This short term schedule will be based on the amount of use the play equipment is getting as well as the type of play event that is being played on. Activities with movement have a more dynamic play which can lead to more maintenance due to the nature of the motion but also because these types of play events tend to be more popular. Static features may require less attention during the short term and ongoing maintenance as inspections will determine frequency of maintenance needed for these events. There may be a need for scheduled lower and higher frequency inspections. - Ongoing maintenance, check manufacturer's owner's manual recommendations for maintenance and always follow these written instructions. After short term maintenance period is done and data is collected for that time period, an ongoing schedule should be implemented. The ongoing maintenance can change with age and greater use. There may be a need for scheduled lower and higher frequency inspections. Should weekend work be necessary or non-standard hours be worked, please provide a site contact and the best telephone number to reach this person in case an urgent matter arises requiring immediate attention.

A single tennis court/ pickleball court Tennis court!!! Add a single / medium height bar on the playground. A community garden would be my choice over all the amenities above. More perennial flowers please 1) there are no tennis courts in southeast Golden Valley-it would be nice to have more convenient access to tennis courts in southeast corner of the city 2) community garden so neighbors have the ability to co-garden/grow vegetables, etc. Golden Valley City Council Meeting October 19, 2021 Agenda Item 3.

D. 5. Approve Agreement for Residential Curbside Recycling and Organics Collection Services Prepared By Marc Nevinski, Physical Development Director Eric Eckman, Environmental Resources Supervisor Drew Chirpich, Environmental Specialist Summary Golden Valley has provided residential curbside recycling collection since 1987. The current recycling contract with Allied Waste Services doing business as Republic Services ends on December 31, 2021. Upon recommendation by the Environmental Commission and in order to meet the requirements of Hennepin County Ordinance 13, the City Council directed staff at its June 9, 2020 work session to expand the curbside recycling program to include citywide organics collection beginning in January 2022. Staff worked with the Environmental Commission to draft a Request For Proposals (RFP) for Residential Curbside Recycling and Organics Recycling Services and issued the RFP on February 1, 2021, reaching out to all residential haulers licensed within the seven-county metro area. Four companies responded to the RFP: Curbside Waste, Republic Services, Vierkant Disposal, and West Central Sanitation. The RFP required each bidder to provide bi-weekly recycling collection and weekly organics collection for all customers, city parks, and city campuses currently served under the existing recycling contract. Bidders were permitted to submit alternate proposals to allow for innovation or creative programs, and all proposals were considered. Republic Services and West Central Sanitation submitted full proposals for both recycling and organics recycling services. Curbside Waste and Vierkant Disposal submitted proposals for organics recycling service only. Staff from multiple departments reviewed the proposals. Staff evaluated the proposals with respect to State and County waste reduction goals, responsiveness to provisions in the RFP, qualifications, performance, safety, vehicles, technology and innovation, price, market variability/revenue share, material recovery, education/tagging, commitment to racial and gender equity, environmental sustainability, ability to provide customer service, and other factors. City Council Regular Meeting Executive Summary City of Golden Valley October 19, 2021 2 Based on these factors, staff developed a recommendation to select Republic Services as the top- ranked proposer to move forward in the RFP process. Republic Services submitted a proposal for recycling collection and processing with a fixed rate model and fixed annual adjustments for five years with no additional processing fees, and organics recycling collection with fixed annual adjustments for five years with no additional processing/tipping fees. In 2022, the proposed price for recycling collection is $4.80 per household per month and the price for organics collection is $5.00 per household per month. In addition to cost considerations, Republic Services demonstrated value and leadership in the following areas: • Wide range of collectable recyclable materials, owns and operates a local Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) in Minneapolis • Racial and gender equity, diversity and inclusion plans, goals, and commitment. o Launched a Black Employee Network, which is a business resource group that supports Republic’s community of Black employees. This group promotes cultural awareness to support a more inclusive workplace. In 2020 and beyond, expects to launch additional business resource groups. o Republic’s Mission Of Supporting An Inclusive Culture (M.O.S.A.I.C.) is driven by its office of inclusion and diversity and supported by its M.O.S.A.I.C. Council, which is comprised of cross-functional leaders from throughout the company. o M.O.S.A.I.C. Council launched the Women of Republic business resource group, which was developed to provide a platform to empower members and enrich a diverse culture that values, develops, and advances women in leadership. • Extensive sustainability plan and goals, Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) trucks, methane capture at landfills • Safe vehicles with more cameras and monitors, side loading vehicles • Industry low incident rate, comprehensive driver training program • More extensive tagging protocols for contamination, better educational materials • More extensive and frequent composition analysis Staff presented its RFP recommendation to the Environmental Commission on March 22, 2021 and requested input, feedback, and guidance to help inform the drafting of the agreement. Staff also worked closely with Hennepin County staff and the City Attorney to finalize the terms of the agreement. If the agreement is approved, the new recycling and organics collection services will begin in January 2022 and organics carts will be rolled out to the community just ahead of the first service date. The communication and education campaign will continue with updated information to residents using a variety of media and platforms. Financial or Budget Considerations According to information from Hennepin County and Recycling Markets.com, the commodity value for recycled material has decreased over time since the City’s last RFP process several years ago, and has been impacted more recently by the restriction of recycling markets in China (2018) and shifts in City Council Regular Meeting Executive Summary City of Golden Valley October 19, 2021 3 recycling due to the global pandemic (2020). These changes along with a proposed expansion of the City’s current recycling program to include organics collection results in an increase in the City’s overall recycling budget in 2022. The City’s proposed 2022-2023 biennial budget includes an increase of approximately $555,000 in 2022 to fund the City’s comprehensive recycling program which consists of curbside recycling collection, proposed curbside organics collection, Spring Brush Pick-up, Fall Leaf Drop-off, Mighty Tidy Day and other events, Sentencing to Service contractual program, education and outreach, supplies, staffing, and administration. The budget increase would be funded by a combination of user fees and Hennepin County SCORE grant funds. A fee of $34 per quarter ($11.33 per month) per household is being proposed in 2022. For reference, the current fee in 2021 is $17 per quarter ($5.66 per month) per household and does not include organics collection. Based on information from Hennepin County, the City will receive more SCORE grant funds in 2022 with its inclusion of citywide organics collection. Staff estimates the City will receive approximately $75,000 in SCORE grant funds in 2022 compared with approximately $35,552 in 2021. Recommended Action Motion to approve agreement in the form approved by the City Attorney with Allied Waste Services of North America, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company d/b/a Allied Waste Services of the Twin Cities —Eden Prairie // Republic Services of the Twin Cities - Eden Prairie to provide residential curbside recycling and organics collection services.

E. Downtown Study Framework Plan Prepared By Jason Zimmerman, Planning Manager Summary In 2020, the City hired Hoisington Koegler Group, Inc. (HKGi) to conduct Phase 3 of the Downtown Study. This final phase further developed plans for the four quadrants centered on the intersection of Winnetka Avenue and Golden Valley Road, recommended implementation strategies, and generated a final report that will complement the broader 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Efforts to re-envision the Civic Campus (the Northeast Quadrant) were coordinated with the ongoing Municipal Facilities Study. The final report (the Downtown Redevelopment Framework Plan) is attached for review. The Planning Commission discussed the contents of the Framework Plan with the consultant on October 11. Moving forward, staff intends to pursue the following actions to begin to implement the plan (these items would require future City Council approvals): 1. Reguide the identified downtown parcels to Community Mixed Use. • No land use changes to the Civic Campus would be considered until the Municipal Facilities Study is completed and the City is ready to move forward. 2. Rezone various downtown parcels to align with the updated Future Land Use Map. 3. Update the 2018 Bicycle/Pedestrian Plan to include the proposed downtown facilities. • Explore options to prioritize and unlock funds for a future Hwy 55 pedestrian bridge. 4. Identify items for inclusion in the City’s 10-year Capital Improvement Program. • Could include money for a traffic study, or key road and trail infrastructure projects. 5. Explore the creation of a Downtown Overly District to incorporate recommended design guidelines. 6. Investigate financial tools to support future redevelopment. Financial Or Budget Considerations No immediate impacts, though future actions by the Council to implement the plan would involve varying levels of financial commitments. Recommended Action Motion to receive and file the Downtown Study Framework Plan.

As part of the Downtown West area, the downtown was identified as one of four key redevelopment areas/planning districts in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Golden Valley has a legacy of downtown revitalization efforts over the years, including the civic campus, Winnetka Ave streetscape features, and private redevelopment projects (e.g. Golden Valley Commons, Town Square, Wesley Commons housing, Valley Square Commons housing). However, some areas in the downtown are in need of reinvestment or redevelopment and are beginning to attract developer interest. The purpose of the downtown study was to evaluate the issues and opportunities present in the downtown, explore alternative redevelopment and placemaking concepts, and identify both a short-term and long-term downtown vision and framework plan. The City’s interest is to create a more defined downtown by establishing a cohesive redevelopment plan for the entire downtown, including the four quadrants surrounding the intersection of Winnetka Ave and Golden Valley Road. The downtown area consists of the two commercial quadrants along Highway 55, the civic campus, townhouse and apartment residences west of Winnetka Ave, and the commercial- industrial area north of Bassett Creek. In conjunction with the 2021 Golden Valley Municipal Facilities Study, the downtown study includes a focused exploration of ways to improve, reorient, and/or redevelop the civic campus to support high quality municipal services, enhance the downtown as a community gathering place, and maximize the potential long- term value of this key downtown site. Since the community has prioritized the development of an improved walk/bike system throughout the community, in particular in the downtown, the downtown study also focuses on improving walk/bike connectivity within and to/from the downtown. Finally, the downtown study was charged with identifying the City’s role in future downtown reinvestment and redevelopment. The downtown study consisted of three phases that took place from 2018 to 2021. These three phases are described in the Downtown Study Process and Involvement section on the next page. The Downtown Redevelopment Framework Plan is the culmination of the three-phase process. The planning process involved meetings with the City Staff Team, Planning Commission/City Council, property owners/stakeholders, and the general public. The Framework Plan includes a downtown vision and guiding principles for preferred redevelopment and placemaking in the downtown core, site redevelopment concepts within each quadrant of the downtown, downtown vehicular circulation and access improvements, and a detailed bike/walk system plan.

The downtown is home to places to shop, eat and drink, access civic services, work, live, walk, bike, sit outside, enjoy recreational and natural spaces, and interact with neighbors. Through strategic reinvestment and redevelopment, the downtown will become a more attractive, connected, and welcoming place conveniently accessible for people to gather, walk, bicycle, drive, and take transit. GUIDING PRINCIPLES 1. Weave together all four quadrants of the downtown for walking and bicycling through development of a more desirable walking environment, an expanded bike/walk network, and improved walk/bike street crossings. 2. Improve circulation and access for people driving and parking within the downtown including new connections through existing superblocks. 3. Attract a greater variety of uses to the downtown to make it a stronger destination, including employment opportunities, unique restaurants, entertainment, daily needs (e.g. grocery, pharmacy), and recreation; while also respecting and supporting existing businesses to thrive in the downtown. 4. Center our community center by reorganizing civic services and the library into a more cohesive campus that embraces Bassett Creek and enables business expansion in the downtown core. 5. Expand and cluster commercial uses at the downtown’s core intersection of Winnetka/Golden Valley Road and in prominent locations along Hwy 55. 6. Ensure that buildings and outdoor gathering spaces have a strong orientation toward the downtown’s main streets – Winnetka Ave and Golden Valley Road. 7. Leverage redevelopment to incorporate additional public outdoor gathering spaces in the form of plazas, outdoor seating areas, small parks, and trails. 8. Strengthen the downtown’s connectivity to adjacent neighborhoods and recreational amenities, particularly Brookview and the Luce Line Regional Trail. 9. Add new housing and job options that have convenient access to commercial, transportation and recreational amenities and contribute to a desirable downtown living and working environment. 8 DOWNTOWN REDEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK PLAN GOLDEN VALLEY, MN EXISTING CONDITIONS Existing Mix of Businesses, Institutions, and Residences Figure 1.1 Existing Mix of Businesses, Institutions, and Residences Existing Businesses, Institutions, and Residences The overall downtown is currently home to a broad mix of uses, including the following: • Northeast – primarily institutional uses including municipal facilities, county library, and a natural area along Bassett Creek, as well as a McDonald’s restaurant • Southeast – Golden Valley Commons retail, restaurant, and service businesses; U.S. Post Office • Southwest – Golden Valley Shopping Center retail, restaurant, and service businesses; some freestanding businesses west of the shopping center • Northwest – residences along Golden Valley Drive and Winnetka; Golden Valley Town Square mixed use building (retail/office); industrial and commercial businesses north of Bassett Creek OCTOBER 2021 9 Existing Vehicle Circulation and Access Figure 1.2 Existing Vehicle Circulation and Access Existing Vehicle Circulation and Access Map shows the downtown’s existing vehicle circulation and access network, including roadway functional classifications, intersections/ driveways (full vs. 3/4 vs. 1/2 access), traffic signals, bus stops, on-street parking, and traffic volumes. 10 DOWNTOWN REDEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK PLAN GOLDEN VALLEY, MN Existing Pedestrian, Bike and Transit Network Figure 1.3 Existing Pedestrian, Bike and Transit Network Existing Pedestrian, Bike and Transit Network Map shows the downtown’s existing network of sidewalks, regional trails, city trails, private walkways, on-street bike facilities/shoulders, and bus stops.

Land uses should be a mix of commercial and residential, including vertical and horizontal mixed use. 2. Commercial redevelopment should be located for good visibility from Winnetka Ave and Highway 55 while residential should be primarily oriented to Golden Valley Road and Wisconsin Ave. 3. Residential redevelopment should include the addition of new housing types for the downtown that are compatible with existing housing 4. Redevelopment should create smaller “blocks” in the downtown that improve circulation and access to businesses and residences. 5. Private shared use streets, which create the new blocks, should be designed to accommodate driving, bicycling, and walking circulation and access. 6. The City should consider vacating the Golden Valley Drive public right-of-way, which no longer connects to Wisconsin Ave, to increase opportunities for land assembly and creating an alternate roadway connection between Golden Valley Road and Wisconsin Ave. 7. A new roadway connection, potentially a public or private street, should be provided between Golden Valley Road and Wisconsin Ave and adding a full access intersection on Wisconsin Ave. 8. Parking areas should be designed as a combination of smaller surface parking lots, rather than one large parking lot, and parking structures. 9. Redevelopment could be phased west to east with the first phase potentially assembling all or some of the four freestanding buildings on the western portion of the site. 10. In conjunction with redevelopment, Golden Valley Road should be widened to accommodate street improvements, including an off-street walk/bike trail and a planted boulevard separating the trail from the street. 11. An off-street walk/bike trail should be added along the east side of Wisconsin Ave and north side of Hwy 55 to the pedestrian bridge.

A trail connection should be added between the Luce Line Regional Trail and Wisconsin Ave through acquisition of a public land corridor or public easement. 2. The sidewalk on the east side of Wisconsin Ave should be replaced with a multi-use trail to provide an off-street walk/bike connection between the Luce Line Regional Trail and the Hwy 55 pedestrian bridge, Brookview, and the future BRT stations. 3. Redevelopment of the large underutilized surface parking lot north of 10th Ave is encouraged for non-residential development due to the presence of overhead power lines and the adjacent electric substation. 4. Medium-density residential development is encouraged for the redevelopment of creekside properties, including the addition of new housing types for the downtown. 5. Lewis Road should be redesigned as a primarily residential roadway, including addition of a sidewalk, as part of the residential redevelopment. 6. A new Lewis Road connection to Wisconsin Ave should be part of redevelopment of the Northwest Quadrant to provide more convenient access from Highway 55 and the downtown for residents. 7. New development should incorporate improved stormwater management techniques, including an increase in green spaces and pervious surfaces to improve stormwater runoff, Bassett Creek water quality, and the area’s livability. 8. A new public trail should be developed along the north side of Bassett Creek, including a trail bridge over Bassett Creek and connections to Lewis Road, in coordination with private property owners, the watershed district, and the City. 9. In the area between 10th Ave and Lewis Road, potential future redevelopment could be either office, residential, or institutional.

Two new east-west shared use streets/lanes should be added between Winnetka Ave and Rhode Island Ave to improve connections and access within this large block: one on the south side of the water tower and one as an extension of the existing library drive. 2. The shared use streets should be designed as pedestrian-oriented streets while also accommodating vehicles and bicycles: a. Sidewalks on both sides b. Vegetated buffers between the sidewalks and the vehicle lanes c. Narrow drive lanes d. Small parking bays e. Surmountable curbs, rather than a typical raised curb, in order to create streets that have the flexibility to be used as event spaces when closed to vehicle traffic f. Use a different paving material at the street edges to visually narrow the drive lanes and reduce traffic speeds g. Pavement markings indicating drive lanes are shared by vehicles and bicycles 3. A signature north-south downtown pathway should be created that connects the Luce Line Trail to Golden Valley Road through the civic campus: a. Side-by-side but separated bikeway (10’) and walkway (10’) b. Minimum 8’ landscaped area between bikeway and walkway c. Minimum 6’ landscaped area along each side of the downtown pathway d. Where the downtown pathway crosses parking lots and shared use streets, walk/bike crossings should be raised and/or have pavement markings e. Small plazas or seating areas located at key destinations along the downtown pathway, e.g. library, future public safety building, water tower, city hall, Golden Valley Road 4. A public park should be developed on the north side of the creek, and if possible, on the south side in coordination with the library and the watershed district.

Subject to future design, the form of City Hall could intentionally be expressed as somewhat distinct from the housing above, to preserve a sense of identity. NOTE: Massings shown for multi-use development are representative only, and align with Downtown Study recommendations for frontages and industry best practices for floorplate depth re: double-loaded corridor and unit sizes. Figure 1.12 Northeast Quadrant Redevelopment Concept A (Municipal Facilities Study) 24 DOWNTOWN REDEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK PLAN GOLDEN VALLEY, MN 5. A new public outdoor event space should be created in the vicinity of the downtown pathway and the water tower, particularly if new public buildings are relocated to the existing public works site. 6. If the public works facilities are relocated to a site outside of downtown, relocation of the fire, police, and city hall facilities to the center of the NE Quadrant should be considered, opening up the potential for redevelopment of a mix of commercial and residential in the core of downtown. 7. Redevelopment along Golden Valley Road should focus on locating commercial uses near Winnetka Ave and ground floor residential uses near Rhode Island Ave. 8. Buildings located adjacent to Golden Valley Road and Winnetka Avenue should be oriented to the public street frontage and be built within 5-15 feet of these streets. 9.

Replacement and redesign of existing bike/ walk bridge should include the following considerations: -Determine the priority landing points and how many landing points, e.g. priority connection may be Golden Valley Commons to Brookview or could there be 3 or 4 landings rather than 2 -More user friendly design, including avoiding ramps with tight switchback turns and easy access from trails, sidewalks and bike lanes -Coordinate location of BRT stations with bridge landing points, e.g. consider shifting westbound station to east side of Winnetka -Potential for the bridge to provide community identity, landmark, e.g. explore precedents like Sabo bridge (Hiawatha Ave), planned Bruce Vento bridge (downtown St. Paul), Lakeshore Drive bridges (Chicago) -Work with the Metropolitan Council to gain designation of the Highway 55 walk/ bike bridge as part of the Regional Bicycle Transportation Network (RBTN) OCTOBER 2021 31 894 8 8 8 904 89 2 902 906902 9 00 910902 91 2894 9 0 6898

Conditions Streets BRT Station DowntownGateway Parallel Parking Full Access 3/4 Access 1/2 Access Full Access 1/2 Access 32 DOWNTOWN REDEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK PLAN GOLDEN VALLEY, MN CIRCULATION AND ACCESS DESIGN GUIDELINES Streets and Pathways Network 1. Break down the existing “superblocks” of development in the downtown by creating new street or pathway connections that reduce block sizes and create a more walkable and bikable downtown. 2. Leverage downtown’s existing street right-of-way corridors and infrastructure investments as part of improving downtown connections in order to maximize site redevelopment potential and to manage infrastructure costs. 3. Downtown’s streets and pathways network should be expanded to provide convenient, safe, and comfortable connections to the existing bus stops and future BRT stations. 4. New downtown connections should accommodate vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles. Sidewalks 1. Existing sidewalk gaps along Winnetka Ave, Golden Valley Road, and Wisconsin Ave should be filled in as part of any site or street redevelopment project. 2. Minimize the number of curb cuts on sidewalks. 3. A sidewalk boulevard or buffer zone should be provided between all sidewalks and street traffic in the form of a landscaped boulevard, streetscape amenities, bike lane, or vehicle parking lane, with a minimum width of 5 feet. 4. Provide an expanded pedestrian zone/sidewalk width to accommodate increased pedestrian traffic levels and allow for the addition of street furnishings, lighting, plantings, and outdoor restaurant seating. Walk/Bike Crossings 1. Provide clearly marked walk/bike crossings at all street intersections with reflective painting, special paving materials, light signal, and/or signage alerting motorists to the walk/bike crossing. 2. Provide curb bump-outs at street intersections, wherever feasible, to shorten walk/bike crossing distances, calm traffic, provide areas for street furnishings/landscaping, and delineate limits of on-street parking. 3. Utilize pedestrian-activated countdown crossing lights at key signalized intersections. Trail and Bicycle Facilities 1. Bicycle connections should be incorporated into street and site redevelopment wherever feasible, particularly to provide convenient, safe, and comfortable connections to trails, parks, Brookview, municipal facilities, businesses, existing bus stops, and future BRT stations. 2. Adding north-south bicycle routes is a priority to improve connectivity in the downtown. 3. Clear separation between bicycle facilities and vehicle traffic should be provided whenever feasible. 4. Explore the potential for incorporating marked bike boxes for bicyclists at signalized intersections. 5. Bicycle parking/storage facilities should be provided at key public and private destinations throughout the downtown. 6. Providing free bicycle maintenance stations (tire pump, tire air gauge, tire levers, tools, etc.) is encouraged along major bicycle routes and at key downtown destinations. 7. Providing space for expansion of bike sharing facilities (such as Nice Ride) is encouraged at key destinations as street and site redevelopment occurs. OCTOBER 2021 33 Transit Facilities. 1. Incorporate safe waiting space, seating, shelter, lighting, informational and directional signage, and other pedestrian features at or adjacent to bus stops as street and site redevelopment occurs. 2. Promote the addition of bus shelters to provide protection from the weather. 3. Explore the potential for incorporating public art into the design of bus shelters to create a unique downtown identity. 4. Coordinate redevelopment proposals with long-term bus transit plans for the downtown, including the future BRT stations at Highway 55/Winnetka Ave. Lighting 1. Pedestrian-scale street light fixtures should be added along sidewalks in the downtown to enhance pedestrian safety and comfort at night. 2. Light fixtures should be designed to minimize visibility of light bulbs by pedestrians and light pollution in general. 3. Explore the potential for incorporating public art into the design of pedestrian-scale lighting to create a unique downtown identity. Street Plantings 1. Street trees should be planted at regular intervals appropriate to the root structure and canopy of the tree species chosen. 2. A similar mix of street tree species and spacing should be installed on both sides of the street within a given block. 3. Native tree and plant species should be used, whenever possible, to reduce maintenance, carbon emissions, and the urban heat island effect. 4. Low-maintenance/drought-tolerant plants and trees should be used to reduce irrigation needs; consider allowing exceptions for higher-maintenance materials in areas with high pedestrian traffic and community gathering spaces. 5. Structural soils should be used where street trees are planted within paved areas, e.g. sidewalks, plazas, and parking lots, to support deep tree root growth beneath the paved area, and to prevent heaving of sidewalks, plazas, curbs, and gutters. 6. Where businesses face streets, plant materials should be selected that minimize visual obstruction of business storefronts. 7. Flowering plants in hanging baskets or planters should be considered along commercial and mixed-use streets to create a welcoming pedestrian environment and contribute to the unique identity of the downtown. 8. Plant materials, fencing, or landscape improvements should not encroach into the sight lines of any street intersection or driveway. 9. Use of turf grass should be minimized for planted areas directly adjacent to public streets and spaces. 10. Artificial plant materials should not be used for street plantings. 34 DOWNTOWN REDEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK PLAN GOLDEN VALLEY, MN Street Furnishings 1. Street furnishings should be added that enhance the safety, accessibility, functionality, and comfort of the streetscape. 2. Street furnishings made of durable (recycled when possible), easily maintained/repaired, and locally available materials, should be used whenever feasible. 3. Street furnishings (benches and seating, trash/recycling receptacles, bollards, bike racks, kiosks, etc.) should be provided at transit stops, plazas, building entry areas, near Bassett Creek, and along commercial and mixed-use streets. 4. The streetscape features and design along Winnetka Ave should be extended to Golden Valley Road. Wayfinding Signage 1. A comprehensive wayfinding signage system should be developed for the downtown area. The final design and location of the wayfinding should be approved as part of the street and site redevelopment process. 2. Wayfinding signage should direct people to key downtown destinations such as the municipal facilities, library, Brookview, Luce Line Regional Trail, Bassett Creek Trail, and public parking. 3. Wayfinding signage should be designed to accommodate drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians. 4. Downtown gateway features should be installed at all major downtown entry points.

A.First Consideration of Ordinance No. 721, Modifying Solid Waste and Recyclables Collection Prepared By Eric Eckman, Environmental Resources Supervisor Drew Chirpich, Environmental Specialist Summary City Code Section 22 allows the City Council to establish regulations for the location of waste and recycling containers in the City. The existing code requires residents to store containers no more than three feet from the primary or accessory structure, at all times located behind the front of the primary structure, and screened from view. With the City expanding its residential curbside recycling service to include organics collection in 2022, residents will receive a new container for organics recycling; this is in addition to containers they may already have for solid waste, mixed recycling, and yard waste. Recognizing that storage of containers consistent with the existing code may be challenging for residents, staff is requesting that the City modify its code to provide more flexibility and allow containers to be stored within five feet of a structure and be visible from the street, as shown in the attached underline/overstrike document. The proposed changes are consistent with other cities’ codes (Edina implemented organics collection in 2020) and reflect the current storage practices observed by staff in many neighborhoods throughout the City. The flexibility in storage options was supported by the community in a 2020 organics recycling survey and is also supported by the City’s Environmental Commission (see community input report for details). The July/August 2021 CityNews included a brief article about waste carts and requested residents email staff with any comments or questions regarding potential code change. A total of six comments were received, with some opposed and some in favor of changing the code. The proposed code modification was prepared with input from the Fire Chief, City Attorney and Property Maintenance staff. Staff anticipates there will be less complaints, violations, and enforcement needed if the proposed changes are approved. Staff will monitor the placement of carts and potential complaints in 2022 and will notify council if additional changes need to be considered. City Council Regular Meeting Executive Summary City of Golden Valley October 19, 2021 2 The second consideration of the Ordinance is scheduled for November 3, 2021.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, containers may be placed at the curb from 5:00 p.m. the day prior to collection to 9:00 p.m. the day of collection. Section 2. This ordinance shall take effect on January 1, 2022 from and after its passage and publication as required by law.
