Rosland reminded Council that under Chapter 259 which was passed by the 1983
Legislature, off-sale liquor stores are now permitted to offer samples of wine
and cordials for tasting. Mr. Rosland indicated that the City Liquor Store
Managers felt the samplings were important in order for them to be competitive
and maintain their position in the marketplace. Member Bredesen asked whether
there was a way the City could quantify the results of wine and cordial
tastings. Mr. Rosland responded that the City could quantify it by watching
the sales volumes and monitoring it in that respect. Member Schmidt stated
her opposition to the wine and cordial tastings in the City owned liquor stores.
Member Turner indicated that the City has taken great strides surveying
competitors, and have thus remained competitive according to price. Member
Richards moved that Council defer the issue of off-sale liquor stores wine and
cordial tastings permitted under Chapter 259, 1983 Legislation for six
months, and after that time bring the issue back for reconsideration. Member
Bredesen seconded the motion.

SCOPING DOCUMENT, AIRPORT SOUTH DISTRICT, DISCUSSED. Mr. Rosland explained to
Council that this Scoping Document was prepared with input from the Environmental
Quality Board Staff regarding the development anticipated in the Airport
South District as a result of the abandoned existing stadium in Bloomington.
This 100-acre stadium site is available for development, and the City of Bloom-
ington will.be considering the creation of a large-scale, mixed-use urban devel-
opment containing hotels, office space, unique complementary retail, restaurant
and entertainment facilities, and specialized uses including an international
trade center. Mr. Rosland indicated to Council that public review and comment
regarding the Scoping Document is scheduled for August 3, 1983, from 2:OO to
4:OO p.m., in the Creekside Center, Bloomington. The meeting will be conducted
by the Environmental Quality Board, and Mr. Rosland suggested Council Members
attend to present their viewpoints on this issue. Mayor Courtney stated his
approval of the project. Member Turner indicated no reason to oppose the project
but questioned if there would possibly be any negative impacts on the City
of Edina as a result of the development. Mr. Rosland responded there could be
the possibility of the Airport South District density taking people out of our
already presently developed properties. Member Bredesen added his support for
tIie project, but suggested Council not take formal action on the the issue,
instead not necessarily support the project but support the principle. Member
Richards commented that the Airport South District development would be help-
ful for the entire Metropolitan area, and he then moved that Council address
a letter to the City of Bloomington expressing the City of Edina's support for
the principle of the Airport South District development project. Motion was
seconded by Member Turner.

to changing the language in the ordinance to allow modifications to existing

office space. Reverend John P. Trelstad, Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran
Church of Edina, 500 Blake Road, addressed Council stating it was necessary
