These investments are now being utilized by a development known as Ravinia in southeast Corcoran. Water is being purchased from the City of Maple Grove and sanitary sewer service is provided by the Met Council. Users of the system are required to pay trunk fees, connection fees, and use fees which will pay for the system. Separate water and sanitary funds have been set up outside of the general fund to receive the revenue and pay for the costs of the system. This means that the general fund will not be subsidizing the water and sewer funds. A portion of staff costs are being billed to these funds and hours are being tracked to understand how much effort it takes to operate the system. Shown are two images: Lower left is the first lift station; upper left is a map showing the approximate location of installed services. For more information contact Brad Mar- tens at bmartens@ci.corcoran.mn.us or 763-400-7030.

Land Use Planning and Development Projects The following highlights a few of the planning and development reviews that have been reviewed by the City Council. For further information contact City Hall at 763-420-2288. Sawgrass: Peachtree Partners, LLC development on Schendel property A Preliminary PUD Development Plan, Preliminary Plat, and Rezoning to PUD was approved for the Sawgrass development in December. The project proposes 246 homes on 103.3 acres. The next step in the approval process is the Final Plat and Development Agreement. These items are being discussed at the staff level; no application has been received for final plat at this time. Ravinia: Lennar development Construction of the model home is complete and additional homes are being constructed. Staff received an application for phase two, which will plat an additional 36 homes, bringing the total number of platted lots to 71. The City anticipates an application for phase three early this spring. Three Rivers Park District Trailhead Three Rivers Park District received approval to construct a trailhead at the southeast intersection of County Road 19 and County Road 10. The original plan was to construct the facility in fall 2014. Unfortunately not one bid was received by Three Rivers Park District to complete the work. The project has been re-bid and will be completed by this fall. The Met Council continues to work on an Interceptor project, which will bring sanitary sewer service to the Corcoran border at its northeast corner. Construction will begin in 2015 with completion in 2016. Page 2 Commission Openings CHARTER COMMISSIONERS NEEDED - The City of Corcoran is a charter city, which also requires a Charter Commission governed by ordinance. The Commission meets at least once annually to review any correspondence, which could include the initiation of a new ordinance or other items outlined in its duties. The Commission most recently met in October 2014 and voted to increase its size by two members to nine. STUDENT COMMISSIONERS NEEDED FOR PARKS AND TRAILS - There are also seats open for high school students who would like to participate in the community development for the Parks & Trails Commission. If you are interested in learning more about the Charter Commission, being a student commissioner or would like to apply, please contact Brad Martens at bmartens@ci.corcoran.mn.us or 763-400-7030. Hope Center The Hope Center (community center in Maple Hill Estates) received its certificate of occupancy and will be opening soon. The center is owned by the City of Corcoran and operated by Mobile Hope. For more information on activities and programming please visit www.mobilehopemn.org. NW Jaycees’ Spring Ditch Clean up - April 24, 6pm along CO RD 30 from CO RD 19 for 2 miles east. For more details contact Val Nybo at 612-518-4314. Page 3 FROM PUBLIC WORKS ROAD RESTRICTIONSROAD RESTRICTIONSROAD RESTRICTIONS In the spring of each year, Public Works follows MNDOT’s guidelines to apply road restrictions throughout the City. We go on with the Metro and off with the Central. This involves flagging and posting 4 ton signs at the entrances of these roads. (That is, a vehicle cannot exceed a total of 4 tons per axle weight.) This is done because the frost goes out of the ground and traps moisture, making the under-layer soft. Heavy equipment or vehicles on the roads push the surface up, causing damage such as sinking or cracking of asphalt. Allowing time for the roads to dry will help alleviate these issues. During this time the city will not issue permits for overweight vehicles except for emergency reasons. If this affects any deliveries to your residence, you may want to notify your vendor of this posting to avoid any fines that could be issued to them. Restrictions are generally lifted sometime in May, following the Central Region. The following roads in Corcoran are always posted as 4 ton limits and require a permit: Horseshoe Trail—between Willow and Rolling Hills Road Larkin—between Co. Rd. 10 & 116 Hackamore For more information or to express concerns, contact Mike Pritchard at 763-400-7033. Corcoran Welcomes New Director of Public Safety Matt Gottschalk The City is excited to have Matt Gottschalk join the City as its new Director of Public Safety following the retirement of Sean Gormley. Matt previously served as Police Chief for the City of Staples and prior to that worked for the Mankato Police Department as Police Officer, School Resource Officer, and Investigator. Matt has been using his first few months to get to know the Corcoran community by meeting with as many community members and business owners as he can. You can reach Matt at 763-420-8966 or by email at mgottschalk@ci.corcoran.mn.us Photo of Matt front and center below with members of the Police Department team. Proudly serving for 28 years! It is with regret and gratitude feel- ings that the City announces the retirement of Lieutenant John Hamilton. John has been an integral part of the community for the last 26 years. His contributions will be valued for his hard work, commitment and dedication to the City of Corcoran. John’s last day will be March 31, 2015. Please feel free to stop by the Police Department to wish him well with his future endeavors. OPEN BURNING Burn permits are required to burn anything larger than a 3 x 3 recreational fire. Please check the City website for MN DNR-issued burn restrictions. Restrictions are usually placed on during the months of April and May of each year and extend until vegetative materials have greened up. Burn permits cost $10 and are valid for 10 days or $50 and valid for 120 days (4 months). You can purchase a burn permit at the Police Administra- tive Office during the business hours of Mon. - Thurs. 7:30 am - 5:00 pm and Fri. 8:00 am - 12:00 pm. For more information see our website under Departments/ Police/Burning Regulations. Check or cash payment only is accepted. SAFETY FIRST Corcoran Host Annual Truck Safety Seminar The community held its 8th Annual Truck Safety Seminar on March 5th. The new location at Corcoran Public Works facility proved to be the perfect venue to host the training event. Approximately 213 participants spent a half-day with representatives from the Corcoran Police Department, Corcoran Public Works and Minnesota State Patrol. After the seminar, the attendees were treated to a complimentary lunch. In addition, each attendee received safety apparel. PROTECT OUR MINNESOTA LAKES AND STREAMS CREATE A RAIN GARDEN Homeowners in many parts of the country are catching on to rain gardens - landscaped areas planted to wild flowers and other native vegetation that soak up rain water, mainly from the roof of a house or other building. The rain garden fills with a few inches of water after a storm and the water slowly filters into the ground rather than run- ning off to a ditch or storm drain. Compared to a conventional patch or lawn, a rain garden allows about 30% more water into the ground. Why are rain gardens important? As cities and suburbs grow and replace forests and agricultural land, increased stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces becomes a problem. Stormwater runoff from developed areas increases flooding; carries pollutants from streets, parking lots and even lawns into local streams and lakes; and leads to costly municipal improvements in stormwater structures. By reducing stormwater runoff, rain gardens can be a valuable part of changing these trends. While an individual rain garden may seem like a small thing, collectively they produce substantial neighborhood and community environmental benefits. Rain gardens work for us in several ways. Increasing the amount of water that filters into the ground, which recharges local and regional aquifers Helping protect communities from flooding and drainage problems Helping protect streams and lakes from pollutants carried by urban storm- water - lawn fertilizers and pesticides, oil and other fluids that leak from cars, and numerous harmful substances that wash off roofs and other paved areas Enhancing the beauty of yards and neighborhoods Providing valuable habitat for birds, butterflies and many beneficial insects For more information and ideas Google Rain Gardens Page 4 Page 5 RECYCLING POSTCARDS ARE IN THE MAIL Please watch for this bill to arrive in your mailbox. The annual amount due for this service is $34.50. To avoid late fees and penalties, please make sure your payment is submitted on time. If you do not receive a bill, contact the City Clerk, Jeanie Heinecke, at: 763-400-7032. WEEDS AND TALL GRASS The City continues to work diligently at getting rid of noxious weeds. All property owners of the city are responsible for the removal, cutting or disposal and elimination of noxious weeds and rank vegetation or uncontrolled plant growth on their property (any weeds, plants, or grass exceeding 12”). The most common prohibited noxious weeds (listed by the MN Dept. of Agriculture) in our area include Canada Thistle and Purple Loosestrife. These and other noxious weeds can be controlled a variety of ways. To learn more, check the U of M Extension Service website at: http:// www.extension.umn.edu/garden/yard-garden/weeds/ or The MN Dept. of Agriculture website at: http://www.mda.state.mn.us/plants/ pestmanagement/weedcontrol/disposalnoxweed.aspx. Purple Loosestrife Canada Thistle Canada Thistle Emergent USE ENVIRONMENTALY SAFE HERBICIDES STEPS TOWARDS ORGANIC WEED CONTROL Minnesota tends to have plantings of highly diverse crops, making it a hassle to spray different materials at different times. Necessity being the mother of invention, growers are finding ways to keep ahead of weeds using only cultural and mechanical methods. While some battles are lost, some growers are winning the war and their fields are kept remarkably clean without herbicides. Here is a tip for successful non-chemical weed control for smaller areas. Vinegar is a penny wise and environmentally-safe means for killing weeds. It is easy to use and will not the harm environment. Simply pour some undiluted household vinegar in a mister or spray bottle and spritz weeds to saturate their leaves. Usually within 6 to 48 hours the plant will wither and die. Young seedlings less than two weeks old will be killed entirely, older weeds will have their top growth killed but may still re-sprout from the roots. For best results do not spray weeds before a storm. For the larger weeds, try popping them out by removing most of their root system. The United States Department of Agriculture is currently researching the use of vinegar as an organic herbicide at its research facility in Beltsville, Maryland. Results so far are very promising and have shown that using vinegars with 10,15, or 20% acetic acid concentrations have had an 80 to 100% kill-rate with common weeds. Common household vinegar with 5% acetic concentration has successfully killed top growth of Canada Thistle, one of North Americas most noxious widely-spread weeds. However, regrowth from roots did occur. To achieve the best results in eliminating Canada Thistle, spray very young plants every couple of weeks with household vinegar (5%). You can buy high concentration acetic acid vinegar at farm supply Stores. Vinegar sold specifically for home- canning purposes also has an acetic acid concentration higher than 5%. Using environmentally safe herbicides will help keep our lakes and streams clean. Page 6 Page 7 Corcoran Parks and Trails Commission and Northwest Jaycee’s Team Up For Annual Tree Give-a-way As in the past several years the Parks and Trails Commission will be giving away shade tree saplings to Corcoran residents in a project purchased, with funds donated by the Northwest Jaycee’s. Varieties selected this year include Common Lilac, Red Maple, Sugar Maple, Red Oak, Black Hills Spruce, Colorado Spruce and Paper Birch. These trees will be given away at the City Park skating rinks /warming house shelter located at 20200 CO RD 50; the date is yet to be determined. In an effort to increase distribution of these trees Parks and Trail will accept or- ders for up to five trees as long as the supply lasts. To order or for more information and delivery date, email Tom Anderson at trees4corcoran@yahoo.com or call 763-428-2559. For your larger projects you can order additional trees from Wright County Soil and Water Conservation District. Its web address is http://www.wrightswcd.org. The cost of the trees is about $1.10 each, but they need to be or- dered in bundles of 25. There are 25 different trees and shrubs available, with varieties selected to grow in a wide variety of soils and sun conditions. Also available this year to purchase are Yard Packets – a set of 4 Princeton Elms (which is Dutch Elm resistant) and Autumn Blaze Maples for $29.36 plus tax. Corcoran residents who would like to purchase larger bare root trees and shrubs are welcome to order through the City of Plymouth web site: http://www.plymouthmn.gov .Prices vary from $7 to $45 depending on variety. LOOKING FOR GARDENERS PARKS AND TRAILS COMMISSION ESTABLISHES A GARDENING CLUB It's time for Corcoran to start a Community-based Garden Club! Corcoran has many fine gardens and many experienced gardeners but most of us do not know each other - which is unfortunate, because gardeners are an interest- ing bunch. The spring is a great time to divide perennials that have been in the ground for three years or more. Hostas, hydrangeas, coneflower, rudbeckia, phlox, forget-me-nots, se- dum, daylilies and so many more are easily divided now. As the City develops it will also needs a little help with its gardens. Hav- ing volunteers do some gardening and share their knowledge at City Hall, especially in the Memorial Garden, and at the City Park, would en- hance the beauty of these areas and the City. In January at a Parks & Trails Commission meeting, it was agreed to organize a gardening club. Chair Tom Anderson is taking the lead to meet, greet and talk about what we would like our club help do as volunteers for the community. This is a great project for families, groups or individuals. If you are interested in participating or learning more, please send an email to Tom Anderson at tom.thegardener@yahoo.com or call 763-428-2559.

Page 10 Information Submitted By Deb Weinand 2015 State Building Code Update The State of Minnesota has adopted a new 2015 Building Code, effective this year. This includes the International Code Council’s 2012 Residential Code and Building Code, among others, as well as Minnesota provisions and amendments and referenced documents. The Residential Code has already gone into effect (January and February) and the Building Code (commercial/Industrial) should go into effect over the next few months. We plan to work closely with our residents and contractors as we all learn to practically apply these new codes in real life. There are a number of changes that will effect project planning, plan review and permitting, construction, and inspection. Please bear with us as we make the necessary changes to our handouts, website information, and procedures. If you have any questions regarding new code requirements, please contact Metro West Inspection Services at: 763-479-1720, or the State of Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry Construction Codes and Licensing Division at: 651-284-5012 or 1-800-657-3944 or visit their website at: http://www.dli.mn.gov/Ccld.asp. Here you can view many of the new codes, find fact sheets, FAQs, and contact information for specific questions. A big change that has received a lot of attention is the requirement that new single family homes must install a residential automatic fire sprinkler system. This only applies to new construction homes over 4,500 square feet and does not apply to additions on existing homes. There are also a number of changes to the Energy Code. Another big change is: One-story detached accessory structures (sheds) not exceeding 200 square feet are now exempt from building permit. (Previously 120 square feet.) Although these structures are exempt from permit, they must still meet building code, setbacks, and zoning requirements. If there are any questions or concerns please contact Code Compliance Official Mike Pritchard at 763-400-7033. Permits/Fees The City’s most requested building permit fees: Reroofing, Re-siding $95 each permit Windows (in same openings) $95 General Plumbing $55 Gas Fireplace $105 Furnace or A/C unit $80/unit Water Heater $25 and Water Softener $20 *All of the above fees include the State Surcharge ($5) and can be issued “over-the-counter” at City Hall. Reminder: Fences over 7’ in height require a building permit. Any fence to be constructed within 6’ of a property line requires a zoning application and review.
