when asked to share her «beau tins".
It was read later at her funeral.
For atraarve lips, speak words of kindness.
For'lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure., share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through
it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk
alone.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed,
revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find
one at the end of each of your arms.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two
hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping
others.
A LETTER TO THE RESIDENTS OF P.T.S.
I'm not quite sure how to approach this so I'm going to
jump in with both feet.
Kathy put together a lovely Anniversary Party and we
had a great entertainer. Tim Belden. Tim plays the piano
beautifully. This young man was so accommodating. He
came early to tune the piano. He likes to give his best. We
asked him to wear a tuxedo because it was an Anniversary
Party. He said sure with a smile. We asked. t :ould we serve
dessert while he played so the clean up crew wouldn't have
to work to late. No problem. Tim played for nearly and hour
of wonderful music so why did I feel the need- to apologize to
him. 1 heard comments such as. he's playing so loud we
can't talk. Am I missing something? I thought we hired
entertainers for our listening pleasure. No wonder Tim playe
louder than normal. it was so noisy.
It seems to me two years ago we hired a harpist for our
Anniversary Party. He was marvelous. One of the residents
stood up during his performance and told people to "shut
up." Some thought that was very rude. Perhaps it was. but
not nearly as rude as what was done to Tim and Rubin.
If -it's more important for you to talk during the
entertainment. please leave the room. Some of us just want
to listen and enjoy the music.
Thank you.

DA7E: October 18. 2M
TO: Anne Harlbmt, Community
FROM: A Jana. HRA Specialistad Am'Ei9ZHusing Progeam Manager
SUBJECT:. 2001 livable Communities S uvey Results
BACKGROUND
To eompl)r witb the Livable Communities Act of 1995. the Metropolitan Council conducts an
amoral l8 survey. Every city within *A Metropolitan, Council's juatadiedan is requested to
complese this anrvey and the results are. used to rank the annul housing pahr mimeo of euh
r comrmmit; Tba MdmPObtan COUNd uses thea soores m *A evaluation and ranking of any
etisemdooary Boding request or application. Ibis memo Provides a comparative analysis
between P$rmouuh and font ndoboring communities as well addrasiog what we we as !taws m
the way the survey is mucarad.
DISCUSSION
The 2001 Livable Communities Survey was racgody completed and the Qty of Plymouth
received a score of 64 out of 100 posuble poiats. PbWmth was rooted 3e out of 183 cities
included is the survey. The Cities of Edm Prairie. Maple Grove, Mumetmilm and Now Hope
were 4 of the 31 cities that seared bigbrr than Pbuoutb.
1. AthktsddAft and DhevoWesdoe
Questions 1,3 - These questions relate to bissorW information wbich cities have no
control over. As tike attadod compstadve cbwt indicates Pbmmnh's score for these
gerestioos was 11, which is very similarto blionelooka. Maple Grove and Edo
Prairie. However, New Hope's score was 20 out of a possible 22, which indicates
bow diBermt they are as a community and &a di8ermce in housing stock and values.
Quradan 4 - This quesdm ad&und whys percent of oat amts was added that are
af%rdable dam 1996. Because &a dais requested is over a period of 6 years, we do
J not bave acoas to the figura the Mei Council used. ft should be noted that this.
question pen h= commamtta that are akpe imcing rapid growth because itis
asking far a pacamtage. For example Plyraemumth added 86 units in 2001 that wen
considered affordable and Now Hope added 3. However, New Hope received 10 out
Of 10 PoirA while Pbsaouub only received 3. Since New Hope is a developed
suburb ad Plymouth is still developing it is not possible for New Hope to have had
r"N
min development ova the past 6 years. We think drat Pbywath actually did betty
in this yea be== we eaeata I more affordable units to address the and. regardless
of how we actually moored.
Question S - This question idea to "Special Needs" bousiog. In this era Plymouth
seared higher than the rest.of the 4 cities in the comparison.. Because the actual
survay we completed and the Met Council's tanking criteria do not match up it is not
minable why we soured higlua in this caategorly.
L I.oal Inida fives to Facilitate Affordable Workforce Housing Development or
Preservation
Question 6 - This question asked cities to Iden* fiscal tools and initiatives they
Wine. In this ata Pbymorfo received tie maximumn points, as did 3 of the 4
comparison cities.
Qumdm 7 - This question asks what "a of initiatives has the city done reBaedieu2

Senior Housing
TRemis a ngod for more senior housing in Plymouth. Plymouth Towne Square was the first
W- -out complex in the City specifically for seniors. The Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment
Authority opened Plymouth Towne Square in the fall of 1994. The complex reached full occupancy
in 1995. It provides housing for 118 residents, of which 66 percent lived in the City of Plymouth
before moving into the building. Another 30 percent moved to Plymouth to be closer to family. As
of Mardi. 2002, this complex had a waiting list of 74 applixents, which is a clear indication of the
reed for more housing of this type in Plymouth.
Spa" Neste Housing
Special ands housing encompasses a diverse set of populations: those who are. older and frail, those
with mental and/or physical disabilities, those with mental illness or chemical health issues, and
those who are in used of mmporary or transitional housing due to mxgor changes or losses in their
lives. For many years, Hammer Residences has operated a successful housing and service program
for mentally and phy==Uy challenged adults in small group bates and aparwwn scattered
through the community. They house 60 diems at 13 locations in the City. Demand. for this
program is growing and Hammer has indicated that they would lite to develop moral in the
City.
Housing designed to be accemble for disabled persons is a used within Plymouth. The City and
Plyi outh HRA have actively promoted and supported more accessible lousing m the community.
In January 2000, the HRA provided financial assistance for the construction of two accessible and
affordable single family homes
Subeld eed Housing Unft
By the end of 2001, there were 458 units of rental boning in Plymouth that were publicly
subsidized. However. 153 of these units will be subject to the possibility of subsidy contract
cancellations by the owners during the nett IS years.
In addition to the increase in the number of attbrdable Rousing units, the HRA's HUD Section 8
rem sa ustaoce program has increased the pool of rental units accessible to low-munnee clients with
Section 8 vouchers. By the and of 2001, them were 302 households in private rental bousing in
Plymouth maeivmg Section 8 assistance and S13 households were on the waiting list for vouchers.
The NRA does not expect to open this waiting list for new applicants for at least another 3 years.
However, the waiting list is a good indicator that there is strong unmet used for subsidized housing
in de community.
Housing Stock.
The number of housing units built in Plymouth began rising in the 1970s and increased dramatically
in the 1980x. As of December 2001. approximately 90 percent of Plymouth's housing stock was
less than 30 years old, and 60 percent was less that 20 years old. Only 3 percent of the City's
housing stock was built prior to 1950. However, during the 20-year period covered by this plan.
roughly 41 percent of the City's housing stock will be more than 40 years old. Consequently,
during this period, the City should be putting the necessary programs and regulations in place to
ensure on-going maintenance of the housing stock which is one of the City's major resources.
Housing Age and Affardebift
Plymoat6'R ~ housing is also its :most affordable. Of the housing built before 1980.28 percent
was affe1,-,U} , .:n 1999, Compared to 15 percent of housing built in the 1.9MM and 12 pecan in the
1990L Tim r%.sage housing unit assisted under the City's housing rehabiliation program was built
in 1949 and occupied by a household with an average income of S 10,696.
As the Rousing stock ages, the need for maintenance and renovation will increase. The City may
120011 to expand its efforts to provide bousing assistance to owners of affordable rental and
horded units to ensure older units remain in good or '-limn.

1. PROPOSED ACTION
That the Council receive this report s ommarixing the results of the Mandl 19, 2002 Plymouth
Housing Forum, and add it to the list of fugue study session topica to be scheduled.
L SUMMARY OFROUSING FORUM
On March 19,20M the City of Plymouth sponsored a Housing Forum at Plymoutb Creek
Center. Approximately 100 people, me uding rmsidu ts, lend owners, buildout developers,
board and cormandan members, elected officials and staff were in attendance. After a
wehomo by Nkor Tierney, they boardpraentatioos from Plyarouth Housing MMMW Jim
Burnes, BATC (Bm'ldets Assoeiaaoa of the Twin Cities) representative Rick Packer and.
MICAH (Metropolitan 1medWth Council on Affordable Housing) representatives Mine Orion
and Submit Brooks. A summary of the presentations is attached, including aha pru fur
materials from each of the speakers, All attendees were provided with a pwAm of resource
materials on affordable housing.
After the presmWiona, attendees were divided into 7 small groups for further d w asian. Each
groin was asked to recommend the two mor important things that the City of Plymouth coo do
to promote more affordable housing. The reportsborn the small groups yielded a list of 13
suggested priorities, as well es sur extensive list of comments made during their discussion
3. CObUCU S FROM FORUM
Staff has compiled and careguriaed the comments from the small group discussions. We have
noted when the comments relate to current Plymouth policies at housing efforts, or to ides
currently included in the Comprehensive Plan's Housing Implementation Plan Strategies,
lhr ftjbr AffeedaW Basshgp - The aced for more financial resources for affordable housing
was recognized in many of the comments. Marc use of TIF was suggested. The City has
lobbied the State and others Por more resources, and has used Tax Increment Financing (f B)
and Housing Revenue Bonds locally to fund atibrdabk lousing Prejecta.
FeeWCam O ftrid im - Reducing regulations and !area as a way to bring down lousins cost was
suggested by the speaker from BATC as well as many of those present While many of the
regulations cited (building codes, etc.) are not under the City's control, Plymouth has identified
the need to, study this issue and will do so as staff rasources permit
Cost o d grLered— Many of the comments recognized that the coat and supply of land is
contributing to the increasing cost of new construction. Some of the ideas suggested were:
Purchasing land for bousmg developmem in order to control the type end price of new
housing built there.
Using a land trust and other restrictions on land to maintain longer-term affordability of
housing
Identifying publicly owned land that could be converted frau open space or another use for
construction of sandable housing
Identift privately held lard that can be developed
Increasing the developable land supply by expanding the urban service area
The largest harder to the first two suggestion is available funding. With the price of residential
land surpassing $100,000 per acre, a large capital investment would be necessary to make a
significant Ind purchase.
becrs1V send Let Site:•- Using density bonuses to encourage affotdable housing was actggeuW by ...'
many Participants. In the last few years, Plymouth has made sign ficarnt changes in its
Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinances to promote higher densities. Most of the nes
developments occurring in the areas added to the.MUSA in 2000 are at densities significantly
higher than in the rest of the City. The Zoning Ordinance (lot sizes, setbacks, etc.) does not
appear to be a harder and allows flexibility through the PUD zoning district However. the City
Council did decide, atter significant deliberation, not to use density bonuses as incentive for
affordable housing. Instead. the Plan allows higher density by night Increasing densities
beyond what the Plan currently provides may not be practical for all area (because of impacts
on infiastructre capacity, for example)
OtM Smuthe endEenins Pidkks- Thee were comments in the small groups and the MICAH
Presentation that the City has not adequately enf aced its Comprehensive Plam and that new
regulations (such as "inehudonary housing") should be considered. Other suggestions include
allowing "carriage houses" (Accessory Dwelling Units, or ADU's) and looking at infill on
existing lots. ADU regulations are currently under discussion. Thee have been some recent
requests to subdivide larger lots in existing neighborhoods.
DmFS I dentes and Ne oods— Speaker Rick Padcer and participants commented an the
effed that expectations and regulations concerning the size of new housing units have an
housing costs. Plymouth's own regulatiom unlike some other locales, do not currently specify
a dwelling unit am or amenities (such as garages) beyond what is required by the building code,
so it is unlikely that local regulatory changes could influence the housing market to build .1
smaller units. Mixed-use development and "smart growth ' wee also suggested as desurble
goals. Modular design was suggested as a way to decrease construction costs.
EdwcsSo W PtrM 1 jonandow— Thera were many comments suggesting that the City should use
education to inform the public of the nand for and benefits to the community of a85rdable
housing, and thereby increase support and decrease opposition. <:v,
Wwt*g w M DeadWev— Suggestions for wonting with developers included Wring the lead with
developers, soliciting proposals for specific pieces of land. This may be difficult to do without
control of the land. Some participants asked what the City was doing to "entice" developers to
come here: That were also comments that the City should exercise leverage on developers to
force" affordability WOW want to build is Plymouth. Thare are legal limitations to this
app each. The Council has supported efferta to use the City's discretionary authority on land
use decisions to e'reourage changes in projects to help man housing goals. The economics of
specific projects have made aebieving affordable prices impossible in some developments. even
with such efforts. EncenMiag developers to build aDbrdable units, andjorrdag them to do a%
may not be compatible approaches.
Wording wibM Empkim— Participants suggested that businesses be asited to provide some
support for affordable housing, as people who work in Plymouth can af%rd to live here. Some
fbh businesses could offer land, or incentives to employees; another participant commented *art
weshould look to &a busam community for ideas and promotions, rather than economic
support. The Comprehensive Plan identified the need to study housing and employment
v% -a aomhips, but the study has not yet begun.
WWMf W wkh Orha Leads elGoaawwent— Comments reflected a desire for the City to actively
work with the other levels of government with a stake in affordable boning to change
regulations that discourage affordable bousing and to inwasse available faoding. PlymouWs
legislative agenda has always included lobbying for additional financial support for affordable
housing. The City has not taken a general position fhvoring'inchusionary housing" legislation
or other changes to the planning and zoning enabling statutes. Insteadwe have reviewed
specific proposals as they beve been presented. working through the League of Cities. AMM
and other groups.
l end/ Orltm Cmuents` May of the comments listed were difficult to categorize or related to
more than one of the categories above. One theme seemed to be a general comment that the
City needs to be more creative aced proactive. Another theme was connections among boudng,
transportation and jobs. There is also recognition that bousing is a complex problem with many
facets. There were eo cernt expressed that taxes are already high enough, and that they did not
wish to see the environment impacted doe to compromises for at%dable bowing development.
Some pa eipants commented on the need to preserve &a existing affordable bossing stock.
0. IDEAS FOR FURTHER DISCUSSION
The comments at the forum suggest a number of diffamt ideas that the City could pursue. in
addition to the implementation strategies already identified by the Compirdiensive Plan. We
have noted several of these ideas below. The Council may wish to discuss these, and others, at a
study session.
Campelgw Jlar Fundre— The City could make it a legislative priority to campaign for
increased state fuaxling for housing programs. and help lead the growing movement to allocate
one percent of the state budget to housing.
Fee Redacdows- The City could consider fee reductions as an incentive for affordable -1
housing, when fee reductions can leverage other funding.
Lewd Purchase- The City or its HRA could explore the feasibility of p wJ=ng land. to
control one of the scarcest resources needed to create afibrdable bwimg. Funding and
competing with the private sector for land would be the moor barrios. A land purchase could
be combined with some of the other techniques suggested (i.e. modular constmetion) to enhance
initial and lard affordability.
Zouft ReWew•- The City could study whether changing some requncincntz (neeb as hart
widths, setbacis.or sizes in the RSF-1 zoning district) could create opportunities for additional
housing without negative impacts on the character of exiling neighborhoods.
Mbred We DDeadapmme— The City could review the Comprdensive Plan to determine
whether there are unrecognized, market -viable opportunities to designate land for mixed-use
development.
Ihmsd Friew* Dendepmeme - The City could also do moe to encourage trantsit-friendly
design in new developments and consider transit opportunities during the development .review
PIOCUL
Bw*a lxvet arewF- The Twin West Chamber of Commerce has recently begun woesft on
developing prim;iples for supporting affordable housing naded for economic devd*ff=L
Twin West and its Plymouth Business Council could serve as the vehicle for the City to involve
the business community in affordable housing issues.
If the City Council determines that these or other ideas generated at the forum should be
pursue4 tbey will nad to be weighed in context with the other, ongoing, implementation
strategies now underway and the nesoun es available.
S. RECOMMENDATION
We recommend that the Council receive this report summarizing the results of. the Manch 19,

Panel asks cities vo tear down,

By Stere Brandt

Two )cars after telling met-

housing n task force of ZO may-
ors sm'd Wednesday that cost -

houses need wider use.
That was part of a sheaf of
recommendations the group
released that focus on produc-
ing less-expensive housing by
reducing rcgolatorybarders.
The task fume. of metro -area
mayors, said new methods of
building affordable houses
often take too long to be accept.

struction workers. It urged
workshops and incentives to

To miderscore that. the

The group cited cost-cutti

costs and the Greater Metro-
politan Housing Corporation's
efforts to standardize designs
and construction techniques.
But die last group has pro.
ducedpoly one house using the
techni•lues. and it didn't save
money over conventional tech-
niques, according to its presi-
dent Carolyn Olson. She said
there are hopes of achieving
savings in the future.
The group repeated its 21100
recommendation that suburbs
work to eliminate zoning re-
quirements that unnecessarily
drive up home prices. For ex-
ample, Chaska approved 30 -
foot lots and carriage houses to
promote Iuwer prices fn the

The report also emphasized

the creation of land trusts.
They buy, the lots and give

buy the houses an tlde lots. But
when the (rouse is said. the

cr. Chasid a planb to use this for
some Clover Field houses. but
there are only a handful of land
trusts in Minnesota.
The mayors also called on
the private sector to standard-
ize second mortgages so that
they can be more widely used
to assist homeowners who can
make ordly a small down pay

The need for seniors housing
grows as baby boomers age
By Donna Kimura
The graying of America is placing new pressure or. public
housing authorities (THAs) to meet the ii%.v s of senior.
t tits across the tuition provide appmeinutely 700.000
elderly residents. 62 years and older, with atintdable rental hour.
ing, It, just a one-year period. from 1997 to 19!+3, the elderly in
public housing increased by an estimates: 30.000• nearly a 6%
jump. its a slim of whore lies ahead.
The older population in
America will incnage dramatically as
baby boomer hit retirement age. By
2030• one out of every, five
Americans will be a senior. ThatS
about 70 million elderly persons,
more than twice what it was in
2000.
Barely half of the public hous-
ings senior -herded households live
in buildings desiped for their use,
said hanLy Bednar, project director
at the nonprofit Housing Research
Foundation. About 47% of the
elder•Iv households are scattered
throughout conventional fancily
developments. according to the
foundations recent report "Public
Housl.•cg for Seniors: Past, Present
and Future.'
The study reports that about
tum -thirds of elderly public, housing
residers live in bmidirngs construct-
ed at lest 30 years ago. As a result•
the existing backing of modern" -
tion costs Lt xtinated by the Department of Housing and Urban
Deve,lopment (HUD) at a uiuopping $4.8 billion. or 511,603 per
emit. In addition• it estimates an accrual of mWernizatinn costs in
public housing for seniors of $1.076 per unit each year.
The estimates: regarding accrued modernization nerds are
irr.ly regarded as inadequate and underestimate the actual costs
involved in modernizing public housing for seniors. HJDL- esti-
mates do not take into account the obsolescence of the housing
as well as the need to bring senior.- public housing up to th, stan-
dards of other seniors housing, such as Sec. 202 urns, said the
study. As a result, the actual costs of accrued mtderri:ation needs
may approach $2,Oi10 per unit each year.
The aced goes be, and nccom-
modatmg a growing number of
elderly citizens.
Seniors in public housing are
more likely than other seniors to be
disabled or heady, according to the
foundation. They may need pre-
pared meals as well as assistance
with bathing, mcdie-taon and other
tasks of daily living.
1 see all public housing
authorities, in five to 10 years• lav-
ing at least a component of assisted
living within theit public housing
facilities; said Conchy Brett, chief
executive officer of MIA Consulting
Group. Her firm is currently work-
ing with 30 housi; g nuthoritirs
across the nation in creating assist-
ed -living facilities (Al -Fs).
Alts, which provide residents
with n combination of housing and
pemrinlized suppon services. allow
residents to age in place. In many
cuss, the resident is not ready to
move from a house or apartment
into a nursing home, which often rims fou: times as much as an
ALF.

nations leaders in providing public housing for seniors• has two
