PETITION TO DENY OR PERMIT PETITION FOR REZONING KARL KRAHL PROPERTY DENIED.
Affidavits of Notice were presented by Clerk, approved as to form and ordered
placed on file.
the Edina West Company for approval of a petition for a zoning hearing for
the Karl Krahl property, located South of Vernon Avenue and West of Arctic
Way.
the Planning Commussion under Ordinance No, 811-A28, there must be a change
of conditions or other new evidence affecting the parcel of land. He added
that if the Council finds such change at this hearing, it would then allow
a petition for rezoning to be filed with the Planning Department, which
would then go through the regular rezoning routine and the matter would once
again come before the Council. Mr. Marshall Pieczentkowski, 6535 Polar
Circle, said that he was representing the Viking Hills Homeowners Association,
as well as the Walnut Tamarac Association. He questioned the right of Mr.
Gittleman to file another petition for the rezoning of the Krahl property,
inasmuch as Hennepin County records indicate that the property is.owned by
Ellen W. Garrison and V. McKenzie. He submitted further that a renewal of
the request for rezoning to PRD-3 Residential District, even at lesser limits
than the current. proposal,. does not constitute a change of conditions or other
evidence. In response to Mr. Gittleman's contention that the purchase agree-
ment which he has signed gives him an ownership interest in the property, Mr.
Erickson said that Mr. Gittleman has standing for this meeting, but would not
have standing to sign a petition for rezoning.
fact that preliminary plat approval had been granted for twenty single family
residential lots constituted a "change in circumstances".
site data sheet for the property in questkon which indicated the net amount
of undisturbed,areas under the residential proposal would be only 39.8%, and
63.9% under his proposal for high quality condominiums. He emphasized that
the presemation of the hill under his proposal would be reason enough to
conduct a new zoning hearing, and requested that the matter be referred to
the Planning Commission for hearing so that he could work with residents in
the neighborhood and satisfy the greatest number of people.
6805 Point Drive, said that he is the President of the Homeowners! Coalition
and urged that Counqil determine that no change of conditions exists in the
property. Others appearing in protest to granting the petition and c9ncur-
ring with the remarks'of Mr. Pieczentkowski, were Mr. Jack Ziegler, 6012
Tamarac Ave., representing Nest Edina Homeowner's Assn., Dr. Glen Lewis, 6328
Gleason Road, representing the Indian Hills Homeowners Association, and Mr,
Larry,Horion, 6148 Arctic Play,
Mr. Wm. B. BOSCOW, 6142 Arctic Way, recommending that Council grant the Plan-
ning Commission permission to hear Mr. Gittleman's proposal at this time,
even though the waiting period has not expired.
from the audience, Mr. Luce said that Mr. Krahl's single fimily development
plat, as approved by the Council, included cut and fill for the road. Council- - woman Schmidt brought out that the single family plat had been referred to
the Environmental Quality Commission and that the Commission had felt that
the plat was not ideal, but was within acceptable limits.
the Commission had wondered why no residents of the area had appeared at that
meeting- Councilmen Johnson and Courtney said that they did not believe
that allowing a new rezoning petition to be filed can be justified under
Ordinance No. 811-A28 because that ordinance requixes that a change of condi-
tions or new evidence be presented and because the only evidence presented
has'been that the property might be developed for single family residence
purposes under the present zoning, with a resulting impact on the Broperty
greater than a Planned Multiple Development, which knowledge the Council has
always had and considered at the time the previous application for rezoning
was denied. Fallowing considerable discussion, Councilman Johnson's motion
that no petition for rezoning be allowed to be filed was seconded by Council-
man Courtney and on the rollcall there were four ayes and no nays and the
request of Mr. Gittleman to allow a new petition foL rezoning to be filed was
denied because no change of conditions or new evidence was present.

e said affidavits being for requests of Ebenezer Society, Inc., for rezoning from
R-1 Residential District to PRD-5 Planned Residential District and preliminary
plat approval of Ebenezer Society 1st Addition.
Society has proposed to develop a 12.9 acre plat located generally. West of York
Avenue between N. 74th and W. 76th Streets. The proposed development calls for
construction of 320 dwelling units for persons 65 years of age and older in
three buildings of ten, thirteen and sixteen stories in height. Mr. T. A.
Thompson of the Ebenezer Society, Inc., staff presented graphics of the three
phase concept and indicated that plans call for a combination of one and two
bedroom units which would have access from FJ. 76th Street. In response to
questions of Councilmen Courtney and Johnson'as to the height'of the sixteen
story building, Mr. Luce said that taller buildings provide more open space and
add grace to the area.

residents would be closer to elevators. Council was also told that the pro-
perty would not bekkexempt.
6104 Arctic Ray, Mr. Thompson reviewed the history of Ebenezer Society's
provisions for the elderly and said that the property would not be subsidized
by the government. Mr. John Hedberg of Hedberg & Sons questioned development
of land to the North of the proposed building. He was told by Mr. Luce that
this land would be encumbered in some manner and that Ebenezer Society would
be required to make a 5% cash payment in lieu of dedication of parkland.
cussion ensued as to the possibility of a property trade with Hedberg & Sons.
Mr. Erickson said that it would be necessary to go before the Board of
Appeals and Adjustments for a parking variance, but that no other variances
would be necessary. Mr. Dun0 told Mr. Hedberg that Parklawn Avenue is a
dedicated street and that he could petition for its development East to York
Avenue.
Inc., should explore the legality of its proposal under the Age Discrimination
Act. The motion of Councilwoman Schmidt for approval of the proposed zoning
and preliminary plat died for the lack of a second with Councilmen Courtney
ahd Johnson stating their objections to high rise buildings in Edina.
Hyde suggested that if Council wished to reconsider permitted heights of build-
ings, this might be, an appropriate time for the Planning Commission to.review
height restrictiorls. Councilman Courtney's motion was then seconded by *'
Councilman Johnson and carried that the zoning requestsand preliminary plat be
tabled and that Ebenizer Society, Inc., come back with another plan.
