a question of a gcntlerria living at 5112 Westridge Blvd., Mr. Hughes advised
that the proposed plans net all requirements of City Ordinances and with the
amendment to the Western Edina Pian and that the site is capable of supporting
six dwelling units. Mr. Hughes advised Mr. J. A. Cariin, 6223 Westridge Blvd.,
that under the density nile which allows 5.75 units for the 1.86 acre site, the
CoGncil mst use its discretion in rounding off the number of uriits ?emitted.
In response to Mr. Catliiz's contention that all-but the last reason for denial
listed in the Findings, Eecisions and Reasons were still in effect, Mr. Hughes
assured the Council that the proposal does conform to the Western Edina Compre-
hensive Plan adopted in 1971 which antie-ipated low density attached housing for
the site. He recalled that the closest development of this type would be found
in Nine Mile Village (located West of the new Colonial Church) with other double
bungalows being located adjacent tb?e Crosstown Highway West of France Ave.
Mr. lfarion Van Someren, 6317 Valley View Road, said that his house is located be-
tween the subject property and the similar property to the West and wged that
the rezoning be denied. Also speaking in opposition to any multiple zoning were

ing was denied some time ago-for property located at 6324 Valley View Roaci.
In response to a question of the'Mayor, Mr. Hughes said that he could not pre-
dict whet5er the existing trees or the proposed buildings would serve as the best
sound barrier. Mayor Van Yalkenburg spoke of his concern, not only about the
property in question, but about the property immediately to the West of Mr. Vm
Soneren's home, because he believed that a precedent would be sec for a similar
rezoning for that property. He said that the City's guides for altering density
because of proximity to streets, etc., led him to believe that the proposed
density is too great and that residents in the area have relied on the fact that
the area was to be developed into something comparable to single farily housing.
He clarified that the ultimace zoning may be R-2 development and that the deterdn-
ing factors nust be traffic volumes and the type of buiiding to be constructzd.
E2 z2dcd tkt he :FLsk.s that the proposal calls for "t~o ZGC~ b~ild2zg for the
property."

mitted by 'ihe Planning staff and by the Mayor. He stated that he concurred with
the Mayor's statements and added tht--the single family lots in the neighbcrhood
average 25,000 square feet, Councilman Richards said that he did not share the
neighbors' viewpoint that the development must be single fainily detached housiDg
znd that he believed that the tomhouse type of residential setting makes sense
for the site. Councilman Courtney seconded Councilnan =chards motion, scating
that he agreed with the Mayor and Councilman Richards and complimented Xr. Berg
for being a repiitable builder. CGuncilman Courtney also expressed concern for
the loss of tress if single family dwellings should be constructed on tha site.

of Notice were presented by Clerk, approved as to form aEd ordered placed on 4
file. Mr. Eughes presented One Corporate Center, Phase I11 for preliminary and
Ektro Blvd., Eas'l of Ohms Lane and W. 73rd Street. Mr. Hughes advised thaz the
plat has been presented because outlots are unbuildable until they are platted
into lots and blocks and that the proponents are requesting a one lot subdivi-
sfon in order to utilize the 0-2 zoning and construct office building on the
site which building would be very similar to One Corporate Center which is loc~
ated South of the scbject property. Mr, Hughes advised that the proponent is
proposing to dedicate a 2.5 acre tract of land along Nine Mile Creek, the dedi-
cation of whkh would complete a green strip along Nine Mile Creek through the
industrial area.
unuawl, in that the land proposed for the dedication is located outside of the
boundaries of the proposed subdivision, but that both properties are omed by
the saiae person. Mr. Hughes added that, in accordance with past policy, the
proponent is requesting that all floodplain encroachment rights derived from the
land dedicated tc the City stiould accrue to the proposed subdivision and
explained that the transfer of floodplain encroachment rights from the dedicated
land was a condition of the Watershed District's approval of this development so
as to bring it into conformance with the rules and regulations of the District.
Mr. Hughes advised that the staff and Commmity Development and PlanniDg Connnis-
sion have recommended approval of the proposed subdivision with the following
conditions:
Watershed District;
a3uttiog Nine Mile Creek;
posed- for dsd5cation.
uzgai that both preliminary and final plat approval be granted at this meeting
so that construction of the building could begin before cold weather sets in.

explained that it is difficult to determine the value of undeveloped land in
the area at Chis time because of the flood plain.
Mr. Rym, the Mayor explained that it will be necessary for the Coucil to 'how.
the value of the lad ROW being considered for dedication as well as Hr. Hughes'
analysis of the potential value of tile remaking land. Mr. Ericlison clarified
that the CityTs iand dedication ordinance states "a reasonable aaount" must 5e
dedicated and that this appears to be rsasonable in the sense that there is a
creek aEd a flocdplafn. He told Mr, Xyan that he had not been under the impres-
sioa that Che dedication proposed to be made in connection with the plat under.
discmsion tlas beiilg given as a credit for all development ?.n that area and that
developmsnts. He referred to the fact that the City dedication ordbance
der'ines "reasonableness" as based upon value which is determined at the zime of
che fhal plzt and that, since the property North or' the road mzy not be platted
for soineysarq it is difficult to arrivs ~t i? value at this tims.
advised the proponents that it would not be possible to accept the proposed
dedfcation only for the balance of the unplatted land which lies South and Vest
om' Eetro Blvd. until all of the property values are known. Councilm2n Richards
pornted ozlk thae each new development would be dealt with on its own merits.

called Corncil's attention to the petition for STOP signs-. on Brookview live;. rA
at i?: 55zh Street, advising that warrants used to make a determination of the
necessity of this traffic control had not ,indicated that such a need existed.(.. He
.clarified that neither vehicle speed or volune indicated a need for the requested
signs. Mr;: Daniel l?. Prins, 5436 Brookview Ave., referred to his letter to the
Comcil zeqitesting installation. of the ST5P signs and urged that the Council. + .reconsider the Traffic Safety Committee's recomniendation for denial of the c -dd
request, kiting the safety of children as the primary concern. Speaking in $1
oppositioa to the request was Mr. Patrick Tobin, 5501 Brookview Ave., who sup
gested chat children should not be allowed to play in the street and that, while
'ne also sharesa concern for the children', he thought that the fact that many xesi-
dests park t1ieir:cars on the-street was z mare realistic danger for the safety of

ORDINANCE NOS: 1405 AND 103041 CONTINUED TO NOVEMBER 5, 1979. Mr. Rosland called
Council's attention to Ordinance No. 1405, covering parking of recreactional
vehicles and Ordinance No. 1.030-A1, amending the nuisance ordinance relative to
parking of commercial vehicles. He explained that Ordinance No. 1031-A1 axends
the existing ordinance so that more than one passenger car can be parked i-n a
driveway between the house and the street, and also
weight from 7,000 pounds to 9,000 pounds. The proposed ordinance also allows com-
mercial vehicles to be parked inside garages. He pointed out that ar2as of con- .
cern that are not addressed in 0.rdinance Na. 4405 -are as follows : I .
There is no procedure at the present tine by which any type of variance can
be given, thus precluding people who cannot get to their side and back yards;
klotocycles and rraii bikes are presently not considered as recrearional
vehicles ;
There is no restriction on ownership, thereby permitting a resident to
store a frierid's vehicle;

Mr.
ational vehicles would be perinttted under the proposed ordinances.
explained that vehicles could be parked either on the grass or on a hard surface
area in the R-1 and R-2 Residential Districts, but that they may onP3 be parked
on an established parking zrea in the multiple residential districts.
fied lady in the aQdience questioned how people could be prevented from parking
on their o-m property. Mr. and Mrs. Goldberg, 6017 Killarney Lsne, advised that
they have no way to get their trailer into their back yard and presented a copy of
the City of Echfield's recreational ordinance which, they said, is nure.ledent
thaa the ordinace propoeed by Edina. Mr. John Ross, 69 Woodland Circle, said
that people should be allowed to park their recreational vehicles in their. drive-
,ways to allow time for packing. lfr. Robert J. Carlson, 6020 Drew Ave., who said
that he uses his rruck for business, was told by Mr. Hughes that if his garage is
back from his house he should be able to park in his driveway.
Schultz, 6112 Eansen Road, and Mr. M. E: Laursen, 5721 Ewing Av~., urged the
Council tc allow parking their recreational vehlcfes in their driveways, as did
an unidentified lady who lives at 5721 Ewing Ave. who said that they have a
trailer and s Tickup truck thst they would like to park in their driveway. Mr.
John Jefferson, 4016 Kipling Ave., said that he stores his trailer in Minneapolis
and that he feels that recreational vehicles should be the responsibility of the
owner.
vehicles are better looking tha many cars .and should not be discriminated against.
Halifax Lane, objecting to the parking of mctor homes and recreational equipment
is not making any particular recoxiiendation at this tire and that the purpose of
this discussion is to Learn the views of 'residents for guidelines for Council
action. Councilman Bredesen said that he would like to see the recreational

5603 Shemood Road, objected to parking vehicles between houses because of the
fact that they often have full gas tanks and are a fire hazard.
McClelland of the Community Development an6 Planning Commission suggested that
owners of snowmobiles would want to park 'their vehicles in their driveways dur-
ing the winter. As recommended by the Mayor, Councilman Richards' notion was
seconded by Couicilman Courtney, referring the matter to the City Xanager for
re-drafting and continuing discussion on the ordinances until November 5, 1979.
