It is one of three buildings in the The proposed redevelopment would demolish part of the existing building The plan shows the northerly The suggested uses are Planner Larsen explained that initially the plan called for a slightly larger building and would have required a 27 space parking variance. The proponents responded to criticisms of staff and the Planning Commission by reducing the size of the building and increasing the amount of parking south of West 50th Street so that the building complies with the parking requirements for retail use. Based on a revised plan, the Planning Commission recommended approval conditioned on: 1) bonded landscape plan, 2) cross easements for shared parking, and 3) no U c 127 parking on West 50th Street. comply with ordinance standards. All Member Rice asked on what use the 3/15/93 other elements parking spaces of the redevelopment plan would were calculated and if there would be adequate parking for restaurant use. parking was based on general retail use which would require eight spaces for the first 1,000 square feet of floor area, six spaces from 1,000 to 15,000 square feet and five spaces for each additional 1,000 square feet. require one space for each three seats which could impact future use.

The southerly building (formerly Bell real estate), also owned by Regis, is for sale. Mayor Richards then asked if staff had looked at the proposal relative to the master plan for the Grandview redevelopment area as to zoning and density. Planner Larsen said that regarding zoning the proposed use is compatible. The 1984-85 master plan for parking and overall reuse of the area considered the possibility to redevelop the three sites owned by Regis as one plan. step in, that does not appear to be feasible. redeveloped individually, the master plan would become somewhat meaningless. Planner Larsen responded that the site commonly Unless the City would If the three sites were sold and Member Rice asked if West 50th Street needs to be there, who uses it and what is required for building setback. Planner Larsen answered that, given the number of uses that will remain after this proposed redevelopment, the public street should be retained as it was never anticipated that it would be abandoned, only possibly relocated. frontage road and to areas west of Highway 100 and south of Eden Avenue. It also may serve as a short cut to Highway 100. commercial district, no setback is required and the building could be placed next to the curb. Traffic using West 50th Street to Arcadia is likely heading to the Because the property is zoned Member Smith said he was concerned about the location of the curb cut for entrance to the video store because of its proximity t0.Arcadi.a Avenue and the corresponding curb cut for the building to the south. Investors, commented that the curb cut could be moved slightly to the west. David Carlin, CSM Presentation bv ProDonent Chris Fox, Senior Vice President of Real Estate for Regis, spoke to the issues that were raised by Council.

Regarding the uses east of Arcadia, he said the old Both As to redeveloping all Regis properties Mr. Fox recalled that about five years ago Regis appeared before the Council and received preliminary approval for a redevelopment plan that would close the north half of Arcadia Avenue, combine three-fourths of the site and leave the bowling alley building as a storage facility. That plan involved building a large building on the east side of Arcadia. Mr. Fox explained that Regis chose not to proceed for various reasons. At that hearing, there were substantial interests, i.e. Pantry Restaurant, etc., who argued that the access to, including the traffic light on Vernon Avenue, needed to be maintained so that customers could go north on Interlachen Boulevard. At the same time staff had a concern that 3/15/93 128 emergency and maintenance vehicles be able to use West 50th Street to access Interlachen Boulevard. Although an important access, West 50th Street does not carry a tremendous amount of traffic. As to funeral home use, Mr. Fox said Washburn McReavy had indicated their peaking period would be 7:OO P.M. to 8:OO P.M. when visitations would occur. compliment the retail usage traffic in the area. the curb cut to the video store parking could be adjusted and would not affect the overall plan.

Mr. Carlin stated Blockbuster Video Tenants in the rebuilt bowling alley He said there is some Member Smith commented that he was concerned about the total parking requirements for this business area. Planner Larsen answered that parking must be considered from an overall viewpoint. The proposed plan under consideration meets Code and staff felt parking would be adequate for this site and also for the funeral home use east of Arcadia Avenue. He said what has not been factored in is the Bell real estate building because the status was not known. However, the two major uses would have adequate parking. I Member Paulus said she was concerned that signage for this "strip mall" would be overwhelming because of.the number of tenants. Planner Larsen responded that it would be doubtful that the City could impose greater restrictions on signs than what the current ordinance allows. Mayor Richards commented that the City has always talked about the redevelopment of this area as a package. said he felt the public sector has a role to play in this in addition to a regulatory role because this is a tax increment district. there may be need for other activities by the public sector to meet the demands that will be generated by the use of the property and that would result in enhancing the entire area. Although not troubled by the proposed land use, he He suggested that Member Smith said he concurred and in addition would like staff to present information on the traffic flow plan for this entire area, including the signalized intersection at Interlachenflernon.

SPECIAL COI" VOICED REGARDING PLACEMENT OF GARBAGE FOR PICKUP Gary Vierkant, Vierkant Disposal, commented that he wrote a letter to Council dated March 30, 1992, advising that many residents do not comply with the ordinance and continue to place their garbage at the curb for pickup. much cheaper it is to provide garbage pickup at the curb instead of from the garage as required by ordinance. At that time he had explained how He had asked that the ordinande be enforced. 3/15/93 .. 132 Mr. Vierkant alleged that licensed Edina haulers are soliciting customers by offering lower rates for curb set pickup. He stated that, not-only is this- against the ordinance, he has lost a percent of the market through this practice. He said he was told that the City does not have the manpower to enforce the ordinance. He stated if that was the case perhaps the ordinance requirement that garbage be picked up at the garage should eliminated. If the ordinance is not enforced, Mr. Vierkant stated that in 90 days he intended to notify his customers that he would give them an option of curb setting garbage and would adjust his prices accordingly so that he would be on the same economical ground with the other haulers. Mayor Richards asked Mr. Vierkant to furnish Sanitarian Velde with names and addresses of residents who had been told by other haulers that their rates would be reduced if they curb set garbage. He also told Mr. Vierkant that his license could be at risk if he promoted curbside pickup. Mr. Vierkant submitted that to be effective the ordinance should be focused on the hauler and not on the resident as it is currently.

PROPOSED LEGISLATION REGARDING ZONING AND SUBDIVISION REGUTATIONS DISCUSSED Member-Smith informed Council of proposed legislation that may affect local zoning and subdivision regulations. legislation is called H.F. 19 introduced by Representative Carruthers. In summary the bill would call for zoning ordinances and subdivision regulations to be coordinated with comprehensive plans. The origin of this came with the Metropolitan Land Planning Act in the late '70s. In the early '80s the law changed such that the zoning ordinance took precedence over the comprehensive plan. Apparently the sense of this legislation is to revert back to the way the land planning act was originally drafted. city such as capital improvement programs, zoning ordinances, subdivisions would have to follow the comprehensive plan. It would more affect rural cities in the metropolitan area that have large areas of unzoned, open or agricultural land. Assistant Manager Hughes said that All official controls adopted by the Assistant Manager Hughes mentioned that of greater interest may be legislation submitted by Representative Orfield. concerning metropolitan government. Council; it calls for all metropolitan agencies including the Metropolitan Airports Commission to be subservient to the Metropolitan Council. Representative Orfield is also proposing to resurrect a housing allocation plan of the Metropolitan Council from the late '70s and tie it to state funds including highway funds. Assistant Manger Hughes advised Council that he is sitting on an AMM committee that is tracking this legislation. understanding is that the bill has support of the House leadership.
