Engineer Hoffman referred to the Grandview Area Traffic Study prepared by BRW in
April 1984 and revised in 1987 concerning Issue Area #1 (Vernon Avenue, Eden
Avenue, Link Road). The area was studied at that time with respect to accidents,
current traffic volumes and projected volumes. In 1987 the Study was revised to
factor in the potential redevelopment of the Lewis Engineering area and the
conclusion was to go forward with Issue Area #l. This proposed eliminating the
existing intersection of Vernon Avenue and Eden Avenue providing access via Link
Road which would be rebuilt with a traffic light. It also would accommodate
traffic from the Vernon Terrace development and would address concerns of the
Sherwood Road residents.

there are no traffic lights on Vernon Avenue today except for the signal at
Vernon/Interlachen Boulevard. From reviewing the facts with Hennepin County it
was believed that they would allow one more signalized intersection along the
corridor. With this project a deceleration lane would be constructed eastbound
along Vernon Avenue to provide for exits into Amoco, SuperAmerica and Jerry's.

the concerns of the Sherwood Road neighbors. He said that this works as a package
and would not work individually. Engineer Hoffman said in this scenario we would
be exchanging land areas with SuperAmerica.

approximately $89,600 has been donated to the Center and it is the intent of the

authority to use some of the developers' fund for the construction of the project,
with repayment of $100,000 over the next years.
Bob Christianson, Chair of Edina Park Board, said that the Park Board felt the Art

They felt that would be an appropriate use of the developers' fund to faciliate
this construction and improvement in one project rather than spacing it over a

investment in the project through future donations and fund raising activities.

Manager Rosland noted the following concerns: 1) that the contractor would
warranty the container, 2) costs related to enforcement of a mandatory recycling
program, 3) adequate market for recyclables, and 4) costs for pickup of
recyclables at garage and 5) type of recycling container. He explained that there
would be an additional cost of $44,000 for pickup of recyclables at the garage.
Manager Rosland recommended that the City purchase a container without cover which
would save approximately $34,000, and purchase the less expensive one at a savings
of approximately $1.00 per container. He also called attention to the sample
recycling program brochure which will be distributed to homeowners.

the City purchase the Buckhorn recycling container, green in color. Motion was
seconded by Member Rice. Attorney Erickson advised that, because the previous
action taken by the Council was to purchase the Shamrock container with cover, it
was not necessary to take bids as that would be considered a unique item.

container which would delay delivery somewhat.
