COMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
STAFF REPORT
October 31, 1979
S -79 -14 The Limited Addition. (Danens Prospect Hills) Generally
located east of Antrim Road and west of Shannon Drive.
The subject property measures approximately 6.3 acres in area. An existing single
family dwelling and several accessory buildings are located on the northerly
extreme of the subject property.
The proponent is requesting a 10 lot subdivision of the subject property. Lot 1,
Block 1 of the proposed subdivision measures 1.53 acres and would be retained for
the existing dwelling and accessory buildings. The remaining nine lots proposed
for development range in size from 14,000 square feet to 27,000 square feet. As
proposed, Shannon Drive would be extended westerly to intersect with Antrim Road.
Also, Antrim Road would be extended southerly and cul- de- saced.
Lots located easterly of the subject property range in size from about 11,000 square
feet to about 23,000 square feet. Most of these lots are 14,000 to 15,000 square
feet in area. Westerly of the subject property is Prospect Hills which is character-
ized by very large lots (i.e. one acre +). The Commission will recall that several
of these lots have been further subdivided in past years.
Recommendation
The subject property represents a transition between average size lots to the east
and very large-lots to the west. Staff believes that the requested subdivision
proposes a logical transition between these two diverse areas.
Staff supports the extension of Shannon Drive to Antrim Road. This extention
should improve the overall traffic circulation of the area.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed subdivision conditioned upon receipt
of a subdivision dedication.

I. Approval of the Minutes
Del Johnson moved that the minutes of the September 26. 1979,
Community Development and Planning Commission meeting be approved. Jim Bentley
seconded the motion. All voted aye; the minutes were approved.
II. New Business:
S -79 -14 The Limited Addition (Danens Prospect Hills) generally
located east of Antrim Road and west of Shannon Drive.
Gordon Johnson informed the Commission that he was abstaining
because of a conflict of interest.
Craig Larsen informed the Commission that the subject property
which measures approximately 6.3 acres in area is bounded on the northern extreme
by a single family dwelling and several accessory buildings.
Mr. Larsen explained that the proponent is requesting a ten lot
subdivision of the property. Lot 1, Block 1 of the proposed subdivision measures
1.53 acres and would be retained for the existing dwelling and accessory buildings.
The remaining nine lots proposed for development range in size from 14,000 square
feet to 27,000 square feet. As proposed, Shannon Drive would be extended westerly
to intersect with Antrim Road. Antrim Road would be extended southerly and cul- de- saced.
Mr. Larsen said that the eastern lots of the subject property
ranged in size from about 11,000 square feet to approximately 23,000 square feet.
Most of the lots were 14,000 to 15,000 square feet in area. Prospect Hills lies
westerly of the subject property and contained lots up to an acre. Mr. Larsen
reminded the Commission that several of these lots had been further subdivided in
past years.
Staff agreed that the proposal represented a good transition
between the smaller lots to the east, and larger lots to the west.
Mr. Larsen noted that the extension of Shannon Drive to Antrim
would improve traffic circulation to the area. whereas if the area was cul- de- saced,
it would service only twenty lots and eliminate entrance for police and fire
vehicles to the neighborhood.

Staff recommended approval of the proposed subdivision with the
extension of Shannon Drive to Antrim Road.
Bill Lewis asked Mr. Larsen if any road problems would result with
the extension. Mr. Larsen responded that there could be some grade problems because
of the grade on Shannon Drive.
Mary McDonald asked if the staff supported the extension because
it would improve the overall traffic circulation of the area.
Mr. Larsen showed an overhead and explained that the extension would
give another access into the neighborhood and since all routes from 70th to Dewey
Hill Road were difficult paths, an additional road would balance the circulation and
traffic flow in the neighborhood.
Rudy Trones, the developer of Shannon, addressed the Commission,
in favor of the second proposal, i.e. the cul -de -sac. He commented that he had
talked with people in the neighborhood and felt that all supported this proposal.
He preferred the cul -de -sac for several reasons:
1. It would solve the problem of too much traffic on Shannon.
2. The cul -de -sac would minimize the grade on the bottom of
Antrim Circle.
3. Aesthetically the cul -de -sac was preferrable.
Mr. Trones noted that Shannon Drive had a problem right angle curve at the bottom of
the drive and felt that opening Shannon up would increase useage by those who were
not aware of Shannon's steep grade and bad corner, thus resulting in increased
accidents.
Mr. Lewis responded that openening up Shannon would decrease
the traffic flow since many people would go up 70th Street.
Del Johnson asked Mr. Trones,to comment on the lot size and
how those would be affected by the cul -de -sac,. Mr. Trones said that the lot sizes
would be larger if the road proposal was eliminated.
Mr. Tom Moore, a resident of Shannon Drive strongly recommended
Mr. Trones' plan for the cul -de -sac. He felt concerned that more traffic resulting
from an extension would increase potential problems from the hazardous corner on
Shannon.
Helen McClelland and Bill Lewis both expressed doubt that traffic
would increase on Shannon, and felt that the need for access to fire and police
vehicles should outweigh the fear of more traffic.
Philip Bolter, resident of Shannon Drive, supported the cul -de -sac
and stated that his neighbors also preferred that proposal.
He expressed concern that new development in the area would create
more traffic through the proposed road.

Mr. Lewis stated that the good of the village in terms of access
to fire trucks outweighed the resident's desire for privacy and lack of traffic.
Mr. Seaburg also felt that whenever possible it was important to support two accesses
for fire and police vehicles.
Mr. Bolter said that there wasn't a significant difference in the
time of fire trucks arrival with the proposed access considering the location of the
existing fire stations.
Mr. Fernelius commented that if fire protection was an issue to
the City then it should have already asked for an easement and extended Shannon.
He challenged whether the issue should revolve around Shannon having two accesses.
There was a general discussion about whether the city had planned
ahead of time to build a road through the area, the residents contended that they
bought their property with the assumption that another cul -de -sac would be built.
Mr. Bolter contended that a new road would become a major access to the high school
and church to the north of Shannon Drive.
Wayne Boysen, a resident on Shannon
residents' contention that an influx of traffic would be
Drive. He said he lived at the bottom of Shannon by the
already had problems keeping the existing traffic out of
that if more traffic flowed through the area and weren't
he would be suffering the consequences.
Drive, supported the other
problematic on Shannon
hazardous corner and
his yard. Mr. Boysen felt
aware of the problem curve,
Tom Moore,supported Mr. Boysen in thinking that non - residents
were .unaware of the problem and therefore would be unprepared for the corner.
Mr. Larsen responded that the staff agreed that the bottom of
Shannon Drive was a difficult intersection but felt that one more route to the area
would help ease the situation and spread the traffic out. He explained that in
fairness to the whole neighborhood the extra route would be an important access for
fire vehicles and for general traffic circulation.
Mr. Larsen said that if the Commission came to any decision,
the staff, would like a condition of parkland dedication and a developer's agreement.
Len Fernelius said he thought the proposal was a close call and
that no single issue could prevail. He felt that if no one public safety issue
prevailed, it would be appropriate to approve the concept favored by the neighbors.
Mr. Fernelius moved approval of the second proposal. i.e.
building a cul -de -sac. Del Johnson seconded the motion. Upon roll the following
voted:
Ayes: Len Fernelius, James Bentley, Del Johnson
Nays: Helen McClelland, Richard Seaberg, Bill Lewis, Mary McDonald
Abstain: Gordon Johnson

S -79 -16 City of Edina. Registered Land Survey for Morningside
School.
Mr. Larsen recalled that through a Community Development Block
Grant, Morningside Elementary School was purchased with the idea of demolishing
the building and adding the property to the parkland properties. Since that time,
the City Council approved the sale of the new wing of the school for private
school use. The City retained the property where the old school existed. The
old school was demolished and the property was added to the park. The reason for
the registered land survey would be to break off the portion where the new wing
sits for the purpose of selling that land to the private school and to retain the rest
of the tracts for the park's purpose.
A question was raised as to why the Commission was involved in this
issue.
Mr. Larsen explained that in order to sell the school. the lot had
to be divided and described. Since it was an unplatted piece of property it was
necessary to get a cleaner division of the property. Therefore, the Commission had to
approve the land survey.
Gordon Johnson moved approval. Richard Seaberg seconded the motion.
All voted aye; the motion carried.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Kenneth Rosland, City Manager
FROM: Gordon Hughes, City Planner
SUBJECT: Year VI Community Development Block Grants
DATE: November 15, 1979
On November 19, 1979, the City Council will conduct a public hearing regarding
Year VI Community Development Block Grants. We have announced this hearing by
way of an article in the non -legal section of the newspaper as well as individual
mailed notices to most of the civic and neighborhood associations in the City.
This year, as last year, most of the citizen participation activities required in
conjunction with Community Development funds will- take place at the county level.
You will recall that the Council appointed an Edina resident to the county Citizen
Advisory Committee to take part in the citizen participation process. As a result,
the Council is required to conduct only one hearing on Community Development funds
this year rather than two or three as was required in past years.
As in past years, the use of Community Development funds is limited to a very
narrow range of activities which fall into three general categories:
1. Activities which directly benefit low and moderate income persons;
e.g. housing rehabilitation and land acquisition for low and
moderate income housing.
2. Improvement projects in areas containing a majority of low and
moderate income persons; e.g. parks, utilities, and other public
works.
3. Exceptions; elimination of slums and blight

NEW RELEASE
o�
The City of has joined with 40 additional Hennepin County com-
munities and the County to develop and submit an application for federal assistance
as an Urban County, pursuant to the Housing and Community Development Acts of 1974,
amended. The Urban Hennepin County Community Development Block Grant Program has_
been developed to provide decent housing, a suitable living environment and increased
economic opportunities for all residents with particular attention given to the needs
of low and moderate income persons.
As one of less than 90 urban counties in the United States, Hennepin County is.
qualified to make application for a share of the available urban county entitlement
funding amount. Urban Hennepin County's share of the available funds is based
upon a formula which compares each urban county's population, extent of poverty and
extent of housing overcrowding against the total of these factors for all urban
counties.
The Area HUD Office has informed Urban Hennepin County that its preliminary fourth
program year funding has been estimated at approximately $3,300,000.
As an urban county participant, has been informed that it should
use Z$ ,e>oo as a planning target in developing our portion of the Urban
Hennepin County Community Development Program.
The City of is requesting the participation of its residents in
determining what the housing assistance and community development needs of the City
are. In making these determinations as to the expenditure of our share of Urban

I. Approval of the Minutes
Del Johnson moved that the minutes of the September 26. 1979,
Community Development and Planning Commission meeting be approved. Jim Bentley
seconded the motion. All voted aye; the minutes were approved.
II. New Business:
S -79 -14 The Limited Addition (Danens Prospect Hills) generally
located east of Antrim Road and west of Shannon Drive.
Gordon Johnson informed the Commission that he was abstaining
because of a conflict of interest.
Craig Larsen informed the Commission that the subject property
which measures approximately 6.3 acres in area is bounded on the northern extreme
by a single family dwelling and several accessory buildings,
Mr. Larsen explained that the proponent is requesting a ten lot
subdivision of the property. Lot 1, Block 1 of the proposed subdivision measures
1.53 acres and would be retained for the existing dwelling and accessory buildings.
The remaining nine lots proposed for development range in size from 14,000 square
feet to 27,000 square feet. As proposed, Shannon Drive would be extended westerly
to intersect with Antrim Road. Antrim Road would be extended southerly and cul- de- saced.
Mr. Larsen said that the eastern lots of the subject property
ranged in size from about 11,000 square feet to approximately 23,000 square feet.
Most of the lots were 14,000 to 15,000 square feet in area. Prospect Hills lies
westerly of the subject property and contained lots up to an acre. Mr. Larsen
reminded the Commission that several of these lots had been further subdivided in
past years.
Staff agreed that the proposal represented a good transition
between the smaller lots to the east, and larger lots to the west.
Mr. Larsen noted that the extension of Shannon Drive to-Antrim
would improve traffic circulation to the area, whereas.if the area was cul- de- saced,
it would service only twenty lots and eliminate entrance for police and fire
vehicles to the neighborhood.
Edina Community Development and Planning Commission
Oceober 31, 1979
Page 2
Staff recommended approval of the proposed subdivision with the
extension of Shannon Drive to Antrim Road.
Bill Lewis asked Mr. Larsen if any road problems would result with
the extension. Mr. Larsen responded that there could be some grade problems because
of the grade on Shannon Drive.
Mary McDonald asked if the staff supported the extension because
it would improve the overall traffic circulation of the area..
Mr. Larsen showed an overhead and explained that the extension would
give another access into the neighborhood and since all routes from 70th to Dewey
Hill Road were difficult paths, an additional road would balance the circulation and
traffic flow in the neighborhood.
Rudy Trones, the developer of Shannon, addressed the Commission
in favor of the second proposal, i.e. the cul -de -sac. He commented that he had
talked with people in the neighborhood and felt that all supported this proposal.
He preferred the cul -de -sac for several reasons:
1. It would solve the problem of too much traffic on Shannon.
2. The cul -de -sac would minimize the grade on the bottom of
Antrim Circle.
3. Aesthetically the cul -de -sac was preferrable.
Mr. Trones noted that Shannon Drive had a problem right angle curve at the bottom of
the drive and felt that opening Shannon up would increase useage by those who were
not aware of Shannon's steep grade and bad corner, thus resulting in increased
accidents.
Mr. Lewis responded that openening up Shannon would decrease
the traffic flow since many people would go up 70th Street.
Del Johnson asked Mr. Trones to comment on the lot size and
how those would be affected by the cul -de -sac. Mr. Trones said that the lot sizes
would be larger if the road proposal was eliminated.
Mr. Tom Moore, a resident of Shannon Drive strongly recommended
Mr. Trones' plan for the cul -de -sac. He felt concerned that more traffic resulting
from an extension would increase potential problems from the hazardous corner on
Shannon.
Helen McClelland and Bill Lewis both expressed doubt that traffic
would increase on Shannon, and felt that the need for access to fire and police
vehicles should outweigh the fear of more traffic.
Philip Bolter, resident of Shannon Drive, supported the cul -de -sac
and stated that his neighbors also preferred that proposal.
He expressed concern that new development in the area would create
more traffic through the proposed road.
Edina Community Development and Planning Commission
October 31, 1979
Page 3
Mr. Lewis stated that the good of the village in terms of access
to fire trucks outweighed the resident's desire for privacy and lack of traffic.
Mr. Seaburg also felt that whenever possible it was important to support two accesses
for fire and police vehicles.
Mr. Bolter said. that there .wasn't a significant difference in the
time of fire trucks arrival with the proposed access considering the location of the
existing fire stations.
Mr. Fernelius commented that if fire protection was an issue to
the City then it should have already asked for an easement and extended Shannon.
He challenged whether the issue should revolve around Shannon having two accesses.
There was a general discussion about whether the city had planned
ahead of time to build a road through the area, the residents contended that they
bought their property with the assumption that another cul -de -sac would be built.
Mr. Bolter contended that a new road would become a major access to the high school
and church to the north of Shannon Drive.
Wayne Boysen, a resident on Shannon
residents' contention that an influx of traffic would be
Drive. He said he lived at the bottom of Shannon by the
already had problems keeping the existing traffic out of
that if more traffic flowed through the area and weren't
he would be suffering the consequences.
Drive, supported the other
problematic on Shannon
hazardous corner and
his yard. Mr. Boysen felt
aware of the problem curve,
Tom Moore,supported Mr. Boysen in thinking that non - residents
were unaware of the problem and therefore would be unprepared for the corner.
Mr. Larsen responded that the staff agreed that the bottom of
Shannon Drive was a difficult intersection but felt that one more route to the area
would help ease the situation and spread the traffic out. He explained that in
fairness to the whole neighborhood the extra route would be an important access for
fire vehicles and for general traffic circulation.
Mr. Larsen said that if the Commission came to any decision,
the staff would like a condition of parkland dedication and a developer's agreement.
Len Fernelius said he thought the proposal was a close call and
that no single issue could prevail. He felt that if no one public safety issue
prevailed,.it would be appropriate to approve the concept favored by the neighbors.
Mr. Fernelius moved approval of the second proposal. i.e.
building a cul -de -sac. Del Johnson seconded the motion. Upon roll the following
voted:
Ayes: Len Fernelius, James Bentley, Del Johnson
Nays: Helen McClelland, Richard Seaberg, Bill Lewis, Mary McDonald
Abstain: Gordon Johnson
Edina Community Development and Planning Committee

The motion failed four to three.
Helen McClelland moved the proposed subdivision with parkland
dedication and developer's agreement with Shannon Drive being extended through,
and that the excess right of way be vacated. Mary McDonald seconded the motion.
The ayes carried. The motion-passed.
Z -79 -9 Findell and Clark. R -1 Single Family District and
R -3 Multiple Family District to PRD - 3 Planned
Residential District.
and
S -79 -15 Findell Third Addition. Generally located south of
west 70th Street and west of Cahill Road.
Mr. Larsen explained that the subject property.measured 5.56 acres
in area and was comprised of three seperate parcels of property. Outlot A. Findell's
Second Addition measured approximately two acres and was the most westerly parcel.
A two acre unplatted parcel was located immediately to the east of Outlot A.
A 1.6 acre parcel having frontage on Cahill Road was the most easterly parcel.
Mr. Larsen asked the Commission to recall that Outlot A and
properties to the south were plated and given preliminary approval as a PRD -3
approximately two years ago. At that time, the Commission recommended approval of
this development plan but requested that other small parcels in the area be combined
to allow a more unified appearance and function in the area. Fourteen townhouse
units were proposed for Outlot A and 64 units were proposed for the properties to
the south in Findell Second Addition.
He continued that the most easterly parcel which fronts on
Cahill Road was presently zoned R -3 multiple residential. The property could be
developed with approximately 16 units without the need for rezoning or plan approval
from the City. The middle parcel was zoned R -1 and was developed with one single
family dwelling. This parcel was controlled by one of the proponents.
The proponents agreed to pursue an overall Planned Residential
District zoning of the subject property in order to provide a more logical development
of the properties and to conform with the Commission's direction. The 16 unit apart-
ment building would be two stories in height. The westerly two thirds of the
property would be developed with thirty four townhouse units. Two enclosed parking
spaces would be provided for each unit and twenty seven exposed parking stalls
would be provided on the site. Access to the project would occur by way of a
private drive from Cahill Road.
Mr. Larsen explained that the staff had suggested that the
allowed density for the subject property would be based on the densities of the
three component parcels. In this case, the R -3 parcel would be allowed 12 units per
Edina Community Development and Planning Committee
October 31, 1979
Page 5
acre in accordance with the zoning ordinance and Outlot A would be allowed seven
units per acre based on plans previously approved by the Commission and Council. Density
for the two acre parcel in the middle should be based upon the density reduction
formula of the Southwest Edina Plan.
Staff supported the proponents for drawing the parcels together,
From a density standpoint, staff believed that the easterly parcel which was
zoned R -3 should retain the density allowed by the zoning, i.e., ten units per
acre. Staff believed that this parcel should not be reduced in density as a result
of the owner's willingness to participate in an overall plan. Staff also believed
that Outlot A (the most westerly parcel) would be allowed 14 units which was
consistent with prior approvals. Mr. Larsen said that the staff analyzed the
middle parcel in light of the density reduction policy and based on the review,
found that the parcel should be allowed approximately 13 units. Therefore, the staff
felt that a more appropriate density of the area would be 43 units.
Mr. Larsen informed the Commission that the staff basically
liked the proposal and thought that it worked well, but felt there were some problems
with it. One problem was the proposed setbacks. According to ordinance
requirements, a 35 foot setback was required from all property lines, the proposed
plans illustrated 20 foot setback from the north, south and east property lines.
The staff believed that the plans should be modified to comply with setback
requirements.
The second problem for the staff was the status of the private
road in the project. The proponents would be requesting a two lot subdivision of
the property which would create a lot for the 16 unit condominium building and a lot
for the townhouse portion of the project. Therefore, the townhouse portion of the
project would not have frontage on a public street and would have to rely on the private
cross easement for access to Cahill Road. In addition, the condominium and the townhouse
project would establish separate and independent homeowners associations.
Consequently, ownership and maintenance responsibilities of the private road could
be unclear for futur owners.
Mr. Larsen suggested that an appropriate solution for these
problems would be a dedication of a public road across the condominium lot. The
staff believed that a 40 foot wide right of way should be dedicated for the road
across the northerly extreme of the property and that the paved surface of the
road should be 28 feet in width. A cul -de -sac would be located on the westerly
terminus of the public road. According to ordinance requirements buildings would
maintain a 35 foot setback from the new road right of way. Due to the nature
of this road, the staff would support a variance request from this requirement.
The staff believed that the above noted modifications should be
pursued by the proponents. A preliminary zoning approval which may not be
appropriate would be conditioned upon the above modifications and, a developer's
agreement, final platting and a subdivision dedication which would be based on
the middle tract of the subject property.
Edina Community Development and Planning Committee
October 31, 1979
Page 6
Mr. Fernelius asked if the proposed plan showed fifty units,
and wondered if the proponents shouldn't redesign the plat to show a smaller
density in order to be consistent with the staff's suggestions. He also
wondered if the land had soil condition problems. Roger Findell said that there
shouldn't be any soil problems since the ground was all high,
Mr. Findel_l.questioned why the road couldn't be private with
perpetual easement to the.back side.
Mr. Larsen clarified that according to the ordinance; a buildable
lot must have frontage on a public street. The proposed plan with two lots did
not provide the townhouses with the required public access point.
Mr. Fernelius moved delay of the approval until afore mentioned
problems were resolved. Gordon Johnson seconded the motion. All voted aye.
The motion carried.
S -79 -16 City of Edina. Registered Land Survey for Morningside
School.
Mr. Larsen recalled that through a Community Development Block
Grant, Morningside Elementary School was purchased with the idea of demolishing
the building and adding the property to the parkland properties. Since that time,
the City Council approved the sale of the new wing of the school for private
school use. The City retained the property where the old school existed. The
old school was demolished and the property was added to the park. The reason for
the registered land survey would be to break off the portion where the new wing
sits for the purpose of selling that land to the private school and to retain the rest
of the tracts for the park's purpose.
A question was raised as to why the Commission was involved in this
issue.
Mr. Larsen explained that in order to sell the school. the lot had
to be divided and described. Since it was an unplatted piece of property it was
necessary to get a cleaner division of the property. Therefore, the Commission had to
approve the land survey.
Gordon Johnson moved approval. Richard Seaberg seconded the motion.
All voted aye; the motion carried.
LD -79 -9 Lot 1, Block 2, Replat of Part of Grandview Plateau.
Mr. Larsen informed the Commission that the proponent was
requesting a party wall divison for a two family dwelling located a 5200 Grandview
Lane. The units were not being served by seperate sewer and water connections, and
a swimming pool existed in the rear yard. The Health Department Ordinance stated
that any pool that had access by more than one residence had to be licensed and
built to public pool specifications. Mr. Larsen continued that if the Commission
Edina Community Development and Planning Committee

approved the division, an agreement would be made for seperate sewer and water
connections and the pool would be fenced for use by one family only, or upgraded
for public pool standards.
Bill Lewis stated that he would like to see the agreements
before he brought action on the division.
Mr. Larsen clarified the location of the pool to the - Commission
and let the Commission know that the pool was close to standards already, but
the fencing would have to be.upgraded somewhat and then inspected by the City and
licensed.
There was a general discussion by the Commission as to whether
the proposal should or should not be approved with all the attached contingencies.
It was brought up that the owner was not present to speak in his behalf.
Gordon Johnson moved to continue the proposal; Jim Bentley
seconded the motion. All voted aye, the motion carried.
LD -79 -10 That part of the North 955.5 feet of the East 23.36
acres of Government Lot 2, Section 9, Township 116,
Range 21, Hennepin County, Minnesota.
Craig Larsen explained to the Commission that approval was
recommended on September 5, 1979, of a plat entitled One Corporate Center Phase III,
located west of Metro Drive and south of Nine Mile Creek. The proponent agreed to
dedicate a 2.5 acre tract of land adjoining Nine Mile Creek. The City Council
approved this plat and dedication.
Mr. Larsen presented the lot division proposal in order to
provide suitable legal description and new parcel for the property which is to be
dedicated to the City.
Mary McDonald moved that the Commission approve the lot division.
Len Fernelius seconded the motion. All voted aye, the motion to approve the lot
division carried.

Gentlemen:
Two years ago when the Colonial Church of Edina was granted
their building permit, neighbors to the UM (of the church's
back yard) were assured there would be adequate, year round
landscaping to protect our view. Matter of fact . . . it was
implied by Mr. Lakkla who presented the church's case, that
there would hardly be any need for protection AT ALL! Well,
the church is up, a few small evergreens were planted and
those of us most affected by the church's backside have looked
at dead evergreens all year, with the water pipes lying on the
ground still to be installed, the overflow of trash, an assort-
ment of odds and ends on the back stoop, the "bright blue dumpster,
the complete array of pipes, a/c unit, etc., on the roof. There
is no way you can call what they planted, adequate landscaping
protection.
The church doesn't pay taxes, and may we point out that WE DO
and rather substantial ones. Certainly we are entitled to have
the council insist the church clean up and improve its act,
since the council felt that was a pre- requisite in granting
the church a building permit in the first place.

How can a retail store or a restaurant sell
- . their -�entirc_invenlor_y -of_ Wine.- .chilled? -:One way -
might be to install thousands of dollars worth
of refrigerated cabinets.
Now there's another way. The Wine Well
chiller, just 22 inches in diameter and 44 inches
high, can do it all and more. Using a rapidly
recirculating, frigid water bath, up to four bottles
of wine at one time can be chilled in 3 to 6
minutes. That's 40 to 80 bottles an hour! The
Wine Well chiller is a full 25 times faster in
chilling wine than a conventional refrigerrlor.
And sornelhing else. Not only is the wine
chilled fast, but it's chilled to the exact lenwera
lure of the customer's preference. This adds at
new merchandising dimension in the sale of wine.
Customers can be asked not only what wine
they'd like, but at precisely what temperature
they'd like it served. No more delicate red wines
at beer temperatures, from the all- purpose cooler.
There's something else for the retailer too.
While the customer is waiting for the chilling
service, he's captive for an extra few minutes. Re-
tailers I have spoken to who have used the
Wine Well chiller state that "bonus" sales are
steadily .increasing. Customers. are _buy.ing more
than they came in for, and some retailers be-
lieve the unit pays for itself in as little as three
months. One retailer told me that 6 minutes in
the Wine Well chiller is equal to 21/2 hours in
a refrigerator at 36 degrees. While iri Boston re-
cently I saw a large neon sign outside of Kappy's
Liquors advertising "Any wine in the store chilled
in minutes ". They have bought 10 units.
For the wine connoisseur, a fine live wine
should never be chilled until it's —going to be
served. Keeping wines refrigerated stops the
maturing process, and therefore _ 1es5ens . their
value.

shows that added capacity is needed during peak periods.
Set the timer for 3 minutes to take a fine red wine just a little be-
low room temperature, to 60 °F (16 °C). In 6 minutes a white or
rose is perfect at 50 °F (10 °C), and 8 minutes brings champagne
to 45 °F (7 0C) —all ideal tasting temperatures.
But the most Important point of all is that the chiller will in-
crease wine sales. By featuring the accurate chilling service,
having the unit clearly visible — gently flowing water, soft illumina-
tion and wine motion — customers will think wine with greater fre-
quency. Let them lower their own wine into the chiller, or use the
unit as a "wishing well ". Whatever the promotional method, this
chiller will increase sales.
How does it work? A powerful, quiet refrigeration system auto-
matically maintains a water charge at just above the freezing
point. A noiseless pump changes the water in the chilling tank
once every minute. The flowing, supercold water extracts heat

MEMO
TO: Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Housing Committee
SUBJECT: Low Income Housing Moratorium
It has come to the committees attention that the recently passed moratorium on
consideration of Tower income housing projects. has affected a proposal that
was heard before the Planning Commission.at the September 5, 1979 meeting. It.
has also come to our attention that the developer has a preliminary funding
commitment from the'Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and
is incurring considerable expense to retain an option on the subject
property.
Although the committee has not specifically reviewed the subject proposal
and has not reached a final evaluation and recommendation on all suitable
sites within the city, the site proposed by Crossroads Development does possess
those characteristics necessary to support a development of subsidized family
housing. The proximity of the site to shopping and Public Transportation as
well as the access to near =by employment opportunities makes the site one of
the more attractive remaining sites in the city.
As you are aware the Mandatory Land Planning Act requires that we provide
both the opportunities (land) and the mechanism (money) necessary to provide
subsidized units sufficient to meet the established goals (720 units). r'
As a result of our committee work to date, it appears that the established
goals for the community are unobtainable. Our committee is currently
attempting to determine what number of units represents a reasonable goal
for the city. Although our committee is not prepared to issue a final
report and recommendation at this time, we do feel that the subject proposal
will in no way conflict with our findings.
Based upon our work to date our committee would strongly recommend that the
moratorium on consideration of low and moderate income housing be lifted and
that the subject proposal be considered at the earliest possible date. We
feel that a fair, open and timely consideration of this proposal will demonstrate
a good faith effort on the part of the city, and will strengthen our position
as we negotiate for approval of our Comprehensive Land Use Plan.

FROM: KENNETH ROSLAN,D, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: TRAPPING ORDINANCE
DATE: NOVEMBER 14, 1979
At the July 2,:1979 Council meeting an amendment to the City's ordinance that
bans use of leghold traps was requested so that with the City Manager's permiss-
ion leghold traps could be utilized to abate certain nuisances, particularly
beavers.
At that meeting it was decided to hold it over to the July 16, 1979 meeting.
On July 16th it was decided that the City would attempt to eliminate the
problems with live traps and take no action at that time. The live trap was
utilized and remedied the beaver problem at Nine Mile Creek and Hwy. 18, but
had no success at Pamela Park. The City ceased using the trap after the 1st
of October as trapping and translocating after that date would condemn the
animals to starvation.
At present there are three problem areas where modification of the ordinance
is.needed to remedy problems - beavers at Pamela, out in Braemar (not serious
at present) and muskrats on Lakeview. To remedy the problem three solutions
exist:
- Live traps.
- "Konabear" traps.
- Steel jawed leghold traps.
The Department of Natural Resources recommended use of the live trap from
1 July to 1 October. Apart from the problems with live trapping in the winter,
they advise - against it before 1 July as spring is when the mothers give birth
and if a mother were trapped before the kits were "independent" they would die.
The "Konabear" trap on the other hand is a large trap that is lethal not only
to beavers but also dogs, cats and could be dangerous to children and even
adults.
It is requested that the attached ordinances:be passed so that judicious use
may be made of the trap under City control to abate serious nuisances.
Opponents of the modification have been notified of this recommendation.

TR.9PPING ORDINANCES GRANTED FIRST READING. Mr. Rosland presented Ordinance Nos.
1011 -A1 and 1222- A2which have been proposed because traps presently allowed are
ineffective against the beavers which are causing a real nuisance in various areas
of the Citv. Mayor Van Valkenburg said that he gathered that, at the time the leg -
hold traps were banned, concerned residents realized that some alternate action
might be necessary in the case of an emergency. Mr. Rosland added that there is
also a problem with gophers chewing through underground lighting cables and that
efforts would be made to find a way to combat that problem.. Councilwoman Schmidt '
then offered the following ordinances for First P•.etdina:
