gasoline station on the SE Corner of Salem Avenue and Minnetonka Boulevard, and
moving the old store building now on that corner to the east end of the lot, was
read.
Concurring in the recommendation -of the Planning Commission, it was moved
:by Trustee Middleton, seconded by Trustee Holmgren, the Building Inspector was
:authorized to grant a permit for the erection of a gas station on the corner of
:Salem Avenue and-Minrietonka Boulevard (SE Corner), by the following roll call

Salem Avenue would have to pass the station to go to the Park Hill School. He
asked if the 20 foot setback would or could (in front of the grocery store) be
used for a driveway. The answer was yes, the same as at Kay Motors, Garden Village
driveway, etc. Said that this makes too many driveways for children to have to
cross with out adding more outlets at the gas station. There are a number of
renters in this area who do not want the gas station.
Mr. Edelman, representing Mr. Berkwitz spoke in favor of the station. He
said that this property has been zoned for commercial use since 1932• The owners
are old time residents. He does not -believe that the gas station will lower the
values on nearby residential property. The Minneapolis report for 1951 shows
that gas stations are not more hazardous: Mr. Woods of the Texaco Company
showed a picture of a Texaco Station. Mr. Berkwitz said what is best for St. Louis
Park should be our aim. We could build five stores on this spot (150 ft., 30 ft.
stores), and that means traffic. A Texaco Station wouldn't bring nearly as much
traffic; and,the present taxes of $$100.00 on a gas station would bring in about
$$500.00. Mr. Woods of Texaco Company said cars on the Belt Line need a gas
station. We have 571 stations, and in the past four years there have been no
accidents.
Maurice Silverman, 2912 Salem Avenue -said he has protested against things
in this Council in the past, due to selfish reasons. Protested three different
projects, and not any of the things happened that -he brought up in his protesta-
tions. This improvement will be a definite improvement for the area. We are
sympathic with the folks here tonight, but feel their fears are unfounded. The
Berkwitz family do not want to trade dollars for children's lives, and if they
thought it would, they wouldn't ask for this permit. Mr. Woods explained that
they have two stations in the Park one at Excelsior and Lynn, and one at Excelsior
and Xenwood. They have had no complaints about reduced property values. Mr.
Andres of Calhoun Realty Company was asked if gas -station would depreciate the
nearby property: He said yes, to the first house, but it would be the same if it
was a store.
Trustee Jorvig asked if the Council would object to store buildings at this
location. Trustee Bolmgren, said no. It's the open driveways that make the
traffic hazard. Mr. Edelman said that stores would cause more of a traffic hazard.
Trustee Bol.mgren said the solution to our tax problem is not a gas station on
every corner. Mr. Edelman said that children have not been hurt with the present
6 driveways.
Mrs. Phillip Dennet, 2940 Salem Avenue spoke in opposition to proposed gas
station. Said the lights from cars would annoy residents in the area, it would
lower the valuation of surrounding property.
Building Inspector's Report for May, 1952
The Building Inspector's report for the month of May, 1952, showing a total
of 134 building permits issued, totaling $1,180,550.00, was read and ordered

Group Re: Building of Inferior Houses on Northside
A group appeared regarding the low cost inferior houses being built in

Avenue appeared, said Fine had started building these houses in an area where
the houses were already built for $4000.00 and up, -and no permits taken out
before the work was started. - He also said we should have a better building
code, and the present one enforced. If it can't be done legally, it should be
done otherwise.
Harlan Strong, attorney for Richmond Addition residents asked if deed
restrictions were made to call for five room dwellings, who can enforce same?
Village Attorney, E.. -T. Montgomery said anyone home owner can start action. Mr.
Strong suggested that the Zoning Ordinance be made more specific, and state the
minimum number of rooms in a residence.
The question was asked "how many in the room received copies of the 1951
Financial Statement." No one in the room said yes.
The group stated that they represent more than $1,000,000.00 worth of homes
on the Northside, and feel the Council should protect them. Asked if the Council
would do something about the present ordinance, and what were their plans with
regard to the present situation.
The Council agreed to review this matter with the Building Department,
the Village Attorney, and possibly some outside authority.
