IV. COMMUNITY COMMENT
The Council shared how after consideration, it would review the site selection for the new water
treatment plant (WTP). The Council indicated it wanted the site selection to be a good, public process as
its construction could have an impact on surrounding neighborhoods.
Rhonda Bland, 7000 Kerry Road, thanked the Council for being sensitive and listening to the neighbor's
concerns regarding the WTP location. She presented a 70-signature petition that opposed the current
location and noted signatures were included from outside the neighborhood which showed the level of
concern and that it was not just a neighborhood issue. Ms. Bland said they looked forward to the
discussion process and suggested the upcoming facility design meeting on February 27 be canceled at this
time.
The Council said the City would address next steps that reviewed potential alternate locations and
engaged the broader community but noted the need for good water was important.
Roberta Castellano, 4854 France Avenue South, spoke about the 50th and France Small Area Plan (SAP),
potential for eminent domain of homes in the White Oaks neighborhood, and asked the Council to review
the status and take action. Community Development Director Teague explained how early illustrations
had potential pedestrian connections but those connections had been removed from the current draft and
the City had no intention of condemning homes. He said the updated SAP draft would be posted and
made public soon.
The Council recognized students in attendance at the meeting.
IV.A. CITY MANAGER'S RESPONSE TO COMMUNITY COMMENTS
City Manager Neal responded to past Community Comments.
The Council referred to the recent informational meeting with the SAP working group and neighborhood,
which was a positive meeting, and there would be more public comment opportunities in the future.

VII. PUBLIC HEARINGS HELD — Affidavits of Notice presented and ordered placed on file.
VII.A. RESOLUTION NO. 2019-13 APPROVING APPLICATION FOR 2019 URBAN HENNEPIN
COUNTY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM FUNDS
AND AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF SUBGRANTEE AGREEMENT — ADOPTED
Affordable Housing Development Manager Hawkinson explained the CDBG Program was a federal
entitlement program administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
and managed by Hennepin County to oversee the distribution of funds to cities. The funds were used for
improvements of housing and providing a suitable living environment for persons with low and moderate
incomes. Edina's estimated 2019 CDBG budget allotment was $151,000, a 7.9% increase from 2018 due
to an identified large increase in overcrowding in the City. When HUD establishes the 2019 CDBG budget
later this spring, Edina would be notified of any changes to its allotment. Staff reviewed proposals for the
expenditure of 2019 Community Development funds that included Homes Within Reach of $93,350 and
rehabilitation of private property of $35,000.
The Council asked about other applicants for these dollars and how many households were assisted last
year. Ms. Hawkinson replied four households were assisted with one on the waiting list and noted this
was an unusual year as funds were not accessed for a long time so instead of losing funding, it was placed
in WHALT.
Mayor Hovland opened the public hearing at 7:32 p.m.
Public Testimony

Grant (CDBG) Program Funds and authorizing execution of Subrecipient Agreement with
Urban Hennepin County and any third -party agreements. Member Brindle seconded the motion.

Ayes: Anderson, Brindle, Fischer, Staunton, Hovland
Motion carried.
VII.B. RESOLUTION NO. 2019-17 AND ORDINANCE 2019-03: REVISION OF PUD-17 FOR
PENTAGON PARK SOUTH (4815 AND 4901 77TH STREET AND 7710 COMPUTER
AVENUE — ADOPTED
Mr. Teague presented the request of the Solomon Real Estate Group for a Zoning Ordinance Amendment
to revise their approved development plans for Pentagon Park South (4815 & 4901 77th Street and 7710
Computer Avenue.) The original approved plans included two retail/restaurant buildings totaling 11,800
square feet; a four-story 193-room hotel; four-story 153-room hotel with a parking ramp below it; 20,000
s.f. office building with a parking ramp below it; retail/office building 19,000 square feet; and 150,000-
210,000 s.f. office building. He reviewed the proposed revisions but noted the uses proposed were the
same as the original proposal. The proposed parking met City Code for Phase I and Phase 2 buildout of
the office building would require an amendment to the PUD to review the proposed site plan and parking
requirements. Because this project was rezoned to PUD, the revision of the overall development plan
requires a Zoning Ordinance Amendment to the original PUD.
The Council asked questions regarding parking easements and how much ramp was available for public
parking, bike parking, and greenspace. Mr. Teague said the project would make property available for
Page 3
Minutes/Edina City Council/February 20. 20I9
users of the park but the developer was providing enough parking for all uses in Phase I and would not
need all parking stalls as a result of the variance and standard code requirement requires bike racks.
The Council spoke about the median on Viking Boulevard, traffic flow, and the need for a parking variance.
City Engineer Millner said staff had the same concerns and informed the applicant that the City would still
require a change on Phase II to leave portions as green space and that the turn lane was required with
either concept. Mr. Teague explained how WSB Associates believed Phase II did not have sufficient
parking and how this would be reviewed again once the developer was ready to construct the office space
as an additional deck to the parking ramp could be required.
Jay Scott, Solomon Real Estate Group, reviewed changes to the plan that included consolidated parking
ramp, snow removal plan, water walk hotel with additional green space and trail system, and 4 to 5 stories
on co -branded hotel, but rest of plan remained the same. He noted improvements to infrastructure, loss
of center aisle for turning movements, trying to protect plaza, and make it inviting. The closing will make a
connection between future Phase II and make it a more enticing location for employers,
The Council spoke about pushing the restaurants to the east and west to provide more greenspace in the
boulevard. Mr. Scott said there was not enough room on the site for additional greenspace and explained
how expansion of the parking ramp was tied to the office building and their hope to do some shared
parking between the office space and hotels, but it would include a proper foundation that would allow an
additional parking ramp level if needed in the future.
Dean Parks, Westwood Professional Services, answered questions regarding sidewalk widths and spoke
about the sidewalk on the north side of ramp and their request to waive two conditions for 6-ft sidewalks
rather than 8-ft sidewalks.
Bill Whitrock, RSP Architects, reviewed project architecture and shared the parking structure plan with
two entrances off Viking Boulevard to the south. He explained how the north elevation enhanced the
open space and how all entrances opened to give a front door feel and create a backdrop for green space
activity. He stated the plan was to include seasonal pieces of art but not digital at this point. The south
side would focus on landscape design with a green screen and translucent panel to provide an obvious
entrance into the parking structure. He then reviewed signage, color packages, and the contemporary
materials that included corrugated metal and wood.
The Council commented how the five -story project appeared flat without a large variety of materials and
how the selected colors could fade over time. Mr. Whitrock described the materials of masonry with
Dryvit/stucco for the Hawkeye Hotel and how the variety of colors provided a break as well as multiple
planes.
The Council referred to the north parking garage elevation and noted the need for a facade to change the
look from a conventional -style ramp as it was a detriment to the development. Mr. Parks shared their plan
for more architectural detail and glass with a vertical element tower as the office phase was completed
that included screens by the railings and how more work would occur as Phase II was completed. He
shared the proposed schedule and plans for submittal of the increased ramp foundation, noting both hotel
contracts had been signed and their hope was to begin construction by the end of summer.
Attorney Knutson suggested including a condition for the parking ramp elements as Phase II evolved.
Mayor Hovland opened the public hearing at 8:36 p.m.
Public Testimony
No one appeared.
Member Brindle made a motion, seconded by Member Fischer, to close the public hearing.
Ayes: Brindle, Fischer, Staunton, Stewart, Hovland
Page 4
Minutes/Edina City Council/February 20, 2019
Motion carried.
The Council stressed the importance of the boulevard -style sidewalk on 77th Avenue and cautioned about
building too much parking if not needed. The Council also commented on ways to improve the look of
the ramp and inclusion of bike lockers. Mr. Millner noted the additional lanes were included for future
projects on the north side.
Member Anderson introduced and moved adoption of Resolution No. 2019-17 approving a
zoning ordinance amendment to revise PUD-17, Planned Unit Development — 17, including
final development plan for Phase I, and overall development plan for Solomon Real Estate
Group as amended and conditioned on:
1. Phase I shall be developed per the Final Plans submitted and date stamped December
14, 2018 and January 17, 2019, including the materials and materials board presented to
the Planning Commission.
2. The Final Landscape Plan must meet all minimum landscaping requirements per Chapter
36 of the Zoning Ordinance. A performance bond, letter -of -credit, or cash deposit must
be submitted for one and one-half times the cost amount for completing the required
landscaping, screening, or erosion control measures at the time of any building permit.
3. The Final Lighting Plan must meet all minimum requirements per Section 36-1260 of the
City Code.
4. Roof -top mechanical equipment shall be screened per Section 36-1459 of the City Code.
5. Submit a copy of the Nine Mile Creek Watershed District permit. The City may require
revisions to the approved plans to meet the district's requirements.
6. Compliance with all of the conditions outlined in the director of engineering's memo
dated January 24, 2019.
7. Compliance with the WSB Traffic & Parking Study recommendations including:
A. Addition of a northbound left turn lane, southbound striped left turn lane and
eastbound right turn lane at 77th Street and Commercial Access driveway.
B. Addition of a northbound dual left turn lane and eastbound right turn lane at 77th
Street and Computer Avenue.
8. All crosswalks shall be marked with "duraprint" type stamping, or whatever is the city
standard at the time of installation, to clearly identify the pedestrian crossings.
9. The minimum number of bicycle parking spaces required shall be five percent of the
automobile parking space requirement.
10. Compliance with the recommendation in the city's sustainability coordinator's memo
dated June 27, 2018.
11. Ninety percent (90%) of the parking stalls within the development shall be available to all
uses within the development.
12. The Phase 2 office site shall be landscaped per the proposed Phase I site plan and the
sidewalks constructed.
13. The number of parking stalls demonstrated for Phase 2 would not support the uses based
on the parking study done by WSB, therefore, additional parking stalls would likely be
required for Phase 2. The specific requirement for parking for Phase 2 will be considered
during the Final Development Plan review process.
14. Boulevard style sidewalks must be constructed on Computer and 77th, consistent with
the entire perimeter sidewalk in the development.
15. Architectural elements placed on north, east and west sides of parking ramp subject to
Council approval.
and to grant First and waive Second Reading of Ordinance No. 2019-03 an ordinance
amending the Zoning Ordinance to revise the PUD-17, Planned Unit Development — 17
zoning district.
Member Fischer seconded the motion.

VIII. REPORTS/RECOMMENDATIONS
VIII.A. REQUEST FOR FINANCIAL PARTICIPATION FOR 7200-7250 FRANCE AVENUE -
APPROVED
Economic Development Manager Neuendorf presented the request of the property owner and developer
of the commercial properties located at 7200 and 7250 France Avenue for $12 million in Tax Increment
Financing (TIF) to fill a budget gap in the proposed mixed -use project. Staff had completed a thorough
evaluation of the developer's request for TIF financing for the proposed project as well as the City's
financial and legal advisors at Ehlers Associates and Dorsey & Whitney and staff recommended a pledge of
up to $12 million secured by a TIF Note issued upon completion of both new buildings. He said staff
supported use of tax increment financing on this site due to the declining condition of two existing
buildings, existing storm water conditions, and the potentially unsafe structural problem in the parking
garage at the 7250 building. He said the project was designed to include several public realm
improvements that were consistent with the goals of the Greater Southdale District Plan such as a new
north -south shared street that provided a convenient alternative for drivers, pedestrians and bicyclists.
The Council asked questions regarding funding gap size, typical return on investment, claw back versus
rate of return, and details of final design of land use. Jason Aarsvold, Ehlers & Associates explained the
proposal was evaluated based on two metrics; return on cost then later on internal rate of return
Mr. Neuendorf said they hoped to get final site plan approvals by mid- to late -March conditioned upon the
re -imagining of 72nd Street.
The Council asked reasons why money should be spent here and not somewhere else in the City. Mr.
Neuendorf explained the challenge was that the money was not here today but -for the new and future
taxes so if the project did not move forward, the site would continue to produce meager taxes. Mr.
Aarsvold confirmed the City would not provide money upfront whatsoever and if at the end of the term
the note was not paid, there was no City obligation to pay the difference.
The Council expressed concern that the approved project no longer included the 10 townhomes and said
the townhomes were an important piece of this project as they provided transition between the
neighborhoods. Mr. Neuendorf said discussion was held on how the for -sale townhome units would be
delivered and how the updated term sheet now mandated townhomes be included plus two safety
measures: no TIF note would be issued until construction began and if the developer failed to complete all
10 units within five years, they would be penalized $500,000. He explained a public hearing would be held
on March 19 to continue the public input process but the developer needed to know now if the concept
even made sense.
The Council asked about improvements to 72nd Street that included a true living street with narrow lanes,
plantings, and trees, and why the concept was not extended farther past France and Lynmar Lane. The
Council also inquired about the second -floor plaza and ADA compliance as this needed to be a public
benefit. Sheldon Berg, DJR Architects, confirmed there would be accessibility to the upper plaza and easy
access provided via stairs and an elevator.
The Council cautioned against the purchase provision at the end of 25 years and asked about the clause
that reimbursed $4.9 million to continue affordability beyond Year 15. Mr. Neuendorf explained the
reason for the provision addressed Council concerns in future years and provided the City a first right of
refusal only and that the TIF note was for a maximum amount of $12 million.
The Council asked questions about using TIF outside the project area and the desire to create the most
durable, permanent, affordable housing as it was in the best interest of the community. Jay Lindgren,
Dorsey & Whitney, explained how this action would create a housing TIF district and while some money
could be pooled outside the district, other restrictions existed.
Page 6
Minutes/Edina City Council/February 20, 2019
The Council confirmed consultant fees were all covered by the developer and no additional surface
parking had been included since the original approval. The Council confirmed this project was better than
previously proposed projects and while not perfect, it provided a lot of public good on private property
such as addressing stormwater problems.
Michael Marguiles, developer, confirmed the gap of $10-12 million would be addressed in a development
agreement, the developer was constrained by the timelines, and the TIF note would not exist unless
deadlines were met.
The Council asked if it was appropriate to designate funds for 25 years to create 62 affordable housing
units. Affordable Housing Development Manager Hawkinson said staff recommended use of these funds to
create 62 units because if TIF was not used, the developer would not have access to traditional sources of
financing and the project would not occur.
The Council confirmed the two parking structures, one public, one private, then reviewed benefits such as
storm water, woonerf, affordable housing units, dedication and maintenance of a new public realm, 72nd
Street improvements, and others that easily totaled $12 million. The Council noted there was no risk for
the City as it was a pay-as-you-go project and the project would not happen otherwise.
Member Staunton made a motion, seconded by Member Fischer, to approve Term Sheet
and authorizing staff to engage legal and financial professionals to prepare a full
Redevelopment Agreement based on the approved Term Sheet.
Ayes: Anderson, Brindle, Fischer, Staunton, Hovland
Motion carried.
VIII.B. AMENDMENT TO REDEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH PENTAGON VILLAGE, LLC —
APPROVED
Mr. Neuendorf said the City and Edina Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) executed a Tax
Increment Financing (TIF) Redevelopment Agreement with Pentagon Village, LLC on October 16, 2018.
This TIF Agreement pertained to the complete redevelopment of the 12-acre site commonly referred to
as Pentagon South. Over the three months since the developer secured site plan approvals and the TIF
Agreement, they have promptly begun site work and full project design. This project included several
different developers, owners, and tenants and would be constructed in multiple phases. He stated the
developer was requesting changes to the site plan that reflected the needs of the users that could impact
the economic development goals embodied in the TIF Redevelopment Agreement. The economic impacts
of the proposed changes were summarized and included revised timing of phases, construction of a single
parking structure in stages, that the overall timing of the project remained the same and was approved by
the HRA on January 31, 2019 subject to the related Site Plan approval.
Member Fischer made a motion, seconded by Member Brindle, to approve Amendment No.
1 to the October 2018 Redevelopment Agreement with Pentagon Village, LLC.
Ayes: Anderson, Brindle, Fischer, Hovland
Nays: Staunton
Motion carried.
VIII.C. SKETCH PLAN FOR 7079 AMUNDSON AVENUE — REVIEWED
Mr. Teague shared the developer was requesting sketch plan review for Amundson Flats at 7079
Amundson Avenue to tear down the existing vacant dry cleaners building and construct a 4-story, 62-unit
affordable housing project that would contain underground and surface parking stalls. He said the
property was 1.2 acres in size and guided as Neighborhood Node, which had a height limit of 5 stories.
He said the applicant had revised their original plan to meet these requirements after approval of the 70th
and Cahill Small Area Plan and shared elements of the Planning Commission discussion regarding which
side the parking lot should be on and trail connections.
Page 7
Minutes/Edina City Council/February 20, 2019
Peter Worthington, MWF Properties, shared the firm's background and said their focus was affordable
workforce housing. He said the 62 units would be 60% AMI and a mix of I -, 2-, and 3-bedroom units with
amenities and shared their long-term commitment to provide affordable housing at this site for 40 years.
He described the sketch plan challenges that included a narrow site and how they reduced parking by 10
stalls and created a trail connection instead with urban streetscape within the guidelines of the SAP. Mr.
Worthington shared existing elevations for the project and materials that included cultured stone, cement
panels, rock -faced block, and a sized variety of lap siding. He explained their decision to not include
balconies because of costs and aesthetics over time and commented on unit mix.
The Council commented this was a nice project and stressed connectivity to the trail, increased
greenspace, and the creation of a living street that could include a stoop/step concept. The Council asked
about stormwater storage, a possible bike trail as the regional trail was a primary attraction, how
architectural elements would prove to be important, and stressed building facades especially towards
Amundson. The Council spoke about the good use for the site and asked about increasing parking stalls
beneath the building. Mr. Worthington shared how stormwater would be addressed through underground
vault storage and spoke about providing more benches and an arbor to soften interaction. He said they
would like to possibly develop a roof terrace and while it would not include solar, they would review
electric car charging stations and other sustainable elements.
The Council commented how this would be the first urban design of the 70th and Cahill SAP and stressed
the importance to do it right through creation of a street presence. The Council suggested moving the
building back a bit, review parking, and the possibility of utilizing the adjacent public parcel if needed to
accomplish the goal of access to the trail. The Council also suggested inclusion of a main floor patio and
stressed the importance of architecture and materials.
VIII.D. BOARD AND COMMISSION APPOINTMENTS — APPROVED
