increase in aircraft noise due to additional flight activity at lower altitudes to the west and northwest of the
airport. He answered questions on the opportunity for Edina to participate in public dialogue and
communication, upcoming public MAC meetings, neighboring airports in the MSP area, and the potential
for use of outstate airports, perhaps in conjunction with rail connections.

Mr. Houle addressed issues raised during public testimony relating to drainage, indicating under the
proposed ordinance applicants would be required to submit a stormwater management plan signed off by a
professional engineer. He answered questions of the City Council on potential options to address drainage
and commented on the software system used to model capacity.
Mayor Hovland addressed issues raised during public testimony relating to height, indicating language
included in the proposed ordinance stated that the maximum height to the highest point on a roof of a
single or double dwelling would be 30 feet. For lots that exceed 75 feet in width, the maximum height to
the ridge line would be 35 feet. He noted there were exceptions included in the language, but the
maximum height would be 40 feet, depending on the width of the lot.
Member Sprague addressed issues raised in a resident's letter and verified with City Attorney Knutson that
his profession in the real estate industry was not considered a conflict of interest that would require
recusing himself from the vote on the proposed ordinance amendment.
There was discussion on positions of support and opposition to each of the proposed issues/solutions
addressed in the proposed ordinance. Member Sprague made a motion to grant First Reading to
Ordinance No. 2013-7 Zoning Ordinance Amendment Regarding the R-1 & R-2 Zoning District
Requirements For Building Coverage,Setback Height And General Regulations,according to the following
on each of the outlined issues/solutions: 1) Drainage, Retaining Walls, Egress Window and Site Access:

the garage may not extend beyond the front building line by more than five (5) feet; 7)
Nonconforming Front Yard Setback: eliminate; 8) Garage Stall Requirement: eliminate; 9) Miscellaneous
Code Revisions "Clean Up": no change; with a delayed implementation timeline to be determined.
Member Brindle seconded the motion.
There was additional discussion on positions of support and opposition to each of the proposed
issues/solutions addressed in the proposed ordinance.
Member Sprague made a motion, seconded by Member Brindle to amend the motion on the floor to
include sidewall articulation requirements as recommended by staff in the proposed ordinance.
Staff was directed to provide the following information for discussion at second reading: recommendation
on the delayed implementation timeline; data on garage door height; and, potential for limits on the
number of tear downs occurring simultaneously on one street.
Member Bennett stated that by eliminating the second story setback but not increasing side yard setbacks,
the Council was voting to actually allow greater building mass.She added that she supported changes in
egress window setbacks and back yard access, but that the motion was not responding to widespread
concerns about mass and drainage.
Ayes: Brindle,Sprague, Swenson, Hovland
Nays: Bennett
Motion carried.
VI.B. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT& VARIANCES, ALLOW FIRST FLOOR ELEVATION OF MORE THAN ONE
FOOT ABOVE EXISTING FLOOR AND SETBACK VARIANCES FROM ARROWHEAD LANE AND INDIAN
HILLS ROAD, 6612 INDIAN HILLS ROAD, EDINA, MALCOLM LIEPKE, RESOLUTION NO. 2013-57 -
ADOPTED
Assistant Planner Presentation
Assistant Planner Aaker stated that the proponent was proposing to tear down the existing house and
construct a new home at 6612 Indian Hills Road. She presented the request of the proponent for a
Conditional Use Permit and Variances to allow the first floor elevation of the new home to exceed the first
floor elevation of the existing home by more than one foot. The intent was to raise the first floor elevation
3.8 feet above the existing entry elevation; 2.8 feet above the allowable limit. The front entry of the
existing home was at 900.2 feet with an allowed increase in height by code to 901.2 feet. The proposed
height of the first floor for the new home would be at 904 feet. There was a higher main level front entry
to the existing multi-level home that was at 904.3 feet, which was slightly higher than the proposed first
floor, (904). Ms. Aaker explained that setback variances were also requested from Arrowhead Lake. The
request was for an 8.67 foot setback Variance from Arrowhead Lake to locate the new home 4.22 feet
farther back from the Lake than the existing home. A 25-foot setback Variance was requested to allow
terrace area to be 50 feet from Arrowhead Lake. A 3.08-foot setback from Indian Hills Road was requested
for a minor point intrusion of the sub-grade garage.
Ms. Aaker stated the Planning Commission had a motion offered recommending approval of the Variances
and Conditional Use Permit requested; however, that motion failed by an even split vote. The proponent
revised the plan since Planning Commission review and reduced the footprint of the building, which
reduced the amount of Variances requested from Arrowhead Lake and the front yard setback Variances
needed from Indian Hills Road. She stated staff recommended that approval of the Variances and
Conditional Use Permit be subject to the conditions included in the staff report.

Christian Dean,Architect, discussed the project plans and answered questions of the City Council relating to
drainage and permeable paver materials planned for the lower terrace. He noted that drainage on the lot
would be improved with the rebuild.
Mayor Hovland opened the public hearing.
Public Testimony
No one appeared to comment.
Member Swenson made a motion,seconded by Member Brindle,to close the public hearing.
Ayes: Bennett, Brindle,Sprague, Swenson, Hovland
Motion carried.
Member Swenson introduced and moved adoption of Resolution No. 2013-57, Conditional Use Permit &
Variances,Allow First Floor Elevation of More Than One Foot Above Existing Floor And Setback Variances
From Arrowhead Lane And Indian Hills Road,6612 Indian Hills Road, Edina, Malcolm Liepke, based on the
following findings:
1. The proposal meets the Conditional Use Permit conditions of the Zoning Ordinance Section
850.04,Subd E.
2. The proposal will keep the new first floor at approximately the same height as the existing
main level of the home.
3. The proposed home is in character within this neighborhood.There are a variety of housing
styles throughout the Indian Hills neighborhood.There have been a number of properties that
have had homes re-built on them that are of similar or are larger in size, mass and scale.
4. The proposal would meet the required standards for a variance, because:
The improvements would provide a reasonable use of a corner lot subjected to two front yard
setbacks.
a. The proposed home would uphold the established front setback pattern already existing on the
block. The setback proposed for the home from Arrowhead Lake would be farther back from the
lake edge than the existing home. Because of the angle of setback from the lake,only a small
portion of the terrace extends beyond the setback of the existing home.
b. The setback from Indian Hills Road is for a minor point intrusion of the subgrade garage.The
intrusion is a small triangular over-lap into the setback.
c. The home is appropriate in size and scale for the 49,079 square foot lot.The home is designed to
be low profile and to fit within the existing topography.The neighbor to the east has a "no build"
lot between their lot and the new home limiting impact to the east.
d. The practical difficulties include the steep slopes on the lot,the irregular shape of the lot,and the
required setbacks based on the adjacent home,which has an 80-foot front yard setback,and the
75 foot setback required from Arrowhead Lake.
e. This lot is subjected to much deeper setbacks than a typical single dwelling lot.
f. The first floor is defined by the entry level of a multi-level home instead of defined by the existing
main floor of the current home.There are two entry doors along the front elevation with one at a
higher elevation than the proposed first floor.The proposed first floor will match what is
considered the main floor of the multi-level home.
g. The purpose behind the ordinance is to maintain an adequate distance from water bodies.The
ordinance is meant to prevent a continual erosion of the setback standards. Duplicating the lake
setback of the existing home would not compromise the intent of the ordinance to provide
spacing from a natural resource.The new home will be 4.22 feet farther back from the lake than
the existing home.The new home is low profile with a flat roof and would be elevated above the
lake.
And subject to the following conditions:
1. The site must be developed and maintained in conformance with the following plans:
Page 5
Minutes/Edina City Council/July 16,2013
• Site Plan dated June 7,2013
• Grading and Erosion control Plan dated June 6,2013.
• Landscape Plan dated July 8,2013.
• Building plans and elevations dated June 7,2013.
2. Submit a copy of the Nine Mile Creek Watershed District permit if required. The City may require
revisions to the approved plans to meet the district's requirements.
3. Final grading and drainage plans are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer prior to
issuance of a building permit. Drainage patterns may not be directed to adjacent properties.
4. The execution and recording of a Conservation Restriction 50 feet upland from the Ordinary High
Water level of Arrowhead Lake.
Member Sprague seconded the motion.
Member Bennett stated that she thought the variance process was more appropriate than the conditional
use permit process for this type of application, given that the elimination of variances ordered by the
Minnesota Supreme Court was no longer in effect.Attorney Knutson concurred and stated that the Council
could, in future,change the ordinance.
Ayes: Bennett, Brindle,Sprague,Swenson, Hovland
Motion carried.
VII. COMMUNITY COMMENT
No one appeared to comment.
Vlll. REPORTS/RECOMMENDATIONS
VIII.A. PRIORITY USE POLICY FOR BRAEMAR ARENA-CONTINUED
Parks and Recreation Director Kattreh reported that Braemar Arena had been the home to the Braemar
City of Lakes Figure Skating Club (BCLFSC) and the Edina Hockey Association (EHA) since opening in 1967.
Over the years programs and demand for ice had grown and the demand for prime season ice had also
consistently been stretched. Braemar Arena was currently able to meet approximately 94%of ice needs for
BCLFSC, but less than 50%of the ice needs for the EHA. Member Kattreh discussed the ice use by BCLFSC
and the EHA. She provided an overview of the recommended Priority Use Policy for Braemar Arena,
outlining priorities 1 through S. She outlined options 1 through 4 for ice allocation, advising that the
recommendation was to utilize Option #3, which would reduce BCLFSC's hours by 10.75 hours per week or
201 hours per season.This would recognize the longstanding relationship with the BCLFSC, but also provide
the EHA with priority scheduling and a few additional ice hours. BCLFSC would maintain 71%of their hours
at Braemar for a total of 500 hours per season.
Ms. Kattreh answered questions of the City Council relating to the Park Board discussion and minutes on
this topic, clarifying that the Park Board no longer takes formal action by adopting motions on items that
would be presented to the City Council for formal action.
There was discussion on fees paid by BCLFSC to use Braemar Arena, the potentially higher percentage of
younger resident figure skaters in the "Learn to Skate" program, notification to the EHA and BSLFSC on the
proposed Priority Use Policy as a City Council agenda item, delaying adoption of the Policy to allow for the
heads of the EHA and BSLFSC to work out a compromise, sport diversity, priority access to associations
maintaining the established percentage of Edina residents, and Braemar Arena being an enterprise and
taxpayer supported facility.
Staff was directed to provide the following information at the next discussion on the proposed policy:
additional information on the Park Board discussion on this topic, potential alternate locations for ice time
rental by BCLFSC, what age/skill level of hockey players would be allocated additional ice time if it were
granted to the EHA, and additional information about prime-season and off-season ice rental.
Page 6
Minutes/Edina City Council/July 16,2013
Member Brindle made a motion, seconded by member Bennett, continuing the Priority Use Policy for
Braemar Arena to the August 5,2013 City Council meeting with the heads of the EHA and BCLFSC to meet
with City staff present in an attempt to reach a compromise on ice use.
Ayes: Bennett, Brindle,Sprague, Swenson, Hovland
Motion carried.
It was noted that a topic for the Park Board to discuss would be the potential need for an additional sheet
of ice in the City.
VIII.B. RESOLUTION NO. 2013-55 CLARIFYING THE INCLUSION OF A PARCEL LIST OF THE TAX INCREMENT
FINANCING PLAN FOR THE SOUTHDALE 2 TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT-ADOPTED
Economic Development Manager Neuendorf explained that on April 17, 2012, the City and HRA approved
Resolutions 2012-58 and HRA 2012-4 to establish the Southdale 2 Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District.
The approved plan included both a map defining the boundaries of the District and a list of parcels included
in the District. Recent review of the document identified an inadvertent omission in the parcel list. One of
the units at the Westin Galleria hotel and condominiums was included in the map but omitted from the list.
The missing unit was the Westin hotel, parcel number 29-028-24-34-0115. The proposed resolution would
clarify that this parcel was included within the Southdale 2 TIF District. Inclusion within the TIF District
would not change the assessed valuation or the tax rate of the property. This clarification would be
forwarded to the Hennepin County Assessor's Office.
Member Swenson introduced and moved adoption of Resolution No.2013-55,clarifying the inclusion of a
parcel list of the Tax Increment Financing Plan for the Southdale 2 Tax Increment Financing District.
Member Bennett seconded the motion.
Ayes: Bennett, Brindle,Sprague,Swenson, Hovland
Motion carried.
