MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 18, 2012 PC Agenda Item 3.A
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Meagan Beekman, City Planner
SUBJECT: Planning Case#12-009 - This application requires a PUBLIC HEARING
Applicant: 1201 County Road E LLC (TAT Properties LLC)
Property Location: 1201 West County Road E
Request: Preliminary and Final Plat, Master and Final Planned Unit Development
Requested Action
The applicant has requested a Preliminary and Final Plat, and Master and Final Planned Unit
Development (PUD) to subdivide the property at 1201 County Road E into two parcels and reuse
the existing building as a 120-unit apartment building with a mix of efficiency and one-bedroom
units.
Background
The property at 1201 County Road E is owned by TAT Properties, represented by Rob
Davidson. In March 2008, the City approved a request from TAT Properties and Northwestern
College granting an Interim Use Permit (IUP) at the former Holiday Inn property that would
allow the College to operate a student housing facility in the B-2 District. TAT Properties had
purchased the building and intended to lease it, in its entirety, to Northwestern College. The IUP
expired on May 30, 2011. Prior to the expiration of the IUP, the City approved a request by TAT
Properties to allow the student housing on a permanent basis provided that Northwestern College
remained the sole tenant of the building, and continued to operate and manage it. Citing a drop
in expected attendance and financing, Northwestern College withdrew their interest in the

property shortly after that approval. Northwestern College has since vacated the building.
At the time of the IUP approval, the City was just beginning the process of developing the
Guiding Plan for the B-2 District, which was ultimately adopted in October 2008. The City's
zoning regulations were consequently amended to incorporate the goals of the Guiding Plan for
the B-2 District shortly after it was adopted, including design standards for new construction.
In 2011, the City reviewed and approved a subsequent proposal from Select Senior Living to
convert the building into assisted senior housing. Select Senior Living has since ended their
negotiations with the property owner to purchase the property for this use.
1. Overview of Request
TAT Properties is now requesting a Master and Final PUD to allow the reuse of the existing
building at 1201 County Road E as 120 rental units. The existing building is 155 units, 70 of
which would be converted into 35 one-bedroom units. There are 5 existing one-bedroom
units in the property; therefore, the final mix would include 40 one-bedroom and 80
efficiency apartments, for a total of 120 units.
The applicant would install a counter top, sink, under counter refrigerator, base cabinet
drawers, and a cook top and oven in each unit. The applicant would bring the property up to
building code requirements, and is proposing improvements to the main floor in terms of
tenant amenities (Attachment A). The applicant is requesting a phasing plan for the building
that would allow him to complete renovations on the first two floors only. It is unclear from
the application how many one-bedroom units would be included in the first phase. The
remainder of the units, located on the third and fourth floors, would be converted over time,
as the market dictates. The third and fourth floors would remain vacant in the interim.
At this time there is no plan for reuse of the McGuire's space, or the banquet facilities that
are located on the main floor of the hotel. It is anticipated that these spaces would be reused
at some point, though it is unclear what that might be. These spaces would remain vacant in
the interim.
In addition to the request for Master and Final PUD, TAT Properties is proposing to
subdivide the property into two parcels, reserving the eastern two acres of the site for a future
development option that has yet to be determined. The submitted plans include a conceptual
drawing of what might be possible on Lot 2, but the applicant is not seeking approval for
development on Lot 2 at this time. In order to accommodate the request for the subdivision,

and bring the property into compliance with the City's zoning regulations, the storm water
ponding and landscaped area would be shared by the two parcels.
This proposed use is distinct from the previous use of the building as student housing. As a
net lessee of the building, Northwestern College was able to exercise a great deal of control
over the students that lived in the building, and could guarantee that only students would be
allowed to live in it. This would not be the case with a privately owned landlord/tenant
situation, as is proposed here. The applicant believes the target market to be students, young
professionals and seniors.
The applicant has submitted a letter outlining the reasons for the request and responses to
previous staff comments (Attachment A); a traffic analysis (Attachment B); and a
Preliminary Plat plan set(Attachment F).

Plan Evaluation
1. Zoning Regulations
Multiple-family dwellings are permitted in the B-2 District through a PUD process. This
application is for the reuse of a former hotel into a multiple-family dwelling building. The
application is unique because the request is regarding the use of a building and site that are
already developed. The typical evaluation as to whether or not the proposed plan meets the
minimum requirements of the Zoning Code is more difficult given that there are certain
aspects of the site that cannot reasonably be altered, such as the setbacks of the building.
That being said there are certain reasonable improvements that can be required for the
property given the nature of the PUD process.
Lot 2 has been presented as a conceptual site plan and is not being reviewed at this time. At
the time Lot 2 is actually developed, an approved Master and Final PUD will be necessary to
evaluate the details of the development plan.
Section 1320.06—District Requirements Chart
A. Lot Size, Building Coverage, and Landscaping -Meets requirements:
Building %-Building Landscaping o
Lot Size Coverage(so Coverage Coverage(so Landscaping
Lot 1 -Holiday Inn Site 260,716 56,369 21.62% 74,467 28.56%

The maximum building coverage allowed in the B-2 District is 45%, while the minimum
landscaped coverage is 20%. The proposed redevelopment meets or exceeds both of
these requirements.
B. Setbacks -Meets requirements:
The Zoning Code requires a 20-foot front yard setback for at least 50% of the building
fronting County Road E in the B-2 District. The minimum setbacks in the B2 District are
20 feet in the front and rear and 10 feet in the side yards. The existing building exceeds
the side and rear setback requirements, and is set back 60 feet from the front property
line. The conceptual building shown on Lot 2 meets the minimum setbacks. This

indicates that it is possible for the property to comply with setbacks when it is ultimately
developed; however, the exact placement of the building on Lot 2 will be determined by a
future Master PUD review.
C. Density—Meets Requirements:
The maximum density for housing in the B-2 District is 20 units per acre. With the
proposed subdivision, Lot 1 would be 5.985 acres in size, which would allow up to 120
units. The proposal is for 120 units.
Section 1325— General Regulations
A. Landscaping and Tree Preservation- Section 1325.05 Subd. 1 and 1325.055
Caliper Inches Required—Exceeds requirements
A Landscaping Plan submitted by the applicant is included in Attachment F. Based on
the square footage of the proposed buildings the City Code requires 325 caliper inches of
trees to be located on site; however, existing and preserved trees on the site are permitted
to count towards this requirement. There are currently 490 caliper inches of trees on site.
In addition,the applicant is proposing to plant an additional 47 caliper inches of trees on
site. No trees are proposed to be removed at this time; however, it is likely that trees will
need to be removed with the development of Lot 2. The specific tree replacement
requirements will be calculated with the application for the development of Lot 2.
Trees along Street Frontage—Exceeds requirements
City Code requires that a minimum of one tree be planted along the right of way for
every 40 feet of street frontage. Lot 1 has 580 feet of frontage, which would require 14
trees along the street. The plan proposes 14 street trees with an additional 13 to be
planted elsewhere on site. Additional street trees will be required with the development
of Lot 2.
Perennials and Shrubberies— Cannot be determined by submitted plans
City Code requires that at least ten percent of the total landscaped area shall be covered
with perennials and/or shrubbery. For this particular project,the Code requires 7,860
square feet of perennials and shrubbery. On the applicant's submitted plans 8,571 square
feet are proposed; however, it is not clear if these will be new plantings or if the applicant
is suggesting that existing perennial planting beds meet this requirement. Staff has
reviewed the existing planting beds and has found that many of the perennial areas

PUD.docx
Page 5 of 16
indicated on the submitted plans consist of grass or rocks. These areas would need to be
converted to perennial plantings in order to meet the requirement of the Code.
Planting Islands—Exceeds requirements
City Code requires that at least ten percent of the parking area be occupied by planting
islands that are at least 150 square feet in size, edged in concrete curb, and have at least
one tree. Based on the proposed parking lot size, City Code would require 5,357 square
feet of parking lot islands. The applicant is proposing 5,905 square feet. All of the
proposed islands would meet the size and tree specifications of the Code.
Tree Selection—Meets requirements
The selection and size of trees that will be provided on site meet the requirements of the
Code.
B. Design Standards— Section 1325.05 Subd. 8
Because Lot 1 has already been developed, the majority of the design standards that
pertain to the B-2 District are not applicable to this proposal. That being said, there are
certain aspects of the design standards that do apply to this particular application in
regards to Lot 1. Lot 2 will be evaluated at the time that a proposal for development is
submitted.
The purpose of the B-2 Design Standards is to promote a high level of architectural,
landscaping, and site design in the District. The City seeks to create a unified,
harmonious, and high-quality environment to foster a distinct,positive, and successful
image of the City.
Site Furnishings and Seating Areas- Cannot be determined by submitted plans
An outdoor grilling area has been indicated on the plans; however, the applicant has not
included details on the layout of the site furnishings or seating areas. The Zoning Code
requires benches and decorative plantings near the primary entrances of the building, and
that seating areas be included as part of the grilling area.
Parking—Meets requirements
Parking is currently located to the rear of the building, which complies with the design
standards for the B-2 District. The Code also requires concrete curb and gutter around
the periphery of all parking lots, access roads, and parking lot islands. This requirement
is met by the proposed plans. Parking lot islands are included that meet the requirements

of the Code as well.
Lighting—Cannot be determined by submitted plans
A lighting plan has not been submitted; however the applicant understands that one is
required that conforms to the requirements of the Zoning Code, Building Code, and
Ramsey County Sheriff recommendations prior to the issuance of building permits.
The Ramsey County Sheriff has recommended that a minimum of three foot candles of
illumination be maintained at the ground level across the parking lot surface.
Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation—Meets requirements
The applicant is proposing six-foot concrete sidewalks with a six-foot boulevard adjacent
to County Road E and Lexington Avenue the length of both Lots 1 and 2, as is required
by Code.
Bike racks would be located on the interior of the building; however, additional
permanently affixed bicycle parking should be provided outside of the main entrance of
the building for visitors to the site.
C. Parking—Section 1325.06
The applicant is proposing 259 parking stalls on Lot 1. The Zoning Code requires two
stalls for every dwelling unit on site, which would require 240 parking stalls for this
project; however, given the number of efficiency units, it is likely that parking demand
will be less. At this time the restaurant and banquet facilities are not contemplated;
however, when they are reused the existing parking will need to accommodate the new
uses as well. Without a proposal for the development of the restaurant and banquet
facilities, it is very difficult to determine what the total parking demand for Lot 1 will be.
The lack of a plan for the redevelopment of such a significant portion of the building is a
concern in terms of calculating adequate parking demand for this site.
Lot 2 will be evaluated at the time of the development proposal based on that specific
use.
2. Guiding Plan for the B-2 District
The Guiding Plan for the B-2 District was accepted by the Council in October 2008. It
represents the guiding principles for redevelopment in the District. One of the main
challenges to the redevelopment of the B-2 District identified by the Guiding Plan is the
City of Arden Hills
Planning Commission Special Meeting for April 18, 2012

current configuration of traffic management on County Road E. In many instances, the
existing access driveways do not align with one another which, coupled with a 21-foot wide
shared center turn lane; create sporadic left turns along the corridor. In order to address this
issue, the Guiding Plan called for the realignment of driveways where possible, and the
creation of a new stop light in front of the former Holiday Inn property. The Guiding Plan
re-envisioned the former Holiday Inn property as a tear-down redevelopment that would
allow for the implementation of these long-range traffic management improvements.
The current proposal is to reuse the existing building, which does not lend itself to the full
implementation of the Guiding Plan, since the building itself impedes the installation of the
new stop light. Furthermore, the existing driveways are not ideally located to address the
broader traffic issues identified by the Guiding Plan. The existing building on Lot 1 is
presently situated in a way that allows the building to front on County Road E, with the
majority of parking behind, which is in keeping with the goals of the Guiding Plan; however,
the primary entrance will be located in the rear of the building, which is contrary to the desire
to bring front entrances to County Road E.
The subdivision of the lot into two offers an opportunity to increase the intensity and mixture
of uses on the site, which is a stated goal of the Guiding Plan, and decrease excess parking;
however, access to Lot 2 is limited to shared driveway access located in front of the former
Holiday Inn building on Lot 1. The County has reviewed the proposed plan and has
indicated that a right in/right out access on Lexington Avenue has not been approved for the
concept plan indicated in the application. The County's approval of a right in/right out is
contingent on the development of two smaller buildings on the corner to be used as retail and
a financial institution. The future development of Lot 2 maintains the opportunity for a
gateway entry feature, additional outdoor seating, or gathering space, and an overall site plan
that meets the requirements of the Zoning Code and forwards the vision of the Guiding Plan
for the B-2 District.
Multiple-family housing has been identified as an appropriate use in the B-2 District,through
a PUD process; however, reuse of the former Holiday Inn building was not contemplated in
the Guiding Plan. It is difficult to thoroughly analyze the site for conformance with the
Guiding Plan given the unknown future uses of the former McGuire's, banquet facilities, and
Lot 2. How these aspects of the project are developed over time will have a significant
impact on parking, traffic generation, and the overall function of this site as part of the B-2
District.

3. Signage
The applicant has not submitted a signage plan for the property.
4. Traffic
Traffic Study
The City Engineer and Ramsey County Traffic Engineers reviewed the submitted traffic
study and subsequent revision by RLK Engineering, and have included their comments
(Attachment Q.
According to the traffic report submitted by the applicant, the proposed use would generate
approximately 75 percent of the trip generation as the former Holiday Inn when it was fully
functional. The traffic report also includes anticipated traffic impacts from Lot 1 based on
the future reuse of the existing McGuire's and banquet facilities as a daycare center and
fitness center, along with the potential development of Lot 2. The applicant was asked to
include assumptions about the build out of the site because the City must consider the overall
traffic impacts of the site as a whole.
The report indicates that the Holiday Inn generated approximately 1,338 trips per day when it
was fully operational. The traffic report contemplates five different possible land uses for
Lot 2. Depending on the land use for Lot 2, the total trip generation on both parcels ranges
widely. For example, on Lot 2, a standalone bank would generate 371 trips per day, while a
pharmacy would generate 1,411. This range is worrisome in that the City does not currently
have a mechanism in place to control the number of trips once Lot 1 is developed. The
traffic study assumes a 44 percent reduction in trips based on pass-by trips, and mode share,
meaning an assumption that people are walking or biking to and from the site. Staff feels
that 44 percent is not a realistic assumption, and without knowing the final uses for the
McGuire's space and Lot 2 it would not be possible to estimate this amount.
Staff concludes that the traffic study is insufficient to adequately calculate the traffic impacts
over time, particularly at the PM Peak, which is the most congested time of the day in this
location. Traffic can be addressed over time as development is proposed on a site specific
basis; however, based on the information presented for this application it is difficult to
predict what the true traffic impact will be until the future uses are known.

Carroll's Furniture Access
Staff has discussed options for providing a more adequate access to serve the three properties
lying west of the Holiday Inn site. Since this proposal is moving forward before that issue
can be thoroughly analyzed, Staff is suggesting that the Holiday Inn site provide an easement
along the entire west property line easterly to the rear of the row of parking adjacent to the
building. The easement would be used to accommodate a reconfiguration of the existing
drive-aisle, access to the three businesses to the west of the Holiday Inn site, and possible
shared parking. The owners of the Holiday Inn site have also been asked to participate in
future discussions to address this issue. The applicant is not being asked to pay for any of
these improvements, and reconstruction of the west portion of the Holiday Inn site could be
suspended until a final solution is agreed upon by all parties. The City's intention would be
to minimize any impacts to the Holiday Inn site as much as possible, and to vacate any
portion of the easement that is not part of the long-term solution to this issue.
4. Safety and Security
The Ramsey County Sheriff has reviewed the plans and submitted comments based on a
conversation that he had with the applicant (Attachment E). The Sheriff has three primary
concerns. The first is lighting of the parking lot. During the time when the building was
used as student housing there was a marked increase in vehicle break-ins. The Sheriff has
recommended that additional lighting be maintained at a minimum of 3-foot candles at
ground level across the parking lot surface.
The second area of concern is the vacant space that will remain after the first phase is
complete. The Sheriff has asked for a camera and locking plan, subject to his approval, prior
to the issuance of a building permit. He remains concerned over the ability to secure vacant
spaces once the building is partially occupied.
The third area of concern is regarding the controlled access and security personnel for the
building. Most apartment buildings offer in-room intercom systems that allow residents to
buzz in visitors. That will not be the case in this building. The applicant is proposing that
visitors will call residents, who will then call down to a security person, who will let people
in. Furthermore security will be responsible for monitoring cameras throughout the building,
which are an integral aspect of security for the third and fourth floors, touring the building on
occasion, and attending to issues that may arise on an as-needed basis. The Sheriff is
concerned that the submitted plans do not indicate how these tasks will be handled, and that
one person will not be able to safely and adequately perform all of these duties.

Page 10 of 16
5. Park Dedication
Park use dedications for recreation or conservation purposes would be required as part of an
approval of this application, and would be determined by the City Council. According to the
City's subdivision ordinance the property is subject to a park dedication requirement because
of the platting of the parcel. Based on the Code, park dedication can be in the form of a
percentage of land dedicated to the City, or as cash in lieu of a dedication. In the event of a
cash dedication, the amount could be up to ten percent of the fair market value of the
property. According to the Ramsey County Assessor, the property has an assessed value of
$2.67 million. Based on the current assessed value of the property the park dedication could
be up to $267,000. The final park dedication requirements will be determined by the City
Council.
According to State Statute, cash payments made to cities in lieu of park dedication can only
be used towards the construction of new recreation facilities and cannot be used to maintain
existing facilities.
6. Additional Review
The Building Official and Fire Marshall reviewed the plan and have submitted their
comments (Attachment Q.
Ramsey County has reviewed the plans and is requesting additional easement over the corner
of County Road E and Lexington Avenue to accommodate a designated right turn lane from
southbound Lexington Avenue to westbound County Road E (Attachment D). The
additional easement would also provide for sidewalk along County Road E and Lexington, as
well as a signal post locations, and a gateway monument at the corner at a future date. Staff
is asking for a 30-foot by 30-foot triangular easement to accommodate these items.
Discussion
This building would be the largest apartment building in Arden Hills. The approved, but as yet
not built, Arden Village is 55-units. The Park Shore, Cottage Villas, and Hunters Park buildings
have 173 units combined. Given its size and location this is a significant project for the City.
With all apartment buildings the key to their success rests in their long-term management. The
City has no authority to regulate who buys or operates the Holiday Inn building once it is
approved.

Staff has spent a considerable amount of time evaluating this proposal, and continues to have
concerns regarding the proposed use of the site. While the applicant intends to market this
building to students of Bethel University and Northwestern College, the applicant cannot limit
residents to only this demographic, as was possible with the student housing facility. The
efficiency units are approximately 300 square feet in size, some of which do not have windows
to the outside, but rather look out over the fitness area. In addition, Staff has concerns over the
phasing plan which would keep two floors, and the banquet and McGuire's spaces, vacant for a
period of time. There is also traffic generation and parking demand unknowns associated with
the aspects of this site that have yet to be developed, both within the existing building and on Lot
2. An ideal scenario would be to plan for the redevelop the site as a whole, rather than the City
reviewing it in segments over time.
The applicant submitted floor plan layouts for an earlier iteration of this proposal. Updated floor
plans were not submitted with this revised application. Staff would like to see floor plan layouts
prior to the City Council's review of this application.
Findings of Fact
The Planning Commission must make a finding as to whether or not the proposed application
meets the requirements of the Zoning Code, advances the goals, and principles within the
Guiding Plan for the B-2 District, and would adversely affect the surrounding neighborhood or
the community as a whole. Staff offers the following findings for consideration:
General Findings:
1. The applicant is proposing to redevelop the existing building at 1201 County Road E into
a 120-unit multiple-family building.
2. The proposed use is allowed through a Planned Unit Development process in the B-2
District.
3. The proposal would increase vehicle trips to and from the site compared to existing and
past conditions. The amount of increase cannot be quantified based on the plans
submitted.
4. Required parking demand cannot be determined based on the plans submitted.
5. The proposal is in compliance with the City's setback, lot size, lot coverage, and density
requirements.
6. The proposal would meet or exceeds the City's general regulation requirements for the B-
2 District.
7. The proposal, if approved, would generate up to $267,000 in park dedication.

Staff Recommendation
Staff acknowledges that this site is an important gateway to the B-2 District, and yet remains
vacant. Two other development applications have been reviewed by the City and approved in
the past two years on this property, both of which did not come to fruition. Staff understands the
frustration of both the City and developer to find a mutually beneficial and productive reuse of
this property. In that vein, if the Planning Commission chooses to approve this application, Staff
recommends the following conditions of approval:
1. The project shall be completed in accordance with the plans submitted as amended by
the conditions of approval. Any significant changes to these plans, as determined by
the City Planner, shall require review and approval by the Planning Commission and
City Council.
2. Development agreements, drafted by the City Attorney, shall be signed by the
property owners of Lot 1 and Lot 2 prior to the execution of the Final Plat.
3. The applicant shall provide for park dedication in an amount of$267,000. The park
dedication shall be paid in full prior to the execution of the Final Plat, or the property
owner shall enter into an agreement for a payment plan that is in accordance with
Section 1130.08 Subd E of the City Code.
4. The applicant shall provide drainage and utility easements, in favor of the City, in
accordance with 1130.05 of the City Code,prior to the execution of the final plat.
5. The applicant shall provide a 30-foot by 30-foot triangular permanent easement at the
intersection of Lexington Avenue and County Road E for roadway and utility
purposes, as well as gateway monument.
6. The applicant shall file the Final Plat with Ramsey County within 180 days of City
approval, or the approval for the Final Plat shall expire, unless extended by the City
Council prior to the approval's expiration. Extension requests must be submitted in
writing to the City at least 45 days prior to the expiration date.
7. The applicant shall dedicate to the City a twelve-foot wide pedestrian easement along
the property lines adjacent to County Road E and Lexington Avenue, within which

Kitchen - Each apartment unit will be renovated to include counter top, sink, under counter
refrigerator, under cabinet drawers and cooktop/oven. (See Attached) Additionally, room and
common area surface finishes will be upgraded as necessary.
It is our intention to market these apartments to students attending the local colleges and
universities, young professionals and seniors looking for a place to call their own while still
having the social contact the common area amenities will provide (we would not expect families
based upon the size of the units). All residents will be thoroughly screened including back
ground check, credit report, employment or other income verification and prior landlord check.
The facility will be equipped with state of the art camera systems and 24 hour security staffing
as well as a single point exit and entry utilizing a controlled access system. The developer will
participate in the Crime Free Multi Housing Program.
The site work/exterior improvements incorporated in this application are consistent with the site
and exterior work approved on November 22, 2010— planning case#10-009 including the
construction of a concrete sidewalk; street tree requirements; parking lot lighting; fire sprinkler
system; etc. It should be noted the aforementioned case provided for bicycle racks along the
exterior of the building while this new development provides for a bike storage area inside the
building as well as an exterior barbeque area as depicted in the attached site plan. Planning
case#10-009 required parking lot lighting additions subject to approval of the city planner and
county sheriff which continue to be acceptable.
RLK has provided an updated traffic study (see attached-3rd revision) and has concluded
apartment use combined with other potential uses on Lot 2 and potential use in the westerly
portion of the building "will operate the same, if not better than the previous use on the site
(Holiday Inn Hotel)." Additionally, RLK report has addressed questions raised by staff.
We believe this development lends itself well with the city's B2 District Plan by providing for
updated interior building and site improvements. Additionally the apartments will provide
additional residential density (consistent with the B2 goals and objectives) and provide
residents/customers eager to utilize the local businesses around them via the sidewalks and
roadways planned for the B2 District.
Sustainability-Arden Hall Apartments as an occupied and vibrant multi-purpose building fully
utilizes a property in which our natural resources have already been invested. As one of your
staff shared with me... "the 'greenest' building is one that doesn't have to be built".
We are requesting a lot split into two separate parcels: Lot 1 and Lot 2 (Lot 2 is proposed in
concept form). We have secured a permit from Ramsey County to access Lot 2 from Lexington
Avenue.
Respectfully,

generated by particular land uses based on a variety of variables (numbers of units, numbers of
employees,per thousand square feet of floor area,etc.).
A. Apartments
The trip generation for the site while it was a 150-room hotel was 1,338 trips per day. That included
101 trips to and from the site in the A.M.Peak Hour(7-8 A.M.),and 105 trips to and from the site in
the P.M. Peak Hour. The proposed reuse of the former hotel site is to convert the building into a
market-rate apartment building. The building would comprise 150 efficiency apartment units. Table
IA shows a comparison of the trip generation potential of the 150-unit apartment building with the
150-room hotel use.
Table 1A.

Hotel Lodging 310 150 rooms 59 1 42 51 1 54 1,338
101 total 105 total
This comparison shows that the apartment building will generate fewer trips than was evidenced by
the previous hotel use. Table IA shows the estimated number of trips based on the number of
apartment units based on data taken from apartment buildings and complexes throughout the country.
In comparison, this development is intended to be market-based apartments consisting of efficiency
units. Therefore,fewer occupants per unit are likely to be residing in the building than are typical for
apartment complexes. Rather than using the number of units as the variable, a more appropriate
variable may be to use the number of persons (tenants) as the variable. In this case, assuming a rate
of 1.5 persons per unit, a maximum occupancy of 225 persons would be expected in the apartment
building. Table 1B shows the number of trips this would generate.

for a high-priority/high-volume suburban movement might be"C,"while LOS "F"on a low-priority/low-
volume urban movement might be appropriate.
For side-street stop-controlled intersections, a key measure of operational effectiveness is the side-street
LOS. Long delays and poor LOS can sometimes result on the side street, even if the overall intersection
is functioning well, making it a valuable design criterion. Again, depending on priority and traffic
volume,acceptable side-street LOS can range from"D"to"F."
A final fundamental component of operational analyses is a study of vehicular queuing, or the lineup of
vehicles waiting to pass through an intersection. An intersection can operate with an acceptable level of
service, but if queues from the intersection extend back to block entrances to turn lanes or accesses to
adjacent land uses, unsafe operating conditions could result. The 95`"percentile queue, or the length of
queue with a 5% chance of occurring during the peak hour, is considered the standard for design
purposes.
To assess the background traffic conditions,RLK used the Existing PM Peak Hour Traffic Volumes that
were recorded in the Traffic Impact Study developed as part of the Guiding Plan for the B2 District z
Access Considerations
Along County Road E, access to the development parcels has been limited to two driveways. The
westerly site driveway is approximately 975 feet west of Lexington Avenue. The proposed driveway
accessing the east side of the apartment building is approximately 425 feet west of Lexington. A central
driveway approximately 775 feet west of Lexington previously used for pick-up/drop-off access to the
front of the building will be closed.
A right-in/right-out only driveway onto Lot 2 to/from Lexington Avenue has been approved by Ramsey
County. This driveway will primarily serve the Lot 2 use,but will also provide a far less direct access to
the apartment and future uses of the former restaurant and banquet room spaces. Nevertheless,the right-
turn only operation at the access,plus the presence of a median along this portion of Lexington will limit
the accessibility to southbound movements only. Others will need to use the County Road E driveways.
Internal Circulation
The internal roadways will allow two-way traffic flow. The westerly drive extends to a parking area at
the rear of the apartment building, and then turns easterly to access the parking area for Lot 2. The
parking area for Lot 2 also can be accessed via the right-in/right-out driveway from Lexington,as well as
the easterly driveway onto County Road E.
To model the distribution of the traffic generated by the market-rate apartments and various uses
considered for the conceptual parcel, RLK looked at the trip distribution and the directional split of the
traffic. For the apartment building,it was assumed that 50%would use the easterly driveway,50%would
use the westerly driveway. For the conceptual parcel, RLK assumed 80% would use the easterly

driveway and 20%of the traffic would use the westerly driveway. For the banquet and restaurant reuses,
it was assumed that 80% would use the western driveway and 20% would be split from the easterly
driveways.
By applying the site trip distribution to the Existing P.M.Peak Hour traffic,as found in the Spack report,
RLK was able to model the Build condition in the P.M. Peak Hour scenario. Levels of service were no
worse than LOS-C for any of the study intersections.
Delay and stacking distance did not appear to be significant at any of the driveways during the PM Peak
Hour. SimTraffic analyses showed a 95`s Percentile Queue length of 51 feet(approx.2 car lengths)at the
easterly driveway, and the model showed the queue cleared rapidly as traffic entered County Road E.
The westerly driveway and the right-in/right-out driveway onto Lexington had similarly minimal queue
lengths.
Parldng
Lot 1 is projected to provide 259 parking stalls, while Lot 2 is projected to provide 80 parking stalls.
Thus the total projected parking to be provided is 339 stalls.
Using rates from ITE Parking Generation,3rd Edition,the 150 unit apartment building would require 180
stalls. The projected parking demand for a day-care would be 17 stalls, while the projected parking
demand for a health/fitness club would be 40 stalls. The projected parking demand for a pharmacy would
be 34 stalls. Therefore, the projected parking demand of the proposed apartment building and the
possible ancillary uses would be 271 stalls. This layout meets the projected parking demand.
Conclusion
RLK has tested several scenarios of trip generation and traffic operation for the market-rate apartment
site, westerly portion of the building and the conceptual parcel to the east. Because of the effects of
transit and other modes (i.e.,bikes,etc.), as well as shared trips and internal capture,it is our conclusion
that the trip generation and traffic operation associated with these potential uses will operate the same,if
not better than the previous use on the site (Holiday Inn hotel). The access locations do not negatively
impact the flow of traffic along County Road E, nor do the various proposed trip generators cause
increased impacts to the overall street network. The addition of the right-intright-out driveway onto
Lexington will provide access options to the driver.
It is important to realize that this analysis encompasses the market-rate apartments, and also makes
assumptions as to the potential uses for Lot 2 and the reuse of the former restaurant and banquet facilities.
More accurate trip generation calculations can be made for the site once those uses have been determined.

To comply with City request,RLK modeled a series of land uses that might occupy these spaces. These
examples illustrated that if the traffic could be handled in these conditions, the ultimate trip generators
would still be served and traffic operations would not suffer.
Table 3B of the report shows the net trip generation comparison after considering the impacts of
alternative modes of transportation as well as internal trips. Assuming the addition of the ancillary uses,
alternative modes and internal trips,only 36 additional trips would be generated in the A.M Peak and only
83 additional trips would be generated in the P.M. Peak. Again, these are not three times the traffic
generated by the previous hotel use.
The actual conclusions of the traffic study are found on Page 8 of the report. We state:
"RLK has tested several scenarios of trip generation and traffic operation for the market-
rate apartment site, westerly portion of the building and the conceptual parcel to the east.
Because of the effects of transit and other modes(i.e., bikes, etc.), as well as shared trips
and internal capture, it is our conclusion that the trip generation and traffic operation
associated with these potential uses will operate the same, if not better than the previous
use on the site (Holiday Inn hotel). The access locations do not negatively impact the
flow of traffic along County Road E, nor do the various proposed trip generators cause
increased impacts to the overall street network. The addition of the right-in/right-out
driveway onto Lexington will provide access options to the driver.
It is important to realize that this analysis encompasses the market-rate apartments, and
also makes assumptions as to the potential uses for Lot 2 and the reuse of the former
restaurant and banquet facilities. More accurate trip generation calculations can be
made for the site once those uses have been determined."
Additionally, the traffic study reported that based on the proposed apartment and speculated ancillary
uses,the driveways would operate at LOS-C or better in the A.M. and P.M.Peak hours. The intersection
of County Road E and Lexington will continue to operate at overall LOS-D or better during the peak
hours.
Finally, it must be reiterated that RLK Incorporated did not conclude that at full build-out the site would
generate three times the number of P.M. Peak Hour trips generated by the former hotel use. RLK
Incorporated did complete an exercise to"address the maximum capacity of the system for trips generated
from the site" as requested by City staff. To that end, RLK found that the traffic operation of the hotel
and likely ancillary uses will remain satisfactory and will not unduly impact the City or County roadway
traffic operation.
On March 28, 2012, you forwarded to me a memo from City Planner Meagan Beekman that outlined
specific comments regarding your development. You informed me that your development will no longer
consist of 150 units,but will now consist of 120 units.
The City also forwarded comments specifically addressing "Traffic and Public Works" issues. I have
reviewed these comments and have the following responses:
RLK Incorporated Page 2 of 5 March 30,2012
Response to Staff Comments-1201 County Road E,Arden Hills 2011-052-M
1. Provide turn radii for a large passenger vehicle from west bound County Road E turning right into
the eastern most driveway access.
• Response—Turning radius tested for passenger design vehicle. Path tested was a right
turn from westbound Co.Rd.E, and then immediate right turn eastbound. This
movement has existed throughout history of Holiday Inn site without complications.
• Larger vehicles and delivery trucks have successfully negotiated the current access on
County Road E for decades. Therefore it would be recommended that either the median
as proposed by the City not be constructed, or alternatively larger vehicle or delivery
trucks be directed to access the site from Lexington Avenue or by accessing the site by
approaching in an easterly direction on County Road E.
2. Revise traffic study to indicate how the proposed development impacts the surrounding roadway
system.
• Response—See response to item 7 below.
3. Would Bethel and NWC be open to providing any shuttle service to and from their campuses?
• Response—The developer says not at this time. Metro Transit bus service is available at
stops adjacent to the site.
4. An 8"water main should be extended from County Road E to the northerly plat line between the
two proposed lots.This water main will provide for the future looping of water between this site
and the Cub/strip mall area north of the railroad tracks.Both of these areas are currently served
by dead end water lines which put firefighting ability,domestic service reliability and quality of
water at risk.Eventually getting both of these areas looped will help with all these issues.
• Response—Not applicable to traffic engineering.
5. As staff we have discussed options for providing more parking and/or a City owned street to
serve the three properties lying west of the Holiday Inn site.Since this proposal is moving
forward before that issue can be thoroughly analyzed I would suggest that the Holiday Inn site
provide an easement along the entire west property line easterly to the rear of the row of parking
adjacent to the building.This would encompass the green space,westerly row of parking and the
drive isle.The owners of the Holiday Inn site should also participate in discussions to address this
issue.Any easement that is granted through this application that is not part of the long term
solution to this issue could be vacated at a later date.
• Response -Not applicable to traffic engineering, but developer has indicated he is
agreeable to such an easement.
6. Limited access should be provided through the platting process for both the Lexington Ave and
County Road E frontage for all areas not being allowed to be used as driveways.This will likely
need to be provided in a separate document from the plat.
• Response—Not applicable to traffic engineering. The intent of this requirement is
unclear. The developer is not intending to install driveways at areas other than those
that are being allowed to be used as driveways. If the intent is to limit any future curb
cuts for driveway purposes, the developer is agreeable at this time.
7. Please see Ramsey County Traffic Engineer's comments dated March 22,2012
• Response—See responses to Ramsey County Traffic Engineer's comments below.
RLK Incorporated Page 3 of 5 March 30,2012
Response to Staff Comments-1201 County Road E,Arden Hills 2011-052-M
City Planner Meagan Beekman forwarded comments from Ramsey County Traffic Engineer Erin
Laberee. Please find below our responses to these comments:
1. Proposed site plan improvement drawings should be provided. The only drawings received were
architectural drawings for improvements to the building.
• Response—Not applicable to traffic engineering.
2. The application letter from the developer and the traffic study both reference Ramsey County's
approval of the right in/right out access onto Lexington Avenue. The access approval was for a
bank,4,000 square foot in size on a subdivided lot. The letter to permit the access states,
"Ramsey County has no obligation to perpetuate the permitted access for any other uses and
retains the right to review access for any change in use of the site after the original businesses are
established,as specified in Minnesota Rules 8810.5200." The letter is attached. The
development of Lot 2 has not been identified nor has the lot been subdivided;therefore the
County's permit for access on Lexington is not valid. The County will review a request for
access onto Lexington Avenue when a new use is proposed and when an updated traffic study is
provided.
• Response—The developer is confused by this comment.He currently has a County-
authorized access permit in hand for the right-in/right-out onto Lexington.
3. The traffic study done by RLK,dated February 13,2012 provides trip generation information.
Clarification is needed as to how the numbers were derived in Table 3B. The traffic study should
include trip generation for redevelopment of the site to include a restaurant.
• Response—The figures in Table 3B are calculated by applying the steps below using the
Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation informational report,Eighth
Edition.
Step 1: Calculate trip generation. For example,Mid Rise Apartment with 225 persons
generates 50 trips in the AM Peak(10 inbound,40 outbound)and 72 trips in the
PM Peak Hour(47 inbound 25 outbound). (NOTE. As stated previously, the
City specified the use of`persons"versus "units"as the variable to calculate
numbers of trips.)
Step 2: Combined with the other uses, the total gross number of trips generated in the
AM Peak is 170 trips/hr(75 inbound 95 outbound), and 318 trips in the PM
Peak Hour(169 inbound, 149 outbound).
Step 3: Calculate Shared(Unconstrained Internal Capture)Trips using procedure in
Trip Generation Handbook 2nd Edition. These rates are based on trips
calculated to be between destinations within a multi-use development. Since
these trips are generated and stay within the development, they do not impact
the intersections along County Road E nor Lexington.
Step 4: Calculate Pass-by Trips using procedure in Trip Generation Handbook. 2°d
Edition. Procedure accounts for trips that are made as an intermediate stop
along the way to another destination. In this case,an average of 49%of
Pharmacy trips is considered to be Pass-By trips. Therefore,an adjustment is
made in trips based on Pass-By traffic.
Step 5. Calculate a Subtotal of Trips assuming these previous adjustments.
RLK Incorporated Page 4 of 5 March 30,2012
Response to Staff Comments-1201 County Road E,Arden Hills 2011-052-M
Step 6: Calculate Modal Shift Reduction on Number of Trips assuming a factor to
account for transit routes, carpooling, bicycle routes and pedestrian activity. In
this case a 20%reduction was used to account for modal shift.
The numbers in Table 3B represent these final adjusted figures.
• Response—Restaurant use is not anticipated for the development, and therefore is not a
realistic land use to be tested.
4. The traffic study should include a LOS analysis of how the redevelopment will affect the County
Road E at the access locations and for each turning movement at the County Road E and
Lexington intersection. Future improvements to County Road E should be taken into
consideration when determining the proposed access locations.
• Response—RLK utilized Synchro and SimTraffic operational models to analyze levels of
service(LOS)at each of the access intersections and at the major intersection noted.
Each of the intersections tested operate currently at LOS-D or better in the AM and PM
Peak Hours. (Note: LOS-D is the regionally-accepted benchmark of level of service for
intersections to operate at or better before mitigation should be considered.)
• Under,existing conditions, it was noted that the eastbound left turn lane at Co.Rd E and
Lexington operates at LOS-F in the PM Peak Hour. It should be noted, however, that
stacking in the left turn lane does not extend at or beyond the easterly intersection into
the site. The intersection operation does not worsen with the addition of the development
traffic.
• As with previous development scenarios for the former hotel site, no new access points
will be introduced along County Road E. In fact, the intermediate access serving the
front drop-off entrance will be removed. The remaining access points were in keeping
with the access management considerations for County Road E promoted in the Guiding
Plan for the B2 District.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 12, 2012

FROM: Terry Maurer,Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Traffic Study Comments
PC 12-009
As requested, I have reviewed the Traffic Study prepared by RLK, Inc., dated February 13,
2012. I have also reviewed the Response to Staff Comments prepared by RLK, Inc., and
dated March 30, 2012. I reviewed these two documents and also met with Joe Lux,
Planning Specialist, and Erin Laberee, Traffic Engineer from Ramsey County.
My conclusion, after the review of documents and meeting with Ramsey County, is that
traffic, especially the PM peak trips, could pose a significant problem. Furthermore, I
believe the Traffic Study is incomplete and does not provide any technical documentation
for some of its conclusions. To support these conclusions I would cite the following:
1. The Traffic Study goes through AM and PM peak traffic generation for a 120-unit
apartment and a possible daycare and health/fitness club in the old Holiday Inn
building. It also looks at several possible uses for the new lot and generates AM
and PM peak trips. In Table 3A the study totals these trips for selected possible
uses and shows a total of 336 PM peak hour trips. But in Table 313, where the study
compares this total to the old Holiday Inn PM peak hour trips,the future number is
reduced to 188 PM peak hour trips; a 44%reduction. Although some reduction in
trips to account for combinations is reasonable, I do not see any justification for
such a large amount as 44% (Ramsey County staff also concurred with this
conclusion). No reduction for a shuttle service should be allowed unless it can be
documented that such a service will exist and be maintained. Until an actual use is
established for each parcel, it is difficult to predict an appropriate trip generation
number or reduction percentage. I believe your previous statement that this site at
full buildout will generate three times the PM peak hour trips as the old Holiday Inn
site (105 PM peak hour trips) is clearly more accurate than the Traffic Study
number of 188 PM peak hour trips at full buildout.

2. In RLK's Response to Staff Comments they say that"The developer is confused by
this comment. He currently has a County authorized access permit in hand for the
right-in/right-out onto Lexington." I have confirmed with Ramsey County staff that
this is true but is not the entire story. Although the developer has the access permit
he has no authority to proceed to construct until he has a building permit for a bank
building from the City of Arden Hills. But the Traffic Study assumes a possible
pharmacy w/drive thru on this site with the right-in/right-out. The traffic Study
needs to reflect accurately the requirements of the County access permit; either a
bank on that site or no access to Lexington Avenue.
3. In response to the County's comment that the traffic study should analyze a
restaurant,the statement is made that"Restaurant use is not anticipated for the
development and,therefore, is not a realistic use to be tested." Is this true of the
newly created lot also? If so, a condition should be put on Lot 2 to not allow
restaurants. It seems ironic that in Table 2B, Potential Trip Generation
Comparison- Lot 2,that the trips generated by a fast food restaurant w/drive-thru
and a community bank w/drive-thru are exactly the same as the pharmacy
w/drive-thru.
4. Regarding Ramsey County's comment about Level of Service (LOS) analysis
(Item 4 on page 5 of Response to Staff Comments), the response is not adequate.
The County wants to see all of the calculations that were performed to determine
if this development will adversely affect the intersection's LOS.
In conclusion, I believe that traffic and especially PM peak traffic generated by this
redevelopment is a major concern and the Traffic Study submitted raises more questions
than it answers. There is a realistic potential that this proposal will generate 2 to 3 times
the PM peak hour trips than the old Holiday Inn site. I believe that the potential uses
need to be quantified including items like a shuttle service and then have the Traffic
Study redone to show the actual effect it will have on the transportation system.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 12,2012
TO: Meagan Beekman, City Planner
FROM: Terry Maurer, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Holiday Inn Site
PC 12-009
As requested, I have reviewed the revised submittal from the Davidson Companies, Inc.,
regarding the proposed conversion of the old Holiday Inn site to market rate apartments.
Based upon this review I would offer the following comments:
1. An 8"water main must be extended from County Road E to the northerly plat line
between the two proposed lots. This water main will provide for the future
looping of water between this site and the Cub/strip mall area north of the railroad
tracks. Both of these areas are currently served by dead end water lines which put
fire fighting ability, domestic service reliability and quality of water at risk.
Eventually getting both of these areas looped will help with all these issues.
2. As staff, we have discussed options for providing more parking and/or a City
owned street to serve the three properties lying west of the Holiday Inn site.
Since this proposal is moving forward before that issue can be thoroughly
analyzed, I would suggest that the Holiday Inn site provide an easement along the
entire west property line easterly to the rear of the row of parking adjacent to the
building. This would encompass the green space, westerly row of parking and the
drive aisle. The owners of the Holiday Inn site should also be required to
participate in discussions to address this issue. Any easement that is granted
through this application, that is not part of the long-term solution to this issue,
could be vacated at a later date.
3. Limited access should be provided through the platting process for both the
Lexington Avenue and County Road E frontage for all areas not being allowed to
be used as driveways. This will likely need to be provided in a separate document
from the plat.

Works Comments.doc
Page 1 of 2
4. The County has indicated that they can make all planned geometric improvements
to the intersection of Lexington Avenue and County Road E within the existing
right-of-way with exception of the very corner of the property. However, when
the intersection is expanded to include additional turn lanes there will be very
little right of way left for sidewalk and other boulevard amenities. I would
suggest that the developer be required to provide a separate recordable document
providing an easement for sidewalk and other boulevard amenities over the
required plat's 12 foot drainage and utility easement area on both the Lexington
Avenue and County Road E frontage.
5. The developer should be required to build a six foot wide concrete sidewalk along
both the Lexington Avenue and County Road E frontage. At the intersection, the
County will need to be consulted to ensure that the sidewalk placement will work
with the intersection's geometric changes planned for the future.
6. At the intersection of Lexington Avenue and County Road E a 30 foot by 30 foot
triangular permanent easement for roadway and utility purposes needs to be
provided. This area will be needed by Ramsey County when the intersection is
expanded to accommodate the curb radius, sidewalk/pedestrian curb ramp, traffic
signal pole and other items. The rear of this triangular easement could likely be
used, with additional area, for the community marker required at this location.
If you have any questions regarding these comments,please let me know.

Planning Case 12-009—Building Official and Fire Marshal Comments
Re: 1201 County Rd. E
This letter is a review of a request for a change of use at the currently vacant Holiday Inn located
at 1201 County Road E. This review is done in conjunction with both the City Building
department and the Lake Johanna Fire department.
The previous use of the building was classified as a hotel with an R-1 occupancy classification.
The proposed new use is for apartments. This will result in a new occupancy classification to an
R-2.
Since the City has adopted chapter 1306 (Special Fire protection Systems) of the State Building
Code, any changes in occupancy requires a Fire Suppression system to be installed per NFPA.
City staff, along with the Lake Johanna Fire Department,have reviewed this project and have the
following items to be completed for this project to move forward.
1. All current life safety measures, both active and passive to be fully operational as
originally installed. This includes but not limited to, all penetrations and or
alterations to existing fire ratings of walls, corridors, and floor systems. They are
to be inspected and repaired to the buildings original condition.
2. All corridor doors to have a minimum of a 20 minute fire rating, and are self
closing as originally installed. All doors to be inspected and repaired as needed.
(submit letter certifying testing and compliance)
3. Installation of a fully compliant Fire Suppression system according to NFPA 13
throughout the entire building.
4. All fire dampers to be inspected and tested to assure they are in good working
condition. (submit letter certifying testing and compliance)
5. All mechanical equipment to be inspected and tested by a licensed qualified
company (approved by City prior to inspection and testing)to assure the
equipment is in a good, safe operating condition. (submit letter certifying testing
and compliance)
6. Any laundry facilities that are to remain or implemented in the building are to be
inspected and approved by the City prior to their use.
7. Any kitchen equipment to remain is to be inspected and approved by the
appropriate government agency prior to its use. (City, Fire , or Ramsey County
Health Department)
8. The installation of a fully addressable fire detection and alarm system according
to NFPA 72 throughout the building. (Fire Dept. to approved plans prior to
installation.)

9. All sleeping units are to be equipped with a smoke detection device. Individual
unit smoke detectors,upon alarm,to send an addressable notification to a
constantly monitored, (24-7) in house location, such as the current front desk.
10. Security to immediately inspect/respond and alert fire/police as necessary.
11. Building security to have emergency procedures reviewed by Lake Johanna Fire
department.
12. All existing shafts (laundry,plumbing,rubbish chutes) are to either be sealed with
a two hour rated system or a listed and tested opening device.
13. Pull stations are to be installed at all main exit doors and the doors entering stair
enclosures at each floor.
(remain or change according to NFPA 72)

1113.9 requires that at least 20% of the entire project cost goes to accessibility
upgrades.
19. All sump pumps in building need to be brought into compliance with City Code.
20. All overflow roof drains that were removed need to be reinstalled per code.
21. A fire department lock box will be installed near main entrance. Lock box on end
of building will remain installed. Both lock boxes will be provided with keys
determined by the Lake Johanna Fire Department.
22. The building will need to comply with the Minnesota Statute 299F.50 - Carbon
Monoxide Alarms for multi-family dwellings.
23. Currently there is no way to evacuate smoke from the second or fourth floor of

Meagan,
Attached is a conceptual layout for a right turn lane on Lexington at County Road E.The existing ROW will accommodate
a right turn lane, but new sidewalk or trail would require additional easements,which the City may want to condition as
part of plat approval.The existing right of way on County Road E would also support a new right turn lane which has
been drawn.Additional right of way will be needed to construct a dual left for eastbound traffic.We would need an
additional 15 feet for that turn lane.As I mentioned in our meeting,the County's cost participation policy will likely be
changing to a 50/50 split with the Cities for roadway right of way needs and 100%City for new trail/sidewalk right of
way needs. Please give me a call if you would like to discuss.
Thanks,
Erin

Meagan,
Today, at the development review committee meeting,we discussed several safety concerns that
surround the proposed development of 1201 County Road E West. As requested, I am sending you a
summary of the concerns:
• VACANT SPACE—The current plan would leave large areas of the building unoccupied.
Experience shows us that these areas,even when secured, wind up being a magnet for criminal
activity.
• EXTERIOR LIGHTING—The current blueprint does not include a lighting plan. Since proper
lighting plays such an important role in crime prevention this is a major concern.
• BUILDING ACCESS—The current plan does not include any"controlled visitor access"
mechanisms. Buildings without these mechanisms have increased calls for service due to the
volume of transient traffic.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions regarding this matter.
Sincerely,
John

Meagan,
have looked over the documents that you provided. It is true that Mr. Davidson did contact me to ask questions about
the letter that I sent to you. It is also true that we spoke, at length, about these specific issues. However, there are a
couple of points that Mr. Davidson makes in his responses that need clarification. Those points are:
LIGHTING PLAN:
- Mr. Davidson's response did not include a completion date for the lighting plan. However, I am assuming that it will
be completed before the project is approved.
- I also noticed that his response did not state that the IES recommended minimum illumination for an outdoor parking
lot, with pedestrian traffic, is 3 foot candle (maintained minimum) at ground level. I only mention this because Mr.
Davidson stated, in our conversation, that he was led to believe that the IES recommended lighting for an open
parking lot was 0.5 foot candle. Because of this initial confusion, and the vast difference between these numbers,
think that it would be prudent to actually state what the lighting levels will be before any agreement is reached.
VISITORS, SECURITY, AND CAMERAS:
- As stated, I did speak with Mr. Davidson concerning the topics of visitors, security personnel, and cameras. However,
at no time did I lead Mr. Davidson to believe that I "indicated satisfaction"with his plan. In fact, I explained to Mr.
Davidson that I could not make any determination about his security plans until he was able to provide
documentation which showed exactly what his plans involved. Since Mr. Davidson has not yet provided any
documentation, I am still unable to make any determinations.
If you need any further explanation, please do not hesitate to contact me.
