AGENDA ITEM 1C
STAFF ORIGINATOR Al Rolek
MEETING DATE March 8, 2004
TOPIC Consider Resolution 04-36 Abating Special Assessments on Parcel
No. 30- 31 -22 -21 -0001
Simple Majority (3/5)
VOTE REQUIRED
BACKGROUND
In 1997, the City of Lino Lakes levied special assessments in the amount of $586,602.29 on
parcel number 30- 31 -22 -21 -0001, owned by Mr. George Reiling, for various improvements
benefiting his property. Mr. Reiling appealed the amount of the special assessment to U.S.
District Court. In 2001 the U.S. District Court reduced the amount of the assessment to
$180,000.00. The City, in compliance with the court order, abated all remaining special
assessment payments from the year 2001 forward. However, through an oversight, the special
assessment installment for the year 2000 in the amount of $64,405.77, which should have also
been abated, remains outstanding against the parcel.
The property is set to go tax forfeit due to the outstanding assessment against the property. To
avoid tax forfeiture of the parcel, the City Council needs to approve a resolution to abate the
outstanding special assessment.
This item is presented on the consent agenda as a housekeeping item. Approval of the resolution
is necessary to come into compliance with the court order.
It is the recommendation of staff that the City Council approve Resolution No. 04-36 abating the
outstanding special assessment installment for 2000 in the amount of $64,405.77.
OPTIONS
1. Approve Resolution 04-36.

Agenda Item — 4A
Staff Originator: Ann J. Blair, City Clerk
Date: March 8, 2004
Topic: First Reading: Ordinance No. 05 -04 Amending the
City Code, Section 700, the Liquor Code, by
Adding Section Relating to Sale of Strong Beer in
Conjunction with Wine and 3.2% Beer Sales
Votes Required: Simple Majority (3/5)
Background
Section 700 of the City Code relating to Liquor and Beer Licensing was last updated in
2002. I am reviewing legislative changes and anticipate bringing forward a
recommendation for a few updates in this area. At present, however, I have only one
change which I recommend the Council consider.
At your regular meeting of February 9, 2004, you approved a wine and 3.2 % beer license
for Mansetti's Pizza. Minn. Stat. 340A.404, subd. 5 provides that a City may allow the
sale of strong beer at an on -sale establishment that already has a wine and a 3.2% beer
license as follows: (relevant excerpt)
Subd. 5. Wine licenses.
(b) The governing body of a municipality may by ordinance
authorize a holder of an on -sale wine license issued pursuant to
paragraph (a) who is also licensed to sell 3. 2' percent malt
liquors at on -sale pursuant to section 340A.411, and whose gross
receipts are at least 60 percent attributable to the sale of
food, to sell intoxicating malt liquors at on -sale without an
additional license.
The wine/beer license at Mansetti's is the only one of its type in the city at this time.
However, I anticipate that in the future, there may be similar establishments that wish to
sell only wine and both types of beer. The only way for an establishment to do so at
present is to have an on -sale license, which allows sales of all types of liquor.
You will notice that the wording of the Statute states that a city "may by ordinance"
(emphasis mine) allow this. Bill Hawkins and I discussed this and he gave the opinion
that our ordinance, as written, does not allow for this. He also stated that the language
provided here would be sufficient to make this change, should the Council wish to do so.

1. Motion to Approve 1St Reading.
2. Motion to Deny 1st Reading.

Consideration of Resolution No. 04 -31
Comprehensive Plan Amendment
Consideration of Resolution No. 04 -32
Preliminary Plat for Marshan Estates
Comprehensive Plan Amendment 4/5 vote
Preliminary Plat — 3/5 vote
The proposed project is located adjacent to Marshan Lane. The 4.94 -acre parcel is
physically divided by the existing Marshan Lane. However, the parcel, including
Marshan Lane, is all one property.
Mr. Clyde Rehbein, the applicant, originally applied, in fall of 2001, for a Minor
Subdivision to split -off the portion of the property lying north of Marshan Lane into a
separate lot. However, the proposed split required the extension of sanitary sewer and
water. Subsequently, the applicant submitted a petition for the installation of sewer and
water facilities, signed by four of the nine existing property owners along Marshan Lane.
In October of 2001, the City Council ordered preparation of a feasibility study to extend
sanitary sewer and water utilities along Marshan Lane. In July 2002, the City Council
ordered a public hearing to consider the proposed improvements. Following the
meeting, the City received a petition against the proposed assessment, as provided for
in the City Charter, and no further action was taken.
Since that time, City staff has held several neighborhood meetings to discuss the
proposed improvements and address cost issues. Since there continued to be interest
by some of the residents, in addition to the applicant, for sewer and water the City
authorized preparation of plans and specifications in July of 2003 for the utility
improvements. The intent was to provide a more accurate and up to date estimate of
the project costs and allow the city to address, more accurately, the possible financing
scenarios. Additionally, staff became aware of possible on -site septic system issues
developing along the street and believed that it would be beneficial for the city, from a
public health standpoint, to pursue the extension of utilities.
During this lengthy process the City's Comprehensive Plan was approved by
Metropolitan Council and the City adopted a new subdivision and zoning ordinance as
well as a growth management ordinance. Staff have since noted that while the
City Council
Marshan Estates
March 8, 2004
• property is zoned R -1, Single Family Residential, lies within a Stage One Growth Area
(1998 - 2010), and within the existing Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA), the
property is guided low density unsewered residential. Additionally, due to changes in
the subdivision ordinance all subdivisions of sewered residential lots must be platted.
•
•
Therefore, Mr. Rehbein, is now requesting a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to
change the land use designation from Low Density, Unsewered to Low Density,
Sewered. Additionally, the applicant is requesting Preliminary Plat approval for a 5 -lot
subdivision (4 new lots) which includes the property located on both the north and south
sides of Marshan Lane.
This review is based on the following submittals:
1. General Location Map
2. Boundary and topographic Survey of Marshan Estates, prepared by Glenn Rehbein
Companies, and dated December 18, 2003.
3. Preliminary Plat of Marshan Estates, prepared by Glenn Rehbein Companies, dated

Zoning
The project site is currently zoned R -1, Single Family Residential. The R -1 District is
intended for development of single family detached homes on lots served with public
sewer and water (Sec. 6, subd. 1.A).
The project is located within the designated shoreland district of Marshan Lake. The
shoreland district extends 1000 feet from the Ordinary High Water Level (OHWL) of
• public waters.
•
Comprehensive Plan Amendment:
The 2001 Comprehensive Plan guides this area for low density unsewered residential
and mixed use land uses. The project area lies within the Stage 1 Growth Area (1998-
2010) and within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). The applicant is
requesting a change in the land designation from unsewered residential to sewered
residential for that part of the property lying south of the north line of Marshan Lane
(Lots 1 -4, Block 2). Based on the possible extension of public utilities to service all
properties along Marshan Lane, staff is recommending that the amendment include
adjacent Low Density Unsewered Residential property adjacent to Marshan Lane. The
existing Mixed Use designations would remain unchanged.
Comprehensive Plan
The 2001 Comprehensive Plan guides this area for low density unsewered residential,
and mixed use land uses. The project area lies within the Stage 1 Growth Area (1998-
2010) and within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA).

Zoning
The project site is currently zoned R -1, Single Family Residential. The R -1 District is
intended for development of single family detached homes on lots served with public
sewer and water (Sec. 6, subd. 1.A).
The project is located within the designated shoreland district of Marshan Lake. The
shoreland district extends 1000 feet from the Ordinary High Water Level (OHWL) of
• public waters.
•
Comprehensive Plan Amendment:
The 2001 Comprehensive Plan guides this area for low density unsewered residential
and mixed use land uses. The project area lies within the Stage 1 Growth Area (1998-
2010) and within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). The applicant is
requesting a change in the land designation from unsewered residential to sewered
residential for that part of the property lying south of the north line of Marshan Lane
(Lots 1 -4, Block 2). Based on the possible extension of public utilities to service all
properties along Marshan Lane, staff is recommending that the amendment include
adjacent Low Density Unsewered Residential property adjacent to Marshan Lane. The
existing Mixed Use designations would remain unchanged.
Comprehensive Plan
The 2001 Comprehensive Plan guides this area for low density unsewered residential,
and mixed use land uses. The project area lies within the Stage 1 Growth Area (1998-
2010) and within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA).
The following table provides an overall summary of the Land Use change based on the
total acreage of the proposed development and existing residential uses guided as low
density unsewered residential:

Traffic
Lake Drive (CSAH 23) is designated as an "A" minor arterial roadway, with Marshan
Lane designated as a local street. The proposed land use change would allow for the
potential of five new single family residences on the street. Any new single family
development within the amendment area will have minimal impact to the system.
Wastewater
Approval of the amendment will allow for the connection of existing properties to the
municipal sanitary sewer system. An existing City trunk sanitary sewer is located at the
intersection of Town Center Parkway and Lake Drive (east side) and is proposed to be
extended to service the area. The amendment area lies within Sewer Service District 2,
which has the capacity to carry the anticipated increase in flows.
Water
Approval of the amendment will allow for the connection of existing properties to the
municipal water system. An existing City trunk water main is located at the intersection
of Town Center Parkway and Lake Drive (east side) and is proposed to be extended to
service the area. The existing system is capable of servicing the amendment area.
Preliminary Plat:
Lot Size. The minimum lot size of the R -1 District is 10,800 square feet of buildable
land: All lots exceed this provision, ranging from .47 acres to 1.11 acres. The lot sizes
are generally consistent with the existing Tots in the neighborhood.
Lot Depth. The minimum lot depth is 135 feet. All lots meet or exceed these provisions.
Lot Width. The minimum lot width is 80 feet for standard lots and 100 feet for corner
Tots. All lots meet or exceed these standards.
Outlots. There are six outlots included in the proposed subdivision. During the
preparation of the plan and discussion with the abutting property owners, it became
apparent that there were conflicts between the legal descriptions, monumentation, and
•
•

City Council

occupation lines. The proposed Outlots are intended to correct these irregularities. The
parcels are proposed to be deeded over to the abutting property owners. It was also
noted in a neighborhood meeting that the east line of Lot 1, Block 1 needed to be
shifted westerly to match the existing monumentation and occupation lines. This
adjustment has been made in the revised preliminary plat, dated March 1, 2004. By
doing this, the proposed boundary of the plat will establish the framework for deed
corrections to individual properties north of Marshan Lane.
Setbacks. The required setbacks established in the R -1 District are the greater of the
following: 40 feet (Collector or Arterial Street), 30 feet (Local Street), 30 feet (front yard),
30 feet (rear yard), and ten feet (side yard - principal building). The lots have adequate
dimensions to meet required setbacks. Note: the existing attached garage on Lot 4,
Block 1 encroaches approximately 10 feet into the street setback area. This is a
preexisting condition created when the road right -of -way for Marshan Court was deeded
to the City in 1995. Both the house on Lot 4, Block 2 and the house located
immediately to the east were constructed prior to this dedication.
Street and Block Design. Marshan Lane and Marshan Court are existing streets, and
no changes are proposed. The plat does provide dedicated right -of -way for Marshan
Lane and Marshan Court. The plat also provides 20 feet of additional right -of -way for
Lake Drive in conformance with City and County requirements for arterial streets.
Access control dedicated to Anoka County is also shown on the plat along Lake Drive.
Grading and Drainage. A grading plan has been submitted and is subject to the review
and approval of the City Engineer. His comments are attached. The development as
proposed is to be custom graded on a lot -by -lot basis. Individual lot purchasers and /or
builders will be required to submit a site - specific grading plan as part of the building
application.
Utilities. Utility plans are being prepared by the City Engineer, TKDA. Both sewer and
water are proposed to be extended from the Lake Drive/Town Center Parkway
intersection.
Drainage and Utility Easements. Drainage and Utility easements are proposed being
five feet in width at adjoining lot lines, and 10 feet in width at adjoining street lines and
rear lot lines, as required. A 50 -foot drainage and utility easement adjacent to County
Ditch Number 10 is also provided.
Parkland Dedication. Staff is recommending 100% cash payment in lieu of parkland
dedication. However, staff would also recommend dedication of a 10 -foot wide trail
easement adjacent to Lake Drive, which would overlay the required 10 -foot drainage
and utility easement. City Park and Trail plans identify a proposed future trail along
Lake Drive. Additionally, provision of this easement allows for flexibility with future Lake
Drive improvements.
City Council
Marshan Estates
March 8, 2004
• Floodplain. Portions of the site lie within a Flood Plain Zone A, which follows County
Ditch Number 10. RCWD has established the flood elevation at 886.0. The City's
Floodplain Management Ordinance requires that principal structures be located no
lower than one foot above the regulatory flood protection elevation. The City's
Subdivision Ordinance requires that proposed basements be four (4) feet above the
water table (normal water level) and two (2) feet above the design flood levels of
ponding areas. All proposed buildings are outside the Flood Hazard Area.
•
Shoreland Requirements. The proposed development lies within the Shoreland Overlay
District of Marshan Lake, which is classified as a Natural Environment Lake.
Impervious surface coverage of lots within the Shoreland District of a Natural
Environment Lake cannot exceed 30% for residential development. Upon build -out of
the proposed residential lots the impervious surface coverage is estimated to be
approximately 20 %.
Due to the size of the lots and the minimal impervious surface coverage, stormwater
control and water quality treatment is not required provided Best Management Practices
(BMP) are incorporated to the maximum extent possible. To insure adequate infiltration
and treatment of stormwater runoff prior to entering County Ditch number Ten, staff is
recommending a 20 -foot conservation easement be provided along the southern
boundary of Lots 1 -4. This easement lies within the proposed 50 -foot drainage and
utility easement.
City has received a response from Tom Hovey, MN /DNR Area Hydrologist, in which he
indicates that the project is consistent with shoreland guidelines.
Tree Preservation. Since the site is so heavily wooded, the City's environmentalist has
noted that the existing trees should be pruned and /or thinned to conform to the National
Fire Wise Standards. A tree preservation plan will be required in conjunction with each
individual building application.
Lot 1, Block 1 Development. Lot one, Block one is identified as a potential future
business site on the preliminary plat. The lot is guided mixed use and was included in
the original Calthorpe Town Center Master Plan. However, due to access limitations to
Town Center Parkway, it may not be possible to develop in this way without further
expansion into the existing residential area to the east. Staff has determined that the
property is of sufficient size to be subdivided into two residential lots if the
commercial /mixed use option is not feasible.
Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD). The developer has made application to RCWD
for approval of a Land Development Plan. RCWD states that because the proposed
impervious area of the project is less than one acre in size, they will not require water
quality treatment, noting most drainage will infiltrate in the pervious rear lot areas. The
project was reviewed at the January 28th meeting, with a CAPROC (Conditional
410 Approval Pending Receipt Of Changes) being issued. RCWD notes that Best
Management Practices (BMPs) should be incorporated to the maximum extent possible.

Anoka County. The Anoka County Highway Department has completed a review of the
proposed project. The proposed Lake Drive right of way and access control dedication
are sufficient. No improvements to Lake Drive are required for this development.
Growth Management:
Growth Management, Units/Year: The comprehensive plan and the growth management
policy establish a specific number of dwelling units of residential growth for stage one
(prior to year 2010). The goal is 147 per year. The City Council has the flexibility to
exceed the limit by 20% (29 units) in a year without amending the comprehensive plan.
The following table shows the status of the staging plans for final platting new
residential units, including the proposed Marshan Estates.

As shown in the table, the goals for both 2003 and 2004 have been exceeded. The
addition of four lots for Marshan Estates in 2004 would put the total at 27 over the
target, or 18.4% over. This would fall within the allowable 20% range.
ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD
The City's Environmental Board reviewed the application on January 28, 2004, and
recommended approval. Their comments are attached and, where applicable, have
been incorporated into this report.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD
The Planning and Zoning Board reviewed the request at its February 11, 2004 meeting.
The board recommended approval of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment and the
Preliminary Plat with conditions. The board's conditions of approval are incorporated
into the staff recommendation.

Routing:
The City of Lino Lakes has received plans providing for a Preliminary Plat and improvements to the
properties bordering Marshan Lane. Marshan Lane is essentially a short dead end street, extending easterly
from Lake Drive, just south of Town Center Parkway. The street is just under 800 feet in length and serves
existing residential properties. The proposed plans provide for re- platting the roadway and properties in
order to provide for the construction of additional single family residential units. The following has been
received for review:
1. Boundary and Topographic Survey of Marshan Estates, prepared by Glenn Rehbein and Associates,
and dated December 18, 2003.
2 Preliminary Plat of Marshan Estates, prepared by Glenn Rehbein and Associates, dated January 6,
2004, and received by the City of Lino Lakes January 7, 2004.
3. Preliminary Grading, Drainage, and Erosion Control Plan, Marshan Lane, prepared by Glenn
Rehbein and Associates, dated December 18, 2003, revised January . 6, 2004, and received by the City
of Lino lakes January 7, 2004.
Preliminary Grading Plan Notes and Details, Marshan Lane, prepared by Glenn Rehbein and
Associates, dated December 17, 2003, and received by the City of Lino lakes January 7, 2004.
Sanitary sewer and water are currently not available to the existing properties on Marshan Lane. As part of
the proposed improvements, preliminary plans providing for the extension of sewer and water to Marshan
Lane were initiated in the fall of 2003 by the City of Lino Lakes. This review; therefore, considers the
proposed plat and improvements, along with the extension of utilities under a separate plan.
Preliminary Plat
Additional right-of-way (20 feet) is shown dedicated along Lake Drive (Lot 1, Block 1). Along with
10 feet of platted drainage and utility easement, this may be adequate as further explained in this
memorandum under the sewer and water comments. However, the plat shall be subject to the review
and approval of Anoka County. In addition to the added property needed for the utilities, it is likely
that Anoka County will also require dedication for eventual future roadway improvements, including
widening.

The Preliminary Plat does show drainage and utility easements around the platted properties per City
of Lino Lakes standards. This includes 5 -foot easements along all side property lines and 10 foot
easements across the front and rear of all properties. A drainage easement is also provided adjacent
to. County Ditch 10 on the south boundary of the plat.
Sanitary Sewer and Water
1. Plans for extending sanitary sewer and water to Marshan Lane have been initiated by the City and are
therefore not included as part of the plans submitted by the Developer. However, comments are
being provided herein to address specific issues related to the Developer's submittal.
2. The closest available utilities are 10 -inch diameter water and 12 -inch diameter sanitary sewer mains
at Town Center Parkway, a distance of less than 400 feet north of Marshan Lane. It is proposed to
connect directly to the existing facilities by extending mains southwesterly along the east side of
Lake Drive to Marshan Lane, and further extending mains easterly to the end of Marshan Lane.
3 For the watermain, it is proposed to extend 12 -inch diameter pipe along Lake Drive in accordance
with the City's Comprehensive Plan. The 12 -inch main would then terminate at Marshan Lane, a
12 -inch stub to the south to be provided for a future connection, and 8 -inch main then extended
easterly to the end of Marshan Lane. Individual services would then be provided for the individual
parcels along Marshan Lane (for both existing and proposed single family units).
For the sanitary sewer, it is proposed to extend PVC sewer pipe to Marshan Lane in a similar fashion.
The size of the sewer main has not yet been firmly determined, and can be further explained as
follows:
• The depth of the sanitary sewer at Town Center Parkway is approximately 19 feet deep.
However, the ground elevation drops as much as 11 feet from Town Center Parkway to the end of
Marshan Lane, thus raising concerns regarding the depth/cover and invert elevation of the main
by the time it reaches the termination point (a total distance of approximately 1100 feet). For the
majority of properties on Marshan Lane (including-the three proposed new units on the south side
of Marshan Lane), gravity flow from the homes to the sewer does,not appear to be a concern.
However, the three existing units along the south and east sides of Marshan Court are situated at
lower elevations, and the lowest floors of these three properties cannot be served sanitary sewer
by gravity. Preliminary design of the sanitary sewer places the invert of the sewer at an elevation
of 890.5 (plus or minus) at its termination at Marshan Court and the end of Marshan Lane. The
• low floor elevations of the three properties are as follows:
580 Marshan Lane - 888.97
590 Marshan Lane - 888.78
600 Marshan Lane - 889.01
Therefore, an ejector or lift would be required to service the lowest floors of these three
properties.
Marshan Estates Page 3 February 4, 2004
City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota
An 8 -inch diameter sewer is adequate in size for the proposed improvements and area served.
However, upsizing of the pipe to further flatten grades and gain additional depth can be done.
However, ejectors would still be necessary for the properties as mentioned above.
A sewer stub for eventually extending the sewer further south beyond Marshan Lane may not be
necessary for the following reasons:
• In accordance with the City's Comprehensive Sewer Plan, it is not anticipated that a significant
amount of additional area would require collection from this extension. In addition, the current
Marshan Lake Industrial Park (Panattonni), located just to the south of Marshan Lane, has
extended sewer to the east side of Lake Drive for future collection of those properties.
• An extension of sanitary sewer further south would require crossing County Ditch No. 10, which
is immediately south of Marshan Lane. According to the survey provided, the bottom of the ditch
is 5 feet below the sewer invert at Town Center Parkway. If sewer were to be extended to the
south of County Ditch 10, a small lift station would be needed, according to the survey
information provided.
The alignment and location of the water and sewer along Lake Drive has not yet been firmly
determined, pending completion of the utility design and review by Anoka County. However, it
appears additional right -of -way and/or utility easements will be necessary to construct the utilities,
and will be required by the County. The existing right -of -way currently extends 40 feet from the
center of Lake Drive. It is recommended at this time that at least 30 feet be provided. Per the plans
provided, 20 feet of additional right -of -way is provided along with the 10 foot standard drainage and
utility easement. This may be adequate. However, the actual required amount of dedication will be
subject to the review of Anoka County, including their review of the Preliminary Plat and proposed
Utility Plans. A permit from the County will also be required for any work within the County right-
of -way.
The sanitary sewer and services must be placed a minimum distance from existing wells per
Minnesota Department of Health requirements.
Grading Plan
1 The proposed site development results in grading (disturbing of property) of over 1.0 acre. The
development shall therefore be subject to the requirements of NPDES (National Pollution Discharge
Elimination System) as most recently adopted by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA)
and the City of Lino Lakes. A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) will also be required.
Because the site is less than 23 ,acres, a review and approval of the Rice Creek Watershed - District
(RCWD) will not be required.
Marshan Estates Page 4 February 4, 2004
City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota
As part of the NPDES and SWPPP requirements, at least some measure of stormwater treatment must
be provided, subject to the review and approval of the MPCA. For the portion of property disturbed
as shown on the Grading Plan, it is recommended that the grading be adjusted to provide for
detention or infiltration as may be required by the MPCA, prior to discharging to the County ditch.
. Silt fence and erosion control measures are provided on the Plans.
No soil or geotechnical report is provided. Any imported material for the site shall be subject to the
approval of the City Engineer. In addition, floor elevations for the proposed housing units must meet
the requirements of the City of Lino Lakes as follows: The lowest building opening must be a
minimum of 1 -foot higher than detention basin emergency overflow elevations. Basement floor
elevations must be at least 4 -feet above the normal water elevation and 2 -feet above the design flood
level (for consideration of County Ditch 10 and any infiltration basins that may be required). The
low floor elevation shall also be subject to the level of subsurface groundwater elevations.

From Marty Asieson
Date: January 30, 2004
Re: Recommendations of the January 28, 2004 Environmental Board Meeting
The Environmental Board met on January 28th, 2004 and made the following
recommendations:
Marshan Estates
Land Cover
The developer needs to submit a detailed tree inventory and follow the subdivision
ordinance for Tree preservation plans. In addition, the developer should
remove /prune any remaining trees to conform to National Fire Wise Standards
(Attachment 1). Pre- existing conditions should include Lino Lakes MLCCS.
Soils
There should be no importing or exporting of soils without City approval The
developer should include a plan for soil compaction prevention.
Surface Water
Would like RCWD input on impact mitigation. The Environmental Board would like to
see a minimum buffer to include at least the designated drainage easement area,
and should include a distance of 50 feet from the ditch. ` The City native seed
specification should be used to replant in this buffer area Signage should be used in
this easement area The signage should say "no cutting, or removal of vegetation,
no :fill or debris." Developer should submit the required NPDES control measures
and best management practices to be used with particular emphasis on the ditch.
Ensure the developer is complying with the City Shoreland Management Overlay
Ordinance in not exceeding 30% impervious. Downspouts from roofs should be
directed to pervious yard areas:

AGENDA ITEM 7 C
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Jeff Smyser
C. C. MEETING DATE: February 11, 2004
TOPIC: Resolution No. 04 -02
Allocation of MUSA Reserve Acres and Preliminary Plat
Justin's Preserve, White Pine Road
VOTE: 3/5
BACKGROUND
Carpenter Homes has requested approval of a preliminary plat for Justin's Preserve. Under the
current subdivision ordinance, the creation of new lots on city sanitary sewer requires a plat
rather than a minor subdivision. The project involves splitting an existing fourteen -acre parcel.
The plat includes a neighboring parcel. A portion of the land will be added to that neighbor's lot.
This application highlights an unusual situation that should be corrected. The existing house on
the large property, 171 White Pine Rd., is connected to city sanitary sewer and water. However,
it is not within the MUSA. It should have been included in MUSA when it connected to the
utilities. This also is the case with the existing 90' x 170' lot at 173 White Pine Rd (which is
being included in the plat). Neither of these properties is in the MUSA although both are
connected to utilities. This should be resolved now by allocating MUSA reserve. The area being
platted includes 4.4 acres of upland.
To accommodate the proposal, the following approvals are necessary:
1. Allocation of 3.7 acres of MUSA reserve
2. Preliminary plat
The P & Z Board reviewed a plat in December and recommended approval. The applicant then
reconfigured the plat and resubmitted it. In January, the P & Z recommended approval of the
second plat, which is before the City Council now.
ANALYSIS
The following is a summary of the of the proposal:
Gross Site Area 14.3 acres
Upland Area 4.4 (approximation)
Total Lots 3
Gross Density 0.21 units /acre
Net Density 0.68 units /acre

Growth Management:
MUSA Reserve: The comprehensive plan and the growth management policy establish a
specific number of MUSA acres for residential growth for stage one (prior to year 2010). The
MUSA reserve was calculated based on a specified amount of growth in specified areas. That
estimate did not anticipate growth resulting from creating new lots on existing sewered property.
The Growth Management policy designates 36 acres of MUSA reserve for residential
development each year. The City Council has the flexibility to exceed the limit by 20% (7.2
acres) in a year without amending the comprehensive plan. The residential MUSA reserve for
2003 has been allocated. There are 3.7 acres remaining for 2004. The table at the end of this
report lists the residential MUSA reserve status.
The site is guided and zoned for sewered residential uses, and it is in a Stage 1 (pre -2010) area.
The Justin's Preserve site includes approximately 4.4 acres of upland. Both existing homes are
connected to the municipal sanitary sewer and water. However, neither is in the MUSA.
The City allocates MUSA reserve based on the upland area of a site. The Justin's Preserve plat
upland area is as follows:
Though the upland of 4.4 acres is greater than the 3.7 acres remaining for 2004, the property is
such that there cannot be additional lots created. The extra upland (0.7± acre) is isolated behind

house sites and wetlands, with no access or road frontage to it. The 3.7 acres of MUSA reserve
will be sufficient to include the house sites.
Alternatively, the City could use the allowable flexibility to exceed the annual goal of 36 acres
by up to 20 %: in this case, 0.7 acre. This is not necessary, since the 3.7 acres is adequate.
Growth Management, Units/Year: The comprehensive plan and the growth management
policy establish a specific number of dwelling units of residential growth for stage one (prior to
year 2010). The goal is 147 per year. The City Council has the flexibility to exceed the limit by
20% (29 units) in a year without amending the comprehensive plan.
The goal for 2004 has been exceeded. However, one more lot for 2004 would be a minor
increase and still fall within the allowable 20% range. The table at the end of this report shows
the status of the staging plans for final platting new residential units.
The option is to deny the application because it exceeds the 147 limit. This would prevent the
property owner from selling a lot until 2005.
Preliminary Plat
Lots: The minimum lot size in the R -1 zone is 10, 800 sf of upland. As listed above, all lots
meet this minimum. (The minimum 10,800 sf is 0.25 acre.)
Shoreland: Baldwin Lake is a "recreational development" lake under the shoreland overlay
ordinance. Minimum lot size is 20,000 sf (0.46 acre) with an 80' lot width. The proposed lots
exceed these. Structures on sewered lots must be set back 75' from the ordinary high water level
of 883.1. The proposed house pad meets this requirement.
Streets, Access: No new streets are needed. A new driveway will be needed for Lot 1.
The driveways must be five feet from a property line.
Parks: The subdivision ordinance includes park dedication requirements. Park
dedication is $1665 per residential unit, less any land dedication. There is no land dedication
needed, so the park dedication will be $1665.
Anoka County owns property that abuts the road on the west side of Rohavic Oaks 2nd Addition.
The Anoka County trail map shows a future trail connecting to White Pine Road west of the site
of the proposed plat. The proposed new house lot will not affect that future trail.
Utilities: The existing houses are connected to city water and sanitary sewer. The new
house will connect as well.
Grading and Stormwater Management: Wetlands cover the northern portion of the site.
Drainage and utility easements will cover the wetlands. Easements also will be platted along all
the property lines that do not run into wetlands. The Rice Creek Watershed District has issued a
•
Justin's Preserve
page 4
conditional approval of the first plat application, which the P & Z Board saw in December. The
new plat, dated January 16, 2004, should be submitted to RCWD for re- examination.
Power Line Easement: There is an existing power line running along the southern edge of the
property. There was a blanket easement over the entire property. The applicant worked with the
power company to confine that easement. This will need confirmation for final platting.
ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD
The Environmental Board reviewed this application on January 28. Recommendations are
attached.
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
Approval of the project should include the following conditions:
1. Lot 1 shall connect to city sanitary sewer and water.
2. Issues discussed in the City Engineer review memo must be addressed to his satisfaction.
3. Park dedication of $1,665 shall be paid.
4. Prior to approval of the final plat by City Council, the applicant shall submit proof that the
powerline easement has been confined.
5. The new plat dated January 16, 2004, must obtain approval by the Rice Creek Watershed
District prior to final plat approval by the City Council.
OPTIONS.
1. Approve Resolution 04 -02, which includes approval of both the allocation of 3.7 acres of
2004 MUSA reserve and the preliminary plat, with conditions.
2. Return to staff with direction.

CITY OF LINO LAKES
RESOLUTION NO. 04-02
RESOLUTION APPROVING THE
ALLOCATION OF 3.7 ACRES OF MUSA RESERVE AND
A PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR JUSTIN'S PRESERVE
WHEREAS, Carpenter Homes submitted an application for a preliminary plat, and;
WHEREAS, the Lino Lakes City Council makes the following findings:
Findings
1. The site includes 14+ acres on the south side of Baldwin Lake on White Pine Road. It
includes current addresses 171 White Pine Rd. and 173 White Pine Rd., and its current PIDs
are 31 31 22 24 0005 and 31 31 22 24 0004, respectively.
2. The existing houses on the site are connected to municipal sanitary sewer and water but the
site is not within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA).
3. The City's growth management policy, described in Ordinance No. 01 -03, establishes a goal
for MUSA reserve allocation for each year, with some flexibility. There are 3.7 acres of
MUSA reserve remaining for year 2004 without exceeding this goal.
4. The City's growth management policy, described in Ordinance No. 01 -03, establishes a goal
for residential growth each year, with some flexibility. While this goal has been exceeded,
the approval of one new lot in the Justin's Preserve application would be within the
discretionary flexibility limits provided by the policy.
5. The Planning & Zoning Board held a public hearing on the application on February 11, 2004.

Comm. No. 12976 -002
Routing:
A review memorandum for this development was previously prepared and dated December 4, 2003. Since
that time, additional documents have been received as follows:
1 Existing Conditions and Preliminary Plat by E.G. Rud and Sons, Inc., dated January 16, 2004, and
received by the City of Lino Lakes January 17, 2004
2 Preliminary Grading, Drainage, Erosion Control, and. Utility Plan by Plowe Engineering, Inc., dated
January 16, 2004, and received by the City of Lino Lakes January 17, 2004.
The property is located along the south side of Baldwin Lake adjacent to White Pine Road, about 900 feet
west of Laurere Avenue. The proposed plat and development essentially splits an existing 14.2 acre parcel
of property into three parcels, Lot 1 (3.6 acres), Lot 2 (8.4 acres), and Lot 3 (2.3 acres). The previous
submittal provided for splitting the parcel into two lots of approximately 2.2 acres and 11.8 acres. The total
area of the property is slightly larger (0.3) from the previous submittal, as an existing house along White
Pine Road has been added to the property. It is proposed that existing single family homes will remain on
Lots 2 and 3 while a new single family home will be constructed on Lot 1.
The following review comments are provided:
The proposed subdivision will require the review and approval of the Rice Creek Watershed District.
(RCWD). Rules indicate that any subdivision of property over 5 acres in size requires a permit from.
RCWD.
A First Floor Elevation (Nr'E) of 890.0 for the new home is proposed. A low floor lowest opening
elevation of 989.6 is provided on the Plan, and appears to be in error (should be 889.6 ?) and must be
revised accordingly.. The 100 -year High Water Elevation of Baldwin Lake is identified as 885.30
according to the survey provided. The City's minimum building elevation floor elevation (including
basement), must be the greatest of the following: 2 feet above the Design Flood Elevation, 4 feet
above the water table, or 1 foot higher than the emergency overflow elevation. The elevations
provided, therefore, would meet requirements based on Baldwin Lake flood elevations. However, the
groundwater elevation is not known, and the lowest floor elevation would need to be 4 feet above the
water table as required_ In addition, the edge of the existing wetland bordering the future home site is
• An Employee Owned Company Promoting Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity

City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota
at an elevation of roughly 887 -888 feet according to the survey, and an Ordinary Water Elevation
(OHWL) of 887.59 has been determined by the Applicant's Engineer. However, the extent of the
wetland's bounce or potential. High Water Elevation (HWL) is not known or shown on the Plan.
Therefore, further documentation must be provided to show that the floor and building elevations
proposed will meet City regulations in relation to the wetland.
The Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining an NPDES Permit and Storm Water Pollution
Prevention Plan in accordance with State of Minnesota Law. This will also require providing to the
City a copy of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), required as part of the NPDES
submittal.. If the actual area of property to be disturbed is less than 1 -acre, an NPDES permit will not
be required. However, the Applicant would be required to demonstrate on the Plan accordingly.
Also, because of the close proximity to Baldwin Lake, and the existing wetland immediately adjacent
to the proposed home site, sedimentation and erosion control measures must be fully implemented
and enforced per City of Lino Lakes and RCWD requirements.
Drainage and utility easements are provided adjacent to property lines and over wetland areas in
accordance with City requirements. These easements shall also be provided on the Final Plat.
Additional notes and details shall be included with the Plans providing for adherence to the standards
and requirements of the City of Lino Lakes. This shall include standard details for watermain and
sanitary sewer services and appurtenances, and notes referring to utility construction requirements of
the City of Lino Lakes and Utility Specifications of the City Engineer's Association of Minnesota
(CEAM) as applicable.
The proposed subdivision and construction must adhere to Floodplain and Shoreline Management
requirements of the City of Lino Lakes as applicable.
A heavy dark line is shown extending across the existing wetland on Lot 1 between the proposed new
house and the south property line. It is unknown or not noted what this line is.
Memo

To: Michael Grochala
From Marty Asleson
Date: January 30, 2004
Re: Recommendations of the January 28, 2004 Environmental Board Meeting
The Environmental Board met on January 28th, 2004 and made the following
recommendations:
Marshan Estates
Land Cover
The developer needs to submit a detailed tree inventory and follow the subdivision
ordinance for Tree preservation plans. In addition, the developer should
remove /prune any remaining trees to conform to National Fire Wise Standards
(Attachment 1). Pre- existing conditions should include Lino Lakes MLCCS.
Soils
There should be no importing or exporting of soils without City approval. The
developer should include a plan for soil compaction prevention.
Surface Water
Would like RCWD input on impact mitigation. The Environmental Board would like to
see a minimum buffer to include at least the designated drainage easement area,
and should include a distance of 50 feet from the ditch. The City native seed
specification should be used to replant in this buffer area. Signage should be used in
this easement are a:. The signage should say "no cutting, or-removal of vegetation,
no fill or debris." Developer should submit the required NPDES control measures
and .best management practices to be used with particular emphasis on the ditch.
Ensure the developer is complying with the City Shoreland - Management Overlay
Ordinance in not exceeding. 30% impervious. Downspouts from roofs.. should be
directed-to pervious yard areas.

to Planned Unit Development;
Resolution No. 04 -33 - Development Stage
Plan /Preliminary Plat Approval;
Legacy at Woods Edge
ACTION REQUIRED: Simple Majority
BACKGROUND
In 1998 the City of Lino Lakes, following award of a Metropolitan Council Livable
Communities Planning Grant, retained the services of the Calthorpe Associates to
design a Master Plan for the City's Town Center District. The purpose of the Lino Lakes
"Town Center" development is to provide for the orderly and integrated development of
a high- quality Town Center which includes a mix of shops, offices, entertainment,
housing, recreation, community facilities, and open space. The mix of uses is designed
to implement the principles of the Livable Communities Act and the City's
Comprehensive Plan by creating a Town Center for the community and providing more
diverse, life -cycle housing— including affordable and rental housing— within an active
and interesting pedestrian- oriented community. The development is a cooperative effort
that will leverage public and private investment to create sustainable value, ecologically,
economically and culturally.
The City has concentrated its efforts to implement this plan on the and located adjacent
to the Civic Complex, of which, approximately 6.7 acres has been reserved for the
Chain of Lakes YMCA.
PROJECT LOCATION
The 48.84 acre property is located in the southeast quadrant of the Interstate 35 /Lake
Drive Intersection. It is bounded on the west by Lake Drive, on the north by I -35W, on
the east by Rice Creek Regional Park, and on the south by the Civic Complex and the
Marshan Lane residential area. The Civic Complex, an additional 10.01 acres, is
included in the plat.
City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
PROJECT SUMMARY
The Hartford Group, Inc., based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota is requesting approvals to
allow for the development of the property consistent with the Calthorpe Master Plan and
Town Center Design Standards. In total, the Legacy at Woods Edge project is proposed .
to allow up to 348,000 square feet of office, retail, and service uses. In addition,
approximately 450 multi - family residential units are proposed for the development. The
residential units provide a variety of housing options and include townhomes, work force
or income - qualifying rental housing, senior housing and for -sale condominiums.
The Hartford Group as obtained purchase agreements with both the City owned land as
well as the northern 29 acres of the site, which is privately owned.

Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW)
Minnesota Rules Chapter 4410.4300, subpart 32 requires the preparation of an EAW for
mixed residential and industrial - commercial projects of this size for 3rd or 4th class cities.
Subsequently an EAW was prepared. The EAW was reviewed by the City's
Environmental Board on November 6, 2003, and approved by the City Council for
distribution and comment on November 10, 2003. The required 30 -day public comment
period ended on December 24, 2003. The Environmental Board recommended approval
of the Record of Decision and a finding of no significant impact at its January 21, 2004
meeting. A determination of No Significant Impact was made by the City Council on
February 9, 2004.
Existing Land Uses
The southerly end of the site is developed with the Lino Lakes City Hall complex that
includes the City Hall offices, police station, and an early childhood learning center.
Two existing businesses are located along the west side of the site. The Lino Lakes
State Bank and Fairview Clinic have frontage along Lake Drive (CSAH 23), but receive
access on Village Drive, which is a backage road connected to Town Center Parkway.
The northern portion of the site is currently occupied by Arctic Sandblasting Company
and one single - family residence and is bound by I -35W on the north, the Rice Creek
Chain of Lakes Regional Park on the east and CSAH 23 on the west. This privately held
business has been in operation since 1975. The commercial business consists of
several structures, service roads, and includes a large semi - tractor trailer storage area.
Access to the business is along a service road that intersects with Lake Drive north of
Fairview Clinic near the I -35W access ramp. Both the business and existing single -
family residence will be removed as part of the development project.
Adjacent Land Uses
The southern property line for the proposed development is bordered by the Rice Creek
Chain of Lakes Regional Park and a small residential development consisting of seven
single- family dwellings. The eastern property line is bordered by the Rice Creek Chain
of Lakes Regional Park. Land uses on the west side of Lake Drive include an Amoco
service station, limited residential development, and undeveloped property that is
currently zoned for commercial development. The northern side of the project area is
separated from existing commercial and industrial uses by I -35W.
Comprehensive Plan
The City's 2001 Comprehensive Plan guides the property for Mixed Use Development.
The plan specifically states the following:
"The southeast quadrant of the I -35W /Lake Drive interchange represents the Lino Lakes
City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
Village area. The Village is intended to integrate a mixture of commercial, medium and
high density residential and public land uses in an attractive and cohesive design." The
plan is intended to emphasize the following objectives
1. A 65 -acre complex of buildings in a controlled setting.
2. An integrated mix of uses that responds to residents' needs.
3. A gathering place that creates a sense of community, civic identity and pride.
4. A place that defines the unique character of the community.
5. An economic development initiative to increase the value of the commercial tax
base.
6. A distinctive, consistent architectural style that promotes high quality,
aesthetically pleasing commercial buildings.
The plan provides for a residential density of between 10 and 24 units per acre within
mixed use districts.
The proposed mix of residential and commercial, civic, and recreational uses are
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the Village Master Plan.
Zoning
The property is currently zoned LB, Limited Business District. The City's Zoning
Ordinance provides for mixed -use development through the use of the Planned .Unit
Development process.
Additionally, The eastern and southern portions of the site are located within the
designated shoreland zoning districts for George Watch Lake and Marshan Lake. The
Shoreland District extends 1,000 feet from the Ordinary High Water Level (OHWL) of
public waters.
Growth Management Ordinance
The City adopted Ordinance No. 01 -03, creating a Growth Management Policy in
January of 2003. Section 2, Subdivision 16 of the Ordinance specifically exempts the
"Village" area from the provisions of the policy.
Design & Development Standards
The Design and Development Standards are proposed as the regulating zoning
standards for the Legacy at Woods Edge development. The standards establish the
use, site layout, site amenity and architectural control guidelines for the Planned Unit
Development.
The Development Standards were prepared by Calthorpe Associates as part of the
"Village" Master Plan process completed in 2000. Staff has revised the standards to
reflect the proposed Legacy at Woods Edge project. The majority of changes relate
City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
specifically to Chapter 4 Residential District Standards, due to the elimination of single
family residences within this area. Additionally, Chapter 3.8 Project Identity & Signage,
and Chapter 5, Public Improvement Standards have been removed. Signage
requirements will need to be completed and approved before final plan /final plat
approval and incorporated into the standards. The public improvement section was
removed because the City is designing all public improvements.
Master Site Plan
The Master Site Plan and its associated Site Development Summary provides the
framework from which development will need to conform to. The plan referred to as the
"Regulating Plan" within the development standards specifies the essential physical
features for the development including:
Streets
A minimum framework of streets is required as presented in the master plan. Town
Center Parkway, including the traffic circle, Village Drive and the roads surrounding the
"Community Green" have been established with specific design standards. The
proposed street layout is generally consistent with the Calthorpe Master Plan.
Build -to Lines
Build -to Lines define locations where buildings must be built within a certain distance of
the public right -of -way. Bringing building fronts close to the edge of streets enhances
the continuity, attractiveness and intimacy of pedestrian spaces.
The build -to line defines a location at which 1) a certain minimum percentage of the
block length must contain buildings, and 2) those buildings must be built within a
maximum distance from the right -of -way.
As represented by the building layout on the Master Plan, build -to lines extend along
Town Center Parkway, Village Drive, and around the Community Green. A minimum of
50 to 70 percent of the block must have buildings, parks, or plazas adjacent to the build-
to lines. In commercial and mixed use areas buildings may be setback no greater than
5 feet from the right -of -way line. In residential districts, buildings adjacent to build to
lines can be setback no further than 15 feet.
The proposed development conforms to these requirements.
Required Building Entries
The Regulating Plan identifies the location where major building entries must be
provided to create important pedestrian and visual connections. These entries are
located at important corners or intersections. An important entry provided for in the
proposed plan is located mid block on both sides of the community green. This location
City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
is the primary access point to upper story residential units and provides an important
link between the parking areas and the community green.
Gateways
Entrances to the Woods Edge development should be marked by distinctive features
that announce your arrival at the Town Center. These locations are indicated on the
Regulating Plan.
Site Development Summary
The associated development summary provides the connection between the site layout
and the intended use and size of individual buildings. Buildings 6, 7, 10, 16 and 17
represent the mixed commercial /residential structures.
Open Space
Three types of Open Spaces are proposed within the Woods Edge development.
These spaces provide recreation and relaxation space and functions as natural edges
to the development. In addition to on -site open space, the site provides unparalleled
opportunities for recreation due to its proximity to the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes
Regional Park, located immediately to the east and south. The project will provide
pedestrian /bicycle trail links into the regional park system.
Accessible Commons
The residential district must provide a minimum acreage of Accessible Commons equal
to 10 percent of the District land area. Located within the center of the townhome area
the commons is a neighborhood- oriented open space intended to provide limited
recreation and gathering areas. The specific size, location and improvement of the
commons area will be reviewed in conjunction with any proposed residential
development in this area
City Parks & Plazas
An approximately one acre community green is provided for in the heart of the
development. This space provides for a public gathering area adjacent to the retail,
office, higher intensity uses within the Mixed Use District.
Natural Resource Area
Natural Resource Areas protect valuable natural features while allowing pedestrian
access along trails. The majority of the Open Space within the Woods Edge project
falls within this category.
As part of the site development, approximately 9 acres of the site, comprising
approximately 6.5 acres of wetland, will be preserved in its natural state. The wetland
City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
area, located along the northeastern boundary of the site is part of an 87 acre wetland
complex that separates the site from George Watch Lake. Additionally, changes in site
design have allowed for the opportunity to preserve approximately 1.6 acres of
woodlands in the southeastern portion of the project in conjunction with the future
YMCA development.
Master Landscaping
A revised master landscaping plan has been submitted that defines tree quantities,
types and locations, typical landscaping details and proposed ground covers. The plan
calls for a mixture of shade and ornamental trees, shrubs and perennial plantings
throughout the development. The plan does provide for landscaped "connected
walkways" that link the parking areas with building entrances most notably between
buildings 16 and 17 leading to the future YMCA.
Appropriate locations should be identified for native plantings such as along the existing
wetland in the northeastern portion of the site.
The environmental board has provided a recommendation for proposed tree types as
part of their review (attached).
Streetscapinq Plan
SEH has prepared a preliminary streetscaping plan in accordance with the Calthorpe
Design Standards. Streetscaping is one of the most essential elements to provide a
welcoming pedestrian friendly environment. The proposed elements include
landscaped medians, boulevard trees, decorative lighting and decorative pavers
throughout the development.
Also included in the plan is the preliminary design for the community green that will
combine both seasonal gardens, a central green space and plaza area. Street furniture
and other amenities will be incorporated as the project develops. Further articulation of
the design will take place during the preparation of the feasibility study as well as during
the preparation of plans and specifications. Proposed features will need to be
evaluated based on cost, timing, as well maintainability of the improvements.
Traffic /Circulation
Access to the proposed development is provided via the Lake Drive/Town Center
Parkway intersection. As shown on the Master Site Plan, Town Center Parkway will
need to be widened to a four lane section and then taper to a two lane section north of
the Civic Complex. A traffic circle is proposed within in the center of the development to
promote the efficient flow of traffic at this main intersection. One -way streets are
proposed circling the village green.
While the City's Subdivision Ordinance establishes minimum Level Of Service (LOS)
requirements for roadways outside of proposed developments, the requirements do not

Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
apply to the I -35W /Lake Drive and I -35E /Main Street interchanges. However, the
ordinance does require examination of development impacts and a plan to resolve
identified deficiencies.
The City's engineering consultant SEH has completed a traffic analysis for the site to
evaluate traffic impacts both internally and externally of the site. A summary of the traffic
analysis prepared by SEH, dated February 11, 2004 is attached. As part of the study
AM and. PM Peak Hour trip generation rates were developed for the proposed
development as well as the existing facilities (City Hall complex, Fairview Clinic, and
Lino Lakes State Bank). Trips to /from each building have been assigned to the street
system within the development. This provided a tabulation of traffic volumes at various
locations within the development, as well as at the intersection of Town Center Parkway
and Lake Drive (CSAH 23). According to this analysis, the Peak Hour traffic volume is
1,155 trips, which occurs from 4:30 -5:30 p.m.
Based on the traffic analysis, a concept transportation improvement plan was developed
for the Town Center Parkway and Lake Drive intersection. On Town Center Parkway,
the plan includes three outbound lanes to separate left turn, through, and right turning
traffic and also includes two inbound lanes. Signalization of this intersection would also
be necessary to maintain acceptable levels of service.
According to the 2020 Traffic Volume Forecast in the Lino Lakes Transportation Plan,
traffic volumes on Lake Drive are anticipated to increase to over 17,000 trips per day.
Regardless of the proposed development, improvements to Lake Drive are expected in
the future. However, to accommodate the full development of the Legacy at Woods
Edge Development, several additional improvements to Lake Drive will need to be
made in the short term. The concept transportation plan has proposed the construction
of two southbound left turn lanes between the intersection of Town Center Parkway and
the 1 -35W bridge. Furthermore, traffic signals at Town Center Parkway and both ramps
to 1 -35W are anticipated. To signalize the south ramp intersection, the existing off ramp
and on ramp intersections, which are now separated, need to be aligned to a single
intersection, which would require the reconstruction of approximately 400 -feet of the on
ramp.
A meeting was held on January 29, 2004 with the Mn /DOT Area Engineer and Mn /DOT
traffic and freeway modeling staff to review the analysis. Mn /DOT indicated that no
further analysis was required. However, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)
has requested documentation that demonstrates traffic will not back up onto mainline I
35W.
As detailed in the attached traffic operations analysis the I -35W /Lake Drive interchange
area will perform at acceptable levels of service (LOS D or higher) through 2010 with
the proposed improvements. The analysis also demonstrates that queue lengths (the
distance of vehicle stacking at intersections) will not back onto the I -35W mainline.
City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
The City will be resubmitting the preliminary plat to Mn /DOT for further review. The
resubmittal is needed to identify the area of right -of -way within the plat that is needed to
accommodate the ramp realignment. Additionally, the City will still need to present the
traffic simulation models to Anoka County and Met Council. This will be scheduled in
the near future.
The proposed Lake Drive improvements will require the acquisition of right -of -way along
Lake Drive. The proposed improvements and extent of right -of -way acquisition will be
evaluated further as part of the feasibility study for the project. Staff is also continuing
to work with Anoka County and Mn /DOT regarding possible cost participation.
Parking.
The development, standards establish parking requirements through the use of shared
parking standards. By recognizing that peak parking demand occurs at different times
for different land uses, shared parking facilities help minimize the amount of land and
expense devoted to parking lots. Additionally, on- street parking has be included in the
development plan were possible.
A parking analysis was completed to determine if the site plan has provided adequate
parking space for the proposed level of development. The analysis segmented the site
into four zones to compare the availability of parking spaces for commercial and office
uses to the potential demand within each zone. Based on the analysis, Block 1 was
short approximately 15 spaces. However, staff is evaluating the availability of the Civic
Complex parking lot due to its close proximity to this area. Otherwise, the site has
adequately addressed the parking demands within each zone for commercial/office
uses. Residential parking is proposed to be provided entirely underground throughout
the mixed use areas of the development. However there appears to be a 10 stall short
fall in Block 3.
The parking analysis will have to be revisited on a case by case basis with future
development on the site to insure the needs of different land uses are satisfied.
Adjustments of allowable square footages and /or residential units may be required
during individual site and building plan reviews.
Architectural Standards
Another key component of the project is the establishment of architectural standards.
Architectural Standards for the proposed development fall into four Categories:
1. Facade Transparency. Facade Transparency guidelines help strengthen the
relationship between buildings and the street and increase public safety by
placing "eyes" and activity on the street.
Materials and Methods of Construction. Buildings shall support regional
traditions and maintain a level of craft in the process of construction. Wood,
masonry, and stone are appropriate building materials.
City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
3. Building Scale and Definition. These guidelines are intended to create buildings
with a human scale, making the development more pedestrian - friendly and a
pleasant place to walk.
Energy Conservation and Climatic Response. The effects of the Minnesota
climate can be mitigated through intelligent building design configuration and
landscape treatments.
The requirements contained within these categories will be incorporated into the
building design throughout the development.
Master Grading and Drainage and Erosion Control Plan
The City's engineering consultant SEH, Inc., has prepared a preliminary Grading,
Drainage and Erosion Control Plana Runoff from the site currently drains to the south
and east and ultimately discharges to Marshan Lake and George Watch Lake.
The development proposes to construct a drainage system within all the street
improvements and parking areas to convey runoff to proposed ponding areas and
infiltration cells (green space or underground storage chambers). Subsurface chamber
technology takes advantage of the soil's inherent filtration and renovation capabilities to
store and treat storm water runoff while providing the flexibility to plan for additional
buildings and green space. To maximize pollutant removal efficiencies, the water quality
control structures will be designed and constructed according to NURP, the City of Lino
Lakes, and Rice Creek Watershed District standards.
Storm water rate control and treatment will occur prior to any storm water being
discharged to receiving water bodies. Therefore, water quality in the receiving
waterbodies will not be adversely impacted. Treated storm water will either be naturally
infiltrated into the groundwater or will be discharged to existing wetland basins located
on and /or adjacent to the site. Water from these wetlands eventually will enter George
Watch Lake, Marshan Lake, and the ` remainder or the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes
system.
Master Utility Plan
The development is proposed to be serviced with public sanitary sewer and water
utilities. The sanitary sewer service will be provided by the existing trunk sanitary sewer
main that runs within both Town Center Parkway and Village Drive. The sanitary sewer
laterals will be extended through the site.
Water service will be provided by the existing trunk water main that runs within both
Town Center Parkway and Village Drive. The water laterals will be extended through
the site. A trunk line will be extended northerly across I -35W to provide a planned
improvement to the City's water system.

City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
Master Lighting Plan
SEH has prepared a preliminary lighting plan for the public streets consistent with the
Calthorpe Design Standards. Decorative lighting will be used throughout the
development. Private lighting for internal parking areas will be reviewed in conjunction
with proposed development. In accordance with the design standards lighting shall not
exceed .4 foot candles at the property line and must contain a 90 degree cutoff angle.
A lighting plan prepared by a qualified lighting consultant shall be submitted for review
and approval by the City.
Development, Ownership and Management
The Hartford Group will be the Legacy at Woods Edge master developer, and will
contract with sub - developers to develop phases of the project. Sub - developers may be
affiliated Hartford entities. The rental housing is proposed to be developed and owned
by affiliates of the Hartford Group. The townhome and commercial locations are
proposed to be developed distinctly by Hartford affiliates or separate sub - developers.
The sub - developers for Legacy at Woods Edge have not been finalized at this time.
Residences are proposed to be market -rate, with up to a twenty percent affordable
component included. The Hartford Group's market studies will determine initial pricing,
with flexibility to adjust to market changes. The Hartford may retain ownership,
development, and management, or contract for development and management, or sell
parcels.
The rental /owner occupied housing mix and affordability percentages shall be subject to
and incorporated the Development/PUD agreement between Hartford and the City.
Market Analysis
The proposed project represents the maximum intensity of development, due to
physical and transportation constraints, that can be accommodated on the site. The
Hartford Group has commissioned a study, which is nearing completion. The results of
the study shall be incorporated into an economic feasibility study that will be required for
review by the City prior to Final Plan /Plat approval.
Shoreland Requirements
The . Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park boundary separates the project area
from the OHWL of George Watch Lake and Marshan Lake by approximately 800 -feet
and 250 -feet, respectively. Given the distance separation and forested nature of the
regional park property, no visual impact to the public water bodies is anticipated.
Additionally, there will be no disturbance of Shore Impact Zones.
Both George Watch Lake and Marshan Lake are classified as Natural Environment
Lakes. Impervious surface coverage of lots within the Shoreland District of a Natural
11
City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
Environment Lake cannot exceed 60% for commercial /industrial development and 35%
for multi - family residential. The proposed impervious surface coverage within the
Marshan Lake Shoreland District is classified as commercial development and has been
calculated to be approximately 43% of the total area within the Shoreland District
boundary. No impervious surfaces are proposed within the designated Shoreland
District of George Watch Lake.
The height of structures within the Shoreland Districts shall be limited to thirty -six feet.
Preliminary Plat
The preliminary plat, as submitted, proposes 13 lots, including the Civic Complex and
future YMCA parcels and 3 outlots. There are no specific lot size standards provided
for within the Design Standards. The lot sizes proposed conform to the building
arrangements set forth in the Master Site Plana
Street Right- of -Wav
Adequate street right -of -way is provided for in the plat consistent with the Master Site
Plan. Right -of -way to accommodate the realignment of the northbound I -35W ramp on
Lot 1, Block 2 has been incorporated into the revised plat.
Access Control
Access control, dedicated to Anoka County, and the Minnesota Department of
Transportation (Mn /DOT) were applicable is shown on the revised plat.
Drainage and Utility Easements
Drainage and utility easements will be required. Typically, drainage and utility
easements at least 10 feet wide are required along exterior lot lines and centered on
interior lot lines. However, due to the nature of the development, in consideration of
build to lines, these types of easements are not practical.
Easements will be required around the 100 year flood elevation for all wetlands and
stormwater drainage basins. Additionally easements will be required centered on all
stormwater and utility lines not located within public right -of -way. The width and
locations of such easements have been determined by the City's Consulting Engineer
and are incorporated into the preliminary plat.
Ingress and Egress easements, by separate instrument, will also be required to provide
for shared parking throughout the development.
12
City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
Park Dedication
The revised plat identifies the "Community Green" as Park. Additionally, the
preservation of natural environment areas is included as part of the Design Standards.
Outlot B is identified as the primary preservation area. Anoka County parks, as part of
the EAW comments, requested that this portion of the project be held under public
ownership. As indicated on the plat, Outlot B will be dedicated to the public.
Existing Easements of Record
The preliminary plat references two roadway easements per Anoka County half section
maps that run east -west across the northerly portion of the site. Title work should be
prepared to verify the status of these easements. If they are existing easements of
record they will need to be vacated or otherwise terminated.
Individual Site Development
Upon approval of the Rezoning and Development Stage Plans individual site
development will be reviewed in accordance with the adopted standards. The request
for Site and Building Plan approval for the Regent at Lino Lakes (buildings 6 and 7),
previously reviewed by the Planning & Zoning Board, has been removed from
consideration at this time to allow for further refinement and evaluation of potential uses.
City Advisory Board Reviews
Environmental Board The Environmental Board reviewed the proposed development
on January 28, 2004 and recommended approval with recommendations to be
incorporated into the site landscaping and operation /maintenance agreement. Their
comments are attached.

City Council
Legacy at Woods Edge
March 8, 2004
Development Stage Plan Approval.
Staff makes the following findings with regard to the Development Stage Plan Review
Criteria as established in Section 2.8.d of the City's Zoning Ordinance:
1. The developer will be required to submit an Operation and Maintenance
Agreement to insure adequate property control is provided to protect the
individual owners' rights and property values and the public responsibility for
maintenance and upkeep of the development.
2. The proposed street improvements, including those proposed for Lake Drive, will
not create congestion or dangers and is adequate for the safety of the proposed
project residents and the general public.
Open space as required in the development standards is provided.
The architectural framework as provided for in the design standards will insure
compatibility with the surrounding area.
5. The drainage and utility system plans are being designed by the City's consulting
engineer and are in accordance with city requirements.
6. The developer will be required to submit a development schedule to insure a
logical development of the site which will protect the public interest and conserve
land.
RECOMMENDATION
The intent of the rezoning Wing to Planned Unit Development and the approval of the
Development Stage Plan is to establish the overall regulatory framework, unique to the
development, while allowing flexibility for individual site design. It is anticipated that
modifications to building size, number and placement will happen as the project
develops. However, such modifications will be subject to the requirements set forth in
the Design Standards.
There are several steps in the process that will commence following approval of the
rezoning and Development Stage Plan. These include, but are not limited to,
preparation and evaluation of the public improvement feasibility study, financial
analysis, operation and maintenance agreement and the development agreement.
These items will need to be completed and approved in conjunction with the final plan
approval.
Generally, the proposed development is consistent with the original Calthorpe Master
Plan and Design Standards. The Hartford Group has been very receptive to design
modifications to insure a high quality development. There are some further changes
and clarifications that need to be incorporated into the final plan as suggested in this
report. Additionally, design items such as the streetscaping element will go through
further modification and review as part of the Public Improvement Design process.

CHAPTER 1.
INTRODUCTION
1.1. PURPOSE
The purpose of the Lino Lakes Town Center District is to provide for the orderly and integrated
development of a high - quality Town Center which includes a mix of shops, offices,
entertainment, housing, recreation, community facilities, and open space. The Town Center is
intended to offer citizens a place to enjoy an active street life, community activities, and small
town downtown qualities.
The Town Center standards are the regulating zoning standards for the Town Center District..
Other standards in the zoning ordinance or other regulatory controls notwithstanding, where
there is conflict between the Town Center standards and specific elements of the other City
ordinances or regulations, the Town Center standards shall prevail. Where there is no conflict
and when the Town Center standards do not address a specific instance, other City standards
shall apply.
In the Design and Development Guide, the words "shall" or "must" specifies mandatory
requirements. The word "should" is suggestive and describes what is preferred.
1.2. CONTEXT
The Lino Lakes Town Center site is situated near the northeastern edge of the Twin Cities' rapid
urbanization area. As a "gateway" to the region and a crossroads of both the urban and rural, the
Town Center area gains its identity from rural lands, while looking toward regional job centers
for its citizens' livelihood. The Development Standards seek to combine the best aspects of a
small town downtown with strong visual and ecological connections to the natural environment.
Within Lino Lakes, the Town Center will meet a long- sought desire to create a true center for this
maturing community. With good regional access and visibility, the Town Center's location at the
Lake Drive and Interstate 35W interchange can harness the market forces needed to create a true
downtown, one in which a range of retail, entertainment and cultural needs can be met. See
Figure 1, the Context Map.
DRAFT — 2/6/04 7 PAGINATION TO BE ADJUSTED
Interchange improvements are planned. Abutting the Town Center, Lake Drive will be a 4-lane
highway and narrow quickly to its existing rural highway cross- section. Pedestrian connections
to the Town Center will extend from surrounding uses, including office and commercial uses
west of Lake Drive, residential neighborhoods to the south , and the Rice Creek Chain -of -Lakes
Regional Park Preserve.
1.3. PROJECT DESCRIPTION & DESIGN CONCEPTS
These Development Standards provide for the orderly and integrated development of a high -
quality Town Center for Lino Lakes, near the junction of Lake Drive and Interstate 35W. The
Town Center represents an opportunity to create a place with an active street life and a vibrant
and recognizable heart for the Lino Lakes. The Town Center will be a place for citizens to engage
in community life and enjoy the small town qualities that make Lino Lakes unique.
A mix of shops, offices, entertainment, housing, recreation and community facilities will be
brought together to create a preeminent place. Throughout the Town Center, development will
emphasize comfortable walking environments. As with classic American towns, tree -lined streets
and buildings sited at the sidewalk with frequent entries and windows will create an interesting
pedestrian environment. A Community park and other attractive gathering spots also play a
special role. A village green will be a focal point for Lino Lakes, and will be framed by retail
shops,.and multi-story housing.. The addition of housing to the mix of land uses will ensure that
the Town Center sees around- the -clock activity and vitality. Housing also offers important
opportunities for seniors and other citizens, who may value locations where conveniences are
close at hand and a car is not necessary. The Town Center also affords a unique choice for
residents who chose to work from their homes, but want to be a part of and near a "downtown"
and have access to commercial services.
The Town Center abuts the Chain -of -Lakes Regional Park, offering unparalleled opportunities for
wilderness within blocks. of homes and businesses. Within the Town Center, the region's natural
and scenic qualities shall be preserved and emulated. Building and landscape materials will also
convey a regional "sense -of- place:"
The Regulating Plan (Fig. 4) shows the framework of parks, open space, wetlands, swales, and
other natural features. The location of many of these features is not fixed, but will vary
depending on where buildings, parking lots, and other development occurs.
1.4. ORGANIZATION
The Design and Development Standards are organized by the following categories.
Commercial District (Red)
Allow a range of retail, office, and other commercial uses, within an environment that is highly
oriented to the pedestrian.
Mixed Use District (Orange)
A range of first -floor retail, office and other commercial uses are required, within an environment
that is highly oriented to the pedestrian. Upper -story residential uses are also permitted.
DRAFT — 2/6/04
8 PAGINATION TO BE ADJUSTED
Civic District (Blue)
Allow community facilities such as libraries, City Hall, and community recreation such as
YMCAs.
Residential District (Yellow)
Housing. Allow a variety of townhome units, as long as parameters for density, design and
common open space are met.
Ground Floor Retail or Office Space. In the residential subdistrict (Residential -X) , ground floor
retail or office space is also encouraged, to enliven streets adjacent to parks and provide
transition zones between the Residential District and other Districts.
Commons. A minimum area of publicly - accessible commons (parks or other community
recreation areas) is also required in the Residential District, including Residential -X;. the location
and design are flexible.
Open Space District
Open Space District includes parks and natural resource areas. They create a hierarchy of open
space within the project area, ranging from a formal park or green to undisturbed landscape and
habitat areas. Further discussion and schematic design for parks are in Chapter 5, in the section
on Open Space Districts: Parks and Natural Resource Areas.
Parks. Linear parks are planned in the median of the major streets in the Town Center. Another
small park occurs in the center of the traffic circle in this area. A larger, triangular park is planned
adjacent to the Mixed -Use District.
Natural Resource Areas. A natural resource area adjacent to the regional park is a valuable
habitat area which will be protected in its natural state to safeguard ecological processes and
wildlife. It contributes to a greenbelt of native landscape along the perimeter of the site.
1.5. GOALS
These Development Standards support the following goals:
Economic Development
• Create a setting that supports the long -term viability of the Town Center.
• Optimize job growth, residential opportunities, and tax revenue for the City of Lino Lakes
through the creation of an integrated and balanced project.
Land Use
• Concentrate development at intensities that bring within walking distance the diverse
activities that comprise an active downtown or town center.
• Provide a complementary mix of land uses, including retail, entertainment, civic facilities,
employment, housing, and community open space.
• Integrate community- serving open spaces and amenities throughout the Town Center, and
make connections to the Chain -of -Lakes Regional Park.
• Encourage diverse housing opportunities within the Town Center.
DRAFT — 2/6/04
9 PAGINATION TO BE ADJUSTED
Community Design & Architecture
• Site and design buildings and landscaping for convenient walking distances, enhanced
pedestrian routes, and human comfort and safety.
• Avoid pedestrian routes dominated by parking lots or blank walls.
• Encourage architectural diversity. Emulate Minnesota's architectural traditions and scenic
beauty.
• Encourage energy conservation through architectural features, such as shading devices,
natural ventilation, and interior daylighting.
• Maintain high standards of quality in the construction of building and site features.
• Respect adjacent residential neighborhood and emphasize compatibility through design.
Infrastructure
• Provide streets that create comfortable walking environments while also allowing safe
vehicular movement.
• Establish a network of interconnected local streets throughout the Town Center and extend
pedestrian connections to surrounding areas.
• Generate less automobile traffic than development with segregated land uses by bundling
complementary destinations within a walkable district, and by encouraging transit use.
• Make new information technologies part of the Town Center's infrastructure and encourage
its integration within civic and private uses.
• Utilize naturalized, low -cost solutions for drainage throughout the area and avoid "concrete, .
iron, and steel" solutions.
Administration
• Strive for the timely and orderly implementation of the Town Center through clear, concise
standards.
• Establish standards that are consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan
• Continue to address community concerns as expressed through letters, public comments, and
workshops.

CHAPTER 2.
GOVERNING PLANS
Development in the Town Center is governed by the Land Use and Regulating Plans, described
below, as well as by the standards in the following chapters.
2.1. THE LAND USE PLAN
Figure 3, the Land Use Plan, spells out the basic arrangement and extent of activities within the
Town Center. The land uses shown in the Land Use Plan, correspond to the Mixed Use,
Commercial, and Civic District, which have one set of design and development standards; and
the Residential District, which has another set of design and development standards.
The boundaries shown on the Land Use Plan are approximate. As long as development conforms
to the regulating plan, boundaries may change based on detailed site analysis and revised
regulations for the protection of environmental assets. The Land Use Plan ensures mixed use and
shows specific boundaries for the Residential District. However, residences may also be built as
upper -story housing over ground -floor retail or office in the Mixed -Use District, as long as the
minimum number of units is built. The minimum and maximum numbers of residential units are
assigned in the Lino Lakes Comprehensive Plan,
Minor adjustments to the Land Use Plan are permitted at the discretion of the City Council, if the
Council finds they are consistent with the intent of the Development Standards. Adjustments are
subject to review and reversal by the City Council. Significant adjustments will require
amendment to this land use plan and design standards.
2.2. THE REGULATING PLAN
Figure 4, the "Regulating Plan," specifies essential physical features for the Town Center area,
including required streets, "Build -to Lines," building entrances, gateways, , and landscaped
frontages.
Required Streets
A minimum framework of required streets is shown in Figure 4, the Regulating Plan.. The
design of streets must conform to the standards set forth in the Regulating Plan. Parking lot
drive aisles are not considered streets.
Build -to Lines
Build -to Lines define locations where buildings must be built within a certain distance of the
public right -of -way. Bringing building fronts dose to the edge of streets enhances the continuity,
attractiveness and intimacy of pedestrian spaces.
The build -to line defines a location at which 1) a certain minimum percentage of the block length
must contain buildings, and 2) those buildings must be built within a maximum distance from
theRight of Way. The Regulating Plan shows the location of Build -to Lines, which require either
50 or 70 percent of the block to have buildings, parks, or plazas.
Specific regulations for Build -to Lines are:
• Build -to Lines occur at the edge of the dedicated right -of -way, where private property meets
a publicly- accessible street or path.
DRAFT — 2/6/04
14 PAGINATION TO BE ADJUSTED
• For each block, a minimum percentage (50 or 70 percent) of the linear length of the build -to
line must have a building front, park, or plaza, as specified on Figure 4, the Regulating Plan.
The minimum build -to requirement is measured as a percent of each "block." A block is
defined as a continuous street segment, delimited by two cross streets (not driveways) or
where theroadway makes a significant change in direction. If a non - required street is added
and bisects a build -to line, the build -to requirements govern each separate segment.
• To contribute towards meeting the Build -to requirement, building facades must be set back
no more than 5 feet from the public right of way in the commercial and mixed use districts
and no more than 15 feet in the residential district.
• Parks or plazas may be used to satisfy up to 20 percent of the build -to requirement, and must
be landscaped with shade trees and furnished with seating areas. (In other words, 20 percent
of the 50 or 70 percent requirement may be parks or plazas. For example, for a 70 percent
build -to requirement along a 500 -foot long block, 350 feet (70 percent of 500 feet) would have
to have buildings, parks, or plazas, and the parks or plazas could not constitute more than 70
feet of frontage (20 percent of 350 feet).
• Parking lots, driveways, loading zones, and other vehicular areas do not count towards the
minimum build -to requirement. Such areas, with the exception of driveways and curb cuts,
must be screened as described under "Landscaped Frontages" in Chapter 3.
Standards for Build -to Lines and associated elements such as minims building height, building
frontage, and building entry and window placement and frequency are described in greater
detail in Building Massing and Placement Standards (for the Mixed -Use, Commercial, Highway
Commercial, Civic, and Residential District, Chapters 3 and 4.
Landscaped Frontages
Landscaped Frontages shall be used to extend a sense of enclosure to the street in locations where
street - facing buildings are not *required. Landscaped frontages will also screen views of parking
lots and loading areas, and will help establish a unique project identity.
Required Building Entries
The Regulating Plan shows locations where major building entries must be provided to create
important pedestrian and visual connections. These entries are located at important corners or
intersections, typically where a larger store would locate, where pedestrian and automobile
activity is high, or where buildings face onto public parks. Placing entries at these locations helps
ensure that the buildings relate to the street and that pedestrians have a direct route of entry to
the buildings. Pedestrians passing through these entries establish a "critical mass" of activity at
major corners and near parks.
Although building tenants typically will also need an entry from the rear parking lot, they are
prohibited from closing off or locking up the street - facing entry to simplify their security and
layout needs.
Gateways
Entrances to the Town Center shall be marked by distinctive features that announce the Town
Center and foster a memorable sense of arrival.

3.4. ARCHITECTURAL- STANDARDS
Facade Transparency
The following guidelines help strengthen the relationship between buildings and the street and
increase public safety by placing "eyes" and activity on the street.
Street - Facing Facades along Build -to Lines or within Street Setbacks
For buildings which contribute to frontage along Build -to Lines, or that are within the setbacks
shown in Table 3:
Street - facing building facades shall not have a section of blank wall exceeding 30 linear feet
without being interrupted by a window or entry.
• At least 60 percent of the linear length of street - facing facades must contain windows doors,
or arcades at all levels (stories). Clerestory windows or other high, non - eye -level windows do
not count towards the 60 percent requirement.
• Along Build -to Lines, the ground floor of parking structures must contain shops or other
inhabitable spaces. (See Parking Structures in Section 3.5.)
• Garage doors or entrances to parking structures shall not occupy more than 30 feet of street -
facing facades within each block.
Facades not along Build -to Lines or within Street Setbacks from Table 3:
For buildings that do not contribute to frontage along Build -to Lines or which are not within the
setbacks shown in Table 3:
• The primary building entry and windows shall be visible from a street(s).
• The main entrance(s) shall open directly onto a publicly- accessible Connecting Walkway.
This walkway shall connect directly to the sidewalk or pedestrian walkway of an adjacent
street.
• Building facades that are visible from the street shall not have a section of blank wall
exceeding 30 linear feet without being interrupted by a window, entry, or a section of lattice
with vines.
See the discussion on Connecting Walkways for further guidance.
Building Entries and Windows
Entries. Building massing shall be used to highlight the location of building entries. Primary
pedestrian entries shall be clearly expressed and be recessed or framed by a sheltering element
such as an awning, arcade, porch, or portico. Greater height may be used to accentuate entries in
the form of tower elements, tall openings, or a central mass at an entry plaza.
Reveals. Windows and doors must be recessed at least two inches from walls or exterior trim to
create shadow for visual interest.

Transparency. Buildings shall have frequent doors and windows.
Building Scale and Definition
The guidelines in this section are intended to create buildings with a human scale, making the Town Center
more pedestrian - friendly and a pleasant place to walk
Structural Legibility and Articulation
Facade articulation is required. Building fenestration (windows and doors) and changes in mass
shall relate to structural system(s) and the organization of interior space. Vertical architectural
features such as columns and piers help articulate building mass.
Base and Top Treatments
Unless an exceptional quality of design and materials is demonstrated, building facades must
have three recognizable elements: a base, middle, and top.
Base. The design of the base shall visually support the building. The base must be 1 to 4 feet in
height and must be defined by (but not limited to) one or more features such as:
• Thicker walls
• Richly textured materials (e.g. tile or masonry treatments)
• Special materials such as ceramic tile, granite and marble
Top. The top shall create an attractive profile for the building and must be defined by (but not
limited to) one or more features such as:
• Cornice treatments
• Roof overhangs with brackets
• Stepped parapets
• Richly textured materials (e.g. tile or masonry treatments)
Roof Form/Rooftop Equipment •
A variety of roof forms are permitted. Changes in roof form must correspond with a building's
structural.bays and massing. Mechanical equipment must be integrated into the overall mass of a
building and screened behind parapets or recessed into hips, gables, parapets or similar features.
Plain equipment boxes are not acceptable.

Massing: Along build -to lines, building massing shall vary and help highlight entries.
"Big Box" Buildings. Even away from build -to lines,
the entries to large, boxy buildings shall be defined through building massing, landscaping, or
architectural features such as trellises.
Screening. Rooftop equipment shall be screened from the line of sight of pedestrians and
integrated into the design and massing of the roof form.
Materials and Methods of Construction
Buildings shall support regional traditions and maintain a level of craft in the process of
construction. Wood, masonry, and stone are appropriate building materials.
Consistency. Exterior materials and finishes shall convey a sense of integrity and durability.
Buildings must incorporate consistent, pedestrian-scale textures and details on all sides that are
visible from public streets and pedestrian pathways.
Glass. Clear glass must be used for windows and doors; mirrored glass• is prohibited. Glass
curtain walls are discouraged.
Simulated Materials. Materials that are visibly simulated or prefabricated are prohibited. Scored
plywood (such as "T 1 -11 ") is prohibited.
DRAFT — 2/6/04
25 PAGINATION TO BE ADJUSTED
Proper Application and Detailing. Materials must be properly applied and correctly detailed,
especially at the base of buildings, along cornices, eaves, parapets or ridge tops, and around
entries and windows. Material changes must not occur at external corners, but may occur at
"reverse" or interior corners or as a "return" at least four feet from external corners.
Proper Application and Detailing. Material changes shall occur at
interior or reverse corners (a), or as a "return" of at least four feet from exterior corners (b). Material
changes shall not occur at external corners (c).
Prohibited Preferred
Consistent Application on Facades. All sides of buildings that face streets, parks, or other pedestrian -
oriented areas shall have the same level of architectural detail and fenestration (windows.) Entries at
corners should address both sides.
Energy Conservation and Climatic Response
The effects of the Minnesota climate can be mitigated through intelligent building design,
configuration, and landscape treatments. The following approach will also foster a regional
"sense of place."
Daylighting. Daylighting techniques minimize the need for electric lighting and can reduce peak -
hour energy consumption by as much as 20 percent. While windows are the most common form
of daylighting, light from windows rarely penetrates more than about 20 feet. Additional
daylighting can be obtained with clerestories, lightshelves, and skylights.
Ventilation and Thermal Mass. To lessen dependence on air conditioning, natural cross
ventilation should be maximized. Operable windows, transoms, doors, and vents are preferred
to facilitate airflow across a space. These openings are especially useful on sides facing toward
and opposite prevailing winds.
Passive Heating and Cooling. Site and building design shall consider passive heating and cooling
strategies such as deciduous tree plantings that provide shade in the summer and sun in the
DRAFT — 2/6/04
26 PAGINATION TO BE ADJUSTED
winter. Heat - retaining thermal mass (such as concrete or brick) designed into building walls or
columns absorbs heat during the day and radiates heat at night.
Building design that shades openings reduces direct heat gain during the day. Shading elements
can also add dimensionality to building facades. Eaves or awnings can be sized to shade
windows in the summer but admit sun in the winter when the sun is lower in the sky.
Pedestrian Shelter. Building exteriors shall provide pedestrians shelter from the sun, rain, and
snow. Awnings, entry porticos, arcades, and overhanging eaves are particularly appropriate at
pedestrian pathways. Garden structures such as trellises and arbors (with or without vines) shall
be used to shade pedestrian routes and seating areas.
Other Structures
Service Areas
Service areas are places where truck loading takes place, refuse is stored, or mechanical
equipment is mounted. Service areas must be located away from and screened from view of
streets, parks, and plazas, and landscaped walkways.
Appropriate screening strategies include vine- covered walls or fences, trellises, arcades, dense
landscaping reaching a height of 6 feet, or some combination thereof. Where service areas cannot
be avoided along a street, park or plaza, they must be recessed within a building's envelope.
Trash dumpsters shall be enclosed on four sides. On grade mechanical or electrical transformers
shall be screened from view.
Fences & Walls
.Walls and fences within view of streets, parks, or plazas must be constructed out of attractive,
long- lasting materials, such as wood, wrought iron, masonry, or stone. Chain link and wire
fencing must not be used. Walls and fences must not exceed 42 inches in height within 20 feet of
streets, parks, and plazas.

TABLE 4 NOTES:
[1] Source of peak demand percentages is the Urban Land Institute's Shared Parking Standards, 1983.
Different uses (such as retail, office, and entertainment) shall share off -street parking spaces,
particularly in Mixed -Use Districts, and the maximum number of spaces shall not exceed 125
percent of the combined peak demand as derived with the shared parking calculation. By
recognizing that peak demand occurs at different times for different land uses, shared parking
facilities help minimize the amount of land and expense devoted to parking lots or garages. The
Urban Land Institute's Shared Parking Standards (cited below), or equivalent, shall be used to
calculate the total number of shared parking spaces. To determine shared parking demand, two
or more uses would be added for each hour of the day, for both weekdays and for Saturdays, to
see which hour produces the highest parking demand.
The following steps shall be used to determine the required minimum number of spaces for
mixed -use areas.
1. Note the peak hour demand (above) parking space requirements for each individual land
use.
2. Determine the parking demand for each individual land use for given times, i.e. weekdays
and Saturdays at 10 AM, 1 PM; 5 PM, 8 PM, and 10 PM.
3. Determine the aggregate parking demand for these given times by summing the demand of
the various land uses for each given time.
4. Determine the minimum shared parking space requirement by noting the largest of the
aggregate parking demand figures. On -street parking spaces shall be used to help meet this
requirement.
For more information, see the Urban Land Institute's 1983 publication, Shared Parking, and the
Institute of Transportation Engineer's Shared Parking - Planning Guidelines.

3.6. LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS
Site Planning to Preserve Natural Assets
While the network of required streets is fixed, many siting decisions remain for other streets and
for buildings.
Views & Vistas. Site planning shall recognize the role that street alignment and topography
contribute to visual prominence. High points on the land and vistas along common routes
provide unique opportunities to site important buildings, building entrances, plazas, and
monuments. Doing so will add recognizable landmarks that can make the Town Center a
memorable place.
Grading. Site planning shall minimize grading when locating streets and buildings. When areas
with slopes must be graded, "landform" grading techniques shall be used and slopes exceeding
1:3 shall be avoided. Rounded forms that use concave and convex shapes help conceal cuts by
presenting a more "natural" look. Varied slopes also disperse drainage flows, reducing the
potential for erosion and allowing more percolation. Concentrating drainage in concave swales
also enhances on -site stormwater retention and minimizes the need for large detention areas off-
site. If required, any retaining wsll s shall not exceed 5 feet in height.
Structural soils should be incorporated into tree planning areas that have limited root space to
enable longer lived, faster growing and healthier trees in these areas.
Landscaped Frontages (See city landscaping pallet for accepted species)
A: ten -foot wide landscaped buffer must be placed where parking lots abut local and surrounding
streets, induding along Lake Drive. However, care shall be taken to design and site the buffers
such that they do not provide ambush points or obstruct views. The buffer must include at least
one of the following:
• A low fence or wall of between 24 to 36 inches high, within 3 feet of the street's sidewalk, and
trees planted not more than 30 feet on- center;
• A "hedgerow" of trees planted not more than 30 feet on-center, combined with shrubs.
• A trellis supported by posts not more than 15 feet apart on center, within 3 feet of the street's
sidewalk, and trees planted not more than 30 feet on- center; or
• An equivalent feature that screens views of parked cars and defines the street spatially.
Along Interstate 35W frontage, there is a metal security fence. Planting to screen the security
fence along 35W is required.

standards in Chapter 5, Public Improvement Standards.
Intensity and Direction of Lighting
All lighting fixtures, including spotlights, electrical reflectors, and other means of illuminating
signs, structures, landscaping, parking, loading, and similar areas, shall be focused, directed and
arranged to prevent horizontal glare or direct illumination on adjoining property or streets. A 90
degree cut off must be used to direct light toward walls and landscaping to avoid shining light
up into the sky.
Indirect illumination of neighboring residential properties or uses by any on -site lighting shall
not exceed 0.4 foot candles at the property line, as measured horizontally and vertically from the
adjacent grade to a height of 14 feet.
No mercury vapor utility yard lights or other light fixtures with high intensity discharge lamps
or bulbs, which are not designed to limit or control light direction or which do not shield the light
source from view of neighboring residential properties, shall be permitted.
Lamp Color and Consistency
Subsequent to the adoption of this ordinance, the City is expected to develop a unified lighting
plan for the Town Center. Lamp types shall be selected to enhance color recognition within three
zones: along streets and walkways, within parks and plazas, and within parking lots. Within each
of these zones, lamps of similar type and color shall be used, with the conversion of non-
conforming existing lamps encouraged over time.
Types of Lighting Applications
Architectural. Accent lighting of architectural features is encouraged to highlight building
massing and rhythm and enhance the pedestrian environment. Accent lighting shall not be a
source of glare, reflected glare, or excessive light, especially when viewed from residences and
streets, walkways or open spaces. The following specific standards apply.
Building Entries. Building entries with high activity levels shall be illuminated. Appropriate
treatments include: bathing entry surfaces and doorways with light, allowing the building
interior light to glow through glazing, or using decorative lighting fixtures to announce entries.
Service Areas. Building- mounted downlight fixtures, in combination with pole fixtures, are
preferred for the illumination of building service areas. Such fixtures do not cause glare or light
leakage beyond the service areas.
Landscaped Frontages. Regular uplighting of walls or other structures in Landscaped Frontages
shall occur throughout the. Town Center and must be coordinated to create a consistent and
dramatic effect.
Landscaping and Furnishing. Uplighting is recommended for all landscaping and furnishings (in
both public and private areas) that require accenting (such as specimen trees and shrubs and
sculptural features). Specific areas include streets, parks, and plazas.
Landscaped Walkways. Landscaped Walkways and other pedestrian paths — unless adjacent to a
building that provides adequate lighting — shall be lit by pole or bollard type fixtures that are

34 PAGINATION TO BE ADJUSTED
human - scale, typically not to exceed 16 feet or 4 feet in height, respectively. However, lighting
must be at least 3 feet in height in order to be visible in deep snow drifts or snow banks.
Seating Areas. Where intimate environments are desired (e.g. seating areas in parks and plazas,
and some pedestrian walkways), light bollards and other forms of indirect illumination are
appropriate.
Bollards
Lighting bollards are recommended for illuminating pedestrian walkways, parks and plazas.
Bollards must have a diameter of approximately 8 inches and a height of between 3 -4 feet, to
avoid being obstructed by snow. Around the light source near the top of the bollard, horizontal
louvers must be used to stylistically complement the luminaries and direct light downward.
Concrete finishes shall not be used for lighting bollards.
Submittal Requirements and Design Review
A lighting plan prepared by a qualified lighting consultant shall be submitted for design review
All lighting and their methods of installation shall be reviewed and approved by the City.
Each owner /tenant will be responsible for the design, fabrication, and installation of lights on
private property. Owner /Tenant shall submit three (3) sets of professionally executed sign
drawings for approval by the Planning Department. These drawings shall be of a scale of 1/8 ":1'
or larger, showing light locations, size, layout, design, lamp colors, and materials. The
Owner /Tenant shall meet all City permit and fee requirements for lights prior to installation of
any light.

RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT
STANDARDS
4.1. ALLOWABLE USES
Housing. The Residential District permits a range of owner occupied housing types at moderate
to .high densities, including attached and /or stacked residences, such as townhouses and
condominiums.
Ground -Floor Office and Retail. In the Residential -X District (shown in the Land Use Plan),
ground -floor office, retail, or live /work space is permitted and encouraged in multi-story
residential buildings, in order to create a more active presence along certain streets. (Live /work
units are multi-story residences with a small street - facing storefront or office space for home
offices.)
Neighborhood Open Space. A minimum area of Publicly - Accessible Commons (a shared open
space) is required in the Residential District to provide community areas for gathering, sports,
relaxing, and people- watching. See Section 4.6, Publicly- Accessible Commons.
Residential Streets. Frequently- spaced street trees, modest setbacks, and street facing homes with porches
create an interesting, pedestrian friendly residential neighborhood.
36
DRAFT — 2/6/04
4.2. DENSITY AND DIVERSITY
Density and Housing Targets
The intention of the following density and unit count ranges is to allow variation in housing type,
while ensuring a minimum level of residential development within the Town Center.
Housing in Residential Districts.
Net Developable Acreage. Net Developable Acreage is the total buildable area within a Residential
District and includes publicly - accessible commons and local streets that serve the housing. It does
not include environmentally constrained land such as wetlands or forested areas or required
streets that serve the greater Town Center.
Number of Housing Llnits. In the Residential District, the net density will be a minimum of 10
units /acre, and a maximum of 24 units /acre, not to exceed 190 units.
NOTES:
• Density Applicability. Density limits apply only to units built in the Residential District. They do •
not apply to units built in Mixed -Use Districts.
Adjustments to District Boundaries
Minor Residential District boundary adjustments may be allowed following further
environmental analysis or for other reasons, as long as the density range and maximum number
of units is observed.
Variation in Housing Mix
Within the Residential District, a minimum of two housing models and architectural treatments is
required as follows:
Facade Treatment. At least two e€ unique architectural treatments for each housing model is
required. The architectural treatments must differ in each of three categories: a) facade color, roof
color, or siding material; b) window pattern and trim detail; and c) porch, entryway, or balcony
detailing. Identical buildings shall not be adjacent to or across the street from each other.
DRAFT — 2/6/04 37
4.3. BUILDING MASSING & PLACEMENT
Site Grading
Site planning shall minimize grading when locating streets and buildings. When areas with
slopes must be graded, "landform" grading techniques shall be used and slopes exceeding 1:3
shall be avoided. Rounded forms that use concave and convex shapes help conceal cuts by
presenting a more "natural" look. Varied slopes also disperse drainage flows, reducing the
potential for erosion and allowing more percolation. Concentrating drainage in concave swales
also enhances on -site stormwater retention and minimizes the need for large detention areas off -
site. If required, any retaining walls shall not exceed 5 feet in height.
Building Height
Residences and garages, including residences built over first -floor commercial, shall not exceed
45 feet in height as measured from finished grade. Chimneys, vents, cupolas, ornamental
parapets, and other minor projections may exceed these height limits by up to 3 feet.
Building Orientation
Orientation. The primary entry of every dwelling shall face and be accessible from a street or
Publicly - Accessible Commons or open space. Each primary entry shall be recessed no more than
6 feet behind the face of the primary facade. Rear yards shall not face onto streets, open space, or
Commons. See additional standards under "Publicly- Accessible Commons."
Building Frontage
L Where build -to lines govern, entries must face the street 70 percent of the block length
must have building fronts, parks or plaza within the required setback area.
2. Where build -to lines are shown on the Regulating Plan, buildings shall face the street
and shall occupy a minimum percentage of each block's linear street (at least 50
percent or 70 percent, as noted in the Regulating Plan, within the required setback
area.
3. Buildings shall be sited a minimum of 5 feet and a maximum of 15 feet from the public
right -of -way.
Porches, Stoops, & Other Entry Features
All units must have a porch, stoop, or lobby, as described below.
Porches. Porches create a transition zone between the private space of the home and the public
space of the street. Porch roofs must be supported by columns or posts, rather than being
cantilevered. Side porches and wrap- around front /side porches are encouraged at comer lots to
help provide interest and variation for the corner side building elevation.
Stoops. Stoops are a simpler transition zone than porches. They are typically not covered, but are
a set of steps with a wider stair or landing at the top, and typically are made of stone.
Attached Product Entrances. Individual entries to ground -level apartments (rather than shared
entries) are encouraged, to create greater connections to the street.
DRAFT — 2/6/04
38
Units with Individual Entrances
This guideline applies to townhouses and other products that have individual, private entrances
to each unit. Porches and stoops for such units may extend up to 6 feet into the setback.
Attached Products with Individual Entrances. All duplexes, townhouses, and other attached
products with individual street -level unit entrances must have a porch or a stoop.
Porch Dimensions. All porches must have a minimum depth of 6 feet clear. A porch must make
up a minimum of 30 percent of the width of a building's primary front or 10 feet clear, whichever
is larger.
Stoop Dimensions. Stoops must be proportionate to the scale of the entry.

All residential garage doors shall consist of articulated panels
42
DRAFT — 2/6/04
Building Scale and Definition
Articulation
All Residential Products. The front facade of all residential buildings must be articulated with
porches, bay windows, or balconies that face the adjacent street, park, or open space. No wall
shall have a blank, uninterrupted appearance exceeding 20 feet in width without a window,
recessed panel, lattice, trellis, change in texture or plan, or equivalent treatment. To insure visual
interest and appropriate scale, windows, doors, and eaves must have reveals and recesses.
Attached Products. The front facades of attached products shall read as a series of distinct
vertical building forms or "bays" along a "street wall." The overall composition of the main
building shall highlight proportion and rhythm among a series of bays and the overall building
mass. Pilasters, columns, reveals, fenestration, and other details may be used to achieve this
effect.
Roof Form
All townhome residential buildings must have hipped or gabled roofs. Flat roofs are allowed
provided they are accompanied by an ornate cornice or similar features.
Materials and Methods of Construction •
Materials. New buildings shall support regional traditions and maintain a level of craft in the
process of construction. Exterior finishes shall be primarily of wood, brick, stone or stucco. Vinyl,
aluminum and metal siding are prohibited
Application. To avoid an "applied" look, material changes must not occur at external corners, but
may occur at "reverse" or interior corners or as a "return" at least 6 feet from external comers.
Scored plywood (such as "T 1 -11 ") must not be permitted. Refer to the diagrams in Section 3.4,
"Materials and Methods of Construction," in Chapter 3.
Side Elevations at Corner Lots. The street -side elevation of any residence located at a street
corner or siding onto open space or publicly- accessible commons (including single - family,
attached, and multi-family units) must have the same materials, finishes, and level of detail as the
front elevation, with multiple windows.
Additional Architecture Features. The following features are encouraged:
• Rooftop patios and gardens on flat roofed attached unit buildings.
• Corner balconies on street facing facades and multi-level buildings to encourage •
container gardens and planters.
Energy Conservation and Climatic Response
Buildings
Building design shall respond to hot summers and cold winters with deep recesses and
overhangs, and pitched roofs. A porch shall protect entries, particularly the front door. Principal
rooms shall have windows on two sides, whenever possible, to provide balanced daylighting and

to facilitate natural cooling and ventilation. Homes should be oriented so that a majority of
primary living spaces receive direct sunlight, and incorporate overhangs, awnings or trellises that
allow the low winter sun to penetrate the unit, while blocking the high summer sun.
Driveway Paving
Concrete driveways are preferable to asphalt paving..
Turf blocks. Turf blocks are masonry unit paver blocks which are planted with turf to create the
appearance of a lawn or grassy strip and allow stormwater infiltration, but which can support
occasional vehicle use. They are appropriate for secondary emergency access rights -of -way,
driveway medians, and other surfaces that do not experience regular use.
Other Structures
Service and Loading Area Screening
Large residential buildings often contain service areas or loading docks. Screening of such areas
shall meet the same requirements as described in the section on Service Areas in Chapter 3,
Mixed -Use, , and Civic District Standards.
Fences and Walls
Fences are allowed within the residential neighborhood: "privacy" fences, wrought iron fences
and "picket" fences. In no case are cyclone, chain link, or wire fencing allowed. No fence may be
constructed in a drainage utility easement without an encroachment permit from the City.
Privacy Fences and Privacy Walls. Privacy Fences are allowed only to separate patios of adjacent
units and shall not enclose entire area. They may be up to 6 feet high and shall be built with
attractive, long - lasting materials, such as wood, masonry, or stone. Hedges may be used as an
alternative to a privacy fence provided it meets the privacy fence requirements.
Picket Fences. Picket fences shall be not more than 42 inches in height, and shall be primarily
wood or wrought iron with the exception of comer posts and gate posts, which may be masonry
or stone. Picket fences shall not be solid and must be at least 50 percent visually permeable. An
alternative to a picket fence is a hedge, which shall be maintained at a maximum height of 42
inches. Picket fences or hedges may be located at the back of sidewalk along the front or exposed
side of a lot. They may also be located along the rear property line of those lots that back onto
open space areas.

RE:

Legacy at Woods Edge — Traffic Operations Analysis
SEH No. A- LINOL0304.00 14.00
Traffic operations were evaluated at three intersections along CSAH 23 (Lake Drive) in the City of Lino
Lakes. The evaluation was conducted to learn the operational impacts of the Legacy at Woods Edge
development and the proposed roadway improvements. The three intersections reviewed include:
• Lake Drive and Southbound I -35W Ramps
• Lake Drive and Northbound I -35W Ramps
• Lake Drive and Town Center Parkway
These intersections were modeled using traffic simulation software to determine traffic operations under
the existing and proposed geometrics and intersection control. The proposed improvements used for the
analysis are shown on the preliminary plat that was submitted to the City in December 2003. These
improvements are considered to be interim until the Lake Drive bridge over I -35W can be replaced. PM
peak hour traffic volumes were used in the analysis because this hour experiences the highest traffic
volumes in the existing and forecast years. As part of the approval process on this project, Mn/DOT
required four sets of analyses:
Existing 2003 — Analysis of the existing geometrics, intersection control and traffic volumes was
used to establish baseline traffic operations.
2005 No -Build - Analysis of the existing geometrics and intersection control was conducted with
2005 forecast traffic volumes including full build -out of the development to determine traffic
operations at the year of opening if no improvements were made to the existing system.
2005 Build — Analysis of the proposed geometrics, intersection control and 2005 forecast traffic
volumes including full build -out of the development was conducted to determine traffic
operations at the year of opening.
2010 Build A "horizon year" analysis was required to determine the year at which the proposed
geometric and intersection control improvements would fail. Mn/DOT staff typically requires a
20 -year forecast for the horizon year analysis. In this case, during discussions with Mn/DOT staff
it was agreed that a "failure date" would likely occur prior to a 20 -year timeframe due to the
capacity constraints presented by the existing Lake Drive bridge over I -35W, as well as those on
mainline I -35W itself.

The 2005 forecast traffic volumes were determined by applying a 1.5 percent per year growth rate to the
existing traffic at the ramp intersections and adding the full build -out development traffic to those
volumes. The 2010 forecast traffic volumes were determined by applying the 1.5 percent per year growth
rate to all volumes including the development volumes. The traffic volumes used in the analysis are
consistent with those discussed in the October 23, 2003 memorandum from Glen Van Wormer. The
existing and forecast turning movement volumes used in the analysis are attached.
Traffic Operations Analysis
The evaluation of traffic operations is based on calculations of the volume to capacity ratio (V /c) ratio and
average delay per vehicle in seconds per vehicle (s /veh) for intersections. These calculations result in a
measure of Level of Service (LOS). The LOS of an intersection is graded on a score of "A" (least delay
per vehicle) to "F' (most delay per vehicle). Most major roadways in the Minneapolis /St. Paul
metropolitan area typically operate at levels of service in the range of D to E during evening rush hours. A
LOS of D is generally acceptable for design.
Simulation was used to model traffic over the PM peak hour to determine the average delay per vehicle
and the related LOS for each intersection and approach. Another critical element of traffic operations
analysis is queuing — the distance that approaches to an intersection "back -up" with vehicles. Simulation
reported the maximum queues for the intersections and the animation was reviewed to determine how the
queues impacted operation. The LOS for the intersections analyzed are shown in Table 1 and the
maximum queues as compared to available or proposed storage are shown in Table 2 (attached).
Also reviewed were critical lane volumes per the methods in the Mn/DOT Traffic Signal Timing and
Coordination Manual. This analysis reviews the critical turning movement volumes at intersections for
the purpose of determining the general capacity sufficiency of a signalized intersection.
Existing 2003
Turning movement volumes conducted by Mn/DOT on December 3, 2003 at the I -35W ramp
intersections with Lake Drive were used in conjunction with turning movements obtained from trip
generation for the existing development in Legacy at Woods Edge and the existing gas station in the
southwest quadrant of the interchange. A field review of existing traffic operations was conducted during
the PM peak hour on Tuesday January 20, 2004. The simulation of existing traffic operations showed
results similar to the field review.
The Northbound I -35W ramps are currently offset at Lake Drive. The Northbound I -35W exit ramp
showed a maximum standing queue of 12 vehicles during the field observation and the simulation showed
a maximum standing queue of 7 vehicles or 140 feet. The existing LOS for the exit ramp approach to the
intersection is LOS A. It was observed in the field that the exiting vehicles do receive gaps in traffic
caused by the platooning of vehicles from the traffic signal at Apollo Drive and Lake Drive. These gaps
allow the exiting vehicles to make their movements without excessive delay.
The LOS for the approaches to each of the three intersections is at LOS C or better.
2005 No -Build
This analysis showed system failures under the 2005 Build forecast traffic volumes and existing
geometric and intersection control conditions. The intersection of Lake Drive with the Northbound I -35W
City of Lino Lakes
Legacy at Woods Edge — Traffic Operations Analysis

Page 3
exit ramp showed LOS F at the exit ramp approach. Based on Mn/DOT design manuals the exit ramp
must have sufficient deceleration distance for vehicles to exit the freeway safely and come to a complete
stop. The queue for this approach extends into the deceleration area exceeding the available storage.
The Town Center Parkway approach to Lake Drive also operates at LOS F with two -way stop control at
the intersection and existing geometry.
2005 Build
This analysis assumes the proposed interim geometric improvements and traffic signals with coordinated
timings at each of the three intersections. The Northbound I -35W entrance ramp was realigned to oppose
the exit ramp. The LOS for the approaches at each of the intersections is LOS D or better as shown in
Table 1.
The maximum queues from Table 2 show that some approaches did exceed proposed storage. It is
important to note that the table shows the maximum queues experienced over the analysis hour, not the
average queues. It is important to note the maximum queues to provide an accurate account of what may
occur at some point during the peak hour on the system, however they are not always an indicator of how
the system will operate throughout the entire analysis hour. This is why review of the animation should
accompany a summary of queues. The average queues reported by the simulation are also helpful in
understanding traffic operations. The 2005 Build traffic operations at each of the intersections are
summarized below.
Lake Drive and the Southbound I -35W ramps: The northbound left-turn lane had a maximum
queue that exceeded the proposed 150 -foot storage lane. Review of the animation showed this
will not interfere with system operations during the analysis hour. It should be noted that the
average queue reported by the simulation program at this location is 40 feet.
Lake Drive and Northbound I -35W ramps: Analysis showed that the southbound left turn lane
had a maximum queue that exceeded the proposed 150 -foot storage lane. Review of the
animation showed this will not interfere with system operations during the analysis hour. It
should also be noted that the reported average queue at this location is 61 feet.
The table also shows that the maximum queue for the northbound through lane exceeds the
proposed storage between Town Center Parkway and the northbound ramps. The animation
showed that this queue was not a "standing" queue that blocked the intersection of Town Center
Parkway. Instead the queues cleared quickly and did not block the intersection. The reported
average queue at this location was 267 feet, which is less than the proposed storage. A review of
the volume to capacity ratios and critical lane volumes also showed acceptable operation.
Lake Drive and Town Center Parkway: The analysis showed that the southbound dual left turn
lanes had maximum queues of 203 and 215 feet, respectively. These queues exceed the proposed
180 -foot storage lanes. The reported average queues for these lanes were less than 150 feet,
which is less than the proposed storage. Review of the simulation showed that the queue did not
interfere with system operations over the analysis hour.
Table 2 also shows that the westbound left and right -turn lanes exiting the development have
maximum queues that exceed the 275 feet of proposed storage between Lake Drive and Village

Drive. The average queues reported for the left and right turn lane are 144 and 222 feet
respectively. The animation showed that this queue is not typically a "standing" queue as it
cleared quickly the majority of the time but at times over the analysis hour it did block Village
Drive. A review of the volume to capacity ratios and critical lane volumes also showed acceptable
operation of the Lake Drive/Town Center Parkway intersection.
2010 Build
This analysis assumes the proposed interim geometric improvements and traffic signals with coordinated
timings at each of the three intersections. The Northbound I -35W entrance ramp was realigned to oppose
the exit ramp. The LOS for the approaches at each of the intersections was LOS D or better, however, the
other tools used to measure traffic operations show 2010 to be the date of failure.
The primary reason for the failure at this date is the lack of capacity on Lake Drive. Due to the existing
bridge over I -35W, Lake Drive traffic is forced into a single lane in each direction. The Town Center
Parkway and Northbound I -35W ramp intersections experience queue and capacity problems because of
the need for additional capacity on Lake Drive. As part of the analysis the signal timings and coordination
were optimized, however this could not mitigate the capacity deficiency on Lake Drive.
The forecast traffic volumes on Lake Drive and the I -35W exit ramps must compete for signal time. At
the intersection of Lake Drive and the Northbound I -35W ramps, the exit ramp and the northbound
through and right -turn lanes have maximum queues that exceed proposed storage. Specifically, the
Northbound I -35W exit ramp experiences a maximum queue that extends into the deceleration area for
the exit ramp. This is not acceptable to Mn/DOT or the Federal Highway Administration due to the
potential to impact freeway operations. In addition the volume to capacity ratios for the left and right turn
lanes on the exit ramp — 0.85 and 0.95 respectively — are nearing 1.0, which indicates capacity problems.
The approach queues for northbound Lake Drive at this intersection extend to the Town Center Parkway
intersection and the animation shows that it will interfere with intersection operations. The northbound
through lane has a volume to capacity ratio of 1.02, which indicates capacity problems. The critical lane
volumes at this intersection also show the potential for a capacity problem as they are near volume limits
for acceptable operations.
Meeting with Mn /DOT
A meeting was held January 29, 2004 with the Mn/DOT Area Engineer and Mn/DOT traffic and freeway
modeling staff to review the analysis and results discussed above. Mn/DOT staff did not request any
additional analysis. The need for an Interchange Access Request (IAR) was discussed due to the proposed
realignment of the Northbound I -35W entrance ramp with the exit ramp. An IAR is required by the
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) if a new interchange is proposed or if an existing interchange
configuration is proposed for modification (i.e. converting a diamond interchange to a cloverleaf). The
Mn/DOT Area Engineer contacted the local FHWA representative regarding this issue. FHWA stated that
an IAR would not be necessary. FHWA also stated that documentation must be provided that shows
traffic will not back up from the ramps onto mainline I -35W and that FHWA needs to review the
modeling results.

Environmental
Memo
To: Michael Grochala
From Marty Asleson
Date: January 23, 2004
Re: Environmental Board Recommendations /January 21, 2004
The Environmental Board made the following recommendations at the January 21,
2004 Environmental Board meeting:
• Landscaping:
• All tree - planting areas should have planting holes prepared as per illustration.
All planting areas where soil compaction is necessary because of buildings and
pavement should use CU structural soils or some other method to allow for
suitable root growth). It would be better to plant smaller trees in CU, soils than
larger trees in compacted soils.
• Species selection should combine appropriate native /indigenous species that
complement the native landscape and architectural features. Suggest some
flexibility in street tree planting specifications in order to add ,possible traffic
calming features (species and spacing) to the landscape. All trees should be
zone 4 species. Desirable species for Legacy:
• Oaks ( Red, Northern pin, White, Burr and Swamp white)
• Page 1
• Red maple /Acer rubrum (North woods, Red maple, Autumn spire, Fire dance,
North fire, Red sunset):
• Autumn blaze (do not over use)
• Birch ( River, Paper)
Common hackberry
• Thomless Cockspur Hawthorn
• Green ash ( Green, Bergeson, Marshall's, Patmore, Summit)
Honeylocust/Thomless
• Larch
• Flowering crab (Dolgo, Donald Wyman, Flame, Indian magic, Kelsey, Pink spire,
Radiant, Red splendor, Snowdfirt, Sparkler, Spring snow,
• Quaking aspen
• Linden ( American, Redmond)
• Elm ( Discovery, Accolade, or other disease resistant zone 4 elms)
• Pines ( White, Red, Austrian along freeway if pines are planned there)
• Spruce (white)
All shrubs should be zone 4 suitable and non - invasive.
It is encouraged to use native flower and ground cover plants as much as
possible. The use of cultivars should be permitted as long as such cultivars are
non - invasive. •
• All native seed areas should approximate the City specifications for seed. . It is
encouraged to use potted plants and/or plugs as much as possible.
• Vines. The Environmental Board has stated an interest in the use of vines on
building surfaces.
All planting areas should have available water.
Plantings on poles should have available water.
Electricity for accent lighting should be available throughout the planting areas.
Trails
All future trail extensions should be placed off -of eco- edges.
Site soils
Any soils that are not intended to be compacted should be protected from
unnecessary compaction (infiltration areas, pond and park areas).
Pursue a conservation easement on the SE corner of the project.
• Use landscape lighting only in the common areas, interior to buildings. Use solar
powered lights if possible.
In addition, the Environmental Board wished to carry forward previous
recommendations made during the review process. These recommendations
included:
Best management practices for surface water quality should be initiated and
integrated into the predicted phosphorous exports for the site. Best management
practices should include periodic and timely sweepings to capture sediment laden
• Page 2
phosphorous on impervious surfaces. A vacuum type sweeper is a better tool for
removing phosphorous deposits on impervious surfaces. Best management
practices should also include the elements sited in the plan for Market Place north of
35W.
All lighting should be constructed in accordance with the requirements of the Lino
Lakes Zoning Ordinance.
In all cases, city standards for tree preservation should be implemented. If trees are
moved, than storage area needs to be designated until the planting areas are ready.
(Usually tree removal happens before initial grading operations).
Motion by O'Connell, second by O'Dea to recommend approval of the Legacy
project with above recommendations. All were in favor. Motion passed.:`
