PAUL 1010 COMMERCE BUILDING • ST. PAUL,MINNESOTA 55101 • PHONE: 223-4151 September 26, 1972 Mr. Harry E. Marshall City Clerk Room 386 City Hall Dear Sir: This is written in response to the petition of William and Ada L. Schaefer to rezone from f°B" and Light Industrial to "C" Residential property located between Stewart Avenue and Shepard Road westerly of Glen Terrace. This property is further described by the legal description on file. This matter was heard at the September 7, 1972, Board of Zoning public hearing. The staff report on file was read. The staff said it could see no objection to the high density residential use of this property based upon surrounding private land uses. The staff considered the alternative land uses and noted the drawbacks to them. The staff continued by pointing out that the big negative factor is the access which is limited to two small frontages. One of these access points would be undesirable because it adjoins a single family area. Because of this limitation, the staff investigated the specific development proposal. The Traffic Engineer was asked to respond to the proposed site plan and also to evaluate the impact of the proposed development on traffic facilities. The Traffic Engineer's letter was read as quoted on page 2 of the minut�s. The letter from the Fire Department (quoted on page 3) reported that access should be provided at two points. The staff pointed out that the Glen Terrace point could be restricted to emergency use only. A letter from the Sewer Design Section of Public Works was read which pointed out that the subject site is not served by sewer facilities and disclosed that their construction is not scheduled until 1976 at the earliest. The letter pointed out the method and cost of the developer building his own connection to existing lines. A letter from the Traffic and Accident Section of the Police Dept. was read which pointed out some of the same access problems. The staff summarized that its investigation into the proposed development disclosed that it was feasible. However, they also considered the possibility of the present proposal being subsequently abandoned and replaced by a plan for typical walk-up buildings. The staff decided that this too would be feasible as long as the necessary portions of Glen Terrace and Stewart Avenues were vacated concurrently with the rezoning. The staff emphasized that concurrent vacation was essential or the City could be left with three separate "C" Residential parcels with intolerable access problems. O . . , , Mr. Harry E. Marshall - Page 2 - September 26, 1972 Finally the staff pointed out that, although it found no insurmountable short range problems with the high density residential use of the property, some longer range problems could evolve. Two of these were mentioned by the Traffic Engineer. One was the development of Elway Street to West 7th Street, which may be assessed to owners of that frontage. The other was the increased pressure to signalize the intersection of Elway and Shepard Road which is undesirable for the expressway character of Shepard Road. Beyond this, the staff noted that the development could interfere with future traffic facilities because of its strategic location near intersections of major traffic corridors. The staff concluded that refusing to rezone the property because of future potential problems could be an easy way out, but that may not be wise unless there is a consistant policy of keeping all intersections of major traffic corridors at a low intensity use. Mr. James Speckman, representing the petition, noted that the future of road building was uncertain, so such speculation should not permanently bar development of the site. He stated that the Traffic Department has always wanted to improve Elway Street and this would help others besides his proposal. He said the access via Glen Terrace would be for specific uses only and noted that the Traffic Engineer did not seem alarmed by the traffic routing. Several residents of the area north of the subject site appeared voicing their concern over the nuisance traffic in their neighborhood at present and expressing their fears that this situation would get worse. As the Board discussed this matter, it was noted that the intersection of Elway and Shepard Road is dangerous at present and needs traffic signals even without the proposed development. The Board discussed the traffic condition on Elway and speculated on alternative ways of gaining access between West 7th and Shepard Road. They noted that the nuisance traffic mentioned by the area residents was generated by Webb Publishing Company. Subsequently, the Board heard a motion to recommend denial because of the effect on the health, safety and welfare of the people in the area and until a better traffic condition can be figured out. The seconding motion noted the traffic problem had not been solved and the rezoning would add to it. It stated this was not the proper location for an apartment development of this size. An argument against the motion stated that there were traffic problems but that reasonable solutions to them have been given and the Planning Board could see that some of the problems are solved. The motion to recommend denial carried by avoteof3tol. The official response of the Bureau of Valuations to the feasibility of vacating G1en Terrace and Stewart Avenue was not available for the Board meeting. The Bureau notes that not all reporting offices have responded, but the Bureau hopes to have a tentative recoaunendation before the Council at the time of the public hearing.

PRESENT ZONING: "B" and Light Industry 7. PURSUANT TO Zoning Code Chapter: 64 Section: .06 Paragraph: 8. STAFF INVESTIGATION & REPORT: Date: September 1, 1972 By: PLR A. SUFFICIENCY: In a letter dated August 18, 1972, the Department of Finance declared the peti.tion sufficient with the owners of 25 or 83% of the 30 parcels within 100' of the subject property having signed the petition. B. HISTORY: There is no zoning history for this site. C. PROPOSED USE: The petition declares the proposed use to be "multiple dwelling". A representative of this development has stated the proposal is for 200 dwelling units of "luxury" apartments in a single 22 story building with internal and external parking. D. FRONTAGE AND AREA: Before vacation of those portions of Glen Terrace and Stewart Avenue as required to develop the property as presently proposed; the subject property i� in three parts. These parts have cumulative frontages on �len Terrace of approximately 930 ft. and on Stewart Avenue of about 700 ft. After vacation of those portions, the site would have a frontage of about 690 ft. along Shepard Road and irregular frontages along Elway St. of about 190 ft. and along Glen Terrace of about 200 ft. � The area of the subject site at present is 170,816 sq. ft. Subsequent street vacations could increase the site area to 225,466 sq. ft. or 5.17 acres. E, AREA ZONING: Property adjoinino to the southwest is zoned Light Industrial. Prope?�ty adjoining to the northwest is "B" Residential beyond which is Commercial zoning along West 7th Street. A Co�nercial district exists at the southeast corner of Montreal Avenue and Elway Street. Property adjoining on the north and east across Elway is "B" Residential as is a small strip of land across Shepard Rd, beyond which is "Unassigned" property. F, COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Apparently because of the severe topology of the site, the Comprehensive Plan recommended open space for the area between Stewart Avenue and the railroad tracks with Limited Industrial use south of Stewart Avenue to Shepard Road. --��.....,._.__�..,_.�._...__ _ -. _____��. WILLIAM AND ADA L. SCHAEFER - Page 2 G. SITE CONDITIONS: The �ite slopes significantly downward to the southeast and is quite wooded. It is presently occupied by eight single family homes in fair to good condition. One house is new and in very good condition. Only a a portion of Stewart Avenue is improved while Glen Terrace is improved through- out the site in a narrow right-of-way. The existing homes are located on large parcels much of which can be considered vacant, not being maintained for yard purposes. H. AREA CONDITIONS: The M�lwaukee Road Fcrd plant spur track is nearby to the north of the site and at a higher elevation. Elway Street with its intersection to Shepard Road adjoins the site to the east. Shepard Road adjoins the site on the southeast and a large parking lot for Webb Publishing Company adjoins the site to the west. Beyond the railroad tracks is a residential area with single family homes and some vacant lots. West 7th Street frontage is developed residentially near Montreal with some commercial uses. I-35E is one block east of the subject site with no interchange with Shepard Road. Across Shepard Road is open space. Industrial uses predominate beyond the Webb Publishing building.
