- Minutes of the Golden Valley
Planning Commission
� August 24, 1981
A regular meeting of the Ptanning Commission was held in the Council Chambers
of the Civic Center, 7800 Golden Valley Road, Golden Valley, Minnesota.
Chairman Thompson called the meeting to order at 7:05 p.m.
Those present were Commissioners: Forster, Leppik, Moede, Polachek, Singer
and Thompson.
Commissioner Eastes was not present.
Also present was Alda Peikert, Assistant Planner
I . Approval of Minutes - Au ust 10, 1981 :
It was moved by Moede, seconded by Singer and carried unanirtrously to approve
the minutes of the August 10, 1981 Planning Commission meeting as recorded.
II . Set date for Informal Public Hearin - Rezoning:
APPLICANT: Earl Wilson, West Suburban Builders
� LOCATION: 6835 Sandburg Lane
REQUEST: Change Zoning from Residential to R-2
(Two-Family) Residential
Chairman Thompson introduced this agenda item and noted the staff recommendation
that the Planning Commission set a September 14, 19$1 hearing date. The Planning
Commission had no questions of the proponent, Mr. Earl Wilson, West Suburban
Builders, who was present. v
It was moved by Singer, seconded by Forster and carried unanimously to set
September 14, 1981 as the date for an informal public hearing on the request
received from Mr. Eart Witson, West Suburban Builders, Inc. , for rezoning of
6835 Sandburg Lane.
111 . Request by Hopkins School District for Waiver of Park Dedication
Reguirements - Preliminary Plat of Meadowbrook School Addition:
Chairman Thompson introduced this agenda item and noted the staff recammendation
for denial of the request for waiver of park dedication requirements.
Commissioner Leppik questioned whether consideration was given to the fact
that it is a public school district making the application for a waiver.
Commissioner Leppik expressed the opinion that in view of the fact that the pur-
pose of the park dedication requirement is preservation of open space, no further
dedication of land is necessary in this area as long as the school district
� maintains the school site in the current public school use.
�
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission - August 24, 1981
� Page 2
In response, Chairman Thompson pointed out that the property in question
would be sold for private rather than public use. Commissioner Moede added
that school districts do not hesitate to charge the City when school property
is sold for City use, and the fact that a public organization is requesting
the waiver is irrelevant.
Commissioner Singer suggested that the $68,400 evaluation of the property
proposed for platting is not the same as the asking price, and it could be
assumed that the park dedication fees in the amount of $�840 woutd be added to
the selling price in the manner of an assessment.
Chairman Thompson called on Dr. E. John Young, Director of Business Affairs,
Hopkins School District, who was present to represent the proponent. Dr. Young
stated that his arguments in favor of granting a waiver to the school district
had been very succinctly made by Commissioner Leppik. Dr. Ymung added that the
Hopkins School District has an excellent record for dedication of land for
City purposes and for reciprocal arrangements for City use of school facilities.
In addition, he pointed out that the purpose of selling the building was to
put it back on the tax rolts now that the school district no longer has need
of the building. �
Chairman Thompson recalled that there had been no similar request for a waiver
of park dedication requirements in the case of Westview Business Center, a
� conversion of school property to private use.
Commissioner Moede moved that the Planning Commission recommend denial of the
request from Hopkins School District for a waiver of Section 440:80 (2) of the
Subdivision Regulations in conjunction with the preliminary plat for Meadowbrook
School Addition and require payment of $6,840 in park dedication fees prior to
final platting and prior to rezoning. Commissioner Forster seconded the motion.
Chairman Thompson asked whether there was any discussion. Commissioner Singer
stated that the overriding concern of the Planning Commission should be setting
of precedent and that he was in favor of the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
IV. Report from Dave Thompson on APA (Minn. Chapter) Subcommittee on
Ptanning Educ_ation: ^
Chairman Thompson reported that he had attended his first meeting of the Planning
Education Subcommittee of the Minnesota Chapter of the Arr�rican Planning
Association (APA) . Chairman Thompson had been under the impression that the
purpose of the Subcommittee was to plan an alternative to the annual planning
institute held at the Radisson South in December. However, he found that the
Subcommittee would instead be assisting in planning and preparation for that
conference, which is sponsored by the MN Government Training Service in con-
junction with the State Planning Agency. The next meeting of the 5ubcommittee
� is scheduled for September 9, 1981 , and Chairman Thompson will report back to
the Planning Commission again after that meeting.

V. Report on BZA Meeting - �A�gust 11 , 1981 - Bill Forster:
Commissioner Forster reported on two Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) August
agenda items of interest to the Planning Commission.
The first item was a conditional waiver of the lot width requirement in the
Two Family (R-2) Residential Zoning District for Mr. Earl Wilson, West Suburban
Builders, on the same parcel for which the Planning Commission set a September 14,
1981 rezoning hearing date.
The second item was a waiver of the height limitation for erection of a 60
foot ham radio tower in a residential back yard in South Tyrol . The BZA noted
that the City had no ordinance to cover radio towers in residential districts
and requested that staff check into possibie recommendation of an ordinance
provision to cover similar requests.
Commissioner Moede suggested requesting that staff also consider regulations
to cover construction of dish type antennas in residential neighborhoods.
It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to request that the Director of
Public Works, coordinating with Planning staff and the Building Officialb pre-
pare a recommendation for Zoning Ordinance provisions to cover radio towers
• and dish type antennas in Residential Zoning Districts.
VI . Report on City Council Meeting - AuguSt 18, 1981 - Herb Polac�ek:
Commissioner Polachek reported that the main item on the August 18, 1g81 City
Council agenda was concept approval of PUD 30-B, the Bor-Son townhouse project
in northwestern Golden Valley. Commissioner Polachek reported that the City
Council approved the concept plan with additional outside parking space and
additional handicapped units.
Chairman Thompson informed the Ptanning Commission that Planning and Redevelopment
Director Mike Miller advised Bor-Son to apply to the HRA for financing prior
to submitting the General Plan of Development to the Planning Commission,
Commissioner Polachek reported that the only other Council agenda items pertinent
to Planning Commission business were first and second readings of four revised
sections of the Zoning Ordinance.
VII . Report on HRA Meeting - August 11 , 1g81 - Sue Eastes:
In the absence of Commissioner Eastes, Chairman Thompson gave a report on the
August 11 , 1981 HRA meeting. Chairman Thompson reported that t�e main HRA
agenda item was selection of a developer for the South Wirth Parkway Development
Project. Chairman Thompson reported that following presentation of five
� developer proposals, the Citizens Committee recommendation and the staff recom-
mendation, the HRA directed staff to negotiate further with two developers.

Chairman Thompson distributed copies of a narrative report on the League of
Women Voters questionnaire on City services to be reviewed by Planning Com-
missioners and discussed at a future meeting if desired.
IX. Letter from City Attorney regarding Liabitity of Commission Members:
In regard to the letter from the City Attorney or� liability and indemnification
of advisory board and commission members, which was distributed with the
agenda as an information item, Commissioner Singer stated that he understood
from the Summary section of the memorandum that a City Council resolution was
necessary to assure City defense and indemnification of Planning Commissioners.
It was moved by Commissioner Singer, seconded by Commissioner Forster and carried
unanimously to request that the City Council pass a resolution stating that it
will defend and indemnify Planning Commission members against claims by third
parties seeking damages for the alleged conduct of such members where it finds
the essential elements outlined in the Summary of the October 5, 1977 memorandum
from the City Attorney to be present. a
X. Slide Presentation by Herb Polachek on Trip to APA Conference in Boston:
. Commissioner Polachek showed slides of the trip to the APA Conference in Boston

Respectfully submitted,
David Thompson, Chairman Mona Moede, Secretary

ADDA Corporation, Edina, is proposing an office park P.U.D. at
5000 Olson Memorial Highway (2.94 acres of land immediately west of
the White House Restaurant) . In accordance with the provisions of
the P.U.D. Ordinance, the proponents have chosen to request General
Plan Approval without Concept Plan Approval . Therefore, a date must
be set by the Planning Commission for an informal public hearing on
General Plan Approval for P.U.D. #32, Bassett Creek Office Park.
I would suggest September 28, 1981 for such an informal public hearing.
I will distribute complete sets of plans for this P.U.D. after a

FROM: ALDA PEIKERT, ASSISTANT PLANNER
SUBJECT: SET DATE FOR INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING - REZONING -
801 OTTAWA AVENUE NORTH - CITY OF GOLDEN VALLEY
The City of Golden Valley proposes to rezone City property located
at 801 Ottawa Avenue North to the Institutional I-4 Zoning District.
The property is approximately 11 acres consisting of two former
parcels combined into one City owned parcel .
The westerly portion of the site, currently zoned Commercial , is
comprised of lowland purchased by the City in approximately 1975
for drainage and storm water retention purposes. The storm water re-
tention area is required under the Bassett Creek Management Plan.
The easterly portion of the site, fronting on Ottawa Avenue North
and currently zoned Multiple Dwelling (M-2) , was donated to the City
in 1980 by Mr. W. H. Schaper for purposes of open space preservation.
Staff suggests that the Planning Commission set September 28, 1981
� as the date for an informal public hearing on the City initiated �
rezoning of 801 Ottawa Avenue North.

T0: GOLDEN VALLEY PLANNING COMMISSION DATE: SEPTEMBER 8, 1981
FROM: ALDA PEIKERT, ASSISTANT PLANNER
SUBJECT: INFORMAL PUBLIC HEARING ON REZONING - 6835 SANDBURG LANE -
WEST SUBURBAN BUILDERS, INC. - RESIDENTIAL TO TWO FAMILY (R-2)
RESIDENTIAL
Mr. Earl Wilson, West Suburban Builders, inc. , requests rezoning of a vacant
lot located at 6835 Sandburg Lane from the Residential to the Two Family (R-2)
Residential Zoning District in order to allow construction of a double bungalow
on the site.
The lot proposed for rezoning meets lot area requirements but not lot width
requirements for the R-2 Zoning District. The lot area is 19,141 square feet,
and the lot width. is 99 feet.
Current requirements in the R-2 Zoning District are 18,750 square feet in area
and a minimum of 150 feet in width at the building setback line. However, the
Planning Commission and City Council , at the time of recent revision of the
Residential Sections of the Zoning Code, approved reduction of the minimum lot
� area and width requirements for the R-2-Zoning District to 12,500 square feet
and 100 feet at the building setback line. Publication of the revised Residential
Sections of the Zoning Code with the previous minimum lot area and width
requirements was an error, and the City Council has set a September 15, 1981
hearing date for first reading of an Ordinance amending area and width require-
ments to the reduced minimum requirements intended.
Mr, Wilson, West Suburban Builders, appeared before the Board of Zoning Appeals
(BZA) on August 11 , 1981 to request a waiver of the minimum lot width require-
ment for this lot. The BZA granted a variance of one foot from the intended
100 foot width requirement, rather than a 51 foot variance from the existing
width requirement. Accordingly, the BZA approved the variance conditional upon
amendment of the Ordinance, as well as conditional upon rezoning of the property
to the R-2 Zoning District. As pointed out in the sta�f inemorandum prepared
for setting of a hearing date on this petition at the August 24, 1981 Planning
Commission meeting, the BZA minutes reflect that the B,�A had no intention of
pre-empting Planning Commission and City Council action on th�request for re-
zoning and wished merely to preclude necessity for a return to the BZA in the
event that both the Ordinance amendment and rezoning are approved.
Surrounding zoning and land uses are compatible with the proposed rezoning for
construction of a double bungalow. Current zoning of this lot, the lot directly
to the east, and lots to the north across Sandburg Lane is Residential . There
are single family homes on the lot directly to the east and on lots to the north.
The property to the west is zoned Light Industrial . Adjacent on the west and
� at a lawer elevation is an office warehouse building housing several Light
Industrial tenants. The property directly to the south is zoned Institutional
(I-1) and consists of a parking lot for Carl Sandburg Junior High School , which
Informal Public Hearing on Rezoning
�835 Sandburg Lane-West Suburban Builders, Inc. Page 2
�
is located to the east across Sandburg Lane. The proposed double bungalow use
of the lot in question would provide a transition between the single family
and the adjacent office warehouse and school parking lot uses, actually more
suitabte to the site than the single family dwelling prescribed by current
Residentiat Zoning.
Staff suggests that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council
approve rezoning of 6835 Sandburg Lane from the Residential to the Two Family
(R-2) Zoning District, subject to amendment of Section 36.03 of the Zoning Code
to reduce minimum lot width in the R-2 District from 150 to 100 feet. The
recommendation for approval is based on compatibility with adjacent zoning and
land uses and on BZA approval of a one foot variance in lot width to bring the
lot into conformance with dimensional requirements.

copies of which had previously been distributed to the board.

The petition is for waiver of Section
3.051 lot width for 51 ' off the required 150' lot width
to a width of 99' as measured at the 35' setback line.
The petition was in order. Prese�t for the meeting was a son of. Mr. Earl Wilson
and another business representative. �
The secretary explained that the petition as filed was based on the prior residential
zoning code. The present code now adopted and in effect permits two-family dwellings
upon rezoning to R-2. A memo from Mike Miller described that an error occurred when
the new zoning code was published wherein the previous requirements of 150' frontage
and lot area of 18,750 sq. ft. was retained.
.
The proposed ordinance when recommended for approval by staff and the Planning Com-
• mission provided for a lot width of 100 ft. and 12,500 sq. ft. of area. An amend-
ment will be ,prepared for Council approval .

• Glen Christiansen noted that there appears�to be some interi� adjustment between
filing for a variance on existing zoning requirements until new sections are adopted
and implemented. Christiansen wanted to be sure that if this item was approved
subject to rezoning to R-2 through the Planning Commission and City Council that
the Planning Commission and Council be assured through these minutes that there
was no intent to prempt any decision by the Planning Commission or Council .
William Forster, noting as a member of the Planning Commission, he did not feel this
was a controversial item and he would clarify if necessary, the Board of Zoning
Appeals actions.
Glen Christiansen asked that the staff report by Mike Miller be included ��her this
item is addressed by the Planning Commission.
William Forster said if the zoning was approved for R-2 and the 100 ft. lot width was
amended to the •present ordinance, only a 1 ft. variance would be required. The lot
has 19, 141 sq. ft. of area which�exceed even the previous requirement of 18,750 sq.
ft. •
Noting all of the above and also that the lot is adjacent to industrial and insti -
tutional (Sandburg School) William Forster moved to approve a waiver of 1 ft. off
the required 100 ft, lot width when this width is amended to the Zonino Code and
subiect to rezoning to R-2 �esidential . Forster stated the purpose of moving to
approve would provide for the proponent not to have to return to the Board for a
• 1 ft. variance should the Zoning Code be amended and the rezoning be approved .
Glen Christiansen seconded the motion and upon vote motion carried subject to
the stated requirements .
