133 with these individuals on whether a proposed project advances any goals and/or strategies of the 134 Plan. The Planning Division has included two such goals and their strategies that align well with the 135 proposal to change the current land use guiding and zoning: 136 137 Goal — Create regulations that allow renovation and redevelopment of spaces that could be 138 used to support a variety of small businesses. 139 Strategies: 140 Promote and support the redevelopment of physically and economically obsolete or underutilized 141 property. 142 143 Goal — Create an attractive, vibrant, and effective city with a high quality of life by implementing 144 placemaking principles in the design and management of the public realm. 145 Strategies: 146 Create design standards for both vertical and horizontal mixed-use developments, not only so 147 that the uses are compatible, but so that the scale, mass, and feel of new development 148 enhances the desired community character. 149 150 As has been stated previously, the request by the Minnesota State Patrol to change to Institutional land 151 use and zoning classifications are to ensure the use (state agency headquarters facility) aligns with the 152 intended purpose of the land use and guiding classifications for civic, school, library, church, and similar 153 uses.

It was concluded the amendment would most likely be completed under the 168 Council’s administrative review process, which cannot commence until the City Council takes action. 169 170 Policy Objectives 171 Facilitate development and redevelopment of land consistent with the guidance of the future land use 172 plan. 173 174 Equity Impact Summary 175 This analysis is not indicated for land use decisions that are legislative and/or quasi-judicial in nature. 176 177 Budget Implications 178 Not applicable 179 180 Staff Recommendations 181 At the regular meeting of Roseville Planning Commission on March 4, 2026, the Planning Commission 182 asked non-consequential questions of staff and the applicant to better understand the proposed use and Page 4 of 5 Qbhf!38!pg!33:
