Golden Valley City Council Meeting

Agenda Item
1. E. Proclamation Observing October 10th, 2022 as Indigenous Peoples’ Day
Prepared By
Kiarra Zackery, Equity and Inclusion Manager
Summary
Since 1792, people in the United States of America have celebrated the landing of Christopher
Columbus in the land originally known as “Great Turtle Island” in 1492, In 1937, President Franklin D.
Roosevelt declared the second Monday of October a Christopher Columbus Day. While celebrating the
discovery of the land that would become home to many European immigrants, it simultaneously
neglects to acknowledge the original people of the land and the subsequent decimation of their culture
and inhabitance in the United States. In the land known as Golden Valley, the Dakota people were
subject to forced exile and codified dispossession of the land due to actions of government, traders
and speculators. In an effort to provide a more complete historical perspective, states and cities across
the United States began to honor the Indigenous populations of their perspective communities instead
of Christopher Columbus on the second Monday of October. Building on the Land Acknowledgement
action plan set forth by the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Commission that calls for the City to
recognize the historical and contemporary injustices faced by the Dakota people today and celebrate
their continued existence and presence in our community in a variety of facets, staff forth the
recommendation to observe October 10th, 2022 as Indigenous Peoples’ Day.

CITY OF GOLDEN VALLEY
PROCLAMATION RECOGNIZING INDIGENOUS PEOPLES’ DAY
OCTOBER 10, 2022
WHEREAS, the City of Golden Valley believes in and stands for the values of social
equity, inclusion, and justice and is dedicated to being a supportive and united community,
strengthened by the diversity of our residents and visitors; and
WHEREAS, the area known today known as the City of Golden Valley is located on the
ancestral and contemporary lands that have been called home by the Dakota Peoples since
time immemorial; and
WHEREAS, Dakota Peoples who resided on this land prior to the arrival of European
settlers experienced injustices taken to suppress, over the following many decades, the
knowledge and observance of their own cultural and spiritual heritage. This is a history that we
must reconcile as we seek to build a brighter future for all Golden Valley community members,
strive to maintain strong government-to-government relationships, and strengthen tribal
sovereignty; and
WHEREAS, Indigenous Peoples have made essential contributions to the history,
culture, and economy of Minnesota, including traditional knowledge, labor, technology,
science, philosophy, industry, and arts; and
WHEREAS, Indigenous Peoples’ Day was first proposed in 1977 at the United Nations-
sponsored International Conference on Discrimination Against Indigenous Populations in the
Americas; and
WHEREAS, Indigenous Peoples’ Day serves as an important time to reflect on the
experiences of Indigenous Peoples to ensure greater access and opportunity that continue to
impact Indigenous people.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Golden Valley
does hereby proclaim October 10, 2022 as “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” and call upon the people
of Golden Valley to honor and respect this important day by counteracting the erasure of the
cultural practices and presence of the Dakota Peoples and amplifying a wide range of voices.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the City of
Golden Valley to be affixed on this 6th day of October, 2022.

2024 Pavement Management Program
Design Services Proposal
City Project No. 24-01
SEH No. GOLDV P-168814 14.00
Mr. Jeff Oliver
City Engineer
City of Golden Valley
7800 Golden Valley Road
Golden Valley, MN 55427-4588
Dear Mr. Oliver:
Thank you for the opportunity to provide professional services to the City of Golden Valley for the
reconstruction of streets and utilities in the 2024 Pavement Management Program (PMP). The City is
requesting a scope of work that includes preliminary design, Feasibility Report preparation, final design,
plan preparation and bidding services. This letter serves as the Scope of Services for the Agreement for
Professional Services for the 2024 Pavement Management Project.
BACKGROUND
The proposed project area contains approximately 1.17 miles of street reconstruction, and 0.06 miles of
partial depth mill and overlay on Valders Court in the residential neighborhood located northwest of the
Winnetka Avenue North/Duluth Street intersection. The project is generally bounded by Wisconsin
Avenue North on the west, 23rd Avenue North on the north, Winnetka Avenue North on the east, and
Duluth Street on the south.
The following streets are included in the proposed project area:
Duluth Street (Wisconsin Avenue North – Winnetka Avenue North)
Westbend Road (Wisconsin Avenue North – Valders Avenue North)
Winnetka Heights Drive (Orkla Drive – Valders Avenue North)
Valders Court (Valders Avenue North – east cul-de-sac)
Wisconsin Avenue North (Duluth Street – 23rd Avenue North)
Orkla Drive (Westbend Road – 23rd Avenue North)
Valders Avenue North (Duluth Street – 23rd Avenue North)
Public utilities such as watermain, storm sewer and sanitary sewer are present in the existing right-of-
way. Based on our discussion with City staff at the recent scoping meeting, we understand the City
would like to replace all of the existing water main to meet current design standards. The need for
improvements to other existing public and private utilities will be identified as the project progresses;
however, the extent of rehabilitation required will not be known until after the preliminary design phase is
complete.
Mr. Jeff Oliver
September 23, 2022

SCOPE OF WORK
Preliminary Survey
SEH will provide preliminary survey services for the streets included in the project area. The proposed
survey work includes setting horizontal and vertical control points, locating available property corners and
monuments, and performing a topographic survey of the right-of-way corridor throughout the project area.
In addition, SEH will perform structure surveys of the existing sanitary sewer and storm sewer structures
in the project area. Prior to performing the topographic survey, SEH will request Gopher State One Call
field markings for public and private utilities for inclusion in the project base map.
Meetings/Project Communication
We propose to conduct a kickoff meeting with Engineering and Public Works staff at the beginning of the
project to review the scope and schedule, and plan the public involvement process. Five design progress
meetings have been included in the scope to be conducted during the preliminary and final design phases
of the project. In addition, we have included staff time for the following additional meetings during the
design process:
One on-site drainage walk-through with City staff to review existing conditions and preliminary design
One on-site private utility meeting prior to GSOC field markings to review the project area
Two open house/StoryMap preparation meetings
Two private utility coordination meetings to review the proposed improvements and identify potential
conflicts with their facilities
Two special design issues meetings for potential issues that may arise throughout the project design
process
One meeting with City staff to review City comments on draft bidding documents
Public Involvement
The public involvement approach to this project is expected to be similar in nature to those followed in
recent City PMP projects. SEH staff plans to attend two evenings of open house format meetings, either
in-person or virtually. This typically includes one meeting at the beginning of the project design and one
meeting after the preliminary design is complete. In addition, SEH will provide aerial exhibits of the
project area containing topographic survey data and parcel information at the public involvement open
house. The proposal also includes staff time to perform updates to and print the display boards used for
the neighborhood meetings, and create a GIS StoryMap for each meeting if requested. Scott Haupt
(Project Manager) and Steve Prall (Project Engineer) will attend the open houses, and Adam Knorr will
provide GIS services.
Geotechnical Street Analysis and Report
SEH has obtained a price quote from American Engineering Testing, Inc. (AET) to perform soil boring
drilling and lab testing services and we have included AET’s fee in our proposal. The drilling program
consists of 11 soil borings drilled to a penetration depth of approximately 14.5 feet, at approximately 400-
foot intervals along the streets, and two soil borings drilled to a penetration depth of approximately 21.5
feet.
Our geotechnical engineers will provide the geotechnical boring coordination, evaluation and technical
assistance for the project. SEH will coordinate the boring locations and material testing program with
AET. Staff will review the subsurface materials and borings, identify potential problems, develop an
additional boring program (if necessary), and make subgrade and pipe bedding recommendations based
upon the information that’s available. The recommendations will be summarized in a memo for the City’s
information and project file.
Mr. Jeff Oliver

Any debris or potentially contaminated material discovered will be handled separately from this scope of
work.
Sidewalks and Trails
The City’s Existing and Proposed Bikeways and Sidewalks 2040 Comprehensive Plan (Plan) identifies a
future sidewalk on Duluth Street, to connect the portion constructed with the 2022 PMP project from
Wisconsin Avenue North to Winnetka Avenue North.
The Plan also identifies the Duluth Street/Winnetka Avenue North intersection for possible pedestrian
crossing treatments. Staff and equipment time have been included in the proposal to obtain pedestrian
and bicycle counts at the intersection, and provide design services and coordination assistance with
Hennepin County related to potential crossing improvements.
Traffic/Intersection Improvements
SEH will review the intersection geometry at the neighborhood street intersections and evaluate potential
options for improvements. Additional time has been budgeted to assist the City with minor/miscellaneous
traffic issues as they arise during the project.
Preliminary Design and Feasibility Report Preparation
Once field work has been completed, SEH will perform preliminary street and utility design for the project
area. Roadway alignments and profiles will be reviewed and optimized for drainage, storm sewer added
as needed, and driveway grades reviewed and improved where feasible. Based on our discussion with
City staff, we understand the City would like to replace the existing water main and line the sanitary sewer
main as has been done on past projects.
As required by the City’s new Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit, issued by the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), the proposed improvements are anticipated to trigger
permanent stormwater management requirements. Staff time is included in the proposal to review the
new regulatory requirements, evaluate existing and proposed drainage/routing, perform modeling updates
utilizing the Bassett Creek Watershed Management Commission (BCWMC) model, design stormwater
features to meet the new requirements to the extent feasible, and prepare needed permit applications.
Sixty percent plans will be submitted for City review at the completion of preliminary design. SEH will
prepare and submit a Feasibility Report and preliminary engineer’s estimate for the proposed
improvements for the City’s review.
Final Design, Plan Preparation and Bidding Assistance
SEH will perform final design and prepare plans, specifications, and an updated Engineer’s Estimate for
the City’s review and approval as part of a 95% submittal. We anticipate including bid alternates for
grouting or installing wye liners at each sanitary sewer service location as in past projects. Once
approved, bidding documents would be uploaded for contractors to review and prepare their bids. SEH
staff would assist in answering questions from prospective bidders and issue addenda to clarify the
bidding documents if necessary. Our staff is also available to facilitate an electronic bid opening on
QuestCDN as we have done on recent projects, if needed.
PROJECT TEAM
We are proposing a team with Scott Haupt as the Project Manager and Steve Prall as the Project
Engineer, providing preliminary and final design and technical production work. Brett Larsen will provide
the geotechnical analysis and evaluation for the streets and utilities included in the project area. Design
of drainage and stormwater management improvements and coordination with Bassett Creek Watershed
Management Commission (BCMWC) will be performed by Emily Jennings. Erin Jordan will provide
oversight of traffic and pedestrian improvements and attend meetings as needed. In addition, SEH has a
Mr. Jeff Oliver
September 23, 2022
Page 4
team of technical experts in other disciplines that may be called upon to provide assistance and/or attend
meetings as issues arise.
SCHEDULE
If approved, we anticipate beginning the preliminary survey and structure surveys as soon as possible
after the contract is signed and utility field markings have been completed. The subsurface soils
investigation field work and survey would begin this fall. We expect the first open house would be held in
the winter of 2022/2023, the second open house in the spring/summer of 2023, the feasibility report and
public hearing anticipated for summer of 2023, with final design and plans following. Bidding could occur
as early as late Fall 2023.
COMPENSATION
SEH proposes to be compensated for the scope of work proposed in the Agreement on an hourly basis.
Compensation will be based on the hourly cost of personnel plus reimbursable expenses, including
reproductions, mileage and equipment. We have estimated a not-to-exceed fee of $439,900 for the
services described above. The task hour budget for each phase of the project is attached. The summary
of engineering services is as follows:
Preliminary Survey $ 36,100
Geotechnical Services and Drilling $ 30,200
Meetings and Public Involvement $ 70,700
Preliminary Design & Feasibility Report $ 127,500

RESOLUTION RELATING TO THE FINANCING OF THE CITY’S 2024
PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM; DECLARING THE OFFICIAL
INTENT TO REIMBURSE CERTAIN CAPITAL EXPENDITURES OF THE
PROJECT FROM THE PROCEEDS OF TAX-EXEMPT BONDS AND
ESTABLISHING COMPLIANCE WITH REIMBURSEMENT BOND
REGULATIONS UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE
WHEREAS, the Internal Revenue Service has issued Treasury Regulations, Section 1.150-2
(the “Reimbursement Regulations”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), providing that proceeds of tax-exempt bonds used to reimburse prior capital expenditures
will not be deemed spent unless certain requirements are met; and
WHEREAS, the City of Golden Valley, Minnesota, a municipal corporation and a political
subdivision of the State of Minnesota (the “City”), expects to incur certain expenditures that may be
financed temporarily from sources other than tax-exempt bonds, and later reimbursed from the
proceeds of tax-exempt bonds; and
WHEREAS, the City has determined to make a declaration of its official intent (the
“Declaration”) to reimburse certain capital costs from the proceeds derived from the sale of tax-
exempt bonds issued by the City or another political subdivision in accordance with the
Reimbursement Regulations.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
GOLDEN VALLEY, MINNESOTA AS FOLLOWS:
1. The City may incur certain capital expenditures in connection with the City’s 2024
Pavement Management Program, substantially as described in the attached Executive Summary For
Action (collectively, the “Project”) which includes without limitation:
Duluth Street (Wisconsin Avenue North – Winnetka Avenue North)
Westbend Road (Wisconsin Avenue North – Valders Avenue North)
Winnetka Heights Drive (Orkla Drive – Valders Avenue North)

Wisconsin Avenue North (Duluth Street – 23rd Avenue North)
Orkla Drive (Westbend Road – 23rd Avenue North)
Valders Avenue North (Duluth Street – 23rd Avenue North)
2. The City reasonably expects to reimburse the expenditures made for certain costs of
the Project from the proceeds of tax-exempt bonds in a principal amount currently estimated not to
exceed $5,000,000. All reimbursed expenditures related to the Project will be capital expenditures,
costs of issuance of the tax-exempt bonds or other expenditures eligible for reimbursement under
Section 1.150-2(d)(3) of the Reimbursement Regulations.
GL135-36-827431.v3 A-2
3. This Declaration has been made not later than 60 days after payment of any original
expenditure to be subject to a reimbursement allocation with respect to the proceeds of tax-exempt
bonds, except for the following expenditures: (a) costs of issuance of tax-exempt bonds; (b) costs in
an amount not in excess of the lesser of $100,000 or 5% of the proceeds of the tax-exempt bonds; or
(c) “preliminary expenditures” up to an amount not in excess of 20% of the aggregate issue price of
the tax-exempt bonds that are reasonably expected by the City to finance the Project. The term
“preliminary expenditures” includes architectural, engineering, surveying, soil testing, bond issuance
and similar costs that are incurred prior to commencement of acquisition, construction, or
rehabilitation of the Project, excluding land acquisition, site preparation, and similar costs incident to
commencement of construction.
4. A reimbursement allocation with respect to tax-exempt bonds will be made not later
than 18 months after the later of: (i) the date the original expenditure is paid; or (ii) the date the Project
is placed in service or abandoned, but in no event more than 3 years after the original expenditure.
5. This Declaration is an expression of the reasonable expectations of the City based on
the facts and circumstances known to the City as of the date hereof. The anticipated original
expenditures for the Project and the principal amount of the tax-exempt bonds described in paragraph
2 are consistent with the City’s budgetary and financial circumstances. No sources other than
proceeds of tax-exempt bonds are reasonably expected to be reserved, allocated on a long-term basis,
or otherwise set aside pursuant to the City’s budget or financial policies to pay such expenditures for
which bonds are issued.
6. The action is intended to constitute a declaration of official intent for purposes of the
Reimbursement Regulations.
Adopted by the City Council of Golden Valley, Minnesota this 6th day of October, 2022.

3. I. Adopt Resolution No. 22-091 for Douglas Drive and Trunk Highway 55 Underpass Project Easement
Acquisitions
Prepared By
Jeff Oliver, PE, City Engineer
R.J. Kakach, PE, Assistant City Engineer
Summary
In March of 2020, City Council authorized a professional services agreement with WSB & Associates,
Inc. for preliminary design services on the Douglas Drive/Trunk Highway 55 Pedestrian Underpass and
Roundabout Project. The preliminary design advanced the project design from the 30% level to the
75% level in order to submit for State funding through the Senate Capital Investment Committee. The
solicitation was successful and $6,500,000 of state funding for the project was included in the 2020
Bonding Bill.
The project requires acquiring temporary and permanent easements from three properties adjacent to
the project. The three properties are shown on the attached Location Map and are listed below:
• 6401 Westchester Circle
• 6125 Olson Memorial Highway
• 6250 Olson Memorial Highway
The State of Minnesota, through the Perpich Center for Arts Education, will be dedicating the needed
easements at no cost to the City.
Appraisals were performed and offers extended to the two remaining property owners. Negotiations
are continuing but final agreements have not been reached. In order to keep the project on schedule
for bidding in February of 2023 the City will need to certify that all easements have been secured.
Therefore, staff has notified the two property owners that Quick Take Acquisition proceedings would
be filed in early October of 2022. If continued negotiations do not result in agreements the required
easements will be finalized by District Courts in approximately 90 after proceedings are initiated. Both
property owners understand the need to file for Quick Take Acquisitions and have agreed to continue
negotiations through the process.

Qualification Governing Approval as a Minor Consolidation
According to Section 109-121 of the City’s Platting Regulations, the following govern approval of minor
consolidations with staff comments related to this request:
Factor/Finding
1. A minor subdivision shall be denied if the proposed lots do not meet the minimum area
and dimensional requirements for the Zoning District in which they are located, or if vehicular
access is not provided from an abutting improved street.
Standard met. The consolidated lot would meet the minimum requirements of the Single-
Family Residential Zoning District and has access to an abutting improved street.
2. A minor subdivision may be denied upon the City’s determination that a resulting new lot
is encumbered by steep slopes or excessive wetness.
Standard met. While the lot does have notable topography, it has not prevented the
construction and use of a single-family home.
3. A minor subdivision may be denied if sewer and water connections are not directly
accessible by each proposed lot.
Standard met. Established sewer and water connections exist – no changes are anticipated.
4. Approval shall be conditioned on the granting of easements for necessary public purposes.
Standard conditionally met. New drainage and utility easements must be included on the final
plat.
5. Approval may be conditioned on the requirements of outside public agencies with
jurisdiction.
Not applicable.
6. Approval shall be conditioned on the resolution of any title issues raised by the City
Attorney.
Standard conditionally met. The City Attorney will determine if such a title review is necessary
prior to approval of the final plat.
7. Minor subdivisions of nonresidential parcels may be denied if new development will cause
undo strain on adjacent roads or on public utilities or will adversely affect adjacent uses.
Not applicable.
8. Approval shall be conditioned on the payment of a park dedication fee, sewer and water
access charge, and pending or levied deferred assessments.
Standard met. No additional fees are required as a result of this action.

9. The conditions spelled out shall provide the only basis for denial of a minor subdivision.
Approval will be granted to any application that meets the established conditions.
Standard met.
Discussion at Planning Commission
The Planning Commission asked questions of staff regarding the vacation process and how the area
would be transferred to the applicant. Staff also noted that the construction of the proposed shed would
require a variance and that the hearing on that topic was scheduled for September 27. Even if the shed is
not allowed, with the consolidation the applicant would be allowed to continue to use the concrete slab
as it currently is positioned for a patio.
The Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the consolidation (4-0).
Financial Or Budget Considerations
None.
Recommended Action
Motion to approve the Preliminary Plan for the proposed minor consolidation at 4501 Merribee Drive,
subject to the following conditions:
1. All required drainage and utility easements shall be included on the final plat.
2. The City Attorney will determine if a title review is necessary prior to approval of the final plat.

Property address: 4501 Merribee Drive
Applicant: Nancy Lyons
Property owners: Nancy Lyons and Laura Niewald

Summary
Nancy Lyons, homeowner at 4501 Merribee Drive, is proposing to combine her single‐family property
with newly vacated adjacent right‐of‐way to increase the size of her lot and create space for a
potential future shed. There is one existing single‐family home at this address which would be not be
altered.
Background and Existing Conditions
The subject property is zoned Single‐Family Residential (R‐1) is currently just under 14,000 square
feet. It is a corner lot and fronts onto Merribee Drive to the north and Lee Ave North to the east. The
right‐of‐way to the east was previously owned by the property at 4444 Merribee Drive. In 1965, it was
deeded to the City as a right‐of‐way easement in order to provide access to new lots to the south.
In 2021, the applicant pursued constructing a shed near this right‐of‐way in a space she assumed was
a side yard but is in reality a front yard. A cement slab was poured prior to realizing this error. In
working with staff, the applicant further discovered that the existing fence to the east was outside of
the property line and sits within the right‐of‐way. As a result, the newly poured slab also extends
beyond the property line.
Because of the topography and the difference in elevation from the north portion of the lot to the
south (rear yard), the applicant wished to pursue a path that could allow the planned shed to remain
in its current location. After examination of the wide right‐of‐way to the east, Engineering staff
determined that there is excess land that could be vacated and returned to the property owner at
4444 Merribee, as this was the original plat from which the right‐of‐way easement was obtained.
Those owners have agreed to sell the land to 4501 Merribee so that it can be combined with the
existing lot and create a larger front yard along Lee Ave.
Still, the construction of a shed in a front yard is not allowed by code, so a variance is being pursued
through the Board of Zoning Appeals later in the month. Regardless of the outcome of that hearing,
the City is comfortable transferring the vacated land to an adjacent property owner.
Engineering staff have established that a sufficient boulevard with remains to accommodate snow
storage. No utilities are located within the vacated are that is to be combined with 4051 Merribee.
Staff Review
R‐1 Lot Requirements
For a lot in an R‐1 zoning district, the standard minimum lot size is 10,000 square feet and – for a
corner lot – the minimum width is 100 feet at the front setback line. This width must be maintained to
a depth of 70 feet from the front lot line.
The proposed combination would create a lot of approximately 15,990 square feet with widths of
over 100 feet along both Merribee and Lee. The new lot would maintain those widths to a depth of 70
feet from the front lot line.
Minor Consolidation Eligibility
3
There are three conditions laid out in the City Code for a request to be considered a minor
consolidation action:
1. The land to be subdivided or consolidated must be part of a recorded plat or a recorded
registered land survey (RLS)
2. Consolidations may involve any number of parcels, but subdivisions shall be limited to the
creation of four or fewer lots from one or more original parcels
3. The subdivision or consolidation shall not necessitate any additional public investment in new
roads or utilities to serve the lots.
Sec. 109‐119. ‐ Eligibility for Application.
In the case of 4051 Merribee, the lot meets all three conditions.
Additional Department Review
Beyond the initial review to establish the area of right‐of‐way that could be vacated, Engineering staff
have no additional comments.
The Fire Department has reviewed the application and has no comments or concerns.

excess of ROW so the City vacated a portion to the homeowner so they can place a shed in the
intended location.
The portion of ROW was previously deeded to the City by the neighboring property so the City had to
vacate back to the original owner. Now the neighboring property is deeding it to 4501 Merribee.
City Council has approved the ROW vacation for the homeowner.
Staff displayed the lot, ROW, and shed location. Engineering has confirmed no utilities are located
within the ROW and there is sufficient boulevard for future snow storage.
The lot meets the three standards for Minor Consolidation Eligibility.
Staff reviewed the nine qualifications governing approval.
Recommended Action
Staff recommends approval of the proposed minor consolidation, subject to the following conditions:
1. All required drainage and utility easements shall be included on the final plat.
2. The City Attorney will determine if a title review is necessary prior to final plat approval
Chair Pockl asked staff if the easement in the ROW was no longer needed and staff clarified the
remainder of the easement is. The City vacated a portion of the ROW, not the entire ROW.
Additionally, the original
Chair Pockl invited the applicants to speak.
Nancy Lyons, homeowner, stated that the neighbors have been supportive and offered to answer
questions but stated staff reviewed the request well. Members did not have questions for the
applicant.
Chair Pockl opened the public hearing at 6:43pm.
There were no in person comments.
Ron Jones
2450 Lee Ave
We are very supportive of what Laura and Nancy are proposing.
Chair Pockl closed the public hearing at 6:15pm
Commissioner Ginis commented on how many odd areas of deeded and vacated easements there
are in cities and is glad Golden Valley is working with the homeowner to clear this easement/vacation
area up. The homeowner has been following City rules, guided by staff, and she feels approving is an
easy decision. Commissioner Brenna echoed this comment. Commissioner Segelbaum added that
each factor and finding as required has been met and therefore the request should be granted.

Agenda Item
4. D. Public Hearing – Conditional Use Permit No. 173 to Allow for the Operation of a Drive-thru Facility
at 650 Douglas Drive North, Ordinance No. 745
Prepared By
Jason Zimmerman, Planning Manager
Summary
Zeke Hellebrand, representing Baxter Credit Union (BCU), is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to
operate a drive-thru at an existing but vacant bank building at 650 Douglas Drive North.
For more details on the existing site conditions, proposal details, and City staff review, please refer to the
copy of the staff memo to the Planning Commission. This Executive Summary will focus on the evaluations
of findings for the conditional use permit.
At its meeting on September 12, the Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the
conditional use permit (5-0).
Evaluation
Section 113-30 (d) of the City Code states that the findings and recommendations for a Conditional Use
Permit are based upon any or all of the following factors:
Factor Finding
1. Demonstrated Need for Proposed Use Standard met. In addition to the local
population base who use BCU for their banking
needs, the use of drive-thru facilities has
become more important in a post-pandemic
world. Utilizing existing infrastructure to meet
this demand is a good use of resources.
2. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan Standard met. The enhancement and reuse of
the existing facility would restore a
retail/service use along a corridor which is
currently focused on housing and/or industrial
operations. The creation of jobs is consistent

with the purposed of the Employment Mixed
Use designation.
3. Effect upon Property Values Standard met. Reintroducing a six-day a week
business into a vacant property, along with the
planned improvements, would only help
improve property values in the area.
4. Effect on Traffic Flow and Congestion Standard conditionally met. Given the current
layout of the queuing lane for the drive-thru,
and the access located on the frontage road
rather than Douglas Drive, no impacts to traffic
flow outside of the site are expected. A
secondary access point directly to the parking
lot helps balance the distribution of trips. Four
bicycle spaces must be provided as required by
code.
5. Effect of Increases in Population and
Density
Standard met. The target numbers of 23-26
employees per day is a reasonable increase in
the employment density of the site and is not
expected to have any impact on the
surrounding area.
6. Compliance with the City’s Mixed-Income
Housing Policy
Not applicable.
7. Increase in Noise Levels Standard met. No such problems are
expected. The drive-thru speakers are not
located near any other residential or
retail/service uses and would otherwise be
obscured by the noise from vehicles traveling
along Douglas Drive.
8. Generation of Odors, Dust, Smoke, Gas, or
Vibration
Standard met. No such problems are
expected.
9. Any Increase in Pests or Vermin Standard met. No such problems are
expected.
10. Visual Appearance Standard met. Improvements to the drive-thru
lanes, the building’s exterior, the parking lot,
signage, and landscaping will enhance the
visual appeal of the property.

11. Other Effects upon the General Public
Health, Safety, and Welfare
Standard met. No negative impacts are
anticipated. The reuse of the vacant building is
expected to have a positive effect for the city.
Based on the findings above, staff recommends approval of Conditional Use Permit 173, allowing for
the operation of a drive-thru facility at 650 Douglas Drive North. Consistent with State statute, a
certified copy of the CUP must be recorded with Hennepin County. The approval of this permit is
subject to the following conditions:
1. Four bicycle spaces, available for use by the public, shall be provided.
Financial Or Budget Considerations
None

Summary of Request
Zeke Hellebrand, representing Baxter Credit Union (BCU), is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to
operate a drive‐thru at an existing but vacant bank building at 650 Douglas Drive North.
Background and Existing Conditions
650 Douglas Drive is an approximately three‐acre site that is surrounded by roads on three sides
(Douglas Drive to the west, the frontage road to the north and east). The Lock‐Up storage facility is
located immediately to the south. It contains a 7,525 sq ft, one‐story building with seven drive‐thru
lanes along Douglas Dive and two access points onto the frontage road.
The bank building was constructed in the late 1970s and was significantly remodeled by BNC
National Bank in 2003. Sometime after 2019, BNC closed and the building has been vacant ever
since. BCU purchased the property in 2022 and will do interior work as well as make modifications
to the existing drive‐thru area.
Staff has been unable to find any record of a conditional use permit being discussed or issued for
the BNC bank. When BCU approached the City about moving in to this location, staff advised them
it would be necessary to apply for a CUP and go through the approval process.
Proposal
BCU proposes to reduce the number of drive‐thru lanes at this location, going from seven to four
with a pass‐thru lane. Two of the lanes will be full‐service while the other two will be ATM lanes. As
part of the work along the west side of the building, a portion of the paved queuing space will be
removed and converted to turf and vegetation, reducing the amount of impervious coverage.
Other planned site improvements include the construction of a trash enclosure adjacent to the east
parking lot, the replacement of pavement and curbs, and the installation of a landscaped island.
The accessible route to the building will also be improved.
Work at this location unrelated to the CUP (the drive‐thru) will still require staff review and
approval, including improvements to landscaping and removal of any infected ash trees. A portion
of the site may contain a wetland – if so, it will need to be protected with a native vegetation
buffer. Any new exterior lighting will need to meet the City’s “dark skies” requirements.
Staff Review
Drive‐thru Revisions
A primary consideration in the adjustments proposed to the drive‐thru lanes is the increase in the
width of each lane and a reduction in the number. Instead of six narrow drive‐thru lanes (and one
pass‐through lane), the reconfiguration will result in four drive‐thru lanes each 13’‐9” to 14’‐3”
wide. A pass‐through lane will remain to the west of the drive‐thru area.
In addition, approximately 2,400 sq ft of impervious pavement will be removed immediately north
of the drive‐thru lanes and be replaced with vegetation. An adjacent low area in the lawn may be
3
determined to be a wetland. If so, a native vegetation buffer of at least 15 feet wide would need to
be planted.
Parking
While not directly related to the drive‐thru, the applicant intends to improve the parking lot on the
east side of the building. Three existing spaces will be removed in order to construct a trash enclose
and to create a required landscaped island to break up an uninterrupted row of parking stalls. At 47
spaces, the proposal is still well above the minimum required parking ratio of 1 per 300 sq ft or 25
spaces.
Bicycle parking is required at a rate of 5% of the minimum number of vehicle spaces or a minimum
of four bicycle spaces. Four bicycle spaces available to the public are required to be installed.
Accommodating this alternative form of transportation aids in off‐setting the vehicles that will be
arriving at the site to use the drive‐thru. Proximity to the Luce Line Regional Trail makes this
installation even more appropriate.
Trees and Landscaping
In the course of completing other site work, including the replacement of the sanitary sewer line,
some landscaping will be removed or disturbed. A permit will need to be obtained to replace this
landscaping and to meet the City’s minimum requirements. Natural Resource staff have indicated
that any diseased ash trees will need to be removed and replaced.
Stormwater
Repair/replacement of portions of the existing pavement and curbing are anticipated. If one‐half
acre is disturbed down to native soils, water quality treatment and rate control will need to be
implemented consistent with City standards.
Additional Department Review
Engineering staff noted that landscaping and other site work would trigger the need for a tree and
landscape permit and a stormwater management permit. The Fire Department had no comments
or concerns.
Evaluation
The findings and recommendations for a Conditional Use Permit are based upon any or all of the
following factors:
Factor Finding
1. Demonstrated Need for Proposed Use Standard met. In addition to the local
population base who use BCU for their banking
needs, the use of drive‐thru facilities has
become more important in a post‐pandemic
world. Utilizing existing infrastructure to meet
this demand is a good use of resources.

2. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan Standard met. The enhancement and reuse of
the existing facility would restore a
retail/service use along a corridor which is
currently focused on housing and/or industrial
operations. The creation of jobs is consistent
with the purposed of the Employment Mixed
Use designation.
3. Effect upon Property Values Standard met. Reintroducing a six‐day a week
business into a vacant property, along with the
planned improvements, would only help
improve property values in the area.
4. Effect on Traffic Flow and Congestion Standard conditionally met. Given the current
layout of the queuing lane for the drive‐thru,
and the access located on the frontage road

flow outside of the site are expected. A
secondary access point directly to the parking

code.
5. Effect of Increases in Population and

Standard met. The target numbers of 23‐26
employees per day is a reasonable increase in
the employment density of the site and is not
expected to have any impact on the
surrounding area.
6. Compliance with the City’s Mixed‐Income
Housing Policy
Not applicable.
7. Increase in Noise Levels Standard met. No such problems are
expected. The drive‐thru speakers are not
located near any other residential or
retail/service uses and would otherwise be
obscured by the noise from vehicles traveling
along Douglas Drive.
8. Generation of Odors, Dust, Smoke, Gas, or
Vibration
Standard met. No such problems are
expected.
9. Any Increase in Pests or Vermin Standard met. No such problems are
expected.

10. Visual Appearance Standard met. Improvements to the drive‐thru
lanes, the building’s exterior, the parking lot,

visual appeal of the property.
11. Other Effects upon the General Public
Health, Safety, and Welfare
Standard met. No negative impacts are
anticipated. The reuse of the vacant building is
expected to have a positive effect for the city.
Recommended Action
Based on the findings above, staff recommends approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 173,
allowing for the operation of a drive‐thru facility at 650 Douglas Drive North, with the following
condition:
1. Four bicycle spaces, available for use by the public, shall be provided.
This approval is subject to all other state, federal, and local ordinances, regulations, or laws with
authority over this development. Failure to comply with one of more of the above conditions shall
be grounds for revocation of the CUP.
Consistent with State statute, a certified copy of the CUP must be recorded with Hennepin County.

the operation of a drive‐thru facility at 650 Douglas Drive North, with the following condition:
1. Four bicycle spaces, available for use by the public, shall be provided.
Chair Pockl clarified that a CUP is being required for the applicant to place a drive‐through in an area
where one already exists without a CUP. Staff responded that the original drive‐through was built
before a conditional use permit was required and this will allow the City to review the plans in
greater detail and noted there had not been past complaints.
Chair Pockl invited the applicant to speak.
Zeke Hellenbrand, applicant, stated that staff gave a thorough presentation and expanded on BCU as
an organization.
Commissioner Ginis commented that this location is the nexus for numerous bike trails/paths as well
as a bus stop. Adding that while those don’t fall within the purview of the Planning Commission, she
encouraged the applicant to keep that information in the front of their mind.
Chair Pockl opened the public hearing at 6:59pm.
No in person comments.
No remote comments.
Chair Pockl closed the public hearing at 7:02pm
Chair Pockl noted that the use seems consistent with the standards that need to be met. Pockl added
that staff’s findings are reasonable and it makes sense to have a CUP for this project. Commissioner
Segelbaum echoed these comments and noted the enhancements the applicant is agreeing to.

650 N Douglas Dr.
Golden Valley, MN
Conditional Use Permit | Drive-Thru Facility
From a humble beginning at Baxter Healthcare, to one of the nation’s Top 100 credit unions, BCU
continues to grow. Serving more than 295,000 members in the United States and Puerto Rico, our goal is
to empower members to find financial freedom. We are “Here Today For Your Tomorrow” meaning we
are here for life’s journey and will offer members everything they need to experience a bright financial
future.
BCU proudly provides credit union services to elite employer groups across the US and Puerto Rico and a
valuable employee benefit. The Twin Cities area is home to some of our major partners including
Target, United Health Group and Boston Scientific, among others.
Most of BCUs branches exist inside our employer partners’ office spaces which means that members
need to have access to the facility to leverage the in-person credit union services. The recent and
ongoing pandemic has fundamentally changed in-person working resulting in fewer employees regularly
going into the office and thereby limiting their access to the Credit Union.
The property at 650 N Douglas Dr. will soon become BCUs newest branch and will be open to our
roughly 30,000 members and their families who may not have access to a corporate facility or will prefer
the convenience of the new location, especially with the drive-thru feature.
In addition, to changing in-person work preferences, the pandemic has forever altered the way many of
us interact with businesses. During the early days of the pandemic, when many bank and credit union
lobbies were closed like so many other businesses, BCU maintained operation of our Crystal Lake, IL
drive-thru (our only drive-thru at the time) providing critical access to banking services which were
otherwise unavailable at other institutions during this time. Indeed, it was a lifeline to many members
who otherwise would have been without local, personal access to their finances. While hopefully the
worst of the pandemic is over, the culture, convenience and even necessity of drive-thru and pick up
services for financial institutions and businesses alike remains.
The property at 650 N Douglas Dr is a 7,525 sq ft financial institution with an existing seven lane
attached drive-thru accessory. Previously occupied by BNC National Bank, BCU purchased and took
possession of the building in May of 2022. BCU is applying for a Conditional Use Permit to re-establish
the operations of the drive-thru. Separate to this application, a thorough remodel of the interior is
planned as well to create a modern and welcoming service environment.
Currently there are seven drive-thru lanes. While the drive-thru is an important part of our members’
access to Credit Union services, we feel that need for seven functioning lanes is excessive. Our proposal
includes plans to maintain the existing drive-thru footprint while reducing the number of lanes to four
(plus an additional pass-thru lanes). Reducing the number of lanes within the existing footprint allows
the lanes to be configured to accommodate larger vehicles comfortably. The final four lanes will consist
of two fully transactional lanes and two full-function ATM lanes.
The interior space will roughly be divided into two sections of roughly equal size: a retail section and
administrative section. The retail section will be open to our members to provide Credit Union services.
It will be home to seven to ten full-time employees and staffed Monday-Friday during typical banking
hours as well as Saturday from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. The administrative space will be available to general
local employees and has desk, office and conference space to accommodate 16 administrative
employees daily.
(1) Demonstrated need for the proposed use.
As a Select Employer Group (SEG) chartered credit union. Our branches in the twin-cities areas exist
inside the office buildings of our partner companies. Typically, only current employees of the respective
companies can access the branch. Our new credit union branch at 650 N Douglas Dr will allow access to
our members who may no longer work with their previous employer, enjoy more convenient access and
grant access to non-employee family members who are unable to access existing branches today. The
drive-thru accessory is a key component of providing safe and convenient credit union services to our
valued members living and working in and around Golden Valley.
(2) Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan of the City.
BCU’s plans for establishing a local credit union branch with operating the existing drive thru aligns with
comprehensive plan of Golden Valley. With its core values of Inclusion, Integrity, Courage, Collaboration
and Wow, BCU is excited to grow in a community that supports a similar vision. BCU intends to remodel
the interior space to be modern and welcoming, increase green space on the property by reducing
unnecessary asphalt leading up to the drive-thru and re-establishing drive-up and walk-up credit union
services providing convenient access options and financial services and financial well-being tools to our
members in the local community.
(3) Effect upon property values in the neighboring area.
BCU’s plan to re-establish the use of the space as a credit union and re-activate the drive-thru will
increase the visual appeal of the site via updated landscaping, building, parking lot and driveway
maintenance. Furthermore, a thriving branch will help bring members and from neighboring
communities to the Golden Valley communities adding a favorable economic impact to the city.
(4) Effect of any anticipated traffic generation upon the current traffic flow and congestion in the area.
The current site was designed with its drive-thru as a primary focus with ample on-site traffic
management and driveway space eliminating the need for congestion on public roadways. Additionally,
BCU plans to add enhanced directional signage on-site to aid in the on-premises traffic flow. The main
drive-thru entrance is on Olson Memorial Highway Service Road which service road has convenient
access via a traffic control light at the intersection of Highway 102.
(5) Effect of any increases in population and density upon surrounding land uses.
No increase in population density is expected.
(6) Compliance with the City's Mixed-Income Housing Policy (if applicable to the proposed use).
Not applicable.
(7) Increase in noise levels to be caused by the proposed use.
The credit union is a quiet office environment. There are no expected impacts to ambient noise or
disturbances to the community.
(8) Any odors, dust, smoke, gas, or vibration to be caused by the proposed use.
No noise, odors, dust, smoke, gas or vibrations are expected beyond normal business traffic as a result
of operating the credit union with the accessory drive-thru.
(9) Any increase in pests, including flies, rats, or other animals or vermin in the area to be caused by
the proposed use.
The credit union business does not lend itself to any non-natural increase in pests, animals or other
vermin than what would be expected to be naturally occurring in the environment.
(10) Visual appearance of any proposed structure or use.
BCU intents to keep the general structure of the site unchanged except for the number of drive-thru
lanes. The number of lanes will be reduced from seven (7) to five (5) however, this will only serve to
widen the lanes and will not impact the structure or structural columns. Additionally, BCU plans to
update the signage in compliance with city ordinances and guidance, refresh and repaint the parking
and driveway areas as well as update and maintain the landscaping on the property.
