Holiday Station Stores, Inc. owns the properiy, and Lower Afton Seniors, LLC holds an • option to purchase the property contingent on city approval of their rezoning request. The applicant proposes a 57-unit structure if the request for rezoning is approved. The site plans show a 3-story structure with 42 1-bedroom units, 15 2-bedroom units, an underground gazage with 52 spaces, and an at grade pazking lot with 20 spaces. The applicants are currently working through the site plan review process for the project with the LIEP o�ce. The site plan submitted for I29 rooms conforms is weIl betow the maximum densiry permitted on the site according to Chapter 61.101 of the zoning code. 2. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is in conformance with the Saint Paul Comprehensive Plan. The land use plan of record (1980: "A Plan for Land Use") states that "the city's housing goal is to provide opportunities for every stage of a person's life cycle, from childhood to young adult, to family, to retired empty nester. To do this, the city must increase the housing stock. The combined effects of rising costs and smaller household sizes will create increased demand for smaller, one and two bedroom dwelling units foi both ownership and rental purposes. In addition, transportation-related energy costs and consumption can be reduced by locating the new housing in close proximity to shopping and with good access to transit". The properiy in question is served by Bus Routes #3 and #350 serving downtown St. Paul, Sun Ray shoppine mOV �ap�l� `/ dbury. �� Wencl 7 seconded by in favor Unanimous � against �� 1 1� • The District 1 Plan (1985) provides mixed support for the property in question. It states that it "supports the westwazd expansion of the Shamrock Plaza commercial area, but only to fill the land currently zoned B-2". The Shamrock Plaza commercial did not expand west to the applicanYs property, but a new small commercial use has been developed direcily east of the Shamrock Plaza shopping strip, in the city of Maplewood. The District 1 Plan refers to the fact in general, rezonings to multi-family densities were not desired, however, it is believed that the statement refers to the issue of rezoning property zoned single family residential to multi-family housing, thereby increasing density. In this case, the rezoning request is to change from commercial to residential. The Plan does state that "the District 1 Council will support additional senior housing opportunities in the District (with social activities and support services located on-site)". 3. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed and will not have an adverse impact on the surrounding area. The area has developed with a diversity of uses: single family, two family, and multiple family housing, commercial and service uses, and open space. The combination of services and amenities in close proximity make the site a desirable location for senior housing. 4. The applicant submitted a sufficient petition signed by two-thirds of the proper[y within one � hundred (100) feet of the properry to be rezoned (3 pazcels eligible, 2 parcels needed, and 2 pazcels signed). 5. The intent of the B-2 zoning district states: "to serve the needs of a consumer population larger than that served by the `Local Business DistricY and is generally chazacterized by a cluster of establishments generating lazge volumes of vehiculaz and pedestrian traffid'. The intent of the RM-2 zoning district states: "to provide for more extensive azeas of mnitiple- family residential development as well as uses related to the multiple-family residential districts, or uses which serve one-family residential needs and require more ea�tensive sites. The RM-2 district is further provided to permiY comprehensive development of a muitiple-family pro}ect so as to establish a balance of population concentration as related to major thoroughfares and transit, and related facilities". NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Saint Paul Planning Commission, that under the authority of the City's Legislative Code, the application for a Rezoning to allow Application to rezone from B-2 to RM-2. at LOWER AFTON ROAD 201 feet west of Mcknight Road is hereby approved. ►�.I Saint Paui Planaing Commission City Hafl Conference Center 15 TCellogg Boulevard West A meeting of the Planning Commission of the Ciry of Saint Paul was he(d Friday, Augast 28, 1998, at 83d a.m. in the Conference Center of City Halt.

I. Appraval of Minutes of August 14, 1998 MOTION: Commissioner Kramer moved approva! of the minutes ofAugust 14, 1998; Commissianer Wencl seconded the molion which ca�ried unanimously on a vnice vote. II. Chair's Announcements Chair Morton thanked commissioners for being present, She mentioned that rivo wee[cs ago, the meeting was delayed until9 a.m. because there was not a quorum until then. She emphasized the importance of callin� Jean when commissioners know they wili not be able ta make a meeting. She would rather cancel a meeting when it appears that quorum will not be reached rather than have everyone else come to a meeting ihat results in a non-meetina. Chair Morton pointed to the monitors where a picture of ttie Dadlez triplets was being d[splayed: one boy, Peter (5 (bs. l i oz.) and two girls, Zoe (416s. 5 oz} and MoI(y (4 Ibs. I4 oz.), born August 20 at 9 p.m. Mom, dad and babies are all heaithy and happy. III. Planning Administrator's Announcements Mr. Ford anaounced that the APA has sent communication about their Audio Trainiag Conference Program. Ftyers are on the tabte oat front. These conferences are set up on the telephone. Registration is possib[e ifthere is enough interest in participating. Piease let Chair Morton or Mr. Ford know if you are interested. An upcoming conference available is cafled "The Character of Community" havin� to do with the heightened interest in cities and the physical quality of communities. • �� L � � q�� At City Council there will be a hearing on September 9, 1998 on the Port Authority's replatting of land on William's Hill for the new plan and a business. But it raises an interesting issue. A clear positive recommendation on the replatting will be difficult to make because iYs in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan because of the ECBD bypass right-of-way. It means that there will probably need to be an amendment to tfie p(an which will need to be approved by the Metropolitan Council which could raise some issues about the overall transportation system. Scenic Minnesota has appealed the decision on the storm dama�ed biltboards on Grand Avenue and in Highland V illage. The City Council is discussing the request of a study of pawn shops, smoke shops and currency exchanges, and the zoning for them. Commissioner Geisser asked if the Planning Commission had not done such a study in the not too distant past. Mr. Ford replied that thece had been a study done on pawn shops, but there is sti(t some concern about the whole cluster of these kinds of uses that come together, and concem about the increase in these uses in some paRs of the city. Chair MortoR refersed to a letter on the table to Gerald SVathmann at Council Research from the Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce regarding billboards. The Chamber asks that the Planning Commission co�duct a survey or public input process specifically for the users of billboards and the hospitality industry to see how they feel about outdoor signage and its usefulness, as well as the aesthetics of them in the communities. � N.

He was notified of the violations in approximately January, February of this year and he told the licensing division that he was not going to comp(y. He appeazed at the Zoning Committee meeting saying that he now understood all of the conditions.

Commissioner Nordin no[ed that she was troubied by some of the wordiag of the conditions. She feels that since he has been delinquent, the conditions should specify that not only that • plans be submitted and approved by a certain date, but the conditions should also specify that a �.�4� � construction be completed by a certain date. Commissioner Kramer noted that the intent of the Zoning Committee was that the work should actually be completed by October 20, 1998. Commissionec Wencl agreed. Mr. Torstenson added that a site p(an needs to be su6mitted to LIEP where stafFwould appcove it. Commissioner Engh expressed that clearer language be used in the resolution. MOTION: Commissioner Gordon moved that the language "be sabmilted jor approval and cossiruction completed by October 20, 1998" be used for both numbers 1 and 2 nf the condi[ions.

Northwest Quadrant Report: Tom Harrea Mr. Harren spent a few minutes expiaining some sta�ng changes that have taken place within PED. Jim O'Leary has become the Executive Director of RiverCenter. As a result of that, there were some staffing needs in the Director's Office that Ms. Wheelock needed to filt. She decided that A1 Lovejoy, team leader of the Southwest Quadrant, wil( become part of the Director's staff with some overall responsi6ilities for coordinating some intergovemmental relationships that PED has with the federal govemment, state government and agencies like the Metropolitan Council. He will continue to have the overall leadership responsibility for the zoning activities within the department. He will also be responsible for the development of the Capital Allocation Plan and Phase II of the MNRRA Plan. Susan Kimberly, team leader for the Southtvest Quadrant will replace Al as team leader for the Southeast Quadrant and the � downtown area. Mr. Harren announced that, on an interim basis, he will be serving as the team leader for the Southwest Quadrant during the time PED is looking for a new team leader; and at the same time, he wil! continue to serve as team leader for Yhe Northwest Quadrant. Mr. Harren then introduced a new staff member, Joel Spoonheim, who has been hired as a planner. Joel is learning about the many things PED is doing in the Northwest Quadrant, and zeroing in on the things that he can be most helpful with in meeting some of PED's needs. Joel is a recent graduate of the Humphry Instit�te and is expected to be a great asset to PED as well as to the Planning Commission. Mr. Harren handed out a progress report of the 1998 priorities for the Northwest Quadrant Team. He drew attention to those priorities that have changed some: - Oakland Village Initially, this was a very ambitious project; it has been scaled back. - University Avenue Opportunities keep popping up; more is happening than was initially Midway expected. Re-development of the bus bam site is major. The Home Developaeent Depot is negotiating for the Lexina on/LJniversiry site. Dale and University may be the site of a community design workshop. - West Midway Parking for the Specialty Building; a parking study is being completed for the rest of this azea. - Great Northern/ Legislators are becoming interested in the development of that area and Central Corridor how it is connected Yo the Phalen Corridor. They aze looking to the City for some guidance in determining the priorities in development along that stretch. - Snel(ing Avenue The Hamline-Midway Community Plan is expected to be compieted Hamline-Midway some time in October and come before the Planning Commission for review. A very good housing strategy has come out of that pracess. Joel Spoonheim will work with the community to develop an action plan for commercial development along Snelling. - Capitol Heights A new project area for the Northwes[ Quadrant. A planning process has begun there to look at what the ppYentials aze for some redevelopment in that area, emphasizing fiousing. A p[an will be compieted some time before the end of the yeac The coordination of housing activities wiih the potential for some commercial developmenTS is key. Commissioner McDonell, referring to the Specialty Buiiding on page 5 of the handout, asked Mr. Harren to help him understand 100 pazking spaces per floor and how that number is determined. Mr. Harren responded that the building is anticipated to be used as office space and so the requirements are 100 parking spaces per floor. Commissioner McDoneli reminded commissioners that the question about Yhe current bus barn site has come up before, and it probably should have been included in previous plans. Given that site's significance, Commissioner McDonell hopes that the Planning Commission will 6e given an opportunity to review and comment on redevelopment possibilities. � � With regard to the Specialty Bui(ding, Commissioner Kramer asked Mr. Harren about the big � a �.�� parcel of land that was to become available through ta�c forfeiture and used for parking. Mr. Harren noted that the City is still negotiating on that piece of property. Commissioner Faricy asked whether there has been positive progress made in the relocation of the bus barn. Mr. Harren reptied that Metropolitan Transit wifi be making a decision on one of the four sites at the end of October. Part of making that decision is dependent upon the Minnesota Department of Transportation's rerouting of Interstate 35E. Commissioner Nowlin noted that he was impressed with the list of projects and commended everyone working on it. In order to stimulate projecu and amact private sector money, he suggested that the City might consider putting down dollar amount ranges for City assistance in connection with troubied or difficult to develop property. Mr. Harren responded that, in some cases, the City does have dotlar figures on how much the ctean-ap of these azeas woutd be. He noted that if such a list wouid 6e put toaether, it would indicate many more resources than are available. As developers express their interests, the City has generalfy relied on state and Metropolitan Council money for the clean-up portions of these areas. Saint Paul has been very successful in tapping those funds. In almost afl cases where the City is looking at major development, there is some clean-up cost associated with the assembly of the site. Commissioner Geisser asked if Mr. Harren had any idea who was going into the Wards site. He answered that he did not. She then asked, referring to the Specialty Bui(ding, why there has been no incentive given to employees, like bus passes or subsidized bus passes, by the employers, especialty since Raymond and University is very transit accessible? She sees this • as a perfect oppoRunity to experiment with this incentive. Commissioner Geisser does not find providing 100 parking spaces per floor encouraging to any type of alternative travel modes. She asked why in this area is it required to have 100 parking spaces per floor while there is no parking requirement in downtown? Mr. Harren replied that he believes that 100 parking spaces per floor is consistent with the current requirement for parking spaces for office space. He noted that developers say that without the adequate parking spaces, they have trouble getting the tenants. While the City may believe that alternative transit might work, the developers are not convinced. Commissioner Nordin suggested that perhaps after the tenant is already in the building, the City could propose a bus package. Mr. Harren responded that as PED is looking at development principles for University Avenue and working with the Midway Chamber of Commerce and neighborhood organizations, PED does talk about creating pedestrian and transit friendly development along University Avenue. Parking does need to be reviewed in that uea even though University Avenue appears to be an ideal place to experiment with aitemative transit. Commissioner Gordon expressed that he, too, was impressed the number of quality projects in the works. With respect to Fairview and [3niversity, he asked if Mr. Harren knew fiow many 6usinesses would be taken out and Fvhether the City is making efforts to accommodate those businesses in getting them to relocate elsewhere in Saint Paul. Mr. Harren answered that there are 6-8 businesses located on that corner and PED has been working with them. There is frustration on the part of the tenants because right now the City is in a period of signing a memorandum on agreement on this project, but the City has not signed a development • agreement with the developer. Until that time, there is really no o�cial thing that can be done as far as relocation. City staff and a consultant has met with the tenants and have actually begun to take them through the steps of the process. In the future, it is hoped that the City can take � steps to be more sensitive about informing tenants of a redevelopment, Commissioner Nordin suggested that Saint Paui tatce advantage ofthe Minnesota Design Team to do design studies in areas considered for redevelopment such as Dale and University. Commissioner Wencl asked whether there has been any discussion about creating indoor tennis courts for the Great NorthemlCentra( Corridor azea? Mr. Harren replied that he did not know. Commissioner Treichel commented that residents around the azea of the Midway Mazket Place and Midway Center are a(ways concerned about the fact that p(ace is not kept as clean as it could be by the current tenants. She suggested that tenants might allocate a little more of their resources to clean-up. Mr. Harren responded that the Midway Cham6er has a project going to help keep sidewa(ks ciean on Universiry Avenue. He said that he wi(I bring it up with the Chamber. Commissioner Duarte asked whether some of the costs incuaed by redevelopment aze chazged to the pubiic under "special assessments." Mr. Harren answered that in most of projects that PED is involded with, there are public funds that ue in some way provided for these deveioprtents; a TIF district, some type of loan, in some cases, and grants. He stated that he did not kno�v whether there were any special assessments charged to the public. Mr. Ford commented further relating to Commissioner Geisser's question about parking and the Specialty Building and University Avenue. Going through the testimony received on the Draft � 90s Plan, there was quite a bit of comment about needing an increase in parking downtown as developmenY proceeds downtown. People felT that is highly inconsistenY with the Transportation Plan which says that we need to diversify our transportation and encourage much more reliance on transit. Mr. Ford doesn't know how Saint Paul is going to get out of this conundrum. Not too long ago, Mr, Ford stated that he answered the criticism from a City Council member about high parking requirements downtown as something that is not promoting transit. Commissioner Geisser is right. Saint Paul does not have parking requirements downtown, but transit downtown is much better than on University Avenue. The fact is that anyone who is going to build downtown will not do it untess they can be assured that they-can have a good deal of parking and it's probably going to be more pazking than if Saint Paui had pazking requirements downtown. Saint Paul has a pub[ic that does not accept tfie use of transit. Saint Paul does not ase it much downtown, and not many people are going to use it to go to the Specialty Offtce Building. What iYs going to take to overcome that is not known. A cfiange in Saint PauPs parking requirements is not going to do it because it's the developers who want the parking. The idea of experiments and the things that Metro Transit is trying to do to increase employers to encourage other modes of transit are good things to see. VI.

Martha Faust, PED, gave a slide presentation and reviewed the staff report. She stated staff recommends approval of the petition to rezone the property from B-2 to RM-2. In response to Commissioner Wencl, Ms. Fa�st explained that the 129 rooms are the calculated density according to the City's schedule of regulations. Since the proposed project incorporates underground parking, a density bonus was given. Loren Spande of 4515 Oak Chase Road, a member of the Lower Afton Seniors L.L.C. appeared. He stated that the proposed buiiding is to be a three story, 55 and oider buiiding. Upon question of Commissioner Kramer, Mr. Spande stated that the project is fully financed. No one appeared in opposition, and the public hearing was ciosed. Commissioner Faricy moved approval of the staff recommendation and the motion was seconded by Commissioner Wencl. There was no further discussion, and the motion was called recommending approval.

F. HISTORY/DISCUSSION: There are no previous zoning cases related to this property. G. DISTRICT COUNCIL RECOI�dENDATION: The District 1 Council held a meeting August 11, 1998 at which they voted to support the applicant's request. H. FINDINGS: 1. Holiday Station Stores, Inc. owns the property, and Lower Afton Seniors, LLC holds an option to purchase the property contingent on city approval o£ their rezoning request. Following this report is a copy of site plans for a proposed 57-unit structure that the applicants intend to construct if the request for rezoning is approved. The site plans show a 3-story structure with 42 1-bedroom units, 15 2-bedroom units, an underground garage with 52 spaces, and an at grade parking lot with 20 spaces. The applicants are currently working through the site plan review process for the project with the LIEP office. The site plan submitted for 129 rooms conforms is well below the maximum density permitted on the site according to Chapter 61.101 of the zoning code. • 2. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is in conformance with the Saint Paul • Comprehensive Plan. The land use plan of record (198Q: "A Plan for Land Use") states that '�the city's housing goal is to provide opportunities for every stage o£ a person's life cycle, from childhood to young adult, to £amily, to retired empty nester. To do this, the city must increase the housing stock. The combined ef£ects of rising costs and smaller household sizes wi11 create increased demand for smaller, one and two bedroom dwelling units for both ownership and rental purposes. In addition, transportation-related energy costs and consumption can be reduced by locating the new housing in close proximity to shopping and with good access to transit". The property in question is served by Sus Routes #3 and ,�350 serving downtown St. Paul, Sun Ray shopping center, and Woodbury. The District 1 Plan (1985) provides mixed support for the property in question. It states that it "supports the westward expansion of the Shamrock Plaza commercial area, but only to fill the land currently zoned B-2". The Shamrock Plaza commercial did not expand west to the applicant's property, but a new sma11 commercial use has been developed directly east oE the Shamrock Plaza shoppinq strip, in the city of Maplewood. The District 1 Plan re£ers to the fact in general, rezonings to multi- family densities were not desired, however,it is believed that the statement refers to the issue of rezoning property zoned single family residential to multi-family housing, thereby increasing density. In this case, the rezoning request is to change from commercial to residential. The Plan does state that "the District 1 Council will support additional senior housing opportunities in the District (with • social activities and support services located on-site)". q�'�`� 1 • Zoning File �98-136 Page Three 3. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed and will not have aa adverse impzct on the surrounding area. The area has developed with a diversity of uses: single family, two £amily, and multiple family nousing, commercial and service uses, and open space. The combination of services and amenities in close proximity make the site a desirable location for senior housing. 4. The applicant submitted a su££icient petition signed by two-thirds of the property within one hundred (100) feet of the property to be rezoned (3 parcels eligible, 2 parcels needed, and 2 parcels signed). 5. The intent oP the B-2 zoning district states: "to serve the needs of a consumer population larger than that served by the `Local Business District' and is qenerally characterized by a cluster of establishments generating large volumers of vehicular and pedestrian traffic". The intent of the RM-2 zoning district states: "to provide for more extensive areas of multiple-family residential development as we11 as uses related to the multiple-family residential districts, or uses which serve one-family residential needs and require more extensive sites. The RM-2 district is £urther provided to permit comprehensive development of a multiple-family project so as to establish a balance of population concentration as related to major thoroughfares and transit, and related facilities". • I.

Holiday Station Stores, Inc. owns the properiy, and Lower Afton Seniors, LLC holds an • option to purchase the property contingent on city approval of their rezoning request. The applicant proposes a 57-unit structure if the request for rezoning is approved. The site plans show a 3-story structure with 42 1-bedroom units, 15 2-bedroom units, an underground gazage with 52 spaces, and an at grade pazking lot with 20 spaces. The applicants are currently working through the site plan review process for the project with the LIEP o�ce. The site plan submitted for I29 rooms conforms is weIl betow the maximum densiry permitted on the site according to Chapter 61.101 of the zoning code. 2. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is in conformance with the Saint Paul Comprehensive Plan. The land use plan of record (1980: "A Plan for Land Use") states that "the city's housing goal is to provide opportunities for every stage of a person's life cycle, from childhood to young adult, to family, to retired empty nester. To do this, the city must increase the housing stock. The combined effects of rising costs and smaller household sizes will create increased demand for smaller, one and two bedroom dwelling units foi both ownership and rental purposes. In addition, transportation-related energy costs and consumption can be reduced by locating the new housing in close proximity to shopping and with good access to transit". The properiy in question is served by Bus Routes #3 and #350 serving downtown St. Paul, Sun Ray shoppine mOV �ap�l� `/ dbury. �� Wencl 7 seconded by in favor Unanimous � against �� 1 1� • The District 1 Plan (1985) provides mixed support for the property in question. It states that it "supports the westwazd expansion of the Shamrock Plaza commercial area, but only to fill the land currently zoned B-2". The Shamrock Plaza commercial did not expand west to the applicanYs property, but a new small commercial use has been developed direcily east of the Shamrock Plaza shopping strip, in the city of Maplewood. The District 1 Plan refers to the fact in general, rezonings to multi-family densities were not desired, however, it is believed that the statement refers to the issue of rezoning property zoned single family residential to multi-family housing, thereby increasing density. In this case, the rezoning request is to change from commercial to residential. The Plan does state that "the District 1 Council will support additional senior housing opportunities in the District (with social activities and support services located on-site)". 3. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed and will not have an adverse impact on the surrounding area. The area has developed with a diversity of uses: single family, two family, and multiple family housing, commercial and service uses, and open space. The combination of services and amenities in close proximity make the site a desirable location for senior housing. 4. The applicant submitted a sufficient petition signed by two-thirds of the proper[y within one � hundred (100) feet of the properry to be rezoned (3 pazcels eligible, 2 parcels needed, and 2 pazcels signed). 5. The intent of the B-2 zoning district states: "to serve the needs of a consumer population larger than that served by the `Local Business DistricY and is generally chazacterized by a cluster of establishments generating lazge volumes of vehiculaz and pedestrian traffid'. The intent of the RM-2 zoning district states: "to provide for more extensive azeas of mnitiple- family residential development as well as uses related to the multiple-family residential districts, or uses which serve one-family residential needs and require more ea�tensive sites. The RM-2 district is further provided to permiY comprehensive development of a muitiple-family pro}ect so as to establish a balance of population concentration as related to major thoroughfares and transit, and related facilities". NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Saint Paul Planning Commission, that under the authority of the City's Legislative Code, the application for a Rezoning to allow Application to rezone from B-2 to RM-2. at LOWER AFTON ROAD 201 feet west of Mcknight Road is hereby approved. ►�.I Saint Paui Planaing Commission City Hafl Conference Center 15 TCellogg Boulevard West A meeting of the Planning Commission of the Ciry of Saint Paul was he(d Friday, Augast 28, 1998, at 83d a.m. in the Conference Center of City Halt. Commissioners Present: Commissioners Absent: Mmes. Duacte, Engh, Faricy, Geisser, MoROn, Nordin, Treichel, and Wencl and Messrs. Geroais, Gordon, Johnson, Kong, Kramer, McDonell, and Nowlin.

I. Appraval of Minutes of August 14, 1998 MOTION: Commissioner Kramer moved approva! of the minutes ofAugust 14, 1998; Commissianer Wencl seconded the molion which ca�ried unanimously on a vnice vote. II. Chair's Announcements Chair Morton thanked commissioners for being present, She mentioned that rivo wee[cs ago, the meeting was delayed until9 a.m. because there was not a quorum until then. She emphasized the importance of callin� Jean when commissioners know they wili not be able ta make a meeting. She would rather cancel a meeting when it appears that quorum will not be reached rather than have everyone else come to a meeting ihat results in a non-meetina. Chair Morton pointed to the monitors where a picture of ttie Dadlez triplets was being d[splayed: one boy, Peter (5 (bs. l i oz.) and two girls, Zoe (416s. 5 oz} and MoI(y (4 Ibs. I4 oz.), born August 20 at 9 p.m. Mom, dad and babies are all heaithy and happy. III. Planning Administrator's Announcements Mr. Ford anaounced that the APA has sent communication about their Audio Trainiag Conference Program. Ftyers are on the tabte oat front. These conferences are set up on the telephone. Registration is possib[e ifthere is enough interest in participating. Piease let Chair Morton or Mr. Ford know if you are interested. An upcoming conference available is cafled "The Character of Community" havin� to do with the heightened interest in cities and the physical quality of communities. • �� L � � q�� At City Council there will be a hearing on September 9, 1998 on the Port Authority's replatting of land on William's Hill for the new plan and a business. But it raises an interesting issue. A clear positive recommendation on the replatting will be difficult to make because iYs in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan because of the ECBD bypass right-of-way. It means that there will probably need to be an amendment to tfie p(an which will need to be approved by the Metropolitan Council which could raise some issues about the overall transportation system. Scenic Minnesota has appealed the decision on the storm dama�ed biltboards on Grand Avenue and in Highland V illage. The City Council is discussing the request of a study of pawn shops, smoke shops and currency exchanges, and the zoning for them. Commissioner Geisser asked if the Planning Commission had not done such a study in the not too distant past. Mr. Ford replied that thece had been a study done on pawn shops, but there is sti(t some concern about the whole cluster of these kinds of uses that come together, and concem about the increase in these uses in some paRs of the city. Chair MortoR refersed to a letter on the table to Gerald SVathmann at Council Research from the Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce regarding billboards. The Chamber asks that the Planning Commission co�duct a survey or public input process specifically for the users of billboards and the hospitality industry to see how they feel about outdoor signage and its usefulness, as well as the aesthetics of them in the communities. � N.

He was notified of the violations in approximately January, February of this year and he told the licensing division that he was not going to comp(y. He appeazed at the Zoning Committee meeting saying that he now understood all of the conditions. MOTION: Conxmissioner A'encl moved denial of the revocation of a nanconforming use permit and revise the nonconforming use permit to require improvements by October 20, 1998. Commissioner Nordin no[ed that she was troubied by some of the wordiag of the conditions. She feels that since he has been delinquent, the conditions should specify that not only that • plans be submitted and approved by a certain date, but the conditions should also specify that a �.�4� � construction be completed by a certain date. Commissioner Kramer noted that the intent of the Zoning Committee was that the work should actually be completed by October 20, 1998. Commissionec Wencl agreed. Mr. Torstenson added that a site p(an needs to be su6mitted to LIEP where stafFwould appcove it. Commissioner Engh expressed that clearer language be used in the resolution. MOTION: Commissioner Gordon moved that the language "be sabmilted jor approval and cossiruction completed by October 20, 1998" be used for both numbers 1 and 2 nf the condi[ions. The mation was seconded by Commissioner Nowlin and carried unanimous/y on a voice vote. The motion on the floor to deny revocation of a nonconforming use permit and revise it to require improvements be completed by October 20, 1998 carried unanimously on a voice vote. #98-175 R& R Books - Nonconforming Use Permit appiication to allow extension of a nonconforming adu(t use at 674 University Avenue (Markha Faust, 266-6572). MOTION: Commissioner Wencl moved to deny the request to allow an extension oja nonconjorming adult use at 674 University Avenue. Commissioner Wencl informed commissioners that this estabiishment has a month to month � lease for their business and has two Types of uses. There is no case of hardship. The motion on the floor to deny the �equested extension of a nonconforming adu[t use at 674 C7niversity Avenue carried unanimously on a voice vote. Commissioner Wencl read the agenda (7 cases) for the next Zoning Committee meeting on Thursday, September 3, 1998. C(lair MoRon announced that 7oe Chavez has sent a letter of resignation to the Planning Commission; and that Dennis Gervais will be repiacing Joe on.the Zoning Committee. V. Northwest Quadrant Report: Tom Harrea Mr. Harren spent a few minutes expiaining some sta�ng changes that have taken place within PED. Jim O'Leary has become the Executive Director of RiverCenter. As a result of that, there were some staffing needs in the Director's Office that Ms. Wheelock needed to filt. She decided that A1 Lovejoy, team leader of the Southwest Quadrant, wil( become part of the Director's staff with some overall responsi6ilities for coordinating some intergovemmental relationships that PED has with the federal govemment, state government and agencies like the Metropolitan Council. He will continue to have the overall leadership responsibility for the zoning activities within the department. He will also be responsible for the development of the Capital Allocation Plan and Phase II of the MNRRA Plan. Susan Kimberly, team leader for the Southtvest Quadrant will replace Al as team leader for the Southeast Quadrant and the � downtown area. Mr. Harren announced that, on an interim basis, he will be serving as the team leader for the Southwest Quadrant during the time PED is looking for a new team leader; and at the same time, he wil! continue to serve as team leader for Yhe Northwest Quadrant. Mr. Harren then introduced a new staff member, Joel Spoonheim, who has been hired as a planner. Joel is learning about the many things PED is doing in the Northwest Quadrant, and zeroing in on the things that he can be most helpful with in meeting some of PED's needs. Joel is a recent graduate of the Humphry Instit�te and is expected to be a great asset to PED as well as to the Planning Commission. Mr. Harren handed out a progress report of the 1998 priorities for the Northwest Quadrant Team. He drew attention to those priorities that have changed some: - Oakland Village Initially, this was a very ambitious project; it has been scaled back. - University Avenue Opportunities keep popping up; more is happening than was initially Midway expected. Re-development of the bus bam site is major. The Home Developaeent Depot is negotiating for the Lexina on/LJniversiry site. Dale and University may be the site of a community design workshop. - West Midway Parking for the Specialty Building; a parking study is being completed for the rest of this azea. - Great Northern/ Legislators are becoming interested in the development of that area and Central Corridor how it is connected Yo the Phalen Corridor. They aze looking to the City for some guidance in determining the priorities in development along that stretch. - Snel(ing Avenue The Hamline-Midway Community Plan is expected to be compieted Hamline-Midway some time in October and come before the Planning Commission for review. A very good housing strategy has come out of that pracess. Joel Spoonheim will work with the community to develop an action plan for commercial development along Snelling. - Capitol Heights A new project area for the Northwes[ Quadrant. A planning process has begun there to look at what the ppYentials aze for some redevelopment in that area, emphasizing fiousing. A p[an will be compieted some time before the end of the yeac The coordination of housing activities wiih the potential for some commercial developmenTS is key. Commissioner McDonell, referring to the Specialty Buiiding on page 5 of the handout, asked Mr. Harren to help him understand 100 pazking spaces per floor and how that number is determined. Mr. Harren responded that the building is anticipated to be used as office space and so the requirements are 100 parking spaces per floor. Commissioner McDoneli reminded commissioners that the question about Yhe current bus barn site has come up before, and it probably should have been included in previous plans. Given that site's significance, Commissioner McDonell hopes that the Planning Commission will 6e given an opportunity to review and comment on redevelopment possibilities. � � With regard to the Specialty Bui(ding, Commissioner Kramer asked Mr. Harren about the big � a �.�� parcel of land that was to become available through ta�c forfeiture and used for parking. Mr. Harren noted that the City is still negotiating on that piece of property. Commissioner Faricy asked whether there has been positive progress made in the relocation of the bus barn. Mr. Harren reptied that Metropolitan Transit wifi be making a decision on one of the four sites at the end of October. Part of making that decision is dependent upon the Minnesota Department of Transportation's rerouting of Interstate 35E. Commissioner Nowlin noted that he was impressed with the list of projects and commended everyone working on it. In order to stimulate projecu and amact private sector money, he suggested that the City might consider putting down dollar amount ranges for City assistance in connection with troubied or difficult to develop property. Mr. Harren responded that, in some cases, the City does have dotlar figures on how much the ctean-ap of these azeas woutd be. He noted that if such a list wouid 6e put toaether, it would indicate many more resources than are available. As developers express their interests, the City has generalfy relied on state and Metropolitan Council money for the clean-up portions of these areas. Saint Paul has been very successful in tapping those funds. In almost afl cases where the City is looking at major development, there is some clean-up cost associated with the assembly of the site. Commissioner Geisser asked if Mr. Harren had any idea who was going into the Wards site. He answered that he did not. She then asked, referring to the Specialty Bui(ding, why there has been no incentive given to employees, like bus passes or subsidized bus passes, by the employers, especialty since Raymond and University is very transit accessible? She sees this • as a perfect oppoRunity to experiment with this incentive. Commissioner Geisser does not find providing 100 parking spaces per floor encouraging to any type of alternative travel modes. She asked why in this area is it required to have 100 parking spaces per floor while there is no parking requirement in downtown? Mr. Harren replied that he believes that 100 parking spaces per floor is consistent with the current requirement for parking spaces for office space. He noted that developers say that without the adequate parking spaces, they have trouble getting the tenants. While the City may believe that alternative transit might work, the developers are not convinced. Commissioner Nordin suggested that perhaps after the tenant is already in the building, the City could propose a bus package. Mr. Harren responded that as PED is looking at development principles for University Avenue and working with the Midway Chamber of Commerce and neighborhood organizations, PED does talk about creating pedestrian and transit friendly development along University Avenue. Parking does need to be reviewed in that uea even though University Avenue appears to be an ideal place to experiment with aitemative transit. Commissioner Gordon expressed that he, too, was impressed the number of quality projects in the works. With respect to Fairview and [3niversity, he asked if Mr. Harren knew fiow many 6usinesses would be taken out and Fvhether the City is making efforts to accommodate those businesses in getting them to relocate elsewhere in Saint Paul. Mr. Harren answered that there are 6-8 businesses located on that corner and PED has been working with them. There is frustration on the part of the tenants because right now the City is in a period of signing a memorandum on agreement on this project, but the City has not signed a development • agreement with the developer. Until that time, there is really no o�cial thing that can be done as far as relocation. City staff and a consultant has met with the tenants and have actually begun to take them through the steps of the process. In the future, it is hoped that the City can take � steps to be more sensitive about informing tenants of a redevelopment, Commissioner Nordin suggested that Saint Paui tatce advantage ofthe Minnesota Design Team to do design studies in areas considered for redevelopment such as Dale and University. Commissioner Wencl asked whether there has been any discussion about creating indoor tennis courts for the Great NorthemlCentra( Corridor azea? Mr. Harren replied that he did not know. Commissioner Treichel commented that residents around the azea of the Midway Mazket Place and Midway Center are a(ways concerned about the fact that p(ace is not kept as clean as it could be by the current tenants. She suggested that tenants might allocate a little more of their resources to clean-up. Mr. Harren responded that the Midway Cham6er has a project going to help keep sidewa(ks ciean on Universiry Avenue. He said that he wi(I bring it up with the Chamber. Commissioner Duarte asked whether some of the costs incuaed by redevelopment aze chazged to the pubiic under "special assessments." Mr. Harren answered that in most of projects that PED is involded with, there are public funds that ue in some way provided for these deveioprtents; a TIF district, some type of loan, in some cases, and grants. He stated that he did not kno�v whether there were any special assessments charged to the public. Mr. Ford commented further relating to Commissioner Geisser's question about parking and the Specialty Building and University Avenue. Going through the testimony received on the Draft � 90s Plan, there was quite a bit of comment about needing an increase in parking downtown as developmenY proceeds downtown. People felT that is highly inconsistenY with the Transportation Plan which says that we need to diversify our transportation and encourage much more reliance on transit. Mr. Ford doesn't know how Saint Paul is going to get out of this conundrum. Not too long ago, Mr, Ford stated that he answered the criticism from a City Council member about high parking requirements downtown as something that is not promoting transit. Commissioner Geisser is right. Saint Paul does not have parking requirements downtown, but transit downtown is much better than on University Avenue. The fact is that anyone who is going to build downtown will not do it untess they can be assured that they-can have a good deal of parking and it's probably going to be more pazking than if Saint Paui had pazking requirements downtown. Saint Paul has a pub[ic that does not accept tfie use of transit. Saint Paul does not ase it much downtown, and not many people are going to use it to go to the Specialty Offtce Building. What iYs going to take to overcome that is not known. A cfiange in Saint PauPs parking requirements is not going to do it because it's the developers who want the parking. The idea of experiments and the things that Metro Transit is trying to do to increase employers to encourage other modes of transit are good things to see. VI. Compreheusive Planning Committee Commissioner Geisser announced that the next few meetings wou(d begin at 3:30 p.m. There is a large agenda for the next meeting scheduled for Wednesday, September 9, in Room 41 of the City Hall Conference Centec Agenda items inciude the Minneapolis Ptan, the Housin� Plan and the Land Use Plan. • �1��9`� { • VII.

Martha Faust, PED, gave a slide presentation and reviewed the staff report. She stated staff recommends approval of the petition to rezone the property from B-2 to RM-2. In response to Commissioner Wencl, Ms. Fa�st explained that the 129 rooms are the calculated density according to the City's schedule of regulations. Since the proposed project incorporates underground parking, a density bonus was given. Loren Spande of 4515 Oak Chase Road, a member of the Lower Afton Seniors L.L.C. appeared. He stated that the proposed buiiding is to be a three story, 55 and oider buiiding. Upon question of Commissioner Kramer, Mr. Spande stated that the project is fully financed. No one appeared in opposition, and the public hearing was ciosed. Commissioner Faricy moved approval of the staff recommendation and the motion was seconded by Commissioner Wencl.

F. HISTORY/DISCUSSION: There are no previous zoning cases related to this property. G. DISTRICT COUNCIL RECOI�dENDATION: The District 1 Council held a meeting August 11, 1998 at which they voted to support the applicant's request. H. FINDINGS: 1. Holiday Station Stores, Inc. owns the property, and Lower Afton Seniors, LLC holds an option to purchase the property contingent on city approval o£ their rezoning request. Following this report is a copy of site plans for a proposed 57-unit structure that the applicants intend to construct if the request for rezoning is approved. The site plans show a 3-story structure with 42 1-bedroom units, 15 2-bedroom units, an underground garage with 52 spaces, and an at grade parking lot with 20 spaces. The applicants are currently working through the site plan review process for the project with the LIEP office. The site plan submitted for 129 rooms conforms is well below the maximum density permitted on the site according to Chapter 61.101 of the zoning code. • 2. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is in conformance with the Saint Paul • Comprehensive Plan. The land use plan of record (198Q: "A Plan for Land Use") states that '�the city's housing goal is to provide opportunities for every stage o£ a person's life cycle, from childhood to young adult, to £amily, to retired empty nester. To do this, the city must increase the housing stock. The combined ef£ects of rising costs and smaller household sizes wi11 create increased demand for smaller, one and two bedroom dwelling units for both ownership and rental purposes. In addition, transportation-related energy costs and consumption can be reduced by locating the new housing in close proximity to shopping and with good access to transit". The property in question is served by Sus Routes #3 and ,�350 serving downtown St. Paul, Sun Ray shopping center, and Woodbury. The District 1 Plan (1985) provides mixed support for the property in question. It states that it "supports the westward expansion of the Shamrock Plaza commercial area, but only to fill the land currently zoned B-2". The Shamrock Plaza commercial did not expand west to the applicant's property, but a new sma11 commercial use has been developed directly east oE the Shamrock Plaza shoppinq strip, in the city of Maplewood. The District 1 Plan re£ers to the fact in general, rezonings to multi- family densities were not desired, however,it is believed that the statement refers to the issue of rezoning property zoned single family residential to multi-family housing, thereby increasing density. In this case, the rezoning request is to change from commercial to residential. The Plan does state that "the District 1 Council will support additional senior housing opportunities in the District (with • social activities and support services located on-site)". q�'�`� 1 • Zoning File �98-136 Page Three 3. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed and will not have aa adverse impzct on the surrounding area. The area has developed with a diversity of uses: single family, two £amily, and multiple family nousing, commercial and service uses, and open space. The combination of services and amenities in close proximity make the site a desirable location for senior housing. 4. The applicant submitted a su££icient petition signed by two-thirds of the property within one hundred (100) feet of the property to be rezoned (3 parcels eligible, 2 parcels needed, and 2 parcels signed). 5. The intent oP the B-2 zoning district states: "to serve the needs of a consumer population larger than that served by the `Local Business District' and is qenerally characterized by a cluster of establishments generating large volumers of vehicular and pedestrian traffic". The intent of the RM-2 zoning district states: "to provide for more extensive areas of multiple-family residential development as we11 as uses related to the multiple-family residential districts, or uses which serve one-family residential needs and require more extensive sites. The RM-2 district is £urther provided to permit comprehensive development of a multiple-family project so as to establish a balance of population concentration as related to major thoroughfares and transit, and related facilities". • I.

Holiday Station Stores, Inc. owns the properiy, and Lower Afton Seniors, LLC holds an • option to purchase the property contingent on city approval of their rezoning request. The applicant proposes a 57-unit structure if the request for rezoning is approved. The site plans show a 3-story structure with 42 1-bedroom units, 15 2-bedroom units, an underground gazage with 52 spaces, and an at grade pazking lot with 20 spaces. The applicants are currently working through the site plan review process for the project with the LIEP o�ce. The site plan submitted for I29 rooms conforms is weIl betow the maximum densiry permitted on the site according to Chapter 61.101 of the zoning code. 2. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is in conformance with the Saint Paul Comprehensive Plan. The land use plan of record (1980: "A Plan for Land Use") states that "the city's housing goal is to provide opportunities for every stage of a person's life cycle, from childhood to young adult, to family, to retired empty nester. To do this, the city must increase the housing stock. The combined effects of rising costs and smaller household sizes will create increased demand for smaller, one and two bedroom dwelling units foi both ownership and rental purposes. In addition, transportation-related energy costs and consumption can be reduced by locating the new housing in close proximity to shopping and with good access to transit". The properiy in question is served by Bus Routes #3 and #350 serving downtown St. Paul, Sun Ray shoppine mOV �ap�l� `/ dbury. �� Wencl 7 seconded by in favor Unanimous � against �� 1 1� • The District 1 Plan (1985) provides mixed support for the property in question. It states that it "supports the westwazd expansion of the Shamrock Plaza commercial area, but only to fill the land currently zoned B-2". The Shamrock Plaza commercial did not expand west to the applicanYs property, but a new small commercial use has been developed direcily east of the Shamrock Plaza shopping strip, in the city of Maplewood. The District 1 Plan refers to the fact in general, rezonings to multi-family densities were not desired, however, it is believed that the statement refers to the issue of rezoning property zoned single family residential to multi-family housing, thereby increasing density. In this case, the rezoning request is to change from commercial to residential. The Plan does state that "the District 1 Council will support additional senior housing opportunities in the District (with social activities and support services located on-site)". 3. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed and will not have an adverse impact on the surrounding area. The area has developed with a diversity of uses: single family, two family, and multiple family housing, commercial and service uses, and open space. The combination of services and amenities in close proximity make the site a desirable location for senior housing. 4. The applicant submitted a sufficient petition signed by two-thirds of the proper[y within one � hundred (100) feet of the properry to be rezoned (3 pazcels eligible, 2 parcels needed, and 2 pazcels signed). 5. The intent of the B-2 zoning district states: "to serve the needs of a consumer population larger than that served by the `Local Business DistricY and is generally chazacterized by a cluster of establishments generating lazge volumes of vehiculaz and pedestrian traffid'. The intent of the RM-2 zoning district states: "to provide for more extensive azeas of mnitiple- family residential development as well as uses related to the multiple-family residential districts, or uses which serve one-family residential needs and require more ea�tensive sites. The RM-2 district is further provided to permiY comprehensive development of a muitiple-family pro}ect so as to establish a balance of population concentration as related to major thoroughfares and transit, and related facilities". NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Saint Paul Planning Commission, that under the authority of the City's Legislative Code, the application for a Rezoning to allow Application to rezone from B-2 to RM-2. at LOWER AFTON ROAD 201 feet west of Mcknight Road is hereby approved. ►�.I Saint Paui Planaing Commission City Hafl Conference Center 15 TCellogg Boulevard West A meeting of the Planning Commission of the Ciry of Saint Paul was he(d Friday, Augast 28, 1998, at 83d a.m. in the Conference Center of City Halt.

Planning Administrator's Announcements Mr. Ford anaounced that the APA has sent communication about their Audio Trainiag Conference Program. Ftyers are on the tabte oat front. These conferences are set up on the telephone. Registration is possib[e ifthere is enough interest in participating. Piease let Chair Morton or Mr. Ford know if you are interested. An upcoming conference available is cafled "The Character of Community" havin� to do with the heightened interest in cities and the physical quality of communities. • �� L � � q�� At City Council there will be a hearing on September 9, 1998 on the Port Authority's replatting of land on William's Hill for the new plan and a business. But it raises an interesting issue. A clear positive recommendation on the replatting will be difficult to make because iYs in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan because of the ECBD bypass right-of-way. It means that there will probably need to be an amendment to tfie p(an which will need to be approved by the Metropolitan Council which could raise some issues about the overall transportation system. Scenic Minnesota has appealed the decision on the storm dama�ed biltboards on Grand Avenue and in Highland V illage. The City Council is discussing the request of a study of pawn shops, smoke shops and currency exchanges, and the zoning for them. Commissioner Geisser asked if the Planning Commission had not done such a study in the not too distant past. Mr. Ford replied that thece had been a study done on pawn shops, but there is sti(t some concern about the whole cluster of these kinds of uses that come together, and concem about the increase in these uses in some paRs of the city. Chair MortoR refersed to a letter on the table to Gerald SVathmann at Council Research from the Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce regarding billboards. The Chamber asks that the Planning Commission co�duct a survey or public input process specifically for the users of billboards and the hospitality industry to see how they feel about outdoor signage and its usefulness, as well as the aesthetics of them in the communities. � N.

She added that there are community rooms � and some communiTy dining. #98-193 River Town Homes. LLC - Special condition use permit to altow a ciuster developmeat of two units at 435 Idaho Avea�e West (Donna Drammond, 266-6556), Commissioner Wenc( informed commissioners that this special condition use permit will add two town homes to a development that was approved for 28 town homes in October, 1997.

Flvnn - Revocation of a nonconforming use permit (97-056) which allowed a welding shop and residence in a property previous(y occupied by a motorcycle sales�and repair shop at 841 Hudson Rd (Allan Torstenson, 266-6579). Commissioner Wencl explained that the issue of revocation was whether the applicanY had adhered to the conditions that had been placed on the property when the special conditeon use permit was issued. He was notified of the violations in approximately January, February of this year and he told the licensing division that he was not going to comp(y. He appeazed at the Zoning Committee meeting saying that he now understood all of the conditions. MOTION: Conxmissioner A'encl moved denial of the revocation of a nanconforming use permit and revise the nonconforming use permit to require improvements by October 20, 1998. Commissioner Nordin no[ed that she was troubied by some of the wordiag of the conditions. She feels that since he has been delinquent, the conditions should specify that not only that • plans be submitted and approved by a certain date, but the conditions should also specify that a �.�4� � construction be completed by a certain date. Commissioner Kramer noted that the intent of the Zoning Committee was that the work should actually be completed by October 20, 1998. Commissionec Wencl agreed. Mr. Torstenson added that a site p(an needs to be su6mitted to LIEP where stafFwould appcove it. Commissioner Engh expressed that clearer language be used in the resolution. MOTION: Commissioner Gordon moved that the language "be sabmilted jor approval and cossiruction completed by October 20, 1998" be used for both numbers 1 and 2 nf the condi[ions. The mation was seconded by Commissioner Nowlin and carried unanimous/y on a voice vote. The motion on the floor to deny revocation of a nonconforming use permit and revise it to require improvements be completed by October 20, 1998 carried unanimously on a voice vote. #98-175 R& R Books - Nonconforming Use Permit appiication to allow extension of a nonconforming adu(t use at 674 University Avenue (Markha Faust, 266-6572).

The motion on the floor to deny the �equested extension of a nonconforming adu[t use at 674 C7niversity Avenue carried unanimously on a voice vote. Commissioner Wencl read the agenda (7 cases) for the next Zoning Committee meeting on Thursday, September 3, 1998. C(lair MoRon announced that 7oe Chavez has sent a letter of resignation to the Planning Commission; and that Dennis Gervais will be repiacing Joe on.the Zoning Committee. V. Northwest Quadrant Report: Tom Harrea Mr. Harren spent a few minutes expiaining some sta�ng changes that have taken place within PED. Jim O'Leary has become the Executive Director of RiverCenter. As a result of that, there were some staffing needs in the Director's Office that Ms. Wheelock needed to filt. She decided that A1 Lovejoy, team leader of the Southwest Quadrant, wil( become part of the Director's staff with some overall responsi6ilities for coordinating some intergovemmental relationships that PED has with the federal govemment, state government and agencies like the Metropolitan Council. He will continue to have the overall leadership responsibility for the zoning activities within the department. He will also be responsible for the development of the Capital Allocation Plan and Phase II of the MNRRA Plan. Susan Kimberly, team leader for the Southtvest Quadrant will replace Al as team leader for the Southeast Quadrant and the � downtown area. Mr. Harren announced that, on an interim basis, he will be serving as the team leader for the Southwest Quadrant during the time PED is looking for a new team leader; and at the same time, he wil! continue to serve as team leader for Yhe Northwest Quadrant. Mr. Harren then introduced a new staff member, Joel Spoonheim, who has been hired as a planner. Joel is learning about the many things PED is doing in the Northwest Quadrant, and zeroing in on the things that he can be most helpful with in meeting some of PED's needs. Joel is a recent graduate of the Humphry Instit�te and is expected to be a great asset to PED as well as to the Planning Commission. Mr. Harren handed out a progress report of the 1998 priorities for the Northwest Quadrant Team. He drew attention to those priorities that have changed some: - Oakland Village Initially, this was a very ambitious project; it has been scaled back. - University Avenue Opportunities keep popping up; more is happening than was initially Midway expected. Re-development of the bus bam site is major. The Home Developaeent Depot is negotiating for the Lexina on/LJniversiry site. Dale and University may be the site of a community design workshop. - West Midway Parking for the Specialty Building; a parking study is being completed for the rest of this azea. - Great Northern/ Legislators are becoming interested in the development of that area and Central Corridor how it is connected Yo the Phalen Corridor. They aze looking to the City for some guidance in determining the priorities in development along that stretch. - Snel(ing Avenue The Hamline-Midway Community Plan is expected to be compieted Hamline-Midway some time in October and come before the Planning Commission for review. A very good housing strategy has come out of that pracess. Joel Spoonheim will work with the community to develop an action plan for commercial development along Snelling. - Capitol Heights A new project area for the Northwes[ Quadrant. A planning process has begun there to look at what the ppYentials aze for some redevelopment in that area, emphasizing fiousing. A p[an will be compieted some time before the end of the yeac The coordination of housing activities wiih the potential for some commercial developmenTS is key. Commissioner McDonell, referring to the Specialty Buiiding on page 5 of the handout, asked Mr. Harren to help him understand 100 pazking spaces per floor and how that number is determined. Mr. Harren responded that the building is anticipated to be used as office space and so the requirements are 100 parking spaces per floor. Commissioner McDoneli reminded commissioners that the question about Yhe current bus barn site has come up before, and it probably should have been included in previous plans. Given that site's significance, Commissioner McDonell hopes that the Planning Commission will 6e given an opportunity to review and comment on redevelopment possibilities. � � With regard to the Specialty Bui(ding, Commissioner Kramer asked Mr. Harren about the big � a �.�� parcel of land that was to become available through ta�c forfeiture and used for parking. Mr. Harren noted that the City is still negotiating on that piece of property. Commissioner Faricy asked whether there has been positive progress made in the relocation of the bus barn. Mr. Harren reptied that Metropolitan Transit wifi be making a decision on one of the four sites at the end of October. Part of making that decision is dependent upon the Minnesota Department of Transportation's rerouting of Interstate 35E. Commissioner Nowlin noted that he was impressed with the list of projects and commended everyone working on it. In order to stimulate projecu and amact private sector money, he suggested that the City might consider putting down dollar amount ranges for City assistance in connection with troubied or difficult to develop property. Mr. Harren responded that, in some cases, the City does have dotlar figures on how much the ctean-ap of these azeas woutd be. He noted that if such a list wouid 6e put toaether, it would indicate many more resources than are available. As developers express their interests, the City has generalfy relied on state and Metropolitan Council money for the clean-up portions of these areas. Saint Paul has been very successful in tapping those funds. In almost afl cases where the City is looking at major development, there is some clean-up cost associated with the assembly of the site. Commissioner Geisser asked if Mr. Harren had any idea who was going into the Wards site. He answered that he did not. She then asked, referring to the Specialty Bui(ding, why there has been no incentive given to employees, like bus passes or subsidized bus passes, by the employers, especialty since Raymond and University is very transit accessible? She sees this • as a perfect oppoRunity to experiment with this incentive. Commissioner Geisser does not find providing 100 parking spaces per floor encouraging to any type of alternative travel modes. She asked why in this area is it required to have 100 parking spaces per floor while there is no parking requirement in downtown? Mr. Harren replied that he believes that 100 parking spaces per floor is consistent with the current requirement for parking spaces for office space. He noted that developers say that without the adequate parking spaces, they have trouble getting the tenants. While the City may believe that alternative transit might work, the developers are not convinced. Commissioner Nordin suggested that perhaps after the tenant is already in the building, the City could propose a bus package. Mr. Harren responded that as PED is looking at development principles for University Avenue and working with the Midway Chamber of Commerce and neighborhood organizations, PED does talk about creating pedestrian and transit friendly development along University Avenue. Parking does need to be reviewed in that uea even though University Avenue appears to be an ideal place to experiment with aitemative transit. Commissioner Gordon expressed that he, too, was impressed the number of quality projects in the works. With respect to Fairview and [3niversity, he asked if Mr. Harren knew fiow many 6usinesses would be taken out and Fvhether the City is making efforts to accommodate those businesses in getting them to relocate elsewhere in Saint Paul. Mr. Harren answered that there are 6-8 businesses located on that corner and PED has been working with them. There is frustration on the part of the tenants because right now the City is in a period of signing a memorandum on agreement on this project, but the City has not signed a development • agreement with the developer. Until that time, there is really no o�cial thing that can be done as far as relocation. City staff and a consultant has met with the tenants and have actually begun to take them through the steps of the process. In the future, it is hoped that the City can take � steps to be more sensitive about informing tenants of a redevelopment, Commissioner Nordin suggested that Saint Paui tatce advantage ofthe Minnesota Design Team to do design studies in areas considered for redevelopment such as Dale and University. Commissioner Wencl asked whether there has been any discussion about creating indoor tennis courts for the Great NorthemlCentra( Corridor azea? Mr. Harren replied that he did not know. Commissioner Treichel commented that residents around the azea of the Midway Mazket Place and Midway Center are a(ways concerned about the fact that p(ace is not kept as clean as it could be by the current tenants. She suggested that tenants might allocate a little more of their resources to clean-up. Mr. Harren responded that the Midway Cham6er has a project going to help keep sidewa(ks ciean on Universiry Avenue. He said that he wi(I bring it up with the Chamber. Commissioner Duarte asked whether some of the costs incuaed by redevelopment aze chazged to the pubiic under "special assessments." Mr. Harren answered that in most of projects that PED is involded with, there are public funds that ue in some way provided for these deveioprtents; a TIF district, some type of loan, in some cases, and grants. He stated that he did not kno�v whether there were any special assessments charged to the public. Mr. Ford commented further relating to Commissioner Geisser's question about parking and the Specialty Building and University Avenue. Going through the testimony received on the Draft � 90s Plan, there was quite a bit of comment about needing an increase in parking downtown as developmenY proceeds downtown. People felT that is highly inconsistenY with the Transportation Plan which says that we need to diversify our transportation and encourage much more reliance on transit. Mr. Ford doesn't know how Saint Paul is going to get out of this conundrum. Not too long ago, Mr, Ford stated that he answered the criticism from a City Council member about high parking requirements downtown as something that is not promoting transit. Commissioner Geisser is right. Saint Paul does not have parking requirements downtown, but transit downtown is much better than on University Avenue. The fact is that anyone who is going to build downtown will not do it untess they can be assured that they-can have a good deal of parking and it's probably going to be more pazking than if Saint Paui had pazking requirements downtown. Saint Paul has a pub[ic that does not accept tfie use of transit. Saint Paul does not ase it much downtown, and not many people are going to use it to go to the Specialty Offtce Building. What iYs going to take to overcome that is not known. A cfiange in Saint PauPs parking requirements is not going to do it because it's the developers who want the parking. The idea of experiments and the things that Metro Transit is trying to do to increase employers to encourage other modes of transit are good things to see. VI. Compreheusive Planning Committee Commissioner Geisser announced that the next few meetings wou(d begin at 3:30 p.m. There is a large agenda for the next meeting scheduled for Wednesday, September 9, in Room 41 of the City Hall Conference Centec Agenda items inciude the Minneapolis Ptan, the Housin� Plan and the Land Use Plan. • �1��9`� { • VII.

F. HISTORY/DISCUSSION: There are no previous zoning cases related to this property. G. DISTRICT COUNCIL RECOI�dENDATION: The District 1 Council held a meeting August 11, 1998 at which they voted to support the applicant's request. H. FINDINGS: 1. Holiday Station Stores, Inc. owns the property, and Lower Afton Seniors, LLC holds an option to purchase the property contingent on city approval o£ their rezoning request. Following this report is a copy of site plans for a proposed 57-unit structure that the applicants intend to construct if the request for rezoning is approved. The site plans show a 3-story structure with 42 1-bedroom units, 15 2-bedroom units, an underground garage with 52 spaces, and an at grade parking lot with 20 spaces. The applicants are currently working through the site plan review process for the project with the LIEP office. The site plan submitted for 129 rooms conforms is well below the maximum density permitted on the site according to Chapter 61.101 of the zoning code. • 2. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is in conformance with the Saint Paul • Comprehensive Plan. The land use plan of record (198Q: "A Plan for Land Use") states that '�the city's housing goal is to provide opportunities for every stage o£ a person's life cycle, from childhood to young adult, to £amily, to retired empty nester. To do this, the city must increase the housing stock. The combined ef£ects of rising costs and smaller household sizes wi11 create increased demand for smaller, one and two bedroom dwelling units for both ownership and rental purposes. In addition, transportation-related energy costs and consumption can be reduced by locating the new housing in close proximity to shopping and with good access to transit". The property in question is served by Sus Routes #3 and ,�350 serving downtown St. Paul, Sun Ray shopping center, and Woodbury. The District 1 Plan (1985) provides mixed support for the property in question. It states that it "supports the westward expansion of the Shamrock Plaza commercial area, but only to fill the land currently zoned B-2". The Shamrock Plaza commercial did not expand west to the applicant's property, but a new sma11 commercial use has been developed directly east oE the Shamrock Plaza shoppinq strip, in the city of Maplewood. The District 1 Plan re£ers to the fact in general, rezonings to multi- family densities were not desired, however,it is believed that the statement refers to the issue of rezoning property zoned single family residential to multi-family housing, thereby increasing density. In this case, the rezoning request is to change from commercial to residential. The Plan does state that "the District 1 Council will support additional senior housing opportunities in the District (with • social activities and support services located on-site)". q�'�`� 1 • Zoning File �98-136 Page Three 3. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed and will not have aa adverse impzct on the surrounding area. The area has developed with a diversity of uses: single family, two £amily, and multiple family nousing, commercial and service uses, and open space. The combination of services and amenities in close proximity make the site a desirable location for senior housing. 4. The applicant submitted a su££icient petition signed by two-thirds of the property within one hundred (100) feet of the property to be rezoned (3 parcels eligible, 2 parcels needed, and 2 parcels signed). 5. The intent oP the B-2 zoning district states: "to serve the needs of a consumer population larger than that served by the `Local Business District' and is qenerally characterized by a cluster of establishments generating large volumers of vehicular and pedestrian traffic". The intent of the RM-2 zoning district states: "to provide for more extensive areas of multiple-family residential development as we11 as uses related to the multiple-family residential districts, or uses which serve one-family residential needs and require more extensive sites. The RM-2 district is £urther provided to permit comprehensive development of a multiple-family project so as to establish a balance of population concentration as related to major thoroughfares and transit, and related facilities". • I.
