I-Ie roviewed for the Council the proposal made at the Improvement hearing, with regard
to the Village Share of the cost of this improvement, to assess CorTfunity Store
Px:ororties the full cost per front foot for both Paving and Curb and. Gutter and to
assess Residential properties for 1/3 the cost per front foot for paving (on the
pr;smise ';;lair this assessment would be ecp3al to the assessment for a regular
b1_tci:topped street) and the full cost per front foot for curb and gutter. Estimated
Cosi, as given at Improvement Hearing was $10.50 per front foot for Paving for
C.or,r-unity Store properties; $3.50 per front foot for paving for Residential
propeerties end $2.10 per front foot for curb and gutter for all properties.
I.Sanager Hyde informed the Council that the assessment had been calculated, on
this basis, to produce an Assessable Front Foot Cost of ;9.55 per front foot for
paving for Community Store; 13.19 per front foot for paving for residential, and
_2.22 per -front foot for curb and gutter for all properties malting a total
assessment of :;9.55 against Community Store and $5.41 against -Presidential properties- -
That, as of only today (after mailed notices had gone out, showing the assessment
cost as hereinbefore set forth) it had been discovered that a stretch of France
Avenue, involving some 550 lineal feet south of this improvement, had been
erroneously included in the assessment roll; and that, therefore, the proposed
front footage assessment should be amended, as the Council determines, either to
conform i %ritil the originally proposed method of assessment (which would raise the
assessable cost to 5`2.47 per front foot for Curb and Gutter; X3.54 for Residential,
'11.26 for Community Store, for Paving); or, if the Council so determines, to the
Estimated Cost given at the Improvement ;Tearing (which would mean that the General
Fund of the Village will assume $4,910 more of the Improvement Cost that originally
proposed). On this latter basis, the General_ Fund will bear ;70,967.95 for the
-,.- mgr X9,355.00 for the Bridge, as was originally proposed; and $4,163.24 for
the Curl? and Gutter, for a Total General Fund cost of $84,496.19, and properties
abutting France Avenue will be asses -sed a total of $46,519.05, to male up Edina's
1141.,015.24 of the $255,435.70 Improvement.
`.ttorney A.E.I :Taag, 1020 Rand. Tower, representing several France Avenue property
Qviners, spa ?,e in opposition- to the assessment. He stated that the paving has made
France Avenue a literal race track - -a busy speedway and thoroughfare where traffic
is e:;treme_ly heavy; and people who live on the street, w1ho try to turn into their
garages, are held up for a considerable period of time before they can get into
their own garages. He told the Council that cement and sand trucks owned by
concerns at the lower and of France Avenue use the strest constantly,- that the
1_111c is terrifically noisy; and that now the speed limit ! ni ll be increased to
^511.117,'T. 1 :1 . Ilaag stated that this is no longer a residential community; that these
people not -r live adjacent to a highs ^gay; that they are now boing asI_ec- to pay for the
{evaluation of their property; that property has been devaluated from thirty to
thirty -five- percent as a result of this improvement; that the people he is -rep -
resenting feel very strongly that they should not be called upon to pay for the
depreciation of their own propexty.
T -icn s ic Y27I 7rz:,nco,, told the Council he purchase,--I his, ho:7,e
1 1
five yalrs c9 '')r -0
is s er, after having had the house for
sale for a long tide, he received one offer of $20,COO; that values of homes
1 16 -
alonq the pave' street have gone down; that residents -Lceei this is not- a
just assessment, an�, that they should not have to pay for a highway riven they
have alree-ely suff2re6k in the devaluation of their homes.
,,xs. Becher, 159th and France, called council's attention to t'.'Io blind spots
at intersections of ,'.58th and '.':.60th streets .Ath France Avenue. She asked
that the speed of trucks be restricted to 25.'-,P ,'r1. i.',aycr Bredesen e-x-plainsd that
the speed limit has recently been increased to 35 at the recoromendetion of
the police departmen-IC, after a survey showing that 85 percent of the vehicles
along this stretch travel 35..IFJ, or slower; that it is better to establish a
realistic speed limit and be able to enforce it, than it is to attempt to
enforce an unrealistic speed limit.
!,*r. C.H. Jensen, 57 ,,Tcodiand Circle, objected that the France ilvenue
improvement is adding nothing to any of the abutting properties; and that there is
no reason r.,hy these properties should have to pay for any part of it. ,ayor
Eredesen explained that the proposed assessment is not for the full cost of- the
paving; that it is corLmensurate with the cost which any property owner in the
Village would pay for the improvement of his street by Construction of ordinary
Village Blacktop Surfacing and Concrete Curb and Gutter.
,,Lr. Simons, 3901 Grimes Lane, complained that abutting property owners had
had no choice of the ',ps of improvement they wanted for France .`,venue; that
there is a great desl of traffic on the street, now, that never used France
Avenue before it was paved.
I-'r. Robert Stichney, 5820 France, explained that his application for a mort-
gage on his property had been denied for the reason that the property had
deteriorated so in value that the mortgage company could not allow as much as if
the home were located else-.-.hero. He stated he has no objection to paying 0
legitimate ta.x, but believes the assessment should be sproad over a considerably
larger area. Ile was reminded that the Village General Fund, and Eonnopin County,
are bearing more than 80,)' of the cost of the improver: ient; that property owners
are being asl:eJ to pay, riot for paving, but for an amount equal to the cost of
an ordinary blac!-.toppina project.,
,.Irs. Virginia Deard, owner of property on 55th and France, reminded Council
that she had been unable to sell her two lots residentially, due to France :!,venue's
being such a speedos,.
Ls. Lee Paris, 59 ',7oodland Circle, told the Council his property backs up to
France j"venue, and has no particular benefit of the street.
Attorney aeg stated that it does not matter r4-,ether property owners are
being assessed for an orr-3inor, blacl:top job or for something elsei that the fact
is that i-:Tiat has been put through rough has destroyed the value of the obutt—', nc
C
properties; that., ncw, the, are being called upon to bear further contribution
to the very thing which -has destroyed their values.
-xrs. Stane':, 30--,20 ;i.55 -h Street, asked i%,li eil-h er, prop or ty owners mould have to
put up with all this prasen"-. -11-ra,13fic 5-1L they did not have this

::rs. Becker acl:e.6 that, If this is a residential street, abutting p:-'Opert-'r
owners be gilen some control over the speed limits. "ayor Dredesen told her that
a checl: will be made i-lo see if it is possible to restrict the speed of truc•'s at
a lower limit -Chan- that for passenger vehicles.

T)3c!:ar, 591-0 --rznc,2 vonue, arcked for a etellindtion of the phrase- "benefited
property holders ". He stated France %vonua, residents -3oel -they 'have nc,t been
benefited by ti-lis ,Iayo-r Brodeson told A.x. 3ecHer and the audience
that he, as one of the older members of the Council, had personall,, listened ran-,,
times to complaints the France *.venue residents, before this improvzraent,
I -Itc., t1l E)t there
concerning dust, potholes,
oles, water standing, crumbling shoulders,
is no question tti-jat al:u.t1"ing properties are benefited; znd that Council, in
proposing to assess an amount commensurate with current black-Lopping, ossessments,
rather than for ftill cost of paving, has taken into consideration the fact ti-ist
abutting properties are not benefited to the ex,-Lent of the entire cost of the
paving ininro-venent.; that the assessment as proposed for this improvement is in
conformity with assessments levied for previous paving assessments on France
Avenue, ',:or'k-h of this area.
Joseph stressed again the devaluation suffered by the properties abutting
France Avenue, because of this improvement, and was answered by Trustee l'ohler
that it is very difficult for the Council to determine .-:nether ti-leso hcr,.os would
have debreased in value faster, or more slowly, without the improvement.
ql 1,x%58 TH
ir. I,,thirley, 61 `Ioodland Circle, stated he believes it is the character of
the improvement which is important; that there is no mystery about the fact that
France ;,venue is no longer a residential_ street; •chat it is now an artery which
serves muc; traffic. Ile stated he thought the amount of money proposed to be
assessed could be spread over a wider area "as sort of consolation to these
people ". ,':tayor Bredesen reviewed,for the audience ='diva's long established policy
of assessing abutting property owners for street improvements. He stated it would
be much more convenient if all street improvements could be the responsibility of
the General Fund of the Village; but that, in fairness to those taxpayers who have
already paid by special assessments for their own street improvements the policy
cannot be changed'., now.
I.s. Benson, 5900 France ..venue, agreeing with i':,r. ;`]hirley's statements,
stated that the character of this improvement has changed the character of living
in the neighborhood.
Trustee Bank, stating that being a councilman has its drarabacl:s because some
of the actions the Council roust take are unpopular; that the Council spends much
•time in study of proposed improvements, trying consistently to be 'air and
equitable in its actions and trying too, to act in the best interests of each of
its residents and of the Village as a whole, offered the following Resolution, and
moved its adoption:

to be assessed as follows: $1.58 per front foot for Platted Properties in the '

Trunk Watermain District; $5.44 per Front Foot for Lateral Connections along France

assessment was compared with improvement Hearing Estimate of >1.60; ;225.00; and
35.44, respectively. Attorney Hosmer Brown inquired as to : -:here the hydrants
were assessed (whether they were included on the Trunk, or on the Lateral Assess-
nent); and was informed that there are no hydrants on this project. It was
e;;pl a-i ned by i:ir. ?iltian that hydrants on I'7.70th Street were constructed as a part
of II:IPQ01M T-:17 HO. 126-- (Stpw`s Edgemoor) because the consulting engineer
had t lanrie�I �T7 s p- rojact in t1Li� °inarir�er; .and that, consequently the assessment for
the Pydrants is in Watermain Improvement IIo. 126- -all assessed against Stow's
Edger.ioor.- 411r. Stow protested this arrangement, asking fora reduction from
-I.he assessment for Watermain Improvement No. 126 for the cost of the three hydrants
on '7.70th Street which I,Ir. ?ilran reports can serve that property assessed for
Intcr-±ls in 1;'7atermai4n Improvement IIo. 125. ?il:an reported that hydrants were
