DALE ROAD; IMPROVEMENTS NO. P-14 AND NO. P-15 AUTHORIZED. Mr. Hughes presented the
request of the Edina Public Schools, IDS f273, for a Conditional Use Permit. He .
advised that the Edina Community Center, 5701 Normandale Road, proposes to construct
additional off-street parking to support the present and future parking needs of the
Center. The lots proposed are an east parking lot and a parking lot on the south
side of the Center.
there have been some revisions to the design of the lots. He presented a graphic
showing the south lot and pointed out the existing east frontage road of T.H. 100,
advising that the access to the lot would be maintained at approximately the same
location and would be constructed where there is now an existing shot put and discus

Development and Planning Commission reviewed the request at their meeting of
January 30, 1985, and recommended that a Conditional Use Permit should be granted

one-way circulation system between the lot on the east side to the previous lot

commented that when.the City was asked to participate the first time, the Council
had asked the Edina Human Relations Commission to look at how much community use
there was of 'the Center and it was determined that it was indeed a community facility
and it was appropriate for the City to be involved.

time by users' .fees. Douglas Johnson, Director of the Community Center, clarified
usage of the facility pointing out that approximately 40% is community education,

mately 65% non-tenant usage.
Advisory Committee is in the process of developing a 5-year plan for the use
of the building, the governing structure, and capital improvements and that it is
an issue that the Committee should discuss and deal with for the long term. No
