CLAIR AVENUE Committee Members Present: Chairman Leonard W. Levine Councilman David Hozza Councilman Robert Sylvester Others Present• Council President Ruby Hunt Robert Piram, Director of Corrununity Services Bernard Edmonds, Director of Parks and Recreation-Ramsey County Michael Martin, Legislative Aide to Chairman Levine V. R. Rooney, representi.ng Byerly's Pierre Regnier, City Attorney Chairman Levine convened the meeting at 11:45 a, m. He stated the purpose of this meeting is the matter of the Ci.ty's consent signature on a petifion to rezone part of the Park Nursery site at 1200 St. Clair Avenue. Mr. V. R. Rooney, 4601 Excelsior Boulevard, 5t. Louis Park, said he is a land developer for properties for sale or lease for various types of organizations throughout the Midwest including 3 or 4 states, He wishes to make the presentation this morning for development of the Park Nursery site, The northerly boundary is St. Clair Avenue, the eastern boundary is the Short-Line Railroad property, the southerly boundary is Edgcumbe Road, and Griggs Street is the westerly boundary, They have a proposition to build a Byerly's 5upermarket on the land; he noted this store is the ulti.mate in supermarket development. This proposal would be putting the land to its best use. In addition to development of a store this is a tremendously-large piece of praperty, and is very expensive. They want to rezone and develop the northerly 10 acres for commercial use. They are willing and desirous to sell the southerly 5+ acres to Ramsey County for park development. He noted the comrriercial development is something that will be advantageous to the community and will put it on the tax rolls, whereas now the land is not even being taxed. It would also solve a problem the city may have in enlarging the playground near Griggs Street and the development of open space. They feel they can develop this area in an aesthetic manner and it would be mutually - beneficial to all the people concerned. He said he has gone to the people that live on Griggs and obtained their signatures. They feel they would be a good neighbor to these residents. They run a good shop, and they will be creating jobs both during construction and afterwards, which would be an asset to the community. Mr. Rooney presented a graph depicting the layout of the site. He explained the ingress and egress of traffic, noting the traffic would not be generated into the residential area. They feel this will make a beautiful buffer zone between the residenti.al area and the proposed open space land. c _2_ . Upon a question by Chairman Levine on the size of the store, Mr. Rooney said it would be between 50, 000-57, 000 square feet and wauld compare to the other Byerly stores in Southdale, Golden Valley, and the east side of St. Paul, They are all about the same size, but he emphasized that they are not stereotyped since each one is designed independently to fit the contours of the neighborhood. Councilman Hozza ques�.ioned the ground level entrance of the street in relation to Edgcumbe Road. Mr, Rooney said that if he rerr�embers the figures correctly, the elevaia.on will be 110 feet; at St. Clair Avenue it will be 105 feet, which will be 5 feet above, giving surface drainage. This is a ponding area between the entrance and would catch the drainage water and hold it back; there won't be any flash floods, etc, The exit is about a 2-foot difference in the grade level. Chairman Levine asked if the developer has had a chance to discuss his proposal with any of the neighbors directly affected. He mentioned a telephone message he just received from. Mrs. DeCourcy voicing her objection since she said the County has made an offer to Mr. Reed which hasn't been refused. She left the message since she couldn't personally attend the meeting, but wanted the Committee to know tha,t people in the area are opposed to this proposal. Chairman Levine noted that Mrs. Hunt also lives in this vicinity, Mr. Rooney said he had ta.ken a petition around to the people wit.hi.n the required legal distances of the area they propose to have rezoned. There are 12 people on the street (Griggs Street); 3 people did not sign it but the other 9 did. He noted the railroad people have signed it, along with the owner of the apartment building on Lexington Avenue whzch is across from the property. Chairman Levine asked if the building will show from Edgcumbe Road, according to the developer's site plan. Mr. Rooney said no, this would not be disturbed at all. No traffic would go through there; there will be traffic flow on Lexington Avenue and St. Clair Avenue. He reiterated that all the traffic in the residential area would be eliminated. With the park as a buffer area this will be a beautiful location. Mrs. Hunt said that because of the fact that the County has been talking of acquiring this for open space, she invited Bernie Edmonds to speak at this meeti.ng. Mr. Roon.ey said he wanted it in the record that the developer contacted all '�he people within the legal requirement and there were only 3 people that objected. He noted this was prior to the vacati.on of 5tanford Avenue. One � man objected because he felt the project would affect the water flow into the basement of his house. Robert Piram, Director of Community Services, gave a status report on what his department is trying to do there. (copy attached) , , _3_ Councilman Sylvester asked if the Committee is really asking the County to purchase the land. Mr. Piram said that yes, it is in their open space acquisition program with a high priority, Contrary to the telephone call Mr. Levine received from Mrs. DeCourcy, Mr. Piram said he doesn't think the County has made an offer on this property at this particular time. Bernard Edmonds, Director of Parks and Recreati.on for Ramsey County, pointed out that on the last page of Mx. Piram's letter, under #4, it does spell:o_ut.pretty,well the position of Ramsey County on this matter. This'enti.re site of 10 acres', which is basically the growing area, is - included in the Ramsey County open space program. It does have a high priority and an offer has been made to the own.er. They have not received a response as yet. He noted tha.t this proposal, which represents a compromise from the original idea of the County acquiring the entire 10-acre site, would then make it possible for there to be open space and a tax-producing use on the Park Nursery site. It has not been presented to the Ramsey County Board although it has been discussed with some individual Board members and will be presented to a comm�ttee of the Board this afternoon. It is expected tha.t if the coxnmittee concurs, there will be a presentation of this compromise proposal to the Ramsey County Board, possibly as early as Monday, January 13. Upon a question by Councilman Hozza, Mr. Edmonds sta�Eed the County's last offer was made 30-45 days ago. Chairman Levine asked if he is correct i.n understanding the developer would like to have the City sign fihi.s petition today in order for placement on the April 1 agenda. Mr. Rooney said they would like to have some sort of direction from the Committee so that they would know if they should continue. The April 1 deadline is the earliest they could get on the agenda in order to take care of the rezoning petition and the vacation of the street, along with the 20-day notification period, etc. He believes April 1 is a realistic date, Councilman Sylvester said several years ago the City Council took action which upzoned this land which raised the price for County open space proposals. Now we are considering taking that same step again, Unless the County has met with the developer and has some idea of the price and the fact that no action this body takes is going to raise that price, he said he would hesitate to go forward, He said this could put the County "under the gun" and the City shouldn'E be doing that. He said he wouZd be inclined to wait to see what happens at the County's committee meeting this afternoon on that matter. Following that the County Board could determine what resources they have and what inclinations there are. Councilman Hozza said that by signing the consent petition the procedure for the rezoning hearings could go on, and this would not necessarily mean the Ci.ty is approving or disapproving of the rezoning itself. t � _4_ , Pierre Regnier, City Attorney, quoted from a resolution passed by the Council in February, 1971: "whereas, it is the desire of the Council to have any petition for rezoning heard on its merits, now, therefore, be it resolved, that the head of the depart- � ment having control or jurisdiction of any City property is hereby authorized and directed to sign any and all petitions for rezoning on beha.lf of the City where such City property adjoins or abuts property which is the subject of a rezoning petition by its owner or owners". He said that is a resoluf3.on on the books and in effect the signing of a peta.ia.on for the pu:rpose of getting it before this body for the purpose of its determination on its own merits and not how this Council has interpreted this resoluti.on, Signing thi.s would not be giving Council approval of the rezoning; it would be merely getting the process started so that the hearings could begin. Councilman Hozza asked if the City Development Comrnittee has the power to recommend to the Council or to the department the signing of a consent petition. Mrs. Hunt said tha.t as a matter of clarificaia.on, the reason this matter was referred to this Corr►�rn;ttee was for the purpose of considering . whether the City should sign the consent petiti.on. She thinks it should be up to thi.s Committee to xnake a recommendation -- not necessarily in connecti.on with the approval or disapproval of the project, bu� in order to get the hearings started. Chairman Levi.ne said he feels thi.s xnatter is before this Commit�ee in order to get some feeling from the members. He praised the newspaper account of the meeti.ng notice since it listed the purpose of the meeting. He said this is the first he has seen of a proposal for the land. Councilman Sylvester said he would be happy to recomm.end that the City sign the petition if we knew the County agreed with this. The City would be taking steps toward spending the County's money, and he feels that almost as a courtesy the County should see this letter. Councilman Hozza moved th th City Deve pme � � nt Comxnittee go � on record agreeing to sign the consent peia.tion if there is favorable response � frorn the County Board, Councilman Sylvester said he agrees with that �� stipulation. � �-..�..�..�.,,,_.�....�.,_,......,,�,....�.�.� _,,.._._�.�.,.o...-----....�..�.....�, M...,..._...�..-.-•....� Mrs. Hu.nt said she wanted to ask the developer if the offer that was made to the County was the compromise one we heard today or if it was on the whole piece of property. Mr. Rooney said it was just on the 10 acres. Mrs. Hunt said it is now all the more important that the County respond to this, � _5_ She said the City and County should keep in mind that if any type of rezoning is done, it would be increasing the value of the property, since it would be going from residenti.al to con�snercial. If that should happen, it would be expected tha.t the County get some financial benefit on the piece of property that rexnains; that's part of the negotiation if they come up with a suitable proposal. Mr. Edmonds said he will make copies of the letter available in regard to the meeting this afternoon. Councilman Hozza said. his motion to go ahead and sian t.he consent petit�on-is made without bias and he would just like the procedure to move along. He stressed that he wants the County Board and the neighborhood residents to have their say. Ch'airman Levine said that was his understanding of fihe inotion; once we get a report back from the County this matter can be referred to the entire Council. He noted there is a motion on. the fl�or. Mr. Rooney said the County has made an offer to purchase the amount of 10 acres. The enti.re site actually consists of 16+ acres, which would leave a residual piece of property on the front. Their negotiafions are that they need 10 acres in order to make it economically feasible. The County would sti.11 be able to acquire 5-7 acres at a lesser cost than the appraised valuation that they received. He noted they are buying the en�ire 16 acres. Chairman Levine said that if there is no further discussion, there . will be a vote on t.he motion. Motion passed 3-0. Councilman Sylvestex moved adjournment at 12:20 p, m. - '�.� ,.� Leonard W.

Rooney and Peter Paulos to rezone property located at 1200 St. Clair Avenue, said petition was checked by this office and reported as insufficient to the City Council on November 19, 1974. The subject tract of land is bounded by 30 parcels of land within a 100-foot radius; the signatures of the owners of 20 parcels are necessary to provide the necessary two-thirds acquiescence to the rezoning. In this instance, 15 parcels of land are privately owned, of which 11 owners signed approval of the petition. The remaining 15 parcels of land are owned by the City of Saint Paul and are under the jurisdiction of the Department of Community Services, which did not sign said petition, thereby effectively pre- venting City Council consideration and approval of subject rezoning petition. It has been past policy, in situations where City-owned land was located within the 100-foot consent radius, for the Director or.Department Head, under whose jurisdiction said lands were designated, to sign the petition under City Council authorization, for the purpose of allowing subject petition to be presented to the City Council for consideration and/or approval in conformance with the Legislative Code. The Department signature is not indicative of approval of the proposed rezoning, but merely to allow the petition to be acted upon by the City Council. x I trust that the foregoing satisfactorily answers the question posed in your referral.
