Roll Call: Commission Members present-Ericson, Schmitt, Yehle, and Johnson. Commission members absent-Ramsdell Also present were Tim Johnson (City Planner), and Shelley Hanson (Secretary). Motion by Yehle, second by Johnson, to approve the minutes from the meeting of May 7, 2002. All ayes. MOTION PASSED. OTHER BUSINESS Bob Streetar, the new Community Development Director, was introduced to the commission members. PUBLIC HEARINGS Case #: 2002-0704 Lot Split 2120 43rd Avenue David Linsk A request has been made for a lot split of the property located at 2120 43rd Avenue NE. Cun'ently 2120 43rd Avenue NE is an abnormally shaped lot measuring 67 feet in the fi-ont, 25 feet in the back, and 191 feet in depth. The applicant is proposing to acquire a small portion of property measuring 1,080 square feet from the neighbor at 2112 43rd Avenue, and add this portion to his property in order to accommodate a future detached garage addition (see survey). This split would keep both lots in conformance with current City lot size requirements. Section 9.410(4) of the Columbia Heights Zoning Ordinance requires that an application for a lot split be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission which shall provide a report to the City Council either recommending approval or denial of the proposed lot split. There are no previous Planning and Zoning Commission cases on this site. The surrounding property in all four directions is zoned R-1, Single-Family Residential, and is used residentially. PLANNING & ZONING MINUTES JULY 9, 2002 PAGE 2 Technical Review: Section 9.903 of the Columbia Heights Zoning Ordinance regulates lot area, setback, height and lot coverage requirements in the R-1 District, and Section 9.603 regulates accessory structures and lot coverage. Applicable requirements are as follows. Minimum lot size shall be 8,400 square feet for a single family home - the proposed split would provide 2120 43rd Ave with 9,920 square feet, and 2112 43rd Ave with 18,105 square feet, both of which exceed minimum lot size requirements. Minimum lot width shall be 70 feet - The current lot width for 2120 43rd Avenue is 67.18 feet, but with the additional square footage the new lot width will be 74.18 feet, thus meeting the City requirement. Detached accessory structures shall be at least 3 feet away from side and rear property lines - there is currently a detached garage on the property at 2120 43rd Avenue, and with a furore proposed addition the garage setback will be at 4 + feet, thus meeting requirements. Any lot over 6,500 square feet may have a lot coverage of up to 30% - the lot coverages on both 2120 and 2112 43rd Avenue will be well under 30%, so the proposal meets these requirements. The City Comprehensive Plan designates this area for future low density residential development. The proposal is consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan and meets the minimum requirements of the Columbia Heights Zoning Ordinance. Therefore, staff recommends approval of the lot split. Schmitt noted that there was quite a grade difference between the two properties and wondered if the elevations would present a problem once the split is processed and building commences. Planner Johnson said this would be looked at when the building plan for the garage permit is reviewed. It may require a retaining wall as a condition of the approval if indicated by the City Engineer. The lot split will go to the City Council for consideration at the July 22, 2002, meeting. Motion by Yehle, second by $chmitt, to recommend City Council approval of Resolution 2002- 44for the lot split of 2120 rd 43 Ave., as it is consistent with City subdivision standards. ~Ill ayes. MOTION PASSED. PLANNING & ZONING MINUTES JULY 9, 2002 PAGE 3 Case #: 2002-0705 -06 Parkside Village 825 51st Avenue Site Plan, Preliminary and Final Plat Approval Nedegaard Homes-Humphrey Engineering 26 unit Townhome Subdivision This is a request for Site Plan, and Preliminary and Final Plat approval of Parkside Village (not St. Timothy Heights as originally indicated), a 2.4 acre owner-occupied 26 unit market-rate townhome subdivision that Nedegaard Homes is proposing to split off from the St. Timothy's Lutheran Church property. Planner Johnson passed out a revised plat showing utilities, proposed parking and access to the subdivision, and other details that were discussed. In 1998, St. Tim's Church approached the City and was working with Nedegaard Construction Group to build a senior housing facility, but the project never evolved. The property was rezoned in 1998 to R-3 multi-family residential in anticipation of senior housing, and the Comprehensive Plan was also amended to allow for a high density residential use, but the project idea failed. The proposed townhome concept had been looked at for the last few years, but never materialized until the church recently decided to sell the property to Bruce Nedegaard for townhome development. The surrounding property on the east is zoned GB, General Business District and is used commercially. The property to the north is zoned GB, General Business. The property to the north is used by the Medtronic Corporation. The property to the south is a combination of single and two-family residential. The area to the west of the subject property, Sullivan Lake Park is zoned R-3 and is surrounded by residential on the south and west sides. Technical Review: Plat- Parkside Village is made up of Block 1, Lots 1-6; Block 2, Lots 1-7; Block 3, Lots 1-6; and Block 4, Lots 1-7. The plat will be approximately 2.4 acres in size and will contain 26 market rate townhome units. The plat lays out four distinct building sites; with Block 1 on the north side containing 6 units; Block 2 on the east side containing 7 units; Block 3 on the south side containing 6 units; and Block 4 on the west side facing the park containing 7 units. Each lot will be platted individually according to the building footprint, will share zero lot lines,~and will also share open space and common areas with the other owners in the development through a Home Owner's Association. Outlot A - Utility easement over the interior access road. A number of new drainage and utility easements are being proposed as indicated in the plat shown. The City Engineer is reviewing these easements to ensure the utilities serve the development sufficiently. It should be noted that Anoka County surveyors and engineers will review the Final Plat before it is filed to ensure that it meets County requirements. MnDOT is not required to review and give their approval of this subdivision as the development is not adjacent to Central Avenue (Trunk Highway 65). PLANNING & ZONING MINUTES JULY 9, 2002 PAGE 4 Public Works Director Kevin Hansen is also reviewing the watermain, and storm and sanitary sewer locations and designs to ensure that the existing systems are able to handle the projected flow increases (see comments attached). Public Works is also reviewing a hydrology study that was submitted by the site design engineer. The proposed development will utilize existing access from 51 st Avenue as shown on the site plan. This entrance to the development is indicated to be between 24 and 25 feet wide, which according to the City Engineer, should be sufficient for the traffic in this development. The City requires a minimum of a 20 foot fire lane for sufficient access. The proposed circulation system indicated should be sufficient to accommodate the number of units proposed. It should also be noted .that Nedegaard is also proposing an additional access on the northwest side of the project, for emergency purposes. This emergency access would be required and would probably consist ora knock-down gate of some sort. Nedegaard would actually like for the City to allow access to the development from the entrance portion of park property parallel with the westerly lot line, but the project can function without it, and is not dependent on this issue. Planner Johnson stated that visitor parking would be an issue as there is not much provided for in the plan. However, in the revised plat, he noted that Nedegaard is proposing improving the current park entrance by widening it and providing a parking area that could be used by the public visiting the park or for visitor parking to residents of the subdivision. This entrance would then serve as the entrance to the subdivision also. The fencing along the park will need to be moved or revised. Landscaping could be used with whatever type of barrier is constructed to make it more aesthetically pleasing. The proposed site plan/plat indicates that all the setback requirements have been met within the development, including side yard setbacks of 20 feet; and front and rear yard setbacks of 30 feet. However, the ordinance allows for encroachments of up to 3 feet for decorative or ornamental features that complement the development. It should be noted that the creation of this plat and newly created lot line between the subdivision and St. Tim's Church, will result in making a small section of the west side of the church non-conforming as it relates to the required side yard setback. A lot split that was proposed and adopted by the City Council in 1998, but never recorded, allowed for the exact same split. The proposed side yard setback from the church to the property line is approximately 20 feet. However, the required setback fi.om the church to the property line is 25 feet. Each unit is being proposed with at-grade patios that will be complemented with a pedestal type design feature to meet setback requirements, and to articulate an architectural design element. The design of the front facades will also be consistent with ordinance requirements that a minimum of 20% of the faqade facing fight of way be windows or doors. The exterior design features incorporate brick, shakes, siding, pedestal style posts, dormers, and second floor porches. It should be noted that the elevations will be staggered in the middle of the Block 4 units, and the Block 2 units. An elevation drop of approximately 3 feet fi.om south to north will allow for the units to be staggered and should enhance visual interest of the buildings facing the church and the park. PLANNING & ZONING MINUTES JULY 9, 2002 PAGE 5 Technical review: The 26 owner-occupied traits proposed are two-bedroom, two-bath, two-car garage, and will be furnished. Brochures are not available as of yet. Minimum floor area requirements are 750 square feet for townhomes - Each unit exceeds this requirement. Minimum garage size requirement is 20 X 20 - Each townhome trait has a two-car garage measuring 20 X 21 in size, and room for a minimum of 2 cars in the driveway. Visitor parking is not required by ordinance, but it may be a good idea to ask for the developer to provide some type o.f visitor parking. This could either be accomplished through widening the drive aisles in between Blocks 4-5, to allow for a few on-street parking spaces, and still provide a 20 foot drive aisle for fire access. Or the City could ask the developer to eliminate one unit to provide an additional number of visitor parking spaces. Maximum lot coverage for the site is 35% or 37,051 square feet of building coverage - This development has a total building lot coverage of 30% or 31,758 square feet. The total % of greenspace for the development is 33,372 square feet, or 32% of total lot area. (See Landscaping plan provided for details on greenspace and planting placement). 20% of building fagades facing a public street, or parking lot shall be windows or doors for residential multi-family residential. The building fagade facing 51 st street (see elevation renderings) has been designed so that the appearance is more reminiscent of a one-story rambler style with a lower roof-line and dormers. This development proposes a variety of architectural features and building materials that provide visual interest, and meet the intent of the ordinance building design standards. A landscaping plan is required for multi-family development - The ordinance requires a minimum of one tree be planted for every 50 feet of street frontage, and a minimum of 4 trees for every one acre of lot area. All other required setback areas shall be landscaped with grass, trees, shrubs, vines, perennial flowers - A professional landscaping design plan has been submitted (see attached) and proposes well in excess of the minimum required # of trees, as well as consistent shrubbery, sodding, and assorted complementary coniferous, ornamental, and deciduous trees. Park dedication fees were addressed with the new Zoning and Development Ordinance. However, the language adopted did not establish a specific per unit standard. The language refers to a 10% parkland contribution or the cash equivalent of 10% of the estimate of improvements. City Council can make the determination as to what they feel is an appropriate amount- Staff has researched a # of first and second ring suburbs and found that the park dedication fees ranged from between $500 - $1,000/unit. The appropriate Subdivision section may need to be amended in the near future to reflect the City Council' s desires for consistency with other communities. It should be noted that the current Sullivan Park facilities are sparse as it relates to playground equipment. PLANNING & ZONING MINUTES JULY 9, 2002 PAGE 6 Trail connection - Staff visited the site and has spoken with Bruce Nedegaard about a trail connection to the Medtronic pathway on the north side of the property. Bruce has indicated that he is willing to put this connection in ifMedtronic is willing to allow for it. In this scenario, Medtronic would need to be contacted and agree to allow for an easement to tap into the existing pathway. It should be noted that the City does currently have utility access to a portion of land adjacent to the trail that could be utilized for a possible path connection. Staff would strongly recommend this be accomplished if possible, and would allow for actual trail connections between the development and Sullivan Lake, as well as a trail connection between the development and Medtronic. Miscellaneous The Fire Department has reviewed the plat and had a few minor concerns. Most of these concerns have been resolved. The only remaining issue to be worked out is access to all the buildings in case of fire. They want to be able to get to each building without the need of extensions. Engineering also had some concerns. The City Engineer will be reviewing the revisions and will submit his recommendation to the City Council prior to the July 22, 2002 meeting. This is noted as one of the conditions listed as part of the motion. The positive aspects of this proposal are as follows: This development is the type of upgrade market-rate housing that is needed in order for economic growth to occur. This is an in-fill site adjacent to an existing park and lake, and represents a quality development that requires-no subsidy and adds to the overall tax base. There are no negative aspects of this proposal assuming all the conditions are met. Commissioner Ericson inquired about the park dedication fees and if there are any established policies regarding their use. Planner Johnson responded that the current Ordinance language does not address the use of the park dedication fees. He felt the Commission could provide a recommendation, but it is ultimately up to the Council how these park dedication fees would be allocated. Staff recommends approval of the Site Plan and the Preliminary and Final Plat for Parkside Village, as the proposed plat is consistent with the City Subdivision Ordinance and is consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan. PLANNING & ZONING MINUTES JULY 9, 2002 PAGE 7 At this time there was some discussion regarding the site plan and some questions were raised. Commissioner Schmitt asked about the parking for each unit. Mr. Nedegam'd informed the members that each unit has a two car garage and also parking for two vehicles outside the garage. He explained this is pretty common in townhome developments. It was noted that parking along 51st Avenue is not restricted, so additional visitors could park on the street. Yehle asked what the price range would be for the townhouse units. Nedgaard responded they would sell in the range of $200,000 to $250,000. Final costs have yet to be determined, depen.d~g on conditions that must be met. Johnson asked who would manage the association after the project is complete. Nedegaard responded that BAN Management (his property management company) would be the property managers for the first three years at least. Al Bates of 724 51st Avenue lives across the street fi:om the proposed project. He stated that he thought the density of the project was "overkill". He felt it was too many units crowded into a small space. He thinks the project will look like row housing. He would rather have seen the senior project that was proposed a few years ago be built rather than this one. He thought it would have been a better fit for the area and a better use of the property. Ericson asked about the lighting in the subdivision. Roger Humphrey, Humphrey Engineering, stated that street lights would not be used. There are akeady lights around the park trail, which is adequate for the park area. Normal garage lights will be used on each townhouse unit. Yehle questioned their plan to widen the present park entrance for use by the subdivision and park visitors. There was some discussion regarding setting precedence of using park land for the benefit of the proposed project. Even though this can be decided on a case by case basis, there was concern because of other potential developments being considered. The Engineer stated that storm drain work and improvements will need to be done in this access area and they felt it was a perfect place for the overflow parking that could be used by both the Public for park use and for visitors to the townhouse residents. This could be done by establishing an access easement, and by drawing up an agreement so that maintenance of the access and parking area would be done by the Association. The Commission members also felt that the park dedication fees should be used to improve Sullivan Lake Park specifically as more people and children will be using the park. Some of the fees could also be used to replace the fencing that is currently there and in poor condition. PLANNING & ZONING MINUTES JULY 9, 2002 PAGE 8 Motion by Johnson, second by Yehle, to recommend City Council approval of the Preliminary and Final Plat for Parkside Village as the proposal is consistent with the City Subdivision Ordinance, and also is consistent: with the City Comprehensive Plan. AH ayes. MOTION PASSED. Motion by Johnson, second by Yehle, to recommend City Council approval of the Preliminary and Final Plat for Parkside Pillage and aH that identified on the plat submitted at 825 51st Avenue NE, subjeCt to the following conditions: 1. City Engineer review and approval of Final Plat, and any changes deemed necessary. 2. City Council review and approval of park dedication fees of $750 per unit and that such fees be used to improve Sullivan Lake Park. 3. . Fire Department review and approval of access and watermain issues and any changes deemed necessary. 4. Development Agreement defining requirements and responsibilities of City and Developer. 5. Developer required to make a connection on the north side of the development to the Medtronic walking pathway that connects to the Sullivan Lake pathway. 6. That City Staff and the City Attorney review the potential use and maintenance of the access entrance to the park and subdivision, as well as additional parking area. All ayes. MOTION PASSED. NEW BUSINESS Request for Project Extension-Heritage Properties (Rainbow Site) The Heritage Pi'operty Investment Group has requested a one-year extension of the site plan approvals that were granted for the multi-tenant retail space by the Planning & Zoning Commission on August 7, 2001. At that time the Commission approved separate but concurrent site plans for the Central Valu Center at 4300 Central Ave for a Rainbow Fueling Center and a 9,000 square foot multi-tenant retail building to be constructed in the front portion of the parking lot. These site plan approvals are valid for a period of one year, during which some substantial development or construction shall take place. The Rainbow Fueling Center building permits were issued but no construction has taken place to date. Staff is expecting construction to start this summer. However, the retail building has not been started and they are requesting a one- year extension of their site plan approvals. Jim Hoeft, attorney, indicated that the Planning & Zoning Commission should consider the matter and make a motion regarding the request. This request is a result of numerous staff contacts to keep the formerly approved project alive. The extension would allow the property owners some additional time to get the project started. It was noted that two project managers have left since the project was proposed. This turnover has caused problems with filling the potential retail spaces. PLANNING & ZONING MINUTES JULY 9, 2002 PAGE 9 Staff recommends the Commission grant the one-year extension to Heritage Property for the proposed retail operation at 4300 Central Avenue NE. Motion by Yehle, second by Schmitt , to approve a one year extension of the site plan approvals for the multi-tenant retail operation at 4300 Central Avenue NE. All ayes. MOTION PASSED. MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS Bob Streetar, Community Development Director, informed the Commission that the City Council had passed an Emergency Ordinance calling for a Moratorium on the I-1 and 1-2 Zoned prope/Cies south of 40th to 37th Avenue and fi.om 3ra Street to Jackson St. This is meant to keep the Commission informed of Council Action in reference to the proposed re-development of this particular area. Motion by Yehle, second by Johnson, to adjourn the meeting at 8:02pm. All ayes.

Currently 325 Summit Street consists of three lots (Lots 16, 17, 18) and measures approximately 11,730 square feet in size. The City is proposing to split off a portion of this property (Tract B), which will be used for a street and alley reconfiguration. Case Historw There are no previous Planning and Zoning Commission cases on this site. ANALYSIS Surrounding Property: The surrounding property to the north is a commercial business. The properties to the south and east are single and multi-family residential. The properties to the west are City-owned properties and are vacant. THE CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE ON THE BASIS Of DISABILITY IN EMPLOYMENT or THE PROVISION OF SERVICES EQUAL OPPOrtUNiTY EMPLOYER CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS 590 40th Avenue N.E., Columbia Heights, MN 55421-3878 (763) 706-3600 TDD (763) 706-3692 Visit Our Website at: www. ci. cohtmbia-heights.mn, us Case: 2002-0704 Page: 2 Technical Review: Section 9.903 of the Columbia Heights Zoning Ordinance regulates lot area, setback, height and lot coverage requirements in the Residential Districts, and Section 9.603 regulates accessory structures and lot coverages. Applicable requirements are as follows. Minimum lot size shall be 6,500 square feet for a single family home - the proposed split will provide 325 Summit Street consisting of Lots 17 and 18, with 8,410 square feet (Tract A), and will allow for Lot 16 (Tract B) with 3,320 square feet, to be separated from Tract A. A portion of Tract B will actually be used for the proposed street and alley reconfiguration, and a portion is proposed to be combined with adjacent City-owned properties for redevelopment purposes. Any lot over 6,500 square feet may have a lot coverage of up to 30% - the lot coverage will be well under 30%, so the proposal meets these requirements. The City currently owns 3944 and 3950 Lookout Place, which are vacant commercial properties. The City has purchased the former Conoco gas station property at 3955 University Avenue, and is closing on the property by September. The City also owns 325 Summit Street, and with the proposed lot split a portion of Lookout Place would eventually be vacated, and the adjacent alley reconfigured. This reconfiguration would allow for a functional future redevelopment site of approximately one acre. The City is also currently negotiating to purchase the commercial business at 322 40th Avenue NE, thereby creating a more usable, larger and functional property. A future vacation of a portion of Lookout Place would create a safer intersection and open up a future redevelopment opportunity for the 40th and University Avenue corridor. Compliance with Ci_ty Comprehensive Plan: The City Comprehensive Plan designates this area for future transit-oriented development, and the intended redevelopment of this area is consistent with the Comp Plan. Summary: · The proposal is consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan and meets the minimum requirements of the Columbia Heights Zoning Ordinance. CONCLUSION Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the lot split as it meets the technical standards of the Zoning Ordinance and is consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan. Recommended Motion: Move to recommend City Council approval of Resolution 2002-49, as the lot split is consistent with City subdivision standards.
