Pursuant to Notice given
Hearing was conducted on the Petition of Heritage Corporation for Special Permit
for construction of a "Boarding Home for the Elderly" on Lot 1, Block 1, Town
Realty's Edina Terrace Third Addition--between Heritage Drive and the Crosstown
Highway, and East of Heritage Nursing Home. Planning Director Hite presented
sketch showing proposed building, together with its relation to the surrounding
area, also submitting elevations, He reported that this proposed building will
not be a "nursing homet1, in that people in this home are in good health--that it
is more like a hotel, except that there are no kitchen facilities; that there are
52 boarding home units, half for single occupancy and half for double occupancy,
a common dining area, and a common lounge area; that kitchen facilities are in
the Nursing Home and food will be prepared *here and brought to the Boarding Home.
Mr. Hite reported that the Planning Commission has reviewed this request, feels
there is a need, here, for this type of facility and that the proposal presented
meets all reasonable requirements, but recommends a protective covenant be placed
on the land, assuring that it will be used for only a home for the elderly and
will not revert to a hotel-type establishment--the reason for this last recommend-
ation being that the Commission feels that the parking facilities provided would
not meet the requirements for a hotel.
that such a deed restriction would be accepted for record, although it is a most
unusual one, and Mr, Hite stated that tAe Corporation is willing to cmply with
the request, MacMillan's motion, that Special Permit for "3oarding Home for the
Elderly" be approved, subject to recording of deed restriction against reversion
of operation to hotel uses, was seconded by Dickson and unanimously carried.

the rather complex proceedings preceding these Hearings: First, the receipt of a
petition for correction of drainage pockets in the Benton Avenue area; and the
resultant Public Hearing on a Storm Sewer, held April 16; this Storm Sewer project
having been voted down by Council pursuant to property owner objections; Second,
receipt of a petition for Street Surfacing in Hycliffe Road from Grove Street
North to Dead End and in Grove Street from Olinger Road to Tracy Avenue--which
petition had not been signed by anyone on Grove Street between \?ycliffe Road and
Tracy Avenue--and the objections of the owners on this stretch of street to be
included in the proposed improvement (entered with Council on April 16); then,
the Public Hearing on the proposed Street Improvement for Uycliffe Road and that
portion of Grove Street between Vycliffe Road and Olingev Road, at which property
owners had asked that Grove Street between liycliffe and Tracy be improved, in order
that there might be some lltravelablell access to both the new Methodist Church and
their residential area--and the resultant action of the Council to conduct public
hearing on a reduced storm sewer project and the Grove Street from Wycliffe Road

one of the most desirable characteristics of the area and completely
defeating the purpose desired in originally platting this area.
4.) Economic burden placed upon property owners would be unfair and unjust.
Mr. Knippenberg augmented petition's reasons for objection by telling Council
that platting of area took the pond into consideration; that if pond is drained
dry, leaving him with dirt and debris, and additional assessments are levied for
both storm sewer and street improvement, his house will not be saleable. Captain
Gans, at a Council inquiry, reported that from an Engineering standpoint it is
desirable to completely drain the pond; that because of the limited area draining
into the pond, and the impossibility of predicting rainfall and snowfall, the
Village cannot guarantee that the pond will not he dry at times; that it would
be possible to construct a wier and structure, with an outlet at a certain fixed
elevation, to guarantee a T1maximumlt fixed elevation in all except a cloudburst.
Asked if there has been any basement water trouble in the area, Nr. Knippenberg
replied that his house would be the first to be affected, and that he has had
no trouble.
that property owners just have too many special assessments to absorb within the
next two or three years--that they understand improvements must come sooner or
later, but that they feel an additional two assessments, now, besides those they
are already carrying, are more than they can economically bear. Mr. Knippenberg
added that the area is sparsely populated; that if street is surfaced, now, there
will be damages by heavy equipment. In connection with Mr. Knippenbergts state-
ments as to assessments, a discussion was had on matter of corner-lot relief on
the street improvement, and it was noted that Mr. Knippenbergls Lot 5, Block 1,
Broadmore Addition is proposed to be assessed for only 1/2 of its total footage
abutting Grove Street. Mr, Charles Tunstead, 5629 Mycliffe Road, owner of Lot 4,
Block 1, Edina Highlands Lakeside Addn,, told Council he feels this is a matter
of area-wide improvement; that impDovement of Wycliffe Rd., and Grove Street west
of Wycliffe Road, will be of nobenefit unless Grove Otreet between Tracy and
Wycliffe is improved. Mr. Walter Peterson, representing Good Samaritan Methodist
Church
and Tracy Avenue on the North) told Council the Church is 100% in favor of surfac-
ing the street, now. One man, who did not give his name, asked that Grove Street
between klycliffe and Tracy be graded and oiled now, so that property owners would
have a couple of years to pay off present assessments before additional assessments
are levied.
added, so that street will drain into the pond.
Church dislikes being in a position of imposing a hardship on owners of adjoining
property but feels that street should be surfaced to provide access from Tracy
Avenue, inquired as to whether curb and gutter could be eliminated from the street
improvement. Manager Hyde told him the Village does not recommend $his; and, in
answer to a previous question about crowning the street, Mr. Hyde told Council that
if Grove Street is surfaced, now, without storm seHer, criticism is sure to come
when it is necessary to dig up the surfaced street for construction of storm utility.
Mr. Fridlund advocated reducing the proposed storm sewer still further, by extending
pipe to a point just north of the Grove Street right-of-way, and carrying water
by open ditch from there on.

of fill to meet with residents! request; that if residents do not feel that the
Village-proposed improvement is desirable the Village has no desire to insist
upon it. t-lr. Joe VanKirk, 5604 Code Avenue, reported that after the meeting of
May 28th, affected property owners had gotten together with legal counsel in an
effort to determine the area of responsibility for the drainage problems they
are now having; that, had they been able to determine that they were in any way
responsible the Council would find them ready, willing and able to drain this
hole themselves.
that if surface drainage is interefered by any person or corporation, the
responsibility for providing drainage then falls on that person or corporation,
Mr. VanKirk stated it is the opinion of the property owners that the Village was
solely responsible for blocking natural drainage by raising Code Avenue,
E.P. Donatelle, 5213 W.56th Street, corroborated Wr, VanKirk's statements,
reiterating his own remarks of May 28 to the effect that the Village had raised
Code Avenue by some twelve feet. Hr. VanKirk asked that the Village Attorney
be requested to investigate the matter to determine legal responsibLty. Attorney
Spencer reported that he will be glad to do so, but that this is largely a question
of fact, which will require some research. Dickson moved that the proposed Storm
