client trips per day nor serve more than two clients at a time."
2. It should be noted under definitions that Day Care is not included in

FROM: Alda Peikert, City Planner
SUBJECT: Set Date for Informal Public Hearing - Amendment to Conditional
Use Permit No. 82-9 to Allow Expansion of Golden Ualley Tire -
600 Decatur Avenue North
Mr. David L. Almich and Mr. James A. Pauley of Time Master, Inc. request an
amendment to Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 82-9 to allow expansion of the
Golden Valley Tire Center located at 600 Decatur AveRUe North. The original
Conditional Use Permit for a tire service and automobile repair service in a
Commercial Zoning District was approved by the City Council on December 21,
1982. One of the conditions in the approved Conditional Use Permit stipu-
lates use of no more than four service bays. The applicants request approval
for six service bays and submit documentation of adequate parking to accommo-
date the proposed expanded operation.
Staff suggests that the Planning Commission set an informal public hearing
• date of December 9, 1985 for consideration of the requested amendment to
Conditional Use Permit No. 82-9 for Golden Valley Tire. The applicants
confirmed to staff that the suggested December 9, 1985 informal public
hearing date is acceptable to them.

FROM: Alda Peikert, City Planner
SUBJECT: Informal Public Hearing - Preliminary Design Plan for PUD #50,
Nortronics
Nortronics Company, Inc. , located at 8101 Tenth Avenue North, requests approval
of the Preliminary Design Plan of PUD #50, Nortronics, which proposes zero lot
line division of the Nortronics building to allow sale of a portion of the
building. As described in the attached letter from Nortronics dated October 11,
1985, the proposal is to sell a two-story building addition constructed in 1979
by separate address as 8121 Tenth Avenue North. Reduced Nortronics operations
would be consolidated into the original Nortronics building located at 8101
Tenth Avenue North.
The proposal includes adequate parking attached to each proposed separate
ownership portion of the building. Parking provisions are described in an
attached memorandum provided by an agent for the applicant, Nortronics. The
parking lot on the building site south of Tenth Avenue North will be sold with
the 8121 building and provides four more parking stalls than the 107 spaces
required by City Ordinance based on current uses within the building. A
separate parking lot located to the north of Tenth Avenue North will remain
� with the continuing Nortronics operation at 8101 Tenth Avenue North and pro-
vides 80 additional parking spaces over the 116 required based on current
building use. The separate parking lot on the north side of Tenth Avenue North
does not have curb separation from landscaped area and requires the addition of
curb and the addition of gutter as required for drainage.
The separate parking lot should be included in the PUD and in the plat, and
this adjustment should be made in the General Plan of Development, the second
phase of the PUD approval process. In addition, the City requires dedication
of 10 foot utility easements adjacent to all street right-of-way lines. These
utility easements also should be included on the plat with the General Plan of
Development.
The PUD proposal includes three existing variances from setback requirements.
The Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) on March 13, 1979 granted a variance of the
35 foot setback required from street right-of-way line to parking for the
parking lot fronting on Lewis Road. The variance was granted based on hardship
created by a site entirely surrounded by street. Additional variances existing
on site and included in the proposal are a distance of approximately 18 feet
from the southeast corner of the 8101 Tenth Avenue building to the Lewis Road
street right-of-way and a distance of approximately 18 feet from pavement to
Tenth Avenue street right-of-way on the separate parking lot parcel . Staff
recommends approval of the existing setback variances considering the fact that
the building is already in place and considering the fact that the separate
parking lot serves the facility across the street.

City staff foresees no problems with separation of the building as requested.
A joint maintenance agreement is a standard requirement in the case of zero lot
line division of a building and is required with the General Plan of Development.
The City Fire Marshal reports that there is separation wall as required and
that the two buildings have separate sprinkler systems. Based on City utility
billing records, it appears that there is separate water service to each build-
ing. There are two water meters for 8101 Tenth Avenue North and two separate
fire lines. If there is necessity for an agreement on division of water� billings
or for private easements for private water connections crossing property in
other ownership, copies of documents should be provided to the City with the
General Plan of Development. Separate sanitary sewer connections serve the two
buildings, but one private sanitary sewer connection line to 8101 Tenth Avenue
crosses the property designated as 8121 Tenth Avenue North. The General Plan
of Development should include a copy of a private easement agreement to handle
the line crossing adjacent property.
Staff suggests that the Planning Commission recommend City Council approval of
the Preliminary Design Plan for PUD #50, Nortronics, which proposes zero lot
line division of the Nortronics building located at 8101 Tenth Avenue North,
subject to the following conditions:
l. The separate parking lot parcel located to the north of Tenth Avenue North
� shall be included in the PUD and in the plat in the General Plan of Develop-
ment application.
2. Ten foot utility easements adjacent to all street right-of-way lines shall
be dedicated on the plat.
3. Office use of the building designated as 8121 Tenth Avenue North shall not
be expanded beyond the 17,859 square feet currently in office use.
4. Parking area and landscaped area on the separate parking lot parcel north
of Tenth Avenue North shall be separated by curb, and gutter shall be
installed as required for drainage.
5. A joint maintenance agreement and water and sanitary sewer connection
easements and agreements as required shall be submitted with the General
Plan of Development application.
6. A landscape plan shall be submitted with the General Plan of Development
application.
7. The PUD shall comply with all requirements and recommendations of the City
Engineer, City Building Inspector and City Fire Marshal .

T0: Golden Valley Planning Commission
RE: Building and Property Referred To As 8121 10th Avenue
North
Marketing conditions has made it necessary for us to reduce our
facilities requirements in Golden Valley.
As one part of this reduction program we are offering for sale
the two-story facility which was built in 1979, which we refer
to as 8121 Tenth Avenue North. We will consolidate our opera-
tions into our original building, which is just to the east at
8101 Tenth Avenue North.
• As the attached preliminary plat shows, we would establish a
new property line essentially on the west side of the west wall
of the original 8101 Tenth Avenue building. The 8121 two-story
structure would claim the entire parking lot oR the south side
of that structure. Nortronics parking would continue using
only the parking lot across Tenth Avenue to the north.
Present use of the 9121 building is a combination of office and
light manufacturing. Eventual use will depend upon who might
buy the the structure, but it is being offered for sale as
. potential office and manufacturing space.
If there are further questions, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
��.:..4 . d�

Re: Nortronics Building ��
8101 & 8121 lOth Ave. No.
Golden Yalley, Minnesota
From: Sherman P. Malkerson
Agent for Nortronics
Proposal: As Per Attached exhibitsf Nortronics would like
to sell the 8121 building and retain the 8101
building.
Data to Consider:
a
1. ) At present the Nortronics facility consists
of a total of 81 �531 sq. ft. with 7.12 acres
. land a1loWing for a total of 307 improved car
stalls.
2. ) Nortronics wishes to sell the 8121 building
which consists of a total of 35,724 sq. ft.
of which one upper level of 17�859 sq. ft. is
all office and one lower level of 17,865 sq.
ft. is industrial. This sale would include
2.3 acres of land and 111 car stalls. Given
the current use car stalls needed basec3 on one
stall for each 250 sq. ft. of office and 500
sq. ft. for industrial, only 106 stalls are
required.
3. ) Upon sale of the 8121 building� the 8101 build-
ing would be retained by Nortronics. The 8101
building has 1.85 acres plus the 2.97 acres

The 8101 building has 45,807 sq. ft. of which
no more than 12,000 sq. ft. is office. The
required car stalls would be 116.

so, What steps would have to be taken to gain
� approval .
