VALLEY VIEW ROAD "NO TURN" SIGN TO BE REPLACED IJITH "NO LEFT TURN" SIGN PURSUANT
TQ MUNICIPAL JUDGE'S RULING. In accordance with Council's direction of August 12,
a Public Hearing was conducted on the matter of traffic control at the corner of
Valley View Road and Highway 100; the specific matter under discussion being the
prohibition of right turns for traffic traveling West toward Highway 100,
petition of 132 neighborhood residents, requesting removal of the "No Turn"
restriction was presented. Manager Hyde announced to the large audience present
that as of September 5, 1963, the Edina Municipal Court has ruled :the erection
of the signs forbidding a right turn from Valley View Road onto Highway #lo0 for
westbound traffic upon Valley View Road is illegal and not in compliance with the
law" for the reson thatfthe Commissioner of Highways has not granted permission
for the erection of such signs'; this ruling having been made as the result of
the issuance of a traffic ticket for an illegal turn and the subsequent contest
of this ticket. Mayor Bredesen stated that as he reads this ruling the Council
has no choice except to discontinue trying to control this traffic. Nr. Wallace
Lilja, 4717 Valley View Road, asked for additional stop signs on Valley View
Road between Wooddale Avenue and Highway 100, to slow down traffic, Hr. Hyde
reported the Police Department has already recommended against any additional.
stop signs in this area; and Mr. Bredesen addedthe Police opinion is based on
experience which shows that stop signs placed for only the purpose of slowing
traffic tend to increase speeds rather than slow them, because drivers become
impatient Mr. Bredesen suggested the most
efficient control would be to have the Police Department be especially vigilant
in watching this stretch for speeding problems. Mr. J. D. Murphy, 4720 Valley

disagreed with this statement, saying the promise to dead-end Valley View Road
was made contingent upon the improvement of Highway 100 as well as the Crosstown.
Trustee MacMillan, after identifying the. neighborhood meeting about which Mr.
Murphy had spoken as one he (MacMillan) had attended while he was owner of the
property on the corner of Valley View Road and Highway 100, stated to the audience
and asked that it be written into the record that his recollection of this meeting
was that it was developed at the meeting that Valley View Road would be closed
when the access roads were put in place; that it would be a 37-foot street with
no parking until such time as street was closed, at which time "No Parking" signs
would be removed.

place, stating Valley View Road residents will be glad to do everything they
can to secure permission from the State Highway Department for its "installation".
Mr. Charles Higgins, 5829 Concord Avenue, one of the sponsors for the removal
petition, reminded Council there are more Edina residents inconvenienced by. the
sign than are benefited by it, and that these residents protest its continuance.
MacMillan then moved that the "No Turn" Sign at the comer of Valley View Road
and Highway 100 be replaced with a "No Left Turn" sign until such time as Valley
View Road residents obtain Highway Department permission for installation of
"No Turn" Sign at this corner.

that inclusion of Mendelssohn Lane. in this proposed improvement may save the Lane
residents as much as $200 each, compared with the cost of installing water in
Mendelssohn Lane alone, at a future date; that if the Lane is excluded from the
improvement, the estimated cost for laterals in the balance of the district will

Mr. Garrison now has a buyer for a lot in the right-of-way; that Hopkins will proceed
to acquire the lot if there is reasonable assurance that Edina is still in favor or
working with Hopkins on the opening of the road. Mr. Wegner added there are some distinct advantages to Edina in the road's opening, one being it will give us the
opportunity to eliminate dead ends in the water system, thus improving it. Manager
Hyde inquired as to whether this street would get Super-Valu traffic to Blake Road.
Planning Director Hite replied in the negative, saying there is now being prepared a
proposal for getting traffic from Super-value directly out to County Road #18 without
using Edina of; Hopkins residential streets. Mr, Hite added Hopkins has no immediate
plans for the opening of Second Street, but does not want to spend the money to acquire
this lot unless there is Edina assurance that proposed road meets with Council's favor.
