Motion carried. IV. Approval Of Meeting Minutes Motion was made by member Bass and seconded by member Olson approving the edited June 16, 2016, minutes. All voted aye. Motion carried. V. Special Recognitions And Presentations A. Southdale Area Transportation Study Mr. Chuck Rickart, traffic engineer with WSB & Associates, presented the final study. Mr. Rickart reviewed the purpose of the study which included updating the existing traffic model, updating the transportation planning model, transportation analysis of land use density scenarios, and review and analyze pedestrian/bicycle connections. He reviewed the study process, noting where changes were made since the April 21 presentation which included updating the existing Average Daily Traffic volumes, adding transit usage to the 2040 Forecasts, and adding the Pedestrian and Bicycle Network Analysis. Mr. Rickart said the Pedestrian and Bicycle Network Analysis present challenges because of a lack of dedicated facilities. He said the Bike, Comp and Sidewalk Plans have proposed facilities. Mr. Rickart said the study’s recommendations are: 1. Intersections improvements (signal timing, turn lane geometry, new traffic signal); 2. Enhance/expand the pedestrian/bike network in the Southdale area; 3. Balance roadway improvements with pedestrian/bike improvements; continue to work with developers to improve pedestrian/bike conditions; 4. Continue to work with Southdale and the Galleria to improve their pedestrian/bike facility. Discussion • Was any scenario planning done? Mr. Rickart said scenario planning was noted in the 2030 Comp Plan for commercial properties and it was increased for residential properties in the 2040 Forecast. • There is a draft Small Area Plan for the Southdale area that recommends making the block size smaller; should this be included in the study as anticipated change? Mr. Rickart said it was discussed and they decided not to include it because it is not an approved plan. Planner Nolan added they could find a way to include the principle of the plan. • How are pedestrians factored in with intersections Level of Service (LOS)? Mr. Rickart said they are already included so that pedestrians can cross in one traffic signal cycle and it is factored in as a percentage of traffic volume. Including this information in the study was suggested. Draft Minutes☒ Approved Minutes☐ Approved Date: 2 • The Nine Mile Trail wasn’t included and it would be helpful to include it. Planner Nolan said the crossing will be at Gallagher Drive. • Was employment forecasting for the major employers in the area identified? This is related to concerns about potential redevelopment at W. 69th Street near the water tower. Mr. Rickart said not specifically. He said he worked with planner Teague on residential redevelopment forecasting and while this was their focus, they assumed increases in employment and traffic. He said the study considered development at W. 69th Street because a restaurant was proposed for that area. • Is the next step to seek Council approval? Not necessarily, said planner Nolan, but the study may be given to the Council informationally. He said the information will be used to update the Comp Plan, used for future planning, and is available to traffic engineers when evaluating sites for redevelopment. • Mr. Rickart was asked to explain intersections LOS which range from A-F. Mr. Rickart said similar to letter grades in school, each intersection gets a rating based on wait time at the intersection. He said in urban areas like Edina, a certain amount of wait time is acceptable. • The study conclusion states small, low cost improvements can make a difference, are these quantified in the model in terms of LOS improvements? No, said Mr. Rickart because the improvements are specific for each intersection. If the improvements are low cost, why not make the improvements now and improve the LOS? Planner Nolan said the LOS ratings are degradation that will happen over time and staff will plan for improvements by including them in the Capital Improvement Plan. VI. Community Comment None. VII. Reports/Recommendations A. Discussion with Edina Police Department Representative Sgt. Dan Conboy explained that each month they pick a topic to focus on as part of their Focus In program that focuses more on educating the public rather than writing citations. He said they’ve changed the name to Directive Patrol Initiative with a goal of being more visible on foot and in squads. He said in January, they focused on bars, restaurants and hotels because more people are inside. April and August they focused on residential neighborhoods on foot, on bikes and in squads. Chair LaForce asked if there is anything that his department is working on related to the ETC. Sgt. Conboy said one main issue for them has been construction related traffic and being asked to assist in routing traffic per engineering detour plans. He said they haven’t figured out a way to make this work yet and the upcoming TH- 169 closure will probably be problematic the first few weeks. He said residents have already contacted them about several options that would be difficult to enforce, e.g. installing local traffic only signs and monitoring if drivers are local traffic. He said the police are considering speed bumps to slow drivers and they’ve also discussed directing traffic but this is an expensive option. Discussion • Whose responsibility was it to inform the public about the TH-169 project, and should this communication begin now? Can information be posted to the City’s website? Sgt. Conboy said he didn’t know the answers. • At the April 19, 2016, City Council meeting, MnDOT staff presented the TH-169 project including timeline, closures and detour routes. The meeting can be viewed online. • A certain percentage of drivers will follow the detour route; others will use software like Google Maps to find alternative routes. Is there a way to create a filter that would block alternative routes? Sgt. Conboy said he did not know if this could be done. • Can information on the upcoming closure be posted to the City’s homepage? • How are priorities made for enforcement, e.g. the complaint is that the police is always doing traffic enforcement on TH-100 but not in neighborhoods. Sgt. Conboy said enforcements are based on complaints. He said complaints are logged and officers must patrol those areas a minimum of five times daily. Draft Minutes☒ Approved Minutes☐ Approved Date: 3 • Vehicles stop in the crosswalks on France Avenue, is this monitored and enforced? Sgt. Conboy said he was not aware that this was an issue so calling in to register complaints helps. • Do you have matrix or goals that you are tracking? Sgt. Conboy said he’s not aware they have goals but they are tracking what each officer is doing. • Is this information shared with staff or City Council? Sgt. Conboy said it is available. • Sgt. Conboy said there are four traffic officers and complaints can be called in to 952-826-1600. B. 2016 Work Plan Updates Member Bass said she reached out to Strong Towns and is waiting to hear back about organizing a speaker/ session. Member Miranda said he’s been researching Hennepin and Ramsey counties Bike and Pedestrian Plan and they both have something called Active Living which is new to him. Member Loeffelholz said for the Southdale Circulator, he researched Metro Transit bus routes and it looks like they could request minor changes from Metro Transit to provide coverage using existing routes, including a route to the SW Light Rail. Chair LaForce said at the work session, it seemed to him that the City Council wanted a circulator that would travel up and down France Avenue. Discussion • City of Northfield may be pursuing a route that would go towards St. Paul (away from Edina). • Pursue the circulator and light rail because they serve different needs. • How should we proceed with light rail planning based on what we heard from the City Council at the recent work session? • The City Council had two opinions on passenger rail: 1) get Edina connected to SW Light Rail; and 2) get Edina connected to the south. • The southern cities are planning for passenger rail that would go towards St. Paul and this will take longer, but it sounds like the City Council is interested in a shorter connection. • Frame up the issues and involve the public. • The City Council does not have control over regional rail planning. • The City Council does not seem to know what they want. • The City Council does not have control over regional planning but they could take leadership and advocate for light rail. • Seemed like the City Council was asking the ETC to see how the community feels about light rail to see if they should commit staff time and resources towards it. • Discuss what the public engagement should be at the next ETC meeting. • Public engagement requires a budget. • We first need to know the plan or method of engagement to see if a budget is needed. • Do we need a working group to focus on this? • Forming a working group requires certain conditions including representation from the public; a committee would just be members of the ETC. • For clarity, the ETC was not advocating for or against light rail at this time, but was to remain neutral. Motion was made by member Janovy and seconded by member Bass to form a committee to formulate a public engagement process and present a recommendation at the next ETC meeting. The committee will be made up of members Janovy, Iyer, Bass and Loeffelholz. All voted aye. Motion passed. Draft Minutes☒ Approved Minutes☐ Approved Date: 4 C. 2017 Neighborhood and MSA Street Reconstruction Projects Planner Nolan explained that staff is seeking general feedback at this time on the 2017 projects and next month, the ETC would receive project-specific information. Discussion • Are the sidewalks that are included part of the Sidewalk Plan? Planner Nolan said yes, and the idea is to plan street reconstruction according to approved Plans, including reducing street widths with sidewalks. • In reference to Chowen Park D, parking issues related to the restaurant at W. 58th Street & Xerxes Avenue was noted for improvement. Planner Nolan explained that the project area is W. 54th Street. • Is the Countryside B sidewalk a PACS sidewalk? Planner Nolan will check and follow up on this. D. Traffic Safety Report of July 6, 2016 A.1. It was not clear if the City’s forester or the resident would be trimming the shrubs. Planner Nolan explained that the practice is for the resident to do this. A.2. Why is Maloney Avenue posted no parking? Planner Nolan did not know why. B.3. Staff sent a survey to nine property owners. Moving this item to section C was suggested because was not a denial. Motion made by member Olson and seconded by member Bass to forward the July 6, 2016, TSC report to the City Council. All voted aye. Motion passed. VIII. Correspondence And Petitions None. IX. Chair and Member Comments Member Iyer noted the poor condition of the road surface and landscaping on York Avenue where Centerpoint Energy is working. He said it appears certain areas are treated differently than others, e.g. work on France Avenue in the Galleria area was done much better. He asked if the City set standards for contractors and planner Nolan said yes. Member Iyer asked if MnDOT was contacted to see if the Rosland Park Pedestrian Bridge was moved if it would be considered a scope change in the project. Planner Nolan said it would be a scope change. He said staff decided to submit the grant application as though the bridge would remain in the same location. Member Miranda said after the work session with City Council where the discussion was on light rail and the circulator, and the need to stay updated on transportation issues, he thought that having a liaison from the Planning Commission would be useful to help stay abreast or updated on transportation issues that comes with redevelopment. After brief discussion, the consensus was to add this to a future agenda for discussion. Member Boettge asked about painting stop bars at the intersections on France Avenue and planner Nolan reminded her that stop bars were not painted because Hennepin County was not in favor of stop bars. He said there wasn’t any research of their effectiveness; however, coincidentally, Joe Totten, traffic safety coordinator, will be doing research on this for his master’s thesis beginning this fall. Member Bass said in reference to the transportation study that was presented tonight, it was helpful to hear that the budget was one-third of that of the Grandview study. She said when transportation studies are done in Edina, they are to include all modes, and the study presented tonight was very status quo with a focus on LOS Draft Minutes☒ Approved Minutes☐ Approved Date: 5 for cars. She wondered if this reflected the values of the community or stated policy and if they should continue to accept it or pursue it. Chair LaForce said he signed up the ETC for the Open Streets event and next month, they will discuss this and seek volunteers. He said the concrete work on Benton Avenue by MnDOT is completed but the crosswalk is not aligned yet and he’s hoping this will be done soon. He said he was at the traffic light at Parklawn Avenue & France Avenue and he was surprised at how difficult it was to see pedestrains; he knew a pedestrian was present because he saw the flashing pedestrian light; he said this demonstrated to him the meaning of what the ETC does. X. Staff Comments • The 2016 projects are progressing on schedule. • 2016 sidewalk projects: Cornelia Drive and Vernon Avenue are under construction; Interlachen Blvd will begin after a tree is removed on July 28; Xerxes Avenue is scheduled to begin September. • Comp Plan Update – staff is seeking feedback to see if the ETC would like to form a committee, a working group, or have the entire ETC participate in this process. • The W. 77th Street Bridge over TH-100 will close until mid-August for repairs. • Construction on the western half of the Nine Mile Creek Trail will begin this fall; the trail will open spring, 2018. • Grant applications were submitted for the Rosland Park Pedestrian Bridge and for Valley View Road bike lane. • Traffic Safety Intake tool – planner Nolan asked for an update on this tool; it is still in progress.

INTRODUCTION: T his item is a continuation of last month’s item of the same name. Staff continues to ask commissioners for their input on these projects, focusing on issues related to Living Streets, safety, multi-modal transportation, etc. T he project maps are again attached, along with P reliminary street and sidewalk layouts for the appropriate projects (note the dimensions on these layouts is from back-to-back of curb, as opposed to face-to-face). Also attached are the results of the multi-modal transportation surveys. Draft feasibility studies will be distributed to the ET C in September.

People go too fast and there are no sidewalks for pedestrians. As a frequent walker, I do not feel safe because of the blind turn. It is especially unsafe during 4- 6 pm now with Tracy closed. People are treating Hansen like they do Tracy and go very fast. Dissatisfied Hansen Currently Tracy Ave is closed so we are seeing A LOT of traffic - including city buses and the like. Usually the traffic levels are not too bad. West 61st street Dissatisfied The cut through streets in birchcrest A lot of kids Neutral 5304 61st Dissatisfied W. 61st between Code and Hansen; Hansen road from Benton to Valleyview People drive too fast Satisfied 2317 W. 61st Street Very Satisfied Neutral 5200 W. 62nd Street Neutral Dissatisfied corner of W. 62nd and Code Avenue speed of vehicles rounding the corner has caused some spinouts 5220 West 62nd Street Very Satisfied Very Satisfied 5308 West 62nd Street Satisfied Satisfied 5233 W. 62nd Street Dissatisfied Corner of W. 62nd and Wyman Ave. The roads come to a "T" there, and there is no stop sign.Dissatisfied Hansen Road, Maddox Lane, and Wyman Ave. Since Tracy closed, drivers have been taking these streets as alternate routes 5921 Bernard Place Neutral Neutral 6920 Berne Cir Neutral Neutral 5225 Birchcrest Drive Dissatisfied Corner of Mildred Ave/Valley View.

Why is it an issue of concern? 5212 Birchcrest Dr Satisfied Satisfied 5205 Birchcrest Dr Dissatisfied Code and Birchcrest There is a 2 way stop sign that most drivers ignore. In fact I've witnessed school buses quickly rolling through the stop. The problem with ignoring the signs is that drivers pick up quite a bit of speed since Code is fairly straight. We have a lot of kids and families that walk this stretch and I'm concerned that it's a matter of time before there's a serious accident. Additionally, vehicles traveling on Birchcrest don't stop at this intersection so if someone blows the Code stop sign the liklihood of a vehicular crash is higher. Satisfied Birchcrest Very Dissatisfied Maddox North to 60th St, West to Hanson, East to Birchcrest and all streets in between There are NO sidewalks and cars are going WAY too fast. Dangerous when walking with children, dogs, etc. Very Dissatisfied Maddox North to 60th St, West to Hanson, East to Birchcrest and all streets in between No sidewalks for people to walk on, cars going too fast -- dangerous! 5329 Birchcrest Dr Satisfied Satisfied 6149 Code Neutral South end of code ave.

Drivers come speeding down both from north and south directions. There isn't a stop sign on code at either intersection. Dissatisfied On code between 60th and porter During peak drive times/school time it seems to be a thorough fare 6145 Code Ave. Neutral 62nd Code Neutral 6109 Code Very Dissatisfied Code Ave, near 61st St There are hills coming from either direction and traffic generally speeds up. There are children playing all along the street and there have been MANY close calls. We put out safety signs and it doesn't matter. People may be going 25- 35 mph, but it's just too fast for the situation. Proof of the high speeds can be seen at Porter and Code where they are scrapes from cars constantly bottoming out. We need sidewalks or a 4-way stop sign at Code and Porter. It is terrifying to watch our kids playing outside. Very Dissatisfied Code Ave, near 61st High traffic street, people traveling way too fast through the neighborhood. 6105 Code Ave Very Dissatisfied 6000-6100 blocks of Code Ave Cars driving too fast.Since it is a long straight street with only one stop sign cars speed through with no regard.

We have lived here for 36 years and I gave up complaining because nothing was ever done. Police use to sit and ticket but those days are long gone. A lot of kids and families cross code on porter to go to the pond. I just listen to cars bottom out on 60 th or porter cuz three are going way to fast Neutral 6309 Colonial Court Very Dissatisfied Valley View and colonial court Vehicles are speeding - it is accident waiting to happen Neutral colonial court Very Dissatisfied Valley View at intersection of Colonial Court and Westridge Safety - it is an issue crossing on foot or bike and pulling out driving a vehicle Neutral Valleyview at Westridge and Colonial Court intersection This spring summer has been very heavy with Tracey closed for construction Address Birchcrest A and Countryside B Multi-Modal Survey Tabulation How satisfied are you with the speed of traffic in your neighborhood or on your street?

Dissatisfied Valley View Road - Off Tracy Exit Too much traffic; currently as a result of N Tracy being closed. 6303 Colinial Court Very Dissatisfied Valley View & Colonial Court Drivers speed both north and south past out culdesac making safely exiting the culdesac difficult, if not dangerous. In addition, looking to the south side of the culdesac for purposes of taking left hand turns is especially difficult due to the high rate of speed many drivers are traveling at. while going northbound on Valley View past our culdesac.

People think it is 50mph speed limit. We need to slow them down. I think stop signs at westridge/VV intersection and hillside/VV intersection would really help. It's unsafe...my kids have had many near misses that would have been fatal. Thanks for listening. Dissatisfied 6324 Valley View Rd With Tracy ave closed its been terrible but hopefully will get better after it reopens 6338 Valley View Rd Very Dissatisfied Intersection of Valley View Rd, Hwy 62 on/off ramp, and Tracy Ave (north side of Hwy 62) It is very difficult to to cross or turn on to Tracy from Valley View Rd and ramp due to heavy traffic on Tracy Ave. We have seen multiple accidents occur within the five years of living right by this intersection.

Maybe would need to cut off one of the roads -- put a dead end for Code heading south? drivers heading north on Code would have to slow down / stop for the 90-degree turn.

The North end of Olinger Rd. basically dead-ends at Vernon Ave., a County Road with a 40 mph speed limit that is often exceeded. This intersection has stop signs on both Olinger and Highwood Drive but no marked crossing on Vernon; the only safe places to cross Vernon are at Tracy Ave. which is 1/4 mile to the East and Blake Rd. 1/8 mile to the West; these two intersections have marked crosswalks and semiphores with Walk/Don't Walk indicators. Both already have sidewalks and both connect to Bredesen Park. Why in the world would one put their or their family's lives at risk just so you could walk on this proposed sidewalk. By the way, the Highwood and Parkwood neighborhoods to the North do NOT have sidewalks, with the exception of Blake Rd.

Yes 5806 Olinger Road Never Rarely (less than once per month)Very satisfied Yes No Yes Too much traffic in general which I don't know if it's possible to fix. We need some traffic calming though. Vernon speed limit must remain consistent throughout Edina - 30 MPH - just stupid to increase the speed limit for a short distance. I cannot think of any other two lane roads in Edina that are in purely residential neighborhoods that are 40 MPH. Speed bumps or something similar for folks coming down the Olinger Road Hill....not only does people speed increase coming down the hill, but there are many blind spots coming down the hill. We will not encourage people to drive less if we do not make pedestrian areas safe and neighborhoods surrounding Bredesen Park are very pedestrian oriented. Many young people, active people, old people, pets with too many cars traveling too fast on Vernon. Yes 5804 Olinger Road Never Never Dissatisfied We have a long driveway so it isn't necessary for us but a few times in our living there, 15 years, for extremely large parties, but our neighbors can't really park on Olinger Road safely, it's too narrow, no sidewalk for the pedestrians then which are a major issue as it is a thoroughfare to get down to the park. No No Yes Olinger Road is a major thoroughfare foe people walking and walking their dogs down to Bredesen Park, there has been one dog killed that was on a leash, that could have been a person. That road needs a sidewalk for the safety of people and pets. Yes 5725 Olinger Rd Rarely (less than once per month) Occasionally (1-4 times per month)Very satisfied No Yes I would love to have a sidewalk on Olinger Rd which can connect Vernon to Olinger Blvd, at least on one side of the street to make it easier to move up and down the street with small children.

Should the City of Edina formally request the elimination of the so called “gag rule” concerning the Dan P atch line? Should the City of Edina dedicate staff and fiscal resources to developing a plan to encourage the development of a passenger rail service in Edina? At the ET C's July meeting, a committee was formed to begin to formulate ideas regarding community outreach around this initiative. T his and other items related to this P assenger Rail initiative will be discussed. ATTACHMENTS: Description Rail Public Engagement Approach Rail Public Engagement August 18, 2016 As a reminder, the ETC has been asked to answer three questions: • Should the City of Edina support further study of the possibility of passenger rail service in Edina? • Should the City of Edina formally request the elimination of the so called "gag rule" concerning the Dan Patch line? • Should the City of Edina dedicate staff and fiscal resources to developing a plan to encourage the development of a passenger rail service in Edina? ETC members (Bass, Iyer, Loeffelholz) met to discuss an approach. Below are point from our discussion: • Holding a community meeting or two seems insufficient. Low turnout, which typically represents the far ends of the spectrum (very supportive/very opposed) • A community conversation that creates an “arc” of engagement, which might roll out in a stepwise fashion, using multiple methods, may allow more people to participate and lift up more perspectives. • Important to share facts, set the context Goal: Develop a recommendation for council on further study of passenger rail service.

INTRODUCTION: It is not anticipated that residents will be in attendance at the meeting regarding the report's recommendations. An overview of the comments from the Edina Transportation Commission will be included in the staff report provided to Council for their September 20, 2016 meeting. ATTACHMENTS: Description Traffic Safety Report of Augus t 3, 2016 August 18, 2016 Edina Transportation Commission Joe Totten, Traffic Safety Coordinator Traffic Safety Report of August 03, 2016 Information / Background: The Traffic Safety Committee (TSC) review of traffic safety matters occurred on August 03. The City Engineer, Assistant City Planner, Traffic Safety Coordinator, Police Lieutenant, Communications Coordinator, and Transportation Planner were in attendance for this meeting. The Public Works Director and Sign Coordinator were informed of the decisions and did not object to the recommendations. For these reviews, the recommendations below are provided. On each of the items, persons involved have been contacted and the staff recommendation has been discussed with them. They were informed that if they disagree with the recommendation or have additional facts to present, these comments can be included on the August 18 Edina Transportation Commission and the September 20 City Council meeting agendas. Section A: Items on which the Traffic Safety Committee recommends action: A1. Request for signing 50th and France area sidewalks, to prevent bicyclists from riding on them • City of Edina ordinance allows bicyclists to ride on city sidewalks, but prohibits riding where building accesses are directly off of the sidewalk. o This means that bicycling on sidewalks in the 50th and France area is illegal. o The full ordinance can be seen in Appendix F. • Minneapolis and the University of Minnesota have signage and pavement markings for sidewalks to discourage use of bicycles and inform the bicyclists to walk their bikes in these areas. o Placement of these pavement would be difficult in this location due to the brick Photo : One issue with placing sidewalk markings in the 50th and France district are the brick paver sidewalks seen here Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 2 sidewalks, as there are no concrete pads for the easy addition of the these markings. • A video study from 10:00 AM-10:00 PM on a Saturday was performed, and found that 78 bicyclists rode on 50th Street, west of France Avenue. Of these 78, 54 were on the sidewalk. • 11 persons were seen walking their bicycles in this area After review, staff recommends placing signs at ingresses to the district, instructing bicyclists to walk their bikes. The signage should help to inform bicyclists that they cannot ride on the sidewalk in this location. Further, the police department will work on education efforts in the district, to ensure that the ordinance is being followed. Section B: Items on which the Traffic Safety Committee recommends no action B1. Request for stop controls at the intersection of Branson Street and Oakdale Avenue • Count Data • This is a T-intersection, with Oakdale Avenue having one approach, and Branson Street having two, the southern leg of this intersection is a dead end. • Oakdale Avenue connects to Grimes Avenue, and is one block long • Branson Street connects to Morningside Road and is 2 blocks long, with a dead-end extending south of Oakdale Avenue. • When making the request, the requestors noted that most of the residents of Branson Street and Oakdale Avenue were slowing, or even stopping at the intersection already; that this request is partially to maintain signage that reflects the use of the road, and inform drivers from outside the neighborhood of the intersection. o A video of the intersection supported the assertion that drivers were often slowing significantly as they approached the intersection • No crashes have been reported in this location in the past 5 years. • Sightlines at this intersection were measured, Photo : Sidewalk markings as seen in the Uptown area of Minneapolis. Photo : Walk Your Bike signage, as seen on the Universtity of Minnesota, East Bank campus. Photo : Branson Street and Oakdale Avenue, looking west, down Branson Street towards the intersection. Map : Branson Street and Oakdale Avenue, Oakdale Avenue intersects Morningside Road, and Bransen Street, Grimes Avenue. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 3 and deemed appropriate for the intersection. o There is little, to no infringement of the corner clearview ordinance, partially due to very wide corner radii which makes the intersection of the curblines far into the intersection After review, staff determined that this intersection is being used by drivers as uncontrolled intersections are intended to be used. Drivers are slowing as they approach the intersection and taking preventative actions to avoid conflicts. With no crash history, and not meeting any other warrants, staff did not find reason to control the intersection. B2. Request for improvement of the Dewey Hill Road and Cahill Road intersection • This request concerns the triangular intersection of Dewey Hill Road and Cahill Road. • The requestor noted that this is a confusing intersection and that many drivers are unclear on how to proceed through the intersection. • There have been five crashes in the past five years of available data, reported at this intersection o One of these crashes was a ‘C-injury’, also referred to as a ‘Possible Injury’ crash. • A roundabout at this intersection has been a part of past CIP requests, but did not receive funding. • Is there any wayfinding, or other signage that would guide motorists through the intersection without causing undue distraction? After review, staff determined that this intersection may be confusing and difficult to navigate, but there were no markings or signage that would communicate a correct course for its navigation. A future reconstruction of this intersection is possible, but would also be costly. B3. Request for all-way stop control at the intersection of Lincoln Drive and the Edina West Condominiums’ private access road • This request concerns the intersection of Lincoln Drive, and the private access road to the Edina West Condominiums. • Lincoln Drive has an ADT of 3650 vehicles per day, and an 85th-percentile speed of 39.4 mph. • The Edina West Condominiums’ access road has an ADT of 590 vehicles per day. • Currently, the access road is the stem of a T- intersection with Lincoln Drive, and is stop controlled, while Lincoln Drive is uncontrolled. Aerial Photo : The intersection of Cahill Road (vertical) and Dewey Hill Road (horizontal). Photo : Lincoln Drive, looking southeast towards the Edina West Condominiums’ private access road. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 4 • The Edina West Condominium Association asked the City of Edina to consider adding all-way stop controls to the intersection of Lincoln Drive and their access road in order to facilitate turns out of their access road. • Sightlines in this location have been improved for 40 mph traffic on Lincoln Drive, and a speed report has been sent to the police department for their enforcement purposes. • While a formal delay study was not performed, observations during the peak hour indicate that queuing is negligible and will not warrant all-way stop control. • No crashes were reported in the past 5 years at this intersection. After review, staff found that warrants were not met for this intersection to be made into all- way stop control. With no crash history, and not meeting any other warrants, staff did not find reason to further control the intersection. The police department has been provided with a speed report on Lincoln Drive for enforcement efforts. B4. Request for a crosswalk across Vernon Avenue at Schaefer Road • This request concerns crossings from the Parkwood Knolls neighborhood to Bredesen Park. • The requestor noted that many crossings occurred at Schaefer Road, crossing Vernon Avenue. • A camera study was performed and found that the peak number of crossings in a two- hour period was 21, during the hours of 8:45-10:45 AM on a Saturday. • Vernon Avenue in this location has a 40 mph speed limit. • Vernon Avenue has an ADT of approximately 10,400 vehicles per day in this location. • There is a bituminous path on the south side of Vernon Avenue, which continues to Gleason Road. o Currently a sidewalk is under construction on the north side of the road, connecting View Lane and Schaeffer Road to Blake Road and a controlled intersection. After review, this crosswalk was determined to be warranted, but not justified. New construction is adding a sidewalk on the north side of Vernon Avenue, connecting Schaefer Road to Blake Road and the accompanying traffic signal, one block over. Further, City of Edina warrants would require signalization of this intersection to add a crosswalk, and adding signals this close to the intersection of Vernon Avenue and Blake Road was seen as detrimental to both safety and traffic flow on Vernon Avenue.

Request to lessen the misuse of roundabouts in Edina • This request has come from various requestors, who noted that roundabouts are still a new traffic control device, and proper utilization of them is difficult for drivers, particularly the elderly, who may not have had any instruction on properly driving through them. • The requestors have noted various driving classes for upper-middle aged and older persons, to hone their skills and ensure they are able to understand and drive appropriately through newer traffic control devices like roundabouts. • Classes from AARP are provided approximately monthly at the Edina Senior Center, as well as various other classes provided in communities nearby. o All classes found by the Traffic Safety Coordinator cost around twenty dollars, with some discounts for membership in an organization. • An issue noted with roundabouts by a requestor is that drivers on Edina’s streets and roads are not all from Edina, as the Southdale area draws shoppers from other nearby cities, and workers from across the metropolitan area. • Requestors have asked what, if anything, the City of Edina can do to increase knowledge of how to use roundabouts. After review, staff did not find additional opportunities to add roundabout safety to city programs. Additional concerns were that roundabouts in Edina are on major thoroughfares, which carry traffic from the entire region, and educating all the regions drivers is not practical for Edina alone to undertake. B6. Request to change the culture of Edina driving, such that drivers respect crosswalks more • This request has been received from multiple requestors, asking that drivers simply respect pedestrians in a crosswalk more, and follow state statute 169.21 subdivision 2, as seen in Appendix E. • Saint Paul has recently been doing a public safety campaign on this issue, called “Stop For Me” and has been receiving press coverage highlighting the law and educating drivers about the law’s requirements. • A camera was set up for a weekend at 70th Street and Wooddale Avenue, investigating if drivers would yield right-of-way to pedestrians. o 14 Crossings were observed where drivers and pedestrians would be in conflict. o Three (3) of these crossings involved drivers not yielding to pedestrians who had entered the roadway, two (2) of which instances had the pedestrian lights activated and the pedestrian in the roadway. o Drivers were considered able to stop if they were more than 193-feet from the intersection, this is the distance used by Saint Paul in its “Stop For Me” campaign. Photo : MnDOT webpage devoted to teaching drivers how to navigate roundabouts. Photo : W. 70th Street looking west towards Wooddale, the site studied for the yielding study. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 6 After review, city staff noted that there are already Public Service Announcements and the Street Smarts campaign attempting to address these issues. The police department also already conducts enforcement and education on this issue as well. No further actions were seen as practical or reasonable. Staff will continue our efforts to elevate these safety concerns, but no further actions are recommended. B7. Request for a crosswalk across Gus Young Lane, either at Arcadia Avenue or between developments’ driveways • This request notes how the Grandview Area is very busy with both vehicles and pedestrians, with specific concern given to Gus Young Lane between Arcadia and the railroad. • A camera was placed to observe two crossing locations; o The first location was the west side of the intersection of Arcadia and Gus Young o The second location was between the driveways of the developments north and south of Gus Young Lane • Twice during the count, did the number of crossings for between the driveways and at the intersection combined reach 18 pedestrians in a two-hour period. o The first time was from 10:15-12:15 o The second time was from 12:30-14:30 • Most crossings took place between the driveways of the developments, with 86 of the 101 total crossings during the study taking place between the driveways. After review, staff recommends no action at this time. This crossing is very close to meeting warrants for a crosswalk, and it is anticipated that as the Grandview District redevelops and densifies that this crossing may be warranted in the future. However, placement at this time is not warranted and not recommended. B8. Request to lessen the number of drivers running the stop signs at the intersection of Schaefer Road with Knoll Drive • Schaefer Road and Knoll Drive, in the Parkwood Knolls neighborhood, is a 5-way intersection. • The road is controlled with all-way stop controls. • The concern at this intersection is that drivers are rolling and running the stop signs, which is dangerous. Photo : Gus Young Lane and Arcadia Avenue, looking west, down Gus Young Lane. Map : The crossings of Gus Young Lane studied for crossings. Map : Knoll Drive has three approaches to its intersection with Schaeffer Road, shown here. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 7 • A camera study was able to approximate space-mean-speed of westbound vehicles, and found that currently, the median speed is approximately 7 mph, and the 85th-percentile speed is approximately 11 mph as drivers enter the intersection. o More on this study can be found in Appendix D. o This is not the minimum speed of drivers as they entered the intersection; the study was unable to determine minimum speeds. • In a review of the intersection, the stop signs were visible and had required sight distances. No proven improvements were observed as not being implemented in this location. After review, some small obstructions of the stop signs were removed as braches were trimmed slightly. However, no further action is recommended, as these signs are conspicuous, and the intersection would not meet volume or delay warrants for all-way stop control. Section C: Items which the Traffic Safety Committee recommends for further study C1. Request for crossing treatments on Xerxes Avenue near 68th Street • This request borders the City of Richfield • There currently exists a paved path from Xerxes Avenue to the parking lot and property of 6775 York Avenue. Currently occupied by Cub Foods; this path intersects Xerxes Avenue between 68th Street and 67th Street. • There currently exists an unpaved, ‘goat path’ between the property at 6775 York Avenue and Xerxes Avenue, and this path intersects Xerxes Avenue at its intersection with 68th Street. • Concerns for pedestrian safety, and the unexpected nature of this unmarked path led to this request. • A camera study was completed at this location, and found that Xerxes Avenue currently serves as a type of auxiliary parking lot for the 6775 York Avenue property. • The crossings both at the intersection of 68th Street and Xerxes Avenue, and at the paved path, meet the volume warrant in the City of Edina’s crosswalk warrants, shown in Appendix A. • The crossings to and from the paved path include many shopping carts. • The current paved path accesses the side of the 6775 York Avenue building, whereas the goat path aligns with the front of the structure. • Currently the goat path would need earthwork and other construction to make it accessible. • During the eight-hour video study, pedestrians crossed at the paved path approximately twice as often as at the goat path. Photo : The ‘goat path’ between Xerxes Avenue and 6775 York Avenue’s parking lot. This is at the intersection of Xerxes Avenue and W. 68th Street. Photo : The paved path between Xerxes Avenue and 6775 York Avenue’s parking lot. This is north of the intersection of Xerxes Avenue and W. 68th Street. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 8 After review, staff recommended working with Cub Foods (SuperValu), the property owner, and Richfield to construct a new paved path in the goat path’s location. This will make pedestrian movements more visible and expected, as they will be at an intersection. A crosswalk should also be placed in this location. C2. Request for a crosswalk across Vernon Avenue at Olinger Road • This request concerns crossings from the Highlands neighborhood to Bredesen Park, and Countryside School. • The requestor noted that crossing at the controlled intersections of Blake Road or Tracy Avenue are not the most direct path, and therefore inconvenient, but it felt unsafe to cross at Olinger Road’s intersection with Vernon Avenue, which is a straighter path. • A camera study was performed and found that the crossing meets the volume warrant of 20 pedestrians in a two-hour period. • Vernon Avenue in this location has a 40 mph speed limit. • Vernon Avenue has an ADT of approximately 10,100 vehicles per day in this location. • There is a bituminous path on either side of Vernon Avenue in this location, connecting this intersection to the controlled intersections of Tracy Avenue and Blake Road with Vernon Avenue. After review, staff recommended that further discussions be held with Hennepin County about this crossing. This crossing was warranted by the City of Edina’s warrants, already has a sidewalk on the north side of Vernon Avenue, and is further from Blake Road or Tracy Avenue than the crossing at Schaefer Road, considered in Section B. Further discussions with the County will have to be held, as by City of Edina warrants, a crosswalk should not be installed on a road with a speed limit above 30 mph except in conjunction with signalization. The type of signal, and Hennepin County’s willingness for its placement will have to be discussed. Section D: Other items handled by Traffic Safety D1. There was a request to lessen the numbers of drivers running the stop signs at Benton Avenue and Tingdale Avenue. Reviewing the signage of the area, the signs are visible and stand out properly. The police department has already been enforcing this signage as it has been identified by residents calling in. D2. A resident requested the dynamic speed sign trailer be placed on Saxony Road, as well as elsewhere on the Blake Road detour, to address high speeds of detouring traffic. This was forwarded to the Edina Police Department for placement and directed patrols. D3. A request for an additional no parking sign in front of 7275 Bush Lake Road was investigated, and this signage seemed to not be replaced when it was removed during the industrial park lighting project. This was forwarded to the sign shop for a new sign to be placed. D4. A requestor asked for traffic counts to be taken in the Parkwood Knolls neighborhood so that we can address any increase in traffic when US 169 is shut down next year. This had been previously completed, and results were discussed with the requestor. Map : Olinger Road is in the center of the two double sided Arrows, Blake Road is on the far left, and Tracy Avenue on the far right. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 9 D5. A requestor asked for trucks servicing the Tracy Avenue reconstruction project drive well below the speed limit, as trucks traveling close to the speed limit made the requestor feel uncomfortable as they came down the street. D6. A requestor asked that something be done to prevent drivers from confusing Brookview Avenue with the entrance to Pamela Park’s parking areas. This was addressed through the use of signing the entrance with brown recreational attraction direction signage. D7. A requestor noted that there was limited sight distance for a yield sign at 61st Street and Oaklawn Avenue. The branches of the tree which were partially obscuring the sign were trimmed. D8. A requestor asked for Field Way and Londonderry Road to have improved sightlines. This was referred to the police department, under the clearview ordinance and the obstructions have since been cleared. D9. A requestor asked if something other than repainting the Interlachen Boulevard bicycle lanes, on eastbound Interlachen Boulevard at Brookside Avenue could be done, as drivers often cut the corner and have rubbed off the paint. This is concerning to the requestor, as it indicates drivers are driving in the bicycle lane. A discussion with staff determined that there was no barrier or further marking which was appropriate and achievable at this time, and this item was then forwarded to public works to repaint the lane. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 10 Appendix A: Crosswalk Warrants A. Marked crosswalks are placed at locations that are unusually hazardous or at locations not readily apparent as having pedestrian movement. B. Marked crosswalks will only be placed in an area that has 20 or more pedestrian crossings in a two- hour period. C. Marking for crosswalks will be established by measuring the “Vehicle Gap Time”. This is the total number of gaps between vehicular traffic recorded during the average five minute period in the peak hour. Criteria for markings are: 1) More than five gaps – pavement marking and signage only. 2) Less than five gaps – add actuated pedestrian signals. D. Crosswalks will not be placed on arterial roads or roads with a speed limit greater than 30 mph unless in conjunction with signalization. E. Other conditions that warrant crosswalks: 1) Routes to schools 2) Locations adjacent to libraries, community centers, and other high use public facilities. 3) Locations adjacent to public parks. 4) Locations where significant numbers of handicapped persons cross a street. 5) Locations where significant numbers of senior citizens cross a street. F. Crosswalks will only be placed at intersections. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 11 Appendix B: Stop Sign Warrants When it is determined that a full stop is always required on an approach to an intersection a STOP (R1-1) sign shall be used. At intersections where a full stop is not necessary at all times, consideration should first be given to using less restrictive measures such as YIELD signs. The use of STOP signs on the minor-street approaches should be considered if engineering judgment indicates that a stop is always required because of one or more of the following conditions: A. The vehicular traffic volumes on the through street or highway exceed 6,000 vehicles per day; B. A restricted view exists that requires road users to stop in order to adequately observe conflicting traffic on the through street or highway. C. Crash records indicate that three or more crashes that are susceptible to correction with the installation of a STOP sign have been reported within a 12-month period, or that five or more such crashes have been reported within a 2-year period. Such crashes include right-angle collisions involving road users from the minor street failing to yield the right-of-way to traffic on the through street or highway. Additional warrants which do not specify the type of control are as follows; A. An intersection of a less important road with a main road where application of the normal right-of way rule would not be expected to provide reasonable compliance with the law; B. A street entering a designated through highway or street; and/or C. An un-signalized intersection in a signalized area. In addition, the use of YIELD or STOP signs should be considered at the intersection of two minor streets or local roads where the intersection has more than three approaches and where one or more of the following conditions exist: A. The combined vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian volume entering the intersection from all approaches averages more the 2,000 units per day; B. The ability to see conflicting traffic on an approach is not sufficient to allow a road user to stop or yield in compliance with the normal right-of-way rule if such stopping or yielding is necessary; and/or C. Crash records indicate that five or more crashes that involve the failure to yield the right-of-way rule have been reported within a 3-year period, or that three or more such crashes have been reported within a 2-year period. Additional warrants from the city of Edina list that: 1. If an intersection experiences five (5) or more right angle accidents in a three (3) year period, stop signs should be considered. 2. If the presence of a sight obstruction is contributing to accidents at an intersection, removal of the sight obstruction should be sought before considering a stop sign. 3. If the 85th percentile speed on any leg of an intersection is more than five (5) MPH over the posted speed limit, a stop sign should be considered for the intersecting street. 4. If traffic volumes exceed 1,000 vehicles per day on each of the intersecting streets, stop signs should be considered. 5. Residential stop signs shall not be installed in an attempt to control speed. 6. Residential stop signs shall not be installed in an attempt to control volume. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 12 Appendix C: All-Way Stop Warrants Multi-way stop control can be useful as a safety measure at intersections if certain traffic conditions exist. Safety concerns associated with multi-way stops include pedestrians, bicyclists, and all road users expecting other road users to stop. Multi-way stop control is used where the volume of traffic on the intersecting roads is approximately equal. The restrictions on the use of STOP signs described in Section 2B.4 also apply to multi-way stop applications. The decision to install multi-way stop control should be based on an engineering study. The following criteria should be considered in the engineering study for a multi-way STOP sign installation: A. Where traffic control signals are justified, the multiway stop is an interim measure that can be installed quickly to control traffic while arrangements are being made for the installation of the traffic control signal. B. Five or more reported crashes in a 12-month period that are susceptible to correction by a multi- way stop installation. Such crashes include right-turn and left turn collisions as well as right-angle collisions. C. Minimum volumes: 1. The vehicular volume entering the intersection from the major street approaches (total of both approaches) averages at least 300 vehicles per hour for any 8 hours of an average day; and 2. The combined vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle volume entering the intersection from the minor street approaches (total of both approaches) averages at least 200 units per hour for the same 8 hours, with an average delay to minor-street vehicular traffic of at least 30 seconds per vehicle during the highest hour; but 3. If the 85th-percentile approach speed of the major street traffic exceeds 40 mph, the minimum vehicular volume warrants are 70 percent of the values provided in Items 1 and 2. D. Where no single criterion is satisfied, but where Criteria B, C.1, and C.2 are all satisfied to 80 percent of the minimum values. Criterion C.3 is excluded from this condition. Other criteria that may be considered in an engineering study include: A. The need to control left-turn conflicts; B. The need to control vehicle/pedestrian conflicts near locations that generate high pedestrian volumes; C. Locations where a road user, after stopping, cannot see conflicting traffic and is not able to negotiate the intersection unless conflicting cross traffic is also required to stop; and D. An intersection of two residential neighborhood collector (through) streets of similar design and operating characteristics where multi-way stop control would improve traffic operational characteristics of the intersection. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 13 Appendix D: Method Used to Determine Knoll Drive Speeds To determine speeds as drivers approached the stop sign at Knoll Drive and Schaefer Road, cameras and a stopwatch were used. The video camera was set up to record if there were any events which called out specifically for more control, and were further analyzed by recording the vehicle classes that entered the intersection, and the amount of time it took for the entire vehicle to pass over a visible seam in the pavement that lined up directly with the stop sign. The average length of the vehicle class was recorded and the average speed drivers entered the intersection could be found. This process is not without downfalls however, as a driver who may have stopped prior to the stop sign would not be stopping over the seam in the pavement, and thus would not be counting any time stopped towards their time spent “entering” the intersection, and thus were recorded at higher speeds than can be found using the technology available. For reference, a vehicle which was found to have come to a full and complete stop still was found to have entered the intersection at an average rate of 3-4 mph. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 14 Appendix E: State Statute 169.21, Subdivision 2 Subd. 2. Rights in absence of signal. (a) Where traffic-control signals are not in place or in operation, the driver of a vehicle shall stop to yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing the roadway within a marked crosswalk or at an intersection with no marked crosswalk. The driver must remain stopped until the pedestrian has passed the lane in which the vehicle is stopped. No pedestrian shall suddenly leave a curb or other place of safety and walk or run into the path of a vehicle which is so close that it is impossible for the driver to yield. This provision shall not apply under the conditions as otherwise provided in this subdivision. (b) When any vehicle is stopped at a marked crosswalk or at an intersection with no marked crosswalk to permit a pedestrian to cross the roadway, the driver of any other vehicle approaching from the rear shall not overtake and pass the stopped vehicle. (c) It is unlawful for any person to drive a motor vehicle through a column of school children crossing a street or highway or past a member of a school safety patrol or adult crossing guard, while the member of the school safety patrol or adult crossing guard is directing the movement of children across a street or highway and while the school safety patrol member or adult crossing guard is holding an official signal in the stop position. A peace officer may arrest the driver of a motor vehicle if the peace officer has probable cause to believe that the driver has operated the vehicle in violation of this paragraph within the past four hours. (d) A person who violates this subdivision is guilty of a misdemeanor. A person who violates this subdivision a second or subsequent time within one year of a previous conviction under this subdivision is guilty of a gross misdemeanor. Traffic Safety Report of Aug 03, 2016 Page 15 Appendix F: City of Edina Ordinance Section 26-283 – Rules for operating bicycles on public sidewalks. A person may operate a bicycle on a public sidewalk, including in a business district, subject to the following requirements in addition to those found in state statute. A bicyclist shall: (1) Ride at a speed no greater than is reasonable and prudent under the circumstances, and in no event at a speed greater than ten miles per hour. (2) Slow to a walking pace when pedestrians are present. (3) Slow to a walking pace upon approach to and when crossing a driveway or intersection; enter driveway or intersection only when clear of traffic. (4) Not ride on sidewalks where the entrance or exit of a building abuts the sidewalk. (5) Not ride on sidewalks where posted. Date: Augus t 18, 2016 Agenda Item #: VI.F.

Annual work plans ensure that the priorities of the City Council and Boards and Commissions are aligned and that the City has the appropriate financial and staff resources to support Board and Commission work. Annual Cycle. Board and commissions should focus on drafting their work plans during the summer months for the following year. The Council meets with Board and Commission Chairs during the month of September to review the proposed work plans. The Council gives final approval for the work plans in November. Work plans go into effect January 1 for the remainder of the calendar year. Format. The work plan has three main sections. Each Board or Commission’s work plan may be found on Edinet in the Board and Commission Toolbox. Annual Work Plan Calendar January: Annual Work Plan Begins June-August: Proposed work plan created by BC. Sept/Oct: Work Plan proposals presented by BC chair to City Council at Work Session. Nov/Dec: Council review and approve Board & Commission Work Plans for upcoming year. Page | 2 Some boards and commission have few ongoing responsibilities and most of their work will fall into the initiatives category. Other Boards and Commissions have significant ongoing responsibilities and may only be able to tackle only one or two new initiatives each year. Council Review and Approval. The Council schedules a meeting in September to meet with Board and Commission Chair regarding their proposed work plan. The purpose of the meeting is to review the Board or Commission proposed new initiatives and ongoing responsibilities for the upcoming year. The Council also reviews any ideas discussed by the Board or Commission but not placed on the work plan. In late September and October, the Council has additional discussions about city-wide priorities, the budget and the allotment of staff time. It is possible that the Council will add, delete or re- prioritize items on board or commission work plans based on these discussions. The Council approves and returns work plans to boards and commissions during the month of November. Mid-Year Modifications. Work plans may be modified, to add or delete items, in one of three ways: • Work plans can be modified by mutual agreement during a joint work session. • If immediate approval is important, the Board or Commission can work with their Staff Liaison to present a modified work plan for Council approval at a Council meeting. • The City Council can direct a change to the work plan. •Outline any new initiatives the Board or Commission would like to pursue during the upcoming year. 1. New initiatives •Document the Board or Commission’s ongoing responsibilities. Ongoing responsibilities include items that are repeated on a regular or annual basis, or regulatory functions that are delegated to the Board or Commission. 2. Ongoing Responsibilities •“Parking lot” for ideas that were considered during the work planning process. Ideas that the Board and Commission wants to hold for consideration for future years should also be included in this section. 3. Other Work Plan Ideas Considered for Current Year or Future Years Board/Commission: Choose an item. 2017 Annual Work Plan Proposal *Complete each section with a white background *Liaisons need to fill out budget and staff support required *Return to MJ Lamon by September 23, 2016 Definitions: New Initiative – not on previous work plan Continued Initiative – carried over from a previous work plan with a revised target completion date Ongoing Responsibility – annually on the work plan and may or may not have a target completion date Initiative Council Charge ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 Target Completion Date Budget Required (Staff Liaison) Staff Support Required (Staff Liaison) ☐ New Initiative ☐ Continued Initiative ☐ Ongoing Responsibility Click here to enter text.
