THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAINT PAUL DOES ORDAIN: Section 1. Pursuant to Council Resolution No. 85-396 of March 19, 1985, the Saint Paul Planning Commission is preparing a plan for Sumnit Avenue from the Cathedral to the Mississippi River which will include guidelines for land use • and transportation, historic preservation, and urban design. The Planning Commission organized a Sumnit Avenue Planning Committee which has been meeting twice a month since May. The new plan is expected to contain zoning text and zoning policy recommendations designed to protect the neighborhood environments and historic architecture along Surr�nit Avenue. Section 2. This ordinance recognizes that the east end of Summit Avenue from Selby Avenue to Dale Street is within the Historic Hill District. Exterior changes in property within the Historic Hill District are subject to design review by the Heritage Preservation Corrrnission. This detailed level of regulatory control is the basis for distinctions between property located east of Dale and property located west of Dale.

GITY OF SAINT PAUL � �� 0 4� �� OFFICE OF THE MAYOR '' uii i i°i � . vo �o ,... 347 CITY HALL SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA 55102 GEORGE LATTMER (612) 298-4323 MAYOR October 24, 1985 Council President Tedesco and Members of the City Council Room 720 City Hall St. Paul , Minnesota 55102 Dear President Tedesco and Council Members: The Surrani t Avenue P1 anni ng' Corr�ni ttee has requested that a moratori um be pl aced on certain types of development activities along Summit Avenue while the corrgnittee and Planning Commission finalize their recommendations for City review and implementation. The corr�nittee is concerned that some undesirable developments may slip through before new regulations become effective (just as Milton Square and 0'Gara's Garage did without meeting the new commercial parking requirements that came into effect last February). The comnittee's interest in a moratorium was sparked at the end of July when a house was moved onto Sumnit Avenue at Griggs Street with only a 13-foot sideyard as its setback from Surr�nit Avenue. The proposed moratorium is detailed so that it can block undesirable developments while permitting most building projects, which are desirable, to proceed. A chart attached to the moratorium surranarizes which development activities are delayed by the language of the moratorium and which are not. Projects that are already going through City review processes, such as the executive retreat house at 266 Summit and the proposed William Mitchell parking lot, are not delayed by the moratorium as drafted. The moratorium is proposed to last for five months. The Planning Division staff informs me that the new Surr�nit Avenue Plan cannot be completed by the November 1 target date contained in the Council Resolution, primarily because of unforeseen staff changes that left the Planning Division spread thin. The staff now expects the plan to reach the City Council by next February 15. The proposed moratorium is attached. If you have any questions, please call Peggy Reichert (phone: -4509) or Larry Soderholm (-7494, ext. 325).
