The Conditional Use Permit is: the official action by the City to approve the. proposal: Section 17.5.2 of the Consolidated Land Use Ordinance lists what the. Planning Commission and City Council must consider when reviewing a development proposal.. It states:. When reviewing a Conditional Use Permit; the following criteria must be reviewed and measured: 1. Adjacent Uses 2. Al and Water Quality M 3. Traffic Generation 4. Public Safety & Health 5. Area Aesthetics 6. Economic Impact on the Entire Area 7. Consistency ►ivith'Comprehensive Municipal Plan. S. Anticipated.duration of the Conditional. or Interim Use. 4 As part of the review for permits to approve the HyNee proposal, Section 9 of the. Consolidated Land Use Ordinance, relating to the.Gateway District.must be considered. Specific sections of the ordinance which must be considered include the following: A. Pro mote.development and redevelopment consistent with the visioning plan for the Gateway area by encouraging residential uses in conjunction with commercial and expanded recreational activities which in turn will create an active street life, while enhancing the vitality of businesses and reducing: vehicular traffic. M 4 g: Provide for a mixed -use development(s) that are carefully planned to promote efficient use of land., parking and roadway systems. C. Provide enhanced oversight through conditional use permit provisions, to ensure compatibility of mixed uses and consistency with the approved master plan for the site. D. Ensure.compatibility with surrounding neighborhoods. E. Provide significant incentives to promote mixed -use: redevelopment projects. F. Encourage sustainable architectural, engineering and landscape design that is implemented by responsive green construction practices. G. Preserve natural resources, minlmi-ze the carbon footprint of the City, and establish a key zone within Gem Lake that. is respectful of neighboring areas and is instructive for future. generations.. H. Encourage pedestrian and bicycle use. i. Ensure that commercial and residential uses.in a development aredesigned to be compatible.with each other.. J. Ensure high standards of site design,. spatial relationships;. architectural design, building materials and landscaping design.. K. Seek to put in place those areas identified in. the Comprehensive Plan (as supported by the roaster plan).that includes four "sub -zones". 4. Neighborhood. Center: Intended forthe most urban conditions within all of the shown mixed use areas. The. mixture of. land uses emphasizes ground -floor retail with offices and residential/rental above (as rharket acceptance matures} and structures providing commercial space for medium and large -sized retailers. Street frontages throughout this subzone should be pedestrian -oriented, and the public space should .be defined.by placing buildi ng. facad es at. the edge of the sidewalk. Neighborhood Center land that abuts other subzones on the north and west.sides will be carefully planned to ensure lower -density buildings. Where developers insert a minimum 200-foot buffer at existing non -Gateway residential properties, or especially along the extreme eastern edge of the: subzone, the City may. allow as a conditional use. multifamily housing, including townhomes, row houses, or apartment. buildings three stories or less 1n height. s Section 9.2.4.also provides for incentives for projects which include public transit support. This is timely in relation to the Hy-Vee proposal as staff from area communities, and Met Council, Ramsey County, MnDOT and consultants are planning. for Future Dus Rapid Transit along the Highway 61 corridor. Bus stop options are being considered as. are crosswalks, pedestrian tunnel. or bridge locations as well as a park and ride lot and/or ramp.. The group working on the BRT Master Plan is aware of the Hy-Vee plans. Hy-Vee has not proposed any site improvements specifically related to accommodate the BRT and as .a result, n❑ incentives would. be available. Section 94defines Thoroughfare Standards. Section 9.4.2 states: The thoroughfare design in a given area of the Gateway District is determined in part by the subzone to which the land. is assigned. Right-of-way dedication and the use of the right -of --way is set. forth in the Thoroughfare Type diagrams in Figures 2 and 3. The. presence of trees within a diagram indicates a requirement to plant "street trees" within the indicated area. A development plan's thoroughfares shall comply with the dimensional and layout standards applicable to each thoroughfare type. The following. Thoroughfare Types are allowed in.each sub -zone: 1) Neighborhood Edge: A., B, Alley; ii} Neighborhood General: A, C, C*, Alley, Boulevard (Type C only allowed within. 250' of Mixed -Use sub -zone boundary) iii) Neighborhood Mixed -Use: C, D. Alley, Boulevard iv} Neighborhood Center: D, Alley; Boulevard, Scheuneman Road and Hoffman Road should be treated as Type D thoroughfares in plans (May also propose a Plaza with a thoroughfare as regulated by figure 5:). Hoffman Road, a portion of which is proposed to be vacated is considered a Type D thoroughfare. Page 31 of the ordinance shows corridor improvements planned bythe City for redevelopment of Hoffman Road. There are no plans by Hy-Vee to improve Hoffman Road.. A possible condition for approval could include a requirement that Hoffman Road be reconstructed as .shown as a Type D medium -volume.. commercial street or a Type: Boulevard. This option must be considered prior to action to vacate a portion of Hoffman Road as the design standards for both options require 80-9.4 feet of right-of-way or 93-120 feet of right -of --way. Figure 14 on Page 45 of the Consolidated Land Use Ordinance provides requirements fora single use building in the Gateway Zone.. The parking requirements are 4 spaces per. 1,000 square feet of retail. For. a 10,642 square foot building, the minimum requirement is. 43 spaces. Hy -flee proposes 85.spaces including the fueling stations. Total surface coverage of the site is not to exceed.80%. 69.4% of the site is proposed to be covered by impervious surfacing.

August 7, 2018 Justin Gese SEH 10901 Red Circle Drive, Suite 300 Minnetonka, MN 55343 Re. Gem `Lake Hy-Vee Traffic Impact Study Dear Mr. Gese, Thank you for the opportunityto corn ment on the proposed Hy-Vee C-Store Traffic Study in the City of Gem Lake. We. have reviewed the traffic study and proposed layout and have the following comments, ■ The new Hy-Vee site will generate.approximately 30 right turns onto Hoffman Rd from County Road E. Future development at the nurserysite will generate additional traffic to warrant a right turn lane on County Road E. The County requests the developer dedicate right of way for a future 12' wide right turn lane. In additionto the right turn lane, a 6-foot sidewalk with a 5. foot boulevard should be consfructed along County Road. Approximately 25 feet of right of way should be dedicated along County Road E for the turn lane and sidewalk. The sidewalk and future turn lane should be preliminarily designed to ensure adequate right. of way dedication. ■ The location of the northeast driveway onto Hoffman Road is. very close to the County Road E access. To improve access rnanagement and spacing; the driveway should be shifted further southwest. • The traffic study presents overall level of service at the intersections, it. is also important to understand if there are any individual movements that fail as part of the proposed. Hy-Vee or future develo.prrent. Ifthere are any fai.lu.res,.possibl.e mitigation alternatives should be. considered.

Traffic Counts l a. What:date{s) and day(s) were counted? 2: Figures. ILAd pM numbers The bold is not a. It is difficult Immediately determine.in the figures winch are A an that bold and some numbers overlap. !s it correct to assume that the first number closest -to the arrow is AM? 3:. Safety Crash history reports that 'only three involved vehicles traveling to. or from: Hoffman Road " On. the crash diagram it appears that.there are four and potentially a fifth depending on description, ! The diagram. for the 9/11/2012 crash may be.a.right turn to Hoffman, since the left through lane ends just past that: Iocatlon. b. .Several places in the report, state that u-turns which would likely increase with restricted access, would ".cause. a safety.coneem". We do not. agree .that this would. be. a safety concern, with`u- turns not being out of the ordinary on. the TH 81 corridor, On page 8. of the report, expresses concern on the part of businesses foru-turns that would occur from Scheuneman Road. Figure 7 of the report shows this volume to be no Vehicles In the AM. Peak Hour and 12 vehicles in the PM Peak Hour. These volumes indicate very little impact. Also i of note is that CR E:east of TH.01 does not have a. center median, therefore if u-turns.began to occur, they would likely.be prohibited.. A. Modeling a. What speed was used for CR E? b. Does.the modeling reflect the following lane uses of these Intersections? 1. TH 611CFt E 1: Southbound left turns prPdaminatefy from the leftmost lane. 2. Eastbound thru.rrsovements predominately from the left most thru lane. i ii. CR E1Hoffentin Road 1. Eastbound thru movements predominately from the left most thru. lane. I c.

However, using the 0.2%6 annual growth does not impact the results, as it Is not more than would actually be used In. rounding the. traffic volumes. 6. Trip.Distribution a. Provide an :explanation as to how the percentages were determined. b: it is difficult to determine how the exiting site traffic fits with these percentages,. 1, Trip.Genera#'ion a. The report describes the use of the iTE Trip Generation Manual 91' and 193h editions, it appears that the 101h edition is What is used. b. The i 01h edition has the category used in the. report 945 -- GasolinelService Station wl Convenience Market. It appears more appropriate to use 853 -- Convenience Market with Gasoline Pumps. This category has significantly more data points. In. either case the -report used fueling positions to determine the number of trips. if .SF is used for 846, the trips are significantly greater than what the. report uses. Both measures are used in 853, the trips ara hfgner ono relatively close together, but again higher than the report. G:. It appears that the .'; f4S>' made -to -order dining area: should have trips. generated.ori its own, since this could be a specific destination. d, Shopping Center I: .How was 30 ksf size arrived. at? ii. AM rate does not appear realistic, particularly with a 7,15.— 8:15 AM Peak Hour. Pass -Sy Trips a. By definition, pass -by trips would be those frorn.traffsc on Hoffman Road. Traffic from TH 61 and j OR E would bo diverted trips, but.essvntiaily with the same impact. However, it appears the. Ij reported number of pass -by trips. have been totally deducted.from the site access: These rerouted. trips still need to access the site. When. comparing Figures 3, 63 and 71 the site entering i and exiting. traf o.. in the AM Peak.Hour is 52 and 50 respectively and the PM Peak Hour it 65 and i 5.3 respectively: A figure should be:created showing the pass -by trips. b.. It appears that the rate used for the Coffee/Donut Shop is high (84%), since the 1TE reported data doesnot have any.inside seating.. The reported .percentage is also daily and not peak hour. We assume that there is inside seating based on the proposed use of a dining area. Based on the site having seating a lower pass -by rate appears.sppropriate. Suggest it is better based on i category 934 -- Fast Food Restaurant with Drive -Through Window (60%). 9. Torn Lane Analysts a.. The. report assumes that a right turn lane approaching Hoffman Road would need to be accomplished in the existing street width. A lame could be constructed with additional right-of<way with no impact to the existing 1hru lanes. t� s;1TJ19igcml klsainmcnll �56y3.ny-realge se-gerri rakefiyvoa-vBai i e, ao�,i i i 1 r S,E-H Wing a Better World All of Us' `iom.Riedesel, Clty Planner MEMORANDUM FkOM; Justin Gese, PE. - City Engineer Greg Anderson, PE Emily Erdahl, Water Resources Engineer DiI ITE;.

The site is located at the. corner of County Road E and. Scheuneman Road and is currently vacant. The corner suite is where Mr. Eckton would. like to open h.is business. Additional businesses located in the small strip center include Al's Gun Shop and 2nd Hand Tools,. facing County Road E and McOough. Vending facing Scheunernan Road (to be occupied by Mr. Eckton) and St. Paul Smiles (making dental ceramics). A former auto repair shop. faces east at the rear of the building is vacant.. There is also a residential apartment in the upper level of the building. Mr. Eckton would occupy 838 square feet of the building if approved. The interior of the building would have a retail area serving food, drink and merchandise. Eleven tables (serving up to 4 each) and 5 bar stools are proposed. The brewing/manufacturing area is proposed to. be 28.0 square. feet in size, One restroom is proposed. also. The use, since it will manufacture and serve alcohol, requires City approval of both an on -sale and off -sale liquor license. Currently, the Consolidated Land use Ordinance lists the following uses which are permitted: A) General Terms and Permitted Uses; The Building Type Templates assign categories. of uses to certain floors of a building. When multiple use categories are listed and separated by a slash (such as "officelretail"), the uses may be combined on the floor at.the discretion of the owner or occupant. of the building. When multiple use categories are stated as alternatives (such as. "office or residential") the floor may only be assigned one: category of use, at the discretion of the owner or occupant of the building, Building Type. Templates may also contain specific exclusions or limitations which modify the. application of a use category to the particular building, The categorical terms are defined as follows: Residential, Premises for long-term human dwelling. Office. Non-residential premises used for administrative; clerical, professional or similar activities. Office as used. in this section includes medical and. dental offices used by five (5) or fewer medical principals (doctor,- dentist, chiropractor or similar professional). Retail. Premises for the sale of merchandise and food service. For purposes of this Section, banks with teller service are considered "retail" instead of "office." Athletic clubs and fitness centers that are not the primary use of the building space are considered a "retail" use. Certain personal service businesses are considered "retail" if not the primary use of a building: barbershop/beauty salon; clothing rental and dry cleaning .pick.up (but not on - site processing); and tailor shops. Commercial. Premises for the conduct of the following activities, which are not included within the meaning of "office". or "retail" for purposes of this Section: Athletic club/fitness center (when primary or only use of building space);. business school or trade. school; veterinary clinic; funeral home; hotel; recreational primary use (such as a bawling alley); cabinet and carpentry shops, heating, plumbing or electrical sales. and service; printing snap, upholstery shop, warehousing. Conditional uses of space assigned as "commercial" are:. car wash; light industrial useswhichmanufacture, process, store and distribute foods and. materials not likely to create offensive noise, odors, vibrations, dust smoke, heat, glare or other objectionable influences and are in general dependent upon raw:materials refined elsewhere. Qn-sale and off -sale liquor are not listed as permitted or conditionally permitted under the. Retail. heading. Uses: which manufacture, process, store and distribute foods is listed as a Conditional Use: under the Commercial Heading. The meadery use could fall under this heading but the distribution of alcohol will require an off -sale license. The City of Gem Lake may want to consider modifying the list of permitted and conditional uses to address this specific use. On/off sale liquor could be added to the list or in the alternative, microbrewery. The use. could be permitted under the "retail" heading also. Identifying a more specific use and adding that use to the list of allowed uses plus eliminating."retail'' may keep out certain uses which may not be wanted in the City. White Bear Township requires the following minimum:. parking for a shopping center: 1 space for each 100 square feet of useable floor area for the first. 15,000 square feet of building. A restaurant in White Bear Township is required to have 2 spaces per 100 square feet of floor area, The retail center where the Mead ery Brewery as proposed is. just over 6,00.0 square feet in area. Forty-eight parking spaces are provided on the south and :west sides of the building. Based on the size of the building 60 parking spaces. could be required. The gun shop and 2nd Hand Tools do not gene.irate. a significant amount of traffic. Mr. Eck#on plans to use 838 square: feet of the building. Using a 1. parking space per 100. square feet of useable floor area model will require only 9 spaces. There are approximately 18 parkin.g spaces in. front of {south side} or west side of the building where. the Meadery Brewery is proposed. The amount of parking appears to be adequately provided. Commercial — Add on -sale liquor, off -sale liquor, microbrewlmeadery brewery to the current list of Conditional Uses. Note -- other uses could be added/subtracted or modified., unrelated to Mr..

There are approximately 18 parking spaces in front of (south side) or west side of the.building where the Meadery Brewery is proposed. The amount of parking appears to be adequately provided..

All Conditional and Interim Uses shall comply with the ' following general standards. By New Uses, Shall conform as follows: 1) Compliance with all zoning and other regulations as may otherwise be. applicable; 2) The date or the event that. will terminate the use can be. identified with certainty; 3) The existence of the Conditional or Interim Use will. not impose additional costs on the public if it becomes necessary for the public to take the property in the future; 4] The user agrees to any conditions of approval associated with the approval of the Conditional. or Interim Use. Permit by the City Council. C} Existing and .New Uses. Shall conform as follows: 1) Shall maintain harmony and compatibility with surrounding uses and with the architectural character and design standards of existing uses and development; 4 2) Shall meet or exceed a11. Performance Standards contained elsewhere in this Ordinance;. 3) Shall. not .generate such additional traffic associated with the use that would overburden or exceed the capabilities of streets and other public. services and facilities including, but not limited to, parks, schools, and utilities serving the area. If the City Council. determines that fhe proposed structure meets the criteria for approval as defined by the Consolidated Land Use Ordinance, the garage as proposed,. `can be approved. The City must also approve a variance from Section 15,5 of the Ordinance to allow the garage addition to. exceed the height of the home. Approval. of a variance requires the City to establish a practical difficulty or "hardship" to permit the extra height. A hardship is difficult to define. in this case as the garage itself can be lowered so it is no higher than the house. It is recommended by staff that the City request Mr. Stuemke to reduce the height of the garage so it.complies with the ordinance.
