Circle, also the proposal by Mr. Cherne and Mr. Pearson, View Lane, for new
barricades located (1) View Lane as originally barricaded; (2) Schaefer Road,
mid-block between South Knoll Drive and Stauder Circle; and (3) Stauder Circle,
immediately east of the Stauder Circle and Londonderry Road intersection.
Mr. Hoffman gave the accident picture and a summary of the discussions as
outlined in the Minutes of the Traffic Safety Committee Meeting of July 10.
In answer to a Parkwood Knolls' resident inquiry if the barricades had been
evaluated on the basis of temporary or permanent reimplementation or both,
he replied that both had been considered. Mr. Erickson, City Attorney, sum-
merized his written legal opinion stating that "permanent blockades would be
tantamount to a vacation of the street which can only be done pursuant to
statutory procedures for hearing and finding that the streets no longer are
necessary to advance public interest".
barricades are within the police power of the City if they are in the interest
of public health, safety and welfare, but that permanent barricades are not
within the police' powers. Mr. Dick Wolsfeld remarked that closing streets
as proposed will do a better job of reducing volume on View and Schaefer than
the previous plan. Mr. Bill Chandler, 5713 Camelback Drive (President, Park-
wood Knolls Traffic Association) said the vast majority of people, 100-200
families, in Parkwood Knolls object to the barricades, either temporary or
permanent; and the people who support the barricades, approximately nine
families, live very near View and Schaefer. Mr. David Taft, 5606 Schaefer
Road, remarked that the petition signed earlier is not relevant as a statistic;
the proposed barricades give people access to the park, as well as emergency
vehicles, etc. He continued to say that traffic is excessive in this area
and unless barricades, STOP signs or some type of slow-down is effective,
there will be real problems. In answer to Councilman Johnson's questions,
Mr. Chandler stated that his Association did consider the matter and the vast
majority of the people in their Association do oppose the new version as well
as the old version. He also replied that there is no unanimity of the members
on View as to pro or con barricades; and the people in the Camelback, DeVille,
Continental area feel the barricades are a major restriction to emergency
vehicle access.
by the City if barricades slow response time of emergency vehicles. Mr. Erick-
son replied "no" , as there is still access to the area. Ms. Sara Taft, 5606
Schaefer Road, member of the Parkwood Knolls Ass'n, remarked that she feels
misrepresented as they are not against barricades and were not consulted.
also stated that instead of striving for an equitable solution for the whole
area, everyone is trying to protect his own interests. Mr. Chandler restated
that the majority reject barricades as it causes major problems.
McClelland, 5717 Continental Drive, (Vice-president of the Parkwood Knolls
Traffic Association) commented that five houses on the lower part of View are
against or question barricades; 1/4 to 1/3 of the total membership is on View
and Schaefer.

to receive the brunt of 400 cars per day, and traffic did not disperse as ex-
pected. In answer to Councilwoman Schmidt's question about speed limits, Mr.
Erickson replied there is a specific State Statute of 30 miles per hour for
residential streets. Mr. Cherne remarked that there is a big difference of
opinion, and the whole issue should be reviewed and petition the people who
are affected.
tion, such as turning restrictions at Blake Road-Excelsior and County Road 18
in Hopkins. Mr. Dunn stated he was not sure such signing would work, and
that one-way streets have not been thoroughly investigated. Mr. Taft remarked
that the topography makes 30 miles per hour too fast, and he is concerned about
the children and feels STOP signs will remind people to drive the speed limit.
He further stated that temporary

per hour, I He.suggested the City try to make alternative routes more attractive;
STOP signs offer some limited help. Also, that more problems are introduced if
there are too many STOP signs as they tend to irritate people. Mr. Dunn commented
that people tend to try to make up for all the time they have lost if stopped, say
four times, Londonderry to Vernon. Mr. Chandler stated they have not reviewed
STOP signs and Ms. McClelland commented that they have no stand on STOP signs.
Councilman Courtney said some solution must be reached. The Council has worked
on the problem since '71 with no progress, and the people can't wait until*-'75-

think that two weeks was enough trial time for barricades. .Anything that will
solve the situation and make this part of Edina a safe place to live should be
done. His first suggestion is to have the police enforce the speed laws; and
if barricades are so unpopular, try STOP signs.

to contribute to the safety of the area.

McClelland requested that the Council consider the suggestion of the Traffic
Safety Committee that the City place "NO PARKING 7-9 AM, 5-7 PM" signs at Stauder
Circle as parked cars at the tennis courts forces cars from the right lane into
the left, and there are blind curves.
that temporary "NO PARKING 7-9 AM, 4-6 PM" signs be placed there, using the good
judgment of the Safety Council.

gineers. Councilman Johnson asked Mr. Wolsfeld if, in his opinion, the signs
would have any effect, whatsoever, in diverting traffic at View & Schaefer onto
other roads.

interrupter since there is a natural tendency to drive 35-38 miles per hour
down View Lane. Councilman 3ohnson suggested a 20-mile per hour speed limit
with Mr. Dunn responding that this is illegal. The motion was then seconded
by Councilman Johnson; and on roll call, there were five ayes and no nays and

vacated Brookside Avenue).
Mr. Dunn explained that this improvement has been carried over since June 3 so
the staff could have further discussions with the property owners in the area.
The total estimated cost is $50,847.50, proposed to be assessed against two
parcels of property as follows, one owned by the City and the other owned by
the Paulsen interests, at 45-55 percent split in costs:
LOTS 1, 2, & 3, BLOCK3 (PARCEL 2450) GRANDVIEW HEIGHTS

referring to a petition presented July 15, requested that 56th Street between
Dale and Hansen be closed off and a bicycle or walking path be constructed
to the park due to the dangerous railroad crossing and the semaphore. Mr.
Murphy, representing twenty-four apartment dwellers at the corner of the
railroad tracks and Hansen Road, remarked that the exit at Hansen to Vernon
is difficult and a second access is necessary. After some discussion, Council-
man Johnson moved the improvement from Bernard to Dale be approved, deleting
the improvement from Dale to Hansen Road and referring the matter of the vaca-
tion of 56th Street to the Traffic Safety Committee.
and on roll call, there were five ayes and no nays and motion carried, (See

C. CONSTRUCTION OF STORM SEWER IMPROVEMENT IN THE FOLLOWING (P-ST.S-141)
)
Councilman Shaw seconded;
Across France Avenue just south of West 44th Street; also from alley
between Sunnyside Road and West 44th Street just west of France Avenue
west to ponding area.
Mr. Dunn explained that this is a storm sewer that is proposed to improve the
drainage situation in the vicinity of France, Sunnyside and 44th Street,
has an estimated total cost of $19,316.34, proposed to be assessed at 5-1/2
cents per square foot on residential property, 1-1/4 times that rate for
multiple family residential property and two times that rate for all commer-
cial property. Dr. Thomas Pirsch, Sunnyside Avenue, stated the storm sewer
was functioning adequately until Burger Brothers constructed a storage build-
ing behind their store on France Avenue. Apparently, three of the pilings
were driven through the.storm sewer. He feels an error was made by the City
of Edina, and therefore, the City should pay for the whole construction. Mr,
Dunn stated this is a true statement; however, he questioned the adequacy of
the system before the pilings were driven through the pipes, and Mr. Courtney
replied it was adequate when he was on the Morningside Council.
commented they were disturbed with the surveyor who provided the survey for
the Building Inspection Department because he did not show the easement on
the survey for the building permit, until it was noted that it was not an
easement but an agreement signed in 1945 and never recorded.
the builder and the Building Inspection Department were uninformed.
further stated the sever is functioning partially, but cannot handle heavy
rains in the area. Mr. Don Anderson, Griffen Pharmacy, said that they ex-
perienced no problems with water until the pilings were driven. Mr. Robert
Sullivan, 44th & France and owner of the property including the Drug Store,
commented he feels further examination of the need for the project is neces-
sary. Mr. Sam Thorpe stated that, under the circumstances, the property
owners of the area should not be held responsible. Mayor Van Valkenburg
requested that this matter be referred back to the Engineering Department
for more study and comment on whether or not there is a different solution
to the problem and whether or not it will definitely solve the problems of
these people. He also requested Mr. Thomas Erickson, City Attorney, to in-
vestigate what responsibility we have as the City and/or Burger Brothers or
their builder, or whoever is involved with the water problem. Councilman
Johnson moved the matter be continued to August 5th for further study.
Councilman Courtney seconded; and on roll call, there were five ayes and no
nays and motion carried. Councilman Courtney then offered the following
Resolution and moved its adoption:

ORDINANCE NO. 811-A? GRANTED FIRST READING AND CONCEPT APPROVAL. Affidavits of
Notice were presented by Clerk, approved as to form and ordered place on file.
Mr. Luce presented the request of Folke Victorsen for rezoning property located
at.the southwest corner of the interchange of Crosstown 62 and Gleason Road
from R-1 Residential District to PRD-3 Planned Residential District. Mr. Luce
explained that the proposal calls for a 74-unit apartment building on the north
side of the slope and single-family residential on the south side of the slope.
Planning Commission and Planning staff recommend that concept approval be granted
subject to the conditions stated by the Planning Commission. Mr. Luce said there
are 214- acres, with 21 single-family lots and 74-apartment units in a three level
building with 148 parking stalls.
over ten percent. Mr. Folke Victorsen explained that the access road to the
apartment building has been moved an additional 125 feet fromMcCauley Trail.
It was also pointed out that the noise factor renders the north side of the
slope unsuitable for single family dwellings, whereas the south side is suited
very well to single family homes. Mr. Luce said that this plan does provide a
workable solution to a difficult site due to the steep grade of the slope and
needed protection of the lake, yet it provides a reasonable transition from
single-family homes to multiple dwellings.
building would be hidden in the woods. Mr. Luce also stated that the traffic
generated by this unit would only be approximately 1-1/2 as much as single-
family housing and, furthermore, the saving of the trees on the slope would
help absorb noise from the Crosstown. Mr. Orrin Haugen, 6612 Indian Hills Road,
Ispeaking in opposition to the proposal on behalf of the Arrowhead Lake Improve-
ment Association, stated they feel the character of the neighborhood is estab-
lished as a single-family area, and the people are disturbed that the complex
Carrier, Indian Pond Circle, objected to the acute turn off steep Indian Hills
Pass, especially in the winter; and asked that another access be considered
for the safety of the children. Mr. Bernie Gunderson, Indian Pond Circle,
seconding Dr. Carrier's opinion on the almost hairpin turn, stated that he
thought he was moving into a single-family area, not expecting a 74-unit apart-
ment one-half block from his new residence.
Road, expressed concern over the increased traffic and the possibility of other
apartments coming into the area. Mr. Larry Bettes, 6601 Sally, also asked the
Council to consider the traffic problems. Mr. Jack Clark expressed opposition
to the entrance road to single family dwellings because of traffic and the
apartment complex. Mr. Karl Kaufmann, 6405 McCauley Circle, is concerned about
the traffic pattern and the access onto Gleason fromMcCauley Trail and increase
of traffic on Gleason from apartments, as well as changing the character of the
area. Mr. Brian Peterson, 6604 Indian Hills Road, questioned Mr. Luce's predic-
tions on trip generations as lots are larger than most Edina lots; also objects
to apartments in the area. Mrs. Thomas Carrier, Indian Pond Circle, commented
that they purchased real estate in the area to have a delightful place to live.
She further commented that Mr. Victorsen is experienced in real estate develop-
ment, and when he purchased the property was aware of the difficult typography
of the hill and zoning. Mr. Harry-- Murphy, 6508 Indian Hills Road, thinks a
multiple development facing the highway is the best approach as he is more
worried as to what will happen if some type of a multiple plan is not accepted,
such as denuding the hill for single-family dwellings.
commented that this proposal is a solution to some problems, less traffic per
unit than single-family on Gleason Road and does keep single-family next to
single-family and the apartment is separated. Mr. Shaw stated the Environ-
mental Quality Commission has had an opportunity to study the proposal,.the
Planning Commission has had a number of opportunities to study it, and they * believe it is an exceptional compromise. * minutes, the expressions of the people immediately adjacent relative to the

answer to Mayor Van Valkenburg's question if at the planning hearings there

a feasibility study of having the road going toward the northeast to Gleason

plan and would be considered in that.

RESOLUTION RESPONDING TO THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL'S
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK
WHEREAS the Metropolitan Council has completed "development framework poli-
cies" for the metropolitan area and is now soliciting reaction to alternative
methods of implementation, and
WHEREAS the City of Edina is an affected municipality whose future land use
decisions are in part dependent on the development framework and the method
of i t s imp 1 emen t a t ion,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Edina City Council in response to the
May 30, 1974 solicitation from John Boland, Metropolitan Council Chairman,
that the following be transmitted:
1.
2.
That Edina views itself as a developed area and is experiencing land use
decisions similar to a developed area; and
That Edina views sprawl and "leap frog" development as undesirable for
the following reasons:
a. More costly public and private facilities and services will be needed
to serve new fringe area development at a time when there is excess
capacity or inefficient use made of existing capital investments
within the built-up area.
Many of the public facilities and services on the fringe are paid
for, not only by the new residents but also by people who live in
the built-up areas. Yet these existing residents have little voice
in how development occurs.
b.
7/i5/74
J - c. Fringe area development which will result in the loss of valuable
open space and eventual surface and ground water pollution in many
areas will exact a high cost to the environment of the region.

there were five ayes and no nays and the Resolution was adopted.

Councilman Courtney be nominated by the Edina City Council for consideration
