Executive Summary
Golden Valley Council/Manager Meeting
January 14, 2014
Agenda Item
1. Teen Commission
Prepared By
Thomas Burt, City Manager
Summary
Mayor Harris has been working with Andrew Urevig on the concept of forming a Teen Commission.
Attached is information prepared by Mr. Urevig on his proposal for a Commission. In addition,
there is information on how other communities have utilized teen commissions.
Staff seeks the direction of Council to determine if there is interest in forming this Commission. The
proposal gives the authority to the Commission on what their purpose and role will be. I would
recommend the Council discuss what role it would like this Commission to perform. Also by
creating this Commission you will be adding responsibilities (workload)to staff and there will be
both direct and indirect costs of forming another commission.

• Proposal for a Golden Valley Teen Commission (13 pages)
"Across the country, municipal leaders are discovering one of their greatest assets: the youth of
their city. Increasingly,youth are working with elected o�cials and other ciry leaders to tackle
the important issues of local government. "
—National League of Cities
Proposal for a Golden Valley Teen Commission
Teens are underutilized by the City of Golden Valley as a community asset. There are teens who wish to become
more involved in their community—but they don't have a way to do so.Authentic and civic-minded youth
participation in government is vital to our democracy, and this still holds true on the local level.
Why a Teen Commission?Why now?
The time is right for a Teen Commission in Golden Valley. Feedback from teens would benefit the City, as
young people often don't have the chance to speak directly with government officials. Furthermore, community
involvement is important at any age.
Teens can contribute a valuable perspective to issues that Golden Valley faces. Housing and redevelopment can
impact teens, transit impacts teens, recreation impacts teens—government impacts teens. For instance,the
recent residential survey asked about the potential of a community center in our city. "Space for teen programs"
is one of only four potential offerings that boasts over 65% support among residents.
Many community concerns bear directly and uniquely on teens, but even on broader issues, we can add
additional insight. We often bring a different perspective on city issues to the table than do older adults, which is
great—a sustainable setting for teens to contribute ideas can only strengthen city policy.
What is your proposal?
High school and middle school students living in Golden Valley would comprise the Teen Commission.
Interested students would fill out an application, answering a few questions about their desire to serve on the
, commission.Then the Open Space&Recreation Commission would interview all applicants, and ultimately
select teens to serve on the Teen Commission.The City Council would install new members at a Council
meeting.
When deciding who would be a good fit, the interviewers would consider the application and interview, in
addition to other factors such as school representation, age, and community involvement.The interviewers
would be tasked with selecting a commission that best balances the skills of individual teens with the need to
accurately represent all teens in the City, for example, by ensuring that the teens chosen come from many of the
different schools that serve Golden Valley residents.
The Teen Commission would meet monthly, with a staff liaison from the Park&Recreation Department
present. The group would determine its own procedures and agendas. Fundamentally,the Teen Commission
would weigh in on issues that affect teens.The commission would make recommendations to other
commissions and the City Council; it would also take actions of its own, so long as those actions were within
the commission's discretion or the discretion of the City Council.
Does this represent an opportunity for Golden Valley?
Yes!After conducting research on teen advisory groups in other states and reading reports published by groups
like the National League of Cities, we have crafted what we believe to be the best approach for Golden Valley.
This small proposal could have a big impact and make Golden Valley a better place to live—for everyone.
Teen Commission Proposal— 1/14
Sample of Research Findings
Our Proposal for Golden Yalley
Many cities across the country boast teen or youth commissions of their own. These groups take many
forms, with most falling into one of three roles: advisory, community service, or event-planning. Some
commissions take on some combination of the three roles.
Our proposal for Golden Valley's Teen Commission entails a primarily advisory capacity, where the group
would make recommendations and study policy issues of concern to Golden Valley teens.
That said, other Golden Valley commissions with an advisory role also branch out and coordinate events
relevant to their goals, so the Teen Commission might potentially consider doing so as well. Community
service is not an option that has been determined to be desirable.
Initial Cities Contacted
Saratoga, CA
• Youth Commission
• Eleven middle and high school residents who are appointed by the Saratoga City Council for two-
year terms.
• "As leaders of their community, the commissioner's role is to serve as a liaison between the young
citizens of Saratoga and the City Council. In addition, commissioners plan, promote and
participate in community service, educational and fun activities for the City's youth."
• http://www.sarato�a.ca.us/citvhall/comms/�outh/
• Population: 29,926
Notes from phone conversation:
• Started because the city's community center wanted youth input.
• Current purpose is to plan and provide teen activities and events.
• Middle and high school students.
• 11 youth commissioners, two-year terms.
• City Council selects commissioners via an application and interview process.
� All applicants are required to attend and observe at least one commission meeting from the
prior year.
� Application includes basic questions.
� City Council interviews all applicants.
Benicia. CA
• Middle and high school students that meet twice a month
• "The purpose of the commission is to serve as an advisory body to the Parks, Recreation and
Cemetery Commission and other groups on matters relating to the welfare of Benicia's youth."
• "Paper application followed by Parks& Community Services Department."
• Population: 26,997

activities and drives, supporting City special events, and hosting 2-3 large dances for middle and high
school students."
Sabrina Corley, Benicia Youth Commission Chair:
"I believe the events that we hold are fairly successful every year. We live in a small town that doesn't
have much going on, so our biannual clock tower dances attract about 300 high schoolers and similar
numbers for middle school dances. We hold the middle school dance in the early evening then the high
school dance in the later evening that night. Our PR officers are in charge of advertising at their respective
schools (we have one middle school and one high school). They advertise via school wide announcements
and flyers, plus word of mouth an social media.
The age disparity [with both middle and high school students on the commission] actually creates more
dynamic in our meetings. We get input from all ages and can come to a consensus that suits all age groups
of the community.
Presenting our work plan in November doesn't pose a challenge to me because we commit our first two
meetings to finalizing our work plan for me to present to the adult commission. It helps us focus our goals
so that our focus doesn't get lost in a sea of ideas.
The group voluntarily chooses to comes for meetings so everyone is fairly respective during meetings; I
only have to grab their attention a few times a meeting and they quickly react to me.
Robert's Rules of Order creates a more formal and serious environment far our commission, and I believe
it makes commissioners feel more serious and that they're making a more 'official' impact."
PlXmouth.MN

Our Commission as a whole completes over 1,000 hours of community service a year. With two staff
persons and the addition of admin time we are looking at approx. 6,000 hours+,
Burlingame, CA
"The time commitment varies depending on the number of activities going on each month.There are two
weeks of interviews in the beginning, meetings twice a month, additional committee meetings as needed,
and all special events. I would say that I spend at least 15 hours a month on my YAC, but that is because I
love doing it and make sure it works with my other time commitments."

Executive Summary
Golden Valley Council/Manager Meeting
January 14, 2014
Agenda Item
2. Status of J-HAP, Inc. (Jewish Housing and Programming) Supportive Housing Proposal -
9300 and 9310 Golden Valley Road
Prepared By
Mark Grimes, Community Development Director
Summary
J-HAP (Jewish Housing and Programming) has purchased two properties at 9300 and 9310 Golden
Valley Road. On April 3, 2013, the City Council amended the Zoning Map in order to allow these
two lots to be used for supportive housing. The properties had previously been zoned Business and
Professional Offices and the properties were rezoned to High Density Residential (R-4). At the same
meeting, the City Council also amended the General Land Use Map from the Commercial-Office
Designation to Residential-High Density.
J-HAP is now in the process of finalizing the funding for the structure that will have 50 units of
supportive housing which includes offices, a wellness center, dining area and gathering spaces and
public spaces. It is anticipated that the residents would be low income. The estimated cost of this
housing is $12,000,000.
The cost of the housing will be funded by several sources. About half is planned to be funded by
donations. My understanding is that the fund raising campaign is underway and going well. The
other sources of funding are from tax credit equity proceeds ($6 million), Community Development
Slock Grant (CDBG) funds, Hennepin County funds, and the potential for funds from Golden Valley
by the use of Tax Increment Financing (TIF).
Attached is information that was provided to the City Council as part of the General Land Use Plan
Map amendment and Rezoning processes. Also attached is a brochure from J-HAP for the campaign
to raise funds for the supportive housing in Golden Valley.
At this time, J-HAP has approached City staff about the possibility of using TIF for this development.
Staff is asking the City Council to give direction to staff whether or not to work with J-HAP to
explore the use of TIF. If this direction is to go forward, l-HAP would complete all necessary forms
and pay the fees as established by the City Council to determine the feasibility of the use of TIF.

From: Joe Hogeboom, City Planner
Subject: Informal Public Hearing—Comprehensive P�an/General Land Use Plan Map
Amendment-9300 and 9310 Golden Valley Ftoad—City of Golden Valley
and J-HAP, Inc., Applicants
.� ���;�n���,����h�u��a��� ��. ,. ..::. �, .. . ,.,..... .,µ �.._.: -�����w.: ����.:::: . .��Niii���.,-. :.�ii��ii�d�. . ,���u�� .:.
Background
J-HAP (Jewish Housing and Programming) is a faith-based, non-profit organization which serves to
provide life-long services and housing to adults who have developmental disabilities. While no
current facility exists, the organization's vision is as follows:
"To empower residents to achieve their full potential by providing guidance and support,
the ability to practice a lewish life style, and enable a high quality of life enriched with
socialization opportunities, education, vocation, culture, and recreation."
The organization has identified the properties at 9300 and 9310 Golden Valley Road as the
preferred location for its future facility. The site is in close proximity to the majority of 1-HAP's
partner agencies and its client base. In order to meet the needs of its funding partners,J-HAP must
first successfully establish proper zoning and land use controls on the site.
The amenities planned for the facility include approximately 50 residential units, lounge and
communal areas, a library, dining facilities, exercise facilities and offices. J-HAP does not currently
have specific site plans for the property. J-HAP is working with staff to determine stormwater and
waste water issues at the site.
When site plans are prepared, it is anticipated the J-HAP will apply for a Planned Unit Development
(PUD) Permit. In the interim, the existing house and office building on the site will remain legally
non-conforming land uses.
Site Information
Currently, a small office building is located at 9300 Golden Valley Road, and a single family
residential home is located at 9310 Golden Valley Road. Golden Valley Road was the primary
east/west transportation corridor through Golden Valley during the early portion of the twentieth
century. When Olson Memorial Highway was constructed in the 1960s, that portion of Golden
Valley Road began to serve as a frontage road.
In 2008, the City updated its Comprehensive Plan and guided 9300 and 9310 Golden Valley Road as
"Commercial-Office." It was thought at the time that the success of the office area along U.S.
Highway 169 to the west would spur further like development at this site. Since that time, the City
approved a 142-unit luxury apartment building across Golden Valley Road from the J-HAP site.
Coinciding with the approval of the luxury apartment development, the City's Housing and
Redevelopment Authority established the Highway 55 West Renewal and Renovation Area along
this corridor. The Renewal and Renovation Plan, which was required for creating the Area,
identifies pedestrian-scale improvements to Golden Valley Road, west of Decatur Avenue.
Improvements will likely include the installation of sidewalks and decorative pedestrian lighting.
The Golden Valley Road/Decatur Avenue intersection with Highway 55 will also be improved.
Recommendation
Upon the direction of the City Council, staff has been working with J-HAP officials to identify
appropriate locations for its facility in the community. The Planning Department believes that the
9300/9310 Golden Valley Road site is very well suited for this development due to complimentary
adjacent residential and social service-based land uses, its close proximity to restaurants, retail and
jobs, its close proximity to transit service and the planned pedestrian enhancements to Golden
Valley Road. 4
Staff recommends approval of the Comprehensive Plan/General Land Use Plan Map Amendment,
re-designating 9300 and 9310 Golden Valley Road from "Commercial-Offices" to "Residential-High
Density" in order to accommodate the future development of a faith-based residential facility to
serve adults with developmental disabilities.

4. Transition to Hennepin County Dispatch for Police and Fire Services
Prepared By
Stacy A. Carlson, Chief of Police
Mark Kuhnly, Fire Chief
Summary
The Hennepin County Board of Commissioners has passed two resolutions related to the City of
Golden Valley transitioning police and fire dispatch service to the Sheriff's Office dispatch facility.
The first resolution states that "Golden Valley is authorized to join the Hennepin County PSAP at
the time the new 911 facility opens in Plymouth, estimated to be in late 2014." The second
resolution states "the financial arrangements for the provision of service will be resolved three
months prior to becoming operational in the new facility and will be approved by the Hennepin
County Board." Please note the first resolution included language estimating payment of a one-
time set-up fee of$54,000, so the second resolution appears to be directed toward the question
of whether the Board is going to mandate Golden Valley pay additional costs (i.e. a user's fee)for
dispatch services. No other city currently dispatched by the County pays, or had to pay, fees
above hardware/staff costs directly related to the transition process.
For the last several months, Police and Fire personnel have been working regularly with Sheriff's
Office personnel at the current dispatch tower to provide information and make decisions related
to the transition. At this point, Sheriff's Office dispatch personnel have indicated they will be
ready for Golden Valley to transition several months before the anticipated completion of the
new facility. In fact, they have indicated they prefer Golden Valley transition well before the new
facility opens, as they do not want to transition their entire current facility to the new building
and transition Golden Valley at the same time.
If Golden Valley gives Edina notice that it will be terminating our contract prior to the end of
2014, and presuming the City does not have to pay a service fee for County dispatch services,
there would be about a $12,000 per month savings for every month the City isn't with Edina in
2014. Conversely, if the City has to wait until the Sheriff's Office completes the main transition to
the new facility, it will likely be into 2015 and the City would have to budget for Edina dispatch in
2015 - currently not planned.
It is imperative that Council approach the County Board to get on an agenda at a future meeting
and get the answers to two questions: 1) Will the Board authorize an early transition if the
Sheriff's Office is ready and wanting our transition to occur prior to the opening of the new
facility?; and 2) Will there be a proposed user's fee above and beyond the already anticipated
and mentioned hardware/staff transition costs?
If the County Board were to indicate they intend to charge Golden Valley a user's fee,then the
Council will have to decide if it wants to pay for services already charged to residents via property
taxes and that no other city is being charged. If the City is told a user fee will be imposed and that
is not desirable, the City would have to negotiate another contract for dispatch services with
Edina for continued service beyond 2014.

5. Residential Property Maintenance Code
Prepared By
Mark Kuhnly, Fire Chief
Summary
Staff will be in attendance to make a presentation and discuss the Residential Property
Maintenance Code, rental licensing and the Safer Tenant and Renters (STAR) program.
The current Property Maintenance Code and STAR program have been in existence since 2006.
Staff has identified sections of the Property Maintenance Code and portions of the STAR program
for Council to consider amending. One consideration is amending the current Property
Maintenance Code and adopting the International Property Maintenance Code (iPMCj. The IPMC
is developed by the International Code Council that encompasses the building, fire and
mechanical codes currently adopted by the City. The STAR program currently applies to rental
properties with three or more units. The program could be expanded to all rental properties.

Prepared By
Cheryl Weiler, Communications Manager
Summary
On December 10, City communications staff presented results from surveying 16 metro area
cities to determine best practices for social media policies and implementation. Staff also
presented draft policies to serve as the starting point for Golden Valley's social media efforts.
The proposed Golden Valley social media program will strengthen the City's established image,
provide additional channels for communicating with citizens, and be positioned to grow and
evolve to meet the changing needs of the City and its stakeholders.
As requested by the City Council, staff is returning for further discussion of the proposals,
including draft social media policies for employees and elected officials, so newly elected Council
members can provide input.

7. Five Cities Senior Transportation Program
Prepared By
Thomas Burt, City Manager
Summary
In 1985, the five cities of Brooklyn Center, Crystal, Golden Valley, New Hope, and Robbinsdale
entered into a Joint Powers Agreement to sponsor a program offering transportation to their adult
population age 60 and older. It had been determined that the population, age 60 and older, had
unmet transportation needs and that combining resources for the purpose of providing a senior
transportation program on a limited basis would benefit each city.
The purpose of the program was to provide efficient, reliable, cost-effective transportation to
grocery stores, discount centers, pharmacies, senior dining and city-sponsored senior activities. It
was to complement existing transportation programs provided by other area agencies, specifically
medical transportation. The Five Cities Senior Transportation Program supported independence,
self-sufficiency, and socialization for the five cities' older residents.
The actual program started in October 1986. It was decided to contract with transportation
agencies rather than purchasing vehicles. The contract was held by Laidlaw/First Student from
1986-2010. PRISM/PRISM Express was awarded the contract in 2011. The funding for the program
is equally divided among the 5 Cities. The annual cost to Golden Valley in 2012 was $13,700. The
City uses CDBG funds for this program.
With the closing of PRISM Express in November 2013, the 5 Cities are taking time to evaluate and
explore the different options. These options include looking at what other bus services are
available for individuals and Five Cities Senior Transportation Program to use and whether or not
the Five Cities Senior Transportation Program is still needed and should be continued. The
Executive Committee of the program will be meeting to review the different options and make a
decision on the future of the Five Cities Senior Transportation Program.
The Five Cities Senior Transportation Program has seen a decline in riders over the years. In 2012,
Five Cities Transportation served 474 individuals down from 697 served in 1997. Approximately 22
Golden Valley residents were served on a monthly basis in 2013. Reasons for the decline have
been discussed: senior apartment complexes are offering transportation to residents, more
women have driver's licenses and are keeping their cars longer, and people are more independent
or rely on friends or family members to meet their transportation needs.
All current riders of the Five Cities Senior Transportation Program have been notified of the
changes. We also have given riders some information on alternatives services that are currently
available for them to purchase groceries and pharmaceutical needs. Please refer to the Sun Post
article attached.
In February,the executive board will be meeting and will make a final decision on disbanding Five Cities
Senior Transportation.

Five Cities service may reopen in new format
Executive Board makes no official decision in December meeting
The future of Five Cities Transportation,which shuttled west metro seniors to grocery stories, doctor
appointments, and so on, is still in flux after a Dec. 12 meeting of the organization's executive board.
Board members decided to wait until their next meeting, in February, to determine how the program will
continue after it lost the use of buses supplied by the PRISM social service agency in early October. PRISM
discontinued its own busing program due to budget constraints, making Five Cities, which leased its buses
from PRISM, a transportation service without any means of transport.
In the meantime, Robbinsdale Recreation Programs Manager Pam Schmitz will compile additional data
about ridership numbers, a history of the program and its goals, other services that could replace or
supplement those already provided by Five Cities, the results of a Hennepin County study on projected
ridership in the area, and budget figures.
An exact date in February for that meeting had not been set as of press time.
While nothing was formally decided at the Dec. 12 meeting, members were in general agreement that the
program will almost certainly not resume in its previous form.
When discussing the program, board members operated under the assumption that area seniors used Five
Cities' buses for two reasons: to get around when they would otherwise be unable, and to attend social
gatherings or simply socialize with other riders and the service's bus drivers. Robbinsdale Recreation
Assistant Sharon Laurel, for instance, mentioned that she had fielded calls from concerned riders who had
expressed how much they would miss chatting with the bus drivers.
At issue was whether Five Cities' service had been rendered largely redundant by other, similar services
and whether the organization's resources might be better spent on the "social" aspect of the program due to
declining ridership and increasingly costly subsidies for each ride.
Alternatives
Multiple board members mentioned Metro Mobility, which offers similar services to seniors with disabilities,
as an alternative. Also mentioned were proprietary grocery delivery and social outing services used by area
senior living facilities.
"Is it possible we've outlived our usefulness?" asked Brooklyn Center City Manager Curt Boganey.
Many on the executive board agreed that the program, which began in 1986, was created at a time when
many elderly women didn't drive and when many senior housing facilities offered few, if any, transportation
services or social outlets.
Robbinsdale City Manager Marcia Glick noted that her city's three senior housing facilities offer grocery
delivery services, and that fewer than five percent of residents there ride on Five Cities buses.
http://post.mnsun.com/2013/12/five-cities-service-may-reopen-new-format/ 1/10/2014
Sun Post � Five Cities service may reopen in new format Page 2 of 3
A letter addressed to Five Cities Transportation riders dated Oct. 31 also mentioned Store to Door, Gopher
Grocery, Coburns, and Lund's and Byerly's as potential replacement grocery services.
Laurel said, of the nine calls for service she had fielded about Five Cities since it ceased operating, six were
for medical purposes. Five Cities never provided medical service in the first place, one board member
pointed out, but Metro Mobility does.
The Five Cities schedule for Nov. 1-13 of this year also mentions Transit Link as a potential alternative.
Transit Link provides a similar"dial-a-ride" service and is wheelchair accessible.
Golden Valley City Manager Tom Burt said he thinks two thirds of affected seniors will find other services to
use.
Some board members said the relatively small number of calls their o�ces had received about the program
may indicate that former riders have already found alternative services.
Alternate means of social interaction for seniors were also discussed.
"The big thing that isn't there is that social (aspect)," Schmitz said, referring to the current status of the
organization. Schmitz later noted the importance of the social outlet inherent in the program when she
mentioned the Five Cities motto, "It's more than just a ride."
Robbinsdale Senior Commission member Dave Bjorkquist echoed that sentiment in a phone interview in
November, saying "Five Cities Transportation has almost billed itself as more than a ride, meaning that it
was an opportunity to meet other people, get out of the house, and to socialize a little bit. And I think there
were some people who got to know each other on the bus. That may be one of the things that will not be
replaced."
"If it's just that social need, we can easily fill that," said Kelly Mertes, Program Supervisor for Brooklyn
Center, at the Dec. 12 meeting.
Before the cessation of service, the program had hosted a "Brunch Bunch" program, wherein seniors would
take monthly trips to restaurants on Five Cities buses.
In a phone interview, Glick mentioned the "Out and AbouY' program, which buses seniors to plays and other
social events, as an alternative.
"To me, this Brunch Bunch activity could be an Out and About thing. You wouldn't need to have the Five
Cities bus system doing a Brunch Bunch. You could just have Out and About Brunch Bunch," she said.
Currently, Out and About trips are largely an out-of-pocket expense for riders, as opposed to the subsidized
rides provided by Five Cities. Instead of paying the highly-subsidized rates, Out and About riders would pay
the cost of the bus.
Subsidy concerns
While budget numbers fluctuate from year to year, each of the five city governments that make up the
program — Robbinsdale, Crystal, New Hope, Golden Valley, and Brooklyn Center—contributes an equal
share to the program's $90,000 annual budget, which was used to pay for the use of buses formerly
provided by PRISM.

Sun Post � Five Cities service may reopen in new format Page 3 of 3
The cities' contributed money is offset by nominal rider fares, and many cities use money from federal
"community development block grants"to fund their contributions. However, federal money and ridership
have both been decreasing over the past decade.
Glick said in a followup interview that Brooklyn Center has not used block grant money for a long time, and
that Robbinsdale and Golden Valley are no longer direct recipients of that money, either, having entered
together into a grant pool.
Instead, Robbinsdale uses a mixture of grant money and general fund money, and Golden Valley uses
general fund money exclusively.
New Hope City Manager Kirk McDonald said that Five Cities riders attend city council meetings to express
their appreciation for the program.
"Our council likes the program and they would probably find a way to fund it out of the general fund," he
said.
Because ridership has been steadily declining, thus providing less fare money to make up the difference, the
amount subsidized per ride has steadily increased.
In 2011, Schmitz said, the organization subsidized between $6.80 and $7.06 per ride. In 2012, the number
rose to between $7.37 and $7.62 subsidized per ride.
Similar numbers were unavailable for 2013, but from January to August of 2013, Five Cities spent$64,000
in total expenses and collected $9,600 in fares from 325 riders. Those riders accounted for a total of roughly
2500 one-way trips in that same time and approximately another 400 trips through November.
The number of riders has decreased considerably since the 1990s and early 2000s. According to documents
supplied by Schmitz, Five Cities served 793 people in 1995 and 747 people in 2001. Those two years were
both the two highest numbers in the historical data provided, however. In the intervening years, the program
served an average of 661 people.
"90,000 dollars, and we serve 325 people? That's not very good," said City Manager Burt.
"At what point do you say, `we can't do this anymore, the subsidy's too high'?" Burt asked, rhetorically.
Said Bjorkquist, who gauged the senior community's reaction at a recent Senior Commission meeting, "I
think there's a sense of sadness that we don't have it any more, but the realization of how expensive it had
become."
"They're not selfish," said Boganey of west metro seniors. "They're conscious of city taxes and how they're
being spent."
A letter explaining the current state of affairs and the reasoning behind it will be drafted by the Golden Valley
City Manager's office and sent to those affected by the discontinuation.
Laurel said she anticipates the phone to ring "off the hook" once the letter is sent out.
Replied Golden Valley Senior Citizens Coordinator Jeanne Fackler, "well, that's what we want: to know if
this program is going to be truly missed."
