STAFF COMMENTS – 3A MEMORANDUM Page 1 of 1 DATE: April 27, 2015 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 regarding road construction/transportation in the City of Arden Hills. STAFF COMMENTS – 3B MEMORANDUM Approved: April 27, 2015 CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION FEBRUARY 24, 2015 6:00 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 6:01 p.m. Present: Mayor David Grant; Councilmembers Brenda Holden, Fran Holmes (via telephone), Dave McClung, and Robert Woodburn 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; City Planner Ryan Streff; City Attorney Joel Jamnik; JDA Attorney Mike Norton; and City Clerk Amy Dietl 1. AGENDA ITEMS A. City Administrator Contract Amendment City Administrator Klaers explained that he has been considering his options and dates for retirement. He indicated that this topic was discussed with the Personnel Committee. He suggested to the Personnel Committee a reduced work schedule (30 hours per week) for the next 12 months that would allow him to continue to work on the TCAAP project while phasing into retirement. He indicated that, per direction from the Personnel Committee, the City Attorney has drafted an addendum to his employment agreement. He requested further comment from the Personnel Committee and the Council. Mayor Grant reported that it was the recommendation of the Personnel Committee to move forward with the reduced work schedule for City Administrator Klaers. He believed that the City would benefit by allowing City Administrator Klaers to remain on staff through the further development of TCAAP as well as having him here while the City transitions to a new City Administrator next year. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – FEBRUARY 24, 2015 2 Councilmember Holden agreed stating that the City did not have the time or resources available right now to train in a new City Administrator. She supported the proposed flex hour schedule for the City Administrator. City Administrator Klaers indicated that either party would be able to cancel the addendum to his employment agreement with 30 days notice if the new schedule was not working. Councilmember Woodburn asked if the 10 hour reduction in the work week would allow for his work to still be completed. Mayor Grant anticipated that some work may have to be delegated. He believed that 2016 would be a better time to make a transition in the City Administrator position. Councilmember McClung was willing to support the new work schedule for the City Administrator, but he expressed concern in regard to tasks that may potentially fall through the cracks. Councilmember Woodburn supported the recommendation of the Personnel Committee. Mayor Grant suggested that this matter be brought back to the Council for formal approval at the next regular City Council meeting. B. TCAAP Community Development Director Hutmacher explained that the complete final draft of the TCAAP Redevelopment Code (TRC) was presented to the City Council on February 2, 2015. Since that meeting, staff and consultants have made additional edits for clarity. More extensive changes have been made to Chapter 7 related to façade composition and exterior materials based on City Council direction on February 2, 2015. A red-lined copy showing only changes since February 2, 2015, was included in the agenda packet. Clean copies of individual chapters were also included in the City Council packets for inclusion in the Council’s green binders. Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that the City Council has requested additional information on the remaining policy updates or analyses that remain to be completed prior to TCAAP development. She reviewed this work to be done and schedule with the Council and requested questions or comments. Mayor Grant questioned if staff had any further information on the Fit Test. Community Development Director Hutmacher indicated that staff met with the County yesterday to discuss the Fit Test. Public Works Director Maurer commented that City staff asked the County to clarify what is involved in a Fit Test. This information would be presented to the Council on March 9th by Ramsey County and/or their consultants. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – FEBRUARY 24, 2015 3 Mayor Grant noted that the Council was still going to be finishing the TRC, without feeling constrained by the County. He stated that he believed that it would benefit the City and the County to come to an agreement on the goals for TCAAP in terms of jobs and housing values. He proposed that the Council begin reviewing the TRC at this time and provide direction to staff. Councilmember Holden wanted to see the TCAAP development integrated into the City and not have TCAAP stand alone as a separate development within the City. She requested that TCAAP be referred to as a development area and not a community. Councilmember Holden discussed the Campus Commercial Zoning District (page seven) and asked for clarification on the definition of “alteration” on page ten. Councilmember McClung noted that he was still not supportive of the JDA process, but understood that it was the system being followed. He suggested that the City be cognizant of how the AHATS property will relate to the TCAAP site now and in the future. Further discussion ensued regarding the JDA approval process and how parking would be addressed with respect to the 10% rule. Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that language to Item E on page 17 stating: “up to 10% of total spaces” could be added. Councilmember Woodburn requested that the parking distance be reconsidered. He believed that 1,320 feet as listed on page 17 was too far to have people walk from a parking stall. City Administrator Klaers commented that City Code currently allows for 800 feet. Councilmember Holden recommended that this number be changed to 1,000 feet. Councilmember McClung asked when the JDA would be dissolved. He wanted to be ensured that the JDA would formally end after its purpose was served. JDA Attorney Norton reported that there would be no need for the JDA once all of the land was sold and initially developed. Councilmember Holden questioned the definition of professional offices and if the TRC was going to allow individuals to have studios or hair salons in their home. Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that artist/workshops were allowed within the TRC. She provided further comment on the home occupation and personal services language. City Attorney Jamnik suggested that this portion of the TRC be cross-referenced to the Arden Hills Code (AHC). Councilmember Holden discussed the height and the stacking of housing units for Triplexes and Quads (page 32). ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – FEBRUARY 24, 2015 4 Councilmember Holmes requested that pawn shops not be allowed in TCAAP as they are not allowed in the rest of Arden Hills. Mayor Grant supported this suggestion. Councilmember Holmes recommended that the TRC include language that would allow for an outdoor theater, as well as an indoor theater. Further discussion ensued regard the definition of theater and how this amenity would fit into the Town Center. There was Council consensus to allow a playhouse-type theater as an accessory use in the Town Center. Councilmember Holden commented on the language regarding car sales. She did not want to see car sales within TCAAP. She also questioned if the language within the TRC would allow Bethel to further expand into TCAAP. Mayor Grant discussed office/warehouse space and noted that he did not want to see TCAAP become a warehouse distribution hub. Community Development Director Hutmacher provided comment on the differences between high-tech and med-tech office/warehouse uses. Councilmember Holden discussed Table 6-1 Parking Ratios (page 38) and the location of garages (page 40). Councilmember Holden suggested that the language regarding church copulas be reviewed and clarified. She requested further clarification on how the term “phasing” was being defined by the TRC. JDA Attorney Norton read the language regarding phasing within the TRC to the Council. Councilmember Holden questioned if parking lots would have to be screened on all sides. Community Development Director Hutmacher reviewed the language within the TRC noting that parking lots would have to be screened on all sides if surrounded by streets. Councilmember Holden inquired if added flexibility should be written into the Flex Office Zoning District regarding building height. Councilmember McClung supported added flexibility so long as the space remained office and not warehouse. Community Development Director Hutmacher suggested that allowing a building height of 65 feet in the Flex Office Zoning District if 75% of the square footage is used for office space. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – FEBRUARY 24, 2015 5 The Council supported this recommendation. Mayor Grant was in favor of striking stucco from the list of primary building materials. He stated that he could support it as a secondary or accent material. Councilmember McClung stated that he also does not care for stucco. Councilmember Woodburn stated that he believed that stucco is a very sound building material. He also indicated that it can provide variety in housing aesthetics. After further discussion, a consensus of the Council was reached to allow stucco only as a secondary or accent building material. Councilmember Holden requested further review on the appropriate types of street trees within the TRC. Public Works Director Maurer noted that staff would review this section further and stated that this matter would be addressed within the Public Works Design Manual. Councilmember Holden discussed the location of benches and bike racks (page 93). Councilmember Holden requested that staff review the sign code language to encourage sign sharing. She also wanted to see developers encouraged to build single family homes versus townhomes. Community Development Director Hutmacher discussed the proposed types of housing products for the Creek and Hill Neighborhoods and noted that several detached townhome units may be built. She commented that these units would look like single family homes. She believed that the market would dictate this issue and noted that the RFP could be drafted to encourage different types of housing products. Councilmember McClung stated that he did not believe that the townhome issue would be a concern because the current housing market was not calling for this type of housing at this time. As such, he would not preclude townhouses from being built. Councilmember Woodburn agreed with Councilmember McClung. He asked what the market trends for housing in the metro area are at this time. Mayor Grant suggested that housing colors have parameters, or City approved colors. Community Development Director Hutmacher anticipated that Home Owners Associations (HOA’s) would regulate housing colors. The Council requested that a color palette be developed then turned their discussion to clear height and warehouse distribution uses. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – FEBRUARY 24, 2015 6 Community Development Director Hutmacher reviewed the language within the TRC that would discourage warehousing. She noted that dock doors would be limited, and Class A finishes would be required on buildings. Councilmember Holden supported the clear height being set at 24 feet with a required office percentage of 30%. Councilmember McClung agreed with this suggestion. Councilmember Woodburn also agreed. Mayor Grant did not want to see a large distribution center on TCAAP. He feared how the surrounding residential would be impacted if this were to occur. He requested that the Council discuss the stormwater management options for TCAAP. He questioned if the County or the City would be responsible for the management of stormwater. Public Works Director Maurer commented that it would be the City’s obligation to complete the stormwater management system. He noted that these costs may be able to be assessed back to the developers. However, the City would have the responsibility of the long-term maintenance costs. City Administrator Klaers discussed the joint powers agreement noting that there was a distinct difference between stormwater management and the stormwater feature. Councilmember Holden believed further discussion needed to be held regarding the Council’s vision for the stormwater feature and that a statement on this vision should be in the TRC. 2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES City Administrator Klaers stated that the Council had said that they did not want the County to start working on the Fit Test until after they had completed their work on the TRC and Land Use Plan. He asked if the Council supported the County moving forward with the Fit Test at this time. The Council was in agreement with the County conducting a Fit Test. Mayor Grant acknowledged that additional changes to the TRC may be needed after the Fit Test was complete. ADJOURN Mayor Grant adjourned the special City Council work session at 9:52 p.m. __________________________ __________________________ Amy Dietl David Grant City Clerk Mayor Approved: April 27, 2015 CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MARCH 16, 2015 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 5:03 p.m. Present: Mayor David Grant; Councilmembers Fran Holmes, Dave McClung and Robert Woodburn Absent: Councilmember Brenda Holden (excused) Also present: City Administrator Patrick Klaers; Community Development Director Jill Hutmacher; City Planner Ryan Streff; Associate Planner Matthew Bachler; Planning Commissioner Andy Holewa; Planning Commissioner Clayton Zimmerman; and Planning Chair Roberta Thompson Mayor Grant requested Item B be discussed prior to Item A. 1. AGENDA ITEMS B. Planning Case 15-005 Concept Review Caribou Coffee Drive-Thru City Planner Streff explained that the property is located at 3673 Lexington Avenue North within the Shannon Square Shoppes. The site is positioned north of the railroad tracks owned by Canadian Pacific, south of Cub Foods, east of the Transwestern property occupied by Taylor Corporation, and west of Lexington Avenue North. Other tenants within the retail center include Subway, H&R Block, Great Clips, and UPS. City Planner Streff indicated that Caribou Coffee Company is proposing to create a drive-thru and pickup window along the eastern side of their building which fronts Lexington Avenue North. The purpose of the drive-thru addition is to improve the overall customer experience, accommodate different types of customers, and stay competitive within the market. This addition would allow customers to come and go more quickly from the site without having to always enter the store to make a purchase. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 2 City Planner Streff stated that the creation of the drive-thru will involve the reconfiguration of the parking lot in order to accommodate the drive-thru lane and the stacking of vehicles in this area. Eleven (11) parking spaces would be eliminated from the site to accommodate the stacking of approximately nine (9) vehicles in the drive-thru lane. City Planner Streff reported that in addition to the drive-thru window location on the outside façade of the building, the plan also includes the installation of a menu board and speaker for placing customer orders. As depicted on the site plan, a new landscaping island would be installed along with additional landscaping within former parking stall areas not utilized by the driving lane. A new sidewalk connection and curbing would be provided along the southern portion of the drive-thru area. City Planner Streff reviewed the zoning code requirements associated with this proposal. Jerry Roper, Caribou Coffee Corporate, introduced himself to the Council and discussed the proposed drive-thru. He explained that the cities of Eagan and Apple Valley have been approached to add a drive-thru as well. He noted that he has spoken to the landlord and hoped that the City would be supportive. He believed that the shoe repair tenant might be relocating his business to another location within Shannon Square. He then discussed the plan for the Arden Hills site and reported that the food offerings at Caribou may be expanded. Paul Meyer, Paul Meyer Architects, explained that Caribou was pursuing a drive-thru at this location due to the fact that it has an end cap location. He commented that the drive-thru would offer a great convenience to its customers. Councilmember Holmes believed that the site was too small to accommodate a drive-thru. She questioned if there would be more room for vehicle stacking if the triangle portion of landscaping were removed. Mr. Roper stated that enlarging the drive-thru area would also mean the loss of additional parking, which may be a concern to the City. He reported that the proposed drive-thru was pretty typical compared to other locations. Mayor Grant questioned if there was enough stacking space available to allow for the timely delivery of orders. Mr. Roper believed that the proposed plan would allow for a five car stack and noted that this would allow for the timely delivery of orders. Planning Chair Thompson asked if the new food offerings would cause delays in order delivery. Mr. Roper did not anticipate that this would be a concern and noted that customers with large orders may be asked to pull ahead to allow for other orders to be filled. Once the large orders were ready, Caribou staff would walk them to the car. Mayor Grant believed that the plan was visually pleasing. He understood that drive-thrus were becoming increasingly popular and that the City may need to reevaluate its Code language. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 3 Councilmember Woodburn stated that he understood that Caribou was providing a service to the public and that Caribou knows what is best for its customers. He supported the request. Councilmember McClung believed that the drive-thru was extremely tight and he had concern with how emergency vehicles would access the site. He agreed that the City Code language regarding drive-thrus should be reevaluated. He commented that he was neutral on the request at this time. Councilmember Holmes supported the drive-thru request and noted that Caribou knew their business. Her only concern was with the landscaping triangle as she thought it should be removed to allow easier turning movements within the drive-thru. Mr. Meyer commented that the landscaping island offered a pedestrian connection that may be able to be shifted. He stated that it would make more sense to align this with the sidewalk along the front of the retail center. Mayor Grant encouraged Caribou to consider this option along with where snow would be stored in the winter months given the fact that the space was tight. Mr. Meyer thanked the Council for their input. A. Joint Meeting With Planning Commission City Planner Streff stated that the City Council has asked the Planning Commission to join the Council for a joint work session to discuss the 2015 Planning Commission Work Plan and other planning-related items. He noted that the Planning Commission reviewed the draft work plan at a work session following their regular meeting on March 4, 2015. City Planner Streff indicated that the City Council was being asked to provide input and feedback on the draft work plan, and to discuss other planning-related items. Planning Chair Thompson thanked the Council for their time. She stated that she believed that the Commission has had great conversations with staff about the Planning Commission’s goals and objectives. It was her opinion that feedback from the City Council would be valuable in order to provide proper focus to the group. Mayor Grant suggested that the Commission discuss the Planned Unit Development (PUD) amendment process. He wanted to see this process become more guided. Councilmember McClung agreed and believed that the City was often giving more than it was getting in return with PUD amendment requests. Councilmember Holmes discussed a potential 10% rule for PUD amendments and noted that each request was unique. Further discussion ensued regarding the PUD amendment process. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 4 Community Development Director Hutmacher noted that the PUD process allows staff to consider the City’s Zoning Code in a variable manner with respect to a development site. Mayor Grant commented that he did not object to PUD’s but rather wanted the City to further review the PUD amendment process. Planning Chair Thompson agreed that this process should be further discussed. She encouraged staff and Council to keep the PUD amendment process consistent. Councilmember McClung stated that he had requested earlier this year that the Planning Commission address window coverage. Councilmember Woodburn asked if review of the City’s fee schedule was necessary. Community Development Director Hutmacher reported that this was being done in light of the development that would take place on TCAAP. Staff wanted to be assured that fees and escrows were set to cover staff and City costs. Planning Chair Thompson thanked the Council for their input. C. Bethel University Master Plan Discussion Community Development Director Hutmacher discussed the numerous staffing changes that have occurred at Bethel University. She stated that Patrick Brooke, Chief Financial Officer, and Joe LaLuzern, Vice President of Planning and Research, from Bethel University were in attendance to provide information on Bethel’s Master Plan process; occupancy of 2 Pine Tree Drive; and plans for the former library site and the County Road F office building. Steve Strom, CRESA, indicated that he was working with Bethel University on their real estate needs. Joe LaLuzern, Bethel University, discussed the campus master planning process with the Council. He stated that the two most important points were that Bethel University no longer had use for the County Road F property or the former Ramsey County Library site. He reported that the focus has been how to properly use the 3900 Campus along with the Pine Tree Drive site. He discussed how the Pine Tree Drive site was being used by Bethel University. He commented how Bethel University was partnering with the Minnesota-Iowa General Conference to ensure this organization has office space. Mr. LaLuzern indicated that Bethel University was addressing how to strategically address its space in order to provide guidance for future campus master planning. He provided the Council with a handout and discussed the potential vision for the seminary, main campus and Pine Tree site. He stated that the Pine Tree site affords Bethel University the opportunity to eliminate a number of previously planned building projects. He noted that the trail from the main campus to the Pine Tree site has yet to be completed. Mayor Grant questioned when the campus master planning process would be completed. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 5 Mr. LaLuzern hoped to have this process completed in 2015. Mayor Grant requested that the Council be kept in the loop when this information is finalized. He asked for further information on the County Road F and library properties. Mr. Strom noted that both of these sites were for sale and that one already had a proposed redevelopment. Community Development Director Hutmacher explained that the Council would be considering the Valentine Bluff Subdivision on March 30th which was being proposed by Landmark of Arden Hills LLC. She noted that the Planning Commission recommended approval of this subdivision which includes seven single-family custom-built homes. Mayor Grant asked if these homes would be constructed in 2015. Mr. Strom stated that this was the case. He reported that the County Road F property was under contract and the purchaser was going through due diligence. The closing for this site was scheduled for July 1st. A new business would be coming to Arden Hills to occupy one-fourth of the site and the remainder of the site would be rented to third party tenants. Mayor Grant thanked the Bethel representatives for the update. E. Residential Recycling Carts Discussion City Planner Streff stated that on February 23, 2015, the City Council approved a five (5) year contract with Republic Services for Residential Recycling Services. The new contract indicates that the City will purchase recycling carts for each single-family dwelling to be distributed by Republic Services prior to the start date of the recycling contract. The contract with Republic Services is set to begin on May 4, 2015. City Planner Streff reported that the City applied for a Public Entity Innovation Grant (PEIG) through Ramsey County for assistance with the purchase of residential recycling carts. On February 25, 2015, the City received notice that a grant in the amount of $100,000 was approved by the PEIG Review Committee to assist in the purchase of recycling carts for the Arden Hills Recycling Program. City Planner Streff explained that staff has since obtained recycling cart quotes from four (4) cart companies including Cascade Cart Solutions, Otto Environmental Systems, Rehrig Pacific Company, and Toter Waste Equipment. The quotes included 2,700 sixty-four (64) gallon carts, 200 thirty-two (32) gallon carts, and delivery to Arden Hills. Based on the quotes obtained, Cascade Cart Solutions was the lowest provider at $106,530. The recycling cart package from Cascade includes a black cart made from recycled materials and a green lid. An embedded stamp of the City’s logo will be included on the two (2) sides of the cart along with an embedded “Recycling Only” stamp on the lid with graphics that depict the accepted recyclables. City Planner Streff indicated that the proposed purchase includes 2,700 sixty-four (64) gallon carts and 200 thirty-two (32) gallon carts. The proposed number of carts was based on the current ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 6 number of single-family homes (2,560) within the City and on the expected number of residents that may decide to exchange their larger cart for a smaller thirty-two (32) gallon cart. The industry standard is to order an extra 5% to 10% of the main cart size (64 gallon) to accommodate City expansion, residents that need an additional cart, and warranty exchanges. It is also advised that the City plan for approximately 5% of the carts to be exchanged for a different size (32 gallon). City Planner Streff stated that residents who request a smaller thirty-two (32) gallon cart will be able to exchange their sixty-four (64) gallon cart after a 60-90 day trial period. During the cart roll-out all single-family dwellings will receive a sixty-four (64) gallon recycling cart. Staff envisions that additional carts will need to be purchased in the future as the City expands or as additional smaller carts are requested. Mark Broderick, Cascade Engineering, introduced his company to the Council noting that it is a manufacturing company based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan that has been in operation since 1989. He stated that his containers come with a 10 year warranty. He noted that Waste Management and the City of Shakopee were two of his clients in the metro area. Mayor Grant questioned how the Council wanted to proceed. Councilmember McClung supported the Option 1-1 cart with the pictures of approved recyclable items as this would assist residents with recalling what items can and cannot be recycled. Councilmember Holmes agreed that Option 1-1 for the carts should be selected. Mayor Grant asked if the Arden Hills logo was stamped on one or both sides of the cart. Mr. Broderick reported that the Arden Hills logo would be stamped on both sides of the cart. Mayor Grant and Councilmember Woodburn also supported Option 1-1 for the recycling cart. Mayor Grant questioned what color lid should be selected for the recycling cart. There was consensus of the Council to select the color that was similar to Arden Hills green for the recycling cart lid. Councilmember Holmes inquired if the size of the recycling cart had been determined. She feared that residents would not have enough room in their garage for both a garbage and a recycling cart. Mayor Grant stated that this has yet to be decided. Mr. Broderick encouraged the City to consider a larger sized cart in order to avoid residents from disposing of recyclable materials in their garbage container. City Planner Streff discussed staff’s rationale and industry standards for the cart sizing and believed that the 64 gallon cart would meet the needs of the majority of residents in Arden Hills. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 7 Councilmember Holmes suggested that staff consider purchasing more than 200 32 gallon containers to keep this option available to empty nesters and the elderly. Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that additional containers would need to be purchased for TCAAP so, if a lot of 64 gallon containers were returned for smaller containers, these could be reused in TCAAP. Councilmember McClung believed that the majority of residents would fill a 64 gallon cart on a weekly basis and would be happy with the weekly service. Mr. Broderick indicated that Cascade could always provide more carts in the future, after Arden Hills better determined its needs. Councilmember Holmes recommended that the amount of 64 gallon containers be reconsidered. Mayor Grant reported that residents may find that after recycling each week with their new container that they may actually need to reduce the size of their garbage container. He questioned why staff was proposing to purchase more containers than single-family residents in Arden Hills. City Planner Streff indicated that based on industry standards a 5 ½ % overage was written into the quote to allow the City to have additional containers on site to accommodate City expansion, residents that need an additional cart, and warranty exchanges. Mayor Grant recommended that only 2,600 64 gallon containers be purchased along with 200 32 gallon containers. He stated that this would allow for the City to purchase another 100 containers in the near future after needs are better understood. The Council supported this recommendation and that this purchase be formally approved by the Council on March 30th. City Administrator Klaers commented that ordering now would ensure that the new recycling carts were in place by May 1st. Mr. Broderick encouraged the City to do a two to three month “no swap” time period as this would allow residents to get used to using their new recycling cart. After that time, a call could be made to the City if a change was necessary. City Planner Streff indicated that the City would support a 60-90 day trial time period. The Council supported a 90-day trial period. D. Planning Case 15-002 Preliminary and Final Plat and Master PUD Amendment – Arden Plaza Associate Planner Bachler stated that the City Council reviewed Planning Case 15-002 for a Preliminary Plat, Planned Unit Development Amendment, and Conditional Use Permit Amendment for the Arden Plaza retail center at their Regular Meeting on February 23, 2015. The Council voted to ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 8 table this request to allow the app licant time to provide the City with additional information on the business plan for the Frattallone’s Ace Hardware Store and to address alternative options for exterior storage and seasonal outdoor displays on the property. Associate Planner Bachler explained that staff has since met with Frattallone’s Ace Hardware to discuss the operational needs of their business. The applicant has provided a letter to the City Council describing the current operations of the garden center, including the specific areas used for storage, displays, and sale of different seasonal products. In consultation with staff, Frattallone’s has prepared a Site Plan indicating where they propose to locate exterior storage, outdoor displays and sales, and trash and recycling collection on the property. Staff has provided recommendations to the applicant on what locations and parameters may be appropriate for these uses based on the comments provided by the City Council at the Regular Meeting on February 23, 2015. Associate Planner Bachler reported that the following operational requirements for exterior storage and seasonal outdoor sales on the property are depicted in the Site Plan:  West side of Frattallone’s Hardware store would be restricted to trash and recycling collection only. Materials would be required to be collected within seven days. No exterior storage or seasonal sales would be permitted in this area.  South side of Frattallone’s Hardware store would be designated for short -term exterior storage of seasonal materials and products only. This storage area would be restricted to 12 feet in width.  Seasonal sales would be permitted along the north and east side of the garden center fence. These areas would be restricted to 5 feet in width and a height limit would be placed on the east side display area. A customer access aisle has been provided adjacent to the parking stalls along the north and east side of the garden center to facilitate customer pick -up of materials.  No exterior storage or sales would be permitted within th e fenced garden center during the months of January and February. Winter sales would continue to be permitted under the existing canopy area in front of the Frattallone’s Hardware store. Associate Planner Bachler commented that staff is expecting to bring Planning Case 15-002 to the March 30, 2015, regular meeting for City Council consideration. The applicant is requesting feedback and direction from the City Council on the proposed Garden Center/Outdoor Seasonal Sales Display Site Plan. Based on the comments provided by the City Council, staff will work with the applicant to update the Site Plan prior to the meeting on March 30, 2015. Councilmember Holmes requested further information on the concerns with the request. Associate Planner Bachler stated that the Zoning Code does not permit exterior storage in the B-2 Zoning District. He stated that an existing Conditional Use Permit allows Frattallone’s to have an outdoor sales/garden center. Councilmember McClung indicated there was storage located at the rear of the building, which was also a concern to the Council. Councilmember Holmes stated that there has been outdoor storage at this location for as long as she has lived in Arden Hills and it has not been a problem. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 9 Associate Planner Bachler reviewed the request before the Council noting that the garden center was being proposed to be expanded and that it would have a six foot fence. He noted that a PUD Amendment is required due to the proposed parking lot modifications to accommodate the expansion. Councilmember McClung questioned how the City allowed the garden center to get beyond the 3,500 square feet, which was allowed within the 1997 Conditional Use Permit. City Administrator Klaers stated that this Conditional Use Permit was approved many years ago, and that this was an enforcement issue that would have to be dealt with internally by staff. Mayor Grant commented that he would allow for the expansion of the garden center before he allowed the outdoor storage. Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that staff has spent a great deal of time talking with Frattallone’s and learning how their business works. She discussed how the purple area on the site plan was used as a staging area. Tom Frattallone, Frattallone’s Ace Hardware, indicated that mulch and topsoil was stored on the site during the months of April and May, which accounted for 20% of his sales. He provided further comment on the purchasing trends of his customers. He discussed the proposed height of the bags of topsoil and mulch. Councilmember Holmes asked why Mr. Frattallone was requesting the changes to his site. Mr. Frattallone reported that he wanted to purchase the building and parking lot where he is currently leasing and noted that the expanded garden center would assist him with expanding his business. He stated that he was asking that the mulch and topsoil pallets be allowed to be located on a six inch curb. Community Development Director Hutmacher reviewed how the outdoor storage on the site was currently being managed by Frattallone’s. She reported that the items in the back were mainly trash and recyclables, and that these items are regularly picked up on a weekly basis. Councilmember McClung suggested that the Zoning Code be amended to allow for outdoor storage as he would not support handling this request through a PUD amendment. Mr. Frattallone discussed the area on the south side of his building that has been used for exterior storage. He did not believe that anyone would be able to see the pallets stored in this area given the location of the berm and pine trees. Community Development Director Hutmacher discussed the adjacent condominium building noting that the residents could see into the storage area as it was built up higher than the retail space. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 10 Councilmember Holmes stated that she believed that this was a unique business that required pallets, and that it has had outdoor storage for years. She indicated that she would like the City to work with its businesses to ensure their success. Councilmember McClung reiterated that the exterior storage should not have been allowed at any time. Mr. Frattallone commented that he was willing to buy the site and improve the property. Mayor Grant understood that Frattallone’s was a long standing successful business in Arden Hills. He supported the garden center. He wished that the site was larger in order to allow Mr. Frattallone more options. He too struggled with the outdoor storage on this site. Councilmember Holmes questioned when the outdoor storage would be at its peak. Mayor Grant was in favor of the Council continuing to work with Mr. Frattallone. Mr. Frattallone commented that his busiest time for outdoor storage was April and May; however, he noted that the garden center would have items through the end of November. He asked if the storage area could be treated as retail space associated with the garden center. Community Development Director Hutmacher reported that City Code does not distinguish between outdoor storage and outdoor sales display. She explained that a garden center was both outdoor storage, display and sales. She believed that staff could figure this language out. Councilmember Holmes suggested that staff request an opinion from the City Attorney on this item. Further discussion ensued regarding an outdoor sales area. City Administrator Klaers concurred with Councilmember Holmes and stated that staff would discuss the concerns of the Council with the City Attorney. Mayor Grant requested that staff also speak with Councilmember Holden regarding this Planning Case. 2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES Mayor Grant indicated the Energy Resiliency Task Force met last week. The group will be presenting a final white paper to the JDA in April, and the information will also be shared with the Council and staff. Mayor Grant commented that the City was reactionary in terms of its code enforcement. He believed that this was appropriate for residential properties, but not for commercially zoned properties. He suggested that the City be more proactive on the business side. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 16, 2015 11 Councilmember McClung indicated that as the residential housing ages, the City may want to become more proactive with residential enforcement. He stated that he believed that this was a broader issue that would need to be addressed. Mayor Grant recommended that staff speak with neighboring communities regarding how they address maintaining housing stock and home values. Community Development Director Hutmacher reminded the Council of the EDC interview which would be held on Wednesday, March 18th at 5:30 p.m. ADJOURN Mayor Grant adjourned the City Council work session at 8:20 p.m. __________________________ __________________________ Patrick Klaers David Grant City Administrator Mayor Approved: April 27, 2015 CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MARCH 30, 2015 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 5:30 p.m. Present: Mayor David Grant; Councilmembers Brenda Holden, Fran Holmes, Dave McClung, and Robert Woodburn 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; City Planner Ryan Streff; Associate Planner Matthew Bachler; and City Clerk Amy Dietl 1. AGENDA ITEMS A. Rice Creek Commons Community Development Director Hutmacher stated that Kimley-Horn has completed work on the first part of the Fit Test. The methodologies and assumptions used for Option 1 was discussed with the Council. Michael Lamb, Kimley-Horn, reviewed the findings within the first part of the Fit Test. He then discussed the design and development study. He noted that the Fit Test would be completed in two parts and provided comment on the items that would be addressed in the second step. Councilmember Holden requested further clarification on what step two would entail. Mr. Lamb stated that this step would closely review the redevelopment code from a development perspective. He indicated that he would provide feedback on his review of the Code. Councilmember McClung stated that he was more interested in seeing the results of step two. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 30, 2015 2 Mr. Lamb provided further comment on how the two options would work together subjectively to assist the County and City in planning for Rice Creek Commons. He reported that the Fit Test was focused on market potential, economic development, job growth, and environmental stewardship. These factors were the driving factors for the County. He discussed development prospects within the metro area. He reviewed the proposed lot sizes for residential neighborhoods. He summarized housing trends and family sizes and how this would impact the housing market. Mr. Lamb stated that after reviewing his Fit Test Option 1 findings, he believed that the Creek Neighborhood could yield 111 total units on the 41 acres, which would be roughly 2.7 units per acre. He stated the Hill Neighborhood would have 29 NB1 lots, 80 NB2 lots and 85 NB3 lots with 29 twinhomes, which would yield 223 total units. He noted that the park in the Hill Neighborhood has been shifted slightly to allow for lots to be fronted along the park. Mr. Lamb discussed the Town Neighborhood. Option 1 included 680 multi-family and row house units in the Town Center District. An additional 304 attached and detached townhomes were shown in the Neighborhood Transition 1 and 2 Districts. The retail mixed use area included 40,000 square feet of retail. The total number of units proposed for the entire Rice Creek Commons development in Option 1 was 1318. Councilmember Holmes asked for clarification on the housing numbers. Mr. Lamb reviewed his Fit Test findings in further detail with the Council. Mayor Grant clarified that this was one scenario that was being presented but that it was not necessarily the scenario that would be chosen. Mr. Lamb stated that this was the case noting that he was trying to provide an option that would provide the highest yield. Councilmember McClung asked if the proposed row houses would serve as a buffer next to the multi-family housing. Mr. Lamb indicated that the row houses would serve as a buffer. Mayor Grant was concerned that the Fit Test did not include property tax values, given the fact that this was a concern to the County. Councilmember McClung requested that phase two of the Fit Test include this information. Mayor Grant questioned how the City and County would reach a final design plan. Mr. Lamb believed that the marketplace would determine the final design and that the Fit Test would provide information regarding how many units could fit on the site. Mayor Grant inquired how rents impact property values. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 30, 2015 3 Mr. Lamb discussed how multi-family developments were being constructed in the metro area. He believed that convenient retail services were driving higher rental rates. Councilmember Holden suggested that staff consider how the AHATS parcel could be connected into the TCAAP site in the future, if the parcel became available for redevelopment. Mr. Lamb stated that the current plan does not take this into consideration. Mayor Grant inquired how part two of the Fit Test would differ from part one. Mr. Lamb explained how part two of the Fit Test would differ from part one. He reported that the open and common space would be addressed, and in addition, visual connections would be further described. He elaborated on the pros and cons of the site from a development perspective. Councilmember Holden asked if a grid system would be considered or if the City should move away from this on TCAAP. Mr. Lamb stated that he would lay out the development with a 400-foot block design per the TRC; however, this could be lengthened to 600 feet for some blocks. Councilmember McClung questioned if option two would have approximately the same density as Option 1. Mr. Lamb anticipated that Option 2 would have a higher density. It was his hope to create a plan that would make the best use of the space. He believed that the proposed numbers in Option 1 were fair. He explained that he would be back in several weeks with phase two of the Fit Test. Mayor Grant thanked Mr. Lamb for his presentation and stated that he looked forward to reviewing the Fit Test further on April 13th. 2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES None.

Passed by the City Council of the City of Arden Hills the 27th day of April, 2015. DAVID GRANT, MAYOR ATTEST: AMY DIETL CITY CLERK Publication Date: May 6, 2015 CONSENT ITEM – 5C MEMORANDUM DATE: April 27, 2015 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Patrick Klaers, City Administrator FROM: Matthew Bachler, Associate Planner SUBJECT: Planning Case #15-006 Applicant: Big Ten Supper Club Property Location: 4703 U.S. Highway 10 Request: Conditional Use Permit – Deck Addition and Existing Restaurant Use Requested Action Motion to approve Planning Case 15-006 for a Conditional Use Permit at 4703 U.S. Highway 10 for the existing restaurant use and the proposed deck addition, based on the findings of fact and the submitted plans as amended by the ten (10) conditions in the April 27 2015, Report to the City Council. Background The Big Ten Supper Club is requesting a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to construct a 324 square foot deck addition on the northwest side of the existing restaurant building. The purpose of the deck addition is to provide an outdoor seating area that would accommodate approximately 20 seats. Access to the deck would be provided through a set of double doors that will be constructed along the north building wall. A 42 inch high railing will be used for security and to separate the outdoor seating area from traffic in the parking lot. The Special Requirements for the NB - Neighborhood Business District within the Zoning Code require that the CUP review procedure be followed for all development that involves new building construction, modification of a building’s exterior, or modification of the site. The proposed deck addition is considered to be a modification to the exterior of the existing restaurant and, therefore, the CUP review procedure is required in this case. ______________________________________________________________________________ City of Arden Hills City Council Meeting for April 27, 2015 P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2015\PC 15-006 - Big Ten Bar and Grill - CUP and Site Plan Review\Memos_15-006 Page 1 of 6 The Big Ten Supper Club has operated on the property at 4703 U.S. Highway 10 since 1959. The property was rezoned in 2000 from B-2 - General Business District to NB - Neighborhood Business District. As a result of the rezoning, the existing restaurant use became a legal nonconforming use under the Zoning Code because it operates without a CUP, which is required for all restaurant uses in the NB District. Section 1350 of the Zoning Code regulates nonconforming uses and buildings. Restrictions are placed on the expansion of legal nonconforming uses, but the Zoning Code does permit their continuance through repair, replacement, restoration, maintenance or improvement. The proposed deck addition would be an expansion of the nonconforming use. A CUP is being requested for the property as a whole so that the use can come into conformance with the NB District requirements for restaurant uses. The applicant has submitted a Site Plan of the property that indicates the location of the proposed deck addition. Preliminary construction drawings for the deck have also been provided. These items have been included in Attachments C and D. Discussion A full evaluation of the proposal was presented to the Planning Commission at their April 8, 2015, Regular Meeting. The staff report to the Planning Commission on this case is included in Attachment G. The proposed deck addition would be in compliance with the Zoning Code requirements for structure setbacks and lot coverage in the NB District. The Zoning Code requires that restaurant uses provide one off-street parking stall for every two seats. With the addition of the outdoor seating area, the number of seats at the Big Ten Supper Club is expected to increase to 176, which would require 88 parking stalls. In their review of this case, the Planning Commission recommended as a condition of approval that the parking lot be restriped to include 84 parking stalls as shown on the proof of parking plan (Attachment E). Since the Planning Commission meeting, the applicant has completed the majority of the restriping of the parking lot and expects the remainder of the work to be completed shortly. Conditional Use Permit Evaluation Criteria Section 1355.04 Subd. 3 of the Arden Hills Zoning Code lists the criteria for evaluating a Conditional Use Permit. The City Council should consider the effect of the proposed use upon the health, safety, convenience and general welfare of the owners and occupants of the surrounding land, in particular, and the community as a whole, in general, including but not limited to the following factors: 1. Existing and anticipated traffic and parking conditions ______________________________________________________________________________ City of Arden Hills City Council Meeting for April 27, 2015 P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2015\PC 15-006 - Big Ten Bar and Grill - CUP and Site Plan Review\Memos_15-006 Page 2 of 6 2. Noise, glare, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air pollution, heat, liquid or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics 3. Drainage 4. Population density 5. Visual and land use compatibility with uses and structures on surrounding land 6. Adjoining land values 7. Park dedications where applicable 8. Orderly development of the neighborhood and the City within the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Code and the Comprehensive Development Plan for the City. The Planning Commission and City Council may place conditions on a permit if deemed necessary to protect the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. Conditional Use Permits are granted for a specific use at a specific site and are not transferable. Additional Review City Building Official The City Building Official reviewed the preliminary construction drawings provided by the applicant. He has noted that the final plans will need to provide proper clearance for access on and off the deck and that the deck will need to comply with the Minnesota State Code for accessibility. Findings of Fact The Planning Commission reviewed Planning Case 15-006 at their regular meeting on April 8, 2015. Draft minutes from the meeting are included in Attachment H. The Planning Commission offers the following findings of fact for consideration 1. The property at 4703 U.S. Highway 10 is located in the NB District. 2. The Special Requirements for the NB District require that the Conditional Use Permit review procedure be followed for all development that involves new building construction, modification of a building’s exterior, or modification of the site. 3. The proposed deck addition is considered to be a modification to the exterior of the existing restaurant and the Conditional Use Permit review procedure is required. 4. The property is considered to be legal nonconforming because it operates without a Conditional Use Permit, which is required for all restaurant uses in the NB District. 5. A Conditional Use Permit for the restaurant use is being requested to bring the property into compliance with the Zoning Code. 6.

MEMORANDUM DATE: April 8, 2015 PC Agenda Item 3.A TO: Planning Commission FROM: Matthew Bachler, Associate Planner SUBJECT: Planning Case #15-006 - Public Hearing Required Applicant: Big Ten Supper Club Property Location: 4703 U.S. Highway 10 Request: Conditional Use Permit – Deck Addition and Existing Restaurant Use Requested Action The Big Ten Supper Club has requested a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a proposed deck addition to the existing restaurant building located at 4703 U.S. Highway 10. The requested CUP would also encompass the existing restaurant on the property. Background The Big Ten Supper Club has operated on the property at 4703 U.S. Highway 10 since 1959. The property was rezoned in 2000 from B-2 - General Business District to NB - Neighborhood Business District. As a result of the rezoning, the existing restaurant use became a legal nonconforming use under the Zoning Code because it operates without a CUP, which is required for all restaurant uses in the NB District. The Zoning Code states that nonconforming uses may continue, however, they cannot be expanded. In this case, a CUP is required for the deck addition to bring the property into compliance with the CUP requirements of the Zoning Code. 1. Overview of Request The Big Ten Supper Club is requesting a CUP for a deck addition measuring 18 feet by 18 feet, a total area of 324 square feet, which would be located on the northwest side of the existing restaurant building. The purpose of the deck addition is to provide outdoor seating to accommodate approximately 20 seats. Access to the seating area would be provided through a set of double doors that will be constructed along the north building wall. A 42 inch high railing ______________________________________________________________________________ City of Arden Hills Planning Commission Meeting for April 8, 2015 P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2015\PC 15-006 - Big Ten Bar and Grill - CUP and Site Plan Review\Memos_15-006 Page 1 of 8 will be used for security and to separate the outdoor seating area from traffic in the parking lot. The deck would be constructed on the existing parking lot surface and would not increase the impervious coverage on the property. The requested CUP would also encompass the existing restaurant use on the property. The property is considered to be legal nonconforming under the Zoning Code because it operates without a CUP, which is required for all restaurant uses in the NB District. A CUP is being requested to bring the property into compliance with the Zoning Code. The applicant has submitted a Site Plan of the property that indicates the location of the proposed deck addition. Preliminary construction drawings for the deck have also been provided. These items are included in Attachments C and D. 2.

Zoning Regulations A. Special Requirements for the Neighborhood Business District – Section 1320.08 The Special Requirements for the NB District within the Zoning Code require that the CUP review procedure be followed for all development that involves new building construction, modification of a building’s exterior, or modification of the site. The proposed deck addition is considered to be a modification to the exterior of the existing restaurant and, therefore, the CUP review procedure is required in this case. Restaurant uses are allowed in the NB District only after the approval of a CUP. No CUP has been issued by the City for the existing restaurant on the property. The Big Ten Supper Club property was rezoned in 2000 from B-2 - General Business District, which does permit restaurant uses without CUP approval. As a result, the existing restaurant is now considered to be a legal nonconforming use. Section 1350 of the Zoning Code regulates nonconforming uses and buildings. Restrictions are placed on the expansion of legal nonconforming uses but the Zoning Code does permit their continuance through repair, replacement, restoration, maintenance or improvement. The proposed deck addition would be an expansion of the nonconforming use. A CUP is being requested for the property as a whole so that it can come into conformance with the NB District requirements for restaurant uses. B. Lot Size, Structure Coverage, and Landscaping The minimum lot size requirement for the NB District is 13,000 square feet. The property at 4703 U.S. Highway 10 is 47,622 square feet in size. A minor subdivision and lot consolidation was recently approved by the City in Planning Case 14-031 that will increase the area of the property to 50,295 square feet. The maximum structure coverage in the NB District is 35 percent. The principal building has a footprint of 4,806 and currently covers 10.1 percent of the lot. With the addition of the proposed deck, structure coverage would increase to 5,130 square feet, or 10.8 percent of the lot. The property is also subject to special requirements for the NB District, which state that restaurants shall not exceed 3,000 gross square feet in size. The proposed deck addition would not increase the gross square foot area of the restaurant. Gross square footage does not include areas such as uncovered decks or patios. Properties in the NB District are required to maintain minimum landscape coverage of 35 percent. The existing landscaped area on the lot is 6,710 square feet, or 14.1 percent of the total ______________________________________________________________________________ City of Arden Hills Planning Commission Meeting for April 8, 2015 P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2015\PC 15-006 - Big Ten Bar and Grill - CUP and Site Plan Review\Memos_15-006 Page 3 of 8 lot area. The proposed deck would be constructed on an existing parking lot surface and would not decrease the landscape coverage on the property. C. Structure Setbacks The existing building on the property is in conformance with the setback requirements for principal structures. The deck addition would not expand the existing structure closer to a property line other than towards the northwest side property line. With the addition of the deck, the structure would be located 83.4 feet from the northwest side property line. Principal structures in the NB District must maintain a minimum side yard setback of 5 feet. D. Requirements for Parking, Loading, and Circulation Section 1325.06 of the Zoning Code states that restaurants must provide one off-street parking stall for every two seats. Currently, the Big Ten Supper Club has a total of 156 seats. With the addition of the outdoor seating on the deck, this number is expected to increase to 176 seats. Based on the Zoning Code requirements, 88 stalls would need to be provided. The Site Plan provided by the applicant shows 64 stalls striped on the parking lot. The applicant has also submitted a proof of parking plan (Attachment E), which indicates that 84 stalls could be accommodated on the site. As a condition of approval, staff is recommending that the parking lot be restriped to include the 84 stalls as shown on the proof of parking plan. Existing and Proposed Lot Coverage Existing Conditions Proposed Conditions Square Feet Percentage Square Feet Percentage Lot Area (min. 13,000 sq. ft.) 47,622 - 47,622 - Structure Coverage (max 35%) 4,806 10.1% 5,130 10.8% Landscape Coverage (min 35%) 6,710 14.1% 6,710 14.1% Proposed Setbacks Required (NB District) Existing Proposed Front Yard 20’ 85.5’ 85.5’ Rear Yard 20’ 40.2’ 40.2’ Northwest Side Yard 5’/15’ (min/total both side yards) 88.3’ 83.4’ Southeast Side Yard 5’/15’ (min/total both side yards) 71.9’ 71.9’ ______________________________________________________________________________ City of Arden Hills Planning Commission Meeting for April 8, 2015 P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2015\PC 15-006 - Big Ten Bar and Grill - CUP and Site Plan Review\Memos_15-006 Page 4 of 8 The construction of the deck would result in the loss of two designated handicap parking stalls in front of the restaurant. Staff is recommending as a condition of approval that when the lot is restriped that handicap stalls be provided on the property consistent with ADA parking requirements. 2. Conditional Use Permit Evaluation Criteria – Section 1355.04 Subd 3 Section 1355.04 Subd. 3 of the Arden Hills Zoning Code lists the criteria for evaluating a Conditional Use Permit. The Planning Commission and City Council should consider the effect of the proposed use upon the health, safety, convenience and general welfare of the owners and occupants of the surrounding land, in particular, and the community as a whole, in general, including but not limited to the following factors: 1. Existing and anticipated traffic and parking conditions 2. Noise, glare, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air pollution, heat, liquid or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics 3. Drainage 4. Population density 5. Visual and land use compatibility with uses and structures on surrounding land 6. Adjoining land values 7. Park dedications where applicable 8. Orderly development of the neighborhood and the City within the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Code and the Comprehensive Development Plan for the City. The Planning Commission and City Council may place conditions on a permit if deemed necessary to protect the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. Conditional Use Permits are granted for a specific use at a specific site and are not transferable. 3. Additional Review City Building Official The City Building Official reviewed the preliminary construction drawings provided by the applicant. He has noted that the final plans will need to provide proper clearance for access on and off the deck and that the deck will need to comply with the Minnesota State Code for accessibility. Findings of Fact The Planning Commission must make a finding as to whether or not the proposed application would adversely affect the surrounding neighborhood or the community as a whole based on the aforementioned factors. Staff offers the following findings for consideration: ______________________________________________________________________________ City of Arden Hills Planning Commission Meeting for April 8, 2015 P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2015\PC 15-006 - Big Ten Bar and Grill - CUP and Site Plan Review\Memos_15-006 Page 5 of 8 1.

Bids were solicited during March and opened on Thursday March 19, 2015. A portion of the costs for the 2015 PMP project are proposed to be assessed against the benefitting properties according to the City’s Assessment Policy. In order to assess these costs, the City must follow the process outlined in State Statute 429. On March 30, 2015, after the bids were opened, the City Council adopted Resolution 2015-015 Declaring the Amount of the Cost to be Assessed and set today as the date for the assessment hearing. A public hearing prior to adopting the assessments is a requirement of the State Statute 429. The proposed assessment area is shown on the attached exhibit. The project is proposed to be assessed consistent with the City’s Assessment Policy and past practices, which states that 50% of the costs for roadway improvements will be assessed in residential areas, with the remaining portion financed by City funds. Financing for the project is PUBLIC HEARING - 7A MEMORANDUM Page 2 of 3 consistent with City policy and past practices and is summarized in the table below. The project costs include engineering and overhead costs as outlined in the Assessment Policy. The calculation of the amount to be assessed as approved by Council Resolution 2015-015 is shown below. Also, the Council established that the interest rate would be 4.30% and the term would be 10 years. Item Calculation Result Half of Construction Cost $1,622,248.79/2 $811,124.39 Add 37% Overhead $811,124.39 x 1.37 $1,111,240.41 Divide by Assessable Units $1,111,240.83/129 $ 8,614.27 The Assessment Policy states that the City Council shall retain the right to review each project on its own merit and deviate from any portion of the policy as it deems proper. As was discussed at the Public Hearing held on January 12, 2015 there are six properties currently in this proposed assessment that were previously assessed for street projects in 1995 and 1998. The 1995 project dealt with the reconstruction of County Road F (Lake Valentine Road) and it affected two properties. The following list provides the address and amount of the 1995 assessment: 1. 3988 Glenview Road $4,527.32 2. 1691 Crystal Avenue $5,158.30 The 1998 project reconstructed Fairview Avenue from Lake Valentine Road to Gramsie Road. It affected four properties in the current assessment project. The following list provides the property address and the amount of the 1998 assessment: 1. 1759 Crystal Avenue $3,598.20 2. 1758 Crystal Avenue $3,998.00 3. 1761 Gramsie Road $3,998.00 4. 1777 Gramsie Road $3,998.00 These six properties are in the current assessment roll. There was a number of comments about these lots at the Public Hearing. The minutes from the January 12, 201 5 Public Hearing are attached as is an exhibit showing these properties. The Council is being asked by staff to give direction on these six properties. The y could be left in the project at full assessment amounts, they could be removed from the project and not assessed or they could be left in the project but given some or full credit for the previous assessment paid. When the Council considers adoption of the Resolution adopting the assessment roll staff will need direction on how to deal with these six properties. If their assessment amount is changed by the Council they will be sent a letter documenting the change. The full detailed assessment roll as mailed to each of the property owners is attached. To date, no formal objections have been submitted in writing to City staff. Any written objection received prior to Monday evening will be provided to the City Council at the assessment hearing. Page 3 of 3 As provided for in State Statute, no appeal may be taken as to the amount of any assessment adopted unless a written objection signed by the affected property owner is filed with the City at or prior to the assessment hearing. After the adoption of the assessment roll, property owners who have submitted an objection in writing have 30 days to serve notice of an app eal to the City, and within 10 days after serving notice to file with the District Court. Recommendation The Council should hold the Assessment Hearing first. Staff is prepared to make a presentation with a full discussion of the unique parcels discussed previously in this memo. After the Assessment Hearing is closed Council should consider adopting Resolution 2015-028 Adopting the Assessment Roll for the 2015 Pavement Management Program-Venus/Crystal Neighborhood with an changes they deem appropriate.

Such proposed assessment roll, a copy of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, is hereby accepted and shall constitute the special assessment against the lands named therein, and each tract of land therein included is hereby found to be benefited by the proposed improvement in the amount of the assessment levied against it. 2. Such assessment assessed against each parcel of land shall be payable in equal annual installments extending over a period of ten (10) years, unless prepaid, the first of the installments to be payable with general taxes levied in 2015, collectible with such taxes during the year of 2016. The assessment shall bear interest at the rate of 4.30 percent per annum from the date of the adoption of this assessment resolution. To the first installment shall be added interest on the entire assessment from the date of this resolution until December 31, 2015. To each subsequent installment when due shall be added interest for one year on all unpaid installments. 3. If the adopted assessment differs from the proposed assessment as to any particular lot, piece, or parcel of land, the City Administrator shall mail to the owner a notice stating the amount of the adopted assessment. The administrator must also notify affected owners of any changes adopted by the Council in interest rates or prepayment requirements from those contained in the notice of the proposed assessment. 4. The owner of any property so assessed may, at any time prior to certification of the assessment to the county auditor, pay the whole of the assessment on such property, with interest accrued to the date of payment, to the City Administrator, except that no interest shall be charged if the entire assessment is paid by May 27, 2015.

ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARDEN HILLS THIS 27th DAY OF APRIL, 2015. _____________________________ David Grant, Mayor ATTEST: _______________________________________ Amy Dietl, City Clerk Page 1 of 2 DATE: April 27, 2015 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers FROM: Patrick Klaers, City Administrator Sue Iverson, Director of Finance and Administrative Services SUBJECT: 2016 Preliminary Budget Discussion Background: City staff is beginning the process of developing a Preliminary 2016 Budget. As we progress forward and take the necessary steps, staff needs general direction and guidance from the Council with regard to changes for the coming year. As of this time, we are not under levy limits for 2016. Discussion: Preliminarily, staff has identified a number of factors that will influence the 2016 Budget. Some are identified as follows:  Tax Levy – what is the Council’s comfort level? Last year it was a 3.1% increase. A 1% levy increase translates to approximately $35,000.  Overall budget changes – preferences/limits?  Personnel – any additions that you would like to see?  Salaries and Benefits. We are currently undergoing a Compensation Study which the Personnel Committee is reviewing. Council direction on implementation of the study will help establish the salaries and benefits for 2016.  Employee benefits costs (health and dental). This is also being discussed with the Personnel Committee as part of the Compensation Study. We do not have preliminary numbers for the 2016 costs yet, but will be getting these in the next few months. The City participates in the Lake Country Service Cooperative health insurance pool. There are about 60 City, County and other Governmental Agencies that participate in this pool. In 2013 the City discontinued the Co-Pay Plan and added another high-deductible plan NEW BUSINESS – 9A MEMORANDUM Page 2 of 2 and added a third high-deductible that complies with the new Health Care Act just to be safe (this is a very high deductible and the Co-op allowed members to add this for compliance purposes). Over the past few years, the City has equally shared rate increases with the employees. Staff would recommend continuing to use this formula. (The City’s cost per employee per month has only increased by $22 over the last seven years since we started the High Deductible plans with HSAs. We have also gotten back over $40,000 in dividends in four of the last five years from the Co-op). The current City contribution towards health and dental is $699.61 per month, with a cap of $2,000 per year for those choosing single coverage being placed into the HSA accounts from the City contribution (this cap was instituted for the 2015 year).  Update the five year CIP. Staff is in the process of updating the current plan to discuss with the City Council at the June work session. Does the City Council have any direction they would like to provide staff with in regard to the CIP?  An area of need is with Transfers of the General Fund monies (tax revenue) to the PIR Fund for Street PMP projects and for park improvements. Currently no transfers to the PIR Fund are taking place, the City needs to establish a funding source for its share of the street projects and for park improvements.  The EDA Budget is another area where staff sees a need. This topic is being discussed at the EDA meetings.  As a step in creating a quality budget document, performance measures/service indicators should be established for each department. Some of these may come about as a result of areas that the Council would like to improve. Goals and objectives should also be established for each department. These would need to be established in 2016, then in subsequent years actual performance can be tracked to show progress against these goals.
