VIOLENCE PETITION PRESENTED Chief of Police Swanson explained that on Friday, May 1, 1992, after dismissal about 200 Edina High School students marched to City Hall to present a petition protesting the violence occurring in Los Angeles and the Rodney King verdict. The petition, with 218 signatures, read: "We, the students of Edina, are protesting the violence in L. A.,. Atlanta and San Francisco. We also wish for law and order to be an integral part of our community, but not at the cost of independent rights. We wish an end to the violence and ask for peace. We also object to the verdict of the Rodney King case." The students carried banners stating "Stop the Violence" and "E.H.S. - Peace ". Chief Swanson said he accepted the petition on behalf of the City and indicated he would present it to the Council on May 4, 1992. He felt the activity was a very mature and orderly expression of their concerns. The students seemed dedicated to the issues cited in the petition and directed their energies in a constructive manner.

Motion carried on rollcall vote - five ayes. PUBLIC HEARING HELD ON DRAFT EDINA CODE: DRAFT SECTION 1045 REVIEWED Affidavits of Notice were presented, approved and ordered placed on file. Mayor Richards opened the fourth public hearing on the draft Edina City Code by saying that Council, during the last six months, has been reviewing the draft code with the intention of holding a series of public hearings to gain input citizens prior to adoption of the code in June, 1992. Certain sections of the code are focused upon specifically at each hearing. Consideration will also be given to certain chapters after the sections are discussed. DRAFT SECTION 1045 - PARKING AND STORAGE OF VEHICLES Assistant Manager Hughes explained that 'draft Section 1045 deals with the parking and storage of vehicles and presented the major changes to existing ordinance. Two types of vehicles are defined: Commercial Usage Vehicles - Designed or modified for construction, maintenance or demolition. - Tractors. - Towed equipment except recreational vehicles. - Snow removal equipment. - Earth moving equipment. - Trucks, vans, and pickups exceeding 3/4 ton carrying capacity. Recreation Vehicles - Campers. - Pickups with campers or toppers. - Mobile homes. - All terrain vehicles. - Marine crafts. - Camping trailers. - Snowmobiles. Trailers used to transport recreational vehicles. Permitted parking locations are as follows: 1. Commercial usage vehicles, inoperable vehicles, unmounted campers and toppers may be parked or stored only within a garage or building. 2. Recreational vehicles may be parked or stored in a garage or building, or may be parked in the driveway but not for more than 48 hours. 3. All other vehicles may be parked or stored in a garage or building or may be parked or stored in the driveway. 4. Vehicles parked in the driveway must not be within 15 feet of the street and five feet of the side lot line. The special permit process has been retained from the existing ordinance. Public Comment Speaking in opposition to the proposed ordinance changes were: Gene Franchett, 5913 Chowen Avenue South, commented that the issue involves a conflict in lifestyles and values, i.e. some residents have lake homes and some have campers. He has not heard any negative comments from neighbors regarding his camper and was opposed to prohibiting parking of recreational vehicles on driveways. Greg Carlin, 6901 Hillcrest Lane, submitted written comments and questioned why a more restrictive ordinance is necessary; why not enforce the current ordinance. In summary, he said that the draft code will have an adverse impact on the state economy, it is unfair to property owners, it will be unenforceable, and it will ultimately reduce property values. He recommended leaving the current ordinance in place. Milt Farnham, 6945 Cornelia Drive, commented that he maintains his recreational vehicle, stores it on a concrete slab next to his garage screened by bushes, and by storing it at his home is a ready and usable piece of equipment. Maged Daoud, 6617 Paiute Pass, said even though he is not a recreational vehicle owner, he believed in the right to pursue happiness in America and individual rights should not be taken away, and that the proposed ordinance is too restrictive. Cindy Daoud said the existing ordinance is fine and she did not want to loose more freedoms. The proposed ordinance is extremely ponderous and would be a hardship for both residents and staff. Russ Nelson, 7117 West Shore Drive, spoke to his letter of April 29, 1992, in objection to the proposed restrictions on recreational vehicle parking. He said that this will decrease the spontaneity of family times in deference to aesthetics for the community. Inez Vogtman, 6309 France Avenue, said she believed that their camper sitting on their driveway is not any worse that the dandelions or unraked leaves in their neighbor's yard. Dale Hedtke, 5929 Ashcroft Avenue, informed Council that his pickup with a topper is for hauling things and should not be considered a recreational vehicle. LuJean Anderson, 6233 Virginia Avenue, explained the reason they bought a home in Edina was because they could store an recreational vehicle on their property. Though they no longer have it the proposed ordinance would prohibit parking their boat on their property for short periods of time so that it could be used by their teenage sons on short notice. Wayne Alexander, 7028 Sally Lane, said he has a boat which is too large for his garage and he cannot enlarge the garage as it is in a floodplain. He asked where the restrictions would stop, and why not enforce the existing ordinance. Ralph Hanson, 5928 Chowen Avenue, felt the proposed code is too inclusive and almost discriminatory. Doris Lee, 4705 Valley View Road, said they are retired and want to continue having their recreational vehicle accessible any time they want to use it. David Wodrich, 5916 Ashcroft Avenue, commented that he has a 50 foot lot and a single attached garage for the family vehicle. He owns a pickup with a topper which he needs to carry materials for his work. He inquired if he would need a permit to park it in his driveway if he had three days off in a row. Gary Bartolett, 7421 Gleason Road, said he owns a motor home and objected to the proposal to "take from my neighbor ", instead of looking at ourselves and sacrificing some so that our neighbor can enjoy his rights too. John Elsing, 7202 Shannon Drive, submitted that he would be upset if a converted school bus were to be parked in his area, but in this land of 10,000 lakes he found it hard to believe he might not be able to park his boat in his driveway. Also, that he has a pickup with a topper to secure his tools and other personal property which he drives to work and he objected to that being restricted by the proposed ordinance. Chuck Nichols, 6521 Cherokee Trail, said he owns a travel trailer which in the summer is parked by their tuck -under garage. He stated that he disagrees with the proposed ordinance and if there is a--neighborhood concern about recreational vehicle storage, it should be discussed with the neighbors and not be dependent on an ordinance to handle these concerns. Charles White, 6016 Tracy Avenue; David Fleming, 6324 Brookview Avenue; and Harold Kempffer, 5537 Wooddale Avenue: said enforcing the existing ordinance, or slightly modifying it, would be better than implementing a more restrictive one that is unenforceable. It was noted that a letter dated April 29, 1992, was received from Harold J. Bagley, 7113 Glouchester Avenue, objecting to the proposed ordinance changes. Residents speaking in favor of the proposed code modifications: Jeff Holker, 5432 Oaklawn Avenue, explained his sight line has changed recently with his neighbor's purchase of a 10 -15 year old, rusty recreational vehicle. His South Harriet Park area has small lots so the proximity of stored vehicles is of even greater concern. Cindy Holker said there is always room for compromise and she would not object to a recreational vehicle if it were parked out of their line of sight. Maureen Enger, 5433 Oaklawn Avenue, referred to a recent Andy Rooney commentary: residents work on maintaining their property and view and then a neighbor parks a recreational vehicle or boat in full view. She said she has checked prices on off - premise storage and found them at $25 to $35 per month or less for a year. If recreational vehicle parking is allowed, the neighborhood would cease to be a neighborhood and turn into a trailer park. Kathy Rogan, 4720 W. 70th Street, said she lives directly across from Arneson Acres Park. A neighbor has an recreational vehicle that has not been moved for 8 -10 years and two cars that have not been moved in 2 -3 years. Houses in the area have sold for less than what they are worth because of the vehicles stored on the premises. Heidi Schellhas, 7252 Monardo Lane, observed that aesthetics affect property values and that storage of recreational vehicles must be controlled. William Hanson, 5801 Johnson Drive, advised that a neighbor across the street now has a recreational vehicle that sets up above the roof of their house, is seldom moved except for winter vacations and blocks the view from both directions. He said some restrictions are necessary. No further comment was heard on draft Section 1045. CHAPTER 12 - STREETS AND PARKS Assistant Manager Hughes advised that the following provisions in the existing code have been changed: Section 1200 - Use and Maintenance of Streets Snow storage on boulevards permitted (in front of your residence). Snow removal from walks - increased from 12 hours to 48 hours (after end of snowfall). Section 1205 - Curb Cuts (New section) Permit required for new driveway cuts to streets. Section 1230 - Conduct in Public Places Non - intoxicating.beer and wine may be served at indoor recreation facilities and Van Valkenburg Park. Vehicles may not be displayed for sale in public places. Feeding of wildlife prohibited in public areas. Douglas Hart, 6012 Olinger Boulevard, expressed concern that he may be prohibited from feeding the pheasants in Bredesen Park if the proposed Section 1230 is adopted. No further comment was heard on draft Chapter 12. CHAPTER 13 - TRADES AND OCCUPATIONS Assistant Manager Hughes advised that the following changes have been proposed to the existing ordinance: Section 1300 - Refuse and Recyclables Haulers must provide volume based fees (Required by Waste Management Act). Section 1310 - Peddlers and Solicitors Eliminates licensing requirement for peddlers and solicitors. Peddlers and solicitors must observe placard. Section 1315 - Advertising Material Prohibits leaving advertising material on placarded properties. Excludes circulars like Edina Sun from the requirement. It was noted that a letter from Randy Mattson, dated April 22, 1992, asked the Council to consider passing an ordinance banning unsolicited materials being tossed into resident's yards. He specifically noted that the Edina Sun has not complied with his request to stop delivery. Section 1325 - Tobacco Smokeless tobacco included. Section 1330 and Section 1430 - Taxicabs Eliminates licensing by Edina. Cabs and cab drivers must display license issued by Bloomington, Richfield, St. Louis Park, or the Metropolitan Airports Commission. No further public comment was heard on Chapter 13. CHAPTER 14 - TRAFFIC AND VEHICLES The following changes have been proposed to the existing ordinance; those marked with an asterisk have been deleted: Section 1400 - Traffic Unreasonable acceleration. Unattended children in car. Douglas Hart, 6012 Olinger Circle, said one fire hydrant has been destroyed at his home because of excessive speed, plus he looses two mailboxes per year. He inquired whether radar control or something could be installed to stop speeders. *Section 1420 - Motor Bicycles Section 1435 -- Snowmobiles and All Terrain Vehicles Permits the Police Chief to issue permit for disabled person's use of all terrain vehicle. No further public comment was heard on Chapter 14. Mayor Richards stated that written comments on the draft code should be submitted prior to June 1, 1992. He then declared the public hearing closed and announced a Council work session on the draft code for May 11, 1992, at 7:00 P.M. FINAL REZONING FROM R -1 TO R -2 GRANTED FOR LOT 3. BLOCK 1. MCCAULEY HEIGHTS 8TH ADDITION) Affidavits of Notice were presented, approved and ordered placed on file. Presentation by Planner Planner Larsen recalled that preliminary rezoning from R -1, Single Dwelling Unit District to R -2, Double Dwelling Unit District was approved by the Council on April 20, 1992. The subject property is a vacant lot with frontage on McCauley Trail in McCauley Heights 8th Addition. No conditions were placed on the preliminary approval and there are no changes to the proposal. Staff would recommend final rezoning' approval. No public comment or objection was heard. Member Smith introduced Ordinance No. 825 -A46 for Second Reading and moved adoption as follows: ORDINANCE NO. 825 -A46 AN- ORDINANCE AMENDING THE.ZONING ORDINANCE (NO. 825) BY ADDING TO THE DOUBLE DWELLING UNIT DISTRICT (R -2) THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EDINA, MIIOUiSOTA, ORDAINS: Section 1.

Rollcall: Ayes: Kelly, Paulus, Rice, Smith, Richards Ordinance adopted. Mayor BOARD OF APPEALS DECISION REVERSED - VARIANCES GRANTED FOR LOT COVERAGE AND SIDE STREET SE'rBACS FOR LOT 5. BLOCK K. SOUTH HARSIET PABg 15236 BROOKVIER AVENUE) Presentation by Planner Associate Planner Aaker said the subject property is a single family home at 5236 Brookview Avenue. She advised that at its meeting of February 6, 1992, the Board of Appeals and Adjustments heard the request of Andrew /Lark MacPhail for a two percent lot coverage variance and an additional one foot side street setback variance to allow an addition to the rear of their home. The applicants hope to add.a small eating area, mudroom, bay window seat and half bath. The Board discussed the addition and agreed that visually the addition would not impact the neighborhood to a significant degree. However, the Board concluded that at present the house and detached garage are large with regard to lot size and that a variance had already been granted to exceed the maximum lot coverage requirements. The Board denied the request based upon a lack of demonstrated hardship. The proposal has been appealed to be heard by the. Council for final action. Staff would recommend that Council affirm the decision of the Board. Ms. Aaker informed the Council that there have been two previous variance hearings in the past regarding.expansion of the home: 1) In 1977, a nine foot side street setback variance was approved to allow an attached one and one -half car garage to be converted into a family room and to allow the addition of a 22 X 24 foot detached garage in the rear yard area. 2) In 1982, a 5.8 percent lot coverage variance and a 10 foot side street setback variance were approved. The addition included two new bedrooms above the existing kitchen and dining room and an addition to a sun porch in the front yard area. The current request would require approval for an additional two percent (150 square feet) increase in lot coverage to allow a total of 32.8'percent lot coverage. Further, the request requires a one foot side street setback variance in addition to the 10 foot side street setback variance approved in 1977. Presentation by Proponent Lark MacPhail submitted that they love the house and neighborhood and want to continue living there. She said the house is not up to modern standards and the addition would increase the value of the home and the adjacent houses. She explained that it would be a one story addition and that the neighbors are supportive of the proposal. Also, that it is an exception in this neighborhood not to have added an addition. Houses in the area are growing in value and getting larger. The former owners of the home moved because they could not expand. Public Comment Berkley Lewis, 3945 West 49th Street, pointed out that he is the only neighbor who would be visually impacted by the addition and approved of the proposal. He added that he had built a, huge addition recently that did not require a variance and that has the same amount of lot coverage. He observed the MacPhail's house has a serious use deficit and he approved of the proposed addition. It was noted that a letter was received from Tom Jones, 5224 Brookview Avenue, in support of the proposal. Council Comment /Action Member Paulus asked the proponent to state the hardship in support of the variance request. Mrs. MacPhail said the hardship is the layout of the house, i.e. traffic flow, no eating area in the kitchen and their family is growing. In response to Member Paulus, Planner Aaker stated.that a hardship is tied to the property, is specific to the site and it usually has to do with a general condition present on the site, (lot configuration is not conventional, severe topography, or poor soils.) Planner Aaker. further noted that the subject lot has a unique pie shape. However, a lot coverage variance is difficult to justify regardless of the hardship. Mayor Richards observed that this is dealing with form over substance in that two previous variances were granted a few years ago and lot coverage should have been addressed at that time. He reminded Council of a lot coverage variance that was granted to the property owners at 6510 Gleason Court who wanted to expand their porch; at that time there was no discussion of a hardship. He further said the property is valuable, the family wants to remain and live more comfortably and not allowing them to do this would constitute a hardship. For those reasons he would support granting the variances. Mayor Richards made a motion to grant the two percent lot coverage variance and an additional one foot side street setback variance for Lot 5, Block K, South Harriet Park (5236 Brookview Avenue). Motion was seconded by Member Kelly. No further comment or objection was heard. Rollcall: Ayes: Kelly, Rice, Smith, Richards Nays: Paulus Variances granted. FINAL PIAT APPROVED FOR WOODDALE LAKES ADDITION Presentation by Planner Planner Larsen explained that the subject property is an undeveloped parcel of approximately 3.5 acres and is bounded on the north and east by a pond, on the south by the Crosstown Highway and on the west by a public path within the Wooddale Avenue right of way. Planner Larsen noted that preliminary plat approval for a six lot subdivision was granted by Council on September 23, 1991. The developers are now requesting final plat approval. Several conditions were specified at preliminary plat approval, one of those was the release of right of way by MNDOT for extension of West 64th Street. The developers have been unable to purchase the right of. way from the state. Consequently, the right of way has been moved northward. Small adjustments have been made to Lots 1, 2, and 3 to provide 15 feet of right of way. All the lots continue to meet or exceed the "neighborhood" median sizes and dimensions. Staff would recommend final plat approval subject to: 1) Subdivision dedication based on a land value of $215,000, 2) Executed developers agreement with appropriate security, 3) Department of Natural Resources (DNR) permit, and 4) Executed and recorded 50 foot conservation easement.

A workshop/ informational meeting is scheduled in June, 1992. Planner Larsen defined Transportation Demand Management (TDM) as a set of techniques aimed at reducing traffic (trips) by shifting commuters from driving alone to shared ride arrangements or into non -peak travel periods. The main goal is to move people and information and not vehicles. Three types of techniques are used to accomplish this: 1) Commute alternatives (carpools, transit, walking). 2) Incentives (subsidized bus passes, travel allowances or disincentives such as paid parking). 3) Alternative work arrangements to shift work time or place (flex -time, telecommuting, 4/40 work weeks). TDM involves working through employers, developers and multi- tenant building owners to facilitate these techniques. Two mechanisms commonly used to facilitate these techniques are Transportation Management Organizations (TMO) and Trip Reduction Ordinances. Given the limited success of TMO, the JPO is developing a Trip Reduction Ordinance or Policy,Framework to mandate participation of the private sector. Growth in travel will outpace growth in population, employment and the ability to build more road to accommodate this travel. Even though there is currently a recession in real estate and the general economy, if the built space is filled up there will be problems. In addition, there will be problems during the reconstruction phases of I -494. It will be important to encourage carpooling to utilize the HOV lanes that will be part of the I -494 and 35W reconstruction. Implementation of TDM will contribute to maintaining mobility, air quality and quality of life. The Trip Reduction Ordinance requirements will be phased so as to bring employers and others in slowly and educate them on TDM prior to reconstruction: Phase 1: Before Reconstruction Employers report statistics and develop programs. Phase 2: During Reconstruction Trip reduction targets kick -in and requirements enforced. Phase 3: After Reconstruction Refinements to reflect effectiveness of Phases 1 and 2 and desire to see results beyond reconstruction period. The next steps in implementation are: 1) City staff are now informing council and business groups. 2) JPO's consultant is drafting a Trip Reduction Ordinance or policy statement. 3) JPO will convene a one -day workshop for public and private stakeholders in June. 4) Staff and consultant will then refine the ordinance and the administrative roles. 5) Another workshop will be convened this fall to gain a final consensus on the program. 6) The cities will adopt an ordinance and implement Phase I. Planner Larsen encouraged the Council Members to attend the workshop and informational meeting on June 24, 1992, from 8:30 A.M. to 11:30 A.M. at the Decathlon Club in Bloomington. The consultant, a manager from a city that has implemented such a plan and an executive from a private company that has implemented the'plan will featured. *INSURANCE RENEWALS AWARDED FOR POLICE PROFESSIONAL AND PUBLIC OFFICIAL'S LIABILITY Notion was made by Nember Sally and was seconded by Member Rice for renewal of liability insurance to Scottsdale Insurance Company, sole quote, at $11,523.47 for public officials liability and $27,527.00 for police professional liability.

GEMSTONE REQUEST FOR LEASE OPERATION GRANTED Mayor Richards recalled that Cemstone Products Company wishes to lease City property at I- 494 /County Road 18 to set up a concrete plant operation. They have been awarded the sub - contract for concrete to construct the two mile stretch of the Bloomington ferry bridge over the next three years. At the April 20, 1992 meeting the Council gave conceptual approval for use of City land by Cemstone, subject to Council approval of a lease agreement to be negotiated. Mayor Richards reported that on April 27, 1992, he, together with the Manager and Engineer, met with Cemstone and negotiated a lease agreement. The proposed agreement would incorporate all the terms.and conditions that would give the City a fair economic return on the use of the property. It would enable the City to control and regulate the use of the property, and would provide for cessation of operations if deemed detrimental. Engineer Hoffman answered Member Rice's inquiry about 'proper notification' to cancel the lease by saying Cemstone would be notified within a day that they had thirty days to correct a problem. If the correction was not completed in thirty days, Cemstone would agree to a termination and vacation within sixty days. Member Smith commented that he would prefer pre - payment of the $59,000.00 for the three year lease. Tim Becken, Cemstone Products, explained the payment schedule was proposed because Cemstone would incur setup /site preparation /attorney's fees of approximately $40,000 and asked the Council to consider this in their decision. The main points of the proposed lease are as follows: 1) Length of lease - May 15, 1992 through November 15, 1994. 2) Rental payment by Cemstone of $15,000 for year one to be paid on November 1, 1992; rental payment of $20,000 for year two to be paid on July 1, 1993; and rental payment of $24,000 for year three to be paid on July 1, 1994. Annualized rate for the 2 1/2 years would be $23,600, or a total of $59,000. 3) Proposed site improvements by Cemstone outlined in letter dated April 24, 1992. 4) Contract to include indemnification of the City and a process allowing termination of the contract after proper notification to Cemstone and opportunity to correct any deficiencies. 5) Agreement of one of two options to. be determined by the City prior to the end of the contract, e.g., Cemstone would reclaim the site according to the current plan proposed by City staff, or the payment of $5,000 to the City and.the City would rework the site for their own purpose. 6) Cemstone will construct the site to prevent run -off water from draining into Nine Mile Creek. 7) Hours of plant operation would be 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. If extended hours become necessary, City Manager would be notified in each case. 8) Cemstone would be responsible for payment of taxes and also City Attorney fees relating to contract preparation. Member Smith introduced the following resolution and moved adoption: RESOLUTION BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Edina, Minnesota, that it hereby accepts the proposal to lease City property submitted by Gemstone Products Company dated April 30, 1992, with the exception that the total rental payment of $59,000.00 for the three years be prepaid; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Mayor and Manager are hereby authorized to execute the lease agreement following review and approval thereof by the City Attorney. Motion was seconded by Mayor Richards. Mayor Richards elaborated that a number of other issues were discussed, i.e. placement of the road, screening /landscaping, and. would be incorporated into the lease language to be reviewed by Attorney Gilligan prior to lease signing.

Recommends ❑ To HRA Subject: © To Council PUBLIC HEARING - Action ❑ Motion FIRST READING - ORDINANCE NO. 1 ❑ Resolution 0 Ordinance ❑ Discussion Recommendation: Grant First Reading to Ordinance No. 1. Info /Background On June 1, 1992, the City Council will conduct a Public Hearing for the purpose of considering First Reading of Edina Ordinance No. 1, an Ordinance Codifying the General Ordinances of the City. By enacting Ordinance No. 1, the Council will thereby adopt all of the revised codes. Attached for your consideration, with respect to this hearing, are the following items: 1. The proposed City Council direction 2. Drafts prepared b, Section 215 Section 460 section 1045 (please note that memo and have not time) Code as amended in accordance with the of May 11, 1992. the staff for: - Gambling - Signs - Storage of Vehicles and Equipment these staff proposals are attached to this been included in the code book at this a 3. Edina Ordinance No. 1. An Ordinance Codifying the General Ordinances of the City. 4. A memo from Jerry Gilligan summarizing legal issues relative to the regulation of lawful gambling. 5. A compilation of letters which have been received relative to the codes. _6. A survey conducted by the staff as to the number and location of recreational vehicle and boats in the City. Adoption Process Staff recommends that the Council commence the hearing process by identifying those sections of the code which require further discussion by the Councilmembers or by individuals wishing to testify. Following the conclusion of discussion or testimony on each of the identified sections, the Council,.if it wishes, should offer first reading of each section as modified or revised. Following the offering of First Reading on a section by section basis, staff recommends that the Council then offer Ordinance No. 1 for First Reading. This offering requires a three - fifths favorable vote. However, State law requires a four - fifths favorable vote for adoption of Section 850, the Zoning Ordinance. Therefore, if Ordinance No. 1 is adopted on a three - fifths vote, we recommend that Section 850 be segregated from the balance of the code and acted on separately. On June 15, 1992, or at a later hearing, the Council will consider final enactment of the Codes. On that occasion, the Council need only consider second reading of Edina Ordinance No. 1. The Council need not grant Second Reading to each of the individual sections that it considered on June 1, 1992. As with First Reading, the Zoning Ordinance should be acted on separately if Ordinance No. 1 is enacted by less than a four - fifths vote. Following Second Reading, the code will be effective following the publication of.Ordinance No. 1. Section 215 - Gambling The staff proposal for Section 215 includes the following provisions: 1. Lawful gambling may occur only subject to the issuance of a: permit by the City Manager. 2. No more than two permits could be issued to any one organization in a calendar year. Each permit would be valid for three consecutive days. The City need not require a permit system. However, without such a system, it may be difficult to enforce the limitation on the frequency of events. 3. Lawful gambling could be conducted only in buildings or on lots in the R -1 district except buildings, lots or parcels used for residential purposes. This would effectively limit lawful gambling to churches, schools, parks or other non- residential uses in a single family district. i •• i 4. All prizes or pay -offs from lawful gambling would have to be awarded during the time and at the place described in the permit. 5. The section identifies certain exemptions from the requirements of this section. Some of these exemptions are provided by'Statute; in particular, the State Lottery, Raffles if the value of prizes awarded in a calendar year do not exceed $750.00, and bingo conducted in a nursing home or senior citizen project, subject to certain conditions. In addition, the section provides that sale or redemption of chances through the US Mail are exempt. Section 460 - Signs The staff proposes that the phase out of non - conforming temporary signs be extended to three years from the date of adoption of this section. We believe this will provide ample opportunity for phasing out temporary leasing signs which would be made unlawful by the adoption of Section 460. Section 1045 - Parking and Storage of Vehicles The staff proposes the following changes to Section 1045: 1. Staff has distinguished recreational vehicles from all - terrain vehicles, snowmobiles, and boats to assist in the interpretation of the section. 2. We recommend that storage of RV's, boats, ATVs, snowmobiles, utility trailers, and trailers used to transport any of the above, be limited to the sideyard but no closer than 5 feet to an interior lot line or the rearyard but not closer than 25 feet to the rear lot line. We recommend that two such vehicles may be stored outdoors provided that only one of the two may be a recreational vehicle. In other words, the second vehicle may be a boat, utility trailer, ATV, or snowmobile. We also recommend that any such vehicle stored outdoors must be owned or leased by the occupant of the premises where it is stored. In addition, any vehicle may not be stored closer to the buildable area of an adjoining lot than to the principal building on the lot where it is stored. 3. Section 1045 also contains a variance process whereby the City may consider variance requests from owners of RV's and boats, etc., who cannot store their vehicle in either the sideyard or the rearyard in conformance with this section. Staff proposes that such variance requests-be considered by a board, appointed by the City Manager. If the Council wishes, such variance requests could be considered by the Board of Appeals and Adjustments. Decisions of the board could be appealed to the City Council. Hearings before the board or the Council would be publicized by mailed notices 3 n to owners of property within 200 feet of,the property wishing a variance. Staff believes that the proposed changes to Section 1045 are consistent with other requirements of the City Code which require that the front yard areas of residences remain relatively unencumbered by buildings and structures. The setbacks proposed for outdoor storage of RV's are identical to the setbacks required for attached garages. Staff also would direct the Council's attention to the attached memorandum, that compiles the results of •our survey of the community as to the number and location of storage for RV's and other similar vehicles. 0 City of Edina Amusements Section 215 - Gambling 215.01 Definitions.

First, let me emphasize that BOMA is an association of professional property managers that share your objective of aesthetically attractive commercial properties within your community. While we would prefer that the need for temporary leasing signs did not exist, current extremely competitive market conditions and the signs' proven effectiveness at attracting tenants make them an essential marketing tool in today's environment. In particular, those properties in close proximity to similar properties in neighboring communities that permit a temporary leasing sign would be placed at a serious competitive disadvantage. We respectfully recommend the following changes to your proposed Sign Ordinance: 1) The size limit of 16 square feet, same as the proposed limit on "For Sale" signs is acceptable (24 square feet would be preferable). An exception for a 32 square foot sign is requested when directed to traffic on a major highway, defined as those posted with at least a 55 mph speed limit. 2) Buildings with more than one frontage should be permitted an additional sign if the first sign cannot be positioned so as to be visible from both streets. For example, property may have freeway visiblity on one side and primary City street access on the opposite side. 3) Signs may be double faced to be visible when approaching from either direction. 4) Signs must be maintained in good condition and promptly removed after the building is leased. 5) The current provision for incorporating the leasing message into the building's permanent sign should be retained as an alternative to temporary signs.

Rosland, City Manager FROM: Jerome P. Gilligan DATE: May 26,1992 RE: City Regulation of Lawful Gambling In the Council's review of the draft Code Section 215 regulating lawful gambling in the City, I thought it helpful to provide a brief overview of the City's authority to regulate lawful gambling. Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 349 contains the provisions of Minnesota law which regulate "lawful gambling ". Lawful gambling is defined in Chapter 349 as the operation, conduct or sale of bingo, raffles, paddlewheels, tip boards and pull -tabs. Chapter 349 provides the standards for operation of lawful gambling in Minnesota and provides for the creation of the Gambling Control Board to regulate lawful gambling in the State. Under Section 349.213 the City has the authority to adopt more stringent regulation of lawful gambling within its jurisdiction. This authority to impose more stringent regulation includes the prohibition of lawful gambling. However, under Chapter 349 some lawful gambling activities are exempt from regulation or prohibition by the City. The activities that are exempt from regulation or prohibition by the City are as follows: (a) Bingo conducted in a nursing home or. senior citizen housing project or by a senior citizen organization if all of the following conditions are met: (i) prizes for a single bingo game do not exceed $10; (ii) total prizes awarded at a single bingo occasion do not exceed $200; (iii) no more than two bingo occasions are held by the organization or at the facility each week; (iv) only members of the organization or residents of the nursing home or housing project are allowed to play in a bingo game; (v) no compensation is paid to the persons who conduct the bingo; (vi) a manager is appointed to supervise the bingo; and (vii) the manager registers with the Gambling Control Board; and DORSEY & WHITNEY .\ F�ARTNF:NNHIP 1NCLl: DINO YROFf�i1DNAL (bRPORATIDNR (b) Raffles conducted by an organization if the value of all raffle prizes awarded by the organization in a calendar year do not exceed $750. Because of this statutory exemption these activities are listed as being exempt from regulation by the City in draft Code Section 215. The City's authority to regulate lawful gambling is subject to the following: (a) The City may charge a permit fee of up to $100 for the conduct of lawful gambling exempt from licensing by the State. The City need not require the issuance of a permit for the conduct of lawful gambling. However, requiring permits allows the City to monitor the number of ocassions on which an organization conducts lawful gambling to ensure compliance with the two ocassion per year limit contained in draft Code Section 215. (b) The City may require up to 10% of the net profits derived from lawful gambling in the City be spent for specific expenditures. (c) The City may require that up to 10% of the net profits derived from lawful gambling be contributed to a fund administered by the City or other local government unit for disbursement by the City or local government unit. (d) The City may not require a license or permit to conduct gambling by organizations or sales by distributors of gambling equipment that are licensed by the Gambling Control Board. (e) The City may require the organization conducting lawful gambling to expend all or a portion of its expenditures on lawful purposes conducted or located in the City's "trade area ". The City has the ability to designate what it considers to be its trade area, but the trade area so designated must at a minimum include each city adjacent to the City. (f) Any more stringent regulation of lawful gambling must apply equally to all forms of lawful gambling, except that the City may prohibit paddlewheels. (g) To cover costs of the City in regulating lawful gambling, the City may impose a local gambling tax on each organization licensed by the State operating lawful gambling in the City of up to 3% of gross -2- DORSEY & WHITNEY A I'. +RT.-MR111V INCLUUI \U PRO-IONALIO-MATIU \•R l .44 receipts of such organization less prizes paid out. Money collected from such tax may only be used to regulate lawful gambling and is in lieu of all other local taxes and local investigation fees. (h) The regulation of lawful gambling by the City must apply equally to the organizations authorized by Chapter 349 to conduct lawful gambling; i.e. the City may not permit schools and churches to conduct lawful gambling, while prohibiting all other fraternal, religious, veterans or other nonprofit organizations from conducting lawful gambling.

They are in the streets and on snow banks and in many cases never picked up. Many towns and villages require shopper -type newspapers either be delivered to the door, the residence, or the paper company shall install a paper holder on the mail box stand or on a separate post. Requiring a paper holder or delivery to the resident's door would eliminate wet or blowing papers from the lawns and streets of Edina.

Yours truly, i Ro er ac ona RAM /jdmr April 22, 1992 CODE COMMENTS Edina City Hall 4801 West 50th Street Edina, MN 55424 CODE COMMENTS I recommend that the city strongly consider passing an ordinance banning unsolicited materials being tossed into residents' yards by advertisers and by the Edina Sun newspaper, especially the tossing of the Edina Sun newspaper into a resident's yard after the resident has repeatedly asked the Sun to discontinue delivery of the Sun. I have repeatedly asked via letter to Yvonne Klinnert, managing editor of the Sun, that the Sun not be delivered to me or tossed into my yard. I am periodically out of town overnight and feel it is a clue to burglars that no one is home when the Sun is in the middle of my yard. I do my best to have someone watch my house (I stop delivery of my mail and the Minneapolis paper), but anticipating when the Sun will (and where) hit my yard is difficult. I don't feel I should have to ask someone when I am out of town during the week to check my yard frequently to see if the Sun should be on it. I therefore do not want to receive the paper. I also feel that the tossing of unsolicited newspapers on my yard is littering, pure and simple. My concerns above also apply to realtors and various other advertisers placing materials on my mailbox or in my doors. I also feel that the city should keep this littering by the Sun in mind when deciding whether or.not to hire the Sun as the official city newspaper.

Minnesota 55425 Dear Mayor Richards and Council Members: the purpose of this letter is to petition the Edina Citv Council to enact and enforce an ordinance in zoned residential areas which would ban ground feeding of birds and wild animals and which would restrict the size and number of bird feeders per square feet of property. The reason I am taking this action is because of the situation I have lived with for several years. My next door neighbor has-been overfeeding birds ever since she has lived there which is about 16 -17 years. She throws out hundreds of pounds of bird feed each year. This has caused hundreds of birds to migrate to her property. Unfortunately for me, I live next door. The lots in this area are small 00 foot lots), and the number of birds in this area is overwhelming. There are hundreds of sparrows and starlings, and worst of all, about forty to 50 pigeons. My windows, house, garage, stoops and sidewalks are covered with pigeon droppings all year. Every time a car goes by, a door opens or closes, or any ether kind of disturbance will cause the pigeons to take flight from her yard. flying most of the time over my house, leaving their offensive droppings on my windows and buildings. These pigeons also roost on my house. The sparrows and starlings are a menace also. My stoops. sidewalks and garbage cans are always covered with their droppings.. I. have had sparrows come down the chimney into the furnace and fly out right by my head, which needless to say is shocking. We had to dismantle the furnace because we heard a bird in the furnace which didn't come out. The bird was found dead in the flue. A gas repair person found a dead bird in my dryer. In the winter when there hasn't been snow, the ground along the property line is white with bird droppings. They roost in several lilac bushes planted along the property line. These bushes are not mine, so i have no control over that. We had lived here for over 20 years before she moved in and started this excessive bird feeding. This problem didn't exist then, so there is no doubt in my mind that this situation is being caused by excessive feeding. There are large areas in her yard where bird seed covers the ground; you can't see the ground for the bird seed. In addition to that, she fills all her bird feeders and sprinkles bird seed allover the yard. I am inclined to believe this is worst bird infestation in the whole area. Visitors remark that they have never seen that many pigeons and birds in a residential area. I sincerely hope the Council will favorably consider my request and pass ordinance restrictions on such behavior. 1. along with my neighbors, who are offended by this situation have no other recourse in`this city other than the city health department taking action against this behavior by suing her. When I talked to Mr. Velde about this he was pessimistic about a favorable ruling because of a court ruling in a northern suburb. I am enclosing pictures I have taken for the purpose of showing you how bad this situation is. Thank you for your time and consideration. �-incerely yours, NA Donna ivl.

It is our position that eliminating the placement of temporary commercial leasing signs in Edina will be detrimental to business at a time when there is immense competition in the commercial real estate leasing market. While we agree that there are many temporary commercial signs in Edina, we believe it is a reflection of a soft commercial market. We also believe that signs are an integral part of the leasing process. And finally, we believe the suggestions made by BOMA and approved by our Association represent a reasonable compromise on the issue. Minneapolis Area Association representatives are willing to work with you and BOMA representatives on this important sign issue.

Richards City of Edina - 4801 W. 50th Street Edina, Minnesota 55424 Dear Mayor. Richards and Council Members: This letter is in response to the proposed ordinance, section number 460, for buildings, constructions and signs in the City of Edina. It is my understanding that the Council is considering extensive overhauling of the sign code for the city. I have attended one meeting and have reviewed the proposed draft copy of the sign regulations. Because of my experience of seven plus years as a commercial REALTOR I would like to suggest a change in the proposed ordinance. In section number 460.03 Subd. 9 I would strongly recommend a change. It is very important, for the economic success of commercial properties, to be able to put "For Lease" signs on the property. It is my understanding that the proposed regulations would prohibit temporary leasing signs on the property. If this were the case, and the regulations were passed without amendments, it would put many property owners at a severe disadvantage. It is my opinion that leasing signs is one of the top three marketing tools in the success of leasing a property. The proposed regulation allowing an increase of the permanent sign would not be practical or efficient in place of temporary leasing signs. -It would be very difficult for property owners to.modify or reconstruct their monument signs to accommodate leasing signs. I hope that this section of the proposed regulations will be modified to include for leasing the similar regulations that are being considered under Subd. 8 for temporary "For Sale" signs on existing buildings. If you or any other counsel members have questions regarding my comments please feel free to give me a call Sincerely, Thomas W. Junnila REALTOR WdshCompanies March 24, 1992 Mr. Frederick F. Richards Mayor City of Edina 4801 W. 50th Street Edina, MN 55424 Dear Fred: •Ve sn Comoanies •200 West '9th ss! --len Pra-ne. ,�,2.944.58t0 I am a commercial real estate broker who currently is responsible for leasing over 300,000 square feet of commercial space in the City of Edina. Over the last five years, I have assisted dozens of Edina business owners in leasing or buying commercial real estate. It was recently brought to my attention that the City of Edina is considering passing new regulations with respect to the signage which is permitted with the City. I subsequently obtained a copy of the proposed changes and examined it carefully. After reviewing this information with various Edina commercial real estate owners we found the changes you are proposing regarding building leasing or rental signs overly restrictive and impractical for the following reasons: 1. Many commercial buildings currently do not have building identification signs and therefore would not offer a place to incorporate building rental information. The way the proposed changes read, if a commercial building which is currently leased to a single tenant were to become available, the owner would be forced at considerable expense to erect a permanent building identification sign with the leasing information in one corner just to market the building. 2. Many of the buildings which currently do have building identification signs do not have an area to accommodate rental information. To add to these signs could cost the owner a great deal of money and is simply impractical for the relatively short period of time it takes to lease a building.. 3. The proposed total maximum size of leasing signage is 16 square feet. Assuming the sign is two sided, as many are, this means each side can be 8 square feet. This is ridiculously small to be seen from a road such as Highway 169 and could endanger lives of those people traveling on the highway if someone were to try and slow down enough to copy a name and phone number. Ar -d csate_- e mrtwm _ .xeraoo rre ,.cwune�!�_ ca ,r l 4. Most commercial leasing signs are placed on buildings located with commercial building areas such as the Washington Avenue "Golden Triangle" area or the Edina Interchange Park and are not visible to residential or high traffic areas and, in fact, are never seen by the majority of the residents or visitors. These areas should not be regulated as strictly as a retail area such as Southdale which the general public passes by on a regular basis. 5. The restrictions you have proposed will, without a doubt, make it difficult for a .business owner looking for a new location to locate an available building that might work within the City of Edina. If leasing information becomes a part of building identification signage, each potential business would literally have to call on hundreds of buildings (the majority of which would have no available space) to locate one that might work. This will mean without a doubt, the building owners and the City will lose businesses and tax dollars as a result. If you haven't noticed, commercial real estate is experiencing very difficult times. Don't throw salt in this wound by punishing owners of commercial properties who have chosen to invest in your City. Consider the points I have made when you are reviewing this new sign proposal and consider allowing temporary leasing signage to remain as it is, at least until commercial real estate recovers from its current state.

April 3, 1992 Mayor Fred Richards City of Edina 4801 W. 50th St. Edina, MN 55424 Re: PROPOSED EDINA SIGN Dear Mayor Richards: As an Edina resident since 1975 and as a partner in an Edina -based commercial- industrial real estate firm, I'm pleased to see the city address the issue of - temporary and permanent signage in our community. As I understand, the concern the city has with regard to commercial signage. is that "temporary" signs become "permanent" and with normal wear and tear, begin to blight the community, particularly in more visible areas such as Washington Avenue South and France Avenue South. Signage remains as one of the principal methods we have in the real estate community to attract prospective buyers- and tenants for buildings we own, property manage, or broker through lease or sales activity. When our firm brokers a building, the owners expect, and sometime demand, that a sign advertising the availability of the property be installed. Unfortunately, market conditions today have created a condition where many buildings suffer a partial. or complete vacancy and consequently many more "For Sale" or "For Lease" signs have appeared and have remained for longer periods of time than owners or brokers would like. Some predict that the oversupply of space, particularly class B and C office space, will be common for the next three to five years. Perhaps a compromise to satisfy the continued need for advertising a property's availability as well as controlling the blight excessive signage can create is to: 1. Limit the sign to a 4' x 6' or even 4' by 4' size. 2. Require that signage be restricted to a back -to -back sign, except where there is more than one frontage.. 3. Require that the sign be maintained properly, including painted posts. 7625 METRO BOULEVARD, SUITE 300, EDINA, MINNESOTA 55439 (612) 896 -1101 Mayor Fred Richards April 3, 1992 Page two By requiring the above three items, an immediate beneficial impact would be realized, although a six month phase -in timeframe may be necessary.

The article I speak of is the one on the gambling issue and on whether or not to put a stop to it all. I am opposed to gambling of every form. I feel this way primarly because it affects people who can least afford to gamble their money with little chance of recovery. I hope you will take into consideration my position on this issue. Thank you for your time. Sincerely yours, "7z . p6tZ On, Donald N. Peterson May 5, 1992 Code Comments City of Edina 4801 West 50th Street Edina, MN 55474 RE: Section 215 - Gambling Dear Council Members, We are writing as concerned citizens of Edina in opposition to Section 215 relating to gambling. We believe Edina is a great community in which to live and raise our families. We want our quality community to be enriched and improved. The introduction of "organized gambling" would certainly be inconsistent with that objective. However, proposed Section 215 would not only eliminate "organized gambling" but would also eliminate many organization fund - raisers which are not offensive nor morally reprehensible. We oppose the elimination of those organization fund raisers involving raffles, which are once or twice a year events, which primarily involve the members and friends of the organization, and where the proceeds are dedicated to charitable or other community causes. These events are not viewed as gambling and certainly not organized gambling. Payments for "chances" are looked upon as donations. These payments are voluntary and there is no pressure or "arm- twisting" to make payments beyond a person's means. The proceeds of fund raising events involving raffles which have been held within the City of Edina, have to the best of our knowledge and belief, been used for very worthwhile purposes. We are not oblivious to the many evils of gambling, both lawful and criminal, which have been introduced into our state over the last five years. Some will argue that fund raising events which include raffles introduce our children and grandchildren to gambling and are the first lesson to becoming an addictive gambler. As in our areas, our social concerns should be tempered and balanced with moderation. We simply don't believe that passing Section 215 will - have any material effect on the addictive gambling population or the growth of gambling in Minnesota. Fund raising events involving raffles were held in Edina long before 1987, when the current expansion of organized lawful gambling began in Minnesota. We simply believe Edina organizations should be allowed to raise funds in these traditional ways. These inoffensive fund raising events should not be outlawed as a statement of righteousness or morality against the growing threat of legalized and criminal gambling in Minnesota. To do so would be outlaw harmless and moral conduct. rn May 12, 1992 Michael & Cynthia Olauson 5711 Grove Street Edina, MN 55436 Code Comments Edina City Hall 4801 West 50th Street Edina, MN 55424 Dear City Council Members: This letter expresses concern regarding Section 215, the proposed city ordinance, Prohibition of Gambling & Raffles. We have lived in Edina for 10 years and our children have attended Edina Schools for six years. Such an ordinance could have a significant impact on the fund raising capabilities of our neighborhood school. Our largest fundraiser, a carnival, includes such games as a cake walk, raffle and fish pond. This carnival might have to be eliminated under the proposed ordinance which in turn would reduce our budget for enrichment programs. These programs include Art Masterpiece, Junior Grest Books and Odyssey of the Mind. Unless the City has a plan to add money to the Edina school budget, we urge you to NOT pass this ordinance prohibiting all forms of lawful gambling. Perhaps a compromise ordinance could be written that allows certain forms of school -based gaming.

FOR MANY YEARS WE HAVE USED A CAKE RAFFLE TO SUPPLEMENT THE INCOME OF OUR PACK. THIS AMOUNT NOW APPROACHES ONE THIRD OF OUR INCOME. IT IS RAISED BY NINE CAKE RAFFLES, ONE AT THE END OF EACH PACK MEETING. THIS TYPE OF FUND RAISING DEALS ONLY WITH OUR GROUP. IT IS CONSIDERED AN ENJOYABLE EVENT BY OUR CUBS AND A TOLERABLE FUND RAISER BY PARENTS. RECENTLY WE HAVE HEARD THAT THE CITY OF EDINA IS CONSIDERING AN ORDINANCE THAT MAY PUT AN END OR A LIMIT ON THIS TYPE OF FUND RAISING. WE URGE YOU TO CONSIDER THE EFFECT THIS ORDINANCE MAY HAVE ON GROUPS SUCH AS OURS. WE WOULD HAVE TO RAISE OUR DUES BY ONE THIRD TO OVERCOME THE LOSS OF OUR CAKE RAFFLE. ANOTHER OPTION, THAT WE HAVE REJECTED CONSISTENTLY IN OUR PACK, WOULD BE TO SEND THE BOYS OUT ON THE STREET SELLING. OUR SCOUTS ARE IN GRADES ONE THROUGH SIX. WE CONSIDER THIS TOO YOUNG TO BE SAFE GOING HOUSE TO HOUSE. I ALSO DOUBT THAT MORE CHILDREN AT THEIR DOOR SELLING THINGS IS WHAT EDINA RESIDENTS WANT. WE ARE ENCLOSING A PETITION FROM OUR PARENTS TO SHOW THEIR FEELINGS TOWARDS KEEPING THE CAKE RAFFLE A LEGAL FUNDRAISER IN OUR PACK. WE HOPE THAT THE WHILE MAKING THE LAWS IN OUR CITY, FOR OUR PROTECTION, YOU DON'T MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR US TO DO OUR JOB.

Introduction Edina City Council Meeting Section 1045 Hearing May 4, 1992 A. An Edina Resident as an adult since 1985. B. I grew up in this community. C. This is my first involvement with our city government, up to this time I have been very satisfied with the way Edina has been governed. II. After reading the proposed changes, my first question was, "Why is an even more restrictive ordinance than our current regulation necessary ?" Edina's present ordinance dealing with R.V.s is already one of the more restrictive in the Metro Area. Why the need for more exclusions? I asked each-of you that question and if I might summarize your main points, you all seemed to feel that these R.V.s, as defined in this proposal, " Campers, pickups with campers or mounted toppers,mobile homes, all terrain vehicles, all marine craft, camping trailers and snow mobiles and trailers used to transport recreational vehicles. ", are visually offensive to some of our residents in Edina. A number of you mentioned the rights of our neighbors to a view that doesn't contain the offending vehicles. Two of you mentioned as justification for a more restrictive ordinance, situations that are already prohibited by the ordinance we now have. As a community, we seem to have a hard time enforcing the law that we currently have. But you all seemed to agree that our neighbors rights are infringed on by these R.V.s and they reduce the attractiveness and potentially the value of our city. III. My strong opposition to'this proposed ordinance comes from my belief that it is based on an opinion that has no factual support, it unnecessarily restricts our rights to use our own property and will create severe hardship for a number of our residents, it is unenforceable and will lead to widespread civil disobedience, it creates a new city bureaucracy at a time when we can ill afford a new expense, it has a negative impact on our state and national economy, and will ultimately lead to a reduction in the marketability of our homes in Edina and a consequent decrease in the value of our property. Edina City Council Meeting page 2. IV. First of all what is offensive to people is a never ending list of different things. What is objectionable is a very subjective thing. A. Swing sets, House colors, fences, lawn buildings, vans, suburbans, _ etc.,etc. It would be impossible to protect our home owners from,,-all these things, and it'would be ridiculous to try! B. For example, I find the sight of foreign cars in our city objectionable.- To me they represent an export of capital we vitally need in this country and the weakening of our largest domestic manufacturing industry. This impacts anyone who invests and anyone who hopes to some day enjoy the fruits of those investments. I.t also weakens communities that depend on suppliers to the auto industry such as our Metro Area. C. My opinion still doesn't give me the right to advocate the banning of these vehicles from the driveways of my neighbors. V. We have been led to believe that parking an R.V. in your driveway will reduce our property values. A. This has not been true in my case. B. My assessed tax valuation, based on actual sales in my neighborhood, has risen substantially. C. This was while my R.V. was parked at my home. D. This was during the time our current ordinance was in force. E. Our opinion is just not supported by the facts. VI. This Draconian ordinance will not allow us to have free use of the one R.V. we are now allowed to park or properly store on our own property. A. Many of us do not have access to a convenient storage or parking alternative. Can the city council provide one? B. Out of town guests, who travel by -R.V., will be prohibited by the city from staying on our property for more than two days. C. A resident who takes his boat out of storage on Saturday, parks it in his driveway, is in violation of the ordinance on Tuesday before he goes fishing the following weekend. D. Whose rights should take precedence? The taxpayer on his own property or the rights of a "visually offended neighbor or passerby." Edina City Counci -1 Meeting page.3. VII. This ordinance is.basically unenforceable and will be widely disobeyed. A. After receiving a copy of the proposal, I drove through my immediate neighborhood and observed roughly, forty violations. It will have widespread negative impact, on Edina home owners. B. There were also four violations of our current ordinance, apparently we don't enforce this more limited one. Why then do we need to pass even greater restrictions, if we can't enforce the restrictions we now have ?. C. We now have one officer who polices our present ordinance, is the city proposing to add ten or fifteen more policemen to enforce these new rules? D. If not, what message does the passage of restrictions and then ignoring them send to our children. VIII. The proposal mentions a creation of a five member commission to receive applications for permits for an exception to the ordinance, a fee is to be paid, a bureaucratic procedure is to be followed, hearings are to be conducted and an appeals process is to be set up. Do we really need this? IX. These are almost exclusively American companies'-products that we ban and restrict with this law. A. In addition, this is a very important manufacturing industry for the state of Minnesota. Some of the restricted Mn. products and their communities are as follows: Arctic Cat, Thief River Falls, Mn.; Lund Boats, New York Mills, Mn.; Polaris, Roseau, Mn.; Alumacraft, St. Peter, Mn.; Larson Boats, Crestliner Boats, and Glasstron Boats, all of Little Falls, Mn. B. What would these companies say or these city governments do if we ban or severely restrict their products' use in Edina? J Edina.City Council Meeting page 4. X. Finally, I am convinced that this ordinance will reduce the attractiveness of Edina as a place to live and will cause our property values to drop. A. There are over 1,100,000 of these "offensive" vehicles registered or licensed in our state. That represents hundreds of thousands.of affluent, potential, home buyers. ( This figure doesn't include topper owners, this definition of R.V. is unique to this ordinance. ) B. Why would they want to consider our community, when they buy a home? There are many attractive alternatives for a potential buyer. For example none of our surrounding suburban communities are this harsh. A brief summary of their rules follows: Community ---------------- Eden Prairie Minnetonka Richfield Edina (current) Edina (proposed) Number of R.V.s allowed ----------------------- 2 4 no stated limit 1 0 Restrictions low low low moderate exceptions permitted by special commission C. Shumachers and the Trudeaus - Full timers. D. When I moved into Edina in 1985, we checked the ordinance and since it was reasonable and allowed my R.V., we bought our current home. E. If you begin to exclude people like the Trudeaus' childr=n and like our family, you are excluding close to one million affluent potential home buyers. F. Property values in Edina will suffer, as this ordinance becomes widely known and people look elscwhere for homes. G. It is in our collective best interest to be more tolerant of our neighbors' right to own and use something that we may not like. XI. In Mammary this is simply a bad law. It will have an adverse impact on our state economy, it is unfair to property owners, it will be unenforceable, and it will ultimately reduce our property values. My recommendation is that we leave well enough alone and leave the ordinance that we currently have in place. Thank you for this opportunity, to address the council. CODE COMMENTS April 29, 1992 City Counsel City of Edina 4801 West 50th Street Edina, Minnesota 55424 RE: Recreational Vehicle Permit Proposal Dear Counsel Members: As a long time resident of this City, I would object to a proposal that I must get a permit if I ever keep my 17 foot speedboat on a trailer in my driveway for more than 48 hours. I store my boat every winter. However, it is not always possible to immediately place it in storage or immediately go to the lake when I remove it from storage. Although having the boat in the driveway is an inconvenience to me, I often have it in the driveway for a week both in the spring and the fall. It would be a great inconvenience for me to obtain a permit or solicit the approval of my neighbors in order to do this. Please do not impose restrictions on the ability to have .a boat in a residential driveway during the boating season. Thank you. Very truly yours, r ld J agley 7113 Glouchester Ave. Edina, MN 55425 May 9, 1992- To: The Edina City Council From: Karn Hill Re: Long term parking of Recreational Vehicles etc. in residential neighborhoods. It is my understanding that the Council will be considering the above issue at tonight's Council meeting. I would like to express the wish that recreational vehicles, trucks, large boats and the like be banned from long term parking on residential lots. They are not in keeping with the residential ambience of our Edina neighborhoods. Tha k you. ft 0'" 0-01" Karn Ann Hill CODE COMMENTS Russell F. Nelson 7117 West Shore Drive Edina, Minnesota 55435 -4040 (612) 922 -9265 April 29, 1992 City of Edina Attn: City Council 4801 W. 50th St. Edina, MN 55424 RE: Proposed change for Recreational Vehicle Parking Dear Council: I would like to express my concern regarding the proposed changes in the recreational vehicle parking regulations. The proposed changes are a radical change from the current regulations and are unnecessary. When I bought my home in Edina I checked with the city about the regulations concerning the parking of recreational vehicles in the city. Based upon the current law, I purchased my home. 'I may not have bought my home had the new proposal been in effect. Why make a change when the existing laws are good enough? In my view these are the benefits and problems: Benefits - The city will look nicer if the old, beat up, junky vehicles are regulated off peoples property. Problems - There is an environmental problem. If most RVs must be stored off site, there will be countless trips to store and retrieve the units. Thousands of gallons of gasoline will have to be burned in this procedure. What a waste. - There is an economic problem. First, the RV owner will have to pay for a permit. Secondly, a storage cost for the RV will be incurred on a periodic basis. Thirdly, there will be tremendous cost for gasoline)to drive back and forth to get the RVs. Finally, the city will incur costs to pay the permitting committee. City of Edina -2- April 29, 1992 There is an inconsistency within the city. RVs provide an opportunity for quality family time. The city at the community center and in the public schools encourage quality family time. Now the city is trying to make it difficult to have more frequent family recreational time (that they are trying to encourage). It will be very time consuming ' storing and retrieving RVs because storage locations are so far away. The spontaneous usage of RVs will be virtually impossible. This situation is a terrible inconsistency. - The quality of life will decrease. We pride ourselves that we have a great quality of life in Minnesota. Part of this is the easy access to recreational pursuits. The proposed RV parking laws will decrease our opportunity for certain amounts of recreation, and, therefore, our quality of life will suffer. - There is no provision in the proposal for the "grandfathering" of existing parking practices. Nor is there and explanation of the criteria on how permits would be granted. This proposal is too vague in these important areas. - This proposal will pit neighbor against neighbor. Neighborhood tensions could (and probably would) rise because of the permitting process. I don't like the barking of a dog behind my house but I put up with it to keep good neighbor relations. I sympathize with the few folks who have beat -up, old RVs and boats permanently parked next door. I sympathize with the few folks that have rusty cars parked next door. But I am pro - family and I am for maintaining and increasing the access and availability to positive family recreational activities. This new proposal is anti - family and pro- aesthetics. I'll take the pro- family position any day. Please vote pro - family and vote against this proposal. Very truly yours, Russell F. Nelson Gerald E. Hobbs 6904 Hillcrest Lane Edina, Minnesota 55435 May 7, 1992 Fred Richards, Mayor City of Edina 4801 West 50th Street Edina, Minnesota 55424 Re: Storage Of Recreational Vehicles Dear Mayor Richards: On May 4, The Edina City Council heard numerous presentations and comments from citizens both in support of and in opposition to the proposed change in Section 1045. I would like to be counted as a supporter of the proposed change. One of the most vocal opponents of the proposed change was Mr. Greg Carlin, a resident of 6901 Hillcrest Lane since 1985 and the owner of (1) a large mobile home, (2) a Chevrolet Van, (3) an Oldsmobile sedan, (4) a Buick Regal, and (5) an "older" red Ford pick -up with topper. He has a two-car garage. My family and I have lived across the street from Mr. Carlin at 6904 Hillcrest Lane since 1969. We chose this property in part because it was located in an attractive neighborhood of well- maintained homes and yards. We are distressed by the sight from our property of this large RV parked about eight months a year in the drive -way across the street at 6901, and I have little doubt that its presence adversely affects our property value. One of the questions asked at the May 4 meeting was whether a complainant had voiced her objection to a neighbor's RV to that neighbor. Her response was no, that she did not want to start a neighborhood dispute. I think that many Edinans feel the same way; we seek harmony with our neighbors. Unfortunately, this also makes us victims, since the RV owners show no such reluctance to insist on their "right' to park these vehicles without regard to the sensibilities of their neighbors. In reality, no compromise between neighbors is very likely, since it is a zero -sum issue. I am sure that most of us who support the proposal have no wish to deprive RV owners of the pleasure they get from their 'toys ", but l ;f like all toys, they should be put away when not in use. If the commercial storage rate of $25 per month (quoted by a participant in the'May 4 meeting) is anywhere near correct, the RV owners' reluctance to accept this reasonable alternative to neighborhood strife says a lot about how they feel about the rights of the rest of us to the quiet enjoyment of our properties without visual pollution. For every RV parked in a drive -way, there are probably three or four unhappy neighbors next door and across the street. For other homeowners this is not an immediate problem, but it is a continuing threat, and if not now controlled by a far - sighted council, it will soon be out of control. Remediation will become increasingly difficult and the ageing RVs will become increasingly unsightly. I am enclosing a photograph taken from my kitchen window about 30 days ago. It speaks for itself. Thank you for your consideration of my views. ' Sincerely, �� W zo It ON IS y _ • �' L �...4 •� -ter,. - r� NANCY L. VANBENTHUYSEN 6944 HILLCREST LANE .EDINA, MN 55435 MAY 12, 1992 CODE COMMENTS Edina City Hall 4801 West 50th Street Edina MN 55424 RE: SECTION 1045: PROPOSED CHANGE TO RECREATION VEHICLE STORAGE Dear Council Members: From May through October, we like to use our minivan camping vehicle to explore our state and.the surrounding areas. Because we still hold full time positions, this means mostly weekend trips. The minivan sits on our driveway, rather than being placed in the garage, because of its height. Because it has a bed, sink, stove, and refrigerator our minivan is classed as a recreational vehicle. Besides the extra, unneeded use of fuel, it would be a great inconvenience to store our vehicle off of our property, retrieve it for each minitrip, and return it to this offsite at the end of each minitrip. (Our present indoor winter storage area is located one hour away). I find it offensive to have the proposed restriction be placed on my seasonal hobby because recreational vehicles are thought to be offensive by a few Edina residents. Motor vehicles, boats, and snowmobiles are an integral part of our modern world. They are present because a large number of our neighbors find pleasure in using and owning them. Rather than being offended, I am delighted when a family has a vehicle to assist them in their exploration of this great state and nation. I am also proud to be a resident of Edina. I appreciate the efforts of you and others to maintain a clean, pleasant, and progressive place to live. I enjoy our parks and neighborhoods and am proud of the appearance of our industrial areas. In my opinion, the inclusion of a licensed and maintained recreational vehicle on home property is no more offensive than a separate garage or storage shed. I urge you to remove the proposed change from Section 1045. The present restriction of one operable recreational vehicle per property should be sufficient for enforcement purposes to achieve reasonable neighborhood aesthetics. Sincerely, Z Nancy L.VanBenthuysen Lynn W. Gallup 5932 Grove Street Edina. MN 55436 Mav 13. 1992 Dear Mavor Richards. I am writing in connection with the debate concerning parking control of RV's. I read about this in the Sun - Current. It is my opinion that in matters of this sort it is easy to have the original goal warped in some way which prevents consensus. In this case the emphasis seems to be too much on restriction. and that is not what anyone really wants. If an RV could be made to be invisible there wouldn't even be any debate. What is important. in other words. is the visual conditions under which the RV is parked. Following this line of reasoning. one should not really care if the RV is parked in a drivewav or near a lot - line if it is sufficiently unobtrusive. I suggest an ordinance should be drafted along the following lines: 1.) No RV may be continuously parked such that it extends more than two feet beyond the nominal front line of the house. This is regardless of the surface upon which it is parked. whether it be on a driveway. pad or grass. 2.) Any RV parked as in (1) but within 15 feet of a lot line must be substantially shielded from the view of the adjoining house by a suitable privacy.fence or equivalent approved method. 3.) Aav RV parked in accord with (1) and (2) may not be "lived in" for more than 48 hours. I believe the majority of RV owners would not be inconvenienced by this kind of ordinance. It would be an ordinance having an emphasis on maintaining Edina's beauty rather than on restriction of its citizens. I formerly had an RV and I built a special driveway and fence for it because I didn't care to look at the thing any more than I am sure my neighbor would have. I never had a particle of indication from my, neighbors that they were upset. To the contrary. they felt the fence enhanced their property.

We believe Edina is a great community in which to live and raise our families. We want our quality community to be enriched and improved. The introduction of "organized gambling" would certainly be inconsistent with that objective. However, proposed Section 215 would not only eliminate "organized gambling" but would also eliminate many organization fund - raisers which are not offensive nor morally reprehensible. We oppose the elimination of those organization fund raisers involving raffles, which are once or twice a year events, which primarily involve the members and friends of.the organization, and where the proceeds are dedicated to charitable or other community causes. These events are not viewed as.gambling,and certainly not organized gambling. Payments for "chances" are looked upon as donations. These payments are voluntary and there is no pressure or "arm- twisting" to make payments beyond a person's means. The proceeds of fund raising events involving raffles which have been held within the City of Edina, have to, the best of our knowledge and belief, been used for very worthwhile purposes. We are not oblivious to the many evils of gambling, both lawful and criminal, which have been introduced into our state over the last five years. Some will argue that fund raising events which include raffles introduce our children and grandchildren to gambling and are the first lesson to becoming an addictive gambler. As in our areas, our social concerns should be tempered and balanced with moderation. We simply don't believe that passing Section 215 will have any material effect on the addictive gambling population or the growth of gambling in Minnesota. Fund raising events involving raffles were held in Edina long before 1987, when the current expansion of organized lawful gambling began in Minnesota. We simply believe Edina organizations should be allowed to raise funds in these traditional ways. These inoffensive fund raising events should not be outlawed as a statement of righteousness or morality against the growing threat of legalized and criminal gambling in Minnesota. To do so would be outlaw harmless and moral conduct. 4708 Upper Terrace Edina MN 55435 Re- t' L S- -2 u - -iL Ms. Peggy Kelly Ms. Jane Paulus Mr. Jack Rice Mr. Glenn Smith Hon.

Citywide, many schools, churches, retirement homes and other organizations have traditionally held raffles, conducted bingo, and enjoyed carnival games at festive times.

I encour?jae you to reconsider the proposed change to recreational vehicle storage. It seems to me that the current ordinance is adequa -e to handle the usual /customary months of RVing -- namely, say the first of May through the middle of October. In my opinion. during these months there is plenty to do in Minnesota besides looking where your neighbor has his RV or boat parked. Additi- nally, during the above - mentioned months, there is usually quite a bit of foliage -- trees /shrubs /etc. so that motor vehicles aren't particularly visible. During the winter months, this is a different story and motor homes do become much more visible as without the foliage and against the snow, they tend to "stand out ". In view of this, perhaps a sort of "compromise" ordinance could be adopted in which things stand as they are for May through October with perhaps some changes regarding the winter months would be -ap propriate Minnesotans like the outdoors and they like their RVs /boats /snowmobiles /etc. Enjoying these - pings, having them readily available is, in my opinion, Part the Minnesota quality of life. Additionally, it seems to me that RVing / boat ing /eto. is a preferred activity for others, for ions before I could afford my own motor home, we had visitors from o--her states in their motor homes. Sometimes they would stay a couple of days; sometimes they would stay a couple of weeks. Some of the proposals relating to the new ordinance, if'I undersTand things correctly, would require me to not only get rid of my own motor home but send my friends away early. Now does this rpally make sense??? Thank ;­:�u for allowing me this input. Sincerely, V Paul J. Melichar, M.D. PJM /lb 3sa � -Z;r- Att; Members of the City Council Edina City Hall 4801 W. 50th. St. Edina, Mn. 55424 May 22, 1992 Subject: Newly Proposed Ordinance Section 1045- Parking and Storage of Vehicles and , Equipment. Dear Edina Mayor and Members of the City Council After looking over the proposed ordinance and checking existing ordinances on the subject from communities all over the country, I've come to the realization of a fact that should have been obvious to us all from the start. We have an ordinance in place that would satisfactorily control, limit and restrict parking if it were enforced. It seems to me that rather than getting a large percentage of your voters upset with an over restrictive ordinance and excessive permit fee such as proposed, it would make more sense to set up the means to control and enforce the existing ordinance and make it work the way it was originally intended. In order to prevent PREJUDICE, set up a committee ( or commission ) made up of an equal balance of just plain homeowners, boat owners, and RV owners etc. to determine solutions for infraction problems. This would then be a committee familiar with the types of vehicles involved and what options are available to help the owner in violation work out a reasonable solution that would also preserve the peace and tranquility of the neighborhood as well as save a lot of work and expense at city hall. I am sure that none of us want to live in a dictatorial atmosphere in this free country. It seems like every day our rites are gradually being eaten away. Let's not be guilty of speeding it up here in Edina. Like the man in Los Angles that was severely beaten by the police said, " We're all going to be here a while. Let's all try to get along."

We are retired women in our sixties who have RV'ed for 18 years - beginning with an 18 -foot unit and progressing over time to our present 34 -foot Class A "retirement home." Our choice was to live and participate in Edina year - round with travel options as opposed to removing ourselves to a vacation home for portions of the year. We have always taken great pride and care in the appearance and upkeep of our units and our home, certainly not wishing to be a neigh- borhood eyesore. Our neighbors have taken much interest in our units and our travels. We have searched regularly for storage /service facilities within reasonable distance to our residence and adequate for our needs. For a number of years we have been accom- modated by a company /storage and service which moved from Hopkins to Anoka, obviously an inconvenient and long drive. There hasn't been anything at the cost quoted in the Edina Sun Current article ... for our size unit. The 15 +foot driveway distance- from - the - street restriction would mean that we simply could not bring our unit home for trip preparation. If we are to make use of it (luring the recreational months we would have to drive back and forth to Anoka each trip. Our property is not amenable to erect- ing a storage building. _ We fit into the Edina mode with great community interest and pride, and pay our ever - rising property taxes without complaint, appreciative of the quality of life we share with other Edinans. Edina prides itself on a balance of affluence, heterogeneity, attractiveness and quality. We don't feel our RV detracts from that image. Certainly it doesn't as much as unsightly yards, three to five cars parked in a driveway or trash at streetside. Please don't take away our personal but responsible privilege because of the few who abuse a privilege or care little for the quality of life in Edina and its neighborhoods. Thank you for your consideration. ,Ann Charn and Marilyn J.

Protection of the Lower St. Croix River system was one of my major efforts. It is now a Scenic and Recrea- tional River and well protected from further exploitation. Then came time to retire and enjoy the Outdoor America I love so much. I bought a camper. My Wife and I have seen Alaska and a number of the Western States and their great beauty. Each fall I go deer hunting with it. That camper has made it possible to live next to Nature for extended periods and to thoroughly enjoy some of America's treasures. Now comes a proposed ordinance which will cause me to part company with that camper and a way of life which has given my retirement real meaning. It has hurt no one. I live on France Avenue. I have seen comings and goings at two brothels on my street. I have witnessed two police stake- outs recently, within 50 yards of my home and I have my yard invaded by uncontrolled dandelions from neighbors every spring. Edina residents are being regularly affronted with much more serious problems than campers parked off - street in driveways. I believe the proposed camper parking ordinance is so very low on our City's real priority list that it is difficult to imagine this as a serious ious issue. If we lose our sense of per- spective on an issue of this import, where will it all end? I was once happy and proud to be an Edinan. I hope our City Council will see this issue for what it really is - the be- ginning of an invasion of the basic rights of all of us, not just the camper owners. Who will be next? We who own campers could well be the first of our citizens to be caught in the net of "good intentions ". Please don't let it happen here! ncer ly, I. %9i Don Vog -t an 00 CLARENCE S. FLYNN, D.D.S.

We have lived at the same residence in Edina for 33 years and my *)ractice has ceen in Edina for 35 years. ire have owned a boat for 28,years and have always kept it in our driveway. During the winter months, (Oct. 15th. to April lst.), our boat is stored off our premises (at the State Fairgrounds). !e have always prided ourselves in maintaining our property in a first -rate manner. The inconvenience and expense of away from home summer storage would prohibit us from using our boat as often as we might if it were kept at home. One of the reasons why we keep our boat at home is because there is less of a chance of vandalism or burglary of the boat and contents. 'Ie personally feel that making this ordinance more restrictive is another encrouchment on our personal freedoms. Than:{ you for your considerations.

I am submitting this letter based on several personal perspectives, including !my position as Public Safety Director for the City of Chanhassen (where my duties include code enforcement); as an Attorney; as a former Edina Police Officer; and, as a lifelong, and current, resident of the City of Edina. Edina has a proud heritage, which includes careful city planning and a thoughtful development of necessary regulations. Regulations become necessary because of a very few residents that take advantage of situations to the detriment of many. While such an ordinance on it's face may seem unnecessarily restrictive to some, it is not. People in Edina take great pride in their homes and neighborhoods, and there is absolutely no question that the unnecessary storage of recreational vehicles deters from the aesthetics of our neighborhoods. One of the responsibilities of owning such vehicles is taking care of their storage, and not to any disadvantage of neighbors. While some storage may be said to be "temporary ", these situations, from my experience, tend to become permanent. The recreational vehicle and old car on West 70th Street east of Hwy 00 rove this point. This situation is clearly an eyesore, and should not be permitted. Similarly, the City needs to have the regulations to permit enforcement when people show so little consideration for their neighbors. FROM CITY OF CHANHASSEN Mayor and City Council May 29, 1992 Page 2 .05.29.1992 1 P. 3 I strongly encourage the neoessary, Council to carefully consider this ordinance, and to not be swayed by the few that do not wish to assume the responsibility that oes al recreational vehicles.

For many years, the Association has held a fund raiser in the fall to .support promotional activities at 50th & France. We have sponsored two raffles, one with ticket sales open to the public prior to the event, and another with tickets sold only at the event. The adoption of this proposal would severely restrict our ability to sell raffle tickets prior to the event, and force us to cancel the raffle at the party or hold the party outside of Edina. We have traditionally held the party at Interlachen Country Club and would like to continue to do so. We hope that you will continue to allow raffles within Edina. In addition, while we recognize the need for control of signage, as a vital part of the community, businesses need to be able to adequately communicate with their clients and customers. Adequate signage is a very important part of this effort. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to be part of this process. Sincerely, Karen Knudsen, Executive Director 50th & France Downtown Edina Business and Professional Association May 29, 1992 Mr. Frederic Richards Edina Mayor Edina City Hall 4801 W. 50th Street Edina, MN 55424 Dear Sir: Recently my wife and I became aware of a letter written to Jane Paulus by one of our neighbors about our R.V. and the proposed restrictions to its parking on private property in our community. The letter was written by Mr. Gerald Hobbs, who lives across the street from our home, and contained an unflattering picture that Mr. Hobbs took of our driveway. Interestingly enough, his letter supports many of the points raised in opposition to this ordinance during the May 4th public hearing. Mr. Hobbs sets high standards for the external appearance of his own property and I feel this is to be commended. He has two cars and two garage spaces so he is able to park his vehicles inside every night and this is good. Mr. Hobbs is retired and so he has additional time and energy to devote to his yard etc. etc. However, Mr. Hobbs high personal standards are impossible to achieve for those of us that do not enjoy his.advantages. There are many of us in that position in this community. It was amusing to me that one of the cars that Mr. Hobbs now finds offensive in our driveway, is the same car that he sold to our two older daughters. Why does he now feel compelled to notify city government, about its presence on our property? Mr. Hobbs alludes to the fact that he has not spoken to us about this matter. This is true. In the seven years we have lived here, Mr. Hobbs has spoken to us many times but has not once mentioned his concern. His letter talks about zero sum issue. I'm not sure what he means by using this term in the context of neighborhood relations, but my personal feeling is that it is poor neighborhood relations to write letters of complaint to city hall without first having the courtesy to share your thoughts with the party involved. Mr. Hobbs' letter raises the specter of reduced property values and as we discussed May 4th this fear has no basis in fact. Although he doesn't seem to intend this result, Mr. Hobbs' letter makes a strong case for neighborhood tolerance. He holds himself to a high set of standards, and this is appropriate for one with his advantages. There are many of us living in Edina that do not lead such a well ordered life. Those of us with growing families and those active retirees, who enjoy their R.V.s, depend on the forbearance and understanding of our neighbors. When that understanding is withheld,,issues such as this parking issue consume time and energy that would be better spent on other matters. The strength of Edina has always been in its appeal to families and to people who lead an active life style. When we give excessive consideration to conformity, we make this a less attractive place for these vibrant demographic groups. And I believe, that if we become one of the most restrictive suburbs in the metro area, we ultimately reduce the potential market for the homes in this community. This has to have a major negative effect on our property values. �spectfully yours, Gf4g7 W Carlin cc: G. Hobbs i. 01, Lv 4L 7 Xe Z, 'Ed S'-- -3 Re-' I 6 - t- --I,?- ,ODE C014MNTS - II.

At that meeting, I handed in a report showing how much money had been generated by games of chance at our prior year carnival and how that money (nearly $10,000) had been used to make significant contributions to our school. Other PTA representatives furnished similar information. Mayor Richards and the other councilmembers seemed to be unimpressed by the information presented and the concerns voiced by all of us. I felt as if they considered our work to be unimportant... our concerns to be unjustified... the needs of our schools to be of low priority. I was particularily offended by the implication that we have developed the habit of turning to gambling every time we need something. School carnivals are, after all, a tradition and an institution in this community and have been a major source of funds for many years. They are certainly not a symbol of irresponsibility or decadence, as the council seems to be suggesting. Furthermore, I think our students would be shocked to know that they have been "gambling "! If pull -tabs are the problem, why not just outlaw pull -tabs? Why is it necessary to penalize our churches and schools for the actions of a few people. If this whole idea really started because a softball team wanted to hire professional coaches, why not have the Park and Rec Board address that issue throuqh a policy decision? I believe that the proposed gambling ordinance will have a tremendous negative impact on our community and urge you not to pass it. Sincerely, r�y Polly M//elcher PTA President, Countryside Elementary School MAY 29, 1992 TO THE EDINA CITY MAYOR AND COUNCIL: RE: POSSIBLE CHANGE IN ORDINANCE REGARDING PARKING OF TRAILERS ETC. IN ONE'S OWN DRIVEWAY. We will be out -of -town on Monday evening so will write our thoughts to convey the disagreement we have with enacting any ordinance which would restrict parking RV's, trailers, etc. in our own driveway. Because you have the authority to enact ordinances does not mean you respond to any special interest group to write an ordinance that speaks to aesthetics or life style, or because someone doesn't like the "looks" of something. We have a snowmobile trailer. It is our recreation and because we snowmobile on state approved trails, our recreation choice does not impact anyone in Edina. If my neighbors do not like the sight of our trailer, that is their problem, not the general population of Edina. We do not like dogs, does that mean we should start a special interest action to restrict dogs in Edina. To spend time and effort on this subject is to give credence to the general opinion that Edina is an "elitist" community. There are real problems in this world, why spend time on this. Edina will be known as a real estate section of the Twin Cities that does not welcome RV Owners, Campers, Snowmobilers. Real Estate agents will have to disclose that your recreational vehicles are not welcome in this community. Edina a closed, snobby, city.

Edina MN. 55435 Sir: This is to let you know my feelings on the proposed ruling to eliminate the parking of camper top pickup trucks in Edina driveways. I have a very well taken care of camper top pickup which I park in my driveway. I keep it in my garage whenever possible, however there are times when I choose to keep it in my driveway. We are a orderly and clean family, my vehicle does not disturb any neighbor's beautiful view of my garage. I am deeply offended that anyone feels the need to dictate to my neighbor's or I what type of vehicle is allowable in my highly taxed driveway. It seems that soon I will be required to own a cadillac in order to live in this fine, upstanding community. on the behalf of my fellow pickup truck owners I hope to hear that you are reconsidering this unfair proposal.

This is what we have at Williams Park (Mills site) and is breaking down. It is about 10 years old. I then investigated a process called Chemcast, this was a process of etchin onto metal. After investigating this the material and etching broke down. This process cost approximately $6,000.00, but is only good for approximately 5 -10 years. A third process was investigated with all aluminum-'and an anodized bronzed color.' This process cost $11;000 and would be long lasting. The ultimate of plaques whl&h we have been doing in the parks and has been lo lasting have been the bronze brass plaques at $12,002.00.

On June 27, 18(A, Hugh Darcy deeded two acres of land to the school directors of School District No. 16 for "school purposes* at a price of $5.00. The property was located on the southeast corner of this intersection. A one -room, wood frame schoolhouse was built on this site in 1864. Facing on West 70th Street, the Cahill School was truly a one -room school house. Separate cloakrooms for boys and girls were added in 1904. Central heating was installed in 1917, replacing the cordwood stove that stood in the middle of the classroom. Electricity and indoor toilets were not added until 1935. Michael Gleeson was the first school clerk of the district. Grades 1 through 8 were taught in the school. The children sat at double desks, used hand slates for thcir lessons and read from McGuffcy's Readcrs. In the early ycars, school was taught three months in the winter and three months in the summer so that the boys could help their fathers with the spring planting and the fall harvest. Teachers boarded with families in the neighborhood. John Woods was the first teacher. The Cahill School was in continuous use until 1958. In 1969, it was acquired by the City of Edina and moved to its present site at Eden Avenue and Highway 100 where it has been restored. : :P1•toTa '�3 3" .1 1.311 Cahill School, c. 1930 C� 2' -0 VEV-IF=Y pANE -L 11211 4CA1_Es V'= to" r ll d.

In its early years, the church met in the old Cahill School. however, in 1938 they erected a small church building across the street on the north side of West 70th Street. Within a decade the Calvary Lutheran congregation had outgrown its tiny chapel and built an addition on the rear of the building. Finally in 1960, the congregation constructed a new sanctuary at Antrim Road and West 69th Street. The old church was converted into a private residence. _ PHOTO �4 . 12" X 16 It Calvary Lutheran Church, c. 1940 CAHILL STORE PF}OTt75 rot many years a general store occupied the north side of the intersection.

It was established in the 1850s by Irish immigrants fleeing a potato famine in their native Ireland. The first wave of settlers arrived in 1854, some directly from Ireland, some from Boston, and still others from Illinois. John Duggan, John McCabe, William Fogarty, John Kyle, William Marriott, John Burke and Michael Delany were among the earliest settlers. The Cahill Settlement was named for Father Thomas Cahill, an early missionary priest in Minnesota. The first house located in what is now Edina was a log cabin tt built by James Delaney in 1854 on his land just south of West ?j - -70th Street near Wooddale Avenue. The first church in Edina was St. Patrick's Catholic Church which was originally housed in a log structure built in 1857 on the northwest corner of West 70th Street and Wooddale Avenue. The Cahill community had as its focal point.this intersection at the junction of Cahill Road and West 70th Street.

REPORT/RECOMMENDATION To: MAYOR AND COUNCIL Agenda Item # coUNCIL VII.A From: CEIL SMITH Consent x❑ Information Only ❑ Date: JUNE 1, 1992 Mgr. Recommends ❑ To HRA Subject: To Council PROPERTY INSURANCE RENEWALS Action 0 Motion ❑ Resolution ❑ Ordinance ❑ Discussion Recommendation: Council approval to renew the City's property insurance with Hartford Insurance Company. Info/Background- Attached is a letter that I have received from Jack Carroll of the Frank B. Hall Insurance Brokerage. Mr. Carroll will be present at your meeting to answer questions you may have concerning insurance renewals. As you may recall, for the past five years, a representative from Frank B. Hall has obtained quotations for property insurance. The•Hartford Insurance Company has consistently been the lowest quotation. I May 5, 1992 Ms. Ceil Smith Assistant City Manager CITY OF EDINA 4801 West 50th Street Edina, Minnesota 55424 Re: Property Renewal - July 1, 1992 Dear Ceil: Frank B. Hall & Co. of Minnesota Northland Plaza 3800 West 80th Street, Suite 1100 Minneapolis, Minnesota 55431 I wanted to follow up my meeting with you on April 20, 1992, with the results of my discussion with the Hartford Insurance Company. The Hartford has agreed to an "as is" policy renewal for the July 1, 1992 to July 1, 1993 policy term. The only change in premium would be a result of a change in property values. The renewal process last year was fairly lengthy with many insurance agencies and companies quoting the City of Edina,. The general consensus of the market place is that they do not like to see submissions every year because they feel they are being "shopped" and they do not have a realistic opportunity to write the business. Your best position in the market place is going to be by looking every two or three years. I would make a recommendation that this year we do not take a look at alternative property quotations or casualty for that matter either. Also, it may be interesting to know that Hartford is willing to renew on an "as is" basis and by the time they have'the golf dome claim completely paid, they will probably have a 100% loss ratio. I will touch base with you in a couple of days to get your thoughts on these issues. Please call me if you have any additional questions or comments. Sincerely, 9w� John T.

Richards an*embers of Edina City Council: I need your help to get corrective action on a recurring drainage problem, due to the flow of rainwater directed into my property from the adjoining lot north of mine, at .5521 Kellogg. A large extension to the downspout at 5521 Kellogg. has been installed which conducts their rainwater directly into my yard. My grounds cannot possibly hold their drainage without damaging results. I have brought the matter.of this nuissance to the attention of the City of Edina officials, with &ut results, so I am asking you, Mr. Mayor and the other elected members of the City Council to help me. That a problem exists has been verified by: 1. A building inspecter who made an on -site inspection at 5521 Kellogg , at the same time he made an inspection of the water- proofing work done at my house. 2. Your City engineer 3-An expert waterproofing - and - cement contractor who did an on —site inspection of the conduit at 5521 Kellogg on May 21, 1992, at which time the resident was present on the site. She heard this expert declare that you cannot draimi water into my yard, but should direct their drain towards the street,'which he emphasized would be a simplle matter. The City has a responsibility to act on my request because.: 1. Prog-essionals have concurred that the drainage at 5521 Kellogg constitutes a problem. for me. 2. The City of Edina has a nuisance ordinance. 3• The City also has an ordinance requiring a 5 ft. setback 4. This is a service for which we pay taxes, and I have lived in Edina for forty years, in this same house, and have paid taxes for 40 years. I have done nothing in all that time to jeopardize the property of another, or cause them any loss, expense or trouble. I expect to live in this home for the next 20 years, so I am asking you, Mr. Mayor and members of the Council to act on my re- quest for corrective action on my reoccurring drainage problem. This is a fair and reasonable request and I must have a point in closure. When can the Council vote on this?

JOE C GIVENS 6566 France Avenue, #906 Edina, MN 55435 May 22,1992 Frederick S. Richards, Mayor City of Edina, MN Regarding: Valley View Road/ West 66th. Street Project Dear Mayor Richards: I am of the opinion the city of Edina is well run and I do appreciate the work you and the City Council do to keep our city one of the best places to live in the Country. You have a tough job. Thanks! I was present, but did not speak at, the City Council Meeting held on May 18. Thank you for postponing action on the above project until your June 15 meeting. I understand your request that any significant information be given to you, the Council Members and the Engineer before the June 15 meeting. I am responding to this request with the following observations which I intend to present at this meeting. Intersection of Valley View Road and 66th. Street; I was particularly intrigued by the statements made at the May 18th. meeting by the woman who had lived on Valley View Road north of this intersection for all of her life. You will remember she said that traffic signal lights had been installed at this location at_ least twice during her memory and that they were subsequently removed because they did an unsatisfactory job of controlling traffic. She also predicted that any future traffic lights installed here would also be doomed for failure. My condominium at the Point of France overlooks this intersection. I have been observing the traffic through this intersection from my 9th. floor windows for the last 13 years. At present, this intersection is much different from most because it operates much like the traffic circles .which are so prevalent in Europe. It handles a large volume of traffic coming from the Crosstown Highway and all other directions continuosly with rarely a delay of longer than 10 seconds for any car. There is not a 4 -way stop at one location. The traffic almost behaves with robot precision - -cars move up to the stop signs, pause briefly and move on just as if they were being controlled by someone punching buttons from above. There is little confusion, frustration or delay. For contrast consider, the traffic at 66th and France. Cars going either direction on 66th. Street usually pull to a stop, wait up to 2 minutes for the light to change and then make a mad dash to get across the intersection before the 20 second green signal goes off. There is a lot of racing to beat the yellow light. Too often waiting cars do not make it through the green light in time and must wait out another 2 minute cycle of the lights.Often traffic will be backed up for 100 yards or more on both sides of the traffic lights. At the same time this is going on there is practically no back -up of cars at the intersection of 66th and Valley View Road. In my opinion the lights at the intersection of 66th. and France do a worse job of handling the traffic than the circle system at 66th. Street and Valley View Road. -2- In general, my observation is that traffic lights tend to bunch traffic by delaying a group of cars with a red light and then releasing them to go to the next light like a stampeding herd of buffalo. We need more traffic "circles" which give a steady flow of traffic rather than more traffic lights which delay traffic. Conclusion: The intersection of 66th. Street and Valley View Road works - don't ruin it by trying to fix it. If it must be spruced up - keep the concept of a traffic "circle" in the design. I am opposed to this project as it now stands because I believe the present road arrangement does a better job of meeting the needs of the Edina Community than does the proposed design. Also I am fearful the proposed plan will box in the Point of France residents making ingress into and egress out of the building very difficult. Median crossover 66th. Street at Point of France The principal problem here is the traffic which backs up from France avenue beyond the crossover. It usually clears shortly after the traffic signal changes. Waiting a short time is much preferred over driving down to Valley View in order of make a U -turn and come back to France Avenue. Please keep the median cross -over. _ Walkway across Valley View Road to Cornelia Park Many people walk across Valley View Road daily to walk or jog around Lake Cornelia. It is very difficult to find a place to walk where you are not in danger of getting hit or where you don't have to walk in the mud. I suggest a sidewalk be built on the north side of 66th. Street would alleviate some of this problem. Access to and traffic on Crosstown Highway Crosstown highway is the really big problem. What is the use of improving the streets receiving and feeding traffic to Crosstown if Crosstown can't handle the traffic. I know you are all too familiar with these problems i.e. 15 minutes wait to get onto Crosstown and very slow traffic rates after you get on. it. These problems increase the amount of traffic on both 66th. Street and on Valley View Road and also cause much congestion at France Ave where it goes over Crosstown. If studies are being made I suggest making moving video pictures from the roof of the Point of France. The view from this roof of all the areas, i.e. Crosstown Highway, France Avenue, 66th. Street and Valley View Road is excellent. Videos made from here at rush times should be helpful in making decisions about, how to solve the problems. I know you are trying to resolve these problems in a way which will best serve all the people living in Edina including those most directly affected, that is, those people living at the Point of France. Thank you for your cooperation. Very my yours, oe ivens P.S. Please have copies of this letter distributed to the Council Members, the City Engineer and others interested. E. G. Johnson 6566 France Avenue, Apt 1009 Edina, MN, 55435 F. R. Richards, Mayor City of Edina Subject: Valley View Road/ West 66th St Project Dear Mr. Mayor At the city council meeting, May 18, 1992, you requested input from Edina citizens regarding the proposed intersection at 66th St. and Valley View Road. I am the lay engineer -- as you so aptly put it -- who demanded to be heard and left copies of a brief description of the project and comments: Additional copies are attached. My comments are made as a resident of the Point of France (P4F), not a board member. Since I called the plan, 'Ill- conceived, flawed, and dangerous,' I consider it necessary to qualify my statements. Ill Conceived: In my judgement the plan is ill- conceived because it purports to be an improvement whereas common sense, visual acuity, and experience as a driver, say otherwise. The current system of widely dispersed, 4 -way stops works perfectly in my estimation, an opinion shared by many of the audience who, like myself, live nearby and use the intersection daily. The current system works well because it uses the eyes, brain, and other senses of each driver approaching the intersection, all who stop to exercise judgement. Thus, traffic slows to a safe average speed and procedes in an orderly fashion. In my estimation, someone decided a traffic light signal works better and went ahead with the project without any real comparison of the two systems to see which is best. Further, in anticipation the new 2 traffic system, the signs and road - striping of the current intersection have not been upgraded or even well maintained. Perhaps improvements in this respect are all that are needed? Flawed: I said the plan was flawed because it uses standards set up for an average case to justify the need for traffic lights -- not the case in point. I refer to The Signal Justification Report pepared for the City of Edina by Howard Needles Tammen & Bergendoff dated February, 1991. This report uses for justification a MN -DOT Warrent based upon two intersecting streets with two lanes in all directions whereas the current intersection has two additional free lanes, an equivalent free lane, and considerable space between individual intersections -- nothing like the standard used in the report. The proposed system differs even more: It has three lanes in two directions; three free turn lanes, and; one non - intended bypass through the park between South Bound (SB) Valley View Road and WB 66th. Thus, the above justification is based solely on the closest standard available, not the actual case. Peak Traffic Volumes: Justification is also based upon a traffic count made only on a single day (Nov. 29, 1991): The peak of the Christmas retail sales period -- the worst possible case. Moreover, less- than -peak, 9 -11 and 1 -3 oclock periods of a less -than- peak retail sales period (Jan 28, 1991) were used instead of the same period, Nov. 29's hours -- a mixed bag to say the least! ... not a representative test sample nor good engineering practice. Further, I believe the count may be outdated: I understand the count must be made for the 30th worst hour and within one year of the project's start date Citv Growth: Future growth of retail, commercial, and residential units in this section of Edina and associated traffic does not warrent the restrictive traffic light control. Data supplied in this regard by a letter from Mr. Hoffman, April 28, 1992, is applicable: Adjusted Annual Daily Traffic figures vary from 10,775 vehicles in 1973 to 13,625 in 1975- -- an increase of 13X /yr. However, 3 1975 to 1987 figures drop form 13,625 to 12,800 -- a decrease of 0.52 /yr. Figures jump in 1989 to 14,500 -- an increase of 6.6X /yr. The-sudden jumps are probably due to major retail store Improvements and are not useful for average growth calculations. Considering the maturity of the area and impact of the future mega -mall, it appears more likely that traffic volumes remain about the same, not warrenting the change in traffic control at 66th St. and Valley View Road. Adverse Interactions: Interaction of the traffic lights between France and Valley View was not dicussed in the signal justification report_ nor apparently investigated by computer means. Synchonization of two major traffic signals only 600 ft. apart, each controlling parallel, high traffic roadways could be a major problem, particularly when connected by a high traffic minor roadway (66th) with a major residence (POF) exiting onto it. While both signals probably operate on an Arterial Coordinated Basis, cycle coordination of France Ave. traffic with respect to Valley View will be next to impossible. The resulting interaction on 66th may cause vehicular back -up, blockage of POF ramp, and otherwise impede traffic. This situation will be further complicated by the addition of a traffic light signal at Valley View and 65th St. which the City Engineer says will occur in the near future. All in all, we have a system that works: Why chance a possibility of complex signal interaction which will vary with traffic volume and direction of peak travel? Safety: The new plan has dangerous features, namely: 1) A non - intended bypass through the park, 2) Crossing three lanes of' traffic in 200 feet if POF median - crossing is deleted (reinstated), 3) associated U -turns at both the Valley View and France Ave.; and 4) an increase in average speed due to the traffic light. 1) Bypass through Park: A 22 ft. wide entrance from Valley View and a 36 ft wide entrance /exit from 66th, intersect before entering a common parking area thus allowing traffic to by -pass the new traffic signal if drivers desire. These lanes are radiused to 4 deter but not preclude the possibility. Traffic from EB Hy 62 can exit south on Valley View and bypass the light to WB 66th. Or, EB 66th traffic can enter the park and try to exit NB or SB on Valley View to avoid the light. Either is extremely dangerous and. may result in vehicles backing -up and /or collisions. In any event, the possibilities are extremely dangerous to pedestrians, especially children. 2) Median Crossing: If deleted, POF residents desiring to go in any direction but WB or NB; or SB France travelers turning WB on 66th and thence SB on Valley View are required to cross three lanes of traffic in less than 200ft. inorder to get into the SB turn lane on 66th -- a dangerous situation. 3) U- turns: As an alternative to the POF median - crossing, U -turns on 66th at both Valley View and France were offered. However U -turns are dangerous, especially in this case. For example: The turning circle of a Cadillac varys from 42.5 to 44.0 ft. wall to wall. A circle of this diameter puts a Cadillac -- and most full -size cars -- going WB on 66th, U- turning EB on 66th, into the free lane of traffic turning EB off Valley View onto 66th St. While beating a dead horse, the point is important since we are not assurred of the median crossing until the project is complete and then perhaps not for long. POF residents requesting retention of the median - crossing, are not asking for more than exists in twos on all four sides of Southdale. It is my understanding that these crosssings will eventually all be controlled by traffic lights: This is also an alternative for the POF median - crossing. Or, the POF median crossing can be made with turn lanes to improve safety. Whatever, this alternative- warrents further study. 4) Traffic Speed Increase: Traffic Signals increase average speeds whether violated or not. Thus, a greater number of serious, if not fatal accidents, can be .expected by changing from a 4 -way stop to traffic light signals. The author has wittnessed no accidents at 66th and Valley View, but several on 66th and France where 5 traffic lights exist. Recently, one car turned over, coming to rest completely upside down, reflecting the effect of greater speeds. Our concerns were not solely POF as accused: Most of the above hazards apply to all drivers and pedestrians. Recommendations: 1) Leave System as is: In consideration of the above, the author recommends leaving the intersection as is, except: 1) repaving, 2) improving the system of traffic signs, 3) leaving the median crossing, 4) storm sewer improvements, 5) add POF turn -in lane to promote safety, and 5) satisfy complaints of Southdale Road residents by bellying Valley View Road eastward (after leaving the present intersection) to provide the separation and berm they desire. Cost Reduction: The above approach should reduce costs by perhaps 302, estimating savings to the taxpayer of $ 592,000. Park Entrance: I . recommend reconsideration of the park entrances to preclude their use as a bypass, perhaps by separating the parking areas they serve. I hope this letter clarifies my position as one of the more persistent objectors. I understand that council meetings must be conducted with decorum. However, Rules of Order should not substitute for democracy nor get in the way of homeowner's rights. ly, Elmer G Oohnson Betty Fletcher 6566 France Ave. S. Edina, MN 55435 May 19, 1992 Dear Mayor Richards, I would Iike,to thank you and commend you for your patience and professionalism at last night's stormy session of the Edina City Council Meeting. I am saddened that some of my neighbors were out of line, but I am not able to apologize or speak for them. Each of them is an individual home owner and so am I. We would prefer not being lumped together as "think- alike" members of one residence in Edina. I have been a resident of this neighborhood f or over 35 years. When my husband and I moved into our house on Cornelia Drive, 66th Street was a dirt road with the nearest grocery store on Penn avenue. We watched from our kitchen window as the Southdale water tower was being built. I agree with the Southdale Road residents that there is a need for a buffer. I question that it needs to be bordered by a six lane highway with stop lights. Fifteen years ago we moved from our five bedroom house on Cornelia Drive to a two bedroom unit here at Point of France. We take up a lot less space and require fewer services. There are 140 home owners in this building with 140 different ideas and tax statements. The great majority of these Edina residents feel that the proposed plan for six lane highways with extra stop lights is detrimental to any residential neighborhood, and we certainly agree that retaining the break in the median is a necessity for us. The possible future plan for redoing the Crosstown exit on to 65th Street needs to be thought through very carefully before proceeding with the present construction plans on Valley View Road. I hope that these insights may perhaps influence that council members to go slowly and rethink how to proceed with this project. Again, many thanks for your sensitivity in this matter. Sincerely, #Y� MEMORANDUM # * ** Date : May 29, 199' To : Fred Richards, Glenn Smith, Jack Rice. Peggy k ::ell_y and Jane Paulus From : Gary Thacher, Jim Jenewein and Nora Davis Southdale Residents Association 6905 Southdale Road Edina, MN 55435 61 -96 -865 Re : Valley View Improvements The Southdale Residents Association has requested us to write in support of the Valley View Road improvements, approved(4 -1 vote) at the council meeting on April 20th. We are aware, at the council meeting of May 18th, the residents of "Point of France" were able to influence the council in delaying the approved project. Our council has advised us the total project was not open for debate or delay. The agenda of May 18th indicated the issue of egress and ingress from Point�of France was open for discussion. Also, at the council meeting of April 20th Mayor Richards stated the egress /ingress issue for 66th street would be discussed at the council meeting of May 18th. In visiting with Fran Hoffman, should the council delay the approved phase I road improvements until the June 15th meeting, there is insufficient construction time to complete the project in 1992. Therefore, the total project will be delayed until 1993, which ultimately will cost the taxpayer's additional monies and the state appropriated funds to be placed on hold in a continuing perilous financial environment. We urge you to advise engineering to continue the process of securing the contracts for the total project, so phase I can be completed on budget in '92 as approved. We appreciate your time spent working on issues such as these. We hope the above points encourage you to action. I!'- League of Minnesota Cities o, May 26, 1992 Jason Rice 6566 France Avenue Edina, MN 55435 Dear Mr. Rice: 183 University Ave. East St. Paul, MN 55101 -2526 (612) 227.5600 (FAX: 221.0986) I am writing in response to your recent questions of our office. You had expressed some dissatisfaction over a local improvement (specifically a road project) that the city of Edina has planned to make. You had said that you and some other citizens in your neighborhood are in the process of trying to get the council to reconsider this project. First you had asked which elected officials represent the voters of Edina at the state level. As I said during our initial conversation, our records indicate that Edina is in Congressional District 3 and Legislative Districts 42A and 42B. Bob Lessard (296 -4136) represents Congressional District 3, Sidney J. Pauly (296 -7449) represents Legislative District 42A, and Ronnie P. Erhardt (296 -4363) represents Legislative District 42B. Next, you had asked about the notice requirements for making a local improvement. You had said that you have only recently moved to Minnesota from Florida, but that you were fairly certain that there was a. requirement in most states that all property owners within a certain distance of an improvement must receive notice of it. I cannot speak for the requirements in Florida or other states, but Minnesota statutes do not require notice of an improvement based upon the distance that one lives from it. There is such a distance provision relating to zoning laws, perhaps this is what you were thinking of. Since this is not a zoning issue, however, this type of notice requirement would not be applicable. The notice requirements for a local improvement require that property owners whose land will be assessed for the cost of the improvement must be notified. If_the city is making an improvement that it will not be using .special assessments to pay for, there is no requirement to give notice to the property owners. You had then asked about the League's policy for responding to the questions of citizens. We discussed this matter at some length and it is also my understanding that you had a similar discussion with Jeanette Bach of our office the day before you called me. The League is not a regulatory agency - -we have no enforcement powers over cities. We offer information to assist city officials in performing the I things that they, as elected officers, have the authority to do. We do respond to some citizen questions, but our primary responsibilities are to the local government officials. You had then asked for some information about our organization. I have included a copy of our brochure "A Partnership of Citiesn pursuant to this request. I hope that this letter has answered your questions. Since your inquiry is of a legal nature, I am forwarding a copy of this letter and its enclosure to the city clerk of Edina, as is our policy. Sincerely, Theresia Perry Research Assistant encl: cc: Marcella Daehn 4801 West 50th Street Edina, MN 55424 -1394
