3. AQUATIC WEED IMPROVEMENT NO. AQ-88
Location: Indianhead Lake and Mill Pond
Assistant Manager Hughes presented analysis of assessment showing total cost for

per home and total cost for the Mill Pond of $7,418.00 proposed to be assessed
against 63 homes. One year assessment to be paid in 1989. Steven Snyder, 4601
Sunnyside Road, stated his objection referred to that portion of the assessment
that relates to the use of chemicals to control aquatic vegetation. He reiterated
he objection as stated in his letter of September 10, 1988 and said, in his
opinion, what needs to be addressed is some type of policy to begin a restriction
on fertilizer run-off that is occurring into Minnehaha Creek and the Mill Pond
that causes the algae and weed growth. He suggested that when the notice of the
assessment is sent that the landowners along the creek and pond be told that there
are options other than phosphorous based fertilizers that could be used on
backyards sloping to the creek.
accomplish the same thing without stimulating the weed growth.
adjacent landowners don't realize the relationship between phosphorous fertilizers
applied to areas sloping to the creek and pond and the weed growth that occurs in
the Mill Pond. Also, steps should be taken to work with the up-stream communities
to see if the same type of policy could be achieved which eventually would result
in a beneficial impact in restoring the creek and the pond to a more natural
condition. Following discussion of the issues raised by Mr. Snyder, Manager
Rosland said staff would develop a proposed policy for future use of chemicals
relating to Minnehaha Creek and the Mill Pond.
Assessment approved by motion of Member Smith, seconded by Member Turner and
carried unanimously.

Larsen pointed out that this use is a new concept in housing and the question
arose as to whether the zoning should be Planned Senior Citizen District or as a

be complete and will have all facilities as opposed to a nursing home room that it

concluded his presentation by advising that the Planning Commission at its meeting
of September 7, 1988 recommended preliminary rezoning and preliminary plat
approval with several conditions including final rezoning, final plat approval,
successful exchange of the parcels between the proponents and 7500 York, proof of
parking agreement, standard 24-foot drive aisle width, approved drainage and
landscaping plans, dedication of sufficient right of way along York Avenue
sufficient to create a right turn in from southbound York to westbound Parklawn,
understanding that the sidewalk along Parklawn would subject to their maintenance,
and installation of street light wires for future traffic signals. Planner Larsen
advised that the proponents were present to answer questions. Member Turner asked
what is allowed in terms of density for the proposed zoning classification.
Planner Larsen explained that the Zoning Ordinance limits the density of the site
to 67 units by requiring a lot area of 1,250 square feet per dwelling unit. A
credit of 250 square feet per unit would be applied if the project were within
2000 feet of the France Avenue 1-494 interchange.

As to the market, it does not really fit the category of senior housing in the
traditional sense. It will not compete for the independent more active seniors in
their housing types scattered through the City. Mr. Elness reiterated the low
impact the development would have on traffic in the area and also spoke in support
of the curb cut on York Avenue, both as a convenient approach for emergency
vehicles and visitors. In response to questions of Member Smith, Mr. Elness

PUBLIC HEARING HELD ON ISSUE OF DIVERTING TRAFFIC ON HALIFAX AVENUE.
Fran Hoffman advised that approximately 800 notices were mailed to residents in
northeast Edina renarding the hearing on divertinp. traffic on Halifax Avenue.
Engineer
The

issue was referred to the Council for final action from the Traffic Safety
Committee. Clearly, a split opinion exists on the Committee. Background - This
hearing is a result of a petition from residents on Halifax Avenue asking that the
traffic patterns on Halifax be changed by diverting traffic.
involved increasing through traffic travelling to and from the 50th/France
commercial area.
the Committee recommended to the Council that a traffic diverter be placed at 51st
and Halifax to prevent passage of traffic leaving the 50th/France area.
effect of the diverter resulted in an average daily traffic volume of 1,130 being
reduced to an average 05 approximately 640.
and a disadvantage for residents from 50th and 54th Streets between France Avenue
on the east and Minnehaha Creek on the west who had to seek an alternate route.
After a test period of two months the diverter was removed. The new traffic count
with no diverter was 1,035 vehicles per day.
determined that the vast majority of the people who use Halifax Avenue live in the
immediate neighborhood or in northeast Edina.
whether Halifax Avenue is strictly a local residential street or functionally
should work as a neighborhood collector street which serves as access to the
5Oth/France commercial area. As chairman of the Traffic Safety Committee,
the following recommendations are presented: a) Leave situation as currently
stands and review again after parking ramp is fully open and theatre is in
operation, b) Re-install partial diverter as previously existed, and c) Final
finding that Halifax functions as a neighborhood collector. Engineer Hoffman then
described the four main types of streets within the City and explained the
function of each. He also presented a graphic showing weekday and weekend traffic
counts in the Halifax neighborhood before and after the traffic diverter was put
in place in June and the impact of the diverter on other neighborhood streets.
The Traffic Safety Committee in August recommended to the Council that the
diverter be removed to see if that attempt had done anything to educate residents
living in the subject area. In summary, the counts showed that approximately 100 I
vehicles per day less used Halifax Avenue. Engineer Hoffman advised that since
the hearing notices were mailed 84 letters had been received in response, of which
approximately 35 were in favor of reinstating the diverter and 49 were opposed.
Member Smith commented that a number of the letters objected to the closing of
Halifax and asked for a clarification.
the diverter was just that, to divert traffic from traveling southbound on Halifax
Avenue and that there had never been a proposal by the Committee or the Council to
close off the street.
calling Halifax a neighborhood "collector" street as opposed to a local
residential street would it simply be a matter of reflecting the kind of use of
the street or does it mean anything more.
something to be aware of but that it would not be identified on the map as a city
collector street which normally would have traffic counts of 2-3,000 vehicles per
day or because it leads to some other connecting point on an arterial street.
vehicular use of Halifax Avenue is at the upper end as a local residential street
which puts it in a gray area as to its function and therefore the Committee did
not have a strong recommendation on the issue.

traffic problem not only on Halifax but in the entire neighborhood; that whether
or not we call this road a residential street or a neighborhood collector that the
City should try to manage the volume, speed and safety situation on Halifax
Avenue. Member Turner said that she was opposed to a barrier but felt the
following suggestions made the most sense: a) more intense enforcement by the
Traffic Enforcement Unit which will impact speed and those who do not heed the
stop sign and may eventually impact traffic volume, b) although a local decision,
she said if she lived on Halifax she would attempt to get sidewalks installed in
view of the number of young children on the street, c) posting advisory speed
limit of 25 mph, and d) annual review of the traffic pattern in the area keeping
in mind the commercial changes at 50th/France and to make sure that the decisions

ORDINANCE NO. 1105 ESTABLISHING A STORM WATER DRAINAGE UTILITY ADOPTED: SECOND
READING WAIVED. Engineer Hoffman advised that at the conclusion of the public
hearing conducted on August 15, 1988 on a storm drainage utility, the Council had
authorized development of an ordinance to establish same.
Council had requested additional information on two issues: 1) fee structure for
schools vs. churches, and 2) tax benefits for citizens. Staff had looked at land
uses and had assiged equivalency factors in terms of storm water runoff. In
reviewing the analysis for each school and church site, the school ratio that was
developed was exact. The analysis had produced 10 classes of land uses. With
regard to churches, staff found that the smaller the site the larger was the
impervious percentage. It was finally determined that 40/50% impervious was where
we ought to be for churches.
the financial impact of the school and church ratio was very small when
considering the utility system as a whole.
and double family units the annual fee would be $20.00 of which there could be
several dollars tax savings. For multiple, commercial and industrial, those
properties would probably pass the cost on and would not probably change how they
operate. Schools, churches, institutions, parks, golf courses and cemeteries in
some cases may not pay any taxes whatsoever.
drainage utility proposal was not to use a general tax increase but to establish a
utility fund to provide for storm drainage improvements.
question was the class for institutional. Some of these properties look like
commercial properties, i.e. Fairview Southdale Hospital, YMCA, 'and have enough
hard surface to be placed in the commercial category.

For the benefit of the public present, Engineer Hoffman explained that the storm
water drainage utility ordinance is up for First Reading and if the Council grants
First Reading that later in the agenda Council will act on the proposal to sell
revenue bonds to provide the funding to start some of the storm drainage projects.
Member Smith questioned dropping the institutional category. Attorney Erickson
suggested that commercial and institutional be combined. No further comment being
heard, Member Smith moved First Reading and adoption of the ordinance, with waiver
of Second Reading as follows:

SEWER AND WATER RATES INCREASE APPROVED.
proposed sewer and water rate increases were considered by the Council at its
meeting of August 1, 1988 at which time the Council had asked staff to run
calculations with the water rate minimum remaining at the current level and to
bring the matter back following the public hearing on the storm water utility.
Finance Director John Wallin advised that after reviewing the projections staff

as previously recommended.
should apply for the first 1800 cu. ft. of usage rather than the present 2000 cu.
ft. threshold.
Reducing the minimum to 1800 cu. ft. would have little effect on most small water
and sewer users and the cost impact for those users between 1800 cu. ft. and 2000
cu. ft. would be nominal. The $.07 per 100 cu. ft. water rate increase would
increase total revenues by approximately $210,000 which should cover costs for
capital improvements as well as operating costs.
Smith moved approval of the following water and sewer rates:
Water S.40 per 100 cu. ft.

EDINA GOLF DOME PURCHASE APPROVED.
of September 12, 1988 the Council had considered the proposal to purchase the
Edina Golf Dome. The Council had continued the matter so that additional
information could be obtained for the Council. In reference to contacting W. H.
McFadden, who had raised several questions by letter regarding the purchase,
Manager Rosland said Mr. McFadden has been out of town but that he had met with a
friend of Mr. McFadden who was involved with the letter. The Park Board also had
considered the proposal at its meeting of September 13, 1988 and because of some
misconceptions regarding the appraisal they voted to hold on their recommendation.
Subsequently, after talking with Park Board Chairman Christianson, a meeting of
the Park Board was held today at which three concerns were answered: 1) That the
building owned by the City was included in the appraisal - Response, it was not;
2) If the dome was insurable - Response, yes it is insurable which is included in
the proposed cost analysis; and 3) What happens if we have a very cold winter,
will the heat go up - Response, the cost analysis took into account a raise in
heating costs.
10-year amortization schedule which was also included in the cost analysis and it
still shows a projected cash flow of $48,000-50,000.
the key reasons for the purchase of the golf dome is to help pay for the bond
indebtedness for improvements to Braemar Arena. Also, it will enable the
balancing of work for fulltime employees at Braemar Golf Course during the winter
months. Manager Rosland stated that following the presentation of the additional
information the Board voted to recommend purchase by the City of the Edina Golf
Dome. He noted that if the Council approved the purchase that later in the agenda
the proposed recreational bond sale will include an increase of $575,000 to fund
the purchase.

BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Edina, Minnesota hereby

for significant public health impact due to chronic exposure to low level radon

from 0.5 picoCuries per liter up to 42. The action level according to EPA would
be 4 picocuries per liter and for anything above that level the homeowner should
take some action to reduce the chance for radon entering the home. In speaking
