D. Renaming Honeywell Little League Area as Isaacson Park Prepared By Rick Jacobson, Director of Park and Recreation Summary Golden Valley Little League has a long and rich history spanning over 55 years. In 1966, Little League was offered a site for its premiere field on Honeywell property and played their first game on that field in 1967. In 1998, Little League and the City were notified by Honeywell of their intent to sell the property on which the field is located. In June of 1999,the City Council approved the purchase of the site from Honeywell, which included the four acres the ball field sits on, plus an additional seven acres. In 2009,the City applied for, and was awarded a $400,000 grant from the Hennepin Youth Sports Grant Program.The grant award was combined with $67,500 committed from Golden Valley Little League to construct two additional fields on the site. At the January 10, 2012 Council/Manager meeting, representatives from Golden Valley Little League were present to discuss the possible renaming of the Honeywell Little League Area to Isaacson Park. On lanuary 30, 2012,the Open Space and Recreation Commission received information on Dick Isaacson's contribution to Golden Valley youth and the request to change the name to Isaacson Park. The Commission unanimously passed a motion recommending to the Council the renaming of the Honeywell Little League Area to Isaacson Park.

Wayne DeTuncq, 1830 Theodore Wirth Parkway; stated studies have shown that if people have to walk more than 2,000 feet from the station to the use the parking lot the patronage and usage suffers; stated that parking at Theodore Wirth Park is more than 2,000 feet from the transit line; suggested that if a shuttle service is not provided the station won't get used; stated he would not attempt to put parking in the depressed area near the station; suggested building a parking deck on the same level as the bridge is on the north side of the Golden Valley bridge with some parking; feels parking should not be provided down in the hole as it is difficult to construct and expensive to maintain; suggested a station under the bridge with a shuttle to parking at the Courage Center and Neurology clinic but did not think an escalator from the bridge to the track would work.

Also present were City Attorney Allen Barnard, Dave MacGillivray from Springsted Inc., Hennepin County Commissioners Mike Opat and Mark Stenglein, Bill Cook from Metropolitan Council Environmental Services and Administrative Assistant Lisa Wittman. The meeting began at 6:30 pm in the Council Conference Room. Goal Setting Follow-up a. FinancialOutlook Tom Burt introduced Dave MacGillivray, Chairman of Springsted, Inc. Mr. MacGillivray showed the Council a PowerPoint presentation which provided an overall outlook of the financial condition for the City to help set priorities for the upcoming years. MacGillivray discussed upcoming projects and purchases and how they affect the City's financial outlook. He also discussed debt structure and debt repayment, tax capacity and property taxes. He referred to the City's Aaa credit rating and explained the criteria involved in receiving that rating and available interest rates for that rating. After the presentation the Council discussed how the City's debt would increase, other financing options, and the potential re-evaluating of service levels. Sue Virnig noted that the Golden Hills TIF District will be decertified in 2015 and that property value will be spread throughout the City. b. 2013/2014 Pavement Management Program Jeannine Clancy explained that per Council request, staff has investigated modifications to the Pavement Management Program to address current economic conditions. The potential modifications include restructuring the currently adopted 2013 program into two separate construction seasons. She noted that splitting the 2013 program into two projects will subsequently move future projects back one year. The Council discussed their concerns about splitting the 2013 program including the debt, the effect on assessments and the cost of construction and responsiveness to residents. After discussion, Burt stated that this item will be coming back to the Council in June as part of the budgeting process. Metropolitan Council Environmental Services Sanitary Sewer— 1-GV-461 Reliever Project Jeannine Clancy introduced Bill Cook from Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES), who came to the meeting to update the Council on the status of the reliever project route and proposed schedule. Jeff Oliver stated that the project is on schedule to start construction in April or early May and gave the Council copies of the construction agreement for their review. Council/Manager Meeting Minutes February 15, 2012 — Page 2 Mr. Cook referred to a map of the project area and discussed the proposed lift station located on the west side of TH100 which will connect to St. Louis Park. He discussed the tunneling under I-394 and noted that the time frame for the project will be approximately four to five months; however the lift station site will take approximately one year to complete. Clancy added that the project will be done in conjunction with the Circle Down Pavement Management Program. Mr. Cook answered questions from the Council regarding the alignment, traffic impact and communication to the residents. Clancy stated that the construction agreements will be on the February 21 City Council agenda for consideration. Police Communications Plan Stacy Carlson reviewed with the Council several of the ways the Police Department has planned to communicate with residents in 2012. She informed the Council of an upcoming session regarding the rules around use of force which includes borrowing a use of force simulator from Hennepin County that puts users through scenarios and use of force considerations. She discussed a number of items in the communications plan including: the Citizen's Academy, the bike rodeo, the Police and Fire open house, Police in the Park, safety camp, bike-a-longs, Nite to Unite, master safety camp and car seat safety checks. She stated that the Police Department is exploring a one-way facebook page and will be working on the development of a comment card this year to mail to people who have had contact with officers. She added that the Police Department also has a crime blog and will continue to work with the media and have articles in every CityNews newsletter. Mayor Harris asked if there is a way to publicize the POST Board report or results to help with any negative perceptions. Carlson explained that there isn't a report received from the POST Board. It is really more of an audit procedure. She added that their 2011 Annual Report will be on the February 21 regular Council meeting agenda. Draft Traffic Sign Management Policy Mark Ray explained that there is a new edition of Minnesota's Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) which sets the standards for traffic control signs. He showed the Council a sample of a new street sign and discussed the cost of the signs and the inventory database the City keeps. Council Member Pentel asked what will happen with the old signs. Jeannine Clancy stated that the pavement management contractors salvage the signs per their construction contract. She added that they are also considering selling the old signs which are replaced by staff at either Valley Days or Mighty Tidy Day. Mayor Harris asked about the timeline for replacing signs. Ray stated that replacement will start in the pavement management project areas and signs will be replaced throughout the rest of the City as funds allow. He estimated that it will take approximately five years to replace all the signs in the City. Harris said he would like to know the total cost of replacing all signs in one year. Council/Manager Meeting Minutes February 15, 2012 — Page 3 Review Letter to Hennepin County Board Regarding Bottineau Transitway Draft Environmental Impact Statement Scoping Booklet Hennepin County Commissioners Mike Opat and Mark Stenglein were in attendance to listen to the Council's concerns and answer questions about the potential D1 transitway route alignment through Golden Valley. The Council asked the Commissioners if they understand how Golden Valley residents feel about the proposed transitway and how much influence that will have on the County's decision. The Commissioners agreed that Golden Valley's concerns will have a lot of influence on the project. The Council expressed the following concerns to the Commissioners: having transit oriented development if there is no parking available at a stop in Golden Valley, the actual cost of the proposed D1 alignment particularly the significant environmental costs involved, the effect on property values, the division of the neighborhood, having to amend the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning Map and potentially losing park land to a park and ride facility or lot. Joe Hogeboom reviewed the draft letter to the Hennepin County Board of Commissioners with the Council. After discussion the Council consensus was to strengthen the letter to better state that the Council, while in favor of light rail, has significant concerns about the proposed D1 alignment. City Attorney Overview Allen Barnard reviewed current laws, policies and/or procedures regarding conflict of interest, data practices, gift law, open meeting law, records retention, payments to 501(c)(3) and public information on lawsuits. Council Challenge to Raise Food for Minnesota Food Share Month Mayor Harris asked the Council if they would be interested in participating in a challenge with St. Louis Park to raise food for Minnesota Food Share Month. Due to the recent PRISM food drive, the Council consensus was not to participate in the challenge at this time. The meeting adjourned at 11:03 pm.

In R . . . ed o inson Treasurer Service Above Self Regular Meeting of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 A regular meeting of the Planning Commission was held at the Golden Valley City Hall, Council Chambers, 7800 Golden Valley Road, Golden Valley, Minnesota, on Monday, February 13, 2012. Chair Waldhauser called the meeting to order at 7 pm. Those present were Planning Commissioners, Cera, Kisch, Kluchka, McCarty, Schmidgall, Segelbaum and Waldhauser. Also present was Director of Planning and Development Mark Grimes, City Planner Joe Hogeboom, City Engineer Jeff Oliver and Administrative Assistant Lisa Wittman. 1. Approval of Minutes � January 23, 2012 Regular Planning Commission Meeting Kisch referred to the ninth paragraph on page four and clarified that he agreed with Commissioner McCarty's concern about the height of Breck's proposal but he did not share McCarty's concern about enrollment. Waldhauser referred to the last paragraph on page seven and clarified that she would like to review the MnAPA Citizen Planner handbook with the Planning Commission at a future meeting. MOVED by McCarty, seconded by Schmidgall and motion carried unanimously to approve the January 23, 2012 minutes with the above noted changes. 2. Informal Public Hearing — Planned Unit Development Amendment— Preliminary Plan —4900 Triton Drive (Eldridge 3�d Addition) — PU-109 Applicant: A.K.A.R.E. Companies, LLC — Rob Eldridge Lakewest Development Co, LLC — Curt Fretham Addresses: 4900 Triton Drive Purpose: To allow the applicant to divide one single family residential lot into five single family residential lots. Grimes referred to a location map and explained the applicant's proposal to tear down the existing home on a 2.2 acre lot and build five new homes on five new lots. He explained that the properties are zoned Single Family Residential and are guided for low density development on the General Land Use Plan Map in the Comprehensive Plan. Grimes explained that there are finro ways to divide this property. One is by standard zoning through the subdivision process and the other is by using the Planned Unit Development (PUD) process. The applicant in this case is choosing to do a PUD in order to preserve and protect the steep slopes and trees. Grimes read the purposes in the Intent and Purpose section of the PUD ordinance and said he feels this proposal does meet the intent of the PUD ordinance. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 2 Grimes stated that the proposed street will be a public street and will be built to City standards. He referred to a site plan of the proposal and noted that the homes would be placed further south (closer to the proposed street) on the lots in order to save a number of trees along the north side of the property. Moving the homes further to south will mean that the homes will not meet the 35-foot front yard setback requirement. He discussed the conditions of approval listed in his staff report and noted that all of the lots will meet the required square footage requirement, however not all of them will meet the 80-foot width requirement or the 12.5-foot side yard setback requirement. Kisch asked how the height of the homes will be measured. Grimes stated that the height of a home is measured to the mid-point of the highest gable at the front of the house. Kluchka asked Grimes to compare and contrast the current lot configuration and the applicant's ability to develop six lots. Grimes explained that the current lot consists of six , lots but six homes could not be built because of the slope and the lack of street access. He added that on paper it looks like six homes could be built, but in reality it would be difficult and approximately 90% of the trees would have to be removed. Kluchka asked about the history of the property and asked if the potential to develop six lots has always been there. Grimes said he doesn't know the history of how Lowry Terrace along the north was vacated but the property has been comprised of six lots probably since the 1940s. Oliver explained that when staff first received the first submission of the plans for this proposal it appeared to be a relatively straightforward development of a difficult property. He said it was a well thought out plan that preserved over half the trees on the site. The infrastructure was well planned and it met all the requirements for rate control of stormwater run-off and the Bassett Creek Water Management Commission water quality requirements. However, as Grimes stated, staff felt that the first submittal did not meet one of the primary intents of the PUD ordinance which is to preserve and protect desirable site characteristics such as open space and steep slopes. He explained that staff's recommendation is that the site be developed using a two-phase grading approach to more closely match the intent of the PUD ordinance. The first phase of grading would be during the installation of the sewer services, the pond and construction of the street. The second phase of grading would be custom grading of the lots at the time of home construction. The two-phase grading approach would maximize the potential for tree preservation and would allow future homeowners to make design decisions about their individual lots and the types of houses built. He noted that the currently proposed one- phase grading plan includes grinder pumps on some of the lots because the site would be lowered. He explained that the building code allows for grinder pumps however they are only to be used when there are no other viable alternatives so staff is recommending the grade be raised to avoid the use of grinder pumps. Kisch asked if there is concern that the site might not be looked at as a whole if it is done in two phases whereas a single grading approach takes the whole site into consideration from the beginning. Oliver explained that the public improvements (street, sewer systems, utilities, etc.) will take place first and that the lots can't be developed until those public improvements are done. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 3 Waldhauser said she assumes that the grading and drainage on this property won't impact the surrounding properties. Oliver said that is correct and stated that the developer will be required to do a stormwater management plan and obtain the proper permits. Schmidgall asked for clarification regarding the stone retaining wall being proposed. Oliver explained that the site is currently fairly level but the proposed grading for the cul- de-sac changes the grade enough to need the retaining wall. He added that the two- phase approach to grading will greatly reduce the height of the proposed retaining wall. Cera asked about the location of the easement for maintenance of the proposed stormwater pond. Oliver referred to the site plan and explained that there is an existing storm sewer in place serving the neighborhood to the north. He said the preferred access would be from the north. He explained that staff will be asking the developer to restore the pond to pre-construction conditions before the City takes it over. He added that pond maintenance typically occurs every 20 to 25 years and the City restores any area disturbed by the maintenance. Waldhauser asked about the elevation of the northern edge of the pond and how pond areas are planted. Oliver said the northern edge of the pond seems to blend in well with the existing contours and that ponds require a native vegetative buffer consistent with City Code requirements. Kluchka asked if a parking plan will be required or if there has been any discussion regarding parking on the street. Oliver stated that the street will be constructed to the standard 26-foot width so staff doesn't anticipate any parking restrictions. McCarty asked if the street will be similar to the street constructed for the development at the southwest corner of Highway 55 and 100 (Maywood). Oliver explained that this proposed cul-de-sac is not the same as the Maywood development because that is a private road, not a public street like the one being proposed. Kisch asked if the turning radius of the cul-de-sac is adequate. Oliver said yes. Segelbaum asked about the trade-offs relating to the proposed setback variances. Grimes explained that the lots the applicant is proposing all exceed the minimum lot size and have a fairly low density at 2.2 units per acre. However, they are proposing to have 25-foot front yard setbacks and 10-foot side yard setbacks rather than the required 35- foot front yard and 12.5-foot side yard setbacks. They are also proposing that the side yard setback will not increase with the height of the building as required. He explained the reason for the requested variances is to preserve more trees and to place the homes further away from the slope along the north side of the property. Waldhauser added that she can see the advantage in this case of having smaller front yard setbacks because it allows for a more compact neighborhood and more space between the new homes and the existing homes to the north. Segelbaum expressed concern about the proposed front yard setbacks and noted that the Board of Zoning Appeals has been vigilant about maintaining 35-foot front yard setbacks. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 4 Grimes noted that the front setback for the house on Lot 1 along Triton Drive will be 35 feet. Kisch said all of the houses except for the one on Lot 2 could meet 35-foot front yard setback requirement. He expressed concern about the variance from side yard setback requirements because there could potentially be homes that are 35 to 40 feet tall in the back with only 20 feet between the homes. Peter Knaeble, Terra Engineering, representing the applicant, referred to the questions regarding the front yard setbacks. He stated that most of the lots will have a 30-foot front yard setback and every home will be custom built. He explained the layout of the site and stated that they want to use the flexibility of the PUD process in order to save trees, provide a compact development that has more green space and less impervious surface and also preserve the homes around this development. He stated that the traditional re- platting process would remove approximately 90% of the trees versus approximately 43% using the PUD process. He added that the lot sizes in this proposed development would be larger than the surrounding lots. Waldhauser referred to the diagram showing the lot layout and asked about which trees are existing and which ones would be replacements. Knaeble stated that all of the trees in the back of the houses along the north side of the property are existing trees. Waldhauser asked Knaeble to address the grade of the cul-de-sac. Knaeble explained that their original plans had a 6-foot retaining wall along the east side of the property but they shifted the street further to the west which brought the retaining wall down to 3 feet. He added that if they can save trees by doing the grading in two phases they will. Kluchka asked Knaeble if they have considered developing the property into fewer lots. Knaeble said they did consider dividing the property into two lots but it just isn't feasible to develop less than five lots. Cera asked Knaeble if they've had a meeting with the neighborhood. Knaeble said they did have a neighborhood meeting last week where they presented the same plans. He said the concerns they heard from the neighbors included tree removal, the views from the three sides that border this property and how stormwater will be managed. Kluchka asked if any consideration has been given for 4824 Triton Dr. Knaeble said he has tried to contact the property owner but has been unsuccessful. He referred to the plan and stated that they are proposing to plat an outlot that could be redeveloped with 4824 Triton if it ever gets redeveloped. He added that they are also planning on putting in services to the north side of the 4824 Triton Dr. property in case that lot is split into two lots in the future. Segelbaum asked about the average widths of the proposed new lots. Knaeble explained that Lot 1 is 105 feet wide, Lot 2 is 64 feet wide, Lot 3 is 51 feet wide, Lot 4 is 45 feet wide and Lot 5 is 44 feet wide. Minutes of the Golden Valley Pfanning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 5 Rob Eldridge, Ridgecreek Custom Homes, builder for the project, showed pictures of a project he did in St. Louis Park. He explained that when the setbacks are staggered it allows the backyards to have more privacy. Segelbaum asked Eldridge if ineeting the 35-foot front yard setback requirement would prevent him from being able to build or if it would prevent the staggering of the backyards. Eldridge stated that meeting the 35-foot front yard setbacks could prevent the homeowners from having a 3-stall garage. He reiterated that moving the homes forward on the lots allows them more flexibility and allows the new homes to be further away from the existing homes surrounding them. Kisch said he is concerned about the proposed 10-foot side yard setbacks and those setbacks not increasing with the height of the home. He said he would like the buildings designed to the site, not the site designed to the buildings. Eldridge noted that that the lots are pie-shaped as well so the side yard setback area will increase from front to back. Grimes added that any wall over 32 in length must be articulated as well. Kluchka asked Eldridge about his market plan and his thoughts about the developing the property into fewer than five lots. Eldridge said they are currently testing the market and he thinks the homes will be in the $400,000 to $600,000 range. He stated that a three-lot development would not work financially but he is not sure about a 4-lot development. McCarty referred to the neighborhood meeting and asked which of their concerns haven't been addressed. Eldridge said he can't speak to how the neighbors feel but he heard one concern about construction traffic which there is no way to eliminate. He said he thinks the neighbors want a chance to voice their opinions because it is a beautiful property. Waldhauser opened the public hearing. Mike Ernst, 4845 Lowry Terrace, said he was speaking on behalf of several residents. He distributed a letter outlining the neighbor's concerns. He stated that the proposed development negatively impacts the land, the surrounding neighborhood and conflicts with the goals in the City's Comprehensive Plan. He expressed the concerns about the woodlands and wildlife that exist on the northern edge of the properiy and stated that new trees will not compensate for the destruction of the area for decades to come. He referred to the grading and drainage issues and said this area has flooded during heavy rain events and this proposal represents major issues for the properties to the north regarding their views and privacy. To address the grading concerns he suggested that all retaining walls be eliminated and underground detention be used instead of the proposed pond. He also suggested that the existing overhead power lines be buried. He stated that their neighborhood is an established, quiet and well-maintained area and asked that building permits be required to be closed within 1 year of issuance, storage of construction equipment be prohibited, the size of sales/marketing signs be limited, the hours of construction be limited, construction vehicles should be required to park onsite, not on adjacent streets, construction fences on the entire site should be prohibited, security lighting should be prevented between the hours of 10 pm and dawn, and the use of street lights should be minimized and should have dark-sky compliant fixtures. He referred to Minutes of the Golden Vailey Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 6 the City's Comprehensive Plan and said he doesn't believe this proposal meets the goals, objectives and policies listed in the Land Use section of the Plan. He also feels the proposal doesn't meet the Purpose and Intent section of the PUD ordinance in the City Code. He asked that the City provide the neighbors with wetland study information previously gathered and stated that the developer should provide additional research including impact to the local habitat, both short-term and long-term cost analysis, a visual impact study showing views both during and post-construction and the neighbors should be given appropriate time to review the information. He said the neighbors cannot support the development as proposed and asked the Planning Commission to deny the application until further study can take place and a more suitable plan is proposed. Fred Reiter, 3146 Quail Ave N, said this is a well settled neighborhood that is turning over to younger families. He stated that there is an extremely unique eco-system in the woods that will be devastated if this proposal goes through. He said he just recently heard about this proposal and hasn't had an equal amount of time as the developer to review all of the relevant facts so he feels, as a matter of fairness and justness, that the Planning Commission should not make a decision without giving the neighbors more time to evaluate the facts. He suggested the developer make a scale-model of the proposal so he can see what the development will look like in relation to the existing homes in the area. He asked how much consideration has been given to low-impact development. He said he recognizes that the property owners have rights to develop their property but it should be done to certain standards. He suggested a study be required to find out if there are any protected species in the area. He expressed concern about the impact of traffic and the impact on property taxes and asked about the time frame of the project. He questioned if this project would set a precedent that any woodland area in Golden Valley is available for giant homes to be built. Ruby Vanhorn, 2901 Perry Ave, said she"s lived in the neighborhood for 48 years and she is afraid this project will spoil their beautiful neighborhood. She said there are 15 children fiving within three blocks and there are no two-story homes in the area so the proposed homes will not be consistent with the neighborhood. She urged the Planning Commission to really think about this proposal. Ray Anderson, 3142 Quail Ave N, distributed a list of concerns that were collected at the February 4 neighborhood meeting held by the developer. He asked if the City's tree preservation requirements are considered to be a recommendation or if they are a regulation or law. He referred to the tree preservation and asked if the builder is held to the same requirements as a developer. He noted that according to the tree preservation ordinance if this project is defined as a single-phase development the developer is required to protect 60% of the trees but if it is a multi-stage development they are required to protect 75% of the trees. He asked which type of development this will be considered. Barbara Gaasedelen, 3026 Perry Ave N, said this area is a snapshot of post-war suburbia where kids play in the street and people greet each other. She said currently many of the streets are truncated by design so there would not be through traffic and with this proposa! the new street will bypass the original intent of what the developers chose to do in the 1940s. She said she has heard the developer say that they want to retain trees for Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 7 privacy and they don't like privacy fences, but people did not move to this neighborhood so that they would be cut off from their neighbors. She added that this is a mature, already established neighborhood and suddenly it is changing a lot. Peggy Neibling, 3270 Quail Ave N, stated that the area has a number of homes in the area that have been for sale for a long time which makes her wonder about the justification for adding more homes. Richard Peet, 3245 Noble Ave N, asked if the public is allowed access to the land now that it is a PUD. He stated that there are breeding frogs on the property which to him indicates the property is a wetland. He said the City has said it is not a wetland but he is not convinced and would like to look at the vegetative matter on the property. He added that if this process takes until June he'll be able to document the extent of the breeding frog population. Sheila Bahl, 4815 Culver Road, said she doesn't think seeing flat drawings really show what will be built. She said she assumes the houses will be pseudo arts and crafts style houses that won't fit in with the neighborhood because the existing homes are approximately 1,000 square feet in size. She said if she looks down the proposed cul-de- sac from Triton Drive she will see 15 garage doors and houses which will cause a lot of visual tension because the tall homes being built close together and close to the street will loom over the neighborhood that currently feels so open and airy. She stated that five lots are not a good idea and will not be good for traffic and everyone assumed there would be finro lots because of the street frontage the property has. She added that the proposal will be a blight on their neighborhood and she doesn't think people from the outside should be able to come in and make money off of the community they've spent years building. She asked the Planning Commission to ask the builder what he told her at the neighborhood meeting when she asked what would happen if his plans were not approved. Richard Zuraff, 4840 Lowry Terrace, said they have a lot of drainage issues and every spring his back yard floods. He said last year it flooded so bad that water went into his neighbor's garage and during hard rains the manhole covers in the street blow off. He expressed concern over the impact this proposed development will have on drainage. Nancy Husnik, 5205 Triton Drive, said she would like to know the time frame of this development, the appetite in this market for five $500,000 to $600,000 homes and if there will be an assessment for the proposed new street and utilities that would affect neighbors outside of the development area. She said she is also concerned about the trees because ultimately the number of trees will be decided by the individual homeowners so the neighborhood could ultimately end up with a hodgepodge of trees. Lisa Jacobson, 2900 Cherokee Place, said Golden Valley is a great place to live and she understands why people want to live here, but she has made sacrifices to stay in Golden Valley. She said the City denied her the ability, because of setbacks, to add a family room to her home and added that she is concerned about aesthetics because these proposed homes will not fit in with the neighborhood. She said she would rather see the property Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 8 developed into two lots with the stipulation that the homes have to fit in with the existing environment and keep the same aesthetic. Bob Hagen, 4815 Culver Road, asked if there will be any tax considerations given to the developer for this project. Hearing and seeing no one else wishing to comment, Waldhauser closed the public hearing. Waldhauser asked Grimes to review the tree preservation requirements for single-phased versus multi-phased developments. Grimes explained that there is a tree preservation ordinance in place however trees can be removed if there is replacement or compensation for the removed trees. He reiterated that the City Engineer is suggesting a finro-phase approach so there can be one preservation plan for the pond, street and utilities and another plan for the homes. Waldhauser asked if the percentage of trees allowed to be removed would apply to the whole development or if there would be a different percentage for each phase. Grimes said yes, the percentage applies to the whole development. Kluchka asked for an explanation of the concern he heard about single-phase developments requiring 60% of the trees be protected but multi-phased developments require 75% of the trees be protected. He asked which type of development this will be considered. Oliver stated that the City Forester is recommending a two-phase grading approach. He explained that the developer and builder will have to comply with the tree preservation ordinance at all times. Kluchka said he is concerned that the two-phase grading approach is coming from a grading and engineering perspective rather than a tree preservation perspective. Oliver stated that one of the benefits of the two-phase grading approach is the preservation of the trees. Waldhauser asked Eldridge to address Ms. Bahl's question regarding what was said to her when she asked what he would do if he didn't get approval. Eldridge said he believed that Ms. Bahl asked him if he would build six houses (using the traditional subdivision � process) if he did not receive approval to build five houses (using the PUD process) and he told her yes, he would subdivide the property into six lots if the PUD is not approved. Kluchka asked Grimes if he thinks an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) should be required in this case. Grimes said this is not a large enough project to meet the threshold requirements of an EIS. Grimes referred to Mr. Ernst's comments regarding the goals and objectives of the land use chapter in the Comprehensive Plan and explained that the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Plan Map and the Zoning Map both call for this property to be low density residential which is what the developer is proposing. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 9 Kluchka asked about the definition of open space. Grimes stated that open space is generally land that is preserved as a park or nature area. In this case the "open space" will have an easement over it which gives the City the right to preserve it. Kluchka asked what options the neighbors have to protect this property and if there has been any talk of having an homeowner's association. Grimes said he doesn't think this project will have a homeowner's association. Waldhauser asked if a neighborhood association could have any type of control. Grimes said there are some areas in the City that have covenants, but that is not the case with this property. He added that the neighbors could purchase an easement on the property in order to preserve certain things. Kluchka asked if the City has had any issues regarding retention ponds. Oliver explained that in regard to safety issues the City has been advised by the City Attorney that the design of the pond is key regarding safety and liability for the City. He explained that ponds are designed with a bench, planted with vegetation material, below the normal water level that serves as a safety buffer. He added that the City doesn't encourage fences around ponds because it limits emergency access. Kluchka asked if any thought has been given to underground water retention. Oliver said that using underground water retention systems is a fairly new idea that are more intrusive and require a higher level of maintenance than a pond, but they can be used in the right location and the alternatives to a pond in this case can be evaluated. Kluchka asked about the suggestion of burying the utilities. Oliver said his recommendation is that the utilities along the north side of the property be put underground. Kluchka asked if the City has the ability to control when building permits are closed. Grimes stated that open building permits have to have active construction occurring. Oliver added that the developer will be required to post a letter of credit for the total cost of the utilities so the City can ensure that the public improvement portion of the project will be done to City standards. He stated that doing the work as a public improvement project would also allow the City to have more control over the construction traffic and added that there will be no costs or assessment to the neighbors. Kluchka asked about the cost of maintaining the proposed cul-de-sac. Oliver noted that the proposed street is approximately 175 feet in length and the total impact of increased maintenance will be minimal and will be part of the City's general operating fund. He explained that the developer will be responsible for paying for the installation of the pond however the City will maintain it using stormwater fees that everyone pays because additional properties will drain to the pond, not just the properties in this development. � Kluchka asked how property taxes will be affected by this proposal. Grimes said the property values in the area may change slightly. He assumes that each proposed new property would pay approximately $5,000 in taxes which is a benefit to the City, but isn't really a consideration of approval of this proposal. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 10 Kluchka asked about this proposal setting a precedent and asked if this type of proposal has been done before. Grimes explained that there have been many proposals similar to this throughout the City. Kluchka asked if people would be allowed to go on the property because it is a PUD. Knaeble said typically homeowners are not insured to have neighbors walking on their property. Kluchka asked if the PUD process allows for design controls. Grimes said the City doesn't have ordinances regarding aesthetics. He noted that the applicant is essentially asking for single family homes in a single family neighborhood with some setback variations. Waldhauser added that the City has not wanted to restrict the design of houses and any lot can be sold and bought by someone else who then builds a new home on it. Grimes referred to the question regarding traffic. He stated that the five proposed homes will create approximately 50 to 60 extra trips per day. There is capacity in the system to handle that amount of traffic. Grimes referred to the question regarding street lighting. Oliver stated that the necessity of street lights will probably be decided at a staff level. Grimes noted that there are ordinances regarding street lighting in single family residential neighborhoods. Grimes asked Oliver if the wetland study looks at species of animals. Oliver stated that wetland delineation does not look into animal species. He said to his knowledge there are no protected species in Golden Valley with the exception of peregrine falcons at the Colonnade building. Waldhauser asked about requiring the developer to create a 3D model of the proposal. Kisch said he would recommend that the developer show sectional cuts rather than a 3D model. Waldhauser added that the developer is proposing two-story homes which are fairly standard and what most homeowners want. Oliver referred to the concern regarding construction noise and stated that the City's noise ordinance allows construction from 7 am to 10 pm. Kisch asked about the issue of marketing and real estate signs. Grimes explained that each development is allowed a certain square footage of signage and that the developer would have to follow the City's sign ordinance. Kluchka asked if there will be any tax subsidies for this project. Grimes said no. Segelbaum asked about limiting construction fencing. Oliver said there will be tree preservation fencing, fencing around areas to be protected and silt fencing around the site but that he has never seen chain link fencing around an entire building site. Kluchka asked about low-impact development. Grimes said that the proposed homes will meet today's energy standards. Also the developer is doing a good job regarding low- Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 11 impact development by trying to minimize impact to the slopes and sensitive areas. Cera added that clustering the homes and having less setback area and smaller lots as proposed is also moving in the direction of low-impact development. Waldhauser asked if the time period for review can be changed as requested by a resident. Grimes explained that there are four public hearings required for this proposal, two for the preliminary plan and two for the final plan. He added that cities are required by state statute to review proposals within a 60-day time period. Kluchka asked if neighbors have until April 20 to make comments. Grimes explained that the City's 60-day review period requires a decision within 60- days, not comments. He stated that staff has worked with the developer to come up with plans that they believe meets the City's ordinances. Waldhauser said she understands the neighbor's concerns and agrees that it is a fabulous neighborhood. She said she also realized that individual property owners can do what they want with their property within the rules and she doesn't think the City has the ability to control that. She said she thinks it could be a lovely development and not the imposition people are thinking. She said she is leaning toward recommending approval of the proposal subject to the conditions listed in the staff reports. Cera said he is concerned about the proposed retaining walls and grinder pumps and he would like to see some visuals for what the City Engineer is recommending in regard to the grading. Kisch suggested possibly adding more restrictive language regarding tree preservation as a condition of approval since this is a PUD. He said he feels that allowing 25-foot front yard setbacks will save more trees but he is a little hesitant to reduce the side yard setback requirements. He agreed that this development is moving in the right direction for a low-impact development and he thinks it will be a positive development for the neighborhood. He said he would feel fine recommending approval and working out the rest of the details during the final plan review. McCarty said he agrees that the residents brought up good points especially the natural layout of the land. He agreed that new families will revitalize the neighborhood and private residences in this location are a positive thing. He said he is concerned about the setbacks and he doesn't think a lot of trees will be lost if the homes were pushed back further on the lots. He said he doesn't like the proposed 10-foot side yard setbacks and he thinks the builder can still build houses on the lots using the correct setbacks. Kluchka said his biggest negative finding is the smaller side yard setbacks. He can see pros and cons for smaller front setbacks. He said he is inclined to support the proposal without setback variances because ponding and groundwater management are being added to the site. Segelbaum said he is concerned about the proposed front yard setbacks and that seeing garage after garage will have a tunneling affect. He said side and front setbacks work together and it will be up to the individual homeowners where the house is placed on the lots but the goal seems to be that with smaller setbacks they can build bigger houses. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 12 McCarty added that requiring 10 more feet of front setback area isn't going to make the lots unbuildable. Cera reiterated that the whole principle of low-impact development is the smaller setbacks and the clustering of homes. He said he is worried that if the front yard setbacks aren't reduced the homes behind the proposed new homes would be destroyed. McCarty said he feels 25-foot front yard and 10-foot side yard setbacks are too close. Cera noted that if the houses were pushed back to meet the 35-foot front setback requirement most of the trees will be gone, the site will be leveled and the applicant will build six houses. Grimes said he would like to save as many trees as possible and he would feel more comfortable seeing a plan that shows what pushing the houses further back on the lots would do to the slope and the trees. Kluchka suggested tabling the request in order to receive more information and to have more of the concerns addressed. Curt Fretham, applicant, said they are not trying to be disrespectful and he understands that neighbors don't like change but they have given up a lot with this proposal and they are hopeful to get a yes or no vote from the Planning Commission and a decision from the Council rather than change their plans finro or three more times. Schmidgall said he doesn't think the site is viable as it exists currently and he feels the design is driven to save the woodland area and the pond will be a nice amenity. MOVED by Schmidgall, seconded by Waldhauser to recommend approval of the PUD request as submitted subject to the following conditions: 1. The recommendations and requirements outlined in the memo from Deputy Fire Marshal Ed Anderson to Mark Grimes, Director of Planning and Development dated December 28, 2011, shall become part of this approval. 2. The recommendations and requirements outlined in the memo from City Engineer Jeff Oliver, PE, to Mark Grimes, Director of Planning and Development, dated February 8, 2012, shall become a part of this approval. 3. All signs on the property must meet the requirements of the City's Sign Code. 4. The Preliminary PUD Design Plan packet for Eldridge 3�d Addition PUD No. 109 prepared for A. Kare Companies LLC by Terra Engineering, Inc., Sheets 1-10 shall become a part of this approval subject to amendments required by the City Engineer as noted in his memo to Mark Grimes dated February 8, 2012. 5. The five lots within the development shall be subject to the setbacks shown on Sheet No. 4. No house shall be higher than 28 ft. as stipulated in the zoning code. However, the side setback noted on the plan shall not increase with the increase of house height. 6. The proposed Eldridge 3�d Addition PUD No. 109 is consistent with the Intent and Purpose provision and other PUD requirements and principles and standards adhered to by the City. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission February 13, 2012 Page 13 7. If the developer would like to construct a model home and have public access to it prior to completion of the street, it must be done in a manner approved by the Building Official and Director of Inspections. 8. This approval is subject to all other state, federal, and local ordinances, regulations, or laws with authority over this development. Kisch amended the motion to include further study regarding maintaining the front yard setbacks at 35 feet, maintaining the side yard setbacks at 12.5 feet and exploring how much control the City can have over increasing the tree preservation on the property. Schmidgall and Waldhauser accepted this amendment to the motion. The motion carried 5 to 2 to recommend approval of the PUD with the above noted conditions and further study. Cera and Kluchka voted no. --Short Recess-- 3. Reports on Meetings of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority, City Council, Board of Zoning Appeals and other Meetings No other meetings were discussed. 4.

Call to Order The meeting was convened at 7:10 pm by Blair Tremere and turned over to Mayor Harris. 2. Approval of Agenda A motion to approve the agenda as presented was made by Tremere and seconded by Schleif. The motion was approved unanimously. 3. Approval of the Minutes of December 15, 2011 Motion: It was moved by Penk and seconded by Johnson to approve the minutes as written. The motion was approved unanimously. 4. New Business • Board Leadership -- Harris discussed changing the resolution for the Envision Connection Board of Directors at the Council Manager meeting. He does not believe the mayor needs to be the chair. However, the council asked to see what the board wants. The consensus was that the mayor does not need to be the chair; however, the board wants a direct liaison with the council. Harris would be one of two liaisons and would not be at every meeting. Tremere said the original challenge to the council from the Envision proceedings was to find ways to get the community connected. This has been the ultimate challenge to the Envision board. A new resolution would give the council an opportunity to refresh the mission and responsibilities of the Board. Heidelberg asked how much independence does Envision have from the city and at the same time, how much involvement from the city is there in Envision. Lund said there is a symbolic connection to the city. Penk said the Community Foundation came about because the city cannot fund everything. Harris said in going forward, he would like to go back to the council and change the bylaws to have the chair elected by the board and have a liaison from the city council. Harris thought this would take about two months to resolve. • Developing Goals for 2012 — Harris would like the Board to develop goals for 2012. He sees it taking two meetings, the first to brainstorm and the second to come to consensus. Johnson brought up the Sister City/Cultural Exchange that has been discussed at previous meetings. The purpose is to celebrate and connect the cultures in Golden Valley. She would like to get people together as soon as possible. The first step is to find the key contact from various immigrant groups. She would like to have a larger gathering at the end of February. Harris presented his suggested Envision goals. Suggested Goals include: o A Neighborhood Association Pilot Program Harris said he campaigned on strengthening the neighborhoods. He would like to start a Neighborhood Association Pilot project around 3 or 4 neighborhoods, possibly in conjunction with the police and commissions. o General Outreach opportunities ■ Concert in the Park Music selection Committee ■ Community Advisory Council ■ Quarterly Town Hall Forums o Calendar Opportunities ■ Based around holidays o Sister-City Relationship o Continue 125th Anniversary Activities o Miscellaneous opportunities ■ Bike Tours ■ City Council Challenges for Charity Lund pointed out that there are three organizations: • Envision —which is the think tank. • Community Foundation —which will develop funding opportunity for community projects • Bridge Builders —the "troops." Lund would like to build the membership in Bridge Builders. He said there are a lot of great ideas, and a lot of energy but a shortage of help. Penk sees the Bridge Builders as a "community center for community action" Lund suggested that there be a Bridge Builder chair on a yearly basis. Harris would like to see the commissions and council come together on a yearly basis. 5. Community Foundation Update Penk said the first four months of the year will be spent raising funds to distribute later. Committees are being formed and other business is being taken care of. A marketing program is in place and a notice will be in the January-February issue of the CityNews. A comment was made that the Envision Board should develop a request for funds to the Foundation. Johnson suggested that the Hall of Fame should be sponsored by the Foundation. Lund said he is looking for one single idea such as an electronic kiosk. Tremere suggested that there are one or more people in the community who can produce and fund the kiosk. 6. Bridge Building Activities • Bridge Builders —The Bridge Builder quarterly meeting is January 21 from 10 am to noon at the Breck School. Penk will prepare the agenda. Tanick said that Breck will give an overview and tour.

A. Requests by the Association of Medicine Lake Area Citizens (AMLAC) i. BCWMC to Create a Document about the Medicine Lake Dam and Lake Level. Chair Loomis reported that the Commission received a request from the Association of Medicine Lake Area Citizens to create a document about the Medicine Lake Dam and lake level.Ms. Chandler said that a document had previously been prepared by the Commission Engineer on this topic and Len Kremer had delivered a presentation about it.Ms.Chandler wondered if AMLAC was just interested in having all of that historic information combined into one document or if AMLAC is interested in something else.She commented that if the request is to create a document using the existing information and addressing just a few new questions then the Commission Engineer estimates that the work could be done for$5,000.Commissioner Hoshal said he thought that AMLAC wanted the information in one document so that AMLAC could deliver the information to its residents in response to their questions. Commissioner Elder asked if there was a way that AMLAC would cost share for the work.Ms. Clancy remarked that the City of Golden Valley's understanding has been that when the Commission Engineer is asked for work products that are for a speci�c city or a speci�c city's organization then that city is solely responsible for the costs of that work.Acting Commissioner Johnson asked if the Commission had a budget for the item.The Commission noted that it didn't have this type of work budgeted. Acting Commissioner Goddard suggested that the Commission put ihe issue back to AMLAC and ask if it is interested in having this work be done at AMLAC's expense and if so,then to provide more specifics on what information it wants; otherwise the Cities of Plymouth and Medicine Lake could possibly provide the information. Mr.Asche commented that AMLAC's request reads like a scope of services for a feasibility document.He said perhaps AMLAC would want to touch base with Minnehaha Creek Watershed District to�nd out what was involved with the Gray's Bay dam.Acting Commissioner Johnson recommended no action on this item and suggested that she or Commissioner Hoshal communicate with them that there were questions about what AMLAC was requesting and then perhaps the cities can work with AMLAC to provide the information that is already available. Chair Loomis asked if the Commission wanted to take no action or wanted to table the agenda item until the February BCWMC meeting.The Commission concurred that it would table the item until the February meeting. ii. BCWMC Participation in a 7 p.m.February 8t" meeting on Aquatic Invasive Species. See discussion under agenda item 4J. B. TAC Recommendations i. Review of Channel Maintenance Fund Applications for 2012 Projects.Mr.Asche noted that the TAC reviewed a request from the City of Golden Valley for$100,000 in Channel Maintenance funds for a 2012 stream bank restoration on the Bassett Creek Main Stem Reach 1,subreach 2.He said that Golden Valley has just over$144,000 available to it in BCWMC Channel Maintenance funds.Mr.Asche reported that the TAC recommends that the 5 BCWMC January 19,2012,Meeting Minutes Commission approve the City of Golden Valley's request for Channel Maintenance funds in the amount of$100,000. Commissioner Langsdorf moved to approve the proposal by the City of Golden Valley for the use of$100,000 from the BCWMC Channel Maintenance Fund for fts 2012 Main Stem restoration project. Commissioner de Lambert seconded the motion.The motion carried unanimouslv with eight votes in favor[City of Robbinsdale absent from vote]. ii. Next Generation Plan Issue Identification.Mr.Asche said that the TAC discussed the responses to the four questionnaires about issue identification.He said that the TAC recommends that the next step would be for all of the issue identification feedback to be assembled and brought to the Commission for its review,feedback,and addition of other issues at the February Commission meeting.Mr.Asche said that the TAC also recommends that the Commission discuss the Next Generation Plan planning process and communicate on how the process will happen. Chair Loomis safd that the Next Generation Plan issues will be on the February meeting and as part of that discussion the Commission can decide how it wants to proceed with the process and if it wants to call for a work session apart from a regular Commission meeting to work on the Plan. iii. Preparation of Feasibility Study for the 2013 CIP Project NL-2 (Wetland dredging adjacent to the Four Seasons Mall site).Mr.Asche said that this project is in the Commission's CIP as a water quality improvement project for Northwood Lake.He said that the Watershed Management Plan identi�es the project as a pond dredging project that has the potential to reduce 73 pounds of phosphorous annually from draining into Northwood Lake as well as 14% of the total loading going into Northwood Lake.Mr.Asche described the complexities of the project due to the unknowns of the adjacent project,which is the redevelopment of the Four Seasons Mall site. Mr.Asche summarized that the idea for the feasibility of this project is to broaden the scope of it and include other things besides the pond dredging that would contribute to the water quality improvement goal of an annual 73 pound reduction in phosphorus and 14% total loading draining into Northwood Lake.He noted some of the potential projects that could achieve the reductions and said that this feasibility report would focus on the various combinations of projects that could be undertaken to meet the goals. Mr.Asche noted that the TAC discussed at some length the benefit to having the information fro4n the P8 and XP-SWMM models that the Commission approved in its 2012 budget but hasn't yet moved ahead to order the work.He said that the TAC recommends that the Commission direct Barr Engineering to update both of those models and to start the updates with the Northwood Lake watershed.Mr.Asche said that he could prepare the scope of services for the feasibility study.He said that the TAC recommends that the Commission move forward with directing the feasibility study be prepared. Ms.Chandler noted that the first part of the study could be a presentation of the different options but the report needs to end with a recommendation otherwise the Commission would not have what it needs to order the project.Ms.Chandler stated that the Commission Engineer believes that this project would require a minor plan amendment and also that the Commission would need a do-not-exceed number for its t�levy by the Commission's June meeting. The Commission discussed the potential cost of the feasibility study.Mr.Asche said that he believes it would cost at least$50,000. 6 BCWMC January 19,2012,Meeting Minutes Ms.Gwin-Lenth asked what role New Hope will play in the scope of services.Mr.Asche said the City of Plymouth has met with the City of New Hope staff preliminarily on this project and the City will be involved in this project,which will be part of the scope of services. Acting Commissioner Johnson moved for Barr Engineering Company to proceed with doing the hydrologic and hydraulic modeling and the XP-SWMM modeling beginning with the Northwood Lake subwatershed and also moved that the City of Plymouth prepare the scope of services for the feasibility report and distribute the scope of services to the BCWMC's engineering pool.Commissioner Langsdorf seconded the motion. There was discussion about whether the Commission or the City of Plymouth would be the client for the feasibility study.Acting Commissioner Goddard brought up the issue of the project's time frame in relation to the Commission selecting who would be the client for the feasibility study. The Commission agreed that the quickest process would be for the City of Plymouth to handle the feasibility study. The Commission discussed the need for a resolution to be prepared for the Commission for its February meeting that would approve an agreement between the City of Plymouth and the Commission regarding the preparation of the feasibility report and the reimbursement for the costs of preparing the report.Chair Loomis directed legal counsel to prepare a draft of the necessary documents for the February meeting regarding the arrangement between the City of Plymouth and the BCWMC for the preparation of the feasibility report. Chair Loomis made the friendly amendment to the motion to include that the Commission is ordering the feasibility study for the CIP project NL-2,the City of Plymouth would be responsible for the feasibility study,and the BCWMC's legal counsel would prepare the agreement between the City of Plymouth and the BCWMC regarding the feasibility study. The friendly amendment was approved by Acting Commissioner Johnson and Commissioner Langsdorf.The motion carried unanimouslv with eisht votes in favor[City of Robbinsdale absent from vote]. C.

The Commission discussed the status of this agreement.Mr.LeFevere said that he had received yesterday a message from Commissioner Welch with some requested changes to the agreement.Mr.LeFevere said he thinks the Commission can work through those requested changes.He said Commissioner Welch feels that approval of the final plans and speci�cations and any changes in the tinal plans and speci�cations should come to the Commission instead of being delegated to the Commission Engineer.Mr.LeFevere said the Commission would need to discuss how it wants to handle the process. Mr.LeFevere said that if Minneapolis agrees with Commissioner Welch's requested changes,then Mr. LeFevere could bring alternate language to the next meeting and the Commission could decide at that time. Chair Loomis asked if anyone had thoughts on this now or if the Commission wants Counsel to draft the alternate language and the discussion would be part of the February meeting.The Commission agreed to direct Mr.LeFevere to draft the alternate language for review at the next BCWMC meeting. B. Update on Policy Manual Revisions.Mr.LeFevere noted that he and Ms.Chandler had worked on revisions as previously directed by the Commission and the revisions are in the meeting packet for the Commission review.Chair Loomis asked if the Commission wanted to go through the proposed changes now or send the proposed changes to the administrative services committee.Mr.LeFevere said it would be a good idea to receive the Commission's thoughts on reorganization of the funds section of the document.He suggested that he and Ms. Chandler put together a short memo for the 8 BCWMC January 19,2012,Meeting Minutes Administrative Services Committee.Chair Loomis said that the Committee has a meeting scheduled for January 27`�'. 7`.C(?MML�I�TCAT�QN� ,Y; ,�" �. .r , `''. � '� �, .

E. 2. Purchase Sewer Televising Camera and Transporter Prepared By Jeannine Clancy, Director of Public Works Bert Tracy, Public Works Maintenance Manager Dave Lemke, Utilities Maintenance Supervisor Summary The 2012-16 Capital Improvement Program, Water and Sewer Systems (W&SS-053, page 88) includes$24,000 for the purchase of a sewer televising camera and transporter for television mainline sewers. As listed below,the new camera is $5,077.48 over budget. However,the 2012 Water and Sewer System CIP purchase of the sidewalk sweeper and air compressor were under budget by$6,003.33. Staff recommends utilizing the remaining budget balance from the sidewalk sweeper and air compressor purchase to cover the purchase of the new sewer televising camera. The City of Golden Valley has a sewer main line camera to check the condition of sanitary and storm sewer main lines throughout the City. This camera has the ability to rotate 360 degrees making it possible to view a sewer line from a variety of angles increasing maintenance efficiency. The camera is also equipped with a lateral launch camera allowing maintenance to inspect sewer laterals from the main line. Utility maintenance staff inspects sewer lines for things such as grease, roots and anything else that has the potential to cause an obstruction in the system. Staff inspects the pipe for signs of degradation, inflow and infiltration, and need of repair and/or replacement. The sewer main line camera is also utilized for emergency response inspection of sewer backups and main line failures. The camera inspection works in conjunction with the high pressure sewer jetter and combination jetter vactor truck to verify quality of cleaning. The new sewer televising camera will replace the original camera which is five years old.The original camera will be utilized as a backup camera. Sewer televising cameras are a rough service camera designed to operate in poor conditions. As cameras age, the out of service time due to repairs and malfunctions reduces production and efficiencies. Purchasing the new camera will reduce out of service time and utilizing the old camera as a backup will further reduce out of service time. The end result is increased efficiencies with less out of service time caused by repairs and malfunctions. Staff has received the following quotations for the purchase of camera and transporter: Flexible Pipe Tool Company $29,077.48 Envirotech Equipment Company $30,486.09 Recommended Action Motion to approve the purchase of Aries sewer televising camera and transporter, including Minnesota sales tax, in the amount of$29,077.48 from Flexible Pipe Tool Company. �� . �,.'

Acknowledge and Approve Cooperative Agreement for Bassett Creek Main Stem Restoration between the Bassett Creek Watershed Management Commission and the City of Minneapolis Prepared By Jeannine Clancy, Director of Public Works Eric Eckman, Public Works Specialist Summary The Bassett Creek Watershed Management Commission (BCWMC) has determined that it is in the best interest of its member communities and the BCWMC to address water quality concerns along the Main Stem of Bassett Creek. The creek has experienced diminished water quality due to streambank erosion and sediment deposition. The BCWMC has a capital improvement program which has identified a number of water quality improvements along Bassett Creek, including the Streambank Restoration of the Main Stem from Golden Valley Road in the City of Golden Valley to Irving Avenue North in Minneapolis. Please see the attached map for project location. The project is located within Theodore Wirth Regional Park and the City of Minneapolis. The City of Minneapolis, acting through its Park and Recreation Board, will design and construct the project and administer the contract.The total project cost eligible for reimbursement by the BCWMC is $856,000. Because the portion of the project in Theodore Wirth Park is located within the City of Golden Valley, the City must acknowledge and approve the terms of the agreement between BCWMC and the City of Minneapolis. If Council approves this agreement, it is anticipated that construction of this project will begin in 2012.

Bom in Mpls, and raised in Streeter, N.D., Ed had a passion for engineering before he even �� knew what it was. As a kid, he used to dream of building a canal from the Missouri River to his tiny hometown and he would practice redirecting water in the tracks of horse-drawn buggies in the alley behind his home. Ed called it "child's play," but it turned out to be a tiny likeness of the hydrology work that would dominate his 40-year career at the University of Minnesota's St. Anthony Falls Laboratory(SAFL or later referred to as"the Lab"), serving as both its co-developer in 1946 and later its director from 1963 to 1974, where he hamessed the power of the Mississippi River for several decades. In 1935 and 1937, he respectively eamed Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in Civil Engineering with High Distinction. He worked at several short-term projects in Minnesota, Kansas and Tennessee before taking employment with the U.S. Bureau of Air Commerce that later became the Civil Aeronautics Authority (CAA). His military career began in ROTC at the U of M. In May 1941, Ed was called to active duty as a First Lieutenant in the Coast Artillery Reserve and was relieved from active duty as a Major in the Corps of Engineers in January 1946, following the end of WWII. He served in the reserve long enough to reach retirement as Lt. Colonel. Following W1NI1, after a short stint with the CAA, Ed returned to the U of M in 1946 as a Research Associate at the Lab. He remained at the U for the remainder of his professional career, through the ranks of Assistant, Associate and Full Professor in 1957. In October 1963, he became Director of the Lab, a post he served until July 1974. Ed formally retired in December 1981, but continued as an Adjunct Professor until 1988. As Professor Emeritus, he maintained an o�ce at the Lab and continued commuting every Wednesday to mentor graduate students and critique their presen-tations, until recent months. His rewarcling academic life also entailed many outside activities including honorary and lifetime memberships in the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and the Society of American Military Engineers (SAME.) As a Civil Engineering faculty member, he chaired numerous committees, and was active in organizing and participating in conferences intemationally representing the Lab, professional societies and the U.S. Govemment. For the Bassett Creek Water Manage- ment Commission, he served as an Assist. Commissioner in 9973 and Commissioner in 1974, representing the city of Golden Valley on the Bassett Creek Flood Control Commission, now the Bassett Creek Water Management Commission. In 1975, Ed was elected treasurer of the Commission, In 1991, he was elected to the grade of Honorary Member of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), considered one of the highest forms of civil engineering peer recognition. For his lifetime accomplishments he was awarded the Charles W. Britzius Distinguished Engineer Award in 2008, given by the Minnesota Federation of Engineering to the engineer who best exhibits longstanding dedication and service to the field. Many of the 300 engineers who were there to honor him during the award presentation had been his students. In 2006, he organized Minneapolis North High School's 75th Class Reunion. Throughout his lifetime, Ed was athletic in mind, body and spirit. In his college years, Ed played tag football, baseball and tennis, pool and chess. He also tutored college friends with their math, drawing and physics classes. He served as a Scoutmaster for many years. He and his wife Idell enjoyed travel spanning the globe, during their 60-year marriage. A recipient of seven joint replacement surgeries (including 3 hips, both shoulders and knees), Ed was an avid tennis player until the age of 91. He continued to play bridge and enjoy additional mind stimulatian games including newspaper daily bridge clubs and New Yo�k Times crossword puzzles until his passing.

Chair, ,� Basset#Creek W�ateished Management Commission c�i�i�rvt snzss-i Commission�r Edward Silberman — Commissioner Edward Silberman represented the ciiy of Golden Valley on the Ba$sett Creek Watershed Management Gommission{BCWiVIC)frorn 1974 to 2000. Commissioner Silberman was a grofessor at the Universiiy of Minnesota, specializing in hydraulic engineering, and taught water resouxces engineering at the Ins#itute of Technology. The planning and implementation of the Bassett Creek Flood Control Project was campleted during his tenuure with the BCWMC. Commissioner Silberman rnade significant contributions to the BCWMC's effarts to reduce flooding problems along Bassett Creek and in the watershed. When the project was campleted in 1996 it reduced average annual flaad damages by more than$1,000,000. An advocate for multi-use wat+er resource managem�ent facilities, he insisted that flood storage areas also provide water quality irnprovement and wildlife habita.t enhancement. — Commissioner Silberman was an avid"user"of the watershed. Serving on the BCWMC was a natural fit,based on his background in water resources and his appreciation af the beauty of Bassett Creek. He often hiked along the creek and commented on the imgortance of preserving the naiural setting and promoting aesthetic measures to improve the appearance of watershed prajects. —: Commissioner Silberman presented a paper at the Apzil ]976 ASCE National Water Resources Canference on the public participation program implemented by the BCWMC in developing its Bassett Creek Flood Control Plan. A strong supporter of public involvement in decision-making on large public projects,he wrote; "Incxernenta]plan development has been so effective that the Commission did not have to take a forrnal vote to adopt its final plan. This was not an accident but rather the xesult of a carefiilly conducted melding of bureaucratic and public input by the Bassett Creek Flaod Cantrol Cammission."Commissianer Silberman was one of the architects of that public-participation process. - Commissioner Silberman was the Director of the St.Anthony Fa11s Hydraulics Laboratory (SAFL) for several years.At SAFL,he worked with the Minnesota Department of Transportation(MnDOT�to d�evelop the plan for the submerged flutlet af the Bassett Creek tunnel at the Mississippi River below St. Anthony Falls. He conduct�iterative model siudies of the outlet to minimize the effect af outflows on river traffic. — Cammissioner Silberman's leadership,along with support from cities in the watershed, was instrumental in the development of the BCWMC's long-term water quality improvement effarts.This initiative resulted in the implementation of sorne of Minnesota's first surface-water-quality-treatment facilities during the 19$Os. Other key BCWMC accomplishments during Commissioner Silberman's tenure include: o In 1483 the�CWMC received a gr�n#from the Environment�l Protection Agency to begin implementing water quality improvement projects for Medicine Lake. o In January 1992 the BCWMC's flood prevention and water quality impravement efforts on Bassett Creek received a"Seven Wonders of Engineering"award from the Minnesota Svciety of Professional Engineers. o In 1993 the BCWMC adopted the Bassett Creek Watershed Water Quality Management Plan and began a seven-year study to identify water quality improvements necessary ta meet water quality standards. o In 1996 the BCWMC, MnDOT, and the U.S.Army Corps af Engineers completed a major regional water quality improvement project at Bassett Creek Park in the city of Crystai.
