COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING COMMISSION
STAFF REPORT
MARCH 31, 1982
Z -82 -2 M.H. Haymaker. R -1 to PRD -3 Planned Residential
District. Generally located in the Southwest Quadrant of
Summit Avenue and Interlachen Boulevard.
REFER TO: Attached Preliminary Plans
The subject property measures approximately one half acre in area and is zoned
R -1 Single Family Dwelling District. This property is presently developed with
one single family dwelling. The subject property abuts single family dwellings
to the south and west. Acress the street to the east is a service station which
is presently being remodeled into an oil change and lubrication service. Across
the street to the north is a 17 unit apartment building.
Th proponent is requesting a rezoning to PRD -3 to facilitate the construction
of a five unit townhouse project. The existing single family dwelling would be
removed. Each unit would include two tuck under garage stalls. Three visitor
stalls would also be provided on the site. All access would come from Summit
Avenue which is presently one way southbound.
The proposed project would require several variances from the Zoning Ordinance.
The PRD section requires 35 foot setbacks for buildings from all property lines.
Thirty foot setbacks from Summit and Interlachen and 25 foot and 15 foot set-
backs from the south and west property lines respectively are proposed.
In addition, a variance from the 10 foot parking and drive aisle setback
requirement along the south property line would be required.
Recommendation
The Comprehensive Plan designates this site, the lots immediately to the south,
and the service station to the east for mixed uses. The Plan envisioned the
vacation of. Summit Avenue and the redevelopment of the above referenced
parcels with an office /multiple residential or commercial /multiple residential use.
The recent approvals for converting the service station to an oil change estab-
lishment with other retail uses apparently precludes the realization of this .
objective. Therefore, we must determine whether the proponent's plans repre-
sent a reasonable alternative to the original objective.
In our view, the proposed rezoning responds to the intent of the Comprehensive
Plan of providing medium density residential housing in close proximity to the
City's commercial districts. We believe that the mass of the proposed buildings
is generally consistent with the surroundings and appears to fit comfortably
on the site. We believe the building setback variances are warranted in that
--they- approximate the single-family dwelling setbacks -in -the area.
We would recommend some relatively minor modifications to the preliminary plans.
-� First, we recommend that the setback of the driveway on the south side should
be increased to at least five feet to permit proper. landscaping. Secondly, we
Z -82 -2 M. H. Haymaker
March 31, 1982
Page 2
recommend that the grade on the east and north sides should be increased to
lower the perceived heights of the structures: At present, they appear some-
what out of scale with sourrounding building heights.
With these modifications, we recommend preliminary rezoning approval. It
is understood that final approval will be conditioned on an acceptable overall
development plan and a subdivision.

Edina, Minn. 55435
Dear Jim,
Thank you for.your letter of..May 12, 1982 in which you referred to
our conversation in your office. Again it seems you suggest a very
unrealistic.valuation followed by what appears to be an ultimatum.
In paragraph #4 of your letter you stated "I do not know of any
land in that area that is sold for more than $ .90 a square foot.. ".
Frankly, Jim, we do not know how extensive your research has been
or how recently-At was conducted. If you are sincere about the
$ .90 per square foot figure, we will offer two options based on
your suggested price:
OPTION #1
Evanson sells Santrizos subject property ( Paragraph #4 of your
letter) for $ .90 per square foot.
Santrizos sells Evanson lots #2 & #3 in "Marthe Woods Hill Addition"
for the equal amount of $ .90 per square foot.
Evanson will dedicate lot #3 as an "out lot" for the benefit of
the neighborhood as a nature area for all to enjoy':
OPTION #2:
Santrizos sells Evanson Lot #2 for $ .90 per square foot.
Evanson sells their subject property to Santrizos for an equal
valuation of $ .90 per square.'foot.
Evanson applies their proceeds to defray the cost of the assess-
ments levied against the Westerly property owners.
Both of these options ring of sarcasm based on such a ludicrous
appraisal of area values. We feel we are being asked to give up
amenities that are not allowed for in ANY appraisal. Therefore,
we offer a third option which indeed, may be more realistic.
OPTION #3:
Santizos establishes a per square foot value on their lots. Evanson
has the option to purchase one of the lots at that value, or to
sell their property to Santrizos at ithat value. This would insure
an equal exchange of values. What could be more fair ??
f
After reading paragraph #5-of your letter.,. a question immediately
popped into my mind. How in the namevgood conciounce could the City
of Edina condemn the Evanson family property and in turn give °it —
to the Santrizos family!-The implications of this solution are
truly frightening.
Paragraph #6 of your letter seems reasonable. We do not care how, t.
or by whom the area value is determined, as long as we have a
buy /sell option on one of the Santrizos lots at an equal valuation.
In summary, Jim, let us.share a couple of thoughts with you. With
a perfectly good road serving three neighbors, with the recent
installation of a $3000.00 well and a lovely view, we are not
overjoyed with the proposed development. Being realistic, we knew
the day would come. What remains for us to do is to resolve this
matter in a fair and businesslike manner. To demonstrate our
optimism in your sicerity for a fair settlement, we have ignored
what we construe to be veiled threats and have kept our attorney
out of the matter.to date.
Sincerely,
Roger _. Evanson

Dear Roger:
May 12, 1982
rr
I appreciated the opportunity to talk with you about
the problem in connection with the developments, and thus the
assessments on Marth Road.
OF COUNSEL
RICHARD D. WILSON
ROBERT E.2ECK
It is my understanding that you have added the total
of the assessments plus the connection charge and have estimated
your cost at about $13,000,and that is what you are asking for
from the Santrizos family.
What we are essentially interested in, of course, is buying
the two tracts of land that are in what will be the right -of -way.
It seems to me on the west side we are talking about a
strip that is 5 feet wide and approximately 148.6 long, for 743
square feet, and on the east side we are talking about a strip 10
feet wide and 148.6 feet 1 °ong,`for 1480 square feet. That would
give us 2223 square feet. There is also the footage to complete the
Hanson cul -de -sac of approximately 100 square feet. I do not know
of any land in that area that is sold for more than $.90 a square
foot and would thus suggest that we pay to you the sum of $2,500
for that land and everyone pay their own assessments as everyone
will benefit from the improvements.
If that is not acceptable I would suggest that we appear
at the May 17th Council meeting and urge that the improvements
be approved and that the Cguncil direct the attorney to start
condemnation Rroceedi and to then a ermine how the costs of
tat condemnation would be spread against the two parcels and
proceed from there.
Ofe

Wc;L.).
Mr. Roger Evanson
&41
May 12, 1982
Another way to do it would be to suggest that we obtain
several different appraisals. We would get one and you would ` -'- ""
get one and the two appraisers could name a third appraiser and
agree that those figures would be totaled and.then divided by
3 and that would be the price to be paid. We +would then pay
that amount to you for the land, and we would proceed.
,._.,In that way it would save Commissioner's expenses, attorneys
fees;-court costs and similar expenses that would be an expens {e to
both of us.
This would do it faster and would do it much more economically
from everyones standpoint.
I do not know the City's attitude as to how they would treat
the cost of that acquisition, including the fees and expenses. It
would be my assumption that they would determine the cost of acquiring
the westerly five feet and assess it against the westerly properties
and obtain the cost of the easterly property and assess it against
the easterly properties.
I would appreciate your thoughts.

REQUEST R--2 to PRD-2
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING COMMISSION
STAFF REPORT
APRIL 28, 1982
Z -82 -3 Jack Helms. R -2 Two Family Dwelling District to
PRD -2 Planned Residential District. Generally
located south of Vernon Avenue and east of Vernon
Court.
Refer To: Attached site plan and elevation schematic, and attached
Crosstown Hills subdivision.
The subject property measures approximately 46,000 square feet in area and
is zoned R -2 Two Family Dwelling District. The subject property is composed
of two lots that were platted (and zoned R -2) in 1979. This plat, which was
called Crosstown Hills, included three R -2 lots. An existing building on Lot
3 is currently being retrofitted into a double bungalow. This building is
located immediately southwesterly of the subject property. Across Vernon
Avenue to the north are the Hansen /Martinson townhouses, Fountainwoods
Apartments and the Habitat.
The proponent is requesting a rezoning to PRD -2 Planned Residential District.
A preliminary site plan has been submitted which illustrates a five unit town-
house development of the property. These units would be served by a common
drive from Vernon Avenue. The units would back into the hillside which
slopes from east to west across the site. Two enclosed garage stalls per
unit and surface parking in the driveway areas are proposed. In addition
to the site plan, the proponent has-submitted conceptual elevation drawings
for your review.
The proposal would require setback variances. Thirty -five foot building
setbacks are required from all property lines. A 20 foot setback from Vernon
Avenue and 10 foot setbacks from the east and southwest property lines are
requested.
Although a preliminary plat has not been submitted, the proponent states an
intent to propose a townhouse style plat. This plat will be submitted in
conjunction with final rezoning approval.
Recommendation
The subject property is designated for low density attached residential by
the Comprehensive Plan. The type and density of the use (i.e. five units /acre)
conform to the Plan. In our view, the proposed project represents an excellent
use for this parcel and should complement the townhouse and apartment develop-
ments to the north.
Our only reservation regarding this project has been its relationship to the
remodeled dwelling which is located on the abutting lot. In our view, the
proposed plan should not adversely impact this dwelling. The proponent
reports that the owner of this dwelling has approved the proposed plans.
Community Development and Planning Commission

Page 2 ,
As noted previously, several setback variances will be required. We believe
that the side yard variances are appropriate in that they approximate required
setbacks for double bungalows. We request, however, that the Vernon Avenue
setback should be increased to a uniform setback of at least 30 feet. Likewise,
we request that the drive aisle setback on the west side should be increased
to 10 feet.
With these modifications, Staff recommends preliminary rezoning approval with
the following conditions:
1) Final rezoning is contingent on an acceptable overall development plan.
2) Final platting
3) Subdivision dedication based on one new dwelling unit.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING COMMISSION
STAFF REPORT
APRIL 28, 1982
S -82 -1 Corkins Addition. Generally located in the Southeast Quadrant of
Schaefer and Interlachen.
Refer To: Attached preliminary plat and Blake- Schaefer roadway plan
The subject property measures approximately 130, 000 square feet and is zoned
R -1 Single Family Dwelling District. The property is improved with one single
family dwelling which fronts on Interlachen Boulevard, but gains its access from
,Schaefer Road. The property is characterized by level topography and is heavily
wooded.
The proponent is requesting a three lot subdivision of the subject property. ti
Lot 1 would measure 82,290 square feet and would be retained for the existing
dwelling. Lots 2 and 3 would be new buildable lots and 'would measure 21,641
square feet and 26,065 square feet respectively. Both lots would front on
Schaefer Road. The unusual configuration of Lot 2 is caused by an existing
swimming pool on Lot 1.
The subject property would have been affected by the Blake- Schaefer roadway
plans prepared several years ago. According to these plans, a roadway would
have been constructed through this property to Schaefer Road. Most of you
will recall that this roadway plan was reviewed last year in connection with the
Oak Ponds subdivision. At that time, it was agreed that a roadway to Schaefer
was not needed. The attached graphic illustrates the road plan which was agreed
to last year.
Recommendation
In our view, the proposal represents a logical and expected division of the
subject property. The proposed lot sizes certainly exceed ordinance requirements
and are consistent with the lot to the south and the lots approved for the Oak
Pond subdivision to the southeast. The issue of a right of way to Schaefer was
resolved last year and, in our view, no longer affects this property.
We are somewhat concerned with the shape of Lot 2. The dwelling to the south
of the subject property maintains an 80 foot setback from Schaefer Road. There-
fore, the dwellings on the new lots must maintain 80 foot setbacks. This require-
ment, coupled with the 25 foot rear yard requirement, results in a smaller building
site for Lot 2 than may be realized. However, about 60 feet of "buildable depth"
would remain on Lot 2 which certainly should be adequate for even a very large
dwelling. Nevertheless, Staff wishes to stress that we will not recommend approval
of a variance from the front yard requirement for Lot 2. Therefore, the developer
must realize that this dwelling may be located closer to the swimming pool on Lot 1
than may be desired. If this is a concern, the Commission may wish to consider
only a two lot subdivision.
Staff. recommends approval of the proposed subdivision subject to the above comments
and subject to subdivision dedication.

Mortgage Revenue Bond Program ,
ff 0-.1
As you will recall, the City Council approved a Housing Plan for the City
at its April 18, 1982, meeting. The Housing Plan documented the City's
existing housing situation and needs, and set forth goals, objectives, and
programs designed to meet those needs. The attached Mortgage Revenue
Bond Program provides a detailed description of the Program for the Win-
field- Laukka -Edina Condominium project. If approved by the City Council,
this program and plan would be submitted to the Housing Finance Agency
to support a request for a bonding allocation of about $7,000,000. The proceeds
of the bond issue would be used to provide lower cost mortgages for the
moderate income units in Phase I of the Edinborough development..
GH:jr
PROGRAM FOR THE FINANCING
OF A MULTIFAMILY HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
Pursuant to the Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C (the
"Act "), the City of Edina (the "City ") has been authorized to
develop and administer programs of multifamily housing devel-
opments under the circumstances and within the limitations
set forth in the Act. Minnesota Statutes, Section 462C.07
provides that such programs for multifamily housing devel-
opments may be financed by revenue.bonds issued by the City.
The City has received a proposal from the York -Edina
Partnership (the "Partnership ") that, pursuant to the author-
ity found in the Act, the City approve a program providing
for the issuance of revenue bonds the proceeds of which would
be used to make or purchase low- interest -rate mortgage loans
made to purchasers of condominium units constructed by the
Partnership within Southeast Edina Redevelopment Project, a
redevelopment project area established pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes, Chapter 462. The land upon which the units will be
constructed is owned by the Housing and Redevelopment
Authority of the City of Edina (the "HRA "). Thy HRA will
make certain improvements to the land and the land will be
conveyed to the Partnership on the condition that the condo-
minium units be constructed and that a nonprofit corporation
be given an equity interest in certain of the units. A
portion of the costs of improvement of the land has been
financed by an issue of the City's general obligation tax
increment bonds in the approximate amount of $2,200,000. It
is expected the City will continue to issue tax increment
bonds to pay for public redevelopment costs in connection
with the project area.
The City, in establishing this multifamily housing
program (the "Program "), has considered the information
contained in the City's 462C Housing Plan adopted ,
(the "Housing Plan "), including particularly (i) the
availability and affordability of other government housing
programs; (ii) the availability and affordability of private
market financing for the construction of multifamily housing
units; (iii) an analysis of population and employment trends
and projections of future population trends and future
employment needs; (iv) the recent housing trends and future
housing needs of the City; and (v) an analysis of how the
Program will meet the needs of persons and families residing
and expected to reside in the City.
The City has further considered (i) the amount, timing
and sale of bonds to finance the estimated costs of the
condominium units, to fund the appropriate reserves and to
pay the cost of issuance; (ii) the method of monitoring the
implementation of the Program to ensure compliance with the
City's Housing Plan and its objectives; (iii) the method of
administering, servicing and supervising the Program; (iv)
the cost to the City, including future administrative
expenses; (v) the restrictions on the-multifamily development
to be financed under the Program; and (vi) certain other
limitations.
The development will be constructed and financed pur-
suant to subdivision 3 of Section 462C.05 of the Act.

Subsection B. Program for Financing the Project. It is

contract and enter into advance commitments to acquire,
Mortgage Loans initially originated and owned by Originators
with respect to Housing Units located within the Project at
the prices and upon such other terms and conditions as are
set forth herein and' as may be agreed upon in writing between
the City and the Originators. To do so, the City expects to
make and execute contracts with Originators for the origina-
tion of Mortgage Loans and the sale of such Loans to the
City. The City further expects to make and execute a
contract with a Program Administrator for the monitoring of
origination of the Mortgage Loans, for the servicing of the
Mortgage Loans and to pay the reasonable value of services
rendered under such contracts. In carrying out this Program,
the City or the HRA may exercise, within the corporate limits
of the City, any of the powers the Minnesota Housing Finance
Agency is authorized to exercise under the provisions of
Minnesota Statutes, Section 462A.
The City will hire no additional staff for the adminis-
tration of this Program, but intends to enter into the con-
tract with the Program Administrator who will administer the
Mortgage Loans with respect to the guidelines expressed in
this Program and who will service the Mortgage Loans. The
City also intends to select and contract with a trustee
experienced in trust matters to administrate the Bonds sold
to finance this Program by maintaining the various funds and
accounts created by the Program documents and by making Bond
payments, as they become due, to bondholders from Program
generated revenues.
-4-
In servicing the Mortgage Loans and monitoring the
origination of Mortgage Loans for compliance with the
requirements of this Program, the Program Administrator will,
among other things, (i) review the Mortgage Loan documents
prior to the sale of a Mortgage Loan to the City for compli-
ance with the requirements of the City and the requirements
expressed in the Program documents; (ii) service the Mortgage
Loans and submit monthly payments received from Mortgagors to
the Trustee; (iii) collect information with respect to the
Origination of Mortgage Loans and submit monthly reports to
the City and the HRA staff setting forth the income levels of
persons receiving Mortgage Loans, the size and type of
Housing Units purchased with Mortgage Loan proceeds and such
other information regarding the origination of the Program as
the City and /or the HRA may reasonably require; (iv) make
reports to the City and /or the HRA with respect to servicing
Mortgage Loans, including collection of monthly payments from
Mortgagors, delinquent collections, foreclosure proceedings
and any other related activities; (v) handle claims for
private mortgage insurance and hazard insurance in the event
of foreclosure losses and file claims for mortgage the
insurance; and (vi) mainz;ain contact with the City, the HRA,
the Trustee and rating agencies with respect to the Mortgage
Loans.
Insofar as the City will be contracting with under-
writers, legal counsel, the Program Administrator, Origina-
tors and a Trustee, all of whom will be reimbursed from Bond
proceeds and revenues generated by the Program, it is not
expected that additional staff costs or administrative costs
need be paid from the City's budget with respect to the
Origination of and maintenance of the Mortgage Loans.
Subsection C. City Contributions to the Project. In
addition to the proposal of the City to create this Mortgage
Loan purchase program, the City proposes to enter into an
equity participation plan with respect to certain of the
Housing Units in the Project. The equity participation plan
provides that the City issue general obligation tax increment
bonds to pay for redevelopment costs in-connection with the
Project and to apply the cost savings from such redevelopment
costs into lower Housing Unit purchase prices.
The HRA currently owns a site of approximately 25 acres
within the Southeast Edina Redevelopment area, and the City
has issued approximately $2,200,000 in general obligation tax
increment bonds to pay for the cost of redeveloping a portion
of the site on which Housing Units are to be constructed.
Under a redevelopment contract signed with the development
team for Phase I of the Project and the Foundation,
-5-
the City will transfer the Land to the Foundation, a
nonprofit corporation created to administrate development of
the Project. The Foundation will convey portions of the Land
to the developers as portions of the Project are completed.
The developers, in turn, will transfer to the Foundation - a
portion of ownership on certain of the Housing Units in
proportionate amounts equal to the sums contributed by the
City. It is anticipated that approximately two - thirds of the
150 to 170 of the Housing Units to be constructed under Phase
I of the development will be subject to portional ownership
by the Foundation. The remaining interest in the Housing
Units will be sold to first -time home buyers. It is expected
that an interest of approximately $25,000 per unit on two -
thirds of the Phase I Housing Units will be transferred to
the Foundation, reducing the remaining interest available for
purchase by Mortgagors by approximately the same amount.
The amount of ownership by the Foundation in such
Housing Units is to be based upon the Mortgagor's income
available for housing costs. It is expected that the Foun-
dation will review applications by prospective purchasers
wishing to participate _n the equity contribution plan, and
determine the amount of equity contribution and eligibility
for such applicants as applications for purchase of Housing
Units are received. Any sale proceeds from the resale of
Housing Units initially financed with proceeds of a Shared
Equity Mortgage Loan will be allocated on a proportional
basis between the Mortgagor and the Foundation according to
the original allocation of equity between such parties when
the Housing Unit was originally sold.
Subsection D. Standards and Requirements Relating to
the Mortgage Loans to Be Financed Pursuant to the Program.
The following standards and requirements shall apply with
respect to the mortgage loans made under the Program:
(1) Substantially all of the proceeds of the sale
of the Bonds will be used to provide funds for the
acquisition of Housing Units by Mortgagors.

the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency for the City.
(3) For the first six months after proceeds of any
bond issue are available to make or purchase Mortgage
Loans, 80% of the funds provided for the purchase of
Mortgage Loans may be made or committed only to

paragraph (2). For the first 12 months after proceeds
of any bond issue are available to make or purchase
mortgage loans, 50% of the funds provided for the
purchase of Mortgage Loans may be made or committed only

of a Shared Equity Mortgage Loan from a Mortgagor by any
other person or persons shall be permitted only if the

using the HUD median family income and the Agency income
limits.in effect at the time of the assumption.
(5) The purchase price of a Housing Unit under
Phase I may not exceed the lesser of three times the
Adjusted Gross Income limit set forth in paragraph (2)
or 90% of the average area purchase price for residen-
tial housing computed as provided under the Proposed
Treasury Regulations or any final regulations promul-
gated under Section 103A of the Internal Revenue Code of
1954, as amended (unless the Housing Unit is within a
"Target Area," in which case where it may be 110% of the
average area purchase price for residential housing).
(6) All Mortgage Loans may be made and sold to the
City and serviced by one Originator to be selected by
the City if the City determines that it is necessary to
select only one Originator with respect to the Program.
(7) Originator shall accept and process applica-
tions- for-Mortgage Loans on a nondiscriminatory, "first -
come, first served" basis, subject to the other provi-
sions of the Program, and will not arbitrarily reject an
application for a mortgage loan fora Housing Unit
within a specified geographic area because of the loca-
tion and /or age of the property, or, in the case of a
proposed Mortgagor, arbitrarily vary the terms of a loan
-7-
or the application procedures therefor because of race,
color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, marital
status, age or status with regard to public assistance
or disability.
(8) The Mortgagor of each Housing Unit must be a
first -time homebuyer, must be the owner of such Housing
Unit and must occupy such Housing Unit as his principal

purchase price or the appraised value of such Housing
Unit. If such Mortgagor obtains FHA insurance or a VA
guarantee to comply with the preceding sentence, such
insurance or guaranty must be maintained for the entire
period during which the City owns an interest in the
Mortgage Loan.
(11) The difference between the interest rate on
Mortgage Loans and the interest rates on the Bonds

of issuing the Bonds, the City's ongoing costs for the
administration of all housing programs, fees of servic-
ing and administering the Mortgage Loans and trustee and
paying agent fees.
Subsection E. Evidence of Compliance. The City may

the ability and intention of the Partnership to complete the
Project or the phase being financed, and evidence satis-
factory to the City of compliance with the standards and
requirements set forth herein; and in connection therewith,
the City or its representatives may inspect the relevant

Servicer in order to confirm such ability, intention and
compliance.
INIM

Last year, Robert, age 14, began to understand that he wasn't
responsible for his parents' divorce. Todd, age 16, kicked a
shoplifting habit he'd had for four years. Sharon, age 17, was
able for the first time to express the turmoil she had felt since
a sexual experience with her father ten years before. There are
hundreds of Roberts and Todds. and Sharons who had similar exper-
iences last year, and there will be hundreds more this year.
These young people and their families are getting help from
Storefront /Youth Action, a non - profit agency that serves Bloomington,
Richfield, Edina and Eden Prairie.
Families today experience pressures unheard of only two generations
ago. The resulting problems invade every institution and system in
our community. Government statistics say twenty percent of all
families suffer from problems with alcohol or other drugs, the State
of Minnesota reported 10,493 people under the age of 17 were appre-
hended last year for vandalizing or shoplifting, costing an estima-
ted $300,000,000 to State citizens, and Child Protection Services
statistics say 2,242 cases of physical or sexual abuse of children
were reported in Hennepin County last year. Parents struggle.to
raise teenagers in a society where the values often bear no resem-
blance to their own, and kids mask their inability to communicate
by using drugs.
Storefront /Youth Action provides prevention, education and counseling
services to young people and their families in the South Hennepin County
area. This year we will celebrate our tenth anniversary. Our purpose -
to help the citizens of this area cope with the problems affecting their
lives now, and give them the skills and tools with which to solve their
problems in the future.
Storefront /Youth Action is governed by a Board of Directors represent-
ing the communities we serve., and _providing expertise-in the-areas of..
business, city government, child care, youth counseling, parenting
skills and community services. Our staff is experienced, . professional
and competent. All counselors have a minimum of two years experience
in their fields, have received additional training after completing
four year degrees, and many have advanced degrees. Our Executive
Director, Steve Lepinski, has been guiding the agency's growth for the
past seven years, and is presently completing a Master's program in
Mental Health Administration.

This year, Storefront /Youth Action will operate with a budget of
$555,000. Of this, 6% will come from United Way, 15% will come from
the cities we serve, 30% will come from school districts in those
cities, 5% will be generated.by the agency itself, 13%.-will come from
Hennepin County, 10% from State and Federal governments, 3% will be
donated in the form of services and equipment, and the rest, about
18% or $100,000, will be raised from Corporations, foundations and
individual contributions.
The drug boom and generation gap of the early 170's gave birth to
Storefront /Youth Action. "In 1974, 80 families came to us.for help.
This year, 800 families will receive counseling and 10,000 more sub-
urban citizens will benefit from our educational programs. Our
counseling staff has grown in size and competency to meet this need.
Storefront /Youth Action programs are in every school, and referrals are
made by police officers, educators, counselors, clergy, ,public health
officials, parents and,kids themselves, in each of the four communities.
Storefront /Youth Action programs evolved as needs became apparent.
Awareness of the growing problem,of child abuse, for instance, caused
concern about the lasting effects of abuse on adolescent victims. Last
year, 126 adolescents received help in a unique program specially designed
for young victims of sexual or other physical abuse. They increased their
self concept, learned to accept what had occurred, and explored feelings
of guilt and shame. Their families, often angry, embarrassed and uncooper-
ative, were helped to see the value in dealing with bottled up emotions.
Last year, police and court authorities referred 206 young people to
Storefront /Youth Action's Property Offender Program instead of Juvenile
Court. Teenagers caught shoplifting, burglarizing or vandalizing property
received individual, group and family counseling, and learned from media
presentations about the impact property crimes have on their community.
Juvenile Court authorities explained the consequences of future criminal_
behavior, and parents of the young offenders were helped to look at the
part they could play in avoiding recurrances.. Eighty -four percent of
these young people have had no further involvement with the law. Based
on current estimates, taxpayers have saved,a possible $21000,000..
Chemical use was a problem.for 450 young ,clients of Storefront /Youth Action
last year, and 75 families attended our three week Chemical Orientation
Program to learn about dependency. Each family watched films and lectures,
received.individual counseling and-participated in an assessment to deter-
mine if more help was needed.
Edina and Richfield elementary school children are learning about putdowns
and peer pressure each week, participating in Project CHarlie, our drug

specialists have trained people from 450 schools around the country to
use the program. Evaluations are confirming its value, as parents,.
teachers and students respond enthusiastically to surveys. University
of Minnesota researchers are implementing a recently funded formal
evaluation to be completed in mid 1983.
Storefront /Youth Action has a unique relationship with the school districts
of Edina and Richfield, who contract with us to provide services. Last
year, 200 Edina "students were referred to the Chemical Health Coordinator,
provided by this agency, who also helped implement parent education pro-
grams, provided education for senior citizens, made presentations to
health classes, reviewed school curriculum and provided in- service train-
ing for school staff. The Junior High Prevention Social Worker, another
contracted position with Edina Schools, was a friend in need to 7th, 8th
and 9th grade students who seemed lonely, withdrawn or uninterested in
school, knowing that these are the youngsters who find comfort in drugs
later on.
Storefront /Youth Action is a community agency, offering residents an
opportunity to confront and solve problems that otherwise might remain
just under the surface. We are an advocate for families in every insti-
tution of each city, providing a clear picture of today's kids - the
problems they face and the solutions they seek. By continuing to provide
this service, Storefront /Youth Action will give 130 young victims of incest
or battering the help they need this year to cope with the future. Two
hundred and twenty five teenagers will be diverted from the criminal
justice system. Eight hundred families will receive professional, competent
and constructive help, enabling them to solve problems and learn skills for
the future, and each resident will benefit from a safer, healthier, more
caring community.
We need your support. Nothing is more important for the survival of our
society than to have each generation of young people mature into a respon-
sible, productive and caring generation of adults. Please join with us to
make that happen.

TO: Kenneth Rosland
FROM: Gordon Hughes
SUBJECT: Zoning Status of Closed Public Schools
YE E
You have requested the Planning Department to respond to various concerns
regarding the effect of the Zoning Ordinance on the re -use of school buildings.
This request was prompted by the proposed leasing of space in Edina East
to a "for profit" music studio. To date, we have consented to non - profit
tenants, private schools, and so forth, but have not allowed "for profit"
ventures.
Current Ordinance
Public school buildings are located in the R -1 Single Family Dwelling District.
This zone has historically been a multi - purpose district as well as a "holding
zone" for properties recognized as having a higher potential. The following
principal and accessory uses are allowed in the R -1 district: .
A. Principal Uses.
1. Single family dwellings.
2. Elementary, junior high and senior high schools having a regular
course of study accredited by the State Department of Education.
3. Civic and cultural institutions.
4. Recreational facilities.
5. Religious institutions.
6. Utility facilities.
B. Accessory Uses.
1. Private garages.
2. Greenhouses, garden houses and summer homes.
3. Tool houses and sheds.
4. Clubhouses and other related structures on the grounds of
golf clubs and tennis clubs.
S. Golf driving ranges.
6. Swimming pools and tennis courts.
7. Convents, seminaries, monasteries and nunneries; rectories,
parsonages and parish houses.
8. Living quarters of persons employed on the premises.
9. Customary home occupations.
10. Private schools, nurseries and day care centers.
--- -- - -11 -. - Signs.
Other uses which may be considered for closed schools are not presently
allowed in the R -1 district. For example, business and professional offices
Memo - Kenneth Rosland
May 14, 1982
Page 2
are limited to office, commercial and industrial zones. Schools for teaching
music, dance, and business vocations are limited to commercial zones.
In addition to closed schools, other allowed uses in the R -1 district are be-
coming difficult to manage and regulate within the confines of the ordinance.
Religious institutions are the most notable examples. As you know, some of
the most controversial issues before the Council and Board of Appeals have
been the construction or expansion of churches in residential settings.
Alternatives
The following alternatives are possible:
1. Expand Permitted Principal and Accessory Uses in R -1.
We could simply allow additional uses such as offices, music schools,
etc. in the R -1 zone. This alternative has the advantage of sim-
plicity, but does not provide for public input or adequate control.
2. Rezone Schools to Another Existing Zoning District.
We could rezone all or portions of a school to an office or commercial
district. This is -,imple but would likely meet strong neighborhood
opposition, may be considered a spot zoning, and would cause many
non - conforming features.
3. Adopt Conditional Use Permit System for Schools.
We could provide a system of conditional use permits-for re -uses
of school buildings. Conditions would be defined. which. must be
satisfied prior to permit issuance. This alternative provides maximum
control but is somewhat cumbersome and presents a system which
has historically been resisted in the City. In addition, this alter-
native would respond to the closed school problems but not to the
religious institution problems noted earlier.
4. Adopt a New Institutional Zone.
We could provide a new zoning district for schools, churches,
government buildings, utility buildings and so forth. This alter-
native would address the problems caused by institutional uses
located in residential settings. Some of the office and non - profit
uses discussed earlier could then be allowed as accessory uses within
principal uses. This alternative suffers from lack of control in that
accessory uses would be allowed "by right" rather than permit. .
5. Adopt an Institutional Zone With Conditional Use Permits Required
for Certain Uses.
This alternative blends alternatives three and four. It would provide
for neighborhood input, and would address all problem areas including
churches. This alternative suffers from the same problems as alter-
native three.
6. No Changes.
Under this alternative, no additional uses would be allowed in closed
schools. Also, under a literal reading of the present ordinance,
many of the existing non - profit tenants are in violation.
Memo- Kenneth Rosland
' May 14, 1982
Page 3
Recommended Alternative
In our view, the R -1 district has served us well during Edina's growth
years. However, it now seems desirable-to distinguish institutional uses
from other uses in the R -1 district in order to promote the basic philo-
sophy that single family dwellings are the dominant use in the City and
should be afforded maximum protection. We would, therefore, recommend
as a minimum that a separate Institutional zone should be established.
We, would recommend this even if the immediate issue with the closed schools
did not exist.
The second part of the equation is more difficult to assess - i.e. conditional
use permits. As noted earlier, the City has generally been reluctant to
implement such a system because: 1) It requires additional staff time
for administration, enforcement, and documentation. 2) It can be criticized
and challenged for unequal or arbitrary treatment of properties with similar
conditions and 3) It is a "quasi- judicial" act rather than a legislative act
which thus may be subject to closer scrutiny by the courts.
Despite the above concerns, we believe that a conditional use system may be
appropriate in the case of institutional buildings, such as schools, which are
temporarily vacant or underutilized, but which will be retained for future
public use. Such a system would protect a substantial public investment
which could become a nuisance if allowed to stand vacant. At the same time,'
surrounding neighborhoods would be protected from incompatible uses and
would be afforded the opportunity to participate in the decision making pro-
cess. The conditional use system could be limited to school buildings or
extended to other institutional buildings such as churches which may wish to
establish seminaries, counseling services, and so forth.
We believe the conditional use system should be allowed only for institutional
buildings which continue to be owned by the public or a religious institution.
If it is decided that a building should not be retained, then the property should
be rezoned to another appropriate zoning district.
Ordinance Amendment
Conditional use permits are acted on much like a rezoning. Applications are
reviewed by the Planning Commission and decided by the Council at a public
hearing. Conditions are established by ordinance which must be satisfied
prior to the grant of a permit. If the conditions are satisfied, the permit
must be granted.
Although it is premature to describe the ordinance in detail, the following
preliminary list of principal uses, accessory uses, and conditional uses may
assist in evaluating a new amendment.

Cnnrlusinn
Any amendment to the Zoning Ordinance must be referred to the Community
Development and Planning Commission. Prior to submitting a proposed amend-
ment to the Commission on June 2, we request Council direction regarding
the alternatives listed above.
We are frankly reluctant to recommend a conditional use. system. However,
if the Council desires to retain control over the use of various neighborhood
based institutions, avoid a "permanent" rezoning of such properties, and
provide for maximum flexibility, then we cannot propose any other alternative.
Lastly, we have been unable to discuss the recommended alternative with
Mr. Erickson. His input will be critical in drafting an ordinance amendment.

April, 1982
This is the first issue of a regular newsletter that Storefront /Youth Action will send out quarterly. The newsletter is for
people like you who have expressed interest in the agency or provided support in the past. Storefront /Youth Action
has a broad funding base. Cities, schools, county, state, corporations, foundations, individuals and the United Way all
provide financial support. In addition, a wide variety of services are offered —youth and family counseling, drug
assessments, property offender program, adolescent abuse program and Project CHarlie prevention programs.
Therefore, it is important to us that you are informed about what is happening at Storefront /Youth Action.
The format we have chosen for our newsletter is a brief one -page update focusing on one program with each issue.
This issue highlights our program for abused adolescents, a timely concern given recent media coverage of this
problem.
Any questions, concerns, or suggestions regarding the newsletter or agency programs can be directed to me or to the
Executive Director, Steve Lepinski. Thank you for your interest in the agency.
ADOLESCENT VICTIM COUNSELING. PROGRAM
Sincerely,
Ed Orenstein, President of the Board
A high school counselor called Storefront /Youth Action when one of her students hinted of a sexual relationship with
her father. To protect her identity, we will call this young woman Ann. Her story is incredibly tragic.
Ann was sixteen years old and had been sexually abused by all the men in her family since the age of two years. She
had been victimized by her grandfather, father, stepfather, an uncle and two older brothers. Ann's view of herself was
that she had no rights or control over her own life. She had concluded that her body was all she had to offer in a
relationship with a man. She equated closeness with being sexual. As a result, she was promiscuous and was
involved with a pimp who was "grooming" her for prostitution.
Ann participated in individual and group counseling with the Adolescent Victim Counseling Program (AVCP) for
almost one year. She made contracts with her counselor regarding her sexual behavior, her school attendance, drug
use, etc. A major goal of her therapy was to increase her self- esteem and help her gain self- respect. She became
aware of the difference between closeness and being sexual. She learned to recognize and choose other options to fill
her emotional needs. She became more assertive and was abie to say no to men. Before leaving the program she was
proud to report. that she had developed good friendships with two young men and was not sexual with them. This was
a very meaningful new experience for her.
In a one year follow -up visit, she related that she was attending college with plans to go into nursing. She had not
become involved in any abusive relationships.
Though Ann's case is extreme, it is in many ways typical of the young people who are in counseling with the AVCP.
The program provides intensive individual and group counseling for adolescents who have been physically or sexually
abused. In recent months there has been a significant increase in the number of males referred to the program, and
separate groups are available for boys as well as girls. In some cases, boys who have been victims of sexual
exploitation have also become offenders. In response to this, a boy's group for victims /offenders was begun last
summer and the response from referral sources has been excellent. A.mother's group has developed; as well.
The Adolescent Victim Counseling Program is currently beginning its fourth year. The program began in 1979 as a
pilot project funded by the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration and sponsored by the City of Richfield. When
the LEAA was abolished by President Carter, Juvenile Justice and United Way monies provided third year support.
While United Way funding continues, Juvenile Justice monies are.now no longer available. Funds from the private
sector will be needed in order to maintain the program at its present level of services.

Marueen Brockway reported on her findings on gas kilns so far. She has located a
used one for sale. It is a 20 cubic ft. Alpine kiln. Alpine is one of the oldest
companies in the business and has a good reputation. The kiln originally belonged to
a school in St. Paul, has not been used for about 4 years, has not changed in design
for many years, has good controlls and seems to have the features we would want. The
cost is $2000.00 (now is $5730.00 new). She feels the size is good. She talked to
the gas company and found materials and labor, not including hook up or testing,
would be around $700.00. Shelves are bought separately and would be another $600.00.
Bob K. would like her, to check on the amount of gas the old one would use compared to
a new one and on the efficiency of the newer controls. He feels the long range cost
will be in the gas it uses. The cost of building a block structure to house the kiln
will also have to be figured. Maureen will continue her research with Bob's help.
THE NEXT MEETING WILL BE MAY 19TH AT 3:00.

SUBJECT: France Avenue /I -494 Interchange Hearing
Attached is a notice that is being sent to area property owners regarding
the Hennepin County Public Hearing on-the reconstruction of the France
Avenue /I -494 Interchange area. The Staff.of Minnesota Department of
Transportation, Hennepin County, Edina, Richfield, and BZoomington have
worked together over the past couple of years as a Task Force promoting
funding for this project. The Task Force has evaluated several alternatives
and has agreed on two for presentation at the Public Hearing.
This proposed project is probably the most significant,change that could
occur to provide a much higher capactiy on France Avenue. The project
is a m w t if development continues on southeast Edina.
Our department will make a short presentation to Council on.Monday
evening and ask that a resolution be passed supporting the project. I
would propose to attend the hearing and present the City support for
this project if Council so desires.

Dear Property Owner:
The Hennepin County Department of Transportation (HC /DOT) is proposing to
upgrade CSAH 17 (France Avenue) over I -494 in Bloomington, Minnesota. The
project extends from 76th Street South to 80th Street South and involves the
bridge widening over I -494, the realignment of the interchange ramps and
frontage roads, and traffic signal revisions with provisions for a signal
interconnect on CSAH 17.
HC /DOT has scheduled a public hearing to discuss the major design features
and the social, economic, and environmental effects of the proposed improve-
ments. The hearing will be held on Wednesday, May 19, 1982, at the Southdale
Hennepin Area Library Community Room, 7001 York Avenue South, Edina, Minnesota.
Handouts will be available, and plans showing the proposed improvements will
be on display at the public hearing for your inspection. Representatives
from HC /DOT will present the proposal and accept any oral or written comments
at the hearing.
Should you desire to communicate with someone regarding the project prior to
the scheduled public hearing, please contact Vern Genzlinger, Hennepin County
