9 NorthPoint Industrial Park – Lake Elmo, MN │Traffic Analysis <br />January 2022 <br />TABLE 3: AUAR DEVELOPMENT SCENARIOS <br />Full Development Scenario 1 <br />Land Use Size <br />Industrial Business Park 1,753,400 Square Feet <br />Commercial 91,500 Square Feet <br />Multifamily Residential Units 400 Dwelling Units <br />Full Development Scenario 2 <br />Land Use Size <br />Industrial Business Park 1,557,380 Square Feet <br />Commercial 178,596 Square Feet <br />Multifamily Residential Units 334 Dwelling Units <br />Single Family Residential Units 38 Dwelling Units <br />Full Development Scenario 3 <br />Land Use Size <br />Industrial Business Park 2,2 00,000 Square Feet <br />Commercial 91,500 Square Feet <br />Single Family Residential Units 56 Dwelling Units <br />Full Development Scenario 4 <br />Land Use Size <br />Industrial Business Park 1,100,000 Square Feet <br />Single Family Residential Units 10 Dwelling Units <br />For scenario s 1, 2, 3, and 4, the development south of 34th Street N was assumed to be fully built by the <br />Opening Year (2025). All four scenarios are expected to have the same development, 1,100,000 square <br />feet of industrial business park, in the Opening Year. Full development was assumed for all four scenarios <br />by Horizon Year (2040). The access locations are anticipated to be the same in all four scenarios. <br />4.4 TRIP GENERATION <br />Proposed development traffic was based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) Trip <br />Generation, 11th Edition. The manual provides peak hour trips rates/equations , inbound -outbound <br />percentages, and truck percentages which were used to estimate the number of daily peak hour, and truck <br />trips that can be attributed to the undeveloped site. Based on a review of industrial land uses provided in <br />the manual, Land Use Code (LUC) 154 (High-Cube Transload and Short -Term S torage Warehouse), LUC <br />820 (Shopping Plaza >150ksf), LUC 821 (Shopping Plaza 40ksf -150ksf), LUC 210 (Single Family Detached <br />Housing), LUC 220 (Multifamily Housing Low-Rise), and LUC 221 (Multifamily Housing Mid -Rise ) were <br />determined to be the most appropriate fit for the proposed development. <br />LUC 154 was determined to most accurately reflect trip generation of typical NorthPoint industrial <br />d evelopment based on a study completed by Priority Engineers, Inc. in December 2019. The NorthPoint <br />Development Traffic Trip Generation Analysis is included in Appendix D. <br />Scenarios 1-4 all have the same phase 1 development. Table 4 provides a summary of trip generation for <br />development phase 1 of Scenarios 1-4. Based on the trip generation calculation, phase 1 development is <br />anticipated to generate 90 total trips during the AM Peak Hour (70 entering and 20 exiting), 110 total trips <br />during the PM Peak Hour (30 entering, 80 exiting), and 1,540 total daily trips.
