CENTER APPROVED.
ordered placed on file.
1986, the HRA reviewed concept plans concerning the Grandview redevelopment area.
Three projects were discussed in those meetings: 1) a public parking ramp/Public
Works facility east of Jerry's Shopping Center, 2) an upgrading of Link Road and
3) a redevelopment of the Lewis Engineering/Kunz Oil properties. At that time
the HRA gave conceptual approval to the parking ramp/Public Works facility and
the upgrading of Link Road with the understanding that staff would return with
more detailed information prior to final approval.

have worked together to formulate plans for Jerry's expansion as well as for the
public parking ramp/Public Works facility.
proposed approximate 40,000 square foot addition has been reviewed by the Develop-

would be available for employees working in the area.
Kelly's questions about the parking, Arthur Dickey, architect for the project,
clarified that there are now 403 existing spaces in the shopping center complex;
that 280 will be added for a total of 683; that 36 surface spaces will be lost;
and that after construction there will be 647 parking spaces for the entire skte.
He said that congestion will be eliminated because the surface parking area will
be regraded on a level plain and the main entrance will be re-done. Member Turner
asked if the ramp would be expandable and if there would be a way to control the
mix of traffic at the signalized intersection of Vernon/Interlachen which she felt
would be important.

Hoffman said that the approach to the signal from the subject property would have
to be reconfigured in total with the addition of islands to make it work better.
Mr. Hughes then presented the following details and estimated cost for the parking

Number of Parking Spaces-280, Floor Area of Public Works Building-27,600 square
feet. Preliminary.Cost Estimate: Demolition $50,000, Ramp $1,336,900, Garage

to proceed with this project, the following actions will be required:
1) Council should grant final development plan approval for Jerry's proposed
improvements; 2) A redevelopment contract embodying the terms of the proposed
project must be authorized by the HRA; 3) Staff should be authorized to prepare
final plans and solicit bids for the ramp/Public Works garage, and 4) A bond
sale must be authorized to finance the parking ramp. As to the bond sale,

tax increment would come from Jerry's addition and what the logic was for including
the Woodhaven project in the tax increment assumptions. Mr. Hughes said that the
addition would have an assessed value of approximately $800,000 which would equate
to taxes of about $80,000 annually, assuming a mill rate of 10%. For purposes of
the analysis it was assumed that the entire tax increment district would be pledged
to any debt that would be incurred by the district. Member Turner asked if there
would be tax increment funds to do the Link Road project if this project is approved.
Mr. Hughes replied that staff has always viewed the Link Road project as tied to
the Biltmore redevelopment, both from a planning and tax increment standpoint.

RESOLUTION APPROVING FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN
FOR JERRY'S SHOPPING CENTER I BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Edina, Minnesota, that the
Final Development Plan for Jerry's Shopping Center, 5001-5125 Vernon Avenue,
presented at the regular meeting of the City Council of July 21, 1986, be and
is hereby approved.
Motion for adoption of the resolution was seconded by Member Turner who commented
that her support of the project was based on: 1) That it would address the traffic
and parking concerns in the area which were identified when the Tax Increment
District was established in 1984, 2) That this was an opportunity for a public-
private partnership in construction of the ramp, and 3) That because this is
the commercial area for the northwestern portion of the City it is important
that continued investment occurs to insure quality for the area.

ANNE THERKELSEN'S COMMENTS HEARD REGARDING EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES. Anne Therkel-
sen stated that she resides at 13% Fifth Street N.E. and told the Council of. her
experiences with police and fire personnel on various occasions concerning her
epileptic seizures while in the City of Edina.
various dates and referred to alleged injuries she has sustained. She stated
that she felt there were significiant problems in how the paramedic service is
operated. She said that she has carried letters since 1972 that say what to do
when she had a seizure but that those instructions are ignored. Ms. Therkelsen
stated that she has been requested to write a letter to Edina that she does not
want paramedic service when she has a seizure but that she did not want to do that
in case something was severely wrong with her, such as an accident, because that
would put her in jeopardy. She stated that on June 20, 1986 she filed a complaint
against paramedic 1/43 which has been given to the City prosecutor.
she has received a letter that she must appear in court on August 4, 1986 to answer
charges against her. Ms. Therkelsen said that, basically, she was asking that
1) a memorandum dated December 10, 1975 written by the Fire Chief regarding
her be recalled, 2) that she be penpitted to train fire and police personnel
in Edina on how to handle a person who,has.had a seizure, and 3) that
a "leash" be put on paramedic 1/43.
Therkelsen and has seen her have hundreds of seizures and that they are geniune.
He stated that when these occur it was not appropriate to call an ambulance or
to take her to the hospital; that she needs to rest in a stress free environment
for about 10 minutes to recover. He said he would like to see a change in the way
she is handled. Mayor Courtney asked the City Attorney to respond to Ms. Therkel-
sen's requests. Mr. Erickson opined that he would have great concern if the City
did not respond with emergency medical service when Ms. Therkelsen has a seizure
and that it appears that police and fire personnel are taking action based on
their standard procedure. With regard to the memorandum dated December 10, 1975
he said he has not seen it and does not know if it may need to be updated and that
he saw problems in responding to all three of her requests. Mr. Rosland advised
that he has asked Dr. Crimmons, medical director for the paramedics, to look into
the City's procedures with regard to treating individuals who are experiencing
seizures. Member Bredesen said he supported getting Dr. Crimmons' assessment
as to procedures and that after the Council has the report they could consider .
whether any changes should be made or not.

REPORT GIVEN ON WEST 77 STREET/NATIONAL CAR RENTAL. Mr. Hoffman recalled that
at its meeting of June 2, 1986, the Council had discussed the development of
the roadway between Bloomington's Homart project and National Car Rental.
had directed staff to ask National Car Rental if they would be willing to pay
for a portion of the east-west link road to Parklawn Avenue which they strongly
desire be constructed at the same time in order to prevent the use of National's
parking lot as a public thoroughfare, thus creating a severe traffic hazard to
their employees.

special assessment to be levied by the City of Edina and paid for over a period
of several years. With regard to the link road construction, National's position
is that it would be a benefit to properties west of them and they would expect
that cost to be assessed to those benefiting and not to National. If the Council
desires for staff to continue working with Bloomington on the project, the next
. step would be to develop a joint powers agreement between the cities incorporating
the National Car Rental agreement. Mr. Hoffman said that Don Amundson of National
Car Rental was present to comment or answer questions.
National's greatest concern is for the safety of their employees from traffic
cutting through their parking lot and that the link road construction would
alleviate that. He reiterated National's position that the link road would
benefit properties to the west and would only be of secondary benefit to them.
As to action at this point, Mr. Hoffman said the next step would be to authorize
staff to develop a joint powers agreement with Bloomington for construction of
West 77th Street and to consider the construction of the link road within the
next year or two. Member Turner then made a motion directing staff to proceed
to develop a joint powers agreement with the City of Bloomington for the con-
struction of West 77th Street and that the Council consider in the normal course
of City plans the building of the link over the next couple of years. Motion
was seconded by Member Bredesen, who commented that this action should not be
read as an acknowledgement that National Car Rental will not benefit from the
link road, and if an assessment process is used it may or may not include National.

MINNEJ3AHA CREEK WATERSHED FLOOD PLAIN REPORT GIVEN. Mr. Hoffman reported that
the water level has gone down in Lake Minnetonka and that today the dam was
closed on Gray's Bay after three months so that now flood waters should return
within the creek banks. The decision to close the dam was made according to the
Storm Water Management Plan developed several years ago. He also said that the
Minnehaha Creek Watershed Board had turned down the request to study and advise
regarding the Cascade Lane flooding problems in Edina. The Board felt that it was
not unique enough to justify expenditures by them.
Minnehaha Creek flood plain in the City, Mr. Hoffman said that staff has received
calls since Spring from property owners abutting the creek, from Xerxes Avenue
on the east following Minnehaha Creek to the north border of the City, regarding
the flooding of the lower areas of the flood plain. The calls have:been about
water in yards, trees standing in water, trees falling into the creek, erosion
of the bank, etc. Mr. Hoffman recalled that the current policy set by the Council
is that the homeowner is responsible for any work regarding flood water in yards.
He pointed out that in the 70's there essentially were no flooding problems, but
that in the last three years flooding has occurred quite frequently due to an
increase in rainfall.
flooding has occurred along .the creek and also around ponds. With regard to the
recent flooding on Circle West, he stated that was caused by the breaking of the
dike in Meadowbrook Golf Course which is owned by the City of Minneapolis.
Minneapolis is in the process of selecting a hydraulic engineer to get an opinion
on the structure of the dike and its long term serviceability. Mr. Hoffman said
that the DNR is also aware of the dike problem.
