RICE CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT
Mr. Fritsinger stated Kate Drewery would not be in
attendance tonight. Later this year, the scheduling of
another meeting would be attempted.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Chair Winiecki asked Council Member Aplikowski to update the
Planning Commission on the status of the Economic
Development Committee.
Aplikowski stated Arnold Lindberg has been elected
Chairperson and the Vice Chair is Jerry Moehnke. The
initial focus of this committee is to collect a current
listing of all businesses in Arden Hills. A letter will
then be sent out explaining what the Economic Development
. Committee is and how they can help local businesses. The
committee's first step will be to draw the interested
\.... ". "
Minutes Page 2 02/02/94 .
businesses into focus groups, possibly by quadrant location,
and discuss the community.
Chair Winiecki asked if the Economic Deyelopment Committee
would be made aware of the Lexington Ayenue study?
Councilmember Aplikowski replied at some time the two
committees should meet together and discuss these issues;
but until then, the committee will be briefed on Planning
Commission issues.
Mr. Fritsinger stated the committee is designed to inform
the businesses about the community and the City procedure.
Later, they will advance to discussions on land deyelopment.
Chair Winiecki then asked if the committee is responsible
for the promotion of Arden Hills for prospective businesses.
Councilmember Aplikowski expressed this was a mid-summer
goal. If the committee had been in existence prior to
Eyerest approaching the City, they would haye been the first
group to meet with Everest and possibly even the Ryder case
two years ago. Currently, the committee is in the process
of familiarizing themselves with the City. Once this .
process is completed, the committee can begin to discuss
City ordinances and any issues of concern.
Chair Winiecki asked if it was too early to introduce Arden
Hills to the Fox Network. A current newspaper article
stated the network was looking for a location close to
Minneapolis, St Paul and the airport. Chair Winiecki felt
Arden Hills was a prime location.
Mr, McGraw asked Councilmember Aplikowski the difference
between the Community Development Commission and the
Economic Development Committee. He explained he didn't need
an answer now but to think about it. In the past, Arden
Hills hasn't had any problems like the recent failure of
Arden Plaza. He stated no action has been taken to
reyitalize and redevelop this area. It is being overlooked
until the City attempts to deyelop the T.C.A.A.P. area.
Mr. McGraw responded with an idea of hiring someone to bring
new businesses in and reyitalize Arden Hills. He feels if
these areas are oyer looked the decline will continue and
driye out more businesses. He referred to the City of
Roseyille's clean-up and development projects undertaken in
the last few years. He then proceeded to compare the
development of Arden Hills which has been extremely minimal. .
He stated more money is spent on the development of colleges
which aren't taxable.
, ,
Minutes Page 3 02/02/94
.
Mr. McGraw indicated he felt if money isn't spent now to
redevelop property in four years the price to redevelop will
be four times the amount. The Lexington Business area is
large enough to house a large business, for example Cub, to
bring tax money in. Study after study will not solve the
problems; this is evident with the Gateway Business
District. The responsibilities to improve these areas has
not been taken seriously, and the Arsenal property hasn't
been handled effectively. A lobbyist should be hired to
work on the T.C.A.A.P. property.
Mr, McGraw further stated the City has money in the bank,
and it should be spent to save and develop the area. If
areas of the City start to rot, soon nothing will be left.
Mr. McGraw wants to see a consultant come in to attract
businesses and redeyelop areas rather than produce more
studies on these issues. The City has many tools available
to be used; ie. TIF or tax breaks. He feels the City is
rapidly declining and a new look needs to be taken at
improving the situation. Other cities are taking these
steps and Arden Hills should to.
Councilmember Aplikowski stated she agreed with Mr. McGraw,
and at this time nothing was being accomplished with the
. Everest group. There is nothing actively being done with
the businesses at this time. If the City's businesses are
viable, then the City itself will also be yiable.
Councilmember Aplikowski indicated that during her run for
Council she had been informed there would be no way to start
an Economic Development Committee. After being elected, she
was then challenged to find seyen people who would be
interested in these kinds of issues to serve on a committee.
Chair Winiecki asked if Shoreyiew has a consultant who helps
approach possible new businesses.
Mr. Fritsinger replied they have an Economic Development
Commission that has been in place for seyeral years.
Shoreview's staff includes a Community Deyelopment Director,
a City Planner and with the help of the Economic Deyelopment
Commission they are active in business
retention/recruitment.
Mr. McGraw stated one problem with business is many times
employees are let go to help cut costs, and the business is
left with a lack of staff to serve customers. These
businesses then lose more prospective customers due to the
lack of quality service consumers expect. He then stated
there are too many conflicts of interest in politics which
. can hurt a City's progress in working with businesses.
.'
Minutes Page 4 02/02/94 .
Chair Winiecki asked for further questions from the
committee.
Mr. Rye asked if staff was actively working with the owners
of Arden Plaza.
Mr. Fritsinger replied the plaza is in the process of
foreclosure, and he is currently working with the property
managers hired by the receivership.
Mr. Rye stated the plaza is an ideal spot for a clinic
because the layout of the property makes it a destination
spot.
Chair Winiecki again asked the difference between Shoreview
and Arden Hills regarding their respective staff?
Mr. Fritsinger explained Shoreyiew has full time positions
and Arden Hills doesn't. Mr. Fritsinger's position has a
wide variety of duties rather than just contacting
businesses and working on development.
Chair Winiecki expressed agreement with Mr. McGraw. She
felt promotional letters and brochures are needed to explain .
Arden Hills, the property available to be deyeloped and the
help available for businesses interested in Arden Hills.
Mr. Rye asked if a brochure is as important as a personal
contact with a prospective business.
Councilmember Aplikowski stated most people have a
misconception of Arden Hills and think the City has been
annexed by either New Brighton or Shoreview.
Mr. Fritsinger stated a brochure is a more detailed overview
and can be reyiewed by the business until the next contact
with the staff.
Councilmember Aplikowski explained the City has nothing in
place which identifies the interest to attract businesses to
Arden Hills.
Mr. Rye asked if Staff'has the technology to produce a
brochure.
Steye Erickson stated we need a flexible brochure to focus
on service, retail or manufacturing depending on the type of
business. Fist we need to know how far the City is willing
to go on roads and development. He mentioned Shoreview's
plans to expand the strip where Dairy Queen is located. .
Minutes Page 5 02/02/94
. .
Mr. Fritsinger stated although the City has TIF Districts,
it has not yet used this tool; the exception being Cottage
Villas which haven't signed the development agreement.
Shoreview also uses TIF in its economic development efforts.
Mr. Rye asked that the brochure include a list of properties
which may specifically fit their needs. He thought maybe an
in house brochure tailored to the prospective business.
Mr. Fritsinger stated many adjacent communities have put
together brochures to explain what is available for
developers.
Mr. Rye asked if the City could possibly tie in with the
County's effort to establish a GIS network.
Mr. Fritsinger stated he would be concerned about this
effort as the County rarely responds to questions and
requests now.
Chair Winiecki asked, instead of focusing on developing the
roads in the area of Lexington Avenue, should the main
objectiye be to plan for the redevelopment of the property.
. Mr. Fritsinger stated this was part of the discussion the
Planning Commission needs to undertake.
Chair Winiecki asked if a staff person should be hired for
this purpose.
Mr. McGraw stated to tear down the existing buildings on
Lexington Ayenue would help to attract more business.
Without the expertise and backing from the City nothing can
be done. No progress will be made unless some action is
taken. The City's property taxes are high because of a loss
of business taxes; this leaves the homeowners picking up the
bill.
Mr. Fritsinger agreed with Mr. McGraw that as a business
leayes the community, the tax burden does shift. He further
stated the development plans for this area appear to haye
died after the study was completed.
Councilmember Aplikowski stated other cities have undertaken
the basics necessary for economic deyelopment; meaning, when
someone refers to a particular city they can also name
someone on staff. Arden Hills has not been active in
deyelopment and in the past stayed a sleepy little village.
The residents will pay for this approach unless the City
. spends less time studying and more time taking action. The
Minutes Page 6 02/02/94 .
addition of Mr. Fritsinger will help the City in these
development efforts.
LEXINGTON AVENUE STUDY
Mr. Fritsinger presented the Lexington Avenue Area Study
with the background on the Roberts development curb cut
request for the Zeos building, This request was originally
tabled by City Council for additional reyiew by the Planning
Commission. He thought the original study's intent was for
redeyelopment, but no action has been undertaken since the
study's completion. Mr. Fritsinger recalled at the time the
curb cut request was reyiewed, Councilmember Probst stated
being worried about the businesses operating in the
building; the City's long term goals were not being
considered by allowing the Packaging Store to locate here.
There was a difference in the issues which occurred in the
past and the issues taking place now; ie: Cub trying to
deyelop adjacent to Target. Mr. Fritsinger indicated
several options exist for reconsidering this study and the
recent request. This could include a joint meeting with
Shoreview and Arden Hills to discuss traffic. Ramsey County
has stated medians will eventually go in on Lexington
Avenue, but it was unclear when and what the City's current .
options are.
Mr. McGraw thought a frontage road could be inserted and
there could be an outlet from the filling station. Dunlap
is another option, and the traffic circle is adequate. He
stated we should wait to see what comes to the area before
we change the roads since the roads and sewers will change
with any proposal.
Mr. Rye stated if a controlled access is desired, it will
have to come off of Grey Fox Road and then a dead end road
be located in front of the railroad tracks.
Mr. McGraw replied to plan any road would be futile since
the property is empty and any planning of the roads would
make more sense when a business is interested.
Mr. Fritsinger thought a debate would be helpful to
brainstorm ideas.
Chair Winiecki asked the commission to moye towards a
consensus to send to the City Council.
Mr. Rye stated an access to County Rd E, rather than cutting
across Snelling Ayenue, would help ease traffic. There
should also be better signage. .
Minutes Page 7 02/02/94
.
Mr. Erickson explained until a deyelopment comes to the
property, road discussions are futile. The property is more
desirable now because of Target Greatland and the customers
generated from them. It will bring in business and traffic
into the area. His original understanding was Target
planned to build with a grocery store. The idea was later
discarded when Target made plans for their new Target
Greatland. Mr. Erickson felt the next best potential
development area would be directly across the street. He
felt the Planning Commission's next step would be to help
the Economic Development Committee. He proceeded to ask
about the original endorsement of this study?
Chair Winiecki stated the study was completed as a
clarification of the businesses and those services offered
in Arden Hills.
Mr. Erickson stated the study could be used as background
information or as a planning tool to direct businesses in
the area. The City can also develop the area as desired and
direct interested businesses to this area. The Land Use
Plan is just a tool to help plan the area and not as a
master plan to be strictly followed. The City needs to
. officially endorse the study as to the Planning Commission's
goals for the area. Page 36 of the Lexington Study stated a
plan and what the uses are for the area.
Mr. Fritsinger stated the goals of the plan lends itself
more towards a stay with the status quo, rather than a plan
of action,
Mr. Petersen explained a solid plan of attack would be
beneficial before deyelopments are planned for the area, but
street improvements could be planned around a business
proposal.
Mr. Fritsinger asked the commission to consider looking at
the plan for both a short term recommendation and a long
term recommendation. Starting with the Robert's proposal
and continuing from there.
Mr. McGraw stated the curb cut was proposed to make access
to the business easier and the County has approved the curb
cut. He indicated instead of hurting the business by denying
the curb cut, they would be helped more by approving it.
Mr. Petersen stated because Burger King has an access
directly adjacent to the proposed cut, other businesses and
safety issues were being compromised. These were reasons
. why the curb cut was denied preYiously by the Planning
Commission.
Minutes Page 8 02/02/94 .
Barb Piotrowski stated the Lexington Avenue Plan is
obsolete. She suggested writing a letter to Cub and
advertising land in newspapers.
Chair Winiecki asked Councilmember Aplikowski why the
Economic Deyelopment Committee needs a current listing of
the businesses when the City has the Lexington Study to help
them. She went further to request the makeup of the
committee and offered a Planning Commission member to attend
the meetings to assist with background.
Councilmember Aplikowski replied a look needs to be taken at
all of the businesses in Arden Hills to determine what types
of businesses we lack in the community. The committee is
made up of nine members and all meetings are open to input
from members of the Community.
Ms. piotrowski expressed concerns with sharing our future
development plans with Shoreyiew considering the
relationship of the two cities.
Mr. Rye asked if the Economic Deyelopment Committee is
contacting the property owners within the Lexington Area and
if not, it may be a good idea to inyolve them, .
Mr. Fritsinger replied except for Roberts, no other contact
with the property owners has been made to date. If staff
were directed to undertake additional review of this study,
contacts would be made at that time.
Mr. Rye stated the need to bring the businesses together.
Mr. Fritsinger said the Economic Deyelopment Committee could
begin working on so many issues, but the most important is
to establish contacts with the local business so the
committee can begin to address other projects. When those
issues come up the committee will be more directly involved
with the businesses.
Mr. Rye suggested the committee update local businesses on
their procedures and plans.
Chair Winiecki stated if the committee is unsure of
asserting themselyes, the Planning Commission was willing
to help introduce and endorse the Economic Deyelopment
Committee as the group to promote Arden Hills business
development.
Councilmember Aplikowski replied the committee is planning .
to include a brief background in the City newsletter about
the new committee.
. .
Minutes Page 9 02/02/94
.
Chair Winiecki stated she would like to see a Planning
Member on the committee to offer help and the title should
be changed to Community Action Committee. She stated
someone should be hired to produce a brochure, and the
Council offer them a budget to print news releases in the
paper's business section. She asked the Planning Members to
make a consensus to present to Council.
Councilmember Aplikowski said the Council is presently
putting all their efforts in T.C.A.A.P. and will be holding
a series of meetings open to the residents to discuss
T.C.A.A.P's future.
Chair Winiecki asked if any money had been spent on
promoting the T.C.A.A.P. meetings.
Mr. Fritsinger said there is a mailing going out to all
residents informing them of the series of meetings.
Chair Winiecki stated there is a lack of staff to do the
aggressive things they want in regards to development of the
City.
. Councilmember Aplikowski stated the only development areas
being addressed are Round Lake and T.C.A.A.P.
Mr. McGraw stated the whole picture is never looked at. No
one has the time or takes the time. He referred to
Councilmember Probst as having the best idea about
businesses and promoting them. We could use someone like
him who knows these things. Business development should be
done or the City isn't going to keep any benefits.
Chair Winiecki asked if the Planning Commission'S ideas will
be heard at the next meeting.
Mr. Fritsinger replied they probably would be reyiewed in a
future Work Session. Presently, the-City Council and
Robert's Deyelopment are looking for a direct response in
regard to the proposed curb cut. He then asked the
Commission members if they planned to continue to study the
plan or deny it.
Councilmember Aplikowski asked to hear a consensus on the
curb cut issue.
Mr. Fritsinger asked to look at the other options ayailable.
He didn't expect a motion to be made at this meeting but
rather a discussion of the yariety of options and issues.
.
. , .'
Minutes Page 10 02/02/94 .
Mr. Rye asked what was the decision.
Chair Winiecki explained the curb cut served multiple
businesses.
Mr. Erickson recommended to follow the study along Lexington
Avenue and connect with a frontage road there.
Chair Winiecki asked if we want to specifically say a
frontage road.
Mr. Petersen stated deciding on a frontage road may not be
the right decision.
Chair Winiecki said there were no other proposals.
Mr. Rye asked if a business had interest to move into the
area would a year or two be a good guess.
Mr. Fritsinger stated the redeyelopment of this area would
require negotiation and/or the use of eminent domain. The
decision to use condemnation and its legal process could be
short or lengthy depending on the process and commitment to
using it. A redevelopment project of this magnitude would .
probably take several years.
Mr. Fritsinger stated the preYious curb cut was approyed for
a retail deyelopment of 30,000 square feet. This was given
3 years ago and not for the existing 60,000 square foot
building.
Mr. McGraw stated he is looking for a reason to deny it
rather than just say because. Could we not approye the curb
cut with language that with future deyelopment it will be
reviewed.
Chair Winiecki couldn't support this because the curb cut
would only serye one business. Furthermore it would
contribute to more traffic congestion along this area.
Mr. Erickson doesn't want to limit the use but rather he
felt the denial was for specific reasons. He said to
inyestigate options which are in the study and connect
directly those 3 accesses. It seems like a fairly simple
process to him, unless the County or City limits are in the
property lines. It would be similar to the frontage road up
on County Road B and Snelling by pannekoeken.
Mr. Petersen stated he would also haye had a difficult time
voting for the motion. The information should all be .
reyiewed.
,-
Minutes Page 11 02/02/94
.
Mr. Erickson stated the study defines the roads well but
doesn't stated whether the City pays for those roads or the
property owners. The only obstacle seems to be trying to
convince those other businesses. The motion should be based
on the Council's request and the option presented in the
study relative to the traffic plans.
Erickson motioned seconded by McGraw to recommend to
concur with the option in the study and the connecting
road. All voted in favor. (6-0)
Chair Winiecki asked if the commission would like to send a
representative to Council and Mr. McGraw was appointed.
COUNCIL REPORT
Councilmember Aplikowski said Ryder would be back to the
Planning Commission since Council denied their rezoning.
Because the issue was so disruptiye and the lack of due
process, the Council decided to send it back to the Planning
Commission for reyiew of the SUP.
Mr. Rye asked if the Zoning Ordinance was amended with any
. goals as he suggested.
Mr. Fritsinger said the Comprehensive Plan was amended to
low density residential and the Zoning Ordinance was amended
as recommended by staff.
Mr. Rye said we need to be sure to tie the SUP and the
conditions together.
Mr. McGraw read the ordinance (6-17) about emission of
fumes. The wording was already in the ordinance and Ryder
needs to comply and conform with these regulations. He felt
the need to limit the amount of busses, although, if tied to
the original bus limit the City could subject itself to
litigation. The unknown costs are high. If the City cleans
up Ryder and makes them meet codes, the neighbors will be
happy. They want something resolved from the fight they've
started.
Councilmember Aplikowski asked to keep in mind that Ryder
was annexed to Arden Hills, and at that time no proyisions
were made to prohibit their growth. Also, the neighborhood
had grown to encroach onto the bus terminal. The compromise
should be that we don't driye another business out of Arden
Hills.
. Chair Winiecki felt the Planning Commission should attend
the Land Use Planning seminars offered to them.

ARDEN HILLS NEWSLETIER
February 4, 1994
.. ADMINISTRATION-
A. A 1994 review of our computer system, interaction and networking needs will begin
immediately since our three four (4) year old PC's leases are up. Contractor, SCS, Yvonne
Schwartz, can install and ensure cabling, components and employee orientation is completed at
$44/hour to a maximum of 15 hours. She has worked with government services computer needs
and Dorothy has worked with her on previous occasions. It is recommended this alternative be
agreed upon immediately unless the Council indicates otherwise.
B. Upcoming Items at February 17th Worksession: 1) police services options - please advise
administrator of your thoughts regarding options - see memo of January 27th; 2) Council is
requested to add/change the memo regarding Committees as you see fit. Also please add
Committee's goals and priorities for 1994; 3) see note above regarding computer system update;
solicitatiOn/transient merchants/ordinance update from Brian will be forthcoming prior to the
worksession.
C. There have been a few calls asking what's happening with the TCAAP housing facing 35W.
Per Commanders Rep Mike Fix the "McKinney Act" federally mandates review of any unused
housing prior to any reuse, removal, etc., to federal and local needs. This review may take
some time and does not identify the houses for immediate reuse, demolition or sale or any
other immediate use.
. D. The City has been advised that an engineering study for a TCAAP sewer line is being planned
for a connection to Mounds View. It is being checked into. At this time the information
gathered is that 1) the TCAAP collector is and has been located just north of the
Administrative offices; 2) that Mounds View pipes will carry more than Arden Hills' pipes near
Lumber and this piping services the Army offices and Alliant Tech. The Army offices (Mike
Fix and attorney from Illinois) have tentatively agreed through Arden Hills billing for an
agreement of use and the future requirements for Arden Hills hookups.
2. PUBLIC WORKS
A. The question asked at the last Council meeting regarding 7 vs 9 ton road on Amble was
checked. All planned roads are 9 ton. We found only one reference to a 7 ton. Thanks for
bringing this to our attention.
3.COMMUNI'IY PLANNING
A. No phone calls or comments have been received regarding Council's approval of the ordinance
amendment regarding Ryder/Reco.

DATE: February 9, 1994
TO: Dorothy Pe:rsan, City Administrator
FRCM: Brian Fritsinger, Ccmm.mi.ty Developnent Coordinate@
SUBJECI' : Transient Merchants
Attached you will find a draft proposal for arrending Chapter 18,
Peddlers, of Arden Hills City Code. I have tried to incorporate those
issues identified by our legal counsel and those we have discussed.
The key ccnponents of this proposed a.rren.drrent include:
1. Cefinitions - Now include peddler, solicitor and transient
rrerchant.
2. Exerrotions - For selle..-rs of farm and garden products, non-profit
organizations and conmunity events.
. 3. Reaistration - Required for evexyone, application includes
photograph of salesperson and criminal background check. While
l'tr. Miller's memo indicated "that a fee is unreasonable all of our
neighboring cities include a fee. This draft includes a fee, but
I have been told by several other cities that any fee is illegal.
4. Miscellanecus - Three day wait. Administratiye approval. 30 day
ITBXirrum length of duration on permit.
5. Hcurs of OPeration - 9;00 a.m. to 7;00 p.m. No SUndays.
The proposed ordinance changes seyeral items. In the past, the City did
not allow any for-profit soliciting, This ordinance Mluld allow l:oth
for-profit and non-profit, but it Mluld not require a fee for non-
profit, Mr. Miller has indicated that docr-to-docr solicitation can not
be prohibited.
I have also been told by a least tMl other cities the City does haye the
ability to not allow any actiyity. This Mluld need to include l:oth
profit and non-profit. However, I understand this is being or recently
was challenged in court.

City Requlations of Door to Door Sales
Arden Hills residents are under no obligation to talk to anyone who
comes to their home trying to sell a product or solicit funds. The
explanation below of the City ordinance regulating door-to-door
sales (from Chapter 18 of the municipal Code, Peddlers, Solicitors
and Transient Merchants) should help you be a better consumer and
citizen.
-0- All door-to-door salespeople and solicitors must be licensed
or registered by the City. This codes not mean the City
endorses any of the products or services being sold. It means
only that the City is aware that a particular person or
organization is within the City limits.
-0- Permits are required for anyone who talks with residents about
buying a product or donating to a cause. All peddlers or
solicitors are required to carry this permit and you can ask
to see it.
-0- If someone comes to your home selling a product or soliciting
contributions and you find they are not licensed by the City,
call City Hall or the Ramsey County Sheriff, and let them know
that there is an unlicensed seller in your neighborhood.

stlBJECl' : Everest P"-U>^-'s<ll
I rret with representatiyes of Everest Developnent again yesterday to
discuss the Gateway Business District. I left this rreeting feeling very
positiye and for the first tirre in several rronths, believe that serre
progress was made.
At this rreeting, the owner of the ccrnpany, Jeff Nielson, participated in
the discussions for the first time. r am assuming he was also getting
frustrated by the lack of progress in our meetings. The result of this
meeting is that a proposal is being drafted by Everest which shculd be
. presented within the week.
M:Jst of our discussions focused on the change in approach by Everest.
The proposal is expected to outline why Everest has requested a TlDre
aggressive approach in this project. The key is marketing ability. I
agree with their assessment as to the difficulty in marketing property
with no illproverrents. In the carpetitive "'-Drld of developnent, it is
difficult for Arden Hills to corrpete with other cities who haye
illproyerrents ccmpleted fran beth a marketing and timing perspective.
While I do not have the details of the proposal, I can frarre it fran our
discussions.
1. At least t"'-D separate bend issues; one for illprovements and
one for land acquisition.
2. Property will be under control of developer, through options
or contract for deeds, prior to issuance of bends.
3. Guarantees on building construction (I expect a building to
be proposed at the time the inproyement proj ect "'-Duld be
undertaken) .
4. Bond issued on Land Acquisition will be placed in escrow and
released only as parcels are developed.
5. Other controls such as letters of credit.
.
.
.
.
I expect this proposal to include sare very specific financial
projections about the project; i.e.: TIF generated, oost of
irrproverrents, and bond related costs. I have asked that the proposal be
in outline form so when it is presented to the Council, it is easy to
highlight and review.
At this time, I do not anticipate the prq;:osal to be canpleted by
Thursday. Hi::lw=ver, I v.ould like to take this time to discuss with the
Council the terms I have outlined. This v.ould allow us to discuss the
issues in more depth and give the Council a chance to be better prepared
for a formal presentation by Everest.

SCBoJECT : Lexingt:cn/Fax: Business Center Study
In October of 1993, the Planning Ccmnission and City Oouncil reviewed a
request fran Scott Roberts for a curb cut at 3771 North Lexington
Avenue. At its October 25 meeting, the City Oouncil tabled the request
and directed the Planning Ccmnission to investigate options to improve
the access situation in the area of the Roberts Developrent.
I have enclosed a copy of the study originally canpleted by WehrnEn,
Bergly Associates, Inc. in June of 1990. Being that this study was
canpleted prior to my hire at Arden Hills, I thought it may be
appropriate to begin the investigation with a review of this study.
. I understand the study was undertaken for a number of reasons; the
number of requests for rezoning along Lexington Avenue was increasing;
the Target Store developrent =curred across the street; and the study
was an attempt to direct redeveloprent of the older uses in the area to
insure carpatibility with the newer develq:xrent.
It appears the main reason for the study was to plan for the
redeveloprent of this area. While sore minor developrent has =cu=ed
on the study area, no major redeveloprent has taken place or is
proposed; however, traffic and access was addressed on pages 16-19 and
28-31 of the study.
A number of options haye been and were discussed to improve the traffic
circulation and access. These included;
1. Frontage Road
2. Alley
3. Stoplights
4. Medians
As staff indicated at the time of the application, it had met with and
discussed the future plans for Lexington Avenue with Ramsey County. The
County indicated at sore point medians will be installed on Lexington.
Along with the medians, other improvements oonsisting of the list above
. =wd assist in reducing sore of the traffic problems being experienced.
.
I Those options listed al:ove are not all inclusive and the Planning
Ccmnission may want to consider any other ideas they have. the City
Council does not expect an imrediate rec:arrrendation on this issue. OVer
the next several meetings the O:mnission should discuss this issue and
investigate alternatives available.
Sane of the steps may inc1ucJe;
- joint meetings with Shoreview
- ccrrpletion of a formal traffic study
- ~ting property ownership
- joint meetings with Finanoe and Public Works Ccmnittees
- short term needs vs. long term develop:rent plans
If there is any additional information that staff can provide to assist
in these discussions, please let me know.

development standards. On the other hand, the area contains some of the
newer, more highly valued industrial development in the City. For
several years it has been looked at as a potential redevelopment area--
the first in the City--to restore or replace the outdated buildings, to
all evi ate present and potential traffic problems, and generally bring
the area into conformity with contemporary regulations.
Although the County Road E business area on the south edge of the study
area has been termed "Downtown Arden Hills," with its mixture of retail
and service uses, within the last decade the City has reconsidered its
long-standing position of restricting business development to the County
. Road E area and has allowed business zoning and development to occur
along Lexi ngton Avenue in the study area. The target site across
Lexington in Shoreview has further stimulated interest in business
development. The fu 11 impact of the drawing power of Target will not be
seen until it is operational, but already the City is feeling the
pressure for allowing ancillary retail and service uses.
Lexington Avenue has likewise.undergone considerable change in the last
decade, wi th continued northward expansion of the metropolitan area.
Widening to four through-lanes, installing a center left-turn lane, and
signalization of several intersections (and approved signalization of
Red Fox and Grey Fox Roads) have all been in response to rapidly
increasing traffic volumes and turning movements. As traffic volumes
and left turns on to and off of Lexington Avenue continue to increase, a
continuous median (except at signalized intersections) is imminent.
This will further limit access to Lexington Avenue businesses.
Because much of the area was developed according to now outdated
practices (and regulations) , functional and visual problems need
correct i ng. The si gnificant disparity between the old and the nevI
development is obvious and does not require a thorough analysis to
determine that redevelopment would produe a higher valued, aesthetically
more pleasing, and a higher tax producing business area.
All of these factors--age, use, function, appearance, value and
quality--need to be cons i dered in this planning study. Solutions
. need to be multi-faceted in approach. This study will therefore have
severa 1 interrelated purposes.

STUDY PURPOSE
l. To inventory existing characteristics that provide direction toward -
defining planning solutions.
2. To establish objectives for the area's future development, reuse
and redevelopment.
3. To formulate alternative development/redevelopment approaches that
meet the objectives and reflect existing characteristics.
4. To recommend a long-range plan and planning process that will
facilitate necessary and desirable change.
5. To recommend strategies that will encourage timely and economically
sound development and redevelopment.
.
STUDY AREA
l. Location: East central area of Arden Hills, bounded by 1-694 on
the north, Lexington Avenue on the east, County Road E on the south
and Hamline Avenue (State Trunk Highway 51-125) on the west.
2. Primary Study Area: This study will focus on the one-quarter-
square-mile area in the east central portion of the study area,
bounded by Red Fox Road on the north, Lexington Avenue on the east,
Grey Fox Road on the south and the property line lying 300 feet
west of Dunlap Street on the west.
3. Secondary Study Area: The balance of the study area lying north,
south and west of the primary study area will be included in
broader scale planning but will not receive the intense scrutiny .
given to the primary area.

INVENTORY
PURPOSE: e
To identify and document factors and characteristics that will influence
planning decisions. Information was obtained from City and County
records, field inspections, and personal visits with landowners and
occupants. The inventory was proposed for both the primary and
secondary study areas as a resource for use throughout the analysis and
planning process.
EXISTING LAND USE
A generalized pattern of use has developed as follows:
1. Northwest and West Central Areas: Developed mostly in 1980s, with
the more attractive buildings and sites in the study area, is
predominately a mixture of office, light assembly and warehousing
(International Paper); Group Health, Inc., has plan approval on the
north central site. The uses in this area are considered
permanent, long-term uses.
2. Lexington Avenue Frontage: Undergoing conversion to hospitality,
retail and service uses. Two predominately vacant warehouse
structures and a metal fabrication operation fill out this .area.
Recent rezoning on three or four parcels from 1-2 to 8-2 indicates
the City's desire to establish a retail/service district in this
area. .1
3. Grey Fox Road, South to Railroad: Shows a concentration of !
warehousing/distribution uses for all of the area except the
properties fronting on Lexington Avenue. The two westerly !
buildings are relatively new and are considered permanent. .
4. Central Area, Grey Fox to Red Fox Roads: The land use pattern
shows the shift from large warehouse operations to a greater
mixture of uses, with a number of smaller uses in each building.
Most of these uses are not intensive, so the general shortage of
parking has not been a problem. The uses and even the buildings
are considered transitional and subject to change.
5. Area between County Road E and Railroad Tracks: Consists of a
variety of retail, service and hospitality uses. Two or three
warehouse and industrial operations in the north central area do
not have frontage on County Road E and are not physically related !
to the County Road or to the other businesses in this area. Most
of the uses are considered permanent and in good condition.
IMPACT:
The groupings of similar uses is strengthening with the more recent
development, while the older areas are becoming more fragmented and .
diverse. Both of these characteristics are likely a result of the lease !
va"lues. The east central and central areas have smaller uses, more .
vacancies and a broader mixture of uses.

EXISTING ZONING
The predominate zoning district is 1-2, General Industrial, with B-2,
Genera 1 Business, occupying most of the frontage on the two arterials--
Lexi ngton Avenue and County Road E. The latter is well established and
has (together with businesses on the south side of County Road E) been .
often referred to as "Downtown Arden Hill s." The Lexington Avenue
business uses are relatively recent, with the three southerly parcels
being rezoned within the last five or six years.
As the names of the districts indicate, they allow rather "catch-all" or
miscellaneous collections of uses. The .more recent industrial uses have
been in a much more limited range, with more offices, clean assembly and
office/service (like the insurance claim's centers) types of uses. The
business district in the study area is mostly service oriented (includ-
ing the hospitality category) , with very limited retail development.
Even the Shannon Square Shopping Center has only two retail outlets.
IMPACT:
The lists of permitted uses in both zoning districts in this study area
are so broad that some of the uses would be inappropriate if located
adjacent to other permitted uses. This is particularly apparent when
the newer industrial developments are of very high quality uses,
buildings and sites and the nearby older warehouse structures are being
occupied by small, starter businesses that are operating in limited
quarters on 1 imited budgets. A more restricted range of uses in com-
partmentalized zoning districts could help to strengthen the entire area
and offer protection for both extremes of the range of uses. Groupings
of uses with simi lar performance characteristics is the objective of i
,
zoning and it appears that in today's market the present 1-2 and B-2 .
Districts are too broad to effectively promote that objective.

PARCELS/OWNERSHIP
The study area contains: -
- 50 separate parcels
- 30 separate owners (taxpayers)
- 42 separate buildings
- 157.5 acres (not including streets or railroad R.O.W.s)
- 3 unused parcels (16.02 acres)
- 2 parcels used just for parking (2.7 acres)
- 9 parcels (all containing warehouse structures) owned by St. Paul
Companies (35.08 acres)--largest single land ownership.
Table 1 shows all parcels, owners (or taxpayers), property addresses,
parcel identification (P .1.0.) numbers, parcel sizes (in acres), and
land, building and total values.
The parcel numbers shown on the ownership map are keyed to Table 1. The
map also shows owners of multiple parcels or buildings in the study
area.
IMPACT:
The number of parcels and the location of those parcels owned by the St.
Paul Companies, the two parcels owned by Scott Roberts, and the two
properties owned by Arden Hills Properties will be the key to planning
for redevelopment of the cen tra 1 area. This small number of owners i
should lessen the problems of timing and coordination of redevelopment
activities. .

PROPERTY VALUE -
The map on page 13 shows the total value (land and buildings on each
parcel) per square foot of building.
1. The highest valued properties are those with small, high valued
buildings and low floor area ratios.
2. Other high valued properties (over $30) are newer buildings with
moderate F.A.R.s.
3. Low valued properties are those with low (per square foot) valued
buildings (warehouses) or those without buildings.
The property value map shows the total value (building and land) per
square foot of land.
1. Values range from $1.16 to $2.00 per square foot for vacant
parcels, to $23.41 for the Northwoods office building.
2. $11,360,000 in land value.
3. $46,800,300 in building value.
4. $58,160,000 in total value. ~i
5. The f1 oor area ratio (F.A.R.) (building area related to land area
and, usually, parking requirements) significantly affects the ;
square foot value; e.g.:
- Parcel s 10, 14 and 38 have low F.A.R.s and high building
values per square foot but require a lot of parking.
- Parcels 24, 30, 31, 42 and 44 have high F.A.R.s but modest
building value per square foot.
- Parcels containing large warehouse buildings have high F.A.R.s
and low building value per square foot.
- Parcels 39 and 43 have high building values and low F.A.R.s.
IMPACT:
The average value per square foot of land is about $8.50, compared with
an average of over $14.00 on the recent developments by Opus, Everest
and Woodbridge. The City has an interest in maintaining property values
both from the standpoint of tax revenue and protection of the invest-
ments of the higher valued developments. A stated Community Goal in the
Comprehensive Plan is: "The development of a sound and broad tax
base... to provide revenue for adequate public facilities and services .
without creating undue burdens on individual property owners."

STREET AND PROPERTY ACCESS
l. Access from private property to Lexington Avenue and County Road E
will find increasing difficulty as traffic volumes increase. At
present, only four of such accesses exist onto Lexington Avenue.
2. A number of properties are connected by driveways or share common
parking areas that overlap property lines.
3. Several uses with side-by-side drives onto separate sites will
become problems as tra ffi c increases. Turning movements at the
intersections will frequently require crossing traffic patterns.
County Road E has two of these situations.
IMPACT:
When a median is installed on Lexington Avenue, left turns in to and out
of private driveways will be eliminated. Thi s will cause hardshi p to
the affected businesses and alternative solutions for access must be
found. The practice of interconnections between private properties
should be expanded--especially along the County Road E and Lexington i
Avenue frontages. (The North Park development uses this concept with ,
,
three structures on one property having shared and connected parking .
lots. )

STREETS AND TRAFFIC CONTROLS
The Comprehensive Plan classifies the streets and highways in and around
the study area as follows:
l. I-694: Principal arterial
2. Hamline/State Trunk Highway 51-125: Major arterial
3. Lexington and County Road E: Minor arterial
4. Grey Fox, Red Fox, Dunlap and Hamline Frontage Roads: Coll ectors
Traffic controls are as follows:
l. All street intersections with Lexington Avenue and County Road E e
either are signalized now or will be this year, except the east leg
of Connelly Street.
2. Stop signs at all other street intersections.
3. Left-turn lane (both directions) for entire length of Lexington
Avenue and County Road E.
4. Northwoods Drive is intended to extend to the west and south to Red
Fox Road--as proposed in Preliminary Plat.
5. Traffic volumes, both current and projected, are shown for the
primary street and highway systems.
IMPACT:
The area has excellent access from the metropolitan highway system and
from the more local system of arterials. The collector street pattern
is straight-forward and provides generally excellent access to private
properties. Direct access from private properties to Lexington Avenue
will present increasing problems with increasing traffic. Ramsey County
feels it can handle all the traffic we can generate within the area by
making capacity improvements to Lexington Avenue. The County's concern i
is for limiting ac ces s to private properties and therefore limiting
turning movements and conflict points. .

ELECTRICAL AND RAIL SERVICE
l. Overhead electrical service has not been used in any of the e
recently developed properti es (see shaded areas) and will not be
used on the few remaining vacant sites. i
,
I
2. Overhead electrical service was used exclusively on the older sites
in the area. I
!
3. Rail service has been removed from several warehouse facilities in
the area and very 1i ke1y will be used very rarely as the older
sites are redeveloped. The International Paper operation and the
Olympia Brewing distributor are the only two recently built sites
that use rail service.
IMPACT:
As the area is upgraded with high quality buildings and sites, overhead
electrical service becomes more noticeable and inappropriate. The wi res
and poles are unattractive and add to the cluttered "industrial"
appearance of a past era. Electrical service lines along Red Fox and
Grey Fox Roads could be placed underground and would make the two
interior access and circulation streets more attractive.
Rail access is available to four or five sites in the study area and ~
should rema i n available to those sites now using it. The through-rail
route and spur lines are located on rear property lines, with only one .
crossing of a public street.

ANALYSIS
PURPOSE:
To assemble the critical impacts of the preceding Inventory stage and to
identify related impacts in a form that will provide direction for the
subsequent plan formulation.
1. Visual and Functional Problems:
- Sites not complying with ordinance requirements for landscape
area (limited green space on graphic) and parking setbacks are
i dentifi ed.
- Visual problems include cluttered yard areas, roof top- or
ground-mounted dish antennae, overhead garage doors facing
streets, outdoor storage and overhead electrical service.
- Access problems identify locations of both current and poten-
tial problems created by the median on Lexington Avenue and
two adjacent driveways on County Road E.
- Northwoods Drive is a dead end street as constructed. The I
prel iminary plat shows the street extending to the west and .
south to tie back into Red Fox Road.

DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
l. Five sites, ranging from 1.35 acres to 8.04 acres, are vacant and
immediately available for development.
2. Fourteen sites, ranging from 0.5 acres to 8.1 acres, are defined as
available for reuse or redevelopment.
- The two sites south of Grey Fox Road total 13.38 acres.
- St. Paul Metalcraft site is 2.5 acres.
- The four sites east of Dunlap total 11.04 acres.
- The four sites west of Dunlap total 8.53 acres.
- All the sites east and west of Dunlap, including Dunlap Street
if vacated, total 22.64 acres.
3. The sites south of the railroad track have buildings and the west \
two are currently in use; however, the uses are considered to be
potential reuse or redevelopment sites. .

TRAFFIC CIRCULATION PLAN ~
1. Schematic Circulation:
_ Provides alternative traffic route for businesses fronting on
Lexington Avenue. When a median on Lexington is constructed,
northbound vehicles will not be able to make left turns in to
or out of the businesses. Schematic plan would allow traffic
to use the signalized intersections at either Red Fox or Grey
Fox Roads. The new access street to the rear of the Lexington
fronting parcels would bring traffic to and from Red Fox and
Grey Fox Roads.
_ Inter-connections between properties would allow traffic to
circulate between the businesses without disrupting Lexington
Avenue traffic.
_ Shannon Square drives and parking would be connected with the
old Gould building drives and parking, again gaining access to
the signalized Grey Fox/Lexington intersection and allowing
circulation between the businesses without traveling on
Lexington.
_ The plan will work whether or not the area to the west is
redeveloped, and could be a temporary or permanent solution
until further development decisions are made. ~

2. Circulation Plan:
- This plan assumes that Lexington Avenue traffic will increase
to the point where northbound left turns in to or out of the
study area will be eliminated either by a median in Lexington .
or by the sheer difficulty in making left turns.
0 A new "service road" is proposed between Red Fox and Grey
Fox Roads midway between Lexington and Dunlap (along the
existing north/south property line).
0 Southbound right turns in and out would sti 11 be ,
permitted from Lexington Avenue businesses. I
0 I nteri or connections between properties would be needed
as shown on the "Schematic Circulation" diagram.
0 The St. Paul Metalcraft building is constructed close to
the existing drive at the west end of the building and
would constrict (not prohibit) circulation on the
proposed service road.
- Northwoods Drive is extended to the west and south to complete
the loop pattern. This alignment was proposed on the pre-
liminary plat approved by the City.
- A pedestrian walk system is proposed along all three east/west
streets and along Lexington Avenue and Hamline Avenue.
Besides providing pedestrian access throughout the area, it
provides a two-mile pedestrian exercise loop for local
employees. .

LAND USE PLAN -
The Inventory and Analysis sections of this report indicate that many of
the properties in the primary study area are subject to change via reuse
or redevelopment.
l. Reuse wi 11 continue to occur as occupants' needs change and as ,
relative property val u es change. Under the current zoning, any
permitted use can occupy any of the existing buildings and, except
for satisfying the parking and sign requirements, the uses can
change without action by the City. If new buildings are proposed,
permitted uses need site plan approval but the uses are
"pre-approved."
2. Redevelopment of presently developed parcels can occur in two ways:
on a parcel-by-parcel basis, responding to immediate market
conditions; or on a larger multi-parcel basis that considers the
longer-term benefi ts rather than the short-term return. If the
demand for sites becomes intense (e,g., in response to the Target
development), property values (and rent or lease prices) may cause
some current occupants to. relocate. At the same time, this
increased value could encourage razing of some existing buildings
to allow new buildings to be developed that would yield a greater
return to the owner. .
The Land Use Plan shows expansion and preservation of the pattern that
has been emerging over the past several years.
l. Recent development of the north and west central areas has
established the pattern shown. With only two or three parcels
remaining to be developed in these areas, a drastic change is not
expected.
2. Development along County Road E has been filling in over the last
couple decades and has established an expanding retail/service area
that is likely to remain for decades to come.
Regardless of demand, property values, and action by the City, the above
areas are not likely to change in their established primary uses.
The Land Use Plan shows the central areas redeveloped as a significant
retai 1 center. containing over 20 acres (with Dunlap Street vacated).
Multi ple ownership, recent construction and some viable businesses in
the area fronting on Lexington between Grey Fox and Red Fox will make it
difficult to incorporate that strip in the 1 a rger retail center
development. Red Fox and Grey Fox, with their signalized intersections
at Lexington, will provide good access to the site. However, a direct,
central access to Lexington may also be desirable. It would be aligned
with the south access to Target. Coordination with the proposed Roberts
Shopping Center would be necessary, but the access could be a valuable .
asset for both the larger and smaller centers.

FllCM: Dorothy A. Person, City lldministxator
DATE : February 17, 1994
SUBJECT: updates
I. Park & Recreation - As a clarification, the grant referred to in the
Administrator comments of February 11, is in the extreme preli1ninary
application stage. Cindy has completed a request fonn to initiate the
review process for a 1995 OUtdoor Recreation Grant. This federal
program provides matching grants to cities, counties, townships and
recognized In:iian Tribal Governments. 'Ihe grant is n<:M under the
jutiOOiction of the DNR.
The request was sul:mitted for the possible redevelopment of Perry Park.
The Park & Recreation Canunittee has discussed redevelopment of Perry
Park for 1995. The preliminary estimate to redevelop is $377,000,
although there is a suggestion that this may be inflated.
. The grant could potentially fund up to 50% of the project cost. The
remaining 50% or more would be matched by the City. It would came from
the Park Fund.
cin:1y has received a call from the Grant Manager requesting to meet with
her. The amount of grant money available is not known at this t:i1ne. We
have been told that the Perry Park project will receiye further
consideration.
2. Sheriff's Department - 'Ihe Contract cities group has been reviewing the
possibility of funding a speed monitoring awareness radar trailer (see
attached) . This unit gives electronic feedback to a driyer of the speed
at the t:i1ne of the radar. It is not used as a speed trap, but is a
monitoring deyice. It can also be used as a traffic counter. The
Contract cities would share in its use on a rotating basis, scheduled by
the Sheriff's Department.
The cost to Arden Hills would be $1,800. The funds to be used would be
the proceeds from the sale of squad cars in 1993 ($5,100 to Arden
Hills) . The Council will be asked to consider this and pass a
resolution at one of it's upcoming meetings if you agree. If you have
questions or if you disagree with this purchase and use, please let me
know.

recommendations would then to the Council for consideration. Seeing the
Council is in the process of reviewing improvemeilts to Perry Park, it would be
very helpful in their discussions.
