Chairman Thompson introduced this agenda item and noted the staff recommendation
for a March 22, 1982 hearing date. .
It was moved by Commissioner Polachek, seconded by Commissioner Leppik and carried
• unanimously to set the date of March 22, 1982 for an informal public hearing to

REQUEST: Change Zoning from Business and Professional Offices
to Multiple Dwelling (M-3)
° Chairman Thompson introduced this agenda item and verified that the proponent
was represented. Copies of a letter from the Minneapolis, Northfield and Southern
Railway, expressing concern over proximity of the proposed residential devglopment
to the railroad line as a potential source of noise disturbance, were distributed
to Ptanning Commissioners.
Staff answered questions from Commissioners concerning location of the floodplain
on the subject site, elevation of the site in relation to Highway 100, land-
scaping of the floodplain and normal pond elevation in relation to the proposed
building.
.
Planning Commission Minutes of March 8, 1982 Page 3
•
Chairman Thompson recognized the representatives of the proponent, Mr. Don Erickson
and Mr. Vern Watten of Patch Erickson Madson Watten, Inc. , Architects. Mr. Erickson
presented t�e proposal , explaining that the proponent, Red Sky Development, Inc. ,
is a partnership of his architectural firm and the developer. �4r. Erickson
covered the history of development of the project, problem site characteristices,
preliminary traffic information, and positive features of the proposed development.
Mr. Erickson stated that preliminary traffic information provided by the proponent's
traffic cansultant indicated that the proposed condominium units would generate
y. l trips per day per unit for a total of approximately 400 trips per day for the
80 unit building. Selling prices of the proposed condominium units are expected
to be $85,000 to $95,000. Mr. Watten emphasized the ideal location in proximity
to the downtown area and noted that the ponding and landscaping contemplated would
enhance the site. •
Commissioner Leppik questioned the proponents concerning provision of tot lots
and protection of children from dangers of the pond, railroad tracks and highway.
The proponents replied that such considerations wili be anatyzed in detail by a
marketing expert.
Chairman Th mnpson recognized Planning and Redevelopment Coordinator tlike Fliller,
who presented the following points:
1 . Storm drainage from planned future upgrading of Highway �12 to I-394 will
be channeled onto the subject property and there will , therefore, be more
� storm water on this site in the future than is evident at this time.
2. The application under consideration is a zoning change to the Multiple .
Dwelling (M-3) Zoning District, which would allow for a building up to six
stories in height and for any density allowable in the M-3 Zoning District,
which would be considerably greater than the 80 units proposed by this
proponent.
3. The only access road to the subject site is a highway service road owned and
� maintained by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) . The City
will be unable to respond to calls for snowplowing and other road maintenance.
It has been observed that parking at the adjacent American Legion Club over-
flows onto the service road during Legion functions at this time resulting
in an already congested situation on the road.
4. The neighborhood surrounding the subject site is not a residential neighborhood.
Further evidence of the nonresidential character is contained in the letter
from the Minneapolis, Northfield and Southern Railway expressing concern over
noise disturbance generated by the railroad usage.
5• Staff has never endorsed the proposed project. Staff procedure calls for
presentation of a recommendation at the time of the informal public hearing
and not prior to that time.
•
Planning Commission Minutes of March 8, 1982 Page 4
•
Commissioner Leppik questioned both Mr. Miller and the proponent concerning
arrangements for maintenance of the access road. Commissioner Leppik asked
Mr. Miller whether future runoff from I-394 could alter the flood elevation at
the subject site, and Mr. Miller replied that alteration of the flood elevation
is not anticipated. In response to a question from Mr. Watten, Mr. Miller explained
that required provision for artd treatment of floodplain and storm water are regulated
by existing floodplain elevation determinations, the City Floodplain Ordinance and
the Bassett Creek Management Plan administered by the Bassett Creek Flood Control
Commission, all of which are in existence and repain unchanged, and therefore,
the City is not imposing on the property owner unexpected or undue requirements
in connection with flood and storm water management.
Chairman 7hompson opened the informal public hearing to comments from the public.
Mr. John Winston, attorney representing Breck School adjacent to the east of
the subject site, expressed support for the staff report and opposition to the
rezoning request due to impacts on storm water retention areas and due to adverse
visual impact. Mr. Winston expressed the opinion that it is unreasonable to change
the zoning of the subject property to suit one developer. Commissioner Forster
asked Mr. Winston how Breck School would feel about location of an office building
on the subject site. Mr. Winston replied that it would depend on the proposed
office building and that he would be concerned about a five story office building
as well .
• Mr. Erickson responded to Mr. Winston by stating the intent of the proponent to
extend rather than limit storm water ponding area on the site and added that the
proposed five story building would not be imposing due to location on }ow ground.
There was no one else present who wished to speak on this agenda item, and
Chairman Thompson closed the public hearing.
Chairman Thompson called for discussion from the Commissioners. Commissioner
Leppik commented that the Comprehensive Plan specified long term office use of the
subject site and that she feels the site is best suited to office use. She
explained further that she feels the site is unsuitable for residential development
due to close proximity to the highway and railroad line. Commissioner Leppik
concluded that she can see no overwhelming justification for changing the zoning.
Chairman Thompson agreed that he had heard no reason for changing the zoning.
It was moved by Commissioner Leppik, seconded by Commissioner Forster and carried
unanimously to recommend that the City Council deny the request from Red �ky
Development, Inc. for rezoning of a 7. 12 acre parcel of land within the northeast
quadrant of the intersection of T.H. 100 and Glenwood Avenue from the Business and
� Professional Offices to the Multiple Dwelling (M-3) Zoning District for the following
reasons:
l . Proposed Multiple Family Residential use of the subject site is not in accor-
dance with the proposed Golden Valley Comprehensive Plan.
. 2. Office use specified by the current Business and Professional Offices zoning
of the subject site is more compatible with surrounding land uses than the
proposed t9ultiple Family Residential Use.
Planning Commission Minutes of �arch 8, 1g82 Page 5
�
3. Proposed construction of 80 condominium units on the subject site represents
overdevelopment of the site, due to constraints imposed by the floodplain,
storm drainage ponding requirements and limited access.
4. The proposed five story condomi�ium structure is incompatible with surrounding
devetopment in terms of height.
5. Noise level due to close proximity of Highway 100 and the railroad line to the
subject site is too high for residential use.
VI . Informal Public Hearing - P.U.D. �30-B, Medley Park Townhouses:
APPLICANT: Bor-Son Construction Companies
LOCATION: West of Medley Park and North of Kings Valley
Townhouses
REQUEST: Approval of General P}an of Development for
P.U.D. #30-B
Chairman Thompson introduced this agenda item and reviewed previous City Council ,
Nousing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) , and Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA)
approvals connected with the proposed project.
� Chairman Thompson afforded Planning and Redevelopment Coordinator Mike Miller
the opportunity to speak to the amenity package as requested in the staff report.
Mr. Miller reported that the proponent rectified the absence of washers and dryers
in individual rental units. Although the proponent previously agreed to provide
washers and dryers in each rental unit, plans submitted with the PUD General Plan
of Development application did not include this provision. Mr. Miller drew
attention to revised floor ptans provided by the proponent which include washers
and dryers in each individual rental unit.
Chairman Thompson recognized the representatives of the proponent, Ms. Betty
Kaelke, Project Manager with Bor-Son Construction Companies and Mr. Bill Hennemuth,
architect with Reike Carroll Muller Associates, Inc.
Ms. Kaelke gave a brief presentation of the proposed project General Plan of
Development and answered a question from Commissioner Leppik concerning emergency
vehicle access.
�
Chairman Thompson opened the informal public hearing ta comments from the public.
Mr. Steve Wells, 2228 Kings Valley Road East, expressed concern over lack of contact
with the Kings Valley Homeowners by the developer, preservation of wildlife habitat,
and failure to integrate subsidized units with market rate housing within the
project. Mr. Wells asked for an explanation of the BZA role in the PUD process.
Mr. Miller offered an explanation of the PUD process and the role of the BZA in
granting parking waivers.
•
Planning Commission Minutes of March 8, 1982 Page 6
• Mr. Dennis Rock, 2404 Hillsboro Avenue No. , representative of the Galant Homeowners,
stated that concerns of the Galant Townhouse residents have been met as best they
could be and that he thinks the proposed Bor-Son project is bringing the best
possible use of the land.
Mr. Bruce Duffy, 2304 English Circle, requested assurance that storm water drainage
provisions included in the proposed project will alleviate basement flooding problems
experienced at his residence in Kings Valley. Mr. Miller informed Mr. Duffy that
the proposed drainage plan had been worked out to the satisfaction of the City
Engineer.
In response to questions raised by the public, Mr. Hennemuth explained the proposed
drainage system forthe project and proposed plans for preservation of wildlife
habitat on the subject site. Ms. Kaelke reported that integration of the subs�idized
rental housing with the market rate ownership units is impossible due to separate
managements and separate mortgages.
There were no other persons who wished to speak on this agenda ifiem, and Chairman
Thompson closed the informal public hearing.
Chairman Thompson called for discussion by the Commissioners. Commissioner Leppik
stated that overall she feels the proposed General Plan of Development is a very
good plan.
• It was moved by Commissioner Polachek and seconded by Commissioner Forster to recommend
that the City Council approve the General Plan of Development for PUD #30-B, Medley
Park Townhouses. Chairman Thompson suggested an admendment to the motion providing
that if drainage from the project adversely affects neighboring property, the �developer
shall correct the situation. Commissioner Leppik suggested a second amendment
to the motion providing for design of at least one garage unit in the rental portion
of t�e project for handicapped accessiblity and fo�rpriority availability of that
garage unit to a handicapped resident of the handicapped dwelling unit. Commis-
sioners Polachek and Forster accepted the two suggested amendments to the motion,
and the motion as amended was passed unanimously.
VII . Constderation of Proposed revisions to Zoning Ordinance:
1 . Commercial Zoning District
2. Open Development Zoning District
s
Chairman Thompson suggested deferral of consideration of revisions to the Zoning
Ordinance due to absence of two Planning Commission members and due to the fact
that the one new member of the Planning Commission could probably make use of
addit�anal t�i�me for review. Other Commissioners concurred with this suggestion.

. T0: GOLDEN VALLEY PLANNING COMMISSION DATE: MARCH 17, 1982
FROM: MIKE MILLER, PLANNING � REDEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR
SUBJECT: RESCHEDULE INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING DATE FOR P.U.D. #35
The Planning Commission had originally set the date of March 22, 1982
as the date for an informal public hearing to consider General Plan
Approval without Concept Plan Approval for P.U.D. #35, Busch Site Office
Warehouse. However, due to lack of sufficient design and engineering
information, P.U.D. #3S has been withdrawn from the March 22, 1982 agenda.
Hopefully, by March 22, ig82 we will have a new date for an informal
public hearing to recommend.

FROM: ALDA PEIKERT, ASSISTANT PLANNER
I�, SUBJECT: INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING - P.U.D. GENERAL PLAN OF DEVELOPMENT
WITHOUT CONCEPT PLAN APPROVAL - P.U.D. #34, GOLDEN VALLEY
LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Golden Vatley Lutheran College requests approval of a General Plan of
Devetopment without Concept Plan approval for PUD #34, Golden Valley
Lutheran College. Preparation of the PUD General Plan of Development
for Golden Valley Lutheran College was precipitated by a proposal for
�I expansion of the College facilities located at 6125 Olson Memorial
'� Highway.
Existing buildings on the Golden Valley Lutheran College campus include
a two story ctassroom building comprising approximately 67,760 square
feet of space and four dormitories described as follows: The three story
southwest dormitory comprising approximately 48,240 square feet of space,
the two west dormitories which are both two story and comprise approx-
imately 12, 170 square feet of space each, and the two story east dormitory
which comprises 12,76o square feet of space.
� , The College property has not been subdivided to accommodate the five
individual �xisting buildings. The entire campus property totals 30
acres, including two main central parcels between vacated Douglas Drive
North on the west and the Minneapolis, Northfield and Southern Railroad
line on the east, four original platted lots and an outlot west of vacated
Douglas Drive, two platted lots to the southeast fronting on Meander
Road, and a remnant parcel to the east of the railroad line. The only
building located on a separate parcel is the classroom building. The
four dormitories are located all on the same remaining central parcel
with the most westerly dormitory extending partially into vacated Douglas
Drive on the west.
The existing situation on the Golden Valley Lutheran College campus is
not in conformance with Section 1 .03 of the City Zoning Code, which
prohibits more than one principal buitding on a lot or parcel . At the
suggestion of City Staff, Golden Valley Lutheran College utilized the
opportunity afforded by the proposed expansion to rectify this situatidn by
employing the PUD p�ocess. The PUD procedure includes platting of the
entire College property to accommodate both existing development and
proposed expansion in conformance with the City Zoning Ordinance and Sub-
division Regulations.

Expansion of Golden Valley Lutheran College facilities praposed at t�is
time includes construction of the following: A new dormitory and commons
building, a cafeteria addition to the classroom building, and a new
parking lot and connecting drive. The proposed fifth dormitory is a
three story structure comprising 32,680 square feet of space. The con-
necting commons area is one and one half stories with a balcony design
including a total of 4,500 square feet of space. The cafeteria addition
to the classroom building is one story and 2,478 square feet in area.
Total new space is 39,658 square feet compared to 153,100 square feet of
already existing building space, representing a 25.g percent increase in
space.
The new dormitory construction is planned to accommodate an increase in
enrollment of approximately 30 percent. Current student enrollment includes
400 students who live on campus and 140 commuters for a total of 540
students. The new dormitory will house an additional 160 students for a
total of 560 students living on campus. College officials expect the
commuter student enrollment to remain constant for a total enrollment of
approximately 700 students.
The proposed parking lot expansion will increase available parking by 33
� percent from 260 spaces to 346 spaces. The new parking lot will accom-
modate 102 cars, but there will be a loss of 16 spaces removed during new
construction for a net gain of 86 spaces. Parking is ample under applica-
tion of both the existing and proposed Institutional (I-2) Zoning District
requirements. Zoning regulations stipulate one parking space for every
four units of seating capacity or for every four students enrolled. Total
parking spaces will be almost one for every two students .
The proposed new construction includes installation of a circulation drive
connecting the existing east and west access roads as stipulated by the
City Fire Marshal for purposes of emergency vehicle access. The new
connecting drive will not only afford emergency vehicle access but will
also improve traffic circulation in general .
The City Fire Marshal reviewed the PUD General Plan of Development and
recommended the following conditions of approval :
l . Installation of sprinkler system in all trash chutes and trash colt
lection areas.
2. Approval of fire alarm systems by the City Fire Marshal prior to
installation.
3. Installation of a Fire Department siamese, a connection accommodating
two fire hoses, on the new dormitory building at the southwest corner
� of the extension on the west side near the new fire hydrant.
4. Specification of wet type standpipes.

The City Building Officiai and City Engineer also reviewed the General
Plan of Development for PUD #34, Golden Valley Lutheran College. The
Building Official finds plans to be in conformance with all applicable
codes, and the City Engineer finds grading, drainage and utility construction
plans to be satisfactory. The City Engineer recommends as a condition
of approval vacation of the section of existing watermain easement running
through the proposed new commons building and dedication of new watermain
easements forthe proposed watermain running around the new commons building
and fort��e proposed new watermain running to the west side of the new
dormitory building, with vacation and dedication of these watermain
easements to be completed prior to issuance of a building permit for the
new dormitory and commons building.
The Acting City Park and Recreation Director reviewed the PUD General Plan
of Development and suggests that along with expansion to accommodate
growth in enrollment, "it witl become necessary for the coltege to expand
its thinking in the area of recreation". The Acting Park and Recreation
Director was under the impression at one time that the College was
considering construction of a ball field in the area proposed for parking
lot expansion. The College currently utilizes City ball fields and
tennis courts. Staff does not feel that neglect of recreational needs
during the proposed current College expansion necessitates a negative recom-
• mendation on the PUD General Plan of Development. However, the City wishes
to notify the proponent, Golden Valley Lutheran College, that future expansion
plans should include provision for the recreational needs of the student
population.
This brings us to comment on the fact that the architect preparing plans
for the current expansion has indicated that the College definitely con-
templates further additions to campus facilities in the future. In the
words of the architect, the "next project" he expects to work on for Golden
Valley Lutheran Cotlege is addition of a chapel . Also in future planning
is a shift of the track and field events area to the south to accommodate
construction of a gymnasium in the northern portion of that area. Perhaps
preparation of a more far sighted PUD General Plan of Development for
Golden Valley Lutheran College, rather than a rushed set of minimal plans
for the current expansion project, would have shown that the College does
in fact contemplate provision for recreatianal needs in the future.
s
While City staff appreciates the fact that Golden Valley Lutheran College
is taking a step in the right direction in utilizing the PUD process for
approval of the current expansion program, the intent of the PUD Ordinance
is provision of a far more comprehensive guide for total development of a
tract of land than is afforded by the limited plans prepared for this
General Plan of Development. Staff believes that better use of the PUD
process by Golden Valley Lutheran College in the future would assist both
the College and the City in achieving the most beneficial ultimate use of
• College property.
RE: In�ormal Public Hearing - P.U.D. #34, Golden Valley Lutheran College
� March 17, 1q82
Page 4
For purposes of guidance to Golden Valley Lutheran College in preparation
of plans for future expansion projects, the City wishes to notify the
College that future expansion projects will require a repeat of the PUD
approval process. In the future, PUD plans should include complete infor-
mation on both existing and proposed facilities and on contemplated
changes in student enrollment. In order to best plan for future needs
and in order to minimize the number of times the college will be compelled
to repeat the PUD process, Golden Valley Lutheran College is encouraged to �
prepare at the earliest opportunity the most complete plan for future
development possible.
Staff suggests that the Planning Commission recommend City Council approval
of the General Plan of Development for PUD #34, Golden Valley Lutheran
College, subject to the following conditions:
1 . Inclusion in current expansion plans of fire protection measures stip-
ulated by the City Fire Marshal , including installation of sprinkler
system in all trash chutes and trash collection areas, approval of
fire alarm systems by the City Fire Marshal prior to installation,
installation of a Fire Department siamese on the corner of the new
dormitory closest to the fire hydrant, and specification of wet type
• standpipes.
2. Vacation of existing watermain easement and dedication of new water-
main easements prior to issuance of a building permit for the new
dormitory and commons building.
3. Preparation of complete and comprehensive PUD plans in accordance with
the intent of the City PUD Ordinance at the time of any future expansion
of Golden Valley Lutheran College facilities.
4. Provision for student recreational needs in any future expansion of
Golden Vatley Lutheran College facilities.

15. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
Section 15:01. Short Title. This Ordinance may be known and
referred to as the City of Golden Valley Planned Unit Development
(PUD) ordinance, except as referred to herein as "this Ordinance"
or �"this Chapter" .
Section 15s02. Purpose and Intent. The purpose of this
Ordinance is to encourage, preserve and improve the health,
safety and general welfare of the people of the City of Golden
Valley by encouraging the use of contemporary land planning
principles and coordinated community design.
Planned Unit Development (PUD' s) are created hereby in
recognition of the economic and cultural advantages of planned
community-type developments of sufficient size to provide related
areas for various housing types, retail and service activities,
industrial operations, recreation, school, public facilities,
and other uses of land. The PUD procedure is designed to be
used where designation of a single use zoning district or
application of standard zoning code requirements to a development
are too rigid for practical application.
� It is the intent of this Ordinance to provide an optional method
of land use regulations which permit design flexibility by
substantial variances from the provisions of the zoning code,
including uses, set-backs, height, parking requirements, and
similar regulations.
Section 15:03. Definition of Planned Unit Developments. Planned
Unit Developments are d�ined or purposes o this Ordinance
to include only the followinga
(1) Developments having two or more principal uses on a
single parcel of land;
(2) Developments having two or more principal structures
' � on a single parcel of land;
(3) Apartment projects involving �► multi-use structure,
such as an a�artment building with retail at ground`
floor level;
(4) Townhouses which for purposes of this Ordinance are
defined as single family, attached dwelling units on
separate parcels of land which are constructed
contiguous to one another and separated by a bearing
wall or walls. Such dwelling units shall be contained
� within one structure and shall be of the row house
type in contrast to multiple dwelling apartment
e
structures. T'hey shall also have separate entrances
to front and rear yards;
(5) Developments having two or more principal use structures
Iocafed on two or more lots either in single or multiple
, ownership, provided the combined area totals two or
more acres and the plan submitted includes the entire
area to which the planned unit will appl.y;
(6) Parcels within redevelopment areas which have been
� established pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Sections
462.411 - 462.716, and all acts amendatory thereof.
A development may qualify as a Planned Unit Development only �

and an appropriate determination by the City Council.
Section 15:04. Applicability of Zoning Code. Planned Unit
Developments may be excluded froin certain other requirements
of the Zoning Code and this Ordinance providing that the
conditions contained herein are complied with. The granting
of a PUD permit does not alter the existing zoning district
classification of a parcel in any manner; however, once a PUD
use permit has been granted for a parcel, building permits shall
� not be issued for that parcel which are not in conformance with
the Building Code, with all other applicable ordinances and
with the approved PUD use permit unless the permit has been
amended, cancelled or modified. �
