*MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF MARCH 1, 2004, APPROVED Motion made by
Member Masica and seconded by Member Hovland, approving the Minutes of the Regular
Meeting of the Edina City Council for March 1,2004.
Motion carried on rollcall vote-three ayes.
RESOLUTION NO. 2004-24 APPROVING SOUND WALL MITIGATION IMPROVEMENT NO.
SA-10 Affidavits of Notice were presented, approved and ordered placed on file.
Engineer Presentation
City Engineer Houle explained the proposed project had been initiated by staff as opposed to a
petitioned project. He said that originally the intent was to construct a sound mitigation wall along
both the east and west sides of Trunk Highway 100 from the Minnehaha Creek to West 44th Street. Mr.
Houle reported an informational meeting had been held with affected property owners March 8,2004,
for potential improvements on both the east and west sides of TH100. He stated east side owners
requested a re-analysis of their assessment area which will necessitate another public improvement
hearing for the east portion for SA-11 at a later date. Therefore,Mr. Houle said he would only address
the west side of Trunk Highway 100 for Project No.SA-10.
Page 2
Minutes/Edina City Council/March 16,2004
Mr. Houle explained Improvement No.SA-10 would consist of the construction of a sound wall along
the west side of TH 100 from Minnehaha Creek to West 44th Street. Mr. Houle reviewed a graphic
depiction illustrating the proposed location of the sound mitigation wall. He said the cost of this
construction would be approximately$275,000,which would be financed through special assessments
to the benefited properties as allowed by M.S 429. Mr. Houle added that MnDOT had verbally
agreed to fund the engineering and construction administration costs for the project since they intend
to construct a sound wall north of West 44th Street. He said the special assessments would be based
upon a three tiered "per residential equivalent unit" including the immediate neighborhood for a
term of 15 years. Mr. Houle noted the project would be constructed in 2005 and concluded that staff
believed the project was feasible from an engineering standpoint.
Mr. Houle introduced Peter Wasko, Transportation Specialist Noise Abatement/Air Quality, with
MnDOT.
Member Masica asked how interest rates for special assessments were derived. Mr. Hughes
explained that cities were allowed to charge,as an interest rate,the cost of their most recent bond plus
two percent,which for this improvement would be 6.5 percent.
Member Hovland asked if the intent were to move forward also with a similar project on the east side
of Trunk Highway 100. Mr. Houle explained that the residents had requested a re-analysis of the area
to be assessed. He said he anticipated completing the re-analysis, then setting an improvement
hearing,followed by the special assessment hearing before construction would begin on either side of
the highway.
Public Comment
Ken Hanson, 4601 Cascade Lane, urged the Council to order the improvement. He stated his
backyard abutted the highway and they cannot wait until the wall was built and they can get out into
their yard. Mr. Hanson said he took an informal neighborhood survey and the overwhelming
consensus was favorable for the improvement. He presented a petition signed by sixteen property
owners encouraging approval of the proposed improvement project.
Bruce Berendts, 4501 North Avenue, asked what the magnitude of savings would be with MnDOT's
involvement by providing Engineering and Construction Administration. Mr. Houle answered that
he believed this would save approximately 25 percent of the estimated overall project cost,but added
that already had been reflected in the $275,000 construction cost estimate.
Mary Hartupee,5016 Edinbrook Lane, asked why the proposed improvement project was stopping at
Minnehaha Creek. She stated she hoped eventually the sound wall would eventually come down all
the way to 50th Street.
Peter Wasko, MnDOT Transportation Specialist explained that the Minnehaha Creek Bridge would
not be able to handle the load of the sound abatement wall. He added the wall could be continued if
and when the bridge was reconstructed.
Peter Sherman, 5001 Moore Avenue, explained he was among the first tier of property owners for the
proposed special assessment to construct the sound wall. Mr. Sherman said that he supported the
project. However, he expressed concern that a similar project would have cost $5,000 five years ago
and now he will be charged $18,000. He asked that the City contribute something to mitigate citizen
costs similarly to what was done for residents along McCauley Trail.

Minutes/Edina City Council/March 16,2004
Member Hovland asked if something could be done with MnDOT south of Minnehaha Creek. Mr.
Wasko replied MnDOT could look into this area, but he cautioned that time was growing short to
make the construction season. He said that he would investigate and report back to the City on the
possibility of additional work. Member Hovland thanked MnDOT for their involvement and stated it
would be terrific to finish the entire project at this time if possible.
Member Hovland made a motion closing the public hearing.Member Kelly seconded the motion.

ORDINANCE NO. 2004-03 - AMENDING SECTION 700 ADDING PROVISIONS FOR
COMMUNITY HEALTH COMMITTEE Mr. Velde explained in 1976, legislation allowing the
creation of Community Health Boards was passed in Minnesota. Legislation required each city or
county that formed a community health board also create an advisory committee. The advisory
committee was charged with advising the Community Health Board relating to the development,
maintenance,funding and evaluation of community health services in their jurisdiction.
Mr. Velde stated that during the 2003 legislative session, the 1976 law was amended and no longer
requires an advisory committee for the Community Health Board. However, the statute does allow a
local Community Health Board the option of creating an advisory committee.
Mr. Velde explained the proposed Ordinance amendment would allow creation of an Edina
Community Health Committee, consisting of seven members and one student member. The Mayor,
with the consent of the Council, would appoint the members for three-year terms. The student
member would be appointed for a one-year term. All members would be residents of Edina. There
would be term limits of six consecutive years of membership. Membership would consist of both
consumers and providers of health services, if feasible.
