tion costs remaining the same as for Condition I. Mr. Dunn recalled that these
improvements had been continued with the thought that additional information
would be available on the status of the highway construction and on the status
of immediate need of some of the individual properties that are involved. Mr.
Dunn said that Mr. Barry Willmert, 6630 Normandale Road, intends to reacquire .
his house from the Highway Department and move it back on his property. Mr. Dunn
suggested that, if there is no interest by any of the property owners at this
time, the project could be cut back so that the watermain would only be installed
from W. 66th Street to 6620 Normandale Road. He added that Mr. Willmert could
then install a septic tank and well for his new location. In response to object-
ions from Mr. Will.mert, Mr. Dunn pointed .out that this is the only way that: Nr.
Willmert could have continuous occupancy of his house, inasmuch as construction
of the utility projects would take between six to nine months.
ized that, because of funding problems, there is no kay of knowing hoWsspon the

that it is hoped to let the project in July, 1976. Alternative methods of con-
struction were discussed in response to objections to the proposed improvements
and to the proposed method of assessment by Mr. Joseph Hauser, 5045 W. 66th St.,
and Mr. Strand who represented his mother who lives at 6610 Normandale Road.
Mr. Erickson explained that benefited properties could be assessed for the trunk
sewer at this time and that the lateral would be assessed at the time of con-
nection. Mr. Erickson clarified that benefited properties would be determined
at the Assessment Hearing. Following lengthy discussion, Councilman Courtney’s
motion that the improvements be abandoned at this time and that new notices be
sent out after information is available from the Highway Department, was sec-
.onded by Councilwoman Schmidt and carried.

C. SIDEWALK IMPROVEFIENT NO. P-S-17 IN THE FOLLOWING:
W. 66th Street (North side only) from Rolf Avenue to Ridgeview Drive; Ridge-
view Drive (both sides) from W. 66th Street to Valley Lane; Valley Lane
(borh sides) from Ridgeview Drive to Valley
(East side only) from Valley Lane to W. 66th Street
Mr. Rosland recalled that this hearing had been continued from February 23, 1976,
because of.confusion at the last meeting and so that traffic studies could be .
tabulated and discussed at this meeting.
attention to a petition supporting installation of a sidewalk on both sides of
Valley Lane from Valley View Road to Limerick Drive, along with a letter from
Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Eller, 5513 Valley Lane, stating that they have withdrawn
their names from a petition opposing the improvement. Mr. Otis Montgomery, 6544
Sqarren Avenue, objected to the improvement as did Mr. and Mrs. Leigh Marquardt,
5501 Valley Lane. Mr. Marquardt presented a petition in opposition to any side-
wzlk on Valley Lane and on Ridgeview Drive. Note was macle of a petition favor-
ing the installation of a sidewalk on both sides of Valley Lane from Valley View
Road to Limerick Drive. Speaking in favor of the improvement were Mr. Steven
Shamblott, 5500 Valley Lane, and a resident at 6500 Limerick Drive. Mr. DUM
reviewed a traffic study: made in the area which indicated that an accident pro-
blem had developed on the Westbound lane of Valley Lane at Creek Drive which, up:
to this point, has been*solved by the STOP signs.. It was noted,-however, that
the STOP signs have created a secondary problem during poor weather, inasmuch as
motorists have had difficulty in stopping and starting on Valley Lane. The study
indicated that 1) Due to the curvilinear street on Valley Lane, a large per-
centage of cars were travelling under the speed limit which made those travelling
at the limit appear to be speeding; 2) several dogs were running across streets;
3) many childrezl play in and around the street; 4) many bicycles were.-im@roperly
ridden in the street. Mr. Frank Pollitt, 6412 Limericlc Lane, suggested that a
new survey should be conducted since the STOP signs were installed. Mr. N. W,
Solberg, 5504 Valley Lane, was told that constructioa of a pedestrian bridge
is:being proposed across Nine Mile Creek near Valley View Road.
In response to a question of Mayor Van Valkenburg, Mr. Dunn said that the Traffic
Safety Committee had not recommended the STOP sign already on Valley Lane,
clarified that they believe that STOP signs create a false sense of security
since the signs are often not observed and that the City recommends as few STOP
signs as possible. No further discussion being heard, Councilman Richards
moved that the sidewalk be approved for the East side of Valley View Road from
W. 66th Street to Valley Lane and on the South side of Valley Lane along the park
property, ending 10 feet Vest of the West line of Lot 1, Block 4, Edina Valley
Estates 2nd Addition, so that there is no encroachment on private property.
Motion was seconded by Councilman Courtney and carried.

that this improvement is inadequate and was told by the Mayor that this is a -
start in an effort to add to the safety of children and that children could walk
on the boulevard area where there is no sidewalk.

Mr. , Rosland presented total estimated 'cost of the improvement at $270,225.61,
$66,284.70 of which is proposed to be paid by abutting property owners at an

improvement.
too,close to the street, that there would be an eight foot wall in front of one
house and that approximately twenty-five trees would be lost.
to a meeting which Mr. Obermeyer attended with residents in the area,
recalled that this improvement had been considered by Council about seven years
ago and that it had been abandoned at that time, but that it had been thought
that this might be an appropriate time to reconsider the proposal with the
improvement of T.H. 100 and Benton Avenue,
.merit and expressing concern about the environmental impact on the neighborhood
were Messrs. Wm. E. Daley, 5824 Hansen Road, Jay R. Addy, 5801 Hanson Road, William
Heffern, 5725 Hanson Road, Grant North, 5804 Hanson Road, James Peterson, 5714
Hanson Road, Jerry T,. Flora, 5805 Hanson Road and an unidentified gentleman. An
unidentified lady and Mrs. R. W. Palacek, 5625 Hansen Road, spoke in favor of the
improvement, expressing concern for safety of children and pedestrians. Council
also expressed concern for the safety factor and for unnecessary expense for pro-
perty owners. Following considerable discussion, Councilman Shawls motion to
abandon the improvement and to instruct the Engineer to investigate the feasibility
of constructing a sidewalk along Garden Park on City property was seconded by
Councilman Courtney and carried. Mrs. Janis Zvirbulis, 5515 Hansen Road said that
it would be dangerous to install the sidewalk on the East side of the road but that
she would approve of one on the West side.

Ridgeview Drive (both sides) from W. 66th Street to Valley Lane; Valley Lane

I
and at the hearing held at the time and place specified in said notice, the Council

of the pertinent facts does hereby determine to proceed with the construction of
said improvement only on the East side of Valley View Road from W. 66th Street
to Valley Lane and on the South side of Valley Lane"along the park property ending
._ 10 feet West of the West line of Lot 1, Block 4, Edina Valley Estates 2nd Addition,

acquisition of necessary easements and rights for construction and maintenance of
such improvement; that said improvement is hereby designated and shall be referred
to in all subsequent proceedings as SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENT NO. S-17 and that the

Motion for adoption of the resolution was seconded by Councilman Shaw and on roll-
call there were five ayes and no nays and the resolution was adopted.
ORDINANCE NO. 811-A71 GRANTED FIRST READING. Affidavits of Notice were presented
by Clerk, approved as to form and ordered placed on file. Mr. Luce presented the
request of Home Federal Savings & Loan Association for a zoning change from C-4
Automotive Commercial District to C-2 Community Commercial District for Lot 3,
Block 1, Edenmoor Addition (5241 Eden Avenue). He clarified that this property is
the site of the old Gulf Oil station located on the corner of Eden Avenue and
Eden Circle near Vernon Avenue which has been. vacant for approximately two years.
Mr. Luce said that the only significant modification will be the addition of
several parking stalls and a drive-up teller in front of.the building but that
minor variances must also be achieved because there is an existing setback viola-
tion and not because the proponents wish to overuse the site by building too many
squqre feet. Mr, Robert Barth, attorney for Home Federal Savings & Loan, presented
a colored rendering for the proposed facility and agreed to'comply with all ordin-
ance requirements. Mr. Luce told Mr. James Peterson of Hansen Road that his sug-
gestion of making the entrance one-way from the North side of the building would
create congestion in the area.
Courtney offered the following ordinance for First Reading:

now has a letter from the County agreeing that the City will build the bicycle
path in connection with the construction of the County Road 18/Valley View Road
Interchange and that the County will participate by paying 50% of the cost. He
pointed out, however, that a portion of the bilce path is proposed to be located
on property owned by Nr. Cardarelle. He clarified that the County does not
own the additional land needed by the City. Mr. Donald Spielmann, Hennepin
Count-y Design Engineer, advised that they only need a slope easement from Mr.
Cardarelle, inasnuch as they are not taking any of his land. The question was
raised as to whether or not the slope easement would extend far enough so that.
the bicycle path could be constructed as planned.
the City might get the necessary land if Mr. Cardarelle could plat his property
and make the 5% parkland dedication required. Mr. Luce pointgd out that the *
City had applied for Federal Aid Urban Funds for the bicycle paths.
the City had assumed that there would be no local cost for land acquisition. In
response to a question of Councilman Shaw, County officials said that County
Road 18 will hopefully be finished from Interstate 494 to its present terminous
by 1981. Following considerable discussion, Councilman Richards' motion was
seconded by Councilman Courtney and carried that the matter be continued to the
first week in April so that it can be studied further.
