PUBLIC HEARINGS. 23 A. C.M.

Group, Inc., which would allow the operation of a 27 convenience store with a fuel area at 2400-37th Avenue NE. 3 In his staff report, City Manager Mornson informed those present that this property is �j located at 2400-37th Avenue N.E., and added that C.M. Group, Inc., is requesting two 30 variances on the building and two variances on the canopy. Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes 0 August 16, 1994 Page 2 1 A video was shown depicting the variance requests. In regard to the building, the 2 variances would be for the south side of the structure and one on the east side. A variance 3 would be requested for the canopy on the west side and one on the north side. All gas 4 pumps and the present canopy would be removed and the ground would be restored 5 according to PCA standards. 6 Chair Gondorchin asked the Commissioners if they had any questions of staff. 7 Commissioner Franzese noted two of the driveways would be closed and asked which 8 driveways these would be, the explanation for their closure and the impact on traffic in 9 the area. 10 The architect for the site plan pointed out the two entrances closest to the corner would be 11 closed and explained how this will improve traffic circulation on the site. 12 Commissioner Faust asked if there would be a right-hand turn lane exit or entrance for 463 people entering from 37th Avenue. The architect stated he didn't think traffic would be a 4 problem,that people would probably use the lights. 15 City Manager Morrison was asked if traffic flow was a City issue and he responded that 16 streets were the City's responsibility but driveways were the responsibility of the property 17 owner. 18 Commissioner Faust inquired about monitoring wells. City Manager Momson explained 19 the process of detecting contamination on-site. The architect explained that the new 20 owners have had an environmental study done since taking over the property and will 21 take full responsibility for getting the site cleaned up according to PCA standards. They 22 are also in the process of determining how much impacted soil there is to remove. The 23 well had been put in by the previous owners as part of the environmental study. 24 Commissioner Horst inquired if the City had any plans regarding sidewalks as part of 25 traffic control. City Manager Morrison was not aware of any. 26 The architect explained their plans consisted of leveling the site, cleaning to PCA 27 standards, removing the old piping and contaminated soil, basically starting from scratch 28 and building a new structure. They need the variances to eliminate congestion at the 29 islands and would like the size of the structure to conform to industry standards. He stated that they were willing to do whatever was necessary to clean up the site and to le eliminate the eyesore. Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 3 1 Chair Gondorchin commented on the pylon regulations with signage. He thought the 2 pylon measured approximately 185 square feet and noted the requirement that the bottom 3 of the pylon must be 7 feet from the ground. 4 The architect stated they were willing to meet any City requirements. They had initially 5 thought a monument would suit their purposes better but would not provide adequate 6 square footage. He also said there would not be a problem.meeting the City criteria for 7 footage. A question was asked regarding the price sign and the architect said they would 8 not be seeking a variance for that sign. 9 Chair Gondorchin asked about the proposed hours of operation. The architect stated they 10 do not want to be a 24-hour operation and would comply with whatever hours the City 11 set. 12 Commissioner Makowske inquired about what was being done regarding drainage. The 13 architect responded they would likely raise the building three or four inches to keep any standing water off neighboring properties. He indicated that the initial system was not working properly and that construction, excavation and cleaning of the property would be 16 done according to PCA requirements. 17 The location of the canopy's position on the diagram was explained by the architect. 18 Commissioner Bergstrom asked if the neighbors had been contacted and asked for their 19 opinions on having a convenience store. The architect stated he called the apartment 20 owners and explained thoroughly what they were planning but did not receive any calls 21 back. 22 Commissioner Faust wanted to know if a marketing survey or study had been done to 23 indicate the need for this type of store. The architect stated they usually look at traffic 24 counts and do a rooftop count but didn't feel an actual survey was necessary. 25 Commissioner Faust also wanted to know if they felt there would be enough business to 26 support the venture. The architect thought there would be since they could count on the 27 overflow business from SuperAmerica. 28 Commissioner Makowske asked how the size of the store would rate against industry 29 standards. The architect explained the standards would be from 2,400 to 3,000 square 30 footage and the store would fall within those parameters. 49 St. Anthony resident Dennis Cavanaugh, 2909 St. Anthony Boulevard, stated he was in 32 favor of the project. He thought the area as it appears now looks blighted and Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 4 1 commended the owners for wanting to clean up the site. He stated he fully supports the 2 variances. 3 St. Anthony resident Bob Taylor owns property directly behind the station at 3639 4 Stinson Boulevard and stated the property is now an eyesore and he has no problem with 5 a convenience store. He did express concerns over the hours the business would be open 6 and suggested it not be open for business past 11:00 p.m. 7 A land owner on the east side of the property, Mike Lupient, wanted to know if anything 8 would be done with the existing fence. The architect explained they would totally 9 replace it with a 6-foot high fence. 10 Chair Gondorchin closed the public hearing at 7:26 P.M. 11 Chair Gondorchin stated the variances with setbacks for the canopy, consideration of 12 hours, and the pylon requirements should conform to the dimensions of the station that Wwent up recently on 40th or 33rd. 14 Commissioner Faust stated he had one resident call him who was against the plan as the 15 resident thought there was an overabundance of convenience stores in the community and 16 was concerned about parking. This resident also wanted to know about sidewalks. 17 Commissioner Faust noted that staff has indicated the request meets parking requirements 18 and the applicant feels traffic counts will sustain the business. 19 Chair Gondorchin recommended looking at the setbacks on the south side and the back 20 yard. Commissioner Bergstrom stated the neighbors and owners had expressed their 21 concerns but didn't seem to be concerned with a convenience store in the location. 22 Commissioner Thompson stated it was a blighted area now and he liked the proposed 23 store. Commissioner Franzese stated her only concern was with traffic entering and 24 exiting from Stinson and wanted to know if staff had looked into whether there should be 25 a right-turn-only lane. 26 Commissioner Faust stated an 11:00 p.m. closing would be consistent with other stores in 27 the area. He asked Mr. Taylor if he knew there would be a trash dumpster on the 28 northeast corner of the property. Mr. Taylor was not aware of this but thought there 29 would not be a problem because of the fence. Chair Gondorchin wanted to know if the area provides access wide enough for a trash truck. The architect said there would be enough footage,the dumpsters would be 32 enclosed and the trucks would access through a gate on the enclosure. • Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 5 1 Commissioner Makowske asked City Manager Morrison, if with a 13-foot variance, there 2 would be enough accessibility on the east side if there were a fire. City Manager 3 Morrison said there would be. 4 Motion by Commissioner Faust, second by,Commissioner Bergstrom to recommend. 5 Council approval of the conditional use permit requested by C.M. Group, Inc. for the 6 operation of a convenience store with a fuel area at 2400 - 37th Avenue NE with the 7 following conditions: 8 1. Structure must meeting existing building requirements. 9 2. Ground cleaning, including fuel spills be removed,and tank removal as required 10 by PCA. 11 3. The trash dumpster to be located on the south end will be enclosed in material 12 similar to that used for the main structure. 4. The sign not exceed current requirements and no variances granted regarding 14 signage. 15 5. Landscaping to include a fence to be installed on the south and east sides of the 16 property to shield residential areas, and trees and shrubs to be planted according to 17 recommendations of City Staff. 18 6. Hours will be limited from 5:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. 19 A lengthy debate was held regarding the hours of operation. Commissioner Horst 20 favored a midnight closing since it would allow the owner to remain more competitive 21 with other businesses. Commissioner Faust favored an 11:00 p.m. close due to the close 22 proximity of residences. Commissioner Berg agreed and noted that variances closer to 23 residential property were also under consideration. Commissioner Franzese spoke in 24 support of a midnight closing,noting the business will closer earlier if there is not 25 business, but she does not want to restrict them. This discussion concluded in a majority 26 of the Commissioners favoring an 11:00 p.m. close. 27 Motion carried unanimously. Chair Gondorchin urged the petitioner to attend the City Council meeting on August 23, 1994, for the final commitment of their conditional use permit. • Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 6 1 Motion by Faust, second by Bergstrom to recommend Council approval of the front, rear 2 and both sideyard variances requested by C.M. Group, Inc. for the operation of a 3 convenience store with a fuel area at 2400-37th Avenue NE with the following 4 conditions: 5 1. Two variances to the structure, one on the south side for 7 feet and one on the 6 backyard setback for 13 feet. 7 2. Two variances for the canopy, one on the west end for 12 feet and one on the 8 north end for 20 feet. 9 Motion carried unanimously. 10 Chair Gondorchin urged the petitioner to attend the City Council meeting on August 23, 11 1994, for the final commitment of their variance. B. School District#282, conditional use request, for 3600 Highcrest Road(Wilshire Park Elementary School). 14 At 7:46 P.M., Chair Gondorchin opened the public hearing for a conditional use permit 15 requested by School District#282 which would allow the placement of two classroom 16 portable units on Wilshire Park Elementary School property for a period of 24 months. 17 In his staff report, City Manager Mornson informed those present that this property is 18 located at 3600 Highcrest Road in a Recreational/Open Space District. He added that the 19 Planning Commission, in 1993, approved the placement of one unit for a period of 24 20 months. The School District is now proposing to remove the existing unit and replace it 21 with a two classroom portable. He stated the school district did not need to have a public 22 hearing but at the hearing one year ago, it was suggested the district appear before the 23 Planning Commission so there was no appearance of issues not being dealt with in a 24 public manner. 25 A discussion was held with the City Manager being asked what would happen at the end 26 of the 24 months if the school district needs an extension of the 24-month period. The 27 City Manager explained the School District would come before the Planning Commission 28 at the end of the 24 months and request an extension at that time. Dr. Abrahamson stated the District wanted the use of the trailer for the first and fourth grades, on an in-and-out program basis and not as an all-day assignment. He stated the 31 trailer looked more like a house with siding and a gabled roof. In response to questions • Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 7 1 from the Commissioners regarding the 24-month timeframe, Dr. Abrahamson responded 2 that, hopefully, 24 months would be adequate; that all available trailer space would be 3 used; and that air conditioning is an option with the trailer but will not be used. 4 Chair Gondorchin closed the public hearing at 7:58 P.M. 5 Motion by Commissioner Makowske, second by Commissioner Franzese to recommend 6 Council approval of the conditional use permit request by School District#282, to place 7 two classroom portable units on Wilshire Park Elementary School property for a period 8 of 24 months with the following conditions: 9 1. Limit to 24 months from the time the unit is in place. 10 2. Removal of the existing unit 60 days after the new unit is in place. 11 3. The heating and electrical systems are reviewed and approved by Public Works Vand Fire personnel. 13 Motion carried unanimously. 14 Chair Gondorchin urged the petitioner to attend the City Council meeting on August 23, 15 1994, for the final commitment of their conditional use permit. 16 C. Payless Cashways, Inc., ordinance amendment request 17 At 8:00 P.M., Chair Gondorchin opened the public hearing for an ordinance amendment 18 requested by Payless Cashways, Inc. which would allow Knox/Menards-type businesses 19 to apply for a conditional use permit in a Commercial District. 20 In his staff report, City Manager Morrison informed those present that under the City's 21 current ordinance,this type of business is not listed as a permitted conditional use. 22 Currently, Knox is exploring options to locate a facility in the Apache Mall area. He 23 stated that the City's current ordinance would need to be amended to allow for this type of 24 operation. 25 City Manager Mornson explained that representatives of Payless Cashways were not 26 present at this meeting but would be present at meetings addressing a conditional use �7 permit, a lot split and discussion on where they would actually locate on the site. • Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 8 1 Commissioner Faust wanted to know if this applicant's expectations were dependent or 2 independent of CUB's intentions. City Manager Mornson replied that at this point the 3 company was thinking independently of CUB. 4 A discussion ensued regarding what types of ventures would be acceptable under the 5 current ordinance and that a lumber yard would need a conditional use permit. 6 Commissioner Faust stated he had received calls from Jim Higgins and Doug Jones who 7 were very concerned about being locked into this type of operation.and not being open to 8 other possible developers. They were concerned about the changes of use in the area a 9 lumber operation would bring in. They were concerned about the aesthetics of the 10 operation. Generally, lumber yards are dirty and there is an increase in truck noise. 11 Commissioner Faust expressed concern about the apartment dwellers on the north side of 12 the site. He stated there was a very probable potential for negative impact on the 13 apartment dwellers. Commissioner Faust was also concerned about possible negative 14 environmental impact and water drainage. He also mentioned the need to be careful Wwhen dealing with large companies as there could be legal setbacks. 16 Commissioner Makowske stated he had also received calls from Jim Higgins and Doug 17 Jones. He stated that Mr. Higgins was also concerned about the increase in traffic. Mr. 18 Higgins was on the Economic Redevelopment Task Force and was interested in seeing 19 the area being used as residential. Six or seven different uses had been proposed for the 20 Apache site by the Redevelopment Task Force, with residential use being one of them. 21 A discussion was held by the Commissioners regarding the economic factors and tax 22 impact between a residential usage versus commercial usage. 23 Commissioner Horst requested that it be noted in the minutes he would be abstaining 24 from any discussion or votes regarding the proposed venture due to a possible conflict of 25 business interest. 26 City Manager Momson said one way to regulate the type of use of the site would be to tie 27 the conditional use permit to the size and type of structure allowed so that a lumber yard 28 by itself would not be allowed as a usage. - 29 Chair Gondorchin expressed concerns about this type of operation's impact on residents 30 in the area, the height of the proposed structure and if multiple level storage would be allowed. Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 9 1 City Manager Morrison explained the tentative plans call for an approximate 75,000 2 square foot facility with 60-65,00 square feet of outside storage. They have built seven 3 similar facilities throughout the country, this would be the first one in Minnesota. He 4 said that this would be a new type of building with outside storage being enclosed within 5 a building so it would not be comparable to other types of buildings for its value for tax 6 purposes. He also noted that this system does not use loud speakers and they plan to 7 direct lighting into the parking area. City Manager Morrison explained these types of 8 issues can,be addressed with the site plan and restrictions can be placed since a 9 conditional use permit would be required. 10 Mr. Cavanaugh spoke in opposition to the proposed ordinance amendment, commenting 11 on declining commercial property values and the impact it is having on increasing taxes 12 to residential property. He questioned when and if CUB would actually decide to locate 13 at Apache since there has been on-going discussions of this type for quite some time. Mr. 14 Cavanaugh stated he looked at different lumber yards to find out where they were located 15 and found them along freeways, in light industrial areas, and along the River. However, �6 he did not find any within a retail shopping center. He commented that Apache, when 7 constructed, was on the "cutting edge" but has now become obsolete with many stores 18 moving out. 19 Mr. Cavanaugh stated he feels a lumber yard is not compatible with this area due to the 20 location of residential and apartments and the low profile of Apache. He also questioned 21 the amount of lumber sales in a mature community. He urged the City to obtain 22 professionals to determine the highest and best use of this site and to calculate what the 23 tax impact will actually be. He also urged the Commission to recommend against the 24 ordinance amendment request and to consider placing a moratorium on Apache until 25 professionals can complete a study and make recommendations for this 56 acre site. 26 Jim Higgins, 2712 St. Anthony Boulevard, concurred and asked if the City was not 27 putting the "cart before the horse". He asserted that this request is out of sequence_and 28 should be tabled until a solid proposal is received from CUB. He reiterated Mr. 29 Cavanaugh's suggestion that a professional be hired to look at the acreage available and 30 determine the best use. 31 Chair Gondorchin closed the public hearing at 8:38 P.M. 32 Commissioner Franzese read a portion of the Ordinance that lists permitted and 43 conditional uses in a Commercial District. She emphasized that the purpose is to 4 minimize impact to residential districts and questioned whether a lumber yard fits in with 35 these types of uses. She commented that while there are uses the residents would like,by Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 10 1 economic necessity the City needs to develop this site. Commissioner Franzese stated 2 she has heard comments that residential will not provide an adequate tax base, but she 3 would like to see the actual figures. 4 Commissioner Faust suggested the Commission look at the merits of this request and 5 make a recommendation one way or the other. He did not favor tabling. 6 Motion by Makowske, second by Franzese to recommend Council approval of an 7 amendment to the City's current ordinance, Section 1635.03,permitted uses, to allow a 8 lumber yard business in conjunction with a.hardwarelbuilding supply store to apply for a 9 conditional use permit in the Commercial District subject to proper screening to assure it 10 is compatible with the neighborhood. 11 Commissioner Makowske stated the real question is whether this is a good use for St. 12 Anthony. 63 Commissioner Bergstrom stated that in looking at a hardware and building supply 4 business with a lumber yard,the business could range from something quite small to 15 something very large. He felt a smaller sized business of this type, properly designed, 16 may be a compatible use. 17 Chair Gondorchin agreed the concern is whether making an amendment results in loss of 18 control over those important issues. 19 Commissioner Bergstrom questioned whether it was possible to draft language that would 20 make this type of use more restrictive. City Manager Morrison explained the City 21 Attorney felt the language could be more restrictive or it could be drafted to allow the 22 Planning Commission and Council to place restrictive conditions when considering the 23 conditional use permit. 24 Commissioner Makowske questioned whether the size of the lumber yard could be tied 25 into the size of the hardware/building store with a"not to exceed" square footage. He 26 commented that he feels details for a lumber yard, connected with a hardwarelbuilding 27 supply store, could be worked out. 28 Commissioner Franzese stated she seconded the motion so the matter could be discussed. 29 She indicated she may be able to support a building supply lumber yard if a lot of �0 quantifiers(screening, size, etc.) are established so the use fits into the neighborhood. Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 11 1 Commissioner Faust questioned the ability to screen a lumber yard from a three story 2 apartment building. He asserted that vague language may allow law suits, not more 3 latitude. 4 Commissioner Franzese questioned whether the Commission has enough information to 5 reach a decision tonight and called for the vote. She noted that the Commission's minutes 6 will reflect their concerns regarding a lumber yard. 7 Voting on the motion: 8 Aye: Bergstrom and Makowske 9 Nay: Faust, Franzese, Gondorchin and Thompson 10 Abstain: Horst 11 Motion failed, Motion by Faust to recommend denial of an amendment to the City's current ordinance, *3 Section 1635.03,permitted uses, to allow a lumber yard business in conjunction with a 14 hardware/building supply store to apply for a conditional use permit in the Commercial 15 District based on the rationale that a lumber yard is not consistent with permitted and 16 conditional uses as defined in the Zoning Ordinance. 17 Chair Gondorchin asserted this motion is not needed and declared it to be out of order. 18 Commissioner Franzese restated some of the Commission's concerns as being: 19 1. The Commission does not have enough information concerning liability issues for 20 the City. 21 2. The Commission is unsure how to include proper and adequate restrictions for a 22 conditional use of this type. 23 3. The Commission feels a lumber yard use, in certain configurations, may not be 24 compatible. 25 Commissioner Horst indicated that while he abstained from the discussion and vote,he 26 will represent the Commission's concerns to the Council as stated. 27 Chair Gondorchin urged the petitioner to attend the City Council meeting on August 23, 1994, for the Council's decision of the ordinance.amendment request. Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 12 1 VI. GROUND SIGNS. 2 In his staff report, City Manager Momson informed those present that staff is suggesting 3 changes to the City's ordinance relating to height and copy surface of ground signs. 4 The Commission discussed previous sign variance considerations and how this will 5 impact multiple tenant buildings. 6 Commissioner Franzese indicated her preference for monument signs versus pylon signs 7 and that it was unfortunate the City cannot accommodate the C.M. Group signage needs 8 with a monument sign. 9 City Manager Morrison explained that since the Zoning Ordinance is involved,this type 10 of amendment will require a public hearing and suggested the Commission schedule one 11 for their September meeting. A discussion ensued regarding signage for churches located in a residential area. 13 Commissioner Makowske suggested the amendment be revised regarding churches to 14 indicate "except R-1, RIA and R2". Chair Gondorchin preferred to not make this change 15 in case a residential development wants to erect a ground sign. He noted that the variance 16 procedure could be used. Commissioner Bergstrom agreed. Commissioner Horst noted 17 this would add new language to restrict and may result in liability. 18 Following further discussion,the majority of Commissioners indicated a preference for 19 deleting the additional language. 20 Consensus was reached to direct staff to schedule a public hearing on zoning ordinance 21 amendment relating to ground signs at the September 20, 1994 meeting. 22 VII. CORNER LOT FENCE POLICY/ORDINANCE. 23 In his staff report, City Manager Morrison informed those present of staff s recommended 24 wording change to the City's corner lot fence policy to address height in situations where 25 a side yard and back yard abut. 26 Commissioner Makowske explained that the existing fence policy may be too vague and the Council had requested a recommendation from the Planning Commission. Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 13 1 Discussion ensued regarding conflicts that arise when a six foot back yard fence abuts an 2 interior side yard in front of the primary structure where only a four foot fence is allowed. 3 Discussion was also held regarding property that abuts a public alley. 4 Commissioner Makowske suggested that a six foot fence be allowed in back yards that 5 abut an alley. 6 With regard to the language proposed by staff-and more detailed language proposed by 7 Commissioner Makowske, City Manager Mornson stated his preference to keep the 8 language simple and open for interpretation. He explained that making an ordinance 9 amendment requires a public hearing; however, only a motion is needed if it is handled 10 through a policy. 11 Commissioner Franzese expressed concern that the language may be too vague and 12 difficult for residents to interpret. She also suggested that the word "may" be revised to 13 "shall". 04 The Commission agreed to consider language as suggested by staff, changing "may" to 15 "shall" and adding a section to 1320.03, Sub. 3 to state "On an interior side yard where it 16 abuts a back yard on a corner lot, a six foot fence is permitted." 17 Consensus was reached to direct staff to schedule a public hearing on an zoning 18 ordinance amendment relating to corner lot fences at the September 20, 1994 meeting. 19 VIII. MISCELLANEOUS. 20 A. List of needed information from applicants for Planning Commission items. 21 In his staff report, City Manager Morrison reviewed staffs recommendation on the items 22 that applicants need to submit prior to the Tuesday meeting of the Planning Commission 23 or City Council meeting. 24 Commissioner Faust asked if staff enforces a cut off date for applications or revisions. 25 City Manager Mornson explained they allow until ten days prior to the public hearing so 26 notice can be published. Commissioner Faust spoke in support of establishing and 27 maintaining a deadline to avoid preferential treatment. Consensus was reached to approve the submittal requirements as recommended by staff. Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes August 16, 1994 Page 14 1 City Manager Mornson reviewed upcoming agenda items. Commissioner Makowske 2 relayed that the Council indicated the Planning Commission may be called upon to hold 3 more than one meeting per month based on anticipated activity. 4 Commissioner Franzese extended the Commission's welcome to new City Manager 5 Momson. 6 IX.
