Due notice having been given, public hearings were conducted and action taken as hereinafter . recorded : A. CONSTRUCTION OF NINE MILE CREEK CROSSING IN THE FOLLOWING: (P-BR-4) Mr. ,Hyde explained that this project is the result of a petition two years ago by 42 residents of the eastern Parkwood Knolls area expressing concern over the traffic volumes generated past their properties because of the lack of other means of ingress and egress in the western part of Parkwood Knolls. Subsequently, cards showing four alternate possibilities of additional access and egress were sent to 467 residents in the general area and 50.3 percent were returned. Based on the questionaire results, the staff recommended that the Council consider connecting Londonderry Road and Walnut Drive. volves the construction of a bridge over Nine Mile Creek at a cost of $76,179.08. The cost would be assessed against properties in accordance with the benefits received. The proposed assessment shows 61 lots abutting Schaefer Road, View Lane, Stauder Circle, Schaeffer Road to Londonderry, an estimated assessment of $236.00 per lot; all other lots north of Nine Mile Creek, 327 lots, $157.00 per lot; lots south of Nine Mile Creek, 129 lots, $78.86 per lot. Fletcher C, Waller, Jr., 5601 Schaefer Road, stated that because of heavy traffic in the west Parkwood Knolls area, urged the approval of the improvement. He further stated that in 1971, the Traffic Safety Committee recognized a future problem and recommended relief, one suggestion of which.was the connection of London- derry Road and Walnut Drive. A traffic count in the spring of 1972 showed 1,800 trips a day past the corner of View Lane and Schaefer Road. Mr. Waller also urged the development of a plan for northern access to County Road 18 prior to any further development of the west Parkwood Knolls area. Theodore Ryan, 5933 Walnut Drive, representing Walnut and Tamarac and the Western Home- owners Association, presented a petition of 170 signatures in opposition to the proposal. With the use of view graphs, he explained the invalidity of the survey and the lack of necessity for the improvements. He further stated that the connection of Londonderry Road to Count& Road 18 was a more viable alterna- Affidavits of Notice were presented Nine Mile Creek Crossing Connecting Walnut Drive and Londonderry Road This in- 7/16/73 tive. Jack Ziegler, 6012 Tamarac Avenue, Western Edina Homeowners Association, questioned the traffic count at Schaefer-View and Schaefer-Stauder. Richard Joseph, 5909 Walnut Drive; Don Shiff, 6127 Artic Way; and Pat Crow, 6113 Artic Way, also objected to the improvement. James Thorp, 5901 Walnut Drive, stated that he is interested in getting automobiles out to County Road 18 rather than through a residential area. Ernest Buffington, 5905 Walnut Drive, objected to the improvement because of the increased traffic past the Walnut Ridge Park. Mr. Hyde stated Malibu Drive will eventually be extended by normal development. Rolland Davis, 5900 Walnut Drive, said that he had furnished the Council with detailed survey information dated July 13, 1973; and that based on such analysis, the connection was unnecessary. Mr. Hyde remarked that Mr. Davis failed to recognize that the vast majority of trips from the area are to the south and to the east, not to the north or to the west. Mr. Davis pointed out the dis- crepancies in the questionnaire. David Eklund, 6604 Londonderry Drive, stated that because of the apartment development in the area, he would not use the proposed connection, Marshall Pieczentkowski, 6537 Polar Circle, suggested a careful study so traffic is not all funneled onto Vernon. William Cunningham, 5928 Walnut Drive, asked the proponents of the bridge if any consideration had been given at all to the possible affects of the apartments.

In reply thereto, Mr. Hyde explained that no formal action was under consideration a year ago. been made to determine the adequacy of the roads in the area due to new apart- ments. Mr. Dunn stated a study of development in the area generally south of Nine Mile Creek, east of 18 and north of Crosstown to determine the particular affect of proposed development on Old 169 and Vernon Avenue and Lincoln Drive had been conducted. Lee Otis, 6620 Parkwood Road, objected to the improvement and stated it was too costly. Mrs. Peter Robinson, 6236 Knoll Drive, objected to the proposed assessment. An unidentified gentleman, Walnut Drive, remarked that the Walnut Drive bridge would be an easier route to Knollwood. After con- siderable discussion, Councilman Johnson stated that the members of the Traffic Safety Committee are experts in the area of traffic safety and that his decision concerning the matter would be based in part on the recommendations of that Committee. He suggested, however, that the Traffic Safety Committee had not, prior to making their recommendations of May 31, 1972, had the benefit of the input that the Council was receiving. Therefore, he moved that the matter be continued until the first meeting in August, with the understanding that prior to such meeting, the Traffic Safety Committee would conduct a public hearing, taking special note of the apartments west and north and their possible usage of the bridge. hearing so that could inform other interested persons. seconded the motion and motion carried unanimously.

Motion for adoption of the resolution was seconded by Councilman Courtney and on roll call, there were five ayes and no nays and the resolution was adopted. SOUTH EDINA PLAN GRANTED CONCEPT APPROVAL. Mr. Luce recalled consideration of the South Edina Plan was continued by the Council from the July 2nd meet- ing, and he noted tha,t the Plan area is bounded by West 70th Street on the north, the south Village limits (Bloomington) on the south, Cahill Road on the west and the east Village limits (Richfield) on the east. It basically provides for an area of moderate density multiple dwellings near 70th and Nine Mile Creek, a new north/south road, a frontage road along Highway 100 south from 70th Street, a low density buffer on Lynmar Lane and future land use projections for land south of Yorktown. multiple dwellings at about 12 units per acre is proposed on the east side of York Avenue. Street to the Village limits, compatible with the existing 'industrial develop- ment in Edina and in Bloomington along 494. He noted land in the "exception area" is proposed to be zoned in accordance with development plans submitted that follow the written goals and objectives in the Plan text. Land uses in the "exception area" are not specifically identified, but rather, traffic generation is limited in conformance with the DMJM Study recommendations. Approval of the South Edina Plan does not necessarily mean the Council is approving the DMJM Study, but only that element of the DMJM Study which determines the maximum trip generation for property in this "exception area". Regarding land use in the "exception area", Mr. Luce explained retail com- mercial would be prohibited, offices on the west side of the commuter trail would be encouraged; and, on the east side of the commuter trail, a maximum of 35 percent of the trips generated would be allowed to be non-multiple residential. Used to the highest degree, that area would provide approxi- mately 20-24 units per gross acre. The 5 percent parkland dedication in this area should come in the form of land and for dedications above and beyond that, the developer should be allowed greater density in exchange. Mr. Luce reviewed the goals and objectives, which basically relate to the traffic and transportation elements of the Plan, found on page five of the Plan text. Regarding the trip generation, he stated the Plan allows the highest possible concentration of land use in the area without exceeding the maximum number of trips allowed based on the DMJM Study recommendations. If it can be documented that that number is no longer appropriate, then modification of the Plan should occur. Mr. Luce described the transition of land use encouraged from France to Xerxes Avenue; and stated that as one of the Plan goals, larger developments . have been encouraged to reserve larger amounts of open space and to provide a variety of housing types and styles. In reply to Mr: Shaw, Mr. Luce briefly explained the 494/100 Task Force is discussing the feasibility of one-way frontage roads connecting.the diamond interchanges at 494 and France and Penn Avenues with a slip ramp arrangement. Mr. Luce noted that the South Edina Plan proposes what he feels is the highest optimum use for the land, allowing for future transit; however, others may feel that to encourage transit, the area should be allowed to develop to a higher degree than the existing traffic facilities can handle. basically described in land use types rather than by specific zoning district. The multiple land use area represents a reasonable density range, which allows some flexibility for the developer and Village. The Plan assumes the maximum number of units allowed under the maximum DM;M tmfftc counts, not an average, A buffer or transitional use of The Plan calls for industrial development south of 76th In reply to Mr. Johnson, Mr, Luce said the plan is 7/16/73 ., _Mr, Johnson requested the record show that, if adopted, "this plan is just a plan and does not assure anyone of the maximum density shown". planned industrial area abutting Bloomington and existing freeway development, Mr. Luce explained that the difficulty is traffic and not the land use element; Regarding the therefore, should a land use be proposed which would be more advantageous than industrial and yet maintain the goals and objectives of the South Edina Plan, the Village should have flexibility to allow for improvement in the development .. . -* - *. of the area. He added that the Village Attorney has indicated that rezoning a piece of' property takes precedence over the adopted Plan, and the Plan is thereby amended by rezoning. cedure of the Plan in regard to the Metropolitan Council, Greg Luce informed the Council that the Plan must be submitted to the Metropolitan Council for review. Randy Cote, Mapco Sand and Gravel, stated that they own contiguous - property both in Bloomington and Edina, and that all property being developed along the 494 Corridor should be permitted equal intensity of use. Bredesen commented that regardless of intensity of use intended for the Bloomington property, he did not feel it would be appropriate for the Village of Edina to authorize a more intense use of Mapco's property, and thus cam- pound transportation problems in the area. pointed out that the DMJM report suggested a lower densiry use for his property. Mayor Bredesen also remarked that the arguments presented by Mr. Cote are con- cerning matters in the City of Bloomington over which Edina has no.contro1. He further stated that the Plan, as proposed, was an attempt to alleviate potential traffic problems in the area while still providing a reasonable plans. He called attention to a letter of July 2 to the Council, submitted by Brauer ti Associates, in which they stated that the concept and substance of the South Edina Plan is misleading, misdirected, unfair and unacceptable, and that it should be challenged by the property owners. Councilman Johnson asked whether or not Brauer and Associates were employed by the clients of Mr. Fink, and he answered in the affirmative. Bob Engstrom, one of four owners. * * .' of the property on the west side of York Avenue from 74th to 76th, introduced Dick Nolsfeld of Bather, Ringrose, Wolsfeld. Mr. T?olsfeld stated that his firm is presently retained by the Metropolitan Transit Commission to do a traffic analysis for future mass transit of the metropolitan area, a portion of which would affect Edina, and that his firm was the consultant for Yorktown. Mr. Wolsfeld stated that he is in agree- ment with the Plan except for that part of the '$exception area'' relating to maximum non-residential trips per acre for land east of the commuter trail. * Mr. Luce replied that the intent was to permit a mixture of non-commercial land uses with a maximum non-residential trip generation of 35 percent. further stated that the purpose of this proposal was to permit the optimum of the streets by creating splits in the peak traffic generation periods. After discussion, the Council ordered that that part of the Plan be amended to require a split of 65 percent residential and 35 percent office. John Hedberg, representing Hedberg and Sons Company, referred to his letter to the Council stating that he questioned the propriety of a South Edina Plan to take the place of the previously adopted Southeast Edina Plan, replied that a change between the two plans was prompted by a desire to con- form to the DWM Study. Committee's Plan for bicycle paths, stating he was concerned such action might be interpreted as an endorsement of that Bicycle Path Plan at a time when no firm decision has been made on the subject by the Council. Council- . man Johnson offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: In answer to Alison Fuhr's question on the pro- -:-* I Mayor - % ./ Councilmen Shaw and Johnson further % I:: use of the property.

Also, that the approval of the plan was with the understanding that it was merely a plan and that there was no assurance that the Council would rezone properties in accordance with the plan; that if the Council did rezone the properties in accordance with the plan, there was no assurance that the Council would permit the maximum density specified in the plan; and that, depending on future traffic con- ditions, the plan may have to be changed. Motion for adoption of the resolution approving the South Edina Land Use Plan, a copy of which is attached and made a portion of these Minutes, was seconded by Councilman Courtney and on roll call, there were five ayes and no nays and the resolution was adopted. Inserting a 7/16/73 KARL KRAHL PRD-3 ZONING REQUEST DENIED. approved as to form and ordered placed on file by motion of Councilman Shaw, seconded by Councilman Courtney and carried. Mr. Luce presented the request of Karl Krahl for rezoning of his property located generally south of Vernon Avenue, west of Artic Way, described as follows: Affidavits of Notice were presented, That part of the East half of the Southeast Quarter of the Southwest Quarter of Section 31, Township 117, Range 21 West of the 5th Principal Meridian described as follows: . beginning at a point on the South line of Section 31 distant 30 feet East from the Southwest corner of said East half of the Southeast: Quarter of the Southwest Quarter; thence Easterly along the South line of Section 31 to the Southeast corner of the Southwest Quarter of Section 31; thence Northerly along the East line of the Southwest Quarter of Section 31, to the centerline of State Highway No. 169; thence Southwesterly along said centerline to a line run Northerly from the point of beginning parallel with the West line of said East half of the Southeast Quarter of the Southwest Quarter of Section 31; thence Southerly along said parallel line to the point of be- ginning. Mr. Luce stated this was the original plan and no new plan has been sub- mitted to the Planning Commission, nor a new application. This plan was reviewed by the Planning Commission and approved and reviewed by the Environ- mental Quality Commission, and they recommended denial. Since nothing new had occurred'since the first hearing on the merits of the rezoning, Council- man Johnion moved that the proposed rezoning be denied because the density is too great, there are traffic problems in the area and the coverage is too great for such a unique site. Councilman Courtney seconded the motion. On roll call, there were four ayes with Mayor Bredesen voting nay and motion carried. Mayor Bredesen remarked that he feels tk proposal is a reasonable use of the land; and with a few minor changes, it would be acceptable. ORDINANCE NO. 811-A40 GRANTED FIRST READING. Affidavits of Notice were presented, approved as to form and ordered placed on file. Pursuant to due notice given, public hearing was conducted and action taken as herein- after recorded. Mr. Luce stated this is a suggested amendment by the Planning Commission, initiated by the staff, after some discussion with several real estate agents who are looking for uses of two areas of the Village; namely, Valley View Road and Wooddale, and also the 70th and Cahill area.

It would also preclude the cul-de-sacing of Valley View if that road alignment option is chosen. Mr. Luce further stated this lot was platted as an outlot because of the questionable road system; and inasmuch as the road construction is not resolved, it is the point of view of the Engineering and Planning Departments that it should not be declared a buildable lot.
