Grimes 1999 the City adopted the current General Land Use Plan

rec end ning the properties even though state statute requires that zoning
maps alland use plan maps be consistent. He explained that staff is now
recomm these properties be rezoned because there has been a request to
construct 175 units of housing which is approximately 30 units per acre. He stated that
staff is recommending approval of this rezoning because it is consistent .with the General
Land Use Plan map dating back to 1999.
Kluchka asked why the City is proposing this rezoning now. Grimes stated that the City is
proposing this rezoning now because United Properties is proposing to build 175 units of
senior housing and the City's General Land Use Plan map and Zoning map have to
match. He stated that this rezoning probably should have been done sooner.

Schmidgall asked if it would be an option to make the General Land Use Plan map
match the Zoning map instead of the other way around. Grimes stated that the City
Council has the right to change the General Land Use Plan map how they want. The
current policy of the City as shown on the General Land Use Plan map is high density
residential. Within the past year, the Planning Commission has suggested as part of the
Comprehensive Plan update that these properties remain designated high density
because this is a logical location for higher density development in Golden Valley.

Patty B 414 Golden Valley Road, said she did not receive a hearing notice for
this meeting or for the meeting held by the applicant last Wednesday. She said at the
applicant's meeting they were told that the Comprehensive Plan is calling for high
density on these properties and that is what the City wants. She said she doesn't see
how the City can pre-approve things without getting citizen input. She said she was also
told by the applicant that they will not make any money from the 74-unit co-op building.
She said that the proposed buildings will be too dense and questioned how many acres
the project includes. Keysser stated that the project will be on 4.7 acres. Burrets
expressed concern about how many people would be allowed to live on an acre.

Grimes explained that the R-4 zoning district allows housing in buildings up to 8 stories
or 96 feet in height before requiring a Conditional Use Permit. He said in terms of density
generally 30 to 35 units per acre is considered to be pretty high density. He referred to
the Calvary apartments and co-op property and stated that that has approximately 35 to
40 units per acre and is 10 or 11 stories in height and is the tallest development in
Golden Valley.
Burrets questioned why the applicant wouldn't just build a little bit bigger assisted living
building and forget about the co-op building if they are not going to make money
from it anyway. She stated people are very unhappy and this is distur . 'ves. She
added that it isn't that people don't want this type of use it's the siz , J hel and
design that are the issues. She said the City should be looking f g oth than

Fredric 306 Golden Valley Road, stated that he assumes the notification process
followed all of the requirements. Grimes explained that the City of Golden Valley mails
hearing notices to all property owners within 500 feet. He added that the state statute
requires hearing notices be mailed to property owners within 250 feet.
Eleanore Kolar, 6186 Golden Valley Road, said she doesn't believe there has been any
misrepresentation; people are just expressing their opinions.

Mary Carson, 1601 Kelly Drive, said she drives by this area constantly and if something
is going to be done it should be done tastefully because it impacts a lot of people in
Golden Valley. She said from what she has heard this project is not well planned. They
are going to come in, build, then leave because it is business to them. She said she is
concerned about the loss of trees and added that there has to be a way to fit the
architecture into the land.
Dale Bates, 6140 Golden Valley Road suggested the developers build green roofs in
order to release oxygen and save money on heating costs.

Schmidgall stated that the City wasn't thinking when it designated these properties high
density on the General Land Use Plan map because he can't imagine a 96-foot tall
building in this location. He said he thinks medium density would be better in this location
particularly because the zoning to the west is R-1 Single Family. He said it looks like this
proposal is being squeezed on to these properties and he thinks the General Land Use
Plan map needs to be corrected not the Zoning map.

McCarty said he is concerned that if this property is rezoned to R-4 and this project
doesn't go through then someone could build a 96-foot tall building. He suggested
reconsidering the General Land Use Plan map designation.
Eck said the issue to consider is if R-4 is appropriate in this location because if the land
use is changed to R-3 it would shoot this project down.
Kluchka questioned if rezoning the properties to R-3 would make the apartments "not

Keysser said he is comfortable with rezoning the property knowing the City has the PUD
process for protection.
McCarty said he is curious as to what the Douglas Drive Corridor study will find because
this project will set the tone for the rest of the corridor if this project goes forward.

Keysser stated that the Douglas Drive Corridor study committee has looked at maps to
see if change was wanted or not. Hogeboom added that the consensus of the Douglas
Drive Corridor study committee was to change these properties to high density.
Kluchka said this is one of the better places the City has to do this type of development
and he is inclined to support the rezoning. However, he is concerned about traffic
because nobody yields at the corner of Golden Valley Road and Douglas Drive, which
needs to be thought about as a part of the Douglas Drive Corridor study. He said they

proposal is consistent with what the City is calling for. He referred to the City's housing
plan and noted that it also calls for providing an alternate form of housing. He stated that

issue of height and explained that the City measures height from grade to the mid-point
of the highest gable so the proposed buildings will be from 46 feet to 56 feet in height.
He stated that previous speakers brought up the issue of "green" development and
suggested the developer discuss their plans. However, regarding storm water
management they have gone above and beyond the City's requirements. He stated that
the City will be requiring maintenance agreements for the ponds and for the pervious
pavers they are proposing. The applicant will also be required to do a tree preservation
plan. He referred to the site plan and discussed a small triangular area to the north of

referred omment that was made about not needing the co-op building and
clarified that they do need the density of both buildings to make the project work,
however the assisted living building will probably be more profitable. He referred to a site
plan and stated that there will be one enclosed parking space per unit for the co-op
building and the co-op building is "for sale" housing, not rentals.
Hall referred to the concern expressed regarding traffic and stated that the use they are
proposing is one of the lower traffic generating uses that can be found. He stated that
they have done traffic studies in other cities where they have similar projects.

Hall showed a rendering of what the proposed buildings will look like and explained that
the colors shown are not the final color choices. He stated that their buildings use a
variety of materials such as stucco, Hardie Board siding and stone. He said they
welcome the neighbors input on colors and materials. Keysser asked about the roof
materials. Hall stated that the roofs will be a dark color, asphalt shingle.
Keysser asked about the co-op prices. Hall said the co-op units will sell for approximately
$185 per square foot. Keysser asked why they are proposing co-ops instead of
condominiums. Hall stated that there is a financial advantage for a co-op er because
a co-op has a master mortgage, not individual mortgages like a condo e
explained that co-op documents are set up to give residents a say in erty is

Keysser asked if there will be a LEED designation on this project. Hall said no because it
is very difficult to get LEED certification on residential property. He stated that they will
have a central boiler to increase efficiency in the assisted living building and that these
proposed units will be more energy efficient than a single-family home.
Kluchka asked if there are plans to install bike racks. Hall stated that all of their buildings
have several bike racks in the garage level.

Keysser asked about the location of the nearest bus stop. Grimes said there is a bus
stop located across the street.
Eck asked if the residents would be able to purchase an additional parking space if they
would like. Hall said not in the co-op building because there will be one parking space

configuration they would lose density and they would have to have a T-shaped building.
He said that they did consider turning the buildings and that this project as gone through
several versions before the one being proposed. Keysser stated that the Douglas Drive
side of the buildings looks good to him and questioned if anything could be done along
the Golden Valley Road side to help break-up the fagade along the street. Hall stated
that could have bump-outs in the fagade along Golden Valley Road.

Fariborz Afsharjavan, JSSH Architects, Architect for the project, stated that some of the
issues with the buildings have to do with the setback requirements, the density and the
parking requirements. He said the buildings are broken up as much as possible and the
site doesn't allow them to do anything differently. He said they are breaking up the
fac;ade with the materials they are using. He added that the end user is going to drive the
look of this project because people living in these units don't want to look at cars on

Sienko asked why they are proposing so much parking if all the spots are not needed.
She suggested they put in more green space instead. Kluchka said it is a matter of use
versus capacity. Hall stated that visitors won't have access to the underground garage
spaces. He explained that they could probably get rid of half of the underground parking
under the assisted living building but it is not cost effective to dig out only half of the
underground area. He said he does feel that they will need all of the surface parking.
Sienko said her concern is the increased traffic on Golden Valley Road. She said she
has concerns about people passing each other on Golden Valley Road when they have
to slow down for their driveways. She stated that Golden Valley Road w . t replaced

is not appropriate with one entrance and it is something that needs to be thought about.

Burrets asked how the property is going to be lit. Hall said they would follow the City's

Burrets said she is surprised this property is as expensive as it is considering the blight.
She asked how the taxes are figured on co-ops versus condos and how it compares to

Informal Public Hearing on Preliminary Plan for Minor Subdivision of
1825 Quail Avenue North - Peter Knaeble (Golden Valley Land Co.), Applicant
Summary of Request
Peter Knaeble of Golden Valley Land Co. is proposing to subdivide the property located at
1825 Quail Avenue North (formerly 4915 Golden Valley Road), into three separate lots. Mr.
Knaeble has proposed to create two additional residential lots of record to the north and south
of the existing home. The existing home would remain in place as proposed Lot 2. The total
area of all three proposed lots is .91 acres (39,714 square feet.)
If the proposed subdivision were to occur, each new lot would exceed the required 10,000
square foot minimum set forth by the Zoning Code. Proposed Lot 1 (southern-most lot) would
consist of approximately 12,618 square feet of land, proposed Lot 2 (middle lot) would consist
of approximately 13,237 square feet of land, and proposed Lot 3 (northern-most lot) would
consist of approximately 13,859 square feet of land. The existing home that would be located
on Lot 2 would meet all setback requirements for the new lot. Setback boundaries on the other
two lots would allow standard homes to be built without variance from City Code.
Qualification as a Minor Subdivision
The proposed three lot subdivision qualifies as a minor subdivision because the property
located at 1825 Quail Avenue North is part of a recorded plat. In addition, this proposed
subdivision will produce fewer than four lots and will not create need for public improvements
(such as street reconstruction.) The applicant has submitted the required information to the
City that allows for the subdivision to be evaluated as a minor subdivision.
Staff Review of Minor Subdivision
Staff has evaluated this lot subdivision request as a minor subdivision. This request creates
three lots that each exceed the minimum lot requirements in the R-1 Single Family Residential
Zoning District. (Minimum requirements are that lots must be at least 10,000 square feet in
area with 80 feet of width at the front yard setback line which is 35 feet from the street right-of-
way.)
The applicant has submitted a survey for the property located at 1825 Quail Avenue North that
denote proposed lot layout and setback boundaries following lot division. These documents
provide the City with information necessary to evaluate the minor subdivision. All documents
show the existing home at 1825 Quail Avenue as part of future lot configuration.
City Engineer Jeff Oliver, PE, has submitted a memorandum dated September 12,2008
regarding recommendations from the Public Works Department concerning this request.
Requirements set forth in this memo are itemized in the staff-recommended action area of this
report.
Qualification Governing Approval as a Minor Subdivision
According to Section 12.50 of the City's Subdivision Regulations, the following are the
regulations governing approval of minor subdivisions with staff comment related to this
request:
1. Minor subdivisions shall be denied if the proposed lots do not meet the requirements of the
appropriate zonino district. All proposed lots will meet the requirements set forth by the R1
Single Family Residential Zoning District.
2. A minor subdivision may be denied if the City Engineer determines that the lots are not
buildable. There is already an existing home on proposed lot 2 of the subdivision area.
According to the City Engineer, the other two lots are adequate for the construction of a
home. City services can be made available to all lots through developer requirements.
3. A minor subdivision may be denied if there are no sewer and water connections available
or if it is determined by the City Engineer that an undue strain will be placed on City utility
systems by the addition of the new lots. Sewer and water connections are already provided
to the existing home on proposed Lot 2. If subdivided, proposed Lot 3 would retain water
service from an existing line on Golden Valley Road. The other two proposed lots would
receive water from a line on Quail Avenue. All sanitary sewer service would be provided
from a line along Quail Avenue.
4. Approval of the minor subdivision may require the grantino of certain easements to the
City. The final plat must show all necessary easements as required by the City Engineer
and City ordinances.
5. If public agencies other than the City have iurisdiction of the streets adiacent to the minor
subdivision, the aoencies will be oiven the opportunities to comment. Hennepin County has
reviewed the preliminary plat and has found it to be acceptable as submitted per their letter
dated September 11,2008.
6. The City may ask for review of title if required by the City Attorney for dedication of
certain easements. The City Attorney will determine if such a title review is necessary
prior to approval of the final plat.
7. The minor subdivision may be subiect to park dedication requirements. In this case, a park
dedication fee will be paid by the developer prior to final plat approval. The fee amount will
be $1,100 as per City Code requirements.
Recommended Action
The Planning Department recommends approval of the minor subdivision with the conditions
listed below:
1. The City Attorney will determine if a title review is necessary prior to approval of the final
plat.
2. A park dedication fee in the amount of $1,100 shall be paid prior to final plat approval.
3. A Subdivision Agreement will be drafted for review and approval by the City Council that
will include issues found in the City Engineer's memo dated September 12, 2008.

Quail Woods
Subject:
Public Works staff has reviewed the plans for the proposed Quail Woods residential
subdivision. This proposed development is located south of Golden Valley Road and
west of Quail Avenue.
Preliminary Plat and Site Plan
This proposed development includes subdivision of an oversized lot with an existing
single-family home into three single-family lots. The proposed plans include retaining
the existing home, but demolishing the existing detached garage and constructing a
new garage.
Golden Valley Road, adjacent to this proposed development to the north, is a Hennepin
County road (County Road 66). Therefore, the plans must be reviewed by the County.
The developer will be required to dedicate any additional right-of-way or easements
identified by the County during its review. The developer had submitted preliminary
plans to Hennepin County for comments, and a small right-of-way dedication is shown
on the preliminary plat just west of Quail Avenue. This right-of-way dedication is parallel
to the centerline of Golden Valley Road and creates a consistent right-of-way across
this property.
The final plat for this development must include easements on all property lines
consistent with the City's Subdivision Ordinance. These required easements are shown
in an acceptable manner on the preliminary plat.
The driveways to all three of the lots within this development will connect to Quail
Avenue, which was reconstructed by the City as part of its 2006 Pavement
Management Project (PMP). The PMP project included three $3,500 unit assessments
to the property being subdivided. One of these assessments was levied to the property,
and two of the unit assessments were deferred until the property was subdivided.
G:\Developments . Private\Quail Woods\Review 091208.doc
Therefore, the developer will be required to pay the deferred assessments, totaling
$7,000 prior to approval of the final plat.
The developer will be required to obtain Right-of-Way permits from the City for all work
within the right-of-way of Quail Avenue, including driveway construction and utility
service installation. This issue will be discussed further in the Utility portion of this
review.
Utilities
City water and sanitary sewer service is available to the property being subdivided, and
there is adequate capacity available within these City systems to accommodate the
development.
The existing home on this property must comply with the City's Inflow and Infiltration
Ordinance. The home is not currently in compliance.
The existing home on this property currently receives City water service from the
watermain in Golden Valley Road, and sanitary sewer service from Quail Avenue. In
order to eliminate crossing the private property being created with a private water
service, a new water service must be installed from Quail Avenue for the existing home.
The existing water service from Golden Valley Road may be utilized for the proposed
home on Lot 3.
The developer must install all of the required sanitary sewer and water services to the
lots in this development prior to issuance of any building permits for the subdivision. The
construction of these services must not be assigned to builders for installation at the
time of home construction. The developer will also be required to post securities with
the City as part of the development agreement for the utility services and the restoration
of Quail Avenue.
As outlined within the City's Right-of-Way Management Ordinance, the restoration
requirements for streets that are excavated are based upon the age of the street. The
reconstruction of Quail Avenue in 2006 places the roadway into the highest restoration
standards category. Therefore, following excavation of the street for utilities and
driveway apron installation, the developer will be required to perform a full width
pavement mill and overlay between Golden Valley Road and the south line of the
subdivision. This work must be performed immediately following utility service and
driveway apron installation.
GradinQ, DrainaQe and Erosion Control
The developer has indicated that there is no overall site grading proposed for this
development. There will be individual lot grading performed on each of the parcels at
the time new homes or garages are constructed.
G:\Developments - Private\Quail Woods\Review 091208.doc
. .
This development is subject to the Bassett Creek Water Management Commission's
(BCWMC) Requirements for Improvements and Development Proposals. Based upon
the size of this development, the BCWMC policy requires that best management
practices for erosion and sediment control be implemented. The developer will be
required to submit the plans for the development to the BCWMC for review and
comment. There will be no permits for work on the site until approval by the BCWMC is
received.
This development is also subject to the City of Golden Valley's Grading, Drainage and
Erosion Control Ordinance. Therefore, the developer or builders will be required to
obtain a Grading, Drainage and Erosion Control Permit from the City at the time each
home or garage is inspected. The best management practices required by the BCWMC
will be implemented into these plans.
Tree Preservation
This development is also subject to the City's Tree Preservation Ordinance. Therefore,
individual tree preservation plans and permits will be required at the time of building
permit applications.
Summary and Recommendations
Public Works staff recommends approval of the Quail Woods preliminary plat subject to
the comments contained in this review. Approval is also subject to the comments of the
Bassett Creek Water Management Commission and other City staff.

Review and Recommendations
Dear Mr. Grimes:
Minnesota Statutes 505.02, 505.03, and 462.358, Plats and Surveys, allow up to 30 days for county
review of preliminary plats abutting county roads. We reviewed the above plat and offer the following
comments:
· Hennepin County Transportation finds the plat acceptable as submitted.
· Please inform the developer that all proposed construction within county right of way
requires an approved Hennepin County permit prior to beginning construction. This
includes, but is not limited to driveway and street access, drainage and utility construction,
trail development, and landscaping. Appropriate forms can be obtained by contacting our
Permits Section at (612) 596-0336.
Please direct any response to Dave Zetterstrom at (612) 596-0355.
Sincerely,
