Golden Valley City Council Work Session
March 14, 2023
Agenda Item
1. Remote Fire Station Site Selection Discussion
Prepared By
Cherie Shoquist, Housing and Economic Development Manager
Summary
As the Fire Department shifts to a duty crew staffing model, the need for a properly located remote
station with contemporary facilities becomes critical to serve Golden Valley residents, businesses, and
visitors. Building on the work completed in the 2021 Municipal Facilities Study, staff and the City's
architectural consultant, BKV, developed schematic plans that reflect the various operational
components of a fire station, including specific functional areas of the station and external site
requirements such as storm water management, parking, and setbacks. Potential sites for the new
station have been identified using the established site selection criteria, which includes response time,
projected acquisition cost, and buildability, among other factors.
In this process, staff and BKV identified critical commitments and station location selection priorities.
Critical Commitments:
Public Safety: Prioritize timely protection of the safety, wellbeing, and security of all Golden
Valley residents, businesses, visitors, and their property, in all areas of the city.
Firefighter Safety and Health: Respect the service and sacrifice of firefighters with facilities and
resources that meet modern best practices for firefighter safety, health, wellness, and equity.
Station Location Selection Priorities:
Maximizing Safety of Residents and Property: Facilitate prompt and consistent emergency
response to all Golden Valley residents, businesses, visitors, and their property, in all areas of
the city, with a location that complements the service area of Downtown Fire Station #1.
Stewardship of Taxpayer and Public Resources: Integrate consideration of project cost priorities
– acquisition, development, construction, operations, and maintenance – for long-term life-cycle
cost value.
To provide timely service to properties on the East side of Highway 100, staff and BKV recommended
that a site should be selected within a half mile east or west of Highway 100 with direct access to
Duluth St, Highway 55, or Glenwood Ave. Due to response times, available sites, and traffic and safety
concerns, staff and BKV are no longer recommending potential sites along Glenwood Ave. Further
analysis of Duluth St and Highway 55 sites will be included in the presentation. Site design including
2
scale and parking analysis are also included in the presentation.
Community Engagement to Date
In addition to the engagement work completed as part of the 2021 Municipal Facilities Study and
summarized in the Community Input Report , the City further engaged stakeholders during the remote
station analysis by hosting several open houses. BKV and city staff continue to provide additional
information on the Fire Station Location Project webpage at: www.goldenvalleymn.gov/745/Fire-
Station-Location-Project.
As the Council proceeds further with a short list of potential sites for the new station location, staff will
engage an appraiser to determine property values and a consultant to acquire properties and prepare
relocation packages on behalf of the city. Early outreach to affected property owners and tenants, if
applicable, is also necessary to convey accurate information and build trust.
Financial or Budget Considerations
The estimated costs associated with the remote fire station are:
Acquisition/Relocation $ 4M
Design/Soft Cost $ 1M
Construction $12M
Total Estimated $17M
Staff has identified several different potential funding sources for the remote fire station:
Government Bond Bill (MMB Process) - Seeking 50% funding for pre-design and acquisition in
2023 session and construction in 2024 session
Bonding Bill (Rep. Frieberg and Sen. Rest) - Seeking $17M in 2023 session
Local Tax Levy - May need to fund 50% per State Law
Federal Funding Programs - Last funding source; Fill gaps up to 20%
The potential for construction costs and interest rates to continue to rise adds to the timeliness of
advancing the project.
Legal Considerations
None at this time. However, if the Council moves forward with a site recommendation, the City will
need to enter into several professional service agreements, prepare and approve purchase
agreements, and may need to use eminent domain. Property owners and tenants directly impacted by
the construction of the new station will receive just and fair compensation, as well as relocation
benefits and services that meet the requirements of the Uniform Relocation Act.
Equity Considerations
A new remote fire station that supports a duty crew staffing model will enhance the delivery of
professional emergency response services to all residents, businesses, and visitors to Golden
Valley. Facilities that provide proper resources, features, and infrastructure will more fully support
firefighter health and safety as well as gender equality.
Recommended Action
Provide direction regarding remote fire station location.

THERE ARE NO
‘SHOVEL-READY’ SITES
Viable sites (those that meet
operational space needs and
response-time coverage) would
all require:
•Demolition of existing
structure(s)
•Detailed review by planning,
zoning, and engineering.
Subject to the site, development
would require one or more of the
following:
•A combination of more than
one parcel
•MnDOT slip ramp to Highway
100 to meet response times
•Adjustments to a right-of-way
(relocation, signal)
•Adjustments to site topography
(soil removal or fill)

Operational Cost Comparisions
City of Golden Valley is likely to spend ~$1,000,000 annually staffing
two stations with 24/7/365 duty crews. Headquarters staff are in
addition to this amount.
To hire the minimum number of career staff for two stations, the City
would budget ~$4,500,000 annually*. This still requires paid-on-call
members to cover days off and to respond to major incidents.
*This is based on fire service industry rules-of-thumb and would vary based on the experience of staff
hired and negotiations with the IAFF.

In 2022, the Golden Valley Planning Commission worked closely with staff to review proposals for private de-
velopment as well as to develop new zoning regulations that expanded the variety of housing types available
to residents. The Commission also amended other language in the Zoning Chapter in an effort to continue to
modernize the City Code and improve accessibility for the public.
This included:
• providing review for major amendments to three
existing Planned Unit Developments (PUDs)—
Meadowbrook Elementary, Central Park West,
and the McDonald’s on Winnetka Ave
• approving two new conditional use permits—
one for a credit union and the other for a Tesla
dealership—and denying a proposed amend-
ment to a third conditional use permit
• recommending approval of a residential subdivi-
sion and a lot combination that involved vacated
City right-of-way
• drafting rules authorizing a new outdoor service
area use that allowed Schuller’s Tavern to obtain
a permit to establish a seasonal outdoor patio

2022 OVERVIEW
The Commission also:
• completed a small number of rezonings and
land use changes as the alignment of the
zoning map with the future land use map in the
City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan was realized
• researched and advanced zoning text amend-
ments to the City Council for consideration,
including revisions to the regulations and
permitting processes around mobile vending
and improved requirements for screening and
outdoor storage
• spent a considerable amount of time carefully
developing new zoning language that would
allow construction of Accessory Dwelling Units
(ADUs) while drafting restrictions that would
limit potential impacts to adjacent properties
• began the investigation of needed updates to
the off-street parking section of Code
In 2023, the Commission will look to:
• complete its work on off-street parking and
recommend new language for the City Council
to consider
• modernize the telecommunication rules for
small cell antennas

PURPOSE, MISSION,
& PRESCRIBED DUTIES
The Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) hears requests for variances from the requirements of
the Zoning Code, which is Chapter 113 of the Golden Valley City Code. The BZA consists
of five members that meet once a month if there are any petitions pending for action. A
Planning Commissioner serves as the fifth member of the BZA.
CRITERIA FOR ANALYSIS
A variance may be granted when the petitioner for the variance establishes that there
are practical difficulties in complying with this Chapter. “Practical difficulties,” as used in
connection with the granting of a variance, means:
• the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not
permitted by this Chapter
• the plight of the property owner is due to circumstances unique to the property not
created by the property owner
• the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality
Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Practical
difficulties include, but are not limited to, inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar
energy systems. The BZA may not grant a variance that would allow any use not allowed
