Also present were Mike Miller, Planning and Redevelopment Coordinator, and Alda Peikert, Assistant Planner. I . Approval of Minutes - July 11, 1983 It was moved by Commissioner Prazak, seconded by Commissioner Singer and carried unanimously to approve the minutes of the July 11, 1983 Planning Commission meeting as recorded. II. Informal Public Hearing - Rezoning APPLICANT: International Development, Inc. � LOCATION: 7700 Wayzata Boulevard REQUEST: Change Zoning from Residential to Business and Professional Offices Zoning District Chairman Thompson introduced this agenda item and referred Planning Commissioners to copies of a letter from the proponent requesting that the P`lanning Commission defer consideration of the proposed rezoning until the August 22, 1983 Planning Commission meeting. The letter was distributed to Planning Commissioners along with a staff recommendation for postponement of this agenda item until the September 12, 1983 Planning Commission meeting. Commissioner Leppik arrived at the meeting. Chairman Thompson recognized Mr. A1 Stobbe, who was present to represent the proponent. Mr. Stobbe stated that the proponent desires a postponement until after the August 1, 1983 date given by the Minnesota Department of � Transportation (MnDOT) for finalization of I-394 right of way requirements. For the benefit of residents attending for the scheduled informal pub1ic hearing, Chairman Thompson reviewed the staff recommendation for denial of the rezoning request at this time and stated agreement with the requested post- ponement as the best course of action. Chairman Thompson informed residents that neighboring property owners will be renotified by mail when the rezoning � comes before the Planning Commission again. Planning Commission Meeting - July 25, 1983 Page 2 � It was moved by Co�nissioner Singer, seconded by Correnissioner Polachek and carried unanimously to defer consideration of rezoning of 7700 Wayzata Boulevard and to reset the informal public hearing on the proposed rezoning for September 12, 1983. III. Informal Public Hearing - PUD #41 Preliminary Design Plan � APPLICANT: Robert Sanko LOCATION: 5615-5625 Olson Memorial Highway REQUEST: Approval of Preliminary Design Plan for PUD #41, Valley Wood Chairman Thompson introduced this agenda item and recognized the proponent, Mr. Robert Sanko. Commissioner Tubman asked the proponent whether he intends to sell both units of the subyect double bungalow. Mr. Sanko replied that he intends to sell one unit and to continue to reside in the other unit himself. Commissioner Leppik asked whether approval of the subject PUD would set a pre- cedent for zero lot line division of other existing double bungalows. Planning and Redevelopment Coordinator Mike Miller stated that approval of PUD � #36, Lakeview Terrace, which provided for zero lot line division of four existing double bungalows located southeast of 23rd and Winnetka Avenues North, already set a precedent for zero lot line division using the PUD pro- cess. Mr. Miller stated that existing double bungalows proposed for zero lot . line division must meet specific criteria for division and that the PUD process is the cleanest method available at this time for zero lot line division. Commissioner Tubman asked about information given in the staff report that the subject double bungalow was constructed in such a manner as to make it suitable for division. Mr. Miller explained that the City Inspection Department encourages construction of all new double bungalows in this manner. Commissioner Prazak asked whether there are any significant costs to the City in use of the PUD process for zero lot line division. Mr. Miller replied that the proponent pays all costs associated with the process. Chairman Thompson called on Mr. Sanko and asked whether he had any information to add to the staff report and discussion. Mr. Sanko stated that he wished to add only that he is in the process of constructing fencing which will almost entirely surround the subject property when complete. Commissioner Tubman asked how long there has been a tenant in the second unit, considering the building permit was issued as recently as October 1981, and whether Mr. Sanko wished to sell the second unit due to problems with renting. Mr. Sanko replied that there has been a renter in the second unit since � September 1982. Mr. Sanko stated that he has had no problems with the tenant in the second unit but that in general he would find sale of the unit pre- ferable to the caretaker role. Planning Commission Meeting - July 25, 1983 Page 3 � Chairman Thompson opened the informal public hearing for public input. There was no one present who wished to speak on this agenda item, and Chairman Thompson closed the informal public hearing. It was moved by Commissioner Tubman, seconded by Coimnissioner Leppik and carried unanimously to recommend City Council approval of the Preliminary Design Plan for PUD #41, Valley Wood, which proposes zero lot line division of an existing double bungalow located at 5615-5625 Olson Memorial Highway, sub- ject to submittal with the PUD General Plan of Development of �oint owner maintenance agreement and utility line easement documents for review and approval by the City Attorney. IV. Report on City Council Meeting - July 19, 1983 Commissioner Prazak provided the Planning Commission with a report on the Ju1y 19, 1983 City Council meeting. V.

The subject parcel of land, located at 206 Sunnyri:dge Lane, is approximately two and one half acres in size. The proponent, the law firm of Courey, Schwinn, Kodadek and McRoberts acting on behalf of the property owners , proposes division of the property into six lots. One lot encompasses a single fami.ly residence currently existing on the property, and the remalning five newly creafied vacant lots would be available for single family residential development. The Preliminary Plat submitted with the original application proposes extension of Roanoke Circle through the subject property to Sunnyridge Lane: The proRosed street layout completes a loop of Roanoke Circle previously planned at the time � of approval of Russell 's Wirth Park Addition directly to the south. The revised Preliminary Plat submitted in response to Planning Commission direction proposes a cul-de-sac with access off of Sunnyridge Lane.. This design leaves Roanoke Circle as it currently exists with a cul-de�sac directly to tfi.e south of t6.e cul- de-sac proposed .for "Tolg Addition'r. Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Plat of "To1g Addition" utClizi.ng the original through street design. Reasons .for recommendation of the through street design inctude �the following: 1 . Creation of nonconforming lots 2. Deficienci.es in terms of Minimum Subdi.vislon Design Standards for Streets and Cui-de-sacs 3• Life safety concerns 4. Street maintenance problems 5. Inefficient watermain design 6. Drainage problems • Golden Vailey Planning Commission -2- August 3, 1983 • ' � These items of concern are expanded in the following paragraphs. The City. Engineer will be present at the August 8, 1983 Planning Commission meeting to further explain staff concerns and answer questions. � 1 . Creation of nonconforming lots The revised Preliminary Plat of "Tolg Addition" which proposes a cul-de-sac design creates two �ots which are nonconforming in terms of lot width. Lots 3 and 4 are 75 feet in width at the buiiding setback line, which is 5 feet less than the minimum 80 foot lot width required by Ordinance. Lots in the revised plat are otherwise conforming in terms of lot size and width. On the other hand, all six lots in the original Preliminary Plat for "Tolg Addi.tion" utilizing a through street design exceed minimum lot size and width requirements. 2. Deficiencies in terms of Minimum Subdivision Design Standards for Streets and Cul-de-sacs The existing Roanoke Circle. cul-de-sac, which would remain in the event a through street is not completed, is deficinet in terms of the Minimum Subdivision Design Standards contained in the City Subdivision Regulations. Section 440.:70. (2) (a) of the City Code specifies a mi�nimum street right- � ..:of-way:wi�th :of 60 feet for a cul-de-sac street and a minimum diameter .of 120 feet for the right-of-way for a cul-de-sac. A 50 foot street width .� and 100 foot diameter cul-de-sac were allowed in the case of Roanoke Circle with the understanding that the cul-de-sac situation would be temporary and that the street would be completed through to Sunnyridge� Lane at t.�e time of development of the subject Tolg property. fn addition, the. existZng Roanoke Circle cul-de-sac exceeda tfis maximum allowa6.le- length. fo� a cul-d�- sac. Section 440:70 (2) (.j� of the City �ode provides for a maxi:mum cu.l�de��sac length of 500 feet measured along the centerline of the cu1-�e-sac street from the point of .intersection or origin to the ertd of the right-of-way. The existing temporary Roanoke Circle cul-de-sac is over 600 feet in length. 3. Life safety concerns The through street design is preferable to cul-de-sac design for emergency vehicle access and .is promoted by the Public Safety Department including the Fire Marshal : Attached for information is a memorandum provided to the Ci•ty �ngineer by the City of Eden Prairie explaining the advantages of through street over cul-de-sac design from the standpoint of life safety. t 4. Street maintenance problems The cul-de-sac design presents street maintenance problems particularly in terms of snow plowing. in addition to providing inadequate maneuvering space for snow plows, the cul-de-sac design is deficient in snow storage space due ta minimal street frontage left after driveways. • Golden Valley Planning Commission -3- August 3. 1983 • 5• Inefficient watermain design Looping of watermain is required for efficient operation. The watermain in Roanoke Circle currently terminates in the existing temporary cul-de-sac in anticipation of eventual street extenslon. In the event the street is not connected at the time of development of the Tolg property, the watermain s�ould nevertheless be carried through to Sunnyridge Lane. Watermain construction through the reserved street right-of-way beyond the Roanoke Circle cul-de-sac would take place even w.ithout street construction. A watermain easement should be provided for connection to the proposed new "Tolg Addition" cul-de-sac. Construction of watermain �in street right-of- way is preferable to construction in easements over private property from the standpeint of access for maintenance purposes: 6. Drainage probl`ems The proposed Grading Plan for Tolg Addition presents drainage problems in two areas: � First, the plan calls for drainage around the cul-de-sac gutter from the north side of the cul-de-sac to the soutih side of the cul-de-sac and onto Sunnyridge Lane. However, the grade provided alang the gutter is i.nadequate. The City Engineer specifies a minimum .8i grade in order to avoid standing • water in the cul-de-sac, and the proposed Grading Plan does not provide that minimum grade. Secondly, the proposed cul-de-sac plan directs a large portion of the surface water drainage to the southwest "of the subject property where a drainage problem already exists. Drainage in that direction enters an open ditch whi�ch has insufficient grade and tends :.to beEOme obstructed. According to the City Engineer, one house in th� area wi.th a walkout :basement design �has exper- ienced recurring problems .du� to the existfng drainage si:tuation. The through street design carries a greater portton of the surface water drainage down the street and alleviates the situation created by runoff to the southwest. In conclusion, staff confirms the recommendation presented in the July 6, 1983 staff report for conditional approval of the original .through street design. Recommended conditions of approv�l ihclude completion of a drainage plen satisfactory to the � City Engineer, addition of utility easements, and payment of park dedication. fees. As noted in the previous staff report, the drainage plan submitted with the original through street design Preliminary Plat was incomp]ete. The City Engineering Depart- ment requires information on drainage of the northeasterly portion of the proposed subdivision. A complete drainage plan satisfactory to the City Engineer should be provided prior to City Council consideration of the Preliminary Plat. • Golden Valley Planning Commissian -4- August 3� 1983 � Secondly, Section 440:70 (4) (a) of the Subdivision Regulations requires utility easements at least 12 feet wide centered on lot lines. The standard six foot drainage and utility easements required along side and rear property lines should be added on the Final Plat. Finally, Section 440-:80 (2) of the City Subdivision Regulations provides for dedication of ten percent of the area subdivided for parks, playgrounds, public open space or storm"water holding area or for payment of a cash amount equivalent to ten percent of the fair market value of the undeve}oped land in the proposed subdivision. It � is recommended that the proponent be required to pay cash in lieu of an amount equal to ten percent of the faiK market value of the subject undeveloped property. A fair market value figure will be �determined by the Hennepin County Principte Appraiser assigned to the City of Golden Valley prior to consideration of the Preliminary Plat by the City Council . Staff suggests that the Planning Commission recommend. Ctt.y Council approval of the original Pretiminary Plat of "Tolg Addition" utilizing a through street design subject to the following conditions : ' l . Provision of a complete drainage plan satisfactory to the City Engineer prior to City Council consideration of the Preliminary Plat. 2. Addition on the Final Plat of standard six foot drainage and utility easements • along side and rear property lines. 3• PaymeRt of cash in lieu of land in an amount equivalent to ten percent of the fair market value of the undeveloped ]and included in the Preliminary Plat.

IV. Informal Public Hearing - Preliminary Plat APPLICANT: Courey, Schwinn, Kodadek and McRoberts, P.A. L OCATION: 206 Sunny ridge Lane REQUEST: Approval of Preliminary Plat of "Tolg Addition" C hairman Thompson introduced this agenda item and recognized Mr. John Waldron f rom Courey, Schwinn, Kodadek and McRoberts, P.A., who was present to repre- __ sent the proponents. C hairman Thompson asked whether there were questions of staff, and Comnissioner' P razak asked whether the proposal was the same as originally submitted or w hether it had been changed in response to staff direction. Assistant Planner Alda Peikert stated that the proposal was as received with the formal applica- tion, but that she understood that previous inquiries had been made to the Engineering Department and that the proposal was drawn to correspond to E ngineering direction. C hairman Thompson called on Mr. Waldron to make a presentation for the propo- nents. Mr. Waldron described the proposed plat and the background for pre- • p aration af the proposal. Mr. Waldron stated that the proponents originally p repared a cul-de-sac design and would prefer a cul-de-sac to a through street, but that the Ci ty Engi neeri ng Department di rected development of a through s treet connecting Roanoke Circle to Sunnyridge Lane. Comni ssioner Leppik asked Mr. Waldron whether Roanoke Ci rcle currently ends with a cul-de-sac considering the half section map which shows an extension f rom the cul-de-sac to the subject property. Mr. Waldron explained that the p avement ends with the cul-de-sac but that right of way is reserved for � possible street extension. Mr. Bill Webster, 4007 Roanoke Circle, offered a drawing which he had prepared showing the existing cul-de-sac. Mr. Webster explained that the reserved right of way is currently maintained as lawn by the two homeowners on each s i de of the ri ght of way. Comnissioner Leppik asked whether the cul-d'e-sac right of way would revert to the ac�joining property awners if the cul-de-sac were abandoned. Ms. Peikert replied that the cul-de-sac would remain right of way as platted but that it could be used as lawn in the same manner as the right of way reserved for s treet extension is currently maintained as lawn. � Planning Comnission Minutes - July 11, 1983 � Page 3 • Comnissioner Forster asked the rationale for completion of a loop street extending Roanoke Circle to Sunnyridge Lane. Ms. Peikert replied that the two main considerations ar� street maintenance and emergency vehicle access. Ms. P eikert added that the street extension conforms to plans for a through street p rovi ded for by means of reservation of ri ght of way at the time of approval of the plat,to the south of the sub3ect property, Russell 's Wirth Park Addition. Comnissione�r Forster asked when Russell 's Wirth Park Addition was approved. M r. Robert Russell, developer of Russell 's Wirth Park Addition, was present a nd informed the Camnission that his plat was approved in 1972. Mr. Russell confirmed that a through street to Sunnyridge Lane was contemplated at that t ime. Chairman Thompson opened the informal public hearing for public input. M r. Bill Webster, 4007 Roanoke Circle, stated that the main point is that all of the neighbors would much prefer a cul-de-sac off of Sunny ridge Lane to a through street extended from Roanoke Circle. Mr. Webster st�ted that the through street design would be nwre costly and that it would be a poor choice aesthetically. Concerning cost, Mr. Webster listed the following points: 1 . Th e expense of removing the existing cul-de-sac at the end of Roanoke Circle and extending the driveways of the two homeawners on the cul-de-sac. � 2. The necessity for relocation of a fire hydrant at a cost of approximately $2500. 3. Necessity for an eight foot high retaining wall along a distance of approximately 100 feet due to differencs in grade. 4. Creation of an unmarketable low lot which will be 14 feet lower than the street. - 5. The possibility of creating a greater number of lots with a c�l- de-sac des9gn rather than a through street design. 6. The expense of construction of a street on poor soi ls. M r. Webster concluded his remarks on expenses with the statement that the through street design would cost three to four times construction of a cul-de- sac design. Mr. Webster added that the through street design is aesthetically inferior due to the steeper grades and due to the removal of trees. Dr. Matol Lysyj, 4004 Roanoke Circle, stated that he is opposed to the through street for the following reasons: 1 . Dr. Ly sy� understands that the grade change would require a c hange in the elevation of the street in front of his house and that this would put his garage at a different elevation in relation to the street. � Planning Comnission Mir�utes - July 11, 1983 Page 4 • 2. Snowplowing inconvenience is not reason enough to eliminate a cul-de-sac. Dr. Lysyj states that he pa�ys taxes which support in part the Engineering Department and road maintenance. Dr. Lysyj offered his driveway for turnaround space for snowplows � i f needed. 3. Dr. Lysyj stated that he is frequently awa�y at ni ght and that his wife feels safer from robbery or intrusion on a cul-de-sac than on a through street. . 4. Dr. Ly sy3 stated that the through street would destroy a part of his property and lower the property value. Dr. Lysy3 concluded that all the neighbors in the area prefer a cul-de-sac - design for the proposed development and that he sees no use in having this n umber of unhappy Golden Yalley citizens. Mr. James Garfunkel, 200 Sunnyridge Lane, questioned whether the proposed lot widths meet zoning requirements. It was confirmed that all lots in the pro- posed subdivision meet zoning requirements for size and width. Mr. Garfunkel s tated that his concerns include the loss of huge trees unique to the area and p roblems with drainage in the area. � M r. Ron Balazs, 4011 Roanoke Circle, stated that his concern is for the visual aspect of the area which is beautiful. Mr. Balazs questioned the need for a • loop street. Mr. Dave Morley, 4006 Roanoke Ci rcle, stated that his background is in archi- tecture and planning and that Mr. Webster made some excellent points concerning s oils and elevations. Mr. Morley added the following points in support of a c ul-de-sac rather than a through street design: 1 . The change in elevation will add to developer and builder problems a nd possibly to drainage problems. Several neighbors in the area a 1 rea�y have probl ems wi th water i n thei r basements. . 2 . The cul-de-sac design woul d increase property values and therefore p roperty taxes, which would pa�y the increased maintenance expenses. 3 . Ease of street designation or maintenance is not adequate reason t o insist on a through street design. Mrs. Daria Lysyj, 4004 Roanoke Circle, stated that the City required a large size cul-de-sac at the end of existing Roanoke Circle specifically for the accomnodation of snowplows and that it should be adequate. M s. Mary Gooderl, 4015 Roanoke Circle, stated that one reason given for the through street design is the need for two entries for public safety purposes. On the other hand, it has been noted that there is a higher probability of robbery where there are two access points. � Planning Comnission Minutes - July 11, 1983 Page 5 � Mrs. Betty Pedersen, 4013 Roanoke Circle, stated that the subject property is visually very steep and that it would clearly be e�ensive to construct a through street. Mrs. Pedersen stated that it seems a simple solu tion to build a cul-de-sac. Mr. Richard Morley, 4006 Roanoke Circle, made the point that there are alrea�jr many other existing cul-de-sacs in the City at this time. Mr. Morley stated that those who choose to live on a cul-de-sac do so for the quiet area and 1 ack of traffic. M r. Ray Pedersen, 4013 Roanoke Circle, stated that the proposed development is the new enterprise going in and that 3t is the one which must be disrupted. The current residents are the old enterprise and wish to maintain the area as i t is. Chairman Thompson closed the �nformal public hearing. Comnissioner Forster asked for confirmation that the cost of street construc-_ tion is paid by the developer. Ms. Peikert stated that the expense of street c onstruction is paid by the developer or assessed to the new property owners a nd that it is not a cost to the Ci�y. C hairman Thompson asked the proponent whether cost estimates have been done on the street construction. Mr. Waldron replied that he assumes estimates have been made but that he did not have that information. . C omnissioner Singer stated that with the City of Golden Valley completely developed, this could be the last cul-de-sac approved. Co mnissioner Singer recomnended that the proposal be sent back to the developer for preparation of a new plan with a cul-de-sac design. Comnissioner Polachek expressed concern over the steep grade of the proposed through street and stated that the grade would constitute a good basic planning reason for turning down the proposed through street design. I t was moved by Comni ssi oner Si nger, seconded by Comni ssi oner Pol achek and c arried unanimously to continue the informal public hearing to allow the pro- p onent time to coordinate with the City Engineering Department on preparation of a preliminary plat design utilizing a cul-de-sac based on the f ollowing findings: 1. A through street would result in poor land use. � 2. A through street would ill serve the property to be developed as well as the surrounding property. 3. The cul-de-sac option is preferable to the through street option based on both aesthetic and engineering considerations. � Planning Comnission Minutes - July 11, 1983 Page 6 � Mr. Waldron asked about timing of a return to the Planning Comnission and whether it would be necessary for the Planning Conmission to take action to set a new hearing date before the proposal is heard again. I t was moved by Comni ssioner Forster, seconded by Cortmi ssi oner Leppik and � carried unanimously to amend the motion to continue the informal public hearing until the August 8, 1983 Planning Comnission meeting. . APPLICANT: Coto Corporation L OCATION: 812 Lilac Drive North EQUEST: Approval of Prelimi nary sign Plan for . P UD #42, North Lilac Dr' e Addition C hai rman Thomp so i ntroduced thi s agenda i tem a recognized Mr. Ka�ye W esterlund, The Bu lders Studio, Inc. , who was resent to represent the propo- nents. C hairman Thompson calle , on Assistant Pla er Alda Peikert to expand on the s taff recommendation. M Peikert revie d the staff recornmendation for con- tinuance based on parking , d drainage oncerns and answered questions from C omni ss i oners. � C omnissioner Leppik questioned� het er the Planning Cortmission has options o ther than acceptance of the pro� ed reuse of the former Holiday Motor Hotel facilities short of forcing remo ��of buildings. Chairman Thompson stated that the Planning Comnission al ays �as the option of der�ying a proposal. C hairman Thompson called on . Westerl' nd to speak for the proponent. Mr. W esterlund described the pr posal and th specifically addressed the issues of p arking and the proposed gional trail. . Westerlund explained that the p arking located to the b ck of the restaura � on the north side of the site w ould primarily suppor the banquet facilitie�and would be required on banquet occasions onl . Mr. Westerlund informe the Comnission that the north property line of th sub�ect site is 50 feet fro�the centerline of the railroad track and hat the proposal therefore doe not eliminate the trail p ossibility. In sponse to Comnissioner questions'�,oncerning proposed resi- dential condomi um use in conjunction with the offic+�,�condominium use, Mr. W esterlund exp ined that the residential use is conter�lated in association with office u e only. A drop down type bed arrangement wpuld be added to • office unit where desired to provide sleeping accommodati ns for office con- dominium ers maintaining offices in the Twin Cities but ving their prin- cipal off ces and residences in another city. � C omnis oner Prazak asked whether the staff concerns could be ha led as con- d�iti s of an approval recommendation. Ms. Peikert stated that th drainage que ion could be handled as a condition requiring preparation of a rainage p 1 n acceptabl e to the Ci ty Engi neer prior to Ci ty Counci 1 action on e � P eliminary Design Plan. Ms. Peikert added that although the extent o � arking deficiencies is unclear due to use by the proponent of incomplet ` square footage figures, it is clear that parking is deficient on all three � w P � � Q N a�N . i �o ' o�' z �.

James Clark SUBJECT: Joint City Council - Planning Commission ' As you are aware, on 8/17/82, phil Mathiowetz and I represented the Public Safety Department at the City Council/Planning Commission meeting. We were asked to address the issue of dead end through streets and cul-de-sacs, specifically their impact on our service to the community. Speaking on behalf of the Police Division, I pointed out that our number one priority in serving the community is life safety. Second in priority is pro- tection of property. The addition of any future cul-de-sacs and the failure to connect neighborhoods by through streets, would have a serious affect on Public Safety response to emergency calls including medical emergencies. The added time needed to drive around one neighborhood to respond to another neighborhood can mean the difference between saving someone's life and not. � A condition already exists in our city where streets dead end and then begin in another neighborhood. This creates additional confusion when rFSponding to emergency calls. The Public Safety Department would recommend that the city attempt to con�ect through streets and eliminate cul-de-sacs in future development. This opinion is based on priority concerns for life safety and our ability to provide the quickest emergency service to our community. Protection of property can be influenced by the construction of cul-de-sacs. Cul-de-sacs lend themselves as a crime prevention tool when dealing with burglary and theft prevention. However, life safety signif icantly outweighs any gain that we may make in the area of crime prevention. We are prepared to explore alternative methods of crime prevention. Feel free to contact us if we can be of further help with this concern. . � • T0: GOLDEN VALLEY PLANNING COMMISStON DATE: AUGUST 3, 1983 FROM: MIKE MILLER, PLANNING AND REDEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR SUBJECT: MISCELLANEOUS AMENDMENTS TO THE CITY ZONING ORDINANCE Attached you will find copies of proposed amendments to the revised City Zoning•Ordinance for your review.
