5. EDC BUSINESS
A. Review Potential Acquisition of 2832 County Road 10
Economic Development Specialist Steinmetz provided the EDC with background information
about the"PAK"building and how the property has been included in a redevelopment area
since at least 2002, when URS created the City's most recent County Road 10
Redevelopment and Revitalization Plan. Ms. Steinmetz asked the EDC to discuss what
they envision for the site.
• The EDC discussed that the property is worth land value only assuming the EDA would
demolish the building if the EDA acquired the property.
Draft EDC Minutes

Page 2 of 3
• Commissioner Meehlhause said that the two areas along County Road 10 that he would like
to see redeveloped are 1) County Rd H2 to Woodale and 2) the"PAK"building area,which
includes the former Simon's building and the EDA-owned residential lot. He said that the
EDC should recommend a vision for the PAK building area in conjunction with purchasing
the PAK property. He reiterated that the EDA should use the $700,000 in available TIF,
rather than returning it to Ramsey County.
Commissioner Meehlhause continued by stating that his vision for the area is a medical
clinic or a restaurant such as a Davannis.
Commissioner Belting mentioned that it will take time to create a vision for the area, so the
EDC first needs to decide if acquiring the PAK property is important. City Administrator
Ericson added that one could argue that removing the PAK building would be an
improvement to the County Road 10 corridor and that a vacant parcel in its place could
improve surrounding property values.
Chair Johnson said that a redevelopment of the area should 1) compliment CVS Pharmacy
and the other nearby businesses and 2) not completely disturb nearby traffic patterns.
Motion/Second: Commissioner Meehlhause moved and Commissioner Larson seconded a
recommendation to the EDA that the EDA purchase the PAK property for the purpose of
future redevelopment.
Motion Carried: 5 Ayes, 0 Nays
• B. Discuss Possible Demolition Assistance for 8379 Red Oak Drive
Ms. Steinmetz provided the EDC with background information about 8379 Red Oak Drive,
including various code enforcement issues and police activity at the property. She added
that a representative of the property owned contacted city staff in November 2011 inquiring
about assistance that the city might have available to demolish the home on the property.
Motion/Second: Commissioner Belting moved and Commissioner Meehlhause seconded a
recommendation to the EDA that the EDA offer the property owner of 8379 Red Oak Drive a
0%deferred Mounds View Demolition Home Loan contingent upon a qualifying application.
Motion Carried: 5 Ayes, 0 Nays
C. Discuss Possible Change to Regular EDC Meeting Date/Time for 2012
The EDC decided not to change their regular meeting date and time for 2012.
6. REPORTS OF COMMISSIONERS
Commissioner Helgemoe mentioned that the Twin Cities North Chamber held their annual
holiday luncheon yesterday and that the proceeds from ticket sales were donated to a local
food shelf. He said that the Chamber's annual fundraising Gala will be held on Friday,
February 10, 2012.
Commissioner Meehlhause mentioned that he attended the El Loro ribbon cutting
ceremony,which included a luncheon providing many samples of the menu. He added that
• the business owners did a nice job of renovating the interior of the building.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Economic Development Commission
From: Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist
Item Title/Subject: Set 2012 Economic Development Priorities
Background
Early each year, the EDC discusses its priorities for the upcoming year. Below are the
EDC's 2011 priorities (in order of importance) adopted by the EDC on January 21, 2011:
1) Development/redevelopment along the County Rd 10 corridor
• Potential name change for County Rd 10
• Premium Stop Redevelopment Area
• Silver View Plaza
• Complete remaining trailway connections to businesses
• PAK building
• Select Senior Living
• Improve the aesthetics of properties in the County Rd 10 corridor
• Vacant BP gas station site
• Reconstruction of County Rd 10
2) Monitor and assist with Citywide housing issues and projects
3) Implement an informal business retention program
4) Continue budgeting to implement the Mounds View Branding Project
5) Monitor development plans for the TCAAP site in Arden Hills
6) Monitor Mounds View properties in transition
7) Skyline Motel redevelopment
8) Support the implementation of the Citywide Street& Utility Improvement Program
Discussion
The EDC reviewed the status of their 2011 priorities during the November 18, 2011 EDC
meeting. The discussion prompted two ideas for 2012, which were to better promote the
services offered by the Housing Resource Center and to increase focus on improving the
City's most blighted homes.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the EDC set its 2012 priorities. After adoption, staff will forward the
priorities to the EDA for review.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Economic Development Commission
From: Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist
Item Title/Subject: Revise Targeted Business List
Background
Chapter 7 (the Economic Development chapter)of the 2008 Mounds View Comprehensive
Plan includes the following statement: "In order to continuously refine and review its
objectives as economic conditions and realities change, the City, through the Economic
Development Commission (EDC) and/or the Economic Development Authority(EDA) will
annually update its list of targeted business categories."
Discussion
The EDC approved the following targeted business list in May 2008. A documented list can
serve as a business recruitment tool for the City.
• Specialty Retail
• o Hardware store
o Jewelry store
o Florist
• Big Box Retail
o Grocery store
• Professional Office/Services
o Medical or dental clinic
o Optometrist office
o Financial institutions
o Funeral home
• Sit-down Restaurants
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the EDC review and potentially update its targeted business list,
assuming that the EDC's business recruitment goals are to increase the City's tax base
with highest and best use development, to create high-wage jobs and to provide residents
with goods and services that are not currently available in Mounds View. Staff will forward
the EDC's 2012 targeted business list to the EDA.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Economic Development Commission
From: Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist
Item Title/Subject: Discuss County Road 10 Corridor Improvements
Background
On November 18, 2011, the EDC reviewed the 2006 Premium Stop Redevelopment Area
Study and made plans to discuss how the EDC would recommend using the EDA's
approximate $700,000 in available TIF funds for redevelopment purposes.
On January 3, 2012, the City Council discussed possible County Road 10 improvements
and enhancements and directed city staff to contact Ramsey County to inquire about grant
funds available for beautification projects. Staff spoke with Joe Lux, Planning Specialist
with Ramsey County Public Works, and he confirmed that there is no funding available from
the County for beautification projects along County Rd 10. The City Council also asked that
the EDC recommend a list of County Road improvements with associated cost estimates
• that could be implemented as early as this summer.
Discussion
Listed below are several County Road 10 improvements included within the City's Five-
Year Financial Plan for 2012-2016 (see attached pages 6&8 of the Five-Year Plan). The funding
for the improvements in the Five-Year Plan is separate from the approximate $700,000 in
unobligated TIF funds.
• Two intersection improvement projects are planned for 2012 (County Rd H, Silver Lake Rd).
• Two intersection improvement projects are planned for 2013 (County Rd I, Woodale Dr).
• Two trail segments (6 & 11) are planned for 2013.
• Gateway features for at total of$886,600 are planned for 2014.
• Median enhancements for $350,000 are planned for 2014.
There are also two pending senior citizen housing projects to be constructed along County
Road 10 (Select Senior Living and Coventry Senior Living). These projects would
significantly improve the image of the County Road 10 corridor.
The chart on the next page is a list of beautification ideas that city staff brainstormed, along
with the funding mechanisms and estimated costs to complete the improvements. The
estimated costs are initial investment costs and do not include ongoing maintenance.
Sources for the estimated costs are listed in the chart (see attached 2002 County Road 10
Redevelopment and Redevelopment Plan Preliminary Cost Estimates).

Administrator Review:
City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Economic Development Commission
From: Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist
Item Title/Subject: Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Presentation
by Finance Director Mark Beer
Introduction
On March 9th, Mounds View Finance Director Mark Beer will provide the EDC with a "TIF
101" presentation. Below are the definitions of TIF, a TIF District and what TIF can be used
for.
What is TIF? TIF is the ability to capture and use most of the increased local
property tax revenues from new development with a defined geographic area for a
defined period of time without approval of the other taxing jurisdictions.
What is a TIF District? A TIF District is a defined collection of parcels whose
increased value will be captured and used. A TIF District is the location where the
• "increment" is collected.
What can TIF be used for? TIF must be used towards costs associated with new
development on items such as the following:
• Land Acquisition
• Demolition and Relocation
• Site Improvements
• Utilities, Streets and Sidewalks
• Environmental Cleanup
• Parking
• Buildings(but only for housing or new Economic Development TIF Districts)
Background
As shown on the attached map, the City of Mounds View has four TIF Districts (Districts 1,
2, 3 and 5). Districts 1, 2 and 3 will be expiring (or decertifying) in the next few years.
Since there are unobligated TIF balances in each of the expiring districts, the EDA may use
the unobligated TIF funds for Economic Development purposes. Attached is a spreadsheet
showing Mounds View's unobligated TIF balances. Mark Beer will explain the spreadsheet
during the EDC meeting.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Economic Development Commission
From: Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist
Item Title/Subject: Discuss County Road 10 Corridor Improvements
Background
On November 18, 2011, the EDC reviewed the 2006 Premium Stop Redevelopment Area
Study and made plans to discuss how the EDC would recommend using the EDA's
approximate $700,000 in available TIF funds for redevelopment purposes.
On January 3, 2012, the City Council discussed possible County Road 10 improvements
and enhancements and directed city staff to contact Ramsey County to inquire about grant
funds available for beautification projects. Staff spoke with Joe Lux, Planning Specialist
with Ramsey County Public Works, and he confirmed that there is no funding available from
the County for beautification projects along County Rd 10. The City Council also asked that
• the EDC recommend a list of County Road improvements with associated cost estimates
that could be implemented as early as this summer.
On February 17, 2012, the EDC briefly discussed County Rd 10 beautification items but
tabled the discussion due to time limitations.
Discussion
Listed below are several County Road 10 improvements included within the City's Five-
Year Financial Plan for 2012-2016 (see attached pages 6 &8 of the Five-Year Plan). The
funding sources in the Five-Year Plan are separate from the approximate $700,000 in
unobligated TIF funds.
• Two intersection improvement projects are planned for 2012 (County Rd H, Silver Lake Rd).
• Two intersection improvement projects are planned for 2013 (County Rd I, Woodale Dr).
• Two trail segments (6 & 11) are planned for 2013.
• Gateway features for at total of$886,600 are planned for 2014.
• Median enhancements for $350,000 are planned for 2014.
There is also a senior citizen housing project that is supposed to break ground next month
along County Road 10 (Coventry Senior Living). This project would significantly improve
the image of the County Road 10 corridor.
March 9,2012 EDC Meeting
Item 5B—County Road 10 Beautification
• Page 2 of 2
Attached is a chart showing a list of beautification ideas that city staff brainstormed, along
with the funding mechanisms and estimated costs to complete the improvements. The
estimated costs are initial investment costs and do not include ongoing maintenance.
Sources for the estimated costs are listed in the chart(see attached 2002 County Road 10
Redevelopment and Redevelopment Plan Preliminary Cost Estimates).
Recommendation
Based on the information provided in this staff report and any additional ideas that the EDC
might have for beautifying County Road 10, staff recommends that the EDC create a
prioritized list of County Road 10 beautification improvements for the EDA to review at the
March 12th EDA meeting.
Respectfully submitted,

• cities and that cities use TIF by creating different types of TIF Districts. He said each type
of district has different rules and year limits. He provided an overview of Mounds View's
four TIF Districts. He explained how Tax Increment is calculated and he discussed how the
City's unobligated TIF funds could be used within Mounds View.

B. Discuss County Road 10 Corridor Improvements
Economic Development Specialist Heidi Steinmetz said that on January 3, 2012, the City

associated cost estimates that could be implemented as early as this summer. On February

unobligated TIF is about$900,000 and that any TIF amounts listed in the City's Five-Year
Financial Plan were already removed from the$900,000 figure. Ms. Steinmetz said that all
items in the Five-Year Plan related to County Rd 10 improvements are listed on page one of
the EDC's staff report for this morning's meeting.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Economic Development Commission
From: Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist
Item Title/Subject: Discuss Creating a Plan to Use the EDA's Unobligated TIF
Background
The EDC's top priority for 2012 is to "Create a plan for using the EDA's Unobligated Tax
Increment Financing (TIF)with the City of Mounds View". This priority was partly created in
response to the City Council's joint discussion with the EDC at the November 7, 2011,
Work Session that reaffirmed the City Council's commitment to Economic Development.
On March 9th, Finance Director Mark Beer provided the EDC with a basic TIF presentation
and explained how the City could use its unobligated TIF funds within the City over the next
few years.
• Discussion
Attached are the EDC's 2012 Priorities and the list of County Rd 10 beautification ideas that
the EDC prioritized on March 9th. The EDC could use these lists as a framework for
determining how to use the EDA's unobligated TIF within the City.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the EDC discuss how they want to create a plan for using the EDA's
unobligated TIF and that the EDC begin creating that plan during the April 20th EDC
meeting. The EDC will present the EDA with the plan at a future,joint EDC/EDA meeting.

Mounds View Business News April 2012
• Online Sales Tax—How Does it Affect Your Business?
Mounds View business owner Larry Lucast wants fellow business owners to contact their legislators to discuss the
importance of mandating Internet and catalog vendors to charge their customers sales tax. Larry owns Corvette
Specialties, located at 2558 County Road 10 in Mounds View. He and his staff hear regularly that customers will purchase
items online to avoid paying sales tax.
Contact information for State legislators that represent Mounds View:
Representative Tom Tillberry Senator Pam Wolf
Email: rep.tom.tillberry(a.house.mn Email: sen.pam.wolf@senate.mn
Phone: 651-296-5510 Phone: 651-296-2556
Nationally, any company that sells items online must charge sales tax in the states in which the business has a retail
physical presence. Although Minnesota law states that if you, as a business or individual, buy from an out-of-state vendor,
and are not charged sales tax, you must pay it to Minnesota. However, even though companies like Best Buy have to
charge sales tax in most states, Amazon has no retail stores, so they never have to charge sales tax.
The Federal government has proposed a law that requires big, online companies to charge sales tax, which would level
the playing field for small, local retailers. The proposed law actually gives local retailers a small advantage because they
would not have to charge sales tax on their out-of-state sales as long as total sales were less than $1 million. In Larry's
opinion, the proposed law would give small, local retailers a chance to grow, yet not become too big at the expense of
even smaller retailers.
For more information on this issue, please email Larry at Parts(a�CorvetteSpecialties.com and contact your legislators
today to discuss how online sales tax affects your business!

ULI Minnesota Offers "Navigating the New Norma" Workshop
Workshops for Elected Officials: "Navigating the New Normal"
ULI Minnesota has designed a workshop for cities aimed at elected and appointed officials,
interested in economic development and land use.The concept and format are practical and
replicable. One session has been scheduled for September and others are being planned. Below
is a brief summary.
Why these workshops?
ULI Minnesota recognized that it has a wealth of land use and development expertise to help its
municipalities attract new development, especially walkable, mixed use development.The
question was where to begin.A task force was formed to develop a set of recommendations.
The answer: Offer ULI's advice at a time and place of the city's choosing. Start by addressing
their questions about changes in the marketplace, how their cities can attract the development
they want, and how to develop private sector partnerships to get it done. The hope is that the
workshops build on the success of previous initiatives by the ULI Minnesota Regional Council of
Mayors and provide a two-way street for the public and private sectors to work collaboratively,to
learn from each other,and to build trust.The concept of the workshops has been well received.
(Click here for news article)
What are the workshops?
• ULI MN offers an interactive 2 hour workshop tailored for each city.
•The three part workshop is designed to foster a dialogue about the opportunities and challenges
inherent in a new economy based upon shifts in the market and changing demographics.
0 •The format permits developers,finance experts and municipal leaders to discuss what the
market will support versus what the city wants for its community and why.
•The workshop is perfect for a pre-Council or Planning Commission meeting work session.
•The elected officials choose the time and place.
•Click here for more information on the format of the workshops.
What is the cost of the workshops?
•The staff time for research and organization is supported by the Family Housing Fund and
Minnesota Housing.
• Host communities are only asked to arrange for a meeting location, cover printing costs,and
provide refreshments for participants.
What does the city council get from the workshops?
Workshop participants will develop a better understanding of:
•the impact of the'new normal'on their city's future growth patterns, demographic trends, and
market preferences,
•their city's household demographics, shifts in household moves, housing types, and labor and
commute patterns with a focus on strategies to support a full range of housing choices
connected to transportation options and jobs, and
•strategies for how to position their community to attract the best quality development.
What does ULI MN get from the workshop?
ULI MN advances the ULI mission at the local level in a setting that builds trust between public
officials and the real estate development community.

A. Discuss Creating a Plan to Use the EDA Unobligated TIF
Economic Development Specialist Heidi Steinmetz reminded the EDC that they approved
this item back in February as their top 2012 priority.
Commissioner Meehlhause stated that his number one priority for using the EDA's
unobligated TIF would be to redevelop the Premium Stop Redevelopment Area,followed by
the PAK building/Simon's property. He added that the last priority should be using the funds
towards the City's residential Street Project.
• Commissioner Larson stated that his top priority would be to use the funds on demolishing
vacant and blighted housing in Mounds View.

• Commissioner Helgemoe mentioned that the Johnson property/former trailer hitch location
should remain on the EDC's list of properties to be redeveloped. He emphasized that
business retention should be the EDC and FDA's number one priority.
Commissioner Belting said that his top priority would be to use the unobligated TIF funds
towards business development. He added that he'd also support improving the City's
vacant housing scenario.
Commissioner Meehlhause mentioned that the County Road 10 trail way system should be
completed. Chair Johnson agreed that unobligated TIF should be used towards completing
p 9 9
the trail way system before using it on the residential Street Project.
Ms. Steinmetz suggested the idea of using unobligated TIF toward the reconstruction of
Mustang Drive and Mustang Circle in the industrial park that is located behind the Skyline
Motel.
Commissioner Meehlhause concluded that the only way to lessen the property tax burden
on residents is to recruit more businesses into Mounds View, so he feels that the
unobligated TIF should go towards Economic Development.
After much discussion,the EDC summarized their priority list as follows for using the EDA's
unobligated TIF:
1) Business Retention
a. Mustang Drive & Mustang Circle
• b. Infrastructure for Businesses
c. Silver View Plaza
2) Promote New Business
a. Property Acquisition & Demolition
3) Vacant Housing
4) Complete County Road 10 Trail Way Segments
Commissioners Belting and Helgemoe stated their support for using a portion of unobligated
TIF towards the reconstruction of Mustang Drive and Mustang Circle due to the EDC's
business retention priority.
6. REPORTS OF COMMISSIONERS
Commissioner Meehlhause reported that a construction management company is planning
to purchase the Thrifty Car Rental building.
Commissioner Paron mentioned that Linders is now open.

New Brighton Saxon Ford on Saturday, May 19th. If potential customers test drive a vehicle
and complete a survey, $20 is donated to the Irondale booster club of the customer's
choice.
• Chair Johnson also asked about recent copper thefts at vacant Mounds View commercial
properties. Ms. Steinmetz confirmed several reports.

Background
Mounds View's oldest industrial park is located behind the Skyline Motel on Old Hwy 8.
Below is an aerial image of the industrial park.

xr
The roads within the industrial park are Mustang Drive and Mustang Circle. Both roads are
in desperate need of improvements. The two main issues delaying the reconstruction of
these roads are land acquisition for stormwater facilities and funding.
The Mounds View Public Works Department has begun the process of selecting an
engineering consultant to assist in the pavement and stormwater improvements. Upon
approval of the City Council, the consultant will perform preliminary design and analysis,
including topographic surveying, proposed improvements, cost estimates and funding
sources, identifying project issues, etc.

County Road 10 Name Change Meeting—Tuesday, July 24, 2012, at 7:30am
Over a year ago, in May 2011, the City Councils of Mounds View, Blaine and Spring Lake
, ;,- ter-
. Park decided to form a citizen taskforce to study the idea of
• � ..
naming County Road 10. Each city made appointments to the task force. The Mounds
View •City Council appointed residents Helen Chambers and Joan Bosard and business
' 'O representative Jason Helgemoe from Western Bank.
The task force met on February 29, March 21 and again on April 11, 2012, in
conjunction with the Mounds View Business Council. The task force discussed its purpose, desired outcomes,
anticipated duration and reviewed corridor background information and previous work efforts. After considering
some guidelines for what the name should be or represent, numerous suggestions were made and subsequently, the
task force voted for the name Northtown Boulevard.
Businesses located along County Road 10 are invited to attend a meeting at Mounds View City Hall on Tuesday,
July 24, 2012, at 7:30am to learn about the proposed naming of County Road 10 in Mounds View, Spring Lake Park
and Blaine, MN. The City Councils of Mounds View, Spring Lake Park and Blaine support the name that the task
force has proposed. To formalize the name change and approve a Joint Powers Agreement among the three cities,
each city will need to adopt a resolution and forward it to Anoka and Ramsey Counties and MnDOT.
• We look forward to seeing you at City Hall on July 24th at 7:30am! Please RSVP to Heidi Steinmetz at 763-717-4029

A. Discuss the Use of TIF for Mustang Drive Improvements
Economic Development Specialist Steinmetz provided a summary of her staff report.
Commissioner Belting mentioned that during the EDC's tour of Bauer Welding back in July
2011, the company had mentioned that Mustang Drive was an issue for them.
Commissioner Belting added that the road is dilapidated to say the least. He asked if city
staff has an idea of the amount of TIF(a portion of the project cost)that might be needed to
assist with this project. Ms. Steinmetz answered that city staff does not have those figures
yet.

Chair Johnson noted that the City's Street and Utility Improvement Program does not
include this area.
Commissioner Meehlhause asked city staff what the ballpark cost would be for this project.
City staff answered that they do not know the total project cost, yet land acquisition for the
creation of stormwater facilities could significantly increase the project cost.
Commissioner Meehlhause said he would support using some TIF towards the project but
not all of it. Commissioner Larson agreed.
Ms. Steinmetz noted that city staff would provide the EDC with detailed project costs at a
later date.
Motion/Second: Chair Johnson moved and Commissioner Meehlhause seconded a
recommendation to the City Council that it consider using a portion of the FDA's unobligated
TIF fund balance to assist in the cost to reconstruct Mustang Drive and Mustang Circle.
Motion Carried: 5 Ayes, 0 Nays
B. Discuss Vision for County Road 10
Ms. Steinmetz reminded the EDC that the City Council discussed this item at the July 2,
2012, Work Session. She said the City Council asked the EDC to focus on two main
issues: County Road 10 and vacant/blighted housing. Ms. Steinmetz mentioned that the
• vacant/blighted housing issue will be on the EDC's next agenda.
Ms. Steinmetz stated that the City Council has asked the EDC to create a short term and a
long term vision for County Road 10.
Chair Johnson said that she doesn't feel that it's the EDC's role to create a vision for the
city.
She added that the EDC could continue to make recommendations as they have done in
the past. She said the EDC has provided the Council with plans and priorities,the EDC has
participated in studies and workshops and the EDC has visited with businesses. She said
the EDC could provide the Council with overall templates and input. She reiterated that it's
the City Council role to develop a vision of their short and long term goals for County Road
10. She does not agree with hiring a visioning consultant because it would not be the best
use of city funds.
Commissioner Belting agreed with Chair Johnson. He said that renaming County Road 10
would be a big improvement. He added that a total reconstruction of County Road 10 would
be somewhat out of the City's control because Ramsey County owns the roadway.
Commissioner Meehlhause agreed that it's the City Council's responsibility, with the
assistance of staff, to create a vision for County Road 10.
Commissioner Larson said the businesses and residents should be consulted for what they
would like to see along County Road 10. He added that the city should focus on
redevelopment around the two intersections on County Road 10(County Road H and Silver
Lake Road) that will be reconstructed in the next few years.

Chair Johnson provided the EDC with the following draft vision for County Road 10:
"County Road 10/Northtown Boulevard is a divided county road with trails that provides the
ability to safely move around through the city. As the main corridor for the City of Mounds
View, it contains an eclectic mix of businesses and housing that serves the residents and
attracts businesses and guests to our community.This mix may include restaurants,senior
housing, small retail, medium retail, services, parks, trails, government services and a
library."
Commissioner Helgemoe arrived at this time (8:05am).
Commissioner Belting suggested that the EDC review the 2002 County Road 10
redevelopment plan to see if there are any ideas in that plan that could still be implemented
today. Commissioner Meehlhause added that the EDC should also review the 2006
Premium Stop area study.
The EDC decided that they would review the two latest studies for County Road 10 (the
2002 and 2006 studies) before discussing County Road 10 again at their next meeting.
6. REPORTS OF COMMISSIONERS
Chair Johnson thanked Mike,the camera guy, for his work videotaping the EDC meetings.
Today is Mike's last date working for the City of Mounds View.
Commissioner Meehlhause updated the EDC that the Thrifty Car Rental building is still for
sale and that a non-profit dentist will be purchasing the former"Let's Get Graphic"building.
Chair Johnson commented that she attended the Allina Medical Transportation open house
and that it was a nice event.
7. REPORTS OF STAFF
City staff provided updates on the following items: May 9th Mounds View Business Council
meeting, TCAAP, Mounds View business news, available business Sites in Mounds View,
upcoming events and the City's new eFeedback tool called "My Mounds View".

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Economic Development Commission
From: Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist
Item Title/Subject: • Review 2002 County Road 10 Redevelopment& Redevelopment Plan
• Review 2006 Premium Stop Redevelopment Area Study
Background
At the July 2, 2012, City Council Work Session, the City Council directed the EDC to create
short and long term visions for County Road 10. The EDC discussed this at their July 20,
2012, meeting and determined that the EDC's role is to provide input to the City Council but
not to create the vision for County Road 10.
Discussion
At the July 20, 2012, EDC meeting, the EDC asked to review the two most recent
redevelopment plans/studies for County Road 10, which are the following:
• Highway 10 Reconstruction and Revitalization Plan —August 2002
• Premium Stop Redevelopment Area Study — December 2006
The City has implemented a large component of the 2002 plan, which was the County
Road 10 trail way system, including lighting and benches.
Hard copies of the 2002 plan were delivered to the EDC earlier this week. Digital copies of
the 2006 study are attached.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the EDC review the 2002 plan and the 2006 study and provide a
recommendation to the City Council about the process of creating a vision for County Road
10.
Respectfully Submitted,
Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist

Redevelopment Master Plan
The Premium Stop Redevelopment Area plan envisions the creation of a compact, walkable commercial node
with a mix of retail, office and housing. The development will connect to community amenities along County
Road 10 as well as existing adjacent neighborhoods, local parks and new multi-use trail, neighborhood schools
in the City, all while providing a pedestrian friendly environment.
The master plan proposes a development that will be tied together by a new multi-use trail along County Road
10 as well as a series of new pedestrian connections providing access to the redevelopment site and creating
a backbone for internal circulation. The proposed commercial properties that front County Road 10 will define
the edge of the corridor and provide necessary services to the neighborhood and community as a whole. The
commercial uses will be backed by a series of shared surface parking lots that will serve as parking for the
commercial and office uses, as well as provide overflow public parking during events and weekends. The
proposed housing within the redevelopment project site will include housing that blends with the traditional
surrounding neighborhoods providing affordable options for current residents and free up housing for new
residents.
As a direct result of conversations with City staff, a set of draft goals was created for the Premium Stop Gas
Station Area Redevelopment Plana and are listed below:
. Goal#1
Achieve an appropriate development project that includes business, residential and mixed uses along
County Road 10. The business/commercial uses should frame the intersections and buffer the residential
uses from the impacts of County Road 10. The development should also be based on real market
conditions and achievable market strategies.
Goal#2
Require the development to reflect and reinforce the positive and strong architectural elements that
represent the desired character and image of the community. The development should also be designed in
a manner to be compatible with adjacent developments.
Goal#3
Extend the urban design elements and amenities found along the proposed County Road 10 multi-use trail,
demonstrating consistency and compatibility with the existing improvements found along the County Road
10 corridor and visually connecting the site to its surroundings.
Goal#4
Use the urban design elements to create a streetscape system that emphasizes a sense of human scale
and balance between pedestrian and automobile space along County Road 10 and within the development.
Enhance pedestrian connections from the redevelopment site to the County Road 10 corridor and to
adjacent residential neighborhoods.
Goal#5
Require new development to provide adequate and appropriately screened off-street parking.

Redevelopment Staging
Projectg g
The redevelopment master plan for the Premium Stop Redevelopment Area has been designed in a way to
be phased in over time as parcels located in the redevelopment site become available. The master plan has
been defined as short-, mid- and long-term redevelopment potential, which will allow the plan to be flexible
and redevelopment to occur regardless of which parcels become available for development. In addition, the
master plan will allow for existing buildings to remain as part of the overall redevelopment of the Premium Stop
Redevelopment site as long as these buildings were altered in their location and their exterior appearance to
be in keeping with the site plan and design guidelines articulated in the master plan.
Implementation Strategy: Planned Unit Development Overlay District
To accomplish the goals of the Premium Stop Redevelopment Study, the city will consider an overlay zoning
district that would provide standards and procedures beyond what is contained in the zoning ordinance for
the underlying districts along the Highway 10 corridor. This Planned Unit Development Overlay District, to be
developed in detail by city staff and consultants in conjunction with the Planning Commission and City Council,
could include the following:
1)All projects on property within a certain defined area along the corridor- perhaps 300 feet from the right-
of-way, or another distance to be determined -would be approved only upon application for a planned
40 unit development (PUD) in accordance with the standards for PUDs in the Mounds View zoning code, the
additional standards of the overlay district, and the goals of the corridor study.
2)The uses allowed within the overlay will include all permitted, conditional, and accessory uses in the
underlying district, plus other uses integrated into the project, upon a finding by the City Council that such uses
within the overall project further the goals of the corridor study. Specifically, mixed use projects, integrating
retail, office, and residential uses both horizontally and vertically will be encouraged.
3) Site planning standards within the overlay district will include requirements for building placement close to
the street, parking to the side and rear, maintenance of a street edge by means of a fence, railing, or hedge,
and screening of loading areas and trash receptacles from view of public streets, the front yard of neighboring
properties, and adjacent residential areas. Setbacks within the overlay district will be modified from the
standards in the underlying district to encourage this building placement through the use of build-to lines,
reduced or zero side setbacks where appropriate, and other considerations to implement the overall intent of
the corridor study.
4)Architectural standards within the overlay district will be more rigorous than in the underlying district,
including increased use of durable building materials such as brick, stone, and glass, and reduced use or
prohibition of wood, sheet metal, and plain concrete block
Commercial Development
The desired outcome for the commercial development on the Premium Stop Redevelopment Area is to
maintain and improve the commercial area as a vital retail and service location along County Road 10. The
main objectives for the commercial development are as follows:
411 1. Identify and recruit business types that will be successful in this location and support land use densities
and values that make redevelopment financially feasible. This may require authorization of some
16 City of Mounds View
'Premium Stop Redevelopment Area Study
•
flexibility from the current zoning standards related to setbacks, density, parking, open space and building
height.
2. Strive to retain existing local businesses when possible, or to relocate them into places that will allow
them to continue to contribute to the prosperity of the community. Identify and support the location of
businesses that will contribute to the drawing power of the redevelopment site.
3. Implement strategies to reduce parking requirements, including reduced parking ratios, creation of private/
public shared parking, and trails/sidewalks.
Residential Development
The desired outcome for the residential development within the Premium Stop Redevelopment Area is
to provide the City of Mounds View a series of new housing options that currently do not exist within the
community that relate in character and scale to the adjacent neighborhoods.
The main objectives for the residential development are as follows:
1. Provide additional housing alternatives in close proximity to the County Road 10 that will fill a need in the
• current housing market.
2. Successfully integrate the new housing into the surrounding older established neighborhoods.
3. Require high quality community design and construction standards.
Architectural and Site Design Guidelines
Site architecture has the most significant impact on site character. Buildings define edges and spaces,
establish a level of quality, and serve as inherent destinations for pedestrians moving adjacent to and through
the site. They must therefore be well designed, relate to surrounding uses and utilize high quality materials.
The Premium Stop Redevelopment Area will benefit from architecture that is consistent in quality and relates to
adjacent buildings throughout the County Road 10 corridor. The proposed new buildings will be located along
County Road 10 and should employ high quality materials such as stone, brick, and masonry with metal, can-
vas and stone accents.
Basic Architectural Principles and Overall Site Character:
• Define spaces with buildings, not with parking lots.
• Create a "Downtown"character on the site that will reinforce a pedestrian friendly environment through
the site location of buildings close to the property lines, use of high quality building materials and building
façade articulation.
• • Create building facades and entrances that are interesting and inviting.
• Accomplish a level of consistency between commercial, office and residential buildings through similar
detailing, materials, other building materials and context.
City of Mounds View 17
Premium Stop Redevelopment Area Study
Commercial Buildings
The new commercial buildings proposed on the Premium Stop
Redevelopment Area site should be designed to be consistent in A +�
character with adjacent uses. Design elements of the buildings _r .; _ -; = `
should include:
• Create dual(front and rear) building facades and well definedu .,
entrances that are interesting and inviting, allowing people to
access the businesses from the street or parking lot. Utilize
covered entrances and window canopies to reinforce a
pedestrian scale.
• Columnar forms at key building corners. - .
• Variety in building planes both vertically and horizontally.
• Utilize high quality materials, including stone, brick,
decorative masonry units, prudent use of EIFS (Exterior _
Insulation and Finish Systems), and a variety of ornamental �~�
• metals.
• Commercial buildings should maximize frontage along
County Road 10 and should be 1 to 2 stories tall to create
a desired character along County Road 10 and to frame the
site. "est '111;'io„
• Setbacks for the commercial buildings should be 5' to 10'
max. for buildings without outdoor dining components and 15'
to 20'max. for buildings with a outdoor dining component. 7
Existing commercial buildings that may remain within the
redevelopment project area must be compatible with the master
plan for the overall site. This will require existing buildings to
undergo exterior architectural renovations that would result in k
an exterior image consistent with newly constructed commercial >>.,_
buildings in the area. The architectural elements described for ' ., + * ..
new commercial buildings should be used as a guide to retrofitting ,. .

5. EDC BUSINESS
A. Review 2002 County Road 10 Redevelopment and Redevelopment Plan
The EDC asked to review this plan prior to discussing a vision for County Road 10. Ms.
Steinmetz stated that the 2002 plan was a reconstruction plan for County Road 10, which
included drawings of the different ways County Road 10 could be reconstructed. The plan
was created by consultants.
Commissioner Belting stated that the 2002 plan is still a great framework and starting point
for redeveloping County Road 10. He reiterated that he has been a proponent from day one
Draft EDC Minutes
August 17,2012
Page 2 of 3
on getting County Road 10 redone and that it is still his number one goal. His number two
goal is to rename Country Road 10. He mentioned that the positive changes to Ramsey
County Highway 96 can also occur on County Road 10. He suggested that the City should
meet with its Ramsey County Commissioner to discuss the City's concerns and goals for
County Road 10, in addition to renaming County Road 10.
Commissioner Meehlhause said that a positive aspect of the 2002 plan was in regards to
aesthetics and that the trailway project is one thing in the plan that was completed. He said
the troubling aspect of the 2002 plan related to changing the actual nature of the roadway
itself,changing the speed limit and straightening the intersections,which he does not see as
realistic. He added that the 2002 plan provided high-level ideas but not specifics on how the
City might move forward.
Chair Johnson commented that she liked how the 2002 plan separated the corridor into ten
sections that provided advantages and disadvantages of what could be done in each
section,which in itself was a vision for the corridor. She stated that the City needs to decide
what it wants to be,such as the type of"hub"it wants to be. She added that the City doesn't
have the power to do road improvements on a road owned by Ramsey County. She
suggested that the City needs to figure out how to make Mounds View a destination
community. She also said that since County Road 10 diagonally intersects the community,it
will be difficult to redevelop because all of the lots fronting the roadway are triangular in
shape. She added that perhaps the City Council could assist with reconfiguring the lots into
larger, developable parcels.
B. Review 2006 Premium Stop Redevelopment Area Study
The EDC asked to review this plan prior to discussing a vision for County Road 10. Ms.
Steinmetz stated that the 2006 study was concentrated on a particular "block" of County
Road 10, located between Woodale Drive and County Road H2. The study was completed
by consultants. She added that this plan was less of a reconstruction plan and more of a
redevelopment plan, which included redevelopment concepts.
Commissioner Meehlhause preferred this study because it provided examples of how
properties could be redeveloped. Chair Johnson agreed that the 2006 study provides
examples of how to redevelop a specific site.
Chair Johnson said that if the EDA/City Council wants redevelopment to occur in Mounds
View, they need to provide assistance towards the projects. Commissioner Meehlhause
referenced his takeaway from the June ULI Workshop,which was that the City needs to be
proactive and control the land in order to achieve successful projects.
Commissioner Larson suggested that the City could concentrate its efforts on the two
County Road 10 intersections that Ramsey County will be reconstructing in the next couple
of years. He said the City could provide the County with its plan for those intersections.
Commissioner Belting added that the City's participation could be as simple as adding
colored pavers in the intersections.
Commissioner Wagner-Harkonen said she would not feel comfortable creating a vision for
the corridor unless a task force was created including Council members. Commissioner
Meehlhause agreed.
Motion/Second: Commissioner Larson moved and Commissioner Belting seconded a
recommendation to the EDA to adopt the following process for creating a vision for County
Road 10:

1) EDA to review 2002 County Road 10 Redevelopment and Redevelopment Plan and 2006

6) EDA to review the 2008 Mounds View Comprehensive Plan
Motion Carried: 6 Ayes, 0 Nays
6. REPORTS OF COMMISSIONERS
Commissioner Meehlhause provided an update on "the PAK building". He said the building
was sold and that"Tires N More"will be occupying the building. The Planning Commission
recently approved a Conditional Use Permit so that small auto repair could be done at the
property. He said the business is established and the owners operate three other tire stores
in Fridley, St. Paul and Minneapolis.
