Planning Commission Minutes - November 26, 1984 -2-
�
Commissioner Leppik inquired if rezoning of the portion of the easterly lot
which is currently zoned as Open Development would be required at the time of
future development. Ms. Peikert stated that any new development on that lot
will require rezoning.
Acting Chairman Prazak then opened the informal public hearing and recognized
Mr. Ross Fefercorn, Omni-Shelter, Inc. representing the proponent, Mr. John B.
Goodman.
Acting Chairman Prazak asked Mr. Fefercorn to explain briefly the reason for
replatting. Mr. Fefercorn informed the Planning Cormnission that the proposed
replatting will increase buildable area of the vacant parcel . He also stated
that Omni-Shelter, Inc. is currently involved in market research on the possi-
bility of either housing or office space development on the vacant parcel . Mr.
Fefercorn also stated that there are no plans for any additional development on
the apartment site.
Commissioner Leppik inquired about the proponent's letter requesting storm sewer
assessment credit for floodplain area on the proposed preliminary plat of Valley
Village 2nd Addition. Mr. Fefercorn stated that the timing of letter is purely
coincidental and is unrelated to the replatting. He also recognized that the
assessment may be ad�usted only if the floodplain area is dedicated to the City.
. Acting Chairman Prazak opened the informal public hearing for public input.
Ms. Selma Schwartz, 5201 Olson Memorial Highway, asked if the eastern portion of
Lot 2 goes up to the White House Restaurant parking lot. Mr. Fefercorn stated
that the easterly portion of the property line does not go as far as the White
House Restaurant parking lot.
Ms. Karen Lydon, 540 Claverleaf Drive, inquired if it is common procedure to
have a public hearing without a development proposal . Ms. Peikert stated that a
development proposal is not required for platting. Ms. Peikert also stated that
a future development proposal would likely require a public hearing.
Hearing no one further, Acting Chairman Prazak closed the informal public
hearing.
It was moved by Commissioner McAleese, seconded by Commissioner Leppik and
carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of the preliminary plat
of Valley Village 2nd Addition.

APPLICANT: Otto F. Dischinger
LOCATION: 8330 Plymouth Avenue North

Planning Commission Minutes - November 26, 1984 -3-
�
Acting Chairman P razak introduced this agenda item and asked staff to add any
further comments. City Planner Alda Peikert reviewed the staff report.
Acting Chairman Prazak inquired about the proposed lot size compared to the size
of the surrounding lots: Ms. Peikert st�ted that the lot sizes are comparable
with those of the surrounding lots.
Cort�nissioner McCracken-Hunt asked if the existing house meets the setback
requirements. Ms. Peikert stated that the existing house does not meet the set-
back requirement from the street but does meet the setback from side lot lines
created by the proposed plat.
Acting Ghairman Prazak recognized Mr. Dennis Gonyea, Gonyea Investment Co., and
asked for a brief overview of the proposed plat.
Mr. Gonyea informed the Planning Commission that the proposed lot sizes are com-
parable to those across Plymouth Avenue and do not require any variances.
Mr. Gonyea stated that the park dedication fee is extremely high compared to
those of other cities. He also stated that potential poor soils conditions of
the property may reduce the value and that for comparable lots in other cities
the land dedication fees is around $300 to $350 per lot.
• At the request of the Acting Chairman, Ms. Peikert explained that the proposed
property was never platted before and that as such no dedication of land or fee
payment was made to the City previously. Ms. Peikert suggested that the propo-
nent write a letter to the Planning Department requesting a waiver of that por-
tion of the park dedication fee that the proponent fees is justifiable and also
providing any available information regarding decrease in property value due to
poor soils conditions on the property. °
Mr. Gonyea then asked if the land dedication fee includes the value of the lot
with the house. Ms. Peikert stated that the land dedication fee is based on the
market value of the undeveloped land excluding the house structure.
Acting Chairman Prazak stated that any questions regarding the appraised value
of the undeveloped land should be directed to Mr. Robert Hanscom, Hennepin
County Assessor's Office. Ms. Peikert again suggested that Mr. Gonyea write a
letter to the Planning Department regarding the park dedication fee, which
letter would be in included in the staff report to the City Council along with
the Planning Corrnnission recommendation. Ms. Peikert also informed The Planning
Commission and the proponent that the Planning Department is in the process of
preparing a park dedication policy.
Acting Chairman Prazak asked staff if the City required 10� of the undeveloped
land as land dedication in other instances. Ms. Peikert gave an example of a
recently approved Planned Unit Development (PUD) in which case a park dedication
fee. equivalent to 10� of the market value of the undeveloped land was required.

Planning Commission Minutes - November 26, 1984 -4-
�
Acting Chairman Prazak then opened the informal public hearing for public input.
Mr. Warren J. Boyd, 1310 Castle Court, asked about the drainage to the western
part of the plat and its impact on the neighboring lot. Ms. Peikert explained
that the City Engineer has requested further information on the grading and
drainage along the westerly border of the plat. Acting Chairman Prazak reaf-
firmed that additional information about the drainage plan, as requested by the
City Engineer, will be required before the City Council makes its final decision
to ensure that planning for the westerly lot does not adversely affect the
neighboring lots.
Commissioner Singer commented that there could be 1ega1 recourse by the property
owners if the drainage of the proposed plat caused problems to the surrounding
lots.
Hearing No one further, Acting Chairman closed the informal public hearing.
Commissioner Singer described the proposed plat as a positive move creating small
sized lots and thereby providing space for more dwelling units.
Commissioner Leppik recomnended that the Planning Commission include the park
dedication fee in their recommendation and leave it to the proponent to challenge
the amount. Ms. Peikert explained that if a request for partial waiver of the
• park dedication fee is received from the proponent, the staff could review the
request in light of the proposed land dedication policy and make a recommen-
dation to the City Council. She also said that the proposed park dedication fee
is in accordance with the Golden Valley Subdivision Ordinance.
It was �ved by Commissioner Leppik, seconded by Commissioner McCracken-Hunt and
carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of the Preliminary Plat
of Dischinger Addition subject to the following conditions:
1 . Submittal prior to City Council consideration of the preliminary plat of
a grading and drainage plan approved by the City Engineer.
2. Payment prior to final plat approval by the City Council of land dedication
fees in the amount of $4,000.00.

• Acting Chairman Prazak introduced this agenda item and asked staff to add any
further comments. City Planner Alda Peikert reviewed the staff report.
Planning Commission Minutes - November 26, 1984 -5-
•
Acting Chairman Prazak then- recognized Mr. David Cremons of Stolpestad, Brown
and Smith representing Country Club Surgical Associates Limited Partnership and
AMI Ambulatory Centers, Inc. Mr. Cremons gave a brief overview of the proposed
change of use at the site and informed the Planning Commission that there is
potential for sale of the building to an insurance company which will occupy 60°�
of the space for their office use and the remaining 40� of the space will be for
medical office use. Three of the current tenants will rt�ve at the end of the
year to make space available for the insurance company.
Commissioner Leppik asked about the sale of the building to the insurance com-
pany and how it affects the relationship with AMI. Mr. Cremons replied that
AMI has consented to the proposed amendment. He also stated that AMI will con-
tinue to operate the Surgical Center which is on a separate lot and has no
problem with the office building next door.
Commissioner Leppik asked about the change in orvnership of the PUD. Ms. Peikert
explained that the change in ownership does not in any way change the conditions
of the PUD permit.
Acting Chairman Prazak then reviewed the traffic analysis done by Mr.
James A. Benshoof, Benshoof and Associates, indicating that the proposed change
in land use would reduce the total volume of traffic generated by the office
building and surgical center.
• Commissioner Leppik asked why the space at the medical building could not be
leased out. Mr. Cremons replied that the use of the building specifically for
medical offices limited the pool of potential tenants.
Acting Chairman Prazak then opened the informal public hearing. Hearing no one,
Acting Chairman Prazak closed the informal public hearing.
It was moved by Commissioner McAleese, seconded by Commissioner Schmidt and
carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of the Preliminary Design
Plan for and Amendment to PUD #39, West Metro Surgical Center, to allow the
addition of office uses in the medical clinic building at 6681 Country Club
D ri ve.

T0: Golden Valley Planning Commission
• FROM: Alda Peikert, City Planner
DATE: December 5, 1984
RE: Set Date for Informal Public Hearing - Preliminary Design Plan for
Amendment to PUD #42, North Lilac Drive Addition
The Golden Va11ey City Council on February 7, 1984 approved the General Plan of
Development and on March 22, 1984 authorized signature of a PUD Permit for PUD
#42, North Lilac Drive Addition, which proposes division of the former Holiday
Motor Hotel property located at 812 Lilac Drive North into three parcels, one of
which will remain in restaurant/motel use and the other two of which will be
converted to office condominium use. The Golden Valley Planning Commission held
an informal public hearing on the Preliminary Design Plan for PUD #42 and recom-
mended conditional approval on July 11, 1983.
Subsequent to issuance of the PUD permit to the original proponent, Coto
Corporation, a change in ownership has occurred. Current �rner of property
included in the original PUD proposal is Mr. Charles S. McCrossan, who provided
financing to the previous owner, Coto Corporation. Mr. McCrossan does not own,
and has been unsuecessful in efforts to obtain, a parcel purchased from the
railroad by one of the Coto Corporation partners for dedication for trail pur-
poses in compliance with a condition of the PUD approval .
• The current proponent, Mr. McCrossan, requests an amendment to PUD #42, North
Lilac Drive Addition, to exclude from the PUD the former railroad property now
in separate ownership and to provide for a cash payment in lieu of land for
future trail acquisition. Mr. McCrossan confirms that he intends to complete
the PUD as approved with the exception of the trail dedication.
Staff suggests that the Planning Commission set an informal public hearing date
of January 14, 1984 for consideration of the amendment requested by Mr. Charles
McCrossan to PUD #42, North Lilac Drive Addition.

T0: Golden Valley Planning Corronission
� FROM: Alda Peikert, City Planner
DATE: December 5, 1984
RE: Set Date for Informal Public Hearing - Preliminary Design Plan for PUD
#47, Valley Square Plaza
PUD �47, Valley Square Plaza, proposes construction of an 81,U00 square foot
office building on a site approximately 4.8 acres in area located northeast of
the intersection of Highway 55, and Rhode Island Avenue North. The project site
is Area D of the Va11ey Square Redevelopment Project.
The developer of the pro3ect is United Properties, but United Properties is not
yet owner of the site and therefore may not make application for the PUD.
Section 15:14 Paragraph 11 of the PUD Ordinance provides for initiation of a PUD
by the City in cases where the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) intends
to acquire land by eminent domain. The City HRA currently owns several of the
parcels involved and has purchase agreements on remaining parcels. The City may
apply for PUD Preliminary Design Plan and General Plan of Development approvals,
but the City Council may not approve the General Plan of Development until the
- land is in HRA or developer ownership.
The Golden Valley Planning Corianission on January 23, 1984 reviewed proposed
� Preliminary Plans for Area D of Valley Square in response to a request from the
HRA for co�nent and input prior to inclusion of Preliminary Plans in the
Development with United Properties.
Staff suggests that the Planning Commission set an informal public hearing date
of January 14, 1985 for consideration of the Preliminary Design Plan for PUD
#47, Va11ey Square Plaza.

RE: Informal Public Hearing - Conditional Use Permit - 900 Pennsylvania �-
Avenue South - Automobile Repair and Reconditioning Operation in an
Industrial Zoning District
The proponent, Jim Lupient Oldsmobile Company, requests approval of a
Conditional Use Permit for an automobile repair and reconditioning operation at
900 Pennsylvania Avenue South in an Industrial Zoning District. Automobile
repair and reconditioning are listed as conditional uses in the Industrial Zoning
District section of the City Zoning Code. .
The proposed site is the Heilicher Building located at 7600 Wayzata Boulevard,
formerly occupied by Pickwick Distributing. Jim Lupient proposes to lease por-
tions of the building with street access on Pennsylvania Avenue South and an
address of 900 Pennsylvania Avenue South. Total leased space is approximately
45,500 square feet, with approximately 30,000 square feet in automobile service
area. An attached letter from Mr. Jim Lupient describes the types of automobile
repair and reconditioning work contemplated. The floor plan submitted with the
application indicates areas for new car "get ready" including rust proofing, for
used car repair and reconditioning, and for heavy duty rt�chanical repair.
• As an extension of other Jim Lupient Oldsmobile Company operations in the imme-
diate vicinity, parking requirements for the proposed automobile repair and
reconditioning operation are flexible. The Zoning Code requires four parking
spaces for each service bay plus one for every three employees for a service
station. According to an attached letter provided by Mr. Lupient, the proposed
operation will have 18 service stalls and 12 to 18 mechanics requiring a total
of 78 spaces. Parking spaces allocated to Jim Lupient Oldsmobile Company use as
indicated on the Site Plan are a total of 74 spaces. However, cars are delivered
f rom other Jim Lupient Oldsmobile locations rather than dropped off by custo-
mers. Therefore, Jim Lupient Oldsmobile Company has the ability to control the
number of cars on site.
In addition to parking for the automobile servicing area, the City Zoning Code
requires one parking space for every 500 square feet in storage area. With
30,000 square feet of parts storage, the proposed operation would require 60
additional parking spaces. However, Mr. Lupient indicates in his letter that
there will be only three employees associated with this portion of the
operation.
It is the opinion of staff that the 74 parking spaces allocated to Jim Lupient
Oldsmobile Company use are sufficient if properly handled. The concern of staff
is that the site will be come a congested parking lot for Jim Lupient Oldsmobile
Company inventory as have other Jim Lupient 0ldsmobile sites in the City of
Golden Valley. Therefore, staff recommends approval conditions limiting parking
• to the 74 spaces indicated on the Site Plan.
The Site Plan indicates that there are existing nonconforming setbacks to
landscaping and parking. No new construction of either building or parking area
• is proposed. Therefore, the existing nonconformities may remain. Staff does
not reco�nend �imposing landscaped setback requirements as a condition of
Conditional Use Permit approval in this type of case where the proponent is a
tenant rather than an owner of the property.
Section 20.03 of the City Zoning Ordinance provides that in considering a
Conditional Use Permit application, the Planning Cortanission shall make findings
and recor�anendations to the City Council on ten items, which need not be given
equal wei�ht in the consideration. Examination of the proposed automobile
repair and reconditioning operation in view of each of the ten items follows:
1. Demonstrated need for the proposed use.
The proposed operation is an extension of existing Jim Lupient Oldsmobile
Company operations within the City of Golden Valley. Ongoing congestion on
existing Jim Lupient Oldsmobile sites attests to the need for additional
space for this use.
2. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan of the City.
The Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map in the Land Use element of the adopted
City of Golden Valley Comprehensive Plan designates long term Industrial use
of the sub3ect property. The proposed use is appropriate to the existing
Industrial zoning, which conforms to the Comprehensive Plan designation.
• 3. Effect upon property values in the neighboring area.
The site fronts on Highway 12 to the south. Adjacent properties to the
north and across Pennsylvania Avenue South to the east are Industrial .
Properties to the west across Rhode Island Avenue South from the Heilicher
Building are zoned Residential (Single Family�, but the property fronting on
Highway 12 is undeveloped.
The proposed automobile repair and reconditioning operation would not alter
the exterior appearance of the Heilicher Building and would not have an
adversE impact on surrounding property values.
4. Effect of any anticipated traffic generation upon the current traffic flow
and congestion in the area.
Access and parking are adequate to accommodate the proposed automobile
repair and reconditioning operation, and the proposed use would not affect
current traffic flow or congestion in the area.
5. Effect of any increases in population and density upon surrounding land
uses.
There would be no increases in population or density.
6. Increase in noise levels to be caused by the proposed use.
• The automobile repair and reconditioning operation is proposed for a
separate northerly portion of the building separated from the remainder of
the building and located an adequate distance from surrounding buildings and
properties. Any noise generated by the operation would not impact either on
• surrounding properties or on other uses within the same building.
7. Any odors, dust, smoke, gas or vibration to be caused by the proposed use.
As indicated in an attached letter submitted by Mr. Lupient, the proposed
operation would not include painting. The operation would not cause
problems associated with odors, dust, smoke, gas or vibration.
8. Any increase in flies, rats, or other animals or vermin in the area to be
caused by the proposed use.
The proposed use would not result in any increase in flies, rats or other
animals or vermin in the area.
9. Visual appearance of .any proposed structure or use.
Jim Lupient Oldsmobile Company occupancy of a portion of the Heilicher
Building would not alter the visual appearance of the building and site.
10. Any other effect upon the general public health, safety, and welfare of the
City and its residents.
Staff foresees no other effects on the general public health, safety and
wel fare.
• Review of the proposed automobile repair and reconditioning operation in view of
the ten factors for examination of a Conditional Use Permit request indicates a
favorable recommendation. Staff suggests that the Planning Commission recommend
City Council approval of the Conditional Use Permit requested by Jim Lupient
Oldsmobile Company for an automobile repair and reconditioning operation at 900
Pennsylvania Avenue South in an Industrial Zoning District sub�ect to the
following conditions:
1. Building area and site usage shall conform to the Partial Plot Plan and Usage
Layout dated November 14, 1984, prepared by Albitz Design, Inc., and sub-
mitted with the Conditional Use Peronit application.
2. There shall be no parking of automobiles associated with Jim Lupient
Oldsmobile Company on site other than in the 74 parking spaces designated
for Jim Lupient Oldsmobile use on the Partial Plot Plan dated November 14, �
1984.
3. The number of parking spaces required by the City Zoning Code for other uses
within the total building shall be provided on site in addition to the 74
parking spaces allocated to Jim Lupient Oldsmobile Company as shown on the
Partial Plot Plan dated November 14, 1984.
4. There shall be no parking of automobiles in the street or on existing
landscaped areas.
5. There shall be compliance with all requirements of the Fire Code and all
� recommendations of the City Fire Marshal .
• 6. There shall be compliance with all requirements of the Uniform Building Code
and all recommendations of the City Building Inspector.
7. Signage on the site shall conform with the City Sign Regulations and appro-
val of the City Bui1ding Inspector.
8. There sha11 be no outside storage of n�terials or refuse.
9. Any failure to comply with one or more of the conditions of approval sha11
be grounds for revocation of the Conditional Use Permit.

Dear Alda:
2 am herewith enclosing three copies of the site plan you
requested. You will notice I have added dimensions and square
footage to the site plan as per your request. I have also noted
the number of parking stalls that Lupient Oldsmobile will be
using with this parcel.
• As to the uses of the space, we anticipate doing light
mechanical work, including new car get ready which would include
servicing and minor cleaning of new vehicles. We anticipate doing
used car reconditioning work mostly in the mechanical area such as
over hauling engines, transmission and drive line components. we
also will be doing some minor body repairs such as installing body
side moldings, mud flaps, etc. We will also be using a stall for
rustproofing cars. There will be no painting done at this site.
As to the rest of the building, Lupient Oldsmobile has rented
an additional 30, 000 square feet for parts storage, and we under-
stand that most of the balance of the building has now been rented
to Frederick Sherry, an office supply company who will be using
the rear of the building for warehouse space and the front for
offices.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to give
me a call.
Sincerely,
�. ... 1:
