PRELIMRBRY AREA1 Presentation by Mananer - Manager Rosland informed Council that he had been negotiating with the Rauenhorsts/Opus Corporation concerning purchase of the Normandale Golf Course property. August 5, 1991, and Council had requested that he meet with the Park Board, the area neighbors and the Planning Commission regarding the potential acquisition. He reported that those meetings have occurred and the area neighbors were encouraged to attend subsequent public hearings on the matter. All property owners within a 500 foot radius of the subject property have been officially notified of the issues now before the Council: 1. Comprehensive Plan Amendment from Quasi-public to Public and Office 2. Preliminary Rezoning from R-1, Single Dwelling Unit District to POD-2, Planned Office District and Preliminary Plat Approval.

He reminded Council that he had presented a preliminary report on The Park Board's recommendation to the Council included the following: 1. 2. 3. Acquire 22 acres as public land and develop it as a golf course. Evaluate the estimated $700,000 construction cost for the golf course. If Lake Edina Park is used as part of the total golf course expansion: a. Eliminate the softball fields but provide a replacement field. b. Incorporate a new playground facility. c. Eliminate tennis courts but provide for future possible development. I The site contains approximately 28 acres and the owners have submitted a request to rezone a portion of the site, 6.2 acres, to POD-2 Planned Office District to allow future construction of a five story, 106,000 square foot office building. The City's goal has been to negotiate purchase of the remaining 22 acres at a reasonable price, and to pay for it with fees generated from the redesigned nine- hole executive course which would incorporate Lake Edina Park. Opus Corporation has agreed to construct a clubhouse, at no cost to the City, containing 4,000 ~ square feet. The owners of the adjoining office complex, have agreed to grant an easement to the City to allow construction of a roadway and sanitary sewer system to service the new golf course. In general, the neighbors support the acquisition of the golf course, but have raised two key issues: 1) Commitment from the Rauenhorsts in 1961-62 that this property would always continue as a golf course. record to substantiate such a commitment. (2) Rezoning of the 6.2 acres for office use. There are no legal documents on The Planning Commission, at its meeting of September 4, 1991, recommended the following actions: 1. Amendment of the Comprehensive Plan from Quasi-public to Office and Public. 2. Preliminary rezoning from R-1, Single Dwelling Unit District to POD-1, Planned Office District (four story height limit). 3. Preliminary plat approval to divide property for sale of the golf course area to the City. In response to the Planning Commission's recommendation, Opus has prepared a modified site plan. foot office building with an increased setback from the northerly property line with parking on the south side of the building. The proposed building would be setback 140 feet from the northerly property line of the site, the property line I The revised plan illustrates a four story, 104,000 square 9/23/91 205 would be 280 feet from the property line of the nearest residence and the building itself would be 420 feet from the nearest house. glass building would be 16 feet higher than the adjacent office buildings, not including roof mechanical equipment on either building. The proposed mirrored This is the first attempt by the City to purchase property through recreational user fees. The City would need'to carry the golf course financially for approximately nine to ten years until it would become profitable. financial analysis suggests that the City sell $2.25 million in bonds with a thirty year retirement schedule.

Personnel from Braemar Golf Course would manage the facility and equipment maintenance would be done at the Braemar facility. The clubhouse The clubhouse donation would reduce the net cost of the total golf In conclusion, Manager Rosland cited the following reasons in support of the purchase :+ 1. office or other high density development. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. The primary drawback would be the impact of the proposed office building. He stressed that although Rauenhorst/Opus Corporation is requesting rezoning to Planned Office District, they have no specific plans for development, nor do they have a client ready to purchase or build on the property. The neighbors would be once-and-for-all protected from encroachment by Kellogg Avenue would be made into a cul-de-sac, augmenting safety and so 1 i tude for the neighborhood . Playground equipment would be moved closer to the residential area. Softball playing, which has from time to time created noise problems for the neighbors, would no longer exist at this site. Valuable open space would be preserved. The City would gain a first class executive golf facility at a land cost of $.94 per square foot. Member Kelly asked for specific examples of other areas in the City that have residences as close to office buildings as the one proposed. Manager Rosland answered that there are many such areas, some are only the width of a street away. Rosland explained that the land currently is zoned R-1 and single family housing could be developed. For any other type of development the Council would have to approve the rezoning. Attorney Erickson explained that the subject area is shown as quasi-public, i.e. privately owned nine-hole golf course for public use. If a request for rezoning is denied by the Council, the proponent could appeal to district court and ultimately to the Supreme Court on the grounds that the denial of their request was arbitrary and capricious. Presentation bv Developer Bob Worthington, Opus Corporation, presented graphics of the revised site plan prepared in response to the Planning Commission's recommendation. the record a letter dated September 23, 1991, from Mark Rauenhorst, President of Member Smith asked what could be developed on the property. Manager He read into 9/23/91 Normandale Golf/President of Opus Corporation. support for rezoning a portion of the Normandale Golf Course property for future development as an office building, making it possible for the majority of the existing golf course to be purchased by the City for use as a public course. It stated satisfaction with the financial arrangement worked out with the City Manager and expressed some concern over the Planning Commission's proposal to reduce the office building from the original proposal of five stories to four and increase the setback from the golf course on the north property line. The letter concluded with the comment that they would abide by the Council's judgement as to which alternative is most appropriate and compatible with the long term budget and development interests of the City, as long as reasonable development rights for the land they own are a part of the transaction. The letter expressed strong ' Public Comment Speaking in opposition to the proposed rezoning of the six acre tract to POD-1 were: Joe Stoutenburgh, 7449 West Shore Drive; David Berg, 4905 Poppy Lane, who presented a petition with 104 signatures in opposition; Kenneth Hodges, 7428 West Shore Drive; Milt Possis, 7400 West Shore Drive; Harry Barnes, 5611 Countryside, representing the property immediately to the west of the proposed rezoning; Bill Hanson, 7457 West Shore Drive; Tom Anderson, 7453 West Shore Drive and owner of 7467-69 West Shore Drive; Geoff London, 7437 West Shore Drive. Robert Nelson, 4515 Sedum Lane, spoke in favor of the City owning the golf course and urged purchase of the entire 28 acres. David Byron, 7433 West Shore Drive, stated that he was a member of the Planning Commission. He spoke to his written submission entitled Normandale Golf Course, dated September, 1991, which included history and background on the golf course as a planned buffer created in the 1960's as part of Edina's land use planning process. He said the revised site plan submitted by Opus Corporation was in response to the Planning Commission but, in his opinion, was not responsive. Although now proposed at four stories, the square feet per floor has been increased with the result that the building pad is increased by some 20%. concluded by saying that those residents who have to look at the office building are being asked to pay too great a price for the value of the rezoning which is a a part of the negotiations for the land. I He Bob Christianson, Park Board Chair, spoke to the Park Board recommendations and concerns about the loss of the tennis courts/softball fields if Lake Edina Park is incorporated into the new golf course. diminishing and that the courts at Lake Cornelia School could be utilized as replacement. Because adult softball is becoming more popular, the Park Board recommended that funding be provided to upgrade existing softball fields in the community. He explained that tennis playing is Letters in opposition to the proposed rezoning were received from Charles and June McAllister, 4908 Poppy Lane; A.G. Lowell, 7505 Kellogg Av. S.; R. Charles and Diane E.B. Petersen, 4904 Poppy Lane; Paul A. Jensen, 7445 West Shore Drive; Geoff London, 7437 West Shore Drive; Joseph Stoutenburgh, 7449 West Shore Drive; and Felicity Hanson, 7457 West Shore Drive. A letter in favor of the rezoning proposal was received from Les and Mary Robison, 7421 Kellogg Avenue South. Council Comment/Action Mayor Richards commented that he was a proponent of acquiring the golf course in 1984-85 and still is for these reasons: 1) The daytime population of Edina is greater than ever and the City has an opportunity to preserve land in active open space, 2) It would provide recreational opportunities for the aging population of Edina, 3) It would give the City control over any options for use of the land should golf become less popular, 4) It would provide a buffer between residential and commercial uses and would alleviate the risk of lawsuits relating to future I 9/23/91 207 development, 5) The proposed office building, in his opinion, will not reduce land values, and 6) The land purchase is a bargain considering prices being paid for single family lots in Edina. He mentioned that a year ago Commissioner of Transportation Len Levine had mentioned acquiring this land as a parking facility for light rail transit. That caused concern as to what might happen on the land. Further, taking into account the recommendations of both the Planning Commission and the Park Board,.Mayor Richards said he was persuaded that the City should acquire the land and presenre it for future generations to use. continues to operate very conservatively regarding finances and the same can be applied to the negotiations for the purchase of this land. The City has and He concluded by saying he supported the actions recommended to the Council. -. Member Rice commented that the area should be retained in some type of open public ownership to maintain the buffer that was intended back in the 1960's. His concerns were as follows: 1) He would like further data regarding the Park Board's statement that sufficient money be allocated for replacement of tennis courts and ballfields, 2) He would like a more comprehensive study of financial projections for the course, 3) He would like more information on the clubhouse, and 4) He would like an opinion on the allegation that proper notice of this hearing had not been given. Member Rice stated he felt there would be no loss in property value to the residents because of the office building as the golf course would be a great place to live next to. of grooming. but is less sure about it being a good deal for the City and would like the developers to give more definition to the revised site plan. Further, the area generally is in need He concluded that he felt this is a good deal for the neighborhood Member Paulus questioned why a coalition of golfers was not in attendance for the meeting. She stated, because of her career as a realtor, she feels the homes in the neighborhood would be negatively impacted. West Shore Drive is a residential area the existing R-1 zoning is a protection for the area. homes were to be built, there would be a loss of green space but that would seem preferable to the proposed office building. Corporation is selling low to make a gain and suggested they consider giving the remaining acreage to the City for golf course or open space. Council that we have the largest population of senior citizens in the state, and when they are gone who will support the golf course. that at this time she could not support the proposed rezoning. If single family She believed Rauenhorst/Opus She reminded Member Paulus concluded Member Kelly stated she was not prepared to make a decision on approving the preliminary rezoning or amending the Comprehensive Plan at this time. concern about the ability of the new golf course to be financially sound, especially because of the proposed expansion at Braemar Golf Course. She voiced Member Smith said he believed the value for the land is good. that the City build its own clubhouse facility rather than accept a donation in kind. control to bring closure to the issue. The 22 acres should be acquired but the building on the six acres is too large for the site and he is further troubled by parking plans. remain open, but that he was not ready to make a decision on the proposed rezoning. He would prefer He felt change will occur to the land and therefore the City should get He felt it is unrealistic to believe that a six acre space would After lengthy discussion, Manager Rosland said he would address the concerns raised by the Council at the next meeting.

Affidavits of Notice were presented, approved and ordered placed on file. Planner Larsen presented the request for preliminary plat approval for property located east of Millers Lane and north of the Crosstown Highway. property is an undeveloped parcel of approximately 3.5 acres and is bounded on the north and east by a pond, on the south by the Crosstown Highway and on the west by a public path within the Wooddale Avenue right of way. < Presentation bv Planner The subject The proposed plat suggests the easterly extension of West 64th Street into the property, turning north and ending in a cul-de-sac, to serve the six new single family lots. One half of the proposed new street is on State highway right of way and would require that the State release and transfer this land to the City. It would also require the relocation of the existing State owned fence along the highway. To evaluate the proposal, staff considered the 45 single family lots in the 500 foot neighborhood with median dimensions as follows: median lot width of 82.2 feet, median lot depth of 135 feet and median lot area of 10,280 square feet. During review of the proposed eight lot plat, staff felt the proposed eight lot plat was too intense. Lots 1 and 2 be combined, that the resulting lot be re-oriented to the cul-de- sac, and that Lot 8 be eliminated. The six lot plat would provide lots 86 to 125 feet in width, 160 to 270 feet in depth, and 16,362 to 31,154 square feet in area and all lots would exceed ordinance requirements. The revised six lot plat would accomplish three important objectives: The developaent was initially proposed as eight single family lots. I The recommendation to the Planning Commission was that 1. Lot dimensions and areas would be increased and the lot width variance for 2. 3. Lot 3 in the initial eight lot plat would be eliminated. More space would be provided adjacent to the Crosstown Highway to construct noise mitigation features. Building pad areas would be increased and more space would be available for the conservation easement adjacent to the pond. At its meeting of September 4, 1991, the Planning Commission recommended preliminary plat approval of the revised six lot plat conditioned on 1) Final plat approval, 2) Subdivision dedication, 3) A 50 foot conservation easement along pond, 4) DNR review and permits, if required, 5) Watershed District grading permits and drainage analysis, 6) Developers Agreement, and 7) Release of right of way by MNDOT for extension of West 64th Street. Presentation bv Proponent Fred Katter, representing the Katter Family Partnership, expressed appreciation for staff's guidance in proposing that the plat be reduced from eight to six lots resulting in a better subdivision. to the Katter family, having developed some of the lots in the neighborhood in I He explained that this area is very familiar 9/23/91 209 the 1950's. extension of West 64th Street into the unused land for construction of six rambler type homes that will be larger and more expensive. Lots 1 and 6 will require a combination of berming, fencing and plantings to mitigate noise from the Crosstown Highway and will be integrated into the architecture of the homes. Katter Family Partnership is committed to preserving the natural area along the existing pond on the property and have met with and talked with the various agencies involved in the preservation of the area. Their plan is to continue the single family neighborhood by the Because of location, Public Comment Mayor Richards noted that letters in opposition to the proposed subdivision have been received from: Mrs. E.H. Eisenbrey, 6228 Brookview Avenue South; Mrs. Joann Kruckeberg, 6320 Brookview Avenue; William Andrusko, 6304.Brookview Avenue; Jay and Judy Hornbacher, 4509 Nancy Lane; David and Susan Fleming, 6324 Brookview Avenue; and J.H.
