VIII. Chair And Member Comments
Commissioner Johnson said he enjoyed helping set up for Bike to Work Day and was curious how it went.
Commissioner Ahler said that every biker on W 50th St during Bike to Work Day was on the sidewalk
because they felt it was too dangerous to bike in the street. She met with the Mayor and he is on a
transportation committee for Mayors and is going to a national conference. She asked if he could bring back
some ideas or information for the ETC. They also discussed if it would be possible to get funding for
boulevard trees. She also said she was driving down Valley View Road where W 62nd St comes in and transit
buses are having a hard time turning there because of the design. Lastly, she said the EEC is looking for
volunteers to walk with them in the 4th of July parade.
Draft Minutes☒
Approved Minutes☐
Approved Date:
Commissioner Plumb-Smith asked who the city forester is and if there is a list of approved trees.
Commissioner Kane thanked Spack for their presentation. He also said that when biking, leaving Fred
Richards Park is dangerous and unsafe when crossing Parklawn. He also mentioned poor wayfinding along
the Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail.
Commissioner McCarthy said that W 66th St into Richfield looks great and thinks it would work well on
France Avenue. He also mentioned the relatively poor condition/lack of crosswalk markings in certain areas
in the Southdale District.
Commissioner Scherer said that construction on Sally Ln is going well and crews are doing a great job. He is
still trying to work with the school bus company to get pick up at his house and is willing to pay for the
service.
Commissioner Richman said she attended the Resilient Cities Workshop about climate change and worked
specifically in the Transportation group on climate change. She said there were some great ideas about EV
charging stations, right-of-way management for on-street parking, and the Greenest Region Compact from
the Chicago area. She thanked everyone who helped with Bike to Work Day. Construction is going well in
her neighborhood and the City and construction crew are very responsive. She requested that the City
contact Hennepin County about a resident who parks on Xerxes Ave and disrupts traffic flow, and asked
about the possibility of Transportation Commission-branded polos/shirts.
IX. Staff Comments

W 69th St and Parklawn Ave.

Description
Traffic Safety Report of June 25, 2019
July 18, 2019
Edina Transportation Commission
Nick Bauler, Traffic Safety Coordinator
Traffic Safety Report of June 25, 2019
Information / Background:
The Traffic Safety Committee (TSC) review of traffic safety matters occurred on June 25. The Traffic Safety
Coordinator, Police Lieutenant, City Engineer, Public Works Director, Transportation Planner and Assistant
City Planner were in attendance for this meeting. The Traffic Safety Specialist was not able to attend, but
was informed of the decisions and had no objections to the recommendations.
On each of the items, persons involved have been contacted and the staff recommendation has been
discussed with them. They were informed that if they disagree with the recommendation or have additional
facts to present, these comments can be included on the July 18 Edina Transportation Commission and the
August 7 City Council meeting agendas.
Section A: Items on which the Traffic Safety Committee recommends action
A1. Request to review parking near the entrance of Courtney Fields off Braemar Blvd
• There is a 150’ pedestrian path, between
Courtney Fields and Braemar Golf Course
where vehicles park.
• During afternoon and weekend baseball
games at Courtney, parking is utilized by
baseball players, parents and coaches.
• Parking restriction signs are in place where
parking is utilized.
• Resident is requesting enforcement based on
signs in place, improved signage or to
remove signage all together.
• Parking is utilized along the pedestrian path where EMS vehicles would not be able to access
Courtney from the east of the fields.
After review, staff recommends improving signage for parking restrictions as only
authorized vehicles are allowed on the pedestrian path that leads to Courtney Fields.
Map: Parking taking place during a Friday evening - 14
vehicles are parked in this photo
STAFF REPORT Page 2
Signage will also restrict vehicles driving into Courtney Fields to drop off or pick up
equipment.
A2. Request to add parking restriction signs on Spruce Rd
• A reconstructed home at 6205 Spruce is for
sale and contractors marked one-sided
parking along the north/south portion of
Spruce Rd, which is technically an alley.
• Parking is not allowed on alleys in Edina.
• The east/west portion of Spruce Rd is
measured at 17’ wide.
• No parking restriction signs are present on
Spruce Rd.
After review, staff recommends adding signs to restrict parking on both sides of Spruce Rd.
Given the width, emergency vehicles would need more space than would be available if
parking was utilized on one side.
A3. Request to make temporary on-street parking on W 51st St, west of France Ave permanent
• Parking restrictions were temporarily
removed in June 2018 to accommodate the
demand for parking during construction on
parking ramps near 50th & France.
• Parking on W 51st St has been utilized daily.
• ADT on W 51st St is 6,100.
• W 51st St has a width of 46’.
• Listed as item C1 in May 2019 Traffic Safety
Committee report as ETC recommended
further study as concerns of W 50th St
possibly receiving diverted traffic due to
parking on W 51st St.
After review, staff recommends making the on-
street parking on both sides of W 51st St permanent. Staff sites the width of the street
allows parking on both sides and this can lower vehicle speeds when parking is utilized.
With no reported crashes taking place since parking has been temporarily allowed, there is
no increased safety concern.

within the circle has not parking restriction signs)

temporary on street parking is allowed)
STAFF REPORT Page 3
Section B: Items on which the Traffic Safety Committee recommends no action
B1. Request to review parking restrictions on Xerxes Ave, west of YMCA
• Resident on the east side of Xerxes, north of
W 74th St is concerned with buses picking up
and dropping off children on the west side of
Xerxes Ave directly opposite of his driveway.
• Parking is restricted on both sides of Xerxes
Ave.
• Xerxes Ave and W 74th St (south of the
YMCA) have widths of 24’ and 18’,
respectively.
• The Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail runs
along the west side of Xerxes Ave.
• Resident wants buses to not park across
from his driveway.
• W 74th St was overlaid in June 2019.
After review, staff recommends no changes to parking restrictions on Xerxes Ave. After
working with the resident and EPD, the YMCA was informed buses will be allowed to pick
up and drop off kids on W 74th St as emergency services should not have an issue accessing
W 74th St and York Ter.
B2. Request to add stop signs for drivers exiting business onto Lincoln Dr
• Residents who walk along Lincoln notice
businesses do not have stop signs when
exiting onto Lincoln, and expressed concern
about the level of safety for pedestrians.
• A new shared-use path will be installed on
the east side of Lincoln Dr narrowing the
street by 12’
• There are five commercial driveways along
Lincoln Dr.
After review, staff recommends no changes. With
the addition of the new shared use path,
pedestrians will become separated from vehicles
and the street will become narrower leading to a
safer corridor. Stop signs at these locations would
need to be installed by those who manage the private properties.
Map: Xerxes Ave and W 74th St at Edina YMCA (note: the red
property is the residence that is concerned with bus pickup
and drop-off)
Map: Lincoln Dr businesses without stop signs
STAFF REPORT Page 4
B3. Request to add pedestrian restriction signs at the Browndale Ave bridge
• A resident who frequently uses the
Browndale Ave bridge is requesting a sign to
restrict pedestrians due to how narrow the
bridge already is and fear vehicles don’t yield
properly.
• The width on the bridge is 21.5’.
• ADT on Browndale Ave is 3,570
• A pedestrian path leading to the Country
Club neighborhood is located 235’ east of
Browndale Ave bridge entrance.
After review, staff recommends no changes. The Browndale Ave bridge is a public right-of-
way and pedestrians can’t be restricted from such areas. The Committee discussed and
dismissed the idea of adding a sign encouraging pedestrians to use the sidewalk that runs
to the east of the bridge.
B4. Request to add an “End School Speed Zone” sign on Tracy Ave
• An employee at Countryside Elementary
School requested to add an “End School
Speed Zone” sign for northbound traffic
passing the school.
• ADT on Tracy Ave is 3,970
• 85% speed is 33.6 mph.
• Per the MnMUTCD, no such sign is required
along with a new speed limit sign upon
exiting a school zone.
After review, staff recommends no changes. As a
speed limit sign is present for northbound traffic
past Benton Ave, this signifies as the end of the
school speed zone.
B5. Request for parking restriction signs along Wooddale Ave
• A resident is concerned when vehicles park
on the east side of Wooddale Ave near his
driveway during events at Edina Country
Club or St. Stephen’s Church, leading to
poor sight lines.
• Between 5105-5111 Wooddale (four homes)
there are seven driveway entrances/exits.
• Parking is allowed on the east side of
Wooddale Ave.
• Per City Code, on-street parking is
restricted within 5’ of any driveway.
After review, staff recommends no changes. Due to
the locations of the driveways, it is recommended for
residents to contact EPD for enforcement if vehicles
are parked within 5’ of a driveway.

layer is shown in orange)

STAFF REPORT Page 5
Section D: Other traffic safety items handled
D1. Resident was concerned with vehicle speeds on Division St, near their residence on Spur Rd. The
resident is new to the area and was curious of vehicle speeds. Upon collecting data, the 85% speed was 30.4
mph. Staff is content with these speeds and will continue to monitor.
D2. A submission was made regarding the condition of a pedestrian ramp at the intersection of Interlachen
Blvd and Vernon Ave. Public Works inspected this concern and the resident was informed the pedestrian
ramp will be reconstructed following the current road work taking place at this intersection.
D3. A resident submitted a concern for inadequate sight lines for southbound vehicles on Ayrshire Blvd at
Vernon Ave. The resident was requesting the trees to be trimmed back to help improve overall sight lines.
Edina Police’s Clearview Officer was notified of this concern to review proper sight lines.
D4. A resident submitted a request for a crosswalk over Sunnyside Rd at Curve Ave. Upon review, a
crosswalk was not warranted due to overall pedestrian crosses of 11 during the peak hour.
D5. Two different concerns were raised at the intersection of Interlachen Blvd and Vernon Ave which
included a broken sign and overall safety concerns during a project taking place at the intersection. A new
sign will be installed following the completion of the project and the safety concerns were inspected and the
construction crews were following the designed safety plans.
D6. A resident submitted a concern of a commercial dumpster being placed on Sunnyside Rd. This dumpster
was taking up a full lane of traffic so this concern was submitted to the Residential Redevelopment
Coordinator as this dumpster should not be placed on a public street. The concern has been mitigated.
D7. A submission was made of drivers not stopping at stop signs or driving in the wrong direction at the
intersection of W 62nd St at Valley View Rd. This concern was forwarded to the EPD for stop sign
enforcement.
D8. A resident contacted Traffic Safety regarding irregular backups on W 77th St traveling eastbound over
Highway 100. These backups were due to road work along W 77th St during the Pentagon Park
development project. The resident was informed the length of the closure and when it was reopened.
D9. A request was made for a temporary all-way stop at the intersection of Xerxes Ave at W 64th St. This
request was submitted due to increased vehicle delays coming from W 64th St while detoured traffic is
leading to further backups on Xerxes Ave. This concern was forwarded to MnDOT as they are overlooking
traffic patterns that are shifting during the France Ave bridge project.
D10. A resident was concerned with cut-thru traffic and vehicle speeds on Mendelssohn Ln. After collecting
vehicle data, there was an ADT of 60 and an 85% speed of 24.1 MPH. This data illustrates proper usage of
Mendelssohn Ln and no changes are recommended by staff.
D11. A resident was concerned with vehicles speeds on Vernon Ave near Chantrey Rd. The resident lives
adjacent to Vernon Ave and is concerned with the level of safety in the area especially with the speed limit
on Vernon being 40 mph. Hennepin County was contacted and noted that Vernon Ave has bike lanes and
sidewalks in this area. The County is satisfied with the current use of Vernon Ave, which is classified as a
minor arterial roadway.
D12. A concern was submitted regarding the location of a new fence built in the alley between York Ave
and Zenith Ave, south of W 58th St. This concern was sent to Edina Police’s Clearview Officer to review if
the fence is encroaching driver sight lines from the alley.
STAFF REPORT Page 6
D13. A concern was submitted for the lack of visibility of a stop sign for southbound traffic on Wooddale
Ave approaching W 54th St. Visibility concerns exist due to vegetation growing along the fence bordering the
Edina Country Club. Upon review, the vegetation has been trimmed back adequately to allow necessary
visibility of the stop sign.
