Council Meeting Minutes
-3-
August 14, 2007
Mayor Goettel stated she has had neighborhood discussions regarding the HUB and
concerns regarding evening traffic and crime in that area. She requested updating the HUB site be
considered after the Penn Avenue redevelopment.
Mayor Goettel requested the technical difficulties with the sound system experienced at the
last City Council meeting be addressed.
Council Member Rosenberg requested traffic issues in the Madison and Sheridan Parks
areas be addressed by the Transportation Commission. She specifically mentioned the 6400
block of Morgan Avenue having traffic counts and speed monitoring.
Council Member Rosenberg requested the traffic issues at 75th Street and Morgan/Newton
Avenues be addressed by the Transportation Commission, including calming measures.
Council Member Rosenberg requested staff check on the YMCA redevelopment project in
Edina having a connecting street through Richfield.
Council Member Kilian discussed on-street parking issues, including a proposal and action
to address the numerous residential complaints, which could be reviewed by the Transportation
Commission.
Council Member Wroge agreed this matter should be looked into but that he did have a
problem with odd/even street snow plowing because there is a good system in place now. He
would like to see better enforcement during snowstorms.
Council Member Wroge suggested surveying other communities who have restricted on-
street parking and provide that information prior to the September 11 City Council meeting.
Council Member Kilian discussed the proposal of no overnight parking on all City streets
one night each week. Resident complaints would not be necessary because police could go
up/down the streets and enforce. All vehicles could be put someplace. He suggested easing into
the no-parking with warnings issued first and license plates tracked for repeat offenders.
Council Member Wroge said overnight on-street parking should be banned but not only one
night a week.
Council Member Kilian continued the one night a week ban could be a six-month test in a
part of the City and then evaluated. Some parts of the City may find no parking difficult and need
some other option.
Council Member Rosenberg stated she opposed a total ban because some parts of the City
have no garages, driveways and are small lots with alleys.
Council Member Sandahl said she had no objection to reviewing restricting overnight on-
street parking but every area of the City has its own issues. She agreed to having the
Transportation Commission develop a proposal and test area.
Mayor Goettel said she did not oppose review by the Transportation Commission. There
are always tradeoffs in overnight parking bans with visitors and guests.
Council Member Wroge said the ban could exclude areas with alleys.
The City Council consensus was to have the Transportation Commission review options for
banning overnight street parking and conduct a survey of other communities, including
Minneapolis.

Council Member Rosenberg questioned if the conditional use permit (CUP) was necessary if
the roundabout was not chosen as the final streetscape for the 66th Street/Portland Avenue
intersection.
City Attorney Thomson explained, if the roundabout is not the design, this right-of-way
(ROW) acquisition would still be required and perhaps, some additional land if the City moved to an
alternative design. Based upon preliminary review, all the proposed land in the CUP is to provide
parking, which would be available under another design. If additional land was needed, it would be
along the west side of Portland Avenue.

Commission, said the Commission's preference was to have the bridge versus a culvert as an
amenity to the park but it was not discussed at great length so the impression was that it was not a
concern.
Pete Willenbring, WSB, discussed the difference between installing a bridge versus culvert,
including costs, safety, aesthetics, maintenance, hydraulic capacity.

runoff by 1 %. He discussed the drainage and stormwater cleaning solutions that are required.
Public Works Director Eastling discussed the swale depths, easier clean up of floatables on
the outside of the lake. He said the character of the lake may not change substantially. An
improved maintenance management plan is proposed and there is a responsibility on the local level
to maintain cleaner water.
Council Member Kilian said the cleaner water ultimately flows into the river and there is a
responsibility to be part of the cleaning process.
Mayor Goettel asked if there was a written maintenance plan.
Recreation Services Director Topitzhofer stated the Community Services Commission was
clear on having a written plan and he reviewed the proposed draft, including mowing, garbage
collection, trash removal in dried areas, sweeping paths, fallen trees, stormwater inlet/outlet,
brushing perimeter to increase visibility.
Council Member Wroge suggested the garbage cans be moved away from the benches.
Eva Bjerke, 1020 Rae Drive, spoke about the need for a more than once a month clean up
for duck and geese droppings on the walking path and expressed concern regarding mosquito
control.
Recreation Services Director Topitzhofer discussed the proposed increase in vegetation to
keep the ducks and geese away from the path and the educating of residents to not feed them.
Council Member Rosenberg said this maintenance plan sounds good on paper but there
should be a timeline to scrutinize it and provide input to changes.
Council Member Sandahl requested staff report back to the City Council with an evaluation
on maintenance efforts and invite residents to provide feedback.

and geese. .

Council Member Wroge questioned when and how often the pedestrian counts were taken.
Public Works Director Eastling said it was spot checked and that it varied widely day to day.
Council Member Wroge stated a Transportation Commission Member told him the
commission does not take costs into account when making a recommendation. Mr. Wroge said
they need to consider the costs.
Council Member Wroge discussed the recent traffic and pedestrian data he collected while
observing the 63rd/64th Streets and Lyndale Avenue area. He said the crosswalk on 64th Street
should stay because he did not see anything to support the cost to change it. Another crosswalk
can be put in later when there is a better idea of the land use on the west side of Lyndale Avenue.
Council Member Sandahl clarified, as Transportation Commission liaison, the commission
does consider cost when it's known.
Council Member Kilian said if the vacant Lyndale Garden Center site is redeveloped, the
natural crossing will be at 64th Street and Lyndale Avenue again. He said he did not want to do
something that will cost more later.
Council Member Sandahl asked if there are condemnation costs.
Public Works Director Eastling said yes.
