ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JANUARY 8, 2024 <br />Community Development Director Jagoe reported this was correct. She stated the language <br />within State Statute requires at least 20% of the development has to have units that meet <br />affordability at 60% AMI or below. <br />Mayor Grant discussed the Met Council goals for Arden Hills, noting these were strictly goals <br />and not requirements. <br />Community Development Director Jagoe stated this was what the City was asked to achieve. <br />Councilmember Holden recommended the AM language be amended to ensure that the units <br />could be at 60% AMI or less. <br />Community Development Director Jagoe indicated she could make this language change. <br />Councilmember Holden questioned if Ramsey County completed the traffic study in October. <br />Community Development Director Jagoe reported the traffic study was conducted (cars were <br />counted) in October. She stated the City does not have the final report yet. <br />Councilmember Monson thanked Community Development Director Jagoe for her detailed <br />presentation. <br />Councilmember Fabel commented on how AMI (Area Median Income) was defined and noted <br />60% AMI would be a family income of $74,520 in the metro area. <br />Mayor Grant discussed how AMI fluctuated based on interest rates. <br />Councilmember Holden reported the Met Council sets AMI rates on a yearly basis. She asked if <br />AMI was based on the seven county metro area or the ten county metro area. <br />City Administrator Perrault stated AMI was based on the Twin Cities Metropolitan Region. He <br />indicated it was his understanding this was based on the seven county metro area. <br />Mayor Grant opened the public hearing at 8:47 p.m. <br />George Winiecke, 4175 Old State Highway 10, explained he has spoken to the Council in the <br />past. He expressed concern with the fact the Council was moving forward with a development <br />with such a high level of residential units in such a small area. He commented on how the large <br />number of residential units would be a burden to Arden Hills residents. He implored the Council <br />to reevaluate and reconsider this development and to go back to the original plan. While he <br />understood there was a need for housing, he suggested the density be reduced. <br />Kristine Poelzer, 1870 Indian Place, addressed the Council regarding TCAAP stating she has <br />attended many meetings over the years. She explained she was once opposed to this development. <br />She discussed how a trail was proposed in her rear yard and she vehemently opposed this trail. <br />She indicated the Council, in their wisdom, approved this trail and she was delighted with how <br />the trail turned out. She stated she had full belief in what the JDA was doing. She explained she <br />appreciated all of the work Arden Hills staff and Councilmembers were putting into TCAAP. She <br />encouraged the Council to approve the proposed land use changes and rezoning. She stated she <br />
