OVERVIEW OF THE NE CORNER OF INTERSTATES 694 AND 35 W (ARDEN HILLS) Arden Hills The City of Arden Hills has adopted the Gateway Business District(GBD)plan into its Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance. Generally, the GBD is a Office/Light Industrial zoning district, which requires.a high quality of development. The minimum lot size requirement in the GBD is 10 acres. The existing rail spur most likely will not be required by the potential users of the GBD. The primary issues in implementing the GBD has been access and parcel configuration. The City is working with Ramsey County in an attempt to relocate the access point to the GBD (Round Lake Road) east,towards Round Lake. The City has also been working with several developers in an attempt to combine several parcels of land to allow for a more unified development. The City has been working with the Minnesota Department of Transportation(MN Dot) and Ramsey County in an attempt to enhance access to Interstate 35W by evaluating 4Lthe design and capacity of the Highway 96 bridge. The source of funding for any required improvements to the Highway 96 bridge have not yet been identified. The City of Arden Hills is hoping that the City of New Brighton will be able to ® help with the traffic problem at GBD, by helping improve Highway 96 and putting in a bridge. This in turn would help the City of New Brighton with their plan for improvements of the NW Quadrant. 4. OVERVIEW OF THE NW CORNER OF INTERSTATES 694 AND 35 W (NEW BRIGHTON) New Brighton The City of New Brighton is also working on refining their plan for NW corner of Interstates 694 and 35W(Exhibit A). The area is currently zoned for Light Industrial area. The goal of the plan is to blend the new uses in this quadrant into the existing adjacent land uses along the Old Highway 8 Corridor. The plan provides for retail, and potentially could include four restaurants. The development will attempt to manage traffic by utilizing the various interchanges in the general area. The presence of the rail spur is also an issue with New Brighton,the rail spur is still used by several existing businesses. The current long term goal would include the removal of the rail spur. The Cities should review the potential re-use for the bridge currently used by the rail spur. 5. DISCUSSION • Highway 96 The Cities need to make the improvement of Highway 96 and its bridge a high priority for funding. The Cities should continue to work together on becoming a higher priority for funding and timing of the improvements to assist in the development of both quadrants. I-35W Corridor Cities/Joint Marketing The Cities along the I-35W corridor(Arden Hills, Mounds View,New Brighton, Roseville, and Shoreview) have been meeting to discuss issues which the Cities share due their proximity and interrelatedness. The issues of access to Interstate 35W and the production of a joint marketing effort has been a focal point of this coalition. The Cities need to provide updates to their respective EDC's as to the activities of the coalition. The coalition may wish to use representatives of the various EDC's in the production of the joint marketing effort. The City Staff's will be attempting to formalize this coalition in May, by having the respective City Council's endorse a resolution supporting the coalition. In the short term,the Staffs should keep working together on issues on mutual concern. It was agreed to share minutes from the proceedings of the two EDC's. • • TCAAP Arden Hills updated the New Brighton EDC on the status of the Vento Plan and the Arden Hills Task Force Plan. It is anticipated that the both plans will be finished soon at which time the Arden Hills Task Force will make its recommendation to the City Council for their consideration. 6. ADJOURNMENT The meeting adjourned at 9:00 a.m. • CITY OF NEW BRIGHTON NW QUADRANT PROPOSED REDEVELOPMENT IMPLEMENTATION a �i 1 1 • � as• NORTHWEST QUADRANT PROPOSED GOALS The City of New Brighton, through a coordinated and integrated development strategy, will take advantage of the unique characteristics of the Northwest Quadrant. Planning the site as a comprehensive district, New Brighton will develop it as a high profile regional center compatible with surrounding land uses, including the new downtown projects and Long Lake Regional Park. The development will minimize additional truck traffic to the Old Highway 8 Corridor while at the same time bringing it increased visibility and aesthetic value. SITE ISSUES CHARACTERISTICS Strengths Unique, high profile site Excellent proximity to Long Lake Regional Park Railroad extends through the site Large size of site- approximately 24 acres Close location to new downtown redevelopment projects Arden Hills is located directly across I-35W accessible on railroad bridge Potential for connection to Arden Hills by 14th Street extension Weaknesses hILOtiple owners with major uses Current h.-,mess will need to be relocated Large buildings to be demolished Irregular parcels No internal circulation Geotechnical soil conditions may present building problems on driving range site Limited access will be an obstacle Redevelopment of the site will not occur without City involvement Environmental issues are still an unknown • BACKGROUND INFORMATION COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SUMMARY The eastern area of the City is dominated by Lon- Lake and the Long Lake Regional Park. The area is generally industrial in character stretching along Highway 8. Recent development in this area has been light industrial and office/warehouse in nature, including Rehabilicare, Rush Lake Business Park and a distribution facility for AT & T. Most recent development has occurred because of City involvement in a series of redevelopment projects. ENVIRONMENTAL PHASE I REPORT Delta Environmental is producing a Phase I report on the entire NW Quadrant area. A summary is included when completed. The summary lists several spot locations that may warrant further investigation. Previous Phase one analysis has been prepared for the driving range site and can be made available. GEOTECHNICAL INFORMATION Geotechnical information is not available on the entire site. The driving range site information results has concluded that parts of the site are not well suited to support substantial buildings. • However, this may be overcome through the use of special foundation or soil stabilization measures TRAFFIC MAP The attached map from 1993 includes the latest traffic information available to date. UTILITY INFORMATION CAD map of the area showing utilities was produced by New Brighton Engineering Department and is attached. MAPS OF SITE LOCATION NW Quadrant redevelopment site is shown in relation to access points. SELECTED DEMOGRAPHICS Census information on New Brighton and the surrounding communities are presented in a table format with an accompanying map to visually demonstrate the communities included in the data. • NEW BRIGHTON NORTHWEST Q UADRANT CAD w N 0 14TH STREET NW 3 r _1 S 3 I � i � O 0 1-694 • S I T E D E S C R I P T I O N u *PARCEL: #9 *ASSESSOR 'S ESTIMATED VALUE : (1985)$1, 350,568 *NO OF PARCELS: 14 ° c *---IZE : 1, 964,800 S .F . 45.1 ACRES *ZONING: I-2 & B-3 - -" ADJACENT NE I-2 ADJACENT SE Freeway 1 ADJACENT SW Freeway & B-3 ADJACENT NW I-3 *COMPREHENSIVE PLAN - LAND USE: Lt.
