Planning Manager Zimmerman presented the staff report and answered questions from
Council. City Attorney Barnard answered questions from Council.
Mayor Harris opened public hearing.
Mr. Peter Knaeble, Applicant, summarized the history of the PUD plans and explained how
he arrived at the current proposal. He said he had revised the development project as to what
he heard the Council, the Planning Commission and the neighborhood request. He stated he
has had a number of neighborhood meetings and that the neighbors support the current plan
which includes five custom built homes rather than the other cul-de-sac option.
Mr. Perry Thom, 320 Louisiana Avenue N., said he struggles with the Planning Commission's
desire to have a dense population. He said he would rather not have Golden Valley be a
starter home community, but rather a community that people want to move in to and stay for
their lifetime. He said he appreciated Mr. Knaeble working with the neighborhood on the
development and the he does not want the cul-de-sac option. He said he would prefer two
large homes on the lot but he can live with this plan and would appreciate if the Council
would support it.
Ms. Mary Jane Pappas, 20 Ardmore Drive, asked what the value of the new homes being
built would be.
Mr. Knaeble stated the proposed homes will be around $450,000 each. He said the market
value of the current homes combined is approximately $322,000 and once the new homes
were built the combined value would be around $2,500,000.
Mayor Harris closed public hearing.
There was much Council discussion regarding the Preliminary PUD Plan for Marie's Woods
PUD No. 119 located at 7200 and 7218 Harold Avenue.

following voted against: Harris and Schmidgall and the motion carried.

Planning Manager Zimmerman presented the staff report and answered questions from
Council. City Attorney Barnard answered questions from Council.
There was much Council discussion regarding the moratorium on Subdivisions and Planned
Unit Developments that include a single Family Residential Component.
Council opened up the meeting for public comments.
Unofficial City Council Minutes -4- October 21, 2014
6A. Discussion of Possible Amendment to Moratorium-continued
Ms. Linda Fisher, Fredrikson & Byron, P.A., 200 S. 6th Street representing Mark Dietz, 207
Sunnyridge Lane, said she thought the question was if Council has the authority to include
pending subdivisions in the interim moratorium. She explained the history of the 60-Day Law
or Section 15.99 which provides for Cities to act within a certain time period or find a reason
to deny a subdivision application. She stated that the Interim Ordinance Act does not prohibit
the pending development applications from being subject to the interim ordinance. She said
she felt that subdivisions should not be ruled by Sect. 15.99 that only PUD applications
should. She said if Council would like to adopt an interim moratorium it could stop the time
clock on subdivision applications but it would be the Council's decision. She said she thought
the Council could go back to the ordinance and amend it and that other cities have had a
moratorium on pending subdivision applications.
Ms. Paula Callies, Callies Law, 5500 Wayzata Blvd representing three of the parties with
pending subdivision applications, said that the law is clear that you cannot apply the
moratorium to pending subdivision applications. She said the 15.99 rule states a decision
must be made within 60 days. She gave additional history on the rule and said she felt the
law was clear and cities must follow the deadline stated. She said the law does not support a
moratorium and to protect the planning process it should not be applied to existing
applications.
Mr. Mark Thieroff, of Siegel Brill P.A., 100 Washington Ave representing the Lecy Group,
1801 Noble Drive, said he felt that PUD applications should be left out of the moratorium. He
said that there are only two PUDs in question and his client's property was never platted for
residential use. He stated his client had contacted the City regarding the moratorium before
they submitted their application and the City indicated that if the application was submitted
before the moratorium it should not be subjected to it.
Mr. Drew Dornbusch, 250 Paisley Lane, stated he is one of the pending applicants and that
the Council should recognize the other attorneys are representing their clients and only the
City Attorney would be watching out for the City.
The Council continued their discussion regarding the moratorium on Subdivisions and
Planned Unit Development that include a single Family Residential Component.
MOTION made by Mayor Harris, seconded by Council Member Clausen to direct staff to draft
an amendment to the interim ordinance so that it acts on new and existing subdivisions
applications except for those who have preliminary approval and it acts on new PUD
applications that include a single family residential component, upon a vote being taken the
following voted in favor of: Harris, Clausen and Fonnest and the following voted against:
Snope and Schmidgall and the motion carried.
6B. METRO Blue Line Extension Update
Planning Manager Zimmerman presented the staff report and answered questions from the
Council.
MOTION made by Council Member Schmidgall, seconded Council Member Snope to receive
and file the METRO Blue Line update and the motion carried unanimously.

Regular Meeting of the
Golden Valley Planning Commission
October 13, 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,
October 13, 2014. Chair Kluchka called the meeting to order at 7 pm.
Those present were Planning Commissioners, Blum, Cera, Johnson, Kluchka,
Segelbaum and Waldhauser. Also present was Planning Manager Jason Zimmerman,
Associate Planner/Grant Writer Emily Goellner, and Administrative Assistant Lisa
Wittman. Commissioner Baker was absent.
1. Approval of Minutes
September 22, 2014, Regular Planning Commission Meeting
Waldhauser referred to the second paragraph on page 9 and said she would like to
make a clarification after the fact that the homes referred to on Rhode Island Avenue
sold for $400,000 to $450,000, not $350,000 to $400,000 as discussed.
MOVED by Waldhauser, seconded by Cera and motion carried unanimously to approve
the September 22, 2014, minutes with the above noted clarification.
2. Informal Public Hearing — Minor Subdivision — 108 Brunswick Ave N —
Brunswick Estates — SU12-17
Applicant: Wooddale Edina LLC
Address: 108 Brunswick Avenue North
Purpose: To reconfigure the existing single family residential lot into two new
single family residential lots.
Zimmerman explained the applicant's request to subdivide the lot at 108 Brunswick
Avenue North into two new lots in order to construct two new single family homes. He
referred to a site plan and stated that Lot 1 will be 19,100 square feet in size with
113.62 feet of width at the front setback line, and Lot 2 will be 19,510 square feet with
126.75 feet of width at the front setback line. He stated that the proposed subdivision
meets all of the requirements outlined in the City Code, therefore staff is recommending
approval of the proposal.
Cera asked how many subdivisions have occurred in this neighborhood. Zimmerman
said there have been four or five subdivisions in this area over the past few years
because the lots are large enough to divide. Cera asked how many of those
subdivisions have torn down the existing house versus keeping it. Zimmerman said that
is something that can be reviewed as part of the moratorium study. He stated that
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
October 13, 2014
Page 2
existing houses are typically torn down because they are located centrally on the lot and
added that in this case the existing house was in need of significant remodeling.
Segelbaum referred to an existing shed located on the property and asked if it is in
compliance with the Zoning Code requirements. Zimmerman said he would verity that it
is located 5 feet from the side and rear yard property lines.
Waldhauser referred to item six in the City Engineer's memo which reads in part that the
developer must ensure that existing drainage patterns are maintained or improved and
that stormwater runoff is accommodated within the property to the extent practicable.
She said to her "drainage patterns" means the direction of flow wouldn't change, but if
more impervious surface is added, the amount of water will change. She said it doesn't
protect the neighbors at all if the patterns or direction can stay the same, but the amount
of water can increase. She added that her concern does not apply in this case, but in
the overall subdivision process. Zimmerman said that a number of grading and
stormwater techniques are used to accommodate stormwater runoff within the property.
Kluchka suggested the language be made clearer. Cera suggested that language
regarding stormwater be added to the conditions of approval listed in the Subdivision
Code because he has seen the problems runoff can cause. Kluchka said it is alarming if
there are significant drainage impacts that aren't being accounted for.
Johnson referred to the applicant's plans and noted that they were received after the
moratorium effective date. Zimmerman stated that the initial submission occurred prior
to the moratorium effective date, but the applicant submitted some additional
information later.
Kluchka asked about the time line of the project. Steven Schwieters, Wooddale Edina,
LLC, Applicant, said he hopes to start the project in December, with completion in June
or July. He added that he is very familiar with this street and said that the homes will be
approximately 4,500 to 5,500 square feet in size.
Cera asked about the price of the proposed homes. Schwieters said they will cost
approximately $1,150,000 to $1,350,000.
Kluchka opened the public hearing. Seeing and hearing no one wishing to speak,
Kluchka closed the public hearing.
Blum said it is refreshing to see lots that aren't the minimum size and he thinks this
proposal will fit in with the neighborhood. Cera agreed and said the proposed lots meet
all of the City Code requirements. He said the City generally strives to see more
moderately priced homes, but he understands the prices in this situation. Segelbaum
said he agrees that the homes will fit with the neighborhood even after the subdivision.
Kluchka said all the findings are met and that this is a pretty straightforward proposal.
MOVED by Cera, seconded by Blum and motion carried unanimously to recommend
approval of the Brunswick Estates Minor Subdivision subject to the following findings
and conditions:
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission

Findings:
1. Both of the lots of the proposed subdivision meet the requirements of the R-1 Single
Family Zoning District.
2. The City Engineer finds that the lots are buildable.-
3. The addition of the new lots will not place an undue strain on City utility systems.
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$3,080 shall be paid before Final Plat approval.
3. The City Engineer's memorandum, dated October 7, 2014, shall become part of this
approval.
4. All applicable City permits shall be obtained prior to the development of the new lots.
3. Discussion Regarding Recycling Centers
Goellner explained that a moratorium was adopted by the City Council on July 1, 2014, to
prohibit the establishment of any new recycling centers for six months to allow staff time
to research the possible need to update both the definition of Recycling Centers in the
Zoning Code, and the reconsideration of the appropriateness of Recycling Centers as
permitted uses within the Light Industrial and Industrial zoning districts.
Goellner discussed staff's recommendations including: creating two definitions, one for
major recycling facilities and one for minor recycling facilities, removing metal shredding
and car crushing from the current definition, adding definitions for compostable waste and
yard waste, requiring a Conditional Use Permit for minor recycling facilities in the Light
Industrial zoning district, allowing minor recycling facilities as a permitted use and major
recycling facilities as a conditional use in the Industrial zoning district, and prohibiting
outdoor storage. She added that staff is also recommending that the existing distance
requirements for recycling centers remain.
Kluchka asked about noise issues considered in staff's research. Goellner stated that
truck traffic, and the picking up and dropping off of materials, among others were
considered. Kluchka asked what "indoors" means and if the City would allow recycling in
a covered space or with windows open, both of which may cause noise issues.
Segelbaum questioned if collection, sorting, and disposing should also be restricted along
with outdoor storage. He questioned if the proposed ordinance captures what these
facilities do. Cera questioned what is trying to be accomplished.
Cera said he has dealt with recycling in his job for many years. He discussed various
types of recycling facilities, scrap metal facilities, drop-off facilities and hazardous waste
facilities. He stated that Golden Valley does not need a drop-off facility because of how
the recycling is picked up. He said that Golden Valley also doesn't want to have a
hazardous waste facility or a typical recycling facility. He stated that permits may need to
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
October 13, 2014
Page 4
be obtained and that any ordinance the City adopts should be consistent with the state
statutes.
Kluchka asked about the size of a typical recycling facility. Cera said they are usually in a
warehouse.
Segelbaum questioned if it would make sense to refer to the state requirements regarding
the definitions. Cera suggested not having major and minor categories and just calling
them recycling centers. Kluchka suggested offering specific language in the conditional
use and permitted sections in the ordinance. Cera agreed that would make it simpler. He
suggested eliminating the language pertaining to household hazardous waste, car
crushing and appliances.
Segelbaum said he would like to have the major and minor levels in the Light Industrial
and Industrial zoning districts, but he is not sure how to distinguish between the two.
Kluchka suggested issues such as size, hours and truck access areas be considered.
Cera stated that volume and quantity should also be addressed. He reiterated that he is in
favor of one facility that could go in the Light Industrial zoning district and the Industrial
zoning district. Segelbaum said he is concerned about inconsistencies. Waldhauser said
she likes the idea of having major and minor categories because there is already a logical
relationship with the Light Industrial and Industrial zoning districts.
Cera said the City is going to want to look forward on this issue because the whole
system is evolving. He added that he thinks the language should be kept to collection,
storage, transferring, and sorting because the City won't want to have incinerators or
chemical plants.
Johnson said he thinks consistency is important and said the terms should be better
defined so there isn't a danger of excluding something. He added that the Commission
should decide what they want, or don't want, to see happen.
Blum said he is concerned about the words "short-term storage" because they are
ambiguous. Cera suggested short-term storage be defined as 90 days or less.
Blum suggested that the word in the title not be used in the definition. He also questioned
if "garden waste" and "yard waste" are duplicative and asked about recycling dirt.
Segelbaum questioned if yard waste was being excluded. Cera suggested the ordinance
use the words "as defined in state statute."
Segelbaum asked if staff did research on pollution. Goellner said no, and added that
some cities define recycling centers based on the volume of recycling, and the number of
trucks per day at a facility.
Kluchka questioned if any type of recycling should be allowed in the Light Industrial
zoning district. Waldhauser said it makes sense to allow consumer household items like
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
October 13, 2014
Page 5
electronics or small appliances in the Light Industrial zoning district. Cera suggested
allowing collection and disassembly in the Light Industrial zoning district and more
processing types of uses in the Industrial zoning district.
Segelbaum said excluding yard waste makes sense. Cera suggested excluding
household hazardous as well. Goellner suggested listing conditions in the ordinance
regarding traffic volume and material volume.
Zimmerman said staff would work on revising the proposed ordinance and bring it back to
the Planning Commission for further review.
--Short Recess--
4. Reports on Meetings of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority, City
Council, Board of Zoning Appeals and other Meetings
Kluchka reported on the most recent Community Center Task Force meeting. He stated
that the agenda was more about costs and not the final designs.
Waldhauser gave an update on the last Bottineau Station Area Planning Committee
meeting. She stated that it was their first opportunity to respond to specific details about
the stations and what could happen at each station.
5. Other Business
• Council Liaison Report
Council Member Schmidgall gave an update on the recently adopted subdivision
moratorium. He stated that Council is going discuss, at their next regular meeting,
including proposals that are already in the review process. Kluchka questioned if the
Council has been educated at all on the research done by the Planning Commission in
the last five years. Zimmerman said that will be one component of the moratorium
review, along with reviewing existing codes and listening sessions.
Cera asked if the Council is going to be discussing organized hauling. Schmidgall said
yes, he believes that item will be discussed at the November Council/Manager meeting.

8. Mowing in the Parks — Al Lundstrom
Lundstrom explained since the proposal in 2012, Park Maintenance has been
keeping some portions of parks more natural by reducing mowing. He said the
goal is to maintain grass in certain areas at
knee height. He said they recently expanded the process to other areas in the
city and said it's going well.
Lundstrom said he understands that not everyone is going to like the new look,
but explained that he was asked to save time and money and this is one way to
do so. Plus, it's more natural.

meeting as presented. Motion carried.
36-Inch Watermain Emergency Repair
On September 18, a break occurred on the JWC 36-inch water transmission main in the
City of Robbinsdale. The main was constructed in 1963 and this is the second failure on the
line within the last 15 months. It was thought the first break occurred due to construction
damage, but with this recent failure, staff is concerned there may be more serious issues.
In December 2013, JWC contracted with Pure Technologies to use its Smart Ball
technology to inspect the line for leaks. No leaks were found at that time. Tom Mathisen
presented a new proposal from Pure Technologies to inspect the joints and look for
indicators of pre-stressing in the pipe. The inspection will include a manned visual
inspection, manned electromagnetic inspection, and engineering analysis and report. The
total cost for this inspection is $85,000 and will cover the area between Lake Road and
Highway 100. Chair Burt asked if the JWC should conduct an operational audit. Crystal
staff did not believe the failures were due to transmission operations. Randy Kloepper said
operations was taken into consideration when considering the cause of the break. With the
manned visual inspection, broken pre-stressing wire wraps will be identified and the
impacts of those breaks on the structural integrity of the pipeline evaluated. Test results are
expected by October 17.
Joint Water Commission

Representatives of Robbinsdale City Council attended and asked if the JWC is financially
able to fix the pipe. They also asked for an insurance update regarding homeowners who
had sewage backups in their homes as a result of the break. Chair Burt reassured
Robbinsdale that repairing the line is a priority and the JWC will redirect CIP projects to
fund the repair. Sue Virnig added claim information has been forwarded to the League of
Minnesota Cities (LMC) and more information should be available next week. There were
11 names and addresses on the list and the LMC has not heard back from all the residents
on that list yet. Robbinsdale contacted the LMC about the liability concern and was told the
adjusters do not assign liability until their investigation is completed, which is confusing to
the homeowners. Robbinsdale asked the JWC to continue to update them as information
becomes available from the LMC.
MOVED by Norris and seconded by McDonald to approve the contract with Pure
Technologies in the amount of $85,000 for emergency repairs of the 36-inch watermain.
Motion carried.
Emergency Backup Water Supply Project Update
Crystal's two wells are excavated to a 400-foot depth and the contractor is currently
finishing the casing installation on the second well. Crystal expects the contractor to be
completed by the end of October and the wells will be operational. The Golden Valley well
is on schedule for construction in spring 2015.
County Road 9 Project Update
Mathisen attended the pressure testing of the new 24-inch pipe in Robbinsdale. He
requested approval from the JWC for Total Controls' invoices.
MOVED by Norris and seconded by McDonald to approve the invoices from Total Controls.
Motion carried.
Other Business
• KLM Engineering completed the inspection of the New Hope South Tower and initial
results showed no issues. The North Tower will be inspected on October 16. After
completion of the inspections, KLM will submit an official inspection report of both

Agenda Item
3. E. Call for Public Hearing for the 2015, 2016 and 2017 PMPs; Project Nos. 15-01, 16-01 and
17-01
Prepared By
Jeff Oliver, PE, City Engineer
Summary
At the July 16, 2013, Council meeting, the Council directed staff to prepare a feasibility report for
the 2015, 2016 and 2017 Pavement Management Programs (PMP). The proposed project
included rehabilitation of 2.3 miles of local streets. At a subsequent Council Manager meeting,
the Council directed staff to split the initial project into two projects. The resultant feasibility
report for these projects includes rehabilitation of 0.71 miles of streets in 2015, 0.50 miles of
street in 2016, and 1.0 miles of street in 2017. The streets included in each project are shown on
the attached project location map.
The feasibility report for these projects has been prepared by the consulting engineering firm of
Short Elliott Hendrickson, Inc. and will be presented at the public hearing. The feasibility report
outlines a project that includes reconstruction of the subject streets, replaces and repairs
portions of the sanitary sewer and water systems, and includes storm drainage improvements
throughout the project area. The estimated total project costs are as follows:
2015 PMP = $2,570,000
2016 PMP = $1,845,000
2017 PMP = $4,000,000
The special assessment for the proposed projects is $6,630 for each residential unit.
Consistent with past PMP projects, neighborhood open houses and issue specific neighborhood
meetings have been held throughout 2014 regarding this project.
The public hearing for the proposed projects will be held at the January 6, 2015, City Council
meeting.

3. F. Authorization to Sign Amended Hennepin County Violent Offender Task Force 2014 Co-
Operative Agreement
Prepared By
Stacy Carlson, Chief of Police
Summary
The Hennepin County Violent Offender Task Force 2014 Co-Operative Agreement has been
amended to reflect the oversight board's decision to purchase insurance to specifically cover
officers in their work on the task force. The League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT)
recently advised the oversight board the insurance held by each individual city would not cover
the actions of task force officers, hence the need to purchase insurance specific to the group.

Agenda Item
4. A. Public Hearing- Preliminary PUD Plan for Marie's Woods PUD No. 119 - 7200 and 7218
Harold Avenue - Peter Knaeble, Applicant
Prepared By
Jason Zimmerman, Planning Manager
Summary
This item was heard at the October 21, 2014, City Council meeting. At that time, the Council
voted to send the item back to the Planning Commission and encouraged the Applicant to
explore reducing the number of proposed units from five to four. Subsequently, the Applicant has
determined that the project does not work financially with only four units, and so is looking for a
final ruling from the City Council on his five unit proposal.
The Applicant, Peter Knaeble, is seeking approval of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Permit to
develop five single family homes on two existing single family lots. The existing single family
homes would be demolished and five new homes would be constructed.
The property is zoned Moderate Density Residential (R-2) and guided for long-term Low Density
use on the General Land Use Plan map. The total area of the two lots is 1.6 acres. The site is
bounded by Highway 55 to the north, by Harold Avenue to the south, and is located across the
street from Lions Park. There are single family homes on either side of the proposed project.
Without a PUD, the site could accommodate two single family homes, two twin-homes, or one to
two townhomes for a range of two to eight total units. At 3.125 units per acre, the density of this
proposal is consistent with both the Zoning Code and the Comprehensive Plan.
Issues Raised at Planning Commission
The Planning Commission reviewed this proposal at their September 22 meeting and voted
unanimously (6-0) to recommend denial.
TREE CONSERVATION
The Applicant proposed the establishment of a Tree Conservation Easement across the northern
portion of the site, in part to provide a buffer for the proposed homes from Highway 55 and in
part to maintain the existing "green" viewshed when driving along the highway. It would range
from 120 to 175 feet deep across all five lots. A preliminary tree inventory indicated
approximately 30 trees in this area, many of them cottonwoods and box elders. While Staff and
the Planning Commission applauded the effort, neither felt that the preservation of these trees
rose to the standards typically associated with a City-maintained conservation easement and that
a private covenant would be a better vehicle for preservation.
UTILITY EASEMENT
Engineering Staff raised a concern regarding a proposed easement along the eastern edge of the
site. An existing 15 foot drainage easement lies over an 18 inch storm sewer pipe that runs north-
south. A new 20 foot easement is proposed as part of the application; Staff feels a 25 foot
easement is required to provide future access to the 12 foot deep pipe. The Planning Commission
cited this fact in their recommendation for denial.
SIDE YARD SETBACK REQUIREMENT
While a PUD allows for flexibility from many requirements of the Zoning Code, there are certain
standards and guidelines provided in Subdivision 3 of the PUD section of the code to which
flexibility cannot be offered. Subdivision 3(C)(1) states that no principal building shall be closer
than its height to the rear or side property line when such line abuts a single family zoning
district. It appears that as the building envelope of Lot 1 lies only five feet from the westerly lot
line, the home built on this lot would almost certainly be in violation of this requirement, though
this would not be known until specific building plans are submitted for review.
In Golden Valley, the R-1 zoning district is a Single Family Zoning District. This area is zoned R-2,
which is a Moderate Density Residential Zoning District. However, the purpose of the R-2 district is
to "provide for single and two-family dwellings." The Planning Commission, as part of their findings,
determined that the distance from the proposed single family home on Lot 1 to the westerly lot
line would be in violation of this requirement and felt that the existing single family home on the
neighboring property would be impacted by the construction of a new building only five feet from
the lot line.
ACCESS ONTO HAROLD AVENUE
Five curb cuts and driveways are proposed to replace the two driveways that currently exist.
Current zoning allows for a twin-home to be built on each lot. The Applicant has stated that this
would allow him to construct up to four driveways by right and that the current request only
increases by one the number of driveways that would be constructed. Staff believes that as part
of a twin-home development a request would be made by the City to consolidate the two
driveways on each lot, therefore maintaining two access points onto Harold Avenue. As a
Municipal State Aid collector street, Harold Avenue carries approximately 1,200 vehicle trips per
day. Engineering Staff raised concerns regarding the impact of additional driveways on a street
where traffic volumes could increase through additional development within the Harold Avenue
corridor.
In a pre-application meeting, Staff suggested the Applicant pursue the option of providing a
public street with cul-de-sac to serve all of the proposed homes, thereby minimizing the curb cuts
onto Harold Avenue and centralizing the utilities under a newly constructed public right-of-way.
Staff also felt this would establish a pattern for the area that could be replicated to the west
along Harold Avenue in the future. In front of the Planning Commission, the Applicant
commented that the construction of a cul-de-sac would significantly increase the costs of the
project, requiring the construction of additional homes, an increase in the percentage of
impervious surface, and greater tree loss. The Applicant displayed an option that clustered eight
homes around a public cul-de-sac and stated that it was not the preferred concept. The Planning
Commission suggested the Applicant consider shortening the length of the cul-de-sac in order to
reduce the percentage of impervious surface and to allow for greater tree preservation along
Highway 55.
While the Planning Commission was intrigued by the idea of a denser neighborhood fronting on
Lions Park along Harold Avenue, they ultimately felt the proposed PUD concept in its current
form of narrow lots with small side yard setbacks was not compatible with the surrounding single
family homes and recommended denial.
Evaluation
City Code establishes standards for PUDs, which are laid out in the Staff report to the Planning
Commission. In addition, City Code establishes findings that must be made by the City when
creating a PUD. The Council makes the following findings pursuant to City Code Section 11.55,
Subd. 5(E):
1. The PUD plan does not achieve a higher quality of site planning and design as it simply
replaces two existing single family homes with five new single family homes on narrower lots.
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 does not meet the PUD Intent and Purpose provision and would likely result in
conflict with at least one PUD ordinance provision of minimum required side yard setbacks
for principal buildings. Also, the proposed easement on the east side of the property should
be 25 feet in width as opposed to 20 feet as proposed.

Re: Marie's Woods PUD
Golden Valley, MN
TE#14-103
This property, and its entire block, is currently zoned R-2 Moderate Density Residential Zoning.
This zoning district allows single family homes, twin homes and townhomes, up to a maximum
density of 8 units/acre. Our proposed single family development has a density of 3.1 units/acre.
We are proposing five single family homes, with lot width and lot setback variances.
Two twin homes (four units) could be built on this site without variances. The site density would
be only slightly higher whether four twin home units or five single family homes were built on
this site. The building coverage, impervious area, site grading, tree removal, number of drives,
and utility service construction would be very similar with the construction of either four twin
home or five single family homes on this site.
We believe this five lot single family development will be a high quality project and an asset to
this neighborhood and the City. The proposed Tree Conservation Area will protect a substantial
portion of this property. This PUD will meet the City's housing density goals, and satisfy the
need in Golden Valley for a variety of affordable residential housing types. This project is
taking an underutilized site and converting it into a beautiful single family residential
development for five new families to live in Golden Valley.

properties into a new five-lot single family development
Zimmerman explained the applicant's proposal to develop five single homes on two
existing single family lots totaling 1.6 acres. He stated that the density would be 3.125
units per acre and that the R-2 zoning district allows up to 8 units per acre. He noted that
all five proposed new homes would have direct access onto Harold Avenue and that the
applicant is proposing a tree conservation easement area on the back (north) half of the
properties.
Zimmerman discussed how this PUD proposal varies from the R-2 zoning district
requirements. He stated that the lot width requirement in the R-2 zoning district is 100
feet. Four of the proposed lots would be 42 feet wide and one lot would be 55.2 feet
wide. He stated that the side yard setback requirement in the R-2 zoning district is 15
feet. The applicant is proposing a 5 foot setback on the west side, and an 8 foot setback
on the east side of each lot. Zimmerman added that there is also a requirement in the
PUD section of the Zoning Code not being met, which states that no building shall be
closer than its height to the side yard property line abutting a single family zoning district.
Zimmerman stated that staff is recommending denial of the PUD proposal because it
does not meet the necessary findings to approve a PUD. Specifically, it does not achieve
a high quality of site planning, it fails to preserve high quality features, it does not
demonstrate efficient use of land, and it does not meet the PUD Intent and Purpose
provision.
Kluchka referred to the PUD language stating that no building shall be closer than its
height to the side yard property line and asked if the intent was not to have a building
next to an R-1 property. Zimmerman stated that the City can't offer flexibility from the
PUD requirements like it can from the underlying zoning code requirements. Segelbaum
said it is an interpretation issue. He noted that the language says that no building shall
be closer than its height to the side yard property line abutting a single family zoning
district. In this case the subject property abuts an R-2 zoning district. Zimmerman agreed
that an interpretation is needed and added that both single family homes and twin homes
are allowed in the R-2 zoning district. Segelbaum asked if it is appropriate for the
Planning Commission to offer an interpretation. Zimmerman said yes.
Baker asked about the distance between the existing home at 7236 Harold Avenue and
the proposed new house on Lot 1. Zimmerman said there would be approximately 15
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 22, 2014

feet between the existing house (7236 Harold Avenue) and the proposed new house on
Lot 1.
Segelbaum referred to the site plan and noted the staggered front yard setback lines. He
asked if the applicant will have control over where the houses are placed on the lots, or if
the City would just be approving a building envelope area. Zimmerman stated that the
PUD Permit could say where the building envelopes can be located.
Segelbaum asked if a cul-de-sac plan is viable. Zimmerman said staff has seen plans for
a cul-de-sac with seven or eight homes. He said there is some concern about the
neighbors objecting to the density and there has been some push-back from the
applicant about the cost of the cul-de-sac plan, but a cul-de-sac would be staff's
preference.
Pete Knaeble, Applicant, said he has spent months trying to appropriately develop this
site. He handed out drawings of other options he has proposed that were not looked at
favorably by the City Council. He referred to the cul-de-sac option, and said he likes the
idea of more density, but there are some significant issues that are not appropriate for
this site, and the neighbors are adamant about not wanting a cul-de-sac. He added that
the cul-de-sac option would also place the homes closer to Highway 55. He said there
will be five unique, custom built homes and he already has three interested families who
like the cluster of trees in the back, and the park in the front. He said he disagrees with
staff comments especially that the proposal does not meet the findings necessary to
approve a PUD. He said this type of project is a perfect use for a PUD and the neighbors
will support this proposal because of the high home values.
Knaeble referred to staff's concern about five curb cuts on Harold Avenue and said he
would be able to build two twin homes on this property without any approvals, which tells
him that he is entitled to four curb cuts. He is asking for one more curb cut which should
not be an issue.
Knaeble referred to the wooded area along Highway 55 on the north part of these
properties and said he thinks it is an important buffer to this neighborhood that is being
downplayed and discouraged. He added that he thinks this green area along Highway 55
should be protected from Glenwood Avenue to Winnetka Avenue because the green
space is critical. He stated that these trees are not just low quality trees, there are some
high quality trees that have a high value and are an important part of this proposal. He
said 70% of the trees will remain and 60% of the trees would be in the proposed tree
conservation easement area.
Knaeble stated that another issue with the cul-de-sac would be the amount of impervious
surface. He said he is proposing 16% impervious surface coverage, and the cul-de-sac
would be double that amount. He stated that the City Engineer has said there are
downstream flooding issues and he thinks adding additional impervious surface is not a
correct response to that issue.

Knaeble referred to staff's comment about the majority of the view of the proposed new
homes from the street would be garage doors. He disagreed with that and showed the
Commissioners drawings of possible types of homes that could be built and reiterated
that the homes will be custom designed.
Knaeble referred to the findings used to approve a PUD and said he disagrees with staff
stating that he doesn't meet four of them. He said he thinks this is a unique project that
does have a high quality site plan that preserves and protects site features by placing
half of the property in an easement area, and protects wetland areas and steep slopes.
He said he is shocked by staff's recommendation and he doesn't know what else he
could do above and beyond what he is proposing. He stated that staff needs to
remember the scenic view that will be protected along Highway 55. Knaeble referred to
the finding regarding the efficient use of land and said the way he designed this proposal
couldn't be any more efficient because he is using existing streets and utilities. He said
from his perspective, he is being efficient because a cul-de-sac would be $250,000 and it
is not necessary to spend that money for a cul-de-sac that the City would have to own
and maintain forever.
Segelbaum asked Knaeble to comment on the PUD language which states that no
building shall be closer than its height to the side yard property line. Knaeble said he
spoke with his attorney and other planners and engineers, and they all think that
language pertains to taller buildings being placed next to single family residential
properties. He said he thinks that part of the PUD language is not appropriate for this
development.
Segelbaum asked Knaeble about the distance between the houses. Knaeble said the
distance varies from 13 to 20 feet.
Segelbaum asked Knaeble to discuss other reasons he has discounted the cul-de-sac
option. Knaeble said he wants to redevelop this property, and he may end up doing the
cul-de-sac option, but he doesn't think it's appropriate in this case. He said the lot sizes
wouldn't meet the standard in the R-1 zoning district, a cul-de-sac would double the
amount of impervious surface, and would not be a good use of this site. He added that if
Highway 55 wasn't an issue he would agree with the cul-de-sac option, but the homes
won't be as valuable if they are placed closer to Highway 55 so he thinks his current
proposal is better.
Cera asked Knaeble if he has given any thought to acquiring additional lots. Knaeble
said yes. He said the neighbors to the east are not in a position to sell, and he hasn't
pursued the neighbor to the west. He reiterated that he thinks small, single family lots are
the best way to develop this area, not multiple cul-de-sacs that remove the buffer of trees
along Highway 55.
Waldhauser asked Knaeble why the neighbors have said they don't like the cul-de-sac
option. Knaeble said that the average value of the homes would be significantly lower
with seven lots on a cul-de-sac, closer to Highway 55, than five smaller single family lots.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 22, 2014
Page 7
Waldhauser asked about the size of the proposed homes. Knaeble said they would be
approximately 2,000 to 2,400 square feet in size.
Cera asked Knaeble if he has considered building a shorter cul-de-sac, further away
from Highway 55. Knaeble said yes, but from a cost and design point of view, it is more
efficient and better for the environment to develop five lots.
Baker noted that Knaeble said he would not be able to sell the proposed homes because
they would be closer to Highway 55, but then he said he wouldn't consider fewer homes
in a shorter cul-de-sac format that would place the homes further away from Highway 55.
Knaeble said the cul-de-sac would still have to be built, and he doesn't think that is a
good trade off. He questioned building a new cul-de-sac to serve five homes when the
infrastructure already exists on Harold Avenue. Baker stated that of the nine homes on
the north side of Harold Avenue, only one of them is close to Highway 55 which tells him
there is a desire to build away from Highway 55. Knaeble agreed and added that there is
also a desire to save trees, and to build the homes closer to the park. Baker said there
appears to be little market for homes close to Highway 55, so the idea of a tree
conservation easement is not so much an amenity, as it is a necessity to make the
proposed development marketable. Knaeble reiterated that the view of the trees along
Highway 55 is important and should not be downplayed.
Kluchka asked who currently owns the properties in this proposal. Knaeble said he owns
the lot on the west at 7218 Harold Avenue and Fred Gross owns the lot on the east at
7200 Harold Avenue. Kluchka asked Knaeble if the City is asking him to develop these
properties. Knaeble said no. Kluchka stated that nobody is asking for these properties to
be redeveloped except for the people who own them. Knaeble said he doesn't think
that's true because the City rezoned these properties to R-2 to encourage higher density
and additional housing in this area.
Kluchka opened the public hearing.
Larry Kueny, 7303 Ridgeway Road, said nobody in the neighborhood wants the cul-de-
sac option. He said the ideal plan would be to tear down the two existing homes and
build two new homes, but the properties are zoned R-2 and the City wants higher
density. He said the houses will be very close together, but a good architect can make it
look nice. He said he loves the existing buffer of trees on these properties and if they are
cut down he will be able to see and hear every car on Highway 55. He said the proposed
plan isn't perfect, but he supports it.
Segelbaum asked Kueny if he is concerned about the parking situation in the
neighborhood with the proposed additional curb cuts and the number of events that are
held at Lions Park. Kueny said no. He stated that there are four softball tournaments a
year and two or three soccer tournaments a year, but the parking is not a problem by his
end of the park.

September 22, 2014
Page 8
Perry Thom, 320 Louisiana Avenue North, said he wouldn't be concerned about the
parking issues with the addition of five driveways because parking isn't allowed on the
north side of Harold Avenue so nothing would be affected. He said he really appreciates
Knaeble's efforts to include the neighbors in this proposal. He said he loves the
neighborhood and there is an opportunity to have a real gem here. He said homes in a
cul-de-sac would be less than desirable. He said they would not be high valued homes
and he sees that as nothing but a drag on the neighborhood, and a transient opportunity.
He said the City forcing the community to take homes they don't want isn't appropriate
and he doesn't appreciate the cul-de-sac idea because it will eliminate almost all of the
trees and lower property values.
Fred Gross, 7200 Harold Avenue, said he has been renting out this property for the last
13 years. He said he is ambivalent about selling his house because if this proposal
doesn't happen he will just continue to rent out the house. He said the irony of this whole
thing is that the best time to approve a proposal is when you have a good proposal, even
though it doesn't meet all of the requirements. He said there isn't one cottonwood tree on
these properties and thinks this would be a wonderful project.
Lynn Schneider, 310 Louisiana Avenue North, said she loves the wetland area and the
buffer of the trees, and she thinks it's pretty when she sees trees on Highway 55.
Fred Gross, 7200 Harold Avenue, stated that the last proposal for this site was
recommended for approval by staff but was denied unanimously by the Planning
Commission, and now this proposal is being recommended for denial by staff. He said to
look at the viability of the project and approve it.
Seeing and hearing no one else wishing to comment, Kluchka closed the public hearing.
Cera said he thinks the Planning Commission's concerns are the width of the lots and
the setbacks. He asked Knaeble if he had considered four lots instead of five. Knaeble
said he did consider four lots, but he thinks five lots fit, are appropriate, and maximize
the density. Cera asked if four lots would allow for larger setbacks. Knaeble said he
doesn't think there is a setback issue. He said his proposal is not unlike the recent
development on Rhode Island Avenue just down the street. Those homes are 15 feet
apart, and his proposed homes would be 13 feet apart.
Kluchka asked the Commissioners how they felt about four lots, versus five lots. Baker
said he would like to hear about the applicant's other options. Segelbaum said this is the
option the applicant prefers, and he would like to focus on this option in front of them.
Waldhauser said she believes part of the reason the City is trying to encourage higher
density is for affordability, not just for increased density. She said it concerns her that
when the City has these opportunities to increase density they continue to keep trying to
maintain the same size and the same price point for new homes as the homes in the
surrounding neighborhood. She said she can understand why the developer and the
neighbors don't want that, but it flies in the face of the goal of increasing density. She
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 22, 2014
Page 9
said she would like to have a conversation as a City, and not just as each new
development comes up. Baker agreed and said that is why he wants to see the other
options. He said the City needs other affordable options. Segelbaum said he doesn't
want to discourage the conversation, he just wants to explore the options amongst the
Commission, not necessarily with the applicant, because the applicant has submitted
what he wants to do. Kluchka said unless there is an economic incentive from the City,
more affordable houses aren't going to be built. Baker said affordable housing has many
euphemisms. He said he is not talking about low income, subsidized housing, just
something other than $500,000 homes. Kluchka said the economic reality is that a house
can't be torn down and replaced with a new $200,000 house and still be profitable to a
developer. He added that the expectation of replacing homes with lower priced homes is
not the right expectation to have.
Cera asked about the price of the recently constructed homes on Rhode Island Avenue.
Zimmerman said he thinks they were approximately $350,000 to $400,000. (Clarification
after the fact, the homes referred to on Rhode Island Avenue sold for $400,000 to
$450,000.)
Kluchka asked about the width of lots and the setbacks in the Laurel Ponds proposal on
Pennsylvania Avenue. Zimmerman said the lots in that proposal are 36 feet wide with 10
feet of separation between the houses. Cera stated that the Laurel Ponds proposal is a
transitional site and that this proposal is in the middle of a single family residential
neighborhood.
Waldhauser said she understands the economic difficulties with the cul-de-sac, but it
would seem much more appealing to her to have a couple of cul-de-sac developments
than row housing.
Baker said he is a fan of trees, and he believes they are a buffer for the neighborhood,
but he feels that saving the trees isn't driving the decision to build the houses further
away from Highway 55, there just isn't a desire to build the houses right next to the
highway. Kluchka agreed and added that asking the City to maintain a tree conservation
area isn't viable when the houses would more than likely be built further away from
Highway 55 anyway. Zimmerman added that the City isn't saying that the trees aren't
important or should be removed. The City just doesn't want to be responsible for the
conservation easement when private covenants could accomplish the same goal.
Kluchka asked the Commissioners how to interpret the language that states no building
shall be closer than its height to the side yard property line. Waldhauser said she feels a
residential PUD is very different from other types of PUDs. She questioned what should
regulate height versus setback for this property because in the R-1 district there is a tie
between the height and the setback so she is not sure what to use as a guideline in this
case. Kluchka said there was two years of research and debate on correct setbacks and
massing management, and the character of neighborhoods. He said he'd rather see a
high quality development of the area as a whole, and he is not sure this proposal fits.
Baker agreed and said having homes that are 13 feet apart is dramatically different from
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 22, 2014
Page 10
what is there now. Kluchka said he thinks the PUD language regarding height and
setbacks is relevant. Segelbaum said he thinks the height/setback language was meant
for a larger development PUD next to a single family home. He said this isn't a large
development, but it is right up next to a single family home. Baker said they need to think
about ways to encourage overlay districts to make this type of development more
possible, but this proposal doesn't fit today's situation.
Kluchka questioned if the City would rather have this design, or a twin home design as
intended in the R-2 zoning district. Baker said a twin home might be a more efficient use
of the land. Kluchka agreed. Waldhauser stated that developers have said it is much
more difficult to market a twin home than a small house on a small lot.
Segelbaum said he's not sure what type of development would fit here. He said it is clear
the neighbors don't want a cul-de-sac, but that doesn't mean there aren't other possible
uses, including not developing it at all.
Kluchka questioned if this proposal rises to the level of a PUD in terms of allowing
flexibility, but also getting something for the City in return. He said for him, this proposal
does not rise to that level and he would rather see the property used as intended for twin
homes, or maybe four single family homes instead of five. Cera agreed that the
development doesn't feel complete and maybe if the proposal included more properties
he might feel differently. Waldhauser said she doesn't think that the City can ask a
developer to wait until every property is for sale. Baker said that is why he is interested in
overlay districts. He said in its current context, this proposal is hard to accept.
Blum referred to the quality of site planning and design as required by the PUD
ordinance and noted that the applicant has said that language is subjective. He said he
thinks one way that could be more objective, is by comparing the proposal to other
homes in the area. He said that this proposal doesn't rise to the same level of quality as
other homes near the park. He added that this proposal also achieves no higher density,
or at least the level of density the City would like to see.
Kluchka summarized some of the potential findings including: the Planning
Commission's interpretation relative to this proposal, is that Subdivision 3 in the PUD
ordinance does not offer flexibility in this instance, the appropriateness of the setbacks
for the planned height in an R-2 zoning district, and the proposed easement on the east
side of the property needs to be wider than proposed.
MOVED by Baker, seconded by Cera and motion carried unanimously to recommend
denial of Preliminary PUD Plan for PUD #119, Marie's Woods based on the following
findings:
1. The PUD plan does not achieve a higher quality of site planning and design as it
simply replaces two existing single family homes with five new single family homes
on narrower lots.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 22, 2014
Page 11
2. The PUD plan does not meet the PUD Intent and Purpose provision and would likely
result in conflict with at least one PUD ordinance provision of minimum required side
yard setbacks for principal buildings. Also, the proposed easement on the east side of
the property should be 25 feet in width as opposed to 20 feet as proposed.

Subject: Informal Public Hearing— Preliminary PUD Plan for Marie's Woods PUD No. 119—
7200 & 7218 Harold Avenue — Peter Kneable, Applicant
Background
The Applicant, Peter Knaeble, is seeking approval of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Permit to
develop five single family homes on two existing single family lots. The existing single family homes
would be demolished and five new homes would be constructed.
The property is zoned Moderate Density Residential (R-2) and guided for long-term Low Density
use on the General Land Use Plan map. The total area of the two lots is 1.6 acres. The site is
bounded by Highway 55 to the north, by Harold Avenue to the south, and is located across the
street from Lions Park. There are single family homes on either side of the proposed project.
Given the frontage of the two existing lots, without a PUD the site could accommodate two single
family homes, two twin-homes, or one to two townhomes for a range of two to eight total units.
The R-2 Zoning District allows single and two-family homes at a moderate density of up to eight
units per acre. The Low Density land use in the Comprehensive Plan allows for a density of less
than five units per acre. At 3.125 units per acre, this proposal is consistent with both the Zoning
and the Comprehensive Plan.
Summary of Proposal
The proposed PUD would allow the Applicant to replat the existing two properties into five lots
that would run north-south between Highway 55 and Harold Avenue. The result would be long
narrow lots with five single family homes built on the southern end. The Applicant proposes to
establish a Tree Conservation Easement across the northern portion of the site.
As proposed, the five homes would be staggered in the their front yard setbacks—anywhere from
35 to 45 feet—with the intent to break up the visual effect of a wall of garages along Harold
Avenue. With a 30 foot building pad and a two car garage, the majority of the front elevation of
each home would consist of a garage door.
Five curb cuts and driveways would replace the two driveways that currently exist. Current
zoning allows for a twin-home to be built on each lot, so the proposed number of driveways
increases the number that could be constructed under more conventional development by one
driveway.
Four of the lots would be 43 feet wide and one lot would be 55.2 feet wide to accommodate an
existing stormwater pipe. Side yard setbacks are proposed to be 5 feet on the western edge of
each lot and 8 feet of the eastern edge, except for the wider Lot 5 which would have a setback of
20 of the far eastern edge of the site.
The proposed Tree Conservation Easement would range from 120 to 175 feet deep across all five
lots nearest to Highway 55. A preliminary tree inventory indicated approximately 30 trees in this
area, many of them cottonwoods.
In a pre-application meeting, Staff suggested the Applicant pursue the option of providing a
public street with cul-de-sac to serve all of the proposed homes, thereby minimizing the curb cuts
onto Harold Avenue and centralizing the utilities under a newly constructed public right-of-way.
Staff also felt this would establish a pattern for the area that could be replicated north of Harold
Avenue in the future. The Applicant evaluated this option and has chosen to apply with a
different layout.
The Applicant presented the proposal at a Neighborhood Meeting on Monday, September 15.
One resident attended (residing at 7303 Ridgeway Road). In general, the attendee was supportive
of the plan. He stated that he did not support a cul-de-sac plan.

PUD 119 - Site Map
Land Use and Zoning Considerations
The Moderate (R-2) Density Residential Zoning District regulates various aspects of development.
As a PUD, the City can offer flexibility from the regular zoning requirements in order to achieve a
better development.
The following table summarizes how closely the requirements of the R-2 Zoning District are met
under the current proposal:
R-2 Zoning District Marie's Woods PUD 119
Dimensional Standards
Lot area 11,000 square feet From 12,225 to 18,668 sq. feet
Lot width 100' Four lots at 43'; one lot at 55.2'
Front yard setback 35' From to 35' to 45'
Side yard setback 15' 5' on the west, 8' on the east
Rear yard setback 20% of lot depth Meets requirements
Density Up to 8 units per acre 3.125 units per acre
Lot coverage 30% of lot area maximum Meets requirements
Impervious surfaces 50% maximum Meets requirements
In addition, there are certain standards and guidelines provided in Subdivision 3 of the PUD section
of the Zoning Code to which flexibility cannot be offered. Subdivision 3(C)(1) states that no
principal building shall be closer than its height to the rear or side property line when such line
abuts a single family zoning district. It appears that as the building envelope of Lot 1 lies only five
feet from the westerly lot line, the home built on this lot would almost certainly be in violation of
this requirement, though this would not be known until specific building plans are submitted for
review.
Engineering and Fire Safety Considerations
As is standard practice for development proposals, plans for this proposal were reviewed by the
City's Engineering Division to ensure the site can be adequately served by public utilities and that
traffic issues are resolved. A memorandum from the Engineering Division that addresses access,
easements, utilities, grading and stormwater management, and tree preservation is attached.
It should be noted that under the City's Subdivision Ordinance, 10 foot drainage and utility
easements are required on all plat boundaries and 12 foot easements centered on all interior lines.
The proposal indicates a only a 5 foot drainage and utility easement along the westerly lot line and
the 13 foot easements on the interior lot lines are offset rather than centered.
The Fire Department reviewed this proposal and confirms that the lots as proposed meet the
requirements of the Minnesota State Fire Code.
Justification for Consideration as a PUD
The PUD process is an optional method of regulating land use in order to permit flexibility in uses
allowed, setbacks, height, parking requirements, and number of buildings on a lot. Staff has
determined that this application does not qualify as a PUD because it does not achieve the
following standards established in City Code:
• Achieve a high quality of site planning, design, landscaping, and building materials which
are compatible with the existing and planned land uses.
• Encourage preservation and protection of desirable site characteristics and open space and
protection of sensitive environmental features including steep slopes, trees, scenic views,
water ways, wetlands, and lakes.
• Encourage efficient and effective use of land, open space, streets, utilities, and other public
facilities.
• Achieve development consistent with the City's redevelopment plans and goals.
In order to be approved as a PUD, the City must be able to make the following findings:
1. Quality Site Planning. The PUD plan does not achieve a higher quality of site planning and
design as it simply replaces two existing single family homes with five new single family
homes on narrower lots.
2. Preservation. The PUD plan fails to preserve one of the more desirable aspects of the site—
namely, the mature oaks near Harold Avenue—and instead proposes to protect lower
quality trees at the rear of the site closer to Highway 55. It does protect the existing
wetland on the site, but this would be required regardless of the type of development.
3. Efficient– Effective. The PUD plan does not include efficient and effective use of the land in
that it utilizes five individual curb cuts and driveways onto Harold Avenue within a short
distance rather than consolidating both access and utilities.
4. Compatibility. The PUD Plan results in development compatible with adjacent uses and is
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and redevelopment plans and goals.
5. General Health. The PUD plan is consistent with preserving and improving the general
health, safety and general welfare of the people of the City.
6. Meets Requirements. The PUD plan does not meet the PUD Intent and Purpose provision
and would likely result in conflict with at least one PUD ordinance provision of minimum
required side yard setbacks for principal buildings.
Recommendation
Essentially, the Applicant is asking for flexibility in the required lot width and side yard setbacks in
order to construct five single family homes on narrow lots instead of the twin-home structures
(four units total) or townhome structures (up to eight units total) that would be allowed by right
in the current zoning district. In exchange, the Applicant is offering to the City a Tree
Conservation Easement across the back half of the site, which—while it provides some assurance
of permanent tree preservation—places the burden for long-term monitoring and enforcement
on the City and protects only lower quality species.
The number of new curb cuts along Harold Avenue, a collector street onto which residents would
be backing their vehicles; a new streetscape of five garage faces along a frontage of 227 feet; and
the loss of seven mature oak trees—in addition to the side yard violation that would likely be
created—seem to outweigh any advantages provided by the creation of this PUD.
Staff recommends denial of the Preliminary Plan for Marie's Woods PUD No. 119.

Subject: Preliminary PUD #119—7200 and 7218 Harold Avenue— Marie's Woods
The Golden Valley Fire Department has reviewed the preliminary PUD plans submitted on August
22, 2014 for 7200 and 7218 Harold Avenue— Marie's Woods. This is the fourth version proposed for
this site(s) which included a duplex design, a flag lot design, a cul-de-sac design and now this
proposal. Even though this is a compact design it does meet the requirements of the Minnesota
State Fire Code provided that the homes are constructed as shown.
Listed below are the fire department comments:
1. Lot 1 as proposed meets the requirements of Minnesota State Fire Code.
2. Lot 2 as proposed meets the requirements of Minnesota State Fire Code.
3. Lot 3 as proposed meets the requirements of Minnesota State Fire Code.
4. Lot 4 as proposed meets the requirements of Minnesota State Fire Code.
5. Lot 5 as proposed meets the requirements of Minnesota State Fire Code.

Subject: Preliminary PUD Plan —Marie's Woods (2nd Submittal)—
7200 & 7218 Harold Avenue
Engineering staff has reviewed the application for a Planned Unit Development (PUD), called
Marie's Woods, located at 7200 and 7218 Harold Avenue. This is the second Preliminary PUD Plan
submitted by the Developer for this site. The new plan involves the demolition of two existing
homes and the construction of five new single-family homes fronting on Harold Avenue. The
comments contained in this review are based on plans submitted to the City on August 22, 2014.
Engineering comments are as follows:
1. Site Plan and Access
a. The Developer is proposing five curb cuts for driveway access onto Harold Avenue.
The new driveways must meet City standards including the installation of concrete
aprons. A City Right-of-Way Management Permit is required for the construction
of each driveway.
b. Harold Avenue was reconstructed by the City as part of the 2012 Pavement
Management Project. Since the pavement is less than five years old, the Right-of-
Way Management Ordinance requires an advanced level of restoration. According
to the City's restoration standards, cutting open a pavement less than five years
old requires a full-width pavement mill and overlay at a length determined by the
City Engineer. The extent of the mill and overlay will be determined by the City
Engineer at the time the Developer applies for a Right-of-Way Permit to install the
driveways and utilities.
G:\Developments-Private\Marie's Woods-7218 Harold\Memos\Memo_PreliminaryPUD_Review_2nd_submittal.docx
c. Harold Avenue is a Municipal State Aid collector street with traffic volumes around
1,200 vehicle trips per day. Staff is concerned about adding driveways on a street
where traffic volumes could increase as development occurs within the Harold
Avenue corridor. Staff recommends that the Developer explore alternative site
designs that would consolidate access onto Harold, including a previous option
shown to staff that includes a public street with cul-de-sac.
2. The existing homes will be demolished to make way for the proposed development. The
Developer must obtain all necessary permits to demolish the homes and cut off the
existing utility services.
3. Preliminary Plat
a. The existing properties proposed for development are part of Auditor's
Subdivision Number 322. It appears there are no platted easements across these
properties. City records show that the City obtained an easement for drainage and
utility purposes in 1985 over the east 15 feet of the property at 7200 Harold
Avenue for the construction of an 18-inch storm sewer pipe within a 24-inch
casing pipe. According to the record drawing, the pipe is up to 12 feet deep.
Maintenance access to this storm sewer pipe must be preserved as part of this
development. The Developer is proposing to dedicate a new 20-foot easement as
shown on the preliminary plat. However, the City recommends an easement of
25 feet to accommodate future excavation and maintenance near the proposed
home (the easement would be twice as wide as the pipe is deep). In order to
preserve access to the pipe outlet, and the integrity of the pipe, the existing trees
would have to be removed and new trees would not be permitted within this
easement area. The existing 15-foot drainage and utility easement may be vacated
as part of the development process.
b. There is an existing wetland on the property located at 7200 Harold Avenue that,
upon platting, will be situated on Lot 5 of the proposed development. The
Developer will be required to dedicate a drainage and utility easement over the
wetland that is a minimum of 10 feet upland of the delineated wetland edge, in
order to accommodate a 10-foot native vegetation buffer zone. The buffer
requirement is discussed in more detail in the stormwater management section of
this review.
c. The City's Subdivision Ordinance requires 10-foot drainage and utility easements
on all plat boundaries and 12-foot easements centered on all interior lot lines. The
final plat for this development must include easements on all property lines
consistent with the City's Subdivision Ordinance.
d. The proposed development is adjacent to Trunk Highway 55 and therefore MnDOT
will review the plans and may provide additional comments.
4. Utilities
a. The City's water system that provides service to these properties has adequate
capacity to accommodate the proposed development.
b. The proposed development is within a sanitary sewershed that is tributary to
system capacity issues in several locations including near the intersection of Laurel
Avenue and Turners Crossroad. The City's sanitary sewer is effectively at capacity
in this location and there is minimal capacity available for future redevelopment
along the 1-394 corridor unless inflow and infiltration can be reduced throughout
the sewershed. The City is putting plans in place to reduce the inflow and
infiltration in the City's portion of the sanitary sewer system over the next several
years. In addition, the proposed number of units at this location will likely
contribute minimal wastewater flows to the overall system. Therefore, the
number of connections to the City's sanitary sewer system should be acceptable as
proposed.
c. There are existing sanitary sewer and water services serving the existing homes.
Plans show that the existing services can be utilized by Lot 1 and Lot 5. New
services will need to be constructed to serve the remaining lots. It appears the
Developer is proposing to consolidate the services into one pavement cut to
reduce the impacts to Harold Avenue. However, staff has concerns about the
grouping and alignments of the new services, and private sewer easements would
need to be recorded against the affected properties. The Developer is encouraged
to consider alternative designs for the utility services.
d. The City has a Sanitary Sewer Inflow and Infiltration (1/1) Reduction Ordinance. City
records indicate that the property at 7200 Harold Avenue has obtained a
Certificate of Compliance with the 1/1 Ordinance. The Developer has entered into a
deposit agreement with the City for the property at 7218 Harold Avenue to ensure
future compliance. All existing and new sewer services in this development must
be inspected by the City after construction, and must achieve compliance with the
City's 1/1 Ordinance, prior to occupancy of the homes.
5. Grading and Stormwater Management
a. The proposed development is within the Sweeney Lake sub-watershed of the
Bassett Creek Watershed. However, due to the size of the development, the
project does not meet the threshold for review by the Bassett Creek Watershed
Management Commission (BCWMC). Sweeney Lake is listed as an impaired water
for nutrients (phosphorus) by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. Review by
the City will include an evaluation for compliance with the Sweeney Lake Total
Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Implementation Plan. The Developer is encouraged
to incorporate best management practices into the site that will assist the City in
meeting its TMDL goals for Sweeney Lake.
b. There is a wetland on the property being developed and therefore the Wetland
Conservation Act will apply. The Developer submitted a wetland report as part of a
previous plan submittal. The City issued a Notice of Decision on June 9, 2014
approving the wetland delineation and report. According to the grading plan
submitted,there are no proposed impacts to the wetland. However,the overall
stormwater management plan for the site, as well as the individual stormwater
plan for Lots 4 and 5, must show protection of the wetland, and care should be
taken during construction to ensure that the wetland is clearly marked and
protected at all times.
c. The Developer is proposing a buffer of native vegetation around the portion of the
wetland within the PUD, consistent with the BCWMC's Watershed Management
Plan and the City's Surface Water Management Plan. This buffer must be a
minimum 10 feet in width and the proposed vegetation type must be shown and
described on the stormwater plan or landscape plan for the development. The
Developer will be required to deposit a financial security guaranteeing proper
establishment of the buffer and its maintenance for the first three growing
seasons. Although proposed to be located in a public easement, the wetland
buffer will be owned and maintained by the Developer or future owner of Lots 4
and 5, respectively.
d. The preliminary plans show that the normal water elevation of the wetland is
controlled by an 18-inch reinforced concrete pipe that is located within a public
easement on the east side of the property. The pipe provides drainage from the
wetland to the south into the City's storm sewer system in Harold Avenue. City
records indicate that the pipe is owned and maintained by the City. The City will
inspect the pipe outlet in the wetland to determine if it meets current City
standards. The City will also inspect the entire length of pipe to determine if the
material, size, and condition meet City standards. If it is determined that the pipe
does not meet City standards or the needs of the development,the developer may
be required to make the necessary repairs or construct a new pipe as part of the
project. It is anticipated that the City will continue to own and maintain this storm
sewer pipe upon completion of the development.
e. It appears the development will include a two-phased grading approach. In the
first phase, the overall site will be graded to cut down the existing hill in the
middle of the development, construct a berm along Highway 55, and prepare the
lots for construction. In the second phase, individual lots will be graded by each
builder as the lots are sold. The Developer will be required to obtain a City of
Golden Valley Stormwater Management Permit for the overall site grading. In
addition, the Developer or Builders will be required to obtain individual
Stormwater Management Permits for each lot at the time of permitting for home
construction. A stormwater management plan that meets City standards is
required as part of the Stormwater Management Permit submittal.
f. This PUD is subject to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's NPDES
Construction Stormwater Permit. A copy of this permit must be provided to the
City, prior to issuance of any permits to begin work on site.
g. The Developer must submit stormwater calculations to the City showing how it
determined the calculated high water level of the wetland. This elevation is used
to help determine the lowest floor elevation of the homes, which must be 2 feet
above the calculated high water level. The overall preliminary grading plan
appears to meet this standard. However, if each lot is custom graded and plans are
subject to change, the Developer or Builders must ensure that each stormwater
management plan submitted meets this requirement.
h. New principal structures must be set back 25 feet from the delineated wetland
edge. The plans submitted are in conformance with this requirement, and the
Builder must ensure that individual stormwater management plans for Lots 4 and
5 is also in conformance.
6. Tree Preservation Plan
a. The two-phase grading approach will include a requirement for a Tree
Preservation permit at the time of overall site grading, and separate Tree
Preservation permits for each lot at the time of home construction. The Developer
has submitted a Preliminary Tree Preservation Plan showing the removal of a
number of significant trees. A tabular inventory of the significant trees proposed
to be removed and replaced must also be submitted. The City Forester will review
the plan in more detail to determine if additional information is required before
Final PUD Plan submittal.
b. Tree Conservation Easement—The Developer has proposed the dedication of a
tree conservation easement in the north portion of the site. Typically, the City has
required tree preservation easements and conservation easements over areas
containing high quality trees and vegetation, or shoreland management areas
adjacent to lakes and creeks. According to the tree inventory submitted by the
Developer, most of the higher quality trees, including several large oaks ranging
from 20 to 36 inches, are located in the south portion of the site and will be
removed during the preliminary grading phase discussed above. The trees located
in the proposed tree conservation easement area (north portion of the site) are
generally of lower quality. These trees include cottonwoods and other softwoods,
and only a few oaks and maples. The easement is not within a shoreland
management area. In addition, the City's experience with such easements is that
they can be very difficult and labor intensive to oversee and enforce in perpetuity.
Therefore, staff recommends against the dedication of a public tree conservation
easement, as it does not appear to be warranted in this case.
7. The Developer must obtain Stormwater Management, Right-of-Way Management, Tree
Preservation, Sewer and Water, Demolition, and any other permits that may be required
for development of this site

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 512.50, sudb. 3.I. 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 S11.55.

Executive SummaryFor Action on
Golden Valley City Council Meeting
November 18, 2014
Agenda Item
6. B. METRO Blue Line Extension Update
Prepared By
Jason Zimmerman, Planning Manager
Summary
A public workshop/open house was held on November 12 to display a range of preliminary
concepts for the first four station areas in Minneapolis and Golden Valley. The items primarily
discussed at the Plymouth station included the location of the station platform, a potential
roundabout at the intersection of Wirth Parkway and Plymouth Avenue, and potential
redevelopment along Plymouth Avenue. Much of the discussion on the Golden Valley Road
station centered on potential changes to land uses, increased building density, and access to the
station.
The METRO Blue Line Extension page of the City website is being updated to include these images
and provide a way for residents to give feedback in anticipation of second open house in
January nf2O1S.
The first Corridor Management Committee meeting was also held on November 12 and much of
the project team was introduced to the City, County, and Metropolitan Council representatives.
Going forward, o Community Advisory Committee and a Business Advisory Committee will be
created in order to provide additional input into the planning process.
