explained that the staffs from-Hennepin County, Minneapolis, St. Louis Park and
Edina have been working with MNDbt to develop a-plan which will ultimately result
in Hennepin County taking back the France Avenue roadway from Excelsior Boulevard
all the way to 54th Street as a continuation of County Road 17 going through Edina
into Bloomington to Old Shakopee Road.
carries approximately 125 MTC buses a day, making it a heavy transit route.
County is willing to take the roadway back only if it is reconstructed to standards
which will allow the County to use state aid funds at future dates. Council action
being sought at this informal public hearing is for.preliminary plan approval and
authorization to submit a formal request for variance to the State of Minnesota.
Mr. Hoffman stated that there would be a formal hearing scheduled later in the year
at which the final design details will be presented.
Engineering Department had held an infcrmal meeting with residentslproperty owners
abutting this segment of France Avenue on August 16, 1984, to obtain their input
and to express any concerns they eght have so that staff could better present these
i'ssues in discussion with the other involved agencies. The preliminary plan being
presented is basically the same as presented at the August 16th meeting.and covers
three aspects: l).width of roadway, 2) what.parking is to be provided, and 3) what
sidewalks should be constructed along the project.
for residential parking on one side or the other of France Avenue.
then reviewed the preliminary plan for reconstruction of France Avenue as follows:
North boundary of City to W. 42nd-Street:. Proposed width of 40' with.no parking on
West side; W. 42nd Street to Morningside Road:
on West side, existing asphalt pathway would be eliminated and City would need to
acquire right of way to consthct a sidewalk, retaining wall would also be required;
Morningside Road to W. 45th Street:
both sides of France Avenue except for bus stop areas, recommendation to work with
Northern States Power Company to get power lines buried through the business area;
W. 45th Street to W. 49th Street:
side, sidewalk would be difficult and costly to construct; W. 49th Street to
W. 49% Street:
noted that sidewalk is proposed on the Minneapolis side for the entire project.
Storm sewer is proposed for three low areas: W. 42nd Street and France, Morningside
Road and France and W. 48th and W. 49th Streets and France Avenue. Because the
proposed roadway widths do not meet any of the criteria necessary for the use of
state aid funds, it will be necessary to seek a variance from the State to construct
the roadway to the proposed widths.
posed project could be totally absorbed by state aid funds. Mr. Hoffman explained .
that the involved cities have asked the State to fund 90% of the cost of the project
estimated at approximately 2.5lfy leaving approximately $300,000/400,000 to be borne
by the three cities.

Mr. Hoffman noted that property owners south of W. 44th Street were assessed for
some concrete work on France Avenue in 1954, but that staff has been unable to
determine if anyone north of W. 44th Street has ever paid any-assessment. The
following persons expressed concerns regarding the proposed project: Kathryn
Schmid, 4711 Meadow Road, reiterated the concerns as stated in her letter
especially regarding the construction of a sidewalk on.the west side of France
Avenue between W. 47th and W. 48th Street, noting that no Edina homes front on
France Avenue in that block; Judy Johnson, 4300 France Avenue, spoke in strong
support of sidewalk on the west side of France Avenue to provide safety for
adults and children in particular who need to walk to bus stops on Scott Terrace.
Mr. Hoffman indicated that the sidewalk issues could be considered when the
Council reviewed the final design details at the public hearing to be held later
this year.
Member Bredesen introduced the following resolution and moved adoption:

recalled that at its meeting of November 5, 1984, the Council had approved the
Braemar Golf Committee's report on the proposed capital improvements to Braemar
Golf Course consisting of 1) renovation and expansion of the maintenance building,
2) expansion of the Par 3 to an Executive Course, and 3) renovation and expansion
of the clubhouse. As a second step, the Finance Department has reviewed the
projections of the expansion of Braemar Golf Course. Various changes were recom-
mended in the projected revenue and expense amounts along with a more thorough
breakdown of the assumptions used to arrive at the projected amounts. Mr. Rosland
reported that Mr. Dalen, Finance Director, together with his assistant, now feel
that the revenue and expense projections, together with the underlying assumptions
are now reasonable and together with staff would now recommend that the proposed
capital improvements be constructed. It is proposed that the projects be funded
from proceeds of sale of bonds by the City.
construction of the Par 3 to an Executive Course would begin in the Spring of 1985,
the renovation and expansion of the maintenance building would be constructed
during 1985 and the renovation and expansion of the clubhouse would not start until
the Fall of 1986. Member Turner commented that she supported the project and noted
that the projected junior patron.greens fees had been lowered. She added that ..
there is still a 10% increase per year for'greens fees on the-Executive Course
and cautioned that we be careful not to price the community's young'people out of
these facilities.

agreement with the owner of the cemetery whereby in exchange for the transfer to him
of these corn-ers of the park, which will facilitate his road plan for the cemetery,
he will allow the City to enter on his property for the purpose of re-grading the
common boundary line and will allow the City to use the fill from that grading in
order to provide a compatible grade between the park and the cemetery property.
Staff .would therefore recommend Council action by resolution to reconvey these
corner parcels to the State of Minnesota, pursuant to statute, and to direct that
Hennepin County place these parcels of land on private sale, limiting the sale to
the abutting property owner.

ORDINANCE NO. 812-A2 REFERRFD TO COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING COMMISSION FOR
FURTHER STUDY.
An Ordinance to Regulate Construction and Maintenance of Telecommunication, Tele-
vision and Radio Antennas, Exterior Dish Antennas and Supporting Towers, First
Reading at its meeting of December 17, 1984. The amendment is proposed to revise
some of the requirements and make the language more understandable and in conformity
with the new Zoning Ordinance, and to establish a standard for dealing with dish
antennas.
Reading and adoption.
No. 812-A2. Motion was seconded by Member Kelly. Discussion followed with Member
Richards stating he could not support the amendment because it would permit dish .
antennas to be located 5 feet from the rear lot line and thereby would impact the
abutting property to a greater degree than the property of the owner of the antenna.
He added that he has had concern about the whole issue of where personal property,
i.e. boats, recreational vehicles, sheds, dog kennels, etc., is allowed.by ordinance
to be sited and the resulting impact on neighbors' property. Member Richards
suggested that the issue should be studied by the Community Development and Planning
Commission together with staff and that a report be made back to the Council. Mayor
Courtney and Member Bredesen agreed that the issue should be reviewed. Mr. Hughes
submitted that the proposed ordinance could be amended to require that dish antennas
have the same setback as for a single family home which would mean they would have
to be placed at least 10 feet from the side lot line and 25 feet from the rear lot
line.

we are with other uses. Member Turner then called for a vote on the motion before
