� that strict application of the Ordinance would deprive the applicant of
reasonable use of the land, that the variance is necessary for preservation of
a substantial property right of the petitioner, and that granting of a variance

IV. INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
APPLICANT: Pro-Kleen Auto Services
LOCATION: 1000 Boone Avenue North
REQUEST: Approval of a Conditional Use Permit to Allow an
Automobile Cleaning Service in an Industrial
Zoning District
Chairman Prazak introduced this agenda item and asked for a staff report.
Director Grimes reviewed the request for a Conditional Use permit and gave the
staff recommendation of approval with conditions.
Commissioner Lewis asked if the total 1,933 square feet would be used for
automobile cleaning, and Commissioner Leppik asked if there were limits on the
hours of operation.
Director Grimes stated that the total area would be used for automobile
. cleaning with perhaps a small area used for an office and for a bathroom. He
also stated that there are no limits on the hours of operation.
Commissioner Russell asked what uses were permitted in an Industrial District
other than office/warehouse.
Director Grimes said there are many uses but any automobile cleaning or repair
service would require a conditional use permit in any district.
The proponent was not present to answer questions from the Commissioners and .
Chairman Prazak opened the informal public hearing. Hearing and seeing no one,
the public hearing was closed.
The Commissioners had concerns as to noise and whether any painting would be
done at the location. Director Grimes stated the only noise would be from
vacuum cleaners and perhaps a buffer, and that there would be no painting other
than pinstriping of automobiles.
Commissioner McAleese asked if there was a problem having this type of business
located in the same place as offices and whether the tenants were notified.
Director Grimes stated that the owners of the building were notified and were
working with the proponent, but that the tenants were not notified by the City.
Commissioner Russell asked if the building was designed with the idea there
would be other uses in the building other than offices. Director Grimes stated
� yes.

� Chairman Prazak asked if it would be appropriate to specify that there would be
no body work or painting other than pinstriping permitted and staff indicated
it would be appropriate. -
Com�issioner McAleese, and other commissioners agreed, tended to feel that the
hearing should be continued in view of the fact that the proponent was not
present to answer questions of the Commissioners. He felt that staff should
make sure the proponent was aware of this and that the proponent should be sure
to attend the City Council hearing.
It was moved by Commissioner Russell , seconded by Commissioner McAleese and
carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of a Conditional Use
Permit for Pro-Kleen Auto Services to allow a car cleaning service in the Boone
Plaza building at 1000 Boone Avenue North based on findings of fact in the
staff inemo and subject to the following conditions:
1. The car cleaning operation be limited to the 1,933 square feet of space
designated on the site plan submitted by R. L. Johnson dated October 10,
1984.
2. The car cleaning operation be designated four parking spaces as shown on
the above mentioned site plan.
3. All car cleaning must be done inside the building.
� 4. Al1 cars to be cleaned shall be stored inside or within the four
designated parking spaces.
5. No body work or painting other than pinstriping will be permitted.
V. INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING - PRELIMINARY PLAT

REQUEST: Approval of Preliminary Plat of "Sumter Office Addition"
VI. INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING - REZONING
APPLICANT: International Development, Inc.
LOCATION: 7700 Wayzata Boulevard
REQUEST: Approval of Rezoning from Residential to Business and
Professional Offices Zoning District
Chairman Prazak introduced these agenda items and asked for staff's report.
City Planner Peikert passed out copies of a petition which staff had received
from property owners in the area opposing the request for rezoning from the
.

� Residential to Business and Professional Offices Zoning District. City Planner
Peikert reviewed the request for the preliminary plat and for the rezoning.
She also informed the Commissioners that the proponents had met with the
property owners in the area on May 29, 1985 at Brookview. -
City-Planner Peikert also explained that the present dead end water line on
Sumter Avenue would be looped during I-394 construction regardless of the
outcome of the rezoning request.
City Planner Peikert stated that the staff recommendation was to approve the
preliminary plat and rezoning request.
Chairman Prazak asked if this property had ever been developed. City Planner
Peikert stated that it had not, that it had been platted in approximately 1913
but never used and the sand and gravel had been removed from the site after
that time. She stated it had been platted for residential prior to the time
there was a zoning ordinance.
Chairman Prazak also asked if there had been attempts to use this property for
other purposes. City Planner Peikert stated that during the past four years
there had been proposals for uses ranging from an auto body shop to offices but
none for residential use.
Mr. Dick Nowlin was present to represent the proponent. Mr. Nowlin gave a
brief history of this parcel and indicated that for various reasons, such as
the substandard lots, limited access and highway noise, the existing resi-
� dential zoning was inappropriate for development of the property.
Mr. Nowlin introduced Mr. Greg Kopischke of Westwood Planning and Engineering
Company.
Mr. Kopischke explained the proposal to plat one area for I-394 right-of-way
and to use the remaining portion of the lot for development of an office
building. He explained that the building would be constructed on the lower
portion of the lot to lessen the impact on the residential neighborhood.
Regarding the rezoning request, Mr. Kopischke stated that they felt that this
was an appropriate transition and buffer type of use between the proposed I-394
highway construction and the residential area to the north. He also stated
that with rezoning to business and professional offices the use would be
limited to offi.ce use and not end up with retail or some type of fast-food
operation.
Mr. Kopischke indicated that the site plan they had prepared was based on the
ordinance standards for setbacks, parking, etc. He described the plan for a
three-story structure with the roof height approximately the same as the
two-story home to the north, and that the architecture of the building was
somewhat residential in nature and would blend in with the neighborhood.

� With regard to traffic, Mr. Kopischke stated a traffic analysis had indicated
an additional 30 to 33 trips in and out of the area during peak morning and
afternoon traffic periods with an average daily traffic count of approximately
172 cars which is relatively low in volume. He indicated they had oriented the
access to the property toward the frontage road and that most of the traffic
would go toward the I-394 frontage road and only a small amount of traffic
would be directed into the residential neighborhood on Sumter and Rhode Island
Avenues South.
Commissioner Russell asked what the square footage of the building would be and
Mr. Kopischke stated it would contain 14,000 square feet on the two upper
floors and the lower level would be for parking spaces.
Commissioner Leppik wanted to know how many offices the proponent anticipated
being located in the building and whether the parking would be primarily for
persons working in the building. Mr. Kopischke stated the number of offices
would depend on the types of businesses using the space. He indicated that the
total parking spaces would be 56 with 16 to 19 spaces under the building, and
that there would probably be no restrictions on who parks there.
Commissioner Lewis asked who owned the property. Mr. Kopischke explained that
Mr. Dan Burrill owned the property and the proponent had a contract to purchase
the property from him.
� Mr. Burrill was questioned by Commissioners as to whether he had tried to sell
the property for residential use, either for single or multiple family
development. Mr. Burrill said he had not. Mr. Dick Nowlin added that there
were no restrictions on selling the property and that it could have been sold
for residential use but hadn't. Mr. Burrill stated he had owned the property
for ten years and has had it on the market for nine years, and that the
previous owner had also tried to sell the property during the ten years he
owned it.
Commissioner Lewisaasked the proponent what site preparation is required before
construction is commenced. Mr. Kopischke stated that the soil is sand and
gravel in nature and was sufficient for the use proposed but that some minor
grading would be necessary.
Chairman Prazak asked which portion would need no grading and was told by Mr.
Kopischke the essentially the entire northerly 25 feet would not be graded and
therefore the present vegetation would not be affected.
Commissioner Kapsner wanted to know how tall and what kind of vegetation exist-
ed on the property now. Mr. Kopischke said it was a mixture of trees and
shrubs and most of it would remain there.
Commissioner Russell asked what the length of time would be for construction of
the project. Mr. Kopischke stated approximately a year or less.
Chairman Prazak opened the informal public hearing.

• Mr. Lyle Larsen, 830 Rhode Island Avenue South, stated that he had been born in
Golden Valley and when he bought his lot and built his home in this neighborhood
it was residential . He felt that if it were rezoned and developed
commercially, eventually commercial development would creep further into the
residential neighborhood. He also felt that the proponent could have 6een more
responsive to the neighborhood.
Mr. Brown, 611 Sumter Avenue South, objected to the additional traffic more
commercial buildings would bring in.
Ms. Dorraine Bailey, 950 Rhode Island Avenue South, said she also represented
her parents who live in the house immediately adjacent to the north of the
subject property. She .stated that the trees were not on the subject property
but rather on her parents property. Ms. Bailey also had concerns with the
increase in traffic.
Mr. Craig Stillwell , 1033 Sumter Avenue South, had concerns in regard to
traffic and storm water drain off.
Mr. Albin Winkels, 914 Sumter Avenue South, had concerns with traffic during
� I-394 construction and wants the property to remain residential . He also felt
the proponents could have been more responsive to the neighborhood.
Mrs. Jennie Mattson, 732 Rhode Island Avenue South, felt it should remain
� residential and that there would be an increase in traffic.
Mr. Dick Nowlin discussed the legal standards for the rezoning of property. He
pointed out that the Courts have said property may be rezoned if there had been
a mistake in the original zoning or if the land uses in the area have changed.
Mr. Nowlin said that this is a classic example of an �rea where the land uses
in the area have changed.
Commissioner Leppik asked the proponent to address the storm water issue. Mr.
Greg Kopischke responded stating the runoff would come out the east access
drive toward the frontage road.
Commissioner McAleese wanted to know what the City could do to assure the
drainage would not be a problem if the property were rezoned. City Planner
Peikert stated that the Building Board of Review and the Building Department
would review the site plan and work with the Engineering Department to be sure
the drainage would not be a problem.
Commissioner McAleese also asked what the City requirements were in regard to
landscaping. City Planner Peikert said there were no specific requirements for
landscaping between Residential Zoning and Business and Professional Offices
Zoning Districts but there were landscape standards which would require a
certain� number of over-story trees based on square footage of the building, but
that it would not necessarily provide a screen.

� Chairman Prazak asked what the distance was from the proposed building to the
residence to the north. Mr. Kopischke stated it was about 70 feet.
Mr. Kopischke stated he would like to clarify the traffic volume. According to
calculations, there would be approximately 30-33 cars moving through the area
during peak periods which would be from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m, and 5:00 p.m.
to 6:00 p.m. or about one car every two minutes which provides a significant
time break between cars. There would be about 105-110 cars going through the
area during the 9 hour daytime period or 12 cars every hour.
Commissioner Leppik asked if the proponent had designated the kind and the size
of the trees to be used directly north of the building and if they would cover
the top of the building. Mr. Kopischke stated they would probably be three to
five inches in diameter, and depending on their placement, they could screen a
significant portion of the building.
Mr. Dick Nowlin volunteered to come before the Planning Commission with more
detailed landscape plans at a later date though they would not be required to
do this. Commissioner Leppik felt it would be beneficial for them to schedule
another meeting with the residents regarding more detailed landscape and
building plans. -
Mr. Don Winter, 915 Sumter Avenue South, asked if it would be possible to put
in a cul-de-sac on Sumter Avenue South to eliminate additional traffic.
• Chairman Prazak stated that the City would be very reluctant to do so. City
Planner indicated that a cul-de-sac would require a large area, approximately a
60 foot radius or 12� diameter.
The informal public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Lewis felt the property should be developed and that it would be
beneficial for the proponent and residents to have another meeting at a time
convenient to both parties to review the site plans, landscaping plans, etc.
Commissioner Leppik stated she felt that after 70 years of being zoned
residential and not developed, it would be extremely unlikely that it would be
developed as a single family, duplex or even multi-family residence. She felt
that with commercial property immediately adjacent to the east, a major highway
going in to the south, no one would be able to sell the property for
residential development. She also stated the best possible buffering for the
residents to the north is a very low use business office which does not
generate a lot of traffic. She indicated is was a difficult decision but she
was convinced it would never be developed as residential property and supported
the rezoning.
Commissioner Russell indicated she was very uncomfortable when zoning is
changed on property adjacent to residential property but if the resident were
sincere and would like the Planning Commission to look at this whole area in
terms of potentially re-examining the land use for this area and the zoning,
they would be much more comfortable with a very attractive small office
• building. If the area were rezoned to Business and Professional Offices, it
� ' Planning Commission Minutes
June 10, 1985
Page 8
awould be possible for individual land owners and not the neighbors to sell and
at that point in time more or less be at the mercy of what happens. With this
proposal the residents know exactly what they will have on this property, a
very attractive building which has a residential flare and precludes anything
more coming in there. She stated that if she were a resident, she would be
more comfortable with this building with the screening and the buffering from
Highway 12 because the height of the building will dispense some of the noise
they would eventually have. Commissioner Russell felt uncomfortable changing
the zoning but the inevitability is there that this area will go a direction
which the residents would be more uncomfortable with.
Commissioner Leppik stated the residents should talk again with the proponents
to work out a landscape plan that would be satisfactory to them.
Commissioner McAleese indicated he would vote in favor of the rezoning but felt
uncomfortable as it was in conflict with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. He
too felt the neighbors should get involved to ensure the landscaping would
prevent some of the problems.
Commissioner Kapsner agreed with what had been said and felt it was unrealistic
to think this property would be developed residentially. He stated it was not
the perfect solution but as close to residential as possible and would not
detract from the neighborhood. He felt the proponent had done an excellent job
in designing the structure to blend in with the neighborhood. Though it was a
difficult decision, he felt there was no other choice but to rezone the
. property.
Chairman Prazak felt that since the property has not been developed residen-
tially and the developer had made an effort to accommodate the neighborhood, he
would support the proponent.
It was moved by Commissioner McAleese, seconded by Commissioner Leppik and
carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of the Preliminary Plat
of "Sumter Office Addition" subject to the following:
1. Minnesota Department of Transportation confirmation of conformance of
Outlot A to I-394 right-of-way requirements prior to approval of the
Final Plat.
2. One acre minimum lot area of Lot 1 Block 1 on the Final Plat.
It was moved by Commissioner McAleese, seconded by Commissioner Lewis and
carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of the rezoning of
property located at 7700 Wayzata Boulevard from the Residential to the Business
and Professional Offices Zoning District subject to the prior approval of the
Preliminary Plat of "Sumter Office Addition".

FROM: Alda Peikert, City Planner
SUBJECT: Set Date for Informal Public Hearing - Preliminary Design Plan
for PUD #49, Valley Village 2nd Addition
The proponent, Mr. John B. Goodman, is Partner-in-Charge of Elmo Park
Apartment Homes, which owns Valley Village Apartments located at 600 Lilac
Drive and owns the adjacent vacant parcel to the east of the Valley Village
Apartments. Mr. Goodman in late November 1984 appeared before the City
Planning Commission with a request for replatting of the property to
increase the size of the vacant parcel preparatory to development, but did
not specify development plans at that time. Mr. Goodman now requests
approval of the Preliminary Design Plan for PUD #49, Valley Village 2nd
Addition, which proposes construction of 40 residential condominium units
on the vacant lot.
The site is approximately 9.4 acres in area, with floodplain and a drainage
easement over approximately the easterly two thirds of the lot. The
. proposed site plan for PUD #49, Valley Village 2nd Addition, arranges the
40 condominium units in five buildings of eight units each on the higher
westerly portion of the lot overlooking the ponding area on the easterly
portion of the site. Frontage and access to the site are off of the Olson
Memorial Highway (Highway 55) frontage road to the east of Highway 100.
Staff suggest that the Planning Commission set an informal public hearing
date of July 8, 1985 for consideration of the Preliminary Design Plan for
PUD #49, Valley Village 2nd Addition. �

T0: Members of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
FRdM: Mark W. Grimes, Director of Planning and Development
SUBJECT: Planning Commission Workshop - Topics for June 24 Meeting
At the May 20 Planning Commission meeting, the Commission held a work/study
session to determine a procedure for updating the Golden Valley Comprehensive
Plan. The result of the meeting was the designation of two committees. The
Land Use Committee's assignment is to review in detail a number of "focus"
areas and make recommendations regarding their future use or reuse. The
following five areas were designated by the Planning Commission to be the five
priority focus areas:
1. Golden Valley Lutheran College
2. Golden Valley Health Center
3. Olson School
4. Highway 100/Golden Valley Road Area
5. Duluth/Douglas Streets Area
The second committee is the Housing Committee. Its assignment is to review,
� update and improve the current housing plan. The Planning Commission believes
that housing should be a major emphasis in order to upgrade and diversify the
housing stock.
Since the May 20 meeting, the City Council/HRA has met to discuss their prior-
ities for development. At a HRA workshop held on June 17, the City Council
asked that the Planning Commission make a recommendation to them on two issues
that are current. First is the future of the Golden Valley Lutheran College
site. The City Council/HRA would like the Planning Commission to review this
area and make a recommendation regarding its potential reuse. The City
Council/HRA believes that new proposals for this 30 acres may be coming before
the Planning' Commission and City Council soon due to the closing of the college
and the unlikely possibility that a similar institutional owner would buy the
property.
Secondly, the City Council/HRA would like the Planning Commission to determine
where in the City more intense types of development may occur and under what
circumstances. The City Council anticipates more proposals for higher
intensity development than is c�rrently permitted in the Zoning Code (eg.
Turner Development). The City Council wants to know the following: 1) If
higher intensity development should be allowed, 2) Where it should be allowed
to go, and 3) What circumstances should be considered when permitting intense
development.

In order to assist the City Council/HRA and to get started on the Comprehensive
Plan update, Alda Peikert and I are suggesting a change from the plan for the
update talked about at the May 20 meeting. We believe that the two projects
assigned by the City Council/HRA to the Planning Commission are closely linked
to the Plan update and that the two questions may be combined when considering
each focus area. The staff would like to see the Planning Commission delay the
start of the work on the Housing Plan update for a month or two and concentrate
on looking at the Golden Valley Lutheran College and Golden llalley Health Care
Complex. These two properties are both being discussed by their current owners
for a change and perhaps more intense development.
The staff would recommend that the Planning Commission divide into two commit-
tees to review these two sites. Hopefully, the Planning Commission could come
up with some sort of recommendation on land use alternatives and standards by
late summer.
The staff is suggesting that when reviewing the two sites for development or
redevelopment potential , the following issues should be considered:
1. Density and intensity of proposed use and its effect on the
area.
2. Traffic and circulation conditions.
3. Height of the proposed buildings.
� 4. Potential ranges of uses.
5. Public safety (police, fire and emergency medical ).
6. Buffering and landscaping.
7. Neighborhood involvement in planning process.
8. Property owner involvement in planning process.
The staff is looking for direction on how to properly and most effectively
involve the public and the owners of the property under consideration.
Possible ideas include neighborhood meetings and neighborhood committees; also,
how and when do we involve the owners of the subject property in the consider-
ation.
It should again be noted that at the May 20 meeting, the Planning Commission
agreed that the most effective way to review areas is to develop performance
standards for each area rather than a specific land use category. I believe
that this approach is still appropriate and should be used by the Planning
Commission. This approach allows the most flexibility in determining final
land uses.
