vii. Working on having all of the information available for translation into other languages.
viii. Also looking at a program with a 3rd party who works with CenterPoint Energy and
conducts business efficiency audits. There is an opportunity there to partner and
potentially buy down site visits. Possibly create a window cling “sticker” for the
businesses door to recognize them as going through the program and making
improvements.
6. New Business
A. New GreenCorps Member, Ethan Kehrberg
i. Ethan’s focus will be on the Air Pollution Reduction, Energy Action Plan Resilience and
Sustainability Efforts, Organics Recycling, and GreenStep Cities.
B. Water Resources – Neighborhood Flood Study
i. Two items on the Commission’s 2021 Work Plan:
1. Help Update the City’s Stormwater Management Program and improve the City’s
stormwater assessment score in GreenStep Cities as part of the City’s permit
requirements with MPCA.
1. The public comment period on the MPCA closed at the end of August.
Now we update the program and City Code over 12 months.
2. Look at long range needs for stormwater storage and consider how to use those
needs to improve recreation and conservation.
ii. The City’s proposed 2022-2031 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes a study of
localized flood risk in 2022-2023. Staff is beginning to work on the scope of the project.
It will look at the watershed’s modeled floodplain at the neighborhood level and help
the City engage with residents, perform field surveys, determine food risk, identify
potential solutions, develop informational mapping tools, and prioritize future
investment.
1. The study will be 3 years – 2 years of study and 1 year of implementation of low-
cost solutions. Hopefully we’ll get some grants for bigger projects.
iii. There are over 300 properties in Golden Valley identified to have flood risk and many
more people impacted by flooded streets, parks, and infrastructure.
1. The City and Bassett Creek Watershed (BCW) help manage these areas with
respect to land use, development, and natural resources.
iv. Understanding the flood risk and identifying possible solutions is critical to the City’s
climate mitigation efforts, community resilience goals, and commitment to achieving
more equitable outcomes.
1. It’s also an important part of the City’s participation in FEMA’s Community Rating
System. It provides residents with lower flood insurance premiums.
v. Areas with a lot of flood storage:
1. Brookview
2. General Mills Nature Preserve
3. Theo Wirth Park
City of Golden Valley Environmental Commission Regular Meeting
Sept 27, 2020 – 6:30 pm

vi. A lot of neighborhood parks were built before there was a lot of regulations. Now we’re
looking to re-establish stormwater functions including flood storage in these parks.
vii. The City has partnered with others such as the Watershed and Minnesota DNR Flood
Reduction Program to purchase several properties over time to convert to green open
space. The City has also worked with homeowners who voluntarily wanted to sell.
Many were located adjacent to established nature areas.
viii. The City adopted a floodproofing cost sharing program so there’s money devoted to
helping residents recoup the cost of floodproofing their home. Up to 40% of cost, up to
$50,000.
ix. The study will look at the areas with multiple homes that are at risk. How can we lower
flood levels in that area? The Medley Park Storm Water Improvement Project is one of
those projects that will improve the flood risk to many homes.
x. Possibly look into an online tool that will show residents the flood risk in their area with
different levels of rainfall? Show effects of small and large storms. Include steps for the
homeowner on mitigating the flood risk. Tell what city is doing to mitigate risk.
xi. Zoning laws – are you allowed to get rid of your driveway and put in a green driveway?
Maybe put in pavers instead of asphalt. Need more incentives and regulations to
increase pervious (green) areas.
xii. How can the City engage with residents?
1. In person and online.
2. Pop-up meetings in a park – meet people where they are.
3. Get community together. Help build community, find leaders.
4. Transparency. Walk people through the issues and solutions.
5. Neighborhood driven-not City driven-approaches
xiii. Want to know how often the flooding could/has happened.
xiv. Take a neighborhood approach. Go to the community with potential solutions and have
the community/neighborhood discuss what should be done. Solutions should add value
and benefit to the neighborhood.
xv. Need to refine flood risk in neighborhoods based on additional study.
xvi. Use the equity lense. Prioritize improvement areas based on environmental justice and
the Inequities in Green Amenities map developed by the subcommittee of Commissions.
Update this map based on the new census data. Identify those who are house burdened.
xvii. Tie in community resilience and emergency management.
C. MN Cities Climate Caucus (MNCCC)
i. Focus on two areas
1. Influence state policy and regulations to help cities meet their goals.
2. Accelerate the learning and spread of city-level best practices and policy ideas.
ii. The MNCCC is made up of elected officials from throughout the state, though appointed
staff may participate as appropriate.
iii. Meetings will be held, usually, no more than once per month.
1. City staff has tried to make most of the meetings. Council has not officially said
we are a part of this group.
City of Golden Valley Environmental Commission Regular Meeting
Sept 27, 2020 – 6:30 pm

iv. Currently discussing a multi-City declaration to the climate emergency. Not every City
has the same declaration. Each City creates their own.
v. Would doing something like this add to the work staff is already doing? Maybe this is
too much? Maybe do this if there are benefits to the City? Would this strengthen the
need for additional resources? Maybe just monitor for now and receive updates?
D. Program/Project Updates
i. Another round of funding has been opened for the Lawns to Legumes program.
1. Applications due by Feb 15, 2022. Decisions made in March.
2. Info will be posted on social media and in the Newsletter.
ii. Golden Valley Country Club Villas – Plans proposed for 7 units with some public
amenities.
E. Council Updates
i. Council has approved a contract with a recruitment vendor of America’s Best Strategic
Security Group to do a national search for our new police chief. They will be in town in
October. Residents can meet the consultant at an open house on Oct 14 from 6-8 at
Brookview.
F. Other Business
i. City staff sent a letter to all licensed trash haulers reminding them of the days/hours of
operation.
ii. Sharing garbage service with a neighbor is a gray area in the code. Nothing specifically
prohibiting it – may need to request a waiver for this alternative.
7. Adjournment
MOTION by Commissioner Fettig, seconded by Commissioner Yahle to adjourn the meeting at
8:02 pm and the motion carried.

Summary
Audiovisual bids for the Council Chambers Remodel project were opened on October 20, 2021. Two
bids were received and are listed below:
Contractor Total Bid

Women’s Business Development Center-Twin Cities, North Central Minority Supplier Development
Council, and Meda, which supports BIPOC entrepreneurs. Five companies attended the required pre-
bid meeting.
The project will replace and upgrade all existing audiovisual equipment in the Council Chambers and
broadcast control room. The current equipment ranges between 11 and 30 years of age, and repair
parts are no longer available for most of the pieces. The project will also add two monitors on the east
and west walls for improved audience viewing, a fourth camera angle, and monitors to the dais for
Council or Commission viewing. The large podium currently in front of the dais will be replaced with
two smaller, mobile podiums positioned to sides, and which will enable a more flexible use of the
Chambers.

Golden Valley City Council Chambers
THIS AGREEMENT is made this ___ day of November, 2021 (“Effective Date”) by and between Video
Services, Inc., a Minnesota company with its principal office at 211 Mohr Drive, Mankato, MN 56001
(“Contractor”), and the City of Golden Valley, Minnesota, a Minnesota municipal corporation located at

RECITALS
A. Contractor is engaged in the business of electrical contracting.
B. The City desires to hire Contractor to install audiovisual equipment and systems in the Golden

C. Contractor represents that it has the professional expertise and capabilities to provide the City
with the requested work.
D. The City desires to engage Contractor to provide the work described in this Agreement and
Contractor is willing to provide such work on the terms and conditions in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions expressed herein, the City and
Contractor agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. The Work. Contractor shall perform the work more fully described in the attached Exhibit A (the
“Work”). The Work includes all work and services required by this Agreement, whether completed or
partially completed, and includes all labor, materials, equipment, and services provided or to be provided
by Contractor to fulfill Contractor’s obligations. All Work shall be completed according to the
specifications set forth in the attached Exhibit B – Special Conditions. Contractor shall at all times keep
the premises free from accumulation of waste materials and debris caused by Contractor’s operations.
2. Time for Completion & Liquidated Damages. After contract execution and approval of
submittals, Contractor shall attend the construction planning meeting and the City and Contractor shall
create a project schedule and coordinate with other work being completed in the council chambers space.
Contractor shall provide the City with a product delivery schedule and agree to a substantial completion
date (“Substantial Completion Date”). The Contractor shall proceed diligently and shall complete the Work
to the satisfaction and approval of the City’s Physical Development Director on or before the Substantial
Completion Date. If Contractor fails to complete the Work by the Substantial Completion Date, the City
may immediately, or at any time thereafter, proceed to complete the Work at the Contractor’s expense.

9/30/2021 GOLDEN VALLEY, MN
3
Contractor shall prosecute the Work continuously and effectively, with the least possible delay, to the end
that the Work is completed before the Substantial Completion Date. The City is entitled to damages for
failure of the Contractor to complete the Work before the Substantial Completion Date. In view of the
difficulty in making a precise determination of actual damages incurred, the City will assess a daily charge
not as a penalty but as liquidated damages to compensate the City for additional costs incurred. Failure
to substantially complete the Work by the Substantial Completion Date shall result in the City charging
Contractor, and withholding any monies due as liquidated damages, the amount of $1,000 per calendar
day until all Work is completed. If Contractor is delayed for any reason in the commencement or
performance of the Work, to the extent of such delay will prevent the Contractor from completing the
Work (or any portion thereof) by the Substantial Completion Date, Contractor’s sole remedy for such delay
shall be an extension of the Substantial Completion Date. All such extension requests shall be made
according to the requirements and procedures set forth in this Agreement.
3. Consideration. The consideration, which the City shall pay to Contractor, shall not exceed
$355,426.30 (the “Contract Sum”). The Contract Sum shall be for both the Work performed by Contractor
and the expenses incurred by Contractor in performing the Work. The City shall make progress payments
to Contractor monthly.

Contractor within thirty (30) days after receiving a statement from Contractor.

done or materials furnished, nor shall Contractor do any work or furnish any materials not covered by the
plans and specifications of this Agreement. Any such work or materials furnished by Contractor without
written City approval shall be at Contractor’s own risk and expense. Contractor shall perform any altered
plans ordered by the City; if such alteration reduces the cost of doing such work, the actual amount of
such reduction shall be deducted from the contract price for the Work.
5. Contract Documents. The Contract Documents shall consist of this Agreement; all exhibits to this
Agreement, which are incorporated herein by reference; any supplementary drawings, plans, and
specifications; and other documents listed herein. In the event of a conflict among the various provisions
of the Contract Documents, the terms shall be interpreted in the following order of priority:

b. This Agreement, including all exhibits

d. Other documents listed in this Agreement

incidental expenses. All expenses of Contractor shall be built into Contractor’s fixed compensation rate,

purchases, or commitments on the City’s behalf beyond those listed in the Work. The City’s approval

performed by Contractor pursuant to this Section.
Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to
other obligations Contractor has under the Contract Documents. Establishment of the one-year period for
correction of Work as described in this Section relates only to the specific obligation of Contractor to
correct the Work, and has no relationship to the time within which the obligation to comply with the
Contract Documents may be sought to be enforced, nor to the time within which proceedings may be
commenced to establish Contractor’s liability with respect to Contractor’s obligations other than
specifically to correct the Work.
12. Termination. This Agreement shall remain in force and effect commencing from the effective
date and continuing until the completion of all of the parties’ obligations hereunder, unless terminated
by the City or amended pursuant to the Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the
contrary, this Agreement may be terminated as follows:
a. The parties, by mutual written agreement, may terminate this Agreement at any time;
b. Contractor may terminate this Agreement in the event of a breach of the Agreement by the City
upon providing thirty (30) days’ written notice to the City;
c. The City may terminate this Agreement at any time at its option, for any reason or no reason at
all; or
d. The City may terminate this Agreement immediately upon Contractor’s failure to have in force
any insurance required by this Agreement.
In the event of a termination, the City shall pay Contractor for Work performed to the date of termination
and for all costs or other expenses incurred prior to the date of termination.
13. Changes in the Work. Changes in the Work may be accomplished after execution of the Contract
by change order. The City, without invalidating the Agreement, may order changes in the Work within the
general scope of the Agreement consisting of additions, deletions, or other revisions, with the Contract
Sum and Substantial Completion Date being adjusted accordingly. Such changes in the Work shall be
authorized by written Change Order signed by the City and Contractor, or by written Construction Change
Directive signed by the City and the City’s design consultant (“Designer”). Upon issuance of the Change
Order or Construction Change Directive, the Contractor shall proceed promptly with such changes in the
Work, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order or Construction Change Directive.
PROJECT NO. 21-09 COUNCIL CHAMBERS REMODEL - AV

Adjustments in the Contract Sum and Substantial Completion Date resulting from a change in the Work
shall be determined by mutual agreement of the parties or, in the case of a Construction Change Directive
signed only by the City and Designer, by the Contractor’s cost of labor, material, equipment, and
reasonable overhead and profit, unless the parties agree on another method for determining the cost or
credit. Pending final determination of the total cost of a Construction Change Directive, the Contractor
may request payment for Work completed pursuant to the Construction Change Directive. When the City
and Contractor agree on adjustments to the Contract Sum and Substantial Completion Date arising from
a Construction Change Directive, the City and Designer will prepare a Change Order.
The Designer, in consultation with the City, will have authority to order minor changes in the Work not
involving adjustment in the Contract Sum or extension of the Substantial Completion Date and not
inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Such changes shall be effected by written order
and shall be binding on the City and Contractor. The Contractor shall carry out such written orders
promptly. If the Contractor believes that the proposed minor change in the Work will affect the Contract
Sum or Substantial Completion Date, the Contractor shall notify the Designer and shall not proceed to
implement the change in the Work.
14. Amendments. No amendments may be made to this Agreement except in a writing signed by
both parties.
15. Remedies. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by the City because of a breach by
Contractor, the City may complete the Work either by itself or by contract with other persons or entities,
or any combination thereof. These remedies provided to the City for breach of this Agreement by
Contractor shall not be exclusive. The City shall be entitled to exercise any one or more other legal or
equitable remedies available because of Contractor’s breach.
16. Records/Inspection. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes § 16C.05, subd. 5, Contractor agrees that
the books, records, documents, and accounting procedures and practices of Contractor, that are relevant
to the contract or transaction, are subject to examination by the City and the state auditor or legislative
auditor for a minimum of six years. Contractor shall maintain such records for a minimum of six years
after final payment. The parties agree that this obligation will survive the completion or termination of this
Agreement.
17. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor, and Contractor’s successors
or assigns, agree to protect, defend, indemnify, save, and hold harmless the City, its officers, officials,
agents, volunteers, and employees from any and all claims; lawsuits; causes of actions of any kind, nature,
or character; damages; losses; and costs, disbursements, and expenses of defending the same, including but
not limited to attorneys’ fees, professional services, and other technical, administrative or professional
assistance resulting from or arising out of Contractor’s (or its subcontractors, agents, volunteers, members,
invitees, representatives, or employees) performance of the duties required by or arising from this
Agreement, or caused in whole or in part by any negligent act or omission or willful misconduct by Contractor,
or arising out of Contractor’s failure to obtain or maintain the insurance required by this Agreement.
Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver or limitation of any immunity or limitation on liability to
which the City is entitled. The parties agree that these indemnification obligations shall survive the
completion or termination of this Agreement.

18. Insurance. Contractor shall maintain reasonable insurance coverage throughout this
Agreement. Contractor agrees that before any work related to the approved project can be performed,
Contractor shall maintain at a minimum:
a. Worker’s Compensation Insurance as required by Minnesota Statutes, section 176.181;
b. Business Auto Liability covering vehicles owned by Contractor and non-owned vehicles used by
Contractor, with policy limits not less than $1,000,000 per accident, for bodily injury, death of any
person, and property damage arising out of the ownership, maintenance, and use of such motor
vehicles, along with any statutorily required automobile coverage;
c. Commercial General Liability in an amount of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000
general aggregate, and $2,000,000 for products-completed operations hazard, providing
coverage for claims including:
i. Damages because of bodily injury, sickness or disease, including occupational sickness or

iii. Damages because of physical damage to or destruction of property, including loss of use

To meet the Commercial General Liability and Business Auto Liability requirements, Contractor may use a
combination of Excess and Umbrella coverage. Prior to commencement of the Work, Contractor shall
provide the City with a current certificate of insurance including the following language: “The City of
Golden Valley is named as an additional insured with respect to the commercial general liability, business
automobile liability and umbrella or excess liability, as required by the contract. The umbrella or excess
liability policy follows form on all underlying coverages.” Such certificate of liability insurance shall list the
City as an additional insured and contain a statement that such policies of insurance shall not be canceled
or amended unless 30 days’ written notice is provided to the City, or 10 days’ written notice in the case
of non-payment.
19. Compliance with State Withholding Tax. Before final payment is made for the Work on this
project, Contractor must make a satisfactory showing that it has complied with the provisions of
Minnesota Statutes, section 290.92 requiring the withholding of State Income Tax for wages paid
employees on this project by providing to the Physical Development Director a Certificate of Compliance
from the Commissioner of Taxation. Contractor is advised that before such Certificate can be issued,
Contractor must first place on file with the Commissioner of Taxation an affidavit, in the form of an IC-
134, that Contractor has complied with the provisions of Minnesota Statutes Section 290.92.
20. Performance and Payment Bond. Prior to Commencement of the Work, Contractor shall make,
execute and deliver to the City corporate surety bonds in a form acceptable to the City, in the sum of
$355,426.30 for the use of the City and of all persons furnishing labor, skill, tools, machinery or materials
to the project. Said bonds shall secure the faithful performance and payment of the Contract by the
Contractor and shall be conditioned as required by law. This Agreement shall not become effective unless
and until said bonds have been received and approved by the City.

assignment in violation of this provision is null and void. Neither the City nor Contractor shall assign, or
transfer any rights under or interest (including, but without limitation, moneys that may become due or
moneys that are due) in the Agreement without the written consent of the other except to the extent that
the effect of this limitation may be restricted by law. Unless specifically stated to the contrary in any
written consent to an assignment, no assignment will release or discharge the assignor from any duty or

grounds for immediate termination of the Agreement by the City.

secure and pay for the building permit as well as other permits, fees, licenses, and inspections by

3. D. 1. b. Award Electrical Bid for the 2021 Council Chambers Remodel Project No. 21-09
Prepared By
Marc Nevinski, Physical Development Director
Summary
Electrical bids for the Council Chambers Remodel project were opened on October 20, 2021. One bid was
received and is listed below:
Contractor Total Bid
Phasor Electric Company $164,800
Two companies attended the required pre-bid meeting. Thirty-three companies were directly notified of
the bid package, including twenty-nine Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE’s) identified from the
Minnesota Unified Certification Program, as well as outreach to Women’s Business Development Center-
Twin Cities, North Central Minority Supplier Development Council and Meda, which supports BIPOC
entrepreneurs.
Because only one bid was received, staff asked Krause-Anderson, who has done cost estimating for the
City’s facilities study project, to review the electrical plans and specifications to estimate a price for the
work. It was determined that the expected cost of the work was $135,000 to $165,000. The one bid
received is at the top of the estimated range. However, staff does not believe re-bidding the project would
likely result in better pricing.
The electrical work will include the replacement of the existing lighting fixtures, the addition of lighting
behind the dais to improve on-camera image quality, and the addition or relocation of electrical system
components to support the audiovisual system.
Financial Or Budget Considerations
The electrical work will be funded from the Buildings Capital Improvements Fund (B-036) which has
$925,000 budgeted for 2022 for Council Chambers remodeling.
Recommended Action
Motion to award the bid from Phasor Electric, Inc. for the Council Chambers Remodel Project No. 21-09
electrical work and authorize the Mayor and City Manager to execute the contract in a form approved by
the City Attorney.

CONTRACT FOR LOCAL IMPROVEMENT
ELECTRICAL CONSTRUCTION
Golden Valley City Council Chambers Remodel
THIS AGREEMENT is made this 3rd day of November, 2021 (“Effective Date”) by and between Phasor
Electric Company, a Minnesota company with its principal office at2160 108th Lane NE, Blaine, MN 55449-
5246 (“Contractor”), and the City of Golden Valley, Minnesota, a Minnesota municipal corporation located
at 7800 Golden Valley Road, Golden Valley, MN 55427 (the “City”):
RECITALS
A. Contractor is engaged in the business of electrical contracting.
B. The City desires to hire Contractor to complete Electrical Construction in the Golden Valley City
Council Chambers.
C. Contractor represents that it has the professional expertise and capabilities to provide the City
with the requested work.
D. The City desires to engage Contractor to provide the work described in this Agreement and
Contractor is willing to provide such work on the terms and conditions in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions expressed herein, the City and
Contractor agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. The Work. Contractor shall perform the work more fully described in the attached Exhibit A (the
“Work”). The Work includes all work and services required by this Agreement, whether completed or
partially completed, and includes all labor, materials, equipment, and services provided or to be provided
by Contractor to fulfill Contractor’s obligations. All Work shall be completed according to the
specifications set forth in the attached Exhibit B – Plans and Specifications. Contractor shall at all times
keep the premises free from accumulation of waste materials and debris caused by Contractor’s
operations.
2. Time for Completion & Liquidated Damages. After contract execution and approval of
submittals, Contractor shall attend the construction planning meeting and the City and Contractor shall
create a project schedule and coordinate with other work being completed in the council chambers space.
Contractor shall provide the City with a product delivery schedule and agree to a substantial completion
date (“Substantial Completion Date”). The Contractor shall proceed diligently and shall complete the Work
to the satisfaction and approval of the City’s Physical Development Director on or before the Substantial
Completion Date. If Contractor fails to complete the Work by the Substantial Completion Date, the City
may immediately, or at any time thereafter, proceed to complete the Work at the Contractor’s expense.
If Contractor gives written notice of a delay over which Contractor has no control, the City may, at its
PROJECT NO. 21-09 COUNCIL CHAMBERS REMODEL-ELEC
9/30/21 GOLDEN VALLEY, MN
3
discretion, extend the Substantial Completion Date. The Substantial Completion Date shall be used as the
date that any liquid damages then apply to.
Contractor shall prosecute the Work continuously and effectively, with the least possible delay, to the end
that the Work is completed before the Substantial Completion Date. The City is entitled to damages for
failure of the Contractor to complete the Work before the Substantial Completion Date. In view of the
difficulty in making a precise determination of actual damages incurred, the City will assess a daily charge
not as a penalty but as liquidated damages to compensate the City for additional costs incurred. Failure
to substantially complete the Work by the Substantial Completion Date shall result in the City charging
Contractor, and withholding any monies due as liquidated damages, the amount of $1,000 per calendar
day until all Work is completed. If Contractor is delayed for any reason in the commencement or
performance of the Work, to the extent of such delay will prevent the Contractor from completing the
Work (or any portion thereof) by the Substantial Completion Date, Contractor’s sole remedy for such delay
shall be an extension of the Substantial Completion Date. All such extension requests shall be made
according to the requirements and procedures set forth in this Agreement.
3. Consideration. The consideration, which the City shall pay to Contractor, shall not exceed
$164,800.00 (the “Contract Sum”). The Contract Sum shall be for both the Work performed by Contractor
and the expenses incurred by Contractor in performing the Work. The City shall make progress payments
to Contractor monthly.
Contractor shall submit statements to the City containing a detailed list of project labor and hours, rates,
titles, and amounts undertaken by Contractor during the relevant billing period. The City shall pay
Contractor within thirty (30) days after receiving a statement from Contractor.
4. Extra Work. Unless approved by the City in writing, Contractor shall make no claim for extra work
done or materials furnished, nor shall Contractor do any work or furnish any materials not covered by the
plans and specifications of this Agreement. Any such work or materials furnished by Contractor without
written City approval shall be at Contractor’s own risk and expense. Contractor shall perform any altered
plans ordered by the City; if such alteration reduces the cost of doing such work, the actual amount of
such reduction shall be deducted from the contract price for the Work.
5. Contract Documents. The Contract Documents shall consist of this Agreement; all exhibits to this
Agreement, which are incorporated herein by reference; any supplementary drawings, plans, and
specifications; and other documents listed herein. In the event of a conflict among the various provisions
of the Contract Documents, the terms shall be interpreted in the following order of priority:
a. Modifications to this Agreement
b. This Agreement, including all exhibits
c. Supplementary drawings, plans, specifications
d. Other documents listed in this Agreement
Drawings shall control over Specifications, and detail in drawings shall control over large-scale drawings.
All capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement, but defined elsewhere in the
Contract Documents, shall have the meaning set forth in the Contract Documents.

incidental expenses. All expenses of Contractor shall be built into Contractor’s fixed compensation rate,
unless reimbursement is provided for an expense that received the prior written approval of the City,
which approval may be provided via electronic mail.
7. Approvals. Contractor shall secure the City’s written approval before making any expenditures,
purchases, or commitments on the City’s behalf beyond those listed in the Work. The City’s approval
may be provided via electronic mail.
8. Protection of Persons and Property. Contractor shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining
and supervising all safety precautions and programs in connection with the performance of the Work.
Contractor shall take reasonable precautions for the safety of, and shall provide reasonable protection to
prevent damage, injury, or loss to:
a. Persons performing the Work and other persons who may be affected by the Work;

c. Other property at the site or adjacent to the site, such as trees, shrubs, lawns, walks,
pavement, roadways, structures and utilities.
Contractor shall promptly remedy damage and loss to property caused in whole or in part by Contractor
or any of its subcontractors, agents, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them.
9. Acceptance of the Work. All of the Contractor’s work and labor shall be subject to the inspection
and approval of the City. If any materials or labor are rejected by the City as defective or unsuitable, then
the materials shall be removed and replaced with other approved materials and the labor shall be done
to the satisfaction and approval of the City at the Contractor’s sole cost and expense. Contractor shall
replace at Contractor’s expense any loss or damage to the Work, however caused, which occurs during
the construction thereof or prior to the final delivery to and acceptance of the Work by the City. Any
payment made to Contractor, shall not be construed as operating to relieve Contractor from responsibility
for the construction and delivery of Work. Acceptance of the completed Work shall be evidenced only by
a Certificate of Final Completion issued by the City, which shall state the date on which the City accepts
the completed Work (the “Final Completion Date”).
10. Warranty. Contractor represents and warrants that it has the requisite training, skills, and
experience necessary to complete the Work, is appropriately licensed by all applicable agencies and
governmental entities, and will complete the Work in a manner consistent with the level of care and skill

warrants to the City that the materials and equipment furnished under this Agreement are of good quality
and new, unless this Agreement requires or permits otherwise. Contractor further warrants that the Work

inspections, the cost of uncovering and replacement, and compensation for any additional services and
expenses made necessary thereby, shall be at Contractor’s expense. Contractor’s warranty shall exclude

11. Guarantee. Contractor guarantees and agrees to maintain the stability of the Work and materials
furnished and installed under this contract for a period of one year after the Final Completion Date (the
“Guarantee Period”). Contractor agrees to perform fully all other guarantees as set forth in the
specifications. If any of the Work is found to be not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract
during the Guarantee Period, Contractor shall correct it promptly after receipt of notice from the City to
do so. The City shall give such notice promptly after discovery of the condition. If Contractor fails to correct
nonconforming Work within a reasonable time after receipt of notice from the City, the City may correct
the Work at Contractor’s expense.
The Guarantee Period shall be extended with respect to portions of Work first performed after the Final
Completion Date by the period of time between final payment and the actual completion of that portion
of the Work. The one-year period for correction of Work shall not be extended by corrective Work
performed by Contractor pursuant to this Section.
Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to
other obligations Contractor has under the Contract Documents. Establishment of the one-year period for
correction of Work as described in this Section relates only to the specific obligation of Contractor to
correct the Work, and has no relationship to the time within which the obligation to comply with the
Contract Documents may be sought to be enforced, nor to the time within which proceedings may be
commenced to establish Contractor’s liability with respect to Contractor’s obligations other than
specifically to correct the Work.
12. Termination. This Agreement shall remain in force and effect commencing from the effective
date and continuing until the completion of all of the parties’ obligations hereunder, unless terminated
by the City or amended pursuant to the Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the
contrary, this Agreement may be terminated as follows:
a. The parties, by mutual written agreement, may terminate this Agreement at any time;
b. Contractor may terminate this Agreement in the event of a breach of the Agreement by the City
upon providing thirty (30) days’ written notice to the City;
c. The City may terminate this Agreement at any time at its option, for any reason or no reason at
all; or
d. The City may terminate this Agreement immediately upon Contractor’s failure to have in force
any insurance required by this Agreement.
In the event of a termination, the City shall pay Contractor for Work performed to the date of termination
and for all costs or other expenses incurred prior to the date of termination.
13. Changes in the Work. Changes in the Work may be accomplished after execution of the Contract
by change order. The City, without invalidating the Agreement, may order changes in the Work within the
general scope of the Agreement consisting of additions, deletions, or other revisions, with the Contract
Sum and Substantial Completion Date being adjusted accordingly. Such changes in the Work shall be
authorized by written Change Order signed by the City and Contractor, or by written Construction Change
Directive signed by the City and the City’s design consultant (“Designer”). Upon issuance of the Change
Order or Construction Change Directive, the Contractor shall proceed promptly with such changes in the
Work, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order or Construction Change Directive.
PROJECT NO. 21-09 COUNCIL CHAMBERS REMODEL-ELEC
9/30/21 GOLDEN VALLEY, MN
6
Adjustments in the Contract Sum and Substantial Completion Date resulting from a change in the Work
shall be determined by mutual agreement of the parties or, in the case of a Construction Change Directive
signed only by the City and Designer, by the Contractor’s cost of labor, material, equipment, and
reasonable overhead and profit, unless the parties agree on another method for determining the cost or
credit. Pending final determination of the total cost of a Construction Change Directive, the Contractor
may request payment for Work completed pursuant to the Construction Change Directive. When the City
and Contractor agree on adjustments to the Contract Sum and Substantial Completion Date arising from
a Construction Change Directive, the City and Designer will prepare a Change Order.
The Designer, in consultation with the City, will have authority to order minor changes in the Work not
involving adjustment in the Contract Sum or extension of the Substantial Completion Date and not
inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Such changes shall be effected by written order
and shall be binding on the City and Contractor. The Contractor shall carry out such written orders
promptly. If the Contractor believes that the proposed minor change in the Work will affect the Contract
Sum or Substantial Completion Date, the Contractor shall notify the Designer and shall not proceed to
implement the change in the Work.
14. Amendments. No amendments may be made to this Agreement except in a writing signed by
both parties.
15. Remedies. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by the City because of a breach by
Contractor, the City may complete the Work either by itself or by contract with other persons or entities,
or any combination thereof. These remedies provided to the City for breach of this Agreement by
Contractor shall not be exclusive. The City shall be entitled to exercise any one or more other legal or
equitable remedies available because of Contractor’s breach.
16. Records/Inspection. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes § 16C.05, subd. 5, Contractor agrees that
the books, records, documents, and accounting procedures and practices of Contractor, that are relevant
to the contract or transaction, are subject to examination by the City and the state auditor or legislative
auditor for a minimum of six years. Contractor shall maintain such records for a minimum of six years
after final payment. The parties agree that this obligation will survive the completion or termination of this
Agreement.
17. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor, and Contractor’s successors
or assigns, agree to protect, defend, indemnify, save, and hold harmless the City, its officers, officials,
agents, volunteers, and employees from any and all claims; lawsuits; causes of actions of any kind, nature,
or character; damages; losses; and costs, disbursements, and expenses of defending the same, including but
not limited to attorneys’ fees, professional services, and other technical, administrative or professional
assistance resulting from or arising out of Contractor’s (or its subcontractors, agents, volunteers, members,
invitees, representatives, or employees) performance of the duties required by or arising from this
Agreement, or caused in whole or in part by any negligent act or omission or willful misconduct by Contractor,
or arising out of Contractor’s failure to obtain or maintain the insurance required by this Agreement.
Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver or limitation of any immunity or limitation on liability to
which the City is entitled. The parties agree that these indemnification obligations shall survive the
completion or termination of this Agreement.

18. Insurance. Contractor shall maintain reasonable insurance coverage throughout this
Agreement. Contractor agrees that before any work related to the approved project can be performed,
Contractor shall maintain at a minimum:
a. Worker’s Compensation Insurance as required by Minnesota Statutes, section 176.181;
b. Business Auto Liability covering vehicles owned by Contractor and non-owned vehicles used by
Contractor, with policy limits not less than $1,000,000 per accident, for bodily injury, death of any
person, and property damage arising out of the ownership, maintenance, and use of such motor
vehicles, along with any statutorily required automobile coverage;
c. Commercial General Liability in an amount of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000
general aggregate, and $2,000,000 for products-completed operations hazard, providing
coverage for claims including:
i. Damages because of bodily injury, sickness or disease, including occupational sickness or
disease, and death of any person;
ii. Personal and advertising injury;
iii. Damages because of physical damage to or destruction of property, including loss of use
of such property;
iv. Bodily injury or property damage arising out of completed operations; and
v. Contractor’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement.
To meet the Commercial General Liability and Business Auto Liability requirements, Contractor may use a
combination of Excess and Umbrella coverage. Prior to commencement of the Work, Contractor shall
provide the City with a current certificate of insurance including the following language: “The City of
Golden Valley is named as an additional insured with respect to the commercial general liability, business
automobile liability and umbrella or excess liability, as required by the contract. The umbrella or excess
liability policy follows form on all underlying coverages.” Such certificate of liability insurance shall list the
City as an additional insured and contain a statement that such policies of insurance shall not be canceled
or amended unless 30 days’ written notice is provided to the City, or 10 days’ written notice in the case
of non-payment.
19. Compliance with State Withholding Tax. Before final payment is made for the Work on this
project, Contractor must make a satisfactory showing that it has complied with the provisions of
Minnesota Statutes, section 290.92 requiring the withholding of State Income Tax for wages paid
employees on this project by providing to the Physical Development Director a Certificate of Compliance
from the Commissioner of Taxation. Contractor is advised that before such Certificate can be issued,
Contractor must first place on file with the Commissioner of Taxation an affidavit, in the form of an IC-
134, that Contractor has complied with the provisions of Minnesota Statutes Section 290.92.
20. Performance and Payment Bond. Prior to Commencement of the Work, Contractor shall make,
execute and deliver to the City corporate surety bonds in a form acceptable to the City, in the sum of
$164,800.00 for the use of the City and of all persons furnishing labor, skill, tools, machinery or materials
to the project. Said bonds shall secure the faithful performance and payment of the Contract by the
Contractor and shall be conditioned as required by law. This Agreement shall not become effective unless
and until said bonds have been received and approved by the City.

interest in this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the other party’s prior written consent. Any
assignment in violation of this provision is null and void. Neither the City nor Contractor shall assign, or
transfer any rights under or interest (including, but without limitation, moneys that may become due or
moneys that are due) in the Agreement without the written consent of the other except to the extent that
the effect of this limitation may be restricted by law. Unless specifically stated to the contrary in any
written consent to an assignment, no assignment will release or discharge the assignor from any duty or
responsibility under this Agreement. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall prevent Contractor from

federal, state and local laws, rules, ordinances and regulations in effect as of the Effective Date.

secure and pay for the building permit as well as other permits, fees, licenses, and inspections by

3. D. 2. Authorize Joint Powers Agreement with the City of Crystal for the 34th Avenue Street
Improvement Project from Regent Avenue North to Noble Avenue North
Prepared By
Jeff Oliver, City Engineer
R.J. Kakach, Assistant City Engineer
Summary
In September of 2021, City staff was approached by the City of Crystal to participate in another joint
pavement improvement project along the shared border street of 34th Avenue North. In 2022, the City
of Crystal will be performing an asphalt mill and overlay to 34th Avenue and are working with border
Cities to participate in funding and construction for their half of the project. The City participated in a
similar project along a different section of 34th Avenue earlier this year. According to historical records,
this street was reconstructed in 2001 and has reached a point in its design life where an asphalt
pavement mill and overlay is needed. The City of Crystal would open bids for their project in early
2022 with construction to take place in the summer of 2022.
The estimated construction cost for the Golden Valley portion of the project is $34,353.75 and the
estimated total cost for Golden Valley, including administrative costs, is $41,224.50.
Financial Or Budget Considerations
The estimated total cost for Golden Valley is $41,224.50. Anticipated funding for this project is
included in the 2022 Street CIP Program (S-013) in the amount of $1,500,000.
Recommended Action
Motion to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to execute a Joint Powers Agreement in the form
approved by the City Attorney with the City of Crystal for the 34th Avenue Street Improvement Project
from Regent Avenue North to Noble Avenue North.

hundred and twenty-four dollars and 50 cents ($41,224.50).
H. Golden Valley has reviewed and approved the Scope of Work and agreed to pay the
cost of the Work within the corporate limits of Golden Valley.
2
I. Crystal has agreed to pay the cost of the Work within the corporate limits of Crystal
and to administer and supervise the Work in accordance with the Scope of Work and
the Plans and Specifications.
AGREEMENT
In consideration of the mutual undertakings and understandings expressed herein, the
Cities hereby agree as follows:
1. Design and Bidding. The Plans and Specifications, as they may be amended from
time to time, are incorporated into and made part of this Agreement. Crystal is
responsible for advertising for bids for the Project, receiving and opening bids
pursuant to said advertisement and entering into one or more contracts with the
successful bidder (“Contractor”) at the unit prices specified in the successful bid, all
according to the applicable procedures under Minnesota law. The contract (the
“Contract”) shall include the Plans and Specifications and reflect the Scope of Work.
Crystal shall require the Contractor to name Golden Valley as an additional insured
on its commercial general liability insurance policy.
2. Project Administration. Crystal shall administer all aspects of the Project and shall
inspect all completed Work. The Golden Valley City Engineer shall cooperate with
the Crystal City Engineer and the Crystal City Engineer’s staff upon request to aid in
the administration of the Project, but shall have no responsibility for the supervision
of any of the Work.
3. Additional Work. Crystal may, in its sole discretion, make changes to the Scope of
Work so long as all changes are reasonably necessary to complete the Work and
are conceptually consistent with the original Scope of Work. Crystal may carry out
the changes authorized by this paragraph by entering into change orders or
supplemental agreements with the Contractor for the performance of any and all
additional or new work it deems necessary, advantageous, or desirable. If a
proposed change exceeds the original Scope of Work jointly contemplated by the
Cities, Crystal shall not make the change unless it is first approved by the Golden
Valley City Engineer.
4. Construction Easements. Golden Valley shall grant Crystal a temporary license
for construction, at no cost to Crystal, over those lands owned by Golden Valley that
are a part of the right-of-way required for the completion of the Work.
5. Apportionment of Cost. The total cost of the Work shall be apportioned between
the parties as follows:
a. Each City shall pay the quantity price of items attributable to the portion of the
Work occurring within its own municipal boundaries (the “Quantity Price”). The
Quantity Price shall be determined based on the unit process set forth in the
Contract with the Contractor and the final quantities as measured by the Crystal
City Engineer. The Cities understand and agree that the Crystal City Engineer’s
3
Pre Bid Project Cost Estimate is only an estimate and the Quantity Price may
be more or less that the figures shown in the Pre Bid Project Cost Estimate.
b. In addition to the Quantity Price, Golden Valley shall pay to Crystal an amount
equal to 20% of its share of the Quantity Price to cover its share of the legal,
engineering, and City staff time (the “Administrative Costs”) incurred by
Crystal for the Project.
6. Payment. Upon acceptance of the successful bid, Crystal shall provide Golden
Valley an estimated construction cost based upon the contract prices and estimated
quantities in the Contractor’s bid, the Administrative Costs, and all other costs
required to complete the Work (collectively, the “Post Bid Estimated Cost”). Within
60 days after receipt of the Post Bid Estimated Cost, Golden Valley shall deposit
with the Crystal Director of Finance 90% of Golden Valley’s share of the Post Bid
Estimated Cost. All remaining amounts due from Golden Valley, including any
amounts resulting from change orders or other changes or additions to the Work
shall be paid to Crystal within 60 days of final completion of the Work. Upon
completion of the Work, Crystal shall submit to Golden Valley a copy of the Crystal
City Engineer’s Quantity Price report, which shall show each City’s final share of the
Quantity Price, and the amount of Administrative Costs owed by Golden Valley.
Upon payment by Crystal of the final amount due to the Contractor, any amount
payed by Golden Valley above its agreed upon share of the Quantity Price and
Administrative Costs shall be returned to Golden Valley.
7. Record Drawings. Crystal shall provide record drawings to Golden Valley within 90
days of Crystal’s final payment to the Contractor. All records kept by either City with
respect to this Agreement shall be subject to examination by the representatives of
the other City and the public in accordance with the Minnesota Government Data
Practices Act.
8. Traffic Control. If detouring of traffic is necessary during the Work, the detour
routes shall be mutually agreed upon by the Cities. Crystal shall require the
Contractor to furnish, install, and maintain any guide signs, regulatory signs, and
pavement markings that may be needed. Crystal shall not be responsible for any
damage caused by increased traffic on any municipal streets located in Golden
Valley that arise out of or relate to the Work.
9. Cooperative Activity. To the fullest extent permitted by law, all activities by the
Cities under this Agreement are intended to be and shall be construed as a
“cooperative activity,” and it is the intent of the Cities that they shall be deemed a
“single governmental unit” for the purposes of determining total liability, as set forth
in Minnesota Statutes, section 471.59, subd. 1a. Nothing in this Agreement is
intended to alter, or shall be interpreted as altering, the treatment of the Cities as a
single governmental unit. For purposes of Minnesota Statutes, section 471.59,
subdivision 1a, each City expressly declines responsibility for the acts or omissions
of the other City.
4
10. Insurance & Indemnity. The Cities shall carry policies of liability insurance in at
least the amounts specified as the extent of their individual liability under Minnesota
Statutes, section 466.04, as amended. Nothing herein shall be deemed to waive
any statutory limits of liability granted to the Cities. Each City agrees to defend,
indemnify and hold harmless (including reasonable attorney’s fees) the other City,
their elected officials, officers, agents and employees from any liability, claims,
demands, damages, personal injury, costs, judgments or expenses arising from any
act or omission of the indemnifying City relating to the Project. Neither City shall be
required to pay to the other City any amount as indemnification under this
Agreement, whether arising pursuant to this Agreement, expressly, by operation of
law or otherwise, in excess of the limits of liability applicable to the indemnifying City
under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 466, or in the event that Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 466 does not apply, the maximum amount of insurance coverage available
to the indemnifying City. In those instances in which a City is directly liable for
damages as well as for indemnification to the other City, the combined liability of the
indemnifying City shall not exceed the limits of liability under Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 466 or, in the event that Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 466 does not apply,
the maximum amount of insurance coverage available to the indemnifying City.
11. Employees; Worker’s Compensation. Any and all employees of each City and all
other persons engaged by that City in the performance of the Work or any other work
or services required or contemplated by this Agreement shall not be considered
employees of the other City. Any and all claims that might arise under the Worker’s
Compensation Act or the Unemployment Compensation Act of the State of Minnesota
on behalf of said employees while so engaged, and any and all claims made by any
third parties as a consequence of any act or omission on the part of said employees
while so engaged, shall in no way be the obligation or responsibility of the other City.
12. Audit. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, section 16C.05, subdivision 5, any books,
records, documents, and accounting procedures and practices of each City relevant
to the Agreement are subject to examination by the other City and either the
Legislative Auditor or the State Auditor as appropriate. The Cities agree to maintain
these records for a period of at least six years from completion of the Project.
13. Term. This Agreement shall commence as of the date indicated above and shall
continue until the Project is completed and all required payments have been made.
The indemnification and audit obligations shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.
14. Entire Agreement. This document, including the recitals, the exhibits, and any
documents incorporated by reference, shall constitute the entire agreement between
the Cities regarding construction of the Project. This Agreement supersedes all prior
negotiations, representations, or agreements between the Cities regarding the
Project, whether written or oral. No modifications to this Agreement shall be in effect
unless they are reduced to writing and are signed by both Cities.
5
15. No Third Party Rights. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Cities. This
Agreement shall not create or establish any rights in or for the benefit of any third
party.
16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted under the laws of Minnesota.
17. Compliance. Each City shall comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws,
rules, regulations, and ordinances, and shall obtain such permits and permissions as
may be required, in carrying out their respective duties under this Agreement.
18. Discrimination. The provisions of Minnesota Statutes, section 181.59 and of any
applicable local ordinance relating to civil rights and discrimination shall be considered
a part of this Agreement as though fully set forth herein.
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
executed by their respective duly authorized officers as of the day and year first above
written.

Golden Valley City Council Meeting

Agenda Item
3. E. Approve Rain Barrel Agreement
Prepared By
Drew Chirpich, Environmental Specialist
Eric Eckman, Environmental Resources Supervisor
Summary
As part of the City’s Resilience and Sustainability Plan, Golden Valley is continuously trying to better
manage its natural resources. One aspect of this resource management is stormwater, which when left
unmanaged can create nuisance conditions, but when properly managed can be a reusable asset to the
community. In hopes of making the best use of stormwater and to simultaneously reduce water runoff,
City staff is proposing to participate in the Rain Barrel cost share program. The Environmental
Commission discussed this opportunity at its June and July meetings and recommended that the City
participate in the program. The Commission suggested that the City buy down the cost of up to 84 rain
barrels by 25% for Golden Valley residents.
The agreement would work by the City buying down the cost of 84 rain barrels by 25% from the
Recycling Association of Minnesota (RAM), and RAM would then sell these barrels to Golden Valley
Residents at the discounted price. The barrels would be purchased through the RAM website and a
discount code would be applied upon checkout for the bought-down rate of $59.25. The City would
then be invoiced for the total amount of the 25% discount multiplied by the number of barrels that
were purchased by Golden Valley residents. Once 84 barrels have been purchased with the 25%
discount code, the discount would no longer be available. The barrels would then be delivered to the
City and stored at City Hall until picked up by residents during a scheduled pick-up day event.
Financial Or Budget Considerations
The City’s portion covering 25% of each rain barrel cost up to $2,000 to buy down the cost of up to 84
rain barrels, would be funded by 7303 Environmental Control during the contract term November 4,
2021 through December 31, 2022.
Recommended Action
Motion to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to execute an agreement to with Recycling
Association of Minnesota (RAM) to provide a 25% discount on 84 rain barrels to residents of the City of
Golden Valley in the form approved by the City Attorney.

4. A. Public Hearing on Proposed Improvements for the 2022 Pavement Management Program, Project
#21-01
Prepared By
Jeff Oliver, City Engineer
R.J. Kakach, Assistant City Engineer
Summary
At the November 19, 2019 Council meeting, the City Council directed staff to prepare a feasibility
report for the 2022 Pavement Management Program (PMP). The proposed project included
rehabilitation of 1.33 miles of local streets. The streets included in the project are shown on the
attached project location map.
The feasibility report for this project was prepared by the consulting engineering firm of Short Elliott
Hendrickson, Inc., (SEH). The feasibility report outlines a project that includes reconstruction of the
subject streets, replaces and repairs the majority of the aging sanitary sewer and water systems, storm
drainage improvements through the project area, and the addition of a new sidewalk along Duluth
Street, consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. The report also includes the addition of a cul de
sac on the west end of Duluth Street within the existing right of way in the General Mills James Ford
Bell Nature Area and exploration into a known rear yard drainage issue along Zealand Avenue.
The estimated total project costs are as follows:
2022 PMP = $6,825,000
The estimated costs include all street rehabilitation, sidewalk work, sanitary sewer and water main
repair and replacement, and storm sewer construction. An estimated 25% of the construction costs
have been included for indirect project costs, which includes project design, staking, construction
observation administration, and legal expenses.
A preliminary special assessment rate of $9,433 per unit represents approximately 20% of the
estimated street construction costs. The cost for the Duluth Street sidewalk is not included in
assessment amount. Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429 requires that when special assessments are
used to finance projects, a minimum of 20% of the project cost must be specially assessed. Therefore,
because special assessments are being used to finance a portion of the street reconstruction costs, the
assessments must be a minimum 20% of that cost. The project costs associated with sanitary sewer,

watermain, storm sewer, and the Duluth Street sidewalk construction are financed from dedicated
funds, and special assessments are not utilized for funding for these separate categories. The final
special assessment rate will be calculated following the opening of construction bids and will be based
on actual costs. The estimated special assessments are consistent with the City of Golden Valley Special
Assessment Policy. Optional assessments to properties for private driveway reconstruction or sanitary
sewer services rehabilitation are not included.
Following Council authorization of the 2022 Pavement Management Project, the anticipated project
schedule is as follows:

INTRODUCTION
At the November 19, 2019 Council Meeting, the Golden Valley City Council authorized
preparation of a feasibility report for the rehabilitation of streets for the 2022 Pavement
Management Program (PMP). The proposed project includes rehabilitation of
approximately 1.33 miles of residential streets located in the northwest corner of the
City.
Streets in the 2022 PMP area are bounded by Aquila Avenue North on the west,
Wisconsin Avenue North on the east, Duluth Street on the south, and 23rd Avenue North
on the north. The proposed streets are shown on Exhibit 1: Project Location Map.
This feasibility report will discuss the existing conditions of the streets, sanitary sewer,
water main, and storm sewer within the project area. In addition, the report will discuss
the proposed project design, estimated project costs, and the proposed financing,
including a preliminary special assessment roll.
PROJECT LEGAL DESCRIPTION
The proposed project includes: All properties in the SW ¼ of the NE ¼ of Section 30,
Township 118 North, Range 21 West; within the City of Golden Valley, Hennepin
County, Minnesota, that are adjacent to the following streets:
• Duluth Street: West cul-de-sac to Wisconsin Avenue North
• Westbend Road: Zealand Avenue North to Wisconsin Avenue North
• Winnetka Heights Drive: Zealand Avenue North to Xylon Avenue North
• Aquila Avenue North: Duluth Street to 23rd Avenue North
• Zealand Avenue North: Duluth Street to 23rd Avenue North
• Xylon Avenue North: Westbend Road to 23rd Avenue North
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Sanitary Sewer
Inflow and Infiltration
The Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) provides wastewater
treatment and interceptor collection services for the Twin Cities metropolitan
area. The MCES has undertaken a major effort to eliminate excess peak flows in
its system that exceeds the capacity of the collection and treatment facilities.
These excess flows can and do result in overflows of raw sewage into the
Mississippi River.
Inflow and Infiltration (I/I) is defined as clear water that is either directly
discharged (inflow) or indirectly discharged (infiltration) into the sanitary sewer
system. Among the most common sources are improperly connected sump
2
pumps or foundation drains discharging into the sanitary sewer and the infiltration
of ground water through defects in sanitary sewer mains, services, and
manholes.
The City of Golden Valley is one of many cities within the MCES sanitary sewer
district that have been notified of excess peak sanitary sewer flows being
generated by their community. An Inflow and Infiltration (I/I) mitigation program
has been implemented to take steps towards decreasing the peak flows
associated with clear water entering the sanitary sewer and contributing to these
excess peak flows.
The peak flows in Golden Valley typically follow heavy rainfall events, indicating
that improper connections to the sewer system may be present, and that sewers
may be allowing ground water and surface water into the system through cracked
pipes, leaking manholes, and substandard castings.
The proposed project area is located within the portion of the City that has
excessive volume of inflow and infiltration following rainfall events and high
groundwater conditions.
Sewer Mains
The existing sanitary sewer system within the project area is comprised of local
lateral sewers and one portion of trunk sewer main that were constructed in the
late 1950’s when sanitary sewer was first available in the City. The sanitary
sewer mains are constructed with nine-inch diameter clay pipes in the project
area.
A Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) inspection was performed on all the City’s
sanitary sewer mains within the project area as part of the preliminary project
design. This inspection was intended to locate the extent and severity of the
defects to the sanitary sewer system to determine if repairs are needed as part of
the street reconstruction project. The television inspection has identified
distresses within the City system that are consistent with the age and pipe
material. These defects include mineral deposits, cracked pipes, root intrusion,
noticeable infiltration, and offset joints. These defects are typical sources of
groundwater infiltration into the sewer system.
The extent of these defects is typical compared to the defects encountered in
previous residential street reconstruction projects containing clay pipes. Based
upon these CCTV results, the sanitary sewer mains throughout the entire project
area will require structural lining as discussed in the “Proposed Improvements”
section of this report.
The existing sanitary sewer defects are illustrated on Exhibit 7.
Sanitary Sewer Services
As part of its I/I Reduction Program, the City is offering the residents within this
project area an opportunity to have a CCTV inspection performed on the sanitary
3
sewer service to their home. Property owners on the 2022 PMP will not be
charged for this voluntary inspection during the project, which is identical to the
Point of Sale Inspections required by City Code. The intent of this inspection is
to identify I/I issues present in the private sanitary sewer services and allow
property owners to make informed decisions regarding rehabilitation of the
service lines, including voluntary participation in the repair program offered as
part of the PMP project. This sewer service repair program will be discussed in
more detail later in this report.
Water Main
The majority of the existing water main system within the project area consists of lateral
mains that were installed during the early 1960’s. All existing mains in the project area
are 6-inch diameter cast iron pipe (CIP). These mains are located within the existing
City owned street rights-of-way.
A review of water main maintenance records within the project area indicates a history
of water main breaks and maintenance issues consistent with other water mains of the
same age and material. Refer to Exhibit 8: Watermain Breaks for a map showing the
location of historical breaks in the project area. In addition, leaky, inoperable gate
valves have been discovered throughout the project area.
Storm Water Drainage
The entire 2022 PMP project area is part of the Bassett Creek Watershed, of which is
contained within the Bassett Creek Main Stem (Upstream) subwatershed. Refer to
Exhibit 9: Subwatershed Drainage for a map showing the subwatershed boundaries.
Catch basins at the intersection of Zealand Avenue North and Aquila Avenue North
collect stormwater at the low point from contributing drainage along Zealand and Aquila.
Stormwater flows north along Zealand Avenue North to a storm trunk line at the
intersection of Zealand Avenue North and Westbend Road.
Catch basins at the intersection of Winnetka Heights Drive and Xylon Avenue North
collect stormwater north along Xylon and west along Winnetka Heights Drive.
Stormwater flows south along Xylon Avenue North to a storm trunk line at the
intersection of Xylon Avenue North and Westbend Road.
Catch basins at the intersection of Duluth Street and Wisconsin Avenue North collect
stormwater east and west of the intersection along Duluth Street and north and south of
the intersection along Wisconsin Avenue North. Stormwater is directed into a trunk
sewer that flows south along Wisconsin Avenue North.
Beginning at the intersection of 23rd Avenue North and Aquila Avenue North, a trunk
storm sewer line flows south along Aquila Avenue North to a drainage & utility
easement located north of the house located at 2120 Aquila Avenue North. The trunk
storm sewer continues east through the drainage & utility easement to the intersection
of Zealand Avenue North and Westbend Road. Continuing from the intersection of
Westbend Road and Zealand Avenue N, the trunk sewer flows southeast along
4
Westbend Road towards the intersection of Westbend Road and Wisconsin Avenue
North where the trunk storm sewer continues south along Wisconsin Avenue North.
A portion of Aquila Avenue North & Duluth Street drain to catch basins located at the
intersection of Aquila Avenue North and Duluth Street. Drainage is then conveyed into a
trunk storm sewer flowing south outside of the project limits along Aquila Avenue North.
The ultimate discharge point of trunk storm sewer systems conveying discharge from
the project site is the main stem of Bassett Creek.
Streets
The streets within the proposed project area are local concrete streets that were
originally constructed as development occurred. The original dates of construction
throughout the project area generally occurred throughout the 1950’s and 1960’s.
Existing Street Widths
Typical street widths for most streets in the project area are 29 feet. The existing
street width on Duluth Street is 44 feet. Street widths are typically measured from
face of curb to face of curb. If no curb exists, street widths are measured from
edge of pavement to edge of pavement.
Street widths can vary depending upon the location on any given roadway. Refer
to Exhibit 3: Existing Street Widths for the typical street width for each street in
the project area.
Pavement Sections
All the streets within the proposed project area have existing concrete pavement
over a minimal amount of gravel base. In the 1950’s-1960’s it was thought that
concrete streets could bridge poor underlying soils with minimal subgrade
correction, as evidenced by the thinner gravel base depths observed in the soil
borings. Soil boring locations are shown on Exhibit 5: Proposed Subcut Depths,
and the chart below shows the existing and variable concrete pavement and
gravel depths at the boring locations.

As part of the preliminary design for the proposed project, a series of twelve soil
borings were taken to determine the suitability of the existing subgrade materials
for street construction. These soil borings were also the source of the pavement
and gravel thickness information provided above. Refer to Exhibit 5: Subcut
Depths/Soil Borings for locations of soil borings.
Properly constructed streets are built with a base course of fill beneath the
pavement usually made up of granular (gravel) material. This base course layer
is considered to be part of the pavement section. All soil borings taken in this
project area encountered a base course layer. When encountered, some of the
soil boring locations lacked the base course thickness that is required to meet
today’s requirements for pavement base.
The pavement distresses present within the project area are consistent with the
age of the streets. Common concrete pavement distresses include longitudinal
and transverse cracking, durability cracking, edge cracking, spalling, settlement,
pumping and patching. Patching is frequently used to cover severe distresses
such as durability cracking, and is therefore indicative of poor pavement quality.
Subgrade Conditions
The soil borings indicate that the subgrade soils (soils beneath the base course
or sub base) in the project area are fill soils overlying glacial till soils typically
classified as sandy lean clay or clayey sand. In addition, Boring 21-3
encountered swamp deposits below the fill. Organic materials are prone to
pumping, rutting, and deflection when wet, particularly during freeze/thaw cycles
and during construction, resulting in premature pavement failure.
Concrete Curb and Gutter
The project area contains integral concrete curb that was poured with the
concrete pavement, with the exception of a few isolated locations where
bituminous patching has occurred.
Pedestrian Facilities
The only pedestrian facility within the project limits is the existing bituminous trail
that extends through the General Mills Research Nature Area and ties into the
west end of Duluth Street.
Refer to Exhibit 6: Pedestrian Routes for locations of existing pedestrian facilities
within the project area.
Street Lighting
No City-owned street lighting facilities exist within the project area. Xcel Energy-
owned wooden poles with cobra-head light fixtures are present at the following
intersections: southwest quadrant of Duluth Street/Aquila Avenue North,
northwest quadrant of Duluth Street/Zealand Ave North, southwest quadrant of
Duluth Street/Wisconsin Avenue North, northeast quadrant of Wisconsin Avenue
North/Westbend Road. Decorative street lights owned by Xcel are also present
along Aquila Avenue North and Zealand Avenue North.

PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS
This portion of the feasibility report will focus on the proposed design of the project.
The estimated project costs and project financing will be discussed later in this report.
Public Participation
As part of the public engagement process for the 2022 Pavement Management
Program, two virtual project open houses were held. The first open house was
held in August 2020 and the second was held in June 2021.
The virtual open houses provided residents with a video link containing project
information on the City’s website, as well as a Geographic Information System
(GIS) StoryMap link containing additional project details and provided property
owners the opportunity to provide comments on the project. Residents were able
to view the preliminary project design, including anticipated impacts to
landscaping, trees, and driveways. Information regarding the Driveway
Reconstruction Program, and the Inflow and Infiltration Sewer Service Inspection
Program was also provided in the video link for these meetings. City staff were
available in virtual breakout rooms for the second open house, where residents
were invited to join and ask any project-related questions.
A separate virtual open house was held for Duluth Street residents in July 2020
to provide information regarding potential sidewalk layouts and to gather resident
input on the various options through a series of questions, as well as provide
residents the opportunity to provide written comments. Input received from this
open house was used to refine the sidewalk layout in advance of the second
virtual open house held in June 2021.
All written comments received at or following the open house meetings, are
summarized in Appendix A: Summary of Resident Comments. These written
comments are an important tool for staff to identify issues that need to be
addressed as part of the project design.
The proposed improvements discussed in this portion of the feasibility report are
shown on Exhibits 2A through 2E: Proposed Project Layouts.
Sanitary Sewer and Water Main
Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation
As discussed earlier in this report, a television inspection of the existing
sanitary sewer system was performed during the preliminary design portion of
this project. Based upon the results of the televising, it has been determined
that all of sanitary sewer mains within the project area are in need of repair.
The nature of the defects, including primarily cracked pipes and root intrusion,
indicates that the remainder of the sanitary mains can be rehabilitated by
structural lining. Sanitary sewer lining will be effective in repairing the defects
and addressing the infiltration issues within the City’s system.
7
The existing sanitary sewer defects are illustrated on Exhibit 7. The proposed
sanitary sewer improvements are illustrated on Exhibits 2A through 2E: Proposed
Project Layouts.
In addition to lining the sanitary sewer mains, this project will incorporate other
measures to reduce the amount of I/I being introduced into the City’s sanitary
sewer main system. These I/I reduction efforts include the replacement of all
sanitary sewer manhole castings and covers and the rehabilitation and
reconstruction of necessary sanitary sewer manholes. These measures have
been implemented in past PMP projects, and are consistent with the City’s efforts
to address all sources of I/I.
Sanitary Sewer Service Rehabilitation
As previously mentioned, residents in the project area have been given the
opportunity to voluntarily have their sanitary sewer service inspected as part of
this project and as part of the City’s ongoing I/I Reduction Program. The intent of
this voluntary inspection, which is funded by the City’s water and sewer fund, is
to identify potential sources of I/I from the privately owned sanitary sewer
services. It is also intended to let the property owners know what sewer service
repairs are needed in order to become compliant with City Code. Property
owners can use the information provided in the inspection to plan for future
sewer service repairs, including participation in the sewer service repair program,
which includes the option to specially assess the work offered as part of the
proposed project.
Sewer service inspections will begin in late 2021 for residents involved with the
project. Each property owner, including those who did not participate in the
voluntary inspection program, will be given the opportunity to have repairs
performed on their sanitary sewer service. These repairs will be performed in
conjunction with this project, but will be completed under a separate contract
from the public improvements. Homeowners will be able to have their sewer
services lined, or removed and replaced, as part of this program.
Interested homeowners can enter into a three-way agreement with the
Contractor and the City. The Contractor performs the work, the City pays the
Contractor, and the homeowner reimburses the City over a ten year period via a
special assessment.
Water Main Rehabilitation
Based upon water system maintenance records, it is proposed that the existing
6-inch cast iron water main located in the project area be replaced as part of this
project with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic pipe. As part of the water supply
modeling in the city’s comprehensive plan, it is recommended that existing 6-inch
water main pipe be upsized as feasible to 8-inch pipe to assist with fire protection
system wide.
Existing water services will be replaced with high-density polyethylene (HDPE)
plastic pipe to the right-of-way line. New curb stops will be also be installed at
8
the right-of-way line on new water services. A temporary water supply system
will be required to provide water to the homes during water main replacement.
The proposed water main replacement is shown on Exhibits 2A through 2E:
Proposed Project Layouts.
In addition to water main replacement, all hydrant and gate valves will be
replaced throughout the project area. Additional gate valves and hydrants will be
added where needed to meet current spacing requirements.
Storm Water Management
The entire 2022 PMP project area is part of the Bassett Creek Watershed, and is
contained within the Bassett Creek Main Stem (Upstream) subwatershed. Therefore,
the proposed improvements will be designed in accordance with the Bassett Creek
Water Management Commission (BCWMC) Requirements for Improvements and
Development Proposals. This may include the implementation of temporary and
permanent storm water best management practices (BMPs) as part of the project
design and during construction.
The minimization of impervious surfaces such as street pavement, which generate
higher volumes of storm water runoff than vegetated pervious surfaces, is a goal of
PMP design. Existing street impervious areas, post construction impervious areas, and
the amount of decrease in impervious area for the 2022 PMP are shown below. Since
the 2022 PMP street reconstruction is a linear project that disturbs more than 1.0 acre, it
must be submitted to the Bassett Creek Watershed Management Commission
(BCWMC) for review. However, since the street reconstruction does not create more
than one acre of additional impervious surface, it does not require permanent
stormwater management. Temporary BMPs will be included during construction and
remain in place until stabilization.

The majority of the proposed storm sewer improvements for the project area are
modifications, extensions, and/or replacements of the existing storm sewer system to
help facilitate drainage of streets, rights-of-way and adjacent properties to the extent
feasible.
As part of the public involvement process, some residents along Zealand Avenue North
and Duluth Street (east of Aquila Avenue North) mentioned rear yard drainage
concerns. While regrading the backyards of several properties on the 2022 PMP area
is outside of the PMP scope of improvements, it is proposed that a small median drain
manhole be installed north of Duluth Street to allow future drainage improvements to be
performed by the backyard neighbors privately. The proposed drainage structure will
connect into the City’s proposed storm sewer system. Staff is working with affected
properties on a potential separate drainage improvement project.
9
As with past PMP projects, a sump discharge drainage system is proposed within the
project area. This sump discharge drainage system consists of a piping system behind
the curb and a service stub for potential connection of private sump pump discharges.
The sump discharge drainage system is proposed for locations where a significant
number of sump pumps are present, and provides an alternative to discharging sump
pumps above ground into backyards, the street, or into the sanitary sewer system,
where clear water flows are not allowed.
Additional Water Quality Measures
While infiltration is not feasible due to the typical clayey soils that prevent water
infiltration into the subsurface, rain gardens designed as filtration basins may be
feasible. The City will provide technical assistance to individual homeowners if
they desire to create “rain garden” filtration basins on their property.
Storm sewer sump manholes with manhole baffles will be installed throughout
the project area where practical, prior to stormwater discharge from the project
limits. Manhole baffles provide pre-treatment to storm water entering the sump
manholes by filtering out sediment as it enters the manhole. The sump
manholes allow the larger debris and sediment that is filtered from the storm
water by the manhole baffle to settle out in the sump, where it is cleaned out on a
regularly scheduled basis as part of the City’s maintenance program. No
additional water quality improvements are required for the 2022 PMP by the
BCWMC.
Streets
The City of Golden Valley Pavement Management Program stresses the use of proper
pavement rehabilitation measures for each street. After reviewing the streets within the
project area, it has been determined that reconstruction to City standards is the
appropriate rehabilitation measure. This section of the report will discuss proposed
rehabilitation measures being recommended, as well as the structural and geometric
concerns encountered during preliminary design.
Street Widths
For approximately the last twelve years it has been the City’s practice to narrow
the residential streets in the PMP project areas from the existing widths in order
to minimize storm water runoff, minimize impacts to adjacent trees and
landscaping, and to reduce construction and maintenance costs of the
pavements. The most common width following reconstruction has been 26 feet
(measured from face of curb to face of curb), with some streets being
reconstructed to 24 feet.
During the public engagement portion of the recent PMP projects, several
residents expressed concerns about the narrowing of the streets. The City
Council reviewed and discussed the concerns and potential impacts, and
adopted a motion to amend the Pavement Management Policy to adjust the
standard street width to 26 feet (face of curb to face of curb) at their October 20,
2020 meeting for future PMP projects.
10
The existing street widths are illustrated in Exhibit 3: Existing Street Widths. The
proposed width of each street is shown on Exhibits 2A through 2E: Proposed
Project Layouts and on Exhibit 4: Proposed Street Widths.
Subgrade Corrections
Based upon the subsurface conditions encountered within the project area, it is
recommended that subgrade correction occur beneath each street. Subgrade
correction is performed by removing soft, moisture-susceptible soils that are
structurally unsuitable, and backfilling with clean (minimal silt) granular material
such as sand or gravel.
The subgrade correction planned for all streets in the project area includes
subcutting and replacing the excavated soils with a minimum of three feet of
sand and the City’s standard bituminous and gravel base street section. In
addition, it is recommended to install geotextile fabric at the bottom of the three
foot sand layer to provide additional subgrade stabilization above an organic clay
layer on Aquila Avenue North between Stations 52+00 and 54+00. Geotextile
fabrics are typically placed in areas where unsuitable subgrade soils have been
identified. Refer to Exhibit 5: Subcut Depths/Soil Borings for an illustration of the
proposed subcut areas and depths and anticipated geotextile fabric areas.
Concrete Curb and Gutter
The installation of concrete curb and gutter is required by the City because of its
engineering and maintenance advantages. Curb and gutter provides pavement
edge support and protection, facilitates roadway drainage, and eliminates the
need for ditches. Given the practicality of curb and gutter and its usefulness, the
City’s standard practice is to install concrete curb and gutter on all streets in the
project area.
The standard type of concrete curb and gutter on Golden Valley streets includes
a 6-inch high barrier curb and an 18-inch wide gutter (B618 curb and gutter). A
surmountable 4-inch high curb and an 18-inch wide gutter (D418 curb and gutter)
is proposed for the western portion of the Duluth Street cul-de-sac to facilitate
snow removal.
Duluth Street Cul-De-Sac
A cul-de-sac is proposed to be constructed on the west end of Duluth Street to
provide additional on-street parking for users of the General Mills Nature Area
trail, and provide better maneuverability for City maintenance vehicles.
Currently, trail users park on the limited available Duluth Street pavement and
occasionally block the adjacent driveways.
The proposed cul-de-sac would be extend approximately 100 feet west of the
existing west end of Duluth Street to avoid impacts to nearby private utility
facilities and to maximize available on-street parking. No additional right-of-way
or easements would be required, as the proposed cul-de-sac would be contained
within the City’s existing right-of-way.
11
Intersection Improvements
The existing intersections of Xylon Avenue North and Winnetka Heights as well as
Xylon Avenue North and Westbend Road are skewed intersections creating poor sight
lines for drivers. It is proposed to slightly adjust the intersection angle approach to the
through street to improve sight distances for yielding traffic.
Improvements to the remaining intersections include installing concrete curb and gutter
throughout the project area, to comply with City standards for residential streets.
Concrete curb and gutter facilitates improved drainage at each intersection as well as
provides edge protection to the new bituminous pavement.
Proposed geometrics for the project area are illustrated in Exhibits 2A through 2E:
Proposed Project Layouts.
Pedestrian Facilities
The current City of Golden Valley Sidewalk and Trail Plan identifies a future sidewalk on
Duluth Street to connect the General Mills Research Nature Area trail to Winnetka
Avenue North. It is proposed to construct the western portion of the future sidewalk with
the proposed project between the General Mills Nature Area and Wisconsin Avenue
North, and the eastern portion would be proposed to be installed with the future 2024
PMP project. The proposed and existing pedestrian routes through the project area are
illustrated on Exhibit 6: Pedestrian Routes.
Street Lighting
As described above, the project area does not contain any City-owned street lights. No
new street lighting is proposed for the project area.
Tree and Landscape Impacts
The proposed project outlined in this feasibility report includes minimizing impacts to
landscaping, trees and shrubs as a major design consideration. As a result, the impacts
have been minimized to the extent possible.
It is estimated that approximately 31 trees will be impacted by the proposed
improvements. The extent of the potential tree impacts due to the reconstruction of
sanitary sewer and water services cannot be quantified at this time. Because
maintenance of private sanitary sewer services is the responsibility of the individual
homeowners, the removal and replacement of trees and shrubs due to sewer service
repairs will also be the homeowners’ responsibility. Any tree removals required for
sewer service repairs will be included in the assessable costs, but replacement trees or
shrubs will be the responsibility of the property owner. The potential impacts to trees,
shrubs and landscaping is one of the primary reasons that lining of sanitary sewer
services is the preferred method of rehabilitation.
Driveway Reconstruction Program
As with past PMP projects, homeowners within the project area whose driveways are
impacted by street reconstruction will be given the opportunity to have their driveway
replaced as part of the project, at contract unit prices. As part of this program, residents
12
have the option of having the driveway reconstruction costs assessed against their
property for a period of 10 years.
It should be noted that the City may reject homeowner participation in the driveway
replacement program in situations where the reconstruction is excessively complicated
or the risk of additional liability to the City is high during the reconstruction of the
driveway. Challenging driveway reconstruction often includes pavement removal or
installation against the base of retaining walls, foundation or basement walls or very flat
or steep grades.
The City also evaluates the number of driveways on a single property for compliance
with City Code Chapter 113-88 – Street Access. Staff will meet with homeowners
during final design to determine the status of secondary driveways. Typically, a
property is allowed a single driveway unless specific conditions are met.
ESTIMATED COSTS AND PROJECT FINANCING
Estimated Project Costs
The estimated costs for the improvements outlined in this report are separated by the
type of work and funding sources. These categories include utility work, storm drainage
improvements, and street reconstruction costs. The estimated project costs include
construction costs and construction contingencies, and an estimated 25 percent of the
construction costs as indirect costs. These indirect costs typically include project
design, surveying, construction administration, and legal costs.
Discussion on the financing and funding sources for the proposed improvements is
included in the next section of this report.
Sewer and Water Costs
The estimated sewer and water costs include all water main replacement,
sanitary sewer repairs (including service wye liners), and maintenance as
outlined within this report.
Estimated Construction Costs = $ 1,125,000
Estimated 25% Indirect Costs = $ 375,000
Estimated Sewer and Water Total = $ 1,500,000
Storm Drainage Costs
The estimated storm drainage costs include all storm sewer installation, water
quality measures, and erosion control.
Estimated Construction Costs = $ 712,500
Estimated 25% Indirect Costs = $ 237,500
Estimated Storm Drainage Total = $ 950,000
13
Street Reconstruction Costs
The estimated street reconstruction costs include all subgrade correction,
pavement, curb and gutter, and turf restoration.
Estimated Construction Costs = $ 3,150,000
Estimated 25% Indirect Costs = $ 1,050,000
Estimated Street Reconstruction Total = $ 4,200,000
Duluth Street Sidewalk Costs
The estimated sidewalk construction costs include new concrete sidewalk on
Duluth Street.
Estimated Construction Costs = $ 131,250
Estimated 25% Indirect Costs = $ 43,750
Estimated Sidewalk Reconstruction Total = $ 175,000
Total Project Costs
Estimated Sewer and Water Costs = $ 1,500,000
Estimated Storm Drainage Costs = $ 950,000
Estimated Street Reconstruction Costs = $ 4,200,000
Estimated Sidewalk Construction Costs = $ 175,000
Estimated Total Project Cost = $ 6,825,000
Proposed Project Financing
The proposed financing of this project is a combination of special assessments to
properties abutting the streets being improved, Street Improvement funds, Duluth Street
Sidewalk funds, the Sewer and Water Reserve Fund, and the Storm Water
Improvement Fund. The following is a brief description of each of these funding
sources and a summary of the estimated amount to be funded from each source.
Special Assessments
The proposed special assessments for the 2022 Pavement Management Project
are consistent with the City of Golden Valley Special Assessment Policy and
Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429. As outlined in the Special Assessment Policy,
residential properties are assessed on a per-unit basis for each single family or
duplex unit. Oversized lots that may potentially be subdivided into additional
conforming lots are assessed one unit assessment for each potential lot.
However, only one unit assessment is levied with the project, with the other
assessments being deferred until the property is subdivided.
Corner residential lots are assessed one-half unit for each of the lot’s frontage
being improved, with no more than one full unit assessed, unless the lot could be
subdivided. Corner lots with County roads are assessed one full unit for the local
street being reconstructed.
The use of special assessments for financing public improvement projects is
outlined in Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429. This law requires that when special
assessments are used to finance projects a minimum of 20% of the project cost
14
must be specially assessed. Therefore, because special assessments are being
used to finance a portion of the street reconstruction costs, the assessments
must be 20% of that cost. The project costs associated with sanitary sewer,
watermain and storm sewer construction are financed from dedicated funds, and
special assessments are not utilized for funding for utilities.
The preliminary special assessment rate of $9,433.00 per unit represents
approximately 21% of the estimated construction costs for a 26-foot-wide street.
The final special assessment rate will be calculated following the opening of
construction bids and will be based on actual costs.
Based upon the current schedule for the 2022 PMP project, it is anticipated that
the construction contract award and the Public Hearing for the Special
Assessments will be held at the January 4, 2022 City Council Meeting.
As shown on Appendix B: Preliminary Special Assessment Roll, the estimated
amount of street reconstruction costs to be financed through special
assessments is $881,985.50.
Sewer and Water Reserve Fund
The Sewer and Water Reserve Fund will be the funding source for all sanitary
sewer and water main work discussed within this report. The estimated amount
to be funded from this source is $1,500,000. The Sewer and Water Reserve
Fund is financed from sanitary sewer and water utility fees.
Storm Sewer Improvement Fund
All storm drainage improvements, including lateral storm sewer extensions, drain
tile, erosion control, and storm water BMPs are funded from the Storm Sewer
Improvement Fund. The estimated amount to be funded from this source is
$1,250,000. The Storm Sewer Improvement Fund is financed from storm water
utility fees paid by all properties in the City.
Street Improvement Funds
All street rehabilitation costs not funded by special assessments will be funded
using street improvement tax levies. These levies are used to repay bonds
sold to finance the project. The estimated amount to be funded from this source
is $4,200,000.
Duluth Street Sidewalk Improvement Funds
All proposed Duluth Street sidewalk will be funded using Duluth Street Sidewalk
funds. The estimated amount to be funded from this source is $175,000.
15
Financing Summary

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This feasibility report for the proposed 2022 Pavement Management Project has been
prepared in accordance with the Golden Valley City Council’s authorization on
November 19, 2019. The proposed improvements are part of a city-wide Pavement
Management Program adopted by the City in order to provide a high-quality street
system in a long-term, cost-effective manner. The Pavement Management Program
also includes the rehabilitation and/or replacement of the existing sanitary sewer, water
main, and storm sewer systems as needed with each project. This report discusses the
proposed improvements to streets illustrated on Exhibit 1: Project Location Map, which
are proposed to be constructed during the 2022 construction season.
Engineering staff has determined that the improvements outlined in this report are
feasible from an engineering perspective. These improvements are consistent with the
City of Golden Valley Pavement Management Program and will benefit the community
and those properties abutting the proposed improvements. The cost-effectiveness of
the proposed improvements should be determined by the City Council.
Staff recommends approval of City Improvement Project No. 21-01, 2022 Pavement
Management, as discussed within this report. Staff further recommends that the City
Council authorize advertising for bids to construct the project.

for there removal if they are obstructions to the plan?
8600 Duluth St Kathleen Larson (763) 593-1190 kshagerty@gmail.com Y Y Y Native prairie garden on corner of Duluth and Aquila, A retaining wall that may encroach on ROW. Sump Pump discharegs on East side of house towards Aquila Ave
2041 Valders Ave N Kathleen Thorsell (763) 545-7179 N Looked at the map and see that Valders between Duluth and 23rd is not included. When is this street going to be done? We were on a list years ago to have had it done before now.
Secondly, are corner lots being assessed to pay more than other lots? I don't see that they should since everyone using the streets drives on streets surrounding corner lots.
8305 Westbend Rd Tom Martin (763) 591-9453 mrtn_vcky@yahoo.com Y This is in response to the Sept. 1 letter concerning Rear Yard Drainage concerns. We have lived in our home since 1998 and rear drainage has always been an issue. During heavy rains the water floods our
backyard and can come up to our back patio area. There are many times during the summer when we are unable to mow or use our backyard because the ground is soggy. Our neighbor behind us (8350
Duluth St.) runs a sump pump set up between our yards to help pump some of the water out. He is often out raking up leaves and debris that clog the water's drainage path. There must be a better
solution.
8335 Westbend Rd Karen Nelson (763) 525-1242 kanelson8335@gmail.com Y Y Sump Pump discharges in the side yard of the house. There is a drainage issue in the backyards of houses on Westbend rd. The water does not drain on its own towards the storm sewer on Duluth St
as it should. Instead it pools and floods backyards and the ground stays squishy and spongy for long periods of time. It be wonderful to fix that drainage towards the street or install a cistern such as
the one at Patsy and Wisconsin to alleviate this problem every spring and other times of wetness.
8365 Westbend Rd Nicholas Fry (651) 319-2631 nicholas.fry@avivomn.org Y Y Sump Pump is located in back yard to assist with drainage which is sent out to the street. Concerned about flooding in back yard as water does not drain properly unless I use my sump pump.
8435 Westbend Rd Christina Pollock christina.pollock91@gmail.com Y I received your letter in the mail regarding low spots and drainage issues between Zealand Ave and Westbend Rd. I am the owner of 8435 Westbend Rd and I can attest to this being a very large issue.
I have lived here for 4 years and each year there is standing water between my property and 2010 Zealand Ave. One year the standing water was 5 feet from the base of my house. Unless someone
takes a pump out to the backyard, it takes weeks for the water to subside making the backyard unusable. As summer approaches, standing water is breeding ground for mosquitoes.
2145 Xylon Ave N Cynthia Rausch (763) 788-3633 ca_rau@msn.com y y y Sump Pump discharges in the bushes 10 feet South of the house. There are trees and flowers on the corner.
2010 Zealand Ave N Jonathan Beattie (612) 636-5258 jon.m.beattie@gmail.com Y Y We actually have something that the previous owners built-in outside the house near the foundation - it pumps out onto the street.
2030 Zealand Ave N Susan Senger (763) 544-6957 ssenger@comcast.net Y Y Y Sump Pump is located in front of the house; 10 feet east of the driveway. We have drainage concerns in two areas;
1. the backyard does not drain properly and causes a backup of water into our basement. The water enters under our foundation and is found in the heating ducts in our family room and lower level
bedroom. We have purchased new gutters and large, long downspouts and this has NOT stopped the problem.
2. The street in front of our home to the east of our driveway is not level causing a large pool of water that does not drain down to the sewer. Our neighbor pumps water out of their backyard due to
the poor drainage behind our homes and this water is then left in front of our house.
2035 Zealand Ave N Brian Evensen (763) 525-0221 evens001@umn.edu Y Y Y Sump Pump discharges in the lawn near the curb.
2050 Zealand Ave N Tess Bittner (763) 542-1707 tess@amecommunity.com Y I received a letter that asked about backyard drainage issues. Our house is right on the corner of this area, and only a very small portion of the yard, the northwest corner, is in the "concern area."
We do not use this portion of the yard and in fact I was not even aware that space was within our property line.
Once concern I do have is the end of our driveway, which faces east. At the bottom, water pools up in the street. In the winter, this creates a huge ice sheet and can make it difficult to get up and down
the driveway, plus it is unsafe for walking. Luckily, our house is up on the hill so the water falls away from it. I see on the provided map that our driveway ends in the "catch basin," where there is a storm
pipe. It does not seem that the current basin/pipe is adequate to remove all the water in the winter when it snows a lot.
Thank you for receiving feedback.
2155 Zealand Ave N Larry Crepeau (763) 545-7865 taxridder@aol.com y y y Sump Pump discharges onto the back lawn. We have a 65 year old silver maple tree and are concerned about damage to the root system from the street reconstruction.
2205 Zealand Ave N John Breczinski (763) 567-9688 john.breczinski@gmail.com y Y Y Y 2 pumps, one discharges in front and one in back. Both discharge into catch basins taking the water away from the house. My sanitary sewer will need inspecting, repairing, and brought up to code. There
is a broken tile about five feet west of the curb and with our high and active water table, I'm sure there is a significant amount of clear ground water entering the system. Our sump pumps sometimes run
all winter, but especially in spring up to 20 gallons a minute. It has been said that we and our neighbors are over an underground stream.
Only one concern, don't make the streets too narrow. It's too dangerous.

8350 Duluth St Mary Olsen Baker (612) 396-4332 molsenbaker@yahoo.com Y The water pools or spreads across flat spots along its path from Zealand to Duluth street. We, like others, have a triangle that becomes a shallow lake starting in March thru May. It’s an obvious part of our
backyard as it’s beyond the plantings of water loving redwood dogwood bushes. I know we have pictures of our “lake” but finding them has proven difficult. Thank you for all you are doing to gather concerns
and information about the water that flows regularly toward our home.
8335 Westbend Rd Karen Nelson (763) 525-1242 kanelson8335@gmail.com Y Hello, I thought I would email you instead of completing the form again since I already filled that out. I am a homeowner at 8335 Westbend Rd. We agree that there are long-standing drainage issues. In the
spring and after large downpours nearly half of our backyard remains squishy. Frequently we can’t mow in the back until mid-June. Several homeowners have attempted to mitigate the situation with bilge
pumps and garden hoses and 1 recently installed a backyard sump pump. None of these work when we get those crazy January rain storms we’ve have in recent years. All-weather infrastructure for drainage is
long overdue. We are very excited to hear about what the city can do along with the PMP to help fix the lack of drainage.
8435 Westbend Rd Christina Pollock christina.pollock91@gmail.com Y I received your letter in the mail regarding low spots and drainage issues between Zealand Ave and Westbend Rd. I am the owner of 8435 Westbend Rd and I can attest to this being a very large issue. I have

8355 Westbend Rd Bob Schimell (612) 308-7293 Y Have had problems with rear yard drainage for as long as he can remember. Water can come up within 7 feet of foundation in the spring or during heavy rainfalls.
1940 Zealand Ave N George Youngvorst gyoungvorst@gmail.com Y I completely agree that drainage needs to be added for these properties. During this past spring the water levels were high enough that the ducks saw it as a nesting area.
During the summer rains the water was high enough that many neighbors could not use their backyards. PLEASE do something about this long term issue.
2010 Zealand Ave N Bethany Beattie (612) 718-0681 Y We do have issues with ground water and drainage in our back yard. We’ve lived here about 1 year. We have been in contact with the City previously, the summer of 2019 to try and address
these issues.

8200 23rd Ave N David Parks 612-240-0440 dave.r.parks@gmail.com 2023 It baffles me to no end why there needs to be a sidewalk on Duluth St. when none of the other streets in the area have them (Winetka is exception of course). It seems like the additional expense to install
and maintain it is unnecessary.
2300 Aquila Ave N Timothy Birke 952-393-1820 tbirke86@gmail.com 2021 I would prefer that duluth street maintain its current width and not get cut down for a sidewalk or bike path (although a bike path would be fine its just not needed). Also would assessments for the bike
path and sidewalk go against all GV residents or just those that live on duluth street. I am on the 2020 PMP that is being delayed until 2021 and would like to confirm my assessment isnt going to increase.
8001 Duluth St Lucius Elward 612-242-6807 luke.elward@gmail.com 2024
Thank you for engaging the community in this process. Respectfully, I don't think the sidewalk addition on Duluth is needed or in any way welcome. If it cuts down costs as part of a larger purchase
due to bulk orders or something, I still don't think it's worth it.
The concrete on Duluth is in good condition, and is not in need of replacing. The project you're proposing would likely lead to immense damage and then I imagine the street would be repaved in asphalt,
which would need more frequent repairs and cost more money over time.
Duluth is currently comfortably wide, which allows people to park on the street in a safe manner while still affording room for pedestrians and bikes. Narrowing this down in order to install a sidewalk could
give more room to pedestrians, sure. But it would crowd the street out with parking, car traffic, and bikes. And what about garbage and recycling trucks? We have narrower roads in our neighborhood.
Valders comes to mind. On any given day, you'll have people parked on both sides of Valders while school buses, garbage trucks, pedestrians, and bikers vie for passage. Duluth is wide, and should stay that
way.
Again, respectfully, I have seen modern "traffic calming" initiatives and I find them woefully misinformed. They seem to be planned and executed by people with no real stake in the community. Winnetka
is a disaster. Hennepin in Uptown is a similar mess, and it led to some beloved businesses shuttering. As someone who lives on Duluth, let me be frank. The project you're proposing is neither welcome nor
needed. It would be a huge, destructive, expensive hassle, and for what? I must confess I don't understand the goals of this project. Bikers and walkers already have easy access to the nature area at the
end of my street.
Duluth is a residential road that doesn't need any massive changes. If this is a desire to accomplish "something" so that you might pad your attempts at reelection, please stop. I'd much rather things stay as
they are. I like where I live. If things stay as they are, I'm more likely to vote for incumbents.
Humongous road changes are not needed, especially after the continued disaster that is Winnetka. How often do I see people just blasting down the center turn lane, oblivious to the danger they are in?
Often enough to be concerned.
Who asked for this? Why are you doing this? Please reconsider and cancel the project as it is currently planned. Spend the money elsewhere, in less intrusive and incendiary areas. Could you, perhaps, re-
earmark the money and put it towards education or something actually needed? This stinks of pointless bureaucracy. Please abort this project.
Thank you.
8001 Duluth St Andrew Werner 763-444-1892 werner.a@gmail.com 2024
Very concerned with this drastic narrowing of our street. We do not have two 22-foot lanes, we have 2 normal lanes + parking. Narrow streets cause problems with
parked cars and garbage & emergency (!) vehicles. Can see it on Valders. Our concrete's fine!
This proposal is extremely wasteful with no discernible benefit to me, a resident of this street, or anyone else. Having lived here for years, working from home, and observing the proposed route every day,
I'm not sure why we'd spend money to build a sidewalk here based on the foot traffic I see. As a daily regular walker of the proposed route myself, I have never felt unsafe or in danger walking on our very
wide, safe street. I love our durable concrete and suspect that adding an unsightly, upkeep-hungry sidewalk only a few people would ever use would also likely result in a cheaper, less durable asphalt
street. If we're forced to have this wasteful thing, at least waste less of our tax money and put it on the north side of the street where the sun will melt the ice so we don't endanger our senior citizens (or
any of us) walking along it.
Please, as a resident of this street along this route who will be directly affected by the choices you make, DO NOT DO THIS.

Duluth Street sees a lot of pedestrian and bicycle traffic. If Duluth Street is to be narrowed, then there should be a sidewalk to safely accommodate vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles. A grass strip between
road and sidewalk seems safer than a sidewalk next to the road, but I'm curious what the accident record says. Finally, a sidewalk on the north side of the street will melt snow much faster given the tall
trees in the neighborhood.
8101 Duluth St Joseph Grzesiak 612-597-7362 grzesiak@gmail.com 2024
With the width of Duluth Street as it is, and the fact that there is no significant through-traffic with the dead-end at the General Mills nature area, I feel like there already is sufficient safe room for
pedestrians on Duluth, even with cars parked in the street. If a sidewalk is going to be installed anyway, putting it on the north side makes the most sense as it could then directly connect to the nature area
trail which is on the north side of Duluth. Keep our street as wide as possible!

8190 Duluth St Jennifer Hassebroek 952-200-7929 jennifer.hassebroek@gmail.com 2024 8' would be ok if it was going to be a multi-use trail, but since it's just a sidewalk 6' seems sufficient and leaves more green space that is permeable.
8216 Duluth St Noelle Pedersen 904-535-0919 jnkristin@yahoo.com 2024
No other street in the neighborhood has a sidewalk-not even the ones that lead to the park-which would make much more sense for sidewalks. Duluth street as is today, provides plenty of room for safe
walking as well as car traffic and street parking. Foot/bike traffic is minimal going up the road to the nature center so I'm not clear how the city justifies this expense and ongoing money to maintain for the
very few who might use it. There is even limited car traffic that makes walking in the street a concern. In addition, I would not appreciate the burden of having to maintain the sidewalk in winter.
I do not want a sidewalk! I took this survey earlier and incorrectly answered the option for where the sidewalk should go (which should be NO WHERE) but if there is one it needs to be on south side and
home owners SHOULD NOT be expected to maintain it
8216 Duluth St Steve Pedersen 904-302-2254 speders69us@yahoo.com 2024
I think at this time the city could have more important things to use its funds for than a sidewalk on a single street in this area given how many budget shortfalls there will be due to covid. I don't
understand why this is needed - there doesn't seem to be a lot of incidents between bikes, cars and foot traffic. My experience has been fine when walking in the street. There is plenty of room for
everyone if the street width is maintained
8315 Duluth St Jerry Swenson 763-546-1457 jswenson1@usfamily.net 2022
I would like a clearer description of the various options before expressing a preference. It appears this project is not building a sidewalk, but rather a proposal to stripe the street in an attempt to separate
automobile, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic in the street. Is that correct? I understand the option to place the "sidewalk" on either the north or south side of the street. Please provide a more meaningful
description of the difference between Option A versus Option B and Option C versus Option D. Please note that the preferences expressed above are meaningless until I have a better understanding of the
options.
8345 Duluth St Duwayne Kloos 612-432-1141 2022 Really don’t want you to narrow the street up on Duluth St, only enough to build a sidewalk, but not more than that.
8350 Duluth St Mary Olsen Baker 763-525-9873 molsenbaker@yahoo.com 2022
I am not in favor in adding a sidewalk for the following reasons:
1) Because the street is being narrowed and because sidewalks aren't being added to all of city residential streets, the sidewalk is likely to be viewed as bike path and used as such. Use of the sidewalk as a
bike path in addition to a narrower street, I believe will only increase the likelihood biker-pedestrian bad encounters and accidents
2) Water runoff from rain and snow-melt from our yard to the street I believe will result in sidewalks that are regularly icy. And even if the City does clear these sidewalks, I (not the City) will be at risk if
someone falls on a sidewalk in front of my home.
8355 Duluth St Matthew Linzbach 612-963-6618 matt@linzbach.com 2022
Prefer no sidewalk. One of the things that make this section of road is how nice and wide it is. Walking/Biking are actively being safely done without a sIdewalk. Look
at Winnetka / Plymouth where there is a sidewalk and a bike lane; you’ve taken away car space for bikes yet you don’t want them on the sidewalk as it for walking.
Winnetka to the nature park On Duluth is no where near as busy as those streets and doesn’t need dedicated curb space.

What are the sidewalk impacts to property lines and street width? If addition of sidewalks were accepted, I want impacts to trees and other important property features to be strongly considered. I don't
have concern for my lot, but others may. I support a boulevard if a sidewalk were in place; otherwise, I fear what the solutions would be for snow plowing. Would sidewalks be accessible in winter? That is
a must for me to be in support of a sidewalk at all. If a grass boulevard were in place, I strongly prefer that property owners be able to plant gardens in those areas. What partnership is possible in re-
routing sump pump hose underground and connecting to appropriate drainage routes while PMP is underway? My lot has backyard drainage issues; having our sump pump hose routed to the side vs. out
front further exacerbates a soggy backyard during the spring and heavy rain. Plus, buried hose looks nicer! It would be great to have all digging done along w/street and walkway improvement.
8435 Duluth St Chris Madsen 612-710-1013 chris.j.madsen2@gmail.com 2022 If boulevard, can speed limit be reduced to 25 mph? Currently have concerns with rate of speed of vehicles traveling down Duluth Street. Also, if boulevard, would residents be able to plant vegetation in
the green space?
8515 Duluth St
Jonathan &
Ruth Paradise 763-593-9679 ruthparadise40@gmail.com 2022 The north side of the street gets the sun in the southern sky, so snow melts more quickly on that side of the street. If the sidewalk isn't cleaned right away, having it at the curb could mean that it would be
covered with deeper snow a lot of the time from plowing, although for spring, summer and fall that would be our preference.

8555 Duluth St Gary L Plager 763-567-3520 gplager@yahoo.com 2022 Will the sidewalk prevent parking on that side of the street? Will the sidewalk be both for biking and walking? I said no to the sidewalk as I don't see a need for it. I would
be against the sidewalk on the southside of Duluth inside the curb as I would potentially lose a pretty oak tree in our front yard that we love.
8560 Duluth St Kathryn Enloe 763-213-2910 kittyenloe4@gmail.com 2022
This is an unnecessary addition to the street project. Does the city have nothing better to do than to spend money in such a useless way? Between building it and maintaining it, so much money would be
spent on something that won't be used. I live on Duluth on a corner and see where walkers and bikers are coming from and it's not along Duluth--it's more often along Aquila. Pay for some counters to
monitor this traffic and you'll see what I'm talking about.
8600 Duluth St Kate Larson 763-593-1190 kshagerty@gmail.com 2022
I am opposed to a sidewalk for various reasons. However, I still made my preferences known in case the sidewalk gets installed with our PMP. If it is installed, I believe
the north side of the street is the better location for it because in the winter, it will receive more sunshine and have less potential to be icy (and hopefully less people
using salt on it.) I also do not want a boulevard because 1) I don't want more grass to have to maintain and 2) at my end of the street (the dead end) people parking
along the street to use the nature area will trample it anyway.
6520 Glenwood Ave Chris LaBounty 952-913-6052 christopher.m.labounty@gmail.com na We have been walking around Golden Valley all summer and like it when there are sidewalks to destinations and/or loops. Glad you're thinking about a sidewalk there!
8106 Julianne Ter David Miller 7633704184 divid2@q.com na
Duluth street is very wide and is already one of the most comfortable and safe streets to walk in GV. It is interesting that you are trying to direct traffic to the GM nature
area. Several years ago I ran into significant resistance from City Hall when requesting winter plowing of those trails. Finally the city put up signs with "minimum
maintenance trails". My suggestion. Make the path along Duluth to the GM park more accessible by "painting a crosswalk on WInnetka at Duluth street. Crossing
Winnetka at Olympia is a horrible experience.. Crossing Winnetka at Duluth and 23rd are both horrible experiences. Crosswalks are both cheap and effective.
8210 Julianne Ter Robert Whitlock 612-229-0548 robert.l.whitlock@gmail.com na I think this sidewalk project is a waste of time and money. I see no need for this sidewalk to be built. The current dimensions of the street are adequate for two-way

street is extended through the General Mills preserve (if that ever happens), then it will carry a lot more traffic. Wait to put in a sidewalk at that time. It's unnecessary now.
8211 Patsy Ln Jean M Kinney 612-708-8419 jkinney@q.com na
This idea is ridiculous. I live on Patsy Ln and I walk on Duluth street every day. There is no need for a sidewalk. There's very little traffic and the street is wide, a lot wider
than other streets in the neighborhood. If there were a sidewalk, and assuming it was maintained like the sidewalk along Winnetka Ave, it would be virtually useless in the
winter - about a third of the year. There are many other ways to spend our scarce resources.

Why in the world do we need a sidewalk on that portion of Duluth St?! The street is already at least a third wider than a normal residential street, allowing for plenty of
foot and bike traffic, in addition to vehicle traffic. A sidewalk might make sense if you narrowed the street, but taking additional front yard from residents for a sidewalk, on a street that's already so wide,
(and at what cost?!) makes no sense! (Also, since I do NOT desire a sidewalk at all -- refer to question #1-- it should not be required that I select sidewalk options in order to complete this survey.)

1761 Valders Ave N Susan Lussky 952-201-3239 lusskys@gmail.com na I think narrowing the street to 26 feet is too narrow, It will not safely accommodate normal traffic and emergency vehicles when cars are parked on both sides.
1810 Valders Ave N Mark Campbell 952-426-8210 markcampbell1231@gmail.com na If we have to have a sidewalk I would prefer the north side as the sun will hit the sidewalk and keep it clear. I actually like that we don't have sidewalks in GV in
neighborhoods that are primarily single family homes. Since Duluth is a dead-end street I really don't see the need for sidewalks.
1890 Valders Ave N William Parks 763-548-4896 williamparks@comcast.net
I have lived at my address since 1984 and walk on Duluth St. from Aquila to Valders 3-5 times a day. From my perspective a sidewalk on the north side would get a little more more sunshine during the
winter and help melt away the snow and ice. I think a grass strip between the sidewalk and curb would give the street a more residential (less commercial) look, so that's my preference. Lastly, when
Valders was paved 20 years ago and paid the assessment accordingly I was told that despite living on the corner, I would not be assessed for any future improvements on Duluth since I face Valders and can
only be charged for one street project. Is that still correct?
1920 Valders Ave N Erik Hassis 652-734-8068 ehassis@gmail.com 2024 There is a bus stop that is located on the NW corner of Winnetka and Duluth. This stop brings in several cars each day that then park on Duluth, between Winnetka
and Valders. This needs to be studied. Narrowing of the street will make it unsafe here.
1940 Valders Ave N Mary Merrill 763-350-7685 marycmerrill@gmail.com 2024 I walk this route frequently, and the North side gets more sun and it's blinding. I prefer no grass boulevard because they don't get maintained very well, and anyone who uses this stretch of Duluth Street is
accustomed to being right next to the street.
2140 Valders Ave N Rob Brandt 612-716-5633 rob@robran.net 2024 The proposed Duluth St sidewalk is not needed and a complete waste of tax payer dollars. Duluth St is already abnormally wide between Winnetka and the GM nature
area. There is no need for a bike and ped lane. They can walk on Duluth Street as is. .
8215 Westbend Rd Bev Sandbaken 763-544-5069 2024
I think it would help. We have a lot of walkers in the neighborhood. But, some of us who have been here, like myself, since 1965, we were promised curbs and gutters then and we still do not have them
and now I understand that we are delayed another four years which is just ridiculous. I think we should get the curb and gutter in everywhere first and get rid of the bicycle lanes. I have seen very very few
people using bicycle lanes on Winnetka. That has been just disastrous. But, in our area on Duluth St and Westbend, we have very few bike riders. So, take that into consideration, please. It’s a luxury and
that money should be spent on roads first. I think sidewalks shouldn’t be considered until all the streets have been done.
1921 Winnetka Ave N Steven Filler 612-964-9260 sfiller@mac.com 2024
I'm opposed to this proposed project for a number of reasons. Inclusion of both a 6' boulevard and 6' sidewalk is rather intrusive for homeowners on this section of
Duluth St. I have more comments but can't I've run out of room in this comment field.
First, this is a poorly designed survey in that after selecting I am NOT in favor of a sidewalk on this section of Duluth Street I'm still required to answer all other questions. This makes it feel as though a
decision has already been made and this survey simply seeks validation for that decision.
Secondly, this isn't a hugely pedestrian neighborhood. That could be due to the fact that sidewalks don't exist in large sections of residential neighborhoods in GV or people find alternate ways to be mobile
in the city.
Thirdly, may residents who reside on Winnetka Ave. utilize Duluth St for personal or guest parking. Narrowing the street to add a sidewalk limits street parking.
Lastly, a better use of resources ($$ and otherwise) would be to add a dedicated bike/pedestrian lane on this section of Duluth St. This would still accomplish the overall goal, would be less intrusive to
residents on Duluth St and would eliminate snow removal requirements from the city budget for a new sidewalk.

Thanks for your efforts presenting the citizens of Golden Valley with your ideas for a new sidewalk along Duluth Street to General Mills. The survey referenced in your letter isn’t working at this time! I
don’t feel that adding a sidewalk to the south side of Duluth to General Mills is really a valuable improvement to that section of Duluth Street. I’d strongly prefer to finish the curbing and the work on
Winnetka. I’d vote no!
2465 Xylon Ave N Jonathan Vlaming 512-490-5220 jvlaming@umn.edu 2021 It would be great to have a trail to the nature area. The city owns the right of way and should not hesitate to use it for the benefit of the city’s residents.

This form is misleading. It forces me to still pick my favorite option even though I don't want a sidewalk to be on Duluth Street at all. I've been living in this neighborhood
for a over a year now and I walk the stretch from Zealand to Winnetka every morning and afternoon as part of my commute. I have never felt unsafe. In fact, the width of
the street makes me feel extremely safe and there is very rarely any sort of "traffic" on the street at all, thus providing zero value in having a sidewalk or bike path added.
It would actually make the street worse because it is much narrower. I also get off/on the bus on Winnetka daily and the sidewalks were very rarely shoveled in the winter.
I would often have to dig out a spot for myself to stand. Everyone at the bus stop said this was tyipcal for WInnetka. If the city can't upkeep the sidewalk of a very busy
street, I don't feel confident in the city's ability to maintain a sidewalk on a side street. No sidewalk (or bike path) on Duluth!
2010 Zealand Ave N Bethany Beattie 612-718-0681 bethany.c.beattie@gmail.com 2022
Please do not put a sidewalk on Duluth! It is a quiet street with no need for a sidewalk! I am a mother to three small children and should hypothetically be the first advocate for a sidewalk, but there is truly
no need. We enjoy walking freely on either side of the street, and don't want to be pushed to one side or the other. It will impact the feel of our neighborhood and seem out of place as the only sidewalk in
our neighborhood. I am skeptical that the city will do a good job of snow removal as the sidewalks on Winnetka are always in rough shape during the winter. Why does the sidewalk need to be eight feet
wide? That is far wider than necessary! Why is there an option for a six foot sidewalk and six foot boulevard? Twelve feet is far too wide and will make our streets ridiculously narrow! I don't understand the
need for a sidewalk on Duluth. Take the money that would be spent on a sidewalk for Duluth and use it towards keeping our streets at 28 feet instead of 26 feet!!!
2025 Zealand Ave N Kathy Ricketts 763-546-6790 ricke017@umn.edu 2022
Please disregard my answers to the above questions. I am not well enough informed to have a preference. I would like to make a comment, however, and it will not let
me without answering the above. If there is a sidewalk, I would like to see a stop light at Duluth Street, because you can't see traffic coming from the north on Winnetka. Our aunt will not make a left
hand turn onto Duluth Street when she is coming from the south on Winnetka because there is little visibility. For bicycle traffic, crossing would be more dangerous.

Agenda Item
6. A. Second Consideration Modifying Solid Waste and Recyclables Collection, Ordinance No. 721
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.
