A. Review Crossroad Point Development Area Visioning Process (Oral Report)
Planning Associate Heller discussed the Crossroad Point Development Area with the
Commission. She explained the site was expanded when the City purchased the previous Taiko
Restaurant and Robert’s Sports Bar last year, which are adjacent to the Premium Stop lot that
was already City owned. The site was approximately 4.25 acres, and the City was proposing to
vacate Greenfield Street to allow the site to become one contiguous lot. The City was hoping to
have a mixed use on the site in the future.

Associate Heller reviewed the Council’s brainstorming session from a recent work session
meeting regarding Mounds View’s priorities and goals for the site. Strengths and weaknesses for
the City and the site were discussed in detail. She commented a consultant was working with
Council and staff. This consultant would be taking the comments from the recent work session
meeting and would be drawing up plans for the Council to review in the future. She reported the
City would be holding an Open House for the public to review these plans in the near future.
Commissioner Carvelli-Yu encouraged staff to notify commercial bankers regarding the
potential development options for this property.
Commissioner Love suggested public comments be gathered at the proposed Open House, for
Council consideration.
Associate Heller agreed it would be important to gather public input.

What type of development (residential, retail, office, etc.) would you LIKE to see on the Crossroad
Pointe site? In other words, what would you shop at, work at, visit, or live in at this site?
Stage 1 of a long range, comprehensive plan to create a walkable downtown with amenities for
people along the life span
Chiropractic wellness center
May be best to do nothing , until another commercial space is put to use along the immediate
Co. Rd. 10 corridor
Mixed use of residential and commercial/office, not necessarily vertical mixed use
Include sizeable green space usable for residents, possibly public space
Maintain N/S access aligned with Greenfield; not convinced vacating street is desirable
Structured parking please, limit surface parking lots
Restaurant will blow up parking, avoid unless you have a quality tenant and long term lease
Prefer residential
I would really like a good, moderately priced restaurant-a Davanni’s would be perfect
Restaurants, office
I would rather have more retail and office space. Things that close at a decent time and won’t
produce as much noise as Roberts did.
Greenspace, pond(s), fountain, walking path, garden. Do not over crowd.
Keep high end quick food service, i.e. Chipotle, Starbucks
Restaurant, retail
I like townhomes
Small restaurants—St. Paul has wonderful little shops to eat
Combination of residential and retail. Something like a Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, or the new
“mini” Target
I would like mixed use—nice apartments, business, retail, restaurants, café, ice cream
Senior apartments are good

What type of development (residential, retail, office, etc.) would you NOT LIKE to see on the
Crossroad Pointe site? In other words, what would you NOT shop at, work at, visit, or live in at this
site?
Another car-centered plan. We need a pedestrian-centered design that doesn’t discriminate
against those without cars-children, elderly
We specifically do not want housing, certainly not high density housing that is going to flood the
area with people and traffic
Fast food restaurants
Large surface parking lots
Office space OK with no retail
Senior apartments. We need to attract more young families
I’d be very cautious about an office complex. Townhome/senior living/small restaurant would
be much better
I would rather not have multifamily. I feel that will increase crime and decrease my property
value. Townhomes wouldn’t be as bad. No more senior living!
No burger fast foot
No low income housing
No small retail tailored to unique markets, i.e. guitar sales, corvette store—keep more broad—
floral, gift, cell phone, hair salon
More multifamily units
No more drugstores!
No chain stores
Mounds View doesn’t seem to be able to keep shops more than a few months. Please not
another complex or other rental which brings in more crime
Office space does not seem to be occupied
No townhomes
No bars
No health club
No cheap apartments
What other types of amenities would you like to see developed on the Crossroad Pointe site?
Underground parking to allow for more green space at ground level
Good sidewalk connections
Well-designed “front door” presence on all public streets
Park, larger community center (similar to New Brighton’s Eagle Nest)
Hardware store
Park & garden for different events, weddings, farmers market, concerts
More community space. No real parks near area. No green space near area either
Seating around fountain
Many trees and gardens

I like storefront with apartments/condos on top
General Comments?
Young families are looking for amenities. The 5-minute walk contains the middle school grounds,
movie theatre, drug stores. I especially appreciate the wide view.
Thanks for keeping the neighbors involved.
I like the idea of residential, especially if the senior living building is put in. It seems there are
many vacant retail areas already. Would like to see those filled or redeveloped later on before
adding more retail that could potentially sit vacant. Since so many retail facilities have failed in
the past, it would be nice to see the area have a long term use.
I would like to see something unique with character that would stand out from the rest. Give it a
small town feel.
Whatever is done, the entrance should not be on H2. When turning left from 10, if someone
decides to turn in, they will stop traffic and cause potential traffic issue as cars try to clear the
intersection.
Mounds View Square has become a discount haven—it attracts the wrong shoppers. Any retail
store or restaurant should be run by the other chains.
Months ago I learned that Kozlaks Royal Oaks had lost its place in Arden Hills and mentioned to
someone at the City (don’t remember who) that City should approach Kozlak about coming to
Mounds View. What a great asset. Don’t think City ever followed up.
Whichever developer is chosen needs to have tenants/businesses lined up so the spaces do not
sit empty.
I would like Greenfield cut off from this development—makes property larger and reduces
traffic on our street. This development will directly impact our street. I am concerned about
traffic & H2 intersection. H2&10 needs improvement. The angle makes it difficult to see and the
light is slow going from H2 to 10.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Planning Commission
From: Heidi Heller, Planning Associate
Item Title/Subject: County Road 10 Corridor Discussion
The corridor continues to be the City Council’s priority and the Planning Commission has
been reviewing the Zoning Code in order to better promote and accommodate
development along County Road 10.
The Commission has now amended the City Code to change the requirements for ground
signs on properties that are on the Corridor. The Code was changed to lower the allowed
heights and require higher quality design materials, but the signs can be closer to County
Road 10. Our discussion began by focusing on creating a Corridor Overlay District in
order to give more flexibility to new projects on the corridor. The City is willing to be
flexible on requirements such as setbacks, parking, density and height, but the City also
wants projects that are high quality.
I have included the chapter in the Envisioning Better Communities book about
transforming highway commercial strips. None of the highways talked about in this
chapter are as wide or fast as County Road 10, but there are some ideas and photos of
good and not-so-good streetscapes and buildings.
Recommendation
Continue the discussion about a County Road 10 Corridor District Overlay that would
promote and support development on the corridor.
Sincerely,
Heidi Heller, Planning Associate

Item Title/Subject: Crossroad Pointe Development Area
Discussion:
On January 27, 2014, the City hosted an open house for residents to see three concept
ideas that Stantec, our planning consultants, put together for the city-owned four acre site
now known as “Crossroad Pointe.” This open house also gave attendees a chance to
comment on the three ideas, offer any other suggestions, and answer some questions about
the site in general. We received the tallied results of the open house comments from the
Stantec team. There was no consensus of what anyone would like to see, or not see, on the
site. The next step will be for Stantec to develop concept plans that show what uses could
be feasible in Mounds View, on this site.
Respectfully submitted,

Whatever is done, the entrance should not be on H2. When turning left from 10, if someone
decides to turn in, they will stop traffic and cause potential traffic issue as cars try to clear the
intersection.
Mounds View Square has become a discount haven—it attracts the wrong shoppers. Any retail
store or restaurant should be run by the other chains.
Months ago I learned that Kozlaks Royal Oaks had lost its place in Arden Hills and mentioned to
someone at the City (don’t remember who) that City should approach Kozlak about coming to
Mounds View. What a great asset. Don’t think City ever followed up.
Whichever developer is chosen needs to have tenants/businesses lined up so the spaces do not
sit empty.
I would like Greenfield cut off from this development—makes property larger and reduces
traffic on our street. This development will directly impact our street. I am concerned about
traffic & H2 intersection. H2&10 needs improvement. The angle makes it difficult to see and the
light is slow going from H2 to 10.
