W.66TH STREETS.
12 and 19, 1957 of "Notice of Public Hearing" was submitted by Clerk, approved
as to form and ordered placed on file. Manager Hyde reviewed for the Council
the fact that this proposed improvement had been considered earlier, together
with the sewer improvement for Brookview Heights but had been abandoned at
that time in accordance with a request by those property owners present at
that Hearing; that this Hearing has been called pursuant to a supplemental
petition for the improvement; that the matter of construction is complicated
by the fact that the residents in this entire area are impatiently awaiting
the installation of gas main across either 63rd or 64th Street from Highway
No. 100. Mr. Hyde read a letter dated September 20, from Mr. Kenneth Person
of Minneapolis Gas Company, stating that it will be necessary to have the
proposed installation of sewer completed before October 28 if the area is
to have gas this year. Mr. Hyde reported to the audience that, based on bids
taken this morning, the Estimated Cost will be $6.39 per front foot, plus the
394 per front foot Trunk Sewer assessment, for a total of $6.78.

what assurance the Village has that the contractor will actually complete
the work on schedule. He was informed by the Manager that a penalty clause
has not been included in the proposal; that the bidder's word must be taken;
that low bidder has done considerable work in the Village this year and has
been on time to date. Mr. J.D. Newell, 6434 Warren, inquired concerning
blacktop replacement--if it has been included, and when it will be done.

CONTINUATION OF SUJT'EIlBER 9TH PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED WIDENING OF W.50TH
STREET BETWEEN EDINA THEATR€ AND FRANCE AVENUE. Manager Hyde read letter dated
September 19, from Ak. Martin Stein, President of the Edina Theatre Corp., which
stated, in brief, that the Corporation does not oppose the improvement but that
it has, for some time, considered an extensive remodeling program and that, in
view of the street's widening necessitating the removal and rebuilding of their
canopy and the moving of the box office, the Corporation requests that the
work be delayed to Nay, 1958. When asked for his recommendation as to the
postponing of the work, Engineer Zikan stated that his Estimate of Cost had
been based on this year's comparative costs; that, if the work is delayed
until 1958 the work will be more expensive. Some discussion was had on the
matter, and Dickson offered the following Resolution and moved its adoption:

most of the land abutting the street, protested to the proposed change for the
reason that "Snow Hill Road" sounds cold and may give the impression that the
street isn't plowed. Dr. Paul Carson, petitioner, objected to "Erringer Road"
for the reason that it is already being mispronounced. He asked that Council
arrive at some decision in order that residents may informt'their friends and
business associates, now, as to their proper address, inasmuch as their mailing
address has been changed from Hopkins to Edina 24.
he will not insist upon "Erringer Road", but that he would like something a
little warmer sounding than "Snow Hill". Because an agreement could not be
reached, Trustee Fronk moved that matter be continued to Monday, October 14,
to give residents and property owner time to find a street name suitable to all.

the Council that, after Mr. Leonard M. Gebo's question concerning a building
permit ban on properties at Sherwood Road and Eden Avenue(stated at the
"Directional Flow Interchange Hearing on September 91, Cities Service Oil
Company had applied for, and received a permit for a gasoline service
station on Lot 3, Block I, Edenmoor Addition; that, after permit had been
issued, some of the neighboring properties' owners had called Mr. *Hyde's
attention to the fact that when this property was originally zoned
"Community Store District**, Council zoned only after several hearings and
objections by neighbors, and presentation of plans for a window-shade
display room accompanied by a letter from Mr. Gebo that such a building
would act as a favorable buffer between the then present community store
and residential areas.
Mr. Hyde stating that the problem is whether we should revoke the building
permit to Cities Service Oil Company. Attorney M.B. 'Hasselquist confirmed
a written opinion to the effect that the Village does have the right to
revoke the permit and rezone to Open Development as long as there has been
no change in vested interests; that the attorneys have specifically checked
this last point, and there is authority for such rezoning.
that the matter be brought before the Planning Commission for study and
recommendations, in line with more recent land development in the area.
Mr. John Larson, 5244 Richwood Drive, speaking for a delegation of
Edenmoor and Richwood Drive residents, stated that the delegation had
appeared before the Planning Commission a couple of times, asking that
the zoning be changed, but they had always received the reply that
action must be by the Council; that neighborhood residents definitely do
not want another oil station in the area. Bank moved that Council revoke
the building permit issued to Cities Service Oil Company €or construction
of a gasoline service station on Lot 3, Block 1, Edenmoor, and that Council,
on its own motion, call a public hearing to be held Monday, October 28, 1957,
at 7:30 P.M., on the matter of rezoning Lots 2 and 3, Block 1, Edenmoor,
from Community Store District to Open Development District.

SALE,OF VILLAGE-OWNED PROPERTY AUTHORIZED. Manager Hyde reported that Lots 1,
2,3 and 4, Block 2, Valley View Terrace, Third Addition, which were deeded to
the Village some time ago by Mr. and Mrs. Emil Fronk, are not needed for either
park or storm drainage purposes; that they should bring a good price in the
present real estate market. Because Mr. Fronk is well acquainted with the
general area, he suggested that Mr. Fronk be given the opporttmity of negotiating
the sale of the property. Dickson offered the'following Resolution and moved its
adoption:

of the purposes of the report is to bring before the Council the problems of
supplying trunk service to developers. After considerable general discussion,
Manager was authorized and directed to secure rough estimates of cost of trunks
(both sewer and water) to developments; it being understood that trunk mains
shall be financed by the Village, and assessed, providing the Council deems it
to be in the public interest to construct.

also; that neither he nor Mr,Leck can do so. Mr. George Porter pleaded for
