Mr. Norman Abramson, 212 Sunnyridge Circle, said he submitted one of the petitions. He
read state statute 426.355 and said he felt it did not bar existing applications from the
moratorium. He said he felt it would be silly to pass an application and later deem it should
not have been passed. He encouraged Council to get an objective written legal opinion
whether the moratorium could extend to existing applications.
Ms. Ann Cooper, 316 Meander, said she lives in Golden Valley because of the great
neighborhoods. She said she felt that the City values trees but added with the current
construction practices the trees are no longer being taken care of. She said she felt some of
the houses being built were not keeping with the architecture of the neighborhoods. She said
the Council has an opportunity for stewardship and they should embrace it.
Ms. Lois Lenarz, 117 Paisley Lane, read the letter that she submitted earlier which became
part of the consent agenda under item 3L.
Mr. Robert Kolasa, 117 Paisley Lane, asked what guidelines were used for the moratorium
as to what percentage of a neighborhood can be subdivided and if the applications submitted
in last few days are a matter of public record.
Mr. Mark Dietz, 207 Sunnyridge Lane, said he submitted one of the petitions and stated the
neighbors are concerned about the trees in their neighborhood. He said he attended the
Planning Commission Meeting regarding 200 Meadow Lane where it was discussed that they
would wait to make a decision until after Council discussed the moratorium even though they
did not want to make the builder wait. He said he supports the strategic planning process.
Ms. Diane Richard, 217 Paisley Lane, said many residents have concerns about the wild life,
architectural style and water runoff in their neighborhood. She said she felt the Council
should create a brand for the City and would like everyone to vote in favor of the moratorium.
Mr. Mike Lougee, 206 Sunnyridge Lane, said he was late with his letter and he handed it to
the Clerk to be added to the record and added he would like a definite legal opinion.

Ms. Bonnie Hoffman, 4020 Roanoke Circle, asked if she could see the neighborhood map as
the item was discussed.
Ms. Eva Lund, 4010 Roanoke Circle, said she supports the moratorium and felt that
property rights should be monitored by the public entity. She said she would like these rights
to be protected and defined within relationships. She said the reason she submitted the
petition is she felt there should be an in-depth, thoughtful community process to identify the
neighborhoods and protecting their rights not only as individual but collectively.
Mary Jane Papas, 20 Ardmore Drive, said she speaking for herself and her husband. She
said she is not against development, just irresponsible development. She said she agrees
with what was said earlier and she appreciates the Council looking at a moratorium.

Regular Meeting of the
Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
A regular meeting of the Planning Commission was held at the Golden Valley City Hall,
Council Chambers, 7800 Golden Valley Road, Golden Valley, Minnesota, on Monday,
August 25, 2014. Chair Kluchka called the meeting to order at 7 pm.
Those present were Planning Commissioners Blum, Kluchka, Segelbaum and
Waldhauser. Also present was Planning Manager Jason Zimmerman and Administrative
Assistant Lisa Wittman. Commissioners Baker and Cera were absent.
1. Approval of Minutes
July 14, 2014, Regular Planning Commission Meeting
July 28, 2014, Regular Planning Commission Meeting
Segelbaum referred to page 11 of the July 14 minutes and asked if it was him, or
someone else, who questioned how the Golden Valley Senior Living proposal would
affect Schuller's. He asked that it be clarified that a neighbor asked that question during
the public hearing. Segelbaum referred to page 14 of the July 14 minutes and noted that
his first name, rather than his last, was used in the third paragraph.
MOVED by Segelbaum, seconded by Waldhauser and motion carried unanimously to
approve the July 14, 2014, and the July 28, 2014, minutes with the above noted
corrections.
2. Informal Public Hearing — Minor Subdivision Amendment— 221 Sunnyridge
Lane— Kate's Woods — SU08-11
Applicant: David Knaeble
Address: 221 Sunnyridge Lane
Purpose: To revise the interior lot line of the recently approved Preliminary Plat.
Zimmerman stated that the Preliminary Plat for the subdivision of 221 Sunnyridge Lane was
approved by the City Council on July 15. At that same meeting, the lot width definition was
amended, and is now in effect so the applicant is proposing a revision to the interior lot line
to improve the shape of both of the lots. He explained that the applicant is proposing to call
the interior lot line a side yard property line instead of a rear yard property line, and that staff
would like the Planning Commission to interpret the language in the Zoning Code to help
determine if it should be considered a side or rear lot line. He referred to a site plan of the
property and noted that that there is a deck on the existing house that must be removed or
modified in order to conform to the Zoning Code requirements. He stated that if the lot line is
determined to be a rear lot line, staff recommends denial of the revision as the proposed
subdivision would be in conflict with the requirements of the zoning district. If the lot line is
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
Page 2
determined to be a side lot line, staff recommends approval subject to the conditions
recommended by Planning and Engineering.
Waldhauser asked how the lot depth is calculated since that is what is used to determine
the rear setback. Zimmerman stated that the rear yard setback requirement is 20% of the
average lot depth.
Kluchka asked why the interpretation issue couldn't be addressed during the final platting
process. Zimmerman stated that the City Attorney thought that the proposed change was
significant enough, and the Zoning Code is ambiguous enough, that it should be brought
back to the Planning Commission for review. Kluchka questioned if the plan could be
modified slightly to not be so extreme with either the side yard setback or rear yard setback
location.
Peter Knaeble, Applicant, handed out additional plans and stated that his intent is to rebuild
or modify the existing deck to keep it out of the setback areas. He stated that the approved
preliminary plat has really crooked property lines, and he clearly heard from the Planning
Commission and the City Council that they would like that line to be straightened out. He
stated that the only practical way to do this subdivision without a variance is to call the
interior lot line a side yard property line, rather than a rear yard property line. He added that
calling that property line a side yard property line will also allow the existing home to remain,
which is a goal of the City Council. He showed examples of similar subdivisions, and
discussed the side yard property lines, and rear yard property lines in those examples. He
stated that when he first started considering this proposal he was told that there could be a
variable rear yard setback line. He added that on issues of ordinance ambiguity, the
common court precedent is to interpret it to the advantage of the landowner.
Kluchka opened the public hearing. Seeing and hearing no one wishing to comment,
Kluchka closed the public hearing.
Blum referred to the site plan and note that the property line in question seems to bend at
the back corner of the house, so the other properties the applicant referred to are a bit
different than the subject property.
Waldhauser stated that if the lot had been split without the existing house on it, the interior
lot line would have been considered to be a side yard lot line, so it doesn't seem logical to
call it a rear yard lot line at this point. She said this new proposal is an improvement over the
other options, and is preserving the existing house. She said she thinks the Planning
Commission would mostly be in favor of straightening out the lot line.
Segelbaum said the property line in questions looks like a rear lot line. He agreed that if the
house were not there, it would be a different story, but he thinks the intent of the Code is to
have unbuilt property in back of the house. He said he also agreed that the Planning
Commission wanted the lot to not be such an odd shape, but he wishes there were another
way to draw the property line without necessitating a variance.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
Page 3
Kluchka questioned if it is fair to say that the Planning Commission asked that the property
line be straightened, when they didn't know about the rear yard versus side yard issue.
Waldhauser stated that the lot line could be re-drawn and there would not be a backyard on
Lot 1 at all.
Segelbaum said he is concerned about setting a precedent in how the Planning
Commission interprets this issue, and how future proposals would use it going forward.
Kluchka said he is not in agreement with calling the interior lot line a rear yard property line.
Blum agreed, and reiterated that this proposal is not like the pie shaped examples they were
shown, because they clearly start as two parallel side lot lines.
MOVED by Segelbaum, seconded by Blum and motion carried 3 to 1 to recommend denial
of the preliminary plat amendment. Commissioner Waldhauser voted no.
3. Informal Public Hearing — Conditional Use Permit—601 Boone Avenue North
—TruStone Financial — CU-137
Applicant: TruStone Financial
Address: 601 Boone Avenue North
Purpose: To allow the applicant to operate a new credit union with three drive-
thru lanes in the Commercial zoning district.
Zimmerman stated that the applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) in
order to operate a new credit union with three drive-thru lanes. He noted that a CUP was
approved for this location in 2008, but the project was not constructed, so a new CUP is
now required. He referred to a site plan and explained the applicants request to construct
a one-story building with three drive-thru lanes located on the southeast corner of the
building. He stated that 19 parking spaces are required, and the applicant is proposing 31
spaces. He added that based on the review of the application, and the evaluation of the
factors listed in the Zoning Code, staff is recommending approval of the proposed CUP.
Kluchka asked if there are any material differences between this proposal and the
proposal approved in 2008. Zimmerman stated that the building is slightly smaller in this
proposal.
Waldhauser asked if conditions could be added regarding landscaping and drainage.
Zimmerman stated that Conditional Use Permits really only consider the land use.
Waldhauser noted that there seems to be a lot of signage proposed. Zimmerman stated
that they will be required to follow the City's sign code requirements.
Kluchka asked about snow storage on the site. Zimmerman suggested the applicant
address that issue, but he assumes snow would be stored on the south side of the site.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
Page 4
Segelbaum noted that the first finding is the demonstrated need for the proposed use. He
asked if that is pertaining only to the drive-thru windows, or the entire use. Zimmerman
said it pertains to the entire use.
Sean Raboin, HTG Architects, stated that the proposed new building will be slightly
smaller than the one proposed in 2008. He stated that this should be a good fit, and a
nice use for this property. He referred to the question regarding snow storage and stated
that snow will be stored on the north part of the site, or it will be hauled off-site.
Waldhauser asked if the applicant feels that they need as much parking as they are
proposing. Raboin said yes, and added that this will be a very busy location.
Segelbaum asked why they need to have three drive-thru lanes. Raboin stated that 10
years ago four or five drive-thru lanes was typical, but now banks like to have two drive-
up windows and one drive-up ATM.
Blum asked how the parking at this property compares with the parking at their current
location. Raboin stated that they have more parking at their current facility, but it is a
much larger building.
Segelbaum asked if the applicant will continue to use their existing facility. Raboin said
no.
Kluchka asked if the timing of this project is related to the Douglas Drive reconstruction
project. Raboin said he didn't know, but he thinks the economy has played a part as well.
Kluchka opened the public hearing.
Steve Schmidgall, 6534 Olympia Street, said he hopes there will be very little EIFS used
and if so, not at grade, so it will continue to look good.
Seeing and hearing no one else wishing to comment, Kluchka closed the public hearing.
Kluchka said he knows this will be a busy location. He suggested that the applicant bring
elevations and a material list to the City Council meeting.
Segelbaum stated that more drive-thru lanes would also mean fewer cars stacking.
Waldhauser said the proposal looks reasonable. She said she hopes some landscaping
could be done along Highway 55, and that run-off from the parking lot could be captured
in rain gardens, or some other system.
MOVED by Blum, seconded by Waldhauser and motion carried unanimously to
recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit at 601 Boone Avenue North to allow
a credit union with three drive-thru lanes in the Commercial zoning district subject to the
following findings and conditions:
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
Page 5
Findings:
1. TruStone will be relocating from their current location at 6500 Olson Memorial
Highway and will likely maintain if not grow their existing base of customers.
2. A financial institution is consistent with the Commercial designation of this property
on the General Land Use Plan Map.
3. Staff anticipates the newly constructed building would not have a negative impact on
the surrounding properties. In fact, the addition of a quality building to the vacant site
is anticipated to have a positive effect.
4. As part of the original submission in 2008, a traffic study was done for this use and
anticipated no concerns. Since this proposal is a slightly scaled back version of the
original plan, Staff does not expect any negative traffic impacts to the surrounding
areas.
5. The proposed use would generate a minor increase in the number of employees at
the location.
6. The proposed use is not anticipated to cause an increase in noise levels.
7. There would be some pollution caused by the idling of vehicles waiting to be served
in the drive-thru lanes. Due to the surrounding land uses and the proximity to
Highway 55, this increase would not be significant.
8. The proposed use is not anticipated to attract pests.
9. Based on the site plans submitted and the architectural design of other TruStone
Financial buildings that will be used as models for this structure, the visual quality of
the property will be enhanced.
10.Staff does not anticipate any other negative effects of the proposed use. The
location is a commercial area with good access that can handle any additional traffic.
Conditions:
1. The plans by HTG Architects submitted on July 10, 2014, shall become a part of this
approval.
2. The recommendations and requirements outlined in the memo from Fire Chief John
Crelly to Jason Zimmerman, Planning Manager, dated August 18, 2014, shall
become part of this approval.
3. A bicycle rack shall be added to the property providing for a minimum of four spaces.
4. All signage must meet the requirements of the City's Sign Code (Section 4.20).
5. This approval is subject to all other state, federal, and local ordinances, regulations,
or laws with authority over this development.
4. Informal Public Hearing — Final Plan Review— Planned Unit Development
(PUD) — Carousel Automobiles (Porsche Dealership) PUD #95, Amendment#3
Applicant: Twin Cities Automotive (Porsche)
Address: 9191 and 9393 Wayzata Blvd,
Purpose: To construct a new Porsche facility on the west side of the property.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
Page 6
Zimmerman stated that the Preliminary PUD plan for this proposal was approved by the City
Council in July, and the applicant is now starting the Final PUD approval process. He
referred to a site plan and explained the applicant's request to modify the existing parking
area and to construct a new Porsche of Minneapolis building located to the west of the
existing Audi building. He stated that since the Preliminary Plan stage the applicant has
made slight modifications to the parking lot layout and the number of parking spaces.
They've also made adjustments to the outdoor lighting levels. He discussed the design of
the building and stated that it meets the setback requirements of the underlying Commercial
zoning district, and there will be no change in the amount of impervious surface because
the new building will replace an existing paved area.
Zimmerman discussed parking on the site. He stated that the current number of parking
spaces on the site is 633 spaces. The applicant is proposing to reduce the number of
parking spaces to 557 which is a reduction of 76 spaces overall. The Preliminary PUD plan
reduced the parking by 64 spaces. He stated that the applicant is also proposing 37 parking
spaces that would encroach approximately five feet into the front yard setback, and
approximately 34 display spaces that would fall entirely within the 35 foot front yard setback
area along Wayzata Boulevard.
Waldhauser questioned if condition #5 in Zimmerman's staff report regarding the relocation
of the parking spaces along the south portion of the lot near the proposed building, should
be removed. Zimmerman said yes, condition #5 from his memo should be removed.
Waldhauser asked if the triangular shaped, landscaped island shown on the plans is new.
Nguyen Hoang, Baker Associates, 150 South Fifth Street, Architect for the project, said that
landscape island is not new and was shown on the preliminary plans.
Kluchka asked about snow storage. Wayne Pisinski, Twin Cities Automotive, Applicant,
stated that they might melt the snow on-site.
Blum asked what they did to address the lighting on the site. Pisinski said they switched to
LED lighting. Hoang added that the raised the light poles as well to provide more even
lighting.
Kluchka opened the public hearing. Seeing and hearing no one wishing to comment,
Kluchka closed the public hearing.
MOVED by Waldhauser, seconded by Segelbaum and motion carried unanimously to
recommend approval of the Final PUD Plan for PUD #95, Amendment #3, Carousel
Automobiles subject to the following findings and conditions:
Findin s:
1. The PUD plan is tailored to the specific characteristics of the site and achieves a
higher quality of site planning and design than generally expected under
conventional provisions of the ordinance.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
Page 7
2. The PUD plan preserves and protects substantial desirable portions of the site's
characteristics, open space and sensitive environmental features including steep
slopes, trees, scenic views, creeks, wetlands, and open waters.
3. The PUD plan includes efficient and effective use (which includes preservation) of
the land.
4. The PUD Plan results in development compatible with adjacent uses and is
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and redevelopment plans and goals.
5. The PUD plan is consistent with preserving and improving the general health, safety
and general welfare of the people of the City.
6. The PUD plan meets the PUD Intent and Purpose provision and all other PUD
ordinance provisions.

July 10, 2014, shall become a part of this approval.
2. The recommendations and requirements outlined in the memo from the Fire

shall become a part of this approval.
3. The recommendations and requirements outlined in the memo from the

2014, shall become a part of this approval.
4. Parking in the lot south of Wayzata Boulevard shall be limited to inventory
vehicles. Employee parking in this area will not be permitted.
5. All signage must meet the requirements of the City's Sign Code (Section 4.20).
6. This approval is subject to all other state, federal, and local ordinances,
regulations, or laws with authority over this development.
S. Informal Public Hearing — Preliminary Plan Review — Planned Unit
Development (PUD) — Golden Villas — PUD #118
Applicant: Golden Villas, LLC
Address: 9130 & 9220 Olson Memorial Highway
Purpose: To construct a seven-story, 162-unit apartment building.
Zimmerman stated that the applicant is proposing to develop a seven-story, 162 unit, market
rate apartment building on the 2.57 acre site. He stated that the applicant is also seeking
TIF assistance to help make the project financially feasible. He noted that 9130 Olson
Memorial Highway contains a small, one-story office building, and 9220 Olson Memorial
Highway contains the vacant bowling alley.
Zimmerman referred to a site plan and explained that the proposed new building will be
centrally located on the site. He stated that there will be two access points on Golden Valley
Road, and a sidewalk will be constructed along Golden Valley Road. He referred to the
parking on the site, and noted that the majority of the parking will be underground or
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
Page 8
enclosed on the ground floor level. There will be surface parking on three sides of the
building and a 20-foot wide fire drive aisle along the rear of the building. He discussed some
of the features and amenities including, eight units with individual entrances, secure bicycle
parking/storage, a pool, and terrace among others.
Zimmerman noted that staff is recommending approval of the Preliminary PUD plan subject
to the Engineering and Fire Department comments including: the relocation of parking out of
the right-of-way, additional work on the stormwater system, the number and location of fire
hydrants, and radio operability for emergency responders within the building.
Kluchka asked if the applicant would be installing the sidewalk along Golden Valley Road.
Zimmerman said yes.
Kluchka asked if parking is allowed on Golden Valley Road. Zimmerman said he wasn't
sure, but that he would find out.
Segelbaum asked for clarification on the number of stories. Zimmerman stated that there
are six stories above ground, and one underground.
Segelbaum noted that the nearby JHAP property has TIF financing and asked if that will
impact this proposal. Zimmerman said the properties are viewed independently.
Segelbaum referred to the number of parking spaces and the amount of impervious surface
and asked if it seems reasonable to allow less parking, but more impervious surface.
Zimmerman stated that if there are ways to redesign the 20-foot wide fire lane, there will be
more options to explore ways to reduce the amount of impervious surface.
Bill Stoddard, Applicant, stated that the former Tiburon project proposed for this site was six
levels. He decided to have one level of underground parking which made it possible to
reduce the height. He noted that on the street side of the building he is proposing some
direct access units. He discussed other senior living facilities that he had developed in
Florida and discussed several of the amenities he plans for this project including a day spa,
"car to go" options, and conservation measures including roof top solar and water
conservation efforts. He said he loves this gateway location, but he can't do the project
without TIF. He referred to a site plan and stated that the structural coverage on the site will
be 42.7% which includes the building, parking areas, and the fire lane.
Waldhauser asked Stoddard if he has done other project in this area, and who will be
managing this project once it is built. Stoddard said he has done some developments in
Minnetonka and in a few other locations. He said he will be interviewing management
companies to manage the property.
Segelbaum asked Stoddard if he will continue to own the property after the building is
constructed, or if he plans to sell it. Stoddard said it is his intent to keep the property for a
long time.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
Page 9
Segelbaum asked Stoddard if he thinks the proposed 223 parking will be adequate.
Stoddard said he believes that amount of parking will be adequate. He added that he can
add more parking spaces on the site if needed. He is also proposing bicycle and moped
spaces and he wants to really push the "car to go" option.
Blum asked if the moped spaces count in the overall number of parking spaces. Stoddard
said no, and added that he is proposing 20 outdoor scooter spaces. Zimmerman agreed
that the scooter spaces are viewed differently than regular parking spaces.
Segelbaum asked Stoddard about the timeline of this project. Stoddard said this project will
take approximately 13 months to construct, and he hopes to break ground next summer.
Kluchka said he is interested in a sidewalk connection to let pedestrians know they are
welcome to walk on the property, not just past it. He added that he would also like to see a
high level of design and quality in this gateway location. Stoddard said he typically uses 1/3
brick, 1/3 panels and 1/3 Hardie board siding, or something similar, to break up the look.
Kluchka opened the public hearing.
Kris Soder, Brookview Condominiums, said she is concerned about the traffic impacts from
this proposal.
Naomi Gardner, Brookview Condominiums, asked if this entire project consists of rental
units. Kluchka said yes.
Seeing and hearing no one else wishing to comment, Kluchka closed the public hearing.
Kluchka asked about the traffic issues. Zimmerman stated that a traffic study was done for
the previously approved Tiburon project, and that this proposal is not much different.
However, staff will continue to work with the applicant on ways to improve any traffic issues.
Segelbaum asked about the status of the Highway 55 exit ramp. Zimmerman stated that the
slip ramp reconstruction was part of the Tiburon proposal, but it is not part of this proposal.
Segelbaum said he thought the ramp project was part of the TIF district proposal.
Zimmerman stated that there is a redevelopment area that includes several parcels, but
each project is different.
Kluchka said he would like to see some intersection improvements, and he wants to see
what the additional traffic will do to the wait times, not just the capacity issues. Zimmerman
stated that the HRA will be reviewing this proposal. He added that one concern staff has is
that MnDOT could close the slip ramp. He said the City does not want all the traffic to have
to go to Boone Avenue.
Segelbaum asked if there will be a neighborhood meeting held. Zimmerman said yes, the
PUD process requires that a neighborhood meeting be held.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
August 25, 2014
Page 10
Kluchka suggested a condition be added regarding the review of design and materials.
Segelbaum said he would like to add that language stating that review should also occur on
the items not shown in the current plans in order to preserve the City's rights. Waldhauser
agreed that it is difficult to tell at this point if the applicant and Planning Commission are
aiming toward the same goals.

Minutes of a Regular Meeting of the
Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals
August 26, 2014
A regular meeting of the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals was held on Tuesday,
August 26, 2014, at City Hall, 7800 Golden Valley Road, Golden Valley, Minnesota. Chair
Johnson called the meeting to order at 7 pm.
Those present were Members Johnson, Maxwell, Nelson, Perich and Planning Commission
Representative Blum. Also present were Planning Manager Jason Zimmerman, and
Administrative Assistant Lisa Wittman.
I. Approval of Minutes — July 22, 2014 Regular Meeting
MOVED by Nelson, seconded by Perich and motion carried unanimously to approve the
July 22, 2014, minutes as submitted.
II. The Petition(s) are:
116 Ottawa Avenue South
Saw-Mehone Tebedge, Applicant
Request: Waiver from Section 11.21, Single Family Zoning District, Subd.
12(A)(3) Accessory Structure Side Yard Setback Requirements
• 2 ft. off of the required 5 ft. to a distance of 3 ft. at its closest point to the side
yard (south) property line.
Purpose: To allow for the construction of a detached garage.
Request: Waiver from Section 11.21, Single Family Zoning District, Subd.
12(A)(3) Accessory Structure Side Yard Setback Requirements
• 5 ft. off of the required 5 ft. to a distance of 0 ft. at its closest point to the rear
yard (southwest) property line.
Purpose: To allow for the construction of a detached garage.
Zimmerman referred to a survey of the property and explained the applicant's proposal
to construct a new detached garage in the south corner of the property. The proposed
garage would be 525 square feet in size and would be located 3 ft. from the side yard
property line and 0 ft. from the rear yard property line. He stated that the total amount of
accessory structure space on this property would be 999 square feet and that the
Single Family R-1 Zoning District allows 1,000 square feet of accessory structure
space.

Johnson said he understands that the applicant has told staff he would like to revise his
plans. Zimmerman said yes, and stated that the applicant would now like to propose a
garage addition to the front of his existing attached garage, similar to the next item on
the agenda.
Johnson asked the applicant if he is still interested in pursuing the variances he has
requested. Saw-Mehone Tebedge, Applicant, said he would like to pursue the
variances as he requested them, only if his other option is not acceptable. He reiterated
that he would like to do the exact same garage addition that is being proposed in the
next item on the agenda. Zimmerman suggested the Board change the order of the
agenda and discuss the next item before this request. The Board agreed to come back
to this item.
1411 Tyrol Trail
Carolyn Berman, Applicant
Request: Waiver from Section 11.21, Single Family Zoning District, Subd.
11(A)(3)(b) Side Yard Setback Requirements
• 6.45 ft. off of the required 12.5 ft. to a distance of 6.05 ft. at its closest point to
the side yard (east) property line.
Purpose: To allow for the construction of a garage addition.
Request: Waiver from Section 11.21, Single Family Zoning District, Subd.
11(A)(1) Front Yard Setback Requirements
• 18.8 ft. off of the required 35 ft. to a distance of 16.2 ft. at its closest point to
the front yard (south) property line.
Purpose: To allow for the construction of a garage addition.
Zimmerman referred to a site plan of the property and explained the applicant's request to
construct a garage addition with deck space above. He stated that the applicant currently
has a small, one-stall tuck-under garage and that the proposed new garage would be 6.05
ft. from the side yard property line, and 16.2 ft. from the front yard property line.
Perich asked if the applicant is proposing to build on top of the proposed 8 ft. extension
toward the front. Zimmerman said yes.
Blum asked Zimmerman if he has heard from the next door neighbor regarding this
proposal. Carolyn Berman, Applicant, handed out letters of support from four of her
neighbors. She stated that the existing garage is original to the home which was built in
1939. She said there really isn't anywhere else to expand on this property. She stated that
in this neighborhood there isn't a strong, definite visual line where the houses line up with
each other, so what she is proposing will have less of an impact, and will fit with the
Minutes of the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals
August 26, 2014
Page 3
character of the neighborhood. She stated that the original house is 23 ft. from the front
property line and because of the proposed projection of the garage addition, the before
and after will look very similar.
Nelson asked Berman if she had considered other options. Berman stated that with the
way the house is situated on this corner lot, what she is proposing is really her only choice.
Maxwell stated that the unique features of this property are the size, the fact that it is a
corner lot, and that there is currently only one garage stall. He asked if there are any other
unique features. Nelson added that the existing home is already located in the front
setback area.
Johnson opened the public hearing.
Jim Ladner, 1414 Tyrol Trail South, stated that the street curves quite a bit, and the
houses are not in one continuous line, but are staggered. He stated that two-stall garages
are common and that this is one of the only homes in the area without a two-stall garage.
He said it would be great to see the cars go in the garage, rather than on the driveway. He
added that there are other garages in the area located much closer to the property lines
than what the applicant is proposing, so what is being proposed will be consistent with
other properties. He urged the Board to grant the requested variances.
Seeing and hearing no one else wishing to comment, Johnson closed the public hearing.
Berman referred to a plan of the proposed garage addition and stated that one of the
reasons for coming forward with the addition is that she needs to be able to walk in front of
a car in order to get into the door, and there will need to be room to maneuver.
Nelson asked about the City's regulations regarding cars parked outside of a garage.
Zimmerman stated that there is no limit to the number of cars a person can have, but that
they are required to be parked on a paved surface.
Nelson stated that the Board tries to allow for two-stall garages when possible. She said
the issues in this case are being caused by the fact that this is a corner lot. She said she
would be in favor of granting the requested variances because it is in harmony with the
intent of the City's ordinances, it is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the
neighbors are in favor of it. She added that the unique circumstance in this case is where
the house was originally placed on the lot. Perich agreed that the proposal is reasonable.
Johnson questioned what the dimensions of the portion above the proposed garage would
be if it were built as living space, rather than deck space. Berman said she would not build
living space above the entire proposed garage space because it would block the bedroom
windows. Maxwell noted that if the space above the garage was entirely living space, the
increased setback and articulation requirements would probably apply and additional
variances would be needed.

Blum stated that the City hears a lot about maintaining the character of a neighborhood,
and is it pretty clear that most homes have a two-stall garage. He added that the property
would be more conforming with a two-stall garage.
MOVED by Maxwell, seconded by Perich and motion carried unanimously to approve the
following variances:
• 6.45 ft. off of the required 12.5 ft. to a distance of 6.05 ft. at its closest point to the
side yard (east) property line to allow for the construction of a garage addition.
• 18.8 ft. off of the required 35 ft. to a distance of 16.2 ft. at its closest point to the
front yard (south) property line to allow for the construction of a garage addition.
The Board continued its discussion of the variance requests for 116 Ottawa Avenue
South.
Tebedge, Applicant, said the variances he is requesting would allow for a garage to be
constructed in his back yard in order to store his collector cars, however, a garage in that
location affects his property more than any other property in the neighborhood. He
discussed the grade of his property and stated that his original plan was to extend the
garage forward closer to the front yard property line, but that would require a larger
variance. He stated that the house was built in 1946. It has four bedrooms and three
bathrooms with only an 18 ft. x 21 ft. two-stall garage without much room for storage, and
that for a house this big, the existing garage is not adequate. He noted that he could build
a detached garage in other locations, but they don't make sense.
Nelson asked how close the existing house is to the front property line. Tebedge said the
house is 35 ft. from the front property line and that he would like to change his variance
request in order to build an addition just like the previous proposal.
Nelson asked Tebedge if he could build a garage in the back yard (northwest corner).
Tebedge said yes, but then he would have a long driveway, and he might go over the
amount of impervious surface he is allowed to have. Maxwell asked how often the
"milestone" cars are taken out of the garage. Tebedge said they are not taken out at all.
Maxwell noted that the applicant could build a garage without a driveway. Tebedge said he
could also build a detached garage in the front yard, but that would look terrible, and it is
not what he wants to do. He reiterated that he wants to add on to the front of his existing
garage.
Johnson asked Tebedge if he would like the Board to vote on the variance requests he
submitted, or if he would like to pursue variances for a different proposal. Tebege stated
that if he can't do the garage addition toward the front, then he would have to come back
to the Board with his original request, but ultimately he would like to ask for the front yard
variances.

Maxwell suggested the Board discuss the proposal that the applicant really wants to
pursue. Zimmerman noted that the Board can discuss the applicant's new proposal;
however hearing notices mailed to the neighboring property owners were for the proposal
as shown on the agenda with the garage in the back yard. Perich agreed that the Board
should discuss the proposal that is before them.
Nelson asked Tebege if he could store his cars in another location. Tebege stated that it
costs a lot of money to store cars elsewhere.
Nelson said the Board is sensitive about granting front yard variances. She added that
two-stall garages are very typical in Golden Valley even with larger homes. Tebege stated
that there are many houses in his neighborhood that have three-stall garages.
Maxwell encouraged Tebege to think about any unique circumstances with his property in
order to justify the variance requests. Johnson added that he doesn't want to imply that
the Board will like another proposal better than this one. Maxwell suggested this item be
tabled rather than withdrawn.
MOVED by Maxwell, seconded by Perich and motion carried unanimously to table this
proposal to the September Board of Zoning Appeals meeting.

Motion by Vice-Chair Cook, second by Chair Buttress to approve the minutes.
Motion carried 8-0.
Introductions
Commissioners, guests, and staff introduced themselves for the benefit of the three new
Commissioners Martin, Phelps and Pristash. Former Commissioner Jordan was recognized
for his service and valuable contributions to the Human Rights Commission.
Review HRC Conversations May 8 Event
There were 31 total attendees, including Council Members, HRC Commissioners, panelists
and staff. This was the most well-attended HRC sponsored event to date. Commissioners
discussed the results of the survey completed by attendees which all had favorable
remarks about the event.
One of the comments on the survey concerned Crisis Intervention Training (CIT) for police
officers. Knauss read the email that was sent to the City Council Members from Police
Chief Carlson, following the May 8 event which states:
We have trained about 2/3 of our patrol officers in CIT. It is based on the nationally
recognized Memphis PD program, which is the only model used in law enforcement.
Human Rights Commission May 27,2014
Meeting Minutes Page 1 of 4
We have consistently sent 2-3 officers to the training each time we have seen it
offered. We have consciously had a running goal of getting every patrol officer
trained. The training is offered infrequently and is 40 hours, thus why we can only
send a couple at a time. We will continue to send officers until everyone has had the
basic course. There are also periodic refresher courses, which is our next goal. We
also periodically bring in trainers to our in-service training to discuss various topics
related to dealing with the mentally ill.
Conversely, we are currently researching offering an evening at the PD for autistic
kids, to acclimate them to police officers. This would hopefully help them reach out
to an officer should they ever need help. There is not a model for this type of event
but we figured with the rising numbers of autism, an attempt at familiarizing them to
officers is a good start even if we are doing it off the cuff.
HRC Conversations Event Planning — October 9 "Adults and Mental Illness"
• C. Knauss reported that Ken Barlow, KSTP Meteorologist, has confirmed that he will
be a speaker at the event.
• Commissioner Burris is awaiting a return call from Touchstone to see if they would
be able to provide a representative for the panel discussion.
• Commissioner Martin to contact Hugh Elwood at Oasis to see if they would be able
to provide a representative for the panel discussion.
• Commissioner Martin to contact NAMI to see if they will be able to provide a
representative for the panel discussion.
• Chair Buttress to contact a Walk-in Counseling Center to see if they would be able to
provide a representative for the panel discussion.
• Vice-Chair Cook reported that Representative Jim Ramstad would likely not be
available for the event.
• Council Member Snope to contact Senator Al or Frannie Franken to see if one of
them would be a speaker for the event (continued follow-up from April 22 meeting).
Other ideas for the October 9 event that were discussed was including a representative
from a Veterans organization on the panel to discuss discharged military personnel and
mental illness; having City police staff on the panel to talk about the mental illness calls
they are receiving.
It was the Commissions consensus that Ken Barlow, Touchstone, Oasis, Walk-in
Counseling, and NAMI representatives would be a well-rounded panel for this topic. The
Commission also agreed to host the event in the City Hall Council Chambers from 6:30-8
pm.
New Business — Election of Chair and Vice-Chair
In accordance with the HRC Bylaws and Board/Commission Guidelines, a Chair and Vice-
Chair are elected each May. The Chair and Vice-Chair serve one-year, non-consecutive
terms. It is the City's interpretation that since Chair Buttress was completing the term
vacated by Council Member Snope and only served four (4) months, he would be eligible to
serve as Chair again. This would also be the case with Vice-Chair Cook since he was
elected to serve the remaining four (4) months of former Vice-Chair Buttress' term when he
filled the Chair vacancy.

Board/Commission members by the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust on June
12, 2013. Commissioners were asked to view the DVD as part of their HRC responsibilities
and they would also be receiving the HRC Bylaws and Council Guidelines for

Valley. In order to keep the project on schedule, a special JWC meeting will need to be
scheduled to award this portion of the project. JWC members will look at the week of July
21 to set the meeting.
The chlorine feed and well startup portion of the project will be the final package to be
advertised for bid. This bid will include the New Hope well improvements. Once this phase
of the work is completed, all four wells will be operational.
Mitch Hoeft talked to the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) last week for an
update on the completion of the easement agreement process so that work on the Golden
Valley well can begin. The MPRB is working with its legal department on finalizing the
easement agreement.
Update on County Road 9 Project
The temporary bypass for the Crystal reservoir is fully operational. There may be a
possibility that the contractor will extend the work up to France Avenue. If that happens, the
bypass is in place to avoid any interruption of service. The contractor would have the
portion of the work affecting the Crystal water distribution system completed by August or
September 2014.
Update on Crystal Pump Station Generator Project
The generator has been loaded tested. Crystal is waiting on Xcel's schedule to shut down
power to the site so that the generator can be connected to the building. That work is

Approval of Regular Meeting Minutes —June 23, 2014
MOVED by Gitelis, seconded by Anderson, and the motion carried unanimously to approve
the minutes of the June 23, 2014 meeting as amended to correct Commission Johnson's
previous experience work experience.
Natural Resource Management Plan
Deric Deuschle and Veronica Anderson handed out an agenda which will serve as an
outline for developing the Natural Resource Management Plan (NRMP). A copy of the
agenda is on-file. The goal is to complete the plan by the end of the year.
Sample vision and goal statements were presented and discussed. Gitelis requested that
something be added to include the potential for dealing with invasive species. Deuschle
suggested that adding the term "adaptive management" to the goal statement would be
sufficient. Anderson felt that vision statement #2 might be the best if the word "enhance" is
included. Additionally, the word "developed" needs to be included before urban spaces.
Due to the absence of the other commissioners, a decision on the vision and goal
statements will be completed at the August meeting.
It was suggested that public feedback be solicited early on in the process. Eckman will
work with the Communications Department about setting up a place on the city's website
where feedback can be submitted; similar to how it was done for the chicken study. The
commission would also like to have the public submit pictures for the plan. Possible
submissions could come from some of the photos submitted to the City for the annual
photo contest.
New Proposals for Greener Practices
The commission was given a list of green initiatives that the City has completed or are
currently underway. Staff was asked to create a list of items, that the City is working on,
that can be tracked each year and included with the annual report.
A list of suggestions/ideas for greener practices, will be made by the commission,
throughout the year and will be included in the annual report. The list of suggestions is a
separate document.

L CALL TQ ORDER AND ROLL CALL
On Thursday,July 17,2014,at 8:34 a.m. in the Council Conference room at Golden Valley City Hall, Chair de
Lambert called to order the meeting of the Bassett Creek Watershed Management Commission(BCWMC)and
asked for roll call to be taken. The Cities of Minnetonka and Robbinsdale were absent from the roll call.
2.'CITIZENI FORUM ON NON-AGENDA ITEMS
New Hope resident Chuck Schmidt brought forward the status of the holding pond located at 36h Avenue North,
west of the Twin Cities West Railroad line,and south of Winnetka Village. He reported that the pond is full of silt
and sediment and that the outlet for the pond is 90%blocked with grass and logs. Mr. Schmidt noted that the design
of the outlet is probably not designed for best function because there isn't anything in place to catch the debris.He
requested a solution to the issues and suggested dredging the pond and to reduce sedimentation with rip-rap.
TAC representative Tom Mathisen provided comments and said that the City of Crystal can take a look at the pond.
Engineer Chandler asked if the pond is in-line with the North Branch of Bassett Creek. Mr.Mathisen said yes.
Commissioner Welch recommended that the Commission add a discussion of in-line sedimentation issues to a
future Commission meeting. There was discussion about referring the issue to the City and requesting that the City
update the Commission Administrator on the status.
Commissioner Mueller said that he agreed that having the Commission Administrator and City Engineer work to
figure out the project scope and roles of the City and Commission in this case. Commissioner Welch said that he
sees three categories of issues including: sediment when it is in the flow of the creek,other public facilities,and
areas of sedimentation that are on private properties. Mr.Asche added that the Joint Powers Agreement allows for
a lot of different ways to get such projects done and they don't need to be exclusively city projects or Commission
projects.The Commission agreed to refer the issue to the City and to have the Commission Administrator and the
City look at the issue and report back to the Commission.
3.AGENDA
Chair de Lambert added to the Consent Agenda the ordering of a public hearing for the Commission's September
18 meeting and the direction to staff to notice the hearing. Commissioner Black moved to approve the agenda as
amended. Commissioner McDonald Black seconded the motion.Upon a vote,the motion carried 7-0 [Cities of

5.BUSINESS
A. Status of Amendment to Joint Powers Agreement
Chair de Lambert announced that eight of the nine cities have signed the Joint Powers Agreement
Amendment.He reported that the ninth is the City of Minneapolis and from his understanding it is expected
that the City of Minneapolis will sign it. Golden Valley Mayor Shep Harris welcomed everyone to Golden
Valley City Hall and thanked them for coming to the meeting as well as for their time volunteering. He
thanked the City of Medicine Lake for its hard work on this issue of the JPA amendment and thanked the
other member cities' members and council people for their work.
Mayor Harris summarized the discussions with the Medicine Lake city council at the Medicine Lake city
council meeting and summarized the outcomes of the conversation. He reported that the cities of Plymouth
and Medicine Lake are going to continue with discussions regarding a possible study of Medicine Lake water
levels.
Mayor Harris also stated that Golden Valley has now looked reflectively at the JPA amendment process and
realized that its city council didn't stop to discuss issues that other BCWMC members were having.He
thanked Medicine Lake Mayor Holter for bringing issues to Golden Valley's attention. Mayor Harris said that
the Golden Valley city council will be conducting a work session with Mayor Holter in order to talk about the
issues and interests of Medicine Lake,including recreation. Mayor Harris stated that he sees this as an
opportunity to work better among cities and to hear and understand concerns of cities in the region. New
Hope Mayor Kathi Hemken stated that when a mayor is frustrated and is saying that no one is listening, it
either means that no one is listening or that the mayor isn't getting the answer the mayor wants. She said that
when a mayor isn't getting the answers he or she wants then the member cities should step up as a group and
find out how to help. Mayor Hemken said that as a group,this JPA organization can help Medicine Lake to
3
BCWMC July 17, 2014, Meeting Minutes
understand either that this organization ca fix this problem or help them to go someplace else for information
or help.
Medicine Lake Mayor Holter thanked everyone for helping the City of Medicine Lake.
Commissioner Welch expressed his appreciation that the BCWMC and its activities are now on the radar of
more people and that those people recognize the vested interested in those activities. He raised the topic of the
watershed's Next Generation Plan and said that the Commission has an ongoing planning process for the 10-
year plan,which is the place to discuss activities and priorities of the Commission. He said the Commission
can use all of the input it can get for the 10-year Plan,but he would be very anxious if separate dialogs are
started about it outside of the planning process. Commissioner Welch also provided an update on the status of
the City of Minneapolis' signing of the JPA amendment.
Chair de Lambert summarized the Commission's Next Generation Plan and the process the Commission is
currently undertaking with it.
Alternate Commissioner O'Toole noted that the Commission is a cooperative association of member cities
and if the member cities want to take the involvement up a level,then they can do so. He said that Plymouth,
Golden Valley, and New Hope make up about 80%of the residents and property values in the watershed and
if they want to step up their involvement in the leadership on issues affecting the watershed,then it is within
their power to do so, and he thinks that the 10-year Plan should reflect the input on these issues.
There were comments on the current 10-year plan and points raised about the need to be very specific with the
definition of recreation in the 10-year plan.
B. Consider Request from Golden Valley for Additional Sample Collections on Sweeney Lake for Blue
Green Algae
Engineer Chandler talked about the discovery of blue-green algae in Sweeney Lake and provided details on
the water samples,the lab tests and results and their significance. She summarized that this algae does not
always produce toxins,but sometimes does and so people should not be in contact with the water.Mr. Oliver
detailed the City of Golden Valley's communications to residents about the algae.
Engineer Chandler described the Commission's summer sampling schedule of Sweeney Lake.Mr. Oliver
talked about the conversations that the City of Golden Valley has had with the Commission Engineer and
Administrator regarding the collection of additional data on Sweeney Lake this summer.
Commissioner Welch asked if the presence of blue-green algae is related to phosphorous and asked what
triggers the blooms. Commission Engineer Chandler went into detail about the lab results of the Sweeny Lake
samples from before the big rains in June compared to after and said that a hypothesis is that the phosphorous
that entered the lake from the rainfalls triggered the blooms.
Sweeney Lake resident Jeff Weber noted that the lake was clear before the big rains in June. He said that it
seems that the system isn't designed for the worst case scenarios such as the large rains, so the system needs
to be dramatically improved. Mr. Weber said that the residents want to use the lake, and if it is mandated to
stay out of the lake,then it should be stated as such and not left open to interpretation.
Resident Sharma Hanson provided comments and said that as she told the Sweeney Lake Association,she has
had some HAZMAT training and so is using a field test kit to test for the toxin Microcystin. She said that the
kit results show that the toxin is still present in low levels in little pockets in the lake although the levels in the
main pools of the lake are lower than 0.5,which she explained is an acceptable level for surface water
according to the World Health Organization.
4
BCWMC July 17, 2014, Meeting Minutes
Mr. Oliver said that the City of Golden Valley would appreciate it if she would share the data. There was
discussion of the procedure for determining which labs the Commission Engineer uses for processing the
samples.
Northwood Lake resident Laura Leonhardt said that Northwood Lake has had quite an algae bloom as well.
She said she has seen people out on the lake kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding and she is concerned
about the possible presence of blue-green algae.
Sweeney Lake Resident Christy Lueck commented that she has lived on the lake for 40 years and in that time
the lake has never been this bad for this long. She said that she is highly concerned and appreciates anything
that the Commission can do to help.
Ms. Hanson mentioned a citizen program through the University of Nebraska in which the volunteers use kits
to test for blue-green algae. She said that an idea for the Commission for next year is to buy such kits and
have citizens monitor for the algae. The Commission directed Administrator Jester to look into it.
Commissioner Black moved to approve the request from Golden Valley for funds in the amount of$1,100 for
the additional sample collection and toxin analysis. Commissioner Elder seconded the motion.Commissioner
Mueller asked where the funds would come from in the Commission's budget. Engineer Chandler noted that
the Administrator recommended the funds come from the Commission's Surveys and Studies fund.
Commissioner Welch asked if allocating these funds would mean that something else would no longer be able
to get done. Commission Engineer Chandler responded"no". There was a short discussion about the
additional sampling in July and August. Mr. Oliver said more sampling in the end of September may be
warranted but at this point that decision is premature.
Upon a vote,the motion carried 7-0 [Cities of Minnetonka and Robbinsdale absent from vote].
Commissioner Welch wanted to know if the Commission would know if the blue-green algae blooms were
occurring on Northwood Lake. Engineer Chandler said the Commission is not monitoring Northwood Lake
this summer and would have no data on algae. She said if the Commission wants something similar done on
Northwood Lake such as the sampling on Sweeney Lake,the cost would be similar to the described cost of
the additional sampling of Sweeney Lake.
There was discussion of getting a test kit to the CAMP volunteer for Northwood Lake to sample for the blue-
green algae toxin in order to see if additional analysis is needed. Commissioner Elder said that he would talk
to the City of New Hope about the City covering the cost of the kit. There was also discussion about bringing
in an expert to present to the Commission information on algae.
Commissioner McDonald Black said that blue-green algae is a major issue and suggested that the
Commission develop a plan to address it such as a special committee or task force. TAC member Erick
Francis said the City of St. Louis Park is being contacted with questions about blue-green algae, and St. Louis
Park doesn't even have any recreational lakes. He recommended that the Commission and TAC meet to
specifically talk about how to approach this issue.
The Commission directed Administrator Jester and Engineer Chandler to contact other agencies in Minnesota
such as the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), Department of Health, Department of Natural
Resources to find out if they have a handle on where the blue-green algae is coming from and to report back
at a top level to the Commission. The Commission also directed staff to coordinate someone coming in and
educating the Commission on the issue at the August meeting.
C. Receive Update on Schaper Pond Diversion Project
5
BCWMC July 17, 2014, Meeting Minutes
Chair de Lambert reported that he,TAC member Jeff Oliver and Commission Engineer Len Kremer recently
met with MPCA Commissioners John Linc Stine and other MPCA staff regarding the Schaper Pond project.
He reported that there was a positive reaction to the proposed project. Mr. Oliver reminded the Commission
that it had authorized the feasibility report and final design for this project,and after the feasibility report was
completed there were some issues with the permitting of the project. He said that due to those issues the City
of Golden Valley opted not to pursue project design at that point.Mr. Oliver described the recent meeting on
the project.He said he was encouraged that the MPCA Commissioner committed to finding a solution with
the caveat that the City, Commission,and MPCA likely will not get everything they each are looking for and
that the solution needs to be able to be applied state-wide.He described a forum that will occur later in the
summer and said he'll keep the Commission apprised.
Mr. Oliver said that the City is waiting on a proposal for the design of the project and that the Commission
will see the proposed agreement at the next Commission meeting.He said that he hopes that the project will
be built this year.
D. Update on Next Generation Watershed Management Plan Development

Project
Commissioner Welch reported that the 2012 Main Stem Restoration Project in Wirth Park has been delayed
due to a delay in receiving a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. He summarized the project and
its funding and contracting. He said that he would provide an update again at next month's Commission
meeting. Commissioner Welch moved approval of requesting an extension of the Clean Water Fund grant for
the 2012 Main Stem Restoration Project. Commissioner Black seconded the motion. Upon a vote,the motion
carried 7-0 [Cities of Minnetonka and Robbinsdale absent from vote].

BCWMC July 17, 2014, Meeting Minutes
of a sewage discharge into Bassett Creek. Engineer Chandler said that she received confirmation
of the discharge into Bassett Creek,just downstream of the Medicine Lake Outlet at the manhole
on the east side of the creek. Engineer Chandler said that the report confirmed that the discharge
was 1,000 gallons over an 18-hour period due to the lift station being at capacity so everything
was backing up.
ii. Engineer Chandler said that the Commission Engineer asked the Metropolitan Council to perform
a trend analysis on the chloride results at the WOMP station. She said that the Met Council has
done the analysis,which shows that over the 10 to 12-year sample period there is an increasing
trend in chloride concentration. She said that the analysis appears to show a leveling off in more
recent years but more years of data are needed before a conclusive trend can be detected.
Engineer Chandler said that the Metropolitan Council says that a report will be coming.
iii. Engineer Chandler announced that Hennepin County started a water consortium and the first
meeting is on July 22. She said that she plans to attend the meeting in Administrator Jester's
absence.
iv. Engineer Chandler noted that the recent water level of Medicine Lake reached 889.44,which
perhaps wasn't even the peak level and which is the highest measured since 1991. She reported
that the recent water level on Sweeney Lake was the highest since 2005 and that the water
elevations at the structure at Wirth Lake Golf Course were still high but below the levels of the
10-year event.
V. Engineer Chandler said that she has the Department of Natural Resources June hydrology report
and can have staff forward it to Chair de Lambert.

RL: City of Golden Valley,Laurel Ponds Comprehensive Plan Amendment—
Administrative Review
Metropolitan Council Review File No. 20585-4
Metropolitan Council District 6
Dear Mr. Zimmerman:
The Metropolitan Council received the City's Laurel Ponds comprehensive plan amendment(CPA)on
September 9,2014. The CPA reguides approximately 3.3 acres of land related to a redevelopment project
that proposes 30 detached townhomes at approximately 9.1 units per acre. The CPA reguides 2.8 acres
from Mixed-Use to Medium-Low Residential and 0.5 acres from Low Density Residential to Medium-
Low Density Residential.
Council staff finds the CPA meets the Comprehensive Plan Amendment Administrative Review
Guidelines revised by the Council on July 28, 2010. The proposed CPA does not affect official forecasts
or the City's ability to accommodate its share of the region's affordable housing need. It does, however,
contribute to meeting the City's growth forecasts as well as life-cycle housing need. Therefore,the
Council will waive further review and action, and the City may place this CPA into effect.
In addition, staff offers the following advisory comments:
Water Supply (Lanya Ross, 651-602-1803)
The project area is located within the St. Louis Park Drinking Water Supply Management Area,
which has been designated as highly vulnerable to contamination by that city and the MN Department
of Health. Consult the St. Louis Park Wellhead Protection Plan to ensure development is consistent
with the city's drinking water protection strategies.
The Council encourages efforts to promote the efficient use of water to protect and enhance the
region's water supply sources. New development and redevelopment always provide opportunities to
implement new water conservation and stormwater management strategies as part of construction and
site landscaping. The Council's Conservation Toolbox and Stormwater Reuse Guide may be useful
tools to reduce per capita water demand. Both can be found on the Council's Water Supply Planning

B. In the event of such grievance arising there shall be no
suspension of operations but an earnest effort shall be made to resolve such
grievances in the manner prescribed by this Agreement.
C. It is recognized and accepted by the Union and the
Employer that the processing of grievances, as herein provided, is limited by the
job duties and responsibilities of the Employee and shall therefore be
accomplished during normal working hours only when consistent with such
Employee duties and responsibilities. The aggrieved Employee and the Union
Representative shall be allowed a reasonable amount of time without loss in pay
4
when a grievance is investigated and presented to the Employer during normal
working hours provided the Employee and the Union Representative have
notified and received prior approval from the designated supervisor who has
determined that such absence is reasonable and would not be detrimental to the
work programs of the Employer.
Section 2. Grievances, as defined by Section 1, shall be resolved in
conformance with the following procedure and all references to days in Steps 1-4
are calendar days:
Step 1. An Employee who feels that the City has misinterpreted or
misapplied any section of the Agreement in dealing with that
Employee, should discuss his/her claim with the Employee's
immediate supervisor. This should be done within fourteen (14)
calendar days from the occurrence of the believed violation or from
when the Employee became aware of it. The Employee should
complete the grievance notice sheet and submit it to the supervisor
at the time of the discussion with the supervisor. The supervisor
will respond, in writing, within ten (10) days from the date the
grievance sheet was received. Every effort shall be made to settle
the grievance at this step. Nothing shall prevent an Employee from
seeking guidance from the Union at this step.
Step 2. If the dispute is not solved at Step 1 between the
Employee and the supervisor, then the Employee should meet with
the Union and the dispute should be put in writing, stating the
nature of the grievance, the name or names of the Employees
involved, the provisions of the Agreement believed violated and the
remedy requested. This shall be submitted to the Employer-
designated Step 2 Representative within ten (10) calendar days of
the Step 1 written response. The Step 2 Representative shall
render an answer, in writing, within ten (10) days of the receipt of
the Step 2 submittal and the answer shall be transmitted to the
Employee and THE UNION.
Step 3. If the dispute is not solved by the Step 2 process, the
written grievance with the information required in Step 2, shall be
presented to the Employer-designated Step 3 Representative. This
shall be submitted within ten (10) days of receipt of the Step 2
answer. The Step 3 Employer-designated Representative shall
render a written answer within ten (10) days from receipt of the
Step 3 grievance and the answer shall be transmitted to the
Employee and THE UNION. Where no Employer Step 3
Representative is appointed, the grievance shall progress from
Step 3 to Step 4.
Step 4. A grievance unresolved in Step 3 may be appealed by the
Employee and THE UNION to Step 4. Notification of intent to
appeal to Step 4 shall be made within ten (10) days of receipt of
5
Employer's Step 3 answer. The Union shall notify the Bureau of
Mediation Services within ten (10) calendar days of the notice of
appeal to the Employer that the Union is submitting the matter to
arbitration and the Union shall request that the Bureau of Mediation
Services provide the parties with a list of arbitrators. The selection
of an arbitrator shall be made in accordance with the rules and
regulations as established by the Bureau of Mediation Services.
The Union must provide the Employer with written communication
within one-hundred eighty (180) calendar days of the date that the
Bureau of Mediation Services has mailed the parties a list of
arbitrators as to whether or not the Union intends to proceed to
arbitration. The one-hundred eighty (180) calendar days may be
extended by written, mutual agreement by both parties.
Section 3. A. The arbitrator shall have no right to amend, modify, nullify,
ignore, add to or subtract from, the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The
arbitrator shall consider and decide only the specific issue(s) submitted in writing
by the Employer and the Union, and shall have no authority to make a decision
on any other issue not so submitted.
B. The arbitrator shall be without power to make decisions
contrary to, or inconsistent with, or modifying or varying in any way the
application of laws, rules or regulations having the force and effect of law. The
arbitrator's decision shall be submitted in writing within thirty (30) days following
close of the hearing or the submission of briefs by the parties, whichever be later,
unless the parties agree to an extension. The arbitrator shall consider and
decide only the specific issue or issues submitted to him by the parties of this
Agreement and shall have no authority to make a decision on any other matter
not submitted to him, and the decision shall be binding on both the Employer and
the Union.
C. The fees and expenses for the arbitrator's services and
proceedings shall be borne equally by the Employer and the Union provided that
each party shall be responsible for compensating their own representative and
witnesses. If either party desires a verbatim record of the proceedings, they may
cause such a record to be made providing they pay for the record. If both parties
desire a verbatim record of the proceedings, the cost shall be shared equally.
Section 4. Waiver. If a grievance is not presented within the time limits
set forth above, it shall be considered "waived". If a grievance is not appealed to
the next step within the specific time limit or any agreed extension thereof, it shall
be considered settled on the basis of the Employer's last answer. If the
Employer does not answer a grievance or an appeal thereof within the specified
time limits, the Union may elect to treat the grievance as denied at that step and
immediately appeal the grievance to the next step. The time limit in each step
may be extended by mutual written agreement of the Employer and the Union in
each step.
6
Section 5. Choice of Remedy. If, as a result of the written Employer
response in Step 2, the grievance remains unresolved, the grievance may be
appealed either to Step 3 of Article 8 or a procedure such as: Civil Service,
Veteran's Preference, or Fair Employment. If appealed to any procedure other
than Step 3 of Article 8 the grievance is not subject to the arbitration procedure
as provided in Step 4 of Article 8. The aggrieved Employee shall indicate in
writing which procedure is to be utilized - Step 3 of Article 8 or another appeal
procedure - and shall sign a statement to the effect that the choice of any other
hearing precludes the aggrieved Employee from making a subsequent appeal
through Step 4 of Article 8.

grade shall mean an Employee's length of service in his or her current rank with
the department since his/her last date of promotion. Time in grade may only be
broken by the same acts as defined above for seniority. The Union shall prepare

for approval and posting. When two or more Employees have the same time in
grade list, their position on the time in grade list shall be determined by their
position on the Civil Service list when hired.
Section 2. Lay Offs. When a reduction in the work force becomes
necessary, the Employee with the least seniority shall be laid off first. The last
Employee laid off shall be the first to be recalled for work. No new Employees

number of sergeants becomes necessary, the sergeant with the least time in
grade shall be permitted to bump back into a patrol officer's position with less
departmental seniority.
Section 3. Probationary Employees. During the probationary period, a
newly hired or rehired Employee may be discharged at the sole discretion of the
Employer. During the probationary period a promoted Employee may be
returned to his/her previous position at the sole discretion of the Employer. The

notices of discharge which are to become part of an Employee's personnel file

notice to the copy in the Employee's personnel file. The Employee will receive a
copy of such reprimands and/or notices.

of City and affected Employees.

of sick leave an Employee earns after he has accumulated eight hundred hours,
he/she will be given credit for four (4) hours additional vacation and four (4) hours
of pay, computed at the end of each year. Sick leave may not be used during the
first 6 months of employment, but will be credited for use following the first 6
months of employment. Sick leave shall not be considered as a privilege which
an Employee may use at his/her discretion, but shall be allowed in the case of
actual illness, legal quarantine or disability of the Employee, or because of death
or critical illness in his/her immediate family*, or to receive dental or medical care
or other sickness preventative measures. Employees claiming sick leave may be
required to file competent written evidence that he/she has been absent as

part thereof, he/she may be required to provide evidence that he/she is again
physically able to perform his/her duties. Sick leave shall be computed on a
working day basis when used.
Sick leave is intended as a benefit primarily to the Employee himself/herself and
as a protection or insurance of earning power. While it is permitted due to death
or critical illness in the immediate family, it is intended to be available on a
restricted basis and in limited amounts for this purpose. For discretionary
attendance on family illness or medical needs, vacation or leave of absence
should be used. All provisions and definitions of the Family and Medical Leave
Act are incorporated into this sick leave provision.

20.

addition to accrued annual leave. Also, after 10 years of service or PERA

health professional by the Police Chief. Self-referral with the concurrence of the
department head will be deemed to be referral by the City.

borne by the City and the time spent by the sergeant undergoing the evaluation
will be considered duty time.

October 7, 2014
Agenda Item
4. A. Continued Public Hearing- Ordinance No. 527- Rezoning 305 and 345 Pennsylvania Avenue
South, Lake West Development, LLC, Applicant
Prepared By
Jason Zimmerman, Planning Manager
Summary
The Applicant, Lake West Development, LLC, intends to construct 27 detached townhome units
across 3.3 acres as part of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) located at 305 and 345
Pennsylvania Avenue South. In order for the Preliminary Design Plan to be considered,the
Council must first consider amendments to both the General Land Use Plan Map and the Zoning
Map. Without these amendments, the proposed use would not be consistent with the guiding or
zoning of the properties. The Planning Commission reviewed the proposal at its July 14 and July
28 meetings and recommended approval. The City Council held a public hearing at its August 19
meeting and has since tabled this item to October 7.
Zoning Map Amendment
The property at 305 Pennsylvania Avenue South is currently zoned Single Family Residential (R-1),
which provides for single family dwellings on lots of 10,000 square feet with 80 feet of width at the
minimum front setback line. The property at 345 Pennsylvania Avenue South is currently zoned 1-
394 Mixed use, which requires a mix of uses (residential, commercial, office, other) on the site.
Under the current proposal,the Zoning Map would be amended so that both of the properties
would be zoned as Medium Density Residential (R-3), which provides for medium density housing
of up to 10 units per acre.
Based on the density of the proposed PUD of 8.2 units per acre, Medium Density Residential zoning
would be the most appropriate designation for the two properties. The PUD process will allow for
greater flexibility in designing the site layout and accommodating various setbacks.
Recommendation
In order to be consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan, the City waited to act on this item
until the Metropolitan Council approved the recent Comprehensive Plan amendment reguiding
these properties to Medium-Low Density Residential. The Metropolitan Council has now approved
the Comprehensive Plan amendment allowing the Rezoning application to proceed.

Waldhauser referr o the fourth p agraph on page thre nd asked that it be clarified
to state that thObject property cle rly starts with two paralle ' e yard lot lines that
eventually b d creating a side yar and a rear yard, whereas the s lot lines on a pie
shaped I would intersect at a shar angle.
M ED by Waldhauser, seconded y Segelbaum and motion carried unanimously to
prove the August 25, 2014, minut s with the above noted clarification.
2. Informal Public Hearing — Minor Subdivision — 200 Meadow Lane North —
Sunnyridge Woods — SU08-12
Applicant: Golden Valley Land Company (Matt Pavek)
Address: 200 Meadow Lane North
Purpose: To reconfigure the existing single family residential lot into three new
single family residential lots.
Zimmerman referred to a site plan and explained the applicant's request to demolish the
existing single family home and subdivide the property into three new single family
residential lots, all of which meet the requirements found in City Code. He stated that
the applicant has had two neighborhood meetings and that the neighbor's concerns
included: the loss of trees, the size of the lots, the impact of the construction, the impact
on the character of the neighborhood, and the impact on surrounding home values.
Kluchka asked if there is any component of this proposal that would allow it to be
denied. Zimmerman stated that it meets all of the requirements in the City Code so
there is really no reason to deny the requested subdivision.
Segelbaum asked if the applicant is requesting any variances. Zimmerman said no.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 8, 2014
Page 2
Peter Knaeble, representing the applicant, stated that the main concern he heard at the
neighborhood meetings was regarding the density of his proposal. He stated that based
on economic feasibility he can't split the property into two lots instead of three.
He said he also heard concerns about the relationship of the home on proposed Lot 3 to
the neighbor immediately to the east at 207 Sunnyridge Lane. He said he would like to
propose that Lot 3 be widened by five feet and be allowed to have variances in order to
have a 10 foot west side yard setback (instead of 15 feet), and an east side yard
setback of 20 feet (instead of 15 feet) so that the new home can be built further away
from the existing home at 207 Sunnyridge Lane. He discussed the tree preservation
requirements and stated that the majority of the trees on the property would remain.
However, because of the neighbor's concerns, he would like to propose a tree
conservation easement along Meadow Lane and Sunnyridge Lane to further protect an
additional 34 trees. He referred to the neighbor's concerns about the impacts during
construction and said he thinks any additional controls regarding noise, parking, working
hours, etc. should be enforced at the time of construction.
Kluchka questioned the procedure in light of the applicant's proposed new information.
He questioned if the Planning Commission should wait to review the proposal until new
plans are submitted for review. Zimmerman stated that staff has had some time to
review the additional information so he doesn't think the process needs to be stopped.
He noted that any variance requests would take place during the building permit
process since the variances discussed would be from the Zoning Code requirements,
not from the Subdivision Code requirements. He added that the proposed tree
conservation easement would need more discussion. Cera stated that traditionally, a
variance request coming back to the City after a subdivision request has been frowned
upon. Kluchka said the neighbors want the house on Lot 3 moved further toward the
west, and he doesn't want to second guess the applicant.
Segelbaum asked Knaeble if these will be custom homes and if it is difficult at this point
to say which trees will stay and which ones will not. Knaeble said they will be custom
homes. He stated that he is required to submit a tree preservation plan with his
application and that some additional trees will be removed and some will be saved.
Segelbaum questioned if there are other ways, besides a tree conservation easement,
to maintain additional trees. Kluchka asked if the applicant could put a covenant on the
property regarding the trees. Knaeble said they are proposing an easement that would
get filed at the County with the property. Waldhauser added that covenants usually have
a fixed life. Baker questioned why they couldn't have a perpetual easement placed on
the lot itself so it is attached to the deed and protected. Matt Pavek, Applicant, stated
that he is proposing a perpetual easement, the trick is having someone enforce the
easement language. Baker referred to the tree preservation plan and noted that virtually
all the trees are in the street right-of-way, not on the lots themselves, so the proposed
tree conservation easement won't be effective anyway. Pavek said there are trees on
the lots and in the right-of-way.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 8, 2014
Page 3
Segelbaum asked Pavek if he has concerns that restrictions would make the lots more
difficult to sell. Pavek said it has been his experience that people want to keep as many
trees as possible, so having a tree conservation easement would be a win-win situation
and a good faith effort to preserve some of the trees. Segelbaum suggested that the
City Attorney might be able to suggest another way to protect the trees that would not
require the City to have to enforce the easement. Kluchka noted that half of the trees
are ash trees will probably be removed anyway.
Kluchka referred to the proposed amendment to move the west property line of Lot 3
five feet further to the west and asked if that is the maximum amount it could be moved.
Pavek stated that 5 feet is an approximate amount. He said language could be changed
to say that the lot line could be shifted to the west, but still maintain the required lot size.
Knaeble clarified that the plans they submitted are what they are proposing. He just
heard from the neighbors that they would like that property line shifted to the west, so
he is willing to do that.
Baker asked Pavek to explain the economic reasons why he rejected proposing a two-
lot split. Pavek explained that the price is set by how many lots can be created and that
the seller in this case is entitled to split this property into three lots. If fewer than three
lots are created it decreases the value of the land.
Kluchka opened the public hearing.
John Wetzel, 120 Meadow Lane North, thanked the applicant for listening to his
concerns. He said he is very concerned about the tree coverage and it takes 50 to 100
years to have the kind of tree coverage they have now, which he would like to maintain.
He said there will be an awful lot of activity on Sunnyridge Lane in the next 12 to 18
months. He referred to an aerial photo of the subject property and said he doesn't
recognize it. He said he walks by this property every day when he walks his dog, and it
doesn't look like what is being shown in the photo. He said that moving the center lot
line further west makes sense and preserving trees makes sense. He asked if the 15-
foot side yard setback is standard on all properties in Golden Valley. Kluchka said each
property is different. Wetzel asked the Planning Commission to take into consideration
what each neighbor is saying because once something starts, it steamrolls, and it is
hard to stop. He said he loves where he lives, and he pays unbelievably high taxes
because of the beauty of the neighborhood and the wonderful neighbors he has, and he
would like to preserve that.
Rick Moore, 214 Sunnyridge Lane, said he thinks the applicant is headed in the right
direction and has been listening to the neighbors. He said typical setbacks are really set
up for a typical rectangular lot that you might find in a grid situation where there is a
front, two small sides and back. He said in the situation of pie shaped lots, there needs
to be a different way to analyze these types of properties because there are side yards
next to back yards. He said the discussion demands that these types of lots be looked
at differently.

Mark Dietz, 207 Sunnyridge Lane, handed out pictures of his house, his back yard, and
the trees on the subject property. He said he appreciates the time the applicant has
spent with him and the neighbors. He said this proposal affects him a lot. He said he
counted 52 trees on Lot 3, some of which are 85- to 125-feet tall Austrian pines, which
are a protected species, and are 125 years old. The trees are a haven for wildlife, and
protection for his house. He said he has 20 windows on his house that face the
proposed Lot 3. He said he is trying to sell his house and realtors have told him it will be
virtually impossible to sell with construction going on, without reducing the price by 15 to
20%.
Michael Alexin, 208 Sunnyridge Circle, said the picture the applicants have shown is not
drawn to scale and that the proposed new houses are really right on top of each other.
He said he moved to this area because of the large lots and trees and this proposal is a
tragedy that will ruin the character of the neighborhood. He said even though it meets all
of the legal requirements, those requirements go across all of Golden Valley, and this is
a very special neighborhood, and a special community in the City with a very high tax
base. He said he really believes this should be a two lot development, and with bigger
homes on them the economics can work. He said doesn't understand why they need
the third lot because it will change the character of the neighborhood, and the homes
will be very close together.
Mark Dietz, 207 Sunnyridge Lane, referred to the pictures he submitted and noted that
his patio goes all the way to the property line. He said there is a major concern that his
house will look at the new house on Lot 3 so he suggests the proposed variance should
be granted so the new house will be further away from his house. He stated that there
are 2 or 3 pine trees that are 45 inches in diameter that will have to be removed which is
disturbing.
George Landis, 220 Meadow Lane North, said he'd like to offer an appeal for a two-lot
subdivision. He said people come to his house and they can't believe there are any
neighborhoods like this in the Twin Cities. He asked the Planning Commission if they
want to be like Wayzata or Coon Rapids, and asked where they want this community to
go.
Seeing and hearing no one else wishing to comment, Kluchka closed the public hearing.
Knaeble stated that the plans are drawn to scale. Baker asked Knaeble if the aerial
photo he showed was an existing photo of the trees or if trees were added to the photo.
Knaeble explained that the plan he showed is a color rendering layered over an
accurate aerial photo, and that no trees were added to the photo.
Kluchka asked Zimmerman to explain the side yard setback requirements. Zimmerman
stated that side yard setbacks vary according to the width of the lot and the height of the
house.

Waldhauser referred to the drainage on these properties and noted that there is going to
be a catch basin along the north property line. She asked how that will work if there are
trees in the easement area. Pavek said they will work with the City Engineer regarding
the placement of that pipe.
Kluchka referred to the comment regarding the methods used for odd lot sizes and
stated that the City Council will be discussing some proposed changes. Zimmerman
stated that the lot width language was addressed and the discussion regarding lot depth
is ongoing. Segelbaum noted that any new language being considered wouldn't change
the analysis of this proposal.
Cera questioned if Austrian pines are a protected species. Baker said they are a viable
species, but there is no special protection that he is aware of. He added that he is
cognizant of the fact that the City Council will be discussing a moratorium on
subdivisions at their next Council/Manager meeting, which he supports, so he is
opposed to a motion approving this proposal. Cera noted that the City Council does not
take action at their Council/Manager meetings. The Commissioners discussed tabling
this proposal until the City Council debates a moratorium on subdivisions. Zimmerman
stated that applications already received would continue to go through the process.
Segelbaum stated that the applicant has presented a viable proposal. He said he is
pleased that some changes were made based on neighborhood concerns, and he
doesn't see any basis to deny this request. Blum agreed, and said that this is one of the
most beautiful areas in the City, but understanding the law and the Planning
Commission's responsibility, there is nothing proposed here to base a denial on. He
added that the applicant could sue the City which would require the request be
approved anyway, without the changes the neighbor's asked the applicant to consider.
Kluchka said he thinks moving the interior lot line five feet to the west is a good idea that
he would like to encourage. Cera said he would prefer that option over granting
variances in the future.
Segelbaum said he would like to leave the tree conservation easement question to the
City Attorney. He said he thinks it would be better not to have the City be required to
actively maintain that easement, and he does not want it to be added as a condition of
approval. Cera suggested adding a condition stating that the easement could be one
option, but that further study is necessary.
Waldhauser said the proposed subdivision meets or exceeds all of the City's
requirements. She said she is not opposed to moving the interior lot line five feet to the
west, and she would endorse some sort of tree preservation arrangement.
MOVED by Waldhauser, seconded by Cera and motion carried 5 to 1 to recommend
approval of the Sunnyridge Woods Minor Subdivision subject to the following findings
and conditions:

Date: September 8, 2014
To: Golden Valley Planning Commission
From: Jason Zimmerman, Planning Manager
Subject: Informal Public Hearing on Preliminary Plan for Minor Subdivision of 200 Meadow
Lane North —Sunnyridge Woods—Golden Valley Land Company, Applicant
Summary of Request
Golden Valley Land Company, represented by Matt Pavek, is proposing to subdivide the property
located at 200 Meadow Lane North into three separate lots. There is one existing single family home
on this lot which would be demolished and replaced with three new single family homes.
The existing lot is 38,091 square feet. City Code requires that each new lot be a minimum of 10,000
square feet in the R-1 Single Family Residential Zoning District. The proposed Lot 1, to the north,
would be 11,200 square feet; Lot 2, to the south, would be 13,810 square feet; and Lot 3, to the east,
would be 13,081 square feet. City Code also requires that each lot have a minimum of 80 feet of
width at the front setback line. Lot 1 would have 80 feet of width, Lot 2 would have 100.2 feet of
width, and Lot 3 would have 122.3 feet of width. The dimensions of all of the newly created lots
provide a sufficient building envelope for development.
Qualification as a Minor Subdivision
The proposed three lot subdivision qualifies as a minor subdivision because the property located at
200 Meadow Lane North is an existing platted lot of record, the proposed subdivision will produce
fewer than four lots, and it will not create need for public improvements. The Applicant has
submitted the required information to the City that allows for the subdivision to be evaluated as a
minor subdivision.
Staff Review of Minor Subdivision
Staff has evaluated the proposed lot subdivision request as a minor subdivision to create three lots in
the R-1 Single Family Residential Zoning District.
The Applicant has submitted a survey of the existing lot prior to the proposed subdivision, as well as a
preliminary plat displaying the three lots after the subdivision. Lot 1 would have access off of Meadow
Lane, the other two lots would have access off of Sunnyridge Lane.
City Engineer Jeff Oliver has submitted a memorandum dated September 2, 2014, regarding
recommendations from the Engineering Division concerning this request. Requirements set forth in
Mr. Oliver's memo are to be included in the recommended action of this subdivision.
Qualification Governing Approval as a Minor Subdivision
According to Section 12.50 of the City's Subdivision Regulations, the following are the regulations
governing approval of minor subdivisions with staff comments related to this request:
1. Minor subdivisions shall be denied if the proposed lots do not meet the requirements of the
appropriate zoning district. All three of the lots of the proposed subdivision meet the
requirements of the R-1 Single Family Zoning District.
2. A minor subdivision may be denied if the City Engineer determines that the lots are not
buildable. The City Engineer finds that the lots are buildable.
3. A minor subdivision may be denied if there are no sewer and water connections available or if it
is determined by the City Engineer that an undue strain will be placed on City utility systems by
the addition of the new lots. The addition of the new lots will not place an undue strain on City
utility systems.
4. Approval of the minor subdivision may require the granting of certain easements to the City. As
discussed in the Engineering memo, new utility easements must be dedicated and shown on the
Final Plat.
5. If public agencies other than the City have jurisdiction of the streets adjacent to the minor
subdivision, the agencies will be given the opportunities to comment. No other public agencies
have jurisdiction over the streets adjacent to the site.
6. The City may ask for review of title if required by the City Attorney for dedication of certain
easements. The City Attorney will determine if such a title review is necessary prior to approval of
the Final Plat.
7. The minor subdivision may be subject to park dedication requirements. A park dedication fee of
$4,448.80 (2% of the estimated land value with credit for one unit) is required for this subdivision.
8. The conditions spelled out shall provide the only basis for denial of a minor subdivision.
Approval will be granted to any application that meets the established conditions. All conditions
have been met.
Recommended Action
Staff recommends approval of the proposed minor subdivision subject to the following conditions:
1. The City Attorney will determine if a title review is necessary prior to approval of the Final Plat.
2. A park dedication fee of$4,448.80 shall be paid before Final Plat approval.
3. The City Engineer's memorandum, dated September 2, 2014, shall become part of this approval.
4. All applicable City permits shall be obtained prior to the development of the new lots.

Subject: Subdivision Review for Sunnyridge Woods
Engineering staff has reviewed the plans for a proposed minor subdivision of property located at
200 Meadow Lane North. The Developer proposes to demolish the existing home and subdivide
the parcel into three single-family lots. The comments contained in this review are based upon
plans submitted to the City on August 7, 2014.
Engineering staff recommends approval of the proposed minor subdivision of property located at
200 Meadow Lane North, called Sunnyridge Woods, subject to the following comments:
1. The existing lot is part of the recorded plat known as Sunnyridge Addition which did not
include the dedication of public easements. The final plat for this development must
include the dedication of new easements, consistent with the City's Subdivision
Ordinance. This includes the following:
a. 10-foot drainage and utility easements along all plat boundaries.
b. 12-foot drainage and utility easements centered on interior lot lines.
c. 15-foot drainage and utility easement along north plat boundary to accommodate
the proposed storm sewer system.
2. A City demolition permit, stormwater management permit, and utility permits are
required for the demolition of the existing home.
3. A City Right-of-Way Management permit is required for each parcel for the proposed
excavations and obstructions in public right-of-way that are specific to each parcel.
a. The proposed Lot 2 will utilize the existing concrete driveway apron. Lots 1 and 3
will require the construction of new driveway aprons which must meet the City's
standard and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.
G:\Developments-Private\Sunnyridge Woods\Subdivision Review_sunnyridge woods.doa
b. The construction of the driveway for Lot 1 will impact the City's existing sidewalk
on Meadow Lane and therefore portions of the sidewalk must be removed and
replaced in compliance with City standards and ADA requirements. Details
regarding the driveway and sidewalk construction will be further refined at the
time of permitting.
4. The Developer has shown on the plans that utilities can be extended to serve the
proposed dwellings. Staff has the following comments regarding the proposed utility
construction:
a. Lot 1 will reuse an existing sewer service stub and will require the construction of a
new water service in Meadow Lane. Staff recommends that the Developer explore
constructing a new sanitary sewer service parallel to the new water service for
several reasons (staff has discussed this with the Developer and the Developer is
looking into this further). Staff also recommends that the Developer or Contractor
directional bore the water and sewer services to Lot 1, if feasible, to minimize
impacts to traffic and the street pavement on Meadow Lane North.
b. Lot 2 will reuse the existing water and sewer services which currently serve
200 Meadow Lane.
c. Lot 3 will utilize an existing sewer service stub and proposes to construct a new
water service in Sunnyridge Lane. The pavement on Sunnyridge will be excavated
to construct the water service.
d. A Right-of-Way Permit is required for all excavations and obstructions within City
right-of-way. The Developer or Contractor will also be required to obtain the
appropriate sewer and water permits from the City for the removal, rehabilitation,
or installation of utility services.
e. The Developer is proposing the construction of a 12-inch HDPE storm sewer along
the north boundary of the development to drain a low area of the property. Due
to the lack of easements on the property immediately north, the storm sewer
must be relocated south so it is centered within the proposed 15-foot drainage
and utility easement. The storm sewer must be constructed of reinforced concrete
pipe, unless otherwise approved by the City Engineer. The final design and location
of the pipe and structures will be determined at the time of permitting. The storm
sewer will be constructed by the Developer and will be owned and maintained by
the City. Therefore, a letter of credit or cash security will be required for the public
improvement as a guarantee that the storm sewer will be constructed in a timely
manner and in accordance with City standards.
5. Sanitary Sewer Inflow and Infiltration (1/1) Reduction
a. The existing sanitary sewer service to 200 Meadow Lane North is in the process of
being inspected for compliance with the 1/1 ordinance. Depending on the results of
the inspection, the Developer may need to enter into an 1/1 Deposit Agreement
with the City guaranteeing that the service is removed/repaired/rehabilitated to
comply with the 1/1 ordinance.
G:\Developments-Private\Sunnyridge Woods\Subdivision Review_sunnyridge woods.docx 2
b. The three new parcels must obtain compliance with the City's Inflow and
Infiltration Ordinance, prior to occupancy of the homes.
6. A preliminary grading plan was submitted by the Developer. The new lots will be custom-
graded at the time of home construction, and therefore a City Stormwater Management
Permit will be required before the start of construction of each home. A stormwater
management plan that meets City standards is required as part of each permit submittal.
The Developer and its Contractors must ensure that stormwater runoff in the north
portion of the development is accommodated within the property and directed to the
proposed storm sewer to the extent feasible.
7. This development is subject to the City's Tree Preservation Ordinance and a preliminary
tree preservation plan was submitted by the Developer. Because each lot will be custom-
graded, a separate Tree Preservation Permit will be required for each lot prior to the start
of home construction. The City Forester will review the tree inventory, tabulations, and
plans in more detail at the time of permitting.
8. There is a deferred assessment of$3,250 for the reconstruction of streets adjacent to this
property as part of the City's 2002 Pavement Management Program.
9. The developer and/or contractor must obtain the appropriate permits prior to
development.
Approval of this minor subdivision is also subject to the review and comment of the City Attorney
and other City staff. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions regarding this matter.

Memorandum
DATE: September 22, 2014
TO: Golden Valley City Council and City Manager
FROM: City Attorney
SUBJECT: Application Review During Moratorium
This memorandum summarizes what state law and city ordinances say about
reviewing subdivision and PUD applications during the recently enacted 6 month
moratorium.
Statutory Authority for Moratorium
Under state law, Golden Valley has the authority to enact an "interim" or
temporary ordinance that "regulates, restricts, or prohibits any use, development, or
subdivision" within the City for up to one year. Minn. Stat. 5462.355, subd. 4(a). During
this time, the City must conduct a study or hearing to consider changes to the City's
subdivision, zoning and/or Comp Plan regulations.
Moratorium's Scope and Time
The moratorium passed by City Council on September 16 precludes the City from
reviewing or approving any new subdivision or PUD application filed after the effective
date of the moratorium that has a "single family residential component". The moratorium
lasts for 6 months, during which the City is to study the issues highlighted in the
moratorium, and make any changes to the zoning and subdivision regulations warranted
by the conclusions of the study.
Limits on Moratorium—Applications in the Pipeline
Subdivision Applications with Preliminary Approvals. Under state law, a
moratorium cannot "halt, delay or impede a subdivision that has been given preliminary
approval." Minn. Stat. 5462.355, subd. 4(c). The regulations that are in effect at the time
the application was preliminarily approved applies to the review of the final plat. Minn.
Stat. 5462.358, subd. 3(c).
All Applications Submitted Before Moratorium. Under state law, a moratorium
does not stop the 60/120 day clock on applications filed before the effective date of the
moratorium. Minn. Stat. 5462.355, subd. 4(c). This means that the City should act on all
applications in the pipeline within the time limits set by state law or risk having those
applications automatically approved under the state's 60/120 day rule. Minn. Stat.
515.99.
Review Standards. Subdivisions must be approved if they meet the conditions of
approval in the subdivision ordinance. In addition, Golden Valley's ordinance makes it
clear that the conditions spelled out in the subdivision ordinance "provide the only basis
for denial" of a minor subdivision, and that "approval will be granted to any application
that meets the established conditions." City Code 5 12.50, sudb. 3.1. With PUDs, Council
has more discretion, and can deny PUDs if there is any rational basis for the denial under
the applicable PUD standards in City Code. City Code 511.55.

Executive Summary For Action
Golden Valley City Council Meeting
October 7, 2014
Agenda Item
6. A. Amendment to Chapter 3: Public Utilities of Golden Valley City Code Regarding the Addition
of a Fats, Oils, and Grease Ordinance
Prepared By
Jeff Oliver, PE, City Engineer
Bert Tracy, Public Works Maintenance Manager
R.J. Kakach, EIT, Utility Engineer
Summary
Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) is defined as the buildup of greasy material in the sanitary sewer
system, usually from animal or vegetable food sources that are discharged into a sink or floor
drain. Over time,these discharges begin to build up on the interior walls of the sanitary sewer
pipes, resulting in a decrease in capacity. These restrictions often result in sewer blockages and
backups.
In an attempt to minimize these issues, staff currently spends hundreds of hours cleaning and
jetting the sewer lines in the City each year. A cost breakdown of the cleaning and jetting
indicates City resources in excess of$114,000 per year go into this additional maintenance. In
some extreme cases, specific lines are cleaned as often as once per week. In an ideal situation
with the proper grease separation devices in place, these lines would only need to be cleaned
every three years. The additional maintenance effort consumes City resources which could be
better utilized on other utility maintenance issues.
In addition to the maintenance concerns, the Golden Valley City Code does not currently require
the removal of FOG necessary to meet local Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES)
and national Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards. Both MCES 406.04 and 406.05
and EPA National Pretreatment Program (40 CFR 403.5(b)(3)) rules specifically prohibit the
discharge of"solid or viscous pollutants in amounts which will cause obstruction" into the
wastewater collection system. More specifically, MCES defines FOG as a concern when it exceeds
100 milligrams per liter as a solution.
To properly address the issue of FOG discharge into the public sanitary sewer system, staff has
drafted an ordinance to achieve proper removal and disposal of FOG. There are 109 licensed food
service providers in the City of Golden Valley. About half of these facilities are restaurants that
produce FOG. Some of these restaurants already have grease traps or interceptors installed;
however, many do not. In addition to requiring restaurants to have the necessary equipment in
place, this ordinance also requires each restaurant to be accountable for proper cleaning and
maintenance of its equipment to ensure that it continues to work effectively. To ensure this
accountability, each restaurant would be required to submit annual maintenance logs to the City
for review. Consideration for non-restaurant food service providers would be evaluated once all
restaurants have complied.
