EMERALD WOO3S ADDITION GRANTED PRELIMINARY PLAT APPROVAL. Affidavits of Notice were presented by Acting Clerk, approved.as to form and ordered placed on file. Mr. Hughes presented Emerald Woods Addition, being platted by Alvin Leonard, for preliminary plat approval generally located south of Foxmeadow Lane, North of Pine Grove Road and east of Blake Road. He advised that directly north of this property is parkland which was acquired by the City several years ago with proceeds front the 1955 park and open space bond issue referendum. The referendum at that time included possible acquisition of the northerly part of the subject property in order to provide an approximate 10-acre park. The subdivision now proposed was cons5dered by the Community Development and Planning Commission on several %%asions and it was also considered by the Park Board. The first concept to be explored provided that the easterly half of the property presently owned by the City would be exchanged for the westerly portion of the proponent's property-to provide lands for a park. and had recommended its approval. sion for one month to receive additional information from the Park Board. Follow-. ing the Commission meeting, the Park Board again considered the land exchange at the request of abutting property owners. The Park Board then reversed its decision and recommended that the land not be exchanged, and the present parkland owned by the City would remain intact. Mr. Hughes reiterated that the land exchange concept has been fostered solely by staff, not the proponent. The Planning Commission thereupon considered a new proposed subdivision plan presented by the proponent. This plan illustrates a nine lot subdivision which would be served by way of a cul-de-sac from West Highwood Drive.

Hughes announced that Mr. Peter Jarvis, representing the proponent, was present. In response to question of Lucille Benson, 5301 W. Highwood Drive, Mf.

Kr. Hughes advised that the Planning Commission recommended approval conditioned on: 1) subdivision dedication, 2) executed developer's agreement, 3) a 100-foot wide conservation - restriction abutking the pond, 4) a sanitary sewer easement to Danens Drive must be secured, and 5) Lot 1 and all other lots in the plan must be connected to sanitary * sewer. Dick Krier of Westwood Planning and Engineering Company, representing the proponent, stated that in planning this proposed subdivision they had considered a number of issues and concerns including lot size in relation to surrounding land, traffic volume and site distances from the road and the driveway entrances to Lobi1 and 2, storm water run-off, and the preservation of existing trees and grad+ng as it affects the environment. regarding storm water run-off, Mr. Krier explained that more work studies have been done for this subdivision than they would normally do. He advised that run-off during construction of the road would be brought down to the cul-de-sac into a , catch basin and pipe to the pond.

Merchant, 6613 Nagmi Drive and Francis W. Lang, 6616 Kenney Place, also voiced concern about storm water run-off from this and future development in the area as it would affect their low lying homes. Ronald A. Zamansky, 5041 West 66th Street, urged that consideration be given to other future development potential in the immediate area and the effect such development would have on storm water run-off and traffic safety. He asked if the Department of Natural Resources had reviewed the subdi.vision plans inasmuch as the pond area has been designated by the DNR as a wetland. Mr. Krier responded that they had contacted the DNR and had indicated it was not a protected wetland. Engineering Department had checked the water run-off and pond depth after recent substantial rainfalls and concluded that the outlet pipe in the pond should adequately handle excessive storm water run-off. Mr. Hoffman advised that after a grading permit has been issued both Nine Mile Creek Watershed District and the City monitor the project. After further dis- cussion, Member Bredesen's motion was seconded by Member Turner to continue the preliminary plat hearing on Oak Ridge of Edina to October 5, 1981, so ,that further analysis could be made:of storm watex run-off and-traffic safety concerns could be reviewed.by members of the Traffic Safety Committee.

Mr. Hughes presented the request of TMG Investments for rezoning of property generally located north of Vernon Avenue, east of Summit Avenue and west of Interlachen Boulevard from C-4 Commercial District to C-2 Commercial District. He explained that the property measures approximately 24,000 square feet in area and is developed with a building which contains a. hairdresser, a take-out restaurant and a vacant automobile service station. mately a 40 foot strip along the west edge being zoned C-2. The proponent is requesting a rezoning of the whole property from C-4 to C-2 Coinmercial District. Mr. Hughes advised that preliminary site plans have been submitted in support of the rezoning illustrating a rearrangement of access whereby two curb cuts on Interlachen are proposed to be closed but existing access points on Vernon and Sumnit would be retained. ing included primarily along the street frontage. the north side of the building and the area would be enclosed and used princi- pally for trash storage. station features would be eliminated and a uniform exterior signage scheme would be provided. the requested rezoning to C-2 is approved, variances would be required for parking quantity, parking setback, drive aisle setback and building setback along the westerly property line. It appears that most landscaping on Vernon and Interlachen would be on the rights of way controlled by the County whose policy is to prohibit landscaping on its rights of way. the Planning Commission considered this request at its last meeting and voted to reconmend that the C-2 Commercial District zoning be denied. However, the Commission did recommend the property be zoned 0-1 Office District. b7ouId concur with the Commission's recommendation as it would lower the park- ing requirement for the site. would be non-conforming uses but could continue to exist as long as those uses continued.
