this is the Village's first attempt to propose an assessment to non-abutting
properties for the improvement of cross streets; that, although notice of 'hearing
was published, mailed notices were not sent because there is still work to be done
on the proposed formula for assessment; that streets are in need of surfacing and

worked out, the project should be scheduled for Hearing.

Hyde explained that this project is being proposed by the Village because of a
problem which exists in Schaefer Road abutting the Rice property, and the complaints
and requests for pumping each time there is a heavy rain, and also because tho
ponding at this point makes it difficult to maintain the surface,

built across a swamp; that he had built a shoulder about twelve feet from the edge
of the road, made a pond out of the swamp, and had planted trees to beautify the
property; that Harold Schaefer had subsequently installed a tile down the side of
the road to the south pond; that the Gas Company had dug up the tile in 1952 but
there was no record of their having replaced it. Dr. Rice told Council there had
been little trouble until last year, when the Rices lost three trees; that the
Village had asked permission to open the culvert this year (culvert draining from
west to east, on Schaefer property), and that this permission had been granted, and
the VLllaga had subsequently pumped on three different occasions.
for the amount of this year's pumping bill ($145) he could afford to pay the full
bill each year for forty years, for the amount of his assessment far tho proposed
storm sewer. F4anager Hyde asked if it would be feasible to just bring the drain
down the side of the road to where it used to be, and Public Borks Director Gans
re;oorted that the matter of a former drain tile is still a moot point, because of
the fact that there is a six-foot difference in ground levels between the high
point between the two ponds and the ponds themselves, Adding that the Village

that in addition to the problem of repairing the surface, there is the necessity
of the maintenance crew's dropping whatever it might be doing to pump the area,
He reported that the only permanent solution to the problem is the construction
of the storm sewer--that whether this is the time for 3uch construction, or
whether there is some other time for it, it must be done some time,
stated he would much prefer that the Village continue to pump the pond; that

area to pay his share of the pumping cost on a basis conlparablc to that shown
in the assessment area.
chance of getting a voluntary neighborhood agreement for payment of pumping
costs, Dr, Rice said he would think so. Mrs. Roy Larson told Council she finds
it difficult to believe that owners of abutting properties are rosponsible for
drainage of the street; that she and Nr. Larson and the Schaefers gave the
street in its present condition to the Village some 24 years ago, and that it
has had surprisingly little maintenance since that time,
of the Schaefer Road water drains north past her house, to a pond that the
Larsons formerly owned; that there was no water on Schaefer Road last Friday
afternoon, immediately after a downpour, Mrs, Harold Schaefer reported that
there is a tile from a pond just north of the Dahlquist house draining into her
pond; that she is perfectly willing that Schaefer Road water be pumped into the
large pond, and would like storm sewer project delayed if possible,
Dahlquist reported he, too, believes project is unnecessary; 'chat he differs

an:engineer representing the Roy Larsons, suggested that the problem could be
worked out at a much smaller cost than that proposed, by raising the level of
the road at the time it must be torn up for a good base. Captain Gans answered
*that the Village Engineering Department has taken cross sections and made careful
study of the problem; feels that storm sewer is the solution--and, further than
that, knows that in the future the Schaefer P.ond must be drained, eventually to

construction must be an assessment project if and when it is determined to be
necessary.
AND, GUTTER, IN GOYA. LANE FROM, HIGHTilAY NO,. 169, TO-anager i-Iyde reviewed
for Council and audience the proceedings on this proposed project to date:
filing of a supposedly 100% petition for Portland Cement Concrete Paving, and the
resulting ordering of the improvement by the, Council without a Public Hearing; the
taking of bids, and the subsequent discovery that the petition was signed by
owners of only seven of eight benefited lots; the rejektion of the bids because
of this discovery and because bids had been tied to bids for improvoments on other
streets for which lower Asphalt Concrete bids had been received; the decision to
call this Hearing. Estimated Cost of proposed improvement was given as follows:
$6,863.02, proposed to be assessed against 784,78 Ft., for $8.75 per Ft,
B, PORTLAND CEMENT COidCRETE PAVING WITH INTEGRAL CUR3 - $9,250.57, proposed
to be assessed against 784.78 Ft,, fro $11.79 par Ft.
Mrs. Mabel H. Johnson, blayzata, owner of Lot 8, which fronts on Highway #169 but
abuts Goya Lane, protested the cost, reporting that she has just been assessed for
a Sanitary Sewer after installing a new drain field,
Lot 2, told Council that owners of Lots 1 through 7 have no objection to an
alternative of Asphalt Concrete Paving if the Village feels it will serve as well
and be less expensive,
between construction this year in contrast to waiting until next year for the
Portland Cement Paving, the consensus is definitely that the Asphalt be used.
Captain Gans reported that because there is very little Portland Cement work this
year, the difference in cost may possibly be as much as $3,00 per foot--which is
'coo much of a difference for comparable construction,
developed Goya Lane, reported Egan, Field and Wowak had surveyed the street for
her; had assured her it would drain to Highway #169. Captain Gans informed her

the taking of bids on both Poptland Cement Concrete and Asphalt Concrete Surfacing

PETITIO!?- FOR, CROSS STREET OR SIbEyIALii BETHEEN EKING AVENUE AXD' F,WXE AVENUE;
Manager Hyde and Planning Director Hite esplained that there is no provision for
a cross street between 1.1.60th Stzeet and the Cross Town Highway, between France
and Ewing Avenues; that Ewing Avenue residents have filed a petition for eithir
such'a cross street, or a pedestrian access from Ewing Avenue to France Avenue
along the Cross Town right-of-way, and that Hennapin County has agreed that the
.north five feet of its right-of-way may be, used for such pedestrian access,
Rr. Edward Bergquist , representing Mr . and Mrs , Elmer Johnson, 6325 France Avenue,
whose property abuts the proposed pedestrian access, told Council that the
Johnsons are protesting this proposed walkway because It deprives him of the
privacy he purchased when he-purchased his home; that the Cross Town ramp has
already deprived him of some of this privacy; also, there are no sidewalks
running parallel to France Avenue, and the only pedestrians who would be using
the walk way are children on bicycles, and that this is a very dangerous area
for this type of thing because it will be immediately adjacent to the ramp,
$1~. Johnson complained to the Council that - 1, He is paying mora taxes on his
property than his neighbors down the street who have more valuable homes.
He is paying utilities assessments on property he does not ovm.3.The Village

6308 Ewing Avenue, told Council, that neighbors on Etiing Avenue are interested in
securing some way to get out to France Avenue without having to walk to W.6Oth
Street to do so; that the children in the area are picked up at the corner of
France and the Cross Town by the Richfield School Bus; that sone people work at
Southdale and catch the bus at this corner. Nrs, V.E. Soderberg, 6312 Ewing,
told Council that original Cross Town plans showed a service road on the north
side of the highway; that this had disappeared with adoption of plans for the
ramp; that all the neighbors want is access to France Avenue for the young
children in the area, who will.be sorely tempted to cut through private property
rather than walk ten blocks to arrive at a destination one block away.
Bergquist Is comment that this will be dangerous, Nrs. Soderberg replied that
it will very little more dangerous than having youngsters go to I.I.60th Street
because vehicles on the ramp will be preparing to stop at France Avenue. Mr,
Johnson told Council that County had promised to construct a five-foot fence
on the north right-of-way line from France Avenue to the westerly edge of his
driveway where it enters the highway rizht-of -way, then approximately five feet
south of the traveled portion of the driveway to Ewing Avenue; and had given him
permission to fence from his southeast property south to the highway fence and
place a gate across the driveway; this according to a letter from Assistant
County Engineer A, L. McXay, written January , 1962
Ewing, then produced copy of letter to her from County Engineer Faderson, dated
September, 1961, pronising placement of a fence five feet south of the north
right-of-way line so that there would be a continuous strip of land owned by
Hennepin County between Eence and northerly right-of-way line, for use by
pedestrians.

relative to pre-payment of special assessments; that amendment can be made to
differentiate between different types of development (Open Development District
to have one regulation, Non-Residential property another type of regulation), if
this is what the Council wishes to do, Anothor lengthy discussion was had
by the Council with regard to a possible amendment to Ordinance No- 263 to
eliminate for non-residential properties the requirement that special assessments
be prepaid upon change of title, Mayor Bradcsen oppdsed any differance in
regulations between residential and non-residential plats,
favored a difference in this respect only, stating he feels the three-year
term should still stand,
non-residential developers will be requesting the same type of relief as that
now requested by' the Rauenhorsts; that a utilities-financing plan for non-
residential properties had not even been thought of at the time the plan for
residential developments was adopted. Asked by Trustee Tupa how neighboring
municipalities handle non-residential utilities assessments, Mr. Hite replied
that Bloomington will assess non-residential areas'over a term of up to 40
years; St.Louis Park and Brooklyn Park require both residential and non-
residential developers to put in.their own utilities and pay for them; Ncw Hope
assesses up to 20 years; Golden Valley assesses for a normaltarm; that the
general going practice is to not require non-residential developers to pay for
utilities, but to assess over a normal assessment termr Asked by Trustee
MacMillan if Mr. Kite's recommendation for elimination of assessment pre-
payment in non-residential developments is that of management, Mr. Hyde
replied in the affirmative, stating that the Village can still safeguard its
credit rating with the requirement of a bond guaranteeing payment+
Tupa stated he feels that if the credit situation has changed, the Village
should go to a five-year assessment term for everybody; and was reminded that
the only matter under consideration is that of pre-payment on change of title,
Mayor Bredesen asked if there would be merit in eliminating this requirement
from residential developments, and Messrsi Hite, DaLen and Xyde all reported
that there is merit to this suggestion; that enforcement.of the ordinance is
difficult; that only one developer has used the three-year, ppepayment-on-
title-change
agreement is on file it has proved difficult to find in title searches,
Trustee Tupa moved that,in view of the Village's satisfactory experience on
the three-year term assessment basis, the Village stay on the three-year basis
in all respects, with no change in Ordinance,
and carried, with Dickson voting No.
