SET DATE FOR INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT � APPLICANT: Judy DuPaul LOCATION: 2900 Lee Avenue North REQUEST: Conditional Use Permit to Allow for a Small Pet Grooming Business as a Home Occupation in the Single-Family Residential Zoning District This item was introduced by Chair Prazak and reviewed by Director Grimes.

III. INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING - PRELIMINARY DESIGN PLAN FOR AMENDMENT TO PUD #46, CALVARY LUTHERAN CHURCH APPLICANT: Calvary Lutheran Church LOCATION: 7520 Golden Valley Road REQUEST: Amendment to PUD #46 to Allow for a Drop-By Child Care Center (The Children's Ark) in a Planned Unit Development Chair Prazak introduced this agenda item and asked City Planner Wilkinson for a review of the staff report and recommendation. Planner Wilkinson stated that � the use was compatible with other uses on the property and that there was a need for additional child care in Golden Valley. She indicated that staff felt it would not create any additional traffic problems. . � Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission March 14, 1988 Page 2 � Chair Prazak asked what flexibility the church would have to expand the child care service additional hours and if there were any restrictions. Planner Wilkinson stated there would be no restrictions on expansion but any change would have to be acceptable to the State, City Building Inspector and City Fire Marshal . Commissioner McAleese asked how staff arrived at the conclusion that it would not add to traffic congestion. Planner Wilkinson stated that because the hours would be 9:00 A.M. to 3:40 P.M. it would not add to peak hour traffic. Commissioner Russell asked how many children they could care for and Commissioner Lewis asked why they would be open only three days per week. Ms. Ann McConnell , representing Calvary Lutheran Church, was present. She stated that their State license would allow them to care for 20 chiJ dren at one time, seven under the age of 18 months, and 13 age 18 months to five years. She also indicated that the reasoning for only operating three days a week was to see if it would work out financially and that the program would be reevaluated in September. Chair Prazak opened the informal public hearing. Hearing and seeing no one, the informal public hearing was closed. . There was discussion by several Commissioners regarding limiting the number of children that can be cared for and the hours of operation. After further discussion, it was the consensus the Commissioners that because of the need for additional day care in Golden Valley, no restrictions should be placed on the � amendment as any changes would have to be approved by the State and the City Building Inspector and Fire Marshal . It was moved by Commissioner Russell , seconded by Commissioner Kapsner, and motion carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of the Amendment to PUD #46, Calvary Lutheran Church, to allow for a drop-by child care center at 7520 Golden Valley Road. IV. INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING - AMENDMENT TO THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN - HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO BllSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICES - 1700, 1710, 1724 AND 1750 DOUGLAS DRIVE V. INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING - REZONING APPLICANT: PACE Laboratories LOCATION: 1700 Douglas Drive REQUEST: Rezoning from Open Development ta the Business and Professional Offices Zoning District to Al1ow for an Addition to the PACE Laboratories Building and Parking Area � . 1 Minutes of the Golden Va11ey Planning Commission March 14, 1988 Page 3 � These two agenda items were intro�uced by Chair Prazak. Director Grimes reviewed the staff's reports on both items. He stated that changing the land use designat�on on the Comprehensive Land Use Map would be consistent w'rth the area and that rezoning the 1700 Douglas Drive parcel from the Open Development to the Business and Professional Offices Zoning District would not have a negative effect on the surrounding neighborhood. . Director Grimes also noted that this parcel is better suited for Business and Professional Offices Zoning than Residential . He stated that the addition PACE was proposing for this property would include parking which would exeeed the required amount of parking and, according to PACE, alleviate the parking problems they have had in the past. Commissioner McAleese questioned the fact that the Land Use Plan Map designation for this area was being changed from Residential to Business and Profiessional Offices when there is a need for more low and moderate income housing in the City. Director Grimes explained that the cost of using this area for residential development would be prohibitive because of the buildings already located in the area and that putting a smali apartment building on the 1700 DougTas Drive parcel would not be feasible. � Mr. Steve Vanderboom, President of PACE L�aboratories, and Mr. John Pope, architect, were present. Mr. Pope explained the proposed addition to PACE Laboratories and indicated that building materials and architecture would be the same as the present building. Commissioner Russell asked about the drainage and the back elevations of the building. Mr. Pope said the back would be the same as the front and that there would be a landscaped berm to separate the parking from the residential area to the rear of the property. Chair Prazak opened the informal public hearing. Mrs. Culver, 1510 West Constance Drive, had concerns about additional employees and the parking. Mr. Bob Olberg, 1511 West Constance Drive, was concerned with drainage of the property and whether there were any limitations on the height of the building. Mr. Vanderboom said they presently have 75 parking stalls for 100 employees and after the addition is built, there will be ll2 parking stalls for up to 170 � employees so there will be an improvement in the parking situation. Director Grimes stated that a drainage plan for the property would have to be approved before a building permit is issued. He also noted that three stories is the limit for the height of an office building, but that it is unlikely another floor would be added because additional parking would be required. � The informal public hearing was closed. Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission March 14, 1988 Page 4 � Chair Prazak indicated he felt this was an appropriate change to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. Commissioner Russell stated it was her opinion that the PACE addition would be less obtrusive than an apartment building on this site. Commissioner McAleese said he was troubled with the "piecemeal fashion" of changes to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map but in this case agreed with the staff that it would be the best use of this land. It was moved by Commissioner Russell , seconded by Commissioner Leppik and motion carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of an Amendment to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map changing the land use designation of the property at 1700, 1710, 1724 and 1750 Douglas Drive from High Density Residential to the Business and Professional Offices Zoning District. It was moved by Commissioner Kapsner, seconded by Commissioner Lewis and motion carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of the rezoning of 1700 Douglas Drive from the Open Development Zoning District to the Business and Professional Offices Zoning District. VI . REVIEW OF 1987 PLANNING COMMISSION ACTIONS Planning Commissioner reviewed results of Planning Commission action on various � items during 1987. UII. REPORT ON HRA, BZA AND CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS Commissioner Kapsner provided the Planning Commission with a report on the March 1, 1988 meeting of the City Council , and a report on the March 8, 1988 meeting of the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) was given by Commissioner McAleese. Chair Prazak stated he did not attend the March 8, 1988 meeting of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) . VIII. ELECTION OF OFFICERS The following were reelected officers for the period April 1, 1988 through March 31, 1989: Commissioner Prazak as Chairman, Commissioner McAleese as Vice Chairman and Commissioner McCracken-Hunt as Secretary. IX. I-394 CORRIDOR MORATORIUM AND ZONING Planning Commissioners provided staff with input concerning approaches to the zoning controls to be instituted during the I-394 corridor development moratorium. The meeting was adjourned at 9:00 P.M. � , March 23, 1988 . � T0: Golden Valley Planning Commission FROM: Alda Wilkinson, City Planner SUBJECT: Set Date for Informal Public Hearing - Conditional Use Permit for Food Processing in the Industrial Zoning District - 2300 Nevada Avenue North Mui Li Wan, Inc. requests a Conditional Use Permit to allow the production of eggrolls and steamed rice in the building previously occupied by United Beef located at 2300 Nevada Avenue North. The building proposed for the food processing operation is in the Industrial Zoning District. Food processing involving °cooking, heating, smoking, soaking or marinating° is a conditional use in both the Light Industrial and Industrial Zoning Districts. The applicant specifically requests a permit for "cooking, heating, smoking, soaking and marinating". Staff suggests that the Planning Commission set an informal public hearing date of April 11, 1988 for consideration of a Conditional Use Permit for Mui Li Wan, Inc. for food processing at 2300 Nevada Avenue North in the Industrial Zoning District. � � ` L � � March 23, 1988 T0; Golden Valley Planning Commission . FROM: Alda Wilkinson, City Planner SUBJECT: Set Dates for Informal Public Hearings - Rezoning from Residential (Single Family) to Two Family Residential (R-2) Zoning District and Preliminary Plat - 120 Meadow Lane North , Mr. Marc Teren requests rezoning and preliminary plat approval to allow construc- tion and zero lot line division of a twin home at 120 Meadow Lane. The proposal is for addition of a second unit attached to the existing house on the property _ and for zero lot line division to provide for separate ownership of the two units. The proposal requires rezoning from the Residential (Single Family) to the Two Family Residential (R-2) Zoning District and platting utilizing the new provision for a minor subdivision for a double bungalow included in the recently revised City Subdivision Regulations. Staff suggests that the Planning Commission set April 11, 1988 as the date for public hearings on the proposed rezoning and preliminary plat. � � � March 23, 1988 � T0: Golden Valley Planning Commission FROM: Mark W. Grimes, Director of Planning and Development SUBJECT: Conditional Use Permit to Al1ow Dog and Cat Grooming as a Home Occupation at 2900 Lee Avenue North - Judy DuPaul , Applicant In 1985 the City added a home occupation section to Chapter 3A: Residential Zoning District (attached) . Section 3A.13(1) outlines thirteen requirements - that must be met for a home occupation to operate in Golden Valley. Section 3A.13(2) also specifically allows eight home occupations if they meet the thirteen requirements for operating a home occupation. Section 3A.13(3) specifically prohibits ten home occupations under any circumstances. Section 3A.13(4) states that other proposed home occupations that are not specifically allowed or prohibited and meet the thirteen requirements for operation would first need to obtain a conditional use permit (CUP). Judy DuPaul is the first person to apply under the CUP arrangement for permitting a home occupation. She lives at the home at 2900 Lee Avenue North and would like to groom only dogs and cats in her home. Currently she is attending a school to become a groomer and will graduate in June of 1988. She would like to begin grooming on a part-time basis after her graduation. � Ms. DuPaul has received a copy of the thirteen home occupation requirements, and she believes that she meets those requirements. She has agreed to maintain the pet grooming studio within all the guidelines outlined in Section 3A.13(1) including: 1) hours of operation limited to 9 A.M. to 5 P.M. , 2) the limit of eight client trips per day and no more than two clients at any one time, 3) the provision of all client parking in the driveway, 4) the operation of the grooming within the home occupying less than 20% of the gross floor area of the home, 5) no display af signs or symbols of the home occupation, and 6) sales limited to those incidental to the home occupatian such as brushes and shampoo. The Planning Commission and City Council must also review this application in respect to the factors found in Chapter 20: Conditional Uses. Ten factors are listed in this chapter for consideration by the Planning Commission and City Council . The staff's findings on these ten factors are as follows: 1. Demonstrated Need for Proposed Use - There are many dogs and cats in the area that need to be groomed. 2. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan - The area is designated low-density residential . A part-time home occupation does not alter the overall character of the area. 3. Effect Upon Property Ualues of Area - If the proposed grooming studio is � operated as per the thirteen requirements, the effect on the neighborhood will be insignificant. Golden Valley Planning Commission March 23, 1988 � Page Z 4. Effect on Traffic - A maximum of sixteen trips (eight clients per day) to the house between the hours of 9 A.M. and 5 P.M. will have an . insignificant impact on the streets in the area. 5. Effect on Population and Density in Area - The proposed use will not increase population. 6. Increase in Noise Levels - The noise levels should not be increased. 7. Increase in Odors - The proposed use should not increase odors. 8. Increase in Flies, Rats or Other Animal Vermin - The proposed use should not cause an increase in any of these pests. 9. Visual Appearance - The home will not have a change in visual appearance from the street. 10. Other Effects on Public Health, Safety or Welfare - The proposed use will not have a negative effect on the health, safety or welfare of the area. The staff recommends approval of the CUP for dog and cat grooming with the following conditions: � 1. No more than three dogs or cats may be on the premises for grooming at any one time. 2. No dogs or cats that have been groomed shall be kept overnight. � (Otherwise the business would become a kennel which is not a permitted home occupation. ) 3. The yard or a portion of the yard shall be fenced for dogs or cats to go outside. 4. No more than three dogs shall be outside at any one time. 5. The requirements found in Chapter 3A, Section 3A.13(1) shall be met and followed to allow the pet grooming occupation to operate. Attachments 1. Site Location Map 2.

Grimes, Director of Planning and Development SUBJECT: Amendment to Zoning Code to Allow Child Care Facilities by Conditional Use Permit in the Commercial Zoning District and the Business and Professional Offices Zoning District; and Amendment to Code to Allow Child Care Facilities of All Types by Conditional Use Permit in the Light Industrial Zoning District and the Industrial Zoning District The staff would like the Planning Commission to consider amendments to the Zoning Code that would allow child care facilities by Conditional Use Permit (CUP) in Commercial and Business and Professional Offices Zoning Districts. Currently, child care facilities are not permitted by right or as a CUP in either the Commercial or Business and Professional Offices Zoning District. Within the two Industrial Zoning Districts, day care facilities are allowed with a CUP if the day care serves only the dependents of persons employed on the same premises. Child care facilities are only permitted with a CUP in the I-1, I-2, I-3 and I-4 Institutional Zoning Sub-Districts. Day care facilities serving 12 or fewer children are considered a permitted use in the Residential Zoning � District Day care facilities serving 12 or fewer children are also permitted in the Multiple Zoning District with a CUP. There are several child care faciTities in Golden Valley other than home child care. However, these child care facilities are located in churches that are zoned Institutional . If a child care facility would like to operate in a Commercial or Industrial District to serve the general public, the Zoning Code would not allow it to be opened. The staff believes that there is a need for more child care facilities in Golden Valley due partially to its very large employment base. There are about 30,D00 persons working in Golden Valley. There is also a need for the spectrum of child care facilities ranging from home day care, non-profit child care centers in churches, for-profit child care facilities and child care to serve a particular employee group. In order to allow the spectrum of child care to operate in Golden Valley and to encourage its development, the Zoning Code should be changed to allow child care facilities by CUP in the Commercial , Business and Professional Offices, Light Industrial and Industrial Zoning Districts. . If the Planning Commission agrees that these amendments are appropriate, the � staff will prepare amendments that will allow child care facilities with a CUP in the Commercial , Business and Professional Offices, Light Industrial and Industrial Zoning Districts. The staff suggests that they be permitted only with a CUP in order that each facility may be examined individually. Some locations may not be acceptable for child care facilities due to adjacent uses, � accessibility, noise, need or other reasons. Golden Valley Planning Commission March 22, 1988 Page 2 � It should also be pointed out that child care facilities must rE�ceive a license from the State of Minnesota before they may operate. The State has strict standards regarding child care operation including the amount of inside and outside space needed for each child, teacher qualifications, fire, health and building code compliance and teacher-to-child ratios. Generally, the license has already been reviewed by the State before a CUP is considered by the Planning Commission. This gives the City assurance that the site for the facility meets State standards for child care facilities before the CUP is issued. � � March 23, 1988 � T0: Golden Valley Planning Commission FROM: Alda Wilkinson, City Planner SUBJECT: Amendment to the Zoning Code - Provision for Dish Antennas At the request of the Planning Commission, Planning staff has reviewed treat- ment of dish antennas under the City of Golden Valley Zoning Code. City staff previously researched provision for dish antennas in December 1984 and concluded at that time that existing Zoning Code provisions adequately addressed dish antennas. Under the current Zoning Code dish antennas are treated as accessory structures subject to the setback and height restrictions applicable to struc- tures within each individual zoning district. Dish antennas usage has changed somewhat since 1984. Residential use of small microwave dish antennas has lost popularity. According to the December 1987 Zoning News published by the American Planning Association, private home use of the larger satellite dish antennas is also decreasing, but commercial use of satellite dish antennas is increasing. Concern is with the visual appearance of satellite dish antennas, which range in size from 10 to 18 feet in diameter. Dish antennas may be either ground � mounted, requiring a concrete base, or roof mounted. Roof mounted dish antennas may be screened from view from the ground. Screening of ground mounted antennas is possible only to the extent that screening does not interfere with reception. Staff feels that the question for consideration by the Planning Commission is whether or not to make satellite dish antennas a conditional use. Treatment as a conditional use would allow the Planning Commission to address screening and location for minimal negative visual impact on a case by case basis. It would be difficult to write screening requirements to cover all cases without indivi- dual review due to the fact that screening may interfere with dish antenna usage. In an individual case, it may be necessary to compromise to achieve the best screening possible without interfering with reception. This type of subjective determination is appropriate to the conditional use classification. Planning staff suggests the following provisions for consideration: l. Dish antennas under one meter in diameter shall be a permitted use in all zoning districts (Residential , Multiple Dwelling, Business and Professional Offices, Commercial , Light Industrial , Industrial and Institutional ) . 2. Dish antennas over one meter in diameter shall be a conditional use in all zoning districts. a. Dish antennas shall be subject to the setback and height restrictions of each individual zoning district. In the Residential Zoning District, � a satellite dish antenna would be regulated as an accessory structure, which must be to the rear of the hause, must have at least ten feet of Golden Valley Planning Commission March 23, 1988 Page 2 � separation from the house, and must be a minimum of five feet from property lines. In other zoning districts an accessory structure is subject to the same setback requirements as any other building or structure. b. Dish antennas shall not be allowed in front yards. Dish antennas shall be allowed only in side and rear yards. This provision is already taken care of in the Residential Zoning District provisions for accessory structures but is necessary in other districts. c. Roof mounted dish antennas shall be screened from view from the ground. d. Ground mounted dish antennas shall be screened from adjacent properties to the greatest extent possible without interfering with dish reception. � �
