Re: License ID m 199990005197
Dear Ms. Palmer:
a i -r��
Thank you for taking the time to speak with me today in reference to the notice of
violation sent to me.
It is appazent that we violated the law and sold cigarettes to a minor as provided
for by the City violations compliance check. I would, however, like to request that I be
given the opportunity to meet before the City Council to try to get any possible penalty
abated.
I understand that I am tardy in responding to your letter dated June 13, 2001. I
was unaware that I had the opportunity to subordinate the penalty.
Please advise me when I will be on the agenda. Thank you very much for your time
and indulgence.
Sincerely,

RE: CigarettelTobacco License held by Calvin's, Inc. d/b/a Vine Park Brewin� Company for
the premises located at 242 West 7` Street in Saint Paul
License ID #: 19990005197
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Of£ce ofLicense Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Calvin's, Inc. d!b/a Vine Park
Brewing Company for the premises located at 242 W. 7` Street in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as foliows:
On June 5, 2001, a tobacco compliance check was conducted at
the premises of Vine Park Brewery located at 242 West 7`
Street in Saint Paul. A fifteen year old female entered the store
and asked to buy cigarettes. She was not asked her age, nor
was she asked to show identification. The clerk sold her a
package of Camel Lights. Sale of tobacco to an underage
person is a violation of Minn. Stat. §609.85 and Saint Paul
Legisiative Code §324.07.
Since this is a first violation, the licensing office will recommend a$204.00 fine.
At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
If you do not dispute the above facts and do not wish to have a public hearing, you will
need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, you should
make payment directly to the Office of License, Inspections and Environmental
Page 2

Q� -r��
Protection, Room 300 Lowry Professional Building, 350 Saint Peter Street, Saint Paul,
Minnesota 55102. The letter should be directed to Ms. Christine Rozek. Payment of the
fine will be considered to be a waiver of the hearing to which you are entitled.
2. Altematively, if you do not dispute the above facts, but wish to have a public hearing
before the Saint Paul City Council, you will need to send me a letter with a statement
admitting the violation and requesting a public hearing. We will need to receive your
letter by Monday, June Z5, 2001. The matter will then be scheduled before the City
Council for a public hearing to determine what penalty, if any, to impose. You will have
an opportunity to appear before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
3. If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative
Law Judge. At that hearing both you and the City will be able to appear and present
witnesses, evidence and cross-examine the other's witnesses. The St. Paul City Council
will ultimately decide the case. If this is your choice, please advise my legal assistant,
Peter Pangborn, and we will take the necessary steps to schedule the administrative
hearing. He can be reached at 266-8710.
If we have not heard from you by Monday, June 25, 2001, we wiil assume that you
do not contest the facts and will schedule this matter for the St. Paul City Council and have
it placed on the Consent Agenda during which no public discussion is allowed and the
recommended penalty will be imposed.
Please be advised that the clerk who was identified as havin� made the sale on this date is
also being chazged an administrative penalty pursuant to 1Vlinn. Stat. §461.12, subd. 3. This is a
separate action from this license matter. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me
at (651) 266-8710.
Sincerely,

Association is supposed to detemune which of these zoning districts corresponds to the number of units
they need to develop in order for the Armstrong House move to be economically feasible at the level of
subsidy the HItA has already committed. The Zoning Committee of the Plamvng Comnussion heid a

E. Z011�ING CODE CITATION: Sec. 64,400(a) states in part, "the council may from time to time,
amend, supplement or change the distrid boundaries or the regulations herein, or subsequently
established herein pursuant to the provisions of Minnesota Statutes Section 462.357 .... The �
ptannina commission may from time to time, review district boundaries lines to determine if,
pursuazrt to staie laws, such district boundary lines should be changed.
Sec. 64.00(b) states in part that "an amendment to the zoniog code may be initiated by the council,
the pt annin� commission or by petition of the owners of sixty-seven (6� percent of the area of the
proper[y to be rezoned."
Sec. 60.714 describes the restrictions in the P-1 Pazking District, which is the current zoning on the
properry. Sec. 60.420 describes the pemutted uses in the RT-1 Dupleac zone. Sec. 60.430
describes the pennitted uses in the RT-2 Triplex/Fourple�dTownhouse zone. Sec. 60.440 describes
the pemutted uses in the RM-I Multifamily zone. As eacplained in findings 3, 4, and 5 below, this
applicat[on is unasual in that tluae petitions for three altemative proposed residential zoning
districts have been submitted simultaneously in order to eYpedite the moving of the Armsh
House.
F. HISTORY/DISCUSSION: For many years tlus pazcel was used as a pazking lot for Plastics,
Inc., wbich had an indusirial plant across Chestnut Street from the lot. Tn the 199$ the City bought
Plastics, Inc. as pazt of tfie redevelopmeirt site for the Minnesota Science Museum. Ail of ihe
Plastics, Tnc. properry east of Chestriut St. has been redeveloped. This parlang 1ot on the west side
of Chestnut St. is a leRover parcel. The pazking lot is now a nonconforming use inasmuch as the
pazl�ng is no longer accessory to a specific business. It is a commercially operated lot and, under
the Zouing Code, a principal use. In 1999 and 2000 the Saint Paul HRA worked with a developer
to build new multifamily housing and to move the Armstrong House to the site. However, the •
Irvine Pazk neighbors refused to sign a rezoning petition for the number of housing units proposed
(last proposal was for 12 units) and the proposat died.
Meauwhile, the Sairn Paul FIRA was also looldng for a workable site and redevelopment plan to
move the long-vacant, historic Amistrong House from Smith Ave. near Kellogg Blvd., thus
opening up a lazge site tbat is proposed to become the Smith Avenue Transit Hub at W. Seve�h
and Kellogg. The Historic Iivine Pazk Association (HIPA) tias long been nrterested in the fate of
the Am�strong House because of its proximity to theu neighborhood and hecause a couple of other
eir nei borhood.
When the idea azose that the Armstrong House could be moved to the Plastics parlang lot site with
the neighborhood in control of its redevelopment, the irnerests of the City and the neighborhood
converged. The City will be able to move the Atmstrong House and make way for the new transit
and will also ensure the redevelopmem of the Plastics lot. The Irvine Pazk neighborhood will be
able w save the Annstrong House and control the firture land use of the Plastics lot. This
redevelopmeirt package was apprwed by the City Council in a detailed a resolution approved on
4/25/OI (at[ached).
G. DISTRICT COiJNCIL RECOMMENDATION: The West Seventh Federation recommends
approval of rezoning the pazcel to a residential zoning district for the Arnistrong House move.
Furthermore, they aze actively participating in efforts to put together a feasible development
proposal for its restoration.

The meeting was chaired by Commissioner Kramer.
City of St. Paui HRA - 01-189-219 - Rezone from P-1 to R7-1, fiT-2 or RM-1 Residential for the
purpose of moving the historic Armstrong House to the site for restoration as housing.
Larry Soderholm showed a photo board depiciing the site from various angles and presented ihe
staff report. Mr. Soderholm explained that one of the neighborhood concerns is how the Armstrong
House will impact the views. Mr. Soderholm expiained the Historic Irvine Park Association wili
become the developer of the property and will select a co-developer to help with the renovations.
HRA will provide the funding to do much of the exterior work and the developers will decide how
� many units are necessary to have a feasib{e development and will do the interior finishing. The
Zoning Staff recommends Approval and the City Council endorsed the concept of moving the
house to Irvine Park and rezoning it for residential use in a resolution passed in April of 2001.
Commissioner Gordon said that he approved of the Armstrong house being saved and preseroed.
He asked how many units were allowed under the alternative zoning districts. Mr. Soderholm
expiained that the Armstrong House is designed as a double house, and it could stay that way or
it could be made into four, five or six units. Townhouses by definition have a front and back door,
and it woufd be impossible to redevelop the Armstrong house as townhouses for more than two
units. Mr. Soderhoim stated that the Zoning Staff recommends the rezoning move ahead with a
Planning Commission Resolution that supports any of the three rezonings, whichever the
developers choose before the City Council's public hearing on the case.
Atthe question of Commissioner Morton, Mr. Soderholm stated City Staff has a meeting scheduled
next week with the State Historic Preservation Office, HPC Representatives, and the neighborhood
to check on the progress of the devetopment ptan for the Armstrong tiouse.
Mr. Dan Smith, Project Manager with the Department of Planning and Economic Development,
appeared on behalf of the applicant and offered to answer questions.
Mr. Kev+n McGrath, Vice President of the Historic Irvine Park Association, reported that all the
neighbors who were within the 100-foot radius signed the zoning petition. He also explained that
they were in the process of finding a co-developer.
� At the question of Commissioner Gordon, Mr. McGrath stated the neighbors realize that the
Armstrong House will biock some views.
Upon the question of Commissioner Anfang, Mr. McGrath stated that architect Dick Faricy is
working with the City on the house move. The important factors are to get good views from

3. As planned, the Historic Irvine Park Association (HiPA) will become the
developer of the house and will seleci a co-developer to he{p them with the
renovation. The HRA wiil move the house, put it on a new foundation, and do
much of the exterior restoratian to make the house secure and weather tight, for
exampfe, window and door repairs, tuckpointing, new roof, and front porches.
Then the co-developers will take over and do the interior, utilities, parking, and
landscaping. HIPA is currently conducting their feasibifity analysis to determine
what number of housing units are necessary on the property to make the project
work financiaily. H1PA's goai is to construct the fewest number of units on the
property that will be feasible; the new, residential zoning on fhe property should
be to a corsespondingly restrictive residential zoning district.
4. On 4/25/01 the City Council approved this redevelopment strategy for the
Armstrong House at the Plastics parking fot and for the Sm+th Avenue Transit
Hub, which is a$30 million project north af the Xcel Arena, where the Armstrong
House current{y sits. Their action is laid out in Councii Resolution # 01-423. On
5/23/01 the NRA concurred in this strategy and named HIPA to be the
redeveloper of the Plastics lot.
5. Therefore, the City of Saint Paul, as current owner of the P{astics lot, has
submitted three alternative rezoning petitions for different residential densities--
RT-1 Dupiex; RT-2 Threep{e�Fourplex/Townhouse; and RM-1 Aparfinents. The
petitions are subject to an addendum that explains the proposed redevelopment
steps, as described in findings 2and 3 above. At the time of this Planning
Commission resolution, PED and HIPA do not know how many units will be
developed. They request the Planning Commission to recommend to the City
Council that any of the three zoning districts is satisfactocy. The addendum says
that H1PA wi11 decide which of the three zoning districts it wants at least ten days
before fhe City Council's public hearing on the rezoning. If HIPA does not
submit its preference, the petitioners will recommend RT-1 Quplex zoning. The
addendum has a further provision that if the Armstrong House cannot, fot some
reason, be moved to the site, the petitioners want the zoning to be raturned fo
P-1 Parking.

signed. The addendum was also signed by the same parties. The City and all
of the eligible, nearby homeowners signed the petition.
7. A residential rezoning of the parcei_is consistent with the Comprehensive Pfan.
Historic preservation is advocated in both the Land Use Chapter (Policy5.9.1)
and fhe Housing Chapter (Policy 4.2). The Housing Plan calfs for the production
of more housing units (Policy 5.1 j and design solutions that complement
existing neighborhoods (Policy 5.2). The Land Use Pian calls for development
on the fringes of downtown that create more inviting access to and from the
neighborhoods adjacent to downtown—the Plastics lot prominently overlooks the
new Science Museum Park (Policy 4.6.1).
In addifion, the redevefopment of the W. Seventh and Keilogg site as a
transportation center supports the downtown otFice and visitor sectors with
parking and supports the Riverview Transit Corridor and other bus lines with a
high quality station area. The proposed transportation center conforms to the
goals of the Transportation and Land Use chapters of the Comprehensive Plan.

8. Since the John M. Armsfrong House is listed on the fVationai Register of Historic �
Places, guidetines for the moving and restoration of the hause are speiled out in
detail in a Memorandum of Agreement among the Federa! Highway
Administration, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, the State Historic
Preservation Office, and the City. The Section 106 historic preservation
procedures are being followed. The Plastics lot is within the boundaries of the
local Historic Irvine Park Historic District, where deve(opmenf is reviewed by the
Saint Paul Heritage Preservation Commission.
but PED staff showed the Zoning
Committee drawings illustrating the house move concept. The o as am �'�""
width for the Armstrong House plus outbuilding(s), but is shallower than would
be ideai, depending on the size of the porches that will be added to the front and
maybe the rear. Depending on the final sifing of fhe strucfure, if is possible that
variances will be requested for front or rear setbacks and for height.
NOW, TNEREFORE, BE !T RESOLVED, that fhe Saint Paul Planning Commission
recommends to,the City Council that it approve, after receiving the preference of the
Historic Irvi�e Park Association in wrifing, any one of the three residential rezoning
petitions submitted by the City of Saint Paul for RT-1, RT-2, or RM-1 for the properEy
located at 235 Chestnut Streei (legally described as Lof 1, except fhe northwesterly
101.23 feet tF�ereof, and ail of Lots 9 and 10, Block 35, Rice and Irvine's Addition to

WNEREAS, the City of Saint Paul, File #01-189-219, has petitioned for a rezoning
under the provisions of §64.400 and §60.720 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code, from •
P-1 to a residential district--either RT-1, RT-2, or RM-1—for property (ocated at 235
Chestnut Street (commonly referred fo as the former Plastics, Inc. parking lot); and
WHEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission, on May 31, 2001, held
a public hearing at which ail persons present were given an opportunity to be heard
pursuant to said application in accordance with the requirernenfs of §64.300 of the ,
Saint Paul Legislative Code; and
WNEREAS, the Saint Pau! Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to
its Zoning Committee at the public hearing as substantially reflected in the minutes,
made the following findings of fact:
�
The parcel is 21,dOd square feet, with a potential addition of roughiy 4,000 �
square feet if the Hii! Street right-of-way is vacated. Hill Street cannot be built
because of the topography. The parcel is presently zoned P-1 and is an
unstriped parking lot for roughiy 60 cars. It was a parking lot for Plastics, Inc.
until the company was purchased by the City fo make way for the Science
Museum of Minnesota. The westerly edge of the parcel is a steep slope with
some retaining wails; the parking surface is about 14 feet below the level of the
yard of the historic Ohage House {the yellow brick house), which faces Irvine
Park. Alonq the site, Chestnut Street slopes down toward the river. The parking

2. The proposed use is to move the �istoric Armstrong House to the site and
restore it as residential units. To get a house moving permit from the City, the
Plastics lot must first be rezoned to a residential district. The Armstrong House
is a large structure with a footprint of approximately 3,500 square feet, a
potential finished floor area of 11,000 square feet on three floors, and a height of
45 feef fo the ridge (staff estimate). The house was originatly built as a side-by-

Addendum to Rezoning Petitions for 235 Chestnut St. and 0 Hill St.
Parties agreeing to addendum. This addendum to the rezoning petitions for 235 C`�1 ���
Chestnut Street and 0 Hill Street has been reviewed and agreed to by the foilowin�
parties: Saint Paul PED, Historic Irvine Park Association (HIPA), Kevin McGrath a
Molly Fernholz, Patrick and Rita Fiawkinso Warner, Dirk and Ruth Dantuma, Peter /��
Hilleren, Louis Fillmon and Kazen 7ason� �� �a�� �Je �.+nn . `�
!
2. Purpose. The parties want to accelerate rezoning of 235 Chestnut Street to pemut the
moving of the historic Armstrong House from ifs present location north of the Xcel Arena
to the site. The site's present zoning is P-1, which allows only surface parking. Before the
City can issue moving and foundation permits, the site needs to be zoned to permit
housing. The parties agree that the property on Chestnut Street should be rezoned
to allow the Armstrong House to be moved and that the new zoaing should be the
most restrictive residential zone in which the house can feasibly be restored and
� sold. The City wants to move the house as soon as possible to open up the site north of
the arena for redevelopment.
3. Simultaneous zoning steps and redevelopment anaiysis. HIPA is negotiating to take
ownership of the Armstrong House and to partner with a developer to restore and market
it. At the time of the filing of the rezoning petitions, HIPA has not had time to select a
partner, complete a project feasibility analysis, or determine how many residential units
wili be at the site. While HIPA is working with developers, pubiic agencies, and
contractors to devise a feasible restoration plan for the properry, the City and the property
owners within 100 feet of the Chestnut Street site are initiating three separate residential
rezoning petitions for RT-I (duplex), RT-2 (3-4 units), and RM-1 (multi-family) so that
any one of them can be chosen later.
The petitions will initiate the rezoning process at the Planning Commission; the parties
expect that all three alternatives may still be under consideration when the Planning
Commission holds its hearing and makes its recommendation. At least ten days before the
rezoning petitions come before the City Council for third reading and public hearing,
HIPA will have detemuned and submitted to the City in writing which of the three
alternative rezonings fits its restoration plan. The other two petitions will be withdrawn
by the parties. If HIPA has not made a written recommendation, the parties will
recommend that the Council approve the RT-1 rezoning alternative. As soon as practical
�
� �
after the Council approves a new zoning district, PED will request building permits for �
excauation, a new foundation, and the house move. In addition to the rezoning, other City
approvals will be required before building permits are issued, including height and setback
variances, site plan review, and tustoric review.
4. Nullification of the consents given on the rezoning petitions. Most of the petition
signers specifically support the moving and restoration of the Armstrong House, but
would not support whatever residential development may be permitted in the zoning
district without the house. If the Armstrong House is not moved to Chestnut Street or
suffers severe damage during the move and cannot be restored, the parties want to return
the zoning, at least for the time being, to P-1.
5. Attachment to rezoning petitions for RT-1, RT-2, and RM-1. This addendum is
hereby attached to each of the three rezoning petirions as an explanation for why multiple
petitions are being submitted and as a safeguazd for the affected neighbors.
6. Signatures of the Parties. I agree with the provisions of this addendum. (Please sign
and date.)

H. F7NDINGS:
. 1. The parcel is 21,000 square feet, with a potential addition of rougbly 4,000 square fezt if
the Hill Street right-of-way is vacated. Hill Sueet cannot be built because of the
fopography. The pazcel is presently mned P-1 and is an unsttiped pazking lot for roughly
60 cars. It was a pazldng lot for Plastics, Inc. u�il the company as purchased by the City
to make way for the Science Museum of Mmnesota. The westerly edge of the pazcel is a
steep slope with some retaining walls; the parlang surface is about 14 feet belaw the level
of the yard of the historic Ot�age House (the yellow brick house), wkrich faces Irvine Pazk.
Along the site, Chesmut Street slopes down toward the river. The pazldng lot has been
graded as a terrace that reduces the angle of the slopes.
2. The proposed use is to move the Iristoric Amistrong House to the site and restore it as
residential units. To get a house moving pemrit from the City, the Plastics lot must first be
rezoned to a residential district. The Annstrong House is a lazge structure with a footprim
of approxunately 3,500 square feet, a potemial finished floor area of 11,000 squaze feet on
iluee floors, and a height of 45 feet to the ridge (staff eslunate). The house was originally
built as a side by-side double house. It was later used as a nursing home, but much of the
original floor plan was kept.
3. As planned, the Historic Irvine Pazk Assoeiation (H�A) will become the developer of the
house and will select a co-developer to help them with the renovation. The HRA will move
the house, put it on a new foundation, and do much of the e�cterior restoration to make the
house secure and weather tight, for e�cample, repair windows and doors, tuckpointing, new
roof, and porches. Then the co-developers will take over and do the interior, utilities,
. pazldug, and landscaping. HIPA is currently conducting their feasibility analysis to
detemtine wl�at number of housing units aze necessary on the property to make the project
work financially. HIPA's goal is to consmict the fewest number of units on the properry
that will be feasible; tlris rezoning of the property to will be to a correspondingly
restrictive residential zoning district.
4. On 4/25/Ol the City Council approved Uvs redevelopment strategy for the Armstrong
House at the Plastics pazlang lot and the Smith Avenue Transit Hub. Their action is laid
out in Council Resolution # O 1-423 (attached). On 5123lO1 the HRA concuned in this
strategy and named HIPA to be the redeveloper of the site.
5. Therefore, the Ci1y of Saint Paul, as current owner of the Plastics lot, has submitted three
akernative rezo nina petitions for different resideirtial densities—RT-1 Duplex, RT-2
Threeple�c(Fourplex/Townhouse, and RM-1 Apartmerns. The petitions aze snbject to an
addendum that explains the proposed redevelopment steps, as described in findings 2 and 3
above. At the time of the Planniug Comnvssion's action, PED and HIPA do not expect to
lmow how many units will be developed. They request the Planniug Commission to
recommend to the City Council that any of the three zoning districts is satisfactory. The
addendum says that HIPA will decide which of the three mning districts it wants at least
ten days before the Ciry CounciPs public hearing on the rezoning. If HIPA does not
submit its preference, the petitioners will recommend RT-1 Duplex zoning. The addendum
has a furdier provision that if the Armstrong House cannot, for some reason, be moved to
the site, the petitioners want the zoning to be retumed to P-1 Pazldng.
�
l°1
6. The tluee rezoning petitions are sufficient The pekitions were received on 5/1/Ol. 13
pazcels were efigible to sign the petition, 9 pazcels were needed, 10 sigaed. The addendum
was atso signed by tt�e same parties. The Ciry and all of the eligible, nearby homeowners .
signed the petition.
A residentia] rezoning of the pazcel is consisteut with the Cotnprehensive Plan. Historic
preservation is advocated in both the Land Use Chapter (Policy 5.9.1) and the Housing
Chapter (Poliey 4.2). The Housing Plan calls for the production of more housing units
(Policy 5.1) and design solutions that complement existing neighhorhoods (Policy 52).
The Land Use Plan calls for developmern on the fringes of downtown that create more
inviting access to and from the neighborhoods adjacent to dow�own the Plastics lot
prominently overlooks the new Science Museuru Park (Policy 4.6.1).
In addition, the redevelopmem of the W. Seventh and Kellogg site as a transportation
center supports the downtown office and visitor sectors with pazking and supports the
Riverview Transit Corridor and other bus lines with a lrigh qualiiy station azea. These aze
also goals of the Transportation and Land Use chapter of the Comprehensive Plan.
8. Since the John M. Amu�trong House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Guidelines for the moving and restoration of the house are spelled out in detail in a
Memorandum of Agreement among the Federal Highway Administration, the Advisory
Council on Historic Preservation, the State Historic Preservation Office, and the City. The
Section 1061ristoric preservation procedures aze being followed. The Plastics lot is wiflrin
the boundaries of the local Historic Irvine Pazk Historic District, where development is
reviewed by the Saim Paul Heritage Preservation Commission.
9. No site plan has been submitted, but PED staff have previously made drawings to •
itlustrate the house move concept. The lot has ample width for the Armstrong House plus
outbuilding(s), but is shallower than would be ideal, depending on the size of the porches
that will be added to the from and rear. It is possible that variances wi11 be needed for

Thank you for taking the time to speak with me today in reference to the notice of
violation sent to me.
It is appazent that we violated the law and sold cigarettes to a minor as provided
for by the City violations compliance check. I would, however, like to request that I be
given the opportunity to meet before the City Council to try to get any possible penalty
abated.
I understand that I am tardy in responding to your letter dated June 13, 2001. I
was unaware that I had the opportunity to subordinate the penalty.
Please advise me when I will be on the agenda. Thank you very much for your time
and indulgence.
Sincerely,
(��� (A�.

Saint Paul, Minnesota 55102
RE: CigarettelTobacco License held by Calvin's, Inc. d/b/a Vine Park Brewin� Company for
the premises located at 242 West 7` Street in Saint Paul
License ID #: 19990005197
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Of£ce ofLicense Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Calvin's, Inc. d!b/a Vine Park
Brewing Company for the premises located at 242 W. 7` Street in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as foliows:
On June 5, 2001, a tobacco compliance check was conducted at
the premises of Vine Park Brewery located at 242 West 7`
Street in Saint Paul. A fifteen year old female entered the store
and asked to buy cigarettes. She was not asked her age, nor
was she asked to show identification. The clerk sold her a
package of Camel Lights. Sale of tobacco to an underage
person is a violation of Minn. Stat. §609.85 and Saint Paul
Legisiative Code §324.07.
Since this is a first violation, the licensing office will recommend a$204.00 fine.
At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
If you do not dispute the above facts and do not wish to have a public hearing, you will
need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, you should
make payment directly to the Office of License, Inspections and Environmental

Q� -r��
Protection, Room 300 Lowry Professional Building, 350 Saint Peter Street, Saint Paul,
Minnesota 55102. The letter should be directed to Ms. Christine Rozek. Payment of the
fine will be considered to be a waiver of the hearing to which you are entitled.
2. Altematively, if you do not dispute the above facts, but wish to have a public hearing
before the Saint Paul City Council, you will need to send me a letter with a statement
admitting the violation and requesting a public hearing. We will need to receive your
letter by Monday, June Z5, 2001. The matter will then be scheduled before the City
Council for a public hearing to determine what penalty, if any, to impose. You will have
an opportunity to appear before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
3. If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative
Law Judge. At that hearing both you and the City will be able to appear and present
witnesses, evidence and cross-examine the other's witnesses. The St. Paul City Council
will ultimately decide the case. If this is your choice, please advise my legal assistant,
Peter Pangborn, and we will take the necessary steps to schedule the administrative
hearing. He can be reached at 266-8710.
If we have not heard from you by Monday, June 25, 2001, we wiil assume that you
do not contest the facts and will schedule this matter for the St. Paul City Council and have
it placed on the Consent Agenda during which no public discussion is allowed and the
recommended penalty will be imposed.
Please be advised that the clerk who was identified as havin� made the sale on this date is
also being chazged an administrative penalty pursuant to 1Vlinn. Stat. §461.12, subd. 3. This is a
separate action from this license matter. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me
at (651) 266-8710.
Sincerely,

Association is supposed to detemune which of these zoning districts corresponds to the number of units
they need to develop in order for the Armstrong House move to be economically feasible at the level of
subsidy the HItA has already committed. The Zoning Committee of the Plamvng Comnussion heid a

E. Z011�ING CODE CITATION: Sec. 64,400(a) states in part, "the council may from time to time,
amend, supplement or change the distrid boundaries or the regulations herein, or subsequently
established herein pursuant to the provisions of Minnesota Statutes Section 462.357 .... The �
ptannina commission may from time to time, review district boundaries lines to determine if,
pursuazrt to staie laws, such district boundary lines should be changed.
Sec. 64.00(b) states in part that "an amendment to the zoniog code may be initiated by the council,
the pt annin� commission or by petition of the owners of sixty-seven (6� percent of the area of the
proper[y to be rezoned."
Sec. 60.714 describes the restrictions in the P-1 Pazking District, which is the current zoning on the
properry. Sec. 60.420 describes the pemutted uses in the RT-1 Dupleac zone. Sec. 60.430
describes the pennitted uses in the RT-2 Triplex/Fourple�dTownhouse zone. Sec. 60.440 describes
the pemutted uses in the RM-I Multifamily zone. As eacplained in findings 3, 4, and 5 below, this
applicat[on is unasual in that tluae petitions for three altemative proposed residential zoning
districts have been submitted simultaneously in order to eYpedite the moving of the Armsh
House.
F. HISTORY/DISCUSSION: For many years tlus pazcel was used as a pazking lot for Plastics,
Inc., wbich had an indusirial plant across Chestnut Street from the lot. Tn the 199$ the City bought
Plastics, Inc. as pazt of tfie redevelopmeirt site for the Minnesota Science Museum. Ail of ihe
Plastics, Tnc. properry east of Chestriut St. has been redeveloped. This parlang 1ot on the west side
of Chestnut St. is a leRover parcel. The pazking lot is now a nonconforming use inasmuch as the
pazl�ng is no longer accessory to a specific business. It is a commercially operated lot and, under
the Zouing Code, a principal use. In 1999 and 2000 the Saint Paul HRA worked with a developer
to build new multifamily housing and to move the Armstrong House to the site. However, the •
Irvine Pazk neighbors refused to sign a rezoning petition for the number of housing units proposed
(last proposal was for 12 units) and the proposat died.
Meauwhile, the Sairn Paul FIRA was also looldng for a workable site and redevelopment plan to
move the long-vacant, historic Amistrong House from Smith Ave. near Kellogg Blvd., thus
opening up a lazge site tbat is proposed to become the Smith Avenue Transit Hub at W. Seve�h
and Kellogg. The Historic Iivine Pazk Association (HIPA) tias long been nrterested in the fate of
the Am�strong House because of its proximity to theu neighborhood and hecause a couple of other
eir nei borhood.
When the idea azose that the Armstrong House could be moved to the Plastics parlang lot site with
the neighborhood in control of its redevelopment, the irnerests of the City and the neighborhood
converged. The City will be able to move the Atmstrong House and make way for the new transit
and will also ensure the redevelopmem of the Plastics lot. The Irvine Pazk neighborhood will be
able w save the Annstrong House and control the firture land use of the Plastics lot. This
redevelopmeirt package was apprwed by the City Council in a detailed a resolution approved on
4/25/OI (at[ached).
G. DISTRICT COiJNCIL RECOMMENDATION: The West Seventh Federation recommends
approval of rezoning the pazcel to a residential zoning district for the Arnistrong House move.
Furthermore, they aze actively participating in efforts to put together a feasible development
proposal for its restoration.

The meeting was chaired by Commissioner Kramer.
City of St. Paui HRA - 01-189-219 - Rezone from P-1 to R7-1, fiT-2 or RM-1 Residential for the
purpose of moving the historic Armstrong House to the site for restoration as housing.
Larry Soderholm showed a photo board depiciing the site from various angles and presented ihe
staff report. Mr. Soderholm explained that one of the neighborhood concerns is how the Armstrong
House will impact the views. Mr. Soderholm expiained the Historic Irvine Park Association wili
become the developer of the property and will select a co-developer to help with the renovations.
HRA will provide the funding to do much of the exterior work and the developers will decide how
� many units are necessary to have a feasib{e development and will do the interior finishing. The
Zoning Staff recommends Approval and the City Council endorsed the concept of moving the
house to Irvine Park and rezoning it for residential use in a resolution passed in April of 2001.
Commissioner Gordon said that he approved of the Armstrong house being saved and preseroed.
He asked how many units were allowed under the alternative zoning districts. Mr. Soderholm
expiained that the Armstrong House is designed as a double house, and it could stay that way or
it could be made into four, five or six units. Townhouses by definition have a front and back door,
and it woufd be impossible to redevelop the Armstrong house as townhouses for more than two
units. Mr. Soderhoim stated that the Zoning Staff recommends the rezoning move ahead with a
Planning Commission Resolution that supports any of the three rezonings, whichever the
developers choose before the City Council's public hearing on the case.
Atthe question of Commissioner Morton, Mr. Soderholm stated City Staff has a meeting scheduled
next week with the State Historic Preservation Office, HPC Representatives, and the neighborhood
to check on the progress of the devetopment ptan for the Armstrong tiouse.
Mr. Dan Smith, Project Manager with the Department of Planning and Economic Development,
appeared on behalf of the applicant and offered to answer questions.
Mr. Kev+n McGrath, Vice President of the Historic Irvine Park Association, reported that all the
neighbors who were within the 100-foot radius signed the zoning petition. He also explained that
they were in the process of finding a co-developer.
� At the question of Commissioner Gordon, Mr. McGrath stated the neighbors realize that the
Armstrong House will biock some views.
Upon the question of Commissioner Anfang, Mr. McGrath stated that architect Dick Faricy is
working with the City on the house move. The important factors are to get good views from

3. As planned, the Historic Irvine Park Association (HiPA) will become the
developer of the house and will seleci a co-developer to he{p them with the
renovation. The HRA wiil move the house, put it on a new foundation, and do
much of the exterior restoratian to make the house secure and weather tight, for
exampfe, window and door repairs, tuckpointing, new roof, and front porches.
Then the co-developers will take over and do the interior, utilities, parking, and
landscaping. HIPA is currently conducting their feasibifity analysis to determine
what number of housing units are necessary on the property to make the project
work financiaily. H1PA's goai is to construct the fewest number of units on the
property that will be feasible; the new, residential zoning on fhe property should
be to a corsespondingly restrictive residential zoning district.
4. On 4/25/01 the City Council approved this redevelopment strategy for the
Armstrong House at the Plastics parking fot and for the Sm+th Avenue Transit
Hub, which is a$30 million project north af the Xcel Arena, where the Armstrong
House current{y sits. Their action is laid out in Councii Resolution # 01-423. On
5/23/01 the NRA concurred in this strategy and named HIPA to be the
redeveloper of the Plastics lot.
5. Therefore, the City of Saint Paul, as current owner of the P{astics lot, has
submitted three alternative rezoning petitions for different residential densities--
RT-1 Dupiex; RT-2 Threep{e�Fourplex/Townhouse; and RM-1 Aparfinents. The
petitions are subject to an addendum that explains the proposed redevelopment
steps, as described in findings 2and 3 above. At the time of this Planning
Commission resolution, PED and HIPA do not know how many units will be
developed. They request the Planning Commission to recommend to the City
Council that any of the three zoning districts is satisfactocy. The addendum says
that H1PA wi11 decide which of the three zoning districts it wants at least ten days
before fhe City Council's public hearing on the rezoning. If HIPA does not
submit its preference, the petitioners will recommend RT-1 Quplex zoning. The
addendum has a further provision that if the Armstrong House cannot, fot some
reason, be moved to the site, the petitioners want the zoning to be raturned fo
P-1 Parking.

signed. The addendum was also signed by the same parties. The City and all
of the eligible, nearby homeowners signed the petition.
7. A residential rezoning of the parcei_is consistent with the Comprehensive Pfan.
Historic preservation is advocated in both the Land Use Chapter (Policy5.9.1)
and fhe Housing Chapter (Policy 4.2). The Housing Plan calfs for the production
of more housing units (Policy 5.1 j and design solutions that complement
existing neighborhoods (Policy 5.2). The Land Use Pian calls for development
on the fringes of downtown that create more inviting access to and from the
neighborhoods adjacent to downtown—the Plastics lot prominently overlooks the
new Science Museum Park (Policy 4.6.1).
In addifion, the redevefopment of the W. Seventh and Keilogg site as a
transportation center supports the downtown otFice and visitor sectors with
parking and supports the Riverview Transit Corridor and other bus lines with a
high quality station area. The proposed transportation center conforms to the
goals of the Transportation and Land Use chapters of the Comprehensive Plan.

8. Since the John M. Armsfrong House is listed on the fVationai Register of Historic �
Places, guidetines for the moving and restoration of the hause are speiled out in
detail in a Memorandum of Agreement among the Federa! Highway
Administration, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, the State Historic
Preservation Office, and the City. The Section 106 historic preservation
procedures are being followed. The Plastics lot is within the boundaries of the
local Historic Irvine Park Historic District, where deve(opmenf is reviewed by the
Saint Paul Heritage Preservation Commission.
but PED staff showed the Zoning
Committee drawings illustrating the house move concept. The o as am �'�""
width for the Armstrong House plus outbuilding(s), but is shallower than would
be ideai, depending on the size of the porches that will be added to the front and
maybe the rear. Depending on the final sifing of fhe strucfure, if is possible that
variances will be requested for front or rear setbacks and for height.
NOW, TNEREFORE, BE !T RESOLVED, that fhe Saint Paul Planning Commission
recommends to,the City Council that it approve, after receiving the preference of the
Historic Irvi�e Park Association in wrifing, any one of the three residential rezoning
petitions submitted by the City of Saint Paul for RT-1, RT-2, or RM-1 for the properEy

WNEREAS, the City of Saint Paul, File #01-189-219, has petitioned for a rezoning
under the provisions of §64.400 and §60.720 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code, from •
P-1 to a residential district--either RT-1, RT-2, or RM-1—for property (ocated at 235
Chestnut Street (commonly referred fo as the former Plastics, Inc. parking lot); and
WHEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission, on May 31, 2001, held
a public hearing at which ail persons present were given an opportunity to be heard
pursuant to said application in accordance with the requirernenfs of §64.300 of the ,
Saint Paul Legislative Code; and
WNEREAS, the Saint Pau! Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to
its Zoning Committee at the public hearing as substantially reflected in the minutes,
made the following findings of fact:
�
The parcel is 21,dOd square feet, with a potential addition of roughiy 4,000 �
square feet if the Hii! Street right-of-way is vacated. Hill Street cannot be built
because of the topography. The parcel is presently zoned P-1 and is an
unstriped parking lot for roughiy 60 cars. It was a parking lot for Plastics, Inc.
until the company was purchased by the City fo make way for the Science
Museum of Minnesota. The westerly edge of the parcel is a steep slope with
some retaining wails; the parking surface is about 14 feet below the level of the
yard of the historic Ohage House {the yellow brick house), which faces Irvine
Park. Alonq the site, Chestnut Street slopes down toward the river. The parking

restore it as residential units. To get a house moving permit from the City, the
Plastics lot must first be rezoned to a residential district. The Armstrong House
is a large structure with a footprint of approximately 3,500 square feet, a
potential finished floor area of 11,000 square feet on three floors, and a height of

2. Purpose. The parties want to accelerate rezoning of 235 Chestnut Street to pemut the
moving of the historic Armstrong House from ifs present location north of the Xcel Arena
to the site. The site's present zoning is P-1, which allows only surface parking. Before the
City can issue moving and foundation permits, the site needs to be zoned to permit
housing. The parties agree that the property on Chestnut Street should be rezoned
to allow the Armstrong House to be moved and that the new zoaing should be the
most restrictive residential zone in which the house can feasibly be restored and
� sold. The City wants to move the house as soon as possible to open up the site north of
the arena for redevelopment.
3. Simultaneous zoning steps and redevelopment anaiysis. HIPA is negotiating to take
ownership of the Armstrong House and to partner with a developer to restore and market
it. At the time of the filing of the rezoning petitions, HIPA has not had time to select a
partner, complete a project feasibility analysis, or determine how many residential units
wili be at the site. While HIPA is working with developers, pubiic agencies, and
contractors to devise a feasible restoration plan for the properry, the City and the property
owners within 100 feet of the Chestnut Street site are initiating three separate residential
rezoning petitions for RT-I (duplex), RT-2 (3-4 units), and RM-1 (multi-family) so that
any one of them can be chosen later.
The petitions will initiate the rezoning process at the Planning Commission; the parties
expect that all three alternatives may still be under consideration when the Planning
Commission holds its hearing and makes its recommendation. At least ten days before the
rezoning petitions come before the City Council for third reading and public hearing,
HIPA will have detemuned and submitted to the City in writing which of the three
alternative rezonings fits its restoration plan. The other two petitions will be withdrawn
by the parties. If HIPA has not made a written recommendation, the parties will
recommend that the Council approve the RT-1 rezoning alternative. As soon as practical
�
� �
after the Council approves a new zoning district, PED will request building permits for �
excauation, a new foundation, and the house move. In addition to the rezoning, other City
approvals will be required before building permits are issued, including height and setback
variances, site plan review, and tustoric review.
4. Nullification of the consents given on the rezoning petitions. Most of the petition
signers specifically support the moving and restoration of the Armstrong House, but
would not support whatever residential development may be permitted in the zoning
district without the house. If the Armstrong House is not moved to Chestnut Street or
suffers severe damage during the move and cannot be restored, the parties want to return
the zoning, at least for the time being, to P-1.
5. Attachment to rezoning petitions for RT-1, RT-2, and RM-1. This addendum is
hereby attached to each of the three rezoning petirions as an explanation for why multiple
petitions are being submitted and as a safeguazd for the affected neighbors.
6. Signatures of the Parties. I agree with the provisions of this addendum. (Please sign
and date.)

H. F7NDINGS:
. 1. The parcel is 21,000 square feet, with a potential addition of rougbly 4,000 square fezt if
the Hill Street right-of-way is vacated. Hill Sueet cannot be built because of the
fopography. The pazcel is presently mned P-1 and is an unsttiped pazking lot for roughly
60 cars. It was a pazldng lot for Plastics, Inc. u�il the company as purchased by the City
to make way for the Science Museum of Mmnesota. The westerly edge of the pazcel is a
steep slope with some retaining walls; the parlang surface is about 14 feet belaw the level
of the yard of the historic Ot�age House (the yellow brick house), wkrich faces Irvine Pazk.
Along the site, Chesmut Street slopes down toward the river. The pazldng lot has been
graded as a terrace that reduces the angle of the slopes.
2. The proposed use is to move the Iristoric Amistrong House to the site and restore it as
residential units. To get a house moving pemrit from the City, the Plastics lot must first be
rezoned to a residential district. The Annstrong House is a lazge structure with a footprim
of approxunately 3,500 square feet, a potemial finished floor area of 11,000 squaze feet on
iluee floors, and a height of 45 feet to the ridge (staff eslunate). The house was originally
built as a side by-side double house. It was later used as a nursing home, but much of the
original floor plan was kept.
3. As planned, the Historic Irvine Pazk Assoeiation (H�A) will become the developer of the
house and will select a co-developer to help them with the renovation. The HRA will move
the house, put it on a new foundation, and do much of the e�cterior restoration to make the
house secure and weather tight, for e�cample, repair windows and doors, tuckpointing, new
roof, and porches. Then the co-developers will take over and do the interior, utilities,
. pazldug, and landscaping. HIPA is currently conducting their feasibility analysis to
detemtine wl�at number of housing units aze necessary on the property to make the project
work financially. HIPA's goal is to consmict the fewest number of units on the properry
that will be feasible; tlris rezoning of the property to will be to a correspondingly
restrictive residential zoning district.
4. On 4/25/Ol the City Council approved Uvs redevelopment strategy for the Armstrong
House at the Plastics pazlang lot and the Smith Avenue Transit Hub. Their action is laid
out in Council Resolution # O 1-423 (attached). On 5123lO1 the HRA concuned in this
strategy and named HIPA to be the redeveloper of the site.
5. Therefore, the Ci1y of Saint Paul, as current owner of the Plastics lot, has submitted three
akernative rezo nina petitions for different resideirtial densities—RT-1 Duplex, RT-2
Threeple�c(Fourplex/Townhouse, and RM-1 Apartmerns. The petitions aze snbject to an
addendum that explains the proposed redevelopment steps, as described in findings 2 and 3
above. At the time of the Planniug Comnvssion's action, PED and HIPA do not expect to
lmow how many units will be developed. They request the Planniug Commission to
recommend to the City Council that any of the three zoning districts is satisfactory. The
addendum says that HIPA will decide which of the three mning districts it wants at least
ten days before the Ciry CounciPs public hearing on the rezoning. If HIPA does not
submit its preference, the petitioners will recommend RT-1 Duplex zoning. The addendum
has a furdier provision that if the Armstrong House cannot, for some reason, be moved to
the site, the petitioners want the zoning to be retumed to P-1 Pazldng.
�
l°1
6. The tluee rezoning petitions are sufficient The pekitions were received on 5/1/Ol. 13
pazcels were efigible to sign the petition, 9 pazcels were needed, 10 sigaed. The addendum
was atso signed by tt�e same parties. The Ciry and all of the eligible, nearby homeowners .
signed the petition.
A residentia] rezoning of the pazcel is consisteut with the Cotnprehensive Plan. Historic
preservation is advocated in both the Land Use Chapter (Policy 5.9.1) and the Housing
Chapter (Poliey 4.2). The Housing Plan calls for the production of more housing units
(Policy 5.1) and design solutions that complement existing neighhorhoods (Policy 52).
The Land Use Plan calls for developmern on the fringes of downtown that create more
inviting access to and from the neighborhoods adjacent to dow�own the Plastics lot
prominently overlooks the new Science Museuru Park (Policy 4.6.1).
In addition, the redevelopmem of the W. Seventh and Kellogg site as a transportation
center supports the downtown office and visitor sectors with pazking and supports the
Riverview Transit Corridor and other bus lines with a lrigh qualiiy station azea. These aze
also goals of the Transportation and Land Use chapter of the Comprehensive Plan.
8. Since the John M. Amu�trong House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Guidelines for the moving and restoration of the house are spelled out in detail in a
Memorandum of Agreement among the Federal Highway Administration, the Advisory
Council on Historic Preservation, the State Historic Preservation Office, and the City. The
Section 1061ristoric preservation procedures aze being followed. The Plastics lot is wiflrin
the boundaries of the local Historic Irvine Pazk Historic District, where development is
reviewed by the Saim Paul Heritage Preservation Commission.
9. No site plan has been submitted, but PED staff have previously made drawings to •
itlustrate the house move concept. The lot has ample width for the Armstrong House plus
outbuilding(s), but is shallower than would be ideal, depending on the size of the porches
that will be added to the from and rear. It is possible that variances wi11 be needed for
front or rear setbacks and for height.
I. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based on findings 1 through 9, staff recommends approval of
the application to rezone 235 Chestaut Strcet to a residential zoning district, either RT-1, RT-2, or
in wluch the Armstrong House can feasibly be
restored and sold withiu the terms City Council Resolution # O1-423. The decision as to w c o
the three residential districts will be made by the City Council at the time of their public hearing,
after receiving the petitioners' preference.

Dear Ms. Palmer:
a i -r��
Thank you for taking the time to speak with me today in reference to the notice of
violation sent to me.
It is appazent that we violated the law and sold cigarettes to a minor as provided
for by the City violations compliance check. I would, however, like to request that I be
given the opportunity to meet before the City Council to try to get any possible penalty
abated.
I understand that I am tardy in responding to your letter dated June 13, 2001. I
was unaware that I had the opportunity to subordinate the penalty.
Please advise me when I will be on the agenda. Thank you very much for your time
and indulgence.

RE: CigarettelTobacco License held by Calvin's, Inc. d/b/a Vine Park Brewin� Company for
the premises located at 242 West 7` Street in Saint Paul
License ID #: 19990005197
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Of£ce ofLicense Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Calvin's, Inc. d!b/a Vine Park
Brewing Company for the premises located at 242 W. 7` Street in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as foliows:
On June 5, 2001, a tobacco compliance check was conducted at
the premises of Vine Park Brewery located at 242 West 7`
Street in Saint Paul. A fifteen year old female entered the store
and asked to buy cigarettes. She was not asked her age, nor
was she asked to show identification. The clerk sold her a
package of Camel Lights. Sale of tobacco to an underage
person is a violation of Minn. Stat. §609.85 and Saint Paul
Legisiative Code §324.07.
Since this is a first violation, the licensing office will recommend a$204.00 fine.
At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
If you do not dispute the above facts and do not wish to have a public hearing, you will
need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, you should
make payment directly to the Office of License, Inspections and Environmental
Page 2

Q� -r��
Protection, Room 300 Lowry Professional Building, 350 Saint Peter Street, Saint Paul,
Minnesota 55102. The letter should be directed to Ms. Christine Rozek. Payment of the
fine will be considered to be a waiver of the hearing to which you are entitled.
2. Altematively, if you do not dispute the above facts, but wish to have a public hearing
before the Saint Paul City Council, you will need to send me a letter with a statement
admitting the violation and requesting a public hearing. We will need to receive your
letter by Monday, June Z5, 2001. The matter will then be scheduled before the City
Council for a public hearing to determine what penalty, if any, to impose. You will have
an opportunity to appear before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
3. If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative
Law Judge. At that hearing both you and the City will be able to appear and present
witnesses, evidence and cross-examine the other's witnesses. The St. Paul City Council
will ultimately decide the case. If this is your choice, please advise my legal assistant,
Peter Pangborn, and we will take the necessary steps to schedule the administrative
hearing. He can be reached at 266-8710.
If we have not heard from you by Monday, June 25, 2001, we wiil assume that you
do not contest the facts and will schedule this matter for the St. Paul City Council and have
it placed on the Consent Agenda during which no public discussion is allowed and the
recommended penalty will be imposed.
Please be advised that the clerk who was identified as havin� made the sale on this date is
also being chazged an administrative penalty pursuant to 1Vlinn. Stat. §461.12, subd. 3. This is a
separate action from this license matter. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me
at (651) 266-8710.

'I'he City of Saint Pau1hII2A submitted three petitions to rezone property located at 235 Chestnut Street
from P-1(pazlang) to any one of the following residemial zanes: RT-1 (duplex), RT-2 (fourplex or
townhouse) or RM-1(multi-family). Before the City Council public heariug the Historic Irvine Pazk
Association is supposed to detemune which of these zoning districts corresponds to the number of units
they need to develop in order for the Armstrong House move to be economically feasible at the level of
subsidy the HItA has already committed. The Zoning Committee of the Plamvng Comnussion heid a
public heariug on the proposed rezonino on May 31, 2001. There was neighborhood support and no
opposition. At the close of the public hearing, the committee voted 6-0 with one abstention to recommend
approval of whichever residential district was determined to work for the project. On June 8, 2001, the
Pl ann'na Commission upheld the Zoning Committee's recommendation for approval, again on a m�auicnous
vote with one abstention.

ptannina commission may from time to time, review district boundaries lines to determine if,
pursuazrt to staie laws, such district boundary lines should be changed.
Sec. 64.00(b) states in part that "an amendment to the zoniog code may be initiated by the council,
the pt annin� commission or by petition of the owners of sixty-seven (6� percent of the area of the

of Chestnut St. is a leRover parcel. The pazking lot is now a nonconforming use inasmuch as the
pazl�ng is no longer accessory to a specific business. It is a commercially operated lot and, under
the Zouing Code, a principal use. In 1999 and 2000 the Saint Paul HRA worked with a developer
to build new multifamily housing and to move the Armstrong House to the site. However, the •
Irvine Pazk neighbors refused to sign a rezoning petition for the number of housing units proposed
(last proposal was for 12 units) and the proposat died.
Meauwhile, the Sairn Paul FIRA was also looldng for a workable site and redevelopment plan to
move the long-vacant, historic Amistrong House from Smith Ave. near Kellogg Blvd., thus
opening up a lazge site tbat is proposed to become the Smith Avenue Transit Hub at W. Seve�h
and Kellogg. The Historic Iivine Pazk Association (HIPA) tias long been nrterested in the fate of
the Am�strong House because of its proximity to theu neighborhood and hecause a couple of other
eir nei borhood.
When the idea azose that the Armstrong House could be moved to the Plastics parlang lot site with
the neighborhood in control of its redevelopment, the irnerests of the City and the neighborhood
converged. The City will be able to move the Atmstrong House and make way for the new transit
and will also ensure the redevelopmem of the Plastics lot. The Irvine Pazk neighborhood will be
able w save the Annstrong House and control the firture land use of the Plastics lot. This
redevelopmeirt package was apprwed by the City Council in a detailed a resolution approved on
4/25/OI (at[ached).
G. DISTRICT COiJNCIL RECOMMENDATION: The West Seventh Federation recommends
approval of rezoning the pazcel to a residential zoning district for the Arnistrong House move.
Furthermore, they aze actively participating in efforts to put together a feasible development
proposal for its restoration.

The meeting was chaired by Commissioner Kramer.
City of St. Paui HRA - 01-189-219 - Rezone from P-1 to R7-1, fiT-2 or RM-1 Residential for the
purpose of moving the historic Armstrong House to the site for restoration as housing.
Larry Soderholm showed a photo board depiciing the site from various angles and presented ihe
staff report. Mr. Soderholm explained that one of the neighborhood concerns is how the Armstrong
House will impact the views. Mr. Soderholm expiained the Historic Irvine Park Association wili
become the developer of the property and will select a co-developer to help with the renovations.
HRA will provide the funding to do much of the exterior work and the developers will decide how
� many units are necessary to have a feasib{e development and will do the interior finishing. The
Zoning Staff recommends Approval and the City Council endorsed the concept of moving the
house to Irvine Park and rezoning it for residential use in a resolution passed in April of 2001.
Commissioner Gordon said that he approved of the Armstrong house being saved and preseroed.
He asked how many units were allowed under the alternative zoning districts. Mr. Soderholm
expiained that the Armstrong House is designed as a double house, and it could stay that way or
it could be made into four, five or six units. Townhouses by definition have a front and back door,
and it woufd be impossible to redevelop the Armstrong house as townhouses for more than two
units. Mr. Soderhoim stated that the Zoning Staff recommends the rezoning move ahead with a
Planning Commission Resolution that supports any of the three rezonings, whichever the
developers choose before the City Council's public hearing on the case.
Atthe question of Commissioner Morton, Mr. Soderholm stated City Staff has a meeting scheduled
next week with the State Historic Preservation Office, HPC Representatives, and the neighborhood
to check on the progress of the devetopment ptan for the Armstrong tiouse.
Mr. Dan Smith, Project Manager with the Department of Planning and Economic Development,
appeared on behalf of the applicant and offered to answer questions.
Mr. Kev+n McGrath, Vice President of the Historic Irvine Park Association, reported that all the
neighbors who were within the 100-foot radius signed the zoning petition. He also explained that
they were in the process of finding a co-developer.
� At the question of Commissioner Gordon, Mr. McGrath stated the neighbors realize that the
Armstrong House will biock some views.
Upon the question of Commissioner Anfang, Mr. McGrath stated that architect Dick Faricy is
working with the City on the house move. The important factors are to get good views from

3. As planned, the Historic Irvine Park Association (HiPA) will become the
developer of the house and will seleci a co-developer to he{p them with the
renovation. The HRA wiil move the house, put it on a new foundation, and do
much of the exterior restoratian to make the house secure and weather tight, for
exampfe, window and door repairs, tuckpointing, new roof, and front porches.
Then the co-developers will take over and do the interior, utilities, parking, and
landscaping. HIPA is currently conducting their feasibifity analysis to determine
what number of housing units are necessary on the property to make the project
work financiaily. H1PA's goai is to construct the fewest number of units on the
property that will be feasible; the new, residential zoning on fhe property should
be to a corsespondingly restrictive residential zoning district.
4. On 4/25/01 the City Council approved this redevelopment strategy for the
Armstrong House at the Plastics parking fot and for the Sm+th Avenue Transit
Hub, which is a$30 million project north af the Xcel Arena, where the Armstrong
House current{y sits. Their action is laid out in Councii Resolution # 01-423. On
5/23/01 the NRA concurred in this strategy and named HIPA to be the
redeveloper of the Plastics lot.
5. Therefore, the City of Saint Paul, as current owner of the P{astics lot, has
submitted three alternative rezoning petitions for different residential densities--
RT-1 Dupiex; RT-2 Threep{e�Fourplex/Townhouse; and RM-1 Aparfinents. The
petitions are subject to an addendum that explains the proposed redevelopment
steps, as described in findings 2and 3 above. At the time of this Planning
Commission resolution, PED and HIPA do not know how many units will be
developed. They request the Planning Commission to recommend to the City
Council that any of the three zoning districts is satisfactocy. The addendum says
that H1PA wi11 decide which of the three zoning districts it wants at least ten days
before fhe City Council's public hearing on the rezoning. If HIPA does not
submit its preference, the petitioners will recommend RT-1 Quplex zoning. The
addendum has a further provision that if the Armstrong House cannot, fot some
reason, be moved to the site, the petitioners want the zoning to be raturned fo
P-1 Parking.

signed. The addendum was also signed by the same parties. The City and all
of the eligible, nearby homeowners signed the petition.
7. A residential rezoning of the parcei_is consistent with the Comprehensive Pfan.
Historic preservation is advocated in both the Land Use Chapter (Policy5.9.1)
and fhe Housing Chapter (Policy 4.2). The Housing Plan calfs for the production
of more housing units (Policy 5.1 j and design solutions that complement
existing neighborhoods (Policy 5.2). The Land Use Pian calls for development
on the fringes of downtown that create more inviting access to and from the
neighborhoods adjacent to downtown—the Plastics lot prominently overlooks the
new Science Museum Park (Policy 4.6.1).
In addifion, the redevefopment of the W. Seventh and Keilogg site as a
transportation center supports the downtown otFice and visitor sectors with
parking and supports the Riverview Transit Corridor and other bus lines with a
high quality station area. The proposed transportation center conforms to the
goals of the Transportation and Land Use chapters of the Comprehensive Plan.

8. Since the John M. Armsfrong House is listed on the fVationai Register of Historic �
Places, guidetines for the moving and restoration of the hause are speiled out in
detail in a Memorandum of Agreement among the Federa! Highway
Administration, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, the State Historic
Preservation Office, and the City. The Section 106 historic preservation
procedures are being followed. The Plastics lot is within the boundaries of the
local Historic Irvine Park Historic District, where deve(opmenf is reviewed by the
Saint Paul Heritage Preservation Commission.

Committee drawings illustrating the house move concept. The o as am �'�""
width for the Armstrong House plus outbuilding(s), but is shallower than would
be ideai, depending on the size of the porches that will be added to the front and
maybe the rear. Depending on the final sifing of fhe strucfure, if is possible that
variances will be requested for front or rear setbacks and for height.
NOW, TNEREFORE, BE !T RESOLVED, that fhe Saint Paul Planning Commission
recommends to,the City Council that it approve, after receiving the preference of the
Historic Irvi�e Park Association in wrifing, any one of the three residential rezoning
petitions submitted by the City of Saint Paul for RT-1, RT-2, or RM-1 for the properEy

WNEREAS, the City of Saint Paul, File #01-189-219, has petitioned for a rezoning
under the provisions of §64.400 and §60.720 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code, from •
P-1 to a residential district--either RT-1, RT-2, or RM-1—for property (ocated at 235
Chestnut Street (commonly referred fo as the former Plastics, Inc. parking lot); and
WHEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission, on May 31, 2001, held
a public hearing at which ail persons present were given an opportunity to be heard
pursuant to said application in accordance with the requirernenfs of §64.300 of the ,
Saint Paul Legislative Code; and
WNEREAS, the Saint Pau! Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to
its Zoning Committee at the public hearing as substantially reflected in the minutes,
made the following findings of fact:
�
The parcel is 21,dOd square feet, with a potential addition of roughiy 4,000 �
square feet if the Hii! Street right-of-way is vacated. Hill Street cannot be built
because of the topography. The parcel is presently zoned P-1 and is an
unstriped parking lot for roughiy 60 cars. It was a parking lot for Plastics, Inc.
until the company was purchased by the City fo make way for the Science
Museum of Minnesota. The westerly edge of the parcel is a steep slope with
some retaining wails; the parking surface is about 14 feet below the level of the
yard of the historic Ohage House {the yellow brick house), which faces Irvine
Park. Alonq the site, Chestnut Street slopes down toward the river. The parking

2. The proposed use is to move the �istoric Armstrong House to the site and
restore it as residential units. To get a house moving permit from the City, the
Plastics lot must first be rezoned to a residential district. The Armstrong House
is a large structure with a footprint of approximately 3,500 square feet, a
potential finished floor area of 11,000 square feet on three floors, and a height of
45 feef fo the ridge (staff estimate). The house was originatly built as a side-by-

Addendum to Rezoning Petitions for 235 Chestnut St. and 0 Hill St.
Parties agreeing to addendum. This addendum to the rezoning petitions for 235 C`�1 ���
Chestnut Street and 0 Hill Street has been reviewed and agreed to by the foilowin�
parties: Saint Paul PED, Historic Irvine Park Association (HIPA), Kevin McGrath a
Molly Fernholz, Patrick and Rita Fiawkinso Warner, Dirk and Ruth Dantuma, Peter /��
Hilleren, Louis Fillmon and Kazen 7ason� �� �a�� �Je �.+nn . `�
!
2. Purpose. The parties want to accelerate rezoning of 235 Chestnut Street to pemut the
moving of the historic Armstrong House from ifs present location north of the Xcel Arena
to the site. The site's present zoning is P-1, which allows only surface parking. Before the
City can issue moving and foundation permits, the site needs to be zoned to permit
housing. The parties agree that the property on Chestnut Street should be rezoned
to allow the Armstrong House to be moved and that the new zoaing should be the
most restrictive residential zone in which the house can feasibly be restored and
� sold. The City wants to move the house as soon as possible to open up the site north of
the arena for redevelopment.
3. Simultaneous zoning steps and redevelopment anaiysis. HIPA is negotiating to take
ownership of the Armstrong House and to partner with a developer to restore and market
it. At the time of the filing of the rezoning petitions, HIPA has not had time to select a
partner, complete a project feasibility analysis, or determine how many residential units
wili be at the site. While HIPA is working with developers, pubiic agencies, and
contractors to devise a feasible restoration plan for the properry, the City and the property
owners within 100 feet of the Chestnut Street site are initiating three separate residential
rezoning petitions for RT-I (duplex), RT-2 (3-4 units), and RM-1 (multi-family) so that
any one of them can be chosen later.
The petitions will initiate the rezoning process at the Planning Commission; the parties
expect that all three alternatives may still be under consideration when the Planning
Commission holds its hearing and makes its recommendation. At least ten days before the
rezoning petitions come before the City Council for third reading and public hearing,
HIPA will have detemuned and submitted to the City in writing which of the three
alternative rezonings fits its restoration plan. The other two petitions will be withdrawn
by the parties. If HIPA has not made a written recommendation, the parties will
recommend that the Council approve the RT-1 rezoning alternative. As soon as practical
�
� �
after the Council approves a new zoning district, PED will request building permits for �
excauation, a new foundation, and the house move. In addition to the rezoning, other City
approvals will be required before building permits are issued, including height and setback
variances, site plan review, and tustoric review.
4. Nullification of the consents given on the rezoning petitions. Most of the petition
signers specifically support the moving and restoration of the Armstrong House, but
would not support whatever residential development may be permitted in the zoning
district without the house. If the Armstrong House is not moved to Chestnut Street or
suffers severe damage during the move and cannot be restored, the parties want to return
the zoning, at least for the time being, to P-1.
5. Attachment to rezoning petitions for RT-1, RT-2, and RM-1. This addendum is
hereby attached to each of the three rezoning petirions as an explanation for why multiple
petitions are being submitted and as a safeguazd for the affected neighbors.
6. Signatures of the Parties. I agree with the provisions of this addendum. (Please sign
and date.)

H. F7NDINGS:
. 1. The parcel is 21,000 square feet, with a potential addition of rougbly 4,000 square fezt if
the Hill Street right-of-way is vacated. Hill Sueet cannot be built because of the
fopography. The pazcel is presently mned P-1 and is an unsttiped pazking lot for roughly
60 cars. It was a pazldng lot for Plastics, Inc. u�il the company as purchased by the City
to make way for the Science Museum of Mmnesota. The westerly edge of the pazcel is a
steep slope with some retaining walls; the parlang surface is about 14 feet belaw the level
of the yard of the historic Ot�age House (the yellow brick house), wkrich faces Irvine Pazk.
Along the site, Chesmut Street slopes down toward the river. The pazldng lot has been
graded as a terrace that reduces the angle of the slopes.
2. The proposed use is to move the Iristoric Amistrong House to the site and restore it as
residential units. To get a house moving pemrit from the City, the Plastics lot must first be
rezoned to a residential district. The Annstrong House is a lazge structure with a footprim
of approxunately 3,500 square feet, a potemial finished floor area of 11,000 squaze feet on
iluee floors, and a height of 45 feet to the ridge (staff eslunate). The house was originally
built as a side by-side double house. It was later used as a nursing home, but much of the
original floor plan was kept.
3. As planned, the Historic Irvine Pazk Assoeiation (H�A) will become the developer of the
house and will select a co-developer to help them with the renovation. The HRA will move
the house, put it on a new foundation, and do much of the e�cterior restoration to make the
house secure and weather tight, for e�cample, repair windows and doors, tuckpointing, new
roof, and porches. Then the co-developers will take over and do the interior, utilities,
. pazldug, and landscaping. HIPA is currently conducting their feasibility analysis to
detemtine wl�at number of housing units aze necessary on the property to make the project
work financially. HIPA's goal is to consmict the fewest number of units on the properry
that will be feasible; tlris rezoning of the property to will be to a correspondingly
restrictive residential zoning district.
4. On 4/25/Ol the City Council approved Uvs redevelopment strategy for the Armstrong
House at the Plastics pazlang lot and the Smith Avenue Transit Hub. Their action is laid
out in Council Resolution # O 1-423 (attached). On 5123lO1 the HRA concuned in this
strategy and named HIPA to be the redeveloper of the site.
5. Therefore, the Ci1y of Saint Paul, as current owner of the Plastics lot, has submitted three
akernative rezo nina petitions for different resideirtial densities—RT-1 Duplex, RT-2
Threeple�c(Fourplex/Townhouse, and RM-1 Apartmerns. The petitions aze snbject to an
addendum that explains the proposed redevelopment steps, as described in findings 2 and 3
above. At the time of the Planniug Comnvssion's action, PED and HIPA do not expect to
lmow how many units will be developed. They request the Planniug Commission to
recommend to the City Council that any of the three zoning districts is satisfactory. The
addendum says that HIPA will decide which of the three mning districts it wants at least
ten days before the Ciry CounciPs public hearing on the rezoning. If HIPA does not
submit its preference, the petitioners will recommend RT-1 Duplex zoning. The addendum
has a furdier provision that if the Armstrong House cannot, for some reason, be moved to
the site, the petitioners want the zoning to be retumed to P-1 Pazldng.
�
l°1
6. The tluee rezoning petitions are sufficient The pekitions were received on 5/1/Ol. 13
pazcels were efigible to sign the petition, 9 pazcels were needed, 10 sigaed. The addendum
was atso signed by tt�e same parties. The Ciry and all of the eligible, nearby homeowners .
signed the petition.
A residentia] rezoning of the pazcel is consisteut with the Cotnprehensive Plan. Historic
preservation is advocated in both the Land Use Chapter (Policy 5.9.1) and the Housing
Chapter (Poliey 4.2). The Housing Plan calls for the production of more housing units
(Policy 5.1) and design solutions that complement existing neighhorhoods (Policy 52).
The Land Use Plan calls for developmern on the fringes of downtown that create more
inviting access to and from the neighborhoods adjacent to dow�own the Plastics lot
prominently overlooks the new Science Museuru Park (Policy 4.6.1).
In addition, the redevelopmem of the W. Seventh and Kellogg site as a transportation
center supports the downtown office and visitor sectors with pazking and supports the
Riverview Transit Corridor and other bus lines with a lrigh qualiiy station azea. These aze
also goals of the Transportation and Land Use chapter of the Comprehensive Plan.
8. Since the John M. Amu�trong House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Guidelines for the moving and restoration of the house are spelled out in detail in a
Memorandum of Agreement among the Federal Highway Administration, the Advisory
Council on Historic Preservation, the State Historic Preservation Office, and the City. The
Section 1061ristoric preservation procedures aze being followed. The Plastics lot is wiflrin
the boundaries of the local Historic Irvine Pazk Historic District, where development is
reviewed by the Saim Paul Heritage Preservation Commission.
9. No site plan has been submitted, but PED staff have previously made drawings to •
itlustrate the house move concept. The lot has ample width for the Armstrong House plus
outbuilding(s), but is shallower than would be ideal, depending on the size of the porches
that will be added to the from and rear. It is possible that variances wi11 be needed for
front or rear setbacks and for height.
I. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based on findings 1 through 9, staff recommends approval of
the application to rezone 235 Chestaut Strcet to a residential zoning district, either RT-1, RT-2, or
in wluch the Armstrong House can feasibly be
restored and sold withiu the terms City Council Resolution # O1-423. The decision as to w c o
the three residential districts will be made by the City Council at the time of their public hearing,
after receiving the petitioners' preference.
