Page 1 of 1 DATE: August 11, 2014 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Patrick Klaers, City Administrator FROM: Terry Maurer, Public Works Director SUBJECT: Transportation Update Background A brief oral update will be provided at the meeting on the US Highway 10 and County Road 96 project. STAFF COMMENTS – 3B MEMORANDUM Approved: CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION JUNE 16, 2014 5:00 P.M. - ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, Mayor Grant called to order the City Council work session at 5:25 p.m. Present: Mayor David Grant; Councilmembers Brenda Holden, Fran Holmes, Dave McClung, and Ed Werner Absent: None Also present: City Administrator Patrick Klaers; Director of Finance and Administrative Services Sue Iverson; Public Works Director Terry Maurer; Community Development Director Jill Hutmacher; and Amy Dietl 1. AGENDA ITEMS A. Revisions to the Draft TCAAP Master Plan Land Use Map Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that the City Council has been meeting to discuss topics related to the approval of the TCAAP master plan land use map as follows:  Parks, Trails, and Recreation Committee (PTRC) recommendations for park needs and amenities (April 21)  Surface water amenity (April 21)  Residential development and densities (May 19)  Flex space land use (May 19) Community Development Director Hutmacher explained that the PTRC recommended the inclusion of specific amenities within each park area. The recommendations, which were accepted by the City Council, can be summarized as follows:  Park areas in neighborhoods should include play structures, a gazebo, and off-street parking (located either in lots or in bump-outs along the public street); ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 16, 2014 2  Parks should be located nearer to center or at the entrance to residential neighborhoods so that park traffic is not routed through the neighborhood;  An adult athletic facility (softball and hockey) should be located adjacent to a County road. This facility should be lighted and ideally will have shared parking with adjacent businesses. Community Development Director Hutmacher indicated that the City Council also discussed goals for the surface water amenity on April 21. Council comments included:  Pond areas should be well-maintained and should have water present at all times;  Ponds may be connected by natural areas or a “brook” environment;  Trails and benches should be included so that the surface water management can also be a site amenity. Community Development Director Hutmacher reported that the City Council discussed residential densities and the flex space land use on May 19, 2014. The City Council chose not to set a maximum number of dwelling units at this time. It was noted that the City Council did not make changes to the amount of land designated for the flex space land use. The City Council discussed their preference for office development and that this type of development should be allowed and encouraged in the flex space area. The City Council discussed establishing regulations that limit the amount of warehouse/distribution uses at TCAAP. Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that based on City Council direction on May 19, 2014, revisions have been made to the draft master plan land use map which can be summarized as follows:  Parks in the Creek, Hill, and Town neighborhoods have been adjusted slightly to accommodate recommended amenities. It is important to note that the exact size, dimensions, and layouts of parks will be determined at a later date. The PTRC recommendations focused on the amenities required in each park--how those amenities are accommodated at each site will be determined during park design.  The Town neighborhood park adjacent to the existing water treatment facility has been more clearly identified as a park. The civic area adjacent to the park contains the water treatment facility and space for another civic use such as a small amphitheater or a historical marker/display.  In the Creek neighborhood, the park location has been shifted to be closer to the entrance to the neighborhood. This has been done to limit the amount of program-related traffic driving through the neighborhood. (In the case of the Hill park, it is not possible to shift the location due to the terrain. The ball fields need relatively flat surface areas, and there are limited locations in the Hill neighborhood where this is possible.)  Pocket parks were removed as they are too small to be maintained and programmed by the City. Developers will be encouraged to include pocket parks that will be privately owned and maintained. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 16, 2014 3  An adult athletic facility (softball fields and ice rinks) has been added to the flex space area west of the spine road. Because this facility will need to be lighted and will attract primarily adult users, it is appropriate that it be located outside of residential neighborhoods and along the County road. Shared parking with adjacent businesses will be considered, similar to what is currently in place at Cummings Park.  The size of the flex space land use acreage has decreased by 16.7 acres due to the addition of the adult athletic facility west of the Spine Road as well as the amenities required in the Hill park. This makes the park slightly larger which expanded the residential land use in the Hill neighborhood and slightly decreased the size of the flex space area east of the Spine Road.  A block of residential development at the north end of the Town neighborhood was removed to accommodate anticipated storm water management needs in that area.  A second access road was added to the Creek neighborhood. Ramsey County has informed the City that there is no funding source for the County Road I connection from the “California” portion of the TCAAP site at this time. Without a commitment for a County Road I connection at this location, a second access point is necessary for public safety.  The color on the map for the surface water management area has been changed to better depict its purpose. Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that a comparison of total acreage per land use and per neighborhood, between the December 2013 and May 2014 versions of the draft land use map has been provided to the Council. The total non-developable acres (civic, parks, spine road, and surface water management) increased by 19.6 acres. This is largely due to the increased size of the neighborhood parks and the addition of the adult athletic facility on the spine road. Of the total increase in non-developable area, 3.2 acres is attributed to an increase in the size of the surface water management area. The actual size of the surface water management area will be determined by the Infrastructure Study. Community Development Director Hutmacher commented that in terms of the acreage devoted to particular land uses, the revised draft master plan has 5.9 acres less of residential land, some of which is attributable to additional roads in residential neighborhoods (internal road acreage will be sold as part of larger development parcels), and some of which is attributable to additional surface water management area. Community Development Director Hutmacher reported that the revised draft master plan map also has 16.7 acres less of flex space land use as explained earlier. Ramsey County has expressed concerns regarding the decrease in flex space land use as it has an effect on land sale revenues and the County’s ability to meet its primary goals of job creation and tax base increase. Following a request by the JDA, Mark Ruff, Ehlers, has provided a memo describing the financial consequences of the changes to the draft master plan. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 16, 2014 4 Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that the City Council is scheduled to consider approval of the master plan land use map on June 30, 2014. Direction is needed on the following questions: 1. Does the City Council support the changes that have been made to the revised draft land use map? 2. Would the City Council like to see additional changes made prior to June 30? Community Development Director Hutmacher requested that the Council discuss the TCAAP master plan land use map and provide direction to staff. Mayor Grant encouraged the Council to consider the concerns expressed by some JDA members regarding financial implications of the decrease in developable area. An item of importance to both the County and the City is the creation of jobs. It was noted that a fair amount of property has been pulled out of the master plan land use map for parks and surface water management. He suggested that these areas be balanced against jobs and taxes. Andrew Dresdner, Cuningham Group, reviewed the master plan land use map. He described how the parks and green space has changed the land use map, and he commented that a U12/14 soccer field was added to the Hill neighborhood. Councilmember Holden indicated that the City currently requires commercial properties to have 40% of the site as landscaped area. She expressed concern with how the TCAAP site would look and feel if only 15% of commercial properties would be required to be open or green. She understood that there needed to be a balance, but she did not want to get away from basic Arden Hills’ standards. Councilmember Werner commented on the proposed athletic facilities. He was concerned with the amount of space the softball complex would consume. He discussed his softball experience in St. Peter, Minnesota. He stated that when he lived in St. Peter, the City had six ball fields and 9,000 residents. Councilmember McClung recognized the importance of parks given the proposed density on TCAAP. He believed that green space outlets would be needed for these residents in order to attract them to live and work in this area. Councilmember Holmes commented that there was concern over the park land on the blue I-flex parcel. She suggested that the Town Center be a more active park area as this would draw people into the downtown area. Mayor Grant questioned how many ball fields were needed per 1,000 residents. Public Works Director Maurer explained that the City currently had enough ball fields (six) south of Highway 96. Staff used this data as a starting point for TCAAP and this recommendation was passed along to the PTRC. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 16, 2014 5 Mayor Grant stated that the City currently has six ball fields and a population of 10,000. This is one ball field for every 1,500 residents. He reported that the City had roughly 12,000 jobs in Arden Hills, which meant one ball field for every 2,000 jobs. Public Works Director Maurer explained that adult softball fields are used more heavily by businesses and considering the amount of commercial/business uses that would be developed on TCAAP, the softball complex was proposed. Mayor Grant indicated that the consultants and staff have estimated that TCAAP would have approximately 4,000 jobs and 3,200 residents. At this time, two softball fields and two youth fields are being proposed. He estimated that two ball fields would be sufficient given the correlation between jobs and fields when compared to the rest of the City. Discussion ensued regarding horizontal versus vertical commercial development. Mayor Grant inquired if there was a way to project how many ball fields were needed for a development. Public Works Director Maurer reported that staff calculated adult fields separately from youth fields. Andrew Dresdner believed it was important for the City to have programmed fields and unprogrammed fields. This would allow for residents to use green space in both organized and unorganized ways. Councilmember Holden stated that the Northwest Quadrant was also developing at this time and would need recreational space. She questioned how many acres would be eliminated from the master plan land use map if only a single ball field was proposed on the flex area. Mr. Dresdner stated that this was a 9.2 acre park currently and by having only one ball field, the park size would be reduced to 4.5 acres. Councilmember McClung commented that the residents in this area could still recreate on a 4.5 acre park and then the remaining 4.5 acres could be turned back into flex space. He was in favor of placing additional green space in the Town Center area given its higher density. Councilmember Holden asked how the parks in the Creek and Hill neighborhoods have changed. Community Development Director Hutmacher reported that the Creek park was originally 3 acres in size and has increased to 4.2 acres. The Hill park was previously 5 acres and is now 7.7 acres. Mayor Grant questioned if the adult softball fields could be moved into a neighborhood. Public Works Director Maurer discouraged the Council from moving adult softball fields to a residential area as it could become a problem for the surrounding residents. He requested further comment from the Council on how to proceed with the park land. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 16, 2014 6 Councilmember Holden supported that the park size in the Creek neighborhood, as this area also has room for a pocket park. The Council was in agreement. Councilmember Holden reported that the Hill neighborhood park increased in size by 2.7 acres and now has a proposed baseball/soccer and freestanding U10/12 soccer field. Public Works Director Maurer stated that the easiest way to reduce the size of this park would be to leave the combined baseball and soccer field and eliminate the freestanding U10/12 soccer field. Councilmember Holden supported this recommendation as this would bring the park down to 6.25 acres and the remainder of additional space could be turned in to flex space. The Council was in agreement in supporting a single ball field. Councilmember Holden requested further information on the water treatment/civic park area. Community Development Director Hutmacher reported that this area has a great deal of flexibility and staff is uncertain how much space would be needed for a stormwater structure. She reported that this park area does not take away from flex space. Councilmember Holden believed that the double ball field was the main concern at this time. She supported this park area being reduced in size to support a single ball field. This would provide approximately 5 acres of additional flex space. Councilmember Holmes reported that the 75 parking spaces could also be reduced in size if one of the ball fields was eliminated. The Council was in agreement in supporting a single ball field. Mayor Grant commented that the Council has now agreed to add back 12 acres of flex space. He discussed the possibility of getting a ball field from the National Guard. It was noted that the Council would be considering approval of the final land use map on June 30, 2014. Mayor Grant turned the discussion to density and flex land use. He reported that the Council was in favor of limiting the amount of warehouse distribution uses on TCAAP. Councilmember Holden wanted to see some retail located near Highway 96 on the spine road. She stated that more people would be employed through retail than flex space. Mayor Grant indicated that the Council may need further clarification on how the light blue/flex space land use would be defined. He encouraged Council and staff to consider how TCAAP would look when entering the site from Highway 96. He wanted the development to appear inviting and believed that could be achieved with some retail on Highway 96. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 16, 2014 7 Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that from a land use perspective, if the Council was trying to create a Town Center, it should be an attraction and a destination. She wanted to see the Town Center area prosper long term. Councilmember Holden agreed but believed that a small area of retail could be located along Highway 96. She believed that a coffee shop, bagels, etc. would do well in this area. Councilmember McClung envisioned having a nice water feature with retail and large office buildings at the entrance to TCAAP from Highway 96. Mayor Grant suggested that five acres be set aside for retail at the Highway 96 entrance. He understood that this area should not take away from the Town Center, but wanted to create a welcoming retail presence at the entrance to TCAAP. Public Works Director Maurer commented that if retail was placed in this area that it be located along the spine road to allow for proper egress and ingress. Councilmember Holden was in favor of the five acres of retail appearing in red on the land use map as this would offer clarity to future developers. Councilmember McClung did not believe that this parcel should be zoned retail (red) and suggested it remain flex. He wanted to see the entrance point remain flexible. Community Development Director Hutmacher explained that a commercial transition zone could be considered for the flex land use. Councilmember Holmes suggested that the entrance area be zoned dark purple on the map as this would allow the site to be zoned flex business/retail. Councilmember McClung proposed a hash-marked area on the map to allow for greater flexibility. Councilmember Holden was in favor of having the entrance point in red on the map. Mayor Grant suggested that staff pencil this area in red on the map for the time being and gain feedback from the County regarding this change. He requested that the Council turn the conversation to the surface water amenity. He questioned if staff knew the size of the water amenity. Community Development Director Hutmacher explained that staff was not certain of the size at this time. Councilmember Holden questioned where the three bodies of water would be located. Public Works Director Maurer reviewed the rough location of the three bodies of water with the Council. He reported that the size of each would not be determined until the stormwater ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 16, 2014 8 calculations were complete. He explained that on June 30th the infrastructure design team would be present to discuss this in further detail with the Council. Discussion ensued regarding the location of the bodies of water as well as road access issues. Mayor Grant provided comment on density stating that the consultants were proposing and the County was supporting 1,770 units. He discussed how density could impact land value and property taxes. He suggested that the Council consider this matter and decide on a density number in the near future. Councilmember Holden stated that she would like to see no more than 1,500 units. She believed that any higher density would be difficult for the site to manage. She feared how traffic would be impacted by TCAAP given the fact the area was already congested. Councilmember McClung could support starting at 1,770 units, but could split the difference between the high and low numbers by having 1,650 units. Councilmember Holmes was uncertain where she stood on this issue. She was in favor of lower density for traffic purposes, but had a feeling this would not support the proposed retail. Councilmember Werner understood both the City’s and the County’s point of view on this matter. He preferred that TCAAP have 1,600 to 1,700 units. Mayor Grant stated that he supported 1,500 units on TCAAP. He discussed how density could be altered or expanded vertically to make the lot sizes for homes larger. He understood that there may be transportation issues but also wanted the retail to be properly supported. He wanted TCAAP to resemble Arden Hills and not downtown Minneapolis. Councilmember Holden agreed but stated that TCAAP could have a very urban look. Community Development Director Hutmacher encouraged the Council to visit several neighborhoods in the metro area to see some examples of potential setbacks and densities. Mayor Grant agreed that this would provide the Council with a great visual. He recommended that the Council visit neighborhoods and set a goal for the end of July to come to a decision on density. B. Economic Development Commission Update Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that a State of the City event was held in September 2011 and 2013. The purpose of the event is to build relationships with the Arden Hills business community and to provide local businesses with information about City projects and goals. In order to maximize business turnout for the event, the State of the City has been held on a weekday morning with continental breakfast included. Feedback for both the 2011 and 2013 events was very positive, and the EDC recommends holding a 2014 State of the City event. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 16, 2014 9 Community Development Director Hutmacher explained that last year, the State of the City was held at Flaherty’s Arden Bowl. The total cost of the event was approximately $1,640 ($965 for food and $675 for advertisement/mailings); 75 people attended the event. The EDC recommends that the 2014 event be held at Flaherty’s again, and tentatively scheduled the event for Thursday, September 25, although it was later learned that the EDC Chair would be out-of- town on that date. 1. Does the City Council want to hold a business-focused State of the City event in 2014? 2. If so, is the date and location acceptable to the City Council? 3. What topics would the City Council like to present at the State of the City? 4. In addition to the weekday event, should the presentation be given on an evening or weekend to allow greater resident participation? If so, when should that occur? Community Development Director Hutmacher reported that the EDC has been working on a draft script for the City Video Tour. The total length of the video is expected to be approximately four minutes including testimonials. Filming is expected to begin soon and will utilize the 100 hours provided in the contract with CTV. Mayor Grant recommended that the Council hold a State of the City event for residents given the major development taking place on TCAAP. Councilmember Werner stated that the EDC was in favor of holding the State of the City meeting on two separate dates to promote the attendance of both business owners and residents. Councilmember McClung agreed that a State of the City should be held this year that was focused on both businesses and residents. He believed that two meetings could be held; one during the day and one in the evening and both would have the same agenda. Councilmember Holden also supported a State of the City meeting that would address businesses and residents. She recommended that a date be selected for both meetings. This would ensure that businesses and residents are made aware of the upcoming State of the City event. Discussion ensued regarding the date and location of the State of the City meeting. Community Development Director Hutmacher commented that Flaherty’s could be selected again for the State of the City meeting held in the morning and that City Hall could be used for the evening meeting. Councilmember Holmes suggested 7:30 a.m. on Thursday, September 18th for the State of the City morning meeting and Tuesday, September 23rd at 6:30 p.m. for the evening meeting.

COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES None. ADJOURN Mayor Grant adjourned the City Council work session at 8:24 p.m. __________________________ __________________________ Amy Dietl David Grant City Clerk Mayor Approved: CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION JUNE 23, 2014 5:30 P.M. - ARDEN HILLS CITY HALL CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, Mayor Grant called to order the special City Council work session at 5:45 p.m. Present: Mayor David Grant; Councilmembers Brenda Holden, Fran Holmes, and Dave McClung Absent: Councilmember Ed Werner Also present: City Administrator Patrick Klaers; Public Works Director Terry Maurer; and Community Development Director Jill Hutmacher 1. AGENDA ITEMS A. Review Revisions to the Draft TCAAP Master Plan Land Use Map Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that the City Council met on Monday, June 16, 2014, to review changes made to the December 2013 draft TCAAP master plan land use map. On June 16th, the City Council gave direction for the following changes to be made:  Remove the U10/12 soccer field from the Hill neighborhood park. Reducing the size of the park will also decrease the size of the surrounding neighborhood and restore some acreage to the flex business use area to the south.  Remove one softball field and the ice skating facilities from the West Athletic Complex along the spine road. It was believed that these changes would reduce the park to approximately 5.0 acres.  Change 5.0 acres of flex business to retail use at the Highway 96 access point. Staff indicated that a map depicting these changes was made available to Council this evening. Community Development Director Hutmacher indicated that the Mayor and City Administrator have discussed the results of the June 16, 2014, City Council meeting and think that ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 23, 2014 2 a slight adjustment in the location of the softball facility is worth consideration. The adjustment would move the remaining softball field to the east side of the spine road. Staff reviewed the adjustments to the map in detail with the Council and requested comments on how to proceed. Discussion ensued regarding the land use map options. Councilmember Holden asked if a road could be placed at County Road I since the County was already considering a roundabout. Public Works Director Maurer stated that the consultant team working with Ramsey County has discussed the interchange. He explained that MnDOT and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) would require an Intersection Control Evaluation (ICE) report. Councilmember Holden suggested that this intersection area remain gray in color on the map. Mayor Grant reported that the Council has added back 10.3 acres to the flex space. Community Development Director Hutmacher indicated that this was the case with Option B. Public Works Director Maurer explained that full disclosure would have to be made to the neighborhood with the adult softball field making them aware that the field would be lit at night. Councilmember McClung recommended that the ball field be eliminated rather than bringing it into a residential neighborhood. Councilmember Holmes questioned if the City had approached the National Guard about a softball field. Mayor Grant commented that he did not have that conversation. However, he did speak with County Commissioner Rafael Ortega. He understood that Commissioner Ortega has spoken with the National Guard and the Guard was considering a City use/National Guard use softball field. This would provide the City with a field while the five acres set aside could be turned into additional flex space. Councilmember Holden recommended that the ball field remain in the master plan as it would be used by Arden Hills’ residents and businesses. She feared losing a field in the event that the National Guard was not able to share a field with the City. Councilmember Holmes suggested that the ball fields be located in the downtown area as this would draw people into the Town Center and away from residential neighborhoods. Discussion ensued regarding the balance between residential and commercial land uses. Mayor Grant discussed transit issues the TCAAP site would face. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 23, 2014 3 Councilmember Holden believed that the County was more concerned with job creation rather than the number of residential units. It would cost the City more to service residential units than commercial properties. For this reason, she supported Option B. Mayor Grant asked if the topography in another area of TCAAP would support a ball field. Community Development Director Hutmacher indicated that this may be an option if a grade change was made. Mayor Grant asked if the Council was leaning towards Option B. Councilmember Holmes did not support Option B as she did not believe it made sense to put a ball field in a residential area. Councilmember McClung noted for the record that he objected to Option B. He commented that his least favorite park in the City was Perry Park due to the adult softball field. He suggested that the adult fields be eliminated from TCAAP before eliminating any residential development. He believed that green space near business/commercial was a plus. He explained that he could support Option A. Public Works Director Maurer clarified that adult softball teams were generally organized by employees of local businesses and not neighborhoods. He believed that additional businesses in TCAAP could mean more softball teams. He understood that businesses would not locate in TCAAP just because of the adult softball fields. Mayor Grant opted to have an adult softball field in a residential area. He believed that it would be problematic in the downtown area. He anticipated that teams would still visit the Town Center area after games. Councilmember Holden suggested that the Town Center park/green space be made into flex space in order to increase the amount of flex space. City Administrator Klaers commented that this could be done as part of Option A for the master plan land use map. Councilmember Holmes inquired if the County has requested that the softball field be moved. Mayor Grant clarified that this was his suggestion. Community Development Director Hutmacher explained that this field would be the last one developed. If a softball field was not needed, tennis courts or a soccer field could be developed which may be a better fit with the residential area. City Administrator Klaers commented that he was pleased by the recommendations the Council made at its last meeting. He stated that based on the comments this evening and unless directed otherwise, Option A would proceed. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 23, 2014 4 Mayor Grant was uncertain if he would be able to support Option A. Councilmember Holden suggested that both options be brought forward on June 30th. Councilmember Holmes stated that she could support Option B given the fact that the high density residential would not have to be supplemented. She recommended that the red area on the map near Highway 96 be striped. Councilmember McClung believed that by moving the ball field, the Council would need to discuss density further. He recommended that the park be pulled out of the plan. Community Development Director Hutmacher understood that the Council wanted the retail area near Highway 96 to be flexible, with retail and business uses. Councilmember Holden was in favor of keeping this area retail. She did not believe it would deter from the Town Center area and would serve the traffic along Highway 96 well. Mayor Grant stated that Option B should be presented on June 30th. City Administrator Klaers discussed the agenda items planned for the June 30th meeting and commented that staff would bring Option B to the City Council for approval on June 30th. Councilmember McClung reported that he would have to leave the June 30th meeting on or before 10:00 p.m. Councilmember Holmes recommended that any items that can be removed from the agenda, be pushed to the first meeting in July. The Council discussed how staff should present the master plan land use map at the June 30th meeting to the public. B. City Council TCAAP Meeting Schedule Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that staff was working with Kimley-Horn and Gateway Planning on a detailed schedule for the regulations and policies component of the master plan as well as the infrastructure study. The following draft schedule denotes discussion topics at regular and special City Council work sessions through 2014. A few things to note below: 1.

He indicated that staff should understand that the full Council may not be present at each meeting. Public Works Director Maurer noted that this schedule includes the infrastructure study as well. He noted that staff would be working with Ehler’s to fine-tune the financial model as the consultants work through the infrastructure studies. Community Development Director Hutmacher discussed how the consultants would approach topics with the Council noting that draft information would be provided to the Council prior to each meeting. Councilmember Holden expressed concern with the December 22nd meeting date. She did not believe it would be wise to hold a public hearing for TCAAP issues two days before Christmas. Councilmember Holmes agreed. Mayor Grant commented that the schedule may have to be backed up in order to reach the goal before the end of the year. Councilmember McClung reiterated the fact that each Councilmember had a full-time job and this had to be considered with the rigorous meeting schedule. Mayor Grant understood this concern and believed that the Council may not be able to reach unanimous agreement on every issue. In order to keep with the proposed timeline, just a consensus of the majority of the Council will have to be acceptable on some issues. Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that staff could plan to hold a special Council meeting on December 15, 2014, instead of December 22, 2014. Councilmember Holden suggested that approval for these items be pushed out to the beginning of January 2015 considering how busy people are between November and December. Public Works Director Maurer commented that the infrastructure study discussions could be pushed out to January 2015 to assist with the items needing approval in this calendar year. Mayor Grant supported the aggressive goal as it would keep the Council moving forward. Councilmember McClung agreed but did not see how the Council could stick to the proposed deadline. Community Development Director Hutmacher understood that the entire Council may not be able to attend every work session. However, she encouraged the Council to be in attendance for each of the Gateway Planning workshops. In this regard, she suggested that the September Gateway workshop be changed to September 15th. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JUNE 23, 2014 8 2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES Councilmember Holmes discussed an email she received regarding the trains running through Arden Hills. Mayor Grant commented that the City could contact the NTSB (National Transportation Safety Board). City Administrator Klaers discussed a letter he received regarding this matter.

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS By: David Grant, Mayor ATTEST: Amy Dietl, City Clerk DATE: August 11, 2014 TO: City Councilmembers Patrick Klaers, City Administrator FROM: Mayor Grant SUBJECT: TCAAP Development Discussion Opportunity for Residents Discussion Under this Public Hearing, citizens have an opportunity to discuss ideas regarding TCAAP development. PUBLIC HEARING – 7A MEMORANDUM Page 1 of 1 DATE: August 11, 2014 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Sue Iverson, Acting City Administrator FROM: Jill Hutmacher, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Appointment of TCAAP Developer Advisory Panel At the June 4, 2014, TCAAP Joint Development Authority meeting, the Authority recommended that the City Council appoint a developer advisory panel to provide input to the City, County, and their consultants on positioning the land for sale and on the regulations and policies. A brief memo from Stacie Kvilvang, Ehlers, and list of potential developer participants are attached. Attachments  Memo, Developer Advisory Panel; August 11, 2014  List of Developers; August 7, 2014 MEMORANDUM Memo To: Patrick Klaers, City Administrator From: Stacie Kvilvang - Ehlers Date: August 11, 2014 Subject: Developer Advisory Panel The City, County, and JDA are in the midst of several important processes for the TCAAP development including the infrastructure study, development of the regulations and policies for development and financial modeling for land sales, fee structures, etc. Our experience with large redevelopment projects is that timely, private sector developer input early in these processes will lead to actual development commencing that meets the community’s vision, projects that are financially viable and a better product in the long-term. We envision utilizing the developer panel to provide staff, Ehlers and the City Council insight into: 1. Land pricing, development fee structures (park dedication, assessments, others), timing and phasing of various developments and resident and business perspective on location, required amenities and or value of amenities, etc. ; and 2. Feedback on the rules and regulations for the City Council to consider as they finalize these for the area (street and utility layout, lot sizes, setback requirements, design standards, parking requirements, density, recreation needs, park locations, etc.) We discussed this concept at the JDA meeting on August 4, 2014 and they recommended that the City consider utilizing a panel as discussed above. On August 6, 2014, City and County staff, along with Ehlers met to assemble the attached list of qualified developers we would contact to assist the City and County through these processes. It should be noted that we have not yet contacted all the developers to ascertain their interest, but have had involvement in the past from them for other cities that have undertaken similar processes. We envision that staff and Ehlers would initially meet with all the developers to gain insight into #1 listed above and would summarize those comments for Council review. We would then have a few of the developers from the various dis ciplines meet with the Council at a work session to go over the comments and be available for any questions City of Arden Hills Developer Advisory Panel August 11, 2014 Page 2 the Council may have. This is a great opportunity for the Council to have one-on-one interaction with the developers to have all their questions answered. To address items in #2 above, we would provide the various developers with the pertinent portions of the rules and regulations that would pertain to their area of development expertise to provide any comments back to staff. These again would be compiled and we would follow the same process as noted above to have developers available to go over the comments with the Council and answer any questions. Overall, the purpose of utilizing the developers is to understand what the market can and will build over the next 5 to 10 years, how land use decisions might impact the developability of the area and how best to craft the rules and regulations to assure the City obtains the end development they want. The Council can utilize the information they receive as they deem appropriate in their decision-making process for the area. Please contact me at 651-697-8506 with any questions.
