Introductions/Roll Call A roll call for members was conducted. 1B. Joint Park and Recreation Staff from Arden Hills and Mounds View gave an overview of programs and options that the cities are currently collaborating on and opportunities for collaboration in the future. Mounds View School District Community Education Director Brown noted the programming discussed aligns well with the school district programming, and he believed they are not duplicating efforts or having competing programming. JOINT CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 17, 2024 2 Arden Hills Recreation Supervisor Johnson noted about half of the programs offered by Arden Hills are collaborative. Mounds View Superintendent Thomas noted additional collaboration with recreation programming is happening this fall. The two Councils thanked the Recreation Staff for their presentation and encouraged future collaboration. 1C. Development Project Shawn and James O'Keefe of the Minnesota Tournament and Wellness Center gave an overview of a tournament facility they are pursuing in the northern suburbs, they stated the area it would primarily serve is north of Saint Paul and east of Minneapolis. They noted it is a private, for -profit entity that would be running the project. They noted the initial capital outlay for the project is $100 million, which they are seeking a fifty-fifty split between private and public funding. They estimated the economic impact to the area would be over $23 million annually. Mounds View City Administrator Zikmund noted they have been building a coalition of partners who are interested in the project, and the next step is site selection and discussed the possibility of the project going on Rice Creek Commons. James O'Keefe noted they need a minimum of twenty acres but could utilize up to forty acres. Community Education Director Brown discussed the challenges regarding limited field space at the schools and being dependent on good weather and how this facility would benefit the school district. Mounds View City Administrator Zikmund discussed next steps including setting up a future meeting with Alatus for collaboration on Rice Creek Commons. James O'Keefe highlighted the opportunities for ongoing use of the facility by the surrounding communities for reasonable fees due to the initial public investment in the project. 1D. Organized Trash Collection City of Arden Hills Councilmember Monson and Mayor Grant noted the Arden Hills Council has discussed organized collection and is interested in learning more and hearing about Mounds View's experience. Mounds View Mayor Lindstrom gave an overview of Mounds View's experience with the organized collection process. In his opinion, the core issue with organized collection is the discrepancy in rates between customers and the fees and surcharges that are added to customers' bills. The other members of the Mounds View City Council discussed organized collection and the challenges they have been facing as they navigate the process. JOINT CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 17, 2024 ADJOURN Mayor Lindstrom adjourned the Joint Council Work Session at 7:49 p.m. Julie Hanson City Clerk David Grant Mayor �-`iVEN HILLS Approved: July 22, 2024 CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION JUNE 24, 2024 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 Special City Council Work Session at 5:00 p.m. Present: Mayor David Grant; Councilmembers Tom Fabel, Brenda Holden (arrived at 5:10 p.m.), Tena Monson and Emily Rousseau Absent: None Also present: City Administrator Dave Perrault; Public Works Director/City Engineer David Swearingen; Community Development Director Jessica Jagoe; Finance Director Joua Yang; and Assistant to the City Administrator/City Clerk Julie Hanson 1. PUBLIC INQUIRIES/INFORMATIONAL None. 2. RESPONSE TO PUBLIC INQUIRIES None. 3. AGENDA ITEMS A. Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance Review Kick -Off Discussion Rita Trapp, HKGi, provided the Council with preliminary information on the zoning and subdivision ordinance code update process. She introduced herself, her firm along with her team, and explained she looks forward to working with the City on this project. Jason Zimmerman, HKGi, described HKGi's approach for this project noting the different phases, provided observations from the City's current code and reviewed the online survey comments he received from the Council regarding the City's zoning and subdivision ordinance. He discussed how community engagement would be held with the public and reviewed the ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 24, 2024 2 project timeline. He noted several joint meetings would be scheduled with the Planning Commission to work through the draft ordinance. Mayor Grant discussed how the Planning Commission helps the City Council carry out City Code. He recommended the Phase 2 joint meeting with the Planning Commission be held between City Council and HKGi for efficiency purposes. Mr. Zimmerman explained the joint meeting in Phase 2 helps to provide the Planning Commission with direction from the City Council. Councilmember Rousseau stated she supported the proposed project timeline and joint meetings. She asked if HKGi has connected with staff and did the City have resources to meet the proposed project timeline. Community Development Director Jagoe indicated she supported the proposed project timeline. Councilmember Holden questioned what kind of technical training the Planning Commission was receiving. Community Development Director Jagoe explained the Planning Commission receives orientation training which addresses land uses, zoning code, CUP's, and statutory requirements. She indicated many have attended League of Minnesota Cities webinars as well. Councilmember Holden stated she was concerned with the fact the training was not inclusive but rather was very restrictive given the fact members were appointed by the new Council. She expressed concern with the fact the Planning Commission was supposed to provide technical support to the Council and this may not be fully understood because many of the members were quite new. Mr. Zimmerman reported this could be further addressed at the first joint meeting with the Planning Commission. Ms. Trapp discussed how she would bring technical information to the City Council, Planning Commission and staff for consideration to ensure everyone has the same information. Councilmember Monson noted the first meeting with the Planning Commission would be very important because this would address the subdivision rewrite. She explained the vision from the Council for the Planning Commission would be really important. She stated she was very comfortable with the project plan and timeline as laid out by HKGi. She was of the opinion the Planning Commissioners were very skilled and experienced. She trusted the Planning Commission to be able to work through the technical pieces with City staff and HKGi. Councilmember Fabel asked if Constitutional or legal issues ever arose while rewriting portions of code and if this were to occur, how would it be addressed. Mr. Zimmerman indicated they watch for certain red flags, especially with respect to sign code and shoreland ordinances. He stated he would be watching these sections to ensure the language was current. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 24, 2024 Councilmember Fabel questioned if HKGi had an attorney on staff to review the code revisions. Ms. Trapp reported all legal questions would be referred to the Arden Hills city attorney. She did not anticipate she would need a great deal of legal counsel for this code rewrite. Mayor Grant discussed how the code rewrite would address inconsistencies as well as the duplication of information. He anticipated that when the new code was complete, a clean, easy and readable document would be created. He noted this document would not be a complete rewrite. Ms. Trapp stated from her standpoint a rewrite isn't throwing out the code, but rather she would read through current code to ensure it was accurate to State Statute and Council policies, while also remaining clear to outside readers. She indicated every portion of code would be read through and clarified but would not be completely rewritten from scratch. Mayor Grant appreciated the fact that the new code language would be easy to read for outside readers and developers. Councilmember Holden indicated the current code has conflicts. She questioned if the new code would ensure conflicts do not occur. Mr. Zimmerman reported any future amendments have to be researched, but he anticipated future amendments would have logical places to go which would assist with proper organization while minimizing the chances for conflicts. Councilmember Rousseau stated she could support a total rewrite of certain portions of code, if necessary. Councilmember Monson inquired how short-term rentals and ADU's would be included in this proj ect. Ms. Trapp hoped to understand these topics at the first meeting with the Council and Planning Commission. She indicated the code would be structured in such a manner that if these items needed to be addressed or added later, there would be a place within code. Councilmember Holden stated the City had no rental policy at all. She explained she would like to address this matter, along with short term rentals. Further discussion ensued regarding the code revision process. Mayor Grant asked if there would be a reference to State Statute within the code. Ms. Trapp reported this would occur, but noted in some instances it was valuable to have State Statute spelled out within the code for readers. Mr. Zimmerman reviewed the next steps for this project which included a tour of the city, code review and analysis, project webpage, public input and a joint meeting this fall. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 24, 2024 4 Councilmember Monson looked forward to closing the gap on how people function and operate today, versus when the code was originally drafted. Mr. Zimmerman indicated the code would be modernized through this process. Councilmember Holden asked how home occupations would be addressed within the code. Ms. Trapp reported she would work to strike a balance within the code noting every city had a different level of staffing and care when it comes to this issue. She thanked the Council for all of their feedback and noted she looked forward to meeting with the Council again this fall. B. Old Highway 10 Trail Improvements — Design Review and Funding Discussion Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated in October of 2022, a feasibility study update was completed from a previous 2008 version of the proposed project corridor. On June 12, 2023, City Council approved Professional Services with Engineering Consultant, SRF, to complete a "Shovel -Ready" design to pursue potential future funding opportunities. On November 27, 2023, City Council requested a proposal from SRF to apply for potential grant programs related to the proposed Old Highway 10 Trial Improvement project, which included the MnDOT SRTS program and Regional Solicitation SRTS program. SRF has produced plans considered 95%. He noted Mike McGarvey from SRF was in attendance to discuss these plans. Mike McGarvey, SRF, discussed the Highway 10 trail improvements with the Council. He noted he met with the Council last November noting he was 60% complete with plans. He commented on the project noting it would include an eight to ten foot wide bituminous trail along the west/south side of Old Highway 10. In addition, there would be approximately 500' of boardwalk and railing, necessary storm sewer improvements, and retaining walls to minimize impact to wetlands, minor adjustments to grading and hard surface due to impacted boulevard space. He reviewed the project timeline as well as the cost estimates. He commented further on the grant funding opportunities that were pursued. He explained the City did not receive MNDOT SRTS funding. He noted he was still waiting to hear back on the Regional Solicitation SRTS program, but noted funding was unlikely. He reviewed potential next steps and other funding sources that could be pursued by the City for this trail improvement project and asked how the Council wanted to proceed. Councilmember Monson supported the City speaking with the Mounds View High School in order to pursue an SRTS plan. She suggested other grant opportunities also be considered. She commented on how a Parks Master Plan would benefit the City in pursuing grants for park improvements. She supported the Council further discussing a Parks Master Plan at a future worksession meeting. Mayor Grant asked if this trail was on the current Parks Master Plan from 2000. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated there was a line on a piece of paper saying this trail was proposed. Councilmember Holden indicated this trail may have been included on the 2010 Parks Master Plan. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 24, 2024 5 Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained he was uncertain what Councilmember Holden and Mayor Grant were referring to. Councilmember Monson stated whatever the City has in place now, may be fine, but noted an update may be required to address the vision for the community going forward. Councilmember Fabel questioned how ongoing investment relates to the prospect of Johanna Boulevard trail or Snelling Boulevard trail. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained the City has taken the lead on the Old Highway 10 project and the County has taken the lead on the Johanna Boulevard trail. He indicated these were competing projects that had pursued separate grant opportunities. Mayor Grant stated there was some value in going through the current Parks Master Plan, especially to provide updates to the trail connections. He understood there were two costly trail sections that needed to be completed. Councilmember Rousseau indicated she supported the City Council completing a Parks Master Plan. She questioned why the Mounds View High School has not created an SRTS plan in the past. Mr. McGarvey stated he was uncertain why this had not been completed by the school. He reported the trail along Lake Valentine Road was successful without a SRTS plan. Councilmember Rousseau explained she would be interested in sharing the results from the SRTS grant funding with the school along with discussing how important support from the school district would be to the City. Councilmember Holden stated the City may be asking for too much right now. She did not believe the City would receive any funding because all of the asks did not look appropriate. She commented on how the upcoming election may impact future funding requests. She questioned how many residents south of I-694 were walking to the high school. Mr. McGarvey indicated he did not have the numbers in front of him, but noted the project scored well relative to the broader scope of the project and that there would be a connection to Arden Manor. Councilmember Holden asked how much of this roadway was considered City versus County. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported all of the roadway was owned by the County. Mayor Grant commented in the more detailed write up, the County's contribution for this project was to be $500,000, but the County was not able to make this commitment. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained the County's policy states they will match 50% of the overall costs for a project, however, at this time, they did not have funding to meet their policy, which meant the County would be providing $550,000 for this project. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 24, 2024 6 Mayor Grant indicated there was discussion within the writeup about MSA funding. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported the City could advance up to five years in MSA funding. Mayor Grant stated this would give the City $1.5 million, but noted the City was already in the hole. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen indicated this was the last year the City would not be receiving funding. He stated next year the City would resume receiving MSA funding. City Administrator Perrault commented he believed the City's MSA funding was spoken for, for years into the future. He noted the City would be eligible to begin receiving MSA again in 2025. Mayor Grant indicated he would like more clarification regarding the City's MSA funding. Councilmember Fabel asked what the budgetary impact would be of a complete streets policy. Mr. McGarvey explained a complete streets policy would have the City enacting a policy that addresses how the City develops its roadway networks and has all modes of transportation being considered. He indicated this policy would strengthen the City's commitment to all modes of transportation. Mayor Grant supported the City working with the school district in order to improve the City's application for funding. Councilmember Holden asked if the City's best funding option was the SRTS. Mr. McGarvey stated this would be the City's next funding opportunity, along with the Safe Routes for All program. Councilmember Holden supported the City pursuing SRTS funding again this fall and recommended the City update its trail map. She suggested the City consider pursuing a complete streets policy as well as this would give the City a few more points for its project. City Administrator Perrault clarified that the City had a parks maintenance plan in place and not a Parks Master Plan. Mayor Grant reported a Parks Master Plan was completed in 2000 noting he borrowed a copy of this document from Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen. He noted this document states it will take 20 years to complete this plan. Councilmember Monson discussed how she would support spending $50,000 on a Parks Master Plan as this would assist the City with receiving future grant funding for projects and not just this one. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 24, 2024 7 C. Recap of Joint Meeting with Mounds View City Council City Administrator Perrault stated on June 17th, the City Council met with the Mounds View City Council for a joint worksession, the agenda covered joint recreation activities, a tournament facility, and single -hauler trash and recycling. Staff provided a brief summary of the following items and asked for any additional follow-up from Council. Councilmember Fabel commented on the large sports facility Mounds View was considering and how they were looking for space in Arden Hills. He noted TCAAP may be a possibility for this space. Councilmember Holden asked if this project would be taxable. City Administrator Perrault explained this project would be owned privately which meant it would be taxable. Councilmember Holden discussed how the proposed sports facility would be a draw if built within TCAAP. Councilmember Monson stated she was interested in learning more about the sports facility. She understood Mounds View wanted public/private funding for this venture, but she believed the school district may be interested in participating in funding this project. She supported the JDA exploring this project further. Councilmember Holden indicated Arden Hills was missing a facility to hold recreational programming. Mayor Grant explained there was a lot of positives for the recreational facility. He noted this facility would bring in tourism and would be a positive for the Rice Creek Commons development. He believed the City of Arden Hills, the school district and Mounds View would all benefit from this project. He commented further on the benefits of having a regional sports facility in Arden Hills. He believed the State would be a partner for a project like this. He indicated his concern was with how many additional trips would be generated by this facility. City Administrator Perrault stated the next step would be to bring the partners in to provide the Council with a preliminary presentation. Councilmember Rousseau suggested this presentation be made after the partners speak with Bob Lux. She indicated she thought the sports facility was an interesting idea and she looked forward to learning more. The City Council recessed the special worksession until after the regular City Council meeting at 6:53 p.m. The City Council reconvened the special worksession at 8:45 p.m. Mayor Grant provided a short recap of the discussion held prior to the regular City Council meeting, stating there was positive general consensus regarding a sports facility. He noted that a ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 24, 2024 8 sports facility offers advantages that Costco would not offer and if Alatus wants vibrancy in the downtown area, this would provide that though it comes with a price tag. A discussion ensued about what a potential sports facility could include and potential next steps. A discussion ensued regarding potential impacts on zoning, including the JDA's role in the decision making process for a potential sports facility. Council consensus was to direct staff to continue collecting information and to invite the partners that are proposing the sports facility to present to the City Council at a future worksession. Staff was directed to add this to the list of potential future topics. City Administrator Perrault explained possible next steps in moving forward with a potential single hauler for the city. He suggested waiting until the recycling RFP process that is being facilitated by the technical advisor, Foth, is complete before making a decision regarding a single trash hauler. He explained there will be a timing component to implementing a single trash hauler along with a recycling hauler. He reiterated he would prefer to wait to address the single trash hauler issue until a new recycling contract is put in place. Councilmember Holden asked about the planning process and if public engagement would be included. City Administrator Perrault suggested waiting for Foth to provide assistance with the process and noted that public participation could be a component should Council want to include such. Discussion ensued about the options of a referendum or survey regarding a single hauler in order to gauge public interest, road conditions and the effects of multiple haulers versus a single hauler, and Mounds View's experience with the process. Discussion ensued regarding the varying fees that garbage carriers charge and that the State has mandated the process cities must follow during consideration of implementing a single hauler. Councilmember Holden suggested the Council have an internal process figured out prior to engaging the public with a survey. Councilmember Monson asked about timing and if the Council would be in favor of revisiting this topic following completion of the recycling RFP, such as in January. Council briefly discussed the fact that the TCAAP redevelopment will be a single hauler. City Administrator Perrault stated that if Council agreed, staff could bring the process back for discussion following completion of the recycling RFP, so January at the latest, and Council could determine at that time if it wants to pursue a single hauler in 2025 or 2026. Councilmember Holden stated that could work if the recycling contract is for 3 years but not if it is for 5 years. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 24, 2024 9 Councilmember Rousseau agreed that waiting to discuss in January was a good plan, and she noted several other tasks that are on the horizon for discussion such as strategic goals, the Master Parks Plan, Zoning ordinance revisions and the budget.

City Administrator Perrault noted the recycling RFP includes scenarios for two alternate bids, one would include hosting a Clean Up Day similar to what the City used to do but would be run by the carrier and a second to include a curbside bulk pickup service free to residents on a certain date to be decided upon by the Council, though he cautioned this second option could be expensive for the City. A short discussion ensued regarding these two options. Councilmember Monson noted she had asked to discuss the chicken ordinance and fire fighter recognition. Councilmember Rousseau stated it was discussed having Representative Moller or Senator Marty present to speak at a Council meeting. ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — JUNE 24, 2024 10 Councilmember Holden indicated the City has always traditionally invited local representatives to attend a Council meeting, noting this is an election year. Council consensus was to invite the elected officials to speak at a future Council meeting prior to the November election. City Administrator Perrault asked to clarify Council direction regarding if the intent was for local public safety representatives to be invited to attend a work session, which was more informal and traditionally when they would speak, and the elected officials would be invited to attend a regular City Council meeting to provide a formal public presentation. He noted that both meetings are being televised. Councilmember Rousseau stated she would prefer all representatives provide a presentation at a regular Council meeting. The Council concurred with having a formal presentation at a regular meeting. Discussion ensued about the desired topics from the Lake Johanna Fire Department (LJFD) and Ramsey County Sheriff's Office (RCSO). Councilmember Holden requested City Administrator Perrault provide the contracts with LJFD and RCSO to the City Council. A short discussion ensued regarding bonding and potential options the City could pursue. Council agreed to add legislative priorities to the August work session. Discussion ensued regarding leaving the topics as listed on the July 81h work session on that agenda and code of conduct and Arden Manor hardcourt were added as well. 4.

The energy committee is also in the midst of planning a meeting to with the energy consultant to hear the status of their project. Lastly, the next JDA meeting is tentatively scheduled for July 23rd. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 2 3. PUBLIC INQUIRIES/INFORMATIONAL Mark Kelliher, 3712 Chatham Court, stated on his last visit to the City Council meeting he mentioned the fact that Councilmember Fabel sent him an email threatening to pursue action against him if he didn't stop asking questions that annoyed him. He explained he was at this meeting to again ask questions. He commented on actions that should have been taken by Councilmember Rousseau but weren't. He reported as the PTRC liaison, Councilmember Rousseau was overseeing the visit by the goats to Chatham trails to mitigate buckthorn growth. He indicated this project was authorized by Council last year and at that time, the Council also authorized the expense of sowing grass seed during the goats' second visit. He commented the rationale was that the goats would trample in the grass seed as they ate and the grasses would mitigate buckthorn resurgence. He reported sowing grass seed was recommended by Great River Greening and the PTRC. He questioned why Councilmember Rousseau did not follow Council directive and plant the grass seed now that the goats are in the City. He noted he posed this question to Councilmember Rousseau in an email and has not received a response. He understood Councilmember Rousseau does not respond to matters when the answer will embarrass her. Therefore, he was unlikely to get Councilmember Rousseau to respond to him directly. Instead, he is calling on Councilmembers Holden, Monson and Mayor Grant to seek a response from Councilmember Rousseau on why she did not follow through with the agreed upon plan. Without the benefit of the grass seed, the $5,000 to $6,000 that was spent for the goats will have no long- term benefits and was money wasted. He understood $5,000 to $6,000 was not a lot of money and for this reason he was not requesting Councilmember Fabel be asked for a response as Councilmember Fabel has demonstrated that spending City funding prudently was not one of his concerns. He indicated there could have been sloppy execution on Councilmember Rousseau's part, but he feared she secretly wanted the project to fail. John Kysylyezyn, Executive Director for Garbage Haulers for Citizen Choice, 30831 Victoria Street, provided the Council with a handout. He explained Mounds View Mayor Zach Lindstrom likes to slander him every month at meetings and on social media posts. He reported as a former elected official and now as a lobbyist, he has met a lot of government officials. He was of the opinion the Mounds View City Council was one of the most ignorant and unprofessional groups he has ever met. He indicated it was a fact Mayor Lindstrom was too lazy to attend a single negotiation session with the trash haulers. He stated it was also a fact Mayor Lindstrom approached two competitive haulers and told them a joint bid would be looked upon favorably by the city, which smacks of government corruption. He indicated the Council now has a copy of Mayor Lindstrom's fake claim that he threatened to bribe a City Council candidate. He reported this made absolutely no sense, because 83% of Mounds View voters stripped the Council of their power to institute organized trash collection. He commented on the interactions he had with newly elected Councilmember Julie Clark and noted the haulers committee could not donate to any council committee. He stated in closing, he was available to discuss government managed trash collection with the Council. Kris Lillemo, 5132 Long Lake Road in Mounds View, explained he attended the joint worksession that was held between the Arden Hills and Mounds View City Council's. He stated he was a huge fan of Mayor Zach Lindstrom. He indicated the residents of Mounds View do not want organized trash collection and have shown this repeatedly. He explained residents want the freedom to choose their own hauler. He cautioned the Arden Hills City Council from moving in this direction because there are residents that will be on both sides of this issue. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 4. RESPONSE TO PUBLIC INQUIRIES None. 5. PUBLIC PRESENTATIONS None. 6. STAFF COMMENTS A. Transportation Update Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported there was congestion related to the 2024 PMP project in isolated areas where concrete work was being completed. He encouraged residents traveling through the area to follow the warning signage as posted. Councilmember Holden questioned when the Lindey's parking lot would be completed. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated he did not have a schedule for this project, but he anticipated this work would be completed after the roundabout was finished. Councilmember Monson asked what the estimate was for the parking lot. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained he was working with the County on the bid because he saw several discrepancies. He was pleased to report the project came in under budget. B. Night to Unite Update Assistant to the City Administrator/City Clerk Hanson stated Night to Unite would be held on Tuesday, August 6. Individuals interested in hosting a Night to Unite event are encouraged to register their gathering by Friday, July 12 in order to ensure a deputy visit. Events may also be visited by fire department personnel as well as City and other community officials. The City has information about Night to Unite, including the link for online registration, available on the City's main webpage under News and Announcements. Registration can be completed online. Residents can find more information about Night to Unite in general on the Ramsey County Sheriff's Office webpage or by visiting ramseycounty.us and typing night to unite in the search field. Residents wishing to donate school supplies can bring items to their local neighborhood event or drop the items off at the Ramsey County Sheriff's Patrol Station located at 1411 Paul Kirkwold Drive between 8 am and 4:30 pm Monday, August 5 through Friday, August 9.

A list of neighborhoods participating in Night to Unite will be sent to the City Council when it becomes available to staff and the list will also be published on the City's website. C. Elections Update Assistant to the City Administrator/City Clerk Hanson reported voting absentee ballot for the August 13 primary election begins on Friday, June 28. She explained residents can contact Ramsey County's election office to request an absentee ballot. She stated beginning Friday, July ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 2 26 ballots can be placed in the voting machine at the Ramsey County Library in Roseville or Shoreview, or at the elections office in St. Paul. She reported residents voting on election day should report to their designated polling place.

Motion To Approve Personnel Policy Amendment — Safety Footwear Reimbursement Councilmember Holden asked if this expense would be part of the employees' salaries. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 5 City Administrator Perrault reported this reimbursement was for employees that were not part of a bargaining unit. He commented further on the delineation between items that were and were not taxable. MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Fabel seconded a motion to Approve Personnel Policy Amendment — Safety Footwear Reimbursement. The motion carried (5-0). B. Motion To Approve Resolution 2024-032 Accepting a Donation From The Arden Hills Foundation Councilmember Monson asked who served on the Arden Hills Foundation. Mayor Grant reported the president of the Arden Hills Foundation was himself. He noted Arlene Mitchell, David Mitchell, Greg Rubenstein and Brian Holmes also serve on the foundation. He explained he volunteered his time on the foundation and noted this group was entirely separate from the City of Arden Hills. Councilmember Monson indicated she wanted appropriate thank you notes sent to those that donated. She thanked each of the individuals who made donations to the Arden Hills Foundation. Mayor Grant reported thank you notes were sent from the Arden Hills Foundation to these individuals. He stated thank you notes would also be sent from the City. Councilmember Holden suggested a picture of the bench and a map to where it is located be included in the thank you notes. MOTION: Councilmember Monson moved and Councilmember Holden seconded a motion to adopt Resolution 2024-032, Accepting a Donation From The Arden Hills Foundation. The motion carried (5-0). 10. PUBLIC HEARINGS A. Quarterly Special Assessments for Delinquent Utilities Finance Director Yang stated water customers whose accounts are 90 days past due were informed that the City intends to certify delinquent charges to Ramsey County to be collected with property taxes. These customers have the right to a hearing in front of the City Council to discuss this matter prior to certification. Mayor Grant asked if the Council supported collecting the special assessments two times a year instead of quarterly. Councilmember Holden indicated the City moved to four times a year because of the housing crisis and the fact that the City was missing out on a lot of utility payments. She suggested staff weigh in on this. Mayor Grant explained he could support keeping the same process in place. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 6 Mayor Grant opened the public hearing at 7:33 p.m. With no one coming forward to speak, Mayor Grant closed the public hearing at 7:34 p.m. B. Planning Case 24-011 Amending Chapter 13, Section 1325.07 Subd. 6.A — Location Of Buildings Housing Farm Animals, Bees Community Development Director Jagoe stated earlier this year, Joe Kimbell, "Applicant," contacted the City to verify if the keeping of bees would be allowed on his property at 3759 New Brighton Road ("Subject Property"). Staff conveyed that, at present, the City Code requires that "Any building in which farm animals are kept shall be located a distance of two hundred (200) feet or more from any lot line. Any open structure in which farm animals are kept shall be a distance of four hundred (400) feet or more from any lot line, except for chicken coops in the R-1, R-2, and R-3 Districts." Farm animals are defined as "Animals traditionally kept or raised on a farm for the purpose of providing food or products for sale or use, such as cattle, horses, goats, sheep, swine, fowl, bees, and animals raised for fur." In review of the Subject Property, city staff determined that the property did not have the lot width required to meet the distance requirements from any lot line for placement of the bee hive(s). Community Development Director Jagoe reported based on that evaluation, the Applicant submitted a land use application for a Zoning Code Amendment to add language to the Zoning Code for residential zoning districts that would exempt the keeping of bees under Section 1325.07, Subd. 6.A — Location of Buildings Housing Farm Animals. The following is the zoning code language proposed by the Applicant for consideration: 1. The number of hives on residential lots is not to exceed: i. 1 acre or larger: 8 ii. 1 acre - 3/4 Acre: 6 iii. 3/4 Acre to 1/2 Acre: 4 iv. 1/2 acre or less: 2 2. The beehive(s) must not be located in the front of a property or a side yard that abuts a street. 3. They may be no closer than twenty-five (25) feet to an occupied building on another lot and/or any public trail or walkway. 4. The hives shall be located at least ten (10) feet from a property line. 5. Any property owner who keeps bees shall provide and maintain a nearby, designated water source. Community Development Director Jagoe explained the Planning Commission reviewed this application at their June 5, 2024 meeting. At that time, they recommended the addition of a sixth condition that would require any property owner who keeps bees to provide notification to adjacent properties. Staff mirrored the language in the draft ordinance similarly to the phrasing for the keeping of chickens. Councilmember Fabel explained he was a fan of bee keeping. He stated he was a strong supporter of this proposal and did not support imposing any other requirements other than those that were recommended by the Planning Commission. Councilmember Holden questioned if the water source was a major issue. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 7 Community Development Director Jagoe stated this was an important need for the bees and should be a responsibility for the bee keeper to ensure the bees have water. Councilmember Holden inquired what would happen if hives were too close to each other. She supported the City advertising that bee keeping was now allowed, once this ordinance was passed, in order to make the public aware and to possibly reduce the use of pesticides in the community. Mayor Grant opened the public hearing at 7:45 p.m. Joe Kimbell, 3759 New Brighton Road, thanked the Council for considering his request. He believed this would be a fantastic endeavor for the community. He explained he was available to answer questions the Council may have regarding bee keeping. He commented on how vital a water source was for bees. He noted hives could be within two feet of each other and noted only eight hives would be allowed on a lot that was over an acre in size. He discussed how beneficial it was to have two hives on one lot due to bee collapse. He encouraged residents that were interested in bee keeping to take an educational course. Mayor Grant closed the public hearing at 7:49 p.m. 11. NEW BUSINESS A. Resolution 2024-031 Adopting And Confirming Quarterly Special Assessments For Delinquent Utilities Finance Director Yang stated delinquent utility amounts are certified to Ramsey County quarterly. A list of utility accounts with a delinquent balance was compiled and notices dated May 17, 2024 were mailed. These customers were informed of their delinquent status and were asked to make payment of the delinquent balance by June 17, 2024. Utility accounts with an unpaid delinquent balance would be certified to Ramsey County to be added to property taxes payable in 2025. MOTION: Councilmember Monson moved and Councilmember Holden seconded a motion to adopt Resolution 2024-031 — Adopting and Confirming Ouarterly Special Assessments for Delinquent Utilities. The motion carried (5- B. Planning Case 24-011 Amending Chapter 13, Section 1325.07 Subd. 6.A. — Location Of Buildings Housing Farm Animals, Bees • Ordinance 2024-006 Amending Chapter 13, Section 1325.07 Subd. 6.A. — Location of Buildings Housing Farm Animals, Bees • Publication of Summary Ordinance 2024-006 Community Development Director Jagoe stated staff has prepared draft ordinance language with new language added in red font for your review. On May 1, 2024, the City received a land use application from Joe Kimbell "Applicant" to add language to the Zoning Code for residential zoning districts that would exempt the keeping of bees under Section 1325.07, Subd. 6.A — Location of Buildings Housing Farm Animals. Staff reviewed the zoning code language as proposed based on the Applicant's request and the recommendation of the Planning Commission. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Fabel seconded a motion to adopt Adoption of Ordinance 2024-006 for Planning Case 24-011 for Zoning Code Amendments to Chapter 13, Section 1325.07 to allow an exception for the keeping of bees/beehives within the R-1, R-2, and R-3 residential districts in City Code Sections 1325.07, Subd. 6.A — Location of Buildings Housing Farm Animals. The motion carried (5- MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Fabel seconded a motion to approve authorization to publish a Summary Ordinance of 24-006 for Planning Case 24-011. The motion carried (5- C. Resolution 2024-036 — Planning Case 24-012 — Site Plan Review for 4061 Lexington Avenue North, Primrose School Community Development Director Jagoe stated the applicant has submitted a land use application for a Site Plan Review, seeking flexibility on the height, sign area, quantity of signs allowed, and location for the Subject Property. The Subject Property has road frontage along County Road F West and Lexington Avenue. The Primrose School of Arden Hills and Shoreview opened in October of 2019 and is part of a national system of accredited private preschools that provide child care and early education. The Applicant is seeking flexibility to install signage on an existing freestanding structure along Lexington Avenue. The existing freestanding structure does not conform with sign standards and requirements for freestanding signs in Sign District 6 due to height, sign area (i.e. sign cabinet), sign quantity and location. The City is asked to consider the request for a sign standard adjustment through the Site Plan Review process. Community Development Director Jagoe explained the Subject Property was redeveloped by Bremer Bank in 2016 as an approximately 18,000 gross square foot, two-story bank and office building. The site also had a teller drive -up lane and drive -up ATM. Bremer Bank was permitted to retain an existing freestanding pole sign located at the corner of Lexington Avenue and County Road F as part of the 2016 redevelopment approval. In 2018, the City Council approved Planning Case 18-010 — a Site Plan Review for the site to be redeveloped by Primrose School, which included extensive renovations to the interior of the building and the replacement of parking stalls and drive lanes to the west and south sides of the building for the installation of a playground area and parking area modifications to the north side of the building. The changes in parking triggered the Site Plan Review. As part of the 2018 Site Plan Review and approval, the Applicant proposed to retain and reface the existing legal nonconforming freestanding sign. A condition of approval was "The existing pylon sign at the intersection of County Road F and Lexington Avenue may remain in place. The applicant shall work with staff to utilize the sign in conformance with the Sign Code." Per Section 1280.01 — Nonconforming Signs of the City's Sign Code, a legal nonconforming sign may be continued through repair, replacement, restoration, maintenance, or improvement. If the use of the nonconforming sign or sign structure is discontinued for a period of one (1) year, the sign or sign structure shall not be reconstructed or used except in conformity with the provisions of the sign code. Community Development Director Jagoe reported the Bremer Bank signage was removed from the freestanding pole sign between 2018 and 2019 and replaced with a blank neutral -toned panel within the two cabinets that matches the color of the structure. Therefore, discontinuing the use of the nonconforming sign and starting the one (1) year period to retain the nonconforming status. The Applicant notes that the structure has been unused and standing for at least 5 years. The ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 9 Applicant has stated that with the pandemic occurring within 5 months of starting operations, infrastructure projects were put on hold and the signage project was not a priority. With the discontinuance of the nonconforming sign, the freestanding structure cannot be used except in conformity with the sign code provisions. The Applicant may either propose a new sign that conforms with the sign code provisions for Sign District 6 (i.e. reduce height and sign area of cabinet) or apply for a sign standard adjustment through the Site Plan Review process for flexibility as a new freestanding sign. The Applicant submitted several applications for new signage at the Subject Property on May 1, 2024. The sign plans including new wall, window, and freestanding signage. The wall signs were found in compliance with the Sign District 6 requirements and permits were issued. Staff identified that an additional step would be needed for the proposed freestanding sign given the discontinued nonconforming use of the former sign. Community Development Director Jagoe reviewed the site data, reviewed the Plan Evaluation and offered the following Findings of Fact. 1. The Subject Property is located in the I-1 Zoning District and is guided as Light Industrial and Office in the Land Use Plan. 2. The Applicant has submitted an application for Site Plan Review to install signage on an existing freestanding structure for the Subject Property. 3. Sign Standard Adjustments to the requirements and standards for the height, number, type, lighting, area, and/or location of a sign or signs established by this Chapter may be approved with a Site Plan Review or a Planned Unit Development process as described for in Section 1320 and 1355 of the Zoning Code. 4. Flexibility through the Site Plan Review process has been requested for the height, sign area, and sign face quantity for a freestanding sign on the Subject Property. 5. The proposed signage plan does not conflict with the general purpose and intent of the I-1 Zoning District or the Comprehensive Development Plan for the City. 6. The application is not anticipated to create a negative impact on the immediate area or the community as a whole. 7. The proposed plan will not produce any permanent noise, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air pollution, heat, liquid, or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics. 8. A public hearing is not required for Site Plan Review. Community Development Director Jagoe explained the Planning Commission reviewed this application at their June 5, 2024, meeting. At that time, they recommended approval of Planning Case 24-012 to install signage on an existing freestanding structure along Lexington Avenue at 4061 Lexington Avenue N with conditions by a 4-1 vote. The Planning Commission suggested that the Applicant incorporate landscaping plans into the sign proposal. The following are motion language options for the City Council to consider. Councilmember Holden asked if there was illumination in this sign. Community Development Director Jagoe reported the sign was internally lit. Councilmember Holden indicated she had some concerns regarding the landscaping. She explained this was a corner that has a great deal of snow storage and salt. She questioned where there was space to put landscaping given all of the easements that were in place around this sign. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 10 Community Development Director Jagoe explained the Planning Commission recommended the applicant work to create a landscaping plan. She stated she understood there were a number of easements and utilities under this sign. She reiterated that the landscaping was not a condition for approval, but rather was a suggestion from the Planning Commission. MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Monson seconded a motion to adopt Resolution 2024-036 for Planning Case 24-012 for a Site Plan Review to install signage on an existing freestanding structure along Lexington Avenue at 4061 Lexington Avenue N based on the findings of fact and submitted plans, as amended by the three conditions in the June 24, 2024 report to the City Council. Councilmember Monson explained she would be supporting this request. She commented on the challenges childcare facilities are facing across the country. Mayor Grant indicated he would be supporting this request. He stated he appreciated the case that was made by the applicant. Councilmember Fabel reported the proposed sign does not conflict with the general purpose and intent of the sign ordinance, nor would there be any negative impact on the immediate area. For this reason, he noted he would be supporting the request. The motion carried (5- 12. UNFINISHED BUSINESS None. 13. COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilmember Rousseau explained due to the tornado watch the other week the PTRC meeting was canceled. Councilmember Rousseau asked how much it cost the City to install a park bench. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen estimated it cost the City $1,000 per bench. Councilmember Fabel commented on the Joint Worksession the Council held with the Mounds View City Council. He stated a potential sports facility was discussed along with organized trash collection and joint recreation activities. He indicated he wanted to hear more about the joint recreation activities. Councilmember Holden asked if the Council could receive reports from the recreation department regarding the revenues and expenditures for the programs that are being offered. Councilmember Holden reported there appears to be a mismatch with what is happening with the goats. She did not believe Councilmember Rousseau was against getting rid of the buckthorn, but noted perhaps Director Swearingen did not know who to be in contact with. She questioned who was in charge of this project and asked why the seed was not sown. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 11 Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated he reached out to Kerri Seemann who had been overseeing this project. He noted Ms. Seemann had been working with Bob and Steve to coordinate with the goat herding company. He clarified for the record that he was not aware of the finer details of this project. Councilmember Holden requested City staff follow up on this project. City Administrator Perrault indicated Public Works would be keeping a closer eye on this project as it wraps up. He explained a larger discussion could be held the role of volunteers in the future. Councilmember Holden questioned if the seed could still be spread this year. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated the benefit of spreading the seed before the goats arrive was to allow their hooves to push the seed into the ground. He indicated seed could still be spread manually. Councilmember Rousseau reported she was not plotting to keep buckthorn. She stated what has been happening was the PTRC member working on this project has received constant communications from one individual and this was helping her to lose interest in this project. She understood the PTRC member reached out recently and provided feedback on the grass seeding. Councilmember Monson stated she would have assumed City staff would manage these projects instead of a volunteer. She explained she supported the City having a parks master plan in place to assist with laying out how the City would address the management of buckthorn. Councilmember Holden indicated she wanted clear procedures in place for future parks projects in order to ensure the proper course of action is followed. Mayor Grant asked why seed was not put down. Councilmember Rousseau stated she was uncertain why seed was not put down. Councilmember Monson commented while it was disappointing seed was not put down, there were other options for the City. Councilmember Monson reported she and the Mayor met with Xcel Energy to discuss the Partners in Energy program. She stated more data would be provided to her and the mayor in the coming weeks. Councilmember Monson discussed the great work being done for the community by Arden Hills Greening. She noted this was a volunteer based resident group. Councilmember Monson explained she would be interested in reopening the discussion on the chicken keeping ordinance. She reported this ordinance was highly restrictive, required neighbor approval and expensive screening. She suggested the Council readdress this ordinance at a future worksession. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JUNE 24, 2024 12 Councilmember Monson indicated she would support the Council receiving a presentation from Twin Cities Gateway. Mayor Grant stated he had spoken to the executive director of the Twin Cities Gateway and he would be willing to come in and provide the City Council with a presentation. Councilmember Monson commented she would also like to receive a presentation from the police and fire departments on an annual basis. Mayor Grant thanked City Attorney Schmidt for her productive tenure with the City and wished her well in the future. Mayor Grant provided the Council with an update from the Twin Cities Gateway Visitor's Bureau. Mayor Grant commented on the joint discussion that was held with the Mounds View City Council regarding joint park and recreation services. Mayor Grant requested further information regarding Arden Hills Greening. Councilmember Monson explained Steve Erler, Pam Erler and Kerri Seemann were volunteers working with Arden Hills Greening. Mayor Grant reported the City's chicken keeping ordinance was modeled after the City of Minneapolis as well as other cities, and he noted the City was not attempting to be restrictive. A n-InITRN MOTION: Councilmember Monson moved and Councilmember Holden seconded a motion to adiourn. The motion carried (5-0).

Background Investments - per the Investment Policy, our Benchmark Rate is the 4M plus Rate. At June 30, 2024 — this rate was 5.234% and our portfolio is averaging 2.97%. Our average rate will begin to increase as lower interest investments mature and we continue to invest in higher interest investments. All of our investments are in government secured or government backed deposits. Utility billing cycles and CIP projects are taken into account when determining how much to invest and for how long. Basis of accounting — during the year, City books are kept on a cash basis which means that only items that are received are booked as revenue and items paid are booked as expenses. Adjustments for accruals, deferrals and other accounting requirements are made at year end. The second quarter financial results are generally as expected across all City funds. Building permit revenues are down from the prior year due to decreased building activity. Liquor sales are also down from the prior year. Departments for the most part are under the 50% expended thus far in the year, with the exception of Fire Protection as the annual contract was fully expended in the first half of the year. General Fund — The main source of revenue for the City is property taxes and these come in twice a year. Expenditures are at 51.7% of budget through the end of the second quarter; however, if the second half Fire contract payment had not been expended in the second quarter, expenditures would be at 44.9% compared to 44.4% last year. Some of the differences are also due to the timing of invoices. Page 1 of 2 Other governmental funds and enterprise funds — Utility revenue for second quarter is booked in July 2024 and annual transfers between funds will be booked later in the year. Investment interest earnings total $282,996.43 at the end of second quarter compared to $221,390.18 at the end of the second quarter in 2023, a 27.8% increase. Market value adjustments for investments total $32,571.09 through the end of the second quarter. At the end of 2023, the City recognized a market value loss of $392,148.12.

Background Kevin Olson of SnowGlobe is once again planning a 2024 Ribfest event to be held at the Redbulls Headquarters on September 21, 2024. As was the case with the inaugural event last year, several entities will be involved in the approval process for various aspects related to this event. Liquor will be offered at the event which will once again be provided by Skinners Pub, a restaurant that holds a State of Minnesota caterer's license and on -sale liquor license, satisfying the State's requirement for serving liquor at an event. The sponsor also plans to hold a raffle, which requires submittal of the State of Minnesota's LG220 gambling application and acknowledgement of such by the City Council. That application is being brought forward to the City Council for consideration under Consent Item 8D at tonight's meeting. Regarding City approvals, a miscellaneous permit for the event itself and an outdoor concert license for live music are required. These items require City Council approval and are attached (see Attachments A and B). A zoning permit for tents is also required but does not require formal Council approval. City staff are working with the Fire Marshal regarding the applicable zoning permit for tents. Page 1 of 2 Staff is requesting Council consideration regarding conditional approval of the City's outdoor concert license and miscellaneous permit. The permits are conditional based on the following: • Ramsey County Sheriff and Public Works approval of security and traffic plans • Lake Johanna Fire Department approval of fire protection and EMS response • Public Health approval of food handling and/or other public health items • Approval by any other required regulated agencies not identified here The sponsors of the event must comply with any requests made of the aforementioned agencies to satisfy permit approvals. As part of this approval, Staff or Council will have the right to revoke the permit should it be deemed the event or its sponsors are not complying, or planning to not comply, with any of the outlined provisions.

Ramsey County has been an Entitlement Urban County receiving an annual allocation of CDBG dollars since 1986. The County has used these dollars to undertake housing and community development activities primarily benefiting the low and moderate -income residents of suburban Ramsey County. Sixteen suburban communities have chosen to participate in the agreement process over the past thirty years, ensuring a guaranteed annual allocation for the County and those suburban municipalities that desire to actively participate in the program. The City of Arden Hills has signed cooperative agreements with the County since 1985. CDBG federal regulations require that Ramsey County seek the support and interest of their suburban municipalities every three (3) years as part of a CDBG requalification process. The cooperation agreement with Ramsey County to participate in this program is usually renewed automatically unless a jurisdiction opts out or if an amendment must be approved. As part of this requalification period, the City was notified that there was an amendment required by HUD as part of the cooperation agreement language for Ramsey County. The attached agreement includes one amended and replaced paragraph as part of the approval.

Paragraph 4.L.2 of the Agreement is amended and replaced with the following: may participate in a HOME and ESG Programs only through the Authority. If Ramsey County does not receive a HOME formula allocation, the Municipality may not form a HOME consortium with other units of general local government. This does not preclude the Urban County or the Municipality from applying for HOME or ESG funds from the State, if the State allows. 2.

The Personnel Committee recently discussed how to best move forward with the City Administrator vacancy and is recommending Jessica Jagoe, the current Community Development Director, to serve in the interim capacity. This approval would provide for the interim capacity to last until revoked by the City Council or notice by Mrs. Jagoe that she no longer wishes to serve in the interim capacity; it is anticipated it will last until at least the end of the year. This approval will also include out of class pay for Mrs. Jagoe in the amount of an additional fifteen percent of her normal salary. Pending approval, Mrs. Jagoe would begin her interim duties effective at the end of the workday on August 9th following the current City Administrator's departure and would have the duties and authority normally attributed to the City Administrator. Budget Impact The exact budget impact is unknown but will be more than offset by the vacancy of the City Administrator.

Miller - Assistant Public Works Director SUBJECT: 2024 CIPP Lining Project — Payment No. I Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: $415,000 $400,360 Sanitary Sewer Utility Fund, MCES VI Grant Council Should Consider Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: • Payment No. 1 for the 2024 CIPP Lining Project to Hydro-Klean, LLC in the amount of $59,029.20. Background/Discussion On April 8, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution 2024-018 Accepting Bid and Awarding the Construction Contract with Hydro-Klean, LLC for the 2024 CIPP Lining Project in the amount of $505,280. In a previous memo on February 12, 2024, City staff recommended adding an Alternative construction bid to the project. This includes a grouting and sealing process for the private service laterals. It helps to eliminate I/I but also prevents root intrusion from the private service into the main line which makes routine cleaning operations more efficient. This repair method has been completed on previous projects including the 2021 PMP and proposed in the 2024 PMP. The as -bid Alternative cost was three times higher than the engineer's estimate, but the construction contract allows flexibility by the City to reduce the total number of service repairs during construction. Staff plans to limit the number of repairs to only the services with significant need. The anticipated number of repairs is 30, the corresponding value is reflected in the budget table below. For added information, the service lateral repair work is not considered for reimbursement through the MetCouncil Public I/I grant program. City staff recommended Page 1 of 2 adopting Resolution 2024-018 as presented and will modify the repair work during construction as described. Pursuant to Resolution 2024-010 adopted by City Council on February 12, 2024, City staff initiated bid advertisement for the 2024 CIPP Lining project. A total of two bids were received on March 6, 2024, and opened publicly at City Hall. The project is approximately 15% complete at this time. Items completed to this point include pre -televising and pre -cleaning the entirety of the sewer system within the project and also the open trench repair of a failing sewer leg identified within the plan set. Five percent is being withheld from the work completed in accordance with the contract documents. Payment No. 1 is in the amount of $59,029.20. Staff recommends that Council approve Payment No. 1. Budget Impact A summary of the project costs and funding sources to date is provided below: Total As -Bid Costs: Construction (Primary) $ 282,260 Construction (Alternate) $ 56,700 Engineering Services $ 61,400 TOTAL $ 400,360 Total Estimated Funding Sanitary Sewer Utility Fund $ 400,360 TOTAL $ 400,360 The City is participating in the 2023 Metropolitan Council (MCES) Public Inflow and Infiltration Grant program. Roughly 25% of the construction costs from this project will be eligible for reimbursement at the end of the program cycle in 2026. I/I grant eligible funds are 25% of the pipe lining bid item costs which calculates to $70,565. The 2024-2028 CIP Budget includes funding in the amount of $415,000 for the proposed work.

Public Works Director / City Engineer SUBJECT: Park Habitat Management - Great River Greening Cooperative Agreements Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: $0 $38,125 PIR - Parks Council Should Consider Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: • Cooperative Agreement with Great River Greening for Hazelnut Park Understory Restoration and Chatham Park Natural Resource Management Brief Project • Cooperative Agreement with Great River Greening for Floral Park Woodland and Prairie Habitat Restoration Project Background/Discussion At the April 24, 2023 Work Session, this topic was first presented to the City Council. Direction was received to partner with Great River Greening (GRG) to apply for state funding to go towards buckthorn and general habitat management projects at selected parks in Arden Hills. Some of the parks discussed were Hazelnut Park, Chatham Open Space, Floral Park and Perry Park. Since then, Great River Greening has been successful at attaining available funds for the City of Arden Hills through the Outdoor Heritage Fund grant program. On April 16, 2024 the PTRC discussed the project proposals from Great River Greening. The PTRC voted to approve the projects as proposed and move it to the City Council for discussion and further direction. On April 22, 2024 GRG gave a presentation for the full project proposal and background. Council direction was to bring back estimated costs for long-term maintenance needs and exact minimum City cash match requirements and an example of a Natural Resource Management Plan. Page 1 of 2 At the July 8, 2024 Work Session Council gave direction to move forward with the two proposed projects which consists of Hazelnut Park Understory Restoration and Chatham Park Natural Resource Management Brief Project and Floral Park Woodland and Prairie Habitat Restoration Project. The project Cooperative Agreements with GRG are as Attachments A & B. Budget Impact Project Hazelnut Park & Chatham NRMB Floral Park NRMB Chatham Park Totals: Grant amount City funds $ 54,700 $ 12,000 $ 215,100 $ 26,125 N/A N/A Tntal C'ntt 66,700 (Over 3 years) 241,225 (Over 5 years) N/A 269,800 $ 38,125 $ 307,925 Minimum City cash match: Hazelnut Park & Chatham NRMB = $9,000 Floral Park = $20,000 Total minimum cash match = $29,000 GRG notes that volunteer labor cannot be counted towards in -kind City match, in previous discussions it was believed that it could be. Examples of in -kind City labor or contracted services are, but are not limited to, staff time or Arden Hills contracted activities that accomplish a management task within the acres of the project that is required for the completion of the project which otherwise would have been paid for by the grant, such as prairie mowing or woody material removal or disposal. Council should keep in mind when this project was first introduced, it was under the assumption that Public Works would be involved very minimally or not at all during the actual remediation process but would need to plan for the long-term maintenance. If it is Council direction to utilize Public Works as in -kind labor match during remediation, staff will need to schedule this work within the annual Public Works Maintenance Plan and will likely cause more items to be backlogged for repair or maintenance. Long-term maintenance of the 26.03 acres will increase the annual maintenance and operations budget. GRG has provided an estimate for each project site over a span of the first 5 years, the actual amount is not known at this time. If all project sites are approved and completed, the estimated maintenance costs would be $12,830 per year on average or $64,150 total over 5 years. The required activities for long-term maintenance are beyond the Public Works Department's current standard procedures. Public Works staff also believes that in order to adequately manage this program, it should be by a person specialized in natural resources. Arden Hills does not currently have a position specifically for natural resources.

CONSENT ITEM - 8.1 ,-ARZEN HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: July 22, 2024 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Lucas J. Miller, Assistant Public Works Director David Swearingen, P.E. Public Works Director / City Engineer SUBJECT: 2024 Street Maintenance Program — Large Area Patching project Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: $220,000 $227,354.09 Street Maintenance Fund Council Should Consider Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: • Quote from GMH Asphalt in the amount of $141,472.00 for the 2024 Street Maintenance Program Large Area Patching project on Grey Fox Rd, Red Fox Rd, and Lake Valentine Rd. Background/Discussion On Tuesday July 16, Public Works staff received 3 quotes to perform the proposed large area patching project for Grey Fox Rd., Red Fox Rd., and Lake Valentine Rd. Attachment A shows a map of the proposed streets. Staff selected these streets for large area patching due to their pavement condition ratings which ranged from 51 to 57, pothole patching has increased significantly, and the City's Pavement Management Program (PMP) project schedule does not address these streets until 2030 and 2032.

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS BY: _____________________________ Its Mayor DAVE PERRAULT __________________________________ PUBLIC HEARING -10A 'It �-`iIQEN�HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: July 22, 2024 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #24-009 — Public Hearing Required Applicant: Lake Johanna Fire Department Property Location: 3535 Pine Tree Drive Request: Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review Council Should Consider the Following: Hold the required public hearing for Planning Case 24-009, an application from the Lake Johanna Fire Department ("The Applicant") is requesting a Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review for a proposed project on 3535 Pine Tree Drive ("Subject Property"). The proposal consists of construction of a 41,000 square foot Headquarters Fire Station facility that will house administrative staff as well as a response crew and includes training facilities for the Department. The City Council will be asked to make a formal decision regarding the application under Agenda Item 11 A. Background 1. Overview of Request The Applicant has submitted a land use application for Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review, proposing to develop a 3.7-acre site located at 3535 Pine Tree Drive. The Subject Property is currently owned by the Applicant. The Applicant is proposing to build a two-story fire station Headquarters facility of approximately 41,000 square feet with a training facility and training tower. The Lake Johanna Fire Department provides public fire and medical emergency response services to the Cities of Arden Hills, North Oaks, and Shoreview. The Applicant currently operates out of three stations, the proposed project would replace Station 4 located at 3615 Victoria Street in Shoreview and become the Headquarters for the Department. The Applicant is planning for construction of the new Headquarters facility to begin in 2025. The Headquarters Fire Station facility will consist of offices for five (5) full time staff members that would maintain typical Monday through Friday 8 to 5 business hours. The fire station will Page 1 of 14 have a crew of three (3) Firefighters on duty 24/7 to respond to fire and emergency medical service (EMS) calls. 2. History of the Subject Property In 2013, Bethel University purchased the property at 2 Pine Tree Drive to use the existing office building for higher education. This location is known as the Anderson Center campus. In 2020, Bethel University subdivided the approximate 43 acre site into three (3) parcels known as the 2 Pine Tree North plat. The Applicant purchased Lot 2 Block 1 of that plat in 2020. The other lot as part of this plat is now the location of New Perspective Senior Living. During the platting process, the Applicant was conducting their due diligence on the potential for acquiring the Subject Property. In 2018, the Applicant had completed a study that determined the need for a new Fire Station to be built on a site that could support the communities and their needs over "the next 50 years". It was determined that at a minimum the Department needed at least three (3) acres. This study also noted the future Fire Station should include six (6) drive through bays and living/sleeping quarters. The new Fire Station, because of size and equipment housed, would transition to become the new Headquarters Station and include necessary operational and training functions. Page 2 of 14 The Department is currently overseen by a Board of Directors, the Board ("Board") consists of City representatives (one (1) Arden Hills rep, one (1) North Oaks rep, and two (2) Shoreview reps) and three (3) member from the Department. The Board is responsible for an array of duties, such as, reviewing policies, approving long range plans and approving operating and capital budgets. In 2021, the Cities of Arden Hills, North Oaks, and Shoreview entered into a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) for the purposes of acquiring and constructing improvements on property that was to be identified for the new Headquarters. The Applicant purchased the Subject Property in 2021 due to the location being ideal to improve access for emergency vehicles and improve response times to the service area. As part of the land use application, the Applicant has included a letter of support from the Board for advancement of this project to meet the service needs of the public. It is agreed upon as part of the JPA that the Applicant will transfer ownership of the Subject Property to the Lake Johanna Fire Department Headquarters JPA. Approvals 1. Planned Unit Development A Planned Unit Development (PUD) is required for all new development and redevelopment in the B-2 Zoning District. In addition, a PUD would allow for performance standard flexibility. This proposal involves both the initial Master Plan PUD and the Final PUD. Architectural Plan 2. Conditional Use Permit In the B-2 Zoning District, a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) is required for Public Use. The Cities of Arden Hills, North Oaks, and Shoreview contract with the Lake Johanna Fire Department to provide emergency response services for Fire and EMS calls to the public. The City refers to the Lake Johanna Fire Department in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan under Chapter 13, Public Facilities, Services, and Infrastructure. A conditional use is allowed if the landowner meets the general and specific standards set forth in the zoning ordinance. City Code 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 and the community, in general, including but not limited to the following factors: 1. Existing and anticipated traffic and parking conditions; The Applicant has provided as part of their submission a site plan of adjacent roads to identify fire response vehicle travel patterns will be north on Pine Tree Drive to the nearby controlled intersections. The Applicant has stated that the only exception to this Page 3 of 14 northerly route will be to respond to emergencies in the Hunters Park Condos, Hunters Park neighborhood, or Catholic United building. Their narrative states that traffic pre- emption will control the nearby intersections for the emergency vehicle, making it safer for the firefighters and the public. The Headquarters facility will consists of offices for five (5) full time staff members and would maintain typical Monday through Friday 8 to 5 business hours. The fire station will have a crew of three (3) Firefighters on duty 24/7 to respond to fire and EMS calls. The use of the facility for the 24/7 staffing of station crew is not anticipated to generate enough consistent traffic during peak or non peak hours to require any traffic control changes. A traffic study was not prepared as part of the application and may be waived by the City Council as part of the PUD. The Applicant has stated that based on their current call volume, they anticipate that this station would respond to around 2, 000 calls annually. The Consultant Engineer for the City has stated "it is not estimated that this project will generate more than 100 peak hour trips and a traffic study is not required. " 2. Noise, glare, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air pollution, heat, liquid or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics; The narrative states that fire trucks leaving the station to respond to emergency calls will turn on their flashing emergency lights which will capture the traffic signal at Pine Tree and County Road E. After pulling forward out of the station, trucks will make a left turn to the north on Pine Tree Drive. As they approach County Road E, they will activate their sirens, and turn to the west or east as needed. 3. Drainage; The proposed site plan does not negatively impact drainage on adjacent properties and the Applicant has stormwater management onsite that is intended to meet the quantity and quality standards. The Application has been reviewed by the Public Works Director/City Engineer and will go through the Rice Creek Watershed approval process. 4. Population density; The Subject Property is guided as Community Mixed Use (CMU) in the 2040 Future Land Use Plan. The area is designated for a broad range of retail, shopping, services, and office space to meet the needs of the community and surrounding areas. The expected share of uses within this area are as follows: 10% to 50% Light Industrial; 10% to 70% Retail; 10% to 70% Office; and 10% to 50% Residential. A development intensity of up to 0.8 FAR maybe allowed. The Applicant is proposing a two-story 41, 000 square foot building that equals 0.25 FAR on the Subject Property. 5. Visual and land use compatibility with uses and structures on surrounding land; The proposed building materials will meet the B-2 preferred material requirement as identified in the Design Standards. The Architect for the project notes that a cantilevered canopy visually announces that this is the public entrance to the facility and the site features a plaza and flag display at the entry for visual structures. The Applicant has stated in their narrative that historically Fire Departments are very good neighbors and that two of the other stations are adjacent to residential land uses, schools and day cares. 6. Adjoining land values; The proposed development is not anticipated to negatively impact adjacent property values. Page 4 of 14 7. Park dedications where applicable; The Development Agreement for the 2 Pine Tree North plat indicated that Park Dedication required for Lots I and 2 will be determined by the City at the time of future development and will be memorialized in development agreements for those lots. The Applicant as part of this application is requesting the City waive the Public Use Dedications including the Park Dedication Fee. As part of their submittal, the Board has provided a letter of support for the Applicant's request. The Applicant and Board have received State of Minnesota funding for this project and applications have been made for federal funding. Funding for this Lake Johanna Fire Department Headquarters Station will primarily be through local tax dollars. At their meeting on July 10, 2024, the Planning Commission recommended the addition of Condition 20, which states that the Public Use Dedication/Park Dedication fee shall be waived for future development of Lot 2, Block I of the 2 Pine Tree North plat. 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 Lake Johanna Fire Department Headquarters Fire Station proposed facility at 3535 Pine Tree Drive is consistent with the purpose and intent with the policies within the City's Comprehensive Plan, the B-2 Zoning District and Guiding Plan for the B-2 District. Plan Evaluation Chapter 13, Zoning Regulations Review 1.

Design Standards - Section 1325.05 and 1325.055 A. Building Design — Flexibility Requested Section 1325.05 Subd. 8, E of the Arden Hills City Code states "the arrangement, massing, materials and colors shall work to create a high quality development that is responsive to existing buildings, site features, and site design on adjoining sites in the district." There are seven (7) evaluators for building design with one of those stating that at least fifty percent (50%) of the largest building on each site shall be constructed at the front setback line." The other evaluators to consider in review of the building design are that facade treatments shall be carried around all sides, avoid long unbroken expanses and to create visual interest from the street, awnings and overhangs shall be provided at the primary entryway, any multi -level building shall distinguish the ground floor level from the upper floors. Architectural plans are included in Attachment E. The Applicant is proposing a two-story building of approximately 41,000 square feet for their Headquarters facility. The front lot line is Pine Tree Drive and the front setback line is at 50 feet. The Applicant's site plan shows the building would be constructed at approximately 90 feet. Site Plan arx STATION � '� I I wcic I (? PAVING i I PINE TREE DRIVE Tom, B. Exterior Materials — Flexibility Requested At least seventy-five (75) percent of the exterior building materials should be made of brick masonry, tile masonry, natural stone or its synthetic equivalent, decorative concrete plank, transparent glass or any combination thereof. Trim and other accent or decorative features may be metal, wood, split faced block, EIFS, or stucco. Metals shall have a matte finish and have visible corner moldings and trim when used on exterior walls. Undesirable materials include simulated brick, vinyl or aluminum siding, sheet or corrugated metal siding, plain concrete blocks or panels, brightly colored metal roofing or canopies, pre -cast tilt -up walls, and mirrored or reflective glass. Building colors shall be muted. Recommended colors include browns, grays, tans, beiges, and dark or muted green, blues, and reds. Bright or brilliant colors and sharply contrasting Page 6 of 14 colors may be used for only accent purposes occupying a maximum of five percent (5%) of building fagades. The City Council should evaluate the architectural style and building character based on the quality of its design and on its relationship to its surroundings. Site characteristics to be evaluated for this purpose include, but are not limited to, building and landscaping materials, colors, textures, shapes, massing, building components, height, roof -line, and setback. A full plan set of building elevations is included as Attachment E. Planning Staff has provided the review below on building materials and transparency as shared by the Applicant in order for the City Council to attain a better understanding of the full scope of their project design. The proposed building complies with building materials consisting of brick, glass, or metal trim on all elevations. The transparency requirements for new developments within the B-2 Zoning District have been considered in the window placement and design for the fire station facility. Section 1325.05, Subd. 8, F. states that fifty percent (50%) of all first level building fagades that front a public street shall be comprised of transparent windows or doors in order to allow views of interior uses and activities. The following table shows the breakdown of materials for the fire station: Required Proposed Other Required Proposed Proposed Preferred Preferred Materials Transparency Transparency Transparency Materials Materials *first level *full elevation East 75% 95% 5% 50% 57% 46% (front) Fagade North 75% 94% 6% N/A 23% 10% Facade South 75% 97% 3% N/A 5% 4% Facade West 75% 85% 15% N/A 15% 10% Fagade The buildings design has facade stepping and a variation in rooflines as viewed from all elevations. The Applicant has noted that they have incorporated many "Green Building" sustainable design features in this project. As noted in the application materials, the Applicant began the efforts for studying the Department needs and designing this project back in 2018. This project is intended to meet their needs for "the next 50 years" and will provide for the administrative, operational (i.e. Headquarters), apparatus bays, and training facility. This facility will be used for classroom and hands-on training both inside the training room and outside. There could be groups ranging from 10-40 firefighters in attendance a few times each week. The four (4) story training tower on the west (rear) side of the building will use non -toxic fire props, theatrical smoke machines and will also be used for ladder training and rope rescue training. The fire station project with the proposed design has received State funding towards future construction. As part of their design process in 2020/21, the Applicant shared schematic "artist's views" of their project plans and renderings with each City Council for feedback. This information was used as part of their due diligence prior to preparation of their project bid documents which have been finalized. The Applicant has submitted to the City for the land use approval prior to applying for construction permits. Page 7 of 14 Rendering of West (rear) and South Elevations C. Lighting — Meets Requirements The Zoning Code requires exterior lighting to be consistent in type, design, scale, and color to create unity in the Districts. Exterior lighting for parking lots and buildings shall not be excessive and shall be directed at their intended purposes. Any light or combination of lights shall not cast light that exceeds a meter reading of one (1) foot candle on the travel lanes of ad j oining public streets or 0.4 foot candles on adjoining residential property. The proposed plan includes LED fixtures for area lights at a maximum of 30 feet to the top of the fixture, a monument sign and flag pole light, and then soffit lighting above the doorways/entry on the building. The proposed lighting is consistent with the use and the surrounding area. The Applicant has submitted a photometric plan that identifies the types of light fixtures and quantities. The Subject Property is not adjacent to a residential property. The photometric plan shows that proposed lighting will not exceed a meter reading of one (1) foot candle on the travel lanes on Pine Tree Drive. As a condition of approval, all lighting shall be downward directed shoebox style with flush lenses. Details about the proposed lighting are found in Attachment F. D. Screening — Meets Requirements Screens and fencing help minimize adverse impacts of public nuisances, such as noise. Trash and recycling equipment, materials, and containers shall be fully enclosed and integrated into the architecture of the buildings. All mechanical equipment, whether roof -mounted or ground - mounted should be integrated into the architecture of the building. It shall be completely screened from the ground -level view of adjacent properties and public streets. Page 8 of 14 There is a generator, electrical transformer, and trash enclosure located on the rear of the building that are screened by the building to the public street. The trash enclosure will feature metal trash enclosure gates and is constructed with brick consistent with the building design. The Applicant did not include roof plans or associated building sections to illustrate all roof -mounted mechanical equipment is screened. Planning staff has included a condition recommending that all rooftop or ground mounted mechanical equipment shall be hidden from view with the same materials used on the building in accordance with City Code requirements. E. Landscaping — Flexibility Requested Section 1320.06 — District Requirements Chart of the City Code requires a minimum landscape lot area of 20% or 32,234 square feet for the Subject Property in the B-2 Zoning District. The Applicant is proposing a landscape lot area of approximately 34% percent or 55,835 square feet. Additionally, at least 10% or 3,223 square feet of the total landscaped area (i.e. 32,234 square feet) shall be covered with perennials and/or shrubbery. The Applicant is proposing perennial and/or shrubbery of approximately 9% or 2,926 square feet. Per the Applicant, a revised landscape plan will be submitted with the future building permit application that would comply with the 10% plantings of perennial and/or shrubbery and it is not their intent to seek flexibility from this requirement. Lastly, planting islands shall occupy 10% or 2,346 square feet of the parking area (i.e. 23,465 square feet). The plans show the provided planting islands are covering approximately 10.5% or 2,459 square of the parking area. The site contains 984 caliper inches of significant trees. Section 1325.055 Subd. 5 allows for the removal of fewer than ten (10) percent of the caliper inches of significant trees on the property without requiring mitigation. Ten percent of 984 is 98.4 caliper inches. The Applicant proposes removing 984 caliper inches of trees, meaning the Applicant is responsible for mitigation of 886 caliper inches removed above 10 percent. Per Section 1325.055 Subd. 6, the number of caliper inches of trees required for replanting is determined at a rate of 1:2 or one (1) inch replaced for every two (2) inches lost. Existing 10% of Proposed Inches in Required Proposed Existing Removal excess of 10% Replacement Replacement 984 caliper 98.4 caliper 984 caliper 886 caliper 443 caliper 48 caliper inches inches inches inches inches inches The Applicant is seeking flexibility for the required replacement of 443 caliper inches based on the total inches removed and the rate of replacement due to the need to maintain exiting sightlines for the firefighters when they leave for a call. The Applicant has noted the landscaping plan includes an abundance of plantings and is proposing to plant 48 caliper inches on site. The Applicant's Tree Preservation Plan (Sheet L 101) for the landscaping requirements table indicates a proposed 128 caliper inches to be provided. For the purposes of this report, Planning Staff has used the figures as calculated on the Landscaping Details and Notes Plan (Sheet L104) which includes the tree inventory schedule. The Applicant has stated in their narrative that they would be willing to consider an off -site location to satisfy this requirement, but does not have a location identified. They have also requested the City waive the payment in lieu of option (i.e. cost of materials and installation plus 10%) which would be considered as part of the PUD review. At the July 10, 2024 Planning Commission meeting, the Planning Commission considered the Applicant's request for flexibility to recommend approval of the proposed tree replacement at 48 caliper inches and to waive requirements for planting at an off -site location and for a payment in lieu of option. Upon review, the Commission determined that the proposed 48 caliper inches did not adequately satisfy the intent of the City's ordinance for tree mitigation. The Planning Page 9 of 14 Commission added Condition 19 to the conditions of approval, which states The Applicant shall follow city code accordingly for tree mitigation of 300 caliper inches. The City Code requires a minimum of one (1) tree be provided along the right-of-way of every 40 feet of public street frontage. The proposed development would be required to plant seven (7) trees along Pine Tree Drive which the Applicant has satisfied in their landscaping plan as presented. A landscape plan is included as Attachment H. F. Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation — Meets Requirements Section 1325.05 Subd. 8, P states new building construction shall include construction of a minimum of six (6) foot concrete sidewalk adjacent to or in all right-of-way. In addition, there shall be an internal sidewalk connection linking the primary entrance with the public sidewalk. The Applicant has indicated they will comply with this requirement. The Applicant is not proposing a bicycle rack/bicycle parking as part of this development. City Code Section 1325.05 Subd, 8, Q applies to commercial uses and requires one (1) space for every 20 parking spaces. 3. Off -Street Parking Standards - Section 1325.06 A. Parking Setbacks — Meets Requirements The City Code requires off-street parking areas to be located a minimum of 20 feet from the right- of-way of any public street and five (5) feet from any side or rear lot lines. The Applicant has satisfied these requirements with the site plan as presented. B. Number of Parking Stalls — Planning Commission Recommendation Per City Code 1325.06, there are general categories that determine the number of parking spaces that would need to be provided. Public Use is listed under the category of "Uses Not Specifically Noted Including Public Uses — As Determined by the City Council after recommendation by Planning Commission". Page 10 of 14 The Applicant is proposing 54 parking stalls. As noted in their narrative, the Headquarters facility will generally have five (5) full time staff members that would maintain typical Monday through Friday 8 to 5 business hours. The fire station will have a crew of three (3) Firefighters on duty 24/7 to respond to fire and emergency medical service (EMS) calls. In addition, this facility will be used for classroom and hands-on training with groups ranging from 10-40 firefighters in attendance a few times each week. At its July 10, 2024 meeting, the Planning Commission made a recommendation for the approval of the parking plan as presented. C. Driveways — Recommended Condition Within the parking requirements, the City has a standard for the maximum driveway width for residential and commercial, but not public use. As an example for commercial, the maximum driveway width is 32 feet on City streets. The Applicant is proposing two (2) driveway accesses along Pine Tree Drive. The southerly access is proposed to be 117 feet and the northerly access is proposed to be 28 feet. An initial comment from the Consultant Engineer was the spacing between Bethel's main entrance and the proposed employee entrance should be reconsidered to provide more spacing. Upon review of the Application, the Public Works Director/City Engineer provided comment in a PW/Engineering Division memo dated June 27, 2024 (Attachment J) for the Applicant to review northern driveway access distance as it relates to the existing driveway access from the property to the north and to review southern driveway access to better align with the driveway access across Pine Tree Drive, if possible. At the July 10 Planning Commission meeting, it was recommended as a condition of application approval that all items identified in the June 27, 2024 memo be addressed and adopted. 4. Sign Code — Section 1240.02 A. Freestanding Signs — Verification Needed The Subject Property is located in Sign District 7. Properties in Sign District 7 are allowed one (1) freestanding sign measuring up to 25 square feet in copy area and not exceeding eight (8) feet in height. Freestanding signs shall be located at least five (5) feet from any property line. Sign copy area is defined as the area in square feet of the smallest rectangle, circle, or triangle that contains the sign copy. The Applicant is proposing a monument sign along Pine Tree Drive as shown on the site plan in compliance with setbacks requirements. The proposed externally illuminated freestanding sign is five (5) feet in height and has a total sign copy area of 36 square feet as shown on the sign illustration including logo and text, not address information. Also, the total area of a freestanding sign shall not exceed 1.5 times the permitted sign copy area of said sign which would be 37.5 square feet for this application. The Applicant has indicated the proposed freestanding sign has a total area of 30 square feet (60 inches tall by 72 inches wide). These dimensions would result in a proposed copy area that exceeds the total sign area. The Applicant stated at the Planning Commission meeting on July 10, 2024 their intent to comply with the sign code and that flexibility is not being sought for signage. Staff will confirm the conformance of the proposed signage with the sign code during the sign permit review for each individual sign. Sign materials are noted to be consistent with building materials. The sign plan is shown in Attachment G. B. Wall Signs — Meets Requirements Properties in Sign District 7 are allowed wall signs up to 45 square feet. The Applicant is proposing two (2) non illuminated totaling 28 square feet of wall signs to be located on the east and west elevations at the apparatus bays. The sign plan is shown in Attachment G. Page 11 of 14 5. Section 1355.04 Procedural Requirements for Specific Applications A public hearing for a CUP and PUD request is required before the request can be brought before the City Council. The applicant or its representative shall be given the opportunity to appear before the Planning Commission to answer questions or give explanations regarding the proposal. Upon completion of the public hearing and its study and consideration of the application, the Planning Commission shall submit its written report, containing its findings, conclusions, and recommendations as to the application, to the City Council.

We operate three fire stations; two stations are staffed 24 hours a day. Station 2 is located at 4676 Hodgson Rd, Station 3 at 5545 Lexington Ave. and Station 4 at 3615 Victoria St. We anticipate staffing Station 3 over the next several years. We currently have five full-time staff and 80 part-time firefighters who work shifts at the stations. We require that all our Firefighters are State Certified Firefighter II and State Certified EMT or higher. In 2021, we are on pace to run about 4,000 Fire/EMS calls for the year. New Headquarters Building - Operations The building at the 3535 Pine Tree Dr. address will be used as a new Headquarters/Fire Station and replace station 4 located at 3615 Victoria St. The Headquarters' Office consists of five (5) full-time staff members and would maintain typical Monday thru Friday 8-5 business hours, This fire station will be staffed 24/7 with an additional two (2) to four (4) firefighters to respond to Fire/EMS calls. Depending on the type of call, this station would typically respond with 1 truck for an EMS call, multiple units may respond for Fire calls. Based on the current call volume, we would anticipate that this station would respond to around 2,000 calls annually. As our trucks respond to emergency calls, they will drive out of the apparatus bay and turn left on Pine Tree Drive moving north to County Road E. For Emergency calls, we will be able to activate the traffic lights at County Road E and Pine Tree Drive once the emergency lights are activated on any apparatus. Traffic pre-emption will control the intersection for the emergency vehicle, making it safer for the firefighters and the public. New Headquarters Building -Training Facility This facility will also be used for classroom and hands-on training both inside the training room and outside. The number of firefighters training will vary from session to session. Typically, groups ranging between 10 — 40 firefighters would be attending the training offered a few times each week. This facility will also include a four (4) story training tower on the west side of the building. This will have live fire props inside the structure on two floors. The fire props will be natural gas fires which use non- toxic, theatrical smoke machines. This 4-story training tower will also be used for ladder training and rope rescue training. New Headquarters Building - Public Fire Education Our department is actively involved in Public Fire Education. We conduct various Public Fire Education and station tours to groups throughout the year, as well as larger events such as the Fire Prevention Week Open house. New Headquarters Building - as your neighbor We believe the New Headquarters/Station is ideally located to provide service to all those in Arden Hills, North Oaks, and Shoreview. We will fit nicely into this new location and believe it will not have a negative impact on nearby residents or businesses. Station 3 is located next to Turtle Lake Elementary School and Station 2 next to Kinder Care, Montessori School and Shoreview Senior Living Care facility. �� 1311 BUETOW 2 ARCHITECTS, INC. PROJECT EXPLANATION A Study in 2018 determined that a new Fire Station should be built on a new site to meet the needs of "the next 50 years". The size should be at least 3 acres and a site of 3.7 acres was purchased in 2020. The Study also noted the Station should include 6 drive through bays and living/sleeping quarters. The new Fire Station would then because of size and equipment contained would transition to become the new Headquarters Station and include much needed training functions. Exterior Design Concept Overall Image from Pine Tree Drive - The building exterior reflects the interior functions to the Public. The north half expresses the HQ office function on the first floor and firefighters dayroom, sleeping quarters and wellness spaces on the second level. The south half of the building is the apparatus bays and associated functions. The north half materials of glass and brick represent "office" and brick structural concrete wall panels on the south the "apparatus bays". Administrative Offices Entry/Main Entry A sloped cantilevered metal canopy visually announces that this is the Public entrance to the facility. It is adjacent the Memorial Entry Plaza and Flag display. As one enters the public parking area from Pine Tree Drive after passing the monument sign, the entry is very visible as the sculptural canopy reaches out toward the parking. LJFD Headquarters The function of offices is reinforced by the glass that wraps the northeast building corner around the offices on the inside. This glass feature is repeated at the set back second floor. Both levels include a horizontal aluminum sunscreen as the design utilizes many "Green Building" sustainable design features. The second level canopy over the exterior deck space is similar to the main entry canopy. The Fire Chiefs' vehicles garage adjacent the offices frames the transition between office and apparatus bays. Apparatus Bays and Training Area The south half of the building is brick structural insulated wall panels. The large bi-folding doors of the apparatus bays are the predominant feature. Above each vehicle exit door will be a clerestory window. The projecting clad tower form in the middle of the doors will be the backdrop for the LJFD logo emblem. Behind this projected piece inside the building are the associated spaces for firefighting and training. Floor Plan Design Concept Circulation Spine- First Level Upon entering the LJFD Headquarters lobby a corridor organizes the first floor ending in the access to the apparatus bays. The administrative offices are to the east and Training, fire/watch room and associated rooms to the west. The six drive through bays are bisected by the firefighting spaces such as turn out gear and training spaces. The multi -level training areas with props are the build out on the west side of the building. Circulation Spine- Second Level Similar to the first level, the second floor has a hall with a stair at each end and elevator centrally located. An efficient loop off of this spine accesses the sleeping rooms. Training Space The training spaces are multi -level and are vertically connected by the hose/training tower. BUETOW 2 ARCHITECTS, INC.

The department operates a total of three fire stations to provide service to over 31 square miles, and a combined population of over 42,000 residents. We staff all three stations with Firefighters who are on duty 24/7. Our firefighters are EMTs or Paramedics and will respond to about 4,800 calls this year. The primary Advanced Life Support (ALS) transport services are provided by Allina for all three cities. Building Use This new Headquarters Fire Station facility will house our administrative staff as well as a response crew. There will be offices for the Fire Chief, three (3) Assistant Chiefs, and the Office Manager. The fire station will have a crew of three (3) Firefighters on duty 24/7 to respond to fire and EMS calls. The building will have a large training room and many different built-in training props for use all year long. There is a 4- story training tower in the rear of the station that will have live fire props on multiple floors. These props will be fueled by natural gas and use theatrical smoke which is non -toxic and dissipates very quickly. Noise Concerns Fire trucks leaving the station to respond to emergency calls will turn on their flashing emergency lights which will capture the traffic signal at Pine Tree and County Road E. After pulling forward out of the station onto the apron (driveway) they will make a left turn to the north on Pine Tree Drive. As they approach County Road E, they will activate their sirens, and turn to the west or east as needed. The only exception to this northerly route will be to respond to emergencies in the Hunters Park Condos, Hunters Park neighborhood, or Catholic United building. Some fire departments used to have large sirens on telephone poles that sound when there is a fire call. Our department does not use those. When there is a fire or EMS call, the firefighters are alerted by lights and speakers inside the building, as well as their radios and mobile phones. For training occurring at this station, most of the training will occur inside the building, either in the classroom or apparatus bays. The training occurring outside will typically include fire truck pumping operations, aerial ladder training, and ground ladder training. On occasion the firefighters will be running chain saws and other rescue tools. Page 1 of 2 LAKE JOHANNA FIRE DEPARTMENT Neighborly Historically our fire department has been a very good neighbor to those around us. Our Hodgson Road Fire Station is between a KinderCare and a Shoreview Senior Living Care facility while across the street is Montessori School and single-family homes. Our current Headquarters Station on Lexington is across the street from Turtle Lake Elementary School. If anyone has additional questions or concerns, please contact us at admin@lifd.org. Sincerely, Tim Boehlke Fire Chief Page 2 of 2 1. Narrative- reasons for flexibilities The only item that we would need consideration for is landscaping. The existing site is covered with trees. These are being removed for the proposed building and paved areas that are required. The site will have an abundance of landscaping and the only request was that the exiting sightlines be clear for the firefighters when they leave for a call. Any requirement for trees will be fulfilled elsewhere as desired by the City.

Existing boundary, location, topographic, and utility information shown on this plan is from a field survey provided by Sunde Land Surveying • Do not begin tree clearing work until tree protection measures are in place and to the permit approval of the City of Arden Hills Forestry Department has been granted. • Critical Root Zone: Install high density polyethylene safety fence, 4 ft. high, international orange, at the Drip Line or at the Critical Root Zone whichever is greater, of trees to be preserved per detail 1, prior to commencement of earthwork activity. Field -staking of the fence location(s) subject to City of Arden Hills approval. • Where silt fence and proposed tree protection fence overlap, place the tree protection fence on the outside of the silt fence, double -staked at the break-point. • Refer to Tree Protection Detail 1, Sheet L101. • The contractor shall prune the canopy of existing trees to remain where the canopy is in jeopardy of damage due to the new improvements shown. It is recommended that the contractor hire a certified arborist to perform the pruning. Any branches broken during construction shall be immediately trimmed and wounds painted to prevent further damage. • Perform work in accordance with the laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and orders of public authority having jurisdiction. Secure and pay for permits, governmental fees and licenses necessary for the proper execution of the demolition work. • Provide protective coverings and enclosures as necessary to prevent damage to existing work that is to remain. Existing work to remain may include items such as trees, shrubs, lawns, sidewalks, drives, curbs, utilities, buildings and/or other structures on or adjacent to the demolition site. Provide temporary fences and barricades as required for the safe and proper execution of the work and the protection of persons and property. • Remove debris, waste, and rubbish promptly from the site. On -site burial of debris is not permitted. Burn no debris on the site. Salvage material not otherwise indicated to be reused shall become the Contractor's property and is to be removed promptly from the site and disposed of in strict accordance with all applicable laws, regulations, and/or statutes. • Buildings, features, surfaces, and other descriptive references shown on this drawing are for informational purposes only. Field verify all information relevant to the project prior to proceeding with the work. Visit the site and determine all site conditions and hazards. • This plan is a guide as to the anticipated amount of disturbance expected due to proposed improvements. The contractor is expected to take all necessary precautions to ensure trees noted to remain are not damaged during construction. Do not store material or drive within the drip line of existing trees to remain. Be aware of overhead branches for clearance of material and equipment. • This plan is not a guarantee that existing trees will survive during/post construction, but rather a guide to help assure their protection and greatest chances of survival at the surface level. Further protection measures outside this scope could involve ecologists, foresters and arborists. • Notify the Owner's Representative and Engineer when tree protection fencing is taken down to perform work in conjunction with the new improvements noted in this plan set. The contractor is responsible for re -erecting the tree protection fence immediately after the work is complete, when ever possible • Trees shown as existing to remain (be preserved) that are damaged / killed as a result of construction activities are subject to replacement per the City of Arden Hills Tree Replacement penalty. Replacement trees are to be paid for at no additional expense to the Owner. LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS Al MINIMUM CALIPER INCHES REQUIRED 128.0 IN = 41,e805F/320 MINIMUM CALIPER INCHES PROVIDED: 0" EX.

Maintenance: 1) Mow (6-8 inches) - every 30 days after planting until September 30. 2) Weed Control - mowing should help control annual weeds. Spot spray thistles etc. Establishment (fall seeding): 1) Prepare site - Late August - early September. 2) Seed - late September to freeze-up. Maintenance (following season): 1) Mow (6-8 inches) - once in May, June and July. 2) Weed Control - mowing should keep annual weeds down. Spot spray thistles etc. Evaluation: 1) Cover crop growing within 2 weeks of planting (except dormant plantings) 2) Seedlings spaced 1-6 inches apart in drill rows. 3) Native grass seedlings may only be 4-6 inches tall. 4) If there is a flush of growth from foxtail etc., mow as necessary. Year Maintenance: 1) Mow (6-8 inches) one time between June 1 - August 15 before weeds set seed. 2) Weed Control - mowing should keep annual weeds down. Spot spray thistles etc 3) Some sites may not require much maintenance the second year. Evaluation: 1) Cover crop will be gone unless winter wheat was used in a fall planting. 2) Grasses forming clumps 1-6 inches apart in drill rows, but still short. 3) Some flowers should be blooming (black-eyed Susans, bergamot etc.). 4) If there is a flush of growth from foxtail etc., mow site. Year 3 Maintenance: 1) Mow only if necessary. 3) Weed Control - Spot spray thistles, etc. 4) Sites usually do not require much maintenance the third year. Evaluation: 1) Planting should begin looking like a prairie - tall grasses, flowers etc. Long-term Maintenance: 1) Weed Control - Spot spray thistles etc. 2) Burning (3-5 year rotation) altemate spring and fall if possible. 3) Haying (3-5 year rotation) late summer or early fall. Alternate with burning (may substitute for burning). 4) Burning two years in a row will really "clean up" rough -looking sites. Seeding Installation Method: Method 1. Drop Seeding Onto Tilled Sites This is the "standard" method for seeding on prepared sites such as those on construction projects. A) Site Preparation - The site should be prepared by loosening topsoil to a minimum depth of 3 inches. B) Fertilizer- Use a fertilizer analysis based on a soil test or a general recommendation is a 10-10-10 (NPK) commercial grade analysis at 200 Ibs/acre. C) Seed Installation - Seed should be installed with a drop seeder that will accurately meter the types of seed to be planted, keep all seeds uniformly mixed during the seeding and contain drop seed tubes for seed placement (Brillion -type). The drop seeder should be equipped with a cultipacker assembly to ensure seed -to -soil contact. D) Seeding Rates . Rates are specified in the mixture tabulation for the specked mix. E) Packing - If the drop seeder is not equipped with a cultipacker, the site should be cultipacked following the seeding to ensure seed -to -soil contact.

The seven - member board of directors is comprised of members from the cities of Arden Hills, North Oaks, and Shoreview as well as three members of the LJFD fire department. The need for this station was determined through a long-range planning study in 2018 which found that the department is lacking sufficient training, administrative, and operating space, and that response times in southern Arden Hills and Shoreview are slower due to the current station 140 location on Victoria Street in Shoreview, directly north of a rail line, effectively cutting off response times. The proposed location for this new facility is ideal as it improves access for emergency vehicles and improves response times to the service area. This project is a high priority for each of the three cities as it provides necessary lifesaving resources to serve the community. The funding for this important project will primarily be through local tax dollars. The estimated cost is $23,000,000; an allocation from the State of Minnesota of $6,370,000 has been committed as they recognize the regional importance of this facility. Applications have been made for federal funding which will be determined sometime in 2024. The remaining costs will be paid for by the cities as allocated by the funding calculation. Due to the significant impact on tax payers, it is requested that the City of Arden Hills waive any possible fees, especially park dedication fees as this use will not add any burden to the Arden Hills parks and trails system. Any reduction in fees is a direct reduction to tax payers. It is the request of the LJFD Board of Directors that the Planning Commission and City Council consider this review necessary public infrastructure and that you provide your highest level of support for such an important and impactful public use.

To: David Swearington, Lucas Miller, and Jessica Jagoe From: Derrik Mills cc: Tina York Date: 7/08/24 Re: 3535 Pine Tree Dr. Lake Johanna Fire Department HQ Traffic Study Determination Attn, Based on the Ramsey County Public Work's Local Government Development Guide, a traffic impact study is required when a proposed development generates 100 peak hour trips or 1000 total daily trips. The proposed project is a 41,000 square -foot building that will serve as a fire station, replacing the existing Fire Station 4, and headquarters for the department. Using the land use code for a Fire and Rescue Station (575) from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip General Manual, 111" Edition, it is estimated that there will be 20 PM peak hour trips (6 inbound trips and 14 outbound trips). The ITE Trip Generation Manual does not have rates in the AM peak hour. It is estimated that this project will not generate more than 100 peak hour trips and a traffic impact study is not required. PC AGENDA ITEM — 3A ,-AI�EN�HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: July 10, 2024 TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #24-009 — Public Hearing Required Applicant: Lake Johanna Fire Department Property Location: 3535 Pine Tree Drive Request: Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review Requested Action Lake Johanna Fire Department ("The Applicant") is requesting a Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review for a proposed project on 3535 Pine Tree Drive ("Subject Property"). The proposal consists of construction of a 41,000 square foot Headquarters Fire Station facility that will house administrative staff as well as a response crew and includes training facilities for the Department. Background 1. Overview of Request The Applicant has submitted a land use application for Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review, proposing to develop a 3.7-acre site located at 3535 Pine Tree Drive. The Subject Property is currently owned by the Applicant. The Applicant is proposing to build a two-story fire station Headquarters facility of approximately 41,000 square feet with a training facility and training tower. The Lake Johanna Fire Department provides public fire and medical emergency response services to the Cities of Arden Hills, North Oaks, and Shoreview. The Applicant currently operates out of three stations, the proposed project would replace Station 4 located at 3615 Victoria Street in Shoreview and become the Headquarters for the Department. The Applicant is planning for construction of the new Headquarters facility to begin in 2025. The Headquarters Fire Station facility will consists of offices for five (5) full time staff members that would maintain typical Monday through Friday 8 to 5 business hours. The fire station will have a crew of three (3) Firefighters on duty 24/7 to respond to fire and emergency medical service (EMS) calls. 2. History of the Subject Property Page 1 of 15 In 2013, Bethel University purchased the property at 2 Pine Tree Drive to use the existing office building for higher education. This location is known as the Anderson Center campus. In 2020, Bethel University subdivided the approximate 43 acre site into three (3) parcels known as the 2 Pine Tree North plat. The Applicant purchased Lot 2 Block 1 of that plat in 2020. The other lot as part of this plat is now the location of New Perspective Senior Living. During the platting process, the Applicant was conducting their due diligence on the potential for acquiring the Subject Property. In 2018, the Applicant had completed a study that determined the need for a new Fire Station to be built on a site that could support the communities and their needs over "the next 50 years". It was determined that at a minimum the Department needed at least three (3) acres. This study also noted the future Fire Station should include six (6) drive through bays and living/sleeping quarters. The new Fire Station would then because of size and equipment housed would transition to become the new Headquarters Station and include necessary operational and training functions. The Department is currently overseen by a Board of Directors, the Board ("Board") consists of City representatives (one (1) Arden Hills rep, one (1) North Oaks rep, and two (2) Shoreview reps) and three (3) members from the Department. The Board is responsible for an array of Page 2 of 15 duties, such as, reviewing policies, approving long range plans and approving operating and capital budgets. In 2021, the Cities of Arden Hills, North Oaks, and Shoreview entered into a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) for the purposes of acquiring and constructing improvements on property that was to be identified for the new Headquarters. The Applicant purchased the Subject Property in 2021 due to the location being ideal to improve access for emergency vehicles and improve response times to the service area. As part of the land use application, the Applicant has included a letter of support from the Board for advancement of this project to meet the service needs of the public. It is agreed upon as part of the JPA that the Applicant will transfer ownership of the Subject Property to the Lake Johanna Fire Department Headquarters JPA. Approvals 1. Planned Unit Development A Planned Unit Development (PUD) is required for all new development and redevelopment in the B-2 Zoning District. In addition, a PUD would allow for performance standard flexibility. This proposal involves both the initial Master Plan PUD and the Final PUD. Architectural Plan 2. Conditional Use Permit In the B-2 Zoning District, a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) is required for Public Use. The Cities of Arden Hills, North Oaks, and Shoreview contract with the Lake Johanna Fire Department to provide emergency response services for Fire and EMS calls to the public. The City refers to the Lake Johanna Fire Department in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan under Chapter 13, Public Facilities, Services, and Infrastructure. A conditional use is allowed if the landowner meets the general and specific standards set forth in the zoning ordinance. City Code 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 and the community, in general, including but not limited to the following factors: Existing and anticipated traffic and parking conditions; The Applicant has provided as part of their submission a site plan of adjacent roads to identify fire response vehicle travel patterns will be north on Pine Tree Drive to the nearby controlled intersections. The Applicant has stated that the only exception to this northerly route will be to respond to emergencies in the Hunters Park Condos, Hunters Park neighborhood, or Catholic United building. Their narrative states that traffic pre- emption will control the nearby intersections for the emergency vehicle, making it safer for the firefighters and the public. Page 3 of 15 The Headquarters facility will consists of offices for five (5) full time staff members and would maintain typical Monday through Friday 8 to 5 business hours. The fire station will have a crew of three (3) Firefighters on duty 24/7 to respond to fire and EMS calls. The use of the facility for the 24/7 staffing of station crew is not anticipated to generate enough consistent traffic during peak or non peak hours to require any traffic control changes. A traffic study was not prepared as part of the application and may be waived by the City Council as part of the PUD. The Applicant has stated that based on their current call volume, they anticipate that this station would respond to around 2, 000 calls annually. The Consultant Engineer for the City has stated "it is not estimated that this project will generate more than 100 peak hour trips and a traffic study is not required. " 2. Noise, glare, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air pollution, heat, liquid or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics; The narrative states that fire trucks leaving the station to respond to emergency calls will turn on their flashing emergency lights which will capture the traffic signal at Pine Tree and County Road E. After pulling forward out of the station, trucks will make a left turn to the north on Pine Tree Drive. As they approach County Road E, they will activate their sirens, and turn to the west or east as needed. 3. Drainage; The proposed site plan does not negatively impact drainage on adjacent properties and the Applicant has stormwater management onsite that is intended to meet the quantity and quality standards. The Application is currently being reviewed by the Public Works Director/City Engineer and will go through the Rice Creek Watershed approval process. 4. Population density; The Subject Property is guided as Community Mixed Use (CMU) in the 2040 Future Land Use Plan. The area is designated for a broad range of retail, shopping, services, and office space to meet the needs of the community and surrounding areas. The expected share of uses within this area are as follows: 10% to 50% Light Industrial; 10% to 70% Retail; 10% to 70% Office; and 10% to 50% Residential. A development intensity of up to 0.8 FAR maybe allowed. The Applicant is proposing a two-story 41, 000 square foot building that equals 0.25 FAR on the Subject Property. 5. Visual and land use compatibility with uses and structures on surrounding land; The proposed building materials will meet the B-2 preferred material requirement as identified in the Design Standards. The Architect for the project notes that a cantilevered canopy visually announces that this is the public entrance to the facility and the site features a plaza and flag display at the entry for visual structures. The Applicant has stated in their narrative that historically Fire Departments are very good neighbors and that two of the other stations are adjacent to residential land uses, schools and day cares. 6. Adjoining land values; The proposed development is not anticipated to negatively impact adjacent property values. 7. Park dedications where applicable; The Development Agreement for the 2 Pine Tree North plat indicated that Park Dedication required for Lots 1 and 2 will be determined by the City at the time of future development and will be memorialized in development agreements for those lots. The Page 4 of 15 Applicant as part of this application is requesting the City waive the Public Use Dedications including the Park Dedication Fee. As part of their submittal, the Board has provided a letter of support for the Applicant's request. The Applicant and Board have received State of Minnesota funding for this project and applications have been made for federal funding. Funding for this Lake Johanna Fire Department Headquarters Station will primarily be through local tax dollars. 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 Lake Johanna Fire Department Headquarters Fire Station proposed facility at 3535 Pine Tree Drive is consistent with the purpose and intent with the policies within the City's Comprehensive Plan, the B-2 Zoning District and Guiding Plan for the B-2 District.

Design Standards - Section 1325.05 and 1325.055 A. Building Design — Flexibility Requested Page 5of15 Section 1325.05 Subd. 8, E of the Arden Hills City Code states "the arrangement, massing, materials and colors shall work to create a high quality development that is responsive to existing buildings, site features, and site design on adjoining sites in the district." There are seven (7) evaluators for building design with one of those stating that at least fifty percent (50%) of the largest building on each site shall be constructed at the front setback line." The other evaluators to consider in review of the building design are that fagade treatments shall be carried around all sides, avoid long unbroken expanses and to create visual interest from the street, awnings and overhangs shall be provided at the primary entryway, any multi -level building shall distinguish the ground floor level from the upper floors. Architectural plans are included in Attachment E. The Applicant is proposing a two-story building of approximately 41,000 square feet for their Headquarters facility. The front lot line is Pine Tree Drive and the front setback line is at 50 feet. The Applicant's site plan shows the building would be constructed at approximately 90 feet. Site Plan / C7 \ i NEW FIRE n� m� f STATION � C i (Z) PAVING PINE TREE DRIVE B. Exterior Materials — Meets Requirements At least seventy-five (75) percent of the exterior building materials should be made of brick masonry, tile masonry, natural stone or its synthetic equivalent, decorative concrete plank, transparent glass or any combination thereof. Trim and other accent or decorative features may be metal, wood, split faced block, EIFS, or stucco. Metals shall have a matte finish and have visible corner moldings and trim when used on exterior walls. Undesirable materials include simulated brick, vinyl or aluminum siding, sheet or corrugated metal siding, plain concrete blocks or panels, brightly colored metal roofing or canopies, pre -cast tilt -up walls, and mirrored or reflective glass. Building colors shall be muted. Recommended colors include browns, grays, tans, beiges, and dark or muted green, blues, and reds. Bright or brilliant colors and sharply contrasting colors may be used for only accent purposes occupying a maximum of five percent (5%) of building facades. The Planning Commission should evaluate the architectural style and building character based on the quality of its design and on its relationship to its surroundings. Site characteristics to be evaluated for this purpose include, but are not limited to, building and landscaping materials, Page 6of15 colors, textures, shapes, massing, building components, height, roof -line, and setback. A full plan set of building elevations is included as Attachment E. Planning Staff has provided the review below on building materials and transparency as shared by the Applicant in order for the Planning Commission to attain a better understanding of the full scope of their project design. The proposed building complies with building materials consisting of brick, glass, or metal trim on all elevations. The transparency requirements for new developments within the B-2 Zoning District have been considered in the window placement and design for the fire station facility. Section 1325.05, Subd. 8, F. states that fifty percent (50%) of all first level building fagades that front a public street shall be comprised of transparent windows or doors in order to allow views of interior uses and activities. The following table shows the breakdown of materials for the fire station: Required Proposed Other Required Proposed Proposed Preferred Preferred Materials Transparency Transparency Transparency Materials Materials *first level *full elevation East 75% 95% 5% 50% 57% 46% (front) Fagade North 75% 94% 6% N/A 23% 10% Fagade South 75% 97% 3% N/A 5% 4% Fagade West 75% 15% 15% N/A 15% 10% Fagade The buildings design has fagade stepping and a variation in rooflines as viewed from all elevations. The Applicant has noted that they have incorporated many "Green Building" sustainable design features in this project. As noted in the application materials, the Applicant began the efforts for studying the Department needs and designing this project back in 2018. This project is intended to meet their needs for "the next 50 years" and will provide for the administrative, operational (i.e. Headquarters), apparatus bays, and training facility. This facility will be used for classroom and hands-on training both inside the training room and outside. There could be groups ranging from 10-40 firefighters in attendance a few times each week. The four (4) story training tower on the west (rear) side of the building will use non -toxic fire props, theatrical smoke machines and will also be used for ladder training and rope rescue training. The fire station project with the proposed design has received State funding towards future construction. As part of their design process in 2020/21, the Applicant shared schematic "artist's views" of their project plans and renderings with each City Council for feedback. This information was used as part of their due diligence prior to preparation of their project bid documents which have been finalized. The Applicant has submitted to the City for the land use approval prior to applying for construction permits. Page 7of15 Rendering of West (rear) and South Elevations C. Lighting — Meets Requirements The Zoning Code requires exterior lighting to be consistent in type, design, scale, and color to create unity in the Districts. Exterior lighting for parking lots and buildings shall not be excessive and shall be directed at their intended purposes. Any light or combination of lights shall not cast light that exceeds a meter reading of one (1) foot candle on the travel lanes of adjoining public streets or 0.4 foot candles on adjoining residential property. The proposed plan includes LED fixtures for area lights at a maximum of 30 feet to the top of the fixture, a monument sign and flag pole light, and then soffit lighting above the doorways/entry on the building. The proposed lighting is consistent with the use and the surrounding area. The Applicant has submitted a photometric plan that identifies the types of light fixtures and quantities. The Subject Property is not adjacent to a residential property. The photometric plan shows that proposed lighting will not exceed a meter reading of one (1) foot candle on the travel lanes on Pine Tree Drive. As a condition of approval, all lighting shall be downward directed shoebox style with flush lenses. Details about the proposed lighting are found in Attachment F. D. Screening — Meets Requirements Screens and fencing help minimize adverse impacts of public nuisances, such as noise. Trash and recycling equipment, materials, and containers shall be fully enclosed and integrated into the architecture of the buildings. All mechanical equipment, whether roof -mounted or ground - mounted should be integrated into the architecture of the building. It shall be completely screened from the ground -level view of adjacent properties and public streets. There is a generator, electrical transformer, and trash enclosure located on the rear of the building that are screened by the building to the public street. The trash enclosure will feature metal trash enclosure gates and is constructed with brick consistent with the building design. The Page 8 of 15 Applicant did not include roof plans or associated building sections to illustrate all roof -mounted mechanical equipment is screened. Planning staff has included a condition recommending that all rooftop or ground mounted mechanical equipment shall be hidden from view with the same materials used on the building in accordance with City Code requirements. E. Landscaping — Flexibility Requested Section 1320.06 — District Requirements Chart of the City Code requires a minimum landscape lot area of 20% or 32,234 square feet for the Subject Property in the B-2 Zoning District. The Applicant is proposing a landscape lot area of approximately 34% percent or 55,835 square feet. Additionally, at least 10% or 3,223 square feet of the total landscaped area (i.e. 32,234 square feet) shall be covered with perennials and/or shrubbery. The Applicant is proposing perennial and/or shrubbery of approximately 9% or 2,926 square feet. Planting islands shall occupy 10% or 2,346 square feet of the parking area (i.e. 23,465 square feet). The plans show the provided planting islands are covering approximately 10.5% or 2,459 square of the parking area. The site contains 984 caliper inches of significant trees. Section 1325.055 Subd. 5 allows for the removal of fewer than ten (10) percent of the caliper inches of significant trees on the property without requiring mitigation. Ten percent of 984 is 98.4 caliper inches. The Applicant proposes removing 984 caliper inches of trees, meaning the Applicant is responsible for mitigation of 886 caliper inches removed above 10 percent. Per Section 1325.055 Subd. 6, the number of caliper inches of trees required for replanting is determined at a rate of 1:2 or one (1) inch replaced for every two (2) inches lost. Existing 10% of Proposed Inches in Required Proposed Existing Removal excess of 10% Replacement Re lacement 984 caliper 98.4 caliper 984 caliper 886 caliper 443 caliper 48 caliper inches inches inches inches inches inches The Applicant is seeking flexibility for the required replacement of 443 caliper inches based on the total inches removed and the rate of replacement due to the need to maintain exiting sightlines for the firefighters when they leave for a call. The Applicant has noted the landscaping plan includes an abundance of plantings and is proposing to plant 48 caliper inches on site. The Applicant's Tree Preservation Plan (Sheet L101) for the landscaping requirements table indicates a proposed 128 caliper inches to be provided.

Recommend Approval as Submitted 3. Recommend Denial 4. Table Chair Weber opened the floor to Commissioner comments. Commissioner Bjorklund asked if the property would be going from 984 caliper inches of trees on the property to 48 caliper inches. Community Development Director Jagoe reported this was the case. Commissioner Bjorklund questioned if the City had a stormwater maintenance plan for this project. Community Development Director Jagoe stated the City Engineer has not received a plan to date. She explained this plan would be filed and reviewed with the City Engineer. Commissioner Erler asked why the building was placed 90 feet back instead of 50 feet. Fire Chief Tim Boehlke explained the reason for the larger setback was to allow for the trucks to be utilized for training purposes outside the front of the building. Commissioner Erler reported residents of the adjacent senior living community requested that the mature trees on the property be retained. He requested the Fire Chief speak to the proposed tree loss. Fire Chief Boehlke reported he has spoken to the residents on the adjacent property. He explained the trees that were being taken down had to be removed to accommodate the proposed building and paved area. Commissioner Erler questioned if trees would be planted somewhere else or was this not being considered by the City. Community Development Director Jagoe stated the Ordinance would require the applicant to replace trees onsite, find a suitable location offsite, or make a payment in lieu of tree plantings. She explained in this case the Fire Department does not have an offsite location identified, but the payment in lieu of fee was a landscaping fee that would be used by the City for maintenance and/or plantings. She indicated the Fire Department was asking that the payment in lieu of fee be waived as part of the PUD review. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 5 Commissioner Erler reported if the fee were charged, this would be another expense that would fall on Arden Hills taxpayers. Chair Weber asked what the fee the Applicant was requesting to be waived would be. Community Development Director Jagoe stated she did not have an estimate but reported a couple caliper inch tree may be estimated to cost $400 to $500 plus the fee would need to include the cost for installation, plus 10%. Chair Weber reported the fee that was being waived would be substantial. He explained the City Council recently voted to not maintain the trees along Old Highway 10. Councilmember Rousseau indicated the shrubs in this area would not be maintained and staff was looking into a sprinkler system for the trees in this area. Chair Weber commented on how the landscaping fee loss would be born completely by the City of Arden Hills. He was of the opinion the City needed a portion of this fee in order to properly maintain the trees in the community. Commissioner Bjorklund commented on the contour lines within the site plan stating 30% of the property was within a flood zone. He understood this would be reduced to 15% through the water retention plans. He explained the footing for the building would be five feet above the floodplain. He questioned if these plans had been studied enough to ensure the building elevation was high enough to ensure it does not flood. Fire Chief Boehlke explained he was working with the City Engineer and the watershed district on this project. He then deferred this question to the project architect. Mod Feders, architect for the project, introduced himself to the Commission. He reported Rice Creek Watershed has to approve the proposed site plans. He discussed how the City requires completed drawings by a civil engineer for watershed review. He indicated these plans were provided to the watershed district and after receiving City approval, the next step would be to receive approval of these plans with the watershed district. Commissioner Bjorklund stated he was very concerned with the loss of trees on this property. Mr. Fetters explained he worked to save as many trees as possible, but stated the proposed trees loss was necessary in order to accommodate the fire station and surrounding paved areas for the maneuverability of the vehicles. Commissioner Bjorklund commented on the stringent tree regulations that have been upheld by the City and discussed how Arden Hills worked to remain a heavily forested community. While he admired what the architect was doing, he believed that the tree loss on this site was too significant. He stated he would not vote to approve this proposal unless more trees were saved. In addition, he encouraged the architect to reconsider where the proposed trees were being planted because they were within the 100 year floodplain. Chair Weber asked if the waiving the tree mitigation fee in lieu of was a condition for approval. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 6 Community Development Director Jagoe stated the Lake Johanna Fire Department was asking for flexibility to be able to replace the 48 caliper inches of trees. She reported if there was a recommendation to waive the fee, this could be made a condition for approval. She explained at this time the applicant would be required meet City ordinance, which would require replacement to the full or flexibility for the 48 inches or other variation of an offsite location for the remainder of the caliper inches, or payment in lieu of. Chair Weber opened the public hearing at 7:28 p.m. Chair Weber invited anyone for or against the application to come forward and make comment. Community Development Director Jagoe distributed to the Planning Commission a public comment received via email that was submitted to the City in advance of the meeting. There being no in -person comment Chair, Weber closed the public hearing at 7:28 p.m. Chair Weber reviewed each of the Applicant's requests for flexibility in further detail. Chair Weber commented on the building setback and asked if anyone had any concerns regarding the proposed 90 foot setback. There was no opposition. Chair Weber requested comment regarding the landscaping plan, noting the proposed tree removal would bring the site from 984 caliper inches down to 48 caliper inches. Commissioner Bjorklund suggested the 48 caliper inches be increased to at least 200 caliper inches. Chair Weber supported the applicant being responsible for replacing two thirds of the caliper inches. He believed the City needed these trees or funding to maintain the current trees in the community. Commissioner Mitchell commented the property was 3+ acres of undeveloped land and a large portion has trees on it. She discussed how difficult it would be to construct a building on this site without losing some trees. She stated if the City were to demand keeping more trees, she anticipated the fire station would not be able to be developed on this property. She indicated this land was chosen because it was central and provided good access to the City of Arden Hills. She reported a large portion of the land would be taken up by the building along with paved area for parking. She suggested the City encourage the applicant to plant as many trees as possible, but recommended the City not require the applicant to keep half the trees, because the fire station won't fit. Chair Weber stated he understood the trees would come down, but he wanted to see trees planted elsewhere or for the payment in lieu of the trees to be made to the City, which was required of every other development in the City. Commissioner Mitchell questioned if this new fire station would be replacing another fire station. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 7 Fire Chief Boehlke reported this station would be replacing the existing station at Victoria and County Road E. Commissioner Mitchell inquired if additional trees could be planted on this site. Fire Chief Boehlke explained the City of Shoreview owned the Fire Station #4 property. He stated the fire department could opt to pay the fee in lieu of planting more trees. He indicated he was not against trees and noted the department has spent a great deal of time planning for the new fire station. He commented he would plant as many trees as possible on this property. He stated there wasn't another location for the fire station, nor would the project get any cheaper. He explained the request for flexibility was to try and minimize taxpayer cost. Commissioner Mitchell asked if this PUD could be structured in such a way that the other cities could be asked to pay for trees. Community Development Director Jagoe commented all of the project costs would be split between Shoreview, Arden Hills and North Oaks. Fire Chief Boehlke indicated Shoreview would pay 6 1 % of the project costs, North Oaks would pay 14% and Arden Hills would pay 25%. He explained the fire department secured $6.3 million from the State of Minnesota and additional federal dollars were being pursued to assist with the expense of the project. Chair Weber stated his concern was with the fact Shoreview and North Oaks would not be taking a loss on the trees, but rather this loss would be felt by the City of Arden Hills. He stated he would like to see the tree replacement required to be somewhere around 66%. Commissioner Bjorklund reported this would require the applicant to plant 300 caliper inches of trees. Commissioner Erler explained he understood this project had to move forward, but he suggested the City apply the ordinance as written and that the City pay its fair share and that North Oaks and Shoreview be required to pay their fair share. He recommended the loss be shared between the three cities. Commissioner Stromberg believed a lot of great points had been shared. She indicated she was sympathetic to the residents at New Perspective that would lose trees in their area, but she supported the project moving forward without the City being forced to pay for more trees. Commissioner Bjorklund anticipated the applicant could install larger trees onsite and in order to meet the 300 caliper inches and the building plans could move forward as proposed. Commissioner Mitchell stated she was uncertain if it would be possible to plant 300 caliper inches on the fire station property. Commissioner Bjorklund commented he was also uncertain if this would be possible, but noted he wanted to see more trees on this property. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 8 Commissioner Erler explained he agreed with Commissioner Mitchell, stating the Commission did not have enough information to understand if 300 caliper inches of trees would even fit on this property. Chair Weber stated the Commission was making a recommendation on how many caliper inches should be included in the landscaping plan. Community Development Director Jagoe discussed how the landscape architects assist with designing and spacing the trees for the project. Commissioner Mitchell suggested the Commission recommend to the City Council the number of trees on the site be maximized. Commissioner Blilie stated she would support this recommendation. Chair Weber asked how the Commission wanted to proceed regarding the flexibility for tree mitigation. Commissioner Stromberg supported allowing the flexibility in full. Commissioner Erler reported he supported the ordinance being applied in full and did not support the flexibility. Commissioner Bjorklund stated he preferred the flexibility allow for 300 caliper inches instead of 48 caliper inches. Chair Weber supported this recommendation. Commissioner Blilie supported the flexibility as written. Commissioner Mitchell explained she could support the flexibility as well, but recommended the landscaping plans be updated. Chair Weber asked if Commissioner Mitchell could support the planting of 300 caliper inches. Commissioner Mitchell indicated she could support this so long as the plantings were done in a sound manner. Commissioner Erler and Commissioner Blilie stated they could support the 300 caliper inches as well. Chair Weber asked if the 54 parking stalls was sufficient for this project. The Commission supported the proposed parking as requested. Chair Weber questioned if the Commission supported the proposed width of the driveway. The Commission supported the proposed driveway width. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 9 Chair Weber stated he understood the applicant would amend the plans to conform with City Code for the proposed sign. Chair Weber inquired how the Commission wanted to deal with the shortfall on the transparency. The Commission supported the transparency shortfall as is within the plans. Commissioner Erler moved and Commissioner Biorklund seconded a motion to recommend approval of Planning Case 24-009 for a Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review at 3535 Pine Tree Drive, based on the findings of fact and the submitted plans, as amended by the conditions in the July 10, 2024 Report to the Planning Commission, adding Condition 18 to read: All items identified in the June 27, 2024 PW/Engineering Division memo shall be addressed. All comments shall be adopted herein by reference.; and adding Condition 19 to read: The Applicant shall follow city code accordingly for tree mitigation of 300 caliper inches. Community Development Director Jagoe questioned how the Commission wanted to address the public use dedication fee. Chair Weber questioned if staff had a range for this payment. Community Development Director Jagoe indicated she does not have a range for this project payment, but noted this payment would be split between the three cities and would be paid at the time of building permit application. Commissioner Mitchell commented on the trails that would be lost if this project were to move forward. Chair Weber stated he did not support putting the brakes on this project over the loss of these trails. Commissioner Erler discussed how the fire station would be a public use and therefore he could support the waiver of this fee. Fire Chief Boehlke explained park dedication fees were based on a percentage of the finished value of the project. He stated it was a significant amount of money. He requested the City not require a park dedication fee because the fire station would serve a public purpose. Chair Weber questioned if the development agreement for this property delayed the payment of a park dedication fee. Community Development Director Jagoe stated the development agreement for the 2 North Pine Tree Plat references that the City will consider the public use dedication fee at the time of future development for Lots 1 and 2. Commissioner Bjorklund asked what the fire department paid for this land. Fire Chief Boehlke explained the fire department paid $1.675 million for the land. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 10 Commissioner Bjorklund indicated he could support the waiver of the park dedication fee because this project was for the public good. Chair Weber commented on how the City would be taking a significant loss on this project. He discussed how the City was struggling to find funding for its own public trails. He stated he was not comfortable with the loss the City would be taking. He expressed frustration with the fact Bethel University had not paid the park dedication fees for this land. Commissioner Blilie stated she was uncomfortable requiring the fire department pay the park dedication fees, especially given the fact Bethel should have been responsible. Commissioner Mitchell indicated she was comfortable with waiving the park dedication fees given the fact the fire station would be a public benefit. Commissioner Bjorklund anticipated because Bethel University sold the land to the Fire Department, they got out of paying the park dedication fee. He did not support claiming the park dedication fee from the fire department. Chair Weber discussed how the funding would not come from the fire department, but rather would be paid by the cities of Shoreview and North Oaks, with a small portion coming from Arden Hills. Given the history of this project, he indicated he could forego the payment of the park dedication fees. Motion amendment moved by Commissioner Mitchell, seconded by Commissioner Bjorklund, to add Condition 20 to read: The Public Use Dedication/Park Dedication fee be waived for future development of Lot 2, Block 1 of the 2 Pine Tree North plat. The amended motion carried unanimously (6-0). B.

Planning Case 24-009 — Lake Johanna Fire Department 'It -AI�EN HILLS 22 PUBLIC HEARING -10B lt �-REN�HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: July 22, 2024 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #24-014 — Public Hearing Required Applicant: Rose Kukwa Property Location: 3776 Connelly Avenue Request: Zoning Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review Council Should Consider the Following: Hold the required public hearing for Planning Case 24-014, an application from Rose Kukwa ("The Applicant") for a Zoning Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review to redevelop the existing approximately 11,000 square foot commercial building as an event center and restaurant on the property at 3776 Connelly Avenue ("Subject Property"). The proposal includes a request to allow the use of an Event Center in the B-2 General Business Zoning District, to serve alcohol and food through a State licensed caterer of liquor and food, and for renovations to the exterior of the building. The City Council will be asked to make a formal decision regarding the application under Agenda Item 11B. Background 1.Overview of Request The Applicant has submitted a land use application for a Zoning Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review to redevelop the existing approximately 11,000 square foot commercial building on the property at 3776 Connelly Avenue. The Subject Property is currently owned by Standout Properties, LLC and the building is occupied by the Northern Lights Bingo Hall and Bright Side Cafe. The Applicant is proposing to renovate the existing building and resurface the parking lot. The Applicant is proposing a phased development with the event center established in Phase I and restaurant and adult day care uses to be established in Phase II and Phase III, respectively. The Applicant is seeking review and approval for Phases I and II at this time. Page 1 of 23 The Applicant presented a concept review at the City Council Work session on March 11, 2024. Councilmembers provided feedback on the existing parking lot, landscaping, on -site parking, as well as the process for serving liquor. This commercial corridor is accessible by way of County Road E West. This area is used by a number of small and large businesses for a variety of retail, manufacturing, distribution, warehousing, and office uses. 2. History of the Subject Property The Subject Property was constructed in 1956 and originally utilized as a lumber yard. It was later redeveloped in 1986 as a bingo hall consisting of the approximately 11,000 square foot principal structure. A site plan review was required for this development as the property had previously been used as a lumber site. The property changed ownership in 1991 and 2020 with its continued use as a bingo hall which falls under the Commercial Recreation, Indoor land use definition in the City's Zoning Code. In 2020, the property's kitchen was remodeled and the Brightside Cafe was opened within the existing bingo hall. In 2021, the Brightside Caf6 was approved for a liquor license effective in 2022. In 2023, Northern Lights Bingo Hall ceased bingo game operations and the Subject Property started to be used for organized sports, which also falls under the definition of a Commercial Recreation, Indoor land use with the installation of turf for the rental use of soccer clubs for practices. A liquor license for the Brightside Caf6 was maintained through the end of 2023 but was not renewed for 2024. Approvals 1. Zoning Code Amendment The Applicant is proposing to use the property as an Event Center. Currently, the city code is absent of land use language permitting an Event Center use or establishing standards for the development or operation of an event center within any zoning district. To allow this land use, the City's Zoning Code would need to be amended to add a definition for an Event Center and to designate this type of land use within a zoning district. The proposed Event Center would not be permitted without a zoning code amendment. As part of the land use application, the Applicant has proposed for the use of an event center to be allowed in the B-2 General Business Zoning District through a conditional use permit. The Applicant has stated that the addition of an event center as a conditional use in the B-2 Zoning District aligns with the districts purpose of accommodating commercial activities that serve the local community. The other approvals noted in the land use application would not be applicable unless the Event Center use is permitted within the B-2 General Business Zoning District. 2. Planned Unit Development A Planned Unit Development (PUD) is required for all new development and redevelopment in the B-2 Zoning District. In addition, a PUD would allow for performance standard flexibility. This proposal involves both the initial Master Plan PUD and the Final PUD for Phase I and II. Under the PUD Master Plan, the Applicant shall provide details for each stage of development, but would be required to seek the PUD Final Plan approval of Phase III at the time of establishing the future Page 2 of 23 use of an adult day care. The Applicant has provided details in the Architectural Plans (Attachment G) which identifies how the Subject Property would be utilized in Phase I as an event center, Phase II as a restaurant, and Phase III as an adult day care. The City Council should consider the different phases of development while considering the Master and Final PUD as proposed in this application. In this application, the Applicant is seeking approval for Phase I, the event center, and Phase II, which includes the restaurant. The Applicant states in the narrative that Phase II would begin immediately after the completion of Phase I for the event center with the restaurant being operational once a liquor license is obtained.

Conditional Use Permit The Applicant is proposing that in the B-2 Zoning District, a Conditional Use Permit is required for an event center. Typical factors to consider in the evaluation of the CUP request may be hours of operation, potential noise from the proposed use, lights from vehicles, and on -site traffic. The Applicant is proposing all events will be held inside the building to contain noise within the venue and their request includes supplementary materials related to a security plan and traffic considerations. City Code 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 and the community, 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. Other Approvals As part of the land use application, the Applicant is proposing an amendment to the City Code to add an event center as a type of business licensed in Arden Hills and to allow for the on -sale liquor sales at an event center through a state licensed caterer. These amendments are proposed in Chapter 3 and 5 of the City Code which establish business licensing and the standards for alcoholic beverages in the City, respectively. Due to State Statute, an event center cannot hold a liquor license. The Applicant has stated in their narrative that in Phase I of the redevelopment, the proposed event center would provide food and alcohol services through caterers with State Licenses. As part of Phase II, the Applicant intends to open the restaurant and to obtain a city liquor license for the restaurant to enhance the dining experience and complement event catering. The Applicant notes that while the intent for Phase II is to operate the restaurant on the property to serve both food and alcohol, with alcohol being provided after obtaining a City approved on - sale liquor license, there could be occasions that external catering is utilized to accommodate specific culinary preferences. Allowing the proposed event center to serve alcohol with a State licensed caterer of food and alcohol would provide for more flexible and inclusive services. City Code text amendments to Chapter 3 and 5 would be brought forward by staff to the City Council at a subsequent meeting following the decision on the land use review portion of this application. Zoning Code Text Amendments Page 4 of 23 The purpose of the B-2 General Business District is to: • Be a place in which people can live, work and play. • Create a compact, architecturally diverse, pedestrian- and bicycle -friendly community with a distinct identity. • Provide a connected sidewalk system and places for people to gather and socialize. To implement design standards to promote an attractive environment with lasting and sustainable value. • Group compatible retail and service business uses that tend to draw trade that is naturally interchangeable and promotes business prosperity. • Provide an adequate supply of businesses and professional service areas to meet the needs of the residents. • Minimize the effects of traffic congestion, noise, odor, glare and similar safety problems. According to the Applicant, the proposed ordinance amendment will support the growth and diversification of the local economy while meeting the evolving needs of the community. The Applicant references that event centers have become increasingly popular as venues for various social and corporate events and that allowing for these dedicated facilities would enhance the city's attractiveness as a destination for such gatherings. As proposed, the text amendment would define an Event Center and designate this type of land use as a conditional use in the B-2 General Business District. The Applicant has also proposed Off Street Parking Spaces Required for an Event Center use, specifying one (1) space for every three (3) seats as the required number of spaces. For the Planning Commission review, draft ordinance language was prepared based on the Applicant's narrative as well as a few other criteria suggested by staff (based on a survey of neighboring communities) for "Event Center" language within Sections 1305.04 Definitions, 1320.05 Land Use Chart, 1320.085 Special Requirements for the B- 2 General Business District, and 1325.06 Requirements for Parking, Loading and Circulation. Applicant's Narrative: 1) Add Event Center as a use permitted by a conditional use permit in the B-2 Zoning District in Section 1320.05 Land Use Chart. 2) Establish parking requirements for event centers at one (1) parking space per three (3) seats at design capacity in Section 1325.06 Requirements for Parking, Loading and Circulation. Additional Code Amendments to consider: 3) Add a definition for Event Center within Section 1305.04 Definitions a. Event Center: An establishment which is rented by individuals or groups to host scheduled private events including but not limited to weddings, cultural celebrations, corporate functions, and banquets. Such use may or may not include 1) kitchen facilities for the preparation or catering of food; 2) the sale of alcoholic beverages for on -premises consumption only during scheduled events and not open to the general public; and 3) outdoor gardens, patios or outdoor gathering areas. 4) Amend Section 1320.085 Special Requirements for the B-2 General Business District Page 5 of 23 a. Create a new Subdivision 6 — Event Center Additional Conditional Use Permit Criteria that establishes the requirements and criteria for a conditional use permit for Event Center as a conditional use in the B-2 Zoning District. Proposed language: A. In addition to meetingtquirements of Section 1325 and 1355.04 Subd 4, event centers shall conform to the following: 1. The occupancy of the building must never exceed the occupancy load posted based on the Fire Marshal's determination. 2. The serving of alcohol shall be subject to Minnesota State Statute and Chapter 5 - Alcoholic Beverages of the Arden Hills City Code requirements and is permitted only in conjunction with a private event that is not open to the public. 3. Licensing information from the Ramsey County Sheriff's Office may be requested by City. City could at its discretion request licensing information from the County Sheriffs Office. 4. A security plan shall be submitted and approved by the City; 5. A noise mitigation strategy shall be submitted and approved by the City_ B. In addition to meeting tquirements of Section 1325 and 1355.04 Subd 4, the City may: 1. Prohibit access from a predominantly residential street; 2. Restrict the hours of operation for loadingdocks; ocks; 3. Require greater than minimum setbacks for structures and driveways; 4. Require opaque screening to eliminate headlight glare; 5. Impose any other restriction it deems to be in the public interest. For research, staff conducted a survey of other local ordinances and found that Cities of New Brighton, Roseville, Shoreview, Little Canada and Vadnais Heights have language that allows for similar uses with a majority of communities requiring a conditional use permit in at least one commercial zoning district. Parking requirements were also reviewed and fell between one (1) space for every three (3) seats and one (1) space for every four (4) seats. Staff contacted New Brighton staff and heard that the primary concerns were proximity to residential neighborhoods and the liquor licensing of vendors. Staff has drafted special requirements for event centers language that considers these potential concerns. The City Council could suggest additional language for the requirements for an event center use related to proximity to residential neighborhoods and parking requirements. The Applicant has requested for the use of an Event Center to be allowed in the B-2 General Business Zoning District through a conditional use permit. The text amendment as drafted would add "Event Center" as a use permitted by a conditional use permit in the B-2 Zoning District and would add additional criteria to Section 1320.085 Special Requirements for the B-2 General Business District. The City Council may consider adding the Event Center use permitted by a conditional use permit to additional zoning districts. If identified as an amendment, the Special Requirements could be moved from Section 1320.085 and added to General Regulations in a new Section 1325.047 titled Event Center Additional Conditional Use Permit Criteria. The requirements would then be applicable to the zoning districts that the City Council recommends an Event Center be permitted by conditional use permit. The following are items identified by staff that the City Council may wish to discuss and consider: • Zoning Districts Page 6 of 23 • Permitted hours of operation in the ordinance. • Permitted maximum occupancy in the ordinance. • Specifying if outdoor space is permitted for an event center and if there would be additional requirements. The City Council is asked to review the drafted text amendments. A public hearing before the Planning Commission is required for an ordinance amendment to the Zoning Code and was held on July 10, 2024. At the July 10, 2024 meeting of the Planning Commission, an amendment was made to the drafted text amendments to Section 1325.06 Requirements for Parking, Loading and Circulation. The Planning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend the approval of amended language for an event center use to require one (1) parking space for every four (4) seats at designed capacity. Plan Evaluation Overview of Proposal Redevelopment The Applicant is proposing the redevelopment of the Subject Property as the Elegant Event Center. Improvements will be made to the exterior finishes of the principal structure, the parking lot, and the site's landscaping. Existing conditions for the site can be found on the site survey in Attachment E. The principal structure will remain on site with enhanced building materials and the proposed plans show the addition of a trash enclosure to the north side of the Subject Property. The parking lot improvements include the removal of the existing covered parking structure and the addition of parking islands for additional landscaping and area lighting for the parking lot. Changes to the parking lot include a removal of several existing parking spaces near the property driveway and the establishment of ADA ramps and surfaces and handicap accessible parking spaces. The Applicant states that the plan is to improve and restore both the building and the property so that it will enhance, not detract, from the surrounding area. Business Operations The Applicant is proposing that the Subject Property be used for three different uses within the same principal structure and that these uses will be established through a phased approach. The Subject Property would have an occupancy load of 567 people. The Applicant intends to cap facility capacity down further to 508 people with a 450-guest capacity for the event center, a 34 guest capacity for the restaurant, with an estimated staff team of 24 staff members for both the event center and the restaurant. The space is conceived to be shared among the uses with some overlap as noted in the evaluation below. Phase I - Event Center In Phase I, scheduled until December 2024, the building and other site improvements would be completed, and the Event Center use would be established. The proposed hours of operation for the event center are 8:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday. The Applicant is requesting City Code Amendments to be allowed to serve liquor through a licensed caterer and would propose liquor service ending at 2:00 a.m. Page 7 of 23 At the July 10, 2024 Planning Commission meeting, the Commission added Condition 19 to the recommended conditions of approval that reads "The Applicant shall be required to cease hours of operation at 2 a.m. for commercial land uses approved as part of the PUD." In the updated narrative submitted July 15, the Applicant provided details for the proposed extended hours until 3:00 a.m., noting the hours would allow the venue to accommodate varying needs and schedules of groups, have a positive economic impact on the community and benefit local businesses, and align with the site's commitment to responsible alcohol consumption management. The City Council should consider if the condition for operations to cease at 2 a.m. shall remain a condition of approval and the Applicant shall adhere to the 2 a.m. cutoff. During Phase I, the Applicant is proposing that food and liquor for the event center will be served through a caterer that holds State licenses for food and liquor. The proposed occupancy for the event center is 450 guests, which would not include event staff. The Applicant proposes that the event hall will not exceed a seating capacity of 450 guests. Contracts will specify the permitted guest capacity and Elegant Event Center will not accommodate events whose capacity is greater than 450 guests. All marketing materials, contractual agreements, and operations will reflect the 450 guest capacity in the event center. Access to the event center spaces will be provided through the doors accessible from the east elevation patio. Patrons would pass through the doors directly into the main hall space. The existing kitchen is directly adjacent to the main hall space. The main hall space has access to the existing covered patio space, which will be utilized as a designated smoking area with fencing enclosing the space from the parking lot. Other spaces in the building that could be used during an event include bride and groom suites and an office for event staff. Additional entry and exit location information can be found on the Entry Access Plan, Sheet A2.0.1 in Attachment G.

L As part of the narrative, the Applicant noted proposed plans for security and noise control. For security, the building is equipped with at least 24 security cameras around and inside the building for monitoring of all areas and there are two police panic buttons inside the building to alert local law enforcement of incidents. The Applicant is proposing that during events there will be onsite security officers to control access points to prevent unauthorized entry, ensure alcohol is not taken onto the patio area, and maintain safety conditions for attendees. Alcohol management is also noted, with a plan for strict protocols for the serving of alcohol to monitor consumption, prevent overconsumption, and ensure compliance with laws and regulations. For noise control, the Applicant proposes a plan, stating all events will be held inside the building to contain noise. Additionally, the use of concrete in the building walls can effectively soundproof and prevent noise from leaving the building, which can reduce the impact of noise on the surrounding community. Security measures will also help manage noise in outdoor areas by managing and dispersing groups that congregate outside, particularly in the designated smoking area. The Applicant is seeking approval for Phase I with this application. The City Council should consider the proposed plans for the Event Center use and the supplementary plans for security and noise management when evaluating the PUD and CUP criteria. Phase II - Restaurant In Phase II, which the Applicant notes will begin immediately after Phase I, involves opening the restaurant area. The Applicant's proposed intent is to obtain a liquor license to provide liquor service on -site once the restaurant is operational. Liquor services would be available to the restaurant as well as the event center during restaurant hours. Currently, on -sale intoxicating liquor licenses are limited to hotels, restaurant, clubs, or exclusive liquor stores. The Applicant states that while the in-house restaurant is intended to serve food and alcohol to events, the event center would on occasion work with external caterers to accommodate specific culinary preferences or cuisines that the restaurant cannot provide. The Applicant reasons that working with outside caterers will support the event center's flexibility and inclusivity of services. The restaurant would use the existing cafe footprint and the proposed restaurant occupancy capacity is 34 seats and five (5) employees to meet staffing needs. The Applicant proposes that the restaurant will use reservation technology and real-time tracking to control the flow of guests and provide wait time information. Patrons of the restaurant would access the space through the main entry which would lead them directly to the restaurant space which is not being reconfigured from the existing floor plan. The restaurant would utilize the existing on -site kitchen. In the updated narrative received on July 15, the Applicant has stated that the restaurant would be open to the public during regular business hours and while the event space is in use for private events. The Applicant provided hours of operations specific to the restaurant use, stating that the restaurant's hours of operations will be 11:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday, and 8:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. Sunday. On Friday and Saturday, kitchen services would end at 11:59 p.m. and liquor service would end at 2:00 a.m. The Applicant is seeking approval for Phase II with this application.

The Applicant is working with the Minnesota Department of Human Services to modify an existing Home and Community -Based Services license. The adult day care program would offer activities such as educational programs, arts and crafts, supervised field trips, board games, and group fitness exercise sessions. The adult day care use would use the main hall of the building and a floor plan for the use is shown below. The Applicant has stated that the event center use would not overlap with the adult day care use due to the nature of both uses using the main hall of the building. The adult day care space is shown as accessible through the main entry and the side door with access through the covered patio. The proposed occupancy is 20 service participants and four (4) staff. The proposed hours of operations for Adult Day Programs are 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday. The Applicant notes that the restaurant will be operational during the hours of the adult day care to provide lunches to the day care members. Adult day care facility is a permitted use in the B-2 General Business Zoning District. However, the Applicant will be required to submit for a PUD Amendment as part of the phasing plan. A full evaluation of the future adult day care use will be provided once the PUD Amendment is submitted. The City Council should consider the Phase III use with this application and provide Page 10 of 23 comment about possible provisions for this use as it relates to an event center and restaurant within the same shared building.

This area may also include medium to high density housing with a potential density of three (3) to twenty (20) units per acre. The proposed site plan is attached as Attachment F. Restaurants are a permitted use within this district. Page 11 of 23 The table below provides the performance standards for the B-2 Zoning District and the preliminary analysis for the proposed development of the principal structure and the site: Ordinance Requirements B-2 Zoning District Proposed Development Standards Maximum Floor Area 0.8 .17 (existing) Ratio Maximum Structure 45% 17% (existing) Coverage Minimum Landscape Lot 20% 23.34% (proposed) Area Minimum Front Yard 50 feet 48.8 feet (existing) Setback Minimum Rear Yard 20 feet +/- 160 feet (existing) Setback Minimum Side Yard 10 feet (min)/20 feet 19.5 feet/ +/-140 feet Setback total(existing) Minimum Lot Area 13,000 square feet 2.19 acres/94,543 square feet(existing) Maximum Building Height 50 feet 20 feet, 11 7/8" +/- existin 2. Design Standards — Section 1325.05 and 1325.055 A. Exterior Materials — Flexibility Requested At least seventy-five (75) percent of the exterior building materials should be made of brick masonry, tile masonry, natural stone or its synthetic equivalent, decorative concrete plank, transparent glass or any combination thereof. Trim and other accent or decorative features may be metal, wood, split faced block, EIFS, or stucco. Metals shall have a matte finish and have visible corner moldings and trim when used on exterior walls. Undesirable materials include simulated brick, vinyl or aluminum siding, sheet or corrugated metal siding, plain concrete blocks or panels, brightly colored metal roofing or canopies, pre -cast tilt -up walls, and mirrored or reflective glass. Building colors shall be muted. Recommended colors include browns, grays, tans, beiges, and dark or muted green, blues, and reds. Bright or brilliant colors and sharply contrasting colors may be used for only accent purposes occupying a maximum of five percent (5%) of building fagades. The City Council should evaluate the architectural style and building character based on the quality of its design and on its relationship to its surroundings. Site characteristics to be evaluated for this purpose include, but are not limited to, building and landscaping materials, colors, textures, shapes, massing, building components, height, roof -line, and setback. A full plan set of building elevations is included as Attachment G. Staff has provided the review below on building materials as shared by the Applicant in order for the City Council to attain a better understanding of the full scope of their project design. Building Materials — Flexibility Requested The proposed building elevations consist of brick veneer, transparent glass, metal panels, and wood. The Applicant has requested for the brick veneer to be considered preferred materials as the Page 12 of 23 brick would be actual clay brick, approximately half (1/2) an inch to five eighths (5/8) of an inch thick. Each brick would be individually installed with mortar joints. The Applicant has also requested flexibility from the 75% desirable materials requirement on the south building elevation where there is an existing tall parapet wall above an existing overhang. The Applicant states that there is a concern about this parapet wall's ability to accept additional weight from desirable materials such as brick masonry, tile masonry or natural stone. The proposed south elevation shows metal panels used on the existing parapet wall and the materials for the elevation would consist of 63% desirable materials and 37% accent materials. If the flexibility in building materials is granted for brick veneer, the Applicant will have met the 75% threshold with desired materials on three elevations based on the calculated building proportion of brick and transparent glass. The Applicant states that the exterior finishes for all elevations would equal 89% desirable materials and 11% accent materials. Event Center Building Required Preferred Materials Proposed Preferred Materials Other Materials Required Transparency Proposed Transparency 'first 12' of elevation North Fagade 75% 100% 0% N/A 0% East Fagade 75% 96% 4% 50% 14% South Fagade 75% 63% 37% 50% 4% West Fagade 75% 95% 5% N/A 0% A. Rendering of East and West Elevations — Event Center Rendering ofSouth and North Elevations — Event Center Page 13 of 23 AM n WE%1FAIORR Ano -Ev WSR A,i 9 N�RRIFf1 IA F AMON-WBO9 v vs.ry Section 1325.05, Subd. 8, F. states that fifty percent (50%) of all first level building facades that front a public street shall be comprised of transparent windows or doors in order to allow views of interior uses and activities. If the building is a one story design and the first floor elevation exceeds 12 feet, then only the first 12 feet shall be included in calculating the fagade area. The south and east elevations of the existing building have some front views from Connelly Avenue. The Applicant has provided the proposed transparency for the first 12 feet of these two elevations and is seeking flexibility from the transparency standard due to the construction of the existing building and the nature of the proposed use. The east elevation of the building is constructed of concrete block with existing covered openings near the roofline. They have stated it would be difficult to add a significant number of windows into the existing concrete block walls to meet the 50% requirement. The Applicant also states that the function of an event space requires a certain level of privacy and that windows viewing the activity inside the space would not be conducive to the activity. The Applicant offers that the existing main entrance at the southeast corner of the building consists of glass windows and glass entry doors with additional windows on the south wall. The proposal includes plans to maintain the main entry to allow views of the activities in the restaurant and bar areas of the building. The proposal would still enhance the existing building's appearance while serving the functions inside. B. Building Positioning — Nonconforming Section 1325.05 Subd. 8, E of the Arden Hills City Code states "at least fifty percent (50%) of the largest building on each site shall be constructed at the front setback line." The minimum front yard setback for the B-2 Zoning District is 50 feet and the existing front setback line is at 48.8 feet, which encroaches into the minimum setback. The Applicant is not proposing changes to the existing setback and would maintain the existing setback with the proposed development. C. Lighting — Flexibility Requested The Zoning Code requires exterior lighting to be consistent in type, design, scale, and color to create unity in the districts. Exterior lighting for parking lots and buildings shall not be excessive and shall be directed at their intended purposes. Any light or combination of lights shall not cast light that exceeds a meter reading of one foot candle on the travel lanes of adjoining public streets or 0.4 foot candles on adjoining residential property. The proposed lighting plan includes poly mounted area lights for the parking lot and wall lights to be installed at the south and east elevations. The proposed lighting is consistent with the use and the surrounding area. The Applicant has submitted a photometric plan that identifies the types of light fixtures and quantities and has stated that the proposed lights for the parking lot will be set at a height of 20 feet. The Subject Property is not adjacent to a residential property. The photometric plan shows that proposed lighting at one location will exceed a meter reading of one (1) foot candle Page 14 of 23 on Connelly Avenue with a reading of 1.4 foot candles. As a condition of approval, all lighting shall be downward directed shoebox style with flush lenses. Details about the proposed lighting are found in Attachment H. D. Site Furnishings — Flexibility Requested Section 1325.05 Subd. 8, J, establishes provisions for site furnishings and seating areas for new development, redevelopment, and modifications to existing sites in the B-2 Zoning District. Per the code, benches and decorative plantings shall be provided near the primary entrance of all buildings on a site. At the July 10, 2024 Planning Commission meeting, Condition 18 was added to the recommended conditions of approval, reading "The Applicant shall provide benches near the primary entrance of the building." The Applicant has submitted updated Architectural and Civil Plans indicating a bench to be placed near the main entrance to the restaurant space. Also noted in J of Subd. 8, restaurants shall include a functional outdoor seating area with tables, chairs, planting and access to the restaurant. As a restaurant is part of the Master PUD, and the use will be established at the Subject Property in Phase II of development, the proposed development is subject to this requirement. The Applicant noted in this application that there are no plans for an outdoor seating area and that the porch area on the east side of the building is a designated smoke area and would not be used for outside seating for the restaurant or the event center. The Applicant also stated as part of the narrative that the proposed development is intended to be fully enclosed to ensure noise is contained within the venue. The City Council may comment on the proposed site furnishings as they apply to both Phase I and Phase II of development. E. Screening — For Review Under Section 1325.05, Subd. 8, K, Trash and recycling equipment, materials, and containers shall be fully enclosed and integrated into the architecture of the buildings. All mechanical equipment, whether roof -mounted or ground -mounted should be integrated into the architecture of the building. It shall be completely screened from the ground -level view of adjacent properties and public streets. Wood screening shall not be permitted. There is a trash enclosure proposed for the Subject Property and located on the north side of the site. This enclosure will feature metal trash enclosure gates and the other three elevations will be constructed of a metal panel material consistent with the building design. The Applicant has noted that all mechanical equipment is located on the ground along the west side of the building. There are no existing roof -mounted systems, and none will be added as part of the proposed development. The Applicant is proposing all ground mounted mechanical equipment will be screened from view by new on -site landscaping which is shown in the landscaping plans in Attachment F. The Applicant states that the equipment will not be visible from the right of way on the west side of Snelling Avenue. At the July 10, 2024 Planning Commission meeting, Condition 20 was added to the conditions of approval, reading "Screening for ground -mounted mechanical equipment shall meet the requirements of the Zoning Code." In updated landscaping plans, the Applicant updated the proposed screening plantings to an evergreen shrub to provide year-round screening. The updated narrative includes a statement from the landscape engineer, stating that the proposed planting will Page 15 of 23 provide the proper screening for the mechanical equipment. The City Council should comment as part of the review if the proposed screening is sufficient. F. Landscaping — Flexibility Requested Section 1320.06 — District Requirements Chart of the City Code requires a minimum landscape lot area of 20% or 18,908.6 square feet for the Subject Property in the B-2 Zoning District. The Applicant is proposing a landscape lot area of approximately 23.34% percent or 22,067 square feet. Additionally, at least 10% or 2,206.7 square feet of the total landscaped area (i.e. 22,067 square feet) shall be covered with perennials and/or shrubbery. The Applicant is proposing perennial and/or shrubbery of approximately 23.63% or 5,214.5 square feet. Planting islands shall occupy 10% or 6,478.8 square feet of the parking area (i.e. 64,788 square feet). The landscaping plans show seven (7) proposed parking islands but do not indicate the total square feet of the provided planting islands. Additionally, per City Code, planting islands shall be edged with concrete curbs. Parking lot planting islands shall be a minimum of 150 square feet in area, be of appropriate width and length, and each parking island shall include at least one tree to meet the requirements of this ordinance. The Applicant has stated a request for flexibility from the planting islands requirement for one (1) tree per parking lot planting island. Plans show that six (6) of the seven (7) parking lot planting islands will not have a tree planted and that one (1) planting island would have three (3) trees planted. This plan would allow site lighting in lieu of trees within six (6) of the proposed islands to provide adequate lighting to the site. At the July 10, 2024 Planning Commission meeting, Condition 19 was added to the conditions for approval, reading "The Applicant shall be required to install curbing around parking islands with parking lot improvements." In the narrative submitted on July 15, the Applicant notes that the redevelopment of the parking lot will incorporate curb and gutter around all new parking islands and all changes requested by the City Engineer/Public Works Director and the Rice Creek Watershed District based on their review of the project documents. The site contains approximately 145 caliper inches of significant trees. Section 1325.055 Subd. 5 allows for the removal of fewer than ten (10) percent of the caliper inches of significant trees on the property without requiring mitigation. Ten (10) percent of 145 is 14.5 caliper inches. The Applicant proposes removing 119 caliper inches of trees, meaning the Applicant is responsible for mitigation of 104.5 caliper inches removed above ten (10) percent. Per Section 1325.055 Subd 6, the number of caliper inches of trees required for replanting is determined at a rate of 1:2 or one (1) inch replaced for every two (2) inches lost. The Applicant intends to replace the 61 caliper inches required based on the total inches removed and the rate of replacement. Existing 10% of Proposed Inches in Required Proposed Existing Removal excess of 10% Replacement Replacement 145 caliper 14.5 caliper 119 caliper 104.5 caliper 52.25 caliper 61 caliper inches inches inches inches inches inches The City Code requires a minimum of one (1) tree be provided along the right-of-way of every 50 feet of public street frontage. The Subject Property survey shows the south property line with frontage on Connelly Avenue has approximately 20 feet of frontage. The proposed development would be required to plant one (1) tree along the Connelly Avenue right-of-way. Right-of-way tree plantings are not shown in the plans. Page 16 of 23 G. Snow Storage — For Review Adequate area should be designed for snow storage such that clear visibility shall be afforded from the property to any public street. The Applicant has identified in their narrative and on a Plan Sheet C-B in the Civil Plans (Attachment F) that snow storage would be located at the four corners of the property. The plan shows that if the snow accumulation exceeds capacity available for on -site storage, the Applicant intends to have snow hauled off -site with a snow removal vendor. H. Parking Setbacks — Flexibility Requested The City Code requires off-street parking areas to be located a minimum of 20 feet from the right-of-way of any public street. For side and rear setbacks, off-street parking areas are required to be located a minimum of five (5) feet from rear and side lot lines. The Applicant will be improving the parking lot with new pavement in generally the same configuration that exists today with the addition of pavement in the northwest corner of the property. The Applicant is seeking flexibility to maintain the existing off-street parking setback from the ROW along Connelly Avenue and adjacent to the south property line. The parking lot area would maintain a five (5) foot setback along the remaining three property lines. The paving plan is Plan Sheet C3 in the Civil Plans found in Attachment F. I. Number of Parking Stalls — Council Input Requested Per City Code 1325.06, there are general categories that determine the number of parking spaces that would need to be provided, but an event center as a principal use is not specifically identified. As part of the land use application for a Zoning Code Amendment, the Applicant has provided the following provisions to apply based on the proposed use as an event center: • Event Center — one (1) parking space for every three (3) seats at designed capacity. The Applicant is proposing the replacement of the existing parking lot with 145 parking stalls including 5 accessible stalls. Based on a review of Ramsey County Aerial Data from 2022, the Subject Property was last identified to have 74 striped parking spaces. The proposed parking replacement would result in a decrease of approximately 2,000 square feet in parking lot. The proposal includes the addition of parking islands for lighting and landscaping that do not exist on site. The proposed plan for Phase I would consist of an event center of approximately 11,000 square feet with a seating capacity for 450 guests. Based on the Applicant's proposal of one (1) parking space for every three (3) seats at a seating capacity of 450 people, the site would be required 150 parking spaces. At the July 10, 2024 meeting of the Planning Commission, the Planning Commission proposed amending the Applicant's proposed parking requirement for event centers to one (1) parking space for every four (4) seats at designed capacity. The amended amendment language was recommended for approval 6-0. With the proposed provision for the minimum off-street parking requirement as amended by the Planning Commission, the proposed seating capacity of 450 people would require 113 spaces. In Phase II, the proposed restaurant use is evaluated based on the provisions for a Restaurants, Bars use: • Restaurants, Bars — one (1) for every two (2) seats. The proposed plan for Phase II would consist of the restaurant portion of the building with a designed capacity of 34 people. Based on this provision, 17 parking spaces would be required. Page 17 of 23 As the event center and restaurant uses would be operational simultaneously, the parking requirements for both uses apply. The City Council should discuss the drafted ordinance language for the number of parking stalls. The Applicant is proposing 145 parking spaces for the site for Phases I and II of the development. • Event Center at seating for 450 guests 0 150 parking spaces required for every three (3) seats - does not meet minimum requirement for Phases I and II, flexibility requested 0 113 parking spaces required for every four (4) seats -meets minimum for Phases I and II • Restaurant at 34 seats o 17 parking spaces at two (2) seats I Driveways — Recommended Condition Within the parking requirements, the City has standards for the minimum and maximum driveway width for commercial properties. The minimum and maximum driveway widths are 22 feet and 32 feet on City streets, respectively. The Applicant is proposing to utilize the existing driveway access with frontage on Connelly Avenue. The submitted site survey does not include the dimensions of the existing driveway. City Code states that access drives may be placed adjacent to property lines but in no case shall a driveway be placed nearer than five (5) feet to an existing drive on an abutting property. Future improvements to the parking lot on the Subject Property at the driveway access would be held to the standards of the City Code. Upon further review, it was identified that a portion of the Subject Property's driveway access is located on the property to the south which is owned by Flaherty's. The Applicant has provided documentation which identifies the area of the public easement for roadway purposes (i.e. Connelly Avenue) that was dedicated in 1962. A portion of the easement was vacated in 1977 and delineated in a manner that allowed the Subject Property to retain public access to the roadway. The City has consulted the City Attorney to corroborate the information provided by the Applicant and determined that no additional easement would be required for access to the Subject Property. Based on the current information and the recommendation of the City Attorney, staff suggests the addition of Condition 22, stating that "The Applicant shall be required for parking lot improvements to relocate the driveway access including curbing so that it is entirely located within the non -vacated portion of Connelly Avenue in a manner compliant with city codes." Condition 22 was added to the conditions for approval after the July 10, 2024 Planning Commission meeting and therefore was not reviewed by the Planning Commission. K. Traffic Study and Site Circulation — For Review The site currently has one access point to the Subject Property along Connelly Avenue and no changes are proposed to the current configuration. Under Section 1325.05, Subd. 8, a traffic study shall be required for all new developments, redevelopments, and significant modifications to existing sites. A traffic study has been prepared (see Attachment I for summary section of report). The traffic report compares the Phase I event center proposal to the existing bingo hall use during weekday AM and PM peak hours. The memo dated June 10, 2024 prepared by SEH notes that the redevelopment of the site to an event center is expected to generate approximately 130 entering trips in a one -hour period prior to an event and 62 exiting trips after the event. The Phase II restaurant use was not included in the provided traffic comparison or summary. Page 18 of 23 Compared to the existing use, there would be an additional 120 trips entering in one hour and fewer trips expected to exit during one hour after an event. It is anticipated that the proposed business would generate less than 400 trips in one day, likely on a weekend with an evening event at maximum capacity. The Memo concludes that the anticipated traffic generated is not expected to impact the operations or safety of Connelly Avenue or its intersections with County Road E. The peak hours of events may conflict for a short amount of time with other adjacent businesses and the signal at County Road E and Connelly Avenue to monitor timings and make minor adjustments as needed. The Applicant was asked to demonstrate how larger trucks would maneuver internally. The Applicant did provide as part of their submission illustrating vehicle movements. This plan sheet is included in the Civil Plans within Attachment F. The Fire Marshall is still reviewing this application and has yet to provide formal comments. L. Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation — For Review Pedestrian and bicycle improvements shall be installed in accordance with the City of Arden Hills Comprehensive Plan. The Applicant has provided a pedestrian circulation plan as part of the Civil Plans which shows site navigation for pedestrians. There is not an existing public sidewalk or trail network for an internal sidewalk system to link to adjacent to the Subject Property. The Applicant is proposing a bicycle rack/bicycle parking as part of this development located near the southeast corner of the building. The submitted Civil Plans show seven (7) bicycle spaces. City Code Section 1325.05 Subd, 8, Q does require one (1) space for every 20 parking spaces. Commercial developments are required to have a minimum of two (2) bicycle parking spaces. M. Freestanding Signs — Nonconforming, Flexibility Requested The Subject Property is located in Sign District 7. Properties in Sign District 7 are allowed one (1) freestanding sign measuring up to 25 square feet in copy area and not exceeding eight (8) feet in height. Freestanding signs shall be located at least five (5) feet from any property line. Sign copy area is defined as the area in square feet of the smallest rectangle, circle, or triangle that contains the sign copy. Signs in Sign District 7 may be lit by external illumination only. The Applicant is proposing to reface an existing freestanding pole sign located on the west side of the property. The existing pole sign is nonconforming with the height, illumination, and sign copy area requirements for freestanding signs in Sign District 7. The proposed internally illuminated sign would be approximately 16 feet in height and have a total sign copy area of approximately 23.2 square feet. Also, the total area of a freestanding sign shall not exceed 1.5 times the permitted sign copy area of said sign which would be 34.8 square feet for this application. The proposed freestanding sign has a total area of 40.4 square feet. The sign plans are shown on Page A5.1 in Attachment G.

Wall Signs — Meets Requirements Properties in Sign District 7 are allowed wall signs up to 45 square feet and signs may be externally and internally illuminated. The Applicant is proposing two (2) internally illuminated wall signs for a total square footage of 44.7 square feet, both to be located on the east elevation. One reading Elegant Event Center & Cafe will be installed above the main entry to the building and one reading Event Center Entrance above the entrance to the main hall from the covered patio. The signage will be offset by decorative architectural accents using an accent metal on the east and south elevations. 0� 0 n EAST BUILDING ELEVATION East Elevation with Signage and Accents South Elevation Accent Page 20 of 23 A -- 3. Procedural Requirements for Specific Applications —Section 1355.04 A public hearing for a CUP and PUD request is required before the request can be brought before the City Council. The applicant or its representative shall be given the opportunity to appear before the Planning Commission to answer questions or give explanations regarding the proposal. Upon completion of the public hearing and its study and consideration of the application, the Planning Commission shall submit its written report, containing its findings, conclusions, and recommendations as to the application, to the City Council.

We are committed to enhancing this community by addressing unmet needs and fostering mutually beneficial partnerships with local businesses. Our approach is rooted in collaboration, ensuring that we contribute positively to the local economy while building a solid foundation for long-term growth. We have a proven history of working effectively with government bodies to establish a reputable and thriving business. Our experience in navigating the regulatory landscape allows us to implement projects that align with community standards and expectations, ensuring that our initiatives are both sustainable and impactful. We believe that our commitment to excellence and community engagement sets us apart, positioning us as a trusted partner in the continued development of Arden Hills. Our Background Rose and James Kukwa, immigrants from Cameroon now proud US citizens, arrived in the United States 13 and 22 years ago, respectively. Their journey to entrepreneurship stemmed from a profound encounter during a bitter winter in Minnesota, when a homeless individual sought refuge at their doorstep. While offering assistance is customary in Cameroon, caution prevailed, highlighting a cultural difference. Nonetheless, their compassionate response sparked a commitment to serve their newfound community. In 2013, they founded Opportunity Community Services to aid individuals with limited means, impacting over 5000 lives by providing housing assistance and fostering community connections. Additionally, their active involvement in event planning within the Cameroonian community unveiled a pressing need for a versatile event venue, catalyzing the inception of Elegant Event Center. Location and Plans Situated at 3776 Connelly Ave in Arden Hills, Minnesota, the former Bingo Hall and Brightside Caf6 premises offer an ideal setting for an elegant event center. The property spans 11,976 square feet on 2.19 acres, with an occupancy load of 567, boasting ample parking and a sprinkler system for safety. While the current owner has made some capital improvements to the current property, there is deferred maintenance. Our plan is to improve and restore both the building and the property so that it will enhance, not detract, from the surrounding area. Phased Development Phase 1: Scheduled until December 2024, focuses on establishing a versatile event center capable of hosting various gatherings. The center, designed to accommodate up to 464 people 450 guests, will feature modern amenities and ensures a secure environment with on -site security. Catering services will be provided under licensed arrangements, ensuring compliance with alcohol serving regulations. Phase 2: Will begin immediately after Phase 1 and involves opening up the Caf6 area, obtaining a liquor license to enhance the dining experience and complement event catering. The caf& will continue to operate within its current square footage, maintaining a seating capacity of 34. It will remain open for as long as the event space is in use, providing food and beverages to event attendees. Drawings and plans are included with architectural work. Phase 3: Set for August 2025, aiming to build a sustainable business model that takes advantage of the space during other days/times for an adult day care program. This initiative addresses community needs while ensuring financial stability. We are currently collaborating with the Minnesota Department of Human Services to modify our existing Home and Community -Based Services license. Once these adjustments are completed, operations will commence. 2 ELEGANT E V E N T C E N T E R The adult day care will share the same space as the event hall on designated days of the week. We anticipate the Day care program would serve a maximum of 20 people weekly. The Caf6 will play a key role in this phase by providing hot, fresh lunches to our day care members. The Adult Day Care program will offer activities such as educational programs, arts and crafts, supervised field trips, board games, and group fitness exercise sessions. Drawings and plans are included with architectural work. Based on the occupancy load calculated by Vanney and Associates, we have determined the total occupancy of the property to be 567. We are also in communication with both the fire marshal and building officials and will partner with them/follow their recommendations to ensure a safe and secure environment. Elegant Events intends to cap its capacity to 508 people broken down as follows: I) Maximum event guest capacity would be capped at 450: The following strategies would be put in place to ensure the event hall does not exceed its maximum seating capacity of 450: Contracts with the event host will be specific about guest capacity. EEC would not accommodate any events whose capacity would require more than 450 people. All marketing materials, contractual agreements and operations will reflect this capacity of 450. Emergency Exits and Safety: EEC will Ensure all exits are clearly marked and accessible, and that all safety protocols are communicated to guests and staff. The building has an automatic fire sprinkler system throughout. Exiting Doors provided (6) 36" Existing Exit Doors. Training: Regular training of staff that will include operational capacity, reservation system, fire plans, etc. Signage: Appropriate and clear signage calling out capacity limits for both staff and guests will be visible throughout the property. Security Personnel: security staff will be onsite for events and trained on crowd control. II) Restaurant is capped at 34 patrons: The following strategies would be put in place to ensure the restaurant does not exceed its maximum seating capacity of 34: Reservation System: Implement a reservation system to control the flow of guests. Use an online booking platform that allows you to manage and limit the number of reservations. Ensure walk-in guests are only seated if there are available seats within the capacity limit. Table and seating layout: Arrangements will only be created to accommodate 34 seats. Real -Time Tracking: Use a seating management system to track the number of occupied and available seats in real time. Train staff to update the system as guests are seated and when they leave. Guest Communication: Communicate with guests through our website, reservation confirmation emails, and at the point of entry about the seating capacity and any potential wait times. III) We estimate a total staff team of 24 people for both Events and restaurant Operating Hours Operating hours are tailored to suit community needs, ranging from 8 am to 11:59 pm Monday through Thursday and Sunday. 8 am to 3 am on Fridays, and Saturdays, with liquor service ending at 2 am.

Adult day care center Hours Days Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Hours 8am-4 m 8am-4 m 8am-4 m 8am-4 m Adult Day Care programs share the same space with events, as such, the space can only be used for either events or adult day care at any given time, not both simultaneously. Justification of extended event hours to 3am Our objective is to provide a versatile and inclusive venue that can accommodate a wide range of events and fosters community engagement. Here are the key reasons why extending our hours to 3 AM is beneficial for both our establishment and the Arden Hills community: Diverse Audience and Event Offerings: The Elegant Event Center aims to serve a broad spectrum of events, including corporate gatherings, weddings, cultural celebrations, and social functions. By extending our hours, we can accommodate the varying needs and schedules of different groups, enhancing our ability to host a diverse array of events. This inclusivity supports the cultural and social fabric of Arden Hills, making it a more vibrant and appealing place to live and visit. Economic Boost and Job Creation: Extended operating hours will have a positive economic impact on Arden Hills. Longer hours mean more employment opportunities for local residents, from event staff to security personnel and catering services. Additionally, the influx of guests attending late -night events will benefit nearby businesses, such as hotels, restaurants, and transportation services, contributing to the local economy. 4 ELEGANT E V E N T C E N T E R Enhanced Community Engagement: By offering a safe and controlled environment for late -night gatherings, the Elegant Event Center can help reduce the occurrence of unsupervised and potentially unsafe late -night activities in the community. Our facility will be equipped with professional security and strict adherence to all local regulations, ensuring a secure setting for all attendees. Balanced Approach to Alcohol Service: Our plan to end alcohol service at 2 AM, one hour before closing, demonstrates our commitment to responsible alcohol management. This policy provides a buffer period for guests to enjoy the remainder of their evening in a safe and relaxed manner, reducing the risk of overconsumption and promoting a more orderly dispersal at closing time. Community -Oriented Events: The extended hours allow us to support community -oriented events that may run late into the night, such as charity fundraisers, cultural festivals, and social gatherings that foster community spirit. These events play a crucial role in building a sense of belonging and unity among residents of Arden Hills. We believe that the Elegant Event Center, with its commitment to diversity, economic growth, and community safety, will be an asset to Arden Hills. We respectfully request your consideration of our proposal to operate until 3 AM, ensuring that our venue can fully serve the needs and aspirations of our diverse audience. Benefits to the Community Economic Growth Job Creation: The project will create employment opportunities, including event staff, kitchen staff, servers, and administrative positions. Local Spending: By sourcing supplies and services locally, the venue will support other businesses in the community. Increased Tourism: Hosting events and attracting visitors from outside the area can boost tourism and bring additional revenue to local businesses. Community Engagement • Social Hub: The venue can become a central gathering place for various community events, fostering social connections and a sense of belonging. • Cultural Exchange: Hosting a diverse range of events such as weddings, cultural celebrations, and corporate functions can promote cultural exchange and understanding within the community. Support for Local Businesses • Vendor Partnerships: Collaborating with local vendors for catering, floral arrangements, and event planning services will support small businesses and entrepreneurs in the area. • Networking Opportunities: Events hosted at the venue can facilitate networking among local businesses and professionals, leading to potential partnerships and collaborations. Enhanced Quality of Life • Access to Event Spaces: Providing a venue for weddings, parties, and community events offers residents a convenient and attractive option for celebrating special occasions. • Recreational Activities: The addition of a restaurant and potentially an adult day care program offers residents additional amenities and services that contribute to their overall quality of life. Revenue Generation for the City • Tax Revenue: The project will generate tax revenue for the city through property taxes, sales taxes, and potentially liquor license fees. • Property Value Increase: A successful and thriving event venue can contribute to the attractiveness and desirability of the neighborhood, potentially leading to an increase in property values. Parking, Security Measures, and Noise Control Parking As mentioned above, the center is designed to ,.,.,.,.m,r da4e up to 464 a4te has an occupancy load of 567. Parking needs are adequately addressed with 145 spaces available on -site. Additionally, agr-eefnen4s are being made with neighboring businesses paffiettlar-ly The Pr-esbyter-ian Chur-oh of the way leeated Minutes from the vefme to utilize their- par -king f4eilities an an as needed basis. We are presenting a proposal for establishing parking requirements for the new and future event centers in Arden Hills. As this will be the first event center in our city, there are no existing guidelines in the city code specifically addressing parking requirements for such a venue. Drawing on the standards set by neighboring cities and considering the practical needs of our facility, we propose that the parking requirement for the event center be set at one car per three seats. Comparative Research from Neighboring Cities: Roseville, MN: We reached out to the City of Roseville, and we spoke we Thomas Paschke, - the City Planner. He confirmed that Roseville requires one parking space per four seats for places of assembly, such as event centers. He also added that event centers also fall under the usage of Convention Centers whose parking requirement would be the same is place of assembly. This standard effectively balances the need for adequate parking while avoiding excessive allocation of space. Adopting a similar requirement in Arden Hills ensures consistency with regional norms and supports our venue's operational needs. Shoreview, MN: We reached out to the city of Shoreview and this city does not have specific requirement for an event center, but Izaak Peterson -city planner recommended that an event center would fall under the Commercial Recreation use. Typically, the city requires one parking space per three seats for such facilities. This alignment with the proposed ratio further supports the feasibility and practicality of implementing the same standard in Arden Hills, ensuring our city's standards are consistent with neighboring communities. Oakdale MN: We reached out to the City of Oakdale, Luke McClanahan the city planner said event centers would fall under the category of Churches, Theaters, Auditoriums, or Other Places of Assembly and the minimum parking requirements would be one car per four seats. This is similar to what Arden Hills currently has for this category with the exception of the event center which is not listed in the city code. The current requirement for this category for Arden Hills is one car per three people. Saint Paul, MN. • Saint Paul has recently eliminated minimum parking requirements for most properties, including event centers (City of St Paul Code). This policy shift aims to support economic development, reduce construction costs, and promote sustainability by encouraging alternative transportation modes. While this approach is more flexible than our proposal, it underscores the trend toward less restrictive parking requirements in urban planning. By adopting a one car per three seats ratio, Arden Hills can strike a balance between flexibility and practicality, reflecting modern planning principles. Practical and Environmental Considerations: 0 ELEGANT E V E N T C E N T E R Usage Patterns Event centers typically host a variety of events, including conferences, weddings, and performances, where attendees often carpool. This results in a higher average car occupancy compared to other facilities like restaurants or recreational centers. A parking ratio of one car per three seats accurately reflects these usage patterns, ensuring adequate parking without over -provisioning. Environmental Benefits: Adopting a parking standard of one car per three seats supports Arden Hills' commitment to sustainability. It encourages carpooling and the use of alternative transportation, which helps reduce traffic congestion and carbon emissions. Additionally, this approach aligns with urban planning trends that prioritize efficient land use and minimize unnecessary paved surfaces, contributing to a more aesthetically pleasing and environmentally friendly urban environment. Community Impact: The proposed parking ratio balances the need for sufficient parking with the desire to maintain green spaces and a visually appealing urban landscape. By avoiding the pitfalls of over -parking, such as excessive asphalt areas, we can preserve the city's charm and promote a healthier, more sustainable community. In conclusion, setting the parking requirement for event centers at one car per three seats is a practical and forward - thinking solution that aligns with established practices in neighboring cities like Roseville, Shoreview, Oakdale, and reflects modern urban planning principles seen in Saint Paul. This ratio meets the needs of the venue while supporting broader city planning goals and environmental sustainability. I respectfully request that the city council consider and approve this proposal, allowing us to proceed with the development of a facility that will bring significant cultural and economic benefits to Arden Hills. As mentioned above, Elegant Event/cafe intends to cap its capacity at 508 people. Parking needs are adequately addressed with 145 spaces available on -site. With the recommendation of approval from the City Planning Commission of 1 car per 4 seats for Event Centers, EEC would meet the minimum parking requirement for both the event center and restaurant. City code requirements for Restaurant: I carper 2 seats: The restaurant has a capacity seating of 34, going by the minimum requirement, we would need 17 parking stalls for restaurants. Cityplanning commission recommendation of 1 carper 4 seats: The cap for event guest is set at 450 guests going by the planning commission's recommendation, we would need 113 parking stalls. This will bring the minimum parking requirements for the uses proposed to 130 parking stalls. We currently have 145 parking stalls. Security Plan We have taken specific measures when it comes to security, especially with the serving of alcohol. The following measures will be implemented to ensure a safe and secure environment: 1. Surveillance System: The venue is equipped with at least 24 security cameras strategically placed around and inside the building. This comprehensive coverage will ensure continuous monitoring of all areas, including entrances, exits, and common spaces. 2. Panic Buttons: Two police panic buttons are installed inside the building. These buttons provide an immediate alert system to local law enforcement in case of emergencies, ensuring a swift response to any incidents. 3. Onsite Security Officers: During events, onsite security officers will be present to manage security operations. These officers will: o Monitor and control access points to prevent unauthorized entry. o Ensure that attendees do not take alcohol out to the patio area, which is designated as the smoking area. o Respond promptly to any security issues or disturbances, maintaining order and safety for all attendees. 4. Alcohol Management: Strict protocols will be in place for the serving of alcohol. Security officers and staff will be trained to monitor and manage alcohol consumption, preventing overconsumption and ensuring compliance with local laws and regulations. Noise Control To address concerns about noise, the following measures will be in place: 1. Indoor Events: All events will be held inside the building, ensuring that noise is contained within the venue. 2. Building Materials: The event center is constructed with concrete, which is highly effective in soundproofing and preventing noise from escaping the building. This will significantly reduce the impact of event noise on the surrounding community. 3. Security Officers: Onsite security officers will ensure that attendees do not congregate outside the building, which helps to minimize noise in outdoor areas. Security personnel will actively manage and disperse any groups that form outside, particularly in the designated smoking area on the patio, to maintain a quiet and orderly environment. Other comments from the planning commission and recommended conditions for approval Updated Narrative in response to PC #24-014 — 3776 Connelly Avenue — City Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Site Plan Review and Conditional Use Permit from July 10'h 2024 Condition 18, 19, and 20 of the Planning Commission's recommendation. The civil plans currently included within the presentation materials reflect the proposed construction as originally submitted to the planning department on June 1 2th with the exception of modifications to clarify the new evergreen shrubs proposed as screening for the existing air conditioning units in accordance with Condition 20 of the Planning Commission's recommendation and the addition of a bench to serve patrons at the main entrance of the building in accordance with Condition 18 of the Planning Commission's recommendation. It is our intention to incorporate curb and gutter around all new parking islands and all changes requested by the City Engineer and the Rice Creek Watershed District as a result of their respective review of the project documents. Statement from the landscape engineer: Yew's (Taxus) have a medium to high growth rate, a densely branched and wide spreading growth habit, are resistant to insect and diseases, come in a wide variety of forms, and can grow to a size of 5' high by 5'-8' wide. They are a choice plant for screening due to their ability to withstand shaping making them a commonly used selection for hedgerows. This specific variety of yew is also found to be resistant to winter burn in Minnesota giving this plant a greater chance to establish in the first year after planting. For these reasons we believe that this planting will provide the proper screening that the city of Arden Hills is seeking in their requirements for the mechanical equipment screening. Condition 21 of the Planning Commission's recommendation. See hours of operations above for a response. 4. The signage of the building has been updated to include a verbiage for the Restaurant. 5. Section 1325.05, Subd. 8, F. requires that fifty percent (50%) of all first -level building fagades fronting a public street be composed of transparent windows or doors to allow views of interior uses and activities. We are requesting flexibility regarding this requirement for the following reasons: a. The building is constructed from concrete block, making it very difficult to maintain structural integrity when adding windows to meet the 50% transparency requirement. 8 ELEGANT E V E N T C E N T E R b. The intended purpose of the building is to function as an event center, which necessitates a certain level of privacy. Windows allowing views into space would not be suitable for the activities planned. c. The property is quite isolated, surrounded by parking lots, bushes, and a railroad, minimizing the benefits of additional windows. Update on parking light calculations: The engineers used a height of 20' for parking lights when they calculated the foot-candles in the parking lot. Conclusion The Elegant Event Center represents a significant investment in the Arden Hills community, combining social responsibility with entrepreneurial vision. By addressing community needs through a phased development approach, this project will create a vibrant social hub and support local businesses. The strategic location, coupled with thoughtful planning around parking, security, and noise control, ensures that the center will operate smoothly and contribute positively to the neighborhood. As a symbol of resilience and inclusivity, the Elegant Event Center is set to enrich the fabric of Arden Hills, fostering economic growth, cultural exchange, and a higher quality of life for residents. The project's comprehensive benefits and alignment with modern urban planning principles make it a valuable addition to the community, deserving full support and approval. Thank you for your consideration. Aasa SJamas Kakwa Far Elegant Event Center. Vanney Associates, Inc. Architects 5-29-2024 Elegant Event Center 3776 Connelly Road Arden Hills, Minnesota Arden Hills City Planning Submittal Request for Flexibilities City of Arden Hills, We respectfully request your approval of Flexibilities to the City's Zoning code for the following items: 1. There is an existing freestanding pole sign the applicant would like to reuse. It is along the west side of the property, between the existing building and the right of way for Snelling Avenue. We propose to re -face it with a new sign for Elegant Event Center as shown on the drawings submitted in the Planning Submittal Package. 2. We propose to use thin brick as the Desirable Material. This brick would be actual clay brick approximately 1/2" to 5/8" thick. Each brick is individually installed with mortar joints. 3. All the new exterior finishes will conform to City's appearance requirements and the average overall percentage breakdown for all elevations between Desirable Materials and Accent Materials is as follows: Desirable Materials - 89% Accent Materials - 11 % The south building elevation has an existing tall parapet wall above an existing overhang. We are concerned about this parapet wall's ability to accept too much additional weight imposed by the new Desirable Materials — i.e. brick masonry, tile masonry, natural stone, etc. We would like to request a Flexibility to the percentages of Desirable Materials and Accent Materials for this elevation only. The percentages for this elevation, as shown on the in the submittal package, are: Desirable Materials - 63% Accent Material - 37% 4. The City's Design Standards state, "Fifty percent (50%) of all first level building fagades that front a public street shall be comprised of transparent windows or doors in order to allow views of interior uses and activities." We would like to request a Flexibility to this design standard. 55 East 51h Street, Suite 750 Saint Paul, Minnesota (651)222-4642 55101 Vanney Associates, Inc. Architects The existing building's main entrance is in the southeast corner of the building facing east toward the public street. It consists of glass windows and glass entry doors approximately 29'- 9" wide with additional windows on the south wall. We intend to maintain the main entry to the restaurant, bar and event space as well as the windows on the south wall. We will clean and refurbish this glass entry or replace it if needed. These windows and doors allow views of the activities in the restaurant and bar from the street. The east wall of the existing event space is constructed of with concrete block with, what appears to be, covered openings at the top of the wall near the roof line. The function of the event space requires a certain level privacy and windows viewing the activity inside would be not conducive to this activity. Also, it would be difficult to add a significant number of windows into the existing concrete block walls in order the meet the 50% requirement listed above. Our intent is to cover all the exterior walls of the event space entirely with the brick mentioned above using the pattern shown on the exterior elevation included in the Planning Submittal Package. This would enhance the existing building's appearance and better serve the function inside. 5. The project is proposing partial rehabilitation of the existing pavement through mill and overlay. Due to the limited ability to adjust existing grades with this operation, new curb and gutter is not being proposed at the parking islands. A Flexibility is requested to allow this condition in order to maintain the existing drainage patterns from the site. 6. A Flexibility is requested to allow site lighting in lieu of trees within six of the proposed landscape beds in order to provide adequate lighting to the site. 7. A flexibility is requested to allow for the installation of new 2.5-3.0 caliper inch trees in lieu of 4-6.0 caliper inch trees. In our experience, trees with diameters in the range of 2.5-3.0 caliper inches have an increased chance of surviving the transplanting process than their larger counterparts. Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Rix F. VM^44 Robert F. Vanney, Architect & President Vanney Associates, Inc. 55 East 51h Street, Suite 750 Saint Paul, Minnesota (651)222-4642 55101 ---ARzEN HILLS June 4, 2024 (Response 6-12-2024) Rose Kukwa 9795 85th St S Cottage Grove, MN 55106 RE: PC #24-014 — 3776 Connelly Avenue — City Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Site Plan Review and Conditional Use Permit Dear Rose, The City has received the land use application and plans submitted for the Elegant Event Center Development at 3776 Connelly Avenue. Your application for a City Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Site Plan Review, and Conditional Use Permit was submitted on May 30, 2024. Under Minnesota Statute, Chapter 15.99, Time Deadline for Agency Action, cities have 15 business days to review zoning -related applications to ensure that all items on the application checklist have been provided. We have determined that the following required information is missing: City Narrative a. Add statement and details for proposed City Code Amendments. Narrative should address amendments for adding Event Center as a use permitted by conditional use permit in the B-2 Zoning District and for allowing an event center to serve alcohol with a caterer that holds a State liquor license. Response: Elegant Event Center is proposing amendments to the City Code to enhance our community's event hosting capabilities. Specifically, we are requesting the following changes: Addition of Event Center as a Conditional Use in the B-2 Zoning District: We propose that the City Code be amended to include "Event Center" as a use permitted by conditional use permit in the B-2 Zoning District. This amendment will allow us to operate an event center that can host a variety of functions, such as weddings, corporate events, and other social gatherings, providing a dedicated space for community engagements and celebrations. Authorization for Event Centers to Serve Alcohol with a Licensed Caterer: We also propose that event centers in the B-2 Zoning District be permitted to serve alcohol in conjunction with a caterer holding a State liquor license. This flexibility is essential for meeting the diverse needs of our clients. While we intend to operate a caf6 on the property that will serve both food and alcohol, there will be occasions where external catering is necessary to accommodate specific culinary preferences that our caf6 cannot fulfill. City of Arden Hills • 1245 West Highway 96 • Arden Hills Minnesota 55112 Phone 651.792.7800 • Fax 651.634.5137 • www.cityofardenhills.org ---ARzEN HILLS Justification for the Proposed Amendments The addition of an event center as a conditional use in the B-2 Zoning District aligns with the district's purpose of accommodating commercial activities that serve the local community. Event centers are becoming increasingly popular as venues for various social and corporate events, and having a dedicated facility will enhance the city's attractiveness as a destination for such gatherings. Furthermore, allowing event centers to serve alcohol with a licensed caterer is crucial for the flexibility and inclusivity of our services. For example, if we host a wedding where the clients desire a specific type of cuisine, such as Indian food, and our caf6 is unable to provide it, the clients should have the option to bring in a licensed vendor who can meet their needs. These proposed amendments will not only support the growth and diversification of our local economy but also meet the evolving needs of our community. By allowing event centers in the B-2 Zoning District and enabling them to serve alcohol with licensed caterers, we can provide a versatile and inclusive venue for all types of events, enhancing the overall attractiveness and functionality of our city. We respectfully request that the council consider and approve these amendments to the City Code. b. Identify if the Event Center capacity of 464 attendees includes staff and caf6 patrons or if there would be additional individuals on -site during events. Response: The fire marshal determined that the Event Hall can accommodate 464 people. This number would include Event Staff. The caf6 seats 34 people with 5 staff. The Adult Day Care has 20 occupants with 4 staff. The Adult Daycare and the Caf6 will not be open during an event in the Event Center. Therefore, our maximum occupancy will be 464 occupants at any one time. c. Specify if the caf6 will be open to non-event attendees while the event space is in use. Response: The caf6 will not be open to non-event attendees while the event space is in use. However, the kitchen will be open during events for event food and drinks. d. Specify if events such as conferences or performances would be held in the space during the Adult Day Program hours of operations. Response: Since the space is shared, it can only be used for either events or adult day care at any given time, not both simultaneously. City of Arden Hills • 1245 West Highway 96 • Arden Hills Minnesota 55112 Phone 651.792.7800 • Fax 651.634.5137 • www.cityofardenhills.org ---ARzEN HILLS e. Provide documentation of executed parking agreements with neighboring businesses, including agreement language and the number of spaces that are part of the agreement. Response: We do not believe we need additional parking. However, in the event that we need additional parking, we are in communication with Presbyterian church of the way. The pastor has assured us of 55 parking spaces, but the parking agreement has to be executed by the Church Session which does not meet until June 20th. Request for Flexibilities a. In the Elegant Event Center City Narrative, it is suggested that the formula for event center parking requirements is 1 space for every 3 seats. This narrative also states that the development is designed to accommodate up to 464 seats, which at 1 space for every 3 seats, would require 155 parking spaces. The narrative states that 145 spaces will be available on -site. The Request for Flexibilities should address this proposed flexibility. Response: According to the fire marshal, the event space has a capacity of 464 people. Based on our formula/proposal of 1 car per 3 seats, it would require 155 parking spaces. Since we have 145 parking spaces, we are requesting flexibility for 10 additional parking spaces. We believe 145 parking spaces will be sufficient because we do not anticipate a time when all 464 people would be on the property simultaneously. Most events occur on weekends or after hours when the cafe and daycare services are closed except for the kitchen, leaving us with enough parking for events. b. Address Site Furnishings and Seating Areas requirements for benches and decorative plantings and functional outdoor seating area for restaurants. Response: We do not have any plans for having an outdoor seating area, the porch area on the east side of the building is a designated smoke area and would not be used for outside seating for caf6. 3. Site Plan a. Site Plan to provide a summary tabulation of minimum B-2 District Requirements and proposed project/site data (i.e. Lot Coverage by Structure, Minimum Landscape Area, Floor Area Ratio, Impervious Surface Area, Setbacks, Parking, etc.) to aid in evaluating compliance with zoning requirements. Response: B-2 District requirements and proposed site data has been added to sheet C3. b. Identification of snow storage area(s). (Note: Separate site plan or explanation of snow storage in narrative.) Response: Snow storage locations are shown on sheet C-B. Snow in excess of what can be stored in these locations will be hauled offsite.

Confirm if the proposed development will utilize the existing Utilities Plan. If not, provide Utilities Plan details. Response: Existing utilities will be utilized for the reconstruction. See sheet C3. 4. Elevation Plans/Architectural Plans a. Provide height for the building elevations. Response: The building elevation heights have been added to each elevation — see Architectural Sheets A5.0 & A5.1. b. Include details of trash enclosure on elevation drawings. Tabulation of materials to be provided. Response: This information has been added to Architectural Drawings A5.1, Details 7, 8, 9, 10 & 11. c. Include details for screening of exterior ground or roof -mounted mechanical devices, such as vents, exhaust fans, generators, and air conditioners. Response: All mechanical devices, noted above, are existing and are located on the ground along the west side of the building. There are no mechanical devices located on the roofs and no additional equipment will be added to the roofs or on the site. Response: All ground mounted mechanical equipment will be screened from view by new landscaping. Mechanical equipment will not be visible from the right of way on the western side of Snelling Ave. This is shown on the Planting Plan L1. d. Provide details for proposed delivery areas. Response: Deliveries to the building will be received through the service door on the north side of the building. This area is shown on the Architectural Drawing A2.0 & A2.1. 5. Traffic Study Response: A Traffic Study was done by SEH Engineering and submitted to the Planning Department for review. It is included in the Planning Submittal Package for distribution to the Planning Commission and City Council. 6. Circulation Plan a. Identification of internal sidewalk connections. Response: Pedestrian circulation has been added as depicted on Sheet C-C. City of Arden Hills • 1245 West Highway 96 • Arden Hills Minnesota 55112 Phone 651.792.7800 • Fax 651.634.5137 • www.cityofardenhills.org ---ARzEN HILLS b. Identification of bicycle parking. Response: Bicycle racks (7 Spaces) are proposed north of the primary entrance within the fenced area as shown on Sheet C3. 7. Truck Turning Movements Plan a. Illustration of emergency services vehicles and refuse collection circulation. (Note: turning radius information provided as an attachment) Response: Emergency service and refuse truck turning movements have been added as Sheet C-A. Signage a. The Request for Flexibilities identifies flexibility to be requested as part of a sign standard adjustment through the PUD process for deviation from Sign District 7, General Sign Regulations. The Request for Flexibilities should provide Applicant statements that address the Sign Standard Adjustment criteria (i.e. Subd. 1-3) as outlined in City Code Section 1260.01. In order to approve any sign standard adjustment, the following criteria of Subd. 1 or Subd. 2 shall be satisfied, and the necessary criteria of Subd. 3 shall be satisfied: • Subd. 1 There are site conditions which require a sign adjustment to allow the sign to be reasonably visible from a street immediately adjacent to the site; • Subd. 2 The sign adjustment will allow a sign of exceptional design or a style that will enhance the area or that is more consistent with the architecture and design of the site; • Subd. 3 The sign adjustment will not result in a sign that is inconsistent with the purpose of the zoning district in which the property is located or the current land use. b. Identify if the wall or freestanding signage will be illuminated and if so, by what mode of illumination. Response: a. The existing freestanding pole sign will be reused in its existing location. It consists of a two-sided Cabinet Sign mounted on a pole. It is internally lit with letters on translucid faces. Detail 4/A5.1 has been updated to show the height & area of the overall sign compared to the City's height & area requirements. b. There are two newly proposed illuminated wall signs shown - See Sheet A5.0 and Details #5, and 6 on A5.1 for more information. We are proposing (2) new illuminated wall signs on the new Entry Portal. One is on the east face of the Entry Portal above the portal opening. This sign Reads, "ELEGANT EVENT CENTER" and is flanked by (2) Star Symbols. The other sign is on the south face of the Entry Portal above the portal opening. This sign consists of (1) Star Symbol. These signs will be Reverse Channel construction with individual letters and stars City of Arden Hills • 1245 West Highway 96 • Arden Hills Minnesota 55112 Phone 651.792.7800 • Fax 651.634.5137 • www.cityofardenhills.org ---ARzEN HILLS symbols. The face and sides of each letter and star will be solid and opaque. They will be halo lit by using internal lighting which is emitted from the back of each letter and star symbol. Each letter and star symbol are mounted away from the wall surface behind them. This allows the lighting to hit the building material on the wall surface behind the sign creating the halo effect. 9. Landscape and Tree Preservation Plan a. Provide tabulation and/or percentage of landscape requirements for entire site including landscape lot area, perennials and/or shrubbery, caliper inches, and boulevard trees to aid in application review for compliance with B-2 Zoning District minimum requirements. Response: Percentages of total landscape area and plant coverage added to L1 sheets. b. Tabulation of size and species of all replacement trees proposed to be removed and planted on the property in accordance with the tree replacement schedule and mitigation requirements according to Section 1325.055 Tree and Landscaping Preservation. Response: Additional tables provided by the survey added to the L1 sheets along with a table of caliper mitigation measures. Your application will not be processed and the time period under Minn. Stat. § 15.99 will not begin until all of the above required information is received by the City. Items 1-9 need to be submitted to the City no later than 4 PM on Wednesday, June 12t1i, in order to be considered for review during the July meeting cycle.

SEH Building a Better World for All of Us® TO: FROM: DATE: RE: Rose Kukwa, MSHSS President/CEO Opportunity Community Services Inc. Erin Jordan, PE (Lic. IA, MN, NE, WI) June 10, 2024 Event Center Traffic Study SEH No. P179481 Attachment I MEMORANDUM The City of Arden Hills, Minnesota has requested a preliminary traffic study be completed by the Owner for the proposed development located at 3776 Connelly Ave, located on the northeast quadrant of the Hwy 51 and County Road E interchange. This technical memorandum summarizes the findings related to estimated traffic demand from the proposed development and its potential impact to the surrounding roadway network and adjacent businesses. SITE & PROPOSED DEVELPMENT OVERVIEW The site currently has an existing 11,025 square -foot (SF) building which serves as an indoor bingo hall and is zoned as General Business District (B-2). The site is accessible through one driveway located on the western corner of Connelly Ave. Connelly Ave curves around the north side of "Flahertys Arden Bowl" bowling alley and intersects with County Road E in two locations. The western intersection of County Road E and Connelley Ave is controlled by a signal; the eastern intersection is stop -controlled on Connelly Ave. The proposed development will repurpose the existing building footprint (11,025 SF) as an indoor event center ("Elegant Event Center"). The building's capacity is approximately 515 people. The operating hours are tailored to suit the community's needs, ranging between 8 AM and 11:59 PM Monday through Thursday and between 8 AM and 3 AM on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Adult Day Programs will be provided between 8AM and 4PM Monday through Thursday. The additional improvements include: • Demolish existing covered parking structure • Thickened edge sidewalk • New bituminous pavement • ADA upgrades, including ADA parking/access aisles (5), ADA ramp, truncated domes, and ADA landing • 9'x18' parking stall sizes • Adhere to parking setback requirements and removing parking closest to the entrance • Concrete sidewalk • Landscaping features See Attachment A: Preliminary Site Plan.

It should be noted that the data provided by ITE only provides one data source and should be used cautiously due to the limited sample size. However, Table 1 does show the estimated trips entering and exiting the existing site during the weekday AM and weekday PM peak hours if the building was at approximately half of its capacity (250 people) Table 1: Existing Trip Generation Summary Bingo Hall 250 People' 35 3 38 1 10 1 110 120 Notes: 'Assuming half of the Bingo Hall's capacity for comparison purposes. 20nly one data set provided by ITE for a Bingo Hall, no daily trip generation estimates are With the existing land use on site, a total of approximately 38 trips enter and exit during the AM peak hour and 120 trips enter and exit during the PM peak hour. A trip generation review was completed for the proposed event center development. However, the ITE Trip Generation Manual does not provide trip generation data for venues comparable to the proposed site. Instead, new trips were estimated based on information provided in the site plan (Attachment A) and the following assumptions for a large, maximum capacity event: • The site plan estimates that the venue has a 515-person capacity and will include a surface parking lot of 145 parking stalls (including 5 ADA-accessible stalls). It is assumed that all event parking will be on -site and no parking will occur outside of the designated surface lot. Trip generation analysis uses the parking capacity to estimate the new trips. • Trips will enter and exit at the current driveway. • 10% of people will arrive prior to main peak hour for other attendees (staff, vendors, etc.). It is assumed that there will be one vehicle per attendees that arrives early (15 vehicles). • 90% of vehicles will arrive during the same one -hour period. It is assumed that attendees will carpool to the event, with approximately 3 people per vehicle (130 vehicles). • Larger events are expected to last longer than one hour, so it is assumed that new trips will be entering and exiting during different hours. • The venue includes a reception area, which indicates that the exiting traffic will be dispersed over 1-2 hours. Therefore, a lower rate for exiting vehicles is applied. Based on these assumptions/factors, the following rates are approximated based on the venue's capacity': o Entering: 0.25 with 100% entering (130 trips) o Exiting: 0.12 (0.25 x 40%) (62 trips) Based on these assumptions and using the maximum on -site parking capacity of 145 spaces, the venue could generate approximately 130 entering trips in a one -hour period prior to the event and 62 exiting trips after the event. It is expected that the peak activity will occur on a weekend evening, during off-peak hours from adjacent street networks and surrounding businesses. Compared to the existing Bingo Hall use, there is an additional 120 trips entering in one hour and fewer trips (48) expected in the exit during one hour. ' Spack, M. (2018, February 13). Estimating Trip Generation and Distribution for a Wedding Venue. Mike on Traffic. Retrieved from mikeontraffic.com Page 3 As a conservative estimate, the proposed development is expected to generate less than 400 trips in one day (including the weekday, Adult Day Program activity), which would likely be on a weekend, with an evening event at maximum capacity. TRIP DISTRIBUTION As part of this preliminary study, traffic counts were not collected at the study intersections/driveways. Based on MnDOT historic daily traffic data collected in 2022, there are approximately 6,800 daily trips on County Road E west of Highway 51 and approximately 13,300 daily trips east of County Road E east of Highway 51. This existing distribution of traffic was used to approximate the number of trips entering and exiting the single driveway. It is understood that traffic would likely enter from Snelling Ave interchange from the south, but for this preliminary review it is assumed that all traffic will enter/exit on County Road E. The following assumptions were made regarding the trip distribution activity to demonstrate a "worst -case" scenario: • 40% of traffic comes/goes from the west along County Road E o All traffic will enter and exit using signalized intersection at Connelly Ave • 60% of traffic comes/goes from the east along County Road E o All traffic will enter and exit enter signalized intersection at Connelly Ave Based on the above trip distribution assumptions, the following PM peak hour trips are expected to be generated by the new development: • Site Driveway on Connelly Ave: o Peak Hour Entering (1 hour before event) ■ Northbound Left: 130 vehicles (100% x 130 trips) o Peak Hour Exiting (after event) ■ Southbound Right: 62 vehicles (100% x 62) • County Road Eat Connelly Ave (Signal): o Peak Hour Entering (1 hour before event) ■ Eastbound Left: 50 vehicles (40% x 130 trips) ■ Westbound Right: 80 vehicles (50% x 130 trips) o Peak Hour Exiting (after event) ■ Southbound Right: 25 vehicles (40% x 62) • Southbound Left: 37 vehicles (60% x 62) CONCLUSION Based on the results of this preliminary traffic study for the proposed Event Center development at 3776 Connelly Ave, the anticipated traffic generated is not expected to impact the operations or safety of Connelly Avenue nor its intersections with County Road E. It is expected that the peak hours of events may conflict for a short amount of time with other adjacent businesses, but it is recommended to monitor the activity to understand if any recommendations or control should be implemented. It is expected that the signal at County Road E and Connelly Ave will be able to accommodate the additional entering traffic for maximum capacity events. However, it is recommended that the City monitor the timings and make minor adjustments as needed to accommodate the additional demand from the redevelopment. ekj Attachment A: Proposed Site t:\sptr\users\ejordan\pursuits\2024.06.07 arden hills traffic study\2024.06.07_3776 connelly ave event center traffic study.docx 2 g;: e )r !) 32 2 K w j , .

PC Agenda Item — 3B lt ,-iIZEN�HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: July 10, 2024 TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners FROM: Elena Fransen, Senior Planner SUBJECT: Planning Case #24-014 — Public Hearing Required Applicant: Rose Kukwa Property Location: 3776 Connelly Avenue Request: Zoning Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review Requested Action Rose Kukwa ("The Applicant") is requesting a Zoning Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review to redevelop the existing approximately 11,000 square foot commercial building on the property at 3776 Connelly Avenue ("Subject Property"). The proposal includes a request to allow the use of an Event Center in the B-2 General Business Zoning District, to serve alcohol and food through a State licensed caterer of liquor and food, and for renovations to the exterior of the building. Background 1.Overview of Request The Applicant has submitted a land use application for a Zoning Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review to redevelop the existing approximately 11,000 square foot commercial building on the property at 3776 Connelly Avenue. The Subject Property is currently owned by Standout Properties, LLC and the building is occupied by the Northern Lights Bingo Hall and Bright Side Cafe. The Applicant is proposing to renovate the existing building and resurface the parking lot. The Applicant is proposing a phased development with the event center established in Phase I and restaurant and adult day care uses to be established in Phase II and Phase IIl, respectively. The Applicant is seeking review and approval for Phases I and II at this time. The Applicant presented a concept review at the City Council Work session on March 11, 2024. Councilmembers provided feedback on the existing parking lot, landscaping, on -site parking, as well as the process for serving liquor. Page 1 of 24 This commercial corridor is accessible by way of County Road E West. This area is used by a number of small and large businesses for a variety of retail, manufacturing, distribution, warehousing, and office uses. 2. History of the Subject Property The Subject Property was developed in 1986 as a bingo hall consisting of the approximately 11,000 square foot principal structure. A site plan review was required for this development as the property had previously been used as a lumber site. The property changed ownership in 1991 and 2020 with its continued use as a bingo hall which falls under the Commercial Recreation, Indoor land use definition in the City's Zoning Code. In 2020, the property's kitchen was remodeled and the Brightside Caf6 was opened within the existing bingo hall. In 2021, the Brightside Caf6 was approved for a liquor license effective in 2022. In 2023, Northern Lights Bingo Hall ceased bingo game operations and the Subject Property started to be used for organized sports, which also falls under the definition of a Commercial Recreation, Indoor land use with the installation of turf for the rental use of soccer clubs for practices. A liquor license for the Brightside Caf6 was maintained through the end of 2023 but was not renewed for 2024. Approvals 1. Zoning Code Amendment The Applicant is proposing to use the property as an Event Center. Currently, the city code is absent of land use language permitting an Event Center use or establishing standards for the development or operation of an event center within any zoning district. To allow this land use, the City's Zoning Code would need to be amended to add a definition for an Event Center and to designate this type of land use within a zoning district. The proposed Event Center would not be permitted without a zoning code amendment. As part of the land use application, the Applicant has proposed for the use of an event center to be allowed in the B-2 General Business Zoning District through a conditional use permit. The Applicant has stated that the addition of an event center as a conditional use in the B-2 Zoning District aligns with the districts purpose of accommodating commercial activities that serve the local community. The other approvals noted in the land use application would not be applicable unless the Event Center use is permitted within the B-2 General Business Zoning District. 2. Planned Unit Development A Planned Unit Development (PUD) is required for all new development and redevelopment in the B-2 District. In addition, a PUD would allow for performance standard flexibility. This proposal involves both the initial Master Plan PUD and the Final PUD for Phase I and II. Under the PUD Master Plan, the Applicant shall provide details for each stage of development, but would be required to seek the PUD Final Plan approval of Phase III at the time of establishing the future use of an adult day care. The Applicant has provided details in the Architectural Plans (Attachment G) which identifies how the Subject Property would be utilized in Phase I as an event center, Phase II as a restaurant, and Phase III as an adult day care. The Planning Commission should consider the different phases of development while considering the Master and Final PUD as proposed in this application. In this application, the Applicant is seeking approval for Phase I, the event center, and Phase II, which includes the restaurant. The Applicant states in the narrative that Phase II Page 2 of 24 would begin immediately after the completion of Phase I for the event center with the restaurant being operational once a liquor license is obtained. Site Plan ----- _ T_ "(D 3. Conditional Use Permit The Applicant is proposing that in the B-2 District, a Conditional Use Permit is required for an event center. Typical factors to consider in the evaluation of the CUP request may be hours of operation, potential noise from the proposed use, lights from vehicles, and on -site traffic. The Applicant is proposing all events will be held inside the building to contain noise within the venue Page 3 of 24 and their request includes supplementary materials related to a security plan and traffic considerations. City Code 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 and the community, 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. Other Approvals As part of the land use application, the Applicant is proposing an amendment to the City Code to add an event center as a type of business licensed in Arden Hills and to allow for the on -sale liquor sales at an event center through a state licensed caterer. These amendments are proposed in Chapter 3 and 5 of the City Code which establish business licensing and the standards for alcoholic beverages in the City, respectively. Due to State Statute, an event center cannot hold a liquor license. The Applicant has stated in their narrative that in Phase I of the redevelopment, the proposed event center would provide food and alcohol services through caterers with State Licenses. As part of Phase II, the Applicant intends to open the restaurant and to obtain a city liquor license for the restaurant to enhance the dining experience and complement event catering. The Applicant notes that while the intent is to operate the restaurant on the property to serve both food and alcohol, there could be occasions that external catering is utilized to accommodate specific culinary preferences. Allowing the proposed event center to serve alcohol with a licensed caterer would provide for more flexible and inclusive services. City Code text amendments to Chapter 3 and 5 are part of this land use application. The Planning Commission will not be asked to make a finding of fact or consider motion language for the Chapter 3 and 5 City Code amendments. The City Council will review those amendments at a later scheduled date. Zoning Code Text Amendments The purpose of the B-2 General Business District is to: • Be a place in which people can live, work and play. • Create a compact, architecturally diverse, pedestrian- and bicycle -friendly community with a distinct identity. Page 4 of 24 • Provide a connected sidewalk system and places for people to gather and socialize. To implement design standards to promote an attractive environment with lasting and sustainable value. • Group compatible retail and service business uses that tend to draw trade that is naturally interchangeable and promotes business prosperity. • Provide an adequate supply of businesses and professional service areas to meet the needs of the residents. • Minimize the effects of traffic congestion, noise, odor, glare and similar safety problems. According to the Applicant, the proposed ordinance amendment will support the growth and diversification of the local economy while meeting the evolving needs of the community. The Applicant references that event centers have become increasingly popular as venues for various social and corporate events and that allowing for these dedicated facilities would enhance the city's attractiveness as a destination for such gatherings. As proposed, the text amendment would define an Event Center and designate this type of land use as a conditional use in the B-2 General Business District. The Applicant has also proposed Off Street Parking Spaces Required for an Event Center use, specifying 1 space for every 3 seats as the required number of spaces. Staff has prepared text amendments based on the Applicant's narrative as well as a few other criteria suggested by Staff (based on a survey of neighboring communities) for "Event Center" language within Sections 1305.04 Definitions, 1320.05 Land Use Chart, 1320.085 Special Requirements for the B-2 General Business District, and 1325.06 Requirements for Parking, Loading and Circulation. Applicant's Narrative: 1) Add Event Center as a use permitted by a conditional use permit in the B-2 Zoning District in Section 1320.05 Land Use Chart. 2) Establish parking requirements for event centers at 1 parking space per three seats at design capacity in Section 1325.06 Requirements for Parking, Loading and Circulation. Additional Code Amendments to consider: 3) Add a definition for Event Center within Section 1305.04 Definitions a. Event Center: An establishment which is rented by individuals or groups to host scheduled private events including but not limited to weddings, cultural celebrations, corporate functions, and banquets. Such use may or may not include 1) kitchen facilities for the preparation or catering of food; 2) the sale of alcoholic beverages for on -premises consumption only during scheduled events and not open to the general public; and 3) outdoor gardens, patios or outdoor gathering areas. 4) Amend Section 1320.085 Special Requirements for the B-2 General Business District a. Create a new Subdivision 6 — Event Center Additional Conditional Use Permit Criteria that establishes the requirements and criteria for a conditional use permit for Event Center as a conditional use in the B-2 District. Proposed language: A. In addition to meetingthe he requirements of Section 1325 and 1355.04 Subd 4, event centers shall conform to the following: Page 5 of 24 1. The occupancv of the buildiniz must never exceed the occupancv load posted based on the Fire Marshal's determination. 2. The serving of alcohol shall be subject to Minnesota State Statute and Chapter 5 - Alcoholic Beverages of the Arden Hills City Code requirements and is permitted only in conjunction with a private event that is not open to the public. 3. Licensing information from the Ramsey County Sheriff's Office may be requested by City. City could at its discretion request licensing information from the County Sheriffs Office. 4. A security plan shall be submitted and approved by the City, 5. A noise mitigation strategy shall be submitted and approved by the City. B. In addition to meetingthe he requirements of Section 1325 and 1355.04 Subd 4, the City may: 1. Prohibit access from a predominantly residential street; 2. Restrict the hours of operation for loading _ docks; ocks; 3. Require greater than minimum setbacks for structures and driveways; 4. Require opaque screening to eliminate headlight lg are; 5. Impose any other restriction it deems to be in the public interest. For research, staff conducted a survey of other local ordinances and found that Cities of New Brighton, Roseville, Shoreview, Little Canada and Vadnais Heights have language that allows for similar uses with a majority of communities requiring a conditional use permit in at least one commercial zoning district. Parking requirements were also reviewed and fell between one (1) space for every three (3) seats and one (1) space for every four (4) seats. Staff reached out to New Brighton and heard that the primary concerns were proximity to residential neighborhoods and the liquor licensing of vendors. Staff has drafted special requirements for event centers language that considers these potential concerns. The Planning Commission could suggest additional language for the requirements for an event center use related to proximity to residential neighborhoods and parking requirements. The Applicant has requested for the use of an Event Center to be allowed in the B-2 General Business Zoning District through a conditional use permit. The text amendment as drafted would add "Event Center" as a use permitted by a conditional use permit in the B-2 District and would add additional criteria to Section 1320.085 Special Requirements for the B-2 General Business District. The Planning Commission may consider adding the Event Center use permitted by a conditional use permit to additional zoning districts. If identified as an amendment, the Special Requirements could be moved from Section 1320.085 and added to General Regulations in a new Section 1325.047 titled Event Center Additional Conditional Use Permit Criteria. The requirements would then be applicable to the zoning districts that the Planning Commission recommends an Event Center be permitted by conditional use permit. The following are items identified by staff that the Planning Commission may wish to discuss and consider: • Zoning Districts • Permitted hours of operation in the ordinance. • Permitted maximum occupancy in the ordinance. • Specifying if outdoor space is permitted for an event center and if there would be additional requirements. Page 6 of 24 The Planning Commission is asked to review the drafted text amendments and provide comment and suggest applicable revisions to the text as drafted. An ordinance amendment to the Zoning Code requires a public hearing before the Planning Commission. Plan Evaluation Overview of Proposal Redevelopment The Applicant is proposing the redevelopment of the Subject Property as the Elegant Event Center. Improvements will be made to the exterior finishes of the principal structure, the parking lot, and the site's landscaping. Existing conditions for the site can be found on the site survey in Attachment E. The principal structure will remain on site with enhanced building materials and the proposed plans show the addition of a trash enclosure to the north side of the Subject Property. The parking lot improvements include the removal of the existing covered parking structure and the addition of parking islands for additional landscaping and area lighting for the parking lot. Changes to the parking lot include a removal of several existing parking spaces near the property driveway and the establishment of ADA ramps and surfaces and handicap accessible parking spaces. The Applicant states that the plan is to improve and restore both the building and the property so that it will enhance, not detract, from the surrounding area. Business Operations The Applicant is proposing that the Subject Property be used for three different uses within the same principal structure and that these uses will be established through a phased approach. The space is conceived to be shared among the uses with some overlap as noted in the evaluation below. Phase I - Event Center In Phase I, scheduled until December 2024, the building and other site improvements would be completed, and the Event Center use would be established. The proposed hours of operation for the event center are 8:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. Friday through Sunday. The Applicant is requesting City Code Amendments to be allowed to serve liquor and would propose liquor service ending at 2:00 a.m. During Phase I, the Applicant is proposing that food and liquor for the event center will be served through a caterer that holds State licenses for food and liquor. The proposed occupancy for the event center is 464 people, which would include event staff. Access to the event center spaces will be provided through the building's main entry. Patrons would pass through the existing restaurant space to enter the main hall. The existing kitchen is directly adjacent to the main hall space. The main hall space also has access to the existing covered patio space, which will be utilized as a designated smoking area with fencing enclosing the space from the parking lot. Other spaces in the building that could be used during an event include bride and groom suites and an office for event staff.

For security, the building is equipped with at least 24 security cameras around and inside the building for monitoring of all areas and there are two police panic buttons inside the building to alert local law enforcement of incidents. The Applicant is proposing that during events there will be onsite security officers to control access points to prevent unauthorized entry, ensure alcohol is not taken onto the patio area, and maintain safety conditions for attendees. Alcohol management is also noted, with a plan for strict protocols for the serving of alcohol to monitor consumption, prevent overconsumption, and ensure compliance with laws and regulations. For noise control, the Applicant proposes a plan, stating all events will be held inside the building to contain noise. Additionally, the use of concrete in the building walls can effectively soundproof and prevent noise from leaving the building, which can reduce the impact of noise on the surrounding community. Security measures will also help manage noise in outdoor areas by managing and dispersing groups that congregate outside, particularly in the designated smoking area. The Applicant is seeking approval for Phase I with this application. The Planning Commission should consider the proposed plans for the Event Center use and the supplementary plans for security and noise management when evaluating the PUD and CUP criteria. Phase II - Restaurant In Phase II, which the Applicant notes will begin immediately after Phase I, involves opening the restaurant area. The Applicant's proposed intent is to obtain a liquor license to provide liquor service on -site once the restaurant is operational. Liquor services would be available to the restaurant as well as the event center during restaurant hours. Currently, on -sale intoxicating liquor licenses are limited to hotels, restaurant, clubs, or exclusive liquor stores. The Applicant states that Page 8 of 24 while the in-house restaurant is intended to serve food and alcohol to events, the event center would on occasion work with external caterers to accommodate specific culinary preferences or cuisines that the restaurant cannot provide. The Applicant reasons that working with outside caterers will support the event center's flexibility and inclusivity of services. The restaurant would use the existing cafe footprint and the proposed restaurant occupancy capacity is 34 seats and five (5) employees to meet staffing needs. Patrons of the restaurant would access the space through the main entry which would lead them directly to the restaurant space which is not being reconfigured from the existing floor plan. The restaurant would utilize the existing on -site kitchen. In Attachment D, the Applicant stated that the restaurant would be operational when the event center space is in use to provide food and beverages to the event but that the restaurant would not be open to the public while the event center is in use. Based on the definitions of a restaurant in Chapter 5 — Alcoholic Beverages, a restaurant with these operational restrictions would not be eligible for an on -sale intoxicating liquor license. Following discussion with Staff, the Applicant has provided an update to the proposal, stating that the restaurant would be open to the public during regular business hours and while the event space is in use for private events. The Applicant provided hours of operations specific to the restaurant use, stating that the restaurant's hours of operations will be 8:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. Monday through Sunday. The Applicant is seeking approval for Phase II with this application.

The Applicant is working with the Minnesota Department of Human Services to modify an existing Home and Community -Based Services license. The adult day car program would offer activities such as educational programs, arts and crafts, supervised field trips, board games, and group fitness exercise sessions. The adult day care use would use the main hall of the event center and a floor plan for the use is shown below. The Applicant has stated that the event center use would not overlap with the adult day care use due to the nature of both uses using the main hall of the building. The adult day care space is shown as accessible through the main entry and the side door with access to the covered patio. The proposed occupancy is twenty (20) service participants and four (4) staff. The proposed hours of operations for Adult Day Programs are 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday. The Applicant notes that the restaurant will be operational during the hours of the adult day care to provide lunches to the day care members. Adult day care facility is a permitted use in the B-2 General Business Zoning District. However, the Applicant will be required to submit for a PUD Amendment as part of the phasing plan. A full evaluation of the future adult day care use will be provided once the PUD Amendment is submitted. The Planning Commission should consider the Phase III use with this application and provide comment about possible provisions for this use as it relates to an event center and restaurant within the same shared building.

This area may also include medium to high density housing with a potential density of three (3) to twenty (20) units per acre. The proposed site plan is attached as Attachment F. Restaurants are a permitted use within this district. The table below provides the performance standards for the B-2 District and the preliminary analysis for the proposed development of the principal structure and the site: Ordinance Requirements B-2 District Standards Proposed Development Maximum Floor Area 0.8 .17 (existing) Ratio Maximum Structure 45% 17% (existing) Coverage Minimum Landscape Lot 20% 23.34% (proposed) Area Minimum Front Yard 50 feet 48.8 feet (existing) Setback Minimum Rear Yard 20 feet +/- 160 feet (existing) Setback Minimum Side Yard 10 feet (min)/20 feet 19.5 feet/ +/-140 feet Setback total(existing) Minimum Lot Area 13,000 square feet 2.19 acres/94,543 square feet(existing) Maximum Building Height 50 feet 20 feet, 11 7/8" +/- existin 2. Design Standards — Section 1325.05 and 1325.055 A. Exterior Materials — Flexibility Requested At least seventy-five (75) percent of the exterior building materials should be made of brick masonry, tile masonry, natural stone or its synthetic equivalent, decorative concrete plank, transparent glass or any combination thereof. Trim and other accent or decorative features may be metal, wood, split faced block, EIFS, or stucco. Metals shall have a matte finish and have visible corner moldings and trim when used on exterior walls. Undesirable materials include simulated brick, vinyl or aluminum siding, sheet or corrugated metal siding, plain concrete blocks or panels, brightly colored metal roofing or canopies, pre -cast tilt -up walls, and mirrored or reflective glass. Building colors shall be muted. Recommended colors include browns, grays, tans, beiges, and dark or muted green, blues, and reds. Bright or brilliant colors and sharply contrasting colors may be used for only accent purposes occupying a maximum of five percent (5%) of building facades. The Planning Commission should evaluate the architectural style and building character based on the quality of its design and on its relationship to its surroundings. Site characteristics to be evaluated for this purpose include, but are not limited to, building and landscaping materials, Page 11 of 24 colors, textures, shapes, massing, building components, height, roof -line, and setback. A full plan set of building elevations is included as Attachment G. Staff has provided the review below on building materials as shared by the Applicant in order for the Planning Commission to attain a better understanding of the full scope of their project design. Building Materials — Flexibility Requested The proposed building elevations consist of brick veneer, transparent glass, metal panels, and wood. The Applicant has requested for the brick veneer to be considered preferred materials as the brick would be actual clay brick, approximately half (1/2) an inch to five eighths (5/8) of an inch thick. Each brick would be individually installed with mortar joints. The Applicant has also requested flexibility from the 75% desirable materials requirement on the south building elevation where there is an existing tall parapet wall above an existing overhang. The Applicant states that there is a concern about this parapet wall's ability to accept additional weight from desirable materials such as brick masonry, tile masonry or natural stone. The proposed south elevation shows metal panels used on the existing parapet wall and the materials for the elevation would consist of 63% desirable materials and 37% accent materials. If these flexibilities in building materials are granted, the Applicant will have met the 75% threshold with desired materials on three elevations based on the calculated use of brick and transparent glass. The Applicant states that the exterior finishes for all elevations would equal 89% desirable materials and 11 % accent materials.

If the building is a one story design and the first floor elevation exceeds 12 feet, then only the first 12 feet shall be included in calculating the facade area. The south and east elevations of the existing building have some frontage on Connelly Avenue. The Applicant is seeking flexibility from the transparency standard due to the construction of the existing building and the nature of the proposed use. The east elevation of the building is constructed of concrete block with existing covered openings near the roofline. It would be difficult to add a significant number of windows into the existing concrete block walls to meet the 50% requirement. The Applicant also states that the function of an event space requires a certain level of privacy and that windows viewing the activity inside the space would not be conducive to the activity. The Applicant offers that the existing main entrance at the southeast corner of the building consists of glass windows and glass entry doors with additional windows on the south wall. The proposal includes plans to maintain the main entry to allow views of the activities in the restaurant and bar areas of the building. The proposal would still enhance the existing building's appearance while serving the functions inside. B. Building Positioning — Nonconforming Section 1325.05 Subd. 8, E of the Arden Hills City Code states "at least fifty percent (50%) of the largest building on each site shall be constructed at the front setback line." The minimum front yard setback for the B-2 District is 50 feet and the existing front setback line is at 48.8 feet, which encroaches into the minimum setback. The Applicant is not proposing changes to the existing setback and would maintain the existing setback with the proposed development. C. Lighting — Flexibility Requested The Zoning Code requires exterior lighting to be consistent in type, design, scale, and color to create unity in the Districts. Exterior lighting for parking lots and buildings shall not be excessive and shall be directed at their intended purposes. Any light or combination of lights shall not cast light that exceeds a meter reading of one foot candle on the travel lanes of adjoining public streets or 0.4 foot candles on adjoining residential property. Page 13 of 24 The proposed lighting plan includes poly mounted area lights and wall lights to be installed at the south and east elevations. The proposed lighting is consistent with the use and the surrounding area. The Applicant has submitted a photometric plan that identifies the types of light fixtures and quantities. The Subject Property is not adjacent to a residential property. The photometric plan shows that proposed lighting at one location will exceed a meter reading of one foot candle on Connelly Avenue with a reading of 1.4 foot candles. As a condition of approval, all lighting shall be downward directed shoebox style with flush lenses. Details about the proposed lighting are found in Attachment H. D. Site Furnishings — Flexibility Requested Section 1325.05 Subd. 8, J, establishes provisions for site furnishings and seating areas for new development, redevelopment, and modifications to existing sites in the B-2 District. Per the code, benches and decorative plantings shall be provided near the primary entrance of all buildings on a site. The Applicant has not indicated plans for benches or plantings to be placed near the entrance to the proposed event center. Also noted in J of Subd. 8, restaurants shall include a functional outdoor seating area with tables, chairs, planting and access to the restaurant. As a restaurant is part of the Master PUD, and the use will be established at the Subject Property in Phase II of development, the proposed development is subject to this requirement. The Applicant noted in this application that there are no plans for an outdoor seating area and that the porch area on the east side of the building is a designated smoke area and would not be used for outside seating for the restaurant or the event center. The Applicant also stated as part of the narrative that the proposed development is intended to be fully enclosed to ensure noise is contained within the venue. The Planning Commission may comment on the proposed site furnishings as they apply to both Phase I and Phase II of development. E. Screening — For Review Under Section 1325.05, Subd. 8, K, Trash and recycling equipment, materials, and containers shall be fully enclosed and integrated into the architecture of the buildings. All mechanical equipment, whether roof -mounted or ground -mounted should be integrated into the architecture of the building. It shall be completely screened from the ground -level view of adjacent properties and public streets. Wood screening shall not be permitted. There is a trash enclosure proposed for the Subject Property and located on the north side of the site. This enclosure will feature metal trash enclosure gates and the other three elevations will be constructed of a metal panel material consistent with the building design. The Applicant has noted that all mechanical equipment is located on the ground along the west side of the building. There are no existing roof -mounted systems, and none will be added as part of the proposed development. The Applicant is proposing all ground mounted mechanical equipment will be screened from view by new on -site landscaping which is shown in the landscaping plans in Attachment F. The Applicant states that the equipment will not be visible from the right of way on the west side of Snelling Avenue. The Planning Commission should comment as part of the review if the proposed screening is sufficient. F. Landscaping — Flexibility Requested Page 14 of 24 Section 1320.06 — District Requirements Chart of the City Code requires a minimum landscape lot area of 20% or 18,908.6 square feet for the Subject Property in the B-2 District. The Applicant is proposing a landscape lot area of approximately 23.34% percent or 22,067 square feet. Additionally, at least 10% or 2,206.7 square feet of the total landscaped area (i.e. 22,067 square feet) shall be covered with perennials and/or shrubbery. The Applicant is proposing perennial and/or shrubbery of approximately 23.63% or 5,214.5 square feet. Planting islands shall occupy 10% or 6,478.8 square feet of the parking area (i.e. 64,788 square feet). The landscaping plans show seven (7) proposed parking islands but do not indicate the total square feet of the provided planting islands. Additionally, per City Code, planting islands shall be edged with concrete curbs. Parking lot planting islands shall be a minimum of 150 square feet in area, be of appropriate width and length, and include at least one tree to meet the requirements of this ordinance. The Applicant has stated a request for flexibility from the planting islands requirements for concrete curbs and one tree per parking lot planting island. Plans show that six (6) of the seven (7) parking lot planting islands will not have a tree planted and that one (1) planting island would have three (3) trees planted. The request notes that the proposed plans do not include new curb and gutter for parking lot planting islands in order to maintain existing drainage patterns and to allow site lighting in lieu of trees within six (6) of the proposed islands to provide adequate lighting to the site. The site contains approximately 145 caliper inches of significant trees. Section 1325.055 Subd. 5 allows for the removal of fewer than ten (10) percent of the caliper inches of significant trees on the property without requiring mitigation. Ten percent of 145 is 14.5 caliper inches. The Applicant proposes removing 118 caliper inches of trees, meaning the Applicant is responsible for mitigation of 103.5 caliper inches removed above 10 percent. Per Section 1325.055 Subd 6, the number of caliper inches of trees required for replanting is determined at a rate of 1:2 or one inch replaced for every two inches lost. The Applicant intends to replace the 61 caliper inches required based on the total inches removed and the rate of replacement. Existing 10% of Proposed Inches in Required Proposed Existing Removal excess of 10% Replacement Replacement 145 caliper 14.5 caliper 118 caliper 103.5 caliper 51.75 caliper 61 caliper inches inches inches inches inches inches The City Code requires a minimum of one (1) tree be provided along the right-of-way of every 50 feet of public street frontage. The Subject Property survey shows the south property line with frontage on Connelly Avenue has 248 feet of frontage. The proposed development would be required to plant five (5) trees along the Connelly Avenue right-of-way. Right-of-way tree plantings are not shown in the plans and is considered a request for flexibility. G. Snow Storage — For Review Adequate area should be designed for snow storage such that clear visibility shall be afforded from the property to any public street. The Applicant has identified in their narrative and on a Plan Sheet C-B in the Civil Plans (Attachment F) that snow storage would be located at the four corners of the property. The plan shows that if the snow accumulation exceeds capacity available for on -site storage, the Applicant intends to have snow hauled off -site with a snow removal vendor. H. Parking Setbacks — Meets Requirements Page 15 of 24 The City Code requires off-street parking spaces to be located a minimum of 20 feet from the right-of-way of any public street. The Applicant has satisfied this requirement and has an approximately 28-foot setback from the ROW along Connelly Avenue. For side and rear setbacks, off-street parking spaces are required to be located a minimum of 5 feet from rear and side lot lines. The paving plan shown on Plan Sheet C3 in the Civil Plans indicates parking spaces will be setback ten (10) feet from the west side property line, five (5) feet from the north rear property line, and five (5) feet from the east side property. Plans indicate that the Applicant would satisfy the requirements for off-street parking space setbacks. I. Number of Parking Stalls — Flexibility Requested Per City Code 1325.06, there are general categories that determine the number of parking spaces that would need to be provided, but an event center as a principal use is not specifically identified. As part of the land use application for a Zoning Code Amendment, the Applicant has provided the following provisions to apply based on the proposed use as an event center: • Event Center — one (1) parking space for every three (3) seats at designed capacity. The Applicant is proposing the replacement of the existing parking lot with 145 parking stalls including 5 accessible stalls. Based on a review of Ramsey County Aerial Data from 2022, the Subject Property was last identified to have 74 striped parking spaces. The proposed parking replacement would result in a decrease of approximately 2,000 square feet in parking lot. The proposal includes the addition of parking islands for lighting and landscaping that do not exist on site. The proposed plan for Phase I would consist of an event center building of approximately 11,000 square feet with a designed capacity for 464 people. At the proposed provision for the minimum off-street parking requirement, the proposed design capacity of 464 people would require 155 spaces. As such, the Applicant is seeking flexibility to provide 145 parking spaces instead of the calculated requirement of 155 for the event center use. The Applicant states that 145 spaces will be sufficient as it is not anticipated to have 464 people on site simultaneously. It is noted that attendees of conferences, weddings, and performances often carpool, resulting in a higher average car occupancy. The requested flexibility would allow for a balance between providing parking and maintaining landscaping within the community. In Phase II, the proposed restaurant use is evaluated based on the provisions for a Restaurants, Bars use: • Restaurants, Bards — one (1) for every two (2) seats. The proposed plan for Phase II would consist of the restaurant portion of the building with a designed capacity of 34 people. Based on this provision, 17 parking spaces would be required. As the event center and restaurant uses would be operational simultaneously, the parking requirements for both uses apply. A minimum of 172 parking spaces would be required for the event center and restaurant. By proposing 145 parking spaces for the site, the Applicant is seeking flexibility for the 27 parking spaces not provided. The Applicant states that the 145 parking spaces should be sufficient as it is not anticipated that there will be a time when the 464 person occupancy capacity is reached on site. The Planning Commission should review the requested flexibility for parking to determine if the parking proposed is sufficient for the proposed development with the event center and restaurant uses. Page 16 of 24 J. Traffic Study and Site Circulation — For Review The site currently has one access point to the Subject Property along Connelly Avenue and no changes are proposed to the current configuration. Under Section 1325.05, Subd. 8, a traffic study shall be required for all new developments, redevelopments, and significant modifications to existing sites. A traffic study has been prepared (see Attachment I for summary section of report). The traffic report compares the Phase I event center proposal to the existing bingo hall use during weekday AM and PM peak hours. The memo dated June 10, 2024 prepared by SEH notes that the redevelopment of the site to an event center is expected to generate approximately 130 entering trips in a one -hour period prior to an event and 62 exiting trips after the event. The Phase II restaurant use was not included in the provided traffic comparison or summary. Compared to the existing use, there would be an additional 120 trips entering in one hour and fewer trips expected to exit during one hour after an event. It is anticipated that the proposed business would generate less than 400 trips in one day, likely on a weekend with an evening event at maximum capacity. The Memo concludes that the anticipated traffic generated is not expected to impact the operations or safety of Connelly Avenue or its intersections with County Road E. The peak hours of events may conflict for a short amount of time with other adjacent businesses and the signal at County Road E and Connelly Avenue to monitor timings and make minor adjustments as needed. The Applicant was asked to demonstrate how larger trucks would maneuver internally. The Applicant did provide as part of their submission illustrating vehicle movements. This plan sheet is included in the civil plans within Attachment F. The Fire Marshall is still reviewing this application and has yet to provide formal comments. K. Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation — For Review Pedestrian and bicycle improvements shall be installed in accordance with the City of Arden Hills Comprehensive Plan. The Applicant has provided a pedestrian circulation plan as part of the Civil Plans which shows site navigation for pedestrians. There is not an existing public sidewalk or trail network for an internal sidewalk system to link to adjacent to the Subject Property. The Applicant is proposing a bicycle rack/bicycle parking as part of this development located near the southeast corner of the building. The submitted Civil Plans show seven (7) bicycle spaces. City Code Section 1325.05 Subd, 8, Q does require one (1) space for every 20 parking spaces. Commercial developments are required to have a minimum of two (2) bicycle parking spaces. L. Freestanding Signs — Nonconforming, Flexibility Requested The Subject Property is located in Sign District 7. Properties in Sign District 7 are allowed one (1) freestanding sign measuring up to 25 square feet in copy area and not exceeding 8 feet in height. Freestanding signs shall be located at least five (5) feet from any property line. Sign copy area is defined as the area in square feet of the smallest rectangle, circle, or triangle that contains the sign copy. Signs in Sign District 7 may be lit by external illumination only. The Applicant is proposing to reface an existing freestanding pole sign located on the west side of the property. The existing pole sign is nonconforming with the height, illumination, and sign copy area requirements for freestanding signs in Sign District 7. The proposed internally illuminated sign would be approximately 16 feet in height and have a total sign copy area of approximately 23.2 square feet. Also, the total area of a freestanding sign shall not exceed 1.5 times the permitted sign copy area of said sign which would be 34.8 square feet for this application. The proposed Page 17 of 24 freestanding sign has a total area of 40.4 square feet. The sign plans are shown on Page A5.1 in Attachment G.

Wall Signs — Flexibility Requested Properties in Sign District 7 are allowed wall signs up to 45 square feet and signs may be externally and internally illuminated. The Applicant is proposing one (1) internally illuminated 41 square foot wall sign to be located on the east elevation above the main entry. The sign plans also show a graphic sign located on the south elevation above the main entry. The city code defines a graphic sign as "a sculpture attached to or sign painted directly on a wall that is primarily symbolic or representational in nature and not alpha or numeric in content or copy." The sign ordinance does not permit graphic signs in Sign District 7. The Applicant is seeking flexibility to install the graphic wall sign. �1 !.4 CANOPY -SOUTH r1 CANOPY - EAST._.._--__ ._-....,_.

The complaint is vehicles do not stop or yield while existing which causes issues with traffic on Connelly Avenue. Fire Marshal The Fire Marshal is currently reviewing the plans. No additional conditions have been included at this time. Findings of Fact Zoning Code Text Amendment Findings: 1. Rose Kukwa, the Applicant, is proposing amendments to the language of Chapter 13 — Zoning Code of the City Code. 2. Under the City's Zoning Code Section 1305.04, Definitions, the City does not define an event center use. 3. The Applicant is proposing an amendment to define an event center and allow for the use in the B-2 General Business District through a conditional use permit. 4. The Applicant is proposing additional criteria in the ordinance language to establish a minimum parking requirement of 1 parking per 3 seats at design capacity. 5. Of local communities surveyed, the majority allow an event center use through a conditional use permit in at least one commercial zoning district. 6. Amendments to the Zoning Code regulations require a public hearing prior to action by the City Council. Planned Unit Development and Conditional Use Permit Findings: 1. The property located at 3776 Connelly Avenue is designated for Community Mixed uses on the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. 2. New building construction or site modification identified requires the submittal of a Site Plan Review application prior to construction. 3. For proposals for new construction, redevelopment of a site, and significant modifications to existing sites a PUD is required. 4. The PUD process allows for flexibility within the City's regulations through a negotiated process with a Developer. 5.

Chair Weber commented on how the City would be taking a significant loss on this project. He discussed how the City was struggling to find funding for its own public trails. He stated he was not comfortable with the loss the City would be taking. He expressed frustration with the fact Bethel University had not paid the park dedication fees for this land. Commissioner Blilie stated she was uncomfortable requiring the fire department pay the park dedication fees, especially given the fact Bethel should have been responsible. Commissioner Mitchell indicated she was comfortable with waiving the park dedication fees given the fact the fire station would be a public benefit. Commissioner Bjorklund anticipated because Bethel University sold the land to the Fire Department, they got out of paying the park dedication fee. He did not support claiming the park dedication fee from the fire department. Chair Weber discussed how the funding would not come from the fire department, but rather would be paid by the cities of Shoreview and North Oaks, with a small portion coming from Arden Hills. Given the history of this project, he indicated he could forego the payment of the park dedication fees. Motion amendment moved by Commissioner Mitchell, seconded by Commissioner Bjorklund, to add Condition 20 to read: The Public Use Dedication/Park Dedication fee be waived for future development of Lot 2, Block 1 of the 2 Pine Tree North plat. The amended motion carried unanimously (6-0). B.

Recommend Approval as Submitted 3. Recommend Denial 4. Table Chair Weber opened the public hearing at 9:13 p.m. Chair Weber invited anyone for or against the application to come forward and make comment. There being no comment Chair Weber closed the public hearing at 9:13 p.m. Chair Weber asked if there would be a full depth replacement of the parking lot. Senior Planner Fransen deferred this question to the applicant. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 14 Ian Weber, Civil Engineer at Anderson Engineering, explained there would be a partial full depth replacement along with a mill and overlay of the existing parking lot. Chair Weber questioned where the 248 feet of frontage was along Connelly. He anticipated the frontage shown along Connelly belonged to Flaherty's. Commissioner Erler indicated he had the same question and stated the frontage along Connelly was the driveway. Senior Planner Fransen stated this matter could be verified by staff. Chair Weber asked why there was no stormwater management plan for this project. Senior Planner Fransen explained staff understood that the existing drainage patterns would be maintained. She indicated the City Engineer had reviewed the plans and had noted the permits that were necessary for this plan. She reported staff could follow up with the City Engineer to verify if there were any further comments. Chair Weber indicated he was asking questions about drainage due to the size of the lot. He anticipated an NPDES permit along with some sort of stormwater management onsite. He supported the site having proper stormwater management onsite. He asked if the restaurant would be open to the public during adult daycare. Rose Kukwa, the applicant, thanked the Commission for considering her request. She noted the restaurant would be open to the public during daycare hours. Chair Weber questioned why the applicant believed it was not conducive to have additional windows onsite. Ms. Kukwa explained the events she would be hosting would be private in nature and she did not believe it was necessary for passersby to view the events. However, she noted the restaurant portion of the building would have windows to see through. Chair Weber asked what supplies the applicant would be sourcing locally. Ms. Kukwa stated she had decorating vendors and caterers that were local. She explained she intended to get contracts in place with these vendors to assist with her events. Chair Weber requested further information on why the event center would be open until 3:00 a.m. Ms. Kukwa reported there were certain types of events that will go later than others and she would like to be able to host a wide variety of events. In addition, she noted alcohol could be served until 2:00 a.m. Chair Weber inquired who identified the structural concern with the parapet wall. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 15 Bob Vanney, Vanney Architect Associates, explained he was responsible for the design. He reported the existing overhang was wood. He stated he did not believe it was proper to add additional weight to the wooden overhang. For this reason, he recommended a lighter weight metal material was proposed to be used. Chair Weber commented on how the parapet could be viewed as an accent to the building and asked if the City would allow the metal material. Senior Planner Fransen discussed how exterior building materials are defined within City Code and explained metal was allowed as an accent material. Commissioner Bjorklund asked when this building was constructed. Senior Planner Fransen stated the building was originally used as a lumber yard and it turned into a bingo hall in 1986. Commissioner Erler reported this building was standing in the late 1950's. Commissioner Erler questioned if the church agreed to have overflow parking on their site. Ms. Kukwa stated she recently learned that due to renovations at the church no overflow parking would be allowed at the church. She did not anticipate needing any overflow parking as the site had 145 parking spaces. Commissioner Erler commented on the screening for the mechanicals and asked if the dogwoods would screen the equipment in the winter months. Mr. Weber, Anderson Engineering of MN, explained the plan prepared by his landscaping architects and noted he would be amenable to changing the species. He understood the dogwoods would provide screening in the winter months. He commented further on the stormwater management for the site, stating during his initial conversations with the watershed district he noted the proposed plan reduces the overall impervious surface on the site. He explained this meant the water leaving the site would be less than it is today. He reported he would continue to work with the watershed district and go through the review process with the City Engineer. Commissioner Bjorklund discussed the landscaping plan and was of the opinion the reality of the drip line for the trees was vastly misrepresented. Commissioner Blilie asked what the Commission was considering for this item. Senior Planner Fransen stated the Commission was being asked to consider a zoning code amendment along with a Master PUD, Final PUD, CUP and Site Plan Review. Commissioner Blilie inquired if the large parking lot behind Flaherty's was owned by Flaherty's. Senior Planner Fransen reported this was the case. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 16 Commissioner Mitchell questioned what the maximum capacity would be for the event space. Senior Planner Fransen stated the maximum capacity would be 464 people. Commissioner Mitchell inquired if the main entrance to the event space would through the cafe. Community Development Director Jagoe suggested the applicant speak further to the occupancy of the building and how people would flow through the site. She indicated 464 total people could be on the site, but noted this included event center attendees, caterers and those within the restaurant. Senior Planner Fransen reported the Applicant stated the occupancy has been discussed with the fire marshal. Ms. Kukwa explained the occupancy was 464, as determined by the fire marshal. She indicated visitors to the event center could enter through the front door or the side entrance. She noted the building had four exits. Commissioner Bjorklund stated he understood PUD's allowed for some level of flexibility. He indicated this was a unique property that was quite isolated. He explained he could support the flexibility for this property because the next door neighbors would not be impacted by the proposed activity. Chair Weber discussed the zoning code amendment noting the applicant was requesting an event center to be allowed within the B-2 zoning district as well as allowing for one parking space per three seats within the event center. Commissioner Erler stated he was confused about the relationship between the restaurant and the event center. Senior Planner Fransen discussed how the restaurant use would be able to attain a liquor license that could be utilized for the service of alcohol on the entire premises. Chair Weber questioned if the Commission supported the proposed parking. Commissioner Bjorklund supported the parking being changed to one parking space per four seats. He indicated this was the regulation followed by some neighboring communities. Commissioner Stromberg explained she supported the one to four ratio as well, noting many of the visitors may use Lyft or Uber for transportation. Commissioner Mitchell suggested the changes regarding parking be addressed or revisited through the code review study. She recommended the ratio remain three to one for consistency purposes at this time. After further discussion, the consensus of the Commission was to allow for one parking space per four seats within the event center. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 17 Senior Planner Fransen stated the property would then be required to have 133 parking spaces for the Phase I and Phase II uses. Chair Weber moved and Commissioner Erler seconded a motion to recommend approval of Planning Case 24-014 for a Zoning Code Amendment to Chapter 13, Sections 1305.04, 1320.05, 1320.085, and 1325.06 of the Arden Hills City Code to allow for an Event Center use in the B-2 General Business District through a conditional use permit, based on the findings of fact and submitted materials, with an amendment to the minimum off-street parking requirement for event centers to allow for one parking stall per four seats. The motion carried unanimously (6-0). Chair Weber requested the Commission now address the requested flexibilities for this Planning Case. Commissioner Erler asked if the applicant had a sample of the proposed metal building material. Mr. Vanney reviewed a material boards with the Commission. Chair Weber asked if the restaurant should be required to have outdoor seating. He was of the opinion this property was not conducive to outdoor seating. Commissioner Erler agreed, stating he did not believe the City should require a restaurant to have outdoor seating. He explained benches outside the event center would be a nice addition. Senior Planner Fransen suggested Condition 18 could read: Benches shall be located near the primary entrance of the building. Chair Weber requested the Commission address the proposed landscaping. He was of the opinion the property should have curb on the parking lot islands. He anticipated this would be addressed through the stormwater management plan. Commissioner Erler agreed curb should be added within the parking lot. He stated he could do without the trees within the parking lot islands. He supported the islands having lights instead of trees for safety purposes. Commissioner Mitchell stated she could support this. She noted that while the plan has fewer trees, there were more other types of plantings. Senior Planner Fransen recommended Condition 19 read: Applicant shall provide concrete curbs for planting islands. Chair Weber asked if the Commission supported the refacing of the sign. The Commission supported the existing monument sign being refaced. The Commission recommended the wall mounted signs be further addressed through the sign code review. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 18 Community Development Director Jagoe suggested Condition 13 be amended to read: As approved in the Master PUD, any future signage not shown as part of the project shall conform to current sign ordinances. The Commission opted to support the proposed graphic signs as shown in the provided plans. Chair Weber inquired if the Commission would like to require additional screening on the site. Commissioner Erler believed that additional permanent screening should be required. Commissioner Stromberg recommended additional screening be proposed. Senior Planner Fransen suggested Condition 20 read: Ground mounted mechanical screening shall conform with City Code requirements. Chair Weber asked how the Commission wanted to address the hours of operation. He stated 3:00 a.m. was a hard no for him. Ms. Kukwa explained cleaning and closing would occur up until 3:00 a.m. and visitors would leave at 2:00 a.m. at bar close. Chair Weber indicated Flaherty's closes at midnight and he believed this was a good precedent for him. Commissioner Erler asked if City Code addressed hours of operation for event centers. Senior Planner Fransen stated City Code does not have established hours of operation for businesses, rather the City follows State law for establishments with a liquor license. Commissioner Mitchell asked what Chair Weber's concerns were. She indicated this was an isolated site that would not impact neighboring properties. She reported this was an event center that would host weddings or other social events. She did not support putting rules more restrictive than Minnesota rules on an event center that may not begin hosting an event until 8:00 p.m. She stated she supported the owner being allowed to set the hours for her events noting the bar would be shut down at 2:00 a.m. Commissioner Erler reported he could support events ending at 2:00 a.m. with staff leaving at 3:00 a.m. Commissioner Stromberg and Commissioner Blilie agreed. Commissioner Bjorklund stated he believed it was reasonable to close the event center at midnight, just like Flaherty's. Senior Planner Fransen suggested Condition 21 read: Event Center and alcohol service will cease at 2:00 a.m. and staff can remain onsite until 3:00 a.m. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION — July 10, 2024 19 Community Development Director Jagoe reported the caterer or the applicant would have to have a 2:00 a.m. liquor license in order to serve liquor until 2:00 a.m. Commissioner Mitchell suggested the language for Condition 21 read: Operations on the subject property will cease at 2:00 a.m. and staff can remain onsite until 3:00 a.m. Further discussion ensued regarding the relationship between the restaurant and the event center. Commissioner Erler stated he was unclear about the relationship between the event center and the restaurant, and how alcohol service would be managed. Chair Weber reported the restaurant would be created and would have a liquor license for the property. However, this did not mean the restaurant and the event center would have the same operating hours. Senior Planner Fransen explained the restaurant would be operational when events are taking place within the event center. She indicated the restaurant could still be open if a caterer was brought onsite for an event. She commented the restaurant could hold a City liquor license and this license would serve the premises. She reported the previous Northern Lights Bingo Hall restaurant, Brightside Cafe, had a liquor license and had served alcohol on the premises. Commissioner Bjorklund stated he was concerned about law enforcement and how many people would be driving drunk out of this property. Ms. Kukwa discussed the current alcohol service laws per the State of Minnesota. She reported alcohol service had to stop at 2:00 a.m. and noted the site would remain open to guests until 3:00 a.m. Chair Weber stated the Commission supported ending at 2:00 a.m. Commissioner Erler moved and Commissioner Mitchell seconded a motion to recommend approval of Planning Case 24-014 for a Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development for Phases 1 and 2, Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review for an Event Center and Restaurant at 3776 Connelly Avenue based on the findings of fact and submitted plans as amended by the conditions in the July 10, 2024 report to the Planning Commission along with the additional conditions as discussed: Condition 18 - The Applicant shall provide benches near the primary entrance of the building; Condition 19 - The Applicant shall be required to install curbing around parking islands with parking lot improvements; Condition 20 - Screening for ground -mounted mechanical equipment shall meet the requirements of the Zoning Code; and Condition 21 - The Applicant shall be required to cease hours of operation at 2 AM for commercial land uses approved as part of the PUD.

Planning Case 24-009 — Lake Johanna Fire Department lt EN HILLS NEW BUSINESS -11B lt �-REN�HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: July 22, 2024 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #24-014 — Public Hearing Required Applicant: Rose Kukwa Property Location: 3776 Connelly Avenue Request: Zoning Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Council Should Consider: Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: • Adoption of Ordinance 2024-007 for Planning Case 24-014 for Zoning Code Amendments to Chapter 13, Section 1305 — Rules, Scope, Interpretation, & Definitions, Section 1320 — District Provisions, and Section 1325 — General Regulations to add language for an event center use in the B-2 General Business District by conditional use permit and authorization to publish a Summary Ordinance of 2024-007 for Planning Case 24-014. • Planning Case 24-014 and the adoption of Resolution 2024-038 for the Elegant Event Center Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review for the proposed project on 3776 Connelly Avenue to allow for the site to be redeveloped as an event center and restaurant. Approval for authorization to publish summary ordinance requires an affirmative vote of four councilmembers. Approval of a PUD requires an affirmative vote of four councilmembers. Background The Applicant has submitted a land use application for a Zoning Code Amendment, Master Planned Unit Development, Final Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review to redevelop the existing approximately 11,000 square foot commercial building on the property at 3776 Connelly Avenue. The Subject Property is currently owned by Standout Page 1 of 7 Properties, LLC and the building is occupied by the Northern Lights Bingo Hall and Bright Side Cafe. The Applicant is proposing to renovate the existing building and resurface the parking lot. The Applicant is proposing a phased development with the event center established in Phase I and restaurant and adult day care uses to be established in Phase II and Phase III, respectively. The Applicant is seeking review and approval for Phases I and II at this time. Approvals 1. Zoning Code Amendment The Applicant is proposing to use the property as an Event Center. Currently, the city code is absent of land use language permitting an Event Center use or establishing standards for the development or operation of an event center within any zoning district. To allow this land use, the City's Zoning Code would need to be amended to add a definition for an Event Center and to designate this type of land use within a zoning district. The proposed Event Center would not be permitted without a zoning code amendment. As part of the land use application, the Applicant has proposed for the use of an event center to be allowed in the B-2 General Business Zoning District through a conditional use permit. The Applicant has stated that the addition of an event center as a conditional use in the B-2 Zoning District aligns with the districts purpose of accommodating commercial activities that serve the local community. The other approvals noted in the land use application would not be applicable unless the Event Center use is permitted within the B-2 General Business Zoning District. 2. Planned Unit Development A Planned Unit Development (PUD) is required for all new development and redevelopment in the B-2 Zoning District. In addition, a PUD would allow for performance standard flexibility. This proposal involves both the initial Master Plan PUD and the Final PUD for Phase I and II. Under the PUD Master Plan, the Applicant shall provide details for each stage of development, but would be required to seek the PUD Final Plan approval of Phase III at the time of establishing the future use of an adult day care. The Applicant has provided details in the Architectural Plans which identifies how the Subject Property would be utilized in Phase I as an event center, Phase II as a restaurant, and Phase III as an adult day care. The City Council should consider the different phases of development while considering the Master and Final PUD as proposed in this application. In this application, the Applicant is seeking approval for Phase I, the event center, and Phase II, which includes the restaurant. The Applicant states in the narrative that Phase II would begin immediately after the completion of Phase I for the event center with the restaurant being operational once a liquor license is obtained. 3. Conditional Use Permit The Applicant is proposing that in the B-2 Zoning District, a Conditional Use Permit is required for an event center. Typical factors to consider in the evaluation of the CUP request may be hours of operation, potential noise from the proposed use, lights from vehicles, and on -site traffic. The Applicant is proposing all events will be held inside the building to contain noise within the venue and their request includes supplementary materials related to a security plan and traffic considerations. Page 2 of 7 City Code 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 and the community, 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.
