"HEIGHT OF BUILDINGS" AMENDMENT TO REGIONAL SHOPPING DISTRICT SECTION OF ZONING
ORDINANCE - CONTINUATION OF DECEMBER 8TH PUBLIC HEARING. Mr. Robert crabb of
Southdale Realty Company reviewed for the Council and the audience the Company's
reasons for requesting change in "setback" and "height" provisions of the
ordinance--that the change in the "setback" provision will allow the placing of
a building closer to France Avenue than is now permitted; and that the requested
change in 'the. 4-'heighttf provision would, of course, provide for taller buildings
than are now permitted (present ordinance provides a 70-f oot masimum, whereas
change would provide for 109-foot maximum height).
the change in the setback provision will not affect the setback from Valley View
Road. He stated that the request for relief from the "height" provision had been
made pursuant to experience with the medical building, which showed that con-
struction of this type of building less than six stories high would not be
economically sound--but that the Company is willing to delay this part of its
request until further studies have been made on the matter of structural
economics insofar as office buildings are concerned. Messrs. J.C. Armstrong,
6624 Southdale Road, and Warren A. Sturm, 6713 Southdale Road, led a delegation
of about twenty Southdale residents protesting the "height" change. They stated
that although they knew the property was zoned "Regional Shopping District" when
they purchased their residential properties, most of them believed the maximum
height was 40 feet; that they feel their properties will be devaluated if the
proposed change is effected; that the view from their residences will be
impaired by the construction of "skyscrapers".
making no objection to the proposed "s&tback" change.
the "control" provision of the ordinance be changed, to provide that "written
consent of 3/4 of the owners of property located within 500 feet" be required
for construction higher than 40 feet.
original ordinance was written the Company owned both the Regional Shopping
District and the residential property for blocks around; that, should the
ordinance be changed now, provision could still be circumvented by division
of ownership into "subsidiary" companies. Trustee Bank suggested that the
height limitation be placed at 75 feet, which would permit the erection of a
six-story building without further discussion before the Council, but Messrs.
Armstrong and Sturm were adamant in their protest against any change in the
height provision. They stated they would be willing and happy to discuss the
matter with the Company at such time as survey might show construction of less
than six stories to be impractical.

MORTUARY - PUBLIC HEARIWG ON PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO ALLOW. This Public Hearing
was conducted on proposed amendment to the Village Zoning Ordinance, to allow
a mortuary at Lots 15,16,17,18,19 and 20 and the South 15 Ft. of Lot 14, Block
1, Brookside Heights (5108-5118 Highway #169, otherwise known as 5105-5119
Hankerson Avenue), pursuant to a request for this land useage by Messrs. Dick
Enroth and Marv. Rosene. Clerk presented Affidavits of Publication in Edina-'
Morningside Courier December 11 and 18, 1958, and of Posting on December 9, 1958,
of "Notice of Hearing"; which affidavits were approved as to form and ordered
placed on file. Messrs. Maurice Hessian and Dick Enroth presented the case for
the mortuary to a delegation of some 30 neighboring residents and the Council.
Mr. Enroth showed sketches of the front and rear views of the proposed building,
the rear view, which can be seen from Hankerson Avenue, to be treated the same
as the front of the building, in brick and glass; the building to be 120x50',
to be located on Lots 17 and 18, on a tract some 350 feet wide on Hankerson by
327 feet on Highway #169; to face Highway No. 169. He explained that the idea
for the business originated with the petitioners; that they will own the building
and lease to Welander-Quist on long-term lease; that the rear of the property will
be screened by either a wall or plantings; that the service drive and the parking
lots will accommodate sufficient vehicles so that there will be no need for
parking on Hankerson Avenue; that processions will follow #169 and not be routed
on Hankerson; that there will be an "emergency only" exit onto Hankerson Avenue;
that a hearse will never be parked on the premises except immediately before a
service. Asked what proportion of the cars attendant at funeral or visitation
would be accommodated by parking lots, Mr. Enroth explained that the lots will
accommodate at least 60 vehicles, whereas lessee has asked for space for 25 to
35 cars. To a question as to the feasibility of starting a procession along #169,
PAr. Enroth replied that special deputies are usgally employed to direct traffic.
Mr. Mathieu objected to this operation on the grounds that there will be parking
on Hankerson and that it is depressing to look out over a funeral.
was directed to the Council, about prohibiting parking on the east side of
Hankerson, and Mr. Bredesen replied that, at least, "NO Chapel Parking" could
be established. 1,k. Enroth stated there would be no objection to this on the
part of the petitioners.
he has been delegated to speak for his neighbors on Hankerson; that their objections
are complete, unequivocal and violent; that they have been unable to secure any
information on this matter until this evening; that, because of Christmas, some
of his neighbors could not be here tonight.
some of Mr. Enroth's arguments good; that he believes some of his neighbors would
feel considerably better about the project if they were better informed.
that the Council delay action for 30 days, to give his neighbors time to investigate
the project further, It was pointed out to P4r. Gislason that his neighbors have had
their Notice of Hearing for over a week; that the Council has considered uses for
this property for some years, many of which requests have been denied before even
coming to public hearing because they were considered to be not in the public
interest; that many of the neighbors are here this evening; that the Planning
Commission has recommended favorably on this request.
feels that Council should act tonight, o e way or the other.
Mr. Morris Nash, 5124 Hankerson, who had previously questioned traffic problems,
stated that property owners would like to protect their values as much as they can;
that they realize some commercial use must be made of the property, but that there
are other uses which would be more agreeable.
asked that Council protect residence properties by delaying action until final
building plans are presented, showing both treatment of exterior of building,
and treatment of screening.

will best do the job; that the building is proposed to be brick. Bank offered the

'SANITARY SnnJER IMPROVEMENT NO. 146 - SPECIAL TREATMENT THROUGH EASEMENT PERMITTED.
Engineer Zikan informed the Council that the contractor has agreed, for an extra
cost of $2,000, to jack a pipe from the street, through the Dobbelman-Shuler
sanitary sewer easement to the back yards of these properties and then to lay the
sewer line inside this pipe; that he recommends this work because the frost is now
so deep that the contractor will find it impossible to stay within the easement
with regular type of digging and, should the easement line be exceeded the Village
will be liable for damages.

Tupa's motion, authorizing this extra work, was
WATERWORKS REVENUE BONDS SALE APPROVED. Pursuant to direction at last Council
Meeting, Manager Hyde presented a plat of the Village, showing watermain "deadends"
and plans to loop them. He informed the Council that it may be possible to make
assessment against abutting properties for some of the cost of construction, but
that most of it should be borne by the waterworks fund, for the reason that most
abutting property is non-benefited. Mr. Hyde's preliminary estimate of cost of
construction was $47,666.50. It was noted that these plans did not include the
looping of the dead end main at Sunnyside Road--which is probably the most
troublesome one in the Village--but Mr. Hyde explained that this is difficult to
do because the next nearest main is some distance down Highway No. 100 and
construction would be unusually expensive. At the direction of the Council,
however, he will investigate this cost further. Manager Hyde advocated that
Council sell $275,000 of Waterworks Revenue Bonds to finance the proposed
main construction and that portion of the Reservoir which the Council has already
determined to finance by bond issue.

January, 1959, was seconded by Dickson and unanimously carried.
EDINA-COU"Y-HOPKINS JOINT STORM SOPdER HEARING POSTPONED. Manager Hyde recommended
postponement of this Hearing, scheduled for January 12. Because Grandview Cemetery
is located in this drainage district and is non-assessableJ the cost will be very
high; that Council must determine a method of paying for the improvement. He
suggested that proposed public hearing be postponed pending completion of his
report on cost figures.

Administrative Asst., George Hite, presented plan for the new Downing Street.

representing owners of commercial property at the eastern end of the street, objected
to the proposed width, asking that right-of-way be dedicated at 50 feet.
asked that the street be screened from that part of the property which is intended
by the Village to be used a storage dump. hlr. Hite explained that, while it is not
imperative that the street be kept at 40 feet, a dedication of 50 feet will cut
down Village storage space; that, because this is Village property and, therefore,
a boulevard is not needed, traveled roadway could be as wide as 36 feet in a 40-foot
