City of Columbia Heights MINUTES April 02, 2024 Planning Commission Meeting Page 2 Motion by Kaiser, seconded by Gianoulis, to approve the minutes from the meeting of February 6, 2024. All ayes. MOTION PASSED. PUBLIC HEARINGS 5. Minor Subdivision (Lot Line Adjustment) 334 and 344 40th Avenue NE Introduction: Boucher explained that Michael Gondek, owner of Gondek Properties LLC, has requested approval of a Minor Subdivision, per City Code Section 9.104 (k), for abutting parcels of land located at 334 and 344 40th Avenue NE. The subject sites are both zoned GB-General Business. 334 40th is occupied by a small two-tenant commercial building, and 344 40th, is occupied by a single-family home. The properties are located near commercial uses to the west, northwest, and southwest. To the north and east of the subject sites there are single -family homes. The applicant is the owner of both properties, and they are requesting the lot line adjustment because some of the parking area for the commercial propert y at 334 40th is located on the single- family lot at 344 40th. This condition was created when the owner purchased the adjacent single- family home to provide more off-street parking for the commercial property. The proposed lot line adjustment will allow the commercial parking area to be fully located on the commercial parcel at 334 40th. To be noted, the applicant is also proposing to establish a 35’ X 16’ driveway easement, and 20’ X 20’ parking easement on the commercial property (post lot line adjustmen t) that will be in favor of the single-family parcel. These easements will allow future users/owners of the single- family residential property access and parking on the commercial property. The single-family residential property also has parking to the rear of the site that is accessible from the alley to the south. Should the easement be vacated in the future, the single-family property will still have adequate parking on-site. Boucher reviewed the issues and analysis: Lot Requirements. In consideration of the minor subdivision application, a determination should be made that the newly created lots meet the minimum lot area and width requirements of the applicable GB-General 38 Business zoning district. According to Section 9.110.C of the Zoning Ordinance, lots within GB Districts must have a minimum lot area of 6,000 square feet and a minimum width of 40 feet. Presently, the west parcel (334 40th Avenue) measures approximately 12,910 square feet in size and has a width of 105 feet. As a result of the proposed lot line adjustment, the parcel would be increased to 15,230 square feet in size and increased in width to 132 feet on the north end of the parcel (along 40th Avenue). Presently, the east parcel (344 40th Avenue), measures 8,610 square feet in size and has a width of 70 feet. As a result of the proposed lot line adjustment, the parcel would be decreased to 6,290 square feet in size and decreased in width to 43 feet on the north end of the parcel (along 40th Avenue). Both proposed lots meet the minimum area and lot width requirements of the GB District. 4 Item 1. City of Columbia Heights MINUTES April 02, 2024 Planning Commission Meeting Page 3 Setbacks. The proposed lot line adjustment will result in a change to side yard structure setbacks. According to Section 9.110.C of the Zoning Ordinance, lots within the GB District do not have sid e yard setback requirements, as structures can be placed right up to the side yard property line. As a result of the proposed lot line adjustment, part of the side yard structure setback for the commercial building on the west parcel will be increased from 1.3 feet to 28.3 feet while the side yard setback for the single-family home on the east parcel will be reduced from 35 feet to 8 feet. After the adjustment, both proposed lots will meet the minimum structure setback requirements of the GB District. The minimum side-yard parking setback in the GB District is 5 feet. The proposed lot line adjustment will bring the existing commercial parking area fully onto the commercial lot. The side yard setback for the parking area after the adjustment will result in a compliant 5-foot setback. Easements. The submitted survey does not illustrate any drainage and utility easements upon the subject properties. Thus, it is not necessary to vacate an easement along the shared side lot line. As previously mentioned, the applicant is also proposing to establish a 35’ X 16’ driveway easement, and 20’ X 20’ parking easement on the commercial property (post lot line adjustment) that will be in favor of the single-family parcel. Recording. As a condition of minor subdivision approval, the applicant will be responsible for the filing the approved subdivision with the Anoka County Recorder’s Office. If the minor subdivision is not filed with the Anoka County recorder’s Office within one year of the date of City Council approval, it will become invalid. FINDINGS OF FACT Section 9.104 (K) of the Zoning Code outlines specific conditions in order for the City Council to approve a minor subdivision. They are as follows: 1. The proposed subdivision of land will not result in more than three lots. The proposed subdivision will result in two conforming lots. 2. The proposed subdivision of land does not involve the vacation of existing easements. No vacation of existing easements will occur as a result of the minor subdivision. 3. All lots to be created by the proposed subdivision conform to lot area and width requirements established for the zoning district in which the property is located. Both newly created lots will conform to the lot width and lot area requirements of the applicable GB-General Business zoning designation. 4. The proposed subdivision does not require the dedication of public rights-of-way for the purpose of gaining access to the property. The proposed subdivision does not require the dedication of public rights-of-way for the purpose of gaining access to the property. 5. The property has not previously been divided through the minor subdivision provisions of this article. The subject property has not previously been subdivided via a minor subdivision process. 6. The proposed subdivision does not hinder the conveyance of land. The proposed subdivision will not hinder the conveyance of land. 7. The proposed subdivision does not hinder the making of assessments or the keeping of records related to assessments. The proposed subdivision is not expected to hinder the making of assessments or the keeping of records related to assessments. 5 Item 1. City of Columbia Heights MINUTES April 02, 2024 Planning Commission Meeting Page 4 8. The proposed subdivision meets all the design standards specified in Section 9.115 . As a condition of minor subdivision approval, all applicable design standards of Section 9.115 of the Zoning ordinance must be satisfied. Recommendation: Staff review finds that the proposed Minor Subdivision (lot line adjustment) application meets the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. As a result, Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the proposed Minor Subdivision for the properties located at 334 and 344 40th Avenue NE, subject to certain conditions. Questions/Comments from Members: Kaiser asked if the applicant intends to expand the parking lot of the commercial property and if that was part of the scope of work. Boucher replied that it is not the applicant’s intent and instead is trying to organize everything so that there would not be any nonconformities in case he would like to sell the commercial or the residential property in the future. There are no longer term plans for this. Deneen asked if it was a rental property or if the owner lived in the home. Boucher replied that he believed that the owner lived in the home currently. Sahnow noted that the nonconforming property in this case is the commercial property. Boucher explained that technically both properties were nonconforming. Sahnow asked if the pavement from the parking lot was taken off of the residential property, would the commercial property would still have enough parking to meet the Ordinance for that commercial property. Boucher replied that he did not look into that and would have to come back with the answer. Chirpich explained the history of the property and noted that it is incomplete but at some point the commercial property owner acquired the single property because he was getting parking. He added parking to the single family property without going through the motions of the lot line adjustment. A building permit is not needed for a driveway. Thankfully, the owner has the authority to make it right. Sahnow noted while the revised lot line meets the zoning requirements for minimum lot sizes, it seems to reduce the viability of the property if the owner would like to sell it. If the asphalt was removed and the current lot line was kept from the residential property, it would maintain a wide property line. Boucher agreed and also noted that if the parking lot was not removed it would still be nonconforming and would have a barrier. Kaiser asked if Chirpich replied that it is a functionally obsolete property and does not have a permit use itself and is legally nonconforming. The property was conforming at the time it was built. Boucher added that since it is legally nonconforming, the property owner would not be able to expand upon the use due to the zoning use not allowing it. 6 Item 1. City of Columbia Heights MINUTES April 02, 2024 Planning Commission Meeting Page 5 Moses asked if the recommendation was to move the lot line due to not enough parking spaces. Boucher replied it was due to parking setbacks. Moses asked if the proposal was to move the lot line to the residential property so that there would be enough of a setback. Boucher agreed. Deneen asked if the bituminous on the back of parcel A was a driveway going into a garage. Boucher replied that it was asphalt and a driveway. Public Hearing Opened. There were no public comments. Public Hearing Closed. Motion by Gianoulis, seconded by Moses, to waive the reading of the draft Resolution 2024-19, there being ample copies available to the public. All ayes. MOTION PASSED. Motion by Deneen, seconded by Sahnow, that the Planning Commission recommends to the City Council to approve Resolution 2024-19, approving a Minor Subdivision (lot line adjustment) for the properties located at 334 and 344 40th Avenue NE, within the City of Columbia Heights, Minnesota, subject to certain conditions stated in the resolution. All ayes. MOTION PASSED. OTHER BUSINESS 6. Review Purchase of 4416 Central Avenue NE Introduction: Boucher stated pursuant to State Statue, Section 462.356, Subdivision 2, the Planning and Zoning Commission (the “Planning Commission”) in and for the City is required to review and ultimately determine that the proposed acquisition of real property by the City’s Economic Development Authority (EDA), conforms to the Comprehensive Plan of the Ci ty. Therefore, the EDA has requested that the Planning Commission review the acquisition of 4416 Central Avenue NE, Columbia Heights, MN 55421 (the “Subject Property”) to determine if its acquisition conforms to the Comprehensive Plan of the City. Boucher noted The EDA has a long-standing practice of acquiring blighted single-family homes to facilitate scattered site redevelopment, and the proposed acquisition of the Subject Property responds to several goals and policies adopted in the Comprehensive Plan. Specifically, in Chapter 3: Land Use. Below are the specific goals and policies from the Comprehensive Plan that directly and indirectly correlate to the conformity of the proposed acquisition. LAND USE AND REDEVELOPMENT Goal: Provide mechanisms for successful redevelopment of vacant lands and targeted areas within the community. 1. Enhance the image and viability of the Central Avenue corridor while protecting and enhancing adjacent residential areas. 7 Item 1. City of Columbia Heights MINUTES April 02, 2024 Planning Commission Meeting Page 6 2. Encourage infill development that demonstrates compatibility with existing neighborhood characteristics in terms of quality, design, building height, placement, scale, and architectural quality. Questions/Comments from Members: Deneen asked what about the property would be considered blighted and how did it come to the attention of the City. Chirpich replied that it is not a blighted property or poor condition but is certainly functionally absent. He added that the City has a specific redevelopment program that targets properties such as the one being discussed. The property came to the attention of the City through the owner’s family since the occupant had passed away and the property got transferred to the siblings. The new owners were aware of the City’s imitative and contacted the City to make Staff aware of the property. He noted that the EDA has discussed that the depths of the lots are challenging on the corridor and it is a long term strategy of acquiring the properties to create deeper commercial lots. He added that it is likely that when the Comprehensive Plan is reviewed, Staff will identify blocks or areas that could be envisioned for larger redevelopment efforts. Buesgens explained that two Council’s ago, they voted to start to try to acquire the small houses on Central Avenue for redevelopment. There were 22 houses at the time and 3-5 homes have been acquired by the City since then. Ahmed asked if the house was ever put up for public sale. Chirpich replied that it was not. Deneen asked what the plan was for the lot and if they were going to decommission or demo the house. Chirpich replied that it will be a vacant lot and it is still being determined on how it will get to that point. Currently, the Fire Department is working on their training exercises. The EDA has engaged with Deconstruction Services Company and will continue to work with them to determine how much value can be extracted from some of the building materials. Buesgens noted that one of the advantages on purchasing the house is that it gives the City leverage so that it gives the City some control if a developer comes in. Kaiser expressed his gratitude for being so proactive. Deneen stated that she likes that the City is bringing in decommission agents because sustainability is important. Gianoulis agreed. Moses asked if Staff had received any feedback from surrounding neighbors on what they thought about the lot. Chirpich replied that Staff have engaged with the nearby multifamily property to let them know that it was coming. He added that the process with the current home owner has been well received. Motion by Kaiser, seconded by Gianoulis, to waive the reading of Resolution 2024-PZ02,, there being ample copies available to the public. All ayes. MOTION PASSED. Motion by Moses, seconded by Deneen, to adopt Resolution 2024-PZ02, a resolution finding that 8 Item 1. City of Columbia Heights MINUTES April 02, 2024 Planning Commission Meeting Page 7 the acquisition of certain land for redevelopment purposes by the Columbia Heights Economic Development Authority is consistent with the City of Columbia Heights’ Comprehensive Plan. All ayes. MOTION PASSED. ADJOURNMENT Motion by Gianoulis, seconded by Moses to adjourn the meeting at 6:45 pm. All ayes. MOTION PASSED.

This application is identical to an interim use permit request approved by the City in May of last year which made a temporary allowance for the sale of fireworks upon the subject site. The temporary allowance of the activity was however, granted for and applied to the 2023 calendar year. Thus, the processing of a new interim use permit (for 2024) is necessary. The specific development standards for outdoor fireworks sales/display are provided in Section 9.107 (C) (22) of the City Code and are included as recommended conditions of approval for this permit. The configuration and orientation of the fireworks tent upon the subject site is illustrated on the attached property and tent location map. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan designates the property for commercial use. The proposal for seasonal fireworks sales, a retail activity, is consistent with the intent of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. ZONING ORDINANCE The subject property is zoned CBD, Central Business within which “seasonal fireworks sales” are listed as an interim use and therefore subject to interim use permit processing . Properties located north and west of the site are likewise zoned Central Business. Properties located to the east are zoned R-4, Multiple Family Residential while the site to the south of the subject property is zoned as a Planned Unit Development, which includes a mixture of multi-family residential, commercial, and institutional uses. in the Central Business Zoning District. 10 Item 2.

Fireworks tents are specifically listed as an interim use in the Central Business District, and are considered a retail sales activity, which is permitted. (b) The use is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan designates the property for commercial use, including retail sales. The proposal is consistent with the intent of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. (c) The use will not impose hazards or disturbing influences on neighboring properties. The proposed temporary use should not impose hazardous or disturbing influences on neighboring properties because of its proximity to Central Avenue.

(d) The use will not substantially diminish the use of property in the immediate vicinity. The fireworks tent is not expected to diminish the use of the adjacent properties. (e) The use will be designed, constructed, operated and maintained in a manner that is compatible with the appearance of the existing or intended character of the surrounding area. The Fire Department will conduct an on-site inspection prior to any temporary sales.

PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA SECTION PUBLIC HEARINGS MEETING DATE MAY 7, 2024 ITEM: Zoning Ordinance Amendment to amend 9.106 General Development Standards (M) Landscaping and Screening to include Tree Preservation and Planting Standards DEPARTMENT: Community Development BY/DATE: Andrew Boucher, City Planner April 18, 2024 CASE NUMBER: 2024-PZ04 APPLICANT: The City of Columbia Heights LOCATION: Citywide REQUEST: Zoning Ordinance Amendment PREPARED BY: Andrew Boucher, City Planner INTRODUCTION: At the April Work Session, City Council discussed a potential amendment to City Code 9.106 General Development Standards in relation to amending Landscape and Screening Requirements to include Tree Preservation and Planting Standards and directed the City Planner and Urban Forester to prepare a zoning text amendment for the May 7, 2024 Planning Commission meeting. Tree preservation ordinances were examined by peer-reviewing other cities such as Fridley, New Hope, Shakopee, St. Anthony’s Village, Maple Grove, and Minneapolis for key components. Fridley, St. Anthony’s Village, and Minneapolis do not have tree preserva tion ordinances. Additionally, staff have consulted with the League of Minnesota Cities and the City Forester for their guidance on what a model ordinance should include. SUMMARY OF CURRENT STATUS: At the time, staff felt it was necessary to amend the existing ordinances to establish a process to include the City Forester in development review and adopt standards aligned with industry and agency best practices as well as reflecting the securities and letter of credit language that is seen across municipali ties. The ordinance currently does not reflect the most up-to-date information, standards, or processes that ensure successfully mature tree canopies or preservation of the existing canopy. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in F.P. Development, LLC vs. Charter Township of Canton, Michigan found that, Canton’s ordinance classification of certain trees as “significant trees”, created permitting requirements, restricted tree removal, and required mitigation for removal. A property owner that removed trees was required to either pay into a town fund or replant trees; the town enforced action against a developer that removed 159 trees and argued that, under the ordinance, the developer had to replant trees or pay the town approximately $50,000. The 6th Circuit found that the ordinance violated the Fifth Amendment’s “unconstitutional conditions” doctrine, if a permit is conditioned on the waiver of constitutional rights, then the local government permitting may be found unconstitutional. Local governments may choose whether and how a permit applicant mitigates developmental impacts, but they must establish an “essential nexus and rough proportionality to those impacts” and “make some sort of 31 Item 3. Page 2 individualized determination that the required mitigation is related both in nature and extent to the impact of the proposed development.” ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT By using the most recent versions of the ANSI A300 and ISA Best Management Practices for tree management during construction as well as the MN DNR “Pocket Guide to Planting Trees”, the amendment to City Code (9.106 General Development Standards) to include tree preservation language and planting standards in the Landscaping and Screening section reflects industry and agency standards and best practices. In this regard, the following Zoning Ordinance modifications are recommended by Staff with the full draft ordinance attached: 1) Amending 9.106 M to read as “Tree Preservation and Planting Standards for Landscaping and Screening” and including language recognizing the value and benefits to preserving and increasing tree canopy cover of Columbia Heights by protecting and preserving mature trees during construction and development. 2) Adopting ANSI A300 Part 5 – Management of Tres and Shrubs During Site Planning, Site Development, and Construction & ISA Best Management Practices – Managing Trees During Construction and apply these industry and agency standards, definitions, and best practices to all demolition, building permit applications, land alteration permits, public or private, that require a survey. A construction tree inventory plan and tree protection plan shall be reviewed, approved, and inspected by the City Forester and replacement policy calculations shall be subject to a size-based replacement policy. 3) Defining criteria for the removal of protected and removable trees; protected trees may be removed within the footprint of the building pad of a new or remodeled building, or within a 10’ radius of the footprint as well as within driveways and parking areas meeting all other City ordinances as well as establishing replacement requirements, exemptions, and the process for removing protected trees that are dead, diseased, or hazardous. 4) Establishing protected tree varieties, soil volume requirements, definitions and rules for calculating soil volume in Table 1, Table 2, and Appendix B, respectively. 5) Updating the letter of credit or other security language to reflect the estimated cost of landscaping and/or screening and including language stating that the property owner is responsible for continued maintenance of landscaping and screening materials to remain in compliance with the requirements of this section, plant material that shows signs of disease shall be Staff Review The Public Works Department, Police Department, and Fire Department have been provided copies of the application materials and had no concerns amending the Landscaping and Screening requirements to include Tree Preservation and Planting Standards. The proposed zoning text amendment is subject to review by the City Attorney for the purposes of determining if the proposed ordinance establishes an essential nexus and rough proportionality between the impact of the development and the standard required by code; the ordinance must also document an individualized determination process after the standards are applied. FINDINGS OF FACT 32 Item 3. Page 3 Section 9.104 (F) of the Zoning Ordinance outlines certain findings of fact that must be met in order for the City to grant approval for a zoning amendment. The findings are as follows: (a) The amendment is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan identifies community resilience, climate adaptation, public health, equity, and sustainability as Emerging Topics. One of the key land use goals identified in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan includes enhancing community gateways, prioritizing landscaping and other forms of buffering between uses, and continuing the City’s participation in Tree City USA. (b) The amendment is in the public interest and is not solely for the benefit of a single property owner. A healthy, resilient and robust urban forest, tree canopy, and landscaping enhances the aesthetic, environmental, and economic well-being of the City by establishing buffers between non-compatible land uses, screen unsightly views, reduce noise and glare, minimize stormwater runoff as well as offer carbon sequestration, erosion mitigation, and reduction of the urban heat island effect. (c) Where the amendment is to change the zoning classification of a particular property, the existing use of the property and the zoning classification of property within the general area of the property in question are compatible with the proposed zoning classification. The amendment is not to change the zoning classification of a particular property and the existing use is compatible with the general area of the property. (d) Where the amendment is to change the zoning classification of a particular property, there has been a change in the character or trend of development in the general area of the property in question, which has taken place since such property was placed in its current zoning classification. The amendment is not to change the zoning classification of a particular property. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend the following to the City Council: A. Approval of the Zoning Ordinance Amendment which amends City Code 9.106 General Development Standards and establishes Tree Preservation and Planting Standards for Landscaping and Screening as presented. RECOMMENDED MOTION(S): MOTION: Move to waive the reading of draft Ordinance amendment No. 1696, there being ample copies available to the public. MOTION: Move to recommend that the Planning Commission give a positive recommendation on draft Ordinance amendment No. 1696 to City Council to approve draft Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 1696 as presented. 33 Item 3.

ITEM: Update to 9.106 General Development Standards to Include Tree Preservation DEPARTMENT: Community Development BY/DATE: Andrew Boucher, City Planner April 1, 2024 CORE CITY STRATEGIES: (please indicate areas that apply by adding an “X” in front of the selected text below) X Healthy and Safe Community _Equitable, Diverse, Inclusive, and Friendly _Trusted and Engaged Leadership _Thriving and Vibrant Destination Community _Strong Infrastructure and Public Services X Sustainable BACKGROUND: Tree preservation, landscaping, and the urban canopy have been identified by the City of Columbia Heights through 2040 Comprehensive Plan goals per Land Use and Redevelopment Goals and Policies to provide a natural buffer between uses and promote community health . However, the current Zoning Code does not specifically address tree preservation or planting standards and should include measures to ensure the long- term health and safety are maintained during the development process and so trees can mature in a way that they are productive and beneficial to the urban canopy. The City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan identifies community resilience, climate adaptation, public health, equity, and sustainability as Emerging Topics. One of the key land use goals identified in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan includes enhancing community gateways, prioritizing landscaping and other forms of buffering between uses, and continuing the City’s participation in Tree City USA. By using the most recent versions of the ANSI A300 and ISA Best Management Practices for tree management during construction as well as the MN DNR “Pocket Guide to Planting Trees”, the amendment to City Code (9.106 General Development Standards) to include tree preservation language and planting standards i n the Landscaping and Screening section would reflect industry and agency standards and best practices. Columbia Heights can maintain and enhance the urban canopy by: • Applying preservation, protection, and replacement standards of Protected Trees to all permits that require a survey and including the City Forester in the review process to approve tree inventory and protection plans as well as conducting inspections. • Establishing standards for the removal of protected and removable trees as well as newly planted and replacement trees to ensure diversity and resiliency of the canopy, soil volume requirements and formulas for calculating soil volume, and defining protected tree varieties. • Defining replacement requirements based on size and plantings in accordance with the standards set forth in the MN Department of Natural Resources publication “Pocket Guide to Planting Trees” • Adjusting the letter of credit or other security, as acceptable to the city, from 10% of the tree, landscaping, and screening estimated cost to an amount equal to the estimated cost. The letter of CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MEETING AGENDA SECTION WORK SESSION ITEM MEETING DATE APRIL 1, 2024 35 Item 3. City of Columbia Heights - Council Letter Page 2 credit or other security as acceptable to the city, or portions, thereof, shall be forfeited to maintain and/or replace materials for a period of time to include at least two growing seasons. A portion of the letter of credit or other security as acceptable to the City may be released after one growing season; after two growing seasons, the security can be released minus costs incurred through damage or replacement. SUMMARY OF CURRENT STATUS: At the time, staff felt it was necessary to amend the existing ordinances to establish a process to include the City Forester in development review and adopt standards aligned with industry and agency best practices as well as reflecting the securities and letter of credit language that is seen across municipalities. The ordinance currently does not reflect the most up-to-date information, standards, or processes that ensure successfully mature tree canopies or preservation of the existing canopy. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in F.P. Development, LLC vs. Charter Township of Canton, Michigan found that, Canton’s ordinance classification of certain trees as “significant trees”, created permitting requirements, restricted tree removal, and required mitigation for removal. A property owner that removed trees was required to either pay into a town fund or replant trees; the town enforced action against a developer that removed 159 trees and argued that, under the ordinance, the developer had to replant trees or pay the town approximately $50,000. The 6th Circuit found that the ordinance violated the Fifth Amendment’s “unconstitutional conditions” doctrine, if a permit is conditioned on the waiver of constitutional rights, then the local government permitting may be found unconstitutional. Local governments may choose whether and how a permit applicant mitigates developmental impacts, but they must establish an “essential nexus and rough proportionality to those impacts” and “make some sort of individualized determination that the required mitigation is related both in nature and extent to the impact of the proposed development.” Tree preservation ordinances were examined by peer-reviewing other cities such as Fridley, New Hope, Shakopee, St. Anthony’s Village, Maple Grove, and Minneapolis for key components. Fridley, St. Anthony’s Village, and Minneapolis do not have tree preservation ordinances. Additionally, staff has consulted with the League of Minnesota Cities and the City Forester for their guidance on what a model ordinance should include. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council direct staff on whether to pursue a tree preservation and planting standards ordinance and have the City Attorney review the proposed language for purposes of determining if the ordinance establishes an essential nexus and rough proportionality and documents an individualized determination process after applying the standards.

Exclusively refers to either uncompacted native soils (no greater than 80% Proctor), or amended soils meeting the Minnesota Department of Transportation standards for approved topsoil, that are not covered by hardscape or paved surfaces. Available open soil. The uncovered length by width of a planting bed, multiplied by depth of preparation up to 36 inches deep. Most unprepared urban subgrade is highly compacted and does not qualify as available. 41 Item 3. City of Columbia Heights - Ordinance Page 6 Covered soil. Soil volume provided below hardscape or paved surfaces in the form of suspended soil cells or structural soil. Only 25% of the volume of structural soils may be counted towards soil volume requirements. Shared soil. Soil media shared by more than one tree in a planting bed sharing open soil, or an individual tree in a planting bed that is connected to other open soils via Soil Cells or Structural Soil. Areas of shared soil must have a continuous root path that does not restrict to less than 4 feet wide or 2 feet deep. Isolated soil. Soil media in a tree well or small enclosed planting bed that is not connected to other prepared soil volumes and is totally isolated by hardscape such as driveways, sidewalks, or vaults. Connected soil. Two or more areas of open soil that are connected below hardscape with either soil cells or structural soil. These connected beds can now qualify as shared soil. The following standards and exceptions apply to calculating soil volumes: 1) The total soil volume provided for a tree shall be calculated in cubic feet by adding the available open soil volume to the available covered soil volume within a 50-foot radius of the tree. 2) When total soil volume consists of more than one planter bed or open soil area, those areas must be connected by continuous root paths at least 4 feet wide and 2 feet deep. 3) Soil volumes for covered soil shall be calculated by using only the space available to roots and may not include the components providing structure. 90% of the volume of cell -type hardscape suspension systems may be counted towards total soil volume; 25% of the volume of structural soils may be counted towards total soil volume. A maximum depth of 36” may be used when calculating total soil volume; depths beyond 36” may not be counted t owards soil volume requirements. (6) Landscaping requirements. Landscaping shall be provided in accordance with the following requirements: a. All required setbacks shall be landscaped with turf grass, native grasses, trees, shrubs, vines, perennial flowering plants, or other pervious ground cover. b. A minimum of one tree shall be planted for every 50 feet of street frontage or fraction thereof. The trees shall be planted within the front yard and may be arranged in a cluster or placed at regular intervals to best complement existing landscape design patterns in the area. c.

Unauthorized significant tree removal . 1. Any person, firm, or corporation who removes or causes the loss of a significant tree identified to be preserved on an approved tree preservation plan or without a permit allowing woodland alteration, shall be required to complete 1 of the following as determined by the city: 1. Installation of replacement trees within the same development at a 1:2 DBH (remove:replace); or 2. Payment to the city of $500 for every one inch of significant tree removed that was unauthorized. Measurement of each tree will be at DBH or diameter of the stump, whichever is readily available. This amount may be taken by the city from the financial security posted by the applicant for tree replacement, if any. A minimum of $15,000 payment will be required if measurements are unavailable. 2. This provision also applies to a conservation easement area that is disturbed during or after development as well as removing a publicly managed tree of any size without written city authorization. 3.

The applicant shall provide the city with a cash escrow, or other form of security that the city deems acceptable, in the amount of 150% of the total tree replacement estimate. 1. Formula. Number of replacement trees x tree replacement estimate x 150%= financial security due. 2. The financial security required for the replacement trees is due prior to the issuance of the grading permit or the commencement of any woodland alteration activity. 3. All replacement trees must be warrantied to guarantee survival. The warranty period shall begin upon inspection and acceptance by city staff of the installed trees for proper planting, size, species, health, and location. If at any time during the warranty period replacement trees are found to be unhealthy by city staff they are required to be replaced with the same size and species by the applicant at the soonest appropriate planting time. 1. For commercial/industrial sites and residential developers, up to 75% of the financial security may be returned upon inspection and acceptance by the city of installed trees and the submittal of a city-approved two year warranty from the landscape contractor who installed the trees. This warranty must cover tree health issues relating to excess or insufficient water. The remaining financial security will be held by the city for 2 years. When reducing the financial security, 75% will be returned unless city staff feels the trees have a heightened risk of failure. 2. For builders of individual residential lots within a subdivision who receives a one-year warranty from the landscape contractor who installed the trees, 100% of the financial security will be returned upon: 60 Item 3. Tree PreservaƟon Ordinance Research 1. Inspection and acceptance of installed trees by the city; and 2. Providing the lot buyer with the copy of the two-year warranty from the landscape contractor and contact information to make a claim on the warranty. 4.

Any person desiring to develop all or part of any property within a T-zone shall submit an applicaƟon (subdivision, site plan, planned unit development, among others) to the city's community and economic development department together with a filing fee as set forth in chapter 16, arƟcle XI, of this Code. Accompanying the appropriate applicaƟon shall be the following: a) Tree inventory. Tree inventory shall include the species, diameter, condiƟon and locaƟon of all trees at least eight DBH inches and shall be prepared by a forester, natural resources specialist, cerƟfied arborist, landscape architect or another qualified individual. Such qualified individual shall require approval by the community development director. b) Tree preservaƟon plan. The tree preservaƟon plan shall show and specify: i) Total diameter inches and species composiƟon of trees at least eight DBH inches to be preserved; ii) Total number of diameter inches of trees at least eight DBH inches to be removed; iii) Limits of tree clearing, tree protecƟon zones and fencing; iv) LocaƟon, size and species of replacement trees required in secƟon; v) ConstrucƟon staging areas for parking and material storage including concrete washout areas; vi) LocaƟon of all underground uƟliƟes; vii) Dripline analysis showing the approximate locaƟon of the dripline from each tree. If a clear dripline cannot be established, said analysis shall esƟmate the dripline using a 1½-foot radius for the dripline for each inch of tree diameter; viii) Root cuƫng with a vibratory plow, trencher or other device approved by the director of community and economic development must be conducted along the limits of clearing adjacent to tree preservaƟon areas and a root cuƫng detail shall be provided; ix) Grading in the dripline shall be no more than one-third the radius of the es Ɵmated dripline or the tree shall be counted as removed in the plan. Said grading shall be only on one side of the tree. x) Fencing detail for any fencing required under secƟon 36-730. 62 Item 3. Tree PreservaƟon Ordinance Research xi) Signage details for any required signage under secƟon 36-730. xii) All tree removal shall be accounted for with the iniƟal plan and include proposed grading for all lots in a development. xiii) For single-family detached residenƟal property, trees within 20 feet of the building pad may be preserved but shall not count as preserved on the retenƟon schedule. c) Sequencing plan. The sequencing plan shall show the following sequencing schedule: i) Root cuƫng; ii) InstallaƟon of tree protecƟon fence and signage; iii) Grading. 2) Standards of preservaƟon during development. Development means part of a development proposal under review such as, but not limited to, a planned unit development or subdivision review. a.

For example, removal in a residenƟal PUD of 60 percent would have a 3:1 replacement raƟo, 61 percent removal would trigger at 4:1 replacement raƟo. 64 Item 3. Tree PreservaƟon Ordinance Research 4) Density bonus and transfer for residenƟal development. As an incenƟve to retain trees, density bonuses can be considered for preservaƟon. Density bonuses are based on the percentage of trees retained over 50 percent and apply to the area of a project that is in a T-zone. Density bonuses for T-zone preservaƟon can be in addiƟon to any density bonuses in the PUD secƟon. a. For each net acre, or porƟon thereof, above 50 percent of the T-zone area that is preserved, a density bonus may be considered. Wetland and floodplain areas will not count toward the calculated area of preservaƟon as these areas already have protecƟons. b. The density bonus shall be based on two Ɵmes the maximum density of the underlying land use guiding in the comprehensive plan. c. At least 55 percent of the inches must be retained before the density bonus shall apply. d. To calculate the total number of units allowed on a site, the bonus units would be added to the number of units using the base density mulƟplied by the net acres of the site for the parƟcular land use category. The base densiƟes are as follows and are based on historical averages for these land uses: i. Low-Medium Density: 2.5 units per acre. ii. Medium Density: 6.75 units per acre. iii. High Density: 18 units per acre. iv. Mixed Use High Density: 22 units per acre. e. Example table for a low-medium density guided site: Total T-zone Acres 10.0 Percent of T-zone acres preserved 60% Acres over 50% preserved 1.0 Base Density 2.5 units per acre Max Density in Comprehensive plan 4.0 units per acre Density Bonus 8.0 units per acre Bonus units (1 acre above 50% x Density Bonus) 8 Base units 25 65 Item 3. Tree PreservaƟon Ordinance Research Total Units with Bonus Units 33 Net Density 3.3 units per acre f. The addiƟonal units can be transferred to the remainder of the site or an alternaƟve site subject to city approval. g. The city may consider flexibility with regard to unit types and lot sizes to accommodate the greater amount of open space that would occur with greater tree preservaƟon. For example, smaller single-family lots or more aƩached housing in the low-medium residenƟal areas could be considered. h. For sites that have both T-zone areas and non-T-zone areas, density bonuses shall be calculated independently from each other. Open space preservaƟon bonuses would only be gained if open space was created in the non-T-zone area above what is required by code. i. The maximum density in low-medium residenƟal guided land may not be exceeded. 5) Standards of preservaƟon when not connected with a development review. This secƟon shall govern the development of individual vacant lots and/or new construcƟon in a T-zone in which removal was not previously accounted for through some other review process such as, but not limited to, planned unit development or subdivision review. Note that exisƟng homes proposing addiƟons, or other such improvements, will be subject to the requirements of secƟon 36-731. a. Single-family detached and two-family dwellings. The builder shall be responsible for working with the community development department for the protecƟon of the trees to be preserved on a parƟcular lot. i. The building pad shall include an area from the front lot line to a line 85 feet behind the front lot line. ii. The building pad shall extend across the enƟre width of the lot. iii. The builder shall be required to replace trees removed from within the building pad on a basis of one-half inch of replacement for each DBH inch of removal. iv. Trees protected within the building pad may count toward replacement at a raƟo of two inches of replacement for every DBH inch of trees protected. v. If trees are removed from the area outside the building pad, they shall be replaced at a raƟo of two inches of replacement for each DBH inch removed. b. Other development types: Development Type Removal limit before replacement is required (in DBH inches) AƩached single-family dwellings and apartments 50% 66 Item 3. Tree PreservaƟon Ordinance Research Development Type Removal limit before replacement is required (in DBH inches) Industrial 70% Commercial 80% c. Trees removed in excess of the removal limit above shall be replaced at a raƟo of two inches of replacement for each DBH inch removed. 6) Standards of preservaƟon in all other circumstances. Whenever trees are removed under any circumstances other than those idenƟfied in subsecƟons (2) and (5) of this secƟon, preservaƟon and replacement raƟos set forth in subsecƟon (5) shall apply. Sec. 36-729. - Replacement standards. a) As shown on a tree preservaƟon plan required in secƟon 36-728 (1)b, replacement shall occur in the following order: i) In the area from which the trees are removed. For single-family residenƟal developments, or other types of development as determined by the city council, said area shall be common areas, outlots or other lots other than private, individually owned lots. ii) If this is not desirable for the health or survival of the replacement trees, the trees shall be replanted elsewhere within the T-zone from which the trees were removed. For single-family residenƟal developments, or other types of development as determined by the city council, said area shall be common areas, outlots or other lots other than private, individually owned lots. iii) If this is also undesirable for the health or survival of the replacement trees, then the replanƟng may occur outside of the designated T-zone but shall occur within the development. For single-family residenƟal developments, or other types of development as determined by the city council, said area shall be common areas, outlots or other lots other than private, individually owned lots. iv) If this is not desirable for the health or survival of the replacement trees, then the landowner shall consult and work with the city to determine a beƩer alternaƟve planƟng locaƟon for the replacement trees. v) Otherwise, at the discreƟon of the city council, the tree conservaƟon fee shall be paid to the city in an amount as is set forth by the city council in the adopted fee schedule. Funds received by the tree conservaƟon fee will be maintained within a separate account and used to replant trees on public lands or within forest preservaƟon lands. b) Any replanƟng shall be done with overstory trees of the primary species of the affected forest. No more than 20 percent of the replacement trees shall be composed of any one genus. At planƟng, the trunks of deciduous trees shall be at least 2½ inches DBH. Coniferous trees shall be at least five feet in height. c) Replacement trees shall be idenƟfied as such unƟl they are eight inches in DBH, shall be considered at least eight inches in DBH regardless of size and shall be treated accordingly for purposes of this division. 67 Item 3. Tree PreservaƟon Ordinance Research d) A coniferous tree replacement shall be counted at a raƟo of one inch DBH for every two feet in height of the coniferous tree. e) If any replanƟng is to occur outside the limits of the T-zone, the parcel on which the replanƟng occurs shall be rezoned so as to be governed by the provisions of the T-zone. f) Any replacement tree required to be planted by secƟon 36-728 shall be in addiƟon to trees required to be planted on any residenƟal lot, including single-family detached, two- family or any lot needing to comply with the requirements of secƟon 36-831, Required landscaping. Sec. 36-730. - Requirements before and during construcƟon. a) Tree protecƟon and preservaƟon standards. i) Trees designated for preservaƟon shall be protected by a highly visible fence or other temporary structure deemed acceptable by the city. The protecƟon area shall be defined by the projecƟon of the tree dripline downward to the ground. If less protecƟon is necessary due to the proximity of building structures or infrastructure, such reduced protecƟon area shall require approval by the city prior to any construcƟon acƟvity taking place. ii) The locaƟon and means of tree protecƟon shall require inspecƟon and approval by the city prior to any construcƟon acƟvity taking place, including any grading work on the site.

Such surety shall remain in force for two full growing seasons following installaƟon of the replacement trees to guarantee survival. At the end of the second growing season or subsequent two-year period, the city shall review the project area in coordinaƟon with the applicant and shall make a determinaƟon to: a. Refund the appropriate performance surety; or b. Require the planƟng of new trees to replace the replacement trees which did not survive the iniƟal or subsequent two full growing seasons or subsequent periods unƟl such Ɵme as the replacement trees have survived two full growing seasons. 2) For purposes of this secƟon, all trees shall be alive and in saƟsfactory growing condiƟon at the end of two full growing seasons. The growing season shall include the period May 1 through September 30.

PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA SECTION PUBLIC HEARINGS MEETING DATE MAY 7, 2024 ITEM: Zoning Ordinance Amendment to amend 9.107 Specific Development Standards (16) Day Care Centers DEPARTMENT: Community Development BY/DATE: Andrew Boucher, City Planner April 25, 2024 CASE NUMBER: 2024-PZ05 APPLICANT: JDA Design Architects, Inc. on behalf of Mohamed Abdulle (2201 37th Avenue NE) LOCATION: Citywide REQUEST: Zoning Ordinance Amendment PREPARED BY: Andrew Boucher, City Planner INTRODUCTION: JDA Design Architects, Inc. representing Mohamed Abdulle has requested approval of a Zoning Ordinance Amendment to amend the Specific Development Standards in City Code 9.107 for Day Care Centers. The applicant is specifically proposing to modify (16)(c): a requirement for child day care centers to provide at least 75 sq. ft. of outdoor play area for each child under car e to allow for the submission of a written plan to use an adjacent public park to satisfy this requirement subject to approval by the City Manager or their designee. The proposed text amendment would make the City Code less restrictive and bring local requirements into alignment with MN State Statute 9502.0425 (Physical Environment) which allows day cares to use public parks if the on-site play areas are not sufficient. Staff have worked with the owner of 2201 37th Avenue NE, a block south of Prestemon Park, on a proposed child day care center building permit application through administrative review under the current code requirements providing a 2,700 sq. ft. on-site play area as well as on the proposed zoning text amendment which would allow the applicant to serve a greater number of children. The proposed zoning text amendment changes the child day care outdoor play area language to reflect the standards that allow adult day care facilities to use an adjacent park subject to approval of a written plan reviewed by the City Manager or their designee. Family Day Cares as defined in City Code 9.103 Definitions as “a facility that provides care, protection, and supervision of children in a private residence for periods of less than 24 hours” or “H ome Day Cares” as defined in City Code 9.107 Specific Development Standards are not included in the scope of this zoning text amendment as these have a different set of requirements and pertain to day care operations within residential houses. SUMMARY OF CURRENT STATUS: Staff has determined that the proposal is identical to a similar zoning text amendment the City processed and approved in 2017 to allow adult day care facilities use of an adjacent public park to satisfy outdoor play area requirements after this development standard was expressed to be a barrier to entry for a perspective day 75 Item 4. Page 2 care facility at the time. Staff recommended approval of the amendment so that an alternative approach to providing on-site outdoor space could be considered, which was approved by the City Council. In review of the zoning text amendment application, staff examined existing day care facilities and their outdoor play areas, zoning districts that allow child and adult day care facilities as uses, and identifying parks that would be within the 1,500-foot distance from any commercially zoned properties to better understand the impact of the proposed zoning text amendment. There are approximately 11 existing day care centers that this amendment would apply to, but each of these centers appears to provide on-site play areas or are on a site, such as a place of worship or school facility, that has those facilities readily available. Existing day care centers would be able to expand their operations if their occupancy is currently limited by the on-site play area, but this amendment would likely be more applicable to future day care centers. The proposed zoning text amendment would be applicable to only city parks that have a commercially zoned property within 1,500 feet of them where a future child day care center could propose a written plan for review to use the park. These parks are:  Edgemoor Park  Gauvitte Park  Huset Park  Labelle Park  Prestemon Park  Sullivan Lake Park The remaining parks are either outside the distance allowed for a day care to use the park or the parks do not have any commercial zones where a child day care center would be allowed. The property owners within 350 feet of each of these six parks were sent a Notice of Public Hearing regarding the zoning text amendment because staff determined it was appropriate, within the scope of the zoning text amendment, to give the public ample notice of the application and provide time for adequate public comment. Staff has received multiple written comments, phone calls, and in-person visits from residents at the writing of this report regarding the proposed zoning text amendment, these have been included as part of the public record. Any additional public comments received after this report is published will be read into the public record at the May 7, 2024 Planning Commission and included in the staff report as additional exhibits. Staff also examined the city code requirements of Andover, Big Lake, Maple Grove, Minneapolis, Minnetonka, Richfield, Roseville, and Saint Paul to better understand how cities are regulating day care facilities in relation to MN State Statute 9502.0425. Cities such as Andover, Richfield, and Roseville do not have specific development standards for day care centers and adhere to the state requirements. Big Lake, Maple Grove, and Saint Paul require play areas for day cares to be enclosed with a fence. Minneapol is allows for public parks to be used accessory to a child care center. ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT It is the opinion of staff that the proposed zoning text amendment, as presented, is consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan and would bring city code requirements in alignment with MN State Statute 9502.0425 governing the physical environments of day care facilities. The proposed text amendment is identical to a previous zoning ordinance amendment from 2017 that was approved by City Council and the requirement of an 76 Item 4. Page 3 approved written plan will benefit providers as well as the City to ensure that public access of the parks is not compromised. In this regard, the following Zoning Ordinance modification to City Code 9.107 Specific Development Standards is recommended by Staff and is highlighted in red: 1. The existing specific development standards for Day Care Centers shall be amended to include additional language for “child day care facilities” that specifies that if a subject property does not have sufficient outdoor play area on-site, then the property owner must submit a written proposal that demonstrates that recreational activities for adults under the facility’s care will be provided off-site subject to approval or denial by the City Manager or their designee. (C) Specific development standards. The following uses are subject to specific development standards: (16) Day care center (c) For child day care facilities, at least 75 square feet of outdoor play area shall be provided for each child under care. If there is not sufficient space for an outdoor play area on-site, then the property owner must submit a written proposal that demonstrates recreational activities for children under the facility’s care will be provided off-site within 1,500 feet of the facility. Staff Review The Public Works Department, Police Department, and Fire Department have been provided copies of the application materials and had no concerns regarding the amendment to allow child day care facilities to use a public park in lieu of an on-site play area. The City Attorney does not have any concerns regarding liability as these businesses are required to carry appropriate insurance to cover any potential damages. The City Building Official prepared a memorandum of understanding regarding the importance of accessible playground equipment at daycare facilities highlighting inclusivity, physical development, social interaction, legal compliance, and community engagement as reasons to consider maintaining the existing code, this memo is included as an attachment. FINDINGS OF FACT Section 9.104 (F) of the Zoning Ordinance outlines certain findings of fact that must be met in order for the City to grant approval for a zoning amendment. The findings are as follows: (a) The amendment is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan identifies establishing and maintaining a strong sense of community, strengthening the identity and image of the community as a desirable place to live, work, and play, and promoting the safety of residents and ensure a safe environment for pedestrians, bicyclists, and other vulnerable roadway users as some of the land use goals and policies. (b) The amendment is in the public interest and is not solely for the benefit of a single property owner. 77 Item 4. Page 4 The amendment is in the public interest and not solely for the benefit of a single property owner as the property owner has demonstrated a willingness to comply with the current code requirements and this has been a barrier to entry for numerous perspective day care providers to the extent that a previous zoning text amendment was approved for adult day care facilities. The proposed amendment will allow for more child care capacity and remove a barrier to entry for future day care providers while also providing the City with greater understanding how public parks are being used. (c) Where the amendment is to change the zoning classification of a particular property, the existing use of the property and the zoning classification of property within the general area of the property in question are compatible with the proposed zoning classification. The amendment is not to change the zoning classification of a particular property and the existing use is compatible with the general area of the property. (d) Where the amendment is to change the zoning classification of a particular property, there has been a change in the character or trend of development in the general area of the property in question, which has taken place since such property was placed in its current zoning classification. The amendment is not to change the zoning classification of a particular property. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend the following to the City Council: A. Approval of the Zoning Ordinance Amendment which amends City Code 9.107 Specific Development Standards for (16) Day Care Centers, allowing for the owner of a child day care center to submit a written plan, in lieu of providing an on-site play area, to use an adjacent public park for recreational activities subject to approval or denial by the City Manager or their designee. RECOMMENDED MOTION(S): MOTION: Move to waive the reading of draft Ordinance amendment No. 16 97, there being ample copies available to the public. MOTION: Move to recommend that the Planning Commission give a positive recommendation on draft Ordinance amendment No. 1697 to City Council to approve draft Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 1697 as presented.

The task force may also include landowners representing residential interests that may be affected. The task force will review alternatives for the proposed location. The applicant must submit an alternatives analysis to the task force that includes: a. documentation demonstrating the need and purpose for such a facility so that alternatives to the facility can be adequately assessed; b. all of the alternatives considered by the applicant; c. alternative locations; d. a “no-build” alternative that discusses measures that could be taken in an attempt to meet the documented need without construction of the facility; and e. designation of the applicant's preferred location. 2) The city may retain an independent technical expert paid for by the applicant to assist the task force. The expert must be acceptable to the applicant, who may not unreasonably withhold this acceptance. The applicant will have five business days to reject the city's selected expert after receiving notice from the city. If the applicant does not reject the expert within that time, the expert will be deemed95 Item 4. to be acceptable. The task force will conduct an analysis of the alternatives and present its report to the city council. The council will narrow the alternatives to two for each facility. One of those alternatives may be a no-build alternative. 3) The applicant will then submit an application for a conditional use permit with the following information for each alternative selected by the city council: a. the cost; b. the amount of vegetation that would be removed or damaged; c. for an electrical transmission line or substation, a summary of current research regarding the health effects of EMF levels, conducted by health and scientific professionals, including those who do and do not receive utility sponsorship; d. for an electrical transmission line or substation, EMF levels under maximum and average anticipated loading at the base of the utility poles, underneath the wires between the poles, at ground level above underground wires, at the edge of the property line, at the edge of the closest habitable building, and at the point above ground where there would be the greatest EMF level; e. for an electrical transmission line or substation, reasonable and prudent measures to minimize EMF levels along all alternative routes; and f. depictions of the views of the proposed facility, if above ground, from at least two directions selected by city staff. 4) All alternative routes for transmission lines must comply with the following unless the applicant shows that this is not reasonable or prudent: a. the routes must be on or along corridors presently used for public roads, public trails, railroads, or above-ground utilities, or on corridors which were previously used for such purposes and which are being retained for future public or utility purposes; b. arterial or collector streets must be used instead of local roadways, except that local roadways may be used where above-ground electrical lines already exist; and c. platted utility easements in residential zones which do not abut public roads or roadway easements may not be used, unless the lines are placed underground. 5) After receiving a complete application, the planning commission must hold a public hearing on the application. At least 10 days before this hearing, the city must mail notice of the hearing to all owners of property wholly or partially within a 400-foot radius of any portion of the alternative locations to be presented to the planning commission. 6) The planning commission will recommend a preferred alternative to the city council. The city council will select an alternative for each facility by a majority vote of the members present. The planning commission and council may impose reasonable conditions as part of the approval to protect adjacent property and people. 7) In making their decisions, the planning commission and city council must consider the following factors: a. the potential adverse aesthetic, economic, environmental, social, health, and safety impacts on adjacent properties or people; b. the potential interference with public use of public property; c. the applicant's need to adequately and reliably serve customers within the relevant service area now and in the foreseeable future; d. compliance with the requirements in subparagraph 4; e. cost; and f. the purposes in section 300.01 and the general standards in section 300.16, subd. 2 and section 300.21, subd. 2. 8) The applicant may notify the city and request selection of a different alternative after the council's action if the applicant believes that it cannot use the selected alternative because of a reason that was beyond its own control and not apparent during the selection process. The council will choose a different alternative if it finds that the applicant is prevented from the using the selected location. Phase II (Site Plan Review): 9) The applicant must apply for site plan approval after receiving the conditional use permit and before beginning construction. At the applicant’s request, the city council may choose to consider the site plan at the time of the conditional use permit. The application must comply with the conditions specified in paragraphs (9) through (13). The applicant must obtain sufficient interest in the property needed for that alternative before applying for the approval. The city planner must reject an application for a location other than the selected alternative, and it will not be considered. 10) The applicant must submit a landscape plan prepared by a registered landscape architect. The plan must be designed to mitigate the amount of trees removed for the facility and must minimize the visual impact on abutting properties caused by the facility. The landscape plan will be subject to review and approval by the city pursuant to section 300.27, subd. 14 through subd. 19 of this code, except the minimum landscape requirements in subd. 15(a). The applicant must submit financial security acceptable to the city to ensure compliance and must install and maintain the landscaping in compliance with those code provisions and the plan as approved by the city. With the concurrence of the abutting property owner, the landscape plan may include plantings on abutting property. In that case, the applicant will be responsible for installation, and the abutting property owner will be responsible for the maintenance of the landscaping. 11) The applicant must design the facility to minimize its visual impact. The applicant must submit configuration, material and color options that are technically feasible. The city may require the applicant to design the facility in a manner that reduces the visual impact 96 Item 4. of the project, including regulating the height and spacing of utility poles. Utility poles may not exceed 80 feet in height, except when needed to cross a major roadway such as a freeway. 12) The facility must not interfere with the use of public right-of-way, including use for vehicular and pedestrian travel, snow storage, and lateral support. 13) The applicant and any subsequent owner must continually maintain the facility in good condition, including repainting or restaining deteriorated surface finishes, securing poles and guy wires to the ground, and replacing poles that are in a deteriorated condition.

Published in The Life April 19, 2024 1388296 103 Item 4. 1 Andrew Boucher From:Donna Conwell <dsc01@comcast.net> Sent:Wednesday, April 24, 2024 11:09 AM To:Andrew Boucher Subject:Regarding Public Hearing Notice to Amend City Code 9.107 Related to Day Care Centers SUBJECT: Public Hearing Notice - Zoning Text Amendment from JDA Design Architects and Mohamed Abdulle proposing to amend City Code 9.107 Specific Development Standards related to Day Care Centers (Date of hearing May 7, 2024) To Whom It May Concern: I am writing in response to a notice of public hearing I recently received related to the subject cited above. The notice states the amendment relates to specific development standards for day care centers and would "allow for child day care centers to use an adjacent public park within 1,500 feet of the property in lieu of an on-site play area. While I am in full support of children and their right and need to play, I am do not support using public park space by day care centers, including private or public schools, for this purpose. These businesses should provide their own recreational facilities and equipment for use by the children they are paid to care for. Public parks are for the use of all residents and their individual children. To have access to recreational equipment (e.g., swings, slides, etc.) essentially obstructed by a day care center business for use by its customers is not an acceptable use of these public areas, facilities, and equipment. For the record, I have no objection to day care operated out of someone's individual home using a local public park for the benefit of the children in their care. Respectfully, Donna Conwell (Columbia Heights, MN, Labelle Park area resident) 104 Item 4. 1 Andrew Boucher From:Jennifer Kane <jekane32@gmail.com> Sent:Monday, April 22, 2024 11:28 AM To:Andrew Boucher Subject:Re: FW: Zoning Text Amendment Hi Andrew, QuesƟons I have: What degree of full park access will the daycare children have: will it be possible that the children approach fence lines in their play (and thereby potenƟally trigger unsupervised dogs in those back yards). I have a large dog. He is protec Ɵve of his yard and will charge and bark at unknown people who approach the backyard gate to my property. We have a Beware of Dog sign on the gate. What hours will daycare children be at play in the park. Will there be a predictable schedule that the daycare follows (that we can follow or be aware of also). Can property owners or community ciƟzens use the park at will (with dogs and children/grandchildren) while daycare children are there playing. Discussion of increase in discarded trash or forgoƩen clothing/toys if this moves ahead. A benefit of the proposal: this could result in the park maintenance schedule being aƩended to with more diligence. 1) the dandelions being sprayed; 2) the park being mowed regularly; 3) sƟcks and brush being raked and collected from the large sandbox area; 4) basketball hoops being repaired; and 5) the interior park fence lines being maintained and trimmed.

My question are as follows: Would the addition of these day care centers be a burden to what I can assume are limited crews for maintenance and trash removal? As I stated to you, I live directly across from Huset Park and the children and parents leave an enormous amount of trash daily which I pick up so I am not ashamed of where I live. Are there monies designated for daily clean up in these parks? How many people will be supervising the children daily? We have had buses of children at Huset Park who took over the entire play area and other children would just leave the area. Also how will our residents be able to walk dogs or want to have picnics on the grounds at the same time? Will our Association be paying higher taxes for the centers?

There are approximately 11 day care centers in Columbia Heights that this would apply to, but from my analysis, the vast majority of these day care centers already have on-site play areas or other built in ameniƟes.

PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA SECTION PUBLIC HEARINGS MEETING DATE MAY 7, 2024 ITEM: Minor Subdivision for 5085 Central Avenue NE DEPARTMENT: Community Development BY/DATE: Andrew Boucher, City Planner CASE NUMBER: 2024-0507 APPLICANT: Terron Wright of the Architects Partnership, LTD on behalf of Chase Bank DEVELOPMENT: Minor Subdivision of a portion of the parking lot of La Casita (5085 Central Avenue NE) to create a separate lot for a new construction Chase Bank with a drive-thru ATM. LOCATION: 5085 Central Avenue NE REQUEST: Minor Subdivision PREPARED BY: Andrew Boucher, City Planner INTRODUCTION: The Architects Partnership, LTD on behalf of Chase Bank and La Casita has requested approval of a Minor Subdivision proposing to split a portion of the La Casita parking lot into two separate parcels and in preparation of construction of a new 3,365 square foot banking facility with a drive-thru ATM on the proposed parcel located at 5085 Central Avenue NE (between 51st Ave/CT NE and Central Avenue NE). The applicant is proposing to subdivide the existing 1.67 acre parcel and remove 52 of the 135 parking spaces on-site to create two separate lots, the La Casita parcel would be 1.18 acres and the Chase Bank parcel (5075 Central Avenue) would be 0.48 acres. The subject site is located at the northern end of the municipal boundary along Central Avenue and the surrounding adjacent properties are all zoned for Commercial use through the General Business District; further to the south, east, and west of those commercial properties are pockets of multi-family, duplexes, and single-family residential zoning adjacent to Central Avenue. The subject site is zoned, General Business District, and the use as a financial institution with a drive-thru ATM is permitted use in the district subject to Specific Development Standards 9.107 (18) for a drive -up facility. The proposed subdivision would reduce the required parking for the restaurant to 83 parking spaces which is below the minimum requirements of 91 parking spaces for the restaurant, a deficit of 8 spaces . A total of 20 parking spaces are required for the financial institution, one (1) per 300 gross floor area and up to nine (9) employees at any one time; the applicant is proposing 14 parking spaces creating a combined deficit of 14 spaces. A shared parking agreement is a necessary condition of approval subject to approval by the City Attorney and filed with the Anoka County Recorder’s Office within 60 days after approval of the shared parking use to ensure that both uses have compliant parking. As conditioned, the proposed minor subdivision meets subdivision regulations in accordance with City Code. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 111 Item 5. Page 2 The City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan guides the subject site, as well as properties to the north, south , east and west for “commercial land use” with “medium density and low density residential” further to the south and east of the commercial parcels. The Plan describes the “commercial” designation as follows: The Commercial land use designation is primarily located along major transportation corridors and includes a variety of retail uses, services, and office uses. The subject site also lies within “Opportunity Area #2B” of the Comprehensive Plan which overlays the segment of the Central Avenue from 37th Avenue NE to the Fridley Border, specifically between Central Avenue NE and 49th Avenue NE. In this regard, the Plan identifies the area as having development potential for future commercial use. Some of the guiding principles for redevelopment include commercial uses with appropriate parking and pedestrian accesses to Central Avenue and emphasizing on businesses that provide goods or services that appeal to the community at large as well as the adjacent neighborhoods. This area is described as having an emphasis on providing sidewalks, four season landscaping, and lighting. MINOR SUBDIVISION ISSUES AND ANALYSIS Lot Requirements. According to Section 9.110(C) of the Zoning Ordinance, lots within the GB District must have a minimum lot area of 6,000 sq. ft. and a minimum lot width of 40 feet. Presently, the La Casita parcel (5085 Central Avenue) measures 72,834 sq. ft. with a width of 245 feet. As a result of the proposed minor subdivision, the La Casita would retain 51,834 sq. ft. (1.18 acres) and an additional lot would be created measuring 21,000 sq. ft. (.48 acres) and a width of 210 feet. Both proposed lots meet the minim um lot area and width requirements of the General Business (GB) District. Setbacks. The proposed minor subdivision will result in changes to the setbacks as La Casita had corner lot setback requirements which are now applicable to the proposed lot. The General Business district parking and structure setbacks are as follows: Parking Setbacks: Building Setbacks: Front: 15 feet Corner Side: 15 feet Rear: 5 feet Side: 5 feet Front: 15 feet Corner Side: 15 feet Rear: 20 feet Side: 0 feet The proposed minor subdivision configuration would result in the following setbacks for La Casita and Chase Bank, respectively: La Casita Parking Setbacks: La Casita Building Setbacks: Front: 15 feet Corner Side: N/A Rear: 5 feet Side: 5 feet Front: 48.7 feet Corner Side: N/A Rear: 81.2 feet Side: 84 feet and 9 feet Chase Bank Parking Setbacks: Chase Bank Building Setbacks: Front: 18 feet Corner Side: 15 feet Rear: 5 feet Side: 15 feet Front: 42 feet Corner Side: 15 feet Rear: 35 feet Side: 15 feet 112 Item 5. Page 3 Both parcels will have building and parking lot setbacks that conform with 9.110 Commercial Districts (C) Lot dimension, height, and bulk requirements. The lot area, setback, height and lot coverage proposed satisfy these requirements. Easements. Easements for drainage and utilities are required to be shown and cover any new drainage way or utility on the subject properties. No easements are being proposed to be vacated. As a condition of approval, the applicant is responsible for filing and record ing any proposed easement with Anoka County Recorder’s Office.

The City of Columbia Heights does not allow services to be tied into a manhole so the manhole in the southwest corner of the property is not an option for the sanitary service. • All utilities and storm water features serving the Development shall be privately owned and maintained. All utilities shall meet the City of Columbia Heights specifications for materials and installation. • Site/Civil work shall be inspected by the City Engineering Department (connection to existing utility system). 24-hour advance notice of an inspection is required. • Please provide material type for 2” water service. The City of Columbia Heights does not allow PVC as a material type in the ROW – water main must be DIP. • Is a 6” fire suppression required? Where will this be? • All stormwater best management practices (BMP’s) shall have designated drainage and utility easements recorded with the Plat or as a separate document at Anoka County. • Utility disconnects must be made at the main and inspected by the utility department. • Location of tree installations (landscape plan) and utility locations should be coordinated to maintain 10’ separation from all utilities. • Provide a set of as-built drawings meeting City requirements at the completion of site/civil construction in both hardcopy and electronic format. • Is the parking stall with the concrete wheel stop an adequate length? Will cars impede the drive lane? Would a sign for compact cars only be warranted? • Only 13 parking spaces were counted, if 9 employees will be at the site that leaves 4 public parking spaces. Is the acceptable / enough? • Please provide one full size and one 11x17 set of Revised Plans to the Engineering department for final approval.

PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA SECTION PUBLIC HEARINGS MEETING DATE MAY 7, 2024 ITEM: Site Plan Review for 5085 Central Avenue NE DEPARTMENT: Community Development BY/DATE: Andrew Boucher, City Planner CASE NUMBER: 2024-0508 APPLICANT: Terron Wright of the Architects Partnership, LTD on behalf of Chase Bank DEVELOPMENT: Site Plan Review of a newly platted parcel from a portion of the parking lot of La Casita (5085 Central Avenue NE) to create a separate lot and establish a new construction Chase Bank with a drive-thru ATM. LOCATION: 5085 Central Avenue NE REQUEST: Site Plan Review (contingent upon successful application of a Minor Subdivision) PREPARED BY: Andrew Boucher, City Planner INTRODUCTION: The Architects Partnership, LTD on behalf of Chase Bank and La Casita has requested approval of a Site Plan Review proposing to establish a new 3,365 square foot banking facility with a drive-thru ATM located at the newly created parcel from a portion of 5085 Central Avenue NE (between 51st Ave/CT NE and Central Avenue NE). The Site Plan Review will be contingent upon the successful application of a Minor Subdivision as a condition of approval since the subdivision will have to be approved by the City Council apart from the Site Plan Review, which only requires Planning Commission approval. The applicant is proposing to subdivide the existing 1.67 acre parcel and remove 52 of the 135 parking spaces on-site to create two separate lots, the La Casita parcel would be 1.18 acres and the Chase Bank parcel (5075 Central Avenue) would be 0.48 acres. The subject site is located at the northern end of the municipal boundary along Central Avenue and the surrounding adjacent properties are all zoned for Commercial use through the General Business District; further to the south, east, and west of those commercial properties are pockets of multi-family, duplexes, and single-family residential zoning adjacent to Central Avenue. The subject site is zoned, General Business District, and the use as a financial institution with a drive-thru ATM is permitted use in the district subject to Specific Development Standards 9.107 (18) for a drive-up facility. The proposed site plan demonstrates compliance with those standards as it is accessory to the financial institution use and served by a major collected or higher functional classification of roadway . The proposed subdivision and site plan would reduce the required parking for the restaurant to 83 parking spaces which is below the minimum requirements of 91 parking spaces for the restaurant, a deficit of 8 spaces. A total of 20 parking spaces are required for the financial institution, one (1) per 300 gross floor area and up to nine (9) employees at any one time; the applicant is proposing 14 parking spaces creating a combined deficit of 14 spaces. A shared parking agreement is a necessary condition of approval subject to approval by the City Attorney and filed with the Anoka County Recorder’s Office within 60 days after approval 137 Item 6. Page 2 of the shared parking use to ensure that both uses have compliant parking. As conditioned, the proposed minor subdivision and site plan shall accommodate vehicle access and stacking, performance standards, and subdivision regulations in accordance with City Code. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan guides the subject site, as well as properties to the north, south , east and west for “commercial land use” with “medium density and low density residential” further to the south and east of the commercial parcels. The Plan describes the “commercial” designation as follows: The Commercial land use designation is primarily located along major transportation corridors and includes a variety of retail uses, services, and office uses. The subject site also lies within “Opportunity Area #2B” of the Comprehensive Plan which overlays the segment of the Central Avenue from 37th Avenue NE to the Fridley Border, specifically between Central Avenue NE and 49th Avenue NE. In this regard, the Plan identifies the area as having development potential for future commercial use. Some of the guiding principles for redevelopment include commercial uses with appropriate parking and pedestrian accesses to Central Avenue and emphasizing on businesses that provide goods or services that appeal to the community at large as well as the adjacent neighborhoods. This area is described as having an emphasis on providing sidewalks, four season landscaping, and lighting. SITE PLAN REVIEW 1. Access Access to the site is proposed from the southeast via 51st Court NE, a 50-foot wide public right of way, and a 27.3 foot existing driveway with directional marking proposed splitting a 24 foot drive aisle between the properties and marking the eastern egress as Do Not Enter for one-way traffic. There is a recorded nonexclusive mutual easement appurtenant, no. 664049.0 for driveway purposes, both vehicular and pedestrian, over the property that will provide access to both parcels from 51 st Court NE. As a condition of approval, a cross access easement for vehicular movement is required to be filed and recorded to provide access perpetually for all current and future owners. As shown on the submitted site plan, a row of 90-degree off-street parking stalls are located in the western corner of the site, along Central Avenue NE. In this regard, access to such row of parking is provided via a 24 foot divided aisle between the La Casita and Chase Bank structures, with the remaining spots located on the eastern side of the property. 2. Off-Street Parking Supply Requirements. The submitted site plan illustrates a total of 1 4 off-street parking stalls. The Zoning Ordinance requires 1 space per 300 sq. ft., gross floor area plus 6 stacking spaces for the one drive-through lane. The Zoning Ordinance also specifies that that employee parking is only required when the parking requirements are based on employee counts, as such, the parking requirements for financial institutions are determined by gross floor area/stacking spaces and not employee counts. Use Ratio Required Parking Provided Parking 138 Item 6. Page 3 Stalls Restaurant (8,494 sq. ft.) 30% of building capacity 91 83 (-8) Financial Institution with a drive-through ATM (3,365 sq. ft.) 1 space per 300 gross square feet; plus six (6) stacking spaces 11 14 (+3) Total 102 spaces 97 spaces (-5) The proposed subdivision and site plan would reduce the amount of required parking for the restaurant to 83 parking spaces which is below the minimum requirements of 91 parking spaces for the restaurant, a deficit of eight (8) spaces. A total of 11 parking spaces are required for the financial institution, one (1) per 300 gross floor area; the applicant is proposing 14 parking spaces, a surplus of three (3) spaces creating a combined deficit of 5 spaces. Appropriately, two off-street parking spaces on the site has been designated as a disability stall (in accordance with the American Disability Act). A shared parking agreement and transportation management plan are necessary conditions of approval and shall be subject to approval by the City Attorney and filed with the Anoka County Recorder’s Office within 60 days after approval of the shared parking use to ensure that both uses have compliant parking. As conditioned, the proposed minor subdivision and site plan shall a ccommodate vehicle access and stacking, performance standards, and subdivision regulations in accordance with City Code. Dimensional Requirements. The proposed off-street parking stalls meet the minimum dimensional requirements of the Ordinance (9 feet in width and 20 feet in depth, 18 feet for stalls which abut curbs) and the provided 24 foot-wide drive aisle is the minimum width required by the Ordinance. Building and Parking Area Setbacks. Within GB zoning districts, the following parking area setbacks are imposed: Parking Setbacks: Building Setbacks: Front: 15 feet Corner Side: 15 feet Rear: 5 feet Side: 5 feet Front: 15 feet Corner Side: 15 feet Rear: 20 feet Side: 0 feet The proposed minor subdivision and site plan configuration would result in the following setbacks for La Casita and Chase Bank, respectively: La Casita Parking Setbacks: La Casita Building Setbacks: Front: 15 feet Corner Side: N/A Rear: 5 feet Side: 5 feet Front: 48.7 feet Corner Side: N/A Rear: 81.2 feet Side: 84 feet and 9 feet Chase Bank Parking Setbacks: Chase Bank Building Setbacks: 139 Item 6. Page 4 Front: 18 feet Corner Side: 15 feet Rear: 5 feet Side: 15 feet Front: 42 feet Corner Side: 15 feet Rear: 35 feet Side: 15 feet Both parcels will have building and parking lot setbacks that conform with 9.110 Commercial Districts (C) Lot dimension, height, and bulk requirements. The lot area, setback, height and lot coverage proposed satisfy these requirements. 3. Business Hours It is understood that the financial institution is proposing traditional business hours of operation, Monday through Friday from 9 AM – 6 PM and Saturday from 9AM – 2 PM, with a 24 hour drive-thru ATM. The operating hours are anticipated to have peak demands occurring opposite the peak demands of the restaurant. 4. Trash A trash enclosure is shown on the site plan on the eastern side of the property alongside a portion of the parking lot and in the architectural renderings as being 6 feet, 6 inches from the slab and surrounded by at least three sides with screening walls that are similar to the construction material used on the banking facility. The open side of the enclosure shall not face any public street or the front yard of any adjacent property. 5. Signage The applicant has not submitted drawings for on-site signage. Signs are required to have a building permit and are subject to review for compliance by City Staff. As a condition of approval, all signage shall be reviewed by the City for approval. 6. Fire Access The fire lane shall be marked with yellow curb paint and signage that states “No Parking – Fire Lane”. As a condition of approval, this will be required to remain. 7. Pedestrian and Bicycle Access The site has existing pedestrian access along the western side of the property in alignment with Central Ave, the applicant is proposing sidewalk from the edge of the right-of-way connection as well as crosswalk areas across the parking lot to connect the parking area to the buildin g and the City’s sidewalk system so pedestrians may access the site. It does not appear that the site provides access or parking of bicycles. The 2040 Comprehensive Plan land use goals state that sites should have pedestrian and bicycle access. Pedestrian access is satisfied, but the site should incorporate a bicycle parking area to satisfy this goal. Staff is recommending that a bicycle rack capable of accommodating four bicycles be a condition of approval. 8. Exterior Lighting The applicant has provided a lighting plan and specifications for the pr oposed lighting fixtures satisfying the requirements of 9.106 General Development Standards (K) and addresses potential security concerns from Public Safety. 9.
