Assistant Sanitarian Wilmot stated that on February 11, 2008 the Edina Police were called to Mr. Isensee's home to assist in the removal of a raccoon which entered the home through a hole in the roof. The police found that the gas stove was partially dismantled and paper was on the floor throughout the house. She said the police contacted Fire Marshal Tom Jenson, who found that the gas stove was properly disconnected. However, the conditions of the home resulted in Fire Marshal Jenson contacting the Edina Health Department for follow up. Ms. Wilmot stated that she and a Public Health Nurse visited Mr. Isensee on February 20, 2008. They found there was no need for follow up from the nurse; however, City Code violations were found. Ms. Wilmot said Mr. Isensee was verbally informed that a written notice of the necessary corrections would be sent and a timeline for correction would be given. Ms. Wilmot said February 26, 2008; Mr. Isensee was sent a notice via United States Mail, explaining the Edina City Code Section 725 violations of his home. She explained the notice was sent by regular mail addressed to Earl Isensee, Jr., 4617 Golf Terrace, Edina, MN 55424. After Mr. Isensee received the letter he notified Ms. Wilmot that his name was misspelled. Mr. Isensee sent his notice of appeal claiming the notice was invalid due to the misspelling. Ms. Wilmot said she checked with the City Attorney to verify whether a notice with corrected spelling was necessary. She reported Mr. Knutson determined additional notice was not necessary. Ms. Wilmot related that Mr. Isensee's concern was that the notice must be served upon an individual sent via certified or registered mail. She reported Mr. Knutson had determined the Code's language was awkward, Minutes/Edina City Council/April 1, 2008 but since Mr. Isensee had received his notice no jurisdictional issue existed. She stated staff recommended denial of the appeal. Earl Isensee, 4617 Golf Terrace, stated he had submitted a timely objection to the notice he received and added he believed the notice to be invalid because it had not been sent via certified or registered mail. Mr. Knutson stated that since Mr. Isensee had received his notice it was not invalid and no jurisdictional issue existed. The Council asked questions of staff and Mr. Isensee regarding whether he objected to making the repairs and the timing of the repairs. Concern was noted that the Code language regarding notice should be reviewed for clarity. Motion made by Member Swenson and seconded by Member Bennett to close the public hearing. Ayes: Bennett, Housh, Masica, Swenson, Hovland Motion carried. Member Swenson made a motion stating that because Mr. Isensee acknowledged receiving actual notice of code violations the intent of the Code has been carried out and therefore the appeal was denied. Further, staff was directed to work with Mr. Isensee to accomplish the completion of the project. Member Housh seconded the motion. Ayes: Bennett, Housh, Masica, Swenson, Hovland Motion carried. TEMPORARY INTOXICATING LIQUOR LICENSE AND SPECIAL PERMIT FOR USE OF CITY PROPERTY GRANTED - EDINA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE - TASTE OF EDINA Affidavits of Notice presented and ordered placed on file. Chief Siitari stated the Chamber of Commerce applied for a temporary intoxicating liquor license and special use permit to hold the Taste of Edina event at the Centennial' Lakes Park Centrum Building on May 1, 2008 from 4:30 -7:30 PM. Mr. Siitari displayed a graphic showing the perimeters of the Centrum building where the proposed sale would take place. He said the Taste has been an annual event that has been very well run with no public safety issues. Mr. Siitari said under Edina's Code and Minnesota Statute, the applicants were eligible for the requested temporary on -sale intoxicating liquor license and have submitted plans to meet the special requirements of City Code, e.g. physical barriers to separate the licensed premises, police protection and age of servers. Mr. Siitari added that since the Chamber did not intend to serve hard liquor he recommended that the temporary license include the condition that the sale, and consumption of liquor be limited to beer and wine. No one appeared to comment. Member Masica made a motion to close the public hearing. Member Housh seconded the motion. Ayes: Bennett, Housh, Masica, Swenson, Hovland Motion carried.

RESOLUTION NO. 2008 -36 ADOPTED AUTHORIZING MINNESOTA POLLUTION CONTROL GRANT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2008 Ms. Worthington noted Surya Iyer, Chair, Energy and Environment Commission would review the grant application. Mr. Iyer explained the Energy and Environment Commission prepared an application to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency for the purpose of seeking a $10,000 grant for technical assistance. Mr. Iyer noted when Edina created an Energy and Environment Commission in 2007 they signed the US Mayor's Climate Change Agreement and joined Local Governments for Sustainability (ICLEI). He said the goal of the grant project would be to help the Commission create a climate action plan to be adopted by the community that will lead to policies and self sustaining - actions. The multitude of climate change - related topics and approaches make creating such a plan daunting. Mr. Iyer said Edina's size makes it an ideal test ground for a climate change plan to be effectively coordinated with the Edina Chamber of Commerce and the Edina Public Schools. It would be expected that the funding from the grant would support action plans bringing together the three entities and to create organizational structures that would facilitate cooperation. A part of the project would be to coordinate neighborhood initiatives with the City's action plan. Mr. Iyer reported the EEC had already engaged with the Minnesota Climate Change Corps (CCC), and initiative of Minnesota Retired Engineers Tech Assistance Program (RETAP), to utilize their expertise in the Commissions efforts. Grant funding will support baseline and survey studies, publicity efforts, community education and outreach efforts, and joint projects with school /business /neighborhood groups (including faith -based institutions). Motion of Member Bennett, seconded by member Swenson to adopt Resolution No. 2008 -36 authorizing the Minnesota Pollution Control Grant for fiscal year 2008.

Motion carried on rollcall vote - five ayes. REVENUE BOND OVERVIEW Bond Counsel Jerry Gilligan, Dorsey & Whitney LLC, gave a brief overview of allowable revenue bond projects allowed under Minnesota law. He noted the City of Edina was authorized to issue revenue bonds to finance projects owned by private entities. Mr. Gilligan said Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.152 to 469.165 broadly defined projects that were eligible for financing with revenue bonds issued under this statute to include any revenue producing enterprise other than any property to be sold and any housing facilities. Minnesota Statute, Chapter 462C authorized the issuance of revenue bonds for rental housing facilities. The Edina HRA was also authorized to issue revenue bonds under these statutes. Mr. Gilligan said state law gave broad authorization for the types of facilities that may be financed with revenue bonds, while federal law relating to the exemption of interest on bonds issued for private entities limited the types of facilities that may be financed with tax- exempt bonds. Mr. Gilligan said while issuing revenue bonds on behalf of a private entity the City was acting as a "conduit" in order that interest on the bonds may be tax - exempt. The City loans the proceeds of the bonds to the private entity, which agrees to repay the loan in amounts sufficient to pay the principal and interest on the bonds when due. The loan repayments were pledged to the payment of the bonds and the City has no liability with respect to the bonds. In addition, the borrower pays all City expenses related to the bonds. Mr. Gilligan stated the most typical types of private facilities financed in Minnesota with tax - exempt revenue bonds were hospitals, medical clinics, nursing homes, rental housing, assisted living facilities, private colleges and schools and other facilities owned and operated by non -profit tax- exempt organizations, and rental housing facilities for low and moderate income persons owned by for - profit entities and manufacturing facilities. He said over the years Edina has issued tax- exempt revenue bonds for Fairview Southdale Hospital on a number of occasions, as well as for Volunteers of America and Walker Elder Suites, and rental housing revenue bonds to finance Edina Park Plaza at Edinborough and Vernon Terrace. In addition to issuing revenue bonds, the City has consented to the issuance of revenue bonds by other cities to finance or refinance facilities in the City. This has been done for the Southdale YMCA, Fairview Southdale Hospital and Walker Elder Suites. The City's consent was required under state and federal law for the other municipality to issue the bonds. Mr. Gilligan explained that in the cases where the City consented to bonds being issued in other cities, the bonds were issued to finance multiple facilities in different cities. By financing multiple facilities in one bond issue the borrower was able to achieve some economics of scale and reduce bond issuance expenses. Mr. Gilligan said the City does not have any liability with respect to the bonds; the issuance of bonds for non -profit tax- exempt organizations does count against the City's $10 million annual limit on bank - qualified bonds under federal tax laws. Depending on the City's bond issuance plans for the year this may have consequences for the City and needs to be considered when approving the issuance of revenue bonds for non - profit organizations. He explained this issue would not apply when the City consents to the issuance of bonds by another city, since bonds issued by the other city will not count against the Edina's annual limit on bank - qualified bonds. RESOLUTION NO. 2008 -37 ADOPTED REGARDING PETITION RECEIVED REQUESTING REVERSE. REFERENDUM Ms. Worthington said on March 19, 2008, and March 20, 2008, Kim Montgomery and Virginia Kearney presented to the City of Edina a petition consisting of 80 pages with 624 signatures stating the following: Parrs 7 Minutes/Edina City Council/April 1, 2008 "Petition to Present Capital Improvement Bond Issuance to Voters for Approval On February 19, 2008, the City Council authorized issuing a $14,000,000 Capital Improvement Bond by amending City of Edina 2007 -2011 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Per the original CIP, Capital Improvement Bond to be issued in 2008 was $8,000,000. M.S. 475.521(c) allows requesting that the Capital Improvement Bond issuance questions be presented to voters for approval. We petition .the City of Edina to allow Edina voters to vote on approval of issuing said obligation. Signer's oath: I affirm that I know the contents and purpose of this petition and I signed this petition only once and of my own free will." Ms. Worthington said Edina had 26,270 voters cast ballots at the November 7, 2006, General Election. Five percent of those voters would be 1314 voters. She added the petition has not been verified as to whether the signers were registered voters. Ms. Worthington said Attorneys Gilligan and Knutson both opined that the last General Election in Edina was that of November 2006, therefore, the petition did not contain the number of signatures required to hold an election. She said staff recommended the Council adopt a resolution memorializing the findings and their decision. The Council discussed the issue and noted their concerns including the statutory definition of general election and the vagueness of the statute relating to capital improvement bonds. It was noted the concerned citizens would have an opportunity to speak to the issue at the May 6, 2008 public hearing on the proposed redevelopment. -Member Swenson made a motion to adopt Resolution No. 2008 -37 finding the petition does not have the required number of signatures to require an election. Member Housh seconded the motion. Ayes: Bennett, Housh, Masica, Swenson, Hovland Motion carried.

UWry. 2009 5210 5290 = Feasibility Study Highlands Neighborhood Improvement No. BA -342 April 15, 2008 INITIATION & ISSUES: The Highlands Neighborhood project was initiated by the Engineering Department as part of the City's street reconstruction program and Capital Improvement Program to update aging infrastructure and address several issues including watermain improvements, drainage problems and sanitary sewer problems. The following are existing features that present issues in determining the feasibility of the project and are addressed in this report: 0 Poor condition of existing pavement 0 Surface rainwater drainage and storm sewer issues - 0 Existing landscaping, islands, retaining walls, driveways. . 0 Sump pump discharging directly onto street - 0 Sanitary sewer and watermain deficiencies • Within walking zone of Highlands Elementary School 0 Existing mature trees 0 Existing lighting In addition, City staff has concluded from comments by residents at the Open House and from written correspondence that there are eight main concerns of the neighborhood. 1. The nose of the center island boulevard at the intersection of Ayrshire Boulevard and Vernon Avenue should remain at the same location as it exists today. 2. Sidewalks as proposed in the staff feasibility report are not desired by the residents. 3. Residents believe that the proposed recommended pavement section is excessive. 4. The total replacement of the existing lighting system is not necessary. 5. The roads in. the neighborhood should not be narrowed. 6. That all watermain and sanitary sewer lines should be upgraded. 7. Reduced length of driveways on Ayrshire Boulevard due to widening of roadway and sidewalk. 8. Overall project cost and assessments to residents. EXISTING CONDITIONS: The majority of the roadways and utilities in this neighborhood were originally constructed in the mid 1950's and early 1960's. The majority , of the neighborhood currently has concrete curb and gutter with no sidewalk. The roadway widths vary in this neighborhood ranging from 23 -ft to 30 -ft. The pavement is in relatively poor condition overall. The City of Edina recently hired a consultant to evaluate all bituminous roadways within the City. The streets were graded based on a number of conditions such as sagging, alligator cracking, raveling and potholes. Streets are rated on a scale from 0 to 100; with 0 begin extremely poor and 100 representing a brand new road surface. It is the City's practice to complete a total reconstruction of the streets when the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is less than 45, a Mill and Overlay project when the PCI is between 45 and 65, ano Seal Coats for PCI greater than 65 and less than 95. .

There are areas with existing storm sewer catch basins to collect water from the neighboring streets. Page 4 of 14 Feasibility Study Highlands Neighborhood Improvement No. BA -342 April 15, 2008 The pavement throughout these streets appears to be near..the end of its useful life while the costs to maintain and repair the roadways are steadily increasing. Overlaying or seal coating the pavement is no longer feasible or cost effective. No sidewalk is present in the neighborhood. All pedestrian movements currently occur on the street network. Traffic volumes are approximately 800 cars per day coming off of Vernon Avenue. These volumes are similar to the average daily traffic on Doncaster Way south of Highlands School (see appendix Q. Watermain breaks and water service breaks have been occurring with increased frequency on the northerly and easterly section of Lochloy Drive. Sanitary - sewer - blockages- have -not- been - reported with- much-fr_equency_in the neighborhood. However, the sanitary sewer was inspected using a televising system in December of 2007 and it has been discovered that settlements, cracks and deformities have occurred in the sanitary lines necessitating sporadic sanitary sewer repairs. Most of the private utilities in this neighborhood are overhead (with the exception of the gas lines). City owned street lighting consists of standard "cobra head" lights mounted on wooden poles and are typically located at the intersections and at some mid -block locations. The street lights and underground wiring to these lights is beyond its useful life and requires an exorbitant amount of the City's maintenance budget. RESIDENT INVOLVEMENT: City staff kicked off the project by sending out an informational newsletter and questionnaire to the 74 residents of the neighborhood on February 1, 2008 to inform them of the project. Forty -four of the questionnaires were returned, for a 59% return rate. The two key issues that were addressed in this survey was the type of lighting (basic or decorative) to the neighborhood, and installation of new concrete sidewalks. The results to the survey can be seen below in Figure 3.

Page 6of14 Feasibility Study Highlands Neighborhood Improvement No. BA -342 April 15, 2008 The proposed design acknowledges and addresses as many comments and concerns by residents of the neighborhood as possible while still maintaining the desired minimum standards of the engineering and public works staff. Propose to increase the width of the city owned and maintained center island area along Ayrshire Boulevard and Vernon Avenue. The one way entrance and exist to the neighborhood would be narrowed from an existing width of 23 -29 feet to 20 feet. This would still allow a 12 foot driving lane and an 8 foot parking lane for residents. The nose of the center island boulevard would remain in the same location as today, as requested by residents. The proposed street width for any new barrier style 8618 concrete curb and gutter will be 27 ft back to back of curb and gutter along Ayrshire Boulevard. This would result in a narrowing of this road by approximately 2 -3 feet. The proposed street widths are sufficiently wide to accommodate parking and first response vehicles. The narrowing of the roadway will help to accommodate for the proposed sidewalk concrete sidewalk. The City is required to adhere to Nine Mile Creek Watershed regulations and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. Reducing pavement width by a few feet achieves the goal of reduced storm water runoff within Edina. All other streets are to remain the same width. As a traffic calming measure, intersection geometrics at many locations would be reduced. The curb lines would be pulled in to reduce the pavement width, which reduces the impervious surface for our storm water management, and the narrower intersections minimize the crossing distance for pedestrians at the intersections and help to reduce vehicle speeds. The road width will remain sufficiently wide enough for buses and other large vehicles. Currently there is no sidewalk in the Highlands Neighborhood. With the traffic volume and close proximity of an elementary school (within a walking zone designated by the school district), staff would recommend constructing new concrete sidewalk along the southwest side of Ayrshire Boulevard from Vernon Avenue to Doncaster Way. The new proposed sidewalk would connect with existing sidewalk currently on Vernon Avenue and new concrete sidewalk to be constructed, on Doncaster Way in 2008 as approved by Council fall 2007. At the Doncaster Way sidewalk Public Improvement Hearing staff informed Council that areas east of Doncaster Way were not being assessed for the Doncaster Way walk even though the area is within the walking zone of Highlands school. The Highlands Neighborhood project would be presented to Council in 2008 and a sidewalk assessment would be proposed to Highlands Neighborhood at said time. The Doncaster walk assessment was set at $180 per residential equivalent unit (REU). The Highlands sidewalk will be approximately $360 dollars per REU. The sidewalk costs will be split 50 percent by homeowner, 25 percent School District, and 25 percent city funds. This walk would be maintained by the City of Edina requiring no snow shoveling by residents. Page 7 of 14 Feasibility Study Highlands Neighborhood Improvement No. BA -342 April 15, 2008 I,acsem.

Proposed Project Layout Page 8 of 14 Feasibility Study Highlands Neighborhood Improvement No. BA -342 April 15, 2008 The city standard for local street reconstruct consists of 4 inches of asphalt over 8 inches of gravel base. This pavement section has been recommended by a geotechnical engineering firm for this neighborhood based on soil borings conducted winter 2007. The costs of total reconstruction are approximately $8,000 or 53% of the assessment to the homeowners. The total removal and replacement of pavement and gravel insures a solid foundation and roadway for many years. Other options such as mill and overlaying the roadway were looked at for reducing the cost of the project but are only a short term fix. The cracks in the base course propagate thru within 2 -4 years as seen in Photo 3. Photo 3 Reflection Cracking of a Mill and Overlay Other utility improvements would include upgrading the City's street lighting system. The current street lighting is at the end of its life and most of the system is direct bury wire with no protection to the natural environment. The current lighting system is getting too costly to maintain and would require a complete upgrade. The neighborhood was surveyed for style of lights and locations. It is estimated that $3,000 of the assessment is due to the new lighting system utilizing 16 new decorative lights. If the full street lighting system is not included in the project the City would remove the existing lighting system and install new cobra style luminares on three new Xcel wood power poles along Ayrshire Boulevard to help luminate the three intersections. The remainder 4 existing wood poles would get cobra head lighting that would not illuminate the intersections. (See Figure 6) The assessment leaved to the neighborhood could be reduced to approximately $500 per REU.

Alternative Lighting Layout The City of Edina has detailed records of watermain and sewer issues in this neighborhood and believes that the majority of the utilities are in good shape and anticipated to last for many years. However, upgrading the watermain and services on a portion of Lochloy is required due to numerous breaks and leakages. There will be upgraded hydrants with the City's new standard hydrant; miscellaneous repairs to the sanitary sewer where needed; revising the storm sewer to accommodate the new concrete curb and gutter an (4 correct the existing storm sewer problems at certain locations; and installint. sump drains where needed to allow the property owners to connect their sump pump discharges directly into the storm sewer system. Page 10 of 14 Feasibility Study Highlands Neighborhood Improvement No. BA -342 April 15, 2008 Other utility activities may include replacement of gas mains along the street which is determined and coordinated by the local gas utility company (CenterPoint Energy). The section of Ayrshire Boulevard between Doncaster Way and Lochloy is currently 23 -26 feet wide. City is recommending widening the road to 27 feet, installing curb and gutter and a sidewalk along the south side. In order to achieve the improvements the road will shifted to the north approximately 7 feet. Some shrub removal and retaining walls will be required to minimize impacts to the 4 properties along this section. The location that will see the biggest impact will be 5221 Lochloy Drive. The road will stay within the existing right of way but the length of the driveway will be reduced by about 7 feet. There will still be over 25 feet of driveway remaining, sufficient room to park vehicles.

All proposed improvements stay within this right -of -way and no additional easement requirements are anticipated. PROJECT COSTS: The total estimated project cost is $1,912,384.00 (see Table 1). The total cost includes indirect costs of 15% for engineering and clerical costs and 7.5% for first year finance costs. Funding for the entire project will be . from a combination of special assessment and utility funds. The estimated roadway construction cost is $1,084,816.00 and will be 100 percent funded by special assessments. The new concrete curb and gutter is included under the storm sewer fund not under the roadway special assessment. Utility improvements and repairs amount to $827,568.00 and will be funded through the respective utility fund.

The utilities in this neighborhood were constructed in the mid 1950's and the roadway was constructed in the early 1960's. This project is to include new pavement and protect as much curb and gutter as possible. Engineering staff will also evaluate surface drainage and other utility problems that exist (sanitary sewer, storm sewer, watermain sidewalk and street lighting) and include these improvements as part of this project. Staff will also review sump pumps within the neighborhood and will include a new sump pump drain where needed to allow homeowners to connect their sump pump discharge. SCHEDULE: The construction for this project should take approximately four months, depending on the extent of work to be completed (utility work will generally increase this time considerably). The proposed preliminary schedule is as follows: Informational Meeting ... ........................February 13, 2008 Tentative Public Hearing .. ..........................March 18, 2008 Begin Construction .............. .:........................Spring 2008 Complete Construction .......... ...........................Fall 2008 Final Assessment Hearing ......... Winter 2008 or Spring 2009 Please keep in mind that this project is "proposed only" until the City Council orders it at a Public Hearing. You will be notified of the public hearing date at least ten days prior to the public hearing. ASSESSMENTS: There will be an assessment for the roadway reconstruction costs. The assessment is based on residential equivalent units (REU), one REU per single - family residence. Properties within the Highlands Neighborhood will be assessed one full REU; properties with Doncaster Way addresses will be assessed at 1/3 of an REU. A property owner can make the decision to spread the assessment over 10 years with interest, partially pay the assessment and spread the remaining portion over 10 years, pay the entire assessment, or defer the assessment if you qualify; these decisions are made at the time of the Final Assessment Hearing. The preliminary assessments cost will be known at the open house. PROPERTY OWNER QUESTIONNAIRE: Attached is a questionnaire to help the City of Edina better understand your property drainage issues, existing underground utilities and residential lighting options.

Comments? 5 A Highlands Neighborhood Residents RE: Estimated Lighting Costs and Lighting Survey Dear Resident, ATTACHMENT F February 27, 2008 As discussed at the February 13 open house, the current lighting system in your neighborhood is past its useful life. The system is beyond repair and therefore, requires total reconstruction. The estimated assessment of $2,800 per Residential Equivalent Unit (REU) that was used at the open house includes the cost of replacing the existing wiring system and all overhead lights with the Cobra Head Light on bronze pole in the same locations as the existing lights. In addition to replacing the lighting, we've suggested decorative lighting options that are not significantly higher in cost to the Cobra Head Light. The total estimated cost per style for decorative lighting is listed below. As you can see, the costs difference between the decorative and basic styles are minimal due to the relatively small number of lights (16 lights) verses the number of homes being assessed (approximately 73). Decorative Styles Coach Lantern $3,000/REU i Acorn $3,000/REU 1 of 2 6 -Sided Post -top $3,000/REU 8 -Sided Arlington Lantern $3,000/REU ATTACHMENT F Basic Styles Cobra Head Light Shoebox Light $.2,800/REU $ 2,800/REU At the open house, we promised that we would re -survey you once the cost for decorative lighting was determined. Please tell us which style you prefer by completing the enclosed survey. A stamped - addressed envelope is enclosed for your convenience. Please note that the overall estimated assessment of $14,000 included the base price of $2,800. If you choose a decorative style, the overall estimated assessment would increase by $200.

We have not yet turned in our property owner questionaire and are hoping that it is not too late. If we were to drop it off with you tomorrow, will you still take our input into consideration? We know that there was a pretty good deal of concern by many of our neighbors regarding the project, especially in regards to the proposed sidewalk. We are supportive of the sidewalks for a variety of reasons. We want to make sure that our input is in the mix with everyone elses when the City Council considers this project. We will be out of town when the public hearing is scheduled. I think you mentioned that writing a letter with our thoughts would be another option. If we do that, would we address that letter to you or the City Council? Finally, we have been having issues with very brown water at our home since we moved in 5 years ago. They started out occuring pretty infrequently but for the last 12 -18 months the issue has gotten worse. After reading the article this summer in the StarTrib describing the issues homes in the Morningside area were having with brown water, I felt as if our issues were very similiar. It this something that should be looked at the time the sametime as this project? To whom should I report these concerns to ensure that they are evaluated?

Your presentation at the informational meeting on February 13 made it clear that the project is badly needed, although the need is obvious to anyone who takes a close look at the streets, curbs, water mains, and lighting in our neighborhood. In particular, I support the full reconstruction of services in the neighborhood, rather than just another patchwork job. The water main in front of my house breaks about every other year. My street light works only intermittently during the "wet" season. The pavement has patches on its patches. It is time to fix it all. The sidewalk on Ayrshire, from Vernon to Doncaster is, I believe, a necessity. As you are aware, traffic volumes and speeds and pedestrian loads in the area qualify this stretch of Ayrshire for a sidewalk by any civil engineering or pedestrian safety standards. While some in the neighborhood don't want a sidewalk, I believe that you are correct to put one in the project for public safety reasons. I support having more decorative street lighting, and would be willing to pay up to $500 more per REU for something like the "Arlington" lantern. I believe that many of my neighbors would agree. My only concern about the design for the project has to do with the narrower lanes on Ayrshire. I think that the proposed design does not leave enough room for safe passage of bicyclists and cars, along with one row of parked cars. Numerous adults and children from the neighborhood bike down Ayrshire to exit the neighborhood, particularly kids biking to South View Middle School. I feel strongly that the rebuilt street should include enough pavement for a designated bike lane. Finally, the proposed public hearing date of April 1 is very unfortunate; since it is in the middle of Edina Public Schools Spring Break. Many families from the neighborhood, including mine, will be out of town on vacation, and will therefore be unable to attend and express our opinions in person to the Council. Please consider moving the hearing to the previous or following week. Please share my comments with the Council, and thanks for your good work.

Or is that issue something that we as neighbors are going to have to address on our own? Ann Compton 4/8/2008 I \, Jack .Sullivan From: Robert McKlveen [bobmckiveen@mac.com] ent: Sunday, March ..16, 2008 2:48 PM = o:. Jack Sullivan 'Subject:. Letter to Highlands Neighbors Attachments: Highlands Reconstruction.doc Highlands econstruction.doc (. Dear Jack; questions on Friday. Thanks for your our -time answering m y ay. I have'attached a copy of my letter to my neighbors supporting the Highlands., reconstruction project -. Let•me.know if you have any questions. Feel free to forward to the Council. Bob McKlveen 1 Dear Highlands Neighbors, I am writing to encourage you to support the proposed Upper Highlands Reconstruction project by contacting City Council and the Engineering Department. Here's why: Streets Our streets have patches on their patches, with deteriorating pavement and settling of substrate. Bituminous roadways in our climate have an expected useful life of about 35 years, and ours are now over 55 years old. While there have been repair, recoating, and limited resurfacing projects over the years, the underlying structure and pavement of the streets have not been replaced and are beyond their useful life. Lighting Several street lights in the area work only intermittently, especially in wet weather, due to deteriorated underground wiring. Most of the wooden poles holding up the lights are weakened and need replacement. Some lights quit working so long ago that the City just gave up on them and took the poles down. Water The Lochloy Drive water main by my house has ruptured 3 of the last 5 winters, requiring mid- winter excavation of the street, repair of the main, repair of the street, then repeat repair of the street in the spring, all at great expense. The project includes replacement of the "at risk" mains in the neighborhood, so that this ongoing problem and disruption of our streets can be fixed. Drainage There are several places where the curbs and gutters are broken and. displaced, resulting in poor drainage. Settling of the streets over the years has led to "ponding" in many areas, with accelerated deterioration of the curb and gutter and pavement in those areas, as well as icy patches or mud puddles, depending on the season. Simply patching the pavement or resurfacing will not fix the drainage issues related to settling and curb and gutter deterioration. Also, the proposed reconstruction includes a secondary underground collection system for people's sump pumps, rain gutters, and lawn drainage, where applicable. The project proposes shrinking the roadway in some areas, particularly at intersections such as Vernon /east Lochloy. Decreasing hard surface roadway, as proposed, helps decrease runoff, makes grading for drainage easier with less ponding, and decreases construction and maintenance cost. It would also look nicer to have more lawn, especially at the intersection of Ayrshire and Lochloy, instead of the vast expanse of asphalt that currently exists there. Sidewalk The proposed project includes a sidewalk from Vernon to Doncaster along the south /west side of Ayrshire. Based on traffic volumes, as well as proximity to the school and connection to other existing or planned sidewalks, this route meets City of Edina as well as general civil engineering criteria for needing a sidewalk. The proposed layout aligns the new sidewalk with little or no change in the affected properties' front lawn /curb line, and without taking out any major trees. The City pays 1/4 the cost, the School pays 1/4, and the neighborhood pays 1/2, amounting to about $400 per household for he sidewalk. This is a small price to pay for the improved safety of ' pedestrians on Ayrshire, including children going to and from school. The City will maintain (plow) the sidewalk and assume liability for it. Cost The City will pay the cost of the curb and gutter installation and of water mains work, while the neighborhood assessment covers the lighting, street, and sidewalk. Costs are strongly tied to the price of oil, due to the oil -based asphalt and the fuel cost for equipment and transportation of `�- materials. I don't know anyone who predicts falling long -term oil prices, so the cost of this project will only rise if it is deferred. I'm not happy about the assessed cost of this project, but I do think that the Engineering department has been quite cost - conscious in their planning. The City has structured projects like this to put some of the expense on the City and some on the homeowner. A portion of the costs are assessed to the homeowners because they receive a special benefit from the project that homeowners in other parts of the city do not. If the City paid all the cost of projects like ours, instead of using assessments for part of the cost, we could expect significantly higher overall taxes in the future to pay not only for this project but for portions of projects in other parts of the city that are currently funded through assessments on the homeowners in those neighborhoods. For example, we would pay a.larger portion of the costs for the extensive reconstruction that is urgently needed in the Country Club neighborhood. All things considered, I think that they have found a good balance between City funding and assessment. Alternatives Option: Do nothing for now Because of the problems with pavement, lighting, water mains, and drainage, something needs to be done soon to maintain our neighborhood's infrastructure. There are numerous other neighborhoods in need of reconstruction, and based on a consultant's evaluation, our neighborhood should be done now. The City has a calendar of planned reconstruction, with a schedule going out through 2016. If the neighborhood convinces the Council not to do the project this year, then we don't know when we would be back on the calendar to get it done, but the City has indicated that we should not plan on any major work until after 2016. Deferring the project only adds to the City's repair and maintenance bills, increasing long -term costs and taxes. Like it or not, Edina is an "inner ring" suburb and, by comparison with newer communities, our infrastructure is getting visibly run down. In order to maintain the value and appeal of our neighborhoods, periodic reinvestment is necessary, so I think that doing nothing is not an option. Option: Fix only what's broken It may be possible to repair the water mains, patch broken curbs, replace lighting, and repave the streets without doing any re- grading, subsurface rebuilding or alignment changes. Such a project could save some of the cost, but not as much as one would think because it would not reduce the amount of asphalt paving. Also, such a piecemeal approach does not address drainage or sub - street foundation problems, increasing the chances of ongoing troubles. 1 think that, if such a major project is undertaken, it ought to be done right, with long -term results in mind. I am not a civil engineer, so I am no expert in these matters. However, the City engineering staff are skilled professionals who specialize in planning and maintaining our infrastructure. I trust their recommendations in these matters, and believe we should follow their advice. In summary, I think that we should go ahead with this project. I don't like the cost or the mess, but they're better than the alternatives, in my opinion. I encourage you to consider the needs of our neighborhood, and contact the Council to support the project.

Ann Compton 4/11/2008 I f Cj ,4 cc ^ k e� 7 � t4\\V\'J O�V\ Dear Neighbors, �Z b We would like to encourage all of you to support the Highlands Reconstruction project. Many children, including ours, walk to and from school. As we observe these children walking, they are forced to walk on the grass to avoid the traffic which is usually going faster than the posted speed. Some of our own residents, trash collectors, and even the Edina school buses, are among the fastest drivers. As a family with three young boys, we are afraid to allow them to ride their bikes on Ayrshire Blvd. Sidewalks would allow the children on bikes and scooters, families walking with strollers, or people just out for a walk to feel safe and not have to worry about vehicles on the road. The down sloping curve on Ayrshire Blvd on the way to the park is extremely dangerous. We have had many close calls while walking with our kids as cars drive around the blind corner at high speeds A sidewalk along Ayrshire Blvd would help ensure the safety for our residents and all the kids in our neighborhood. The reconstruction project will also fix many other important issues, however, we wanted to focus on the safety of all the residents of Highlands neighborhood. Along with the addition of sidewalks, the other proposed plans are very necessary as well. The street surfaces need to be fixed, and not just patched. New lights and light poles would enhance the look of our neighborhood as well as provide better lighting. The water and drainage issues are also extremely important and need to be remedied. The proposed plan would be beneficial for property values, safety, and appearance of our distinguished but aging neighborhood.

Assistant City Engineer City of Edina 4801 West 5& Street Edina, Minnesota 55424 -1394 RE: Proposed road, sidewalk and utility project for Upper Edina Highlands Neighborhood Project NO. BA -342 Dear Jack, In a time of declining property values and on the heels of recent tax levees, I am not in favor of spending any funds on unnecessary improvements. While the economy is in the midst of an economic slowdown it is not prudent for the city to propose projects with discretionary work. Sidewalks along Ayrshire Blvd. and altering the entrance to the Highlands neighborhood and narrowing the Ayrshire roadway are simply not needed and not a good use of taxpayer dollars. Homeowners have been asked to approve a $14,000 special assessment to fund these improvements. How can the city propose a project with a price tag of over a million dollars with no construction cost break down, or details? For over 50 years, pedestrians and vehicles have shared the roadways in this neighborhood. Narrowing the entrance at Vernon & Ayrshire will make an already unsafe entrance more hazardous. If this is a solution for making our neighborhood safer, I disagree. A handout at the City offices called the "Sidewalk Fact Sheet" describes that residents must petition the City for sidewalks. Has such a petition been presented to the City by homeowners of our neighborhood? The handout also states that sidewalks are recommended along "collector roads ", defined by the city fact sheet as a road that has daily traffic of 750 or more cars. Based on a October 2007 traffic study conducted by the City, Ayrshire Blvd. (the busiest road in the Highlands neighborhood) falls below the "minimum recommended levels ". Ayrshire Blvd. is designated as a residential road by the City. Yet the City is telling us that we must have sidewalks along this residential road. Homeowners were told that they would only pay half the cost of sidewalks. The City and Schools would pay the other half. Since Schools and City budgets are funded by taxes this statement is inaccurate. How many other neighborhood project costs are hidden in the City and School budgets? The roads in this neighborhood look like a patchwork quilt. Replacing the water main, spot repairs of storm/sanitary sewer, raw water lines, and the replacement of obsolete streetlights are repairs that are long overdue. Delaying these badly needed repairs is not a viable option. The addition of curbs and gutters along Ayrshire between Lochloy and Doncaster and the replacement of curbs and gutters where needed are also viable improvements. tOIN 1-J Page 2 26 March 2008 It appears that about one -third of the streets in the neighborhood will have one or more utilities repaired or replaced. Demolishing the remaining 2/3 of the roads for the sole purpose of meeting a new standard is impractical and expensive. City engineers have determined that the current base beneath the roadway is no longer an acceptable standard. This project envisions doubling roadbeds to a new depth of 8 ". Is this really necessary? On the remaining 2/3 of the road surfaces, a process called "mill and overlay" could be done at a lower cost. At the information meeting last month, we were told that storm & sanitary sewer have a remaining useful life of 15 plus years. I am not a Civil Engineer, but, it seems to be more practical to delay implementing a new standard of 8" roadbeds until the sewers are replaced. The last Mill and Overlay done on our streets was about 15 or so years ago. Is this a more cost effective alternative? From this home owner's perspective, the City has not effectively communicated the details about this project. The City has also not communicated what parts of the project are truly needed and what parts of the project are discretionary. Sm t Christopher T.

N W +E s Engineering Dept January. 2008 /��, __ �� .� r�s���� �� I support the authority of the Heritage Preservation Board to oversee and control the design of new construction and mayor renovations in the CC Neighborhood through the Certificate of Appropriateness process. I oppose the unnecessary permanent ban on new construction and major renovations. Unnecessary and overreaching property control, in time, will have a detrimental impact on the neighborhood, its housing stock and property values. I use the word unnecessary not only because that is my personal perspective, but because that is the conclusion of The Board's own research. In 2007, the city council and the- board commissioned an in -depth study of the CC neighborhood. In its major findings, the board's study concluded that: "The 2002 amendments to the city's heritage preservation code have effectively discouraged teardowns of historically significant houses..; the revised code has also been effective in requiring new construction (4 houses and 33 detached garages) to be architecturally compatible with older homes and streetscapes." So now, in complete disregard for its own research, the board would like to, without justification, designate over 500 homes as public heritage resources thereby forever banning new home construction and forever banning major renovations of these properties - despite the board's existing authority over the design of any major project in the neighborhood through the Certificate of Appropriateness process and the effectiveness of existing ordinances. My family purchased our home two years ago. We had a vague concept of the historic district and what it meant. The designation played no role in our decision to purchase, we bought for the concentration of families in the neighborhood, the sidewalks and proximity to where we worked and played. I had no idea that two years later, living in a historic district would be used to justify an unnecessary taking of my family's property rights. Built during World War II, the original portion of our house has marginal construction quaility and the quality of the flat roofed addition built in the 80's is even worse. Like every homeowner in CC, we have the option of limping along paying for and dealing with annual maintenance headaches or fund a major renovation and still live with the maintenance of an older home or the rarely used option -=. of building new. A home owner should be able to decide which option is best for their family. The city should not eliminate any of these options. In fact, the city should be encouraging investment to replace its aging housing stock. When discussing issues, neighbors often ask, How long have you lived in the neighborhood? - As if to measure the value of your perspective. I think, a more important and relevant question is how long are you going to live in the neighborhood? Or who is going to live in the neighborhood in the future? Ten, thirty, sixty years from now, will the families of our children and grandchildren find deteriorating 150 year old wood frame homes to be an appealing housing option? Unfortunately, due to the permanent ban on new construction, they will be the only homes available in the CC neighborhood. In the last year or so, a questionnaire was distributed to CC residents in a good faith effort to measure their concerns regarding neighborhood issues. To ensure objectivity, along with the questionnaire, residents should have received some factual history of new construction and major renovations in the neighborhood and information on the existing authority of the Board through the Certificate of Appropriateness process. Also, rather than responding to statements such as: " I want the character of the CC neighborhood preserved ", it would be more helpful for the discussion tonight, if residents responded to statements such as: "I believe newly constructed homes that are architecturally appropriate and compatible with older homes have a positive impact on the neighborhood" or "Based on historical evidence and the city's research, I do not believe that the character of the neighborhood is endangered and I am not willing to unnecessarily forfeit my rights by banning new construction and major renovation on my property ". Responses to these statements would have been insightful. In closing - One neighbor's nostalgic fondness for old houses does not justify confiscating significant ownership control of another neighbor's home. I am asking this city council to support all revisions to the Plan of Treatment proposed by the Heritage Preservation Board except the provisions which ban new home construction and which ban major renovations. Thank you for your time. Petition to City of Edina Council Members Concerning Highlands Neighborhood Roadway & Utility Improvement NO. ba -342 Petition summary and As the Edina Highlands Neighborhood we recognize the Edina City Council will meet at the Edina City Hall on background April 15, 2008, at 7:00 p.m. to consider proposed roadway improvements to be constructed under the authority granted by Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429. Estimated total assessment cost for improvements to ba -342 is $1,005,000.00. The area proposed to be assessed by the proposed improvements includes all properties between and including: 5200 to 5605 Ayrshire Boulevard, 5209 to 5229 Doncaster Way, 5200 to 5232 Duncraig Road, 5300 to 5304 Glenbrae Circle, 5201 to 5281 Lochloy Drive. These properties are proposed to be assessed at approximately $14,000.00 per residential equivalent unit. Action petitioned for We, the undersigned, are concerned Edina Highlands Homeowners, urging our Council Members to act now to consider changes to the proposed roadway improvements that will fulfull the City of Edina's desired outcome at the most cost effective manner to its neighborhood. Let it be known that the Edina Highlands Neighborhood Is In favor of improving our road project with the following changes: 1. No sidewalk will be constructed on the west side of Ayrshire Boulevard running from Vernon Ave to Doncaster Way. 2. No narrowing of Ayrshire Boulevard from Vernon Ave. to Doncaster Way. No increasing the green area on the Islands in the boulevard area between Vernon Ave. and Duncraig Road. We consider this narrowing a safety hazard for all walkers and bicycle riders In the neighborhood. We do not believe that this narrowing will reduce any perceived traffic Issues along Ayrshire Boulevard. It is the neighborhood's opinion that narrowing the roadway will cause traffic congestion In an area where we currently do not have any problems. Changing the roadway width from Doncaster Way south to the first Lochloy Drive will only Increase the danger this narrow stretch of roadway has for vehicles, bicycles, and walkers. Ayrshire Boulevard has been a road in the Edina Highlands area since approximately 1948. There are no current drainage Issues that need to be fixed by road changes or Increased green area on Ayrshire Boulevard. 3. The neighborhood is against any additional green space being added to the south end of the island located closest to Vernon Ave. This proposed added green space is what the neighborhood calls the entrance island. This proposed additional green space to the island would be a great safety hazard to all of the neighbors and guests that use this entrance to and exit from the neighborhood on a daily basis. The entrance to the Edina Highlands is a blind entrance for vehicles traveling west on Vernon Avenue toward our entrance. When we pull out of the neighborhood, It is best for us to angle our vehicles so we can better see vehicles traveling west and east on Printed Name Vernon. Also, when turning left from east bound Vernon into the neighborhood, because of the speed of oncoming Address vehicles coming west on Vernon, It Is best for people entering the neighborhood to angle their entrance onto Date Ayrshire Blvd. This helps avoid potential accidents and other safety Issues.

Road Base: We ask that the City only put in 8" road base gravel in areas where the water and sewer improvements are completed. We request that the current 4 -6 road base gravel be maintained where the water and sewer improvements are not being done. The neighborhood is approximately 45 -48 years old where the roadway Improvements are being done. There have been no problems with settling of the ground and road buckling in this neighborhood. We agree that that the streets need new blacktop. We are concerned that with the age of the current sewer and water lines not being replaced at this time, that in the next 5 -15 years the new roads will have to be dug up to repair and replace the old sewer and water lines. With this future anticipated concern and problem, we feel these repairs to the road base can be done in the future, at such time when the water and sewer lines need to be replaced. To date there has been no justification to put in an 8" base other than the Engineering Department's determination this Is the best thing to do. ,, /,').,1,4 1,70i1 . /- C',/ -/.

Estimated total assessment cost for improvements to ba -342 is $1,005,000.00. The area proposed to be assessed by the proposed improvements includes all properties between and including: 5200 to 5605 Ayrshire Boulevard, 5209 to 5229 Doncaster Way, 5200 to 5232 Duncraig Road, 5300 to 5304 Glenbrae Circle, 5201 to 5281 Lochloy Drive.

Action petitioned for We, the undersigned, are concerned Edina Highlands Homeowners, urging our Council Members to act now to consider changes to the proposed roadway improvements that will fulfull the City of Edina's desired outcome at the most cost effective manner to its neighborhood. Let it be known that the Edina Highlands Neighborhood is in favor of improving our road project with the following changes: 1. No sidewalk will be constructed on the west side of Ayrshire Boulevard running from Vernon Ave to Doncaster Way. 2. No narrowing of Ayrshire Boulevard from Vernon Ave. to Doncaster Way. No increasing the green area on the islands in the boulevard area between Vernon Ave. and Duncraig Road. We consider this narrowing a safety hazard for all walkers and bicycle riders in the neighborhood. We do not believe that this narrowing will reduce any perceived traffic Issues along Ayrshire Boulevard. It is the neighborhood's opinion that narrowing the roadway will cause traffic congestion in an area where we currently do not have any problems. Changing the roadway width from Doncaster Way south to the first Lochloy Drive will only increase the danger this narrow stretch of roadway has for vehicles, bicycles, and walkers. Ayrshire Boulevard has been a road in the Edina Highlands area since approximately 1948. There are no current drainage issues that need to be fixed by road changes or increased green area on Ayrshire Boulevard. 3. The neighborhood is against any additional green space being added to the south end of the island located closest to Vernon Ave. This proposed added green space is what the neighborhood calls the entrance island. This proposed additional green space to the Island would be a great safety hazard to all of the neighbors and guests that use this entrance to and exit from the neighborhood on a daily basis. The entrance to the Edina Highlands is Printed Name a blind entrance for vehicles traveling west on Vernon Avenue toward our entrance. When we pull out of the Address neighborhood, it is best for us to angle our vehicles so we can better see vehicles traveling west and east on Date Vernon. Also, when turning left from east bound Vernon into the neighborhood, because of the speed of oncoming vehicles coming west on Vernon, it is best for people entering the neighborhood to angle their entrance onto Ayrshire Blvd. This helps avoid potential accidents and other safety issues. Extending the island to Vernon Ave will �LA/L)C- N RQb cause more safety hazards for people entering and exiting the neighborhood. This is not a required or necessary improvement. 4.

Inf ormatiorVBackground The applicant is proposing to build a two - story, 11,130 square foot addition to the back of the existing office - warehouse building at 7275 East Bush Lake Road. (See the attached narrative and plans on pages A5 -A11.) The request requires a Final Development Plan with a 4.3 -foot rear yard setback variance from 26.2 feet to 21.9 feet. Primary Issue • Is the proposed addition reasonable for this site? Yes. Staff believes the proposal is reasonable for four reasons: The existing office/ warehouse facility is a permitted use in the PID, Planned Industrial District. 2. With the exception of the variance, the proposed addition would meet all zoning ordinance requirements. See pages 5 -8 within the supporting information of this report. 3. The plan would provide adequate parking spaces. Based on the square footage of the building and addition, 84 spaces are required. The site pan shows 84 spaces would be provided, therefore meets the code requirement. 4. The proposed variance is reasonable and would meet the variance criteria. Per Section 850.04.Subd.1.F. of the zoning ordinance, a variance should not be granted unless it is found that the strict enforcement of the ordinance would cause undue hardship. The following are the variance standards, when applying the three hardship tests: a. Are there 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. Staff believes the hardship is caused by the location of the existing building in relationship to the diagonal rear lot line. (See page Al and A6.) The addition would meet the required setback in the southeast corner of the lot, but does not as the building moves to the north. The applicant has tried to work with the angled lot line by stepping the building back, to minimize the variance. (See page A6.) The encroachment into the required setback would be a minor point intrusion. (See page A6.) The applicant is proposing a reasonably sized addition of the lot. The floor area ratio (FAR) for the building would be 27 percent with the addition. The maximum FAR for this district is 50 percent. b. Are there circumstances that are unique to the property, not common to every similarly zoned property, and that are not self - created? Yes. The unique circumstance is the angled rear lot line, which makes it difficult to build an addition off the back without the need for a variance. Additionally, the adjacent building most affected by the addition has its loading docks facing the subject property, and there are no windows on that side of the 2 building. (See pictures on pages A14 -A15.) Therefore, there would be no impact on the adjacent property. c. Would the variance alter the essential character of the neighborhood? No. The use would not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. As mentioned, the adjacent building does not have windows facing the subject property. Only the second story of the addition would be noticeable from Bush Lake Road. The addition would match the existing building. (See page A9.) The applicant proposes to improve the landscaping on the site with a combination of over story trees and shrubs. (See page A7.) Staff Recommendation Recommend approval of the Final Development Plan, and the 4.3 foot variance for the building addition 7275 Bush Lake Road. Approval is based on the following findings: 1) With the exception of the rear yard setback variance, the proposal would meet the required standards and ordinances for a Final Development Plan. 2) The proposal meets the required standards for a variance, because: There is a unique hardship to the property caused by the existing location of the building in relation to the angled rear lot line. b. The variance would meet the intent of the ordinance because the building is reasonably sized given the lot area. C. The encroachment into the required setback would be a minor point intrusion. 3) There would be adequate parking to support the addition. Approval of the Final Development Plan is subject to the following conditions: 1) Subject to staff approval, the site must be developed and maintained in substantial conformance with the following plans, unless modified by the conditions below: Site plan date stamped February 25, 2008. Landscape plan date stamped December 21, 2007 Building elevations date stamped February 25, 2008. 2) Submit a copy of the Nine Mile Creek Watershed District Permit. The city may require revisions to the approved plans to meet the District's requirements. 3) All conditions required by the city engineer in his March 13, 2008 memorandum. SUPPORTING INFORMATION Surrounding Land Uses Northerly: Office warehouse space; zoned and guided for industrial uses. Easterly: Office warehouse space; zoned and guided for industrial uses. Southerly: Office warehouse space; zoned and guided for industrial uses. Westerly: Minnesota Made Ice Arena; zoned and guided industrial. Existing Site Features The subject property is 2 acres in size, and contains the Gasson Company office/ warehouse building. The site is relatively flat. Planning Guide Plan designation: Industrial Zoning: PID, Planned Industrial District Final Development Plan Review Section 850.04.Subd. 2.5, requires the City Council to make the following findings for approval of a Final Development Plan: a) , is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan; The Comprehensive Plan designates the site for industrial uses. Office/ warehouse uses are allowed within industrial areas; therefore, the proposed uses would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. b) is consistent with the Preliminary Development Plan as approved and modified by the Council and contains the Council imposed conditions to the extent the conditions can be complied with by the Final Development Plan; There was no Preliminary Development Plan for this site. Per Section 850.04.Subd.3, only Final Development Plan is required for lots that were developed prior to 1984. c) will not be detrimental to properties surrounding the tract, A 2 -story addition would not alter the character of the neighborhood. There are several buildings in the area that are taller. Also, the addition would be located at the back of the building, and would not have as great an impact on the street side of the building. d) will not result in an overly- intensive land use; The applicant is proposing a reasonably sized addition of the lot. The floor area ratio (FAR) for the building would be 27 percent, including the addition. The maximum FAR for this 4 district is 50 percent. Therefore, staff believes the proposal is appropriate for this site, and would not result in an overly - intensive land use. e) will not result in undue traffic congestion or traffic hazards, The proposal is for a minor addition to this building. The city engineer has determined that a traffic study is not necessary, as the impact to the roads would be minimal. J) confornis to the provisions of this Section and other applicable provisions of the Code; and With the exception of the variance requested, the proposal conforms to the zoning ordinance. g) provides a proper relationship between the proposed improvements, existing structures, open space and natural features. Staff believes the proposal would meet this criterion. Compliance Table * Variance Requested Grading/Drainage/Utilities The city engineer has reviewed the proposed grading and drainage plans and found them to be acceptable. A permit would be required from the Nine Mile Creek Watershed district. See the city engineer's comments on page A16.) Building Design The addition would be constructed of a decorative concrete block, and pre- finished metal panels to match the existing building. Landscaping There are 12 mature trees on the site, and shrubs along the rear lot line. A 14 -inch Ash Tree in the southeast corner of the site would be removed to accommodate the addition. Based on the perimeter of the site, 9 mature trees are required. The applicant is proposing to plant 9 additional over story trees, and shrubs along the back lot line. (See page A7.) Therefore, the existing and proposed landscaping would conform to the City regulations for landscaping.

The existing building was constructed in 1967 -68. The current owner has occupied the building for 5 years and has a growing business requiring additional office and warehouse space. The proposed addition meets all other parking, easement, and setback requirements. The zoning classification is Planned Industrial District. The proposed addition will be to the east of existing building. The easterly adjacent property is an industrial use with a service drive on its west perimeter and a blank warehouse wall with loading dock doors. There are no residential uses near this property. The building floor line of the main floor of the addition is proposed to match the existing floor elevation. The 2nd floor of the addition is proposed to be 12' -10' above the main floor. This will result in a parapet height that is 26' -2" above the typical grade at the building east perimeter which requires a setback equal to that height. The zoning ordinance requires a 20' foot minimum rear yard setback or, in this case, because the proposed addition exceeds 20' in height, a setback equal to the height of the building at the setback line. The height of the proposed addition as designed is 26' -2 above the adjacent grade in order to provide sufficient interior volume for the proposed office and warehouse uses on two levels. The proposed addition plan steps in and out of the 26' -2" required setback line. The minimum setback provided will be 21' -10 ". The maximum will be 26' -3', with the average being roughly 24' -0 ". An existing 20' Drainage and Utility Easement also occurs parallel with the east property line. The proposed addition does not impinge upon the easement. Please refer to the Site Plan. Hardship: The existing building was constructed in order that its frontage be parallel and perpendicular to the to the East Bush Lake Road (west) property line. However, the shape of the lot is not orthogonal, and the east property line is not parallel to the west property line. In addition, the existing building was built (sited) with an unusually deep and stately front yard setback with a broad landscaped boulevard at the street. This condition appears to be unique with respect to the adjacent properties. Although future expansion was generically contemplated for the rear of the building at the time the original building was constructed in 1967 and a strip of land was left for.that purpose, a setback line predicated upon the height of the addition could not have been anticipated. In order to best utilize the land available (all behind the existing building), the proposed addition is to be stepped in plan in order to approximate the angle of the property and easement line. The stepped plan that is proposed will serve to break -up the apparent mass of the proposed addition, yet allow for the necessary interior space at the rear of the building required for the office and warehouse expansion needs of the owner. The owner therefore requests a variance to build the proposed addition with a varying, stepped rear yard setback with maximum setback of 26' -3" and minimum setback of 21'- 10" in lieu of a uniform 26' -2 ".

Bush Lake Rd.doc All PC MARCH 26, 2008 P -08 -2 Final Development Plan Thomas Barbeau /Reginald Gassen 7275 East Bush Lake Road, Edina Request: Building Expansion Staff Presentation: Mr. Teague addressed the Commission and explained the applicant is proposing to build a two -story, 11,130 square foot addition to the rear of the existing office- warehouse building at 7275 East Bush Lake Road. The request requires a Final Development Plan with a 4.3 foot rear yard setback variance from 26.2 feet to 21.9 feet. Mr. Teague concluded staff recommends approval based on the following findings: 1) With the exception of the rear yard setback variance, the proposal would meet the required standards and ordinances for a Final Development Plan. 2) The proposal meets the required standards for a variance, because: a. There is a unique hardship to the property caused by the existing location of the building in relation to the angled rear lot line. b. The variance would meet the intent of the ordinance because the building is reasonably sized given the lot area. C. The encroachment into the required setback would be a minor point intrusion. . �3) There would be adequate parking to support the addition. Mr. Teague stated approval of the Final Development Plan is subject to the following conditions: 1) Subject to staff approval, the site must be developed and maintained in substantial conformance with the following plans, unless modified by the conditions below: • Site plan date stamped February 25, 2008. • Landscape plan date stamped December 21, 2007 • Building elevations date stamped February 25, 2008. A.1 `7 2) Submit a copy of the Nine Mile Creek Watershed District Permit. The city may require revisions to the approved plans to meet the District's requirements. 3) All conditions required by the city engineer in his March 13, 2008 memorandum. Aonearina for the Applicant: Mr. Gassen, property owner, and Mr. Thomas Barbeau, applicant were present. Applicant Presentation: Mr. Barbeau asked the Commission for their support, pointing out when the site was originally developed the building was constructed rather far back from the front property line, pointing out building placement created the need for a variance. Commission Action: Commissioner Brown moved to recommend Final Development Plan Approval including variance based on staff findings and subject to staff conditions. Commissioner Grabiel seconded the motion. All voted aye; motion carried. Ail ZB Meeting April 10, 2008 B -08 -14 Thomas Barbeau 7275 East Bush Lake Road, Edina Request: 4.3 foot rear yard setback variance for building addition Ms. Aaker informed the Board the applicant is proposing to build a two - story, 11,130 square foot addition to the back of the existing office- warehouse building at 7275 East Bush Lake Road. The request requires a 4.3 -foot rear yard setback variance from 26.2 feet to 21.9 feet. Ms. Aaker explained staff believes the request,is justified and reasonable because a hardship is caused by the location of the existing building and the diagonal rear lot line. Continuing, Ms. Aaker said the addition is reasonably sized with the floor area ratio (FAR) for the building at 27 percent. The maximum FAR for this district is 50 percent. Ms. Aaker concluded staff recommends approval of the 4.3 foot variance for the building addition at 7275 E. Bush Lake Road based on the following findings: • With the exception of the rear yard setback variance, the proposal would meet -the required standards and ordinances for a Final Development Plan. • There is a unique hardship to the property caused by the existing location of the buildi g in relation to the angled rear lot line. • The variance would meet the intent of the ordinance because the buildirig- is reasonably sized given the lot area. • The encroachment into the required setback would be a minor point intrusion. Ms. Aaker said approval is also subject to the following conditions: 1) Th& addition'shall'be constructed as per the submitted site plan date stamped February 25,'2008. 2) This variance will expire on April 10, 2009, unless the city has issued a building permit for the project covered by this variance or approved a time extension. The applicant, Mr. Tom Barbeau was present to respond to questions from the Board. 4(1 Chair Staunton told the Board the Final Development Plan with variance was heard and approved by the Planning Commission at their last meeting. Chair , Staunton said in his opinion the hardship this site faces is that when the building was originally constructed it was located far back on the lot creating an overly large "front yard" resulting in limited rear yard area. The property is also compromised by an angled rear lot line. Mr. Barbeau thanked Ms. Aaker for her presentation and asked the Board for their support. A brief discussion ensued with Board Members in agreement that a hardship exists. Member Hornig moved variance approval based on staff findings and subject to staff conditions. Member Davidson seconded the motion. All voted aye; motion carried. ka.o Recommended Action: Adopt the revised Plan of Treatment for the Country Club District. Intro duction /Background The County Club District was platted in 1924 by Thorpe Brothers Realty Company with 507 of the 555 homes constructed between 1924 and 1944. The historical significance of the district is two fold: It was one of the first modern planned communities in Minnesota; and the land use controls exercised by the original Country Club Association formed the basis of the Edina's zoning ordinance adopted in 1929. The Country Club District was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The designation recognized the district as the first planned community in the state comprised of a significant and well preserved concentration of historic domestic architecture. Due to the National Register designation, many people assumed that there were controls in place to regulate building activity in the district. However, the National Register depends on the local government to provide controls and regulations. In 2003 the Heritage Preservation Landmark overlay zoning designation was assigned to the Country Club District to provide the long sought local protection.

Recommends To HRA ® To Council Subject: Country Club District Revised Plan of Treatment Action ® Motion Z. Resolution Ordinance Discussion Recommended Action: Adopt the revised Plan of Treatment for the Country Club District. Intro duction /Background The County Club District was platted in 1924 by Thorpe Brothers Realty Company with 507 of the 555 homes constructed between 1924 and 1944. The historical significance of the district is two fold: It was one of the first modern planned communities in Minnesota; and the land use controls exercised by the original Country Club Association formed the basis of the Edina's zoning ordinance adopted in 1929. The Country Club District was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The designation recognized the district as the first planned community in the state comprised of a significant and well preserved concentration of historic domestic architecture. Due to the National Register designation, many people assumed that there were controls in place to regulate building activity in the district. However, the National Register depends on the local government to provide controls and regulations. In 2003 the Heritage Preservation Landmark overlay zoning designation was assigned to the Country Club District to provide the long sought local protection. The designation was based upon the data generated by the 1980 National Register survey, which did not provide (and was probably never intended to generate) the information needed to make wise design review decisions with respect to teardowns and new construction. By 2007, the National Register survey data was badly out -of- date and it was determined that a new survey was necessary. In April 2007, the City Council imposed a one year moratorium on the tear down of homes in the district to afford the Heritage Preservation time to complete a resurvey of the district. At this point the survey is complete. The findings identified a number of information gaps and inconsistencies in the 1980 National Register documentation (conflicting dates of construction, inadequate descriptions, architectural bias) which have been corrected. More importantly, the inventory of information about the heritage resources in the district was thoroughly reviewed, reorganized, and updated to reflect conditions which actually exist, as well as the current state of practice in heritage preservation planning. The proposed revised Plan of Treatment was created to address the results of the survey. Primary Issue • Is the proposed Plan of Treatment reasonable for Country Club District? O Yes, the proposed Plan of Treatment strikes a balance of protecting the historic integrity of the district, while acknowledging personal property rights. Staff Recommendation City Council adopts the proposed revised Plan of Treatment for the Country Club District. The recommendation is based on the following findings: • Ninety -One percent, or 507 of the 555 homes in the district were built between 1924 and 1944, when Thorpe Bros. Realty controlled the Country Club development and enforced rigid architectural standards on new home construction through restrictive covenants. • The most important threat to the historic integrity of the Country Club District comes from teardowns — specifically, the demolition of historic homes and the construction of architecturally inappropriate new homes. • Overall, the level of preservation of historic facades in the district is outstanding, particularly in comparison with other neighborhoods of similarly -aged homes (including those in historic districts) in the Twin Cities. • The data at hand show that historic facades in the district are, by and large, intact. • The loss of historic integrity (i.e., the ability to visually convey historical significance) caused by inappropriate remodeling and additions has been proportionally small - less than 5% of the homes more than 50 years old have been torn down or recreated to the point that they no longer resemble the original home. • With respect to additions, over their lifetimes, most of the homes in the district have been added to —the survey data suggest that structural additions more than fifty years old often reflect an important aspect of the pattern of residential development in the district. . • The district contains a small number of buildings and open spaces that are not historically significant and therefore should not be considered heritage preservation resources. • The survey data demonstrate that the typical Country Club homeowner has been a good steward of neighborhood heritage. , I support the authority of the Heritage Preservation Board to oversee and control the design of new construction and major renovations in the CC Neighborhood through the Certificate of Appropriateness process. I oppose the unnecessary permanent ban on new construction and major renovations. Unnecessary and overreaching property control, in time, will have a detrimental impact on the neighborhood, its housing stock and property values. I use the word unnecessary not only because that is my personal perspective, but because that is the conclusion of The Board's own research. In 2007, the city council and the board commissioned an in -depth study of the CC neighborhood. In its major findings, the board's study concluded that: "The 2002 amendments to the city's heritage preservation code have effectively discouraged teardowns of historically significant houses..; the revised code has also been effective in requiring new construction (4 houses and 33 detached garages) to be architecturally compatible with older homes and streetscapes." So now, in complete disregard for its own research, the board would like to, without justification, designate over 500 homes as public heritage resources thereby forever banning new home construction and forever banning major renovations of these properties - despite the board's existing authority over the design of any major project in the neighborhood through the Certificate of Appropriateness process and the effectiveness of existing ordinances. My family purchased our home two years ago. We had a vague concept of the historic district and what it meant. The designation played no role in our decision to purchase, we bought for the concentration of families in the neighborhood, the sidewalks and proximity to where we worked and played. I had no idea that two years later, living in a historic district would be used to justify an unnecessary taking of my family's property rights. Built during World War II, the original portion of our house has marginal construction quaility and the quality of the flat roofed addition built in the 80's is even worse. Like every homeowner in CC, we have the option of limping along paying for and dealing with annual maintenance headaches or fund a major renovation and still live with the maintenance of an older home or the rarely used option of building new. A home owner should be able to decide which option is best for their family. The city should not eliminate any of these options. In fact, the city should be encouraging investment to replace its aging housing stock. When discussing issues, neighbors often ask, How long have you lived in the neighborhood? - As if to measure the value of your perspective. I think, a more important and relevant question is how long are you going to live in the neighborhood? Or who is going to live in the neighborhood in the future? Ten, thirty, sixty years from now, will the families of our. children and .grandchildren find deteriorating 150.year old wood, frame homes to be an appealing housing option? Unfortunately, due to the permanent ban on new construction, they will be the only:homes available in the CC neighborhood. In the last year or so, a questionnaire was distributed to CC residents in a good faith effort to measure their concerns regarding neighborhood issues. To ensure objectivity, along with the questionnaire, residents should have received some factual history of new construction and major renovations in. the neighborhood and information on the existing authority of the Board through the Certificate of Appropriateness process.. Also, rather than responding to statements such as: " I want the character of the CC neighborhood preserved ", it would be more helpful for the discussion tonight, if residents responded to statements such as: "I believe newly constructed homes that are architecturally appropriate and compatible with older homes have a positive impact on the neighborhood ". or "Based on historical evidence and -the city's research, I do hot believe that the character of the neighborhood is endangered and I am not willing to unnecessarily forfeit my rights by banning new construction and. major renovation on my property ". Responses to these statements would have been insightful. In closing - One neighbor's nostalgic fondness for old houses does not justify confiscating significant ownership control of another neighbor's home. I am asking this city council to support all revisions to the Plan of Treatment proposed by the Heritage Preservation Board except the provisions which ban new home construction and which ban major renovations.

Attest: ADOPTED this 15th day of April, 2008. Debra A. Mangen, City Clerk James B. Hovland, Mayor STATE OF MINNESOTA ) COUNTY OF HENNEPIN ) SS CITY OF EDINA ) CERTIFICATE OF CITY CLERK I, the undersigned duly appointed and acting City Clerk for the City of Edina do hereby certify that the attached and foregoing City Council Minutes is a true and correct copy of the Resolution duly adopted by the Edina City Council at its regular meeting of March 18, 2008, and as recorded in the Minutes of said regular meeting. WITNESS, my hand and seal of said City this day of 2008. Debra A. Mangen, City Clerk 111 O Q Edina Country Club District Plan..of Treatment REVISED PLANNING OBJECTIVE The primary objective of the Country Club Heritage Landmark District is preservation of the existing historic house facades and streetscapes. Certificates of Appropriateness will be required for demolition, moving buildings, and new construction within the district. By ordinance, the Heritage Preservation Board is responsible for approving Certificates of Appropriateness for work in the district that requires. a city. permit. In fulfillment of this responsibility, the City has adopted the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties as the basis for the Board's design review decisions. The preferred treatment for heritage preservation resources in the Country Club District is rehabilitation, which is defined as the act or process of making possible a compatible use for a property through repair, alterations, and additions while preserving those portions or features which convey its historical, cultural, or architectural values. SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR'S STANDARDS The Secretary of the Interior's standards for rehabilitation are neither technical nor prescriptive, but are intended to promote responsible preservation practices. They are regulatory only with respect to Certificates of Appropriateness for demolition and new construction; for work that is not subject to design review, they are advisory. The standards for rehabilitation a re: a) A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. b) The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided. c) Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken. d) Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved. 1 DRAFT e) Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved. f) Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. g) Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. h) Archaeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken. i) New additions, exterior alterations, or relate_ d new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work shall be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment. j) New additions and adjacent new construction will be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment will be unimpaired. CERTIFICATES OF APPROPRIATENESS A Certificate of Appropriateness will be required before any City permit is issued for the demolition and new construction of any principal dwelling or detached garage within the district boundaries. Definitions: Demolition - For purposes of design review and compliance with City Code §850.20 subd. 10, demolition shall mean the physical alteration of a building that requires a city permit and where: (a) 50% or more of the surface area of all exterior walls, in the aggregate, are removed; or (b) 50% or more of the principal roof structure is removed, changing its shape, pitch, or height; or (c) A front porch, side porch, vestibule, dormer, chimney, attached garage, or porte - cochere is removed or destroyed. 2 DRAFT This definition does not include removal of existing siding, roofing, trim, fascia, soffit, eave moldings, windows, and doors. Heritage Preservation Resource or Historic Building — Any building, site, structure, or object that has been so designated by the Heritage Preservation Board on the basis of its historic associations or historic architectural qualities which add to the significance of the district as a whole. Heritage preservation resources may lack individual distinction but must possess historic significance and integrity of those features necessary to convey their heritage preservation value. An updated inventory of heritage preservation resources in the Country Club District is maintained by the City Planner. Heritage preservation resources include those homes built from 1924 — 1944, the period when the developer enforced rigid architectural standards on new home construction through restrictive covenants. • No Certificate of Appropriateness will be approved for the demolition, in whole or in part, of any heritage preservation resource in the district unless the applicant can show that the subject property is not a heritage preservation resource, or no longer contributes to the historical significance of the district because its historic integrity has been compromised by deterioration, damage, or by inappropriate additions or alterations. • Except in extraordinary circumstances involving threats to public health or safety, no Certificate of Appropriateness will be issued for the demolition of an existing heritage preservation resource in the district without an approved design plan for new construction. DESIGN REVIEW GUIDELINES New home construction will be limited to existing residential lots and their design will be compatible with the original (1924 -1944) Country Club District deed restrictions relating to architecture. The following guidelines generally reflect the principles of the deed restrictions and will be applied by the Heritage Preservation Board to design review of plans for new houses: • Size, Scale & Massing - New homes should be compatible in size, scale, massing, orientation, setback, color, and texture with historic buildings in the district constructed prior to 1945. Facades should be architecturally similar to existing historic homes and visually relate to the historic facades of nearby homes; radically contrasting fagade designs will not be allowed. Entrances, porches, and other projections should relate to the pattern of existing adjacent historic homes and respect the rhythm and continuity of similar features along the street. Roof forms should be consistent with typical roof forms of existing historic homes in terms of pitch, orientation, and complexity. New homes 3 DRAFT should be constructed to a height compatible with existing adjacent historic homes, and the maximum height of new construction should be within 10% of the average height of existing homes on adjacent lots, or the average of the block measured from the original surface grade to, the highest part of the roof. • Exterior Finishes - Traditional materials and_ exterior finishes (horizontal lap siding, stucco, brick, false half- timbering,, wood shakes, stone) are recommended for use on facades which are visible from the street. The use of non - traditional materials (such as Hardi -Plank siding and steel roofing) should be considered on a case -by -case basis; imitative wood or masonry finishes should duplicate the size, shape, color, and texture of materials historically used in the District. Aluminum and vinyl siding are not appropriate for street facades. • Accessory Mechanical Equipment - Mechanical equipment, solar panels, air conditioners, satellite dishes, and antennae should be concealed whenever possible or placed in an inconspicuous location so as not to intrude or detract from historic facades and streetscapes. • Decks & Accessory Structures - Contemporary designs are acceptable for decks and accessory structures so long as they are not visible from the street. • Landscaping Elements - Landscaping such as retaining walls, planters, fences, planting beds, and walkways, should be visually compatible with the historic character of the district in size, scale, material, texture, and color. Retaining walls should follow the grade of the lot and blend with the historic streetscape. . • Impervious Surfaces - Construction of large areas of impervious surface for driveways, patios, and-off-street parking should be discouraged in favor of permeable pavement systems and other "green" -alternatives to solid concrete, brick, or bituminous paving. • Building Code Requirements - Building code requirements should be complied with in such a manner that the architectural character of the new home is compatible with the historic character of the neighborhood. • Year Built Identification - New homes should be clearly identified as such by means of a plaque or inscription (to be placed on an exterior surface) bearing the year of construction. GARAGES Modernistic designs for new detached garages will be discouraged. New detached garages should match the architectural style of the house on the 6 . same lot as well as the historic character of the neighborhood. The following guidelines will be applied to design review of plans for new garages: • The new garage should be subordinate to the house. The preferred placement is at the rear of the lot or set back from the front of the house to minimize the visual impact on adjacent homes and streetscapes. Front facing attached garages are discouraged. No new detached garage should be taller, longer, or wider than the house on the same lot. The roofline should have a maximum height within 10% of the average height of existing detached garages on adjacent lots, or the average of the block. • Undecorated exterior walls longer than 16 feet should be avoided on elevations visible from the street or adjacent properties. • New garages should be clearly identified as such by means of a plaque or inscription (to be placed on an exterior surface) bearing the year of construction. DRIVEWAYS • Driveways should be compatible in width and material with historic driveways in the district and should be designed in such a manner that they do not radically change, obscure, or destroy the historic character - defining spatial organization and landscape features of residential lots, yards, and streetscapes. New curb -cuts should be avoided whenever possible. CITY RESPONSIBILITIES • The City will develop and implement plans for the preservation, maintenance, and replacement of all public infrastructure within the district, including streets, trees, sidewalks, street lighting, signs, parks, and open space areas that give the neighborhood its distinguishing character. • The distinguishing original qualities and historic character of the district will not be damaged or destroyed as a result of any undertaking funded or assisted by the City. The removal or alteration of any historic building or landscape feature should be avoided whenever possible. VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE • The City will promote voluntary compliance with historic preservation standards for the rehabilitation of individual historic properties by encouraging repairs, additions, or alterations which make possible an efficient contemporary use of older homes in the district while preserving those features that are .historically and architecturally significant. R • Although not ordinarily subject to Certificates of Appropriateness, small additions or minor alterations should be done in such a manner that they do not destroy historically significant architectural features. New additions should be differentiated from historic architecture and designed to be compatible with the size, scale, color, material, and character of the property. NATURAL DISASTERS • When historic properties are impacted by man -made or natural disasters, every reasonable effort will be made to avoid total loss. If demolition must occur, historic buildings should be recorded so that a body of information about them (photographs, drawings, and written data) will be preserved for the benefit of the public. DISTRICT RE- SURVEY • The City will arrange for a re- survey of the Edina Country Club District every ten years to document changes in the appearance and historic integrity of historic properties; to revise the list of heritage preservation resources and non - heritage preservation resources present within the district boundaries; and to revise the district plan of treatment as needed. The next re- survey will take place circa 2017. 2 EDINA COUNTRY CLUB DISTRICT 2007 SURVEY DEFINITION OF TERMS: What is a survey? In heritage preservation, the term survey refers to the process of identifying and gathering information about the heritage resources within a specified area. It includes the physical search for and recording of buildings, structures, etc. as well as planning and background research. The raw survey data are evaluated against established criteria for historical, architectural, and cultural significance. The organized compilation of information generated by a survey is called an inventory. What is a heritage resource? The City Code defines heritage resource as any building, site, structure, object, or district that has value in relation to history, architecture, archaeology, engineering, or culture. What is a heritage landmark district? A heritage landmark district is a group of related heritage resources that physically comprise a specific environment. For a district to qualify for the zoning classification Edina Heritage Landmark District, it must meet one of the ordinance criteria for heritage landmark eligibility by being associated with an important historic context (i.e., a theme, event, or pattern of events) and by retaining integrity of those features necessary to convey its significance. What is the district plan of treatment? The Country Club District was designated a Heritage Landmark in 2003. At that time, the city approved a plan of treatment, which was prepared and adopted by the Heritage Preservation Board. The plan of treatment established priorities for dealing with heritage resources in the district and presented specific guidelines for reviewing applications for Certificates of Appropriateness. 1 What is a Certificate of Appropriateness? A Certificate of Appropriateness or COA is required before any city permit can be issued for demolition, new construction, moving a building, or excavation in an archaeological area within a designated Edina Heritage Landmark. Applications for COAs are reviewed by the Heritage Preservation Board, which bases its design review decisions on the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, which are the same standards used by the National Register of Historic Places program. The standards for preservation are neither technical nor prescriptive, but are intended to promote responsible preservation practices. COUNTRY CLUB DISTRICT TIMELINE: 1906: J. C. Nichols Co. announces plans to develop the Country Club District in Brush Creek Valley, Kansas City; it is the first large master - planned community in the United States 1922: Inspired by Kansas City Country Club, Thorpe Bros. Realty Co. of Minneapolis begins to acquire land and develop plans for the Country Club District in Edina 1922 -24: District platted into 585 home sites and infrastructure construction begins; by 1931, 309 homes have been built and Thorpe will have invested more than $1 million in the project 1924: First lots sold and homes constructed in the Brown section of the district; the developer's architectural standards are enforced through restrictive covenants that do not expire until 1964 1926 -28: To help overcome slow initial sales, Thorpe builds eight model homes designed by Minneapolis architects Jacob J. Liebenberg and Seeman Kaplan 1929: Village of Edina adopts its first zoning ordinance, based in part on the Thorpe Bros. plan for Country Club 1930 -41: Edina Country Club Association reviews all plans for new houses in the district 1944: Thorpe Bros. announces completion of Country Club development (July 1); home constructed after this date are not subject to restrictive covenants 1974: City of Edina adopts its first heritage preservation ordinance and establishes the Heritage Preservation Board 1980: The Country Club District is nominated to the National Register of Historic Places by the Minnesota Historical Society; the nomination is approved by the National Park Service 3 2002: Edina Heritage Landmark zoning created by amending City Code §850.20 2003: Edina .Country Club District rezoned as a Heritage Landmark District with same boundaries as 1980 National Register district; plan of treatment adopted (February 18) 2007: Re- survey of Country Club District begins (January); City Council places 1 -year moratorium on issuing demolition permits for homes in Country Club (April 17) 11 COUNTRY CLUB DISTRICT SURVEY OBJECTIVES: 1) Carry out a detailed inspection of all 555 homes as well as city parks, open space areas, and streets within the district boundaries 2) Assemble existing information, including both information generated by the 1980 National Register survey, about the Country Club District, assess its reliability, and identify information gaps 3) Synthesize the information from property tax records, building permits, historic maps and photographs, back issues of the Crier and other periodicals, and previous surveys with reference to the changes which have occurred at individual properties 4) Reclassify the houses in the district according to the style categories for architectural classification adopted by the Heritage Preservation Board 5) Determine how the different styles of houses are distributed within the district 6) Establish the current condition and rehabilitation potential of the houses and streetscapes 7) Identify specific ways to maintain and enhance the historic character of the district within the framework of the district plan of treatment E A "SNAPSHOT" OF THE COUNTRY CLUB DISTRICT: • Of the 555 single- family homes in the district, 507 were designed and built under the terms of the Thorpe Bros. restrictive covenants (1924 to 1944); most of the homes constructed between 1945 and 1958 also show the influence of the original Thorpe Bros. architectural standards • 330 of the homes in the district have attached garages; 223 have detached (freestanding) garages; two homes have both attached and detached garages; 165 of the garages were built after 1960, including 34 new attached garages • Additions larger than 500 square feet in area have been made to 125 homes in the district since the 1940s (pre -1949 building permit and property tax records are incomplete) • The median Country Club house's "footprint" (i.e., the area covered by the house if viewed from directly overhead) was 1430 square feet in 2007 • 550 of the 554 homes recorded by the 1980 National Register survey are still standing and recognizable • The predominant architectural styles are Colonial Revival and Tudor; many of the houses are actually hybrids of two or more period styles; only about one in ten were designed by architects • The unique rhythm of the streetscapes in the Country Club is primarily the result of the developer's original plan, which forced builders to place the houses off - center on the more -or -less uniform sized lots, with only slight variations in setbacks and building height; the landscape plan for the district exemplifies the principles of the Garden City Movement in urban planning and shows the influence of the nationally prominent landscape architects Arthur R. Nichols and Anthony Morell • The design and placement of the sidewalks, boulevards, streets, median islands, and residential driveways reflect the original plan of development and are historic landscape features worthy of preservation in their own right 0 • Overall, the district is in an outstanding state of preservation, with very little non - historic in -fill housing and an extremely high proportion of historic to non - historic houses • Significant numbers of Country Club homeowners have expressed interest in maintaining and enhancing their historic properties - not only have they been good stewards, they have also demonstrated that investment in historic home rehabilitation and restoration pays. 6 MAJOR FINDINGS 2007 COUNTRY CLUB DISTRICT SURVEY: • The Country Club District derives its primary significance and heritage preservation value from being a planned suburban neighborhood; the district reflects developer Samuel S. Thorpe's vision of a self - contained, low- density, diversified "garden suburb" with well - designed traditional homes for upper to middle -class families. • Secondarily, the district represents a significant concentration of houses and streetscapes which are united historically by their distinguishing architectural characteristics. • The identity of the district results from the visual sense of the overall historic environment that reflects the original design plan conceived and put into place by the developer Samuel Thorpe between 1921 and 1944. • While lacking individual significance, the historic homes collectively represent a distinguishable and historically significant entity (the district would continue to meet both the National Register and the Edina Heritage Landmark District eligibility criteria if all of the houses lacked individual significance as architectural works.) • Well over 90% of the homes in the district contribute to the historic character and significance of the district as a whole. • With few exceptions, the historic facades visible from the street show little evidence of major alterations and are substantially unchanged from their original appearance. • A majority of the historic houses in the district have undergone some kind of exterior remodeling, with most of the new work located on the side and rear elevations. • The 2002 amendments to the City's heritage preservation code have effectively discouraged teardowns of historically significant houses and eliminated the threat of multiple -lot "McMansion" type redevelopment in n. the district; the revised code has also been effective in requiring new construction (4 houses and 33 detached garages) to be architecturally compatible with older homes and streetscapes. 9 WHY PRESERVE THE COUNTRY CLUB DISTRICT? 1) Historic buildings and neighborhoods have special cultural and economic value and therefore should be retained as functional parts of the Twenty- First Century city. 2) The historic plan of the Country Club neighborhood, the architectural character of the house facades, and the ambiance of the streetscapes in the district give it its special character and cultural depth. 3) Maintaining, rehabilitating, and restoring older homes can save energy, time, money, and raw materials. 10 THORPE BROS. DEED RESTRICTIONS RELATING TO THE ARCHITECTURE OF HOUSES BUILT IN THE DISTRICT BETWEEN 1924 AND 1944 • Houses were required to face the street; a house on a corner lot had to face the same street as the "inside" house next door • Setbacks: ' 30 feet from the front lot line to the front foundation wall (excluding porches); 3 feet to the side lot line, 7 feet from the side of a corner house to the street • No house, including any attached garage and porches, could exceed 60% of lot coverage, nor could it have a width greater than 80% of the distance between the side lot lines • Front porches, balconies, etc. could not project more than 12 feet from the front of the house; on houses occupying corer lots, side porches could not extend father than 10 feet • No bay window, dormer, stairway landing, cornice, or other projecting feature could project more than 18 inches from the front and sides of a house • All outbuildings were required to "correspond in style and architecture to the residence to which such buildings are appurtenant" and for houses on corner lots, detached garages had to be located within 30 feet of the side of the house farthest from the adjoining side street • Detached garages and outbuildings could not occupy more than 60% of the width of the rear lot line • Exterior fuel storage tanks, signs greater than 480 square inches, and "objectionable" trees and shrubs were prohibited • Concrete ramps or ribbons from the street to the sidewalk were required for all driveways • Maximum height for fences was 4 feet 6 inches from grade, with no walls over 3 feet above grade on front yards 11 • House foundation walls could not exceed 3 feet 6 inches (measured from the elevation of the curb at the front lot line) unless the "natural grade" of the lot was greater (in which case the natural grade could be the finish grade) • No walls, steps, or other construction (excluding sidewalks) could encroach on the boulevard • There were no restrictions on the style of houses — however, the covenants did require that the plans be submitted to the developer and /or the district homeowners association for approval prior to construction 12 COUNTRY CLUB DISTRICT NUMBER OF HOMES BUILT PER YEAR 1924 23 1944 0 2005 1 1925 64 1945 5 2006 1 1926 41 1946 3 2007 2 1927 48 1947 2 TOTAL HOMES BUILT 555 1928 28 1948 5 1924 -29 235 built 42% 1929 31 1949 1 1930 44 1950 6 1930 -39 228 built 41% 1931 19 1951 6 1932 10 1955 1 1940 -44 44 built 8% Heritage 507 91% 1933 8 1956 1 Resources 1934 22 1957 1 1935 27 1966 1 1945 -59 31 built 1936 48 1972 2 1960's 1 built 1937 26 1973 1 1970's 4 built 1938 18 1977 1 1980's 1 built 1939 6 1986 1 1990's 3 built 1940 18 1990 2 2000's 8 built 1941 19 1998 1 Non - Heritage Resources 48 9% 1942 5 2000 2 1943 2 2003 2 PC Meeting March 26, 2008 Revisions to the Plan of Treatment/Country Club District, Edina Staff Presentation With a power point presentation Ms. Repya briefly explained the history of the Country Club District and highlighted the proposed. revisions to the Plan of Treatment.

Commission Comments /Questions Commissioner Grabiel asked Ms. Repya if the.original' plat of the district had conditions /covenants, and if so, what became -of them.. -Ms. Repya responded the original plat did contain restrictive covenants and -they expired in 1964. Continuing, Commissioner Grobiel,asked if staff has found a financial benefit to properties in the-district because of the historic designation. Mr. Vogel responded"in th e aff mative, adding it has, been found that in designated historic districts`the value of those'properties has increased between 1 and 20 percent. The increase in value is usually immediate,and positive. a/Commissioner Staunton questioned if newly constructed homes would be utomatically designated. Mr. Vogel responded if a home in the district is razed and,�new home constructed in its place the new home would not be designated as historic; however the new house would have to meet Plan of Treatment requirements. Mr. Vogel /further explained no home in the Country Club District is individually designated. The - entire district or plat(s) is what is historically significant, adding its one designated district with 550 parts. Commissioner Staunton asked Mr.Vogel if there are any resources available to residents of this district when they upgrade their home, noting upgrading a home in an historic district is financially different than upgrading a home elsewhere. Mr. Vogel said at this time there are no tax incentives available to residents of the district when they upgrade; however, the legislature may be considering such a move. Chair Lonsbury told the Commission the Heritage Preservation Board is seeking Commission support for the proposed revisions to the Plan of Treatment as they move forward to the Council for their approval. Commissioner Scherer moved that the Edina Planning Commission supports the revisions to the Plan of Treatment based on the following findings: • The great majority of the houses in the/ district (over 90 %) were built between 1924 and 1944, when Thorpe ontrolled the Country Club development and enforced rigid architectural standards on new home construction through restrictive covenants. • The most important threat to the historic integrity of the,Country Club District comes from teardowns -specifically, the demolition. of historic homes and the construction ofarchitecturally inappropriate new homes. ' • Overall, the level of preservation of historic facades in the district is outstanding, particularly in comparison with other-neighborhoods of similarly -aged homes (including those in historic districts) in the Twin Cities. • The data at hand show that historic facades in the district are, by and large, intact. • The loss of historic integrity caused by inappropriate remodeling and additions has been proportionally small — less -than 5% of the homes more than 50 years- old have been torn down. or "remodeled" beyond recognition. • With respect to additions over their lifetimes, most of the homes in the district have been added to — the survey indicates that structural additions more than fifty,years old often reflect an important aspect of the. pattern of residential,development in the district. •� The district contains a small number of buildings and open spaces that are not historically significant and therefore would not be considered heritage preservation resources; and • The,survey data demonstrate that the typical Country Club homeowner has been a good steward of neighborhood heritage. Commissioner Fischer seconded the motion. All voted aye; motion carried. April 10th, 2008 Mayor James Hovland - City Hall Edina Dear Mayor Hovland, I have attached a copy of my letter to you dated February 19th, 2008. I am very concerned about the problems I am experiencing trying to sell my house because of the restrictions placed . upon it. It is a three bedroom, one bathroom upstairs, no air conditioning, one garage house in need of a total renovation /tear - down. The base size.is�.approximately 793 square feet. Prospective buyers have been 'put off' because of these restrictions. I am almost 73 years old and need to move to a Townhome where it would be easier for me to. live. The taxes would also be less. I now am:,-responsible for over $8,000 this year. The value over my home has been decreased, however the taxes have risen this year over $1200. I do feel it is so unfair for the Preservation Board to restrict me selling this "old house ", even though it no way comes up to "The Country Club" standard. It even has aluminium siding which must have been put on in early sixties, which I now understand is prohibited to -day. Your attention to my plight would be appreciated. Yours sincerely, 5z Sheilagh Ziegeweid Planning Dept. NATIONAL April 9, 2008 TRUST FOR HISTORIC The Honorable James Hovland PRESERVATION" and Edina City Council Members Richard Moe Edina City Hall 4801 West 401h Street PRESIDENT Edina, MN 55424 Dear Mayor Hovland and City Council Members: The National Trust for Historic Preservation has been at the forefront of a nationwide effort to combat inappropriate and insensitive new development in response to the residential teardown epidemic. The proposed Plan of Treatment for the Country Club District in Edina represents an excellent opportunity for your community. to adopt guidelines that will help preserve the character and qualities of this landmark historic district. I am writing to urge you to adopt the plan as proposed at your upcoming meeting. As a former resident of Edina, I applaud your decision to list the County Club neighborhood as an Edina Heritage Landmark. As you know, a listing on the National Register of Historic Places offers recognition of the significance of the Country Club residences, but it provides no protection of these resources from significant alteration, demolition, or inappropriately scaled new construction. Protection of the properties . within the District occurs primarily at the local level as a result of local landmark designation and review by the Heritage Preservation Board (HPB). While Edina has general guidelines in place to assist the Board in their review of proposed changes in the historic district, I firmly believe the proposed changes to the Plan are necessary to make the design review process more clear and effective for both residents and the members of the HPB, The Plan of Treatment represents a critical step forward to address concerns about inappropriate infill construction in the Country Club neighborhood, and brings Edina's process in line with other municipalities across the country seeking to maintain the character and quality of properties in historic districts and neighborhoods. I strongly support your ongoing efforts to protect the Country Club district and encourage you to continue with additional measures in the future.. Many inner -ring suburbs across the country are utilizing a variety of approaches to battle the impact of teardowns in their communities. They are creating expanded historic districts, establishing conservation districts, enacting demolition fees or taxes, and changing their zoning codes (through such methods as the adoption of development 1785 Massachusetts Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20036 0 202.588.6105 F 202.588.6082 www.PreservationNation.org The Honorable James Hovland and Edina City Council Members April 9, 2008 Page 2 standards, downzoning, or overlay zoning) to better address the challenges of teardown.s and inappropriate infill construction in their neighborhoods.

Property values in historic districts have been found to increase more rapidly, and hold value consistently, which contributes positively to property values as a whole. The Plan of Treatment ensures that alterations protect the visual characteristics that draw buyers to the District. As District property owners alter homes to meet their changing needs, the Plan of Treatment will similarly preserve the District's integrity for all property owners.

This letter follows from that conversation, and summarizes my thoughts based upon 25 years of observation as a resident of the Country Club District. Recognize that I have no special knowledge of the City of Edina's administrative structure, nor of the laws and stat;wtes that enable and govern it. Whether the special qualities that distinguish the Country Club neighborhood as an historical place are maintained, or are not maintained, is a matter of policy on which reasonable people may differ. I, myself, began with the premise that the maintenance and restoration of those qualities was a desirable and important goal, and I have come to the conclusion that this end is unobtainable within existing arrangements. Simply put, th-e goal, is u.3 t na —thy.- inconsistent with self - interest-rsa:se`d decisions by individual property owners, and with the administrative actions of existing city departments and agencies. Without significant change in the oversight of the neighborhood,-talking of its preservation a.s °an historic place is empty rhetoric, and should be recognized as such. I assume that my experience is a fair representation of neighborhood change over the past 25 years. A brief rendering of that experience follows: - A notable loss early in that period was the closing of the Wooddale School, which took place despite vigorous neighborhood opposition. Pdo officially sanctioned argument for its preservation as part of an historical place was available. - A cautionary event of about that time was the cons- r»cticn of a contemporary style house bn- -Casco Avenue. Since vacant lots were, in effect, nonexistent, and demolition of houses in that day and age was inconceivable, the . house was not a threatening precedent, but it did suggest the limits to which property owners' self- interest might take them. - Also in this period the boulevard elms were succumbing to Dutch elm disease and other causes. Replacement was hit and miss. I have counted some 10 varieties of trees that have been replanted.. I remember meeting with the City Forester for guidance, and being told that he had no use for boulevard trees. -2- iiie VV %- dale School was demolished and replaced by a multiuse park area that it is charitable to think of as a public embarrassment. Through traffic increased over the years, and because it moved more rapidly than local traffic, the character of neighborhood traffic was qualitatively changed. The 1993 Traffic Project purported to address the issue by reducing through traffic, but, in fact, only redistributed it. In the case of Drexel Avenue this meant a radical increase in fast moving autos. When I discussed the speeding problem with the City Police Department I was told all of the reasons that nothing could be done. - Prior to 7.990, owners,maintained their property, but major additions were uncommon. After that time there was an influx of new owners and the old tradition was replaced by one in which major additions were less the exception, and more the rule; this in a neighborhood which was already deliberately laid out with substantial homes on modestly sized lots. With the flourishing economy of recent years; so much wealth flowed into the neighborhood that it created a whole new sense of possible actions in terms of property improvements. The threat to existing neighborhood values has become obvious. Self interest and even best intentions carry no guarantee for the exercise of good judgment and appropriate taste in the context of an historic place. In the past 5 years there have been major additions built or begun at 4602 Drexel, 4604 Drexel, 4608 Drexel, 4607 Wooddale, and 4609 Wooddale, with the consequent noise and traffic disruption on a continuing basis. At least 4 of these would have benefited from some oversight in the context of their relationship to the neighborhood. When I raised questions about the propriety of certain specifics with City Planning Department, I.sometimes had a sympathetic ear, but was always told that there was no violation of ordinances. In general, lots, excepting front yards, have become increasingly all structure and concrete slab, and back yards have -tended to become vestigial. Where formerly front yard landscaping was conventional, if unimaginative, now exotic landscaping is being introduced. Next owners will become sensitive to their lack of additional space and will want to buy and tear down neighboring houses for their swimming pools, tennis courts, etc. There is no real need to continue this litany. What this experience tells me is that the self interest of individual property owners and the functioning of the existing City administrative structure are not going to maintain the special qualities that distinguish this neighborhood. Radical sudden change will be avoided; but a gradua -1 erosion to a similar end will not be. What is obviously needed, if such change is to be not only halted, but reversed, is an institution within the City's structure that speaks directly, coherently, and authoritatively for the special distinguishing historical qualities of the neighborhood; an institu.�ion that gives these values a legitimate voice. The Heritage Preservation Board is an obvious candidate for this role. Thus I would propose that its powers be expanded to include: approval or denial of all substantial residential projects, such as major additions, major external renovations, demolitions and rebuildings, as well as all major public works projects, such as traffic control, park, street, boulevard and sidewalk redesign; and moreover that they have advisory and guidance obligations in residential landscape redesign, exterior redecoration of residences, and on the maintainence of boulevards, parks, easements, sidewalks, and traffic islands. (The fact that these lesser neighborhood aspects are more readily reversible does not diminish their potential for harm in terms of both precedent and substance.) This proposal appears to be more Draconian than it.is. Firstly, we are only talking about an area of about one fourth square mile, with some 500 houses, most occupants of which are explicitly or implicitly supportive of the historic qualities of the neighborhood. Secondly, the intent is not to prevent improvements in the neighborhood, but rather to assure that they be done with care and oversight within the context of the neighborhood's special' historical qualities. (It would be difficult to argue that this approach is prejudicial to property values.) Thirdly, it would be my contention that once the intent to preserve values is legitimized and made substantive, then a more constrained sense of possibility will quickly be assumed by property owners and city officials. Even if you disagree with the above arguments and conclusions, I ask that you read them carefully. I am apart from City affairs, so I provide an independent perspective. In my 25 years as a resident, I have been witness to one third of the neighborhood's lifetime. I have viewed some of its changes with concern. This letter derives from my observations and concerns. I have endeavored to present my arguments and conclusions clearly and rationally, and I would hope that they are of some meaning and benefit to you.

It makes improvements to the old guidelines that are reasonable for residents and straightforward for the Planning Department staff. The changes will allow the.Heritage Preservation Board to actually pursue their charge of "preserving the existing historic house facades and streetscapes." The old guidelines tied the hands of the HPB and made it impossible for them to pursue this stated objective. Under the old guidelines, - demolition of a historic home required no explanation, - modern architectural styles were discourged, but allowed, - a total exterior makeover didn't require a COA if 50% of the walls were left standing, - large new front entryways that disrupted the uniform set -back on a block were allowed, - height was not specifically addressed, - elevations detailing lot grade and roof lines were not considered, - there was no process for addressing construction that did not follow approved plans. The time and talents of HPB volunteers and City staff were often wasted under the first Plan of Treatment. Neighborhood residents were frustrated by an ineffective process that allowed several new structures that detract from the historic integrity of the neighborhood and from the value of neighboring houses. The new Plan -of Treatment replaces these loopholes with clear language and uniform procedures. It is a tremendous step forward in responsible yet reasonable preservation of this historic district. I hope that the Planning Commission fully endorses this proposal to the City Council.

We have been closely following the process over the past year or so, and greatly appreciate the countless hours that the HPB has put forth in order to add clarity and strengthen the original guidelines. One major concern with the original guidelines was that semi- teardowns (less than 50 percent of the exterior structure removed) were exempt from review by the HPB. The new Plan of Treatment more thoroughly defines demolition, and provides the HPB with the ability to fulfill its planning objective to preserve existing historic home facades and streetscapes. Under the new guidelines, homeowners would be able to make changes, but a review by the HPB (in the circumstances outlined) will ensure that compatibility within the district will be maintained. An additional concern with the original guidelines was in regards to new home construction within the district. We live directly across the street from a newly constructed home that is out of scale with the neighboring homes, and is significantly larger in terms of square footage and roof height. The HPB's revised guidelines for new home construction provides guidance to homeowners and builders in maintaining compatibility in size, scale and massing with historic buildings in the district, yet allowing for reasonable homeowner flexibility in style and other elements. As with the new garages, the new guidelines give some leeway to increase the height of the new home, but will not allow for new homes to tower over existing adjacent structures. Lastly, while we realize that the issue of teardowns of historic properties may be contentious, the new guidelines put what we believe are reasonable stipulations on the process whereby the need for complete demolition of a historic property (due to irreparable deterioration, damage, or inappropriate alteration or addition) must be met before a Certificate of Appropriateness is granted. In revising the Plan of Treatment, we feel that the HPB has objectively considered resident input, and has provided ample opportunity for resident review through public notice of the open house on February 25, 2008, articles in the Edina Sun Current, and posting of the HPB meeting minutes /meeting schedule on the City's website. The revised document is, we believe, a fair balance between the homeowners' right to upgrade their homes and the City's and neighborhood's desire to preserve the historical integrity of the district. 1 _ 2. _.

It is reasonable and thoughtful and has made every effort to address the concerens of both sides of the aisle! I regret the contentious enviornment this past year which has been prompted by differing opinions of changes in the Country Club neighborhood. I have lived in it nearly 25 years and regret the dissention. The positive results is that the citizens are taking an active part in their local government and that, I feel, is a good thing. We are all entitled to hold an opinion and our voices should be heard. We must respect the wants and needs of individuals but not at the expense of compromising the good of the whole. It is my hope that the Planning Board members (as well as the City Council members) will approve of the revised version written by the HPB members who have worked so hard for the future of the Country Club neighborhood which we all hold to be dear.

MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council Gordon Hughes, City Manager FROM: Jerome P. Gilligan DATE: April 10, 2008 :)J> OORSEY DORSEY & WHITNEY LLP RE: Proposed Issuance of Revenue Bonds by the City of Minneapolis for Fairview Health Services At its meeting on April 15th the City Council will hold a public hearing on a proposal from Fairview Health Services ( "Fairviev,/') that the City consent to the issuance by the City of Minneapolis of tax - exempt revenue bonds under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.152 to 469.165, a portion of which will be used to refund bonds previously issued by the Minnesota Agricultural and Economic Development Board in 1997 and by the City of Minneapolis in 2005, to finance or refinance improvements at Fairview Southdale Hospital The City has previously consented to Minneapolis issuing revenue bonds under this authority on behalf of Fairview to finance improvements to Fairview Southdale Hospital. The City has also previously approved other cities issuing revenue bonds to finance facilities of other non - profit corporations in the City. Federal law for tax - exempt bonds requires that the City hold a public hearing on the proposed financing and refunding prior to giving such approval. The bonds would be issued as part of a larger issue of bonds to be issued in one or more series by Minneapolis to finance projects at University of Minnesota Medical Center, Fairview in Minneapolis, and at other Fairview hospitals in Burnsville, Hibbing, Red Wing and Wyoming, and to refund the 1997 bonds of the Minnesota Agricultural and Economic Board and bonds issued by the City of Minneapolis on behalf of Fairview in 2004 and 2005. The bonds being refunded financed or refinanced improvements at other Fairview hospitals in addition to Fairview Southdale Hospital. The maximum aggregate principal amount of the bonds is $850 million, and of this amount approximately $85 million will be with respect to bonds which financed improvements to Fairview Southdale Hospital. The debt service on the bonds will be payable solely from payments to be made by Fairview, and the City will not have any liability with respect to the bonds and will not be required to enter into any agreements with respect to the bonds. Fairview will pay all City expenses with respect to the bonds. A representative from Fairview Southdale Hospital will be in attendance at the April 15th meeting to respond to any questions. Following the public hearing the City Council wishes to approve the issuance of the bonds by the City of Minneapolis it should adopt a resolution approving the issuance of the bonds by the City of Minneapolis.

Subsection 1105.01 of Edina Code is hereby amended to read as follows: 1105.01 Sewer Availability Charge. The Metropolitan Council Environmental Services has determined to reserve unused capacity in the metropolitan disposal system (as defined in M.S. 473.121, Subd. 4) for local government units in which new connections will be made to that system, and to allocate the debt service costs of the unused capacity among the local government units. For the City to pay such costs allocated to it, the City needs to establish sewer service availability charges ( "SAC') for all connections made directly or indirectly to the metropolitan disposal system. Section 2. Paragraph A of Subd. 1 of Subsection 1105.01 of Edina Code is hereby amended to read as follows: A. Each dwelling unit located within a single dwelling unit building, double dwelling unit building, residential townhouse, apartment or condominium shall comprise one SAC unit, or a lesser amount as determined by the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services .

The seaneetien- number of Sewer Availability Charge (SAC) units determined by the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services will be used to determine the number of REC units for various public, commercial, industrial institutional, residential, and multifamily residential facilities. If, after the initial connection charges are paid, additional building permits or new sewer connections are made, or when an increase of wastewater flow into the municipal sanitary sewer system is determined by the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services, charges shall be recalculated and any additional charges shall be paid. In determining the amount of the charge, the Council may consider all costs of the construction, reconstruction, establishment, operation, maintenance, repair, depreciation, and replacement of the City.water system or sewer system, and of improvements, enlargements, and extensions necessary to serve the City adequately, including the principal and interest to become due on obligations issued or to be issued therefore.

From: John Keprios, Director Consent VN Park & Recreation Department Information Only ❑ Date: April 15, 2008 Mgr. Recommends ❑ To HRA ® To Council Subject: Change Order #I Centennial Lakes ® Motion Centrum Building Roof ❑ Resolution ❑ Ordinance ❑ Discussion RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends upgrading the roofing material for the Centennial Lakes Centrum Building roofing project from a 40 -year Landmark Plus model shingle to a 50 -year Independence model shingle for an additional $8,400.00. INFOBACKGROUND: On January 2, 2008, the Council awarded the $36,252.00 bid from Dercon Construction Services for replacement of the roofing material on the Centennial Lakes Park Centrum Building at 7499 France Avenue South. This project is being funded by the 2008 Capital Improvement Plan, which is budgeted for $175,000.00. Original specifications called for a 40 -year high definition architectural asphalt shingle, which comes with a 1 year contractor's warranty and a 40 -year manufacturer's warranty. As you may recall, there was concern expressed by the Council about the aesthetics of these replacement high definition architectural asphalt shingle. As a result, Manager of Centennial Lakes Park, Tom Shirley, and I met with the vendor and inquired about a higher grade architectural asphalt shingle that will give the roof an even greater depth and appeal. The Independence style asphalt shingle, made by Certainteed Company, is defined by Certainteed as: "Beautiful laminated, randomly placed tabs are woven to display a one -of -a- kind design. The smooth surface and the random tabs combine to give the classic roofing style. Random laminated tabs for added depth, a look that will provide curb appeal for your home, from any angle. " The Independence style shingle comes with a 50 -year manufacturer's warranty and a 12- year contractor's warranty for total replacement (parts and labor). The Landmark shingle came with only a 40 -year manufacturer's warranty and a one -year contractor's warranty. Attached to this Report/Recommendation are color copies of the two different shingle styles for comparison. Tom Shirley and I both feel that the upgrade will give the Centrum Building roof the depth and appearance that we require. Being that the change order is in excess of 10% of the original contract; the change order requires City Council approval.

Recommends ❑ To H RA ® To Council Subject: Resolution authori zi ng the City of Edina Fire A cti on ® M oti on D epartment to enter i nto a Joint and Cooperative Resolution Agreement to lease Self - ❑ Ordinance Contained Breathing Apparatus(SCBA) with ❑ Discussion other ci tes and fire departments from the Hennepin County Fire Chiefs Association. Recommendation: I recommend that you approve the resolution authorizing the City of Edina to enter in a Joint and Cooperative Agreement with other cities and fire departments from the Hennepin County Fire Chiefs Association to lease firefighting SCBA's. Information and Background: Adopting this Resolution would allow the City of Edina to enter into a cooperative agreement with other citiesand fire departments from the Hennepin County Fire Chiefs Association to potentially lease SCBA's. This is not a commitment to enter into the potential lease program, it would allow us to look at the feasibility of a SCBA lease program and enter into the program should it be in the best interest of the City of Edina. The firefighting Self- Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) are the equipment that firefighters wear that providethem with breathing air when they enter toxicor extreme heat conditionssuch asa structurefireor other hazardous environments. This 9CBA lease program would be the first of its kind in the Country. Initially the cities of Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina and Minnetonka are expected to enter into the Joint and Cooperative Agreement. More Cities are expected to join the agreement and program. Currently each fire department in Hennepin County purchases their own 9CBA from one of several manufacturers. The current replacement schedule for most 9CBA is 15 years. Technology in 9CBA is increasing rapidly and is very expensive to maintain current safety technology. The concept of the lease program is to have one manufacturer provide 9CBA to all the fire departments. The manufacturer would provide maintenance and technological and safety upgrades to the 9CBA's. The advantages to leasing the 9CBA include; interoperability, expedited technological safety improvements to 9CBA's, improved maintenance, decreased liability and larger purchasing power to leverage a better lease. I believe the 9CBA is one of the most important pieces of protective equipment our firefighters use and it is important that we provide them with the safest equipment. Once again, this resolution is not committing the City of Edina into any lease program. It would allow us to explore the program and lease 9CBA should we decide to do so in thefuture. •r RESOLUTION 2008-42 Joint and Cooperative Agreement for the Leasing of SCBA WHEREAS, Minnesota Statute 471.59 authorizes local units of government to enter into Joint and Cooperative Agreements of governmental powers common to the contracting parties. The intent of this Agreement is to make available leased Firefighting Self - Contained Breathing Apparatus to the City of Edina.

The law provides $21.5 million to four communities nationwide to evaluate how investments in planning, infrastructure, and public education can increase rates of bicycling and walking and reduce driving. The Board of Directors of Transit for Livable Communities (TLC) is the decision - making body for the program in Minneapolis and its adjoining communities. Up to $5 million in funding is available in the current funding round. As required by the Federal Highway Administration and the Minnesota Department of Transportation, only organizations that have taxing authority are eligible for direct funding. Eligible applicants are listed on page eleven of the Request for Applications Packet. Eligible applicants include 14 municipalities, three counties, and eleven other agencies. The TLC board has selected two categories for funding in spring 2008: • Bike /Walk Streets • Livable Streets Rationale for selecting these categories is as follows: • The funding will invest in the breadth of urban infrastructure, both high - travel streets and streets with lower traffic volume, as well as off -road shortcuts and connections. • The funding will encourage maximum use of existing urban resources, creating street treatment that is safe and inviting streets for all levels of pedestrian and cyclist users. The criteria introduce innovations locally, some of which have been tested in other urban settings. The designs increase safety, creating more cyclist and pedestrian activity on well designed streets. (Studies have shown that collision rates decline with increases in the numbers of people walking or bicycling.) The designs create enhanced nonmotorized transportation options, especially for short urban trips. These short trips are the primary target of the travel mode -shift strategy of the Minneapolis pilot. Potential applicants should download all three of the following documents at this the Bike /Walk Twin Cities information page.: + Solicitation Guidelines including program overview, types of projects, specifics, and scoring criteria • NTP Grant Application Form • Project Budget Worksheet Applications are due April 29, 2008 by 5:00 PM Central Standard Time.

It has been such since December 1963. We raised three sons in this environment. As such, I believe that I speak with some authority as to the Edina Highlands neighborhood. The proposed construction plans for my neighborhood, other than necessary maintenance, is unwanted by myself and by avast majority of the residents. The proposed work is as follows (I will not dignify the project by referring to it as Improvements!): 1. Sidewalk on Aryshire Boulevard. It is unneeded and unwanted. It is said that this is a safety issue. In the forty-five years I have lived here, there have been, as far as I know, only two minor accidents. Bikers and pedestrians have co- existed without issue in the past. There is no reason why they cannot do so in the future. Sidewalk availability would invite young bikers, roller bladers; skate boarders, etc. This could jgWly cause a problem for walkers, particularly those of advanced age. The present situation allows plenty of room for bikers, etc. to maneuver around pedestrians, hence the lack of accidents in the past. To my knowledge, there has been no petition requesting a sidewalk for this area, as is required. Aryshire is classified by the City as a "residential road ". It is not a "collector road" and will not so become, in as much as the area is completely developed with no vacant lots! I repeat, a sidewalk in our neighborhood is unneeded and unwanted! 2. Ayrshire Boulevard entrance /exit onto Vernon. This proposal would detract from the attractive median (that has been maintained by the neighborhood) that sets the area apart from other Edina neighborhoods. Narrowing the road and extending the center median to Vernon would not be an improvement. The overall idea of narrowing Ayrshire is a bad idea and has a bigger potential for problems than the current situation. I repeat — two accidents in forty -five years. It is said, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it! ". Mr. James Hovland, Mayor Page Two April 1, 2008 3. Replacement of sixteen street lights. I understand that only three are of such condition that the wiring is a problem. The form of the fixture is totally adequate as is the amount of light afforded by them. We residents believe that "like for like" should be the replacement formula. Doesn't this fall under the description of normal maintenance? 4. Water and sewer line repair and maintenance. As I understand it, the repairs will take place on the east side of Lochloy. To rip up the 2/3 balance of the street is unnecessary and wasteful. The soil is predominantly clay, therefore movement is continuous and will do so for many more years. This, of course, creates problems for water and sewer line maintenance. Such will continue for many years, whether or not the street is resurfaced. Doubling the depth of the roadway to an 8 -inch depth would obviously be more expensive to excavate than the "mill and overlay" process recommended by civil engineers elsewhere. Our neighborhood streets have historically been relatively free of pothole problems and other maintenance issues. I see no reason to change a winning formula. The remaining useful life of our storm and sanitary sewer system is, we are told, about fifteen years. If that is the case, a major replacement project is in the future. Adding to the future cost by doubling the road bed to 8 inches would be poor planning and an irresponsible waste of home owners' money! In summary, we have a great neighborhood as is! Other than normal maintenance the proposed construction is wasteful, unneeded and unwanted. We neighbors are firm in our desire to maintain it, but please don't change it!

N AT I O N A L APR l t W, TRUST RECEIVES FOR BY-- HISTORIC �°--° PRESERVATION* Richard Moe PRESIDENT Dear Mayor Hovland and City Council Members: The National Trust for Historic Preservation has been at the forefront of a nationwide effort to combat inappropriate and insensitive new development in response to the residential teardown epidemic. The proposed Plan of Treatment for the Country Club District in Edina represents an excellent opportunity for your community to adopt guidelines that will help preserve the character and qualities of this landmark historic district. I am writing to urge you to adopt the plan as proposed at your upcoming meeting. As a former resident of Edina, I applaud your decision to list the County Club neighborhood as an Edina Heritage Landmark. As you know, a listing on the National Register of Historic Places offers recognition of . the significance of the Country Club residences, but it provides no protection of these resources from significant alteration, demolition, or inappropriately scaled new construction. Protection of the properties within the District occurs primarily at the local level as a result of local landmark designation and review by the Heritage Preservation Board (HPB). While Edina has general guidelines in place to assist the Board in their review of proposed changes in the historic district, I firmly believe the proposed changes to the Plan are necessary to make the design review process more clear and effective for both residents and'the members of the HPB. The Plan of Treatment represents a critical step forward to address concerns about inappropriate infill construction in the Country Club neighborhood, and brings Edina's process in line with other municipalities across the country seeking to maintain the character and quality of properties in historic districts and neighborhoods. I strongly support your ongoing efforts to protect the Country Club district and encourage you to continue with additional measures in the future. Many inner -ring suburbs across the country are utilizing a variety of approaches to battle the impact of teardowns in their communities. They are creating expanded historic districts, establishing conservation districts, enacting demolition fees or taxes, and changing their zoning codes (through such methods as the adoption of development 1785 Massachusetts Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20036 P 202.588.6105 P 202.588.60B2 www.PreservationNation.org The Honorable James Hovland and Edina City Council Members April 9, 2008 Page 2 standards, downzoning, or overlay zoning) to better address the challenges of teardowns and inappropriate inf ill construction in their neighborhoods. If you are interested, more information .on all of these tools can be found in the " Teardowns" section of our websites at www.r)reservation.org /teardowns. The National Trust for Historic Preservation is a private, nonprofit membership organization dedicated to protecting the irreplaceable. The Trust provides leadership, education and advocacy to save America's diverse historic places and revitalize communities. Its Washington, D.C. headquarters staff, nine regional offices and 29 historic sites work with the Trust's quarter = million members and thousands of local community groups in all 50 states. Warmest regards.

I was impressed by the presentation by Mr. Lonsbury. I did not agree with all his statements but he made a good presentation. After his presentation the people were to have a say on what is going on in our city. Well I was most disturbed by the attitude of the Mayor and his arrogant manor in answering some of the speakers. They had a right to address the council and the Mayor's personal comments were out of order. Also Mr. Lonsbury sat in the first row and was on camera whenever someone spoke from the left podium. I do not think he should have sat with a smirk on his face and then smiling as people were literally pouring out their hearts regarding the city that they love. I understand that we must change in some ways however what is purposed is changing the CHARACTER of this area. It is literally wrenching out the very soul that made this area what it is. People look up to this area as a prestigious city to live in and work in. The changes that are purposed will just make us another blurb on the map. The people for the most part pushing this plan are recent transplants to the city (anything less than 25 year) or not part of Edina at all. Just by the way they talk you can tell they do not know why this area is held in such high esteem. Why our property values have always advanced faster than surrounding communities. Why people who have lived here for thirty and forty years and more are so passionate about their city. . I have seen the same scenario occur in cities in the east. Westport CN for one that fought the high rise craze and kept their identity. Winnetka, IL is the same situation. These areas are the most sought after and have the largest increases in property values. Other areas close by them have become just more names of cities in the suburbs. In Edina we have the luxury to have areas set aside as commercial and high density housing. I've always thought this is so well planned by our city leaders. You have everything south of highway 62 on France as commercial. You have the Pentagon Office Park, and across the highway the Edina Office Park (North of 494 — south of 70�' Street — West of 100). Why are you making suggests to change residential areas like France Avenue north of 62? In the Comprehensive Plan Chapter 4 page 17 states, "High traffic volumes have eroded the historically residential character of the street, ". This is the area that I live in and lived in for over 45 years. I really do not know what you are referring to. The area is suffering because of absentee landlords and the city not checking and making these owners keep up their properties. This area is populated by mostly double bungalows that are owned by absentee landlords who will rent to whoever can afford the rent. It has lead to structures that are not the best maintained. Many of the lawns have been paved over for parking. If you watch in the evening and on weekends there are as many as five to seven cars in some of the driveways. Also boats and cars parked on grass areas. I do not believe this is lawful but the city does not do anything about it. If you have that many cars in a driveway of a two bedroom home how many people are living in that apartment? Isn't there some sort.of ordinance limiting the amount of people that can reside in a two bedroom apartment? This is not the fault of the people living in these buildings it is the responsibility of the landlords that are living in other parts of the metro area. If you see the garage doors up on these rentals you can see that they are being used for storage. There are large boxes piled ceiling high in these garages. If they had to put their cars somewhere other than the driveway they would not have anywhere to keep them. I really feel for these renters as they are being used by the landlords. I'am sure that most do not know that they are doing anything wrong. It is up to the city to enforce the rules and laws to keep these homes along France Avenue from becoming as ragged as it is becoming. Proposing to put up three story buildings for affordable housing in this area is not the answer (map chapter 4 page 51). Police the area and get the property, owners to keep up their properties. Is it legal to black top your front yard for parking? Some days it looks like a row of used car lots. I have heard the Mayor speak on other occasions about the people that work here should be able to live here. In concept that is fine. However, not all these people wish to live here and if they wanted to they would find a way. My children went through the Edina School System and some of their teachers lived in Edina and many did not. It was their choice. For several years we had a firefighter living next door to us and we loved having him and his wife here. They were great neighbor. But for reasons completely unrelated to finances he moved. At the meeting where my wife and I heard the Mayor promote this idea he was saying that affordable housing renters could move into housing around centennial lakes. He said that people would want their children to have a chance to attend Edina schools. My wife pointed out to the Mayor that that area is in the Richfield School District. The Mayor changed his approach in'a way that would make any politician proud. He said but they will be attending school. Is that an answer? There are so many groups around the .city starting up in opposition to City Hall's proposals for change. All these people are the citizenry of Edina. Why is city hall so opposed to doing what the people want? You say well they can come and voice their opinion at our meetings. We know how that is received. When the people speak up for the most part it falls on deaf ears. It seems that the only way to get the city to listen is to take legal action. HOW SAD1 Sincerely, Richard R.

More intense hurricanes along the Gulf Coast. Increased drought and water shortages in the West. These are just a few of the impacts scientists believe will result from unrestrained global warming — impacts that will leave no comer of America unaffected. Science tells us that, to avoid the most dangerous impacts of global warming, America and the world must take immediate action to reduce emissions of global warming pollutants. In the United States, that means halting the growth in global warming emissions now, reducing emissions by at least 15 to 20 percent by 2020, and achieving reductions of at least 80 percent by mid - century. America has the tools to achieve these goals. We are the most technologically and economically advanced nation in the world, blessed with vast natural and intellectual resources. And our nation has a track record of responding to major challenges and achieving unthinkable goals. All Americans have a responsibility to act to prevent dangerous global warming. But the oil, coal, auto, and electric utility industries have a special responsibility. For decades, these industries have fouled the atmosphere and done so free of charge, despoiling a gift of nature that rightfully belongs to us all. This must now end. The time has come to limit America's emissions of global warming pollutants, the vast majority of which come from the burning of fossil fuels. In so doing, our political leaders must ensure that polluters pay for the right to use our most precious common resource – the atmosphere – n iu i ')nnR Page 2 of 11 with the revenues used to ease America's transition to a clean energy economy and to benefit the public at large. Auctioning Allowances in Cap -and- Trade: A Clean, Fair, and Smart Solution to Global Warming There are many paths America can take to reducing global warming emissions. Among them are "cap - and- trade" programs that couple a cap on emissions with a mechanism that allows businesses to buy, sell and trade "allowances" to pollute. It is critical that any cap- and -trade program require the auctioning of pollution allowances, rather than giving those allowances away for free to polluters. By auctioning pollution allowances, we affirm that no one has a "right" to pollute. Instead, we claim the atmosphere as a common resource, to be managed for the benefit of the public, which no polluter may foul without due compensation. By auctioning pollution allowances, we reduce the societal cost of achieving emission reductions, enabling America to achieve its climate protection goals with less disruption to our economy and the lives of individual Americans. And by auctioning pollution allowances, we prevent the accumulation of billions of dollars in windfall profits by polluters, and instead put those revenues to work on behalf of the public. Allowance revenues can support efforts to transform America into a clean energy economy and to provide a regular dividend or rebate to American consumers. We call on state and federal lawmakers to limit global warming emissions to the levels demanded by the science and to auction all pollution allowances in any cap- and -trade program Carl Pope Executive Director SIERRA CLUB San Francisco, California Mark Cooper Research Director Consumer Federation of America Washington, DC Chad Dobson Director of Government Affairs OXFAM AMERICA Boston, Massachusetts Roger Hickey and Robert Borosage Co- Directors CAMPAIGN FOR AMERICA'S FUTURE Washington, DC Margie Alt Executive Director Environment America 4/8/2008 Jim and Liz Denn 5209 Duncraig Road CRECEIVE Edina, MN 55436952 -926 -9491 D April 6, 2008 Mr. James Hovland, Mayor City of Edina 4801 West 50th Street Edina, MN 55424 Dear Mayor Hovland and City Council Members, We have been residents of the Highlands neighborhood since 1990 and would like to formally express our support for the upcoming Highlands project. Our history and connection to this neighborhood is unique and has afforded us a broad perspective when making decisions about what is best for the neighborhood as a whole. We have two children in school at Southview and our two youngest children are at Highlands Elementary. Our children's grandparents, John and Wilma Parrott, moved to Northwood Drive in 1971 and they remain there today. Having had such a lengthy connection with this particular neighborhood, we are constantly aware of and attempting to balance the differing needs of the adults, the young children, the teenagers who are driving as well as the elderly residents. Along with many of our fellow residents, we believe the sidewalks on Ayreshire Boulevard and Doncaster Way are a needed addition to our neighborhood. We recently moved from Doncaster Way to our new residence at 5209 Duncraig Road. From a "walker perspective" this new location presents different challenges. When we lived on Doncaster Way, although we were only a block and a half from the school, we asked our children to walk well out of their way and travel to school by walking up Lochloy and Ayreshire. To be honest, this was a lesser of two dangers, as we felt the crossing at Ayreshire was very unsafe as well. While walking them to school, I personally witnessed near accidents involving walkers at the base of the hill where Ayreshire and Doncaster meet, on Doncaster in front of the school during the icy season and at then bend in the road on Ayreshire where the children from Lochloy, Duncraig and Vernon cross to enter the school through a private yard. - - -- The walk to school has changed since the 70's. Until a few years ago, walkers from the west side of Highlands Park as well as those from Doncaster and the lower loop of Lochloy were allowed to cut through the yard between the homes at 5409 and 5405 Doncaster Way. This shortcut backed up to the woods at the school and allowed children to avoid the safety concerns of the hill on Doncaster. The current home owners recently chose to no longer allow children to cut through the yard. While disappointed from the perspective of parents who had children that used the shortcut, we -completely understand and acknowledge the homeowner's right to limit the traffic through their private yards. Currently, the Azars at 5304 Ayreshire , have graciously offered to let the children walking from Vernon, Duncraig and the south side of Ayreshire cut through their yard to gain access to the school. While this makes a great difference, we as neighbors are completely dependent on the Azar's for this gesture. Although we are grateful for the openness of neighbors like the Azars, we do not feel it should be the responsibility of the individual . homeowners to provide a safe route to the elementary school. We echo the idea many other neighbors have mentioned in their letters to the council. Highlands neighborhood is a great spot to be and past residents have worked diligently to ensure this. We hope that the city will work together with the neighborhood to do what is best for the community as a whole. The safety of our residents of all ages isthe number one concern.

RASI plan Am pleased that city council is moving forward to consider resident's concern of the traffic calming ,. measures recommended by the RASI plan. A survey-is an integral part of the Edina Traffic Management Plan which was approved in 2006 as the process that the city is obliged to follow. and hopefully is one that is written to seek unsolicited responses from the residents. We are all aware that the majority of residents are opposed to the measures of the plan and have a great concern that the redesigning of intersections will divert traffic to streets already burdened from the traffic changes in 1993. It was unconciousable not to include an "as is" option /question in the survey.... especially after it was noteably requested at the council meeting of 4/1. I regret to think that the Star Tribune article the questioning the council's ability to listen to it's residents has validity, but the council has to show proof ,through its'actions, that it does listen . What Agency is assigned to tabulate the results of the survey? Please respond. Please share this message with the other council members for I do not have their emails. Pat Dill You rock.

The classrooms are already overburdened by open enrollment students who need an inordinate amount of attention and take away from the education of our own children. More students with these types of needs will continue to draw focus from our children. Our daughter, who we adopted from Korea, needs the quality of education that our son received and we are at risk for her future by overtaxing our school resources by moving forward with the Comprehensive Plan.

My wife and I have been residents of Edina since 1984 ( 5141 Abercrombie Drive) and feel a responsibility to weigh in on the plan that are being discussed regarding development in the Lewis park/Cahill areas. I was able to view a council meeting on local cable access where local residents had a chance to air their views on the proposals. One of the presenters, Casandra Mikhalek (spelling ?) spoke very clearly as to what she felt was the project's impact to our quality of life that we have come to expect here in Edina. I want to echo her position as I don't think it preserves the standards that will allow Edina to remain the attractive 1 st tier suburb that it is. I have recent experience with development as the Coventry project on West 70th was erected out my back window and has blocked views that were previously available to the Bush Lake ski jump and neighboring vistas was surprised by the scope and size of that "replacement" project. I do not want to see that kind of size and density further exploited in the Lewis Park/Cahill area especially high density affordable housing. I see the neighborhood police reports from Edina and notice how the areas that are higher density in nature attract more police intervention. Let's be prudent in selecting the type of development that enhances our style of living. I hope you will consider all of the residents inputs and choose against development that does not have our support.

SEAL APR 8 RECEIVED r Making changes to the operations of your agency without a qualified, outside assessment has the potential for tremendous negative consequences. As former Public & Private Sector Managers (including City / County Managers and Mayors), we understand the important responsibilities you face. If you haven't had an Efficiency Study conducted in recent years, it might be the right time to do it! For example, this past Legislative session in Florida resulted in a statewide 40% reduction in local property taxes - causing significant concerns and challenges for local government administrator's in Florida. While this type of dramatic revenue reductions may not be the case in your state, you are likely following the national trend of lower local property tax values (and revenues), decreasing or flat sales tax revenues and state - shared revenue battles annually at the statehouse — all of which make your operational budgets more challenging. If the downturn in the national economy deepens, greater cuts within your organization may soon follow. We can help. The Municipal Solutions Team has been assisting cities, towns and counties in taking a hard look at all aspects of their operations — and assisting them to become more efficient along with $ millions in cost savings. Our 360° Assessment has the ability to "challenge every aspect of the organization" or simply assess one or more departments to address / validate potential issues or opportunities. Municipal Solutions brings fresh, experienced eyes to examine your revenues, expenditures, risks, needs, skills, technology, processes, and resources. Our process validates your agency's `best practices' and identifies probable improvements for cost savings without reduction in service quality. 4/8/2008 Susan Heiberg From: Stoddard, Alicia B [alicia_stoddard @uhc.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2008 12:30 PM To: Jennifer Bennerotte Cc: Stoddard, Alicia B Subject: Concerns regarding Proposed Highlands Neighborhood BA 342 project Page 1 of 1 ' SEAL APR S 7mq RECEIVED Dear Mayor and Council Members: I am writing to express my concern about the Proposed Highlands Neighborhood BA 342 project. Like many residents of the Highlands Neighborhood, I am concerned and disappointed in the City's ability to plan and budget for standard maintenance projects. It is not only surprising but somewhat appalling that residents are being asked to bear an unplanned for burden of $14,000 per household in times of tightening budgets and economic concern. Especially on projects that are discretionary or would simply need to be re -done when the neighborhood completely settles. I agree with many of those in my neighborhood that altering the entrance onto Ayrshire Blvd. would result in a more dangerous intersection for residents and negatively impact our ability to both enter and exit our neighborhood safely. In terms of the sidewalk that is proposed, it is a nice idea and may get minimal use by residents and school age children, but I also echo the concerns of other residents about the process for the proposal of a sidewalk. Does our neighborhood traffic pattern meet the minimum requirements of number of cars traveling on Ayrshire (750 per day) to warrant a new sidewalk? It seems that living without a sidewalk for 50 years has worked fine for residents of this neighborhood, what has changed recently to now warrant a sidewalk? Wouldn't an extra stop sign at the corner of Ayrshire and Lochloy also help slow traffic entering our neighborhood? Will it really be safer to narrow the road so much when we have an large influx of extra cars in the summer /fall for soccer and football at the park? As it is you can barely pass through the streets with cars parked on both sides of the roads. Some streets definitely need resurfacing and if sewers must be replace then those parts of the project should be done, but why should we pay additional taxes on top of an increasing tax burden that the City of Edina year- over -year asks residents to pay? If it is because of poor planning on the City's part, then I urge you to do what residents have to do with their own budget: examine, prioritize, and do what is necessary and cut the fat. Much of this project seems wasteful and at least ill plannLd. I don't understand why residents were not consulted initially to determine what we think the problems and issues are? In terms of the street lights, it would be nice to replace the broken lights where necessary. I ask that the City look at it from an environmental impact as well. Which lights will produce less "light pollution" which ones use less energy? 1 am concerned about the safety of the school children in the neighborhood and the general maintenance of our streets, but think that the Council and Mayor should examine alternative solutions and scale back the project to do only what is necessary.

Some residents in effect stated that simply because I have a smaller house than my neighbor and have a lowed income, I am undesirable and also some of us have criminal tendencies. I have sat thru enough meetings of this nature to realize where these people are coming from but I thought mature adults are learning that all low income housing won't exist only in the central city.

I attended the Open House tonight for the Country Club Neighborhood safety proposal and 1 was terrifed to find out that my street will become a bigger cut thru and speed raceway if all these changes take place ..... I am outraged at the thought that our street of Arden which has the most houses on it will become a bigger target for traffic and FAST speeds... Do you really think that 2 little speed bumps at the beginning of the street will do the trick ?? What ever did happen to the most logical proposal of closing off the top of Arden at Sunnyside and Grimes ? ? ?? That would definitely prevent cut through traffic thru the bulk of our neighborhood!!!!!! As you said tonight, the bulk of cut through cars come from 50th and exit out Arden and Sunnyside ... so therefore just cut the end of Arden off and you will solve the problem of traffic coming thru both ways!!!!! It makes the most sense!!! DUH! Carol Hancock 4503 Arden Avenue Get the MapQuest Toolbar, Maps, Traffic, Directions & More! 41, Joni, \0yp CI7 o ► SEAL < APR I. n P009 I realize a lot of effort by the, city and some citizens have gone into the study of RECEIVE,) traffic patterns and perceived need to reduce traffic on some streets. However, from the city council meetings that I have seen. You are the only one who seems to be listening to what the majority of people want or do not want in this case. First, I am flat out opposed to speed bumps, choking designs and other physical design alterations or devices that block the free flow ofAraffic on streets. Reasons for my objections 1) Northeast Edina already has the slowest response rate for emergency vehicles and having ambulances with a sick or injured person in the now further delayed vehicle going over speed bumps is almost tantamount to negligence. 2) Forcing longer trips for all drivers in terms of time result in more gas being wasted which is not good for the economy or the quality of our air. 3) Outside of a couple of sidewalks (the one on 44th is_ not practical because of the narrow lots), I see NO effort to encourage alternative means of transportation in the designs (i a public transportation, a park and ride, more direct walking routes to 50th and:France or a good safe side walk system to the schools.) 4) Frankly, I just do not perceive that there is a significant traffic problem in Country Club or any of the residential streets in northeast Edina. I have lived here for almost 20 years. I drive the area a lot and walk my dog around much of it. I do not see the traffic problem. 5) The survey results do not justify the added expense and inconvenience these alterations would impose. 6) This whole idea of changing the streets appears to be the efforts of a minority of residents and there is no clear evidence the majority of residents want anything near what is proposed. 7) As a property owner, I oppose paying for these unwanted changes. Observations and Comments Perhaps some more side walks on Towns Road, White Oak area and 49th and 48th streets would be good. Walking trails or paths that would hook people up with public buildings and schools such as a good sidewalk system on the frontage road to the Edina Community Center, Concord School and Southview School would be helpful. People need to understand that when they.move to northeast Edina, they are now in an urban area where cars use public streets and streets are designed to take people to places not a dead end. Streets are not extensions of parks or to be used instead of yards as play areas.

All 1 i ')nnQ CITY CN SEAL � APR t I 7nn4 Dear Mayor Hovland, and Members Bennett, Housh, Masica, and Swenson, RECEIVED We are writing to express our support of the work of the Heritage Preservation Boa'rd' (HPB) and the revised Plan of Treatment for the Edina Country Club District. We have been closely following the process over the past year or so, and greatly appreciate the countless hours that the HPB has put forth in order to add clarity and strengthen the original guidelines. One major concern with the original guidelines was that semi - teardowns (less than 50 percent of the exterior structure removed) were exempt from review by the HPB. The new Plan of Treatment more thoroughly defines demolition, and provides the HPB with the ability to fulfill its planning objective to preserve existing historic home facades and streetscapes. Under the new guidelines, homeowners would be able to make changes to the street - facing facade(s), but a review by the HPB (in the circumstances outlined) will ensure that compatibility within the district will be maintained. An additional concern with the original guidelines was in regards to new home construction within the district. We live directly across the street from a newly constructed home . that is out of scale with the neighboring homes, and is significantly larger in terms of square footage and roof height. The HPB's revised guidelines for new home construction provides guidance to homeowners and builders in maintaining compatibility in size, scale -and massing with historic buildings in the district, yet allowing for reasonable homeowner flexibility in style and other elements. As with the new garages, the new guidelines give some leeway to increase the height of the new home, but will not allow for new homes to tower over existing adjacent structures. Lastly, while we realize that the issue of teardowns of historic properties may be contentious, the new guidelines put what we believe are reasonable stipulations on the process whereby the need for complete demolition of 'a historic property (due to deterioration, damage, or inappropriate alteration or addition) must be met before a Certificate of Appropriateness is granted. In revising the Plan of Treatment, we feel that the HPB has objectively considered resident input, and has provided ample opportunity for resident review through public notices of the open house on February 25, 2008 and upcoming City Council meeting, articles in the Edina Sun Current, and posting of the HPB meeting minutes /meeting schedule on the City's website. The revised document is, we believe, a fair balance between the homeowners' right to upgrade their homes and the City's and neighborhood's desire to preserve the historical integrity of the district. We ask that the City Council approve the revised Plan of Treatment in its entirety. Thank you for your time and attention.

I grew up in Edina, and while I currently ,ttend the University of Minnesota, my permanent residence is still in Edina. I'm also a city employee, as I work part -time for the Parks & Rec Department. Redevelopment of the Southdale and Cahill areas is vital for the future success of the city. Taller buildings are necessary for population (and tax base) growth. Still, the large majority of the city will remain suburban with single - family homes. However, becoming more urban, especially around Southdale, is an advantage that is unique to Edina -- something Eden Prairie simply can't match. ' Those who stand in the way of new development can move to Eden Prairie if they so choose. I believe if you're not growing, learning, changing, you're dying. I'd much rather see a new, diverse, vibrant Edina than an old, dull, sleepy one. Thanks for your wonderful ideas, and keep it upl Mike Peterson a 1 Jacqueline Andrews 5232 Duncraig Road Edina, MN 55436 (952) 925 -1043 Mayor James Hovland City of Edina 4801 West 5e Street Edina, MN 55424 Dear Mayor: March 31, 2008 I am writing to express my apposition to the Proposed Highlands NeighborlmedBA_. 342 project �3rl13��f� 6'UUl � ddb A major concert is the proposed -sidewalk: on the west side. of Ayrshire and -the narrowing -of the boulevard from Vernon to Duncraig: I have lived on Dine W Rd for over forty years and I can say with certainty that the school children on Duncraig, Lochtoy and Ayshire will not use a sidewalk to go to school. They have always "cut through" to the backside of the school across the playground It is not realistic to expect them to walk . all the way around IWe entrance to the fthiands neighborhood-is one of the most-attractive in Edina. To narrow the boulevard would not only take away from the attractiveness, it would be less safe. A bike rider would be at far greater risk when ,going around a parked vehicle. Cars behind the biker would not have the room to maneuver. As for extending the parkway all the way to Vernon, that too, would be unwise. When making a left turn onto Vernon during periods of heavy traffic, we all "edge out" on an angle so we can ease onto Vernon. To extend the parkway would require us to make a sham left turn and-cause a backup. This is a busy intersection.. In previous years we were told we could not have a light as it was too close to the light at Tracy and Vernon. If the sewers must be replaced, so be it I have lived on Duncraig for forty years and in the past, the city has paid for street maintenance and resurfacing. Why are residents now being asked to pay for street resurfacing? Regarding the street lights: I support replacing and repairing the existing lights where necessary, but do not favor all new "decorative" lights. The cobra lights, when working, do a fine job. In closing, I do not feel that this needs to be an "all or nothing" project. -Due to the current economy, I believe we need to be fiscally responsible. An assessment of $14,000 will strain the finances of many residents. Jacqueline Andreews Dear Neighbors, We would like to encourage all of you to support the Highlands Reconstruction project. Many children, including ours, walk to and from school. As we observe these children walking , they are forced to' walk on the grass to avoid the traffic which is usually going faster than the posted speed. Some of our own residents, trash collectors, and even the Edina school buses, are among the fastest drivers. As a. family with three young boys, we are afraid to allow them to ride their bikes on Ayrshire Blvd. Sidewalks would allow the children on bikes and scooters, families walking with strollers, or people just out for a walk to feel safe and not have to worry about vehicles on the road. The down sloping curve on Ayrshire Blvd on the way to the park is extremely dangerous. We have had many close calls while walking with our kids as cars drive around the blind corner at high speeds A sidewalk along Ayrshire Blvd would help ensure the safety for our residents and all the kids in our neighborhood. The reconstruction project will also fix many other important issues, however, we wanted to focus on the safety of all the residents of Highlands neighborhood. Along with the addition of sidewalks, the other proposed plans are very necessary as well. The street surfaces need to be fixed, and not just patched. New lights and light poles would enhance the look of our neighborhood as well as provide better lighting. The water and drainage issues are also extremely important and need to be remedied. The proposed plan would be beneficial for property values, safety, and appearance of our distinguished but aging neighborhood.

This B oardr follows from t of hat conversation, and summarizes my - thoughts based upon 25 years observation as a resident of the Country Club District. Recognize that I have no sPec3a3 knowledge of the City of Edina ° s administrative structure, nor of the laws and st'atlutes that enable and govern Whether -the special qualities -that distinguish the Country Club neighborhood as an historical place are imaintained, or are not maintained, is a matter Of policy 'on whack reasonable people may differ. 1, myself, began with the premise that tae maintenance and restoration of those qualities was- a desirable and important goal., and 1 have comeo the conclusion that this end is unobt.ainabl•e within existing arrangements. with self -s . Simpl -y put, the goal is►-inconsistent with self - interesla�d decisions by in property owners, and with -the. administrative actions of existing city departments and agencies.. Without significant change in the oversight of the neighborhood, talking of its preservation as an historic. place is empty rhetoric, an should be recognized as such.. I assume that Amy experience is_a fair representation of neighborhood change over the past 25 years. A brief rendering -- of that experience follows: erioi3 was the closing. A no loss early in that p of the Wo:oddale School, which took place despite vigorous neighborhood oppositiomz. No officiary. sanctioned argument.fot its preservation as part of a hi stor cal place, was av llable, = A cautionary event .of about that time '.was the cos�s�traDr_� 3nr� Of a Conte �i3rary siyie - house_ on- -Casco Avena�e S ire vacant lobs: were in effbct nonexistent, and demob of houses in that clay- and. age.-.was inconceivable, .tie , house was not a threateai�-g precedent; bud.i _did suggest the limits to which property owners' self - interest might take them. _ Also in this period the boulevard elms were succumbing to Dutch elm disease and other causes.- Replacement was hit and �iss.._I have counted some iC va ie es -of trees that nave been replanted. 1 remember meeting.. with the City. Forester for guidance, and being told that he had no use for boulevard trees. 10 -2- �z2e ayoo --ale School was demolished and replaced by a multiuse park area that it is charitable to think of as a public embarrassment- - Through traffic increased over the-years, and because it moved more rapidly than local traffic., the character of neighborhood traffic was qualitatively changed. The 1993 'Traffic Project purported to address the issue by reducing through traffic, but, in fact, only redistributed - it. In the case of Drexel Avenue this meant a radical increase in fast-moving autos. when I discussed the speeding problem with the City Police Department I was told all of the reasons that nothing could be done. - Prior to 19,90, owners maintained their property, but major additions were uncommon. After that time there was an influx -of new owners and the old tradition was replaced by one in which major additions were less the exception, and more the rule; this in a neighborhood - which was already deliberately laid out With substantial homes on modestly sized lots.. With the flourishing economy of recent years: so much wealth flowed into the neighborhood that it created a whole new sense -of possible actions in terms of property improvements. 'The threat to existing neighborhood values has become obvious. Self interest and even best intentions carry no guarantee for the exercise of good judgment and ..appropriate taste in the context of an historic place. In the past.5 yezars there have been major .additions built .-or-, begun at 4602 Drexel, 46,04 Drexel, 4608 Drexel, 4607 wooddaie, and -46,09 Wooddale, with the consequent noise and traffic disruption on a continuing basis.- At least .4 of.these would have benefited from some oversight kh, the context of their relationship to the neighborhood. when I raised questions about the propriety of certain specifics with-City Planning Department, I .sometimes lead a sympathetic ear , bait was always told that there was no violation of ordinances. In general, lots, excepting front yards, h -ave become increasingly all structure and concrete slab, and back yards have tended to become- vestigial- Where formerly front yard landscaping was conventional, -if unimaginative, now exotic- iandscaping is being introduced. Next owners will become sensitive to their lack of additional space and will want to buy and tear down neighboring houses for their swimming pools; tennis. courts., etc. . there is no real need to continue this litany. what this experience tells me is that the self interest of in;dividtal property owners and the functioning of the existing City adni nistrative structure are not going to maintain the special gq'alit.ies that distinguish this neighborhood. Radical sudden change will be avoided; but a gradual erosion to a similar. end will not be. what is obviously needed, if such change s to be not only halted, but reversed., is an institution - within the City's structure that speaks directly, coherently, and authoritatively for the special.distinguishing historical qualities of the neighborhood; an institu.�ion that gives these values -a legitimate voice. The f3eritage Preservation Board is an obvious c.andi,�late for this role. 'Thus 3 would propose that its powers be expanded to' include: approval or denial Of all .substantial residential projects, such as major additions, major external renovations, •demo2.itions and rebuildings, as well as all major public works projects, such as traffic control, park, street, boulevard and sidewalk redesign; and moreover that they have advisory and guidance obligations in residential landscape redesign, exterior redecoration of residences, and on the maintainence of boulevards, parks, easements,. sidewalks, and traffic islands. (The fact that these lesser_ neighborhood aspects are more readily reversible does not diminish their potential for harm in terms of both precedent and substance.) This prooposal appears to be- more Draconian than it _is. Firstly we are only talking about an area of about one: fod th square mile, with some 1-500 houses, most occupants 47 of:.rh3ch are .explicitly or implicitly supportive of the historic qualities Of the neighborhood. Secondly, the intent is. not to. prevent improvemeni�- in: the neighborhood, but rather toIassure that they be done with -care and.oversight within the context of the n�ighbohoo•d's special historical qualities-. (it would be difficUlt to argue that this approach is preju icial to. property values.) Thirdly, it would be my contention. at once the intent to preserve values is legitimized and made substantival then a more constrained sense of possibility w il.l quickly be assumed by property owners-and city officials. Even if you disagree with the above arguments and ,conclusions, i ask that you read.them carefully. i am apart from pity affairs, so i- provide •an independent perspective. 1 -y years as a resident, I have been witness to one third of the neighborhood's lifetime. I have .dewed some of its changes with concern. This fetter derives from my observations and concerns. i have endeavored to present my arguments and conclusions cl -early and rationally, and i ,woul_d hope that they . are o€ some meaning and benefit to you. ! Donald p. eesaman cc. Craig Larsen Joyce Repya Gary Nyberg T (45`'SEAL April 14, 2008 APR 15 1009 RECEIVED Mayor James Hovland City of Edina 4801 West 50" Street Edina, MN 55424 RE: Highlands Neighborhood Road Reconstruction, Improvement BA -342. Dear Mr. Mayor: As Highlands neighborhood residents, we are in support of having our streets redone. They badly need attention. However, we have signed a petition to protest the City's current plan. We understand that 86% of the effected households have signed this petition. Hopefully we can modify the existing City proposal to meet the desires of the effected residents so we can proceed without delay. I: The proposed changes in regards to safety. Street safety is a concern to us. We would like to thank the City Council for passing the resolution to examine the feasibility of more 25mph zones. We are also supportive of the "Be the Pace Car, not the Race Car" campaign. We are parents of a 7, 5, and 4 year old. We are concerned for their safety anytime they are on or near a street. However, the proposed changes actually increase our concerns rather than alleviate them. In the initial survey that the City sent out we expressed that we were very comfortable with our children walking and biking on Ayrshire with the exception of the stretch from the west loop of Lochloy to Doncaster. That section is too narrow for proper pedestrian/biker safety. Now the City is proposing narrowing the rest of Ayrshire. This is not good for bikers. In fact, the feasibility report does not mention bicycles at all! Where Ayrshire is a boulevard, the report recommends narrowing the 1 way road to 20ft with a budget of 12 ft for moving cars and 8 ft for parked cars. How can Edina hope to be a bike friendly city with that kind of planning? Are we meeting the guidelines of the comprehensive bike plan developed by the Edina bike task force? The sidewalk proposal is very unpopular. Our feeling is that the current layout of Ayrshire offers enough visibility and room for pedestrians with the 1 exception noted above. The reasons that have been given by the City for the sidewalks are 1) The desire to surround Highlands elementary school with sidewalks. Counterpoint: The Highlands neighborhood is not a pass through neighborhood. The only school pedestrian traffic that Ayrshire would see would be from the effected 74 households and they should be allowed to decide if sidewalks are a benefit. 2) The desire to provide a pedestrian link from Highlands park to Garden park. Counterpoint: Ayrshire would seem like a logical walking route if a map is consulted. In reality it is a dead end. There is no way to safely cross Vernon at Ayrshire or at Hansen due to the blind turn, high-speed and volume of traffic, and guardrails blocking the way. The only place to safely cross is at Doncaster and Vernon. Therefore, park visitors would use Doncaster and should not be fooled into traveling on Ayrshire to be dead ended at Vernon. In summary, the sidewalks would be almost 100% used by the Highlands neighborhood and an overwhelming majority opposes them. II: The proposed changes in regards to the aesthetics of the neighborhood: Edina has very attractive neighborhoods and each has its own style and flavor. It is important that any proposed changes take this into consideration .so our city doesn't start looking bland. Highlands has a look and feel that is addictive to people. Often houses sell through word of mouth to people who have been staking out the neighborhood for years waiting for an opportunity to move in. Part of the Highlands neighborhood style is the boulevard entrance and the broad necked street openings at intersections. Because of the strong traffic safety history of the neighborhood, we feel that the proposal to narrow streets and intersections is not needed from a safety standpoint and is unwanted from an aesthetic standpoint. III: The proposed changes in regards to cost. Cost is a major concern to us. Getting our streets done right is only part of the task. We need to be very mindful of keeping expenditures as low as possible to make our city as affordable as we can. The neighborhood residents are paying for the streets, are the primary users of the streets, and our property values will be effected by any changes. Please listen to the residents and give us a larger say. Sincerely, Carl & Aundria Schreiner 5264 Lochloy Drive Edina, MN 55436 CC Joni Bennett Scot Housh Linda Masica Ann Swenson Jack Sullivan Dear Neighbor: - SEAL -< APR 15 7nnq RECEIVED As many of you know, the "NoSpeedHumps" group, now known as the` Concerned Citizens for Country Club Preservation, circulated a petition to restore our neighborhood streets to their "as is" configuration. What that essentially means is that during the construction scheduled to begin later this year, the streets will be restored to their present configuration, with no traffic calming measures. While there is certainly some appeal to the notion of doing nothing, it is important to know that traffic calming has already occurred in the past under the 1993 traffic calming plan. For example, prior to 1993, drivers coming over the Browndale Bridge could drive directly onto Browndale (see pictures on www. historic 1993. com). As a result of the 1993 plan, the street leading directly onto Browndale was actually paved over, and replaced with a large peninsula and pedestrian walkway. The peninsula veers traffic to the right, encouraging cars to take another street. By the fall of 1995, Browndale had seen a 21% reduction in traffic. Other streets in the neighborhood were not so fortunate, and many saw double digit increases in traffic that remain to this day. Only after the plan was implemented were residents were advised that a "major objective" of the plan was to redistribute traffic off of some streets and onto others. We are all taught that we should learn from our mistakes, and it is clear that the 1993 traffic calming plan, which provided traffic calming measures for two out of ten streets, was a mistake. As we all struggle to reach consensus on these issues, one thing is clear. If the City moves forward with "as is" restoration, and elects not to implement a traffic calming plan, the only fair and equitable "as is" restoration is to the configuration of the streets prior to 1993. This will not slow traffic, it will not increase motorist awareness, but it will be fair. The Public Hearing on this matter is April 21st. If you support "pre -1993 as is" restoration, l encourage you to make your views known by e- mailing the City Council at www.edinamail @ci.edina.mm.us. By e- mailing the City Council, you are advising members of the Council that if they choose not to move forward with a traffic calming plan then they should restore the neighborhood streets to their pre -1993 configuration. This is not a vote for or against traffic calming. Through the neighborhood survey that was distributed a few weeks ago, everyone had the opportunity to express views about the various traffic calming measures. These surveys are due today. If, after reading this, you would like to remove your name from the "as is" petition, and support "pre -1993 as is,, restoration, I would encourage you to e-mail the City and ask that your name be removed Again, that address is www.edinamaii@ci-edina.mn-us.

Charles J Fuhrmann GIT 5221 Duncraig Road CAPRI Edina, MN 55436 952 - 925 -9223 cfuhrmannl@gmail.com April 11, 2008 Mr. James Hovland, Mayor City of Edina 4801 West 50'h Street Edina, MN 55424 RE: Proposed road, sidewalk and utility project for Upper Edina Highlands Neighborhood Project NO. BA -342 Dear Mayor Hovland, My residence is 5221 Duncraig Road. We have lived here. since 1986 and raised two children both attending Edina Highlands School. With that in mind, I believe that I speak with some authority as to the Edina Highlands neighborhood. I understand and appreciate the hard work and planning that has gone into this project by city planning and city engineering thus far. However, the proposed construction plans as proposed for my neighborhood, other than ne�`ssary maintenance, is unwanted by myself and the majority of the Highland neighborhood residc.its. An assessment of $15,000 per household at this time of slowed economic time is too high. We as a neighborhood are looking for options to reduce this cost. I understand a few new Highland residents have been vocal about some changes but I can assure you most residents I have met with or talked to by phone are not supportive. I disagree these are improvements. They should be considered regular city maintenance projects (lights, utilities and asphalt repair) that are scheduled and appropriated into the annual city budget! My comments on the proposed work as follows; 1. Sidewalk on Aryshire Boulevard. It is unneeded and unwanted. It is said that this is a safety issue. In the twenty -two years I have lived here, there have been, as far as I know, only two minor accidents. Bikers and pedestrians have co- existed without issue in the past. I personally run and bike throughout other Edina neighborhoods and we see far less traffic in the Highlands neighborhood than others who have the same street infrastructure as Highlands. Why Change ?? Sidewalk availability would invite young bikers, roller bladers, skate boarders, etc. This could really cause a problem for walkers, particularly Mr. James Hovland, Mayor Page Two April 1, 2008 those of advanced age. The present situation allows plenty of room for.bikers, etc. to maneuver around pedestrians, hence the lack of accidents in the past. To my knowledge, there has been no petition requesting a sidewalk for this area, as is required. Aryshire is classified by the City as a "residential road ". It is not a "collector road" and will not become one in as much as the area is completely developed with no vacant lots! Remember the traffic study performed in October where access to the Highland Park for football is at peak for the year! With that in mind, traffic is still below most City guideline minimums. I repeat, a sidewalk in our neighborhood is unneeded and unwanted! 2. Ayrshire Boulevard entrance /exit onto Vernon. This proposal would detract from the attractive median (that has been maintained by the neighborhood) that sets the area apart from other Edina neighborhoods. Narrowing the road to provide more "green" and reduce water run off could be debated as a positive contribution. This should not be considered an improvement to Edina Highlands. The overall idea of narrowing Ayrshire is a bad idea and has a bigger potential for problems than the current situation. With this change, I question the visual safety access, when driving a car, from Ayrshire onto Vernon with this proposed change. I understand a traffic light is not viable because of the proximity to Tracy/ Vernon intersection. I strongly object to this change! 3. Replacement of sixteen street lights. I understand less than five lights are of such condition that the wiring is a problem. The current lights are totally adequate for the amount of light afforded by them. The majority of Highland residents believe that "like for like" should be the replacement formula. Why doesn't the current lighting fall under the description of normal maintenance? 4. Water /sewer line repair and road maintenance. As I understand it, the proposed Sewer and Water repair falls under repair / funded by the city "utility fund ". The repairs will take place on the east side of Lochloy. To rip up the 2/3 balance of the street is unnecessary and wasteful. The soil is predominantly clay, therefore movement is continuous and will do so for many more years. This, of course, creates problems for water and sewer line maintenance. Such will continue for many years, whether or not the street is resurfaced. Doubling the depth of the roadway to an 8 -inch depth would obviously be more expensive to excavate than the "mill and overlay" process recommended by civil engineers in other cities such as the City of Lakeville. Our neighborhood streets have historically been relatively free of pothole problems and other maintenance issues. I see no reason to change a winning formula. The remaining useful life of our storm and sanitary sewer system is, we are told, about fifteen years. If that is the case, a major replacement project is in the future. Adding to the future cost by doubling the road bed to 8 inches would be poor planning and an irresponsible waste of home owners' money. I strongly urge the city to re- evaluate the road repair option and resubmit a proposal. In summary, we have a great neighborhood as is! Other than normal maintenance the proposed construction is wasteful, unneeded and unwanted. The Highland neighborhood residents are firm in our desire to maintain it, but please don't change it!

Minneapolis, MN 55455 Office: 612- 625 -6860 Fax: 612- 625 -0710 DATE: 13 April 2008 TO: The City Council of Edina FROM: Robert D. Sykes, Associate Professo:46 SUBJECT: Edina Country Club District Plan of Treatment, revised draft. As you can see from the letterhead, I am writing you not only as a resident of the Country Club District (4524 Casco), but also as a member of the tenured faculty in the Department of Landscape Architecture at the University, of Minnesota. My academic and professional career has had a dual focus on the design of urban development plans and the integration of storm water management techniques and systems into both existing and new developments. It is from this frame of reference I provide you with a critical analysis the subject document. I apologize for the lateness of this memo. I am writing this from Venice Italy, where I am currently teaching (as I have for ten years) in the College of Design's six-week program in urban design held here annually for graduate students in the professional degree programs in architecture and landscape architecture. I just learned from a neighbor's email that this matter was being considered at the next meeting of the Council. I spent a good chunk of the weekend preparing this for you because it is something I know a lot about professionally and care about deeply. I hope you find it helpful. For ease of reference, I have structured my analysis by listing first a recommendation for revision keyed to the draft titled " DRAFT Edina Country Club District Plan of Treatment REVISED" provided to me by my neighbor, which I understand is the most current (it is not dated). Following each numbered recommendation, I also include a COMMENT section to explain the rationale for the recommendation. Overall, I approve of the plan. Most of the recommendations are aimed at sharpening the language and providing more defensibility. I recommend the removal of one entire provision because it is unrelated to the historic preservation goal of the document, and muddies the waters (pun intended). RECOMMENDATION 1. PLANNING OBJECTIVE. Before "PLANNING OBJECTIVE" Insert: "PREAMBLE The Country Club District of Edina comprises the first housing development of its kind established in the State of Minnesota. Its value is not only in the design of the individual houses, but also the way in which they are arranged on its lots and how the lots and the houses on them contribute to the totality of the streetscapes that comprise the public spaces of the District. Since its establishment, it has served as a model for the design of new developments in Edina and for many zoning standards established in Minnesota and most of Edina. As such, it represents, similar to public libraries, an irreplaceable historical reference for scholarship in urban design and the history of American cities and for municipal governments in addressing and regulating issues of urban design and planning of residential districts for the.public welfare. This value is recognized by its listing on the National Register of Historic Places. This Plan of Treatment is intended to preserve and page 1 of 5 protect the public welfare represented by the increment of property value of each home in the Country Club District that springs from the recognized historical significance of the District as a whole. This Plan of Treatment is also intended to preserve and protect the historical integrity of character of the public streets of the District and their value as a resource to the city and for the public. " COMMENT FOR RECOMMENDATION 1. The insertion of a preamble that speaks to the public welfare goals of this regulatory document provides a clearer rational nexus to the constitutional exercise of the police power. The PLANNING OBJECTIVE paragraph cites Department of the Interior Standards for Treatment of Historic Properties, which exist as a regulatory rule by which that department implemented Federal legislation protecting historic resources by regulating the exercise of property rights under the police power doctrine. As a legislative body, the basis for the action of the City Council in this context should be underpinned by clear references to the basis of the police power (promotion of public health, safety, morals and general welfare) — in this case probably the public welfare. This would establish the legislative goal of the council from which the regulatory objective would flow. It also provides more legal traction, in addition to presumption of validity, to defend its provisions against challenges on the grounds of taking under the fifth and fourteenth amendments to the Constitution. Therefore, I suggests omething like the above language be inserted before "Planning Objective ". RECOMMENDATION 2 Heritage Preservation Resource or Historic Building. Change "...Heritage Preservation Board...." to "...City Council...." COMMENT FOR RECOMMENDATION 2. The Heritage Preservation Board has only regulatory enforcement authority, it is not a legislative body as is the city council. In this writing, I have not been able to access records that would tell me if this authority has been previously delegated to the Board with the criteria upon which to make its decisions about such declarations. If not, it would be better if the Edina City Council established the designation of such resources and buildings upon the recommendation of the Board because doing so would invoke the presumption of validity given under the Constitution to acts of legislative bodies, thus burdening challenges to such designations with the need to prove that the Council acted arbitrarily. These designations should not be easily accomplished and deserve the attention of the Council to make them stick once established. RECOMMENDATION 3. DESIGN REVIEW GUIDELINES First Paragraph, first sentence. Insert following after "...architecture ": and issues of streetscape design. COMMENT FOR RECOMMENDATION 3: The main historical value of the Country Club District is not simply its individual houses, but how they add up to define the spatial volumes and character of the streets upon which they front. Of course, much of this is controlled by the setbacks of houses, and the qualities and dimensions of the houses, and the things controlled later on in this document. However, it is important to get out front the idea of streetscape design as an overall aim of the review, not only for those who propose projects, but also for those who will evaluate them. It is important to look at not only the individual "trees" but also how they contribute to the "forest ", metaphorically speaking. It was Thorpe's eye for how individual house designs added up to quality streetscapes that, in the end, made this district so prized. page 2 of 5 s.��. -._DTI - +ar-vaays•�.. _-__`..i : -�� ....r.: ��. _"__ Tyr �_� v ..r�.� - . �.. �_ _ __.__ _ RECOMMENDATION 4. DESIGN REVIEW GUIDELINES First Paragraph, second sentence. Insert following after "...new houses ": and accessory structures and improvements. COMMENT FOR RECOMMENDATION 4: Garages and other accessory improvements are also discussed in the :guidelines and should be named up front to be clear about this intention that is manifested in the specific provisions that follow. RECOMMENDATION 5. DESIGN REVIEW GUIDELINES • Landscaping Elements Change "Landscaping Elements" in the title to "Site Improvements ". Also, I would recommend changing the last sentence in this paragraph to read: "Retaining walls should be used only to preserve existing lot grades where ground slope transitions to driveways, walks, steps and patios are too steep to maintain slope stability or appropriate vegetative cover.' COMMENT FOR RECOMMENDATION 5: The term "landscaping" has imprecise and variable meaning in general usag. What is described here extends beyond the typical scope of decoratively arranged plants, edging and mulch, which is what the term landscaping most commonly implies. The term "site improvements" includes the larger scope and the more integral elements enumerated in this provision. The above language should accomplish the intent with greater precision and provide well - defined teeth for enforcement. "Landscaping" is neither technically accurate nor adequately descriptive. The term "site improvements" is. RECOMMENDATION 6. DESIGN REVIEW GUIDELINES • Impervious Surfaces. This provision is should be taken out altogether. COMMENT FOR RECOMMENDATION 6: This provision is inconsistent with the stated objective of the Plan of Treatment as it has nothing to do with its aims. None of the techniques promoted in it were in use in the district prior to 1945. The idea that the techniques discussed have any relationship to historic preservation goals simply lacks credibility. They are not historical and, if implemented, will actually tend to work against the stated objective of the Plan of Treatment. I believe the plan should focus on its intent, and not wander off into other regulatory areas. The zoning code is the place to control imperviousness. Leaving it here opens the Treatment Plan to attack on the basis of arbitrariness by providing evidence of controls on something unrelated to the stated purpose. This provision is also a bad idea from a storm water technical point of view. Ordinarily, I would champion these provisions, but In fact; the use of the techniques it describes will not yield much practical result in the Country Club District in terms of improved runoff water quality, and in many circumstances will guarantee water in basements. On this basis, the provision is irrational and should be dropped. Currently, these techniques are being "discovered" by the general public and are being put just about ' everywhere imaginable as a general "good ". I have been researching and publishing in the area of storm water management in urban design for 27 years. I have been teaching the proper design of these techniques in the professional degree program in landscape architecture at the University of Minnesota page 3 of 5 -- --. since they were invented. From this experience, I can tell you that, because of the nature of the lots and streets in this district, this provision is about as effective in attaining its objective as would be throwing a sheet of fabric softener into the elephant house at the zoo to achieve the objective of reducing elephant odor. The imperviousness built into the basic design configuration of the districts' small lots together with the streets that serve them push the impervious cover percentages way past the 10% tipping point documented in the literature for water quality protection purposes. The small size of the lots does not allow sufficient surface space for functional application of the "green" alternatives. Further, the entire area is graded wrong for the useful application of the "green" techniques, and it is all drained by storm sewers which amplify the ill- effects of pavement, further limiting the benefit of such techniques in practice. To be effective, they green techniques cited also require hydraulic and hydrologic calculations in their design to be effective, but in practice most are installed without the calculations being performed. Finally, putting porous pavements close to houses increases the probability of water seeping into the basements. This is what would happen on most lots in Country Club if such pavement systems are used for driveways or patios. The manufacturers of these pavement systems specifically warn against such positioning. If they warn against it, why advocate it here? RECOMMENDATION 7. DESIGN REVIEW GUIDELINES • Year Built Identification. Change this provision to read: "Year Built Identification — New homes should have the year built integrated into a foundation wall of the house in an above ground location that will be permanently visible and easily legible for inspection for the expected life of the structure. " COMMENT FOR RECOMMENDATION 7: This is a better alternative for new houses. The year built can be cast into poured concrete walls by the use of an appropriate form liner, or integrated into the bonding pattern of unit masonry walls. You can buy bricks made with engraved surfaces. Concrete block walls could have one block position filled with poured concrete with the year cast into it as described above. This solution is simple, inexpensive, integral and permanent. Note, the language does not specify a means, but focuses on an intended result, leaving the means open for innovation. See also the similar recommendation for garages below. RECOMMENDATION 8 GARAGES Second bulleted paragraph Change: "• Undecorated exterior walls longer than 16 feet should be avoided on elevations visible from the street or adjacent properties." To read: Blank exterior walls longer than 16 feet and blank, flat panel garage doors should be avoided on elevations that are visible from the street or adjacent properties. Such walls and garage doors should be articulated with windows, or other details that subdivide them into an elevation composed of well-proportioned smaller panels and parts comparable in scale, detail and arrangement to those characteristic of the elevations of the principal structure on the lot.

The above language describes what is important about the architecture of the original buildings that is violated by long blank walls and requires that it be provided. Specifically, what is needed is integral design of wall panel proportions together with window character and positioning. "Decoration" implies something that need not be integral to the walls, which is not an historical attribute of these houses. Good designers will understand the difference without being told, but all will be better directed by the above language. It also gives measurable, enforceable specifics on which the Heritage Preservation Board can focus. RECOMMENDATION 9. GARAGES Third bulleted paragraph Change this provision to read: "• New garages should have the year built integrated into car entry apron of the floor slab in a manner that will be permanently visible and easily legible for inspection over the expected life of the structure. ' COMMENT FOR RECOMMENDATION 9: All garages require floor slabs with aprons where cars enter them. Having the date of construction of new garages cast somewhere into apron of the floor :slab of the garage would be better than a plaque because it would be practically impossible to remove, and it will be less costly to produce. It will also be less obtrusive, and in a fairly uniform location. Note, the language does not specify a means, but focuses on defining an intended result leaving the means open for innovation. page 5 of 5 Susan Heiberg From: Jennifer Bennerotte Sent: Monday, April 14„ 2008 8:30 AM Cc: Susan Heiberg; Wayne Houle Subject: FW: I mistakenly signed the country club petition Jennifer Bennerotte Communications & Marketing Director City of Edina 952- 833 -9520 FAX 952 - 826 -0390 jbennerotte@ci.edina.mn.us From: Trisha Hoyt [mailto:penhoyt @mac.coml Sent: Sunday, April 13, 2008 11:06 PM To: Jennifer Bennerotte Subject: I mistakenly signed the country club petition 4 SEA' < APR 15 ?099 FI CEIVED Page 1 of 1 Thanks for removing my name from the petition.

The proposal is likely to lower the value of many properties by reduced lot sizes, narrower roads and limited street parking. The value of our property (5209 Lochloy Drive) will not increase by the proposed "improvements." THEREFORE, the City cannot impose a special assessment against our property. Minn. Stat. Sec. 429.051 permits the imposition of a special assessment against property benefited by the improvement ONLY "based upon benefits received." As a matter of law: "The benefit received from an improvement is the increase in market value of the benefited land." Eagle Creek Townhomes LL v. CiV o f Shakopee, 614 N. W.2d 246 (Minn. Ct. App., 2000) (citing Buzick v Ciro, f Blaine, 505 N.W.2d 51, 53).. "An increase in market value is the difference between what a willing buyer would pay a willing seller for the property before the improvement and after the improvement." Id (citing EHWProperties v. Q& ofEagan, 503 N.W.2d 135, 139). WE ARE ENTITLED TO AND HEREBY REQUEST A COPY OF THE REPORT PREPARED PURSUANT TO MINN. STAT. SEC. 429.031, subd. 1 (b), DESCRIBING THE METHODOLOGY THE CITY HAS USED TO CALCULATE THE PROPOSED SPECIAL ASSESSMENT AGAINST OUR HOME PRIOR TO ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION ORDER THE IMPROVEMENT. In addition to objecting to imposition of a special assessment against our home for more than the increase in market value from the proposed "improvements" we object to the proposed project for the Mowing reasons: Replacing the existing 4 -5" base roadway base with an 8" base road will cause more extensive and expensive water main repair work every year. At the City Informational Meeting on February 13, 2008, we were told that annual Highlands neighborhood water main breaks are due to "settling" of the neighborhood and will continue until the neighborhood fully settles. Installing an 8" base will increase the cost of, and time required to, repair annual water main breaks. Tearing up the new road every year will compromise its integrity and shorten its useful life. The improvement should wait until the neighborhood has fully settled. Narrowing Ayrshire Boulevard from Vernon Avenue to Lochloy Drive is proposed. Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429 specifically authorizes a municipality to "acquire, open and widen any street" but does not specifically authorize a municipality to "narrow" streets (see M.S. 429.021). Wider roads are safer roads due to better visibility and room to maneuver when necessary. The "improvement" will create parking problems where none exist, including a "no parking" zone, as well as generally less safe driving conditions. Edina City Clerk, Mayor and City Council 2 April 144 2008 Retaining the present Ayrshire entrance at Vernon Avenue is necessary for neighborhood ingress and egress. The wide entrance .allows turning off Vernon, where cars travel at 40 -50 mph, into the neighborhood from a slowed speed rather than a full stop when necessary. The proposed change would force residents to come to a full stop in the middle of a curve on Vernon to turn into the neighborhood, at greater risk of getting slammed from behind. It will also force cars to make a sharp turn from a full stop onto Vernon, an increased risk of being broadsided. Safer ingress (but still unsafe especially in bad weather) from Vernon after the "improvement" would require a turn lane. After "improvement" there will be no daytime or early evening safe egress from Ayrshire onto Vernon unless a stoplight is installed. The proposal would replace about half of the sewer system. Either the entire system should be replaced or none. We were informed at the Informational Meeting that there is "nothing" wrong with the present neighborhood sewer system and that it has another "20 -30 years" useful life. The City acknowledged at the Informational Meeting that replacement will not prevent continuing water main breaks. In 20 -30 years the roads will have to be torn up to replace the part not replaced now. A sidewalk is proposed for the wrong side of Ayrshire. The MTC bus stop at Vernon, the side of the street where children wait for the school bus in the morning, and Highlands Park are on the other side of Ayrshire. Children will still be waiting in the street (including where Ayrshire is to be narrowed) for the morning school bus. When school children are dropped off in the afternoon, they either are dropped at their driveways on the proposed sidewalk side or immediately cross to the nonsidewalk side to get home. Children attending Highlands Elementary cross Ayrshire and a neighborhood yard or through the woods to get to the school. How many children will walk a quarter of a mile out of their way to use a sidewalk instead of a few hundred feet by cutting across a yard or through the woods? Most children going to the park (those living at 60 out of 77 assessed properties), if they use the proposed sidewalk, will have to cross Ayrshire twice, once to get to the sidewalk and again to get from the sidewalk to the park. Both from memories of my youth and my observations as a parent, few children will go out of their way to use a sidewalk. I doubt MTC riders will do so. Not only will the proposed sidewalk be rarely, if ever used, it is going to be an eyesore in a beautiful neighborhood, and maintenance will be a continuing waste of public funds. In sum: Whereas replacing the existing.road may be appropriate, including new curbs and gutters where nonexistent or inadequate, increasing the difficulty and expense to repair annual water main breaks by putting in an 8" base is irresponsible. Either all or none of the sewer system should be replaced. The proposed sidewalk is a waste of money both in installation and future maintenance. Most importantly, because the safety of residents and those who access our neighborhood to drive their children to and from athletic events at Highlands Park must be of paramount consideration, the present width of Ayrshire Boulevard and present design of the entrance at Vernon Avenue MUST BE P i e chloy Drive Edina MN 55436 429.051, Minnesota Statute 2 007 Minnesota Statutes Page 1 of 1 429.051 APPORTIONMENT OF COST. The cost of any improvement, or any part thereof, may be assessed upon property benefited by the improvement, based upon the benefits received, whether or not the property abuts on the improvement and whether or not any part of the cost of the improvement is paid from the county .state -aid highway fund, the municipal state -aid street fund, or the trunk highway fund. The area assessed may be less than but may not exceed the area proposed to be assessed as stated in the notice of hearing on the improvement, except as provided below. The municipality may pay such portion of the cost of the improvement as the council may determine from general ad valorem tax levies or from other revenues or funds of the municipality available for the purpose. The municipality may subsequently reimburse itself for all or any of the portion of the cost of a water, storm sewer, or sanitary sewer improvement so paid by levying additional assessments upon any properties abutting on but not previously assessed for the improvement, on notice and hearing as provided for the assessments initially made. To the extent that such an improvement benefits nonabutting properties which may be served by the improvement when one or more later extensions or improvements are made but which are not initially assessed therefor, the municipality may also reimburse itself by adding all or any of the portion of the cost so paid to the assessments levied for any of such later extensions or improvements, provided that notice that such additional amount will be assessed is included in the notice of hearing on the making of such extensions or improvements. The additional assessments herein authorized may be made whether or not the properties assessed were included in the area described in the notice of hearing on the making of the original improvement. In any city of the fourth class electing to proceed under a home rule charter as provided in this chapter, which charter provides for a board of water commissioners and authorizes such board to assess a water frontage tax to defray the cost of construction of water mains, such board may assess the tax based upon the benefits received and without regard to any charter limitation on the amount that may be assessed for each lineal foot of property abutting on the water main. The water frontage tax shall be imposed according to the procedure and, except as herein provided, subject to the limitations of the charter of the city.

No evidence indicates that PACT ever transferred legal title of the property to Johnson Development; moreover, it was PACT, not Johnson Development, that subsequently transferred the property to Stuart. [I ] Because the sale never closed, the city's argument that PACT and Johnson Development intended the city to be a third -party beneficiary is irrelevant. Eagle Creek is not bound by their agreement and has standing to pursue the assessment appeal. 2. Eagle Creek's Appraisal The district court has broad discretion in ruling whether or not to admit an appraisal and a reviewing court will not overturn that ruling unless it is based on an erroneous interpretation of the law or it constitutes an abuse of discretion. See Buzick v. City of Blaine, 505 N.W.2d 51, 53 (Minn. 1993). The city argues that the district court committed an error of law by admitting evidence of Strachota's appraisal and by relying upon it. Minn. Stat. § 429.051 (1998) provides: The cost of any [public] improvement * * * may be assessed upon property benefited by the improvement, based upon the benefits received * * *. The benefit received from an improvement is the increase in market value of the benefited land_ Buzick, 505 N.W.2d at 53. An increase in market value is the difference between what a willing buyer would pay a willing seller for the property before the improvement and after the improvement. EHW Properties v. City of Eagan, 503 N.W.2d 135, 139 (Minn. App. 1993). Market value is calculated based on the highest and best use of the land. Present use. of the land is not the controlling factor in determining whether the land has received benefit from the improvement. Rather, the test is whether the land could be used for purposes which would benefit from the improvement. Buzick v. City of Blaine, 491 N.W.2d 923, 925 (Minn. App. 1992) (quotations and citations omitted), affd, 505 N.W.2d 51 (Minn. 1993). Characteristically, an appraiser in a special- assessment case is to give two values to the property: the first is the value of the property before the public improvement is in place and the second is the value of the property after the improvement is in place. Strachota was to determine the benefit to the property as of August 1998. He did this by assuming that a townhouse complex was to be built on the land, even though as of August 1998 the construction of the complex had just started. (As far as we can determine from the record, the project has just been, or will be, completed this year.) He then assumed that the price a willing buyer would pay for the property in August 1998 would be determined by the condition of the property as of the completion of the complex in 2000. Based on these assumptions, he appraised the before value by looking at a townhouse complex without the public improvements, which would be a project with 166 units. Similarly, he determined the after value by looking at a complex with the public improvements, which would be a project with only 152 units. The essence of Strachota's appraisal, and the respondent's position, is that due to the particular land configuration and the streets and sewers existing before the public improvements, the improvements were not necessary and in fact resulted in a decrease in the value, because the landowner could only put 152 units in the complex, rather than 166. 429.03 1, Minnesota Statute Page 1 of 2 429.031 PRELINUNARY PLANS, HEARINGS. Subdivision 1. Preparation of plans, notice of hearing. (a) Before the municipality awards a contract for an improvement or orders it made by day labor, or before the municipality may assess any portion of the cost of an improvement to be made under a cooperative agreement with the state or another political subdivision for sharing the cost of making the improvement, the council shall hold a public hearing on the proposed improvement following two publications in the newspaper of a notice stating the time and place of the hearing, the general nature of the improvement, the estimated cost, and the area proposed to be assessed. The two publications must be a week apart, and the hearing must be at least three days after the second publication. Not less than ten days before the hearing, notice of the hearing must also be mailed to the owner of each parcel within the area proposed to be assessed and must contain a statement that a reasonable estimate of the impact of the assessment will be available at the hearing, but failure to give mailed notice or any defects in the notice does not invalidate the proceedings. For the purpose of giving mailed notice, owner; are those shown as owners on the records of the county auditor or, in any county where tax statements are mailed by the county treasurer, on the records of the county treasurer; but other appropriate records may used for this purpose. For properties that are tax exempt or subject to taxation on a gross earnings basis and are not listed on the records of the county auditor or the county treasurer, the owners may be ascertained by any practicable means, and mailed notice must be given them as provided in this subdivision. (b) Before the adoption of a resolution ordering the improvement, the council shall secure from the city engineer or some other competent person of its selection a report advising it in a preliminary way as to whether the proposed improvement is necessary, cost - effective, and feasible and as to whether it should best be made as proposed or in connection with some other improvement. The report must also include the estimated cost of the improvement as recommended. A reasonable estimate of the total amount to be assessed, and a description of the methodology used to calculate individual assessments for affected parcels, must be available at the hearing. No error or omission in the report invalidates the proceeding unless it materially prejudices the interests of an owner. (c) If the report is not prepared by an employee of a municipality, the compensation for preparing the report under this subdivision must be based on the following factors: (1) the time and labor required; (2) the experience and knowledge of the preparer; (3) the complexity and novelty of the problems involved; and (4) the extent of the responsibilities assumed. (d) The compensation must not be based primarily on a percentage of the estimated cost of the improvement. (e) The council may also take other steps prior to the hearing, including, among other things, the preparation of plans and specifications and the advertisement forbids that will in its judgment provide helpful information in determining the desirability and feasibility of the improvement. (f) The hearing may be adjourned from time to time, and a resolution ordering the improvement may be adopted at any time within six months after the date of the hearing by vote of a majority of all members of the council when the improvement has been petitioned for by the owners of not less than 35 percent in frontage of the real property abutting on the streets named in the petition as the location of the improvement. When there has been no such petition, the resolution may be adopted only by vote of four -fifths of all members of the council; provided that if the mayor of the municipality is a member of the council but has no vote or votes only in case of a tie, the mayor is not deemed to be a member for the purpose of determining a four -fifths majority vote.

The map recently provided with our Comment Cards was neither updated nor comprehensive and, as such is misleading. It does not show or describe the following, which would likely cause traffic redistribution to the narrow eastern streets: • Narrowed lanes at realigned intersections on western streets • Three traffic chokers along Edina Blvd. and others at the south end of some western streets A center median at the south end of Wooddale Ave. and lanes narrowed to 13 feet The narrowing of Browndale Ave., just north of the bridge. • The "share the road" style bike route all along Wooddale Ave. which I first learned of in the city's April 2, 2008 Background sheet If only raised measures (speed humps, raised crosswalks, etc.) are removed from the plan, it becomes even more off balance than it already is. For example: # of remaining traffic - Route through the neighborhood control devices Arden or Bruce & sunnyside 1 Browndale Bridge, Edina Blvd. Wooddale, & Morningside 6 Wooddale & sunnyside 4 +bike lane I compiled the above to the best of my ability from several maps and other city communications. Availability of a comprehensive map could clear up any mistakes I may have inadvertently made. Also, I did not include the realigned intersections on Arden and Bruce because not much can or will change on these narrow streets. Because it is doubtful that these inequities can be remedied before summer, please reconstruct our neighborhood "as is," that is, no traffic control measures.

The proposed changes shift, rather than balance, the rights of all stakeholders. More onerous restrictions make the approval process more complicated, time consuming and expensive. Moreover, both homeowners and neighbors could accept a proposed plan and the HPB can unilaterally reject it. This is simply not fair. I appreciate the efforts of HPB. I do not want a "modern structure or a "McMansion" in the Country Club neighborhood. I believe the HPB should both keep its current role and keep the current policies in place. By the HPB's own admission, the current rules have greatly reduced tear downs and unacceptable structures. Only 4 new homes have been built in the past 7 years! The proposed changes address a problem that does not exist. I encourage all of you to drive through the Country Club neighborhood before making your decision. You will find well kept homes that are consistent with original model Thorpe Bros. had in mind. HPB's current role is both effective and balances the rights of homeowners, neighbors and the City of Edina. HPB should play a meaningful role, not have unchecked discretion. Otherwise fundamental homeowner rights will be ignored, restoration will be next to impossible, and property values in our neighborhood will be adversely affected. Please do not approve the proposed changes. Thank you for your consideration.

BA -342: road, sidewalk and utility work for the Upper Edina Highlands Neighborhood. As Edina residents since 1994 and Highlands residents since 2003, we were dismayed by the process and lack of communication associated with this project. The proposed and mostly un- detailed $14,000 assessment was also a shock. In any economy, this type of wholesale re- engineering without neighborhood input in the discovery phase seems strangely disconnected. Obviously, necessary repairs to infrastructure are important and should go forward. But we feel strongly that the re- design is unnecessary and would detract from an already fine neighborhood. Our position on whether or not these changes (maintenance or redesign) should be made at the homeowner's expense is beyond the scope of this letter. Current economic conditions, though, add, a level of urgency that should not be ignored. To reconfigure our streets, re- design the roadbed and add sidewalks and fancy lamps, all at homeowner expense —in a recession —is irresponsible and places an unfair burden on the citizens asked to pay for it. Only necessary maintenance /replacement should be done now. In summary, we are in favor of normal maintenance, but not of the re- design. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely yours, Russel P.

The redesign of the island in front of my home will compromise the graceful nature of the intersection and construct a one -way, redirected traffic flow that will narrow the streets, increase metal signage, add more concrete and sidewalks. This design will impact all the islands East of me as well. I have raised four daughters here teaching them to respect the streets and use the sidewalks. The school buses have stopped in front of my house for over 20 years. I love my community and live in my home not because it is a great house but because it is in a great neighborhood. Country Club has embraced tradition, enjoyed a lovely mix of residents – young and old —and is safe considering our times. You can't let this plan go forward. There are better solutions and, while I recognize the investment of staff time and resources, you must remember that it is the majority of your constituents you must serve.

I am living proof that this is simply not true. In addition I can testify that I have had numerous "close calls" with cars that have been speeding and /or not paying attention. I stopped using the sidewalk ramp onto Bruce at the Northwest corner of Bruce and 50th because of the frequency of cars making the turn onto Bruce at high speed. Frankly, I am now terrified to ride my bike again in my own neighborhood. Mr. Christensen also objects to statements like "children will die." I am not a child but I very nearly died. Must we wait until this becomes fact in order to make an intelligent decision to act in the face of a clear and present danger.

Thank you, Jack and Kate Boyer (46O5 Arden Ave.) I write to share my perspective on the proposed improvement project for the .Highlands neighborhood. I agree with those who have written in support of the ,project for.many of the same reasons they have articulated. The street, sewer, and water need to be replaced (as if to remind us, 'i understand the water main broke again this weekend). New street lights would improve the appearance of the neighborhood and improve the lighting. The sidewalks would make the neighborhood more pedestrian- friendly and make the area nearest the school safer. Finally, the narrowing of the entrance to the neighborhood seems likely to help slow cars (and other vehicles) that drive too fast coming into and leaving our neighborhood. Although I am not looking forward to paying $15,000, the project seems both necessary and beneficial to our property, the neighborhood, and the city. I have not signed the petition that was circulated in the neighborhood but am sympathetic to the concerns expressed .in it and in other letters about the cost of the project. While I understand that the per - property cost of the project is similar to the cost of the street project in the Todd Park neighborhood last summer, it is still a significant sum for any of our families to digest. Accordingly, I am supportive of any ways that the street reconstruction portion of the project can be reasonably modified to reduce the cost of the project so long as the modifications make engineering sense. In addition, I could support leaving the lighting out of the project (or postponing it to some later date) provided the lights that are not working now can be repaired. I urge you, however, not to remove the sidewalk from the project. It has a relatively small $400 per - property cost. In addition, I understand that the proposed design for the sidewalk would not result in the loss of any significant trees and would generally locate the sidewalk at or outside the existing curb line, making it less intrusive for the adjacent neighbors. These costs are, in my mind, far outweighed by the benefit of making the Ayrshire Boulevard corridor safer and more pedestrian - friendly. The stretch of Ayrshire (from Doncaster to Vernon) is appropriate for a sidewalk because it is the most challenging place in our neighborhood for pedestrians and vehicles to co- exist. It is where vehicles travel the fastest either entering off of Vernon Avenue (where the posted limit is 40 mph) to access the other side of the neighborhood, the park, or the school or accelerating the last few blocks as they leave the neighborhood. It is also one of the primary routes kids in our neighborhood use to walk or bike to the school and the park. While we are fortunate to have gracious neighbors who allow the neighborhood kids to cross through their yards to the school, kids as young as six years old still have to walk along some portion of Ayrshire to get to the cut- through. Moreover, if the cut - through were ever closed (which has happened on Doncaster), those same kids would have to walk down the Ayrshire hill to Doncaster to get to school (as some kids do if they ride their bikes to school). That curving, downhill, narrow stretch is the most dangerous part of the corridor for pedestrians. In addition to the safety factor, placing a sidewalk along Ayrshire is a small but important component of our city's effort to become more pedestrian- friendly. In this day and age, we all talk about creating an environment that encourages people to find opportunities to walk to places instead of getting in their cars. Placing a sidewalk along Ayrshire helps make such an environment possible by creating a connection between Highlands Park and Garden Park and makes it that much easier to walk from our part of the neighborhood, to the library, Jerry's, Starbucks, or other destinations in the Grandview Square area. When this and the safety benefits are weighed against the relatively small per - property cost and inconvenience, I believe it makes sense to include the sidewalk in the project.

VVe write to add our support to continued strengthening of the historic preservation ordinance. Jay & Leah Lindgren 4911 Arden Avenue 952-924-4153 4/15/2008 April 9, 2008 O� SEAL A' To Whom it May Concern: PR 15 2009 RECEIVED An 'exclusive' traffic calming plan for one select neighborhood in the midst of many t neighborhoods affected by - growing traffic is reprehensible. It is unacceptable for the City of Edina to let this happen. Residents surrounding the country club neighborhood have made this clear for years, and as the country club neighborhood has continued to ,push, the city has now bowed to the pressure. What are the real goals .here: Country club wants less traffic. But we all do, so improving one area only is unacceptable. It improves the quality jof life for select residents. It reduces the quality of life for the surrounding neighborhoods as our streets become even busier. Country club wants to beautify. The plans I saw this evening were very pretty. In fact, maybe they could be made to be so alluring that even more people would want to 'drive through' and see the sites. Country club wants to make it clear to others that their neighborhood is exclusive and special. The 'historical' .markers and special 'elegant' typeface selected for the signs is a wonderful way to relegate the other surrounding neighborhoods as being 'lesser' in prestige and beauty. I implore the City of Edina to not bow to the pressure of this one neighborhood and to cancel or lessen the traffic calming measures that have been approved. Here are my reasons: These measures separate and divide neighbors and communities. Why should one neighborhood receive this amount of attention and not other neighborhoods? What if every neighborhood wanted little markers and crosswalk_ s and to be labeled? How would that improve our feeling of community? The proposed traffic calming measures appear to be more for show than usefulness. There are overly elegant columns, signs and bricked speed bumps and pedestrian crosswalks. My understanding is that one speed bump at a time isn't very effective and creates noise and pollution. If traffic calming is the real issue, why does the plan not include hard core traffic calming tools. I do not see double speed bumps or triple speed bumps in this plan. The measures have been 'dumbed down' for beautification and this expense to the City will not truly be effective. The proposed plans compromise security to the country club neighborhood AND surrounding neighborhoods. For the City of Edina to reduce emergency vehicle response time, put kids on school buses at risk and to affect the safety of cyclists is IRRESPONSIBLE. I never see police enforcement in these neighborhoods or along 44th street. Drivers are allowed to go as fast as they want and ignore stop signs without consequences. Before spending the money for'beautified' speed bumps, signs and crosswalks, I implore the City to attempt less expensive and intrusive measures such as police enforcement, radar speed units and awareness campaigns. These measures, combined with a very limited and select number of speed bumps'coming off main thoroughfares would be far more acceptable. Thank you for your sincere consideration of my opposition to your plan.

Saylor, 4900 Bruce Avenue Ralph Tully, 4619 Bruce Avenue Request for Addition to the Agenda: Member Rehkamp Larson advised the Board that the issue of the traffic calming measures approved for the Country Club District has come to the attention of residents who are now expressing their disapproval of the measures. Some residents from the neighborhood were in attendance and would like to address the Board. Ms. Rehkamp Larson asked that the Country Club District traffic calming measures be added to the agenda. The Board agreed to hear the concerns of the residents after the work on Item # III C. the Revised Plan of Treatment. I. APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES: February 12, 2008 Planner Repya asked for approval of the minutes. Member Blemaster moved approval of the minutes from the February 12, 2008 meeting. Member Ferrara seconded the motion. All voted aye. The motion carried. II. ELECTION OF OFFICERS: Planner Repya requested nominations for the office of chairman. Member Fukuda moved to nominate Chris Rofidal to the office. Member Blemaster seconded the nomination. Member Rofidal offered his philosophy for the responsibilities of the Minutes – March 11, 2008 Edina Heritage Preservation Board IV chairman and explained that if the Board was comfortable with his approach, he would accept the nomination. Board members appreciated Member Rofidal's candor and unanimously approved Rofidal to become the Board Chairman. Member Rehkamp Larson moved to nominate Laura Benson to the office of vice chairman. Member Blemaster seconded the nomination. Member Benson accepted the nomination. Board members unanimously approved Member Benson's for the office of vice chairman. III. COUNTRY CLUB DISTRICT A. Open House – February 25th Board members Benson, Rubin, Kojetin and Scherer represented the HPB at the Open House of February 25th where the results of the research and possible changes to the district's Plan of Treatment were presented. Members Rubin and Benson shared their favorable reflections. Member Blemaster expressed her regrets for being unable to attend however stated that she was impressed with the favorable emails the Board had received from the neighborhood. Member Rehkamp Larson also appreciated the email comments, pointing out that she saw a call for clarity and specificity in the revised plan. Chairman Rofidal agreed that the email messages received from the open house attendees provided good specifics. B. Survey Progress Report - February Consultant Vogel was not in attendance, but provided the following progress report summarizing the project work carried out during the month of February: I continued to review and organize the survey data so that it can be integrated into the planning process. The evaluation of individual properties was completed and a comprehensive inventory of all contributing and noncontributing properties is forthcoming— probably in April. A considerable effort was made to prepare for the district open house on February 25 and the upcoming HPB and Planning Commission meetings scheduled for March 11 and 26, respectively. I will not be present at the HPB meeting but will attend the Planning Commission to present a summary of the survey results. 2 r Minutes — March 11, 2008 Edina Heritage Preservation Board C. Revisions to Plan of Treatment Chairman Rofidal recognized that there were members of the community present that may wish to speak on this item, and suggested that the public testimony be taken prior to the Board discussion. Public Comment: Joe Sullivan — 4504 Casco Avenue Mr. Sullivan stated that he understood the historic designation of the district but, emphasized a concern for basic property rights. He opined that with the HPB controlling new construction, if a property owner chose to tear down his home, he should be allowed to do so. Dan Dulas — 4609 Casco Avenue Mr. Dulas stated that the reason the district has the heritage landmark designation is due to the historic architecture of the homes and the manner in which it was built. If a homebuyer feels that the homes in the district don't fit their lifestyle, or are ugly, perhaps the historic Country Club District is not the right neighborhood for them. Mr. Dulas concluded that he understood that not every home in the district is historic; therefore he would like to see some constraints on which homes would qualify to be torn down. Bruce Christensen — 4515 Browndale Avenue Mr. Christensen stated that he thought it was dangerous to remove homes in the district. He encouraged the consideration of a peer review system, pointing out that the current process was unsustainable. He further opined that a homebuyer in the district should not have a free right to build whatever they want at the expense of the neighbors. Cheryl Dulas — 4609 Casco Avenue Ms. Dulas thanked the Board for the work on the revised Plan of Treatment, stating that the work thus far demonstrates a significantly stronger plan. Chairman Rofidal thanked those who spoke for their comments. Member Rehkamp Larson moved to close the item for public comment. Member Ferrara seconded the motion. All voted aye. The motion carried. Board Discussion: Chairman Rofidal suggested that since a majority of the revised Plan of Treatment prepared by Consultant Vogel does not include substantial changes, 3 Minutes — March 11, 2008 Edina Heritage Preservation Board but rather clarifications, the Board should address those issues where change is proposed. All agreed that was a good idea. Item #4 — Revised definition of "demolition" ti Proposed language — For purposes of design review and compliance with City Code §850.20 subd. 10, "demolition" shall mean the physical alteration of a historic building that requires a city permit and where (a) 50% or more of the surface area of all exterior walls, in the aggregate, are. removed; or (b) 50% of more of the principal roof structure is removed, changing its shape, pitch, or height; or (c) a front porch, side porch, vestibule, attached garage, or porte - cochere is removed or destroyed. This demolition does not include removal of existing siding, roofing, trim, fascia, soffit, eave moldings, dormers, chimneys, windows, and doors. Certificates of Appropriateness are not required for demolition, in whole or in part, of non - historic buildings; however, Certificates of Appropriateness are required for any new construction in the district. Board members agreed that the demolition definition was very important to the Plan of Treatment. Discussion ensued regarding whether it was wise to have separate regulations for historic and non- historic resources. The consensus opinion was that they should not be treated differently; Member Ferrara then suggested removing the second paragraph from the demolition definition which states that "A COA would not be required for a non - historic building." Board members agreed that would be a good idea. Member Rehkamp Larson suggested that under item c) which cites the elements of a home that if removed would be considered demolition; dormers should be included to the listing. As proposed dormers are not included. She pointed out that a dormer is structural to a home much like a porch, vestibule or porte- cochere. Whereas those items not included in the definition of demolition i.e. roofing, trim, fascia, soffit fall within the classification of routine maintenance for a home. Discussion ensued regarding the suggestion — opinions varied, thus members requested a vote. Member Rehkamp Larson made the motion to move "dormers" into the classification of elements, if removed would be classified as demolition. Member Benson seconded the motion. Members Benson, Fukuda, Rehkamp Larson and Rofidal voted aye. Member Ferrara voted nay. Member Blemaster abstained. The motion carried. Revised language For purposes of design review and compliance with City Code §850.20 subd. 10, demolition shall mean the physical alteration of a building that requires a city permit and where: (a) 50% or more of the surface area of all exterior walls, in the aggregate, are removed; or 4 Minutes — March 11, 2008 Edina Heritage Preservation Board (b) 50% or more of the principal roof structure is removed, changing its shape, pitch, or height; or (c) A front porch, side porch, vestibule, dormer, attached garage, or porte - cochere is removed or destroyed. This demolition does not include removal of existing siding, roofing, trim, fascia, soffit, eave moldings, chimneys, windows, and doors. Item #5 — When a COA for demolition would be approved Proposed language ' No Certificate of Appropriateness will be approved for the demolition, in whole or in part, of any heritage preservation resource in the district unless the applicant can show that the subject property no longer contributes to the historical significance of the district. For design review purposes, the terms "heritage preservation resource" and "historic building" refer to any building, site, structure, or object that has been so designated by the Heritage Preservation Board on the basis of its historic associations or historic architectural qualities which add to the significance of the district as a whole. Heritage preservation resources may lack individual distinction but must possess historic significance and integrity of those features necessary to convey their heritage preservation value. An updated inventory of heritage preservation resources in the Country Club District will be compiled by the Heritage Preservation Board and maintained by the City Planner. Following a brief discussion, Board members agreed that the consultant's recommendation that "The plan of treatment should give priority to restricting teardowns to non - historic properties" should be added to this paragraph as the second sentence. Item #8 — Detached garages a) Discussion ensued regarding whether the Plan of Treatment should discourage front facing attached garages. Member Blemaster felt strongly that such garages should be prohibited. Upon the request for a vote, Member Rofidal moved to add that "front facing attached garages are discouraged." Member Blemaster seconded the motion. All voted aye. The motion carried. Discussion ensued regarding the 18 foot maximum height above grade established for detached garages. All agreed that they would prefer using the same percentage concept for the height of the garage as is used for the home, i.e. "The roofline should have a maximum height within 10% of the average height of existing detached garages on adjacent lots, or the average of the block." A general discussion ensued regarding layout for the plan. Member Ferrara pointed out that she would prefer organizing the plan with topic headings rather 5 Minutes — March 11, 2008 Edina Heritage Preservation Board then numbers, to assist the reader in finding information. All agreed that would an excellent idea. Planner Repya agreed to organize the plan by labeling paragraphs. Chairman Rofidal than made a motion for the Board to accept the draft Plan of Treatment as revised. Member Ferrara seconded the motion. All voted aye. The motion carried. IV. 2008 GOALS & OBJECTIVES: Continued until April Meeting V. ANNUAL MN PRESERVATION CONFERENCE: September 19 -20, 2008 Northfield, MN Member Fukuda departed the meeting. VI. CONCERN OF RESIDENTS: Traffic Calminq in Country Club District Bruce Christensen — 4515 Browndale Avenue Mr. Christensen explained that he represented a group of neighbors from the Country Club District who are challenging the traffic calming and streetscape changes approved for their neighborhood. Mr. Christensen reviewed the reasons his group was opposed to the plan. He pointed out that he felt the HPB was complicent in the approval of the project and asked that the Board rescind the Certificate of Appropriateness for the project. Chairman Rofidal explained that the Certificate of Appropriateness for the improvements to the infrastructure in the Country Club District was approved at the November meeting of the Board. Because the ten day appeal period passed with no appeals received, the Board's decision stands. That being the case, the Board can not rescind the Certificate of Appropriateness. He added that because the HPB is advisory to the City Council, the Council would need to direct the Board to reevaluate the project. William Horn — 4511 Browndale Avenue Mr. Horn opined that the subject traffic calming measures are addressing the concerns of a handful of residents and going against the will of the community. H.L. Saylor — 4900 Bruce Avenue Mr. Saylor stated that he supported a petition being circulated opposing the traffic calming measures in the district. He stated that due to a heavy work schedule, he was unaware of the situation and expressed concerns that the proposed traffic calming measures will cause problems for emergency vehicles and snow plows. n Minutes — March 11, 2008 Edina Heritage Preservation Board Ralph Tully — 4619 Bruce Avenue Mr. Tully expressed his opinion that a vast majority of the residents in the Country Club District don't agree with the traffic calming measures that have been approved. He urged the Board to support the cause of those opposing the plan. Joe Sullivan — 4504 Casco Avenue Mr. Sullivan explained that he too supported the petition opposing the traffic calming measures; and warned that changing traffic patterns will redirect traffic flow to areas of the district which previously had no problems. BOARD MEMBERS RESPONSES: Member Ferrara Member Ferrara explained that the traffic plan was presented as part of the utility project in the district. The HPB did not weigh in on whether or not the improvements were appropriate, rather how the improvements would impact the historic integrity of the neighborhood. Member Rehkamp Larson Member Rehkamp Larson stated that the changes proposed in the traffic section of the project were brought to the HPB as part of the requirements set out from the NE Traffic Study. The HPB was not given a choice as to whether the specific elements of the plan (i.e. speed humps, paved crosswalks, chokers, etc.) were appropriate in the district. The charge of the Board was to address how the changes would impact the district from an historic standpoint. Member Benson Member Benson agreed that the HPB was not asked to weigh in as to whether or not the proposed traffic calming measures were appropriate in the district; rather the consultant's wanted the HPB's advice on how the changes could be implemented with the least impact on the historic streetscapes. Member Blemaster Member Blemaster observed that a coalition of concerned residents have been researching the traffic situation in the district for many years. In 2005, this group made a presentation to the City Council in which they defined the need for traffic calming measures and asked that before the streets were upgraded without taking their concerns into consideration, that a study be done. The NE Traffic Study identified the traffic problems in the district and the project that was approved is a result of that research. N Minutes — March 11, 2008 Edina Heritage Preservation Board Member Rofidal Addressing the comment that there was inadequate notification of this project, Member Rofidal recited the list of notifications and meetings which took place from 2005 until approval of the project in 2007. Board Discussion Board members understood that they were not in a position to rescind the Certificate of Appropriateness that was approved for the traffic calming measures in the district. However, several members suggested that the Board submit a statement to the City Council explaining the rationale for approving the COA. Chairman Rofidal cautioned that a statement from the Heritage Preservation Board might not be appropriate at this time. Following a brief discussion, Member Rehkamp Larson moved that the HPB submit a letter to the City Council explaining that the COA for the traffic calming measures was approved with the understanding that the measures were required by the NE Traffic Study which had been approved by the City Council. Member Ferrara seconded the motion. Members Rehkamp Larson and Ferrara voted aye. Members Benson and Blemaster voted nay. Chairman Rofidal abstained. The motion was defeated. Chairman Rofidal pointed out that while the Board will not be submitting a letter to the City Council regarding this issue, board members do have to right to express their opinions to the Council if they so choose.

April 14, 2008 Re: Improvement No. BA -0342 Highlands NEIGHBORHOOD ROADWAY & UTILITY IMPROVEMENTS Dear Ms. Mangen, Mayor Hovland and City Council: In addition to our phone calls to each city councilmember, we submit this document for your urgent and serious consideration. Between my wife and me, we collectively have been Edina Highlands residents for 30+ years and believe in maintaining and building on the distinction of our community. We believe the proposed Highlands neighborhood "improvements" to be poorly defined and considered and object to the proposed wasteful and - imprudent expenditures. Particularly considering the current state of our economy, which is not forecast to recover in the near future, now is not the time to amplify and exploit city projects. The proposal is very likely to lower the value of many properties by, among other reasons, reduced lot sizes, narrower roads and limited street parking. It is not likely to increase home values, particularly considering the state of the local economy which, per both government and private industry analysis and forecasts, will take years, if not a decade to recover. The value of our property at 5216 Duncraig Road will not increase by the amount of the proposed "improvements" and may be substantially reduced. Therefore, the City cannot impose a special assessment against our property. Minn. Stat. Sec. 429.051 permits the imposition of a special assessment against property benefited by the improvement ONLY "based upon benefits received." As a matter of law: "The benefit received from an improvement is the increase in market value of the benefited land." Eagle Creek Townhomes LLP v. City of Shakopee. 614 N.W.2d 246 (Minn. Ct. App., 2000) (citing Buzick v. City o Blaine, 505 N.W.2d 51, 53). "An increase in market value is the difference between what a willing buyer would pay a willing seller for the property before the improvement and after the improvement_" Id (citing EHW Properties tip.

SEC. 429.031, subd. 1 (b), DESCRIBING THE METHODOLOGY THE CITY HAS USED TO CALCULATE THE PROPOSED SPECIAL ASSESSMENT AGAINST OUR HOME PRIOR TO ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION ORDER THE RVIPROVEMENT. In addition to objecting to imposition of a special assessment against our home for more than the increase in market value from the proposed "improvements" we object to the proposed project for the following reasons: We oppose the 8" road base. Replacing the existing 4 -5" base roadway base with an 8" base road will cause more extensive and expensive water main repair work every year. At the City Informational Meeting on February 13, 2008, we were told that annual Highlands neighborhood water main breaks are due to "settling" of the neighborhood and will continue until the neighborhood fully settles. Installing an 8" base will increase the cast of and time required to, repair annual water main Edina City Clerk, Mayor and City Council 2 April 14, 2008 . breaks. Tearing up the new road every year will compromise its integrity and shorten its useful life. Such improvements should wait until the neighborhood has fully settled. We oppose the reduction in size of the roadways and neighborhood access. Reducing the size of the entrance and roadways would decrease, rather than increase safety. Narrowing Ayrshire Boulevard from Vernon Avenue to Lochloy Drive is proposed. Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429 specifically authorizes a municipality to "acquire, open and widen any street" but does not specifically authorize a municipality to "narrow" streets (see M.S. 429.021). Wider roads are safer roads due to improved visibility and maneuverability. The "improvement" will create parking problems where none exist, including a "no parking" zone, as well as generally less safe driving conditions. We oppose the proposal that would replace parts of the sewer system not in need of repair. We were informed at the Informational Meeting that there is "nothing" wrong with the present neighborhood sewer system and that it has another "20 730 years" useful life. The City acknowledged at the Informational Meeting that replacement will not prevent continuing water main breaks. In 20 -30 years the roads will have to be torn up to replace the part not replaced now. We oppose the proposed sidewalk. It does not improve location or access for MTC and school bus stop patrons. Adults and children will still be waiting in the street (including where Ayrshire is to be narrowed) for the morning and afternoon school bus routes. Most adults and children going to the park (those living at 60 out of 77 assessed properties), if they use the proposed sidewalk, will have to cross Ayrshire twice, once to get to the sidewalk and again to get from the sidewalk to the park. Not only will the proposed sidewalk be rarely, if ever used, it is going to change the integrity of and be an eyesore in a beautiful neighborhood. Maintenance will be a continuing waste of public funds. It is a waste of public and private funds to redesign the neighborhood for safety issues when simple solutions such as; cross- walk's, stop signs or reduced speed signs can be implemented at a fraction of the cost with the same or likely better and more effective results. In sum: Whereas replacing the existing road may be appropriate, including new curbs and gutters where nonexistent or inadequate, increasing the difficulty and expense to repair annual water main breaks by putting in an 8" base is irresponsible. The proposed sidewalk is a waste of money both in installation and future maintenance. Most importantly, because the safety of residents and those who access our neighborhood to drive their children to and from athletic events at Highlands Park must be of paramount consideration, the present width of Ayrshire Boulevard and present design of the entrance at Vernon Avenue MUST BE PRESERVED. The prudent solution for both the City of Edina and the Highlands neighborhood will involve the prioritization and execution of necessary repairs and the proposal of a desired improvement plan for future consideration.

The proposal is likely to lower the value of many properties by reduced lot sizes, narrower roads and limited street parking. The value of our property (5212 Duncraig Road) will not increase by the proposed "improvements." THEREFORE, the City cannot impose a special assessment against our property. Minn. Stat.

OUR HOME PRIOR TO ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTIO In addition to objecting to imposition of a special assessment against our home for more than the increase in market value from the proposed "improvements" we object to the proposed project for the following reasons: Replacing the existing 4 -5" base roadway base with an 8" base road will cause more extensive and expensive water main repair work every year. At the City Informational Meeting on February 13, 2008, we were told that annual Highlands neighborhood water main breaks are due to "settling" of the neighborhood and will continue until the neighborhood fully settles. Installing an 8" base will increase the cost of, and time required to, repair annual water main breaks. Tearing up the new road every year will compromise its integrity and shorten its useful life. The improvement should wait until the neighborhood has fully settled. Narrowing Ayrshire Boulevard from Vernon Avenue to Lochloy Drive is proposed. Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429 specifically authorizes a municipality to "acquire, open and widen any street" but does not specifically authorize a municipality to "narrow" streets (see M.S. 429.021).

The "improvement" will create parking problems where none exist, including a "no parking" zone, as well as generally less safe driving conditions. Edina City Clerk, Mayor and City Council 2 April 15, 2008 Retaining the present Ayrshire entrance at Vernon Avenue is necessary for neighborhood ingress and egress. The wide entrance allows turning off Vernon, where cars travel at 40 -50 mph, into the neighborhood from a slowed speed rather than a full stop when necessary. The proposed change would force residents to come to a full stop in the middle of a curve on Vernon to turn into the neighborhood, at greater risk of getting slammed from behind. It will also force cars to make a sharp turn from a full stop onto Vernon, an increased risk of being broadsided. Safer ingress (but still unsafe especially in bad weather) from Vernon after the "improvement" would require a turn lane. After "improvement" there will be no daytime or early evening safe egress from Ayrshire onto Vernon unless a stoplight is installed. The proposal would replace about half of the sewer system. Either the entire system should be replaced or none. We were informed at the Informational Meeting that there is "nothing" wrong with the present neighborhood sewer system and that it has another "20 -30 years" useful life. The City acknowledged at the Informational Meeting that replacement will not prevent continuing water main breaks. In 20 -30 years the roads will have to be torn up to replace the part not replaced now. A sidewalk is proposed for the wrong side of Ayrshire. The MTC bus stop at Vernon, the side of the street where children wait for the school. bus in the morning, and Highlands Park are on the other side of Ayrshire. Children will still be waiting in the street (including where Ayrshire is to be narrowed) for the morning school bus. When school children are dropped off in the afternoon, they either are dropped at their driveways on the proposed sidewalk side or immediately cross to the nonsidewalk side to get home. Children attending. Highlands Elementary cross Ayrshire and a neighborhood yard or through the woods to get to the school. How many children will walk a quarter of a mile out of their way to use a sidewalk instead of a few hundred feet by cutting across a yard or through the woods? Most children going to the park (those living at 60 out of 77 assessed properties), if they use the proposed sidewalk, will have to cross Ayrshire twice, once to get to the sidewalk and again to get from the sidewalk to the park. Both from memories of my youth and my observations as a parent, few children will go out of their way to use a sidewalk. I doubt MTC riders will do so. Not only will the proposed sidewalk be rarely, if ever used, it is going to be an eyesore in a beautiful neighborhood, and maintenance will be a continuing waste of public funds.

T i y e 09 Lochloy Drive Edina MN 55436 429.05 1, Minnesota Statute 2007 Minnesota Statutes Page 1 of 1 429.051 APPORTIONMENT OF COST. The cost of any improvement, or any part thereof, may be assessed upon property benefited by the improvement, based upon the benefits received, whether or not the property abuts on the improvement and whether or not any part of the cost of the improvement is paid from the county state -aid highway fund, the municipal state -aid street fund, or the trunk highway fund. The area assessed may be less than but may not exceed the area proposed to be assessed as stated in the notice of hearing on the improvement, except as provided below. The municipality may pay such portion of the cost of the improvement as the council may determine from general ad valorem tax levies or from other revenues or funds of the municipality available for the purpose. The municipality may subsequently reimburse itself for all or any of the portion of the cost of a water, storm sewer, or sanitary sewer improvement so paid by levying additional assessments upon any properties abutting on but not previously assessed for the improvement, on notice and hearing as provided for the assessments initially made. To the extent that such an improvement benefits nonabutting properties which may be served by the improvement when one or more later extensions or improvements are made but which are not initially assessed therefor, the municipality may also reimburse itself by adding all or any of the portion of the cost so paid to the assessments levied for any of such later extensions or improvements, provided that notice that such additional amount will be assessed is included in the notice of hearing on the making of such extensions or improvements. The additional assessments herein authorized may be made whether or not the properties assessed were included in the area described in the notice of hearing on the making of the original improvement. In any city of the fourth class electing to proceed under a home rule charter as provided in this chapter, which charter provides for a board of water commissioners and authorizes such board to assess a water frontage tax to defray the cost of construction of water mains, such board may assess the tax based upon the benefits received and without regard to any charter limitation on the amount that may be assessed for each lineal foot of property abutting on the water main. The water frontage tax shall be imposed according to the procedure and, except as herein provided, subject to the limitations of the charter of the city.

C4 -99- 201... Page 4 of 6 completed sale to Johnson. No evidence indicates that PACT ever transferred legal title of the property to Johnson Development; moreover, it was PACT, not Johnson Development, that subsequently transferred the property to Stuart. [ 1 ] Because the sale never closed, the city's argument that PACT and Johnson Development intended the city to be a third -party beneficiary is irrelevant. Eagle Creek is not bound by their agreement and has standing to pursue the assessment appeal. 2. Eagle Creek's Appraisal The district court has broad discretion in ruling whether or not to admit an appraisal and a reviewing court will not overturn that ruling unless it is based on an erroneous interpretation of the law or it constitutes an abuse of discretion. See Buzick v. City of Blaine, 505 N.W.2d 51, 53 (Minn. 1993). The city argues that the district court committed an error of law by admitting evidence of Strachota's appraisal and by relying upon it. Minn.. Stat. § 429.051 (1998) provides: The cost of any [public] improvement * * * may be assessed upon property benefited by the improvement, based upon the benefits received * * *. The benefit received from an improvement is the increase in market value of the benefited land. Buzick, 505 N.W.2d at 53. An increase in market value is the difference between what a willing buyer would pay a willing seller for the property before the improvement and after the improvement. EHW Properties v. City of Eagan, 503 N.W.2d 135, 139 (Minn. App. 1993). Market value is calculated based on the highest and best use of the land. Present use of the land is not the controlling factor in determining whether the land has received benefit from the improvement. Rather, the test is whether the land could be used for purposes which would benefit from the improvement. Buzick v. City of Blaine, 491 N.W.2d 923, 925 (Minn. App. 1992) (quotations and citations omitted), aff'd, 505 N.W.2d 51 (Minn. 1993). Characteristically, an appraiser in a special - assessment case is to give two values to the property: the first is the value of the property before the public improvement is in place and the second is the value of the property after the improvement is in place. Strachota was to determine the benefit to the property as of August 1998. He did this by assuming that a townhouse complex was to be built on the land, even though as of August 1998 the construction of the complex had just started. (As far as we can determine from the record, the project has just been, or will be, completed this year.) He then assumed that the price a willing buyer would pay for the property in August 1998 would be determined by the condition of the property as of the completion of the complex in 2000. Based on these assumptions, he appraised the before value by looking at a townhouse complex without the public improvements, which would be a project with 166 units. Similarly, he determined the after value by looking at a complex with the public improvements, which would be a project with only 152 units. The essence of Strachota's appraisal, and the respondent's position, is that due to the particular land configuration and the streets and sewers existing before the public improvements, the improvements were not necessary and in fact-resulted in a decrease in the value, because the landowner could only put 152 units in the complex, rather than 166.

Subdivision 1. Preparation of plans, notice of hearing. (a) Before the municipality awards a contract for an improvement or orders it made by day labor, or before the municipality may assess any portion of the cost of an improvement to be made under a cooperative agreement with the state or another political subdivision for sharing the cost of making the improvement, the council shall hold a public hearing on the proposed improvement following two publications in the newspaper of a notice stating the time and place of the hearing, the general nature of the improvement, the estimated cost, and the area proposed to be assessed. The two publications must be a week apart, and the hearing must be at least three days after the second publication. Not less than ten days before the hearing, notice of the hearing must also be mailed to the owner of each parcel within the area proposed to be assessed and must contain a statement that a reasonable estimate of the impact of the assessment will be available at the hearing, but failure to give mailed notice or any defects in the notice does not invalidate the proceedings. For the purpose of giving mailed notice, owners are those shown as owners on the records of the county auditor or, in any county where tax statements are mailed by the county treasurer, on the records of the county treasurer; but other appropriate records may be used for this purpose. For properties that are tax exempt or subject to taxation on a gross earnings basis and are not listed on the records of the county auditor or the county treasurer, the owners may be ascertained by any practicable means, and mailed notice must be given them as provided in this subdivision. (b) Before the adoption of a resolution ordering the improvement, the council shall secure from the city engineer or some other competent person of its selection a report advising it in a preliminary way as to whether the proposed improvement is necessary, cost - effective, and feasible and as to whether it should best be made as proposed or in connection with some other improvement. The report must also include the estimated cost of the improvement as recommended. A reasonable estimate of the total amount to be assessed, and a description of the methodology used to calculate individual assessments for affected parcels, must be available at the hearing. No error or omission in the report invalidates the proceeding unless it materially prejudices the interests of an owner. (c) If the report is not prepared by an employee of a municipality, the compensation for preparing the report under this subdivision must be based on the following factors: (1) the time and labor required; (2) the experience and knowledge of the preparer; (3) the complexity and novelty of the problems involved; and (4) the extent of the responsibilities assumed. (d) The compensation must not be based primarily on a percentage of the estimated cost of the improvement. (e) The council may also take other steps prior to the hearing, including, among other things, the preparation of plans and specifications and the advertisement for bids that will in its judgment provide helpful information in determining the desirability and feasibility of the improvement. (f) The hearing may be adjourned from time to time, and a resolution ordering the improvement may be adopted at any time within six months after the date of the hearing by vote of a majority of all members of the council when the improvement has been petitioned for by the owners of not less than 35 percent in frontage of the real property abutting on the streets named in the petition as the location of the improvement. When there has been no such petition, the resolution may be adopted only by vote of four -fifths of all members of the council; provided that if the mayor of the municipality is a member of the council but has no vote or votes only in case of a tie, the mayor is not deemed to be a member for the purpose of determining a four -fifths majority vote. (g) The resolution ordering the improvement may reduce, but not increase, the extent of the improvement as stated in the notice of hearing. Subd. 2. Approval by park board or utilities commission.
