2013 ANNUAL REPORT
GOLDEN VALLEY ENVIRONMENTAL COMMISSION
Prepared by Jim Stremel, Chair
April 2014
In accordance with Section 2.50, Subd. 4 of the Golden Valley City Code, the Golden Valley
Environmental Commission submits the following report of its 2013 activities, organized by the
Commission's duties and responsibilities.
Summary
The primary focus of the Environmental Commission during 2013 was completing its research
and making a recommendation to the City Council regarding a change to Section 10.32 of the
City Code (chicken keeping) and developing the framework for a Natural Resource Management
Plan to be completed in 2014. The Commission also received updates on the City's new
curbside recycling program.
At the monthly Commission meetings, program and project updates were routinely received
from staff. Updates provide the Commission with an opportunity to review and provide input to
staff from an environmental perspective, and to identify issues the Commission might want to
address.
Chickens
At the request of the City Council, in May 2012, the Environmental Commission began studying
the hobby of backyard chicken keeping. As part of the study, the Commission heard from
professionals who spoke on behalf of the benefits, drawbacks, wildlife impacts, and
enforceability of amending the City Code to allow residents to participate in the hobby.
After hearing testimony from many points of view and conducting individual research work,
Commissioners deliberated over the issue. As with any topic, both positive and negative aspects
of chicken keeping were identified. The challenge the Commissioners addressed was weighing
these factors against the greater environmental considerations for the City. In January 2013, on
a 4-3 vote,the Commission decided to recommend to the City Council a modification to
Section 10.32 of the City Code to allow the keeping of chickens.
Environmental Commission Chair Rich Baker presented the Commission's final report and
recommendation at the March 12, 2013 Golden Valley Council/Manager meeting. On June 16,
2013 the City Council approved the code revision to allow the keeping of chickens upon
meeting certain conditions and obtaining a license.
Since the approval of the code revision one license has been issued. There have been no issues
or complaints heard by staff.
Natural Resource Management Plan
In 2012, City staff provided guidance and assistance to students from the University of
Minnesota who completed a capstone project titled, Sustainable Natural Resource
Management in Golden Valley. The students presented their ideas and recommendations at a
joint meeting of the Environmental and Open Space and Recreation Commissions, City Council,
and staff. One of the recommendations included the development of a comprehensive natural
resource management plan. The Environmental Commission included this recommendation as
the top priority in its 2013 work plan.
On May 14, 2013 the City Council approved the Environmental Commission's work plan to
develop a Natural Resource Management Plan (NRMP) which will be incorporated into the
City's comprehensive plan during the next update. The NRMP will include objectives, policies,
and an implementation program identifying specific and achievable projects. Other important
components of the plan include:
• Identifying opportunities to provide natural resource education to residents and
property owners
• Converting the City's existing natural resource practices into formal policies
• Creating an inventory of City-owned open space parcels and rights-of-way and exploring
ways to improve the use and appearance of these properties
• Identifying partnerships and grant opportunities to help the City achieve its natural
resource objectives
During the last few months of 2013, the Environmental Commission and Open Space and
Recreation Commission worked jointly with a consultant, S.E.H., Inc., to provide direction and
develop a framework for the Natural Resource Management Plan. The Environmental
Commission will work with staff and the consultant to complete the plan in 2014.
Curbside Recycling
January 1, 2012 was the start of the City's new curbside recycling program. Following is an
update on program initiatives in 2013.
Recycling Tonnage
The amount of material collected in 2013 was 2,237.92 tons (4,475,840 pounds). This is
down 5.3% as compared to 2012. However, the tonnage in 2013 was up 13.9% over
2011 tonnage under the old recycling system. The City received $22,364.67 in revenue
sharing for 2013.
Multi-family/Commercial/Institutional Recycling
Currently, four properties participate in the program.
Mighty Tidy Day
A total of 549 vehicles came to drop off items at the annual Mighty Tidy Day at
Brookview Park. Participation in 2013 increased 12.5%over last year and tied the record
attendance back in 2008.
2
Fall Leaf Drop
Over the four days of the 2013 Fall Leaf Drop, 723 unique vehicles made 1,318 trips to
drop off leaves. This is an average of 1.8 trips per day per vehicle which is the same
average as last year. On Saturday, November 9, a single day record was set with 811
trips were made during the six hour event. To put this in perspective, 811 trips in six
hours is an average of 2.25 vehicles per minute for the entire six hours.
2013 Recycling Initiatives—Check-in
Have more residents sign up for the City's recycling updates email �istserv. The primary
method of advertising will be reminders in the City newsletter and website. As of today,
647 emails (some being City staff) are registered to receive updates.
UPDATE: As of January 6, 2014, 851 emails (some being City staff) are registered.
This is 31% increase in one year.
Mail a recycling informational flyer to all curbside recycling customers in early 2013. This
is done as part of the requirement from Hennepin County for recycling education
efforts.
UPDATE: This was completed in early 2013 and will be repeated in 2014.
Continue to evaluate the recycling in the Parks pilot program.
UPDATE:The program will be expanded in 2014 due to the success in 2013.
Provide more promotion on Hennepin County's A-to-Z Guide for Disposal, Choose to
Reuse Program, Recycle Half, and Fix-It Clinics.
UPDATE: More information was included online and in City Newsletter articles in
2013.

Date: March 21, 2014
To: Jeannine Clancy, Director of Public Works
From: Bert Tracy, Maintenance Manager
Mark Ray, PE, Street Maintenance Supervisor
Subject: On-Street Parking in Golden Valley
Background
From time to time, the City receives complaints from residents about vehicles parked on the
street during the winter and the impact it has on snow removal from the street. Generally, the
frustration is with the snow pile that is left where a vehicle was parked when plowing operations
occurred. The City has also received comments that are strictly focused on the negative impact
that parked vehicles have on plowing operations.
Method of Plowing
During snow events, and sometimes for minor snow events, the primary focus of the crews is to
keep the major City streets and hills passable for the general traffic and emergency vehicles. All
major City streets and priority hills have been identified and are mapped for the plow operators.
Attached to this memo is the major City street and priority hills route map of the City.
While some residents may feel that streets with hills are of special concern and should get more
attention than other roads, it is important to note that many of the hills are on residential streets
that serve relatively low volumes of traffic. On the other hand,the major City streets serve a
higher volume of traffic and some feel that therefore there is a higher exposure to risk. From a
street maintenance perspective, both major City streets and hills have their own unique
challenges. Based on weather and road conditions, and our goal is to get to those roads as
frequently as needed.
Parked Vehicles Impact on Winter Operations
Vehicles parked on the street create additional obstacles that plow operators must watch for and
navigate around while plowing. The challenge for plow drivers is to get as close to the parked
vehicle as possible to get as much of the street cleared, without coming into contact with the
vehicle.
Parked vehicles create the following challenges:
• Plow must maneuver around the parked vehicle on potentially slippery road conditions or
adverse weather.This can be especially challenging on hills.
• If a plow loses traction and slides down a hill, it is possible that they could come into
contact with a parked vehicle. Not only is this additional damage the City responsible for,
but the plow may be out of service for a while which means that City-wide plow
operations will take longer.
• On major City streets, the driver has to maneuver around parked vehicles while sharing
the space with other drivers.
• During peak travel periods, the ability of the plow to efficiently plow can be significantly
hindered by parked vehicles on major City streets.
• ,When vehicles are parked directly across from each other, it is sometimes impossible for
plows to get through, even on flat residential streets. This is especially problematic on cul-
de-sac streets where there is no other way to finish plowing the remainder of the street.
• Even if a parked vehicle is easily maneuvered around during a snow event, snow is still left
behind where the vehicle was. This remaining snow on the street poses a potential hazard
for vehicles operating normally on the street after the parked vehicle has left. It also
means that a plow truck has to make an otherwise not needed trip back to clean up the
spot.
Summary of Other City Ordinances
Below is a summary of what neighboring cities use for on-street parking restrictions.
• Crystal - No on-street parking year round between 2 am and 5 am. No on-street parking
after a snowfall of 1.5 inches or more until the street is plowed to the curb.
• Edina - No on-street parking between 1 am and 6 am from November 15t through
March 1st. No on-street parking after a snowfall of 1.5 inches or more until the street is
plowed to the curb.
• Minnetonka - No on-street parking year round between 2 am and 6 am.
• New Hope - No on-street parking year round between 2 am and 6 am. No on-street
parking after a snowfall of 1.5 inches or more until the street is plowed to the curb.
• Plymouth—No on-street parking year round between 2 am and 5 am. No on-street
parking after a snowfall of 2.5 inches or more until the street is plowed to the curb.
• Robbinsdale—On-street parking is prohibited any time there is a snowfall of 2 inches or
more until the street is plowed to the curb.
• St Louis Park—On-street parking is prohibited any time there is a snowfall of 3 inches or
more until the street is plowed to the curb.
Recommendation
Parked vehicles on the street during snowplow operations create challenges for snow plow
operations, regardless if the parked vehicle is on a hill, major City street, or residential road. This
issue is not unique to Golden Valley and neighboring cities have taken a variety of approaches to
address the issue. It is recommended that the City identify and evaluate options for a City-wide
on-street parking restriction.

4. Request by Wealshire of Bloomington -Amend General Land Use Plan Map and Zoning Map to
Allow Construction of Senior Care Development -9000 10th Avenue North
Prepared By
Mark W. Grimes, Community Development Director
Summary
Tom Wiskow is the president and CEO of Wealshire of Bloomington. He is also a resident of
Golden Valley. He is the developer of the Wellstead of Rogers (which he has sold) and the current
owner of Wealshire of Bloomington. He would like to construct a similar senior care development
at 900010th Avenue North. I am attaching a zoning map and general land use map indicating the
location.
He has been searching for a location in Golden Valley for the past year. He would like to find a
site of at least 10 acres. He has not found a site that is zoned for residential use or mixed use that
would meet the criteria for a senior care development. As an alternative, he has found a site at
900010th Avenue North that he believes would fit a senior care development providing both
Dementia/Alzheimer's care and senior assisted living apartments. However, the site is in an area
designated on the General Land Use Plan for Industrial uses and shown on the Zoning Map as
zoned Industrial.
Mr. Wiskow believes that there is a significant need for this type of housing in Golden Valley.
Staff does agree that there is such a need. However, is locating housing in the midst of an area
that is primarily used for warehouses, industrial uses and offices the proper location? Would
there be an adverse impact on existing uses in the area? Mr. Wiskow has told me that he believes
the site would work because of its location close to TH 169 and TH 55. He is not worried about
the impact of the surrounding uses on the senior care development because the senior residents
spend most of their time in the buildings and there is more than adequate acreage to create a
campus setting.
Mr. Wiskow is asking that the City Council direct staff to consider the change in general land use plan
map to high density residential for the property at 900010th Avenue North. If directed by the City
Council, the staff would submit this request to the Planning Commission for an informal public
hearing and recommendation to the City Council. If the City Council would approve the general land
use plan map change,the City could then consider a change to the zoning designation.
Mr. Wiskow does plan to attend the meeting on May 13 and will available to answer questions. The
website for Wealshire of Bloomington provides information about a similar senior care center that he
operates. The website is: www.wealshireofbloomin�ton.com.

TO: Mark Grimes
Community Development Director
City of Golden Valley
SUB1: Potential Wealshire of Golden Valley Development—900010�'Avenue North
Senior dementia/Aizheimer's Care Facility
Senior Assisted Living Care Facility
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity yesterday to continue our discussions of the Wealshire, LLC
potentially buiiding a state-of-the-art senior care development in Golden Valley.
As you are aware,we had attempted to purchase Paui Gonyea's 7.51 acres of land on the north frontage
road of highway 55, but unfortunately too many obstacles exist to allow this potential senior
development to be constructed within the next 2 to 3 years. As an alternative to this potential site,we
were informed recently of the possibility of our purchasing approximately 12.61 acres of land at 9000
10th Avenue North in Golden Valley.
Obviously,the Gonyea site would provide greater visibility than the 10`h Avenue North site, but
unfortunately this site only offers 7.51 acres of potential senior development. The 10th Avenue North
site comprises approximately 12.61 total acres,which includes an office/warehouse building on 8.36
acres of land,and an additional 4.25 acres of open and undeveloped land. The additional approximate
5.1 acres of land would allow for a larger and more prestigious senior development. My previous senior
care development in Rogers,called the Wealstead of Rogers,was constructed on approximately 9 acres
of land, and included 162 resident suites for dementia/Alzheimer's care, in addition to 66 assisted living
apartments, and a very impressive banquet facility.
We opened the Wellstead of Rogers on August 15, 1999,and this senior care campus was sold on
February 29, 2008 against my wishes. The Wellsted of Rogers is still considered to be the largest
dementia/Alzheimer's care facility in the country at 162 resident suites, but more importantly,the
Wellstead was considered to be the best dementia/Alzheimer's care facility in Minnesota. We also
earned the prestigious reputation for being the best dementia/Alzheimer's care facility in the country
during our management and ownership of this facility.
On August 15,2011,we opened the Wealshire of Bloomington,which today is a 137 resident
dementia/Alzheimer's specific care facility,that is rapidly becoming the"gold standard"for dementia
care in the State of Minnesota.
If we are successful in purchasing this 10th Avenue North site,in addition to�eceiving City of Golden
Valley approval,we would propose constructing the following senior development:
Page 2
Senior Dementia/Alzheimer's Care:
30 resident suites for level 1 dementia/Alzheimer's care
32 resident suites for level Z dementia/Alzheimer's care
30 resident suites for level 3 dementia/Alzheime�'s care
32 resident suites for level 4 dementia/Alzheimer's care
4 resident households of 14 resident suites each for behavioral dementia care (56 total suites)
NOTE: Total of 180 resident suites for dementia/Alzheimer's care—largest in the country
Senior Assisted Livin�Care:

Construction•
All proposed construction will replicate what we have constructed in both Rogers and Bloomington,
Minnesota. The construction code will be classified as A-1,as compared to A-2 construction. The
exteriors of the buildings will be very impressive,with a combination of stone, brick and stucco.
Senior Dementia/Alzheime►'s Care Facilities:
All dementia/Alzheimer's care facilities will be single story buildings with substantial underground
parking for staff, and the facility will be residential in appearance and function. All resident suites will be
spacious one-person suites,and to include in-floor heat and a bathroom with a shower in each resident
suite. Each resident household will include a large dining room,spa/whirlpool room,aviary,nursing
station, library,sky-lights, aquarium, electric fireplaces,and 3 different distinct decorative themes within
the household.
Each of the various dementia households will have access to a Town Square,which will include an ice
cream parlor, beauty salon, movie theater, pet shop,activity room, party room, aquarium and a chapel.
Each of the various households will have their own secured courtyard with walking paths,flower
planters,flower gardens, bar-b-cue grills,glider swings,and substantial patio furniture.
Senior Assisted Livin�Care Facilitv:
This 4 or 5 story assisted living care facility will offer spacious 1 BR and 2 BR apartments,with full
kitchens and bathroom with shower enclosures. We will not offer any small studio type apartments.
Page 3
Within the assisted living care facility will be a large dining room, nursing/physician station,party room,
card room, exercise room,spa/whirlpool bath, laundry facilities,massage parlor,chapel, aquarium,
beauty salon, and a library/computer room. Care provider services will be available on a 24/7 basis by
licensed nursing personnel to accommodate the care related requirements of the assisted living
residents.
The grounds surrounding the assisted living facility witl be spectacular. We will incorporate ponding
with fountains, walking paths with resting benches located around the facility,a gazebo,gas bar-b-cue
grill,outdoor patios with patio furniture,and a 9-hole miniature golf"putt-putt"course. The grounds
will include beautiful landscaping with flowers,shrubs,and from 80-120 trees and evergreens.
The exterior of the whole senior care campus will resemble a well-manicured country club,similar to
what the Golden Valley Country Club offers its membership.
General Information
In a perfect world,and upon receipt of all necessary City of Golden Valley approvals,in addition to
successfully negotiating the purchase of the property,we would like to demolish the existing building on
the site to accommodate a May 1,2015 construction commencement. We anticipate total site
construction to be completed in two phases,and the first phase of construction to open on June 1,
2016.
We would greatly appreciate the City of Golden Valley Officials to view the following two websites:
Wellstead of Rogers: www.wellsteadofro�ers.com
Wealshire of Bloomington: www.wealshireofb�oominaton.com
We were informed that the City of Golden Valley is very interested in attaining more and improved
senior living care facilities in Golden VaUey to allow the Golden Valley seniors to remain in Golden Valley
as compared to moving to other suburbs to obtain such quality senior living options and care. If this is
true,the Wealshire of Golden Valley would provide the senior residents of Golden Valley the
opportunity to remain in Golden Valley, in addition to being able to live with pride and dignity.
To accomplish this objective, we must work effectively together, and if so, I assure you this proposed
Wealshire of Golden Valley Senior Care Campus will be the envy of every Twin City Suburb.
1 look forward to our scheduled meeting of Tuesday,April 22,2014 at 11:00 AM.

5. Lot Width Definitions
Prepared By
Jason Zimmerman, City Planner
Summary
Through the review of a recent subdivision application, it has been brought to the attention of
the Planning Staff that a discrepancy exists between tanguage in Chapter 11 (the Zoning Code)
and Chapter 12 (the Subdivision Code). Until the issue is resolved with direction from City
Council, Staff is unable to confidently proceed with the processing of a subset of subdivision
applications.
The issue concerns lot width,the definition of which differs between the Zoning Code and the
Subdivision Code. The Zoning Code defines Iot width as the mean, or average, width of the lot.
The Subdivision Code defines Iot width as the distance between the side lot lines as measured at
the front yard setback line in R-1 and R-2 zoning districts or the front property line in other zoning
districts.
For regular, rectangular lots, these widths are the same. For more unusually shaped lots, the
widths as defined under the two sections of code may be quite different. Since the ability to
subdivide a property depends, in part, on if the newly created lots meet the dimensional
requirements of the zoning district, the interpretation of lot width is critical to determining
whether or not a property can be subdivided.
Staff will present a series of diagrams to demonstrate the issues this conflict raises and will
suggest changes to the code text that could potentially resolve the situation.

6. Planning Department Neighborhood Meeting Policy
Prepared By
Jason Zimmerman, City Planner
Summary
Responding to direction from the Council, Staff has researched the neighborhood meeting
policies of other local communities and has drafted a new policy for Golden Valley that requires
neighborhood meetings for Conditional Use Permit, Planned Unit Development, subdivision, and
rezoning applications when the property is located within or adjacent to a residential zoning
district.
Neighborhood meetings would be held after an application has been filed but prior to an informal
public hearing at the Planning Commission. Notifications would be sent by the Applicant to
property owners within the same notification distance as required under the requirements of
Chapter 11 of the City Code. The Applicant would host the meeting and make the presentation; a
City representative may be present to observe and to answer questions about policy or process.
A copy of the notification would need to be submitted to the Planning Department, members of
the Planning Commission, and members of the City Council prior to the meeting and a summary
of the meeting and a copy of the sign-in sheet would need to be submitted to the Planning
Department after the meeting.
