3.1 2026 LEGISLATIVE DELEGATION MEETING
Manager Neal shared the City’s draft 2026 Legislative Platforms were shared with the legislative
delegation in advance, with formal Council approval expected later this evening. Neal outlined
the platforms including continued pursuit of the local option sales tax authority, flexibility to use
remaining authorized proceeds for additional projects, coordination with MnDOT on acquiring
undeveloped land in front of City Hall for Fire Station #3 and potential credit for the City’s
bridge investment, authorization for a Social District, and exploring the feasibility of lifting state
firearm preemption. Neal asked the delegation to provide feedback on the feasibility of these
priorities and strategies for moving them forward.
The legislative delegation asked clarifying questions about the origin of the $71 million sales tax
amount. Delegation members noted similar requests from peer cities, acknowledged challenges
in passing tax bills, and suggested a potential compromise approach focused on duration or
scope. On Fire Station #3, delegation members were hopeful legislation may not be required
and cited similar past situations, while staff noted MnDOT has indicated Edina would have first
right at market value after its project package is complete. Regarding firearm preemption,
delegation members described significant political and legal hurdles, emphasized concerns about
a patchwork of local regulations, and recognized the symbolic value of local advocacy even if
immediate change is unlikely. On housing and zoning, delegation members discussed a
performance-based approach and a menu of options that preserve local control, including
ADUs, condo law updates, financing tools, land trusts, building code considerations, and the
practical challenges of building in commercial areas, while acknowledging fatigue around the
issue and the difficulty of advancing major reforms in a closely divided Legislature. Additional
discussion touched on Social District authorization as broadly supported across political
perspectives, though not guaranteed.

community comment cannot be made regarding matters on the meeting agenda, to
hear input on immigration enforcement issues. Ayes: Agnew, Jackson, Pierce, Risser,
Hovland. Motion carried.
Jessi Kingston stated that people in the community are hurting and afraid, and that residents need
their leaders to stand beside them rather than watch from a distance. Mrs. Kingston asked that the
City act on these matters now.
Mayor Hovland noted that he met with 8 Minnesota mayors to discuss this matter last week and
met again with various City Managers and Police Chiefs a few days later. Mayor Hovland noted that
he has sent two letters to the New York Times editorial board so that people can understand what
has been going on here in Minnesota.
Police Chief Milburn stated that they worked in the Police Department to put together a policy to
clear up roles for officers when interacting with ICE Officers. Mr. Milburn noted that their main
focus is to protect people and property, and they do not interfere or work alongside ICE officers.
Mr. Milburn noted that they will always be responsive to 911 calls.
Mr. Milburn stated that local law enforcement has been stretched thin. Mr. Milburn discussed some
incidents regarding what law enforcement has been dealing with and the reason why the press
conference was held.
City Manager Neal stated that Mrs. Kingston sent the City a nice framework, and they are in the
process of putting together an internal staff task force to look at all of these suggestions.

Mr. Neal noted that it is time to put together a more unified, suburban approach to push back on
the unconstitutional actions being done towards residents.
The Council stated that Edina is a Human Rights City and noted that if anyone sees anything unsafe
happening, call 911. The Council noted that all businesses should have a plan, write it out, and have
apoint person to administer the plan.
The Council highlighted specific parts of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Sandy Carlson urged the City Council for more transparency and broader community input on the
proposed France Avenue tunnel project. Mrs. Carlson asked the Council to hold a formal public
hearing open to all Edina residents before any further funds are allocated.
Helen Ferraro stated that the ICE raids that have been going on have caused her to be terrified to
leave her house, and asked what residents are supposed to do if ICE agents are acting
unconstitutionally.
Janey Westin noted that this is a serious matter and is so terrifying for so many people. Mrs. Westin
stated that she would like the City to come out with a statement regarding where they stand on
this matter. Mrs. Westin asked if Edina could do anything to help people who are released by ICE
to help them stay warm/get home safely.
Michael Waring stated that it is important for the City to have a means of communicating clearly
to the boards of these associations about the importance of becoming knowledgeable on this
matter.
Chelsey Dively stated that it appears that ICE has access to the flock cameras, and it is putting
people at risk. Mrs. Dively asked if they could temporarily halt those from being used or make them
more secure.
Mr. Milburn noted that they have been in contact with flock cameras for over a year, and they are
very confident that they are not being shared with any ICE agents.
Art Boylan noted that there are serious issues in the City and appreciates the work all of the City
staff does. Mr. Boylan noted that there is a 3-premises limit in the current ordinance and hopes that
it can be expanded to 6.
Harry McLenighan recommended that the Council should remind residents that they promise to
support justice for all at every meeting and noted that they should pay special attention to their
language choices to avoid mistrust and promote civility.
Mattias Oddsson thanked the Council for allowing residents to speak their minds on the ICE
enforcement issues. Mr. Oddsson noted that the unlawful acts that have occurred warrant a
response from community leaders and elected officials, and noted that it has also shown great acts
of courage from community members. Mr. Oddsson asked that they consider an eviction
moratorium or emergency rental assistance since many businesses are closed or operating under
limited hours.
Joanne Alkire noted that there is an incredible effort going on in the City, and the City staff is not
a part of it. Mrs. Alkire noted that they are afraid that they will be targeted for doing legal activity
to support the community. Mrs. Alkire discussed incidents that she has heard about in her Signal
chats.

9.3. ORDINANCE 2025-17, AMENDING CHAPTER 22 - MISCELLANEOUS
OFFENSES TO ADD ARTICLE XL- FIREARMS – FIRST READING GRANTED
City Manager Neal noted that this item pertains to a proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance that would amend Chapter 22 of the City Code to create a new article regulating certain
firearms and firearm components within the City. Mr. Neal noted that the City Council held a
special town hall meeting on January 6, 2026, to get feedback on the proposed ordinance.
City Attorney Kendall stated that the ordinance is like the ordinance passed by the city of St. Paul,
with the key differences being the effective date and there being no prohibition on the possession
of a firearm in places owned by the City, designed to help the Edina ordinance to survive litigation.
Page 11 of 494
Page 5
The Council asked questions regarding the validity of the ordinance with the State preemption,
actual legality, and how this could be used if passed. Mr. Kendall stated that, in his opinion, the
ordinance is not automatically void; it is possible for an ordinance to have a contingent effective
date. Mr. Kendall discussed the differences between conflict and field preemption and noted that
there is an argument that this is conflict preemption, meaning it is possible to pass an ordinance
that has a contingent effective date. Mr. Kendall stated that if this ordinance were effective now, it
would be preempted by State law, which is addressed by saying it is not effective now.
The Council gave feedback on why now is the time for laws like this to be put into action and
expressed full support for this ordinance; read comments from Senator Ron Latz regarding this
matter; on there being a place for preemption here to have consistency across the State; and
historical catalysts for changing societal views and the importance of making a legal statement.
Member Agnew made a motion to grant First Reading to Ordinance No. 2025-17,
amending Chapter 22 - Miscellaneous Offenses to add Article XI. - Firearms. Member
Jackson seconded the motion. Ayes: Agnew, Jackson, Pierce, Hovland. Abstain: Risser. Motion
carried.
9.4. ORDINANCE 2026-02, AMENDING SECTION 4-9-9; REPEALING AND REPLACING
CHAPTER 6 ARTICLE III LAWFUL GAMBLING OF THE EDINA CITY CODE – CONTINUED
TO FEBRUARY 3, 2026
City Clerk Allison gave a presentation on the lawful gambling ordinance, including information
regarding its background and need for change, what is being proposed, the premises permit
framework, financial and regulatory requirements, proposed changes to the exempt gambling
permits, and staff recommendation. Mr. Neal stated the goal is to create an opening for this kind of
activity to occur without putting the City in the position of deciding who gets a permit.
The Council asked questions regarding the process for adding more premises in the future. Allison
stated Council could approve more immediately or amend the ordinance anytime in the future.
Council asked if the income the City will get will be on par with the cost that it will take to
administer gambling and Allison noted that she believe it will be on par but is not certain because
this is new.
The Council expressed concerns regarding not being able to support the ordinance, because it
introduces another form of gambling and places the burden on a narrower, more vulnerable group
and that this is part of an overall system that preys on addiction and takes money from people who
may not have money to give.
The Council requested hearing more about the need for this type of gambling in Edina and directed
staff to come back with the ordinance under first reading and to get feedback from the community
on its engagement platform, Better Together.
Member Pierce made a motion, seconded by Member Jackson, to bring back
Ordinance 2026-02 for first reading on February 3, 2026, and post the ordinance on
BTE for community feedback. Ayes: Jackson, Pierce, Risser, Hovland. Nay: Agnew. Motion
carried.
9.5. SKETCH PLAN REVIEW: 6016 VERNON AVENUE (EV CHARGING STATION)
– PRESENTED
Community Development Director Teague stated that this item pertains to 6016 Vernon Avenue
and the proposal for a use that is allowed under their current zoning ordinance of PCD-4.
Page 12 of 494
Page 6
Declan Wilkerson, iONNA Deployment Design Specialist, presented who iONNA is, their mission,
the spread of the company so far, experience in Edina, vision aligning with Edina, rechargery, concept
sketches for the interior and exterior, and exterior elevation.
The Council asked questions regarding lighting, convenience store accessibility, higher-end vending
ideas, and the process for lounge use. Andres Villacres, iONNA Site Development, stated that they
are proposing auto-dimming motion sensors and shielded LED lights pointed down. He noted that
they are flexible and want to be a good community partner. Mr. Villacres noted that they will take
the idea of higher-end vending options back and explore what they are able to do. Mr. Wilkerson
noted that this site would work well for coworking, being near a residential area.
The Council gave feedback regarding the surrounding zoning to this site, increasing community
draw, and potentially adding bike racks, asked questions regarding cleaning services, parking for gas
vehicles, and entrances to the site. The Council expressed concerns regarding having 24/7 charging,
lighting in a neighborhood at all hours of the night, and this site being used by the community.
9.6. ADOPT 2026 LEGISLATIVE PLATFORMS – APPROVED

Dear Mr. Kaderlik:
Advanced Engineering and Environmental Services, LLC (AE2S) proposes to render professional
engineering services to the City of Edina (City) for the Optimized Corrosion Control Treatment Study.
The following letter provides a general overview of our understanding and the proposed scope of
services, anticipated timeline, and estimate of associated professional fees.
Project Understanding
This project generally consists of the analysis of the City’s existing corrosion control treatment
system to provide an optimized chemical feed system for their blended orthophosphate and
polyphosphate feed system. This study will aim to answer the following questions:
• Is the City feeding the correct corrosion control chemical?
• If not, what is the optimal corrosion control chemical?
• What is the impact of raw water quality on required corrosion control dosing?
• What should the City be targeting for chemical dosing under their common pumping
conditions?
Scope of Services
AE2S proposes to work with the City to perform the following scope of services for the study
phase:
Existing Raw Water Sources and Points of Entry

Item Activity: Action Prepared By: Perry Vetter, Parks & Recreation Director
Item Title: Waive Permit Fees for Braemar Ice Arena Phase 1 - South and East Rink Improvements
Action Requested:
Waive Permit fees for Braemar Ice Arena Phase 1 South and East Rink Improvements in the amount of
$42,500.70
Information/Background:
The City has the authority to waive building fee permits for municipal building projects. By doing so,
the City is able to set aside the amount that would have been spent on the fees to instead add value
to the overall project, cover potential future change orders, or make the project more affordable by
reducing the total project cost. The total estimated building permit fees for this portion of the project is
$42,500.70.
Building Permit Fee $25,758.00
Plan Review Fee $16,742.70
Total $42,500.70
It is important for the City Council to determine if these project’s building permit fees will be waived so
that staff is able to prepare project budgets with the most accurate information available.

Item Number: 6.9 Department: Finance
Item Activity: Action Prepared By: Pa Thao, Finance Director
Item Title: Ordinance 2026-01: Setting Morningside Water Rates
Action Requested:
Grant second reading to adopt ordinance 2026-01: Amending Code Section 2-724 Schedule A, setting
Morningside water rates for 2025 and approve summary publication.
Information/Background:
The City of Minneapolis provides the water used by much of the Morningside area of Edina. Edina pays
Minneapolis for the water that comes into our City from Minneapolis based on a contracted rate. The
contracted rate that Edina pays is proportional to the rates the Minneapolis City Council sets for their
own residents. The Minneapolis rate for 2026 is $4.13 per 100 cubic feet of water, a 32.80% increase over
the 2025 rate.
The City of Edina also provides services to this area in the form of meter reading, billing, water
distribution infrastructure, and other services except for water itself. To help offset the cost of these
Edina-provided services, staff recommends increasing the Edina charge by 5.25% to 0.97/1,000 gallons
in 2026. This rate adjustment is consistent with the rates recommended by the City's financial advisor,
Ehlers & Associates, in the 2025 utility rate study.
The recommended Morningside water rate for 2026 is $6.50 per 1,000 gallons of water. Below is the
rate history and the recommended rate for 2026.
(per 1,000 gal) 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026
Minneapolis charge $3.60 $3.74 $3.94 $4.16 $5.52
Edina charge $0.80 $0.84 $0.88 $0.93 $0.97
Total Rate $4.40 $4.58 $4.82 $5.09 $6.50
For areas of Edina that do not receive Minneapolis water, the 2026 adopted rates are $2.81, $4.27, or
$7.06 per 1,000 gallons, depending on type and quantity of usage. Another difference between
Minneapolis and Edina water is Minneapolis delivers softened water, while Edina residents use home
water softener systems.

Values Impact:
Equity
By aligning costs with actual service usage, individuals are not
disadvantaged based on where they live. It creates a transparent and
uniform system that treats all community members equally, regardless
of municipal borders, while maintaining affordability and access to
essential water services.
Stewardship
By ensuring responsible management of shared water resources and
financial fairness. Including the bordering city’s water rate reflects
prudent use of public funds and promotes sustainability. This approach
respects the long-term viability of the system while maintaining
equitable service for residents who rely on cross-boundary water
access.

Item Title: Conditional Use Permit with Variances: 4201 W. 50th St.
Action Requested:
Conduct an in-person public hearing and approve resolution 2026-05.
Information/Background:
The subject property, 4201 W. 50th Street, is approximately 1.15 acres and is located at the southwest
corner of the intersection of W 50th Street and Indianola Avenue. Mis Amigos Spanish Immersion
preschool is requesting a conditional use permit to continue operating the existing church property at
4201 W 50th Street as a place of worship and a licensed early childhood education center. The
proposed church use has been present on the site since the church was originally developed in 1955
(date of building construction per Hennepin County). A licensed childcare center started alongside the
church during the 1990s. The church closed in Winter of 2023 and there has not been a church or
school in operation since. The city has no record of a conditional use permit. Due to the use stopping in
2023, a conditional use permit is required for a church and school use to continue on site. In addition to
the conditional use permit, variances are required for the number of parking spaces on site and for the
size lot for a church use and daycare use on site. No exterior changes are proposed with the request.
The applicant will be utilizing the existing building and parking areas.

Subject: Conditional Use Permit with parking stall variances and lot size variances for Mis Amigos at 4201 W. 50th
Street
Staff Recommendation: Motion to approve a conditional use permit and variance for parking and lot size for a
religious institution and school at 4201 W 50th Street subject to the findings and conditions listed in the staff
report.
Information/Background:
The subject property, 4201 W. 50th Street, is approximately 1.15 acres and is located at the southwest corner of the
intersection of W 50th Street and Indianola Avenue.
Mis Amigos Spanish Immersion preschool is requesting a conditional use permit to continue operating the existing
church property at 4201 W 50th Street as a place of worship and a licensed early childhood education center. The
proposed church use has been present on the site since the church was originally developed in 1955 (date of building
construction per Hennepin County). A licensed childcare center started alongside the church during the 1990s. The
church closed in Winter of 2023 and there has not been a church or school in operation since. The city has no record
of a conditional use permit. Due to the use stopping in 2023, a conditional use permit is required for a church and
school use to continue on site.
In addition to the conditional use permit, variances are required for the number of parking spaces on site and for the
size lot for a church use and daycare use on site. No exterior changes are proposed with the request. The applicant will
be utilizing the existing building and parking areas.

Staff Report
The subject property is a 49,993 square foot, 1.15-acre lot located at the southwest corner of W. 50th Street and
Indianola Avenue. The property consists of an existing church building, existing play area and existing parking lot. There
are no proposed exterior changes to the building or parking area.

*Requires a variance (existing conditions)
Traffic and Parking:
There is no change to the site access or circulation. The site has access off Indianola Avenue and Jay Place. Stantec
conducted a traffic study for the site and proposed uses. The traffic study concludes that the trips added to the roadway
system by the proposed project are expected to have minimal impact on traffic operations on the surrounding street
system. No improvements are needed at the subject intersections to accommodate the proposed project.
Based on the City Code requirements 83 parking spaces are required for the church/religious institution use and 33
spaces are required for the daycare/preschool use. The site continues to have 71 parking spaces available. No additional
parking spaces are proposed with the application. Based on the code requirements a parking variance of 12 parking
spaces is required for the church/religious institution use. Stantec conducted a parking study for the site and proposed
uses. The parking study concludes that the parking provided is adequate for the daycare/preschool use. The study found
that with a maximum occupancy event of 276 people (the seating capacity of the largest assembly space), the peak
parking demand is 92 spaces. The traffic study recommends that the project owner should develop a parking plan that
clearly identifies options for parking demand greater than the spaces provided on-site. This could include items such as
providing off-site parking locations and/or valet parking during a maximum occupancy event. This site has previously
been used as a church/religious institution and no parking complaints for the site have been received.

Staff Report
Conditional Use Permit Review:
A conditional use is a use allowed by the zoning ordinance, subject to conditions. Unlike permitted uses, conditional
uses require review by the Planning Commission and approval from the City Council. Typically, conditional uses are
those that may only be allowed under certain criteria or may have impacts that may need to be accounted for.
Per Section 36-306, the City may impose conditions and restrictions upon the establishment, location, construction,
maintenance, operation or duration of the use, as deemed necessary for the protection of the public interest and
adjacent properties, to ensure compliance with the requirements of this chapter (zoning) and other applicable provisions
of this Code, and to ensure consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. The Council may require such evidence and
guarantees as it may deem necessary to secure compliance with any conditions imposed. No use shall be established or
maintained, and no building or other permit for establishing or maintaining such use shall be granted, until the applicant
has met and fulfilled all conditions imposed by the council to the satisfaction of the planner.
Section 36-305 of the Edina Zoning Ordinance states that the Council shall not grant a conditional use
permit, unless it finds that the establishment, maintenance and operation of the use:
1. Does not have an undue adverse impact on government facilities, utilities, services or existing or
proposed improvements;
The proposed use is a use that has been in existence since the property was developed in the 50’s. The scale of the
church and school uses are not changing and no exterior changes are proposed with the current application. The
religious institution and daycare/preschool use will not have any noticeable impact on government facilities, utilities,
services or existing or proposed improvements.
2. Will generate traffic within the capacity of the streets serving the property;
A parking study was completed for the City by Stantec, and it was found that the proposed project is expected to have
minimal impact on traffic operations on the surrounding street system.
3. Does not have an undue adverse impact on the public health, safety or welfare;
Staff does not foresee any adverse impacts on the public health, safety or welfare resulting from the proposed use.
4. Will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of other property in the
vicinity;
The use should have no impact on the normal and orderly development and improvement of other property in the
vicinity.
5. Conforms to the applicable restrictions and special conditions of the district in which it is located,
as imposed by this chapter; and
No changes are proposed to the exterior of the building or parking lot layout. The applicant is proposing additional
landscaping around the existing playground area. There are variances associated with the applicant’s proposal; for
Page 169 of 494
Staff Report
parking and for lot size. With the exception of those variances, staff believes the use complies with all other aspects of
the zoning ordinance.
6. Is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed application is consistent with the city’s comprehensive plan.
Variance Review:
Are the proposed variances justified?
Minnesota Statues and Section 36-98 of the Edina Zoning Ordinance require that the following
conditions must be satisfied affirmatively. The proposed variance will:
1. Relieve practical difficulties that prevent a reasonable use from complying with ordinance
requirements.
Reasonable use does not mean that the applicant must show the land cannot be put to any reasonable use without the
variance. Rather, the applicant must show that there are practical difficulties in complying with the code and that the
proposed use is reasonable. “Practical difficulties” may include functional and aesthetic concerns.
The application allows the property owner to continue to the use of the property as it has been used since it was
originally developed in the 1950’s. The size of the lot, the proposed uses, and the number of parking spaces are not
changing.
2. Correct extraordinary circumstances applicable to this property but not applicable to other
property in the vicinity or zoning district.
The proposed application allows the use to continue on the subject property. This is not a new use and no exterior
changes are proposed to the building, lot size or parking areas. This is not applicable to other property in the vicinity.
3. There are circumstances that are unique to the property, not common to every similarly zoned
property, and that are not self-created?
The need for a variance is unique to the property and is not self-created by the applicant. This property and use has
been in existence since it was originally developed in the 1950’s.
4. Will the variance alter the essential character of the neighborhood?
No, the proposed variances would not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. The property would continue
to be used as a church/religious institution and preschool/daycare as it has since it was developed in the 1950’s. There is
no exterior changes to the building or parking lot associated with the proposal.

Narrative Statement for Conditional Use Permit
Property: 4201 W 50th St., Edina, MN 55424
Reason for Conditional Use Permit
Mis Amigos Spanish Immersion Preschool is seeking a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to continue
operating the existing church property at 4201 W 50th St. as a place of worship and to add a
licensed early childhood education center. This proposal maintains the long-standing character
and use of the site, which has been a fixture of West 50th Street since 1946.
Although zoning laws have evolved over time, our intent is simple: to continue using the property
for its original purpose as a space that serves and strengthens the community—through both
worship and the education and care of young children.
Background and History of the Property
The property was originally constructed and operated as a church beginning in 1946. In the 1950s,
the church expanded the building and vacated nearby alleys to accommodate its addition.
During the 1990s, the site also hosted a licensed childcare center alongside church operations.
The church closed in December 2023, and the property was listed for sale in hopes of finding
another faith-based user. After an initial sale fell through, the property was relisted in 2025. Mis
Amigos was selected in a competitive bid process because our proposal preserves the building,
continues its use for worship, and adds a licensed childcare program that benefits local families.
Other bidders included a childcare operator that planned to demolish the building to its
foundation and a multi-family housing developer. We believe our approach—preserving the
existing structure and its long-standing use—is the most responsible and community-friendly
path forward.
We are requesting that the City reinstate the previous conditional use permit, which recently
lapsed due to the closure of Mercy Commons Church.
Zoning Context (R-1 District)
The property is zoned R-1, which allows both religious institutions and childcare centers with a
Conditional Use Permit.
● Lot area: The site totals 1.12 acres. While this is less than the 2-acre minimum for childcare
centers and 3-acre minimum for religious institutions, there is no available adjacent land
to expand the parcel.
● Setbacks: The building meets the 30’ front setback requirement and maintains existing
nonconforming setbacks on other sides (26.8’, 7.6’, and 24.8’). We are not altering the
footprint or shape of the building, nor decreasing any setbacks. Without demolishing the
existing structure, these conditions cannot be modified, making reinstatement of the
CUP the reasonable and practical solution.
Parking and Lot Coverage
The property’s impervious surface coverage is 45%, below the 50% limit for the zoning district.
● Religious use: The sanctuary seats 276 people, requiring 92 spaces by code; the existing
53-space lot has historically accommodated church operations without issue.
● Childcare use: State requirements call for 1 space per employee and 1 per 20 children. We
anticipate approximately 25 employees and 7 additional spaces for parents—well within
the lot’s capacity.
Page 179 of 494
● The current parking lot has supported both church and childcare uses in the past,
demonstrating it can adequately do so again.
At some point in the property’s history, the church began using a portion of the adjacent
alleyway as part of its parking layout. The alley provides access only to the garage of one
neighboring home and to the church itself. The parking lot aisles are striped to maintain open
access to the neighbor’s garage at all times, and this arrangement has functioned smoothly for
many years. The church previously had an agreement with the homeowner to ensure their needs
were fully met, and the current property owner supports this sale and proposed use. We intend
to maintain this respectful and cooperative relationship going forward.
Conclusion
As a 16-year Edina resident and owner of Mis Amigos Spanish Immersion Preschool, I am deeply
committed to enhancing our community while respecting its history and character. This project
continues the property’s legacy as a place of service and learning, preserves a beloved
neighborhood landmark, and provides a valuable resource for local families.
We respectfully request approval of this Conditional Use Permit to allow both continued worship
and licensed childcare operations at 4201 W 50th St.

To Whom it May Concern,
Mis Amigos Spanish Immersion Preschool intends to use this property as a licensed early childhood
education center serving children ages 0-5. Our program provides full-time Spanish immersion
preschool and childcare in a nurturing, culturally rich environment. We plan to preserve the existing
building, including the sanctuary space (which will continue to be rented to a church on Sundays), while
updating the interior to meet state childcare requirements.
Founded in 2001, Mis Amigos is Minnesota’s oldest Spanish immersion preschool and has successfully
expanded to multiple locations across the Twin Cities. Instruction is 100% in Spanish, creating an
authentic immersion experience that fosters bilingual development through play, learning, and daily
interaction. As a 16-year Edina resident, I’m deeply invested in bringing this program to my own
community. Mis Amigos has built a strong reputation for high-quality care, integrity, and respect for the
neighborhoods we serve. We believe this location will be a positive addition to Edina, maintaining the
character of the property while providing a valuable service for local families.
Thank you,
Dawn Uribe

Relieves practical difficulties created by the lot’s historic configuration and size while keeping
the building intact.
The property’s size and layout were established long before current zoning standards were
adopted. The existing lot (1.12 acres) cannot meet today’s minimum acreage or setback
requirements for childcare or religious use without demolishing or significantly altering the
building. Reinstating the Conditional Use Permit allows us to maintain and use the structure as it
was originally built, avoiding unnecessary demolition while keeping the building’s footprint and
neighborhood presence unchanged.
Addresses extraordinary circumstances unique to this long-established property that predate
current zoning requirements.
This building has been part of the neighborhood since 1946, serving as a church and community
gathering place for nearly 80 years. Its configuration, setbacks, and lot size reflect standards from
that era and cannot be replicated under current zoning. These are unique, site-specific
circumstances that warrant flexibility. Renewing the Conditional Use Permit recognizes the
property’s long-standing institutional use and allows it to continue serving the community in a
compatible way.
Aligns with the intent of the zoning ordinance by preserving community-serving institutional
use within a residential area.
Both churches and childcare centers are recognized by the zoning code as appropriate
community-serving uses in residential districts when approved under a Conditional Use Permit.
This proposal continues those same uses—faith and education—within the existing building,
maintaining the spirit and intent of the ordinance. The property will remain a quiet,
neighborhood-based institution that strengthens the community without introducing
commercial activity or incompatible development.
Maintains the character of the neighborhood by retaining the existing structure, protecting its
architectural legacy, and ensuring quiet, daytime-oriented activity consistent with the property’s
historic use.
We intend to preserve the building’s exterior and architectural character, which has long been
part of the West 50th Street landscape. The sanctuary will remain a worship space, while
weekday childcare use will bring gentle, daytime activity similar in scale and rhythm to previous
church and preschool operations. This approach keeps the neighborhood’s look and feel intact
while ensuring the property continues to be a welcoming, low-impact community space.

Traffic and Parking Study for 4201 W. 50th Street
Executive Summary
The purpose of this Traffic and Parking Study is to evaluate the impacts of the proposed
child daycare and church located at 4201 W. 50th Street in Edina, MN. The proposed project
would be located in the existing vacant church building.
This study examined weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hour and Sunday peak hour traffic
impacts of the proposed development at the following intersections:
• W. 50th Street/Halifax Avenue/Market Street
• W. 50th Street/Indianola Avenue
• W. 50th Street/Arden Avenue
• W. 50th Street/Wooddale Avenue
• W. 50th Street/parking lot access
• Indianola Avenue/parking lot access
The proposed project involves remodeling the existing building into a child daycare center
and a church. The daycare center will have space for 146 children and 25 staff. The church
will have space for 276 occupants. The daycare will operate Monday through Friday. The
church is assumed to have one service on Sunday at 10:00 a.m.. The site plan shows 71
total parking spaces in the parking lot behind the building. As shown in the site plan, the
project includes one access on W. 50th Street and one on Indianola Avenue. The project is
expected to be completed in 2027.
The conclusions drawn from the information and analyses presented in this report are as
follows:
• The proposed project is expected to generate 133 trips during the weekday a.m.
peak hour, 143 trips during the weekday p.m. peak hour, and 845 trips daily On
Sunday, the proposed project is expected to generate 101 trips during the 9:00-
10:00 a.m. hour and 101 trips during the 11:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. hour.
• The trips added to the roadway system by the proposed project are expected to have
minimal impact on traffic operations on the surrounding street system. No
improvements are needed at the subject intersections to accommodate the proposed
project.
• Parking data from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) was used to
determine the expected parking demand for the daycare center. Data provided in
the ITE publication Parking Generation, 6th Edition, results in a peak weekday parking
demand of 37 spaces for the daycare center. The 71 total spaces provided are 34
spaces greater than the demand.
• For the church, the peak Sunday parking demand was determined assuming an
average vehicle occupancy of 3.0 persons per vehicle. This vehicle occupancy was
determined from industry information for church facilities from the Urban Land
Institute and experiences on other church parking studies. With a maximum
occupancy event of 276 persons, the peak parking demand is 92 spaces. The 71
total spaces provided are 21 spaces less than the demand.
Page 198 of 494
• Edina City code requires 33 spaces for the daycare center and 83 parking stalls for
the church. The 71 total spaces provided is 38 spaces greater than the City code
requirement for the daycare center. The 71 total spaces provided is 12 spaces less
than the City code requirement for the church.
• In order to accommodate potential excess parking demand, the project owner should
develop a parking plan that clearly identifies options for parking demand greater
than the spaces provided on-site. This could include items such as providing off-site
parking locations and/or valet parking during a maximum occupancy event.
• Future plans for this area include a shared use path on Arden Avenue, which is part
of a larger loop system envisioned for the City. The proposed project will benefit
from the existing and proposed sidewalk and bicycle facilities in this area.
• Per City requirements, a Travel Demand Management (TDM) plan is required for this
project. The goal of the TDM plan is to reduce vehicular trips during peak hours and
carbon emissions from vehicles. TDM strategies for this site include:
o Providing maps that show the area bus routes and schedules.
o Providing maps of bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
o Providing information on starting and joining commuter programs.
o Providing bicycle parking spaces for employees and facility users.
The goal of the TDM plan is a 10 percent reduction in single occupant vehicle trips.
The TDM plan strategies should be implemented at the time the project is complete
and fully operational.

project includes one access on W. 50th Street and one on Indianola Avenue. The project is
expected to be completed in 2027.
The conclusions drawn from the information and analyses presented in this report are as
follows:
• The proposed project is expected to generate 133 trips during the weekday a.m.
peak hour, 143 trips during the weekday p.m. peak hour, and 845 trips daily On
Sunday, the proposed project is expected to generate 101 trips during the 9:00-
10:00 a.m. hour and 101 trips during the 11:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. hour.
• The trips added to the roadway system by the proposed project are expected to have
minimal impact on traffic operations on the surrounding street system. No
improvements are needed at the subject intersections to accommodate the proposed
project.
• Parking data from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) was used to
determine the expected parking demand for the daycare center. Data provided in
the ITE publication Parking Generation, 6th Edition, results in a peak weekday parking
demand of 37 spaces for the daycare center. The 71 total spaces provided are 34
spaces greater than the demand.
• For the church, the peak Sunday parking demand was determined assuming an
average vehicle occupancy of 3.0 persons per vehicle. This vehicle occupancy was
determined from industry information for church facilities from the Urban Land
Institute and experiences on other church parking studies. With a maximum
occupancy event of 276 persons, the peak parking demand is 92 spaces. The 71
total spaces provided are 21 spaces less than the demand.

• Edina City code requires 33 spaces for the daycare center and 83 parking stalls for
the church. The 71 total spaces provided is 38 spaces greater than the City code
requirement for the daycare center. The 71 total spaces provided is 12 spaces less
than the City code requirement for the church.
• In order to accommodate potential excess parking demand, the project owner should
develop a parking plan that clearly identifies options for parking demand greater
than the spaces provided on-site. This could include items such as providing off-site
parking locations and/or valet parking during a maximum occupancy event.
• Future plans for this area include a shared use path on Arden Avenue, which is part
of a larger loop system envisioned for the City. The proposed project will benefit
from the existing and proposed sidewalk and bicycle facilities in this area.
• Per City requirements, a Travel Demand Management (TDM) plan is required for this
project. The goal of the TDM plan is to reduce vehicular trips during peak hours and
carbon emissions from vehicles. TDM strategies for this site include:
o Providing maps that show the area bus routes and schedules.
o Providing maps of bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
o Providing information on starting and joining commuter programs.
o Providing bicycle parking spaces for employees and facility users.
The goal of the TDM plan is a 10 percent reduction in single occupant vehicle trips.
The TDM plan strategies should be implemented at the time the project is complete
and fully operational.

2.0 Purpose and Background
The purpose of this Traffic and Parking Study is to evaluate the impacts of the proposed
child daycare and church located at 4201 W. 50th Street in Edina, MN. The proposed project
would be located in the existing vacant church building. The project location is shown in
Figure 1.
This study examined weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hour and Sunday peak hour traffic
impacts of the proposed development at the following intersections:
• W. 50th Street/Halifax Avenue/Market Street
• W. 50th Street/Indianola Avenue
• W. 50th Street/Arden Avenue
• W. 50th Street/Wooddale Avenue
• W. 50th Street/parking lot access
• Indianola Avenue/parking lot access
Proposed Development Characteristics
The proposed project involves remodeling the existing building into a child daycare center
and a church. The daycare center will have space for 146 children and 25 staff. The church
will have space for 276 occupants. The daycare will operate Monday through Friday. The
church is assumed to have one service on Sunday at 10:00 a.m.. The site plan shows 71
total parking spaces in the parking lot behind the building. As shown in the site plan, the
project includes one access on W. 50th Street and one on Indianola Avenue.
The project is expected to be completed in 2027. The current site plan is shown in
Figure 2.

3.0 Existing Conditions
The proposed project location currently contains a vacant church building and parking area.
The site is bounded by W. 50th Street on the north, Indianola Avenue on the east, and
residential uses on the west and south.
Near the site location, W. 50th Street, Wooddale Avenue, and Halifax Avenue are two lane
roadways with turn lanes and signal control at major intersections. Arden Avenue and
Indianola Avenue are two lane undivided roadways. Existing conditions at the proposed
project location are shown in Figure 3 and described below.
W. 50th Street/Wooddale Avenue
This four-way intersection is controlled with a traffic signal. The eastbound and westbound
approaches provide a left turn lane, a through lane, and a through/right turn lane. The
northbound approach provides a left turn/through/right turn lane. The southbound
approaches provide a left turn/through and a right turn lane.
W. 50th Street/Arden Avenue
This four-way intersection is controlled with stop signs on the northbound and southbound
approaches. All approaches provide one left turn/through/right turn lane.
W. 50th Street/Indianola Avenue
This three-way intersection is controlled with a stop sign on the northbound approach. All
approaches provide a single lane shared by turning and through movements.
W. 50th Street/Halifax Avenue/Market Street
This four-way intersection is controlled with a traffic signal. The eastbound approach
provides a left turn lane, a through lane, and a right turn lane. The westbound approach
provides a left turn lane and a through/right turn lane. The northbound approach provides
a left turn lane and a through/right turn lane. The southbound approaches provide a left
turn/through and a right turn lane.
Traffic Volume Data
Weekday traffic volume data was recorded at each intersection in October, 2025 on a
weekday and on a Sunday. During this time period, the W. 50th Street bridge over TH 100
was closed for construction. The collected volumes were adjusted to account for the closure
using traffic counts data from past studies in the area and daily traffic volume data from the
Minnesota Department of Transportation. The resultant volumes are presented later in this
report.

4.0 Traffic Forecasts
Traffic Forecast Scenarios
To adequately address the impacts of the proposed project, forecasts and analyses were
completed for the year 2027. Specifically, weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hour and Sunday
peak our traffic forecasts were completed for the following scenarios:
• 2025 Existing. Existing volumes were determined through traffic counts at the subject
intersections. The existing volume information includes trips generated by the uses
near the project site.
• 2027 No-Build. Existing volumes at the subject intersections were increased by 1.0
percent per year to determine 2027 No-Build volumes. The 1.0 percent per year
growth rate was calculated based on both recent growth experienced near the site.
• 2027 Build. Trips generated by the proposed development were added to the 2027
No-Build volumes to determine 2027 Build volumes.
Trip Generation for Proposed Project
Weekday trip generation totals for the proposed daycare center and for the church were
calculated using data presented in the eleventh edition of Trip Generation, published by the
Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). Sunday trip generation for the church was
determined assuming a peak attendance 276 people. Based on information from similar
facilities, a vehicle occupancy of 3.0 persons per vehicle was used to determine the trip
generation. The resultant trip generation estimates are shown in Tables 4-1 and 4-2.

Trip Distribution Percentages
Trip distribution percentages for the subject development trips were established based on
the nearby roadway network, existing and expected future traffic patterns, and location of
the subject development in relation to major attractions and population concentrations.
The distribution percentages for trips generated by the proposed development are as
follows:
• 40 percent to/from the east on W. 50th Street
• 40 percent to/from the west on W. 50th Street
• 10 percent to/from the south on Wooddale Avenue
• 10 percent to/from the south on Halifax Avenue
Traffic Volumes
Development trips were assigned to the surrounding roadway network using the preceding
trip distribution percentages. Traffic volumes were established for all the forecasting
scenarios described earlier during the weekday a.m. and p.m. and Sunday peak hours. The
resultant traffic volumes are presented in Figures 4 and 5.

5.0 Traffic Analysis
Intersection Level of Service Analysis
Traffic analyses were completed for the subject intersections for all scenarios described
earlier during the weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hours using Synchro/SimTraffic software.
Initial analysis was completed using existing geometrics and intersection control.
Capacity analysis results are presented in terms of level of service (LOS), which is defined in
terms of traffic delay at the intersection. LOS ranges from A to F. LOS A represents the
best intersection operation, with little delay for each vehicle using the intersection. LOS F
represents the worst intersection operation with excessive delay. In accordance with
MnDOT traffic study guidelines, this analysis used the LOS D/E boundary as an indicator of
acceptable traffic operations. The following is a detailed description of the conditions
described by each LOS designation:
• Level of service A corresponds to a free flow condition with motorists virtually
unaffected by the intersection control mechanism. For a signalized or an
unsignalized intersection, the average delay per vehicle would be approximately 10
seconds or less.
• Level of service B represents stable flow with a high degree of freedom, but with
some influence from the intersection control device and the traffic volumes. For a
signalized intersection, the average delay ranges from 10 to 20 seconds. An
unsignalized intersection would have delays ranging from 10 to 15 seconds for this
level.
• Level of service C depicts a restricted flow which remains stable, but with significant
influence from the intersection control device and the traffic volumes. The general
level of comfort and convenience changes noticeably at this level. The delay ranges
from 20 to 35 seconds for a signalized intersection and from 15 to 25 seconds for an
unsignalized intersection at this level.
• Level of service D corresponds to high-density flow in which speed and freedom are
significantly restricted. Though traffic flow remains stable, reductions in comfort and
convenience are experienced. The control delay for this level is 35 to 55 seconds for
a signalized intersection and 25 to 35 seconds for an unsignalized intersection.
• Level of service E represents unstable flow of traffic at or near the capacity of the
intersection with poor levels of comfort and convenience. The delay ranges from 55
to 80 seconds for a signalized intersection and from 35 to 50 seconds for an
unsignalized intersection at this level.
• Level of service F represents forced flow in which the volume of traffic approaching
the intersection exceeds the volume that can be served. Characteristics often
experienced include long queues, stop-and-go waves, poor travel times, low comfort
and convenience, and increased accident exposure. Delays over 80 seconds for a
signalized intersection and over 50 seconds for an unsignalized intersection
correspond to this level of service.

Overall Traffic Impact
Under 2025, 2027 No Build, and 2027 Build conditions, left turns onto W. 50th Street at
Arden Avenue operate at poor levels of service with minor street stop control due to the
large amount of through traffic on W. 50th Street. While not ideal, this condition often
occurs at minor street stop controlled intersections with large volumes on the major street.
Page 215 of 494
January 2026 5-8
As an additional check, the queue lengths on Ardern Avenue were reviewed to determine if
they are excessive. Due to the low volume of traffic on Arden Avenue, the queue lengths
are not expected to be excessive under any of the scenarios.
The trips added to the roadway system by the proposed development are expected to have
minimal impact on traffic operations on the surrounding street system. No improvements
are needed at the subject intersections to accommodate the proposed project.
Traffic Volume on Maple Road
Maple Road extends north from W. 50th Street and connects with 48th and 49th Streets, both
which connect with France Avenue to the east. Some traffic to and from the north on
France Avenue could divert onto 48th Street or 49th Street to use Maple Road to access the
site. Based on travel time information and the access locations to the site, it is expected
that only a small amount of traffic may use this route. We estimate that 6-8 vehicles may
use this route during the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. This level of additional traffic during
the peak hours would not result in any traffic operation problems.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities
Under existing conditions, sidewalk is provided on both sides of W. 50th Street and the west
side of Indianola Avenue near the proposed project. Sidewalk is also provided on both sides
of Halifax Avenue, Market Street, Arden Avenue north of W. 50th Street, and Wooddale
Avenue north of W. 50th Street. Sidewalk is provided on the east side of Wooddale Avenue
south of W. 50th Street. No sidewalk is provided on Arden Avenue south of W. 50th Street.
Bicycles are allowed on all the surrounding streets.
Future plans for this area include a shared use path on Arden Avenue, which is part of a
larger loop system envisioned for the City. The proposed project will benefit from the
existing and proposed sidewalk and bicycle facilities in this area.
Transit Facilities
The subject site presently is served by Metro Transit bus route 46 on W. 50th Street. Bus
stops exist on both sides of W. 50th Street at the project location.
Travel Demand Management Plan (TDM)
Per City requirements, a Travel Demand Management (TDM) plan is required for this
project. The goal of the TDM plan is to reduce vehicular trips during peak hours and carbon
emissions from vehicles. TDM strategies for this site include:
• Providing maps that show the area bus routes and schedules.
• Providing maps of bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
• Providing information on starting and joining commuter programs.
• Providing bicycle parking spaces for employees and facility users.
The goal of the TDM plan is a 10 percent reduction in single occupant vehicle trips. The
TDM plan strategies should be implemented at the time the project is complete and fully
operational.

January 2026 6-1
6.0 Parking Analysis
As described earlier, the site plan shows 71 total parking spaces in the existing parking lot
behind the building. Parking demand was calculated separately for the daycare center,
which operates only on weekdays, and for the church assuming a maximum capacity service
on a Sunday.
Parking data from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) was used to determine the
expected parking demand for the daycare center. Data provided in the ITE publication
Parking Generation, 6th Edition, results in a peak weekday parking demand of 37 spaces for
the daycare center.
For the church, the peak Sunday parking demand was determined assuming an average
vehicle occupancy of 3.0 persons per vehicle. This vehicle occupancy was determined from
industry information for church facilities from the Urban Land Institute and experiences on
other church parking studies. With maximum occupancy event of 276 persons, the peak
parking demand is 92 spaces.
Edina City code requires 33 spaces for the daycare and 83 parking stalls for the church.
Based on this information, the existing 71 stalls are adequate for the daycare center on
weekdays but less than the expected peak parking demand for the church.
In order to accommodate potential excess parking demand, the project owner should
develop a parking plan that clearly identifies options for parking demand greater than the
spaces provided on-site. This could include items such as providing off-site parking
locations and/or valet parking during maximum occupancy events.

File: 193807565 Date: January 13, 2026
Reference: Traffic and Parking Study Additional Information for 4201 W. 50th Street in Edina, MN
The following additional Traffic and Parking Study information is provided in response to items presented in
an email dated December 28, 2025 from B. Steven Springrose.
Traffic Volumes on W. 50th Street
Traffic volume data on W. 50th Street west of Wooddale Avenue cited in the email was collected in 2021.
Since that time, new traffic data has been collected showing traffic volumes have decreased approximately 6
percent. The traffic volume on W. 50th Street west of Wooddale is the highest volume location included in this
study. Information from MnDOT indicates the current annual average daily traffic (AADT) volume is 29,281
west of Wooddale Avenue, 17,153 immediately east of Wooddale Avenue, and 10,067 east of Halifax
Avenue. Therefore, traffic volumes decrease on W. 50th Street as you move east toward France Avenue due
to the residential uses to the north and south.
As stated in the report, traffic volume data was recorded at each intersection in October, 2025 on a weekday
and on a Sunday. During this time period, the W. 50th Street bridge over TH 100 was closed for construction.
The collected volumes were adjusted to account for the closure using detailed traffic counts data from past
studies in the area and daily traffic volume data from the Minnesota Department of Transportation. As shown
in the report, the p.m. peak hour volumes on the west end are 1,104 eastbound and 969 westbound. On the
east end, the p.m. peak hour volumes are 495 eastbound and 368 westbound.
Level of Service Results
Capacity analysis results are presented in terms of level of service (LOS), which is defined in terms of traffic
delay at the intersection. LOS ranges from A to F. LOS A represents the best intersection operation, with
little delay for each vehicle using the intersection. LOS F represents the worst intersection operation with
excessive delay. The LOS results account for the amount of traffic on the major street and minor street
approaches. LOS results are presented for the entire intersection and for the worst movement. In the case of
minor street stop controlled intersections, the worst movement is typically left turns from the minor street onto
the major street.
At this location, the highest volumes on W. 50th Street occur during the weekday p.m. peak hour. All overall
intersections operate at LOS A or B during the weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hours. At Arden Avenue, the
minor street approaches operate at LOS E during the a.m. peak hour and LOS F during the p.m. peak hour.
At Jay Place, the minor street approach operates at LOS C during the a.m. peak hour under existing
conditions and LOS D under future conditions. During the p.m. peak hour, the minor street approach
operates at LOS D under existing conditions and LOS E under future conditions. At Indianola Avenue, the
minor street approach operates at LOS C during the a.m. peak hour under existing conditions and future
conditions. During the p.m. peak hour, the minor street approach operates at LOS D under existing
conditions and LOS E under future conditions.
As noted above, the volumes on W. 50th Street decrease between Wooddale Avenue and Halifax Avenue.
With higher volumes at Arden Avenue, the minor street operates at LOS F during the p.m. peak hour. With
slightly lower volumes at Jay Place and Indianola Avenue, the minor street approaches operate and LOS D
and E during the p.m. peak hour.

Jay Place Width
Construction plans indicate the width of Jay Street is 19 feet curb face to curb face. This width is less than
the preferred minimum width of 20 feet for public streets. The provided width may be challenging at times
with additional traffic, but serious operational issues are not expected. The site has an additional access to
Indianola Avenue which can be used if the Jay Street access is temporarily blocked.
It is expected that trips to and from the site will be split between Jay Place and Indianola Avenue. As shown
in the report, this results in 36 entering and 31 exiting trips during the a.m. peak hour and 33 entering and 38
exiting during the p.m. peak hour at Jay Place.
Trip Generation
Weekday trip generation totals for the proposed daycare center and for the church were calculated using data
presented in the eleventh edition of Trip Generation, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers
(ITE). The ITE data is the industry standard for traffic studies and is based on actual data collected at
multiple sites throughout the country. The trip generation totals include all trips to and from the site, including
parent drop-off/pick-up, staff, visitors, and deliveries.
Information from the day care operator indicated the facility is open from 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.. The main
drop off times are 7:30 to 9:00 a.m. and the main pickup times are 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. Drop-offs and pick-ups
are distributed throughout the main times and do not all occur at once.
Trip Distribution
The proposed daycare center and church are expected draw users from all directions, resulting in equal
distribution to and from the east and west. This differs from nearby residential uses, which are likely drawn
more heavily to and from the west due to the proximity of TH 100.
Traffic in the Neighborhood to the South
Due to the close proximity and direct access, the vast majority of trips are expected to use W. 50th Street for
entering and exiting the site. A small portion of trips may use Indianola Avenue to travel to and from the south
to access W. 52nd Street. If 5 percent of the trips use this route, this results in 6 trips during the a.m. peak
hour and 6 trips during the p.m. peak hour. This level of additional traffic during the peak hours would not
result in any traffic operation problems.
Parking
All parking stalls shown in the site plan are available for use by the daycare and church. Access for the
garage that is adjacent to the parking lot must be maintained as currently striped. The daycare and church
operator must continue to work with the adjacent neighbors to maintain access to these parking stalls.
Summary
The traffic volumes used in the study were developed using the volumes collected for the study and the latest
MnDOT volumes and detailed turn movement counts collected in 2025 for other studies in the area. Traffic
volumes on W. 50th Street decrease from west to east through the study area. Using a constant volume
through the study area would not be realistic. The trip generation was determined using ITE data, which is
the standard for traffic studies. The proposed daycare center and church are expected draw users from all
directions, resulting in equal distribution to and from the east and west. All vehicles entering and exiting the
site must yield to all pedestrian and non-street traffic.

Public Input- 4201 50th St. W. CUP
Aaron in White Oaks. This proposal does not address traffic and noise implications of t
he new uses; I am concerned about both and expect that appropriate studies will be co
mpleted and made public for comment. In addition, while "a parking stall variance and
a lot are variance" are mentioned, the details and implications are not. Do these varian
ces mean the existing number of parking spaces and lot size do not meet requirements
for a church and day care? Does this mean people will be parking on the street and ca
using congestion in the adjacent neighborhoods?
Hello, this is Pat Biersdorf at 5040 Juanita Avenue in Edina, and I'm just thrilled that th
e church would be purposed again for a church and a preschool daycare. I think it's wo
nderful. We have lived at 5040 Juanita for 30 years and our driveway backs up to the c
hurch parking lot, and I'm so thrilled they would be using that facility in that building for
this purpose as opposed to tearing it down and building high rises, condos, etc., which
we seem to have more than enough of. So, again, I just want to voice my support that I
think it's a fabulous, wonderful idea and I hope it gets approved in every way. So thank
you so much. I'm just giving full support to that project. Thank you so much. (Transcrib
ed by City Staff. Voicemail received 11/28/25 at 3:55 p.m.)
I support the waiver request. Churches should be free to obtain waivers for vital comm
unity services such as daycare and maintain their constitutional right to free exercise of
religion. I can't imagine this will present any sort of significant traffic issue.
This is Barbara Kruse. Address is 4075 West 51st Street, Edina. I'm responding to a no
tice of public hearing that I received saying that the Mis Amigos has requested a permit
to operate a church and license childhood early childhood education center at 4201 W
est 51st street. I believe that is the old Mercy Commons covenant Church property. I w
ould like to see something of value in going into that property. It's pretty historic, beautif
ul church, beautiful property, and I think a school and another church would be an appr
opriate use for that area. Thank you. (Transcribed by City Staff. Voicemail received 12/

GUEST BOOK
Public Input- 4201 50th St. W. CUP
This is Mary Jo Ekman, 5003 Arden Avenue in Edina. My husband and I are not able to
attend the 1/20/26 public hearing where the proposed new use of Mercy Commons Co
venant Church will be discussed. We are therefore providing our written feedback here
online. We live on the east side of Arden, two houses in from the SE corner of 50th and
Arden Ave. Our driveway opens onto Jay Place. We are not in favor of the proposed u
se of the Mercy Commons property (4201 W. 50th St.). The main reason for our opposi
tion is the potential additional M-F traffic congestion that the early childhood education
center will cause. It is our understanding that this proposal will cause additional traffic o
n 50th Street, Jay Place, Indianola Avenue and surrounding areas. Before we address
any specific impacts of this proposal, it is wise to recognize today's traffic flow. Traffic in
this area is often very heavy, with rush hour traffic on 50th St. sometimes bumper to bu
mper or even stopped completely. Our driveway is located behind our home and opens
onto Jay Place. With today's traffic levels, it's difficult and often dangerous for us to tur
n onto 50th from Jay Place. The same thing can be said for Bruce, Arden and Indianol
a Avenues. It is important then to address the very practical realities of what an additio
nal ~60-80?) cars in the morning and evening (for early education center drop off and p
ick up) will cause; congestion in the area, in general, will increase beyond the already
heavy levels. First, 50th St. will be backed up even further, as east and westbound cars
will be looking to enter and exit the education center. Indianola, Arden and Jay Place w
ill be even harder to access as a result. Second, we anticipate having to stop and wait i
n our driveway before we can back out onto Jay Place, as cars will be streaming into th
e parking lot for pick up or completely stopped on Jay Place, waiting for an opening to t
urn onto 50th. This is safety concern and a real inconvenience for those homes like our
s whose driveways open onto Jay Place. Third, pedestrian safety most definitely will be
impacted, with more vehicle traffic and congestion in the area. Thank you for the oppor
tunity to provide this input and feedback.
My name is Andrew Johnson, 5001 Arden Ave, writing against the conditional use per
mit. While I don't necessarily oppose a day care operating in the church, I'm very conc
erned about the additional vehicular traffic on Jay Place that will inevitably come with it
. The current traffic flow in and out of the church parking lot for drop-offs/pick-ups woul
d overwhelm Jay Place, causing it to back-up and block the driveways on it. My drivew
ay access is along Jay Place and my concern is egress and ingress to my driveway du
ring drop-off and pick-up hours. With just one to two cars sitting at the stop sign, we wo
uld be unable to access our driveway. Anyone who lives along 50th Street in this corrid
or knows how long one must wait and how treacherous it is to make a turn with traffic, l
et alone a cross-traffic turn. Allowing the day care to operate would make this existing t
raffic problem even worse. We'd be open to revisitng a proposal like this in the future if
the conditional use permit comes with specific actions to mitigate the traffic concerns, b
ut until then as a neighbor and resident who will be directly impacted by this permit, I r
espectfully ask that this conditional use permit is denied.

Resolution 2026-05: Approving a Conditional Use Permit
to Operate a Religious Institution and School with
Variances for Parking and Lot Size for Mis Amigos
Spanish Immersion Preschool at 4201 W. 50th St.

Section 1. BACKGROUND
1. Mis Amigos Spanish Immersion preschool is requesting a conditional use permit to continue
operating the existing church property at 4201 W 50thStreet as a place of worship and a licensed
early childhood education center. The proposed church use has been present on the site since
the church was originally developed in 1955. The church closed in Winter of 2023 and there has
not been a church or school in operation since. Due to the use stopping in 2023, a conditional
use permit is required for a church and school use to continue on site.
2. The property is zoned R-1, Single-Dwelling Unit District, which lists “religious institutions” and “day
care facilities, preschools and nursery schools” as conditionally permitted uses.
3. The property is address is 4201 W. 50thStreet and is legally described as:
Real property in the City of Edina, County of Hennepin, State of Minnesota described as
follows:
Lot One (1), Block Two (2), and the East One-half (E1/2) of Lot Two (2), Block Two (2)
STEVENS’ 1ST ADDITION TO MINNEAPOLIS, together with that part of the vacated East/West
alley accruing thereto
And
That part lying North of the South Twenty (20) feet of Lot Four (4), Block Two (2), STEVENS’
FIRST ADDITION TO MINNEAPOLIS together with that part of the vacated North/South alley
accruing thereto
And
Lot Seven (7), Block Two (2) STEVENS’ 1ST ADDITION TO MINNEAPOLIS, together with those
parts of the vacated East/West and North/South alleys accruing thereto

1ST ADDITION TO MINNEAPOLIS, together with that part of the vacated North/South alley
accruing thereto.
Hennepin County, Minnesota
4. On November 26, 2025, Mis Amigos submitted a complete application for a conditional use
permit with variances.
5. On December 10, 2025, the Planning Commission held a public hearing and considered the
request and voted 8-0 to recommend approval of the conditional use permit with variances.
6. On February 4, 2026, the City Council held a public hearing and considered the requested
conditional use permit.
Page 298 of 494
Section 2. FINDINGS
Approval of the conditional use permit and variances for parking and lot size for a religious institution
and school for Mis Amigos Spanish Immersion Preschool to operate a place of worship and early
childhood education center at 4201 W. 50thStreet is based on the following findings:
1. The proposed use meets all conditions to grant a conditional use permit.
2. The project does not have an undue adverse impact on government facilities, utilities, or
service.
3. The proposed project will have minimal impact on traffic operations on the surrounding street
system.
4. The project does not have an undue adverse impact on public health, safety or welfare.
5. The project will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of other
property in the vicinity.
6. The project is consistent with the comprehensive plan.
7. The application meets the variance criteria for the parking variance and lot size variance.
8. The application allows the property owner to continue the use of the property as it has been
used since it was originally developed in the 1950’s. The size of the lot, the proposed uses, and
the number of parking spaces are not changing.
9. The proposed variances will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood.
Section 3. APPROVAL
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Edina City Council approves the conditional use permit with
variances for parking and lot size for a religious institution and school for Mis Amigos Spanish
immersion Preschool to operate a place of worship and early childhood education center at 4201 W.
50thStreet. Approval is subject to the following conditions:
1. All operations of the business shall be consistent with the application materials included in the
February 4, City Council packet.
2. The property owner is required to develop a parking plan that identifies options for parking
demand greater than the spaces provided on-site during a maximum occupancy event.
3. The property owner is required to submit a Travel Demand Management (TDM) plan.
4. That the City’s Traffic Safety Committee review the potential for a crosswalk across W. 50th
Street at Arden Avenue.

To: Planning Commission
From: Cary Teague, Community Development Director
Subject: Sketch Plan Review – 4200 76th Street West (Retail Store, Warehouse & Dropoff for Salvation Army)
Staff Recommendation: No recommendation. The Planning Commission is asked to provide non-
binding comments and direction on a potential future development request. The proposed use (A
Secondhand Retail Store over 2,500 square feet in size) is not allowed in any zoning district.
Retail sales as a primary use is not allowed in the PID, Planned Industrial District in which this site
is located.
Information/Background:
The Planning Commission has been asked to consider a sketch plan proposal to remodel and reuse the
existing 28,000 square foot building at 4200 76th Street West. The proposed use is an 18,425 square
foot Salvation Army retail store with a 9,434 square foot warehouse and indoor drop off. Potential
requests by the applicant for a formal application include the following options:
1. Rezoning the site from PID, Planned Industrial District to a PCD, Planned Commercial District,
with a Zoning Ordinance Amendment to allow secondhand stores to exceed 2,500 square feet
in size. A Comprehensive Plan Amendment from OR, Office Residential to a Mixed Use or
Commercial Land Use; or
2. A Zoning Ordinance Amendment and Comprehensive Plan Amendment. The Ordinance
amendment would be to allow Secondhand stores as a primary use and at any size in the PID,
Planned Industrial Zoning District. The Comprehensive Plan Amendment would be to allow
retail sales as a primary use in the OR, Office Residential land use category.
As mentioned above, the proposed use (A Secondhand Retail Store over 2,500 square feet in size) is
not allowed in any zoning district. Retail sales as a primary use is not allowed in the PID, Planned
Industrial District. Areas of focus for the Planning Commission should be the following:
➢ Should retail sales (secondhand stores) be allowed in the Industrial
Zoning District as a primary use?
➢ Is the site appropriate for Commercial/Retail Zoning?
➢ Should the Comprehensive Plan be amended to allow retail as a primary
land use in the OR, Office Residential land use category.
➢ Should the Comprehensive Plan be amended to re-guide the site for
Commercial land use.
Page 305 of 494
Issues/Considerations:
Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan guides this site for OR, Office Residential land uses.
Below describes the land use, development character and density:
Categories Description, Land Uses Development
Character and
Guidelines
Density
and
Intensity
OR
Office Residential
Transitional areas along
major thoroughfares or
between higher intensity
districts and residential
districts. Many existing
highway-oriented
commercial areas are
anticipated to transition to
this more mixed-use
character.
Primary uses are offices,
attached or multifamily
housing. Secondary uses:
Limited retail and service
uses (not including “big
box" retail), limited
industrial (fully enclosed),
institutional uses, parks and open
space. Vertical mixed use should be
encouraged and may be required on
larger sites.
Upgrade existing
streetscape and building
appearance, improve
pedestrian and transit
environment.
Encourage structured parking
and open space
linkages where feasible;
emphasize the enhancement of
the
pedestrian environment.
20 – 75 residential
dwelling units/acre
Primary uses are office and attached or multifamily housing. The proposed retail space is 18,425 square
feet and the warehouse and drop-off area is 9,434 square feet. Retail use would clearly be the primary
use of the site and not a secondary use. An amendment to the Comprehensive plan to allow retail as a
primary use would completely change the intent of this land use category in the City. To allow retail
use as a primary use could reduce office and light industrial land uses over time. Staff would
recommend that the City should maintain a strong balance of commercial, office and industrial land
uses.
As demonstrated on the attached Land Use Map in the attached PowerPoint Presentation, this site is
surrounded by Office and Residential Land Uses. To re-guide this site to a Commercial Land Use
district would not be compatible with the surrounding land uses.
Staff would not support these changes to the Comprehensive Plan.
Page 306 of 494
Rezoning. As demonstrated on the attached Zoning Map, this site is surrounded by properties that
are zoned PID, Planning Industrial District. To re-zone this site to a Commercial zoning designation
would not be compatible with the surrounding land uses and could be considered spot zoning.
Staff would not support a rezoning of the site for commercial uses.
Zoning Ordinance. Per Sec. 36-608 (47) of the Edina Zoning Ordinance “Secondhand stores, not
exceeding 2,500 square feet of gross floor area, but excluding pawn shops” are a permitted use in
the PCD 1-3, Planned Commercial Zoning districts. Therefore, the proposed secondhand store with
18,425 square feet of retail space and 9,434 square feet of warehouse would not be an allowable use
in any zoning district in the City of Edina. Staff would support an ordinance amendment that would
allow larger secondhand stores in the Commercial zoning district but not allow them in an industrial
zoning district. These types of secondhand store (Goodwill or Salvation Army) function the same as
any other retail use. The only difference is the addition of the customer drop-off area and
warehouse.

City Planner – Cary Teague
RE: Sketch Plan Review – 4200 W 76th St, Edina, MN
We have been authorized by The Salvation Army as its advisor to submit the enclosed sketch plan
review to Tenant’s interest to lease space at 4200 W 76th St, Edina, MN. (the "Building").
PREMISES:
Space consisting of approximately 27,495 square feet at 4200 W 76th St, Edina, MN ("Premises").
PROJECT SUMMARY, ZONING CONTEXT & COMMUNITY BENEFITS
The Salvation Army proposes a Family Store resale center with a donation drop-off and processing area at
4200 W 76th Street, repurposing an existing industrial/flex building into a visible, accessible reuse and
donation hub along the France Avenue corridor.
• Zoning & Entitlement Context: The property is currently zoned PID (Planned Industrial District).
Based on the City’s interpretation of “secondhand goods,” the proposed donation center and
retail-thrift use would require one of the following:
o Rezoning to a commercial district, along with a Comprehensive Plan Amendment, and a
corresponding zoning ordinance amendment to expand the permitted principal use
category from “Secondhand stores, not exceeding 2,500 square feet of gross floor area,
but excluding pawn shops” to “Secondhand stores, sales floor not exceeding ¾ of gross
floor area”; or
o A zoning ordinance amendment within the PID district to allow the same above expanded
secondhand store definition as a Principal Permitted Use, together with a Comprehensive
Plan Amendment.
• Adaptive Reuse & Sustainability: The project follows a model of adaptive reuse, converting an
underutilized industrial/flex building rather than demolishing it. This approach aligns with
sustainable development practices, preserves existing building stock, and supports a sustainable
donation-based model that diverts approximately 95% of donated textiles from landfills.
• Community Need & Equity Considerations: Compared to Edina overall, the surrounding
neighborhood has higher concentrations of residents who identify as:
o Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC)
o Living in poverty
o Foreign-born
o Unemployed
o Living with a physical or mental disability
o Lacking access to a personal vehicle
Providing this facility significantly improves access to affordable goods and donation services in
an area that has historically had limited access to cost-effective and sustainable retail options. The
Page 320 of 494
Page 2 of 8
2
site’s proximity to nearby affordable housing, including The Sound on 76th, further strengthens
its role as a neighborhood-serving use.
• Economic & Corridor Benefits - The Family Store will:
o Expand affordability in a corridor otherwise dominated by higher-cost retail
o Create approximately 12 full-time and 24 part-time jobs, supporting local households
o Reinforce ongoing reinvestment along France Avenue by activating an existing building
o Operate with no public subsidy, while directing all store proceeds to a nonprofit mission
that supports the broader community
In summary, the proposed Family Store transforms an underutilized flex property into a sustainable,
community-serving asset that aligns with Edina’s adopted plans, market realities, and evolving land use
vision—while delivering measurable social, environmental, and economic benefits.
PLANNING RATIONALE & COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ALIGNMENT:
1. The request supports the mixed evolution of the corridor, not an isolated change. The site sits
within a transition area where commercial, office, and residential uses already coexist. Retail is
one block away, office is adjacent, and housing is nearby. The proposed use does not introduce a
new intensity; it recognizes the corridor’s actual land-use condition and supports neighborhood-
scale reinvestment consistent with corridor redevelopment.
2. It directly implements the 2040 Comp Plan’s goals for reinvestment, sustainability, and adaptive
reuse. The project advances key policy areas by:
a. Reusing, not demolishing, existing buildings, avoids landfilled building waste and
preserves embodied carbon.
b. Supporting circular economy reuse, aligning with sustainability goals through donation,
recycling, and resale.
c. Activating underutilized flex space with a community-serving use rather than requiring
new construction.
d. Strengthening neighborhood services within walkable mixed-use corridors, as directed by
the Plan.
This is one of the few proposals where sustainability outcomes are certain on Day 1, not
theoretical.
3. This is not a “flex district” request — it is a policy-based, corridor-wide adjustment that avoids
spot zoning. The intent is not to tailor zoning to a single parcel, but to align the land-use
designation with how the corridor is functioning today and how the Comp Plan directs it to
evolve. The requested action:
a. Creates a consistent district interpretation that could apply to similar parcels along this
edge of the PID district, similar to LA Fitness across the street;
b. Implements established policy rather than creating a new one-off category; and
c. Reflects actual conditions, market realities, and community needs, rather than a site-
specific experiment.
4. Low-impact commercial use compatible with existing PID standards. The use generates less
traffic, noise, and industrial activity than many allowed tenants today. It functions as
“commercial-light,” fitting the corridor without increasing environmental or operational intensity.

5. The proposal advances community affordability without subsidy. By adapting existing buildings,
the project supports retail that would otherwise be cost-prohibitive in new construction. This
delivers:
a. affordable goods to residents in a high-cost retail area;
b. an accessible resource for adjacent income-restricted housing;
c. a rare community benefit that requires no TIF, no tax abatement, and no subsidy.
Adaptive reuse is the only viable planning tool that enables affordable, community-serving retail
in high-value areas like Edina.
6. The zoning code is outdated relative to market and policy conditions. The current code was
written for a different era of Edina’s growth when single-use office and industrial districts were
more active and market-viable. Today, the market favors mixed, right-sized neighborhood
commercial and adaptive reuse. Modernizing the designation does not create a new direction—it
simply aligns zoning with the City’s current economic, environmental, and policy context.

Edina Planning Commission
Edina City Council
City Planner – Cary Teague
RE: Sketch Plan Review – 4200 W 76th St, Edina, MN
We have been authorized by The Salvation Army as its advisor to submit the enclosed sketch plan
review to Tenant’s interest to lease space at 4200 W 76th St, Edina, MN. (the "Building").
PREMISES:
Space consisting of approximately 27,495 square feet at 4200 W 76th St, Edina, MN ("Premises").
PROJECT SUMMARY, ZONING CONTEXT & COMMUNITY BENEFITS
The Salvation Army proposes a Family Store resale center with a donation drop-off and processing area at
4200 W 76th Street, repurposing an existing industrial/flex building into a visible, accessible reuse and
donation hub along the France Avenue corridor.
• Zoning & Entitlement Context: The property is currently zoned PID (Planned Industrial District).
Based on the City’s interpretation of “secondhand goods,” the proposed donation center and
retail-thrift use would require one of the following:
o Rezoning to a commercial district, along with a Comprehensive Plan Amendment, and a
corresponding zoning ordinance amendment to expand the permitted principal use
category from “Secondhand stores, not exceeding 2,500 square feet of gross floor area,
but excluding pawn shops” to “Secondhand stores, sales floor not exceeding ¾ of gross
floor area”; or
o A zoning ordinance amendment within the PID district to allow the same above expanded
secondhand store definition as a Principal Permitted Use, together with a Comprehensive
Plan Amendment.
• Adaptive Reuse & Sustainability: The project follows a model of adaptive reuse, converting an
underutilized industrial/flex building rather than demolishing it. This approach aligns with
sustainable development practices, preserves existing building stock, and supports a sustainable
donation-based model that diverts approximately 95% of donated textiles from landfills.
• Community Need & Equity Considerations: Compared to Edina overall, the surrounding
neighborhood has higher concentrations of residents who identify as:
o Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC)
o Living in poverty
o Foreign-born
o Unemployed
o Living with a physical or mental disability
o Lacking access to a personal vehicle
Providing this facility significantly improves access to affordable goods and donation services in
an area that has historically had limited access to cost-effective and sustainable retail options. The
Page 324 of 494
Page 2 of 8

site’s proximity to nearby affordable housing, including The Sound on 76th, further strengthens
its role as a neighborhood-serving use.
• Economic & Corridor Benefits - The Family Store will:
o Expand affordability in a corridor otherwise dominated by higher-cost retail
o Create approximately 12 full-time and 24 part-time jobs, supporting local households
o Reinforce ongoing reinvestment along France Avenue by activating an existing building
o Operate with no public subsidy, while directing all store proceeds to a nonprofit mission
that supports the broader community
In summary, the proposed Family Store transforms an underutilized flex property into a sustainable,
community-serving asset that aligns with Edina’s adopted plans, market realities, and evolving land use
vision—while delivering measurable social, environmental, and economic benefits.
PLANNING RATIONALE & COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ALIGNMENT:
1. The request supports the mixed evolution of the corridor, not an isolated change. The site sits

The 60-Day Rule discussed previously applies to rezoning requests and an
automatic grant of the rezoning will result if the city does not comply with
the rule.
Rezoning represents a legislative act and needs only to have a rational
basis relating to public health, safety, morals, or general welfare. A city
must document, in findings of fact, the rational basis for the rezoning
decision. If a city has followed a comprehensive planning process, the
findings of fact should further the city's comprehensive plan. For example,
the fact that property zoned for residential purposes has greater value if
used for commercial purposes has never been grounds for rezoning when
the surrounding property is predominantly residential.
(1) Rezoning residential property
When property gets rezoned from residential to commercial or industrial, a
two-thirds majority of all members of the city council is required. (This
means there must be four affirmative votes on a five-member council, in
most cases.) For other rezoning decisions, a simple majority vote of all
members is all that is required, meaning three out of five votes for a five-
member council.
The Minnesota attorney general has issued an opinion that charter cities
may not alter this voting requirement in their charter. The purpose of state
law is to provide a uniform set of procedures for city planning and such
procedures apply to all cities, charter or statutory.
(2) Spot zoning
Property owners to do not have vested rights in the specific zoning of their
parcel.
Cities may exercise their legislative discretion to rezone property in
fu1therance of the public, health, safety and welfare. However, cities
should avoid a type ofrezoning known as "spot zoning."
Spot zoning usually involves the rezoning of a small parcel of land in a
manner that:
• Has no supp01ting rational basis that relates to promoting public
welfare.
• Establishes a use classification inconsistent with surrounding uses and
creates an island of nonconforming use within a larger zoned district
(for example one lot where industrial uses are permitted in an
othe1wise residential zone).

• Dramatically reduces the value for uses specified in the zoning

Spot zoning that results in a total destruction or substantial diminution in
the value of property may be considered a form of regulat01y taking of
private property without compensation.
In these rare instances, courts may award a property owner compensation
for damages related to a legislative rezoning.
D. Environmental review
Minnesota has adopted a comprehensive and detailed environmental
review program to determine the significant environmental effects of
private and governmental actions. The idea behind the program is that if
governmental bodies require documents that identify the environmental
consequences of a proposed development and those documents are
available to the public, decision-makers can incorporate environmental
protection into the proposed development. The law prohibits the issuance
of permits or development prior to completion of necessa1y documents.
The state-mandated environmental review process usually occurs in
conjunction with a city's administration of its zoning ordinance. The
environmental review process may require a city to delay consideration of
an application. The 60-Day Rule allows an extension for these purposes.
E. Fees and escrow
Proper zoning administration can require significant financial commitment
from a city. However, a city may establish land use fees under the
Municipal Planning Act sufficient to defray the costs incmTed by a city in
reviewing, investigating, and administering an application related to the
zoning ordinance.
Fees must be fair, reasonable, proportionate, and linked to the actual cost
of the service for which the fee is imposed. All cities must adopt
management and accounting procedures to ensure fees are maintained and
used only for the purpose for which they are collected. Upon request, a
city must explain the basis of its fees.
Upon request by an applicant for a permit, license, or other approval
relating to real estate development or constrnction, cities must provide a
written non-binding estimate of consulting fees to be charged to the
applicant based on the information available at that time.

Staff Report
Date: February 4, 2026
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Andrew Scipioni, Transportation Planner
Subject: Citywide Speed Limit Reduction Evaluation
Background
In 2021, the City of Edina reduced speed limits on most local streets from 30 mph to 25 mph. This reduction was
intended to improve safety and mobility for all users and all modes of transportation, consistent with goals reflected in
the Comprehensive Plan, the Living Streets Plan, the Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan and the Active Routes to School
Plan. This report will evaluate the impact of this change and provide recommendations for additional actions to support
roadway safety.
Several other cities adjacent to Edina have also reduced speed limits on local roads, including Minneapolis (2020), St.
Louis Park (2021), Richfield (2024) and Bloomington (2024). The Cities of Minnetonka and Eden Prairie have not made
changes to local speed limits. Hennepin County also made no changes to speed limits on their roadways within Edina.
Funding
The cost of implementation was estimated at $10,000. Actual costs were $12,326.10. New signage was purchased
through the Pedestrian and Cyclist Safety (PACS) Fund and installed by Public Works staff over the course of several
months. 245 traffic control signs were removed, replaced or added in 2021. Between 2021 and 2025, approximately
$7,500 of PACS Funds were used for advertising and marketing activities.
Communication
Shortly after implementation, Communications and Engineering launched the Drive 25 campaign to raise awareness of
the change in local speed limits. Information was provided to the general public through articles and advertisements in
the Sun Current and Edition: Edina, public service announcement and Agenda: Edina videos, and social media posts. Staff
also purchased branded car coasters and distributed them out at public events (most recently, at Fire Station #2 open
house).
Enforcement
Speed limits are enforced through verbal warnings and citations issued by the Edina Police Department at traffic stops. In
an average year, EPD issues 14,200-16,500 citations; of these, approximately 52% (7,400-8,600) have a speed-related
charge. EPD’s Traffic Division also utilizes a movable, radar speed trailer that informs drivers of their speed relative to
the posted limit. Occasionally, targeted enforcement is used at specific locations during specific time frames where staff
or residents have identified speeding concerns. In 2025, the Engineering Department purchased a temporary speed
display sign to aid in targeted speed enforcement. The temporary sign is relocated approximately every two months.
Page 339 of 494
No additional enforcement or police resources were dedicated as part of this initiative. Traffic data collected at the time
of implementation indicated that most drivers on local roads in Edina travel at or below the posted speed limits. The
most effective and sustainable strategy to address speeding is to make physical changes that make motorists feel
uncomfortable speeding. Such changes include narrowing streets and installing traffic calming devices. These treatments
are consistent with the guiding principles of the Living Streets Plan.
Speed and Crash Analysis
Staff reviewed speed and crash data as one metric of the impact of the speed limit change. Crash data was obtained from
the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. Speed data was collected by Engineering staff at 60 locations for each
analysis period. At each location, the 85th percentile speed, or the speed at which 85% of vehicles are traveling at or
below, was calculated. This metric is commonly used in traffic engineering to set speed limits. The results were
categorized based on the associated roadway’s classification in the Living Streets Plan (Local, Local Connector,
Collector, and Minor Arterial). For this analysis, “before implementation” refers to 2018-2020, while “after
implementation’ refers to 2022-2024. 2021 was omitted from this analysis as speed limits varied across the City while
signage was being replaced or installed.
Speed Analysis
85th percentile speeds increased on Local streets by 9.3% (25.8 mph before to 28.2 mph after).
85th percentile speeds remained steady on Local Connector streets (28.7 mph before to 28.3 mph after).
85th percentile speeds increased on Collector streets by 4.4% (34.2 mph to 35.7 mph after).
85th percentile speeds increased on Minor Arterial streets by 7.1% (38.2 mph before to 40.9 mph after).
Crash Analysis
Frequency:
o The average annual number of crashes on county, Municipal State Aid (MSA) and local roads remained
largely unchanged after implementation. Average annual crashes were approximately 215 per year
before implementation and 219 per year after implementation.
o Significant reductions in crashes were observed in 2020 and 2021 (20–66% across all roadway
jurisdictions) and are attributed to reduced travel demand during the COVID-19 pandemic.
o By 2022, annual crash rates returned to pre-pandemic levels on local and county roads.
Distribution:
o The distribution of crashes by roadway jurisdiction remained consistent before and after implementation
(approximately 20% local, 36% MSA, and 44% county).
Severity:
o No fatal crashes were reported during the entire analysis period (2018-2024).
o On county roads, the proportion of serious injury crashes remained unchanged (1.8% of total crashes).
Page 340 of 494
o On MSA and local roads, serious injury crashes more than doubled as a percentage of total crashes but
remained below 3%.
o Minor or possible injury crashes declined on county roads and remained generally comparable on MSA
and local roads.
o Property damage crashes increased on county and local roads and remained stable on MSA roads.
Mode:
o Pedestrian and bicycle crashes on county roads remained stable at approximately 3.2% of total crashes.
o Pedestrian and bicycle crashes on MSA roads increased from approximately 2.3% to 6.6% of total
crashes.
o Pedestrian and bicycle crashes on local roads increased from approximately 2.6% to 5.8% of total
crashes.
Community Feedback
Between 2015 and 2025, the City’s biennial Quality of Life survey asked residents to assess traffic concerns in their
neighborhoods. In 2019 (before implementation), 41% of respondents identified it as a moderate-to-extreme problem.
This number dropped to 34% in 2021, then rose to 38% in 2023 and 41% in 2025.
Literature Review
Impact of Speed Limit Change on Urban Streets (Local Road Research Board, 2023)
Researchers surveyed 33 cities within the Twin Cities metro area and identified the City of St. Louis Park as planning to
implement a citywide change in speed limits. Speed data was collected in the summer of 2021(2-4 months before
implementation) and in the summer of 2022 (6-8 months after implementation).
There was considerable variability, with before/after differences in mean speed ranging from a decrease of 7 mph to an
increase of 2.4 mph. On average, mean speeds were slightly lower (1-2 mph) in the after period, both on streets where
the speed limit was lowered and on streets where the limit was unchanged. Overall, researchers found that changes in
posted speed limits did not lead to speed decreases. Noting that driving is a habitual behavior, researchers suggested a
driver’s adaptation to a lower speed limit may happen over a longer time frame in the absence of physical roadway
changes or strict speed enforcement.
City Speed Limit Report (Minnesota Department of Transportation, 2024)
This report was intended to determine the impact of the 2019 state legislation that allowed cities to change local speed
limits without MnDOT approval. The study included a before-and-after evaluation of speed and crash data in 10
Minnesota cities (including Minneapolis and St Louis Park). Most measured speeds increased from 2019 to 2023, while
fatal and serious injury crash rates remained relatively constant over that same period. Total crashes on local roadways
decreased from 287 in 2019 to 154 in 2023 (a 46% reduction). However, the study notes that the state legislature, in
2021, eliminated the requirement to report vehicle crashes if there were no injuries or if estimated propety damange did
not exceed $1,000. This change may account for the significant decrease in total crashes.
Page 341 of 494
Evaluation of Driver Speeds After Implementation of Speed Limit Reductions on Urban Streets (Local Road Research
Board, 2025)
This study follows up on the 2023 study conducted in St. Louis Park to evaluate the long-term impact of speed limit
reductions. Researchers will survey which Minnesota cities have lowered speed limits, collect and analyze additional data,
and identify best practices for other agencies. This study is ongoing; staff will review the results once published.
Conclusions
Vehicle speeds tended to increase after implementation across all roadway classifications. Because speeds on
Minor Arterial streets increased despite no change to their speed limits, this suggests an external factor
contributing to rising speeds.
Speed limit reduction did not result in a measurable change in overall crash frequency on local roads.
Crashes involving vulnerable road users increased on MSA and local roads.
A simple before-and-after analysis does not account for potential compounding factors such as the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic.
Public perception of speeding on local streets has not changed from pre-pandemic conditions.
Recommendations
Reducing speed limits is one part of a comprehensive strategy to address speeding. Long-term success will only be
achieved by implementing multiple strategies. Based on the results of this evaluation, staff recommends the following
next steps:
Existing actions to continue:
o Implement street width reductions per the Living Streets Plan as part of scheduled roadway
reconstruction projects
o Allocate $20,000 per year from PACS Fund for traffic safety improvements
o Drive 25 advertising and marketing campaign
o Utilize dynamic display speed signs to supplement existing enforcement efforts
o Monitor traffic and crash data for the next three years to evaluate long-term trends
Additional actions for consideration:
o Prioritize safety improvements identified by the Safe and Equitable Mobility Action Plan after adoption
o Implement street width reductions per the Living Streets Plan as part of scheduled roadway maintenance
projects
o Increase PACS Funding for multi-modal transportation infrastructure and safety improvements
o Purchase a second temporary dynamic speed display sign to supplement existing enforcement efforts

Item Report
February 4, 2026
City Council
Item Number: 9.4 Department: Administration
Item Activity: Action Prepared By: Scott Neal, City Manager
Item Title: Ordinance 2025-17: Amending Chapter 22 - Miscellaneous Offenses to add Article XI. -
Firearms
Action Requested:
Approve second reading to adopt ordinance 2025-17 amending chapter 22 - Miscellaneous Offenses
to add Article XI. Firearms and approve summary publication.
Information/Background:
The Edina City Council is considering a proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage Ordinance that
would amend Chapter 22 of the City Code to create a new article regulating certain firearms and
firearm components within the City. The proposed ordinance includes prohibitions related to assault
weapons, large-capacity magazines, binary triggers, and ghost guns, as well as requirements
intended to prevent negligent firearm storage.
City Council held a special town hall meeting on January 6, 2026. Individuals were allowed to provide
their feedback on the proposed ordinance and no action was taken at the town hall meeting. Online
feedback was open until Sunday, January 11, 2026. Eighty-nine online submissions were received and
have been included in the board portal for council review.
Resources/Financial Impacts:
If the City Council chooses to move forward with adoption or implementation of the ordinance, staff
would need to conduct a more comprehensive analysis of potential financial impacts. This could
include enforcement considerations, staff capacity, legal review, communication needs, and any
ongoing administrative or operational costs associated with implementation.
Relationship to City Policies/Plans/Budget Pillars:
The proposed ordinance relates to the City’s broader commitment to public safety, community well-
being, and reliable service. It aligns with Council’s role in considering regulatory tools intended to
protect residents and respond to emerging community concerns. Input gathered through this process
will help inform whether and how the ordinance aligns with City priorities, legal authority, and
community expectations before any further Council action is taken.
Reliable Service Better Together
Page 355 of 494
Values Impact:
Engagement
The proposed ordinance may generate heightened community interest
and dialogue around public safety and individual responsibility. By
creating structured opportunities for participation, the City aims to
support respectful engagement and provide space for residents with
differing perspectives to be heard.
Equity
Gun violence disproportionately impacts economically disadvantaged
communities and communities of color. School shootings are
continuing to increase, adding to gun violence as a leading cause of
death among children.
Health
The proposed ordinance is being considered in the context of public
health and safety, with a focus on reducing the risk of injury or harm
related to firearms.

Ordinance 2025-17: Amending Chapter 22 - Miscellaneous
Offenses to add Article XI. - Firearms
The City of Edina Ordains:
Section I. Chapter 22 - MISCELLANEOUS OFFENSES of the Edina City Code is amended to add the
following new Article XI. - FIREARMS:
ARTICLE XI. - FIREARMS
Sec. 22-314. - Purpose.
The City Council finds that there is a public safety and welfare crisis resulting from gun violence in the
City. The City finds that semi-automatic military-style assault weapons, ghost guns, large-capacity
magazines, and binary triggers have not commonly been used for self-defense purposes, yet these
firearms and firearm modifications inherently have a significantly higher capacity for causing
damage, injury, and death compared to ordinary firearms used for lawful self-defense purposes. The
City finds it necessary for the public safety and welfare to regulate such firearms and firearm
modifications to mitigate the damage, injury, and death posed by use of such weapons for non-lawful
purposes.
Sec. 22-315. - Definitions.
The following words, terms and phrases, when used in this Article, shall have the meanings ascribed to
them in this section, except where the context clearly indicates a different meaning:
Assault weapon means a semiautomatic military-style assault weapon, as defined in Minnesota
Statutes, Section 624.712, subd. 7 and as listed by the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension in accordance
with Minnesota Statutes, Section 624.712, subd. 8, as may amended from time to time.
Binary trigger means a device, mechanism, component, or part designed, marketed, created, or
assembled as part of a firearm to discharge one round of ammunition when the trigger is pulled and
an additional round of ammunition when the trigger is released.
Firearm means a firearm, as defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 97A.015, subd. 19, as may be
amended from time to time, but not including firearms collected as part of the licensed curation of
relic firearms/curios per 27 C.F.R. 478.
Firearm component means any component or part that is designed, manufactured, created, printed,
or assembled to form part of a firearm.
Ghost gun means any firearm or firearm component not marked with a serial number required under
federal, state, or local law, whether manufactured, assembled, or constructed in whole or in part by
any person. Ghost gun does not include any firearms manufactured prior to 1968, antique firearms as
defined in Title 18, Section 921(a)(16) of the United States Code, or firearms incapable of discharging a
Page 357 of 494
shot by means of an explosive or otherwise incapable of being restored to a firing condition.
Large capacity magazine means any ammunition feeding device, whether accessory to a firearm or a
firearm component, that has a capacity of more than twenty (20) rounds or is designed, marketed,
created, or assembled to have a capacity of more than twenty (20) rounds. A large capacity
magazine does not include a tubular magazine that is contained in a lever-action firearm or a .22
caliber fixed tubular magazine.
Locking device means a firearm component, firearm accessory, or external device or mechanism that
renders a firearm inaccessible, inoperable, or both. A locking device includes but is not limited to
biometric locks, trigger locks, barrel locks, cylinder locks, gun vaults, locked cabinets, locked boxes, or
any other locked container where a key is kept separate from the container and not readily available
to an unauthorized person.

d. Negligent storage. No person shall negligently store or leave a loaded or unloaded firearm
unattended in a location where the person knows or reasonably should know that an
unauthorized person is likely to gain access to the firearm. It shall not constitute negligent
storage for a person to take reasonable steps to secure a firearm against unauthorized access
with a locking device.
Sec. 22-317. - Exceptions.
The prohibitions in section 22-316 do not apply in the following circumstances:
a. Active or reserve federal, state, county, or municipal law enforcement officers, including

this Article is not preempted by state law.
Sec. 22-320. - Severability.
If any portion of this Article is held invalid, unconstitutional, or unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction, that portion shall be severed and the remaining portions of this Article remain in full force
and effect.
Section 2. This ordinance shall be effective upon passage and publication, and passage of a resolution
by the City Council certifying that this ordinance is not preempted by state law.
First Reading: January 20, 2026
Second Reading: February 3, 2026
Summary for Publication:
Ordinance 2025-17 adds firearm regulations to Chapter 22 of the City Code to address public safety
concerns. The ordinance prohibits the possession, manufacture, and sale of certain firearms and
firearm accessories, including assault weapons, ghost guns, large-capacity magazines, and binary

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
I support the city's effort to reduce gun violence. The second amendment to the constitution allows for a well-regulated
militia. Local and state government should have every right to control guns under the US Constitution. In the 18th century
without fast modes of transportation and instant communication to call on the military or additional police; a community had
to rely on its citizens to have arms to defend the settlement against an insurrection, attack by natives, slave revolts or
incursions by colonial or foreign powers. None of that is relevant in the 21st century as communication is instant and police,
sheriffs, state patrol and national guard can come to the defense of a community quickly. Outside of firearms designed for
hunting, there is no need for firearms by the general public. Firearms are more like to kill or injury a person because of
suicide or an accident then to stop a burglar or someone intending harm. When I was a kid my best friend's dad who was a
seasoned police officer accidentally shot his self in the leg transferring a gun from his car. Guns are very dangerous. My
father stored his hunting rifles in a secret space that was locked and hidden. Gun owners should store their guns in safe
places that are locked and in accessible to children, those in heated arguments, those who are suicidal and thieves. For the
record, I belonged to my high school rifle club and used the shooting range in the subbasement of the school. Teaching how
to safely, treat and use a hunting rifle may be a plus. While I question wither the city has the authority to pass this ordinance
per state law, as a matter of principle Edina should pass the ordinance as an example to get the state legislature and
Congress to do their jobs.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage

I support passage of the resolution because the State or Feds likely will continue to do nothing without concrete evidence
that their constituents want them to act. A patchwork of city ordinances can start to provide that evidence and create
momentum for more meaningful collective action.

It is entirely irresponsible for the city to use taxpayer funding litigating an ordinance that conflicts with state law. Also, my BB
gun has over 20 rounds capacity are you going to seize this also? There are so many holes in this draft that the lawyers will
have a field day charging our citizens for unwanted litigation expenses.

I 100% agree with the ordinance on gun violence prevention. I know it won’t be enacted unless MN changes it law, but it
think it’s imperative that we have language around common sense regulation of assault weapons and high capacity guns in
our city. If enough cities approve these ordinances maybe then we can change state law.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
This is a vast overreach of the city's authority. I do not own any guns currently, but you should not erode my rights as a
citizen of Minnesota and the United States. You have many more serious issues to spend your time and the city staff's time
on than this. Like reducing the cost of city taxes on citizens to approximate the cost of inflation instead of double digit hikes.
You also need to get estimates of project costs to be accurate and hold those responsible for inaccurate estimates to
demotions or firing. Make sure that projects are completed on time--The construction at 50th and 100 was to be completed in
November. That fact that it won't be completed for 4-5 more months continues to frustrate and inconvenience your citizens.
You need to make sure the city runs efficiently, effectively and in a cost efficient manner. That is the priority, not gun control
or other projects that are beyond your authority.

I fully support this measure (Firearem Safety and Safe Storage Ordinance). Assault weapons should remain with military

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
I’m all for reasonable gun control and safe storage ordinances. What happened at Annunciation should never have
happened and should never happen again at any location in the US. Unfortunately, as a nation, we have proven time and
again that we care more about the assumed gun rights than we do about human lives. As such, while I agree with
everything in the ordinance, I don’t know if I agree that this is the best use of time and resources of the city attorney and the
council. The better use of time may be to petition state and federal lawmakers for change. Perhaps educating local gun
owners about firearm safety and storage would be a better use of time. Doing the above may result in change now - some of
it in our local area. The ordinance, on the other hand, maybe might be useful at some unknown point in the future - if other
major changes happen first. Based on historical performance - the other major changes are, unfortunately, not happening.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
This memo provides an analysis of Ordinance 2025 17, which proposes new restrictions on the possession, manufacture,
sale, and storage of certain firearms and firearm components within the City of Edina. The goal is to highlight key legal,
operational, and policy considerations that may not be fully addressed in the ordinance’s summary or staff report.
________________________________________ 1. State Preemption and Legal Authority A. Minnesota’s Uniform
Firearms Framework Minnesota maintains statewide firearms regulations to ensure consistency across jurisdictions. Courts
have repeatedly emphasized the importance of avoiding a patchwork of local rules that create confusion for residents,
visitors, and law enforcement. B. Ordinance Acknowledges Preemption Risk The ordinance explicitly states it cannot take
effect until the Council certifies that it is “not preempted by state law.” This is an unusual provision that signals significant
legal uncertainty. C. Litigation Exposure If enacted, the ordinance is likely to face immediate legal challenge. Litigation would
require substantial staff time and financial resources, with uncertain outcomes. Several municipalities nationwide have
incurred significant costs defending similar ordinances. ________________________________________ 2. Overbreadth of
Definitions and Scope A. Broad Definitions Capture Common Items The ordinance’s definitions of “assault weapon,” “ghost
gun,” “firearm component,” and “large capacity magazine” extend beyond weapons typically associated with criminal
misuse. • The 20 round magazine threshold is stricter than many state and federal proposals. • “Firearm component” could
include parts used by hobbyists, competitive shooters, and gunsmiths. B. Impact on Lawful Owners The ordinance prohibits
possession even inside private homes, regardless of intent or behavior. This raises concerns about overreach into personal
property and lawful recreational activities. ________________________________________ 3. Criminalizing Possession
Rather Than Misuse A. Focus on Ownership, Not Conduct The ordinance criminalizes possession of certain items without
regard to criminal history, intent, or misuse. • Individuals who have never committed a crime could face misdemeanor
charges solely for owning items legal under state and federal law. • Individuals intending to commit crimes are unlikely to
comply with the ordinance. B. Potential for Disproportionate Impact Enforcement may fall unevenly across neighborhoods or
demographic groups, raising equity concerns. ________________________________________ 4. Second Amendment
Considerations A. Supreme Court Guidance The U.S. Supreme Court has held that the Second Amendment protects
firearms “in common use” for lawful purposes, including self-defense in the home. B. Items Covered by the Ordinance Many
of the items prohibited—such as standard capacity magazines and commonly owned semiautomatic firearms—are widely
possessed nationwide for lawful activities. C. Likelihood of Constitutional Challenge A municipal ban on possession inside
the home raises substantial constitutional questions. Similar ordinances in other jurisdictions have resulted in lengthy and
expensive litigation, often with mixed or unfavorable outcomes for cities. ________________________________________
5. Enforcement and Operational Challenges A. Enforcement Inside Private Homes Regulating possession within private
residences raises privacy concerns and may require complaint driven investigations or search warrants. B. Resource
Allocation Enforcement would divert police resources from violent crime, property crime, and community policing initiatives.
C. Practical Limitations The ordinance may be difficult to enforce consistently, potentially undermining public confidence in
the City’s regulatory approach. ________________________________________ 6. Economic and Community Impacts A.
Impact on Local Businesses Retailers, gunsmiths, and sporting goods stores may lose business to neighboring cities. •
Residents will likely purchase items elsewhere, shifting economic activity out of Edina without reducing ownership. B. Impact
on Hobbyists and Competitive Shooters The ordinance prohibits manufacturing, assembling, or constructing certain firearms
or components—even for personal use—affecting: • Competitive shooters • Collectors • Gunsmiths • Hobbyists
________________________________________ 7. Negligent Storage Provision A. Subjective Standard The “reasonably
should know” standard is vague and may be inconsistently applied. B. Risk of Criminalizing Responsible Owners Residents
may face penalties even when no harm occurs and even when they believe they have taken reasonable precautions. C.
Alternative Approaches Voluntary safe storage education programs and partnerships with community organizations may
achieve better outcomes without criminal penalties. ________________________________________ 8. Redundancy With
Existing State and Federal Laws A. Existing Regulatory Framework Federal and state laws already regulate: • Serial
numbers • Transfers and background checks • Prohibited persons • Certain firearm types B. Limited Added Value
Duplicating these laws at the city level may not meaningfully reduce crime or address root causes such as illegal trafficking,
Page 371 of 494
mental health crises, or socioeconomic factors. ________________________________________ 9. Community Cohesion
and Public Trust A. Risk of Polarization Firearms policy is deeply personal for many residents. Sweeping bans without broad
consensus may divide the community. B. Alternative Strategies Residents may support approaches that focus on: •
Education • Safe storage outreach • Mental health support • Community based violence prevention programs These
strategies may offer more effective and unifying solutions. ________________________________________ Conclusion
Ordinance 2025 17 raises significant legal, operational, constitutional, and community impact concerns. While public safety
is a shared priority, the ordinance’s broad scope, uncertain legal footing, and enforcement challenges suggest that
alternative approaches may better serve Edina’s residents. A more targeted, evidence-based strategy—focused on
education, safe storage initiatives, and community-based prevention—may achieve greater public safety benefits without
exposing the City to legal risk or community division.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage

Thank you City Council for considering putting in writing the first steps toward establishing reasonable and better gun control
within the state of MN and our municipality. I certainly would like to see better laws regarding gun safety and registration.
Outlawing military grade weapons and extended magazines, as well as unregistered guns, within the boundaries of the
municipality is reasonable and I don't believe unduly harsh or unreasonable for anyone who is a sport hunter or gun
enthusiast. I disagree with section 22-317d which allow an individual within city limits to use an automatic weapon for self
defense. That essentially negates any restriction on the possession of automatic weapons within city limits. An individual
could certainly "store" an automatic weapon for a friend who lives outside the boundaries of Edina. When would a resident
need an automatic weapon for self defense? I don't see Edina being an epicenter of revolt or tyranny. Armageddon is
unlikely to happen in the foreseeable future.

Testimony of Pastor Jeff Sartain Edina City Council – Community Feedback on Gun Safety and Safe Storage Ordinance
Madam Mayor and Members of the City Council, Thank you for the opportunity to speak tonight. My name is Jeff Sartain,
and I am a pastor serving here in Edina. I am here as a faith leader, but more importantly, as a neighbor and as someone
who walks closely with families carrying real and ongoing trauma. This past fall, I witnessed the horror of the shooting at
Annunciation Church and School in Minneapolis. Three children from my congregation were inside the sanctuary at the time.
The pain did not end when the headlines moved on. The fear, grief, and disruption to a sense of safety remain with these
families every day. It matters deeply that our community makes clear to them—and to all families—that this pain is seen,
honored, and taken seriously. These are not “someone else’s children.” They are our children. And when one member of the
community suffers, the whole community is diminished. I want to be clear about something else as well. I grew up in
northern Minnesota, in a home with guns. Nearly every household around us did. But what we also had—universally—was
gun safety training, secure storage, and a deeply ingrained respect for the power and purpose of a firearm. That culture
emphasized responsibility, not casual access. It emphasized care for one another. We no longer live in that same context.
Firearms today are more lethal, more accessible, and more likely to be stored or modified in ways that increase risk—
especially to children and others who should never encounter them. Our shared responsibility has to rise to meet that reality.
The draft ordinance before you does not criminalize responsible ownership. It does not target lawful self-defense. What it
does is take seriously the proven dangers of unsecured firearms, high-capacity weapons, and modifications that dramatically
increase harm. It names negligent storage for what it is: a public safety risk. And it affirms that community safety and
individual rights are not opposites—they depend on one another. As a pastor, I spend my days with people in moments of
deep vulnerability. I can tell you with absolute certainty: the consequences of gun violence ripple far beyond the moment of
impact. They reshape childhoods. They fracture trust. They leave lasting wounds in bodies, families, and communities.
Adopting strong, thoughtful gun safety and safe storage policies is not about fear. It is about care. It is about love of
neighbor. It is about choosing to prevent harm when prevention is within our reach. I urge the City Council to move forward
with this ordinance and to do so with moral clarity and courage. Our children—and all who call Edina home—deserve
nothing less. Thank you for your time and for your commitment to the safety and wellbeing of our community.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
Ignoring the issues of pre-emption, this ordinance would create criminals out of current law-abiding, tax-paying, and
contributing members of the Edina community. This is a poor use of time, and possible future enforcement effort, as well as
being blatantly unconstitutional at the state and federal level. There will be no measurable safety benefits. Minnesota
ALREADY has some of the most severe and arcane firearms purchase laws in the nation, requiring possession of a permit
to carry and/or permit to purchase to simply buy a pistol or "assault weapon" (as defined by the state). The permit requires a
background check and a course (an investment in time and money). On top of that, purchasing these requires a background
check at time of purchase. A prohibited person purchasing firearms is already a felony. Breaking the law (at the state and
federal level) is already illegal. There is no foreseeable reasonable enforcement of this law other than to add-on to existing
criminal prosecution after-the-fact, or to target those who the current Edina city council and enforcement apparatus would
like to target, harass, or intimidate. Application of these laws would only be in the aftermath of other criminal activity, and as
a result will have zero effect on reducing crime. Criminals, by their nature, are not concerned with breaking law. Do we have
statistics on how many violent crimes are committed in Edina, by city residents who could potentially fall under the
jurisdiction of these regulations? The author of this ordinance surely can provide the data that was used to inform these
decisions, and the terms and their definitions. Ignoring the issue of pre-emption and choosing to restrict the city's residents'
inalienable rights under the 2nd amendment is just as egregious as choosing a more restrictive standard on the 1st
amendment inside the city, or placing restrictions on who is enfranchised to vote in a way more restrictive than the state or
federal government defines. This idea is misguided security theater, and the idea that the city is taking the time to entertain
this on-face unconstitutional document, is disturbing.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
Hi, I am Michelle Eul from 4005 Lynn Ave. I am an engineer, a mother, and a voter in every election. I have a daughter in 1st
grade, a son in pre-school, and a 2-year-old son. My kids asked about the blue and green ribbons on trees around the
community. How would you explain a school shooting to a 5-year-old? Should I tell my kids they are safe at school? What
about at sporting events or parks? My son did his first lock-down drill when he was three. Three. Is that okay? And we are
the lucky ones. What would you do if you got the call that your school had an active shooter? What would happen if your
child never came to the “re-union zone”? I am in tears just thinking of this. And I know there is a better way. We lived in
Europe for 4 years. There was almost no gun violence. I lost sleep for months wondering if it was a responsible parenting
decision to move back to the US. What is more important - protecting my kids from gun violence or seeing grandparents? I
still don’t know if I made the right choice. With that in mind, I fully support the proposed Firearm Safety and Storage
Ordinance. Please pass this ordinance, and then advocate for additional measures like the lifting of the State’s “pre-emption”
law and asking State and National leaders to implement a public health approach to gun safety. This approach would treat
gun deaths as a preventable health problem, and it was recommended by an academic paper that I read. Thank you for
proposing this ordinance and reviewing public comments.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage

I am a mother and a registered gun owner. I understand people are worried for children's safety, but these restrictions have
proved over and over again in other cities (Chicago for example)that it doesnt matter what ordinance or laws are passed. If
people want to get ahold of these things to do harm, they find ways to get ahold of them. Laws dont deter criminals, it is a
way to continue to put a noose around law abiding citizens. Using our dollars in an overly swelled taxed out city, blown
budgets, and resisting any input from residents, to use on any law suits that will come from this, or to push this idea is
beyond comprehension. This needs to come federally if that is the case, using your own money on your own agenda to
properly pass this to residents. This is not a city issue and using our money to carry forward when it has been advised by
counsel to not touch the subject is reckless use of resources! It should be treated as such, and all of you who are pushing
this matter should be removed from office. It is not your money to play with, you represent US, the residents of this city you
are trying to tax out to provide a "safe haven for everyone". This is your agenda, so use your own money to try and push this.
We dont need any more city intervention with this issue. If you want this passed, push it through the appropriate channels.
We will consider a lawsuit with the city of Edina if this is carried out. We are tired of being over taxed, over TIFed and over
populated. Edina used to be a sought after city, you have created a suburb of Minneapolis that is crammed full, and pushing
the long standing residents out with such. Please stop with this nonsense. Hear out residents, but also heed the legal advice
of your counsel to not continue with this ordinance.

Bloomington would not approve it - except if it would be built on the small strip of land that belong to them even though it is

I write in favor of Draft Ordinance No. 2025-17. There is no reasonable civilian purpose whatsoever for owning any of the
weapons or accessories named in this draft ordinance. These are weapons of war and have no business in the hands of
civilians. The notion that semi-automatic weapons, high-capacity magazines or the like are necessary for "self-defense" is
nonsensical. In fact, the opposite it true; people who own or carry guns are far more likely to be the victim of gun violence
(see: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0047272723000567). America is unique among developed
nations in our obscene instance of school shootings and in gun deaths more broadly. The reason is the prevalence of and
easy access to guns, period. We cannot ban guns outright, but we should - and must - take reasonable measures to restrict
access to weapons designed solely for killing human beings. Draft Ordinance No. 2025-17 is a sensible step in this
direction. The Edina City Council should pass it. Yours sincerely, Tony Graham Edina, MN

It has become a terrible reality that whenever I take my kids to events, in Edina or surrounding communities, I am constantly
scanning the environment, thinking where we would we run if someone started shooting, how I could I protect me kids,
where could we hide in the event of an active shooter? This is not normal, and this is not a world that children should live in.
But it it isn’t a foregone conclusion, we don’t have to live in fear of mass shooting events if citizens and our civic leaders take
action, prioritize safety over profit or lobbying, and have the courage and common sense to pass this ordinance. This isn’t
disease or natural disaster, mass casualty fun events CAN be stopped if citizens and leaders stand up and say, no more.
Assault weapons and high capacity magazines have no place in our city and in our neighborhoods. Please show courage

The second amendment of the Constitution reads: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State,

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
I am an Edina resident and EPS parent and am writing to urge the council to vote to approve the ordinance to regulate
certain types of firearms and firearm components. Assault style firearms are the preferred weapon of mass shooters and
have the capacity to kill and maim far more people in a short amount of time than lower capacity, lower velocity firearms.
While a federal and state level ban would be more effective, we as a city should lead the way by implementing a ban,
should preemption be lifted, as a step towards creating a safer community and as an example for other communities to
follow. I support responsible gun ownership, but there is no constitutional right to assault weapons and no need for them in
society. Research shows that if congress had upheld the federal ban between 2005 and 2019, they could have prevented
more than 30 mass shootings. This is a broadly supported measure in our community. As an EPS parent, I have had
countless conversations with other parents about our fears for our children and the need for an assault weapons ban to help
mitigate risks. Expanding and clarifying safe storage requirements will save lives from multiple sources of gun violence:
unintentional shootings, crime-related gun violence (facilitated by stolen guns), suicide, school and other mass shootings. It
will send a clear message to irresponsible gun owners: lock up your firearms when they are not in your immediate control or
be held accountable. Every day, eight children are unintentionally shot or killed by a gun. Securely stored firearms—whether
loaded or not—would prevent most of these tragedies. It is simple; safe storage laws work and save lives, and they do not
infringe on the rights of individuals to own a firearm. Studies have repeatedly shown that safe storage results in a reduction
in the rates of self-inflicted and unintentional firearm injuries among children and teenagers by up to 85%. Kids are curious
and are developmentally prone to be risk-takers. As adults, we should be responsible for preventing unsupervised access to
deadly weapons. Lax storage of firearms contributes to many forms of gun violence. More than 80% of child firearm suicides
use a gun belonging to a family member. In 75% of cases, guns used in school shootings came from the shooter’s home or
that of a relative. Edina has led the way in so many other initiatives and as a community that values children and safety, it is
imperative that this council approve the ordinance and encourage the state legislature to lift preemption, allowing it to pass.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage

I believe this is a sensible approach to try to attempt to reduce the kinds of guns that are not designed for hunting or self
protection. I think it’s important for the City to be proactive in passing an ordinance in case the state should lift its statute.
Access to these destructive weapons have been too easy and accessible particularly to individuals who are experiencing
mental health issues. There is no reason for any person, unless working with a law enforcement or military agency to be
possession of these weapons. This ordinance does not deny a person access to all guns, just the ones that are typically
associated with warfare. I’m in full support of a ban on all ghost weapons and those produced on 3 D printers. The sheer
number of guns available to Americans is staggering and my hope is that an ordinance like this and others are passed
throughout the nation in hopes of reducing the numbers and access to weapons that were never designed for use by
nonmilitary individuals. Finally safe storage and gun locks should be the norm and is just common sense. Reducing the
number of tragic accidents in homes by children who have found an unlocked weapon is absolutely preventable. Those who
cannot abide by this common sense law should be held accountable.

While we all are supportive of a safe Edina, this ordinance does nothing address the true issue which is mental health. It’s
blaming an object and not getting to the root cause. It will not keep guns out of the hands of criminals or prevent criminals
from coming into Edina to commit a crime. However it will automatically make responsible law abiding Edina residents who
are gun owners criminals for following federal and state law. To that end, what’s not being addressed is how this ordinance,
if adopted, would be enforced as it has the potential to violate other civil rights and open the city to further legal action. This
will ultimately be a costly ordinance that has no material impact on crime opening the city to a mountain of litigation. The cost
of which should not be passed on to the tax payer. While this is an emotional issue the council should align to federal / state
law and focus their efforts and resources in areas of mental health and education that can make a more substantial impact. I
respectfully request the this ordinance not be adopted

I want the City of Edina to enforce an ordinace for semi-automatic military-style assault weapons, ghost guns, large-capacity

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
Can you guarantee me that criminals will not bring the proposed banned firearms into EDINA? Because when my storage
locker was cut into and tens of thousands worth of my property was stolen by insider employee the city was not there to
protect me. When my current home that has a fake mortgage on it, so some MN DHS licensed adult daycare provider can
use it for Medicaid fraud ...the city and Keith Ellison were not there to protect me or my home. so now you want to limit my
guns. Why should i trust you? I can't. Mary Moriarty repeatedly let repeat felons back on the street to commit gun crimes
many of which were prohibited from owning a gun...yet we had repeat shootings from the same felons. Felons that used
"Glock switches" either 3d printed or from China that convert their guns into machine guns....... all the automatic fire in
Hennepin county has been almost exclusively committed by repeat felons using converted machine guns. Mary just let them
back on the street. Do you think they care about Edina gun laws? "oh, sorry I'm a 3x felon with a converted machined gun i
made with a 3d printed Glock switch but i can't take that into Edina because they don't allow it?" c'mon get real ...the
situation & gun crime only improved when the US atty Luger got involved and charged the repeat felons with Federal
charges and took them off the streets. The fact of the matter is that criminals don't care about gun laws & this proposal will
only take guns away from guys like me. I have never had a speeding ticket let alone a felony but yes i own an ar15 locked in
my safe for a rainy day that i hope will never come. But if that day comes at least i know i have a chance to protect my family
with the same type of weapon that the felon criminals are sure to have.... there are 400m guns in the USA. High-capacity
magazines can be printed on 3d printers as can "Glock switches". Respectfully this is a federal issue. Criminals will always
have guns & you can't trust Mary Moriarty to take them off the streets. So, what is the solution? Better screening? what were
the issues of the obviously deranged annunciation shooter? mental health? drugs or medication? I'm not sure what the issue
is but I would like to think there was a way to better identify this person before having access to firearms.... if anything we
need better screening. Crazy's will always find a way to attack the vulnerable...what if he had thrown Molotov cocktails
through the glass? casualties would have been much higher? so are we going to ban gasoline in Edina now too then? A
4min response time is less than ideal due to low mpls police numbers. I would like to think 2 min is more of Edina response
time but that's an eternity if you don't have the ability to defend yourself. I was at Nordstroms on Xmas eve a few years back
when a murder occurred we ended up running into Nespresso and locked in for an hour feeling helpless. But wait that's a
NO GUN ZONE but yet some clown who's been in trouble with the law many times brought a gun in and killed someone
yards from me. Edina gun laws won't change anything you need to take the criminals off the street & jail them. Period end of
story. This is a federal Issue and the fact that we are spending time talking about this at the local level is a little silly & just an
affirmation to push a progressive political agenda in my opinion. Are you going to grandfather in existing collections?
compensate owners many of whom have collections worth six figures? set aside my precious local tax dollars to defend the
numerous legal challenges that will certainly be filed? This is silly. Finally, i would encourage you to watch the 9min Bondi
beach video of the shooters taking pot shots in Zero-gun tolerance Australia. 9min of horror because people, bystanders &
local homeowners didn't have the ability to defend themselves and fight back unlike the USA where a "good guy" with a gun
could offer some defense...how could this happen guns are banned in Australia yet here we go again. get real Helpless
Edina now becomes a target for the criminals. if you take guns away. Just take a look at home invasions % in the GUN
banned UK vs USA. Pretty easy to break into an elderly persons home and steal what you want when you don't fear a
response. It doesn't happen nearly as much in the USA for just that reason and now you want to take my ability to defend
myself away to push a progressive agenda. Respectfully, I don't think so. Never had even a speeding ticket but I guess I be
a first time felon then & alive. Congratulations. 58yrs old get up grind every day to pay my property taxes that go up
perennially 8% every year, pay my $1200 car tabs per car thanks to a state the has ineptly squandered a surplus much
through mismanagement of spending & Fraud. Don't you think EDINA has a lot more pressing local issues like insane
property taxes forcing retires on fixed income out of their homes. Endless construction on France Ave, and apparently a
bridge to no where on 50th & Vernon? schools? I can't support and will vote against any council member or mayor who
supports this agenda. Thanks for your time 24yr resident pamela park

The August mass shooting at Annunciation Church was caused by a person with MENTAL ILLNESS, not due to a ghost
gun, binary trigger, or a large capacity magazine. If a deranged person is intent on killing people, they will find a way. A gun
ordinance will not stop a deranged person.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
Dear Mayor Hovland and Members of the City Council, We are writing in strong support of Draft Ordinance No. 2025-17 and
to thank you for bringing it forward for consideration. Like many people, we have been deeply affected by the August
shooting at Annunciation School, where two children were killed and dozens more — most of them students — were injured.
We must do more to prevent these tragedies, and this ordinance is a meaningful step. We find this ordinance to be
thoughtful, targeted, and grounded in public safety. It focuses on assault weapons, ghost guns, large-capacity magazines,
and binary triggers — items that are not commonly used for lawful self-defense, yet dramatically increase the capacity for
mass injury and death. By addressing possession, manufacture, sale, and negligent storage, the ordinance prioritizes
prevention while respecting lawful use and clearly defined exceptions. At a time when many people feel that nothing ever
changes after mass shootings, this ordinance represents a concrete, measured step toward reducing risk in our community.
Even if it cannot prevent every act of violence, it signals that Edina is willing to use the tools available to it to prioritize public
safety — especially for children. Thank you for your leadership and for taking this issue seriously. We strongly urge you to
adopt Draft Ordinance No. 2025-17. Sincerely, Kathy Christensen and Mark Burke

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
I oppose this ordinance. Existing gun laws address criminal use of guns. This ordinance is simply a superfluous attempt to
take legal firearms, possessed legally, from people who've only used them legally. The City admits it has no effect. Stop
wasting time. My more serious point is, the city cannot protect its residents, as we all have seen since 2020. We all know
that if there's civil unrest, we're on our own. The City does not have the resources, and in the current state leadership will not
mobilize necessary resources in time. We also know that current City, County and State leadership sympathizes with large-
scale left-wing rioters and will use inflammatory rhetoric to escalate riots and violence against law enforcement. We all see
that again today with the ICE officer-involved shooting. In that context, depriving citizens of the simple, relatively inexpensive
means of self-defense just looks like you support mob rule and rioters. You're banning the exact firearms our veterans are
familiar with from military service, the same firearms our police and law enforcement use to protect themselves, their
colleagues, and the public. My neighborhood was, like many others, full of violent tags in 2020. Target, Whole Foods and
many other Edina business installed boards, bollards, plywood and other defensive measures against mass destruction. I
don't like that I'll have to board my house if a mob decides it wants to riot. I can't stop a mob without a firearm. I am
defenseless, so are you, so is everyone else in Edina. When mobs riot again, you should not be the obstacle to Edina
residents defending themselves. It bothers me that I have to say this. We chose Edina in part because of the small-town
levels of safety. That doesn't exist anymore, thanks to your deliberate efforts to demonize law enforcement. Outlawing legal
means of self-defense looks like more support of lawless mobs. Please drop this foolish campaign, and instead enforce
current laws, and support leaders and prosecutors who aggressively enforce laws.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
I own a condominium in Edina and am not in a position to relocate without incurring significant financial hardship. Under the
proposed ordinance, I would become a criminal solely due to a change in law, despite having committed no wrongdoing. I
own a firearm for lawful purposes, including hunting and recreational target shooting. My ownership of this rifle does not
place others at increased risk. Nevertheless, out of fear of hypothetical future misuse, a ban is now being considered. I did
not expect that choosing to live in what I believed to be a safe and welcoming community would result in being targeted by
my own government, one I actively support and vote for. Public policy should distinguish between responsible citizens and
those who commit crimes. Just as one would not discard an entire container of blueberries because a single berry is spoiled,
we should not criminalize law-abiding individuals because of the actions of a few. Our legal system is founded on
accountability for actual wrongdoing, not on punishing individuals for crimes they have not committed. This principle is
fundamental to why we guarantee due process and the right to a trial by a jury of one’s peers. I strongly believe that
responsible firearm owners should not be criminalized for lawful behavior. Instead, efforts should focus on increasing
penalties for those who commit violent acts and enforcing existing laws. Creating new offenses for lawful conduct risks
unintended consequences and does not address the root causes of violence. Finally, it is important to note that none of the
proposed ordinances would have prevented the Annunciation shooting. Laws enacted in response to tragedy, while
understandable, can be short-sighted if they do not effectively improve public safety. I respectfully urge you to follow existing
state and federal law and to refrain from passing these ordinances.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage

Thank you for pursuing sensible firearms safety rules in Edina. In the same way that Edina took the lead on raising the age
of legal tobacco purchase, our city can set an example for other municipalities seeking to address the urgent public health
problem of gun violence. Doing so will give state representatives political cover to make the changes needed so that city gun
ordinances become enforceable. Although I don't expect edits at this stage in the process given the legally conservative
position the city must strike, I hope that at some point you remove the exemption for "Persons actively using a prohibited
firearm or firearm component for lawful self-defense purposes." Assault-style firearms are designed to slaughter multiple
people and have no justification beyond authorized military use. Gun rights are not a binary issue; common sense safety
measures must be added and enforced.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage

Re: Proposed Edina Gun Legislation Greetings & Salutations, The following is respectful input regarding Edina pending gun
control legislation. Item A - Nightline Deadly Business (Ted Koppel) In August 2003, Nightline’s Ted Koppel aired one of his
most dynamic programs entitled, “Deadly Business”. The program focused on the world’s global gun trade. My takeaway
from the program suggests the following. “Liken the global, thus America’s, gun trade to an iceberg, 20% (legal) above water
and 80% (illegal) below water.”. So enthralled with the broadcast, I ordered and still have in archive, the program transcript.
If interested, I would be happy to forward the .pdf file to the committee. Item B - Alcohol Prohibition Lessons Learned
Keeping with the legal versus illegal discussion, the harsh lesson learned from alcohol prohibition via the 18th Amendment
(circa 1919) was a result which made criminals of law abiding citizens and planted the seeds of a massive criminal
underworld which cost the lives of thousands even past the amendment’s repeal (circa 1933). Item C - Thinking Outside the
Box If the objective of Edina is to maintain the status quo of running in neutral, as in truly accomplish nothing but ineffective
legislative paperwork, by all means, continue the path of generating “feel good” legislation. In other words, legislation which
makes people feel good by doing something, even though that something accomplishes little, if anything. This includes
passing Constitutional tests. As such, rather than running in neutral, might I present to the committee an alternative
approach by recommending The City of Edina and/or Edian Public Schools give consideration to developing “gun safety
training course”. The objective of the program would be in part focused on safety, but also in part tapering the allure many
youth have with guns, in part proactively alerting them to the dangers of guns and of most importance, the personal
responsibility of gun ownership. A gun safety/training program would be conducted and funded by volunteers with program
highlights including but not limited to the following. * Attendee Scope: Op-In only for middle/high school students. *
Legislation: Federal (e.g., Constitution) and State (e.g., Red Flag laws, etc.) * Emergency Situations: How to respond in the
event of suspicious activities and/or emergency situation. * Range shooting. * Trainers: All Volunteers (e.g., Veterans, Law
Enforcement, NRA, Gun Shop/Ranges, etc.). * Costs: Absorbed by Gun manufacturers, Gun shops/ranges, NRA,
Donations, etc. * Expansion: Consider opening the program to all citizens. * Resource Sharing: As is done with fire fighter
training, Edina could partner with other municipalities. As a counter to those who will oppose a gun safety/training program,
might I remind the committee that, under adult supervision, students today participate in a Minnesota State High School
League (MSHSL) sanctioned co-curucilar shooting programs for high school boys and girls. Unquestionably if you keep
doing what you’re doing–You’ll keep getting what you’re getting (e.g., running in neutral). Sincerely hope the committee
seriously considers the words of wisdom expressed in the first two items. Even more, sincerely, hoping the committee cease
tracking along with the status quo, utilize a stepping outside the box mindset/approach, and be proactive in developing a
gun safety/training program. I thank the committee for their time. Feedback welcome. Regards, L. A. Ellis - MSHSL Board of
Directors – Emeritus

It is important to enact controls over weapons that cause mass casualties/destruction. I see no valid reason for anyone to
possess / use weapons like this unless there is a war. I'm not sure even law enforcement etc individuals have a need,
certainly not a need for private weapons like this. This may be outside of the scope, but I do understand there may be a
financial loss to individuals who currently possess the banned weapons. Can there be a buyback program associated to
encourage turning over these weapons? And can the weapons be destroyed instead of being sold to a resident in the city

As a Grandparent and great aunt of Annunciation students I am begging you to pass this gun control ban. Someone has to
start standing up for gun control of assault weapons. There is no need for a gun that can kill so many people in a minute. I
can tell you from first hand witness that these Annunciation student and families are suffering. The night of the Christmas
program WCCO news gave a nice report about the healing program. What they did not report was how a child fainted,
parents rushed the stage and the children had no idea what was happening. They were scared, crying and some had to
leave. My granddaughter does not feel safe. She has yet to make a full week of school. Loud noises scare her and she
breaks down. It goes on and on. This is so painful to watch as a grandparent. My great niece will have shrapnel in her body
for the rest of her life. It is horrible and painful as you don’t want to imagine! I don’t want any other family to have to go
through this. They are changed forever. Please do the right thing and pass this gun control ordinance. The change has to
start somewhere and I applaud your efforts bringing this forward. Please vote to pass this! Thank you, Anne

Ordinance?
Hello, my name is Patricia Roach. My husband (Daniel) and I share the same email. Your log in will not accept more than
one person to be on the same email. I shall proceed. I do not support this gun ordinance. I attended the meeting on Jan. 6,
2026. The arguments for the ordinance were coming from a place of great emotion. I agree with everyone there that the
shooting at Annunciation was tragic. No one would argue that it was not. Emotions are high on these situations but should
be dealt with with thoughtfulness and some common sense as well. It seems the ordinance would prevent none of the things
people were bringing up. We could disarm Edina residents completely and someone from Richfield,( like the kid who shot
his gun at Annunication), could come to our schools, workplaces, malls, wherever and hurt many people. Minneapolis
already has a law in place, as the rest of Minnesota, that says you can't bring a gun unto school property unless authorized.
Well, he didn't obey the law. The bad guys never do. The good guys do obey the law-the ones you want to limit. I am not a
big gun person at all. I just think you are considering something that will do nothing but give a sense of false-security to
people (like the young girl who spoke at the meeting). You make a law; it gets broken, then you find another law to make. No
results, just pacify the loud voices. Also, the category for the definition of a assault weapon can change at any time. As the
one speaker said, you can use all sorts of items to assault a person such as a knife, a 2X4, a scissor, a car, a bat, a plastic
bag! Another concern I have is that this ordinance can get our city in legal trouble. During the last meeting on this topic,
many (except one) were concerned with how Edina could pass this ordinance and avoid being sued. What kind of thinking is
that? Break a law and avoid punishment is the goal?? What kind of role modeling is being done here? I appreciate the one
city council member who said this is not the right way to handle this. There are ways to change laws. I do not agree with the
one council members comments regarding breaking the law in order to change the law. (He was referring to family in the
1960's who couldn't legally vote). As for a solution to this problem, perhaps the people who spoke against the passing of this
ordinance had some good ideas. We need to identify people who are hurting and need counsel. We need people to
understand what passing this ordinance means. As for city council people and mayor, please remember you are one of us.
Please think about what this really means and will it be effective at all. Please do not pass a ordinance that will not change
anything and only pacify the emotions that are on high right now. Thank you.

I fully support the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage Ordinance and think it is very reasonable. For us as a
community at a City level to do nothing says there is no opportunity for change in the country. We cannot wait for these
changes to happen at a National level. We need a safer community for our families and children. I am an Australian Citizen
living in the US (and now a US Citizen), with two small children. It is embarrassing that this country still falls back to the
second amendment for reasons not to substantially change gun ownership. The Port Arthur Massacre happened 29 years
ago and after that "horrific" event the country went "cold turkey" to use a members words from Tuesday night's public
hearing - and it was through their NFA (National Firearm Agreement) and buyback scheme, funding, public support and
strict laws. It led to faster falls in firearm deaths, firearm suicides, and decades (29 years) without mass shootings. We need
to push the needle in this very direction. Thank you.

I strongly urge the City Council to pass the proposed ordinance regarding firearm safety and safe storage. While I am not a
gun owner, I did grow up in a family that owned guns for hunting and understand why the second amendment is deeply
protected . However, the weapons outlined in the city ordinance, to include assault weapons, large capacity magazines, and
ghost guns are weapons of war and not intended for citizen ownership and should be prohibited. I greatly appreciate your
serious consideration on this ordinance as a step toward combating gun violence in our country.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
Greeting Council Members: AR-15 "style" rifles have been the top selling rifle for many years. They have sold over 24
MILLION in the last 35 years, obviously not likely were many bought to shoot others. They are popular hunting rifles (2
fellows were using them last year to hunt deer on my property up north). They are also great for small game and targets,
especially at long ranges. They were not designed by the military, and are not military weapons, those (M16s) are machine
guns. They only look similar because they are of modern design with weatherproof materials. More traditional rifles are made
of wood, and don't look so scary, but can shoot the exact same shells, just as fast, and with detachable magazines. Most
mass shootings use other rifles or handguns (google). Note that video shows the Australian mass shooter holding a shotgun
without a detachable magazine. It looks like you won't permit law abiding Edina residents to possess the most common
rifles. Do some research or talk to a gun shop. If a few people used Jeeps to run over kids in school yards, would you then
prohibit Edina residents from owning Jeeps (they have military origin, by the way)? John Elliott

There are so many reasons to pass this ordinance that many of the speakers at the public hearing, which I heard a portion
of, were able to express far more eloquently than I could. I was incredibly moved by the comments and personal sharing of
how gun violence has directly impacted members of our community. We don't have to live like this. This ordinance will not
end gun violence, but it's a concrete and consequential step toward trying to limit it at the profoundly damaging effects it has.
And if (hopefully when) the state lifts the preemption, it would have Edina poised to act immediately. Edina Passing the
ordinance may also provide a model and provide encouragement to other communities around the state to take action,
which in turn sends a strong message to state leaders that we want to see a change.

Very simply, please keep us safe by implementing common sense gun reform. No one should have access to semi
automatic weapons, or other guns that are designed to kill multiple people, unless they are thoroughly background checked,
trained and supervised, such as for the military. Our American society is broken - children die every day - because of an
overabundance of dangerous weapons in the hands of people who are not safe or sound of mind. Please lead the reduction
of the most offensive weapons in our city. We will pray that national attention will one day follow our lead. Thank you.

It’s critical that we protect our kids and residents. There is no reason for automatic, semi automatic or other mass murder

As a physician who cares for patient with gunshot wounds, I can say that the injuries sustained from high velocity firearms
are significantly more destructive and difficult to treat. While we cannot stop everyone who means to hurt others, limiting the
type of weapons available can greatly decrease the impact of their attacks. Safe storage is essential to preventing the
accidental injury of children at home.

As an Edina resident, I fully support Edina's proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage Ordinance and believe that this is an
important step towards creating a safer, more welcoming community for all Edina community members and visitors. As the
mother of an EHS student with special needs, I am especially concerned about common sense firearm safety measures to
keep all students, staff, city employees, and residents safe. The current climate of escalated fear, stress, and tensions that
many Edina residents and employees are facing - from the local school shooting this fall to the ongoing federal actions in
the Twin Cities - make this ordinance even more important now. Thank you for your considered attention to the safety of our
Edina community and for your service on the City Council - I appreciate it!

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
I am in support of the proposed ordinance to regulate firearms and firearm components. I am a mom to two young children.
It is unfathomable that we have seen no meaningful changes to gun control after countless mass shootings at schools.
When the mass shooting at Annunciation happened, it was frightening, heartbreaking and only highlighted how you never
know when or where it could happen or how close it could happen to you. Our children deserve protection from gun violence
especially in a school setting where they should feel safe from harm. At the time of the shooting at Annunciation, my older
child was 4 years old. I did not think I would need to explain the shooting to her. I hoped I would not have to. However, she
saw the ribbons all around town and asked me about them. I did not want to lie to her and I did not want her to hear things
that were untrue from others. As best as I could I explained to her what happened in what I felt was an age appropriate way.
Her follow up questions were difficult for me to respond to. I hated telling her that kids were hurt at their school. We had not
discussed death before so we had to broach that subject. We had to talk about bad guys and how there are other bad guys
out there. I had to watch her sad, confused and scared face try to process what had happened. She was worried that her
friends had been hurt. She was worried that a bad guy could come to her school. She lost some of her childhood innocence
that day. Then I had to explain how the adults at her preschool will protect her so she is safe. I reassured her that we would
never put her in a situation where she would not be safe. That was the only lie I had to tell her because sadly I can’t
guarantee her safety. She will start kindergarten in the fall and it terrifies me that a school shooting could happen at her
school. I understand that school shootings will continue to be a possibility. But I believe the proposed ordinance would
regulate firearms in a way that could prevent or deter a mass shooting or hopefully reduce the number of casualties in that
situation. It is certainly a step in the right direction and by voicing my support it makes me feel a little less helpless. With
regard to the proposed safe storage of firearms, I am also in support of this as a mom. My older child is getting to the age of
having drop off play dates. I plan to ask about any firearms in the house where my child will be playing but I think having
specific safe storage requirements would go a long way in preventing firearm accidents with children. I think the proposed
ordinance could have a meaningful impact on our community and the safety of our children. Bottom line, we need to protect
our children, not guns. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
Mayor Hovland and Members of the Council, I write to enthusiastically support the proposed Firearm Safety and Storage
ordinance because of the public safety benefits it offers and because of the leadership it demonstrates to other units of
government and to the state. I have written about the Annunciation shooting and gun control multiple times, including these
linked articles. I recommend them to you. https://left.mn/2025/09/rob-doar-or-you-lying-eyes/ https://left.mn/2025/10/the-
shield-act-wont-save-the-children-elliott/ Our neighbors’ grandson is one of the children killed at Annunciation. His mother
was my son’s high school classmate in Edina. The ordinance is a respect for their loss. Critics say that the ordinance would
be subject to challenges, that it is ultra vires for a municipality, etc. To that, I would just reply with what I used to say to my
sons: You’ll never know until you try. I will emphasize a couple of things from my articles. The evidence collected at the
scene are important exhibits in the case against rapid firing, high velocity arms, especially coupled with high-capacity
magazines. According to media reports, Minneapolis police chief Brian O’Hara said investigators recovered two long guns,
an AR-15 type rife and a shotgun, probably a pump action, and 116 spent cartridges for the rife and 3 spent shells for the
shotgun. What do we conclude from this? I have not seen the actual evidence inventory, but it is probable that the shotgun
was limited in capacity by a ‘duck plug,’ A shotgun with three shells is the highest capacity allowed under federal waterfowl
rules. There were three spent shotgun shells because that is all the gun would hold. The rife was only limited by the number
of high-capacity magazines that could be swapped out. It cannot be that we care more about ducks than our kids in school.
Some members of the Minnesota Legislature champion the hardening of schools, and while elements of their proposals are
good ideas, they aren’t a solution. As I write in the article above about the ‘Shield Act,’ there are many places that children
gather that aren’t in the school itself: playgrounds, off-campus facilities, field trips, and in rows of school buses, nose to tail,
with sides easily penetrated by a high velocity rifle. The Annunciation kids were not in the school itself. I will close with a
story. When ‘conceal and carry’ was first proposed in the legislature, a group of us made a presentation to the Council to
oppose it. This was so long ago that it was in the old city hall, and Mayor Hovland was Councilmember Hovland. The
Council passed a resolution condemning conceal and carry, and with additional community activism, one state senator was
turned around on the issue for his entire tenure in the legislature. So please do not underestimate your power. Respectfully,
Steve Timmer

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage

I am writing to you about the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage Ordinance. I am against this ordinance. I personally
do not own or plan to own firearms. As City attorney David Kendall pointed out, Minnesota state law currently preempts local
regulation of firearms, ammunition and its related components. Therefore, this ordinance is not enforceable and likely to face
legal challenges. As an Edina resident, I have seen double digit tax levy increase in recent years, way more than the pace of
one's income increase. I believe it is extremely irresponsible for City Council to adopt such ordinance just to show the
council’s stand using tax payers’ money. I urge you to be fiscally responsible and focus on issues that will truly benefit the
residents, and not just something to show your own political view. A recent example of wasting tax payers’ money is the not
much participated compost collection program that city forced upon residents.

Q1.What feedback would you like the City Council to consider regarding the proposed Firearm Safety and Safe Storage
Ordinance?
TO: Mayor James B. Hovland and Members of the Edina City Council RE: Opposition to Proposed Firearm Ordinance Mayor
Hovland and Council Members: I am writing to express my formal opposition to the proposed ordinance seeking to regulate,
among other things, possession of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. As a Minnesota licensed attorney with
over 30 years' experience, I read City Attorney Dave Kendall's October 22, 2025 memorandum, addressed to the Council,
as an Opinion of Counsel. And, as an attorney who has written and/or received on behalf of clients hundreds, if not
thousands, of Opinions of Counsel, it is crystal clear that the City Attorney believes, and is advising you, that this proposed
ordinance exceeds the City of Edina's municipal authority and will likely result the City being made a defendant in costly
litigation, and that the City's likelihood of prevailing is very slim, at best. The City Attorney's Opinion is based upon: 1.
Statutory Preemption under Minnesota Law The proposed ordinance directly violates Minnesota Statute § 471.633, which
explicitly states that the legislature "preempts all authority" of home rule charter or statutory cities to regulate firearms,
ammunition, or their components. Total Exclusion: The statute provides that the state’s authority is to the "complete
exclusion of any order, ordinance or regulation" by a municipality. Void Ordinances: Under existing law, any local regulation
inconsistent with this state statute is legally void. 2. Constitutional Violations (Second Amendment) Even if the proposed
ordinance was not explicitly preempted by, and void pursuant to, Minnesota law, it fails the "history and tradition" test
established by the U.S. Supreme Court in NYSRPA v. Bruen. Common Use Doctrine: Firearms classified as "assault
weapons," such as the AR-15, are among the most popular and commonly owned rifles in America for lawful purposes.
Under the Heller and Bruen precedents, firearms in common use for self-defense cannot be banned by the government.
Magazines as "Arms": Federal courts have increasingly recognized that ammunition magazines are "components" of
firearms protected by the Second Amendment. A ban on magazines over a certain capacity lacks a historical analogue in
American tradition from the founding era. It is an improper use of municipal resources to pass symbolic legislation that the
Council admits cannot be enforced until state law changes, while acknowledging that the City will most certainly experience
immediate fiscal costs and potential liabilities in passing the same, given that Pro-Second Amendment organizations will
undoubtedly sue the city if this ordinance is approved. Defending a clearly preempted ordinance wastes taxpayer funds on
litigation that the city is unlikely to win under current judicial standards. Public safety is best served when the city focuses on
functions within its legal purview—such as local law enforcement—rather than attempting to override state and federal
constitutional protections. If the Council is serious about public safety, I suggest that the City's resources would be better
utilized pressuring the Hennepin County Attorneys' Office to aggressively prosecute felony level behavior. Criminalizing
possession of inanimate objects, by otherwise law-abiding residents of Edina, is not going to promote public safety.
Aggressively prosecuting criminals who use weapons, of any kind, in the conduct of a crime, will. In addition, I would
suggest that the City of Edina would be better served if the Council would concentrate its efforts on the historical functions of
municipal government, such as infrastructure (sanitary and storm sewer, streets, snow removal, etc.), police and fire
departments, parks, zoning and land use issues, building permits and inspections, etc. From my perspective, it appears that
the City has lost its way as its focus seems to be primarily not on these historical, proper functions of municipal government,
but on activist-favored topics such as equity and inclusion, bike paths, affordable housing, and the subject ordinance. I am
not sure if the activism pushing these issues is within or external of City Hall. All I am saying is that the City would be, in
these highly polarized times, much better served by the Council if it focused on blocking and tackling (the historical functions
of municipal government) and not "tilting at windmills". I urge the Council to reject this ordinance. Sincerely, Brett A. Perry

My name is Ron Latz. I proudly represent Edina, Hopkins and St. Louis Park in the Minnesota Senate. I don't often get
involved in local government decisions. However, this subject of reducing gun violence has been a significant focus of my
legislative career. Because of that I was asked by several local leaders to offer my input on your opportunity to support our
efforts to pass strong gun violence prevention laws at the state. I chief authored the two most significant gun violence
reduction initiatives to pass the legislature in the last 20 years: the universal background check bill to close gun show and
other loopholes to obtaining firearms, and the Extreme Risk Protection Order or “red flag” bill to give courts the authority to
temporarily take guns away from people in crisis. These are two important steps that are saving lives today. But they are not
enough. We need to ban assault weapons. We need to limit magazine capacity to 10 bullets. We need to ban ghost guns.
We need to ban binary triggers. We need to mandate safe and secure storage of firearms. And we need to give local
governments the authority to protect their communities at a level greater than the state may be capable of doing. This means
removing preemption from State law. The city of Edina has a real opportunity to be a statewide leader in this effort. You
have been this kind of leader before. When the statewide ban on smoking in restaurants and bars passed in 2007, we set a
floor but not a ceiling on local efforts, allowing more protective measures by local governments. Edina was a trailblazer in
protecting youthful consumers from tobacco by passing the ban on sales of tobacco products to persons under the age of
21- being the first in the state to do so, in 2017 - and banning the sale of flavored tobacco products. This paved the way for
statewide passage of Tobacco 21 in 2020. Now another public health threat faces your community. Our society is awash in
guns. They are poorly regulated. Many are in the hands of people that shouldn't have them. Many are untraceable. Many
are modified to be even more lethal. Many are too easily accessible to children. Many are the types that cause damage like
that on a battlefield. They should not be causing the same kind of damage in our schools and our churches. Some say
assault weapons are for self-defense or for sport. In reality, they are weapons of war, not self-defense. And if choosing
between saving lives and sporting pleasure, I choose life. If you choose to pass the proposed ordinance regulating guns in
Edina – contingent on state action removing preemption – you would not just be expressing an opinion; you would be taking
concrete action to protect Edina. You might also face a legal challenge. But rest assured, you will not face it alone. I would
expect other communities to follow you by passing similar ordinances, like St. Paul has already done. I would expect other
communities to join you in defending your ordinances. Public voices like mine will support you. I have no doubt that your
residents will support you. You will once again be on the vanguard of a public health movement at the grassroots level. You
would help build the political support for passing similar statewide protections against gun violence, taking an important step
to protect the lives of all Minnesotans. I have spent years building political support to pass state laws reducing gun violence.
Do not underestimate how important you can be in accomplishing that goal. Do this for your children. Do this for your first
responders and medical professionals. Do this for your faith communities – and every person in Edina who could be
victimized by gun violence. Take it from a former city council member: this will be a bold vote. But it might very well be one of
the most important votes you take on the City Council. Ron Latz State Senator Edina, Hopkins and St. Louis Park Chair,

City Council
Item Number: 9.5 Department: Administration
Item Activity: Action Prepared By: Sharon Allison, City Clerk
Item Title: Ordinance 2026-02: Amending Section 4-9-9; Repealing and Replacing Chapter 6 Article III
Lawful Gambling of the Edina City Code
Action Requested:
Approve Ordinance 2026-02 Amending Section 4-9-9; Repealing and Replacing Chapter 6 Article III
Lawful Gambling of the Edina City Code, and grant first reading.
Information/Background:
On January 20, the City Council directed staff to return with the lawful gambling ordinance for first
reading based on staff’s recommendations. The proposed ordinance establishes a local framework for
regulating lawful gambling activities within the City, including limits on permits, eligibility requirements,
trade area spending, and financial contributions.
Since the January 20 discussion, staff made one technical adjustment to the ordinance consistent with
Council direction. Staff previously recommended discontinuing local background checks for officers of
nonprofit organizations conducting exempt gambling. To implement this change, references to a local
permit requirement were removed from the ordinance. Instead, nonprofit organizations seeking to
conduct exempt gambling will be required to notify the City at least 30 days prior to the gambling
event, consistent with state law. Staff will review and sign the organization’s LG220 Application for
Exempt Permit, which the organization will then submit to the Minnesota Gambling Control Board.
Exempt permits are issued to nonprofit organizations conducting gambling for five or fewer days in a
calendar year and awarding less than $50,000 in prizes annually.
The rest of the ordinance remains the same as presented on Jan. 20:
• Premises Permits: The ordinance limits the number of premises permits initially allowed within
the city. Staff recommend starting with three (3) premises permits to allow staff to get a full
understanding of the demand and staff’s capacity to manage the funds and reporting
requirements.
• Eligibility: Only organizations within Edina’s city limits/jurisdictions.
• Trade Area: A required percentage or all of net gambling proceeds must be expended within
the City’s trade area. Staff recommend 70%. The trade area is all cities contiguous to Edina.
• Financial Requirements:
o Impose up to 3% local gambling tax on gross receipts from gambling, minus prizes
actually paid out. The tax must only be used to cover the cost of regulating lawful
gambling. Staff recommend 3%.
o Contribution of 10% of net profit to a fund administered by the City. Use of funds are to be
determined by the Council. Potential uses could include community events such as the
Page 449 of 494
4th of July Parade.
If approved on first reading, the ordinance will return to the City Council for a second reading and
possible adoption.
Resources/Financial Impacts:
Implementation of the ordinance is expected to result in modest administrative workload associated
with processing permits, reviewing reports, and monitoring compliance. The proposed 3% local
gambling tax is intended to offset the City’s regulatory costs. In addition, the required 10% contribution
of net profits to a City-administered fund could provide a modest revenue source to support Council-
identified community priorities.

Staff Report
Date: February 4, 2026
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Sharon Allison, City Clerk
Subject: Lawful Gambling – Opportunities for Organizations to Benefit
Information/Background:
At the Council’s request, staff researched how multiple nonprofit organizations may benefit from lawful
gambling and whether a nonprofit could obtain a premises permit at a location where space is leased from the
City. This memo summarizes what is allowed under state law, the limits on City authority, and policy options
for Council consideration.
Sharing or Coordinating Lawful Gambling Proceeds
The City cannot provide legal advice to individual organizations regarding how they may share gambling
proceeds. However, staff identified several ways that more than one organization could benefit from lawful
gambling without increasing the number of gambling locations in the city.
First, state law allows more than one premises permit to be issued for a single location, however, a premises
permit cannot be shared. If Council wishes to allow this, the City could amend the ordinance to clarify limits,
such as a maximum number of locations citywide, for example 3, and a maximum number of permits per
location, for example two. This would allow two organizations to conduct lawful gambling at the same site;
however, it is unknown whether liquor establishments or the organizations would want two organizations to
compete at the same location.
Second, licensed organizations may contribute gambling proceeds to other charitable organizations, provided
the contributions meet lawful purposes under state law. The City’s ordinance already requires that 70 percent
of expenditures occur within the City’s trade area. However, the City cannot require organizations to give to
specific recipients and would be relying on voluntary decisions by each organization.
Third, the City currently requires licensed organizations to contribute 10 percent of net profits to a City-
administered charitable fund. The City must distribute these funds for lawful charitable purposes. Some, but
not all, local nonprofits may qualify to receive distributions from this fund.
Lastly, the Council could increase the number of locations allowed or limit the number of premises permits
that the Council would approve for a single organization.

Premises Permit at a City-Leased Facility
A nonprofit could obtain a premises permit at a location where space is leased from the City, provided the
lease is amended to allow lawful gambling activities and all state and local requirements are met.

Item Report
February 4, 2026
City Council
Item Number: 9.6 Department: Administration
Item Activity: Action Prepared By: Scott Neal, City Manager, Zoe Johnson, City
Management Fellow
Item Title: 2026 Legislative Platforms
Action Requested:
Provide consensus through discussion to approve the staff additions to the state platform since the
January 20th, 2026 legislative delegation work session. Approve the state and federal 2026 legislative
platforms.
Information/Background:
Since the January 20th, 2026 legislative delegation work session, staff have added two items to the
state legislative platform's Affordable Housing section, titled "Use Pooled Tax Increment Financing (TIF)
for Affordable Housing" and "Emergency Rental Assistance Financing". These items were added after
hearing Rep. Youakim's remarks during the January 20th, 2026 legislative delegation work session and
as part of staff's work for the Immigration Response Task Force created by City Manager Neal,
respectively. These new items' titles are highlighted in the attached 2026 City of Edina State Legislative
Platform as the first and second items within the Affordable Housing section.
The identification of state and federal legislation that might be changed to better achieve the goals of
the City and the broader Edina community is something that occurs each year. In the same vein, as
City staff work with colleagues and partners to identify policy changes necessary to achieve those
goals, they also work to propose changes to said policy that may be working contrary to City goals —
ultimately limiting the livelihood and progress of the broader Edina community. While legislative
sessions occur each year, legislative changes can take years to occur. Issues are debated, modified,
and could still be unsuccessful — this is why it is crucial to start the conversation early with the
understanding that details will be fine-tuned throughout the legislative process.
As the City finalizes the specifics within our 2026 legislative platforms, so do associations such as the
Municipal Legislative Commission (MLC), Association of Metropolitan Municipalities (Metro Cities), the
League of Minnesota Cities (LMC), and the Minnesota Chiefs of Police Association (MCPA). Oftentimes,
Edina's interests align with these associations both by virtue of the City's participation in each
association and their guiding purpose. The City's 2026 legislative platforms do not duplicate items
found on the MLC, Metro Cities, LMC, or MCPA platforms, but it does assume general alignment with
these partner associations.
The two types of items that make up the state legislative platform are priorities and positions. Priorities
are issues specific to Edina and do not directly affect other communities; positions are issues affecting
cities in general and are not specific to Edina. Anything that was removed from the platform was either
approved or addressed by last year's state legislative session, or has been morphed into a new
Page 467 of 494
priority/position.
Resources/Financial Impacts:
No fiscal impact to prepare and adopt these legislative platforms. Capacity impact is minimal for staff
to update legislative platforms each year.
Relationship to City Policies/Plans/Budget Pillars:
The legislative platforms largely relate to city code, the city budget, a large majority of city work plans,
the Comprehensive Plan, the Capital Improvement Plan, the Climate Action Plan, the Safe and
Equitable Mobility Action Plan, and the Living Streets Plan and Policy.
Values Impact:

Memo
Administration
EdinaMN.gov
Date: January 20, 2026
To: Mayor & City Council
From: Scott Neal, City Manager; Zoe Johnson, City Management Fellow
Subject: 2026 Federal Legislative Platform
1. Affordable Housing
Supplying affordable housing to all Minnesotans is an important investment to make for the state’s future. Unfortunately,
the funding available falls far short of what is needed. Cities cannot close the housing affordability gap on their own. The
City urges Congress to increase the allocation to Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), restore HOME and
CDBG funding, and prioritize affordable housing and work with local partners to coordinate federal housing
resources. The City urges Congress to increase support for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Home
Investment Partnership (HOME) program, the Family Homeless Prevention and Assistance Program and the Emergency
Food and Shelter program. These programs are the principal source of federal revenue for localities to use in developing
and implementing community development solutions, such as affordable housing, that create and sustain healthy,
functioning communities. These funds also serve to help prevent homelessness which is far safer for a City and more
economical than moving a household out of homelessness.
Additionally, in 2023 the State of Minnesota recognized a “right to heating” in winter to protect the comfort, safety, and
well-being of renters and low-income Minnesotans, along with additional tenant protections. The City urges Congress to
adopt similar standards nationwide, including rights to both heating and to cooling, along with additional funding for the
Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). Bills such as the Heating and Cooling Relief Act
(S.405/H.R.893) not only would allow LIHEAP to assist more households but also reduce both utility bills and building
emissions via expanded weatherization programs.
2. Climate Change
The City approved its Climate Action Plan in December 2021, setting a goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 45
percent by 2030. The plan includes 200 actions to meet our climate action goals, and the City has already started or
completed over 30 percent of these critical actions and has benefitted from federal legislation and funding. For example,
the City received a $200,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Safe Streets and Roads for All
program to create a consolidated safe and equitable transportation plan, combining existing pedestrian and bike master
plans and new plans, like a roadway safety plan. Goals of this plan will include reductions in vehicle miles traveled and
increased multi-modal transit ridership and service. While the City continues to lead local climate change efforts, federal
assistance helps us meet our goals more quickly and efficiently, particularly those concerning transportation and the
greenhouse gas effects of the transportation industry.
First, we ask for increased investment in high-speed passenger rail in the Midwest. The Twin Cities were prioritized for
more frequent service to Chicago, and the City is eager to keep this prioritization, but we also seek high-speed rail
connections to reduce short-haul flights in the Midwest. The City applauds the $500,000 of federal funding allocated to
the planning of the Northern Lights Express project and looks forward to continued investment in the Midwest’s
passenger rail network.
Page 469 of 494
Second, we ask for the reinstatement of federal clean energy tax credits to their original value and expiration dates, as
approved in the Inflation Reduction Act. These credits are crucial to helping homeowners, businesses, and government
agencies invest in clean energy technologies like solar panels, heat pumps and electric vehicles (EV).
Third, we ask for support for transit system operations, like the Stronger Communities Through Better Transit Act
(H.R.7039). Edina seeks to double its transit ridership by 2030, and operations funding can help Metro Transit increase
service to suburban communities, increasing access, and increasing ridership opportunities.
Finally, we ask that Congress declare a climate emergency. This recognition would open additional sources of funding
and mobilization of resources that would empower federal, state, and local governments to better prepare for and
mitigate the consequences of climate change.
3. Enable Cities to Protect Residents from Harmful Levels of Aviation Noise
The City identified aviation noise as a key threat to the quality of life in Edina. The City requests support from Edina’s
federally elected officials for eliminating Categorical Exclusions (CATEX) when implementing Performance Based
Navigation (PBN). The process should ensure that ground impacts and community concerns are incorporated into PBN
that will change noise exposure. Regarding measuring noise, Day/Night Noise Level (DNL) is an average and humans
perceive noise as individual events, rather than averages, so we believe it is time to investigate alternative metrics.
The City is concerned about the impacts from the increased number and frequency of flights under traditional PBN
tracks. There is currently very little information pertaining to the human impact of the concentration of flights associated
with PBN procedures. Our residents are exposed to continuous concentrated noise due to our proximity to the
airport. Although there may not be an increase in average noise as measured by DNL, there are unknown impacts from
the increased number and frequency of flights. Given the age of some Sound Insulation Programs (SIP) in the United
States, the increase in traffic density at our nation’s airports and improved technologies, the Edina City Council supports
the eligibility standards used prior to the September 2012 Program Guidance Letter (PGL-12-09).
The Edina City Council opposes the privatization of Air Traffic Control. We are concerned it may reduce the
accountability of the organization to Congress, and that without a mechanism for compelling private companies to meet
and discuss community concerns, there will be fewer opportunities for advocacy on noise impacts. The FAA has taken
positive steps to improve community engagement, including adopting a Community Involvement Manual and hiring a
Community Involvement Manager for Airspace Projects. The Edina City Council believes that this will result in a more
efficient and successful implementation of NextGen, and we strongly support these efforts.
4. Post Office Preservation
The Edina Post Office in the 50th & France District, at 3948 Market Street, is housed in a leased facility. The Edina Post
Office is important to the Edina, Minneapolis and St. Louis Park residents it serves. We ask your support in keeping a
full-service post office in the 50th & France District and to initiate the planning process for a new post office within the
next 24 months.
5. Protection of Municipal Bonds
The City’s Aaa and AAA credit ratings from Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s Investors Services are a source of
community pride and represent the financial strength of our city. These ratings create opportunities for the City to
invest in our community’s future and provide the best value in public services back to our residents. It is the
combination of local control and local responsibility that makes municipal bonds such an effective and efficient tool. Any
changes to the tax code should recognize the vital role of tax-exempt municipal bonds. The City asks you to oppose any
Page 470 of 494
attempt to make changes to the tax-exempt status that would increase the cost of financing for cities as doing so would
impact our operations, our services and, ultimately, our residents.
6. Railroad Safety
The City has one railroad that runs through the center of Edina, with two trains running daily on the tracks, and there
are numerous other tracks within a 10-mile radius. The City supports legislation to mitigate negative safety concerns,
noise, and environmental impacts of railroads and to increase communications with first responders for municipal
emergency response to non-rail incidents and rail incidents. Such legislation includes the Railway Safety Act of 2023
(S.576). These measures are needed as the number and length of trains in the state and metro area are increasing, and as
recent derailments, such as the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) train derailment in Raymond, Minnesota, highlight
the risk that rail poses to communities. Rail is an essential part of the national economy and reduces impacts on other
infrastructure, so it must be maintained and operated safely in communities.
7. Public Safety
The City operates a police department that includes sworn peace officers, a 911 dispatch division and community
engagement functions. As with many communities in the Twin Cities, recruitment and retention of police officers,
violent crime, and fentanyl overdoses remain enduring issues. The City supports initiatives like Community Violence
Intervention (CVI) programs and the Safer America Plan. These proactive strategies are making a tangible difference in
community safety across the nation, through their focus on neighborhood safety, intervention and support before
violent crimes take place, and recruiting and retaining skilled and dedicated police officers. The City urges continued
support of programs like these, through the Congressional action laid out in the Safer America Plan.
The City finds that there is a public safety and welfare crisis resulting from gun violence in the City. The City has
requested the State of Minnesota to lift broad firearm preemption laws that specifically prohibit local governments from
adopting reasonable gun laws tailored to local conditions, and asks the City’s federal elected officials support the City in
this advocacy to restore local authority to empower cities like Edina to protect residents and reduce gun violence. The
State of Minnesota’s firearm preemption prevents local elected officials and police chiefs – the officials most familiar with
local criminal activity and how to address it – from passing common sense public safety measures designed to keep their
communities safe.
8. Clarity on THC-Infused Products
With the passage of Minn. Stat. 151.72 in July 2022, products containing THC are permitted for sale. The City seeks
clarification on whether retail liquor stores can sell THC-infused beverages for two main purposes. First, without federal
passage of the SAFE banking act, cannabis-related legitimate operations cannot generate proceeds from unlawful activity,
and banking institutions can be penalized by federal authorities for providing services to a cannabis-related business.
Also, current regulation allows retailers like Edina Liquor to accept credit card payments only if the percent of total
revenue from THC products is less than 15%.
9. Condominium Affordability & Quality
The City of Edina understands that residents across the nation are struggling to keep up with escalating prices for
condominium insurance, association fees, and units themselves. Residents hold great concern over the dilapidated quality
of infrastructure within these condominium units as well as the lack of accountability with condominium building owners
and property management. The City supports efforts to alleviate these residents’ concerns, such as increased mandated
transparency measures for condominium building owners and property management to allow residents a greater ability
to understand and inquire about further cost increases related to their condominium units.

Date: January 20, 2026
To: Mayor & City Council
From: Scott Neal, City Manager; Zoe Johnson, City Management Fellow
Subject: 2026 State Legislative Platform
Priorities:
The following six priorities are made up of issues specific to Edina and do not directly affect other communities.
1. Sales Tax Spending Authority Amendment for Regional Recreation and
Public Safety
The City’s current sales tax spending limit is $71 million. The spending limit is a result of two local referendums which
approved the local sales tax in 2022 and again in 2023. The total projected revenue from the local sales tax over the
approved 19-year time frame at the approved tax rate of 0.5% is $140 million. The City seeks additional local sales tax spending authority to make capital and infrastructure improvements to its large regionally significant parks and
recreation facilities, including Braemar Park, Fred Richards Park, Edina Aquatic Center, Edina Art Center, Edinborough
Park, Centennial Lakes Park and capital improvements for the City’s public safety facilities. The City’s request can be
summarized as follows:
• Increase the City’s approved spending by $4 million to cover construction related inflation costs at its two
existing local sales tax funded projects at Braemar Arena and Fred Richards Park by amending the scope of the
current eligible expense categories: design; architecture; scoping; estimating; engineering; construction; lease payments; HVAC commissioning; payroll and fringe benefit costs for City employees who perform direct work
for the project(s); furniture, fixtures and equipment (FF&E) for all elements of the project(s); and
communications and community engagement for the project(s); and,
• To authorize the City of Edina to host an additional local sales tax referendum during the 2026 general election
to authorize local sales tax funding for the following major capital and infrastructure improvements:
▪ New Public Safety Facilities (design and construction): $25,000,000
▪ Edinborough Park (CIP spending): $14,000,000
▪ Centennial Lake Park (CIP spending): $8,000,000
▪ Edina Art Center (tenant improvement costs): $6,000,000
▪ Edina Aquatic Center (CIP spending): $8,000,000
▪ Braemar Golf Course Clubhouse (design): $4,000,000
Given current rates of sales tax revenue collection, and the previously voter approved spending, there is sufficient
revenue expected in the future to support this spending.

2. Fire Station 3/Municipal Campus Land Dedication
The Vernon Avenue and Highway 100 Interchange Project is nearing completion. The project removes barriers and
improves safety for all users with a focus on pedestrians and populations with mobility challenges. The project closed
redundant MnDOT ramps creating unused public land that could be used for a much-needed Fire Station 3 and/or a
municipal campus including a fire station in northeast Edina. The City is asking that the any surplus MnDOT land created
upon completion of the interchange project in the area bordered by Vernon Avenue/West 50th Street, Grange Road,
Eden Avenue, and marked Trunk Highway 100 be dedicated for use by the City of Edina as a fire station, a municipal
campus, or both effective the day following final enactment.
3. Lift Firearm Preemption and Allow Local Regulation
The City of Edina urges the Minnesota Legislature to lift the current preemption on local regulation of firearms. This
change is critical to allow cities to address urgent public safety and welfare concerns related to gun violence in their own
communities. Edina seeks the authority to regulate specific firearms and firearm modifications that pose an extraordinary risk to public safety – such as semi-automatic military-style assault weapons, ghost guns, large-capacity magazines, and
binary triggers. These weapons and modifications are not commonly used for lawful self-defense but have a significantly
higher capacity for causing mass injury and death compared to ordinary firearms. Local governments need flexibility to
enact reasonable regulations tailored to their community’s needs to mitigate the harm caused by these weapons when
used for unlawful purposes. Restoring local authority will empower cities like Edina to protect residents and reduce gun
violence effectively.
4. Enabling Social Districts for Vibrant Commercial Corridors
The City of Edina requests special legislation to enable the consideration and potential establishment of one or more
Social Districts within its commercial business districts, including the 50th & France business district. As Edina businesses continue to compete with both regional retail hubs and the continued growth of online commerce, it is essential to
explore innovative strategies that enhance the vibrancy and economic vitality of our brick-and-mortar commercial
districts. Social District legislation would allow for the creation of designated areas where alcoholic beverages can be
purchased from licensed establishments and consumed within clearly defined public and private spaces. This may
encourage longer visits, increased foot traffic, and stronger community vitality —further distinguishing the business
district as a unique destination for residents and visitors alike.
This legislative authority should also allow a Social District within Edina to interact seamlessly with a similar district in a neighboring municipality, such as Minneapolis, for example in commercial districts that span two different municipalities
like 50th & France. This cross-jurisdictional flexibility would enable both cities to collaboratively define district
boundaries, coordinate implementation, and partner with local business associations to ensure responsible management.
5. Sales Tax Exemption for Projects in the Braemar Park Master Plan and Fred
Richards Park Master Plan
The City will use new local sales and use tax revenue to make improvements and expansions to Braemar Arena and
Braemar Park and Fred Richards Park, as outlined in the Braemar Park Master Plan and Fred Richards Park Master Plan. The City will seek a sales tax exemption for the material and supplies purchased for the construction, reconstruction,
upgrade, expansion, or remodeling of City facilities included in the Braemar Park Master Plan and the Fred Richards Park
Master Plan.
6. Protect Municipal Employees with Enforcement Functions
Many city employees and contractors are required to enforce administrative codes, rules, ordinances, and state laws as
part of their job duties. Minnesota law recognizes the need to protect certain employees whose jobs make it more likely
Commented [ZJ1]: pierce: I don't like the
allowing local regualtion piece because of patchwork
policies...
risser: I am concerned if preemption is lifted it will give way for cities to go the other way if there isn't
some kind of state-wide floor for firearm policy
Page 474 of 494

they will be the target of assaults by escalating assault charges from fifth to fourth degree for the assaults of peace
officers, firefighters, school officials, and “public employees with mandated duties.” However, employees such as code
enforcement officials, utility operators, municipal liquor store clerks and others have similar enforcement functions. The
City supports extending the existing protection to all public employees whose jobs require them to enforce
administrative codes, rules, ordinances, and state laws as a part of their job because due to the enforcement function of their jobs, these public employees can be and have been subject to verbal assaults, threats, and physical violence. This
would make the law more evenly applicable to all employees more likely to become target of assaults.
Positions:
The following 48 positions represent issues which apply to Edina and other Minnesota cities. These positions are
grouped into six categories: General Government (pages 3-7), Municipal Liquor (pages 7-8), Affordable Housing (pages
8-10), Environment and Sustainability (pages 10-13), Transportation (pages 13-16) and Public Safety (page 16).
1. General Government
1. Realign Motor Vehicle Lease Sales Tax Allocation
In 2015, state legislation reallocated $32 million of the sales tax collected from leased vehicles from the State's general
fund, half to Greater Minnesota and half to metro counties through the County State Aid Highway Fund. To balance
funding for transit and roads/bridges, the new law excluded Hennepin and Ramsey Counties from receiving their share
of funding. Instead, the other five metro counties split the proceeds generated in Hennepin and Ramsey Counties.
With the elimination of the Counties Transit Improvement Board (CTIB) in 2017, all seven metro counties now collect their own local transportation sale tax, but the exemption still blocks Hennepin and Ramsey Counties. The City of Edina
advocates for returning to the original intent by eliminating the exemption of Hennepin and Ramsey Counties and
distributing the sales tax on lease vehicles, per the county state aid formula, to all metro counties. The City supports re-
aligning the distribution because:
• Distributing Hennepin and Ramsey County proceeds to the other five metro counties puts cities in Hennepin
County at a disadvantage when it comes to accessing county funds for road and bridge projects.
• This change would provide an estimated $10.7 million in additional funding to Hennepin County for roads and
bridges.
2. Increase Purchasing Agency
The City Manager is the chief purchasing agent of statutory Plan B cities. State law requires the City Manager to
recommend purchases and contracts and requires additional approval by the City Council. There are only 18 Statutory
Plan B Cities in MN.
• In Edina, this approval is obtained through Requests for Purchase on the Consent agenda.
• The $20,000 statutory threshold has not been raised since 2004. This does not account for standard inflation
over the past 20 years.
• The costs of items has significantly increased, most City purchases are well over $20,000. Allowing the City Manager a higher purchasing threshold can make purchasing more efficient, while still maintaining compliance
and oversight of budget.
• Neighboring charter cities with the Council-Manager form of Government, have significantly higher limits (St.
Louis Park, Minnetonka, Richfield, Bloomington, Minneapolis, Hopkins) all have $175,000 thresholds.
Page 475 of 494

• The City of Edina supports a raise in legal maximum to at least $175,000 (consistent with MN Statute 471.345)
with the ability for individual City Councils to set lower thresholds at their discretion.
3. Hearing Aid Affordability
Currently, hearing aids are not classified as durable medical equipment (DME) and therefore not covered under many
health insurance plans. Without health insurance coverage, many who need hearing aids are unable to get them, as they
cost three to six thousand dollars. The City supports programs or policy changes reducing the cost of hearing aids and
increasing access to them because:
• Hearing aids are critical devices for those who are deaf or hard of hearing.
• Without health insurance coverage, hearing aids are not affordable for those living on a fixed income. Both Edina
seniors on a fixed income and youth who age out of hearing aid support cannot access hearing aids because of
cost.
• Cochlear implants, which cost $80,000 to $120,000, are typically covered by health insurance while hearing aids
are not.
4. Allow Restrictions on Possession of Firearms in Municipal Facilities with School-Like
Use
The Minnesota Citizens Personal Protection Act, also known as “conceal-and carry,” prohibits guns on most school
properties but forbids other local units of government from prohibiting loaded firearms on their properties. The
inconsistencies in the law’s treatment of different kinds of properties have caused confusion about how the law applies
to multi-use facilities, such as municipal ice arenas used for school-sponsored programs. While various public facilities
can restrict firearm possession, including schools, public facilities with a school-like function are not granted this
authority. The City has several facilities with school-like usage and a large population of school-aged users. The City supports clarifying the law to allow municipal facilities with school-like usage to restrict the possession of firearms inside
their facilities because:
• This would align the law with other facilities that are authorized to restrict possession.
• This would be one step to securing the safety of those who use City facilities for a school-like function.
5. Add Gun Safety Protections in Solidarity with the Annunciation Catholic School
Community
The Edina City Council calls for stronger protections against gun violence and calls on the State of Minnesota to enact
and strengthen state-level protections which include consideration of the following:
• Ensuring universal background checks on all commercial firearm transfers;
• Strengthening Extreme Risk Protection Orders (Red Flag laws) by ensuring timely enforcement;
• Enacting and funding strong safe-storage and child access prevention requirements, paired with statewide public
education campaigns;
• Prohibiting the sale and possession of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines;
• Preserving and strengthening Minnesota’s permit-to-purchase and carry licensing system, and opposing
permitless carry;
• Banning ghost guns, 3D-printed firearms, bump stocks, and conversion devices;
• Expanding funding for community violence intervention programs and hospital-based intervention models; and
Page 476 of 494
5
• Fully funding school and youth mental health services so that trauma does not define our children’s futures.
6. Remove Language in the State Constitution Allowing for Enslavement of Incarcerated
People
The Minnesota Constitution states that “There shall be neither slavery nor involuntary servitude in the state otherwise
than as punishment for a crime of which the party has been convicted.” The City urges removal of this language because:
• This is immoral and out of step with Minnesota values. As a public entity, it’s incumbent on public officials to
hold the state accountable to remove this language and its consequences.
• There is recent precedent for such an action, with Colorado, Nebraska, Utah, Alabama, Oregon, Tennessee, and
Vermont striking similar language from their constitutions.
7. End Forced Labor in Minnesota Correctional Institutions
The City of Edina supports efforts at the Minnesota Legislature to end forced labor in correctional institutions by
reclassifying incarcerated individuals as workers or employees with the right to fair employment under HF3335 and
SF3536. These measures would establish minimum wage standards for participants in the Institution Community Work
Crew (ICWC) program through the Minnesota Department of Corrections, whose labor directly benefits local
communities, including Edina. Supporting fair and equitable compensation aligns with the City’s values, promotes
workforce skill development, and contributes to successful community reintegration.
• ICWC contract costs are estimated to increase with an established minimum wage, if the same number of hours
of crew work is maintained. The City of Edina is contracted for two crews of 10 workers each who complete
four 10-hour days of work.
• Without additional funding to support the ICWC program in Edina, Parks and Recreation, Public Works, and
Facilities projects and services could be impacted.
• In Edina, ICWC workers learn new job skills through serving the community through high-volume buckthorn
and tree removals, installing and removing the sports dome, horticultural maintenance, cleaning of the ice arena,
and other tasks during spring and fall transitions.
• The ICWC program is part of the Department of Corrections (DOC) work release program, intended to be a
transition to employment and stable residency in the community. The minimum wage increase is expected to
ease the workers’ transition back into the community to assist with housing, family, restitution, and other living
costs.
8. Empower Unbanked Minnesotans to Participate in the Local Economy
The City of Edina would support legislation that requires certain businesses, such as food stores, to accept cash payments, similar to bill SF4419 introduced in the 93rd legislative session. With the increase in businesses refusing to
accept cash for payment in recent years, more unbanked Minnesotans are prevented from participating in the local
economy or purchasing necessities such as groceries and hygiene products.
Page 477 of 494

9. Data Practices and Personal Information
The purpose of the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act (MGDPA) is to provide open and transparent
information to the public, while protecting personal information from indiscriminate disclosure. The City supports
mechanisms to define and regulate reasonable data requests, and charges that better reflect the actual costs of
responding to data requests due to increases in data requests and increased staff time required for repetitive, broad and
far-reaching requests.
• Cities are experiencing increases in repetitive, overly broad, and far-reaching data requests.
• These requests require significant staff time to locate government records, redact private data or data unrelated
to the request, and assemble documents to be provided to comply with requirements to provide access to
public government data.
10. Election Administration Support
The City supports greater resources to assist in various aspects of election administration in local governments.
• Supporting accessibility to voters who face barriers to voting.
• Supporting technical/administrative improvements – some changes to timeline for campaign finance and
procedure changes to the permanent absentee voting list.
• Modernizing election judge responsibilities – allowing staff to perform signature matches for absentee ballots,
language about emergency appointment of election judges for healthcare facilities.
• Supporting RCV standards and equipment.
• Supporting funding for elections through reimbursements from the state.
• Supporting policies that protect and strengthen the security and safety of elections.
11. Expansion for Collection of Park Dedication and Parks Dedication Fees
The City of Edina supports an expansion to cities’ abilities to collect park dedication feeds related to the creation of new
housing units. The existing city authority should be preserved by the legislature to maintain an ability to require parkland
dedication and park dedication fees. The City supports an amendment to Minnesota statute 462.358 to allow all cities
the option to require a reasonable portion of land or park dedication fee on new housing units and new commercial and industrial development without the requirement that land be subdivided.
12. Change Group Home Regulation
Licensed residential facilities do not have any distance separation requirements in single-family residential use zones in
Edina. Minn. Stat. 245A.11 allows distance requirements of 1,320 feet between licensed residential facilities but limits the
scope inequitably to cities in the first class. The City supports licensed residential facility use in the City and urges this
distance separation requirements be applied fairly to all cities because:
• Grouping multiple facilities on the same block in a single-family residential neighborhood creates substantial
challenges to the neighborhood and reduces the community experience of individuals in the facilities.
• Individuals no longer reap the benefit of enjoying a residential setting with a diversity of households. When entire blocks are acquired for licensed residential facilities, the setting is more similar to a large institutional
campus.
• Neighborhoods experience an increase in traffic, parking needs, deliveries, and other activities compounded by numerous facilities on the same block.
Page 478 of 494
7
• Grouping multiple facilities effectively turns a residential area into a commercial area.
2. Municipal Liquor
The City has operated a municipal liquor store since it was established by local referendum in 1948. The liquor
operation’s profits assist in funding Edina’s recreational facilities, including the ice arena, art center and aquatic center,
allowing the City to reduce user fees and allow greater access. The City’s recreation programs serve children and
families from all over the metro area, not just Edina. Continual support of liquor stores and their ability to generate
profit allows municipal liquor stores to benefit the community and region through local programs and amenities.
1. Reinforce the Open Wholesaling Systems through Legislation
In 2021, Miami-based Southern Glazer's Wine and Spirits filed a lawsuit against the State of Minnesota seeking elimination of a Minnesota law called the Coleman Act, which contains the open wholesaling system of spirits
distribution. Open wholesaling of spirits requires that all spirit brands (with some exceptions) be available for sale to all
licensed Minnesota wholesalers. This encourages healthy competition among wholesalers, benefiting both sellers and
customers. If Southern Glazer's lawsuit is successful, more than half of the spirit brands in Minnesota may become
exclusive with Southern Glazer's. The City opposes this lawsuit and supports an amendment of the Coleman Act to
reinforce a system of open wholesaling because without protection for open wholesaling:
• Wholesale prices will increase.
• Service levels on certain brands will decrease.
• Purchase and delivery schedules will be reduced.
• Sale margins will be compressed.
2. Protect Customer Data
As a municipal operation, municipal liquor stores may be subject to data practices requests. The City supports
protections for customer data because:
• Customer data subject to request could include purchase history and personal identifying information.
• The threat of data requests erodes trust with the customer.
• It may put municipal liquor stores at a competitive disadvantage.
• The City’s municipal liquor operation discontinued its customer rewards program, because without clarity of
what information is subject to a data request, the City would not hold personally identifying information and
purchase history that could be subject to a data request.
3. Clarity on THC-Infused Products
With the passage of Minn. Stat. 151.72 in July 2022, products containing THC are permitted for sale. The City seeks
clarification on whether retail liquor stores can sell THC-infused beverages because:
• Without federal passage of the SAFE banking act, cannabis-related legitimate operations cannot generate
proceeds from unlawful activity, and banking institutions can be penalized by federal authorities for providing
services to a cannabis-related business.
• Current regulation allows retailers like Edina Liquor to accept credit card payments only if the percentage of
total revenue from THC products is less than 15%.
Page 479 of 494

4. Maintain Constraints on Off-Sale Liquor
Currently, grocery and convenience stores can sell 3.2% alcohol, while all other alcohol products are sold at liquor
stores. Some grocery stores opt to apply for an off-sale liquor license and can sell beer, wine and liquor at the store,
with some adjustments, including a separate entrance. The City of Edina supports maintaining the constraints on off-sale
liquor because:
• The constraints allow for smaller private and municipal liquor stores to compete on an even playing field.
Claims that the off-sale liquor license process inhibits growth are rebutted by several grocery stores opting for some
locations applying for the off-sale liquor license.
3. Affordable Housing
Affordable Housing includes two focuses – regulatory tools for affordable housing and protecting low- and moderate-
income tenants.
1. Use Pooled Tax Increment Financing (TIF) for Affordable Housing
Currently, state statute allows for the pooling of TIF to be utilized for affordable housing within the defined
redevelopment area of the city. However, the pooled TIF must be maintained in a separate fund with ongoing annual
reporting requirements. The City supports legislation allowing the City to deposit pooled TIF for affordable housing in
Edina’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund, because:
• It would allow for great flexibility in the use of the pooled TIF for qualified costs to address the affordable
housing needs within each community including facilitating the construction and rehabilitation of affordable
housing.
• It would alleviate the administrative burden of annual reporting.
• Similar special legislation had been approved for Minnetonka, Richfield and St. Louis Park.
2. Emergency Rental Assistance Financing
The City is concerned that the federal immigration enforcement activity in Minnesota has caused many people to shelter
in place for fear of being detained. This is causing many Minnesota residents, including residents of Edina, to miss work –
putting their ability to pay rent at risk. During the COVID-19 pandemic, approximately $1 million in CARES and ARPA
funding allowed the City of Edina to support Volunteers Enlisted to Assist People (VEAP) in providing emergency rental
assistance while Edina residents sheltered in place. Once return to work was possible, our financial support decreased
accordingly. The City supports state funding allocated to cities and counties to fund agencies that provide emergency
rental assistance, because:
• Due to severe cuts in funding from the federal government and Hennepin County, the Edina HRA awarded
$200,000 to VEAP for emergency rental assistance out of the City’s LAHA allocation in August 2025. Staff is
concerned this funding will dry up quickly given the reality of fear instilled in Minnesota residents who are most
vulnerable.
• Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) reported on January 26, 2026 that calls for rental assistance are flooding in as
immigrant families are facing eviction; 211 calls requesting rental assistance more than tripled in mid-January
compared to the weekly average the previous quarter, according to Greater Twin Cities United Way, who
Page 480 of 494
9
operates the phone line. MPR says it’s a catch-22: do residents leave the home and risk being detained or hurt,
or miss paychecks to stay home and risk losing protection and that feeling of safety?
3. Reduce the Tax Rate on Land Trust Properties to Align with the 4d Property Tax
Classification
Previous legislative sessions made changes to the tax classification of Community Land Trust properties by changing the
tax classification from 1a – Residential Homestead classification, from an up to 1.25% rate to a new 4d(2) Homestead
Community Land Trust at 0.75%. The City supports a change to align with the 4d(1) property tax classification, which is
applied to low-income rental properties at up to a 0.25% rate because:
• Homeowners lease, and do not own, the land from the Land Trust.
• The property is required to be affordable as memorialized through the ground lease.
• The Land Trust is designed to create affordable home ownership opportunities, but requiring the homeowner to
pay property taxes on the value of the house and the land at a higher rate makes homes less affordable.
• Due to both leasing the land and the requirement that it stay affordable, a reduced 4d(1) is a more appropriate
tax classification than 1a or 4d(2).
• Edina has 30 land trust residential properties, with property values in the city rapidly increasing. High property
values and corresponding taxes impact the ability of land trust homeowners to remain in their home.
4. Protection of and Taxation for Housing Purchased by Corporations for Renting
The City supports legislation that authorizes a tax on the sale of these properties to corporations and protections prohibiting the conversion of single-family residences into rental properties by developers and corporations. The City
supports bills introduced in the 92nd legislature: SF 3147, imposing the tax, and SF 4313, prohibiting the conversion,
because:
• The City and surrounding communities have seen an increase in the number of residences converted from single
family homes owned by the residents to rental properties.
• Such conversion negatively impacts ownership opportunities for residents.
5. Support for “Missing Middle” Legislation with Local Controls
While the “missing middle” housing bill in the 93rd Legislature (HF4009/SF3964) was tabled, the City would look
favorably on legislation that similarly encourages and incentivizes “missing middle” housing and strategic land use
adjustments, provided it has more flexibility for local control options. The City supports strategic gentle density
because:
• The City’s Climate Action Plan has goals for reducing vehicle miles traveled (VMT) 7 percent and doubling public
transit commuter ridership by 2030, both of which are only possible in a more walkable, bikeable, and transit-
friendly Edina.
• Diversifying housing stock by providing options such as accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and duplexes allows
communities like Edina to maintain their suburban character while allowing more residents to age in place, downsize, purchase starter homes, raise their families where they themselves grew up, and more while
remaining affordable.
Increasing the City’s population broadens the tax base, keeping individual household taxes low while maintaining high
levels of municipal services.
Page 481 of 494
10
6. Promote Owner-Occupied Housing
The City supports opportunities that promote affordable home ownership for residents, which includes the modification
or removal of regulations that limit residents’ potential for affordable home ownership, for example, Minnesota’s 1-2-10
Warranty.
4. Environment & Sustainability
Environment & Sustainability has five thematic focuses – energy management and environment, right to repair,
sustainable transportation, local environmental public health programs and water resource management.
1. Establish Building Performance Standards
Large commercial buildings are a significant contributor to Minnesota’s and Edina’s greenhouse gas emissions. Building
energy benchmarking is already in use, requiring building owners to report energy use but includes no requirement for
improving their building’s energy efficiency. The City supports establishing building performance standards that creates greenhouse gas emission reduction and energy performance targets, a timeline to meet them, and financial resources to
help building owners comply.
2. Establish a Right to Cooling Standard for Minnesotans
Minnesota has an “Extreme Heat Law” to prevent utility disconnection during extreme heat conditions. To expand
protections against the negative effects of extreme heat, the City of Edina supports establishing a "right to cooling"
standard, similar to the "right to heating" standard adopted in 2023, to ensure renters have the ability to cool their home throughout the summer beyond a National Weather Service alert for excessive heat. This right to cooling should
be coupled with increased resources for the Energy Assistance Program (EAP) that provides utility bill relief and
Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) that supports air sealing and insulation upgrades. Resources should include the ability to accept applications year-round and without a cap on annual service recipients. The City supports this
because:
• Minnesota is warming rapidly.
• Excessive heat has well-documented health consequences, including serious illness and death.
• Renters require additional protections to ensure landlords provide a safe and functional home.
3. Allow Portable (“Balcony”) Solar Systems
Renewable electricity helps Minnesotans reduce their carbon footprint, save money on energy bills, and increase their
building’s resiliency. Portable solar systems, often referred to as “balcony solar” are portable, small scale solar kits that
are plug-in ready and increase solar access for residents. The City supports changes to building code, solar and
interconnection permitting, and other regulations to allow the use of these systems because:
• Renters cannot leverage renewable electricity without landlord investment and approval.
• Installing solar panels is a high up-front cost and these kits are more affordable and accessible.
• Allowing for balcony solar increases consumer choice at a time when energy prices are rising.
4. Recommit Funding for Crucial Climate Action Programs
State appropriations from the 2023 legislative session for several critical climate programs and incentives, like the
electric vehicle rebates, Solar on Public Buildings Program, Implementation Grants for Stormwater & Community Resilience, multiple MPCA-administered climate planning grants, and more, have expired. These programs provide direct
Page 482 of 494
11
support to Minnesota homeowners, renters, businesses, and nonprofit organizations looking to invest in their homes
and buildings. We know cost is one of the largest barriers to climate action and the City supports continued funding for
these programs and others that allow for immediate project implementation. Without these crucial programs, the City
of Edina would not have been able to pursue the following projects that are essential to adapting our community’s
infrastructure to a changing climate:
• With $50,000 from a Local Climate Action Grant, Edina will be the first municipality in Minnesota to use B100
biofuel for our heavy-duty vehicles instead of petroleum diesel. This will reduce our snowplow and dump trucks’
emissions by up to 90 percent while supporting Minnesota soy farmers.
• A $1.1 million Implementation Grant for Stormwater Resilience is funding a new lift station and adaptive level control system at Edina’s York Avenue Pond. By increasing the pond’s stormwater storage capacity and
increasing the pumping rate, this project will protect 355 units of housing from increased flood risk due to
climate change and reduce downstream sediment pollution to Nine Mile Creek and the Mississippi River.
• As part of the new Fred Richards Park, the City received a $500,000 Implementation Grant for Community
Resilience to construct artificial shade structures in community gathering spaces. With Minnesota’s summers
getting increasingly hotter, these shade structures will alleviate the lack of accessible shade areas and provide
immediate hot weather relief for one of Edina’s densest and fastest-growing neighborhoods.
5. Increase Funding for the State E-bike Rebate Program
The State allocated $2 million for a statewide e-bike rebate program in 2024 and 2025. The program had high demand
from Minnesotans with approximately 1,300 vouchers awarded in 2024 and an expected 2,700-2,800 in 2025. The City
supports a new allocation for funding because:
• 2024 and 2025 program participation demonstrated a high demand for assistance.
• With new 2025 program requirements, more low-income residents will be able to access climate-friendly transportation.
• E-bikes are associated with vehicle miles traveled (VMT) reductions that meet our State, County and city climate
goals, plus e-bike users see immediate positive health benefits and increased mobility.
6. Establish State Funding to Support Expanded Carshare Networks in the Twin Cities and
Minnesota
Xcel Energy pulled private funding from HOURCAR in 2023, the nonprofit electric carshare service in Minneapolis and
Saint Paul. The City supports an expanded network and has studied resident support via a partnership with the
University of Minnesota’s Resilient Communities Project in 2022-23. The City supports this because:
• Carshares are a viable alternative to owning a personal vehicle.
• Carshares have a demonstrated history of reducing vehicle miles traveled.
7. Allocate 100% of State Revenue from the Solid Waste Management Tax (SCORE) to
County Waste Management Activities
Currently, the City is awarded a portion of the SCORE funds annually for residential recycling, residential organics
recycling and participation in both at the multi-family building level. The City strives to spend 100% of the funds on
allowable purposes. The City supports continued SCORE funding because:
Page 483 of 494
12
• The funds advance waste reduction, reuse, recycling and organics programs to meet city, county and state
recycling goals.
• SCORE funding allows the City to conduct critical outreach.
8. Fund Expanded Infrastructure at the Local Level for the Creation of Compost
Processing Sites and Anaerobic Digesters
The City supports additional funding for counties creating compost processing sites and anaerobic digesters because:
• Landfilling all waste in Hennepin County and metropolitan area is no longer a viable option.
• Compost processing sites and anaerobic digesters provide more options for waste haulers.
9. Develop and Fund Zero-Waste Initiatives
Zero-waste initiatives manage all discarded materials to their highest and best use according to the waste management
hierarchy set forth in the Waste Management Act. The City supports the development of zero-waste initiatives because:
• They will aid local governments reaching recycling and composting goals.
• The City’s waste reduction goals mirror those set by the state, county and Edina’s climate action plans.
10. Expand Right to Repair Law
The Digital Fair Repair Act that went into effect on July 1, 2024, is instrumental to reducing waste and encouraging reuse
in Minnesota by furthering the life of consumer products. To further the success of the new law, the right to repair measures should be expanded to include previously excluded equipment such as farm equipment and wheelchairs
(similar to Colorado’s law) and vehicles (such as in Massachusetts). Expanding on the right-to-repair to include more
than just electronics would improve this new law to be even more equitable for a wider range of Minnesotans.
11. Continue Support for Local Environmental Health Regulatory Programs
Currently, the State delegates authority to operate food, pool and lodging establishment regulatory programs to cities
and counties. The City supports continuing local operation of these public health services and programs, because it
allows cities to provide services to meet local needs.
12. Support Funding Research, Training, and Legislation for Applicators of Chloride-
Containing De-icing Chemicals
Salt is a pollutant and causes damage to infrastructure and the environment. Private contractors tend to over-apply salt
on parking lots and sidewalks, often because they are afraid of “slip-and-fall” lawsuits. The City supports state funding for
research and training for public and private applicators of chloride-containing de-icing chemicals, and legislation to
address liability concerns of private de-icing salt applicators. Waterbodies throughout the state, including within and downstream of Edina, fail to meet the water quality standards for chloride (salt) established by the state and so have
been added to the federal register of impaired waters as required by the Clean Water Act.
13. Support Truth in Labeling for Chloride-Containing De-icing Chemicals
Truth in labeling can help consumers by providing access to accurate and comprehensive information regarding the
composition, environmental impact, risks to infrastructure damage, and exposure risk to pets. Current labeling practices
Page 484 of 494
13
falsely claim or imply chloride containing products are environmentally safe and/or pet safe. Truth labeling would
empower individuals to select the appropriate material for the job and reduce overapplication.
14. Support Reduction of Chloride Pollution from Wastewater Effluent
Chloride pollution in wastewater effluent comes primarily from water softening processes. Reducing chloride in wastewater effluent is important for meeting clean water goals in downstream waterbodies. Wastewater generated
locally is treated at the regional wastewater treatment plant before discharging to the Mississippi River. Reducing
chloride pollution in wastewater will benefit downstream aquatic ecosystems, protect drinking water sources, and
extend the lifespan of water infrastructure.
15. Inflow and Infiltration (I/I) Municipal Grant Program
Inflow and infiltration (I/I) describe the ways that groundwater and stormwater make its way into sanitary sewer pipes
and gets treated, unnecessarily, at regional wastewater plants. The Metropolitan Council identifies cities contributing
excessive I/I into the regional wastewater system and charges the city for the excess. The City supports state financial
assistance to cities for metro area I/I mitigation, such as the Municipal State Bond Grant Program because:
• I/I mitigation supports efficient use of the regional system for waste treatment.
• I/I mitigation slows the need for capacity upgrades.
5. Transportation
1. Continue and Increase Municipal State Aid (MSA) Funding
The City has 40.85 miles of roads designated as MSA. This state funding is vital to maintain these high-quality
connections. The City asks for continued support of municipal state aid funding because:
• The state aid road system was developed to provide vital, high-quality connections necessary for the overall
state highway network to work well.
• The roads that are on the state aid system typically carry heavier traffic volumes, connect major points of
interest and provide an integrated and coordinated road system.
2. Municipal State Aid (MSA) Cost Participation
The City supports malleability in, or exemption from, cost participation policies, especially for cities with a
disproportionate amount of state or county highways within and encircling their local boundaries. Special or additional
funding from the state legislative for cities that have these burdens of additional cost participation in projects involving
state and county roads including the placement of underground utilities due to those projects should be supported.
3. Support Local Design Control on Municipal State Aid (MSA) Roads
As a condition of receiving state funding for Municipal State Aid roads, agencies are required to follow prescriptive
design standards for roadway widths, lane configurations, and design speeds. These rules, intended to support uniformity
and prioritize motor vehicle travel, often make it difficult for cities to create safe, multi-modal neighborhood-oriented corridors. The City supports legislation to grant local design control to cities to implement alternative design
approaches that promote safety and mobility for all modes.

4. Increase Local Bridge Replacement Program (LBRP) Funding
The Local Bridge Replacement Program provides local agencies funding for the reconstruction, rehabilitation or removal
of bridges or structures. The program is financed by the passage of specific legislation allocating general obligation state
bond funds but regularly does not receive enough funding. The City supports funding dedicated to the Local Bridge
Replacement Program to provide safe bridges because the City has 27 local bridges.
5. Support the Highway Justice Act
The City is surrounded and bisected by several highways, including State Highway 62, State Highway 100, US Highway
169 and Interstate 494. While these roadways help connect the City to regional destinations, they also contribute to
local air pollution, increased traffic on local frontage roads and create barriers between neighborhoods. The City asks for support of the Highway Justice Act, which would help create a transportation system that strengthens our
communities by requiring meaningful community engagement, protecting environmental justice communities, and funding
multimodal transportation solutions along trunk highway corridors.
6. Expansion of Public Transportation Frequency and Reach
Edina, like much of the Metro area, continues to experience a persistent reduction in transit service frequency and reach
as a result of pandemic-era service reductions and workforce shortages. The City supports additional funding to return transit service to pre-pandemic levels, support operator hiring initiatives, and develop a connecting bus study for the
METRO Green Line Extension (Southwest LRT) because:
• The City’s transit ridership prior to the pandemic was about half the average rate of Hennepin County.
• Adequate public transit offerings are essential to doubling public transit ridership to seven percent by 2030 to
reach our Climate Action Plan goals.
• Transit service supports many community and regional goals, including improving mobility, relieving traffic
congestion, reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and promoting sustainable development and growth.
7. Increase Pedestrian and Bicycle Infrastructure Funding to Reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled
Transportation emissions account for 40% of Edina’s baseline greenhouse gas emissions and are projected to become the leading emissions source in Edina as the energy sector decarbonizes. The City supports funding to provide
pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure to decrease the use of single-occupancy vehicles and their associated negative
impacts on air quality, traffic congestion and quality of life because:
• Total vehicle miles traveled (VMT) in Edina in 2023 was more than 537 million miles, an increase from previous
years and reaching pre-pandemic levels.
• Edina’s Climate Action Plan, Hennepin County’s Climate Action Plan and Minnesota’s Climate Action
Framework all identify the need to reduce VMT to meet climate goals.
• Decreasing commuters driving alone by six percent to match the county-wide average would decrease VMT by
up to 10 million miles.
8. Allow Biofuel Blends up to 100% as part of State Biodiesel Content Mandate
Current State statute mandates a 20% biofuel blend for summer months. Growing technology and increased availability
of higher blend biofuels on the market make updating Statute a benefit for both heavy-duty fleet operators and
Minnesotan farmers and biofuel production facilities. The City supports updates to statute and fire code to make biofuel
blends up to B100 an allowable use because:
Page 486 of 494
15
• State of Minnesota and City of Edina have specific climate action goals to reduce tailpipe emissions from
medium- and heavy-duty fleet vehicles; and electrification of these fleet vehicles is cost-prohibitive and, in some
cases, negatively affects service levels.
• Biofuel is a cost-effective, market-ready solution to fleet decarbonization.
• Biofuel consumption directly supports Minnesota farmers and agriculture.
• Biofuel blends, specifically B100, are safer to dispense compared to traditional petroleum diesel fuel.
9. Exempt Government Agencies from New Public EV Charging Licensing Requirements
As an outcome from the 2025 legislative 1st special session, several amendments were enacted that affect electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE):
1. Chapter 296A (Tax on Petroleum and Other Fuels) section 051 now requires a Public Charging Operator’s
License for electric vehicle chargers;
2. Chapter 239.90 (Weights and Measures) now requires that electric vehicle charging station owners pay a $100
annual inspection fee per port, as well as instituting requirements for method of sale, labeling, and advertising for
retail EVSE; and
3. Chapter 296A section 075 now requires a $0.05 per kilowatt-hour of electricity tax for all public charging
stations with a capacity of more than 50 kilowatts that charge a fee for use.
The City of Edina supports consistency in the method of sale, labeling, and advertising in support of consumers who
utilize the State of Minnesota's growing public charging network. However, the City opposes the requirement for a
public charging operator’s license and the new annual $100 inspection fee per port for retail EVSE.
• A license is not warranted since any life safety concerns posed by electricity delivered via vehicle charging would
be addressed at the point of installation and code compliance inspection. In addition, the Public Utilities
Commission has regulatory oversight of investor and cooperative electric utilities, ensuring electricity is delivered in a safe, cost-effective manner.
• The narrow definition of “public charging station” within the statute limits this license requirement to charging
stations that are 1) located at a for-profit business and 2) require a charge (fee) for a customer to use—meaning
that any chargers located on tax-exempt parcels or offered for free are exempt from the operator’s license,
posing an inconsistency that clouds the purpose of the statute. Additionally, chargers that are free to use for the first hour or longer are in a legal gray area.
• “Retail EVSE” is not defined in statute, creating additional confusion of what stations would be required to pay
an inspection fee. Assuming EVSE owned by government agencies, multi-family properties, and other private
entities that charge for the stations use would be covered, the City of Edina would assume a new $2,400 annual
cost burden to operate its stations.
• Many public EV charging stations are connected to a managed network, which automatically notifies operators of outages, errors, or potential damage at the port. Additional regulation of the station ports itself is not needed.
• State of Minnesota and City of Edina have specific climate action goals to increase access to EV chargers through
public investment in EV chargers. Increasing the cost and administrative commitment for installing and owning
these stations through fees and licensing will reduce the number of publicly available stations, slowing adoption
of electric vehicles at a time in which the state and most cities are already not on track to reach their climate
goals.

16
While the City of Edina does not oppose the idea of a tax on public fast chargers to fund the Highway User Tax
Distribution Fund, we would appreciate assurance that those chargers will have a sales and use tax exemption for the
electricity and that this is communicated to the charging networks that work with EVSE owners to collect and remit
sales taxes annually.
5. Public Safety
While this section appears to only include Fire and EMS positions, the City is aligned with the MCPA’s 2026 legislative
agenda and supports their focuses on extending POST training fund reimbursement to agencies, recruitment and
retention, stiffer penalties for auto theft and fleeing, and other positions that advocate for the highest quality of police
services and leadership to Minnesota residents.
1. Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Local Control
In February 2022, the Office of the Legislative Auditor (OLA) released a report that found serious deficiencies with both
the management of the Emergency Medical Service Regulatory Board and the current ambulance service license process.
During the 2023 legislative session, the Minnesota Fire Association Coalition introduced legislation, HF2736 and SF2691, to implement the recommendations of the OLA relating to the primary service areas. The City supports this legislation
because:
• Local governments should be able to set standards for EMS service in their communities.
• Local governments should have the authority to find an EMS provider than can meet local standards.
2. Residential Fire Sprinklers
There are few statutory requirements for residential fire sprinklers. The City opposes efforts to statutorily limit the use of residential fire sprinklers and supports the inclusion of professionals and industry experts in the creating or writing of
any code parameters, particularly the installation of fire suppression systems in residential building code, because:
• Sprinklers protect occupants, firefighters and property from fires.
• Recent Minnesota studies show the cost of installing residential fire sprinkler systems averages $1.15 per
sprinklered square foot, or approximately one percent of new home construction.

Resolution 2026-08: Affirming Community Values
Amidst Immigration Enforcement Operations
Whereas the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and its subsidiary and partner agencies, have
initiated unprecedented immigration enforcement operations in the City of Edina and the State of
Minnesota which have created unique public safety concerns for residents, business owners and their
employees, patrons, and visitors, tourists, and City staff; and
Whereas the immigration operations are of a scale and approach that are drastically different from
the historical operations of the local office of DHS in Minnesota, including use of many officers who
have little to no ties to or understanding of communities and cultures in Edina and Minnesota; and
Whereas federal immigration operations in Edina have heightened the public’s concern as to the
safety and welfare of residents, visitors, and City staff interacting with federal immigration officials; and
Whereas these operations have increased the risk of physical injury to City residents, visitors, staff, and
local and state law enforcement officers; and
Whereas these operations are creating a climate of fear in our community that is counterproductive
to legitimate law enforcement goals of protecting public safety and welfare, and undermining the
community’s trust in policing; and
Whereas in December 2025 and January 2026, the City Council released statements affirming their
commitment to the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the City’s core values
of dignity, fairness, and respect for all individuals in response to the fear and uncertainty expressed by
residents regarding federal immigration enforcement activity; and
Whereas Edina values its partnership with state and federal law enforcement agencies in activities
designed to prevent and respond to criminal activity within the community and has urged federal
leaders to conduct enforcement activities in a manner that fully respects constitutional rights,
prioritizes human dignity, and protects public safety; and
Whereas the Edina Police Department always seeks to collaborate with residents and the community
to ensure people are treated with courtesy, dignity, respect, and understanding and that their
constitutional rights are both recognized and respected; and
Whereas the City Council desires to acknowledge these public safety and welfare concerns and
institute policies that reassure the public of the City’s commitment to serving, protecting, and valuing
all individuals, regardless of a person’s immigration status or national origin.
Now, therefore, be it resolvedthat the City of Edina formally affirms the following policy positions
amidst federal immigration enforcement operations conducted within the City of Edina:
Page 491 of 494
1. Edina objects to any immigration enforcement operations that violate the constitutional rights
of people and to the use of excessive physical force in enforcement operations.
2. The City only maintains authority to enforce state and local laws in a nondiscriminatory manner
and directs the Police Department to continue protecting the safety of the public during
immigration enforcement operations and peaceful protests of the same. The City does not
participate in immigration enforcement operations or enforce federal immigration law.
3. Edina is committed to the equal treatment of all its residents and visitors in the provision of City
resources and services, regardless of immigration status or national origin.
4. Edina is committed to stewarding its resources for the benefit of the public in accordance with
state public purpose expenditures law. As such, no City employee or public official may use or
permit the use of City resources, including City Property, for the enforcement of federal
immigration laws.
5. Nothing in this policy statement limits Edina continued partnership with state and federal law
enforcement agencies in activities designed to prevent and respond to criminal activity within
the community.
Date: February 4, 2026.

Resolution 2026-07: Urging the State of Minnesota to
swiftly approve Emergency Rental Assistance funding in
response to Operation Metro Surge
Whereas, Operation Metro Surge has created widespread fear and uncertainty among Minnesota
residents, including those living and working in the City of Edina; and
Whereas, hospitals, schools, and the construction and service industries have reported that individuals
are sheltering at home rather than risking unwarranted arrest or detention, resulting in lost wages and
financial instability; and
Whereas, many vulnerable households are now facing an untenable choice between risking detention
by going to work or risking eviction by remaining home without income, a circumstance not of their
own making; and
Whereas, housing stability is essential to the health, safety, and well-being of residents and the
broader community; and
Whereas, Emergency Rental Assistance provides a balanced approach by assissting in stabilizing
households while ensuring property owners can continue to operate, maintain, and provide housing;
and
Whereas, cities and nonprofit organizations with demonstrated experience are well positioned to
distribute Emergency Rental Assistance efficiently and equitably, consistent with prior state-
administered programs such as LAHA and SAHA;
Now, therefore, be it resolved by the City Council of the City of Edina, Minnesota, that the City strongly
urges the Governor of Minnesota and the Minnesota Legislature to approve Emergency Rental
Assistance funding as quickly as possible to address housing instability resulting from Operation Metro
Surge; and
Be it further resolved that the City encourages the distribution of such funding to cities and qualified
nonprofit organizations with relevant expertise to ensure timely and effective rental assistance to
impacted households; and
Be it further resolved that the City of Edina directs the City Manager to transmit this resolution to
Governor Tim Walz and appropriate state officials.
