Mayor Loomis introduced Rob Smolund, Lee Hall and Jim Roth from the Metropolitan

history of the Open to Business program and discussed how they help small businesses.
Mr. Smolund explained that they offer a complete suite of business services including
helping businesses access capital, analyze leases, develop business plans, and cash flow
projections, among other things.
The Council asked questions about their capacity to take on new clients, the funding of the
program, how this program is different from other similar programs, and the length of time
the City's commitment in the program would be.
The Council discussed whether or not this type of program fits with the Council's mission
and goals and expressed concern about using tax dollars to pay for this program. The
Council consensus was to take some time to think about the program and discuss it again
at a future Council/Manager meeting.
Fire Department Relief Association By-Law Amendment—Allow Board to Set

Finance Director Sue Virnig introduced Fire Relief Association President Steve Yingst and

the Deferred Retirement Benefit. He added that each year the Board decides whether the
Association will pay a 0% or 5% interest rate.
The Council asked how the Association determines the rate. Mr. Steinman explained that
it is relatively subjective depending on how funds perform. He added that he is working on
providing more definition on how the rate is set.
Virnig stated that Council will consider the proposed changes to the by-laws at their
September 20 Council meeting.

20 Council meeting.
Urban Land Institute— Navigating the New Normal Workshop
Joe Hogeboom explained that the Urban Land Institute is offering a free workshop
focusing on new challenges relating to the redevelopment of urban areas. He explained
the goals of the workshop are to understand the "new normal" on future growth patterns,
demographic trends and market preferences. Also, to study Golden Valley's households,
housing types and strategies to support a range of housing choices.
The Council consensus was that they would like to attend a workshop. Tom Burt stated
that the Council can discuss this item again closer to February in order to define the focus
of the focus of the workshop.
Bassett Creek Regional Trail Master Plan — Request for Resolution of Support
Mayor Loomis stated that she and staff met with board members and staff from the Three
Rivers Park District to discuss the Basset Creek Regional Trail Master Plan. She stated
that there is agreement in concept, but there are some details that need to be worked out
in regard to trail alignment, winter maintenance, public engagement and plan
implementation. She stated that the City's resolution of support will enable Three Rivers to
go forward and seek funding.
The Council discussed the proposed resolution of support and the consensus was to
change the second paragraph to state that the Three Rivers Park District "is gathering"
public input instead of stating that they "have gathered" public input.
Hogeboom noted that the resolution of support will be considered at the October 4 Council
meeting.
Garage Sale Signs
Council Member Pentel stated that she has received calls regarding garage sale signs
that have been removed by city staff. She said she sees garage sales as a community
building activity and questioned if the ordinances regarding garage sale signs should be
revised.
The Council discussed the problem of signs being placed in the right-of-way and on other
people°s property and not being removed. Tom Burt suggested that the regulations
regarding garage sale signs be pulled out of the sign code and put into a separate
category. He said he would have staff work on new language and bring the item back to a
future Council meeting.

Regular Meeting of the
Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 12, 2011
A regular meeting of the Planning Commission was held at the Golden Valley City Hall,
Council Chambers, 7800 Golden Valley Road, Golden Valley, Minnesota, on Monday,
September 12, 2011. Chair Waldhauser called the meeting to order at 7 pm.
Those present were Planning Commissioners, Kisch, Kluchka, Schmidgall, Segelbaum and
Waldhauser. Also present was Director of Planning and Development Mark Grimes, City
Planner Joe Hogeboom, and Administrative Assistant Lisa Wittman. Commissioners Cera
and McCarty were absent.
1. Approval of Minutes
August 22, 2011 Regular Planning Commission Meeting
Kisch referred to page two and questioned if the condition of approval regarding the
installation of noise ordinance enforcement signs should note the times the ordinance is in
effect. Kluchka noted that the Planning Commission did not address the issue of time being
noted on the signs.
MOVED by Kisch, seconded by Kluchka and motion carried unanimously to approved the
minutes as submitted. Commissioner Segelbaum abstained.
2. Informal Public Hearing — Property Rezoning —6601 Medicine Lake Road —
Rezoning from Single Family (R-1) Residential to Moderate Densifiy (R-2)
Residential -Z014-06
Applicant: Paul B. Kelley
Address: 6601 Medicine Lake Road
Purpose: To consider rezoning the property to Moderate Density (R-2) Residential
which will allow for the future development of a twin home
Hogeboom pointed out the property on a location map. He explained the applicant's request
to rezone the property from Single Family (R-1) Residential to Moderate Density (R-2)
Residential. He stated that the General Land Use Plan Map designates this property as Low
Density and that both R-1 and R-2 meet the requirements of the Low Density designation.
Waldhauser asked about the size of the property. Grimes stated it is .52 acres in size.
Waldhauser noted that there could potentially be up to 4 units on this property.
Hogeboom stated that staff is recommending approval of this request finding that it is
appropriate for a lower density multi-family housing proposal because it meets the
Comprehensive Plan designation and is located on a County State Aid highway across the
street from one school and behind another.
Kluchka asked if there has been any other action to indicate that rezoning the properties
could be a trend in this area. Hogeboom stated that is the only application he has received
iVlinutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 12, 2011
Page 2
for a rezoning in this area. He explained that the City Council has studied the possibility of
rezoning properties in this area to R-2 but has not chosen to do so at this time.
Waldhauser noted that single family homes would be allowed to remain or allowed to be
built in the future if the area is rezoned to R-2.
Segelbaum asked about the criteria staff considered when stating the findings in the staff
report. Hogeboom stated that rezoning one parcel in the middle of an R-1 area could be
considered "spot zoning" but this situation is different in that there are institutional properties
across the street and behind the subject property and it is located on a busier road.
Segelbaum asked if staff has considered rezoning more properties in the area at this time.
Hogeboom reiterated that properties in this area were studied during the Douglas Drive
Corridor Study but rezoning additional properties in this area is not being considered at this
time.
Paul Kelley, Applicant, 3947 Cottage Lane, Minnetonka, explained that he originally bought
this property with the intent to remodel it. Due to the size of the house and extent of
remodeling needed it was determined that it would not be feasible to just remodel it so the
plan is to demolish the house within the next 30 days. He added that this is an investment
property for him and not where he would be living.
Segelbaum asked about the possibility of acquiring any adjacent property. Kelley said that is
not an option at this point.
Waldhauser opened the public hearing.
Chris Greenwood, 6531 Medicine Lake Road, said she has lived next to this property, which
has been a garbage property, for 30 years. She said she is concerned about a possible twin
home not being owner-occupied. She said she is really looking for a new single family home
to be built, but if it is a finrin home she wants them to be owner occupied so there is a pride of
ownership. She said she is also concerned about the value of her property as well.
Seeing and hearing no one else wishing to comment, Waldhauser closed the public hearing.
Grimes explained that the City now has a property maintenance program which has helped
in cases like this. He explained that the City has no control over someone renting out their
home and can't guarantee that this property won't be a rental property, but there is a rental
license that must be obtained by the property owner.
Waldhauser reiterated that there could be a four-unit townhome development on this
property. Grimes stated that the property owner would have to go through the Subdivision
process or the PUD process in order to create zero lot line properties.
Segelbaum asked if the property owner would have to go through the Subdivision process or
PUD process to build the units or just to sell them. Grimes said there would need to be a
Subdivision or PUD to sell the individual units. If they just want to build something and rent it
out they could do that without subdividing the property or obtaining a PUD.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 12, 2011

Kluchka asked what goes into evaluating if something is "spot zoning" or not and what the
City's liability is when "spot zoning" is used. Grimes said "spot zoning" is basically a term for
a mix of uses in an area. He noted that this property is on a busier road and there are other
types of uses around it and that is where higher density uses tend to be placed.
Waldhauser added that she feels there is potential to improve the property values in this
area by rezoning them.
Kisch asked if the City's property maintenance regulations apply to rental units. Hogeboom
said there are property maintenance regulations and inspections as a part of the rental
license process.
Segelbaum asked what mechanisms the Planning Commission has to rezone more than just
this one property. Grimes explained that the Planning Commission can suggest to the City
Council that they consider rezoning additional properties or the City Council can ask the
Planning Commission do further study and review of the area or the property owners can�
request that their properties be rezoned.
Kisch said he feels that conducting a study is a more valid way to change the zoning of a
larger area. He said he feels this area is ideal for R-2 properties especially because the R-2
zoning district also allows R-1 single family homes as a permitted use. Hogeboom added
that another reason the City is not currently considering rezoning a larger area is that R-1
and R-2 properties both work with requirements in the Low Density category on the General
Land Plan Map.
Kluchka said he would like to hear from the City Council about looking at the whole area and
the potential for higher values for homeowners. He said he would also like to hear a bigger
public conversation about this and what the neighbors might think about the long term future
use of the area.
Kisch said he would like to have a larger conversation also, but that doesn't change his mind
about this particular rezoning request. He added that given the surrounding properties and
that fact that single family residential homes are still permitted, he is in favor of the
applicant's request.
Segelbaum said he would also like a broader conversation regarding the entire area but it
seems to him like rezoning this property to R-2 could cause the surrounding property values
to drop.
Schmidgall said he supports the applicant's rezoning request. He stated that he hopes
flexibility brings more flexibility and he doesn't fee! that the Planning Commission needs to
force the rezoning of the surrounding properties.
Waldhauser said she also supports the applicant's rezoning request in hopes that it will be
easier for someone to develop it into something better. She said she would also like to have
a larger conversation with the neighborhood to discuss if rezoning the surrounding
properties would be advantageous.
Minutes of the Golden Valley Planning Commission
September 12, 2011

MOVED by Kisch, seconded by Kluchka and motion carried 4 to 1 to recommend approval
of the applicant's request to rezone the property at 6601 Medicine Lake Road from Single
Family (R-1) Residential to Moderate Density (R-2) Residential. Commissioners Kisch,
Kluchka, Schmidgall and Waldhauser voted yes. Commissioner Segelbaum voted no.
Grimes suggested reviewing this item at a future Council/Manager work session to
determine if the City Council would consider further study of the zoning in this area.
--Short Recess--
3. Reports on Meetings of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority, City
Council, Board of Zoning Appeals and other Meetings
No other meetings were discussed.
4. Other Business
Discussion regarding Livable Communities Act— Housing Action Plan
Waldhauser asked that this item be discussed.
Grimes explained that in order to apply for grants and funding the City has to have this
document in place. He stated that it helps maintain affordable homes and helps keep
affordable housing affordable. He added that the City does not require new construction to
have a percentage of the units be affordable unless there is some City money involved.
The Commission discussed having a document or list that they can use to support how
certain areas are zoned so it is easier to answer the questions they receive. Grimes noted
that every rezoning petition could be measured or tested against the requirements in the
Comprehensive Plan.
The Commission discussed the definition of"affordable" and asked about the possibility of
quantifying how many affordable units the City currently has. Hogeboom said it would be
difficult to do this because only affordable housing that receives government subsidies are
trackable. There is housing that is affordable and not subsidized, and is therefore difficult to
locate on a city-wide scale. �
The Commission discussed having more housing choices in the City and having future
discussions regarding different types of overlay districts.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:25 pm.

Roseville is just be�inning the study and the City of Brooklyn Park is gathering data and
holding open houses in an effort to hear from the citizens. He will keep the Commission
updated.
Kim Donat discussed her concerns about the Commissioners' desire to require solid waste
haulers to offer a discounted group rate as part of the licensing requirements. There isn't a
specific statute prohibiting this requirement therefore a motion to bring the draft ordinance
to the Council workshop the second Wednesday of November was made by Hill, seconded
by Gitelis and unanimously approved. The Commission requested a representative from
the City Attorney's office be present at the meeting. Staff will submit the request for
approval.
Ray reported that the City Council approved a recycling contract with Allied Waste, at the
Sept. 6th meeting. In January, residents will be given recycling carts which will be picked up
every other week. In addition to the single sort program through Allied, the amount of
accepted products will be increasing (e.g. plastic bags, plastics #1-7, yogurt cups). Staff is
working on the communication plan. Anderson requested that the communication plan
include a reminder of the ordinance regarding acceptable places to store garbage and
recycling carts.
Clancy spoke to Heidi Hamilton the Deputy Director of Minneapolis Public Works and
asked how their ordinance, regarding mandatory recycling at commercial entities, came
about. Heidi said it was a direct result of their City Council's desire to increase the recycling
rates in the City.

Agenda Item
3. E. Authorization to Sign Contract with North Suburban Towing for Vehicle Impound
Prepared By
Nate Gove, Operations Commander
Summary
The Police Department requests that the City Council authorize an extension of the vehicle
impound contract with North Suburban Towing. The current contract is a three year extension
of an agreement that was originally negotiated as the result of competitive bidding, and
signed on November 15, 1985. The City Attorney rendered an opinion on September 12,
1988, that indicated that state law does not mandate that this particular service be bid
competitively. North Suburban Towing continues to provide timely customer service to our
Police Department by clearing the roadways in the City of motor vehicles involved in traffic
crashes, roadway hazards and arrest situations, thereby making our City streets safe for the
driving public.
The rates as quoted in the contract are the same for the previous three year contract and
there is no rate increase. The rates listed are the same as in agreements with the Cities of
Brookfyn Center, Crystal, New Hope, Robbinsdale, the Minnesota State Patrol, and the
Hennepin County Sheriff's Office. Staff recommends the Council authorize renewal of the
contract.

3. H. Authorize Agreement Cooperative Agreement with the Bassett Creek Watershed
Commission for Preparation of Plans and Specifications for the Reconstruction of the
Sweeney Lake Outlet, City Improvement Project 11-18
Prepared By
Jeannine Clancy, Director of Public Works
Jeff Oliver, PE, City Engineer
Summary
During the summer of 2010, Public Works staff became aware of erosion on the banks of the
Sweeney Branch of Bassett Creek at the outlet of Sweeney Lake. Upon investigation, it was
determined that the outlet had been modified to raise the water level in Sweeney Lake
several inches. The modifications included installation of rocks on the downstream side of the
outlet structure. This unauthorized modification resulted in high water flows eroding the banks
on both sides of the existing concrete structure. Public Works staff repaired the erosion
damage and removed the modification to the structure during the winter of 2011.
Upon notification by City staff of the lake outlet issues, the Bassett Creek Watershed
Management Commission (BCWMC) directed its engineer to investigate the history of the
structure. This investigation determined that the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources
(DNR) had no record of an outlet structure for Sweeney Lake, and that the existing concrete
dam had been installed by private parties in the 1970s. Based upon this information, and the
importance of Sweeney Lake in the Bassett Creek watershed as a flood storage location, the
City of Golden Valley requested that the BCWMC install a new outlet structure that will
adequately control lake levels and greatly reduce the risk of streambank erosion. The
BCWMC programmed the reconstruction of the Sweeney Lake Outlet Structure in its Capital
Improvement Plan for 2012. The estimated total project cost is $250,000.
The proposed Sweeney Lake outlet reconstruction requires that a feasibility report be
prepared. The feasibility report has been completed and the BCWMC will hold a hearing on
the project at its November meeting and order the work completed. In order to facilitate the
project in a timely manner, the City of Golden Valley will complete the design and
construction of the project in 2012. An agreement with the BCWMC for the preparation of the
construction plans and specifications is attached to this memorandum for City Council
consideration. The BCWMC will reimburse the City for this work in an amount not to exceed
$49,000.
A proposal dated April 22, 2011, was received from Barr Engineering for the preparation of
the feasibility report, project design and construction administration of the lake outlet structure
for an amount not to exceed $49,000. The preparation of the feasibility report was included in
the proposal for a not to exceed cost of$8,000. The City Council approved Barr's proposal at
its May 3, 2011 meeting.
The agreement with Barr Engineering included language which states that Barr Engineering
will not proceed with design and construction plans until notified by the City to do so. This
agreement with the BCWMC finalizes funding for the project design. Therefore, upon
approval of this agreement, staff will direct Barr to begin project design.

3. L. Call for Public Hearing Amending City Public Improvements Project No. 12-01, 2012
Pavement Management Program, by Adding Turners Crossroad
Prepared By
Jeannine Clancy, Director of Public Works
Jeff Oliver, PE, City Engineer
Summary
At its October 20, 2009 meeting, the City Council directed staff to prepare a feasibility report
for the 2011 and 2012 Pavement Management Program (PMP). The feasibility report for
these projects includes rehabilitation of 1.2 miles of streets in 2011, and 1.1 miles of street in
2012. The original 2012 PMP included Turners Crossroad between Golden Hills Drive and
I-394 for reconstruction. However, the feasibility report recommended removal of Turners
Crossroad from the project due to the uncertainty of the location of the Metropolitan Council
Environmental Services (MCES) 1-GV-461 Reliever project. The City Council authorized the
2012 PMP at its November 16, 2010 meeting without Turners Crossroads as part of the
project.
The MCES has finalized the location of the 1-GV-461 Reliever along Circle Down and
Turners Crossroad befinreen Circle Down and Golden Hills Drive, to be constructed as part of
the 2012 PMP. Therefore, the City Council authorized an amendment to the feasibility report
for the 2012 PMP at its June 21, 2011 meeting to include the subject portion of Turners
Crossroad in the 2012 PMP. The amendment to the feasibility report has been completed by
the consulting engineering firm of SEH, Inc. and will be presented at the Public Hearing on
December 13, 2011.
