Falcon Heights Planning Commission Report of 3 December J974 Public Hearing ` PRESENT: George Plant; Chairman Jim Lammers Geraldine Jenkins _ Leo S.' Ohman Charles Stone Tom 'IJystrom :~ Jack ICenefick, City Attorney B_i11 Black, Council lneinber ' BY: Jim Lammers ,.~~"" I2'E,^-1 I • Z'he purpose of the public hearing was to discuss the proposed amendment to 'the Zoning Ordiriance..Number F4 which would allow - a Planned Development District in the City of Falcon Heights. Bi11 Black explained the concept of a planned development ds- trict which would allow for variations in the strict applica- tion of the Zoning Ordinance and would permit'a developer to _ propose a creative mixed Land use and negotiate the details at this proposal with the City.` It was noted that the concept of a Planned Development District would lend itsel f very. well to the undeveloped. parcel of land west of .Tatum Street and north of Larpenteur. i . Jack Kenefick presented his draft of the proposed amendment ex- plaining that the purpose of the hearing is to discuss the'con- cept of .the amendment and not the precise legal wording, The -process for creation of a planned development district is'as follows: The .developer submits datapertinent to the site to the Planning Commission.- The developer then meets and reviews his proposal with the Planning Commmission. -'.The Planning Com- mission recommends approval of tiie concept or disapproval. Tn the case of disapprova Z'the developer could take his proposal to the City Council. In case'of approval the developer is auth- orzed to prepare preliminary development documents which would be presented at a Planning Commission public hearing. The P1an- ning Commission could then approve this preliminary development: plan with or without modification and authorize the developer o prepare a final development plan for approval at a City Council public hearing. ITEM 2 • E ~'t was moved, seconded and carried that phis procedure be rec- ommended for approval with the following change. Rather than have the developer prepare final development plans for approval at a City Council public hearings' he preliminary,devel'opment plans would be approved or disapproved by the City Council at a public hearing subsequent to the,Planning Commission public hearing.' The'..: developer.. would still be required to submit.final development`plansto'the City Council. These would be reviewed by city staff for-conformance with the preliminary development plan and then approved by the'City Council at a public-meetincr, It was 31so noted under triis motion that the` ti..,e frames pre-• seated in the draft should be studied carefully and perhaps,re- vi_sed. The scale_cal.Zed for on some of .the submittals should also be reviewed.: It was moved, 'seconded and carried to indicate to the Cit~7 Council that the Planning Commission sees no objection to the subdivisions of the Julia S. Lindi ~property as presented. It was moved, econded and carried to :recommend-that future sub- division proposals for this property be handled directly by the City Council without referral to the Planning Commission.' r 1644 WEST LARPENTEUR AVENUE FALCON HEIGHTS, MINNESOTA 55113 PHONE: 644-5050 November 15, 197.

Sorva-a Attn: Mr. Dewan Barnes -City Clerk-hdministrator Re: Review of_Thatcher Property Plat City of Falcon Heights File lYO. 6044 • Dear Mr. Barnes: We have. briefly rev:i.ewed the photocopy of the praposed plat for the Thatcher property that you submitted ta.our affice. The layout as .shown :i.s incomplete for review for the following reasons: 1, No contours or elevations are shown therefore drainage cannot be determined. 2. Existing utilities are not shown. 3. Existing topography is not included. 4. Adjacent buildings should be shown. It is recommended that the above information be requested from the developer prior to considering further review of the plat. We would also offer. the following recommendations or suggestions on this plat for your cons3.deration: 1. The proposed street right-of-way width shown is only SO feet while the.Citystandard is 60 foat. 2. It is recomrended that the cul-de-sac be platted to a minimum 60' radius to provide sufficient turn around area for emergency vehicles and snow plows . 3. The 1_ot sizes are just over the minimum 10,000 sq.ft, area x'equired. We would suggest that possibly sorne other arrangement might be ad- vantageous. 4. It will be necessary to obtain a highway entrance permit from the state to construct the proposed street.

Stone Geraldine Jenkins Thomas Nystrom Robert C. Blomberg Leo S. Ohman A,J. Schwantes Leslie W. Larsen William H. Black Robert Moder Charles Hawkins Norman Ecklund BY: James Lammers ITEM ]. The concept of Planned Unit Development (PUD) as applied to the undeveloped areas west of Tatum Street and north of Larpenteur was discussed at length. Basically a PUD would allow variations in strict application of the Zoning Ordinance regarding densities, mixed use, heights, etc. These variances would be offset by certain amenities provided by a proposed development. A master PUD plan would be approved by Council, the de- tails and trade-offs being worked out between the developer and the Council. Consensus of the Commission indicated that the parcel of land in question (about 38 acres) should be planned as a whole, not in bits and pieces and that any proposal should contain Iow density housing as a buffer be- tween existing single family residences and higher density housing. The question of hi gh rise construction was raised and the members of the Commission indicated that a properly designed plan for the 38 acres may contain five story structures and be acceptable." Various questions as to storm drainage and sanitary sewer remain to be answered. It was moved, seconded and unanimously carried that the Commission rec- ommend that Council take appropriate action to adopt an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance allowing PUD's. A Planning Commission meeting was scheduled for 29 October at 7:30 to discuss the wording of such an amend- ment. ~i ~... Harold Neilson volunteered to collect information related to current trends in Zand development as pertains to the parcel in question. ITEM 2. Norm Ecklund raised the question of the possible extension of Lindig Street and it was indicated that no extension is contemplated. ITEM 3. Beginning in November regular Commission meetings will be held on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month at 7:30 pm provided there are items for discussion.

I~ioder ec: +~Tillis C.A. ~~Jar~~entien • SECTION A: Charge, Assumptions, Methods b-: > ~-_l .' x. If any of these three assumptions is invalid, and continues to be invalid, .then the physical planning process here outlined will be t t stud the validity of these as- futile . Our primary task was no o y sumptions, though we have been eager to do anything we can to en- sure their validity. We were asked to comment on them as they affect our physical planning work. Concurrent with the physical planning study, the University fs developing the functions required to ensure the validity of these assumptions: one is a central information predictive /evaluative function under the department of Budget Planning and Information Systems; another is the reorganization of Planning, Operations and Finance, including an Office of Space Programming and Management. • i q, Planning is a Process. A development plan can no longer be seen as a blueprint, to be implemented piece by piece. It requires continuous re-evaluation and refinement as time goes by and circumstances change. This changes. the emphasis of physical planning from pretty drawings to that of establishing procedures,` design criteria, .and development strategies to satisfy University goals. . 5. Planning to a General Destination. A general destination is a necessary guideline for planning, falling between the extremes of no trend prediction at all on the one hand (which might be called ad hoc planning) and detailed attempts to forecast the future on the other (which_•might be called blueprint plan- ning) . There seems to be a widening understanding within the Univer- sity of the need to develop a General Destination picture, and a good deal of significant activity is current in this regard. It will be very important t'riat this dialogue be fir^:ly established as a continuing fea- ture of University life, properly coordinated -and articulated, so that the image of the' General Destination will be constantly up-graded and refined. This is as true of the physical as the institutional and aca- demic destination images., 6. The Physical Environment matters. The goals of physical planning are to create an environment to fit the needs of its inhabitants by creating beauty, vitality, convenience, efficiency, privacy where needed, ahd an easy mixing of people and disciplines . Every effort should be made to make the campus rich and satisfying, and the Univers ty should aet as an exemplar of good planning and design. ,., ~ 12 ~} ~w ~i VILLAGE COUNCIL ,~"~ ~, ~ • WIIIIS C.

Brown ** by ~ Zoning laws have produced common Iand use patterns observ- ney able throughout -.the country. Large lot, single family zoning prevails in the "better parts of town." These areas .are ringed by smaller lot single family zoning, and the pattern moves down . the scale of desirability to apartment, commercial,-office, and manufacturing districts. Unfortunatelyt few zoning ordinances anticipate future needs of the community, nor is zoning widely used as a tool in planning and controlling the inevitable growth of a community.. Ugly com- mercial strips and poorly-constructed subdivisions are some examples of this failure. As our municipalities grow, surrounding raw land becomes ripe for development. Because of common zoning practice : this , land is invariably zoned for large lot single-family homes. But this exclusive use is out of phase with current h©nsing needs in ' most of these same communities. For example, in 1969, al- most half of all new housing units were apartm t en s. -:But we,, all know what happens when a developer seeks to ' change existing zoning in order to'satisfy thismarket. .Local > citizens become: outraged when someone mentions the possibility . of mixing apartments and public facilities in an-.area previously reserved for detached houses. And as most builders do not have the :money, innagination or energy ° to fight the zoning game, they will most often follow the letter of the zoxung law and build * Reprinted .with permission. from the October 1972 issue of New Hampshire Town and City, 84 South Street, ~', 0.

As'a result onr: cominuniti.es get the easiest projects that the buiIdera can put togeth+ar-unimaginative, unappealing and comtentionally planned subdivisions with minimum invest- meat for planningand equipping the project. A New Approach In contrast to this approach, land planners and others propose that more planning be encouraged in subdivision design. It is ° time to start shaping communities by planning: instead of zoning.. - These planners have proposed a new method called Planned Unit Development (PUD) as a means of solving these contemporary :development problems. Arguments for planned unit developments, rest on the basic premise-that better neighborhoods may result when acombin~- tion of land uses and housing types is .planned as a unit...Ad- vocates claim ,:that the general vQelfare of the public is served by better planning because.; (1) more convenient,: enjoyable and _ livable neighborhoods can be achieved ~ (2) more economically viable communities may result. ' The. uxriqueness in the PUD approach is the variety, flexibility and order in establishing: residential living patterns.. Variety is achieved. by permitting a mixture of housing types within one development such as; single family, .semi-detached, row: houses, apartments. Flexibility is achieved by. permitting. variations of the rigid subdivision regulations, such as front .yard. and. side yard setbacks, street width, etc.: And order is achieved by re- quiring advance consideration (between the .Planning Commis- sion and developer)' of all of he aspects of land development .including marketability,. conservation of land, traffic flow, utili- ties and services, and evaluation of -each project.::.for its own merit. PUD Pays Off FUD developments can have economic payoffs for both the _ commutnity and the developer. For example, in comparing two 19.6 acre subdivisions, one a standard subdivision and the PLANNED UNIT .DE4ELOP1f~NT t~~' ' ~ other a planned unit. development, it was found that the PUD rojeets development resulted in a higher tax valuation on the land and Ping an increase in school tax revenue (see table 1 'below) . ; In addi- ~v.~ . tion reduced footage'of utilities means lower maintenance costs ` to the city, if the streets have been-dedicated for public use. fihe smaller amounts of impervious paved surface results in less run- e off to strain the capability of city storm sewers. ropos It i$ Alling.

In summary, planned unit development offers a community the following: advantages of pre-planning, xeview of :market- ability and design,. coordination to Iacal master plans, high lanid utilization, potential tax revenue increase, and reduction of civic services.

This of course sets a prece:ient, i.e., a ne<<~ resident, across the alley, is presently building a much larger garage than I am proposing and has been granted a variance such as I am now requesting. 3. Also, this variance allo~~s me to preserve the ecological aesthetic of the alley in that I am able to preserve two trees which otherwise rrould have to be cut doom. 4. There is no garage immediately across fror:: the proposed entrance to my garage ( it is off to the other side ), only a recessed concrete drive~,ray, thus no probler- in entry and exit in the alley. 5.

We have enjoyed "country residential" living at our present address for 19 years and have been well ewers of the eventuality of development of the land behind us, owned by Herpes. Horever, our reaction to the proposal at the meeting on Monday night Sias RHOCK. This appears to be the reaction of other neighbors nearby. No one could believe this to be real. Another reaction expressed was that there were so few of us on the west side of lhtum that we would have a,very~~small voice in the decision to be made. In any event, we xisb to present our viewpoint here. A"large apartment complex ~,~5 stories and 320 unite would mean noise, a monster traffic problem on Larpe~iteur, a need for increased po~,ioe arxi fire protection (iilcr~asedtaxe~?) arad a change from quiet residential living to urban flavored environment. Is this what the city fathers would ,xant for -our c~omcaunity? Wd',also wonder what business or oomrcial .use wto~.d be established on the Larpenteur Ave. portion of the property that xas blank on the model shown us at the meeting? ~. We would suggest that the meeting on Monday night was well attended by .many members of the Hermes. family, some of whom do not live in Falcon Heights, who would benefit finanoially from the re-»soning. the showing of hands "for" and "against" was an indication of their presence at the meeting and not a community representative vote. Zhe decision to rezone the Hermes property should not be made now. We urge you to initiate a study of the area by a professional planner to evaluate the entrironmental impact of such a developaent upon property values and upon the life sty'~e of this community, and to determine how best to plan for the use of this property as well as the Hawkins~~ose Hill property to the north and crest of it. • wank you for your consideration..
