These common features come in the form of related architectural ■ treatments, streetscape elements, and site planning guide- lines. This manual sets forth the vision for the overall design and character of the Village at St. Anthony. The manual contains ■ guidelines for site design, architecture, streetscape, signs, lighting and landscaping that have guided the design of the ■ General Concept Plan and will continue to steer the imple- mentation phases of development. The intent of the guidelines is to establish a level of quality ■ for the all of the design elements within the development. The manual provides representative photos and graphics of ■ landscaping, lighting, signage, and other design elements, ■ based on local and national sources that illustrate the quality that is to be achieved at the Village at St. Anthony. This ■ manual should be used as a tool by the City to evaluate de- sign elements and as a resource for landowners to achieve ■ a consistent design character and level of quality. It is not the intent of this manual to require future improvements to ■ be exactly like the samples shown. ■ ■ ■ ■ August, 2003 iii ■ ■ ■ ■ CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION ■ THE STUDYAREA Frulle' Ne.v ..

Silver Lake - - - . . The entire Northwest Quadrant comprises 15% of the total ■ area of the City of St.Anthony Village and contains the entire cross section of uses present in the city and can be broken ■ into three distinct sections. The north section is a 70 acre, . park-like area that has been operated by Salvation Army as a camp site and conference facility for over 75 years. The middle section is made up of Silver Lake, an approximately 75 acre body of water, and a small neighborhood of single family homes along the south shore of the lake. The south section—the subject of this document—currently contains a broad mix of uses including the 330,000 square foot, largely vacant Apache Plaza mall, a Cub food store, an apartment ■ complex of about 140 units, as well as a sizeable number of . office, commercial and retail uses. ■ Q Study Area ■ August, 2003 1 ■ CHAPTER 11 THE PLANNING PROCESS In 2000, the City of St. Anthony Village began to proactively • Represent a broad cross-section of community opinion; pursue a planning process for the redevelopment of the North- • Serve as the primary working group for the Northwest west Quadrant.

The role of the steering committee was guided by the Master Framework Plan. This General Con- to: cept Plan will be implemented through an approved PUD District. The PUD District will allow the construction of a mixed-use urban village development that takes advantage ■ of existing natural features and amenities like Silver Lake and creates connections to the surrounding community. ■ 2 Village at St. Anthony Framework Manual ■ ■ ■ INTRODUCTION ■ GENERAL CONCEPT PLAN • The Village at St.Anthony project envisions the creation of a ■ mixed-use urban village on a 50-acre site dominated by the nearly vacant Apache Plaza mall.A compact,walkable neigh- borhood will mix a variety of housing types with retail and commercial uses.The development will connect to the exist- ing adjacent neighborhood and provide a transit friendly en- vironment. The proposed neighborhood will be tied together by two major ■ elements. The first is the creation of a central roadway flow- ing east-west through the site (an extension of 39th Street). This new roadway will be enhanced by streetscape elements ® and transit improvements.The second key feature is the cen- tral park facility that will serve the dual purpose of park and ® open space amenity and significant water quality treatment. ■ Neighborhood, street front retail uses will line the new cen- tral roadway. Their economic success will be supported by the draw of customers to the existing Cub Food store and a new, large retail anchor. The proposed housing will include ■ several types that are not currently offered in the community, providing options for current residents and freeing up exist- ing housing for new families. The design of the entire devel- opment will be subject to this comprehensive Design Frame- work Manual, enforced through the PUD. ■ The specific land uses included in the General Concept Plan are described in Chapter 3. ■ ■ August, 2003 3 ■ ■ ■ ■ CHAPTER 1 ■ CONSISTENCY WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN • The development maximizes the potential of existing ■ infrastructure, buildings, facilities and development The City's Comprehensive Plan identifies the Apache Plaza centers, particularly along existing transportation area as a commercial redevelopment opportunity and states corridors. ■ that the City desires to take an active role in guiding its de- .

ANTHONY IDENTITY . The Village at St. Anthony is a mixed-use regional hub offer- ing residential and commercial opportunities to St. Anthony ■ visitors and residents. The Village has its foundations in the economic and natural history of St. Anthony Village, drawing ■ from a local diversity of presettlement ecosystems, the his- toric cultivation of flowers in the area, and the village history of the City. ` ■ ,��a ar�WSii � Historical Context ■ The City of St. Anthony Village was incorporated in 1946, and began to grow very quickly as residents abandoned farm- N ■ ing and took to a more urban lifestyle. Early city councils were occupied with the work of forming the new village. They ■ undertook land use planning, sewer and water service plan- ning, and street construction. The Village, as it is widely ■ known, lives on today in leafy residential areas, parkways, and neighborhood parks. 'I a+.nlM The Village at St. Anthony rec- ognizes this village character by establishing a main street ■ commercial area, complete with ornamental lighting and edes- trian friendly streets and side- r: + walks; and by including high quality residential buildings flanked by trees and placed ad- jacent to narrow streets. ■ August, 2003 5 ■ ■ CHAPTER 2 Ecological Context The City sits on the boundary between the Anoka Sand Plain ■ and the Saint Croix Moraines. Ecosystem diversity increases naturally at such boundary lines; but St.Anthony can be con- sidered even more diverse, as each of the ecosystems it straddles has inherent diversity within its boundaries. The Anoka Sand Plain is a well drained, dry upland, pockmarked with glacial depressions and tunnel valleys and flanked by e terraces descending to the Mississippi River. It is a mosaic of plant communities, changing with slight differences in soil moisture and sun exposure. The Saint Croix Moraines tran- sition from small steep hills to level or rolling plains to deep stream-cut ravines. Glacial drift is relatively thin, exposing ■ bedrock outcrops in some areas, and the soil is generally richer and more diverse than on the sand plain. The ex- treme microclimate changes across these two ecosystems ` can range from hot dry sandy uplands to cool stream bot- toms meandering between rock outcrops. Vegetation is resultantly diverse. The Village at St. Anthony recognizes local ecosystem diversity by incorpo- rating a variety of landscape experi- ences into the central park, and by se- . lecting a variety of flowering trees, shrubs, and perennials to add a diver- sity of color throughout the site. e 6 Village at St. Anthony Framework Manual IDENTITY Economic Context Early on, the City was primarily agricul- tural, its ecosystem diversity allowing a rF great variety in agricultural practices. It . was particularly well known for the culti- vation of flowers. The area was a major center for greenhouse operations. The Village at St.Anthony recognizes the historic prevalence of flower cultivation by incorporating a variety of native and cultivated flowers to provide year Iona ■ floral color throughout the site. lir, I .V �1—iL II Overall Identity The Village at St.Anthony creates a floral village, providing �I,„�...;:w:,!Ldnl•,dIY° commercial and residential opportunities in intimate, small scale spaces that bloom all year with color. Village character . drives the spatial arrangement of the site and the placement and character of the buildings. The economic and natural ■ "floral history” of the area drives plant selection and site de- tails. By recognizing the - historic, ecological, and economic heritage of the *- City, the Village of St. An- thony creates a space that is unique in the region and inherently reconnected to the community. ; , rr v August, 2003 7 8 Village at St. Anthony Framework Manual ■ ■ ■ CHAPTER 3: LAND USES ■ As part of the overall planning process for the Northwest the existing population, as well as provide housing choices ■ Quadrant, a comprehensive market potential analysis was for new residents.

The General Concept Plan shows redevelopment occurring on sites adjacent to the Apache Mall property it- self. In order to maximize the potential for redevelopment on the mall site, certain additional properties may ultimately be included in the project. ■ 1 The General Concept Plan shows all uses along the west „ side of Silver Lake Rd. from the railroad tracks north to Silver Lane being redeveloped. It also shows those uses located on the east side of Stinson Blvd from 371h Ave NE to 391h Ave NE and along both sides of 39'h east of Stinson, which in fact '"' may not be immediately developed. Uses that would not be redeveloped include the Apache office building at the corner of Stinson Blvd and Silver Lane, the Equinox apartment com- r o plex and the Cub food store. Access to the existing Equinox apartment complex may ulti- mately tie into the street grid pattern, and attempts will be made to connect and integrate these apartments with the Redevelopment Concept Area rest of the development, although the existing garage struc- tures effectively fence them in, providing a stark edge rather than an inviting opening. The garages may be able to be screened or softened with extensive landscaping or other elements of the streetscape. Rail poad All other businesses and buildings that will not be redevel- oped will be integrated into the overall development plan through the use of landscaping, lighting, coordinated access points, signage, and other means. 14 Village at St. Anthony Framework Manual ■ ■ ■ CHAPTER 4: STREET PATTERNS, ACCESS, AND CIRCULATION SYSTEMS The redevelopment area currently has a very poor circula- site by limited stop to Rosedale Mall and to the Brookdale tion pattern.

PUBLIC HEARINGS. 28 8.1 Autumn Woods II LLP 2534 2538 2542, 2546 and 2548 Kenzie Terrace, Amend the 29 Planned Unit Development(PUD) for an additional 38 units of adult rental housing. 30 31 Chair Melsha opened the public hearing at 7:09 p.m. 32 33 Susan Hall stated that Paul Brewer, President, LaNel Financial Group, representing Autumn 34 Woods II, met with the Planning Commission in December 2002 concerning their preliminary 35 plans for construction of a housing development called Autumn Woods Villas, to be located at 36 the 2500 block of Kenzie Terrace. She stated that they are returning with the final development 37 plans to amend their existing PUD for an additional 38-units of adult rental housing. She 38 explained that they are proposing to develop a market rate rental building on the former city- 39 owned single-family lots of 2534, 2538, 2542 2546 and 2548 Kenzie Terrace. She stated that the 40 plan submitted by LaNel shows a total of 38 one and two bedroom units along with various 41 common activity and recreation areas. 42 43 Ms. Hall stated that Autumn Woods II has requested to amend its existing adjacent PUD noting 44 that a PUD offers flexibility for both them and the City. She reviewed the proposed building 45 layout with the Commission noting that the building would have three stories with 35 46 underground parking spaces. She noted that there are also seven surface parking spaces as 47 shown on the site plan. She explained that city code requires at least two parking spaces per unit 48 in apartment buildings, with at least one of which is enclosed. She stated that based on city code I Planning Commission Meeting Minutes 2 July 15, 2003 3 Page 3 4 5 the developer is short three enclosed parking spaces plus an additional 31 parking spaces. She 6 explained that with a PUD the developer is not required to have this amount of parking spaces 7 and stated that Mr. Brewer would speak to the Commission regarding the parking. 8 9 Ms. Hall referenced the encroachment into the side yard setback noting that Autumn Woods 10 owns the adjacent property. She stated that all other required setbacks are met. She stated the 11 apartments on the first level would have an entry to the street and courtyard in addition to a 12 center hall that would access the underground parking area. She stated that the building exterior 13 would closely match the adjacent and existing Autumn Woods development adding that the 14 entire development would tie together well. 15 16 Paul Brewer, President, LaNel Financial Group, stated that what they are proposing is in 17 response to City requests and explained that they intend to develop a 38-unit building that is a 18 break from the traditional three-story, corridor building. He noted that they also own the 19 adjacent property, Autumn Woods Apartments, a combination senior and market rate property. 20 He provided the Commission with an overview of the plan noting that each of the first floor units 21 would have two entrances, one exterior exit and one that would provide entrance to the center 22 corridor. He stated that the development is an addition to the current Autumn Woods apartments 23 and the exterior materials would be integrated with the current building. He reviewed the 24 entrances and access points with the Commission noting that they were able to utilize the 25 easterly entryway into the current Autumn Woods as an entry to the proposed addition. He 26 stated that they would be coming to the city with a re-plat subdivision request and explained that 27 they would have to re-plat the location to create a Lot 1 for the current property and a Lot 2 for 28 the new property. He reviewed the parking stalls with the Commission noting that the 29 underground garage currently shows storage cubicles. He explained that most of the storage 30 cubicles would be converted to parking stalls. He further explained that the property would be 31 an adult community adding that most would only require one stall. He stated that they do not 32 anticipate a need for two cars per unit and that the residents would also be able to utilize the 33 parking areas in the Autumn Woods I development. He explained that through their research 34 they have found that many seniors do not drive and therefore do not require more than one 35 parking stall. 36 37 Commissioner Tillman asked what the parking ratio is for the existing building. Mr. Brewer 38 clarified that there is one parking stall for each apartment plus one extra for visitor parking. 39 Commissioner Tillman clarified that the existing Autumn Woods has one parking stall 40 underground and one exterior parking stall per unit. 41 42 Vice Chair Stille asked how many parking spaces they would gain if they convert the storage 43 cubicles. Mr. Brewer clarified that they would probably gain four additional parking stalls. 44 45 Vice Chair Stille asked if they would have separate parking easements. Mr. Brewer explained 46 that they would have cross easements due to the drainage, the holding pond, use of the current 47 driveway for access and parking and use of the pool. 48 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 4 1 Commissioner Hanson asked how many additional staff members would be required. Mr. 2 Brewer stated that it would probably require two more staff members. 3 4 Commissioner Hoska referenced the curb cut in front and asked if they anticipated an island. 5 Mr. Brewer explained that the proposed curb cut is for the drop off point. He further explained 6 that EMS would be able to enter the site from the east driveway. 7 8 Commissioner Stromgren referenced the exterior drawings and asked Mr. Brewer to review the 9 materials they plan to use. Mr. Brewer reviewed the materials with the Commission noting that 10 the building would consist mostly of brick with a stone-face along the front entry. Dan O'Brien, 11 Architect for the project further explained that the permanent siding is a vinyl material that 12 would be maintenance free. He stated that the trim around the eaves of the building and gable 13 ends are metal clad with brick and stone accents. 14 15 Commissioner Hanson asked if there would be additional signage. Mr. Brewer stated that they 16 are proposing a ground sign on Kenzie Terrace to designate the entrance in addition to 17 directional signs. 18 19 Chair Melsha closed the public hearing at 7:25 p.m. 20 21 Vice Chair Stille noted that he was initially taken aback at the number of parking stalls stating 22 that after hearing the existing history he is glad to hear that it is in line with the number of units. 23 He explained that he drove through the project and did notice that the general exterior parking 24 lot is not full. He stated that his concerns' regarding the parking stalls has been satisfied. 25 26 Motion by Commissioner Stille, second by Commissioner Chair Melsha, to recommend approval 27 of the proposed planned development unit for plans dated November 2002, subject to change in 28 proposed parking to 38 versus 35, subject to review of cross easements by the City Attorney and 29 completion of the re-plat. 30 Motion carried unanimously. 31 32 7.2 Amcon Construction, 2900 Kenzie Terrace and 2700 Hi hwU 88. 33 34 Chair Melsha opened the public hearing at 7:28 p.m. 35 36 Susan Hall stated that city has entered into a predevelopment agreement with Amcon 37 Construction to redevelop the corner of Kenzie Terrace and Highway 88, also known as the 38 Stonehouse and/or Fire Station sites. She stated that Amcon has submitted the formal 39 applications for public hearings associated with their final plans. She reviewed the pending 40 applications with the Commission noting that the applicant is also requesting an administrative 41 subdivision. She explained that the administrative subdivision does not require a public hearing 42 but is being included for discussion and will be forwarded to the City Council for review. 43 44 Ms. Hall provided the Commission with a background history stating that the redevelopment 45 plans shows 26,000 square feet of retail in two buildings. She stated that one new building 46 would be located on the northern portion of the property, located at the corner of Kenzie Terrace Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 5 1 and Highway 88, and the other new building would be situated where the existing strip center is 2 currently located. She stated that both properties, 2900 Kenzie Terrace and 2700 Highway 88, 3 are zoned commercial. She stated that Amcon is requesting two conditional use permits, the first 4 for the restaurant as restaurants located less than 250 feet from a residential structure is a 5 permitted conditional use in a commercial district. She explained that the condition items to 6 consider here might be noise, traffic, trash removal, lighting and hours of operation. She further 7 explained that it is unknown at this time if the restaurant, Spectators, is interested in having 8 music piped out to the outdoor patio. She stated that the second conditional use permit is for the 9 on-sale liquor store, which is also a permitted conditional use in a commercial zoning district. 10 11 Ms. Hall stated that the applicant is requesting two front yard setback variances. She stated that 12 the variance request consists of two front yard setback variances of 30 feet each for a proposed 13 setback of 5 feet at the building corners. The applicant has stated that due to the triangular shape 14 of the parcel the tendency is to develop the site similar to its current layout with the building to 15 the south side and the parking out to the corner. According to the developer, one of the strengths 16 to the design is to reduce the impact of the parking lot and to reinforce the street edge by using 17 the restaurant to wrap around and create a corner. This keeps the parking central within the sit to 18 allow shared use of the parking. In addition, Ms. Hall stated that one rear yard setback variance 19 of 10 feet is being requested for the proposed setback of 10 feet at the southeast corner property 20 line jog. 21 22 Ms. Hall stated that the final variance request is related to parking. She stated that the developer 23 is requesting a parking variance of 40 stalls for a proposed 40 parking stalls for a sit down 24 restaurant. She reviewed city code parking requirements with the Commission noting that to be 25 compliant with city code requirements they would need 80 parking stalls. She stated that the 26 developer is proposing 40 stalls for the restaurant with the balance to be shared with the retail 27 building. She stated that the developer shows 67 parking stalls for the retail area, which meets 28 city code. The developer has noted that due to staggered peak business times for retail and liquor 29 stores and the restaurant, the centralized parking would maximize the efficiency of the 30 development. Ms. Hall noted that the owner of the St. Anthony Shopping Center has expressed 31 concerns to staff stating that he does not want to be the spillover parking spot. 32 33 Ms. Hall referenced the signage stating that the developer has told staff that they would keep 34 within the limits of the City sign ordinance and that all signage would be building/wall signage. 35 She reviewed signage with the Commission stating that it would consist of backlit logo signs and 36 that, according to the developer there would not be a glow to affect the residential area. She 37 stated that the City would be reconstructing the sidewalk this fall for a storm water project along 38 Kenzie Terrace noting that Amcon intends to connect the sidewalk to the buildings. She stated 39 that the City Engineer has been involved with the grading plans, adding that impervious surface 40 around the site has been reduced and that drainage would be improved. 41 42 Commissioner Hanson asked if the Stonehouse is currently a conditional use permit. Ms. Hall 43 confirmed that it is. Commissioner Stromgren and Tillman asked for further clarification of the 44 250-foot line. Ms. Hall reviewed the lot line and conditional use permit issues with the 45 Commission. 46 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 6 1 Todd Christopherson, Amcon Construction and Michael Monn, Project Architect,provided the 2 Commission with a brief background on the project. Mr. Christopherson stated that he has been 3 working closely with City staff adding that they hope to close on the property approximately 4 September 8, 2003. He explained that they would begin asbestos abatement immediately with 5 construction beginning a week later. He stated that it is their plan that once demolition begins, 6 they would then move into the construction phase this fall with a projected completion date in 7 the spring in late May 2004. He stated that they are in the process of working out agreements 8 with various tenants noting that they could possibly have a flower shop, a nail/beauty boutique 9 and an insurance company. He confirmed that they have received commitments from the City 10 Liquor Store and the Spectators Restaurant group. 11 12 Mr. Monn stated that he has been involved with the project since December 2002 working 13 closely with City staff, the City Engineer and WSB. He stated that they have several goals for 14 this project that improve the aesthetics to the entry of the City that would include re-pavement of 15 the parking area, adding green space improved lighting, for safety purposes, and provide a better, 16 overall facility that would be fully occupied. He stated that this would also improve the tax base 17 for the city in addition to pedestrian access. 18 19 Commissioner Tillman asked what the peak hours of operation would be for the restaurant 20 versus the retail and how it would affect parking. Mr. Christopherson stated that they are 21 anticipating that most of the retail users would be higher traffic with short-term visits, whereas 22 the restaurant would have lunch hour and dinner hour peaks. He stated that the liquor store 23 would close at 8:00 p.m. on weeknights and 10:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday nights. 24 25 Mr. Morn reviewed the conditional uses of the property with the Commission stating that their 26 focus is on the variance requests. He reviewed the urban retail in area, noting that it is a tight 27 knit, street-front type of feel in the retail areas. He explained that many cities are reversing 28 themselves regarding setbacks and are planning more street edge requirements. He explained 29 that in reviewing the area they tried to determine how to bridge the three streets that come 30 together noting that this is what defines the actual corner. He explained that because of the 31 nature of the site layout and their parking requirements it was decided to begin working south to 32 north. He stated that they want to utilize the existing drive and enter to the back of the building 33 for trash and employee parking. 34 35 Mr. Monn reviewed the property line and curb line with the Commission stating that they would 36 be coming back approximately 35-feet from the existing location and lot. He reviewed the rear 37 yard setback stating that it is behind the liquor store. He provided a review and overlay of the 38 existing building as it compares to the proposed location of the building to the Commission 39 noting that the variance is for a very small portion of the site. He reviewed the variance request 40 for the parking area stating that most of his experience has been that as retail is winding down 41 the restaurant begins getting their clientele. He stated that they have been working closely with 42 Spectators on the parking issue and also reviewed the proposed retail parking needs with the 43 Commission. 44 45 Commissioner Tillman asked if there would be outdoor seating. Mr. Monn stated that Spectators 46 would like a small patio area along the Kenzie Terrace/parking lot side. Commissioner Tillman Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 7 1 asked if this was included in the 170 seats. Mr. Monn confirmed and explained that they are 2 modeling this restaurant after the Spectators restaurant that recently opened in Savage. 3 4 Commissioner Hanson asked if the restaurant would be finished on all four sides. Mr. Monn 5 stated that it would be and reviewed the materials with the Commission. He stated that the 6 building would be primarily brick and stucco with glass in the lower level. He provided an 7 overview of the rough draft designs of the front elevations for the Commission stating that the 8 primary material would be brick and stucco with major glass areas wrapping around the 9 building. He stated that there would be awnings and wall signage around the building and no 10 windows on the north side, which is where the service doors would be located. 11 12 Vice Chair Stille asked for clarification on the legal description of the property. Mr. Monn 13 stated that it is his understanding that the property would be one parcel. 14 15 Chair Melsha asked if they have considered any other ways to move the buildings in order to add 16 more parking. Mr. Monn stated that they could remove some of the green space. He stated that 17 they could also go in behind the main part of building and place an additional 10 stalls for 18 parking. He explained that there would also be service doors and that they could add an 19 additional five to ten feet for a service zone with curbing. 20 21 Commissioner Stromgren expressed concerns stating that the north face of the building would be 22 a full brick faeade. Mr. Monn stated that he would review the north side of the building with the 23 development team to determine if they could break up the appearance and add some design to 24 the north wall. 25 26 Commissioner Hanson asked if the electrical box would stay where it is. Mr. Monn stated that 27 the electrical box would probably be moved in addition to a sign on the corner. He explained 28 that the sign is located on common property. 29 30 Commissioner Stromgren referenced the landscaping and asked if any fencing or structures 31 would be installed around the area. Mr. Morn stated that presently nothing is planned as far as 32 enclosures or fencing around the area. 33 34 Chair Melsha asked if Spectators has outdoor seating. Mr. Monn confirmed that there would be 35 outdoor seating adding that it is included on the plans. 36 37 Chair Melsha expressed concerns regarding music piped to the outdoor seating area stating that 38 there would be restrictions applied with respect to the residential area. He explained that the 39 restaurant would have to keep the music low enough so that residents would not hear it from 40 their yards. Mr. Monn assured the Commission that Spectators would abide by the noise level 41 requirements. 42 43 Dennis Cavanaugh stated that the Conditional Use Permit addressing the 250-foot residential 44 requirement was created for specific reasons. He explained that noise from the area is not 45 something that residents enjoy noting that having a restaurant placed this closely to a residential 46 area is a bit traumatic for someone not used to the activity it brings. He stated that the Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 8 1 Stonehouse was set back far enough on the property that the distance helped abate most of the 2 noise. He stated the residents do not want nor do they need any more noise to deal with. He 3 stated that the Stonehouse had 140 parking spaces adding that on the weekends the entire 140 4 spaces were full. He expressed concerns that the weekend parking would spillover into the 5 residential areas and encouraged the Commission to keep that under consideration. He 6 explained that most sports bars tend to attract a very aggressive crowd and encouraged the 7 Commission to consider large buffers for the noise abatement. He stated that as the evening 8 goes on and things begin to quiet down the sound would travel and appear louder from a 9 distance. He stated that the residents are concerned that they would lose much of the enjoyment 10 they experience now with their homes. He stated that the residents want to be represented by the 11 Planning Commission and asked to consider the variances they grant and to keep in mind that 12 they would like to be allowed to continue enjoying the ambiance of their homes. He stated that 13 they would like to see no outside music,minimum signage, no rooftop patio and parking 14 included in the conditions. He stated that the residents are not part of the business and do not 15 owe the restaurant additional parking in the residential areas. 16 17 Mike Gonditch, 2901 St. Boulevard, stated that he is amazed that no consideration was given to 18 the residents with respect to the outdoor patio. He stated that during the time that the 19 Stonehouse was there the music was loud and went on forever. He expressed concerns that this 20 would continue with the outdoor patio and compound the noise already tolerated by the 21 neighborhood. He stated that he did not see anything included in the plans to address the 22 garbage dumpsters. Chair Melsha explained that the dumpsters would be located on the north 23 side of the building, close to Highway 88. 24 25 Tom Sapia, representing the St. Anthony Shopping Center, asked how the variances would affect 26 the shopping center. He explained that the setbacks are their primary concern. He stated that 27 parking is a significant issue and expressed concerns that the overage would spill over into the 28 residential areas and also the shopping center. He also expressed concerns that this type of 29 variance may not be a good precedent for the City noting the size of the proposed building would 30 require significant parking. He said they were concerned about the drainage,but glad the 31 applicant has dealt with it. He stated that the Shopping Center is very interested in seeing this 32 property developed and asked that the Commission address the parking issues. 33 34 Chair Melsha asked if any consideration was given to placing the service side more to the east 35 and have the solid wall facing Highway 88. Mr. Christopherson stated that they reviewed 36 several options stating that the proposed layout helps them achieve the parking count to 120 37 spaces. He stated that any other design would cause them to lose the ability to have two 38 continuous lines of parking. Commissioner Hanson suggested a solid wall to the west and move 39 the outdoor patio to the Highway 88 side of the building, facing the cemetery and golf course. 40 He also suggested placing the dumpsters on the west side against the building. Mr. 41 Christopherson agreed that this would be good idea stating that he would review this suggestion 42 further and try to accommodate the residents concerns regarding the noise levels. 43 44 Mr. Monn referenced the backside of the building stating that they have considered several 45 options in an effort to enhance the appearance. He stated that the present plan shows that three 46 sides of the building would be glass and one side would be all brick. He noted that with the Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 9 1 current proposal they have an opportunity to include green space that would soften the area with 2 landscaping, which would also address the sound issues. 3 4 Vice Chair Stille asked for further clarification of the lighting improvements. Mr. 5 Christopherson explained that they would be doing an engineering study for the lighting. He 6 assured the Commission that the parking lot would be lit with downcast light fixtures. He 7 acknowledged that there is a limit to the amount of light out to the property line and assured the 8 Commission that the lighting would be in compliance with City Code. 9 10 Vice Chair Stille asked Mr. Morin if he had any comments regarding the ventilation systems for 11 the kitchen. Mr. Morin reviewed the ventilation system with the Commission. He explained that 12 they have done several projects with a variety of restaurants and there are several styles available 13 that could be placed on the rooftop that would not sound like a turbojet when operating. Vice 14 Chair Stille noted that this would be very close to a residential district adding that it would be 15 nice to go the extra step to accommodate the residents. Mr. Morin stated that they would do 16 whatever they could to accommodate the residents in the area. He explained that from a visual 17 standpoint the resulting screen is more obtrusive than the actual unit noting that from noise 18 standpoint, roof top units are not an issue. He stated that if screening is a requirement that they 19 would implement the screening. He noted that from previous experience this would not be a 20 good resolution. Commissioner Stromgren asked for clarification of the roof slope and 21 placement of units. Mr. Morin reviewed with the Commission. 22 23 Commissioner Stromgren referenced the elevations and asked Mr. Morin to review the elevations 24 and storm water drainage with the Commission. 25 26 Commissioner Hanson asked if they could place one-way glass on the northern service side of 27 the building. Mr. Morin stated that they have installed this type of glass in certain cases to dress 28 up the walls. He explained that it would create additional problems due to caulking and weather 29 stripping adding that it is not a good solution architecturally. 30 31 Vice Chair Stille asked if there were any plans for a roof top patio. Mr. Morin stated that there 32 were no plans for a roof top patio and reviewed their concerns with the Commission. 33 34 Barry Tetland, Crossroads Fitness Center, asked for further clarification of the process. Chair 35 Melsha clarified the process for Mr. Tetland stating that the Planning Commission reviews the 36 proposal and provides a recommendation to the City Council for consideration. Mr. Tetland 37 stated that he reviewed the proposal, the variance requests and setbacks noting that initially he 38 felt there would be too much brick on the building. He expressed concerns regarding the type of 39 clientele the sports bar would bring stating that they would prefer to see a family type restaurant 40 in the area versus another sports bar. He expressed concerns that this project would affect land 41 values and asked how it would affect the surrounding residential properties. He expressed 42 concerns stating that serious thought needs to go into this proposal. He stated that he is very 43 pleased with the proposed landscaping and expressed hopes that it would not diminish. He 44 stated that he believes they are trying to put too much into such a small space. 45 46 Chair Melsha closed the public hearing at 8:40 p.m. Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 10 1 Chair Melsha noted that the new trend in planning is to bring the buildings closer to the street. 2 He expressed his disappointment that the north-facing wall has no windows. He agreed that the 3 design should be friendly to the area adding that it does need more work. He acknowledged that 4 had they used the same footprint as the Stonehouse it would have also required variances, as the 5 shape of the property is very unique and difficult to work with. He stated that he is sympathetic 6 to the concerns regarding noise levels adding that he believes this could be addressed I through 7 conditions. 8 9 Vice Chair Stille acknowledged the uniqueness of the site and reviewed his concerns with the 10 parking issues. He agreed that there is a need to plan appropriately. He stated that he would like 11 to be efficient in how they handle this site adding that the Commission wants to be sure the 12 neighbors are not impacted by this project. 13 14 Commissioner Stromgren reviewed the conditional use permit for the restaurant noting that 15 procedurally it applies to more than just the structure. He acknowledged that the setback issues 16 are being addressed adding that the conditional use issues should be clarified further. Chair 17 Melsha stated that this could be addressed in the conditions. He stated that some of the 18 conditions would require a response back to the Council by next week. 19 20 Commissioner Hanson asked if the City Council has decided if the operation is lam or 2am. Ms. 21 Hall stated that the final determination has not been made. Chair Melsha added that Council is 22 considering placing operational hours back to 1:00 a.m. versus 2:00 a.m. closing time, it is 23 currently 2 am. 24 25 Commissioner Hanson stated that he would like to see the trash bins placed inside the building 26 or attached to the building. Vice Chair Stille and Commissioner Stromgren agreed stating that 27 the area should be kept tidy in appearance and consistent with the building and landscaping plan. 28 29 Commissioner Hanson stated that he would like a condition included that would state no outside 30 seating or music after 9:00 p.m. Chair Melsha and Vice Chair Stille agreed stating that music is 31 not vital to an outdoor experience. 32 33 Commissioner Hoska asked Mike Larson, Liquor Operations, what the hours were for outside 34 seating at the Stonehouse. Mr. Larson stated that the outside seating for the Stonehouse ended at 35 dusk, approximately 9:00 p.m. and that the music was on,but kept very low in volume. 36 37 MOTION - Conditional Use Permit 38 Motion by Commissioner Chair Melsha, seconded by Commissioner Stille to recommend 39 approval of the Conditional Use Permit under the following conditions: 1. Garbage areas are 40 enclosed with materials that match; 2. Lighting must be `down spill' with no spillage to the R-1 41 properties across Kenzie Terrace and confirm with adjacent area(St. Anthony Boulevard); 3. 42 Hours for outside seating shall not exceed 9:00 p.m.; 4. No music or other artificial noise shall 43 be audible from any residential district; 5. Liquor Store and restaurant shall be in compliance 44 with all other state, city and other applicable laws and regulations; 6. That the City Engineers 45 approve the plan, including a determination that the proposed plan will not have an adverse 46 impact on the current water run-off situation; 7. Will address sidewalk connectivity; 8. Move Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 11 1 the outside Patio to the east side of the building; 9. Consider screening of the roof-top 2 ventilation systems; 10. Investigate options to break up the mass on the north side of the 3 building; 11. Landscape the north side of the building; 12. Conform the design and model to the 4 Savage store; 13. Hours of operation coincide with liquor store service hours. 5 6 The Commissioners recommended approval of the liquor store conditional use permit, with no 7 conditions attached. 8 Motion carried unanimously. 9 10 Chair Melsha reviewed the variance issues with the Commission. 11 12 Commissioner Tillman clarified her concerns with the front yard setback and reviewed with the 13 Commission. She acknowledged that the plan currently proposes a good buffer noting that it 14 could become an issue if the streets should ever need to be reconfigured. She expressed 15 concerns that too much is being placed on the site. She expressed concerns that there would not 16 be enough parking. 17 18 Commissioner Hanson expressed concerns that they have not identified all of the tenants yet. He 19 noted that they could place the restaurant and liquor store, without the other tenants and probably 20 be very successful. He expressed concerns that this is too much between the parking variance 21 and the setback variances. Chair Melsha explained that it would be too difficult to do anything 22 on this parcel without variances. 23 24 Commissioner Stromgren stated that he is inclined to recommend the front yard variances in the 25 interest of maximizing parking. Chair Melsha stated that he is inclined to approve all three 26 variances and reviewed his concerns with the Commission. Commissioner Hoska agreed with 27 Commissioner Stromgren to grant variances C through F. He stated that he has discussed the 28 restaurant with several residents noting that they do want the restaurant. He agreed that it is an 29 odd shaped lot adding that the architect and developer have done a good job making it work. 30 31 MOTION—Variance 1 32 Motion by Chair Melsha, seconded by Commissioner Stille, to recommend approval of the two 33 front yard setback variances of 30 feet and 5 feet based on findings for undue hardships with 34 parcel; 1. The property is currently blighted, poorly planned with regards to layout and is an 35 overall detriment to the area. 2. Undue hardship exists based on the following: The hardship is 36 a result of an oddly shaped parcel that is generally triangular in shape with a rounded side. 37 These circumstances are not caused by the applicant or property owner. Also, the additional 38 land between the property line in question and the adjacent streets mitigates the impact of the 39 variance. The variance, if granted, would not alter the essential character of the locality, but 40 would essentially replace existing blighted structures with new, more aesthetically pleasing 41 buildings; The property cannot be put to reasonable use without the requested variance because 42 even reconstructing the existing blighted buildings on the same footprints would require set back 43 variances; Economic consideration alone are not the basis for better layout; 3. The 44 circumstances creating this hardship are unique to this oddly shaped property; The variance will 45 allow the property to maximize parking; 4. Granting of the variance will keep within the spirit 46 and intent of zoning code and further, it is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 12 1 Motion carried 5— 1 (1 Nay—Commissioner Tillman). 2 3 MOTION—Variance 2 4 Motion by Chair Melsha, seconded by Commissioner Stromgren, to recommend approval of the 5 one rear yard setback variance of 10 feet for a proposed setback of 10 feet at the southeast corner 6 property line jog. 1. The property in question is currently blighted and poorly planned with 7 regards to layout and is an overall detriment to the area. 2. Undue hardship exists based on the 8 following: Circumstances creating the hardship is an irregular parcel with a jog, not the result of 9 the owner/applicant; The variance, if granted, would not alter the essential character of the 10 locality as there is sufficient room between the property line and adjacent buildings and streets; 11 Also, the project improves the rear yard set back condition as compared to the existing blighted 12 buildings; Economic considerations done are not the reason for the variance request; Because of 13 the overall shape of the parcel, the property cannot be put to reasonable use without the need for 14 variances; 3. The variance will maintain the spirit and intent of the zoning code. 4. The 15 circumstances creating the need for the variance are unique to this property because of its' odd 16 shape. 17 18 Motion carried unanimously 19 20 MOTION—Variance 3 21 Motion by Chair Melsha, seconded by Commissioner Hanson, to recommend approval of the 22 parking variance of 27 stalls for a proposed 120 parking stalls for a sit down restaurant and 23 adjacent retail. (147 required). Based on the following findings: 1. The property iri question is 24 currently blighted, is poorly planned and is overall a detriment to the locale. 2. An undue 25 hardship would result if strict adherence to the ordinance were required, based on the following: 26 The hardship results from the odd shape of the parcel, and was not created by the 27 owner/applicant; The variance would not alter the essential character of the locale, but would 28 represent an improvement to the area; The property cannot be put to reasonable use without the 29 variance because of its' odd configuration; Economic conditions alone are not the basis of the 30 hardship. 3. The circumstances creating the hardship are unique to this property. 4. The 31 granting of the variance will maintain the spirit of the zoning code because of the staggered peak 32 business times for the proposed uses of the property,which will allow for adequate parking for 33 all the uses at any given time of day. 34 35 Motion carried 5-1 (1 Nay-Commissioner Hanson). 36 37 Motion by Chair Melsha, seconded by Commissioner Stille, to recommend approval of the 38 administrative subdivision request. 39 40 Motion carried unanimously 41 42 Chair Melsha called a five-minute break at 9:34 p.m. 43 44 Chair Melsha called the meeting back to order at 9:40 pm. 45 46 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 13 1 7.3 City of St. Anthony. 3501/3505 Silver Lake Road. 2 3 Chair Melsha opened the public hearing at 9:41 p.m. 4 5 Susan Hall stated that on June 17, Oertel Architects brought forward concept plans to the 6 Planning Commission for a new fire station. She explained that the request requires a 7 conditional use permit because it is located in an R-1 zoning district and reviewed with the 8 Commission. She stated that the Fire Department is sensitive to the fact that the station would 9 be located near a residential area and acknowledged the concern regarding noise levels. She 10 explained that Chief Hewitt held a neighborhood meeting on July 9`h to receive feedback from 11 the neighbors. She stated that Jeff Oertel is present to discuss the fmal plans and renderings with 12 the Commission. Ms. Hall also mentioned one front yard setback variance of 11 feet is being 13 requested for the plans for a proposed setback of 19 feet. 14 15 Jeff Oertel, Oertel Architects, provided the Commission with a presentation and overview of the 16 final plans and rendering. He reviewed the variance request with the Commission stating that 17 the municipal complex includes City Hall, the Police Department, the school and park. He 18 stated that the proposed building for the site is approximately 13,000 square feet and includes 19 significant parking for staff and visitors. He stated that it would include three drive-through 20 bays for their apparatus and that the back of the building would be host to the tower, the training 21 tower and stairway. He stated that they have two options to consider for the exterior and 22 provided examples of the building materials for the Commission to review. He asked that they 23 allow the 19-foot setback due to the trees at the back of the site. He stated that they were able to 24 balance off the site so that they do not need to bring in additional fill. He provided an overview 25 of the schematic for the site and reviewed the location of building and entrances with the 26 Commission. He explained that the building consists of work areas, apparatus bays, and public 27 and office areas. He stated that the second floor indicates the staff area, dorm rooms, restrooms, 28 laundry and showers. He acknowledged the Mayor's request to consider adding an option for a 29 combined community room with training area and reviewed the request with the Commission. 30 He provided the Commission with an overview of various elevations and materials. 31 32 Chair Melsha asked what would happen if they did not get the variance. Mr. Oertel reviewed 33 stating that'it does not appear to be a lot of distance, adding that it would be more consistent with 34 the adjacent residential facades. He explained that they would require approximately 10-feet for 35 a work area at the construction site. He further explained that the area they need is right to the 36 grip line of the trees stating that if they go beyond the grip line that the vegetation could be lost. 37 He stated that the amount of fill that would be needed, if they did not get the variance, would 38 considerable and would also be very costly. He further explained that the east elevation has a 39 very steep drop off noting that they were very concerned about the storm water runoff. He stated 40 that by keeping the building forward on the southeast corner would allow them to create a small 41 pond to collect the storm water runoff. 42 43 Commissioner Hanson expressed concerns regarding the facade on the west side of the building 44 and asked if there were any changes. Mr. Oertel stated that the facade did not change very 45 much. He explained that they considered using a stone infill in the middle of the building. He 46 stated that they reviewed several options noting that the change in color drew more attention to Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 14 1 the facade versus less. He explained that they tried to incorporate more windows and glass 2 noting that they had resistance from the staff because all of the functions along that wall are 3 technical in nature—the workshop, the electrical room etc. Chair Melsha asked if there were any 4 differences on a cost basis. Mr. Oertel explained that the metal roof would be more expensive. 5 6 Commissioner Hanson asked if the community room would be a possibility. Mr. Oertel stated 7 that with the current budget it would not be possible. He further stated that the Mayor had heard 8 about the possibilities of a combined community room and training center and asked that they 9 not lose sight of it during the course of the planning. He confirmed that it is not part of the 10 current budget adding that Council would need to decide. 11 12 Chief Hewitt stated that letters were sent to residents with the intent to introduce the designs and 13 explain the construction process. He stated that they encouraged residents to attend the public 14 hearing to present their issues and concerns noting that only two residents showed up at the 15 hearing. He reviewed the intent for use and the noise issues with the Commission. 16 17 Commissioner Tillman asked for further clarification on the lighting for the Fire Station. Chief 18 Hewitt stated that there would be some impact and reviewed the state law requirements for use 19 of lights and sirens with Commission. 20 21 Chair Melsha referenced the traffic issues and asked Chief Hewitt to address this issue. Chief 22 Hewitt reviewed the traffic warning light options with the Commission noting that they would 23 have to depend on the drivers paying attention when they are driving in the area. Chair Melsha 24 asked if vehicles would exit from the south side of the building. Chief Hewitt confirmed that 25 they would. 26 27 Dennis Cavanaugh thanked the Commission for their action on the restaurant. He reviewed the 28 conditional use permit as it relates to the residential areas. He stated that it is important to be 29 familiar with the residents and their concerns and reviewed the issues with the Commission. He 30 stated that he has lived with the current fire station for 25 years noting that the fire trucks have 31 large diesel engines, which do bring considerable noise. He explained that St. Anthony made . 32 938 runs adding that only a few were for fires. He stated that there is considerable activity 33 noting that the south area has experienced only 40-50% of activity in the past and now would 34 experience it 100% with the new location. He encouraged the Commission to consider the 35 conditions and suggested developing a policy to determine when they can use the sirens and 36 when they can't. He expressed concerns that the noise levels could impact property values and 37 the narrow streets may not be able to handle the large equipment. He suggested that the 38 Commission review the engine idling outside noting the sound levels and fumes. He suggested 39 berming as a possible solution for noise buffer. He stated that the Commission should be aware 40 of these issues and that the residents should be able to fully enjoy their properties. 41 42 Commissioner Stromgren asked Mr. Oertel to review the noise issues. Mr. Oertel reviewed the 43 noise level issues stating that the air exhaust fan would be located towards the back of the 44 building. He stated that there are already guidelines in place that dictate the use of the siren and 45 horns. Commissioner Stromgren acknowledged Mr. Cavanaugh's concerns regarding the idling 46 of engines outside the building and expressed concerns regarding pollution. Mr. Oertel stated Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 15 1 that he would look into the idling issue and update the Commission. Chief Hewitt explained that 2 there are times when the fire motor operators take the apparatus out to check their equipment. 3 He further explained that due to the inadequate space they would sometimes take the trucks 4 outside to idle during the winter months in order to ensure proper flow of water through the 5 apparatus. 6 7 Vice Chair Stille asked Chief Hewitt to comment on the adjacent property values. Chief Hewitt 8 stated that the Hennepin County Assessor clarified that they have not seen a decrease in property 9 values due to the location of a fire station. He stated that they have also held discussions with an 10 appraisal/realtor, noting that many residents do not mind as it adds a feeling of safety. 11 12 Chair Melsha closed public hearing at 10:20 p.m. 13 14 Chair Melsha acknowledged the noise concerns stating also that he is not too concerned with the 15 conditions as it is the City who is requesting the permit and City Council would be monitoring 16 the progress very closely. Commissioner Tillman suggested outlining the expectations for the 17 residents with respect to lighting, building appearance and noise policies so that the residents 18 would know what to expect. 19 20 Commissioner Hoska referenced the noise issues stating that he grew up two blocks from a fire 21 station. He stated that knowing the fire station was so close gave a very comforting and safe 22 feeling. He assured the Commission that the Fire Department would be very conscientious of 23 the noise levels and agreed that there is no need to add restrictions or conditions. He confirmed 24 that sirens are not used at night unless they absolutely have to. Chair Melsha clarified that they 25 could suggest an expectation noting that the conditions would never be legally enforced. 26 27 Commissioner Tillman stated that she would welcome the Fire Department if they could come 28 forward and provide a list of options that would address the noise issues. She stated that she 29 would like to see conditions included that would address the lighting and ensure that there would 30 be no spillage outside of the property area. 31 32 Motion by Commissioner Tillman, seconded by Commissioner Stromgren, to recommend 33 approval of a conditional use permit for a proposed fire station, which is located in a R-1 single- 34 family zoning district. With the following conditions: 1. lighting be contained to the property 35 and minimal spillage outside of property; 2. there be an informational listing that identifies what 36 the Fire Department plans to do to minimize noise levels; 3. put together a plan for the front of 37 the building with respect to landscaping and design; 4. recommend Plan B with the square roof 38 design; 5. request to investigate further development of the west facade. 39 40 Motion carried unanimously 41 42 Motion by Commissioner Stromgren, seconded by Commissioner Hoska, to recommend 43 approval of one front yard setback variance of 11 feet for a proposed setback of 19 feet based on 44 the desire and city's interest to preserve the trees along property line that borders Central Park. 45 Also, this recognizes concern regarding depth and increasing the slope along the east side would 46 cause additional hardship. Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 16 1 Motion carried unanimously 2 3 7.4 City of St. Anthony. 3801 Chandler Drive. 4 5 Chair Melsha opened the public hearing at 10:35 p.m. 6 7 Susan Hall stated that last month Mr. Oertel brought forward plans for the Public Works facility. 8 She explained that the present plan includes: 1. two front yard setback variances of 28 feet and 9 21 feet for a proposed setback from the front property line to the northwest corner of the building 10 of 13 feet and from the property line to the primary facade of 18 feet; 2. one side yard setback 11 variance of 5 feet off the property line for the existing Public Works building; 3. one rear yard 12 setback variance of 4 feet for a proposed setback of 11 feet to allow the back side of the 13 proposed sale building to align with the rear elevation of the existing Public Works building; 14 and, 4. one variance to allow for the proposed use of a supported membrane structure for the use 15 of salt storage and loading. Ms. Hall reviewed the requests with the Commission. She stated that 16 the requested variances would allow the Public Works Department to build structures on site 17 without causing compromise to the use of the site. She reviewed the building materials and 18 structure with the Commission. 19 20 Mr. Oertel provided the Commission with a brief overview stating that they are using the entire 21 site for the existing Public Works operation. He explained that the goal is to demolish 22 approximately 2/3's of the existing building, saving the rear third for shop storage. He explained 23 that the variance would allow them to keep this part of the building. He explained that the salt 24 shed would be adjacent to the north noting that the variances involve the northwest corner of the 25 site. He stated that the site is unusual and rectangular in shape except at the corner. He stated 26 that they are very aware of how key this is to the City adding that the Wetland Commission 27 might not require a retention pond adding that it is good public policy to keep it going. He 28 reviewed the dimensions of the building and the green space with the Commission. He noted 29 that the green space would be a holding area for water. He provided the Commission with 30 examples of the materials to be used for the back of the building and reviewed the elevation 31 designs with the Commission. 32 33 Chair Melsha noted property is fenced. Mr. Oertel stated the entire site would be fenced 34 including the pond. He referenced the western portion of site stating that this area would always 35 be outside accessible and used for parking. 36 37 Commissioner Stromgren asked what materials would be used around the ponds. Mr. Oertel 38 stated that they are considering a clay liner with prairie type grass. 39 40 Vice Chair Stille asked how visible the salt barrel would be from the street and to the neighbors 41 across the property line. Mr. Oertel stated that it would be visible from the street due to its 42 height and that the fuel island system would be sitting in front of the salt barrel. 43 44 Commissioner Hanson asked if this is a permanent structure. Mr. Oertel explained that the 45 membrane can be removed and that the intent is that the roof would remain in place year round. 46 He noted that they would have to replace the roof in approximately twenty years. Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 17 1 Vice Chair Stille asked if they would be including any green space to the plan. Mr. Oertel stated 2 that there is a lot of unpaved area and that their goal is to have the entire front and northern 3 portion of the building landscaped. 4 5 Commissioner Stromgren asked for further clarification of the metal buildings located on the 6 northern portion of the site. Mr. Oertel reviewed the main entrance of building stating that this 7 location is very close to where you would enter the two bays for the fire department right now. 8 9 Commissioner Stromgren referenced the timber storage bins on the south end and asked if it is 10 for sand or mulch. Mr. Oertel stated that it is actually for the sand and materials that are class 5. 11 He stated that the Public Works Department would like to have as tall of a wall as is possible 12 made of concrete noting that it would probably have 5-foot, heavy timbers with a fence above. 13 14 Chair Melsha closed the public hearing at 10:54 p.m. 15 16 Commissioner Hanson asked if staff has received any comments from residents. Ms. Hall stated 17 that they have not received any comments from the residents. 18 19 Motion by Commissioner Stille, seconded by Commissioner Tillman, to recommend approval of 20 the first three variances as for this project, as listed above, and previously presented by Ms. Hall. 21 The hardships identified by not granting the variances include: 1. It would compromise the use 22 of the site with the nature of the Public Works Facility and 2. Granting the variance would not 23 alter the character of surrounding neighborhood and community. Additional hardship is due to 24 the property shape and the site is not a,square site but is unique to the northwest corner. 25 26 Motion carried unanimously 27 28 Motion by Commissioner Stromgren, seconded by Commissioner Hoska, to recommend 29 approval of the structure to allow for the proposed use of a supported membrane structure 30 appropriate for the use of salt storage and loading. 31 32 Motion carried unanimously 33 34 7.5 Health Care Plus, Inc., 2500 Highway 88, #105, a conditional use permit for an adult day 35 care facility. 36 37 Chair Melsha opened the public hearing at 11:03 p.m. 38 39 Susan Hall stated that Health Care Plus is requesting a conditional use permit and reviewed the 40 request with the Commission. 41 42 David Olshansky, Administrator, provided an overview of the adult daycare services that the 43 center would provide noting that the intent of the center is to provide for adults who are in need 44 of assistance. He reviewed the differences between an adult daycare and home health care 45 services with the Commission. He stated that it is their hope to be open for approximately 15 to Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 18 1 17 people and the hours of operation would be from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. He assured the 2 Commission that they would not go beyond normal business hours. 3 4 Karen McDonald, 3013 Crestview Drive, stated that she has worked at local nursing homes in 5 the area and as a public health nurse. She indicated she plans to work at Health Care Plus as the 6 Medical Director. She stated that there is a high need for adult daycares due to the rising costs 7 for nursing home care. She explained that the Health Care Center would be a place where adults 8 could go to have meals, receive physical therapy and medication, where they would check vital 9 signs, work with doctors and participate in activities. She clarified that they would probably 10 have some extended hours due to people dropping off individuals before and after their workday. 11 Vice Chair Stille asked what would be considered the typical mobility of the client base. Ms. 12 McDonald explained that it would be wheel chair accessible and also include ambulatory. 13 Commissioner Hanson asked what the ratio would be patient to staff. Mr. Olshansky stated that 14 the ratio would be 1 to 8. 15 16 Chair Melsha referenced the location stating that it does not appear to be a good loading spot. 17 Mr. Olshansky explained that they would have handicapped spaces and that they have consulted 18 with the Building Inspector and Fire Marshall to address the access issues. 19 20 Commissioner Hanson asked what the square footage is for the location. Mr. Olshansky stated 21 that the square footage is approximately 1200 square feet and a ratio of 40 feet per person, which 22 would accommodate between 15 to 17 people. Chair Melsha asked if this is regulated by the 23 State. Mr. Olshansky confirmed that it is regulated by the State. 24 25 Vice Chair Stille asked if the handicap ramp is regulated by the State. Commissioner Stromgren 26 clarified that this would be regulated by the Building Inspection Department. 27 28 Commissioner Stromgren asked for further clarification of the extended hours. Ms. McDonald 29 explained that they are considering 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. for their open hours in order to 30 accommodate the working day and consider individual needs. 31 32 Chair Melsha closed the public hearing at 11:15 p.m. 33 34 Motion by Commissioner Chair Melsha, seconded by Commissioner Stromgren, to recommend 35 approval of Health Care Plus, Inc.'s request for a conditional use permit for an adult day care 36 facility located at 2500 Highway 88, #105, with the condition that they maintain and comply 37 with all federal, state and local laws as applicable while in operation in St. Anthony Village. 38 39 Motion carried unanimously 40 41 7.6 Northgate Condominium Owner's Association and LeRoy Sign Co., 2500 Highway 88, 42 Sign Variance Request. 43 44 Chair Melsha opened the public hearing at 11:17 p.m. 45 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 19 1 Susan Hall stated that the Northgate Office Park has submitted a request for a pylon sign and 2 will need the following variances: 1. an 8 foot height variance to allow for a 16 foot sign; 2. a 10 3 foot setback variance to allow for a 5 foot setback from the driveway; 3. a variance of 16 square 4 feet to allow for a sign surface area of 96 square feet for 2 copy surfaces; and, 4. a variance for a 5 pylon sign. She explained that the City Manager has rejected the sign plan because Northgate 6 has deviated too far from the sign ordinance. She reviewed the setback requirements and the 7 sign ordinance with the Commission. She explained that the tenants requested the proposed sign 8 because the tenants require visibility for their businesses. She stated that the Applicant did 9 mention a need for a height variance and did recognize the driveway setback. She stated that 10 based upon staff review there would be additional variances required noting that the pylon sign 11 is not allowed. She stated that the only exception in the City is the commercial zoning for gas 12 stations, otherwise all businesses are required to utilize a ground or sign. In addition, there is a 13 limit to the allowable square footage of a sign. The applicant is proposing a sign larger than what 14 is allowed as a ground sign. 15 16 Jerry Kellgren, currently treasurer for the condominium association, explained that the reason for 17 the sign is to provide visibility. He stated that the sign is strictly for identification and visibility. 18 He further explained that they are requesting the variance in order to have the sign at least 7 to 8 19 feet off the ground in order to avoid having to remove a tree in the vicinity. He stated that if 20 they used a ground sign the tree would block the sign and therefore, have to be removed. He 21 explained that the current landscaping includes scrubs and rock noting that it would be kept 22 basically the same except to possibly add more shrubs. 23 24 Chair Melsha asked for further clarification for the proposed location of the sign. Mr. Kellgren 25 reviewed the location of the sign stating that the sign would be to the right of the entrance. He 26 stated that the drive up teller would be removed from the location. 27 28 Chair Melsha recommended that they work with the staff and present a different plan that would 29 be more in line with the current sign ordinance. Commissioner Tillman suggested modeling 30 their design to be similar to the sign used at the Walgreens or the dental office across from TCF. 31 Kevin Applequist, owner, asked for further clarification of the type of sign used by the dental 32 office. Commissioner Tillman clarified and suggested that they drive by to get a better visual of 33 what the sign would look like. 34 35 Commissioner Hanson clarified that the monument sign would probably only require one 36 variance versus the number of variances they are currently requesting. 37 38 Chair Melsha encouraged them to contact and discuss the issues with staff. He further explained 39 the process noting that they would have to fill out forms for the new variance request for another 40 public hearing. 41 42 Chair Melsha closed the public hearing at 11:43 p.m. 43 44 Motion by Commissioner Chair Melsha, seconded by Commissioner Stromgren, to recommend 45 denial of the Northgate Condominium Owner's Association and LeRoy Sign Co., 2500 Highway Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 15, 2003 Page 20 1 88, sign variance requests because the requests are too far out of line from the City's sign 2 ordinance and a pylon sign is not allowed by the sign ordinance. 3 4 Motion carried unanimously 5 6 IX. INFORMATION AND DISCUSSION. 7 8 Vice Chair Stille agreed with Mr. Cavanaugh's statement regarding removal of signs that 9 have expired or are negative in nature. He suggested reviewing the signage requirements in 10 order to determine how long a sign should be up and when it should be removed. 11 12 X. ANNOUNCEMENTS. 13 NONE 14 15 XI.

Shardlow, AICP, Dahlgren, Shardlow and Uban, Inc. SUBJECT: Sketch Plan Review for the Village at St. Anthony PUD LOCATION: Property Commonly Known as Apache Plaza Mall, generally bounded by Silver Lane on the north, Silver Lake Road on the east, the Soo Line Railroad Right-of- Way on the south, and Stinson Boulevard on the west. APPLICANT: Pratt Ordway Properties; Robert Muir Company; Dominium, Inc.; Hunt Associates BACKGROUND On August 19, 2003, the Planning Commission will meet to conduct a "sketch plan review" of the Village at St. Anthony PUD. This is the first official step in the development review and approval process for the proposed Village at St. Anthony PUD. The information that has been submitted by the development team at this time is actually consistent with the level of information required for the Preliminary Development Plan stage, as defined by the PUD ordinance. Since this is a major project and one of the first to be processed through the new PUD ordinance, we have attached a copy of the ordinance for your reference. Many of you participated in the city's planning process that preceded the developer selection process. You will remember from that process that we intentionally stopped at the point of articulating design principles and objectives, and we anticipated the preparation and adoption of specific design standards when the actual development was proposed. Therefore, attached for your review at this time is the Design Framework Manual for this development. It contains a complete summary of the entire planning process. It also includes a more detailed description of City o St. Anthony Village Planning Commission August 13, 2003 Page 2 the project character and identity, as well as many images that explain the project. Because of the completeness of this document, that information will not be duplicated in this report. This has been a long and deliberate process and it has been difficult for several reasons. We are pleased that it is finally starting to come together and that the vision for the redevelopment of this important property can become a reality. While this has been a long process, it has also been a long time since it has come before the Planning Commission in an official capacity. There have been several significant changes and the Commission should feel free to ask all of the questions that you may have to get comfortable with reviewing the Preliminary Development Plan and Preliminary Plat application materials at the scheduled public hearing on September 16, 2003. The entire development team will be present and they will make a presentation to the Commission on Tuesday, August 19, 2003. The Commission should consider this as your time to become informed. Please treat this as an informal session and ask questions freely, whenever you need clarification or more information. Remember that the PUD is still a zoning approval document. It is appropriate to discuss the types of uses within the project and many aspects of those structures and sites, but it is not appropriate to attempt to regulate which specific businesses may choose to purchase one of these sites. As long as the design standards and use standards are met, any business could locate within the area. I am sorry to have to report that I will not be able to attend this first meeting. I have a scheduling conflict that I cannot change. I will be at the public hearing on September 16 and I would welcome the opportunity to meet with the Commission in a workshop prior to that meeting, if that would be helpful. You should also feel comfortable either calling me directly at 612-312- 2131 or emailing me at jshardlow @dsuplan.com with any questions you may have.

Hall, Assistant City Manage SUBJECT: Opinion Signs Background: Earlier this year, the topic of opinion signs came up. Attached please find the City Attorney Jerry Gilligan's letter at that time. I spoke to Mr. Gilligan recently and he reiterated that while the City can regulate opinion signs by the way of providing restrictions on the size, location, and perhaps number of opinion signs, the City cannot totally prohibit opinion signs or regulate the message, including lettering or coloring, on the signs. Mr. Gilligan also said the City could possibility ban offensive (strong profanity) content from opinion signs, but that's about as far as the City should go. Any limitations beyond the items mentioned would be considered infringement on First Amendment or freedom of speech rights. Mr. Gilligan said that it does make sense to address the opinion sign issue and look at an amendment to the City's sign ordinance, as opinion signs are not explicitly defined while political signs are at Section 1400.08, subd. 1 and under definitions (see attached). Mr. Gilligan believes the language can be cleaned up in the sign ordinance to better differentiate election (political) signs from opinion signs in light of the current day. City staff checked into the New Brighton ordinance and found they don't specifically address opinion signs in residential areas in their code. New Brighton staff said it has been city policy to treat opinion signs the same as election signs, meaning that one-six square foot (maximum) sign is allowed per right of way. They don't monitor how long opinion signs.are up for as it's a staffing issue. Attached find excerpts from the New Brighton Zoning Code for reference. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that Planning Commissioners discuss appropriate zoning parameters for opinion signs and address the language in the sign ordinance pertaining to political signs. The Planning Commission should then touch base with the City Council with a recommendation. Attachments: _ • 1/9/03 Letter from Jerry Gilligan • Excerpts from City of St. Anthony Chapter 14, Sign Ordinance, definitions and Section 1400.08, subd. 1 • Excerpts from City of New Brighton Zoning Code, Chapter 9, Signs JEROME P. GILLIGAN (612)340-2962 Fax(612)340-2643 gilligan.jerome®dorseylaw.com January 9, 2003 Mr. Michael Morrison City Manager City of St. Anthony 3301 Silver Lake Road N.E. St. Anthony, MN 55418-1603 Re: Regulation of Opinion Sign on Residential Property Dear Mike: The City of St. Anthony's sign ordinance (Chapter 14 of the City Code) does not permit lawn signs to be located on residential property stating an opinion on issues, except to the extent such sign qualifies as a political sign under the sign ordinance which are permitted to be located on lawns during election season. In Goward v. City of Minneapolis, 456 N.W.2d 460 (Minn. App. 1990), the Minnesota Court of Appeals held that a Minneapolis ordinance imposing a near total ban on noncommercial lawn signs in residential zones was unconstitutional since it violates the first amendment. The Court went on to say that this ruling does not prevent the city from enacting reasonable ordinances limiting sign dimensions, establishing setback requirements, and so forth. In Branton v. City of New Brighton, 519 N.W.2d 243 (Minn. App. 1994), the Minnesota Court of Appeals held that a New Brighton ordinance which allowed residents to post on their property one noncommercial opinion sign year around and additional, campaign and/or noncommercial opinion signs during the election season up to one per ballot issue and candidate, does not violate the first amendment, and the Court upheld the ordinance. The Court stated the ordinance balanced the City's inherent substantial Mr. Michael Morrison February 12, 2002 Page 2 interest in aesthetics, residential home value, visual clutter, and traffic hazards with the right of its residents to express opinions on nonpolitical, political and business-oriented issues. The Court distinguished the New Brighton ordinance from the Minneapolis ordinance in Goward, on the basis that the City of New Brighton does not totally ban anything, but carefully allows any opinion on any issue subject to the same time frames as political speech. Based on the holdings of the Minnesota Court of Appeals in Bra on and Goward, I believe that a court would find the provisions of the City of St. Anthony's sign ordinance totally banning opinion signs on residential property, except to the extent constituting a political sign which can be located during the election season, as unconstitutional since it violates the first amendment provisions related to freedom of speech and expression. For your reference I have enclosed copies of the Bra on and Goward decisions. Should you have any questions please call me. Yours truly, Jerome P. Gilligan JPG/pmh Enclosures o� .St fah aK S c — . � 5,0 n Subd. 17. Marquee Sign. Any sign attached to, in any manner, or made a part of a marquee. Subd. 18.

Hall, Assistant City Manager4-k SUBJECT: Restaurant parking requirements / Background: At last month's Council meeting, it was suggested that the Planning Commission study the parking ordinance to determine if it is unnecessarily restrictive when compared to other cities. If it is, the Council would like the Planning Commission to begin the process of amending the ordinance so the City can obviate the need for future parking variances. Staff Recommendation: Since the City has recently granted two significant parking variances, studying the City's parking ordinance makes sense. Staff recommends the Planning Commission begin the process of studying the commercial parking ordinance. ai thon Oills e Northwest Quadrant/Apache Redevelopment Schedule August 12, 7 p.m. City Council: Tax Increment Financing(TIF) hearing resolution August 19, 7 p.m. Planning Commission: Sketch Plan Review of Planned Unit Development (PUD) August 26, 7 p.m. City Council: Sketch Plan Review of PUD; Term sheet approval; Resolution on feasibility study on 39th Avenue improvements; Resolution on sale of CUB Foods (Tankenoff property) September 9, 7 p.m. City Council: Environmental Assessment Worksheet(EAW) resolution September 16, 7 p.m. Planning Commission: Public hearing on preliminary development plan and preliminary plat; Review redevelopment plan September 23, 7 p.m. City Council: Public hearing on TIF plan; Preliminary development plan and preliminary plat approvals; Final development agreement approval; Possible discussion on strategies for property purchase
