Sincerely, v v �� �� Warren Peterson Lubrication Technologies, Inc. Regular Meeting of the Golden Valley Planning Commission March 15, 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 Thursday, March 15, 2Q12. 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 and Administrative Assistant Lisa Wittman. 1. Approval of Minutes February 13, 2012 Regular Planning Commission Meeting McCarty stated that he misunderstaod the motion regarding the pubtic hearing for the proposed PUD on Triton Drive. He said that if he had understaod it he would have changed his vote. The Commission discussed their understanding of the motion and suggested that McCarty write a letter to the Council explaining his concerns. MOVED by Schmidgall, seconded by Cera and motion carried unanimously to approve the F�bruary 13, 2012 minutes as submitted. 2. Informal Public Hearing — Subdivision — 15 Meadow Lane North — SU08-10 Applicant: Golden Valley Land Co. — Matt Pavek Address: 15 Meadow Lane North Purpose: Ta allow the applicant ta divide one single family residential lot into four single family residential lots (the existing hame will remain) Grimes referred to a site plan of the property and explained that the applicant is propasing ta keep the existing home and divide the 2.1 acre lot into four single family residential lots. He stated that the applicant is requesting a variance of 5 feet to allow the corner lot (Lot 2) to be 95 feet in width instead of 100 feet as required along Meadow Lane North. (The applicant's original request was for Lot 2 to be 90 feet in width).He stated that all of the proposed lots exceed the minimum lot size requirement and conform to fhe requirements of the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning Code. Waldhauser asked if the variance request will haue to go to #he Board of Zoning Appeals. Grimes said no and explained that the City Council would grant variances from the Subdivision Code whereas the Board af Zoning Appeals would grant variances from the Zoning Code. Waldhauser referred to the City Engineer's staff repart where it states that a buffer around the pond is "encouraged." She questioned if the buffer could be required in order to help Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission March 15, 2012 Page 2 filter the water. Grimes stated that the applicant prefers to keep the existing landscaping that currently exists around the pond. McCarty noted that a buffer would also help keep geese out of the pond. Segelbaum asked where the additional 5 feet came from in order to make the corner lot 95 feet in width rather than 9Q feet as originally proposed. Grimes stated that the applicant shifted the lots in order to make the corner lot be 95 feet in width. Waldhauser asked about the setback from the wetland. Grimes stated that there is a 25- faot setback required from the wetland. Kluchka referred to the Planning staff report where it states that corner lots have to 20 feet greater than interior lots and asked for clarification. Grimes explained that the Subdivisian Code requires interior lots to be 80 feet in width and corner lots to be 100 feet width, which is 20 feet greater. Kisch asked if both property lines along a corner lot have to measure 100 feet in width. Grimes said both property lines are required to be 100 feet in width and explained that the width of a lot is measured at the front setback line and the narrower side af a lot is considered to be the front. Segelbaum noted that one of the criteria for approval listed in the Planning staff report states that a subdivision request shall be denied if the proposed lots do not meet the requirements of the appropriate zoning district. Grimes stated that the proposed lots can meet the requirements of the Single Family Zoning District; the variance request is from the Subdivision Code. Se�elbaum asked if the City has any authority to deny this proposal. Grimes said, in his opinion, no. Waldhauser clarified that there are two issues. One is the subdivision request and one is the variance request. She suggested they vote on the items separately. McCarty referred to the City Engineer's memo where it states that the builder must "ensure" that each stormwater management plan submitted meets the lowest floor elevation requirements. He said he thinks the word "ensure" is ambiguous and hard to enforce. Grimes explained that the applicant, per ordinance, wilf have to submit stormwater management plans that meet the City's requirements. Kluchka asked Grimes if he is aware of any covenants on this property that would limit the ability to subdivide it. Grimes said no. Peter Knaeble, Terra Engineering, explained that all of the plans submitted represent conforming lots. He explained that they are asking for a variance on the width of Lot 2 as an aptional plan that would allow Lot 3 to be shifted slightly in order to allow the house to be built further away from the pond. He stated that if the City doesn't feel that the variance is justifiable they can still do the project using conforming lot widths. Knaeble referred to a site plan of the property and reiterated that the praposal is to keep the existing home and allow three new homes to be built which he feels is a benefit to Golden Valley. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commissian March 15, 2012 Page 3 Knaeble stated that each lot will be custom graded and they are estimating 20 out of the 128 trees, or 15% of the trees will be removed. The tree preservation plan allows up to 40% of the trees ta be removed. He explained that they've looked at several options and if the existing house were remaved there could be six conforming lots on this property. He noted that the lots they are proposing are fairly large and will be bigger than the average lots in the neighborhood. He explained that they have three goals in developing this property. One is to keep the existing house and design large lots around it, the second goal is to maintain the look of the pond view on the corner lot (Lot 4) and third goal is to maintain the perimeter trees as much as possible. He showed the Commissian an illustration of other subdivisions done in the area and noted that this is the last of the lots in this area that hasn't been subdivided. Knaeble showed the Commission a picture of the pond and said his goal is to keep it the way it is, without the recommended vegetative buffer. He said he understands the requirements regarding the buffer area but a buffer strip would not be appropriate in this location because of the size of the watershed. Waldhauser asked about the maintenance of the pond. Knaeble stated that three properties will share the maintenance responsibility and will also meet the City and watershed requirements. He added that the City will have a public drainage and utility easement over the pond and an access easement an Meadaw Lane which they do not currently have today. McCarty asked Knaebls why he is against having the vegetative buffer strip around the pond. Knaeble said he thinks a 10 to 15-foot un-mown buffer strip will ruin the views and be a detriment to the neighborhood. He added that the existing grass around the pond will pravide some filtration. Kluchka asked Knaeble if there is any history af the pond flooding. Knaeble said he wasn't aware of a history of the pond flooding. Waldhauser asked about the elevation of the house on Lot 3 compared to the elevation of the pond. Knaeble stated that the pond has an elevation of 859 and the lowest floor elevation will be 2 feet above that. Waldhauser asked where the 25-foot setback from the pond is measured from. Knaeble stated that the setback is measured from the edge of the delineated wetland edge, not the water. Segelbaum referred to Lot 3 and asked how far away the house would be from the pond if the requested variance is granted. Knaeble said the variance would allow the home on Lot 3 ta be shifted five feet to north so the home would then be approximately 30 feet away from the pond. Kisch noted that another 350 square feet of floor space could be added to the house if the variance were granted. Kluchka asked if any consideration was given to subdividing the property into three lots instead of faur. Knaeble said no and reiterated that they are looking at subdividing the property into four lots with no variances. He added that they would like to have the 5-foot variance but they don't need it to subdivide the property. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission March 15, 2012 Page 4 Waldhauser opened the public hearing. Donald Brawne, 4135 Leber Lane, said his immediate concern is the pand and he was pleased to learn that it won't be filled in. His second concern is regarding the quality of the houses being built and if there were just 3 lots total it would alleviate some his concerns. He added that this neighborhood is more historic than others and he wants ta know what kind af protection there will be. Leone Fox, 4125 Leber Lane, said she has a problem with flooding and the entire area was once swampland. She stated that when the original owner of the subject property built the house he was told he had to install the pond, so it is not purely decorative and at various times it averflows. She said the more structures that are built the less room there is for water to seep into the ground. She stated that three years ago the pond overflowed and water went into the existing home's basement. She asked that a special study be done and the DNR be consulted before anything is done. Anna Murray, 12 Meadow Lane North, said there have been 3, 100-year rains since 1979 and water comes gushing down Meadow Lane causing the drains to get filled up with debris and the pond to overflaw. She said Lot 4 is very low, will hav� to be "built up" and will drain toward the pond. She referred to the proposed driveway on Lot 4 and said she would be Iooking at that long driveway and she doesn't understand why there can't be a shorter driveway onto Glenwood rather than the praposed long driveway onto Meadow Lane. She added that she thought there was a Supreme Gourt law that says variances can't be granted unless a lot can't be built on at aIL Mary Jo Browne, 4135 Leber Lane, said her concern is the way the praposed driveways are configured. She stated that there is a median with a sign on Meadow Lane and the sign gets knock�d down, so the driveways coming onto Meadow Lane with the concrete median seems to be too much for this lot. She stated that she doesn't want to have to be watching for cars coming out of the driveways every time she drives down Meadow Lane. She asked if the new houses will be compatible with the neighborhood and questioned why the driveways can't be on Glenwood instead of Meadow Lane. Peter Knaeble explained that the homeowner on Lot 4 could ask to have a driveway on Glenwood but they would need permission from the County ta da so. He said he assumes the homeowner would want to have their driveway on a quieter street, would want to have a Meadaw Lane address and would not want to cut down trees along Glenwood to instafl a driveway. He added that three additional driveways on a residential street would not overtax the street. He referred to the comments made about the pond flooding and explained that he doesn't know if the flooding of the basement in the past was caused from the pond overflowing or from water coming off the roof. He added that they will be upgrading the outlet pipe of the pond. Waldhauser asked if the outlet upgrade is based on certain calculations. Knaeble said the calculations are based on the proposed development. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission March 15, 2012 Page 5 Leslie Blessing, 3940 Glenwood Ave, said she would also like the driveway on Lot 4 to be on Glenwood. She stated that she used to live in a low lying area in St. Louis Park and a neighboring property owner changed the grade of their property, folfowing all the regulations, but it significantly changed the drainage on her property. She said she appreciates the view of the subject property and it is important not to have the 10-foot buffer around the pond. Carolyn Brunelle, 4211 Glencrest Road, asked if the developer will be required to replace the trees being removed. Waldhauser said no. Brunelle said she wants to see other projects this developer has done and she wants to know the timeframe af this project. She said the proposed lang driveway on Lot 4 will create a dangerous left turn into the driveway. Heather Fraser, 115 Maddaus Lane, said she has lost several vehicles due to flooding. She said she is not sure how the driveways along Leber Lane will fit because there is a 4- foot high retaining wall along Leber Lane. She said she doesn't understand the footprint size of the houses and she likes the pond without the buffer. She referred to the picture shown of the pond and asked which season the picture was taken in and how big the pond gets after a big rain. She suggested that the developer check the history of the flooding on the properiy and how high the pond has been. Eva Jensen, 4010 Roanoke Circle, said she is very pleased with the value Golden Valley places on trees and the environment but she is startled to hear that 40% of the trees are allowed to be removed. She asked if that count considers the size, type and age of the trees and stated that there is mostly buckthorn along Glenwood Ave, She asked about fencing codss, the proposed footprint size of the houses and the amount of space between Lots 2 and 3. She added that she is also concerned about the quality of construction and their compatibility with the neighborhood. Harry Pulver, 105 Meadow l.ane, said he is not happy about this proposal. He stated that Golden Valley is a first ring suburb that doesn't feel like it and he questions if this proposal needs to be four lots. He said the whole neighborhood is built on a swamp and his backyard gets floaded. He said this is a precarious situation that should be looked at very carefully. Bruce Pappas, 20 Ardmore Drive, said he emailed the developer before this meeting and was told by him that all af the lots were conforming to City Code. Now he is at this meeting hearing that the developer is requesting a variance. He said his plea to the Planning Commission is that they not make it easier on the developer because what he is proposing is a bastardization of this property. He noted that the developer has said he could subdivide this property into six conforming lots and questioned if the fact that he is only proposing three new lots is supposed to make the neighbors feel good. He said it doesn't seem right that the pond can be used when figuring the square footage of these lots and asked the Commission to abide by the codes and not grant the variance. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commissivn March 15, 2012 Page 6 Emett Carpel, 24 Ardmore Drive, asked if it has been cansidered to make Lots 2 and 3 into one lot. He said the iconic view of this property will no longer be iconic. He added that he understands how this development will improve the tax base but questi4ned how it will improve the neighborhood. Tom Hansen, 4116 Glencrest Road, referred to the Housing Goals, Objectives and Policies section of the City's Camprehensive Plan and ques�tioned how they wauld be met if this subdivision is approved. He noted that the Comprehensive Plan states that the housing goals would be met through multi-family developments not infill. He stated that the lot sizes in this area are much larger than the lots in this proposal and questioned what the Gity is doing to protect the historical value of the neighborhood. Curt Olson, 80Q Tyrol Trail, said he agrees with what has been said. He asked if Lot 4 could be split again in the future to allow for another home; if so, that would be a shame. He asked if anything can be done to stop further development. Anna Murray, 12 Meadow Lane North, asked if there has been any consideration given to rain gardens since there has been so much talk about flooding. Lisa Morley, 4006 Roanoke Circle, referred to other hauses in the area that are for sate or took a long time to sell. She asked if these proposed houses are being built on "spec" and what will happen if they don't sell. She said she doesn't understand where the demand is for these houses. Chis Oldenburg, 240 Meadow Lane North, said he agrees with so many things that have been said. He said he was part of a minor subdivision that occurred at 240 Meadow Lane approximately 10 years ago and his understanding is that there is more standing water on the property now as a result of the grading that was done at that time. Carolyn Brunelle, 4211 Glencrest Road, said it seems problematic to her to allow three people to awn one pond. Vicki McGinty, 4500 Sunset Ridge, said there is a reason she moved to this area but it has not been easy to stay since the taxes in Golden Valley are horrific and the property values have gone down. She said there is absolutely no benefit to this project. She said it is not about being selfish ar not wanting change, the project just isn't practicaf and doesn't make sense: She said maybe one additional house would be ok but not four. She said it miffs her that the neighbors have so little control over things that impact them. Chris Downey, 125 Meadow Lane North, asked if these lots would be able to be split again in the future and agreed that there has been a lot of flooding in the area. Pam Lott, 220 Sunnyridge Lane, said she was assured there would be no water problems when a subdivision was dane in her neighborhood approximately 15 years ago and there have been water problems ever since so maybe the city engineers should go back to schooL Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission � March 15, 2012 Page 7 Bruce Monick, 4215 Poplar Drive, said this is a very important piece of the neighborhood. He said the stop sign on the corner af Meadow Lane and Glenwood is run over about six or seven times per year and it is very dangerous. He said it will be difficult for peopfe ta get out of the proposed driveways on Meadow Lane and that this proposal does not keep the property as a park-like setting. He said he would like Lot 4 to have the driveway on Glenwood instead of Meadow Lane and asked if the house plans will have to be approved by a City body. Seeing and hearing no one else wishing to comment, Waldhauser closed the public hearing. Schmidgall grouped the questions together for discussian. His first group of questions is related to the pond, rain gardens, flooding, the proposal that three people own the pond and the vegetative buffer around tMe pond. Grimes said the City Engineer's memo addresses the issues af the pond. He said some people may not agree with him, but he is the professional engineer for the City and it his opinion that with the homes built 2 feet above the 100-year flood elevation there should not be problems with flooding in this situation. Kluchka asked who is responsible if the pond doesn't wark. Grimes said if there is a 500- year flood, it won't work. Grimes added that the City will have an easement over the pond so it will be under the control of, and maintained by, the City. Waldhauser reiterated that the pond was built just for the watershed of this property. Knaeble added that the pond will be owned by Lots 1, 3 and 4 and there will be a restrictive covenant on the deed regarding that ownership. Schmidgall said the next group of issues to be discussed is relating to traffic and the location of driveways. Grimes explained that as often as passible, the City likes to see driveways located on the streets with the lowest amount of traffic. He said he doesn't think Hennepin County would like to see curb cuts onto Glenwoad Avenue but the awner could apply for a permit through the County. He noted that the locations of the driveways on the site plans are illustrative at this point and could change. Schmidgall said the next questions were regarding the iconic view of the pond and the potential to further subdivide the property. Waldhauser said she did not think Lot 1 could be further split because there wouldn't be street access. She noted that a homeowner could purchase additional property to obtain the correct amount of frontage. She said it seems Lot 4 could potentially be split. McCarty said he daesn't think there would be enough setback area available ta split Lot 4 any further. Grimes explained that every praperty owner has the right to propose a subdivision if they meet the requirements. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission March 15, 2012 Page 8 Schmidgall referred to the questians regarding the quality of the homes and the size of the homes' footprints. Grimes stated that as long as a house meets the requirements of the Zoning Code and Building Code it can be built. He stated that the City daes not have design criteria but based on the value of the homes in this area, he would guess that these proposed homes would also be valuable. Schmidgall agreed that the location of the homes will demand quality. Schmidgall asked about fencing and said his understanding is that homeowners can install 6-foot high fences if they want to. Grimes stated that private deed restrictions regarding fences cauld be placed on the properties however, deed restrictions are not enforced by the City. He added that the Zoning Code does allow 4-foot high fences in front yards and 6-foat high fences in side and rear yards. Schmidgall asked about the tree preservation concerns. Grimes stated that the City daes have a tree preservation ordinance that the developer will have to follow. He noted that there will be a tree plan and a grading plan for each lot. He reiterated that the applicant is proposing to remove 20 trees. He added that he believes trees add value to property and developers don't typically remove more trees than necessary. Schmidgall stated the requested variance seems to be more af an afterthought. He would not be in favor of granting the variance requested because something very nice could be built on this property without a variance. Kluchka asked Grimes to give an update of the Supreme Court ruling regarding variances. Grimes explained that the Supreme Court ruling is in regard to the Zoning Code requirements. The vari�nce being requested for this proposal is a variance from the Subdivision Code. Kluchka asked about the timeframe for the project and if the houses are being built on "spec" and where the demand is coming from. Knaebte said he hopes to have the plat finalized by the end of May or the beginning of June and depending on the market, finro or three of the homes may start construction this summer. Grimes added that if the market is nat there, the land will just sit as is. Knaeble agreed and said he would be responsible for maintaining the property. He added that these lots will be sold to families who want to build houses using their own builder; they will not be building "spec" homes. Kisch asked Knaeble if he has thought about covenants or restrictive deeds regarding fences and the pond. Knaeble said they have considered restrictive deeds regarding fences and the pond, but he can't guarantee them. Kluchka asked Knaeble if he knew the possible footprint or size of the new homes. Knaeble said they don't have designs for the houses because it will depend on what the homeowners decide to build. He sxplained that whatever is built wilt meet the Zoning Code requirements and he would expect that the quality of the new homes to meet or exceed the homes in the area. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission March 15, 2012 Page 9 Waldhauser asked how much space there would be between the homes on Lots 2 and 3. Knaeble said there would be a minimum of 25 feet between the homes on Lots 2 and 3. Waldhauser asked if there will be enough room to allow for a larger setback if the hames are taller than 15 feet in height as required. Grimes said yes, if the homes are tatler than 15 feet the side yard setback requirements will increase. Segelbaum asked Knaeble to comment on the lat sizes. Knaeble said the average lot size for the whole development is approximately one-half acre which exceeds the neighborhood average. He added that he would not expect that it wauld be feasible to further split these lots in the future. Kluchka referred to the residents' comments about the goals and objectives in the Comprehensive Plan. Waldhauser said she thinks any paragraph or sentence in the Comprehensive Plan could be interpreted a number of ways. Kisch agreed and said the Comprehensive Plan guides decisions and has vision statements that the City hopes ta attain, but the Gity still has to follow its ordinances and codes. Waldhauser stated that many homeowners are nat interested in having large lots. They . want nice homes on smaller lots. Schmidgall agreed that the Comprehensive Plan is intended to guide or inform. He said he wants these propased new homes to be attractive to families wanting to move into Golden Valley and they provide opportunity for the kinds of goals and objectives mentioned in the Comprehensive Plan. He said he is in favor of supporting this propasal. Kisch stated that the City really can't deny subdivisions that conform to the requirements. He said he doesn't think the requested variance is needed because the homes can be of great quality and conform to the requirements without the need for a variance. He also said he would like to strongly encourage restrictions on fences. Segelbaum said he agrees that the City doesn't have much right to deny this proposal. He said he thinks it would be difficult ta further subdivide Lot 4 in the future. He added that he would be in favor of granting the requested variance because moving the house on Lot 3 further away from the pond would create a safer environment and would make it less prone to flooding. Grimes agreed that these lots would be very difficult to subdivide any further. Waldhauser stated that compliance with the normal lot regulations in this case isn't an issue. She said she doesn't have concerns about granting the requested variance because there will be net improvements as a result, but she would like to separate the issues into two vote�. She said she feels confident there wilf be beautiful homes built on the property. She referred to a question regarding how many more infill opportunities there are in the area and said she doesn't think there are a lot of opportunities left. Minutes of the Golden Vafley Planning Commission March 15, 2012 Page 10 MOVED by Cera, seconded by McCarty and motion carried unanimously to recommend approval of the subdivision request with the following conditions: 1. No variances from the lot size requirements shall be granted. 2. Deed restrictions regarding fences will be strongly encouraged. 3. Covenants regarding the ownership and maintenance of the pond will be strongly encouraged. 4. The City Attorney will determine if a title review is necessary prior to approval of the final plat. 5. A park dedication fee of$4,885.90 shall be paid before final plat approval. 6. The City Engineer's memorandum, dated March 7, 2012 shall become part ofi this appraval. 7. A Subdivision Agreement will be drafted for review and appraval by the Gity Council that will include issues found in the City Engineer's memorandum. 8. All applicable City permits shall be obtained prior to the development of the new lots. Knaeble asked if he could also get a recommendation regarding the buffer strip around the pond. Kluchka said he doesn't feel the buffer strip issue is within the Planning Commission's purview. Grimes stated that staff will have further discussion with the applicant regarding best management practices for buffer strips around ponds. Cera suggested that the setback requirement from the wetland area be 30 feet rather than 25 feet on Lot 3. Kisch asked the applicant if he would be open to the idea of a larger setback from the wetland area. Knaeble said he would not be open to that idea, but he would be open to shifting Lot 3, in its entirety 5 fieet further narth. M4VED by Segelbaum, seconded by Waldhauser and motion carried 5 to 2 to recommend approval of the subdivision request with the following conditions: 4. A variance allowing Lot 2 to be 95 feet (rather than 100 feet) in width along Meadow Lane shall be granted. 5. Deed restrictions regarding fences will be strongly encouraged. 6. The setback requirement from the wetland area on all lots shall be 30 feet. 7. Covenants regarding the pond will be strongly encouraged. 4. The City Attorney will determine if a title review is necessary prior to approval of the final plat. 5. A park dedication fee of $4,885.90 shall be paid before final plat approval. 6.

Public Hearing-Amending the Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan and Renaming It the I-394 Corridor Redevelopment Plan Prepared By Jeanne Andre, Assistant Director, Hausing and Redevelopment Authority Summary � In 2010 staff and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) worked on revising the Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan ta reflect the changes to the City's Comprehensive Plan that came out of the I-394 Corridor Study. The goal was to amend the existing redevelopment plan to incorporate zoning changes implemented in 2008 and to expand the geagraphic area in the Redevelopment Plan to better correspond to the I-394 Mixed Use Zoning District, Proposed changes were reviewed by the City Council at a Council/Manager Meeting, by the Planning Commission and by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority at a public hearing that extended aver two meetings. Staff made plan revisions in keeping with the discussion that occurred during this process, but at its April 11, 2011, the HRA decided to defer final consideration of the amended plan because of continued uncertainties related to redevelopment of the MnDOT parcel, lacated at the east end of the redevelopment area. Continued negotiations between MnDOT, Global Qne Commercial and Metrapolitan Council Environmental Services have clarified development options for the area to the point that staff now recommends proceeding to update the redevelopment plan and expand its geographic area. The Plan was adopted by the HRA on March 13. On March 26 the Planning Commissian found that the Redevelopment Plan is cvnsistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Formal adoption of the Plan is before the City Council. The Planning Commission also recommended that the description of the Central Area (Map E) denote that the former Olympic Printing buildings at 701 and 801 Xenia Avenue South have been removed. The attached Plan reflects that change. Following a public hearing the Council should consider the attached Resolution that adopts the I-394 Carridor Redevelopment Plan, which is the Amended and Expanded Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan. The plan as presented generally corresponds to the I-394 Mixed Use Zoning District.

Recitals. 1.01. On October 16, 1984 the City adopted the Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan, which it amended on December 11, 1998. 1.02. It has been proposed that the City modify the Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan (the "Plan") as defined by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.002, subdivision 16, by updating actions taken to date to fulfill the Plan, by expanding the area included in the Plan in keeping with the I-394 Corridor Study, by outlining actions yet to be taken, and by renaming it the I-394 Corridor Redevelopment Plan. 1.03. The Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Golden Valley ("the HRA") has investigated the facts and pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.001 to 469.047, has caused to be prepared a proposed revision of the Plan (the "Revised Plan") for the I-394 Corridor Redevelopment Area setting forth the information specified in Section 1.02, which it adopted on March 13, 2012. 1.04. On March 26, 2012, the Planning Commission reviewed the Revised Plan and found it in conformance with the City's Comprehensive Plan. 1.05. On April 5, 2012 notice of a public hearing on the desirability of amending the Plan was published, as required by law, in the official newspaper of the City. 1.06. The Council held a public hearing on the Revised Plan on April 17, 2012. Section 2. Approval of Revised Redevelopment Plan. On the basis of the Revised Plan adopted by the HRA and the information elicited from consultation with the Planning Commission and at the public hearing referenced above: 2.01. The Revised Plan proposes that the Authority undertake certain redevelopment activities for the purpose of encouraging redevelopment of properties in the Redevelopment Area. The Council hereby finds that the Revised Plan would improve the Redevelopment Area by retarding blight and encouraging private redevelopment of property therein, thereby increasing employment and housing opportunities and the tax base of the City and overlapping taxing jurisdictions. Resolution 12-30 - Continued April 17, 2012 2.02. The Council hereby finds that in certain cases the land in the Revised Redevelopment Project Area would not or may not be made available without the financial aid sought since private developers could not economically develop the Revised Redevelopment Project Area without the proposed redevelopment activities. 2.03. The Council hereby finds that the Revised Plan will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole, for the development of the Revised Redevelopment Project Area by private enterprise. 2.04. The Council hereby finds that the Revised Plan conforms to the general plan for the development or redevelopment of the City as a whole and is compatible with the City's zoning ordinances and other related regulations and encourages efficient use of existing infrastructure as set forth in the City's Land Use Plan. It is in the best interests of the City to approve the Revised Plan. 2.05. The Council hereby approves the Revised Plan attached hereto as Attachment A and directs that it be placed on file in the office of the City Clerk. Shepard M. Harris, Mayor ATTEST: Susan M. Virnig, City Clerk The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was seconded by Member and upon a vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: and the following voted against the same: whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted, signed by the Mayor and his signature attested by the City Clerk. Attachment A I-394 Corridor Redevelopment Plan (Amended and Expanded Golden Hilis Redevelopment Plan) Section 1. Introduction In 1984 the City adopted the Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan. The Project Area originally covered 93.72 acres of commercial and industrial properties centered near the anticipated intersection of Xenia Avenue and the to-be-constructed I-394. It is now expanded to include 272.19 acres and renamed the I-394 Corridor Redevelopment Plan. All areas in the expanded area are designated in Maps A and B and in individual maps detailing each subdistrict. The original redevelopment area had a westerly boundary of Colorado Avenue and a northerly boundary on Laurel Avenue. (Includes Areas designated South, East, Central and West.) In 1999 the Project Area was expanded to take in property north of Laurel Avenue along a corridor that extended Xenia Avenue northward and incorporated the new Davis Community Center. (Added the area designated Xenia Avenue Extension.) In 2007 the City completed the I-394 Corridor Study, which included most of the Golden Hills Redevelopment Area and the largely industrial property extending west to Rhode Island Avenue South. The amended Plan expands the amended Golden Hills Redevelopment Project Area to include parts of the I-394 Corridor Study Area and renames the Plan to reflect this addition. (Adds areas designated Florida, Louisiana East, Louisiana West, and Rhode Island.)

Statement of Need and Public Purpose, Statutory Authorization The Authority finds that there is a need for development within the City and the Project Area in order to provide employment and housing opportunities, to improve the local tax base, and to improve the general economy of the City and the State. The economic security of the people in the City depends upon proper development of property that meets any one of a number of conditions, including properties whose values are too low to pay for the public services required or rendered and properties whose lack of use or improper use has resulted in stagnant or unproductive land that could otherwise contribute to the public health, safety, and welfare. The Authority finds that in many cases such property cannot be developed without public participation and assistance in various forms including property acquisition and/or write- down, proper planning, the financing of development costs associated with clearance, grading and soils correction, and the making of various other public and private improvements necessary for development. In cases where the development of property cannot be done by private enterprise alone, the Authority believes it to be in the public interest to consider the exercise of its powers, to advance and spend public money, and to provide the means and impetus for such development. The Authority finds that in certain cases property within the Project Area would or may not be available for development without the specific financial aid to be sought, that the Redevelopment Plan will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the needs of the City as a whole, for the development of the Project Area by private enterprise, and that this Redevelopment Plan conforms to the general plan for the development of the City as a whole. It is the intention of the Governing Body, notwithstanding the enumeration of specific goals and objectives in the Redevelopment Plan, that the Authority shall have and enjoy with respect to the Project Area the full range of powers and duties conferred upon the Authority pursuant to the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) Act, the Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Act, municipal housing and redevelopment authority laws, and such other legal authority as the Authority may have or enjoy from time to time. The HRA Act authorizes the Authority to exercise all the powers relating to a housing and redevelopment authority granted under Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.001 to 469.047, or other law. Section 3. Background One of the reasons for establishing the Golden Hills redevelopment area was to provide a means for addressing issues and opportunities arising in connection with plans to upgrade old Trunk Highway 12 (now I-394) to interstate highway status. The City's first step was to enact a construction rnoratorium along the entire Highway 12 corridor from September 1979 to September 1980 while waiting for the final I-394 design plans. Following a period of background research and documentation, Golden Valley's 1982 comprehensive plan update identified part of the highway corridor as a "study area" due to "signs of deterioration within the area and potential for redevelopment in conjunction with anticipated upgrading of Highway 12 to I-394." Another moratorium from April 1984 to April 1985 allowed the HRA to establish the Golden Hills redevelopment area, Golden Hills Tax Increment Financing district, and related plan documents for both. The original Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan examined then-existing land use conditions, determined appropriate long-term land use categories, and established more specific redevelopment uses that corresponded to the land use categories. The original Golden Hills plan anticipated programming of redevelopment activities over a period of five to ten years. A real estate market decline in the late 1980s and circulation disruptions while the new interstate highway was under construction significantly slowed redevelopment. The need for improved north/south access into and through Golden Hills to accommodate and facilitate the full extent of redevelopment activity contemplated in the plan was the impetus for adding the Xenia Avenue Extension Area to the Project Area in 1999. The existence of excess railroad right-of-way located just north of the Golden Hills Central Area offered an opportunity to provide improved access to the redeveloped areas. The I-394 Corridor Study area was identified as susceptible to land use change due to its location along I-394, its proximity to other major freeways, and its direct access to Downtown Minneapolis. Based on Study recommendations the City Council, effective December 1, 2008, adopted the new I-394 Mixed Use Zoning District. The City Council also re-guided the Comprehensive Plan to incorporate this change in land use. As this area has significant development in place, the change in land use will only happen through redevelopment. Section 4. Guiding Principals As part of the I-394 Study process, guiding principals were adopted and approved. The principles are concise statements that establish the direction and intention of the study. They were adopted by the City Council in December 2005. These principles have been modified for the Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan to guide future redevelopment along the I-394 Corridor. 1. Enable the corridor to evolve toward a diverse mix of land uses, including residential as well as commercial and industrial. A mix of activities, uses, and densities will help sustain the corridor through changing economic cycles, consumer preferences, and housing trends. Mixed uses can create synergies and increase the level of pedestrian activity. Active uses (such as retail) at ground floor level can help to create activity after working hours. At the same time, the corridor should complement, not compete with, the Hwy 55/Winnetka district, the City's civic downtown. 2. Maximize integration rather than separation of land uses, where appropriate. Many land uses can benefit from increased integration with one another, including neighborhood- serving retail, multi-family and senior housing, offices, and low-impact services. Existing non-conforming land uses, such as auto-oriented commercial or industrial uses, can benefit from integration with newly permitted uses. Redevelopment is subject to design guidelines, as specified by the Zoning District. 3. Maintain the corridor as an employment center. Jobs within the corridor help maintain Golden Valley's jobs-housing balance while sustaining commercial enterprises. Fostering 'living wage' jobs should be a priority in redevelopment projects. 4. Improve the visual coherence and attractiveness of the corridor. Improvements in streetscapes, landscaped areas, open spaces, building aesthetics, and parking/service areas all contribute to a more unified and visually appealing environment, with an increased sense of identity. Buildings and other private improvements should make positive contributions to the district and the broader public realm, while public improvements should set the standard for private investment. 5. Improve connectivity for all modes. The development of I-394 and subsequent road realignments have resulted in a discontinuous and confusing circulation system. Improvements in east-west vehicular circulation and north-south pedestrian circulation are most needed; however, roadways should be designed to be attractive and safe for all modes af travel. Xenia Avenue, Golden Hills Drive, Turners Crossroad, Louisiana Avenue, and Laurel Avenue are to be preserved as primary arterial traffic corridors. 6. Foster neighborhood-serving retail and services. Commercial development should include a variety of small independent businesses and larger enterprises that serve City residents, supplementing and broadening the current mix of commercial uses. 7. Maintain or improve the functioning of intersections and highway interchanges. The functioning of the I-394 interchanges at Xenia and �ouisiana Aves, and other key intersections within the corridor, is critical to maintaining commercial viability and neighborhood quality of life. New development must be carefully planned, evaluated, and designed so that interchanges and intersections continue to function at an adequate level. 8. Foster sustainable development and work to establish a balance between urban and natural systems. Encourage the application of green building and infrastructure techniques. Examples include low-impact development that maintains the natural functions of the land, reduces storm water runoff, and fosters resource conservation and the use of renewable systems in new construction. 9. Implementing and facilitating all modes of transportation. In recent years, traffic congestion on Interstate 394 has become increasingly worse. New development along the corridor must emphasize the usage of mass transportation, car pooling, and non-motorized transportation. In addition, aspects of active living must be considered in developments. Section 5. Redevelopment Plan Components The I-394 Corridor Redevelopment Project Area is divided for planning purposes into nine sub-areas (Exhibit B), five from the Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan and four new ones. Included in the originalty-established boundaries are the West Area, the Central Area, the East Area, and the South Area. The Xenia Avenue Extension Area was added in 1999. The four new areas are the Florida Avenue, Louisiana East, Louisiana West and the Rhode Island Areas. The following pages describe each sub-area in turn, outlining land use characteristics and summarizing planned and completed redevelopment activities. A substantial amount of additional documentation on initial property conditions can be found in the original Golden Hills plan and in other records maintained by the HRA. Section 6. Methods of Financing The City and its Housing and Redevelopment Authority plan to use tax abatement, tax- increment financing, public improvement financing and/or the sale of bonds to support projects within the Redevelopment Area. New financial plans will be created as necessary and will be approved as part of a specific project. al � •w —� � Q N ��� Q•N � - C�' � � � � � � '� � � � Y I � � + XW n - s 0 �CR"� 'MM31 NnV1 " I - _ .� � � � � �J .� �H 3r,�i ,�' � o W �,o aq� �, � ln '// a �!t Q+.`la��SS!7+�;, 1�H`iNtll".1 :'�I � l � �ni� � 4 � v��' �� a � Qu^ 4 �nv �,,,;,�%'°�=' � __._ i. � 'h At.F�. �`.„ I � �3so� ,, ., ������� '�, 4 � �` on x3� I � � r Y� � N � � ,� nn s` .(��'�,p. yP�, 1lw 7q� /� O' � ii �S 3AV Q lm�i � 7i�iASNf17N -ar.y � � "�.y �wn �►� .OS '3nY � .. .._.. _ � —`.

Some private redevelopment has occurred. In 2001, the nursing home at the southeast corner of Circle Down and Turners Crossroad was converted to office use and in 2004, portions of the Golden Hills Shopping Center were demolished. The remaining portion of the shopping center is now fully occupied by restaurant uses. A vacant 4.5 acre site east of the shopping center is owned by MnDOT. It has been declared excess property and is available for redevelopment. Since the construction of Interstate 394, traffic and roadway alignment in this area has been an issue. In the future, traffic movement in the area could be evaluated to see if alternative roadway alignments could improve neighborhood circulation and access. Boundaries and Size Bounded on the west by Turners Crossroad, on the south by the city limits/I-394 fence line, on the east by the Highway 100/I-394 interchange, and on the north by the south boundary of a row of single family lots lining the south side of Circle Down.

The area is guided to have mixed use development. The area is directly adjacent to a single family residential neighborhood. Therefore, less intense land uses are desired for this location. Boundaries and Size Bounded on the west by Rhode Island Avenue South, on the south by Wayzata Boulevard, on the east by Pennsylvania Avenue South, and on the north by Laurel Avenue. Approximately 16.8 acres in size. Section 6. Land Use Traditionally, the I-394 Corridor has been comprised of primarily industrial, commercial, and office uses. The transition of the corridor to mixed uses requires that individual land uses work to complement one another and enhance the cohesiveness of the area. Standards have been developed for individual land uses to increase their ability to coexist among other land use designations within the corridor. 1. Housing Housing, in a variety of configurations (multi-story multifamily buildings, the upper floors of mixed-use buildings, attached single-family units such as townhouses) and including rental and owner-occupied (condominium or cooperative), will be incorporated in the Project Area. An emphasis on lifecycle housing will be emphasized in the corridor. Current Development: A limited amount of housing currently exists within the Amended Golden Hills Redevelopment Area. 2. Commercial retail and service uses The Project Area will include commercial retail and other service uses that are integrated into mixed or multi-use developments, gradually moving away from the current pattern of small free-standing convenience retail. A grocery store is also encouraged as a medium-sized freestanding retail facility that would meet neighborhood needs. Current Development: Commercial uses within the proposed I-394 Redevelopment Area currently include fast-food and casual dining restaurants, big-box retailers, a gas station, auto dealerships, and several independent retailers and service providers. 3. Business and professional office uses. Office uses often have significant traffic impacts. The I-394 Mixed Use Zoning District will typically require traffic analyses and subsequent traffic management plans to minimize traffic congestion. Current Development: Several large-scale office buildings exist in the Project Area. They are typically part of a Planned Unit Development (PUD). Professional offices also currently exist as components of existing business operations. 4. Open space. The development plan does not identify any sites for new public parks or plazas, but large developments would be encouraged to provide improved open space as part of their composition. Plazas and open space available to the public will be encouraged in private developments. Enhanced streetscape treatments along major streets will also enhance the area's appearance. Current Development: No public open space exists in the proposed I-394 Redevelopment Area. However, the Laurel Avenue Greenbelt exists to the north of the area, and serves as an important buffer between the Project Area, and the less intense land uses in the R-1 Residential Zoning District. 5. Existing industrial uses. No industrial uses are planned for the Project Area. Current Development: A number of large industrial facilities, automotive sales and service facilities are located in the Project Area. These uses could remain in the area indefinitely, but the City will consider redevelopment or reuse proposals for sites that may be ready for more intense and market-responsive uses. Section 7. Goals, Objectives, and Policies To achieve its mission of structured redevelopment, the Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan has instituted goals, objectives, and policies. These items, listed below, encourage cohesive planning and structured redevelopment within the Project Area. Goal 1 — Community Enhancement Objectives ■ Increased jobs and tax base. • Visually attractive development. ■ Recognizable features which reflect Golden Valley and enhance community identity. ■ Job and tax-based growth at environmentally sustainable levels. Policies The City will study planned land uses in the Project Area after all zoning changes are in place, to determine the need or desirability of area-wide plan amendments accommodating altered land use demand. Goal 2 — High Quality Development Objectives ■ High quality new developments that are visually attractive and respect their surroundings. • Development that meets environmental criteria set forth by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) and the United States Department of Energy. ■ Use of environmentally sustainable 'green building' practices when possible. ■ Development that meets criteria for active living. Policies The City will assure that its review processes, zoning, and building regulations are designed to promote desired development projects. The City will establish a list of qualifying criteria to serve as a selection standard for targeting Community Development Block Grant or other redevelopment funds. The City will review existing properties to consider their long term viability and/or options for alternative use. The City will consider various approaches and/or incentives to promote a Project Area beautification program. This program could include public and private components. Goal 3 — Redevelopment of Obsolete Properties Objectives ■ Redevelopment of parcels that are blighted, functionaily obsolete, economically unsustainable, or incompatible with adjacent uses. Policies The City will assure that new uses in the redevelopment area are compatible with existing development and the City's land use plan. The City may consider providing public subsidy to those redevelopment projects that serve a substantial public purpose, remove blight, or mitigate contamination. Goal 4 — Protection of the Environment Objectives ■ Preserve and enhance wetlands • Prevent and correct soil and wetland contamination ■ Preserve and cultivate arborous environments • Restore native vegetation where appropriate ■ Maintain existing natural features ■ Reduce light in the night sky • Co-locate higher density uses with commercial services to reduce the amount of auto travel and corresponding air pollution Policies The City will remain a leader in urban environmental protection by promoting area parks and open space, and setting development standards that uphold environmental guidelines. The City will continue to explore Sustainable Development research, for possible incorporation into future updates of this plan. Goal 5 — Maintain a Regional Framework Objectives ■ Implement Metropolitan Council growth and development policies when appropriate. ■ Take advantage of State and County funding. ■ Maintain a positive relationship with surrounding communities and governmental agencies. ■ Continue to support traffic management plans. Policies Accommodate mixed use developments and increase land use density where appropriate in accordance with the Metro Council's regional growth strategy. Monitor need for additional transit opportunities and encourage the development of local and regional transit opportunities within the Project Area. i-394 Corridor Redevelopment Plan Appendix:

B. Public Hearing- Ordinance#482 -Amending Section 11.70, Regarding Minimum Number of Off-Street Parking Spaces Prepared By Joe Hogeboom, City Planner Bryanna Vidden, Planning Intern Summary The Planning Commission asked that staff perform an analysis of Golden Valley's parking requirements as they relate to current development trends. The Planning Commission thought that, perhaps, Golden Valley's parking requirements were too strenuous for certain land uses. Following data collection and field research, the Planning Commission recommends changing parking space requirements for multiple family housing, community centers, financial institutions, trade and training schools, clubs and lodges. Changes are illustrated on the attached section of City Code.

Andre explained that it is a stat tory requirement to have a redevelop plan w e there is a redevelopment area. redevelopment plan is also re ' in order to create increment finance (TIF) dis icts. She added that it also , d by the Planning Commiss the HRA and City Coun I to all come together a gree on the intent for the redevelop nt area so the develo ment community u rstands the City's intent. Waldhauser stated tha redevelopm nt plan is `ccessor document to, or another piece of, the Comprehensi lan. An re sta `that a redevelopment plan is more of a visionary guide needed to do r velo m f, whereas the Comprehensive'Plan and Zoning Code are land use controls equire a higher level of specificity.

Continued Informal Public Hearing —Zoning Code Text Amendment— Amending Section 11.70 "Off-Street Parking and Loading Regulations" —Z�00-89 Applicant: City of Golden Valley Purpose: To consider amending the amount of parking required for certain uses. Vidden reminded'the Com;mission that this item was tabled at their January meeting in order to compare Golden Valley's parking ordinance with other cities, to observe various parking lots within Golden Valley and to discuss parking conditions at various parks throughout the City with the Director of Parks and Recreation. She explained that as a result of further study Staff is recommending that parking requirements at parks remain the same because the existing parking areas are adequate for everyday use. She discussed the parking conditions at retail locations, gas stations, fast food restaurants and banks and stated that staff is recommending a reduction of parking to 1 space per 300 square feet of gross floor area for banks, but the parking requirements for other locations appeared to be adequate. Minutes of the Gotden Valley Planning Commission March 26, 2012 Page 3 She stated that staff is also recommending that the parking requirements for community centers be changed to 1 space per 300 square feet of gross floor area, multiple family properties be reduced to 1.5 spaces per dwelling unit without requiring enclosed parking spaces, clubs/lodges be reduced to 1 space per 3.5 seats and trade and training schools be reduced to 1 space per 5 students. Waldhauser referred to the parking comparison chart and noted that compared to other cities Golden Valley is being aggressive about getting rid of unnecessary parking. Cera referred to gas station parking and asked Vidden if she researched the requirements regarding service stalls. Vidden explained that parking spots at the pumps are not considered service stalls so the recommendation is to keep the requirement at gas stations requiring 8 spaces plus 4 per service stalL Kisch said he likes that the parking ordinance establishes a minimum number of parking spaces rather than a maximum.

Informal Public Hearing —Zoning Code Text Amendment-Amending Section 11.7U "Off-Street Parking and Loading Regulations" — ZO00-89 Applicant: City of Golden Valley Purpose: To consider amending the amount of parking required for certain uses. Vidden stated that she studied the Gity's parking requirements in response to a request by the Planning Commission to determine if Golden Valley requires too much parking. She discussed her study which included comparisons with other cities and explained that staff is recommending to amend the parking regulations to require fewer parking spaces in nine of the use categories. Waldhauser asked for examples of which properties would be impacted by the proposed amendments. Vidden stated that her study shawed that Golden Valley is on par with other similar cities. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission January 23, 2012 Page 6 Waldhauser referred to the parking requirements at ball fields. She stated that ball fields are heavily used and there may be camplaints about there not being enough parking spaces. Kisch agreed and said currently the City tends to approach parking as requiring a minimum amount rather than a maximum amaunt. He referred to Walgreen's recent variance request for fewer parking spaces than required because they didn't feel they needed as many as the City Code required them to have. He said he likes parking language that puts more emphasis on a use and puts a cap on the number of spaces allowed rather than a minimum. Segelbaum asked if comments or complaints regarding parking could be examined. Hogeboom stated that comments or complaints are dealt with on a case-by-case basis and that there isn't a data base kept on file. Cera referred to the requirements for ball fields which states that 1 space is required per 6 seats. He questioned how "seats" are considered when there are no benches ar bleachers. He also questioned the requirements regarding gas stations and if a service stall or a space at the gas pump is counted in the parking totals. He questioned if the numbers proposed for gas stations were inadvertently raised instead of lowered. He suggested ball fields and gas statians be looked at again. Hogeboam said he would talk to the Park and Recreation Qepartment about the parking at ball fields in order to get a better idea of how many spaces to require. McCarty referred to the "adequate plan" language and asked haw that is defiined because it seems ambiguous. Schmidgall said he thinks this draft was a nice effort and is moving in the right direction. He added that the City almost always reduces the amount of parking required for developments when asked to do so. He said he would be inclined to recommend approval of these proposed changes and take another look at it in the future if needed. Waldhauser opened the public hearing. Stacy Hoschka, 6400 Golden Valley Road, referred to Meadawbraok School and stated that it is unique because it is also a community center. She questioned the number of parking spaces required far those two uses. She added that parking is a really big problem at Meadowbrook and there aren't nearly enough parking spaces. Hogeboom explained that the regular parking requirements in the Zoning Code don't apply at Meadowbrook because it is a PUD. Therefore, the PUD Permit would dictate the parking requirements. Seeing and hearing no one else wishing to comment, Waldhauser closed the pu�lic hearing. Waldhauser said she would like to have staff provide some examples of properties where adjustments could be made and examples of properties where there aren't enough Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission January 23, 2012 Page 7 parking spaces or where there are too many parking spaces. Hogeboam said that staff will assign specific businesses to Planning Commissioners to review over the next several weeks. Commissioners will be asked to look at whether or not there is adequate parking onsite, whether or not snow is stored in the parking lot and if parking lot usage increases or decreases at different times of the week. Staff will revisit parking regulations with the Planning Commission at a later meeting to see whether or not the Commission recommends making additional changes MQVED by Segelbaum, seconded by Kisch and mation carried unanimously to table the discussion regarding amending the Zoning Code Section 11.70 "Off-Street Parking and Loading Regulations" 5. orts on Meetings of the ousing and Redevelopm uthority, City Cou il, Board of Zoning A eals and other Meeti s Waldhauser repo on the Bottineau Transitway o house she attended an January 23 and reminded the mission that ere will a joint meeting with the City Council, Environmental Commission d Open pac nd RecreatiQn Commission on January 30. 6.

Cera, Secretary � �'r n� �� �- [ � � � � � �._`� €?� ��=�����,?� Exf�;���.��a� Planning 763-593-8095/763-593-8109 (fax) � � � Date: March 21, 2012 To: Golden Valley Planning Commission From: Bryanna Vidden, Planning Intern Subject: Continued Informal Public Hearing Amending City Code, Section 11.70: "Off-Street Parking and Loading" Background The Golden Valley Planning Commission requested for planning staff to examine the City's parking ordinances, in order to assess whether or not Golden Valley's City Code regarding off- street parking requirements is adequate for the parking conditions within the City. The concern is that Golden Valley is currently requiring too many parking spaces. At a previous Planning Commission meeting on January 23, 2012, staff presented a number of recommended changes to Golden Valley City Code, Section 11.70 "Off-Street Parking and Loading Regulations" that would place the City on par with other suburban communities in the Twin Cities metropolitan area. Commissioners suggested that changes to Section 11.70 should be revisited after examining the current parking conditions within the City. Since parking space requirements are based upon the type of land use in question, Commissioners noted a number of land uses which should have their parking requirements examined further. These uses included ball fields/other recreation, fast-food restaurants, retail stores, banking institutions, and service stations (motor fuel station). Process Through examining the parking conditions at locations throughout the City, Commissioners and staff took consideration of the total number of parking spaces, the number of spaces that where filled, or empty, if any spaces where being occupied by snow storage, and additional notes on how traffic flowed through the lot. To be used as examples, the parking conditions at the following locations were examined: Walgreens on Winnetka Avenue, SuperAmerica on Market Street, Perkins on Golden Valley Road, Truestone Financial on Country Club Drive, Wells Fargo Bank on Golden Valley Road, and Burger King on Wayzata Boulevard. After Planning Staff and Commissioners examined parking conditions at several locations throughout the City, some conclusions can be made. To further examine parking conditions at recreational facilities and parks throughout Golden Valley, Planning Staff met with Rick Jacobson, Director of Parks and Recreation. Most all of Golden Valley's parks and outdoor recreation faci(ities such as baH fields and parks have off- street parking lots, with only a few of the smallest neighborhood parks that have only on-street parking. After discussing the facilities individually, it has been determined that the number of available off-street parking spaces at ball fields and other outdoor recreational facilities throughout the City is adequate. While complaints have come up about park patrons parking on City streets during events such as little league baseball, or soccer tournaments, these are events which occur at minimal occasions each year. Thus, City Code should not be required to provide for these large events, but rather for the Code shall provide for everyday use of these facilities. Conclusion Based upon the fieldwork completed by the Commissioners and Staff, only one recommendation for a change has been made, which is in relation to the "Bank-Financial Service" land use type. Through a comparison study with other metro area suburbs, as well as an observational study of the parking conditions within Golden Vailey, recommended changes have been made to the City Code, Section 11.70 "Off-Street Parking and Loading Regulations" which is attached to this memorandum. Recommendations Staff has developed recommendations to reduce the minimum number of required spaces for five building use types. These changes are incorporated in the attached copy of Section 11.70: "Off-street Parking and Loading Regulations" of the Golden Valley City Code. The changes to the uses of"Multiple Family Residential", "Community Center", "Trade and Training School", and "Clubs/Lodges" have been adjusted according to the initial comparison research, while the change to the "Bank-Financial Service" description has been adjusted according to the observations made by members of the Planning Commission and City Planning Staff.
