakenly believed they had permissions from the MSCWMO to
install an INFILTRATION BASIN to deal with their storm water. MSCWMO never stated as such-as this final decision comes from the City.The
City is responsible for aquifer protection.Unfortunately,after MSCWMO review,Park Dental engineers did NOT loop back with the City in a timely
fashion to check this and are now surprised that the City would not allow this as final permitting is close.Storm water rules and process are well
known—or should be-by their consultants.Please see the STANTEC letter enclosed related to infiltration ponds in the DWSMA as proposed and
why it is not recommended nor permitted.This was also conveyed to Park Dental in the Sept 2021 plan review and is part of the issued P.U.D.
PERMIT. All this said,staff will be meeting with them next week to see how or if they can convert their infiltration basin to a filtration basin.
COVID-19 Matters:
• This is the Governor's-PORTAL https://mn.gov/covidl9—Many documents/Exec.Orders can be found. Washington County has initiated a

Re: Above Ground Swimming Pool
Dear Mr. Cici:
I was contacted by the property adjacent to you with regard to water coming into the home and made a
site investigation to the home. It appears that the melting snow accumulated to the unlined pool at your
yard may be the source or is likely contributing to the situation.
The pool has not been maintained and is beginning to fail structurally. The following observations were
made at the time of site investigation today:
1. The wall supports are showing signs of failure to the pool wall at the desk side.
2. The pool Iiner is not in place and has pulled away from the frame.
3. The pool does not have a cover, nor does it appear to have had one in place.
4. Access to the pool is not closed off from the deck/stairway by guards and/or a gate.
5. Guards are not fully in place at the deck as required per the MN Residential Building Code.
The condition of the above ground swimming pool at your home is in a state of disrepair and is in
violation of City Nuisance Ordinance 1109, City Ordinance 1303 as it relates to swimming pools, and
Minnesota Residential Building Code Section R312 as it relates to Guards. These Ordinances and Code
section, along with some site photos have been enclosed for your review.
This letter serves as the City's request for Code Compliance to abate the nuisance of the pool condition
either by its full repair or removal and abatement of MN Residential Code violation by placement of
compliant guards and/or gate to the deck. Abatement or an approved abatement plan and appropriate
work permit shall be completed no later_ than April 25, 2022.
Please contact me with any Questions you may have. I am happy to meet you to discuss the situation
and potential solutions.
Sincerely,

® Stantec Memo
To: Eric Johnson, Oak Park Heights From: Mark Janovec
Lee Mann, Stantec Stantec Minneapolis
File: 193800151 Date: March 25, 2022
Reference: Proposed Stormwater Infiltration at Park Dental Site
We have reviewed the higher-level engineering review prepared by EOR on October 18, 2021 regarding the
proposed stormwater infiltration at the Park Dental site. The need for the higher-level engineering review was
identified in the guidance prepared for the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's Minnesota Stormwater
Manual. Specifically, the review was required because the proposed stormwater infiltration site is located with
the highly-vulnerable Drinking Water Supply Management Area (DWSMA)for the Oak Park Heights Wellhead
Protection Plan.
The higher-level engineering review concluded that infiltration of stormwater at the site is acceptable because
it was outside of the one-year capture zone for the City's wells, also known as the Emergency Response Area
(ERA), and that no other receptors were within a one-year time-of travel of the proposed infiltration site.
Despite these conclusions from the EOR review, we have identified several points of concern with the
proposed stormwater infiltration site:
1. The delineated ERA for the Wellhead Protection Plan was based on a computer model that relied
upon parameters that are estimates. Groundwater flow systems are very complex and the accuracy
of modeled capture zones is only an approximation of groundwater flow conditions. The Park Dental
site is located between two "lobes" of the ERA. If the actual aquifer parameters differ slightly from the
estimated (modeled) aquifer parameters, there is a likelihood that the actual one-year capture zone
for the City's wells may already include the Park Dental property.
2. The delineated ERA was based on pumping volumes from the City's wells from 2007 to 2011. That
delineation will be due for an update by 2023. If pumping volumes from the City's wells have
increased over the past ten years, the amended ERA will mostly likely encompass the Park Dental
site.
3. The Jordan bedrock aquifer that the City's wells utilize lies directly below the highly-fractured Prairie
du Chien bedrock layer. Flow within this fractured bedrock is very difficult to simulate with computer
models because the location and layout of specific fractures cannot be easily mapped. A contaminant
that infiltrates to the Prairie du Chien bedrock could quickly migrate horizontally before entering the
underlying Jordan aquifer. The travel times for groundwater flow in reality may vary from the
estimated travel times indicated by the model in the Wellhead Protection Plan.
4. The Park Dental site is immediately upgradient of both City wells with regards to groundwater flow
direction. A spill that infiltrates at this site has a strong potential to contaminant both City wells. While
the Park Dental site is outside the currently-delineated ERA, the site is still well within the highly-
vulnerable capture zone of these wells. Therefore, any contaminants that reach groundwater at this
site can still be expected to reach the City's wells. Based on the proximity of the Park Dental site to
the ERA, one could still expect that a spill at the site could contaminate the City's wells in
approximately one year. That leaves little time for the City to identify alternate site(s) for replacement
wells, obtain property easements, design and construct new wells, modify the distribution system, and
complete State permitting to utilize the wells.

Reference: Proposed Stormwater Infiltration at Park Dental Site
For the reasons outlined above, we do not recommend stormwater infiltration at the Park Dental site. It should
be noted that the Minnesota Stormwater Manual is a guidance for making decisions on stormwater infiltration.
The guidance cannot encompass all situations in which infiltration is proposed. It is reasonable that any
review of proposed stormwater infiltration look beyond the guidance to assess all risks. With the Park Dental
site located in a highly-vulnerable DWSMA, immediately upgradient of the City's only water supply wells, we
feel the risks are too great to recommend infiltration at this site.

RE: 2022—City Street-Mill&Overlay Project
Dear City Resident/Business Operator:
The City is planning to perform a MILL&OVERLAY of a number of streets in your area during the summer of 2022 as generally
shown in the map enclosed—noted in GREEN
A MILL&OVERLAY generally consists of"milling"the top few inches of black-top from the roadway and then reapplying these as
well as adding some new materials to that area to create an improved roadway surface.A MILL& OVERLAY is an intermediary
step in road maintenance to reach the full life-cycle of a road.We would expect that the MILL and OVERLAY would delay the need
for a full reconstruction for at least another decade.
Unlike many communities, Oak Park Heights does not assess costs for MILL and OVERLAY projects.These costs are recovered
through general property taxes. Although some failed curb sections will be replaced, generally curbing, driveway aprons and
sidewalks are typically not affected with this type of project. However, there will be some localized disruption to your local street
and which may cause you some temporary delay, undue noise and of course the traditional construction happenings.
This work is slated to commence after the completion of the current school year and it may cause various disruptions in
the area for approximately 60 days however except for some very short term delays all roads are expected to be generally
passable. Please use caution when moving through these areas.
When a more specific schedule is firm, the City will send out a second letter.
Please let me know if you have any questions 651-439-4439
Kind Regards,
