APPROVAL OF MINUTES
It was moved by T. Wier to approve the minutes of June 11, 2015. The motion was seconded by
N. Vojteck and passed unanimously.
FIRE STATION UPDATE
Mr. Swenson, Director of Public Safety, gave the committee a synopsis of where the
construction is at for the new City of Lino Lakes fire station as well as, the training of personal,
equipment that Lino Lakes owns, and the federal grant process to acquire further funding for
more necessary equipment.
LEGACY AT THE WOODS EDGE (City Property)
Mr. Grochala, Director, discussed an overview of Legacy at the Woods Edge, a city owned
property, at the intersection of Interstate 35W and Lake Drive. There is roughly 20 acres
remaining in the Planned Unit Development that contains the YMCA, civic offices, apartments,
assisted living, a bank, and a medical facility. Available for development are three blocks
referenced as the Urban Block, Neighborhood Block, and Town Square Block.
As for the overview, development of the Neighborhood Block was the main topic discussed. Mr.
Grochala explained the pros and cons of short-term development goals as well as, long-term
development goals while capturing the maximum investment for the property.
The committee discussed many topics concerning the Neighborhood Block development
including whether the City of Lino Lakes should retain the investment longer to increase market
value, the type of residential housing that should be developed (townhouses, detached
townhouses, or apartments) with flexibility, and if the infrastructure surrounding Legacy at the
Woods Edge will allow for the town center development Lino Lakes is pursuing.
BUSINESS RETENTION & EXPANSION PROGRAM
Mr. Grochala briefly mentioned that Ms. Barsness is still working on developing more steps for a
working plan and a cost estimate breakdown.
PROJECT UPDATES
Mr. Grochala provided an overview of ongoing projects regarding upcoming housing
developments. Staff is working with the owner of the 49 Club to demolish the building this fall
however; estimates for demolition are higher now because of associated cost with filling the
basement. The Watermark project will likely submit an application for preliminary approvals
this fall. Street reconstruction in the Shenandoah is nearing completion.
ADJOURNMENT
The meeting was adjourned at 9:16.

BACKGROUND
November 5, 2015
PUD Concept Plan Review
North Oaks Company
PC2015-001
North Oaks Company, LLC
Attn: Christine Heim
5959 Centerville Road Suite 200
North Oaks, MN 55127
The applicant has submitted a land use application for PUD Concept Plan review. The proposed
development is a PUD master planned residential community located south of County Road
J/Ash Street, west of CSAH 21/Centerville Road and north of Wilkinson Lake Boulevard. It
contains 2 parcels totaling approximately 46 gross acres and consists of a residential density mix
of single family homes, twin homes and senior housing rentals totaling 136-161 housing units.
The development proposes 27 single family homes, 17 twin homes (34 units total) and 75-100
senior housing rentals. These senior rentals would be similar to the existing brownstones located
at Waverly Gardens to the south.
ANALYSIS
Comprehensive Plan
Land Use Plan
Per the City's Comprehensive Plan, the project site is guided for both High Density Residential
(6.0-10.0 DU per acre) and Mixed Use (8.0 to 15.0 DU per acre). Approximately 60 percent of
the Mixed Use area is expected to accommodate residential development at approximately 8 to
15 units per acre. The remaining 40 percent is to accommodate commercial development. North
Oaks is proposing all residential development and no commercial.
Per page 3-17 of the Comprehensive Plan, the mix of commercial and residential uses will vary
for each site. It is important to note that the mixed -use percentages are preliminary and are
intended to serve as a guide for future decision -making. As plans for specific mixed use areas are
refined, suggested density, total units, and the residential/commercial split may be revised. To
best serve the community's changing needs and market conditions, flexibility in these areas is
essential. Gross and net acreages for mixed use development represent the potential for new
mixed use development, and do not account for existing mixed use development projects in the
city.
Mixed Use Areas Guidance and Recommendations:
The Comprehensive Plan provides specific guidance for this development site. The site is
expected to develop as an extension of the mixed use multi -family and commercial development
south of the municipal boundary, in the City of North Oaks. Commercial development in White
Bear Township fronts County Road J (Ash Street) all the way to the freeway.
The site is surrounded by Centerville Road, County Road J (Ash Street), and Wilkinson Lake.
Wilkinson Lake is classified as a Natural Environment Lake under the Minnesota shoreland
management rules. This lake is small and often appears to be a wetland or even a dry prairie
rather than a lake. Any development design must include careful consideration to water quality
and potential impacts on the lake.
Approximately 60 percent of the Mixed Use area is expected to accommodate residential
development at approximately 8 to 15 units per acre. The remaining 40 percent is to
accommodate commercial development.
Based on the information submitted with the concept plan, the development density required
equates to approximately 7 units per acre. The current proposal is at approximately 3.6 units per
acre. The proposed development is not consistent with the Comprehensive plan for density.
No commercial has been proposed as part of the development. The developer has indicated that
lack of market interest in the site. Staff has requested a market study be provided regarding
commercial opportunities in the area. It should be noted that commercial vacancies currently
exist to the south of the site. The commercial center southeast of the site, which includes the
movie theatre, still has land available for development and vacancies currently exist with the
multi -tenant buildings.
While the need for commercial development on the site may not currently be present the City
may wish to preserve the opportunity for its inclusion as the project moves forward.
Sanitary Sewer Plan
Public water, sanitary and storm sewer utilities will be installed within the development. The site
is located in Sanitary Sewer District 4 (Sub -district 4A) and is ultimately served by White Bear
Township. An existing gravity and force main sanitary sewer bisects the southwest corner of the
site. This was installed to serve the North Oaks Rapp Farms development and is connected with
White Bear Township. The site will be serviced from an existing 18" gravity main in the
southeast corner of the site.
An existing watermain also bisects the site and serves the North Oaks Rapp Farms. Public water
will also be served by White Bear Township.
A Joint Powers Agreement between Lino Lakes and White Bear Township will be required for
watermain and sanitary sewer service.
Housing lan
Goals of the Housing Plan include:
• Goal 3: Ensure housing development is compatible with existing and adjacent land uses
and provides accessibility to key community features and natural amenities.
• Goal 5: Improve availability of affordable and life -cycle housing.
• Goal 6: Enhance opportunities for senior housing.
The proposed development is consistent with the goals of the Housing Plan by providing life -
cycle and senior housing. Trail corridors and sidewalks shall provide access to natural amenities
and commercial nodes.
Economic Development Plan
Goals of the Economic Development Plan are:
• Goal 1: Expand and diversify the city's tax base by encouraging mixed -use and nodal
development to lessen the tax burden on residential properties.
• Goal 2: Work with developers to identify innovative strategies for attracting entry level
and smaller entrepreneurial businesses to Lino Lakes.
• Goal 3: Attract and encourage new light industrial, high tech, business and professional
services enterprises and maintain and expand existing businesses in Lino Lakes.
• Goal 4: Promote efficient, planned commercial and industrial expansion within the City's
growth areas, accessible to public infrastructure and transportation.
• Goal 5: Promote Lino Lakes' location within the metropolitan region as an advantage in
doing business.
Per the Comprehensive Plan, the mixed use guidance for the east parcel allows for a
residential/commercial mix of 60/40. The need for commercial development needs to be further
discussed.
Transportation Plan
Goals of the Transportation Plan are:
• Goal 1: Plan for and achieve required street improvements and connectivity throughout
the City of Lino Lakes.
• Goal 2: Ensure that streets and roads are as safe as possible.
• Goal 3: Improve traffic flow despite increase in traffic numbers.
• Goal 4: Ensure that local streets are maintained (or reconstructed to) an acceptable level.
• Goal 5: Reduce unnecessary traffic on Lino Lakes' streets and roads.
• Goal 6: Promote alternative transportation such as bicycling, walking, transit and rail.
• Goal 7: Maintain and coordinate the transportation system with adjacent communities,
Anoka County, Washington County, Metropolitan Council and Mn/DOT.
The proposed development shall provide consistency with the Comprehensive Plan by
incorporating sidewalks and trails, connecting public access to CSAH 32/Ash Street and making
necessary improvements to the intersection of CSAH 21/Centerville Road.
The inclusion of sidewalks and trails are critical for pedestrian connectivity to nearby
commercial nodes. Retail businesses, restaurants, and a movie theater exist within a'/4 mile of
the subject site.
Planning Districts
The development is located in Planning District 4.
Overall Recommendations include:
• A gateway should be considered at the intersection of Centerville Road and County Road
J (Ash Street).
• Work with White Bear Township to create Joint Powers Agreements for municipal utility
MAIFIKINA
• Pursue a full interchange at I-35E and County Road J (Ash Street).
• Work with Anoka County and Ramsey County to ensure appropriate access management
on County Road J (Ash Street).
Growth Management Policy
Per the Comprehensive Plan (page 3-27), an annual average of 230 units per year over each 5
year phasing period not to exceed 345 units in any 1 year is allowed. At the end of the 5 year
phasing period unallocated units will be averaged out over the next 5 years.
A phasing plan shall be required to insure consistency with this requirement.
EDAC CONSIDERATION
Staff is requesting input from the Economic Development Advisory Committee on the following:
1. How important is the commercial component to the site?
2. Should focus be on connecting with existing off -site commercial opportunities rather than
providing for commercial uses?
2
3. Should the plan be designed to provide flexibility for the possible inclusion of
commercial uses if market conditions change?
