CROSSROADS DEVELOPMENT REQUEST FOR PJXD-3 ZONING CONTINUED TO MARCH 3, 1980.
Affidavits of Notice were presented by Clerk, approved as to form and ordered
placed on file. Mr. Hughes recalled that the petition of Crossroads Development
for a zoning change from !A-1 Residential District to PRD-3 Planned Residential
District for the construction of moderate and low income housing for property
located generally South of W. 70th Street, West of Cahill Road and Southeast of
Cahill Elementary School had been continued from January 21, 1930, so that the
Council would have an opportunity to study and analyze the Housing Cminittee
roads Development had submitted a soil analysis which had been reviewed by the
staff. Mr. flyatt showed drawings of the proposed town houses, advising that many
units will be tucked into the hill to the north and will not be seen from the
single family district to the West.
have a lower profile than the Braemar Oaks apartmentsandadvised that the build-
ings would be 300 keet from the adjacent R-1 single family district. Mr. Hyatt .
said that the Minutes of January 21, 1980, should have stated that preliminary
approval had been granted in 1976 for PRD-3 zoning for 64 (rather than 60) units
for the subject property.
that it is proposed to construct 51 garages and 89 open parking stalls, so that
there will be 2.2 parking spaces per dwelling unit.
of the Section 8 Program, and advised that income limits range from approximately
$12,000 for a one person household to up EO $19,000 for a six person household.
He advised that a household with an income of $10,000 would pay $208 per month for
rent. In response to Mr. Hyatt's statement that the only government involvement
is in insuring the financing, providing permanent loan takeout and providing the
necessary rental assistance, Councilwoman Schmidt pointed out that the City would
also be involved in writing down the land cost and that this would be a very
expensive project.
unit each year in property taxes. and that. those taxes exceed a number of market
rate developments in the City. - He said that , through its Comunity Development
Funds, Edina gave Yorkdale Townhomes over $4,000 per dwelling unit and that Cross-
roads Development Corporation would be requesting $165,000 total.
pointed out that Yorkdale TownhGmes were assisted by tax increment financing and
that his development would be paid entirely from federal sources.
that Edina has fallen short of what other municipalities have done in this type of
housing, even though the City has requested the funds for assistance for devel-
opment of this sort of housing and has told the federal government that Edina
intends to construct 170 wits for assistance housing.
of Councilman Richards as to what taxes would be paid if the property were to be
developed as market rate housing, Mr. Bill Brussman of Northern Mortgage said
that this figure is difficult to determine because neither Yorkdale Townhomes ot
the Durham Apartments have yet been assessed, but that he would expect to pay
approximately half of the taxes that a simiTar market rate apartment would pay.
In response to a question of Councilman Bredesen, Mr. Hughes said that the City
would spend its Community Development Funds in other areas if they were not used
for the development under consideration. In response to questions of Mrs. Bar-
bara KcGlathery , 5 105 Duggan Plaza, Mr. Hughes explained Tax Increment Financing
and Mr. Rosland explained that the Richfield School District receives school tax
money for Yorkdale Townhomes, rather than the Edina School District. Mrs. Donna
Scudder of the Edina Housing Committee was told by Mr. Hughes that the City has
budgeted its Community Development Block Grant Funds of approximately $250,000
per year for a variety of projects including public improvements in the Morning-
side Area, hocsing rehabilitation loans and grants , park improvements , handicapped
access programs and for land for low and moderate income housing.
explained that the City is not bound to fund aily particular project bgt that the
funds should probably be spent within two years. He added that no nore than 20%
of the total funds can be rebudgeted. Mr. Hughes explained that the Hetropolitan

homes at 5:30 and 6:30 a.m. and at 1O:OO and 11:30 p,m. on four different days
Lanham Lane, and President of the Lewis ParL Neighborhood Association, Mr. Bruss-
during February, only 47.2% of garages were occupied and added that there were
between .98 and 1.06 cars per unit parked on the property, both in and out of
garages.
on, there was one car per dwelling unit,and a 60% garage usage during the survey.
Mr. Hyatt said that even in his developments that were convenient to shopping
centers and on bus lines, almost 100% of the units owned cars, and that in areas
that were not as convenient to shopping centers and bus lines, there was a ratio
of 1.5 cars to each dwelling unit.
tioning units would be installed in the walls of the buildings if residents
wished to purchase the units and that, if requested by the Council, they would
provide garbage disposals for each unit.
that real estate taxes should be $2,160 per unit, Mr. Hyatt said that the Edina
Assessor uses a cost approach on rental housing and not a formula related to
income.
Finance Agency dated May 25, 1979, in which financing was denied, based on
"particular emphasis on the physical characteristics of the site and the expen-
sive site development costs projected" and also because "the proposed number of
units and density exceed current program parameters". Mr. Hyatt said that he
disagreed with statements made in that letter and that he still believes that
financing will be available from that Ageacy. lls. Rosemary Utne, 4529 Laguna
Drive, said that she is a former St. .Louis Park Council-membeZ: and .that she
would encourage approval of the project. Also speaking in favor of. the project
was'an unidentified lady who lives at 53rd and AbbottAve. in Mimeapolis who said
that she works in Edina. Nrs. Rachelle James, 7109 Lanham Lane, expressed con-
cern that property values in the area would depreciate and also wondered about
what would happen if the property should be sold in five or ten years. She was
advised by )Mr. Hyatt that they are obligated to retain ownership for a minimum
of 20 years and that they will have so many applicants for the units that they-
will be able to select the tenants very carefully. Mr. Jerry Kimer, resident .
Manager for Crossroads Development said that visits are made to the homes of each
aDplicant before they are approved as a tenant.
lives on Lanham Lans said that he woulci like to see long-range plans for the
development of the rest of the area. Mr. Hughes referred to a draft of the
Housing Plan which will be submitted to the Netropolitan Council for approval
later this spring. Nr. Edward Haeg, 5524 W. 70th Street, suggested that the
property in question should be-developed in such a way as to attract families with
children so as to increase Edina's school population. Mr. Larry Youngblood,
7205 Lanham Lane, said that with increasing costs of energy, it will be more dif-
ficult each year for people to own cars, that the location has no nearby shopping
center or good transportation and is not close to anything that is convenient to .-
that while the development may be good for Mr. Hyatt, it will not be an asset to
the community. Mr. Hyatt presented a map which he had prepared indicating other
potential housing sites and made comments on those sites as follows: 1) The Ked-
berg property on N. 76th and France Ave- (which would require extensive site work
and which HUD has indicated that it would not approve; . 2) Other sites on Cahill
Road (which are further away from transportation than the site in question); 3)
Between Arctic !Jay and the Crosstown Highway (which would not meet environmental
criteria); 4) North of the Edina West Condominiums (which site is too large, not'
near transportation or super markets) ; 5) Three sites in Northwcst Edina adjacent
to County Road 18 (which are not near public transportation or super markets); 6)
The Northeast comer of Edina on France Ave. adjacent to the Minneapolis Water
Department Building (which would be difficult to purchase from Minneapolis) ;
7) Three lots on Halifax Ave. across from Lunds (which site would be too small);
8) 'Vernon Ave. across from Hansen Road (which would require a very substantial
amount of fill and would require residents to walk on the bike path to and- from
the Grandview Shopping Area.) He recalled that the site in question is near the
Cahill Shopping Cezlter, near a day care center and public schools, has access to
parks and commercial and industrial areas.
man ftichards, hfr. Xyatt said that, in his opinion, 64 units of low and moderate
incorrie housing is the most that could be constructed in the entire City and that
it would be unrealistic to think that more units could be constructed.

referred to the fact thnt the City has been working for some time 'in trying to
respond to thesk cbhcerns as 'is evidenced by the, fact that the Housing .Commit tee
has worked to develop general and specific policy recommendations whid:h the
Council is trying to actdress at this time. He expressed concern about insiiiu-
ations that the people who would be renting the units are "different" from other
people, saying that he envisioned that the units would be rented by younger
people and by older people who have lived in Edina for many years and who are
looking for less expensive surroundings than their present homes. He referred
also to the fact that the moratorium on low and moderate income housing had been
lifted for the purpose of considering this proposal because Crosstown Development
had already submitted its application for the zoning change. He explained that
the Council must face the question of this particular project and how it will
fit in with the City's ultimate plan. The Mayor explained that the City is now
in the process of preparing its Mandatory Plan to submit to the Metropolitan
Council for its recommendations. He said that he would prefer to have the Man-
datory Plan finally adopted or understood before the Council actually addresses
this particular issue. The Mayor also expressed his concern about the lack of --:
availability of facilities that are necessarily needed and about the fact that the
Council has not seen any of the economic information which should be studied.
Councilman Richards said that Edina has never been afraid of different concepts
but has always tried to do what is best for all of the people. He suggested that
an alternative might be to subsidize individual housing rather than building one
large project. As suggested by Councilman Courtney, Councilman Richards" motion
was seconded by Councilwoman Schmidt that the staff be instructed to draw find-
ings and reasons to assist the Council in making its decision at the..Council
Meeting which will be held on March 3, 1980.

111 from R-1 Residential District to PRD-3 Planned Residential District, advising
that the subject property is bordered on the South by W. 78th Street and on the
West by Shaughnessy Road and that it represents the third and final phase of
the residential development of the Shuster property by Laukka and Associates.
recalled that Dewey Hill Addition and Dewey Hill Second Addition had been devel-
oped with single family lots and that, at the time Dewey Hill Second Addition
was approved, the Council agreed that Mr. Laukka's proposal to construct a condo-
minium development of 125-150 units for the Southerly extreme of the property
would be a proper land use for the site, although they did not approve specific
plans. Mr. Hughes explained that the proponents have submitted preliminary
plans for a 123 unit condominium development €or this 13.3 acre site, with a pro-
posed density of 9.2 units per acre but that they submit that this project
represents the third phase of an overall plan for the 58 acre Schuster property
and, therefore, an overall density of 3.4 mits per acre has been achieved.
Hughes advised that the property is characterized by moderately steep slopes on
the East and West portions of the site and that a large wooded swamp comprises
mst of the central portion of the property. It is proposed to construct <he
five condominium buildings in a North-South direction along the upland areas
on the Easterly and Westerly portions of the site and to excavate and develop
the central portion as a pond. Mr. Hughes explained that .the building would
be three stories in height as viewed from the East and West, with 187 park-
ing stalls to be constructed under the building and that the building would be
four stories as viewed from the central portion of the site.
Ldvised that the Comnunity Development and Planning Commission had recommended
denial, rather than continuing the matter to its next meeting, because the pro-
ponent had requested the denial so that the request could be heard at this time
by the Council in order that the site work could be done during the cold weather.
Mr. Lauklca iritroduced Messrs. Peter Jarvis of Bather Ringrose & Wolsfeld and
David Bennett, the project architect. Mr. Jarvis reviewed the concept of the
development, and said that the minutes of the Community Development zind Plan-
ning Commission reflect that the Commission had viewed the overall pian at the
time Dewey Hill 2nd Addition had been platted and had given concept approval
at that time.

which will be used in the project and showed the effect of the project in terms
of Solar access cn adjacent properties. Mr. Mark Fuller, attorney representing

the ground might cause structural damage to Glasgow Drive properties and that
children in the neighborhood might be attracted to the dangerous conditions dur-
ing construction of the project. He also questioned the fact that no traffic
report had been made 2nd pointed out that consideration should be given to addi-
tional traffic which result from the extension of Delaney Blvd. He expressed
further concern about blind intersections on W. 78th Street. Mr. Fuller said
that construction of a building 600 feet long and 43 feet high would adversely
affect property values and destroy the natural amenities in the area; He made
reference also to a letter from the Department of Natural Resources which recom-
mended against puttingin the "reflective pond". Mr. Fuller also objected to the
fact that all of the Dewey Hill developments had not been proposed as a single
Planned Residential District development, and said that since plans had been
changed, the-project should be referred back to the Camunity Development and
Planning Commission. Nr. Brian Anderson, representing Mr. Earl Wilson, reiter-
ated comments made by Nr. Fuller and said that he had not received notice of'the
hearing. Mr. Robert Clark, 7701 Glascow Drive, objected that the proposed build-
ings would prevent his property from getting any direct sunlight. Mrs. Clark and
Mrs. Dominic Sciola, 7705 Glasgow Drive, presented a scale model which they had
made showing the impact that the buildings would have on the area. Also express-
ing objections to the proposal were Mrs. Lois Younger, 7717 Glasgow Drive, Eks.
Jessie Kahnke, 7709 Glasgow Drive and Mrs. Glocke, 7729 Glasgow Drive, as well
as Messrs. Earl Micka, Thomas Lampert, 7724 Glasgow Drive, and Dominic Sciola.
In response to concerns expressed about the possibility of flooding, Mr, Hoff-
man explained that the overflow from the pond will go to the North and into the
Edina/Bloomington drainage system. The object ion was also heard that the grade
of the parking lot of the project under discussion would be higher than the
kitthe,rr.windo~ of CCZ 5case md %&her tka tke back yard of another house on
the $Jest end- of Glasgow Drive.
these objections would arise at the time he had platted his first two subdivi-
sions of the Schuster property and that was why he had made his plans very clear
to the Community Development and Planning Commission and to the Council at that
time. He said that, if the Council would approve a permit to develop the pond-
i-ng area during the cold weather, he would do the grading at his own risk and
bring his project back to the Community Ikvelopment and Planning Conmission and
to the Council for approval at a later date. Following considerable discussion,
Councilman PZchards moved that the Council determine that the application and
documents filed for the rezoning to Planned Residential District suffice as an
application under Ordinance 821 and that such application can now be acted upon
by the Council, and further granting a permit to dig and maintain an open pit and
to impound waters in accordance with grading plans on file in the Engineering
Department and with regulations of the Nine Mile Creek Watershed District and as
provided in Ordinance No. 821. Motion was seconded by Councilwoman Schmidt.

EDINA INTERCHANGE CENTER 8TH ADDITION GRANTED PRELIMINARY APPROVAL. Affida-
vits of Notice were presented by Clerk, approved as to form and ordered placed
on file. Mr. Hughes presented Edina Interchange Center 8th Addition for pre-
liminary plat approval, advising that this plat is located West of Ohms Lane
and North of W. 73rd St. and that the plat conforms to zoning and floodplain
requirements. He recalled that, at the time Edina Interchange Center 4th
Addition was platted in 1977, the Council had questioned whether right-of-way
should be dedicated to allow the extension of Ohms Lane to serve the Northern
States Power property located to the Northwest of the subject property.
accordance with Council action at that time, the proposed plat has designated
a 60 foot wide utility and driveway easement to allow access from Ohms Lane .
to the Northern States Power property, in case such a roadway is approved at
a later date and the proponents have indicated a willingness to either dedi-
cate this area as a public easement or grant a private easement to Northern
States Power for driveway purposes. As recommended by the Community Develop-
ment an,d Planning Commission, Councilman Richards offered the following reso-

that f€nal zoning be contingent on final plat approval. Hr. Hughes advised
