was presented which showed the proposed plan and illustrated a joint platting of the
Miller and Kuenzli property, including the transfer of some of the Miller property
to the Kuenzlis to increase the size of two of their non-conforming lots. The plan
was also based upon the Kunezlis being assessed for sewer, water and street improve-

its power of eminent domain to secure the right of way. If the Council elects to use
this authority, it is suggested that a resolution be adopted authorizing acquisition
by purchase or eminent domain if necessary. Staff would then suggest that final plat
approval of the Miller Addition should be continued pending the design of the proposed
public improvements, acquisition of the right of way and agreement of Millers to pay
related costs. If the use of eminent domain is not authorized, staff would recommend
that the Miller Addition should be denied. Mr. Hughes also advised that, with regard

Engineer Hoffman recalled that the Traffic Safety Committee at its meeting of
June 12, 1984, had recommended signalization of the Vernon AvenuejBlake Road and
Vernon Avenue/Tracy Avenue intersections and had suggested that a public hearing
be held in September so that residents of the area could voice their opinions. The
Committee had at that time recommended that the Council adopt a resolution to
request the Hennepin County Board to consider installations of traffic signals at
these locations with no assessment for the project to property owners.
further that the Committee's recommendation was based on a traffic survey which has
been conducted by Hennepin County. Mr. Hoffman presented a graphic showing traffic
volumes on a 24-hour basis. Speaking in favor of signalization were Wayne Childs,
5725 Blake Road; Linda Farrell, 5700 Blake Road, stating she represented the families
of the Highland and Countryside Schools.communities; Carol Carlson, 5521 Glengarry
Parkway; Rowenna.Hohman, 5714 Blake Road;.rJack Eike, 5713 Vernon Avenue; and John
Teifer, 5717 Hawkes Drive. Trish Brown, 6137 Sherman Circle, stated she was repre-
senting the families in the area of Bredesen Park who have small children and they
support signal lights at Olinger Boulevard and Vernon Avenue.
'Merritt Circle voiced his opposition to a traffic signal at Vernon Avenue and Tracy.
Tom Withhark, 5712 Tracy Avenue, stated that he was concerned that a signal light
at Vernon and Tracy would draw more traffic from the area south of the Crosstown
Highway going to the shopping area on Vernon Avenue. Member Richards questioned
if the traffic volume numbers shown would meet the necessary warrants for signali-
nation. Mr. Hoffman responded that they would and further advised that the City's
portion of the costs could be funded by State Aid money for the greater portion,
and that he would recommend adoption of a resolution requesting signalization.

RECOMMENDATIONS PRESENTED FOR GOOSE PROBLEM IN CITY.
contacting the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Department it was recommended that control of
the geese within the City can be undertaken by residents by harrassment of the birds
off property principally through the use of a water hose and nozzle. For the City,
it is recommended that this Fall the City: 1) continue to post "DO Not Feed Waterfowl"
signs, 2) that any existing goose boxes be removed, 3) that muskrats in problem areas
be.trapped out to eliminating geese nesting on muskrat houses and that any aeration
systems be shut down for the winter so that the ice freezes ... over. Mr. Rosland noted
further that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife is obtaining migratory and distress calls of
the birds in hope of getting them to migrate. The Department will also be sent a
letter identifying the problem areas this Fall so that next spring the removal program
can be initiated. John Horton, 6309 St. Johns Avenue, affirmed that geese in his
back yard this summer have become a real problem and that they have also become a
concern to air traffic near the airport and that probably the federal government
could be asked to resolve the problem of the goose population in the metropolitan area.
