Minutes/Edina City Council/May 6,2014
V.B. GRANDVIEW RESIDENTIAL SURVEY FINAL REPORT, BILL MORRIS AND PETER LEATHERMAN,
MORRIS LEATHERMAN COMPANY—RECEIVED
Bill Morris, Morris Leatherman Company, presented highlights of the Grandview Residential Survey final
report that involved 400 random Edina households with a non-response rate of less than 3%. The survey
related to the development of the Grandview area and values that residents held for public lands in
general. Dr. Morris stated that the survey results indicated the public needs more information about the
Grandview Redevelopment Framework, there is support for mixed use with emphasis on the "public side
of things" and "intense opposition"to apartments,and a referendum for a general obligation bond-funded
community center would not pass at this point in time.
The Council reviewed the survey results, asked questions of Mr. Morris, and thanked Mr. Morris and Mr.
Leatherman for their work on this report.
VI. PUBLIC HEARINGS HELD—Affidavits of Notice presented and ordered placed on file.
VI.A. ORDINANCE NO. 2014-06 — AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER 10, ARTICLE 111 OF THE CITY CODE,
REGARDING TREE PRESERVATION—TABLED
Planning Commission Working Group Presentation
Planning Commissioner Platteter described the consideration of the Working Group and recommendation
for an ordinance amendment addressing tree preservation and replacement for demolition permits,
building additions, and building accessory structures. Planning Commissioner Platteter answered
questions of the Council relating to the recommendation for a 2-for-1 tree replacement requirement,
caliper requirement for replacement of a significant tree, definition of replacement trees and protected
trees, ability to enforce, methods of application, and option to define a basic removal area (i.e., within ten
feet of the building pad). Planning Commissioner Platteter advised of input from builders in opposition to
this amendment and suggested the City consider a boulevard (public space) strategy to maintain tree
canopy.
The Council agreed with the importance of finding balance points between property rights and protection
of the City's tree canopy. The option was raised to regulate by listing trees that were not allowed, instead
of listing trees that were acceptable, in an effort to provide more flexibility for replacement tree species.
Community Development Director Teague stated staff received a landscape plan associated with a building
permit but generally, when a site was cleared for construction, the property owner replanted trees that
were removed, though of a smaller caliper. He addressed the issue of staffing, noting the City Forester
works 34 hours a week and had indicated enforcement of this ordinance amendment would require an
additional part-time staff position.
Mayor Hovland opened the public hearing at 8:32 p.m.
Public Testimony
Lori Grotz, 5513 Park Place,addressed the Council.
Pam Starkey, 5331 Oaklawn Avenue,addressed the Council.
Dianne Plunkett Latham, 7013 Comanche Court, addressed the Council.
Frank Lorenz, 7151 York Avenue South, Unit 720, addressed the Council.
Member Swenson made a motion,seconded by Member Brindle,to close the public hearing.
Ayes: Bennett, Brindle,Sprague, Swenson, Hovland
Motion carried.

Minutes/Edina City Council/May 6,2014
Forester Horwath addressed issues raised during public testimony relating to cost and timing to replant a
large tree, potential City liability if regulating tree placement, and difficult predictability of tree impact. He
recommended including the State of Minnesota list of invasive trees within the ordinance. Mr. Horwath
stated his concern relating to the amount of time enforcement would require and indicated he had not
found tree replacement to be a major concern as property owners were not often cutting down significant
trees unnecessarily.
The Council continued discussion of the amendment and asked questions of Mr.Teague and Mr. Neal. The
Council discussed the merits of the Minnetonka tree preservation ordinance in terms of clarity of
definitions, reasonable scope, and general tree protection standards in addition to preservation rules. The
Council expressed support for the concept of a tree preservation ordinance and asked for additional staff
input on the most logical method to preserve the City's tree canopy, whether home additions should be
excluded, how to define a basic removal radius, whether lot size should be a factor in terms of
replacement ratios, how to limit the City's costs, and boulevard replanting strategy. Member Sprague
made a motion, seconded by Member Brindle, tabling consideration of Ordinance No. 2014-06,
Amendment to Chapter 10, Article III of the City Code, Regarding Tree Preservation, to a future Work
Session.
Ayes: Bennett, Brindle,Sprague,Swenson, Hovland
Motion carried.
VI.B. COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN AMENDMENT, PRELIMINARY PUD REZONING, PRELIMINARY
DEVELOPMENT PLAN, LENNAR CORPORATION, 6725 YORK AVENUE AND 6712, 6708, 6704, 6700,
AND 6628 XERXES AVENUE—RESOLUTIONS NO.2014-51 AND 2014-52—ADOPTED
Mayor Hovland recognized elected Richfield officials who were in attendance.
Community Development Director Presentation
Mr.Teague presented the request of Lennar Corporation for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change
the building height from four stories and 48 feet to six stories and 70 feet;floor area ratio from 1.0 to 1.27;
and, reguiding the Land Use Plan for the five single-family homes from Low Density Residential to
Community Activity Center. He reported on concerns of Richfield residents on the east side of Xerxes
Avenue with the proposed setbacks. It was noted the traffic study concluded the existing roadways and
parking could support this project and recommended creating a left turn into the site on York Avenue.
Mr. Teague advised that the Planning Commission recommended, on a split vote, approval of the
Comprehensive Plan Amendment and denial of the Preliminary Rezoning and Preliminary Development
Plan based on the layout of the project. Mr. Teague indicated the proponent had revised the plans by
reducing the size of the retail space; expanding the width of the boulevard along York Avenue, shifting the
entire building ten feet to the west; and, creating additional setbacks (eight feet) on the top floor corners
of the building facing Xerxes Avenue. Staff recommended approval of the Comprehensive Plan
Amendment, Preliminary Rezoning, and Preliminary Development Plan per the findings and conditions as
outlined in the draft resolutions. If approved, the developer would be required to return for Final
Rezoning to PUD; Final Development Plan; and, Ordinance amendment creating the new PUD District. In
addition, a City Code amendment would be needed to allow R-1 property to be considered for a PUD.
The Council addressed the indication of the Edina Housing Foundation that 20% affordable housing was a
trigger for federal money and the Council had expressed interest in pursuing that type of project where
funding could be maximized.
Proponent Presentation
Peter Chmielewski described projects undertaken and managed by Lennar Corporation.

Minutes/Edina City Council/May 6,2014
Aaron Roseth, ESG Architects, presented the project, described revisions to the overall scheme, and
indicated that from the perspective of urban design and City building perspectives, this project offered an
incredible opportunity to redevelop large parking spaces and outdated mall spaces into a viable walkable
commercial node.
Mr. Chmielewski reviewed past consideration of this project and described revisions made to address
concerns raised including those expressed by the Mayor and citizens of Richfield, noting it had pushed this
project to the edge of viability. He indicated this project met or exceeded the 12 conditions of the PUD
and asked that approval not include Condition 8 requiring 10%affordable housing.
The Council asked questions of Mr. Roseth relating to the height of a project he designed for St. Paul's
Grand Avenue and of Mr. Roseth and Mr. Chmielewski relating to landscaping components proposed with
this project and setback distances. Mr. Teague stated the six-story Lyndale Garden project had a setback
of about 35 feet from the street with the drive aisle and parking spaces creating separation from single-
unit residential properties. The six-story Vernon Terrace project had a setback of 35 feet to the lot line.
Mr.Teague advised of concerns expressed by Richfield staff and support to shift the building to the west.
Mr. Knutson advised it was appropriate for the Council to review this request on a preliminary basis and if
the rezoning to PUD was not allowed, it would not be finally rezoned. Mr. Teague described Edina's
required setbacks depending on the zoning of the property, which for a PCD-3 zoning district adjacent to
an R-1 single dwelling unit district required that a six story building be set back twice its height from the
nearest lot line of the nearest R-1 property. He stated that the required setback from Edina single dwelling
unit properties for the proposed building would be 140 feet; the six-story portion of the building was
proposed to be set back 122 feet from the nearest lot line of the homes across Xerxes Avenue in Richfield.
Mayor Hovland opened the public hearing at 10:09 p.m.

Mr. Neal addressed tax ramifications to the Richfield School District and indicated if the project was
assessed at $25 million, it would yield $530,000 of new property taxes with $200,000 to the City and
between$175,000 to$250,000 to the Richfield School District.
Mr. Roseth and Mr. Chmielewski addressed issues raised during public testimony relating to impact of
vehicle headlight pollution on Xerxes Avenue South, points of building entrance, areas of resident and
visitor parking, 100% stormwater management (via tanks and grit chambers), increased permeability, and
pedestrian connections between Xerxes and York Avenues.
Chuck Rickart, WSB & Associates on behalf of the City of Edina, answered questions of the Council and
indicated that Xerxes Avenue was not considered in the traffic study as the proposed plan did not include a
point of access on Xerxes Avenue. He also commented on sidewalk and crosswalk locations.
Mr.Teague stated the setback was about 105 feet from the edge of the building to the north property line
(south edge of the park). Mr. Roseth described the finding of the shadow study and impact to five houses
across the street. The Council suggested the landscape plan along Xerxes Avenue include a mixture of
plantings and tree species. Mr. Teague reviewed the past and current zoning classification of the Wickes
property.
The Council acknowledged the height limit west of France Avenue and east of Xerxes Avenue was set at
four stories in 2005-2006 with the creation of the Westin Hotel. Member Swenson introduced and moved
adoption of Resolution No. 2014-51, Approving a Comprehensive Plan Amendment Regarding Building
Height,Floor Area Ratio,and Land Use. Member Sprague seconded the motion.
Concern was expressed relating to the proposed setback from properties in Richfield and desire for Edina
to be a 'good neighbor' to its bordering communities. The Council discussed the varying heights in this
area and benefit of the redevelopment project to improve the streetscape, create connectivity, benefit of
using podium height, and positive precedence set for York Avenue. The Council reviewed the
considerations made to address the concerns expressed by the City of Richfield and to assure the project
fit the neighborhood well.
