III. AMENDMENTS TO THE GOLDEN VALLEY ZONING ORDINANCE A. HELIPORT Chairman Forster introduced this agenda item and asked Planner Alda Peikert for additional comments. Ms. Peikert stated that currently the Golden Va11ey Zoning Ordinance does not make provision for heliports. The proposed amendment will allow a heliport as a Conditional Use in Cortenercial, Business and Professional Offices, Light Industrial , Industrial and Institutional Zoning Districts. After considerable discussion, the Planning Commission reached a consensus on the following list of eleven items, not intended to be all inclusive, as guide- lines for considering specific Conditional Use Permit requests for heliports in Commercial , Business and Professional Offices, Light Indusrial, Industrial and Institutional Zoning Districts: 1 . Documentation of approvals required by other agencies including but not limited to the Federal Aviation Administration, Minnesota Department of Transportation and Metropolitan Airports Conanission. 2. Documentation of liability insurance secured by the applicant for the . heliport. - Planning Conmission Minutes of September 10, 1984 -2- � � 3. Provision of a safety barrier around helicopter operational areas. The barrier may take the form of a fence, wall , or a hedge. Any barrier used should be high enough to present a positive deterrant to persons inadver- tently entering an operational area and yet be low enough to be Aonhazardous to helicopter operations. See Minnesota Code of Agency Ru1es (14MCAR) •1 .3001 - 1 .3029 available upon request at the Planning Department. 4. Fire protection, dependent upon the size and number of helicopters to be accomnodated, the number of occupants, and the fuel load of the helicopter. (For details see F.A.A. Advisory Circular AC 150/5390-1B pp 44-e. ) 5. Height restrictions: Minimum altitude of 300 feet to be maintained above ground at the heliport site except for take off and landing. . 6. Landing and take off frequency and hours of operation. 7. Inclusion of maintenance facilities or fuel storage at the heliport site. 8. Limitations on number of users and on number of helicopters stored at the heliport site. 9. Proximity to residential areas. 10. Type of equipment and documentation of noise levels generated by equipment. • 11 . Placement of a time limit on the Conditional Use Permit providing an oppor- tunity for review of the operation and revision of conditions at the time of renewal after a specified trial period of time. It was moved by Comrnissioner Prazak, seconded by Commissioner Leppik and carried unanimously to reconmend City Council approval of the proposed amendment to the Golden Yalley Zoning Ordinance to provide for heliports as a Conditional Use in the Commercial , Business and Professional Offices, Light Industrial , Industrial and Institutional Zoning Districts and to further recomnend that the eleven items listed be added to the Zoning Ordinance Administrative Manual for review of specific applications for heliports. Commissioner McAleese suggested that the City Attorney be asked to review the list of considerations recortnoended for inclusion in the Administrative Manual and to research the legal questions of Federal and State preemption and private nuisance actions. B. MANUFACTURED HOUSING Chairman Forster introduced this agenda item and asked Planner Alda Peikert for additional comrnents.

The difficulties related to providing residential care are a combined result • of legislative changes, zoning and site location ordinances, Department of Human Services rules, stigmas and myths, and the ever present shortage of funds . In May of this year, Hennepin County released six Requests For Proposals, indicating an intent to establish six additional residential programs for the mentally ill to start up by November of this year. Clear direction has been given to potential vendors to seek locations outside of the alread}• impacted areas of Minneapolis. Legislation passed in this last session directs counties to establish a moritorium on new facilities in these areas to relieve over-concentration, and to implement a dispersal plan that will direct residential programs to be located in other parts of the County. We are aware that several of these potential vendors are actively looking for suitable sites in suburban communities. Perhaps you have already been contacted in this regard. The Northwest and West Hennepin Human Service Councils are prepared to be of assistance to suburban City Councils and Planning Commissions by providing information that would � be helpful in the process of working through some of the steps involved in locating a residential facility in a suburban community. • We offer am excellent manual that covers the legal snd regulatory aspects, provides summarized information on Human Services rules and good information on mental health clients and programs. At your request and convenience, a member of our group could come to a City Council or a Planning Commission meeting, highlight the manual and leave it with you. We could also provide you with some information about existing program �6.5Z� � Nu: wcst tlenncpin Human Servi � p, � • and resources and other information that wauld assist you in working with your ccmmunity. Even if you are not involved in a conditional use process right now, we believe that the materials would be useful for the future. Because of the new State laws and the timing of the Requests For Proposals, we would like to meet with you within the next 60 days. Please call Eileen Moran at 536-0327 to arrange for a convenient time. Sincerely, � .t.4.�,,.. `'I�-�,.�.,,-� Eileen Moran Executive Director • N.W.H.H.S.C. cc: Planning Commission Chair• G. william Forster City Manager . Bill Joyne� � EM/j d � • ( ��/ � July 31, 1984 T0: Bill Joynes, City Manager FROM:. Towhid Kazi , Planning Intern RE: Residential Facility for Chronically Mentally I11 In response to your inquiry on Residential Facility for Chronically Mentally I11 dated July 3, 1984, I have gathered some information on the subject which is summarized in the following: 1 . State Law (Ref: Sec. 245.812, Subdivision A pp2 line 7-22) dictates that licensed residential facilities serving seven (7) throuyh sixteen (16) per- sons are allowed in the multiple family residential district. Licensed resi- dential facilities serviny six or fewer mentally retarded or physically handicapped persons are allowed in sinyle family residential districts. A municipal zoniny authority may require a Conditional Use Permit in order to assure proper maintenance and operation of a facility. Copies of Statute and D.P.W. Rule 36 on state licensiny will be available at your request. • 2 . The Golden Valley Zoning Ordinance (Ref: Sec. 3A.11 Item 2) provides for residential facilities serving up to six (6) persons as a permitted use in Residential Districts. Residential facilities serving more than six persons may be permitted in the Residential District by majority vote of the City Council . Residential facilities are allowed in Multiple Uwelling and Institutional (I-3) Districts as a Conditional Use. (For further description see attached Golden Valley Zoning Ordinance.) The Golden Valley Zoning Ordinance provides for residential facilities for chronically mentally ill and will not require any ammendment. 3 . Zoning Code provisions are different in different communities. For a com- parison of other community aoniny codes with Golden Valley reyardiny resi- dential facilities for mentally ill , the attached chart miyht be helpful . Our Zoning Code is much more flexible on this matter compared with other neighboriny communities' zoning ordinances. 4. Most corrmiunities I have talked to had little or no experience with residen- tial facilities for chronically mentally ill . Wayzata and Bloomington are .the two suburban cor►miunities which have residential facilities for chroni- cally mentally ill . Most of the facilities are located in Minneapolis. This is the first time Hennepin County is trying to decentralize the resi- dential facilities for chronically mentally ill . Cor�nunity reaction to � Bill Joynes, City Manayer July 31, 1984 � • Paye 2 residential facilities for chronically mentally ill has been mixed. North West Residence, Inc, applied to the City of Brooklyn Center for the establishment of a facility which was denied by the City Council, Currently there is a lawsuit against the City of Brooklyn Center in the Supreme Court. Attached you will find a copy of the lawsuit. If we need any further information, Eileen Moran (NWHSC) would be an excellent source of information to whom questions may be addressed.

Procedure for establishment of a redevelopment district, as outlined in State Statute, is initiated by means of preparation of a redevelopment plan for HRA consideration. The HRA refers the redevelopment plan to the Planning Commission with a request for the written opinion of the Planning Co�rnission on the redeve- lopment plan. Following Planning Commission review and comment, the plan is referred to the City Council, which holds a public hearing and makes findings. " .Following City Council approval by resolution, the HRA has the authority to undertake redevelopment activities within the established redevelopment district. The purpose of the Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan is to es�ablish the Golden Hills Redevelopment District in accordance with State Statute requirements. A � redevelopment plan, as defined by State Statute, outlines redevelopment of the area to be covered by the redevelopment project. and indicates general land uses. The Draft Golden Hi11s Redevelopment Plan, as directed by Statute, designates general land uses for each redevelopment area within the proposed Golden Hills Redevelopment District. The Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan does not provide detailed concept plans for various areas of the proposed redevelopment district. Establishment of the District gives the HRA the authority to purchase property within the District boundaries for purposes of redevelopment. This authority is required for HRA conclusion of a �oint acquisition agreement with the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) for joint purchase of properties required in part for I-394 right-of-way and in part for proposed redevelopment. Funding of public costs of redevelopment pro3ects, including land acquisition, requires the additional step of establishing a tax increment financing district. Following establishment of the redevelopment district, the HRA would propose one or more tax increment financing districts within the redevelopment district. Establishment of a tax increment financing district involves HRA preparation of a tax increment financing plan and City Council approval of the tax increment financing plan. The City Council is required to hold a public hearing and pass a resolution making findings. � � Golden Valley Planning Commission Page Two September 19, 1984 The HRA on September 10, 1984 appointed a committee of HRA Co�nissioners, Dave Thompson and Larry Bakken, to return to the HRA at the October meeting with a recommendation for procedure for implementation of the Golden Hills Redevelopment Pro3ect. Property owners within the proposed District have already approached City staff with redevelopment suggestions for initial phases of the Golden Hills Redevelopment Project. Procedure is required for handling of these proposals and for development of nrore detailed plans for other areas. At this time, it is appropriate for the Planning Commission to comment on the outline for redevelopment and on the general land uses specified in the Draft Golden Hills Redevelopment Plan. At the same time, the Planning Commission may make recomnendations concerning procedure for development of detailed concept plans, including recommendations for Planning Commission participation in con- tinued planning for the Golden Hills Redevelopment Project.
