T0: Golden Valley P7anning Commission
FROM: Alda Wilkinson, City Planner
SUBJECT: Request for Waiver of the Platting Ordinance - 1605 and 1625
Zealand Avenue North
Mr. and Mrs. Roland E. Menk, owners of the single-family residence located at
1625 Zealand Avenue North, and James A. and Jil N. Carlson, owners of the
adjacent undeveloped lot at 1605 Zealand Avenue North, request a waiver of the
City Platting Ordinance to allow adjustment of the lot line separating their
two properties.
The proposed adjustment involves transfer of a triangular portion of the front
yard of 1605 Zealand Avenue North to 1625 Zealand Avenue North in exchange for
transfer of an approximately equal triangular portion of the rear yard of 1625
Zealand Avenue North to 1605 Zealand Avenue North. The resulting lot line is a
straight line which appears more symmetrical in proportion to other lot lines
of the subject and surrounding parcels. It is the understanding of Planning
staff that the transfer was precipitated by the discovery that the Menk house
� at 1625 Zealand Avenue North does not have the required setback from the south
side lot line shared with the Carlson property at 1605 Zealand, and further
that the driveway for the Menk residence encroaches slightly onto the adjacent
Carlson property.
The proposed lot line adjustment improves the properties involved by bringing
the Menk house into conformance with the side setback requirement and be
establishing a new lot line which appears to create lots of more symmetrical
proportions. The lot line adjustment has minimal effect on the sizes of the
two lots, and both lots substantially exceed the minimum area requirement of
10,000 square feet both before and after the transfer.
Based on findings that the proposed lot line adjustment corrects a nonconform-
ing side yard setback at 1625 Zealand Avenue North and further that the lot
line adjustment improves lot proportions, Planning staff suggests that the
Planning Commission recommend City Council approval of the request for a waiver
of the Platting Ordinance to allow adjustment of the lot line between the
properties at 1605 and 1625 Zealand Avenue North.

Subjecta Centenniei Town Meet3ng
We discu�sed the topics below at our October 16 meeting.
Fublicitva Judy Rein reported that the Boy and Girl Scouts
wauld b� unable to distribute fiyera for the Town Meeting.
Apparently the�e gr-oups require a longer lead time than we
gave them to org,aniae for such tasks.
I discussed the Post tabloid. All comments on the idea were
pasitive. Dave expressed his thanks for the work done by the
Planning Commission and staff.
Jean�e Andre presented a plan (attached) for the staging of
public relations.
As a substitute for the distribut3on of flyers by the
� SCOUtSs the City will send information about the Town
Meeting in a generai mailing to all residents.
The Mayor will be asked to write personal letters of
invitation to civic organizations and a select group of
community residents.
In addition to sending news releasea to the local media, the
City will also inform Good Morning America and the Today
Show.
�udaet= Jea�ne Andre presented a draft budget tattached)
for the meetfng.
Format of Town Meetinaa I pres�nted our ab�ections to the
planned format and suggested that there should be only one
break into smali groups. Although this appro�ch present�d
some problems for D�ve Thompson �he has to re-th3nk council
member assignments) � the idea was accepted. The�e will be
ane �mall group session.
Small groups will be lfmited to 12 participants. Dav�
Thompson a�d Jeanne Andre will corral additional
' facilitator�s. Assume a minimum of twenty.
� Recention: Jeanne Andre presented a refreshments budget.

.
tAttached) After a ahort diacussion� the idea of a wine and
� cheese r�cept3on was �hot down. The food menu will be
something like Byerly's Menu 2 on the draft budget.
, Th� idea of �erving a cake fn the �h�pe of Goiden Vall�y was
d3scussed. Th� organiaing comm3ttee liked the concept.
Je�nne Andre will inv�stigate costs.
Dave Thompson or Jeanne Andre w311 talk with the d3rec�or of

Subjecta �evision of 201a Review Schedule
Hecause we hope for public input at the November 20 Town
Meeting, the Planning Commission°s 2010 pro�ect is
effectively stalled until after that date. It seems
unreal3stic to e�pect much progress during the month of
December. Accordingly, I suggest we suspend the formal
continuation of the 2010 process until our first meeting in
January. I believe the Town Meeting w311 keep us occupied
throughout October and November. I also wish to propose two
interim projects.
Citv Code
My firat proposal relates to making city documents more
readable �3tem J4 of our 2010 liat) . I wish to remove this
item from our 2010 agenda for immediate consideration.
� The recently approved city budget contains #20,400 for
recodificetion of the Golden Vaily City Code. The purpose of
recadifying is to simplif y the structure of the code. I
believe, however, that recodification also offers a perfect
opportunity fo� simplifying the language of the cod�. I hope
you agree. I request that the Planning Commission formally
recommend to the Council implementation of a plain language
policy for the code revision.
I suggest the following actionsa
i. Give me a thumbs up or thumbs down at our October 27
m�eting.
2. Set a date f or Planning Commission discussion of a
plain language policy.
Even if you do not bel3eve the Planning Commission should
act on thi� matter, I would be 3nterested in your ideas
regarding the scope of a plain language policy� and the ways
such a policy might be impiemented. Also, do you believe the
Flanning Commi�aion should have any role in revision of the
aoning code, etc, portions of the code?

Rlannino Procesa"�
. �ecause of our 2Q10 project and my participation on the Town
Meeting Committee! I have had the opportunity to do a great
deal of thinkfng about planning. This has led to a chronic
headache, and a vague feeling of unease. I desperately need
answers to the following questionse
1. What is the role of the Planning Commission as we
perceive it?
�
2. What is the Council's view of the Commission?
�. Are we fulfilling our role?
4. What is the purpose of the comprehensive pian?
5. Is the plan fulfilling ita purpose?
6. What structural or procedural changes� if any,
should be made to imp�ove our p�rformance?
I would like to address these questions in a study meeting.
Do yau agree?
