Friends School of Minnesota has apptied to rezone the lot directly north of their existing school building at 1365 Englewood Ave. to construct an addiYion to the building. The addition would include classrooms, a gymnasium, science Iab, and sforage. Grounds would be ]andscaped, and include a parking lot and playground. The school currently enrolls 111 students in grades K- 7 and employs 20 staff (totaling 15 full-fime equivatent positions). An eighth grade class will be added in the fall of 1999. ToYal planned enrollment after construcrion of the addition is 160 studenfs, with 18 futl-time equivalent staff. Constzucdon of the addition is planned to begin anywhere from spring 1999 to fall 2000 depending upon the success of the school's fundraising efforts. 2. Section 60.514(5) of the Zoning Code permits conversion or reuse of non-residentiat „ structures with confomung uses, including expansion of such structure�, subject to special conditions in the OS-1 zoning district. The proposed site for expansion of the Friends School of Minnesota building has the potential of ineeting all of the required conditions retated to: originat construction as a non-residential use; consistency with the comprehensive plan; compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood; required pazking; and a petition signed by two-thirds of properly owners within 100 feet supporting the proposed use. If the rezoning is approved by the City Council, a modification of the moved by Wencl seconded by in favor Unanimous ' �� against �f 9'�39�0 � Zoning File #98-221 Page Two of Resolution school's existing special condition use permit, issued under provisions of Section 60.514(5), will be zequired to incorporate the expanded area. Under the Planning Commission's rules of procedure (Resolution 84-23), authority to approve special condition use permits is delegated to the planning administrator in cases where public hearings have been held in which the Commission has recommended, and the City Council has approved, a rezoning specifically for a special condition use. If the City Council approves this rezoning, the planning administrator will be authorized to modify the Friends School's existing permit, provided it meets all the required conditions. 3. The rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The most relevant references are found in plans currently in drafr form and under review. The Hamline Midway Community Plan; a summary of �vhich is intended to be adopted as part of the comprehensive plan in late 1998, identifies the Friends School as a neighborhood resource that could potentially provide more indoor space for community use (p. 21). The Saint Paul Land Use Plan - Draft for Community Review, supports development of neighborhoods as urban villages, �vith a mixture of land uses that have commercial, civic, and institutional activity embedded within them, not isolated in remote, single-use complexes (p. 21). The Friends School's location fits this definition. * 4. The rezoiung, which is an expansion of the area cunently zoned OS-1, is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed. The property to the north is a semi- institutional use, Juel Fairbanks Chemical DeQendency Services. A 190 unit Public Housing Agency high-rise building is directly east of the school property. The school building addition and playground will serve as a good transition to the single-family and duplex homes to the west. In addition, the school properiy is only one block from both Minnehaha and Hamline Avenues, collector streets with 5,200 and 3,300 vehicles per day respectively. The four buses that serve the school will have good access to the property. 5. The rezoning will not have an adverse impact on adjacent property. The new playground " will be available for children living nearby when school is not in sessioti; providing a recreational opportunity for the neighborhood that is not available in Horton Park, which is a passive park. Also, the parking lot wiii be required to have appropriate landscaping and screening to sofren the visual impact on the residences to the north and west. 6. The applicant has submitted a sufficient petition of two-thirds of the properiy owners within one hundred (100) feet of the property stating support for the rezoning (15 pazcels eligible, 10 required, and 12 signed). � Zoning File #98-221 Page Three of ResoluYion NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Saint Paul Planning Commission that the petition of FRIENbS SCHOOL OF MINNESOTA to rezone property at 1365 ENGLEWOOD AVENLTE, more particularly described as except the south 67 ft. fhe following; south 1/2 of vacated Hubbard Ave. accruing & the west 124 ft. of Lot 2, Block 16 College Place, East Division from a RM-3 zoning classification to an OS-1 zoning classification is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the Cify; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Saint Paul Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the Council of the City of Saint Paui that property located at I365 ENGLEWOOD AVENiTE be rezoned from RM-3 to OS-1 in accordance with the petition for rezoning on file wiTh the Saint Paul planning administrator. � � � � Saint Paul Planning Commission � City Hall Conference Center 15 Kellogg Boulevard `Vest l9 A meeting of the Ptanning Commission of the City of Saint Paul was held Friday, September 25,1998, at 830 a.m. in the Conference Center of City Hall.

Friends School of Minnesota has apptied to rezone the lot directly north of their existing school building at 1365 Englewood Ave. to construct an addiYion to the building. The addition would include classrooms, a gymnasium, science Iab, and sforage. Grounds would be ]andscaped, and include a parking lot and playground. The school currently enrolls 111 students in grades K- 7 and employs 20 staff (totaling 15 full-fime equivatent positions). An eighth grade class will be added in the fall of 1999. ToYal planned enrollment after construcrion of the addition is 160 studenfs, with 18 futl-time equivalent staff. Constzucdon of the addition is planned to begin anywhere from spring 1999 to fall 2000 depending upon the success of the school's fundraising efforts. 2. Section 60.514(5) of the Zoning Code permits conversion or reuse of non-residentiat „ structures with confomung uses, including expansion of such structure�, subject to special conditions in the OS-1 zoning district. The proposed site for expansion of the Friends School of Minnesota building has the potential of ineeting all of the required conditions retated to: originat construction as a non-residential use; consistency with the comprehensive plan; compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood; required pazking; and a petition signed by two-thirds of properly owners within 100 feet supporting the proposed use. If the rezoning is approved by the City Council, a modification of the moved by Wencl seconded by in favor Unanimous ' �� against �f 9'�39�0 � Zoning File #98-221 Page Two of Resolution school's existing special condition use permit, issued under provisions of Section 60.514(5), will be zequired to incorporate the expanded area. Under the Planning Commission's rules of procedure (Resolution 84-23), authority to approve special condition use permits is delegated to the planning administrator in cases where public hearings have been held in which the Commission has recommended, and the City Council has approved, a rezoning specifically for a special condition use. If the City Council approves this rezoning, the planning administrator will be authorized to modify the Friends School's existing permit, provided it meets all the required conditions. 3. The rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The most relevant references are found in plans currently in drafr form and under review. The Hamline Midway Community Plan; a summary of �vhich is intended to be adopted as part of the comprehensive plan in late 1998, identifies the Friends School as a neighborhood resource that could potentially provide more indoor space for community use (p. 21). The Saint Paul Land Use Plan - Draft for Community Review, supports development of neighborhoods as urban villages, �vith a mixture of land uses that have commercial, civic, and institutional activity embedded within them, not isolated in remote, single-use complexes (p. 21). The Friends School's location fits this definition. * 4. The rezoiung, which is an expansion of the area cunently zoned OS-1, is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed. The property to the north is a semi- institutional use, Juel Fairbanks Chemical DeQendency Services. A 190 unit Public Housing Agency high-rise building is directly east of the school property. The school building addition and playground will serve as a good transition to the single-family and duplex homes to the west. In addition, the school properiy is only one block from both Minnehaha and Hamline Avenues, collector streets with 5,200 and 3,300 vehicles per day respectively. The four buses that serve the school will have good access to the property. 5. The rezoning will not have an adverse impact on adjacent property. The new playground " will be available for children living nearby when school is not in sessioti; providing a recreational opportunity for the neighborhood that is not available in Horton Park, which is a passive park. Also, the parking lot wiii be required to have appropriate landscaping and screening to sofren the visual impact on the residences to the north and west. 6. The applicant has submitted a sufficient petition of two-thirds of the properiy owners within one hundred (100) feet of the property stating support for the rezoning (15 pazcels eligible, 10 required, and 12 signed). � Zoning File #98-221 Page Three of ResoluYion NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Saint Paul Planning Commission that the petition of FRIENbS SCHOOL OF MINNESOTA to rezone property at 1365 ENGLEWOOD AVENLTE, more particularly described as except the south 67 ft. fhe following; south 1/2 of vacated Hubbard Ave. accruing & the west 124 ft. of Lot 2, Block 16 College Place, East Division from a RM-3 zoning classification to an OS-1 zoning classification is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the Cify; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Saint Paul Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the Council of the City of Saint Paui that property located at I365 ENGLEWOOD AVENiTE be rezoned from RM-3 to OS-1 in accordance with the petition for rezoning on file wiTh the Saint Paul planning administrator. � � � � Saint Paul Planning Commission � City Hall Conference Center 15 Kellogg Boulevard `Vest l9 A meeting of the Ptanning Commission of the City of Saint Paul was held Friday, September 25,1998, at 830 a.m. in the Conference Center of City Hall.

Sincerely, �vr+✓�C'� G' �v Donna Arummond City Planner i Attachments =< cc: City Councilmembers city .of saint paul pianning commissian resolution file number 98-64 �' te September 25, 1998 WHEREAS, FRIENDS SCHOOL OF MIN�IESOTA, File # 98-22I has petitioned to rezone property at 1365 Euglewood Avenue located on the southeast comer of vacated Hubbazd Avenue and North Albert Street from RM-3 (high-density multi-family residentiat} to OS-1 (office- service); and �VHEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission on September 17, 1998, held a :��public hearing at which ail persons present were given an oppomuuty fo be heazd pursuant fo -' said application in accordance with the requirements of Section 64.400 of the Saint Paul Legistative Code; and _WHEREAS, ihe 5aint Paul Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to its Zoning Committee at the public heazing as substantially reflected in the minutes, made the following fcndings of fact: 1. Friends School of Minnesota has apptied to rezone the lot directly north of their existing school building at 1365 Englewood Ave. to construct an addiYion to the building. The addition would include classrooms, a gymnasium, science Iab, and sforage. Grounds would be ]andscaped, and include a parking lot and playground. The school currently enrolls 111 students in grades K- 7 and employs 20 staff (totaling 15 full-fime equivatent positions). An eighth grade class will be added in the fall of 1999. ToYal planned enrollment after construcrion of the addition is 160 studenfs, with 18 futl-time equivalent staff. Constzucdon of the addition is planned to begin anywhere from spring 1999 to fall 2000 depending upon the success of the school's fundraising efforts. 2. Section 60.514(5) of the Zoning Code permits conversion or reuse of non-residentiat „ structures with confomung uses, including expansion of such structure�, subject to special conditions in the OS-1 zoning district. The proposed site for expansion of the Friends School of Minnesota building has the potential of ineeting all of the required conditions retated to: originat construction as a non-residential use; consistency with the comprehensive plan; compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood; required pazking; and a petition signed by two-thirds of properly owners within 100 feet supporting the proposed use. If the rezoning is approved by the City Council, a modification of the moved by Wencl seconded by in favor Unanimous ' �� against �f 9'�39�0 � Zoning File #98-221 Page Two of Resolution school's existing special condition use permit, issued under provisions of Section 60.514(5), will be zequired to incorporate the expanded area. Under the Planning Commission's rules of procedure (Resolution 84-23), authority to approve special condition use permits is delegated to the planning administrator in cases where public hearings have been held in which the Commission has recommended, and the City Council has approved, a rezoning specifically for a special condition use. If the City Council approves this rezoning, the planning administrator will be authorized to modify the Friends School's existing permit, provided it meets all the required conditions. 3. The rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The most relevant references are found in plans currently in drafr form and under review. The Hamline Midway Community Plan; a summary of �vhich is intended to be adopted as part of the comprehensive plan in late 1998, identifies the Friends School as a neighborhood resource that could potentially provide more indoor space for community use (p. 21). The Saint Paul Land Use Plan - Draft for Community Review, supports development of neighborhoods as urban villages, �vith a mixture of land uses that have commercial, civic, and institutional activity embedded within them, not isolated in remote, single-use complexes (p. 21). The Friends School's location fits this definition. * 4. The rezoiung, which is an expansion of the area cunently zoned OS-1, is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed. The property to the north is a semi- institutional use, Juel Fairbanks Chemical DeQendency Services. A 190 unit Public Housing Agency high-rise building is directly east of the school property. The school building addition and playground will serve as a good transition to the single-family and duplex homes to the west. In addition, the school properiy is only one block from both Minnehaha and Hamline Avenues, collector streets with 5,200 and 3,300 vehicles per day respectively. The four buses that serve the school will have good access to the property. 5. The rezoning will not have an adverse impact on adjacent property. The new playground " will be available for children living nearby when school is not in sessioti; providing a recreational opportunity for the neighborhood that is not available in Horton Park, which is a passive park. Also, the parking lot wiii be required to have appropriate landscaping and screening to sofren the visual impact on the residences to the north and west. 6. The applicant has submitted a sufficient petition of two-thirds of the properiy owners within one hundred (100) feet of the property stating support for the rezoning (15 pazcels eligible, 10 required, and 12 signed). � Zoning File #98-221 Page Three of ResoluYion NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Saint Paul Planning Commission that the petition of FRIENbS SCHOOL OF MINNESOTA to rezone property at 1365 ENGLEWOOD AVENLTE, more particularly described as except the south 67 ft. fhe following; south 1/2 of vacated Hubbard Ave. accruing & the west 124 ft. of Lot 2, Block 16 College Place, East Division from a RM-3 zoning classification to an OS-1 zoning classification is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the Cify; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Saint Paul Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the Council of the City of Saint Paui that property located at I365 ENGLEWOOD AVENiTE be rezoned from RM-3 to OS-1 in accordance with the petition for rezoning on file wiTh the Saint Paul planning administrator. � � � � Saint Paul Planning Commission � City Hall Conference Center 15 Kellogg Boulevard `Vest l9 A meeting of the Ptanning Commission of the City of Saint Paul was held Friday, September 25,1998, at 830 a.m. in the Conference Center of City Hall.

Ms. Drummond stated staff recommended approvai of the rezoning. She further stated that the Hamiine Midway Coalition voted unanimousiy to support the rezoning. � Upon question of Commissioner Gordon, Ms. Drummond explained that the Friends School of Minnesota is the same one that had appiied for and received a STAR grant. Mark Niedermier, 85 Clarence Avenue SE, appeared. Mr. Niedermier stated that he has been the head of the school for eight years. He further stated that currently there are 111 students at the school, and their board's strategic plan expects that they will grow to a maximum student size of 160 kindergarten through grade 8 students. Mr. Niedermier expiained that the schoo'fs mission is to serve a racially, economically, and religiously diverse student body. Their plans include adding primarily a gymnasium, 2 additionai classrooms, a science lab, some general,t�se space, elevator, appropriate storage and hailways. He a(so stated that the plans include adding a new parking lot and the p{ayground, funded in part by the STAR Program. It is intended to be a joint schooi community playground with open and ready access to the community. Mr. Dale Freeman, 819 North Hamiine Avenue appeared. Mr. Freeman expressed his concem regarding the vacated iiubbard street, and stated his zoning concerns. Mr. Niedermier reappeared, affirming the schooi's interest in being a good neighbor.

The planning commission may, from time to time, review district boundary lines to determine if, pursuant to state laws, such district boundary lines should be changed." PURPOSE; Rezoning from RM-3 (high-density multi-family zesidential) to OS-1 (office-service) to a11ow Friends School of Minnesota to build an addition to its current school building. PP.RCEL SzZE: The property to be rezoned has 155 feet of frontaqe on N. Albert St. and is 124 ft. deep for a total area of 19,220 sq. ft. C. EXISTI23G LAND tSSE: Vacant. D. Si3RROUNDZNG LA13P USE: North: A group home for chemical dependency and one and two-family homes beyond in RM-3 and RT-1 zones. East: A 190 unit Public Housing Agency high-rise in a RM-3 zone. South: Existing Friends school building in an OS-1 zone and Horton Park beyond in a RT-1 zone. Section 64.400(b) states in part that "an amendment to the zoning code may be initiated by the council, the planning commission or by petition of the owners of sixty-seven (67) percent of the area of the property to be rezoned." ._ Zoning File #48-221 Page Two F. HZSTORY/DISCVSSION: There are no previous zoning cases concerning the property to he rezoned. However, the property directly soath, which contains the existing Friends School of Minnesota building, received a special condition use permit in October 1996 to allow conversion of an office building to a school. At the tiiae that permit was appraved, the school had indicated its intention to expand onto its property on the north, and the need to have this property rezoned when that occurred was noted in the staff report. G H DISTRICT COUNCIL RECObP2ENDATION: The Hamline Midway Coal.ition had not taken a position on the rezoning at the time the staff report was written. FINDINGS: 1. Friends School of Minnesota has applied to rezone the lot directly north of their existing school building at 1365 Englewood Ave. to constzuct an addition to the building. The addition would inclufle classrooms, a gymnasium, science lab, and storage. Grounds would be landscaped, and include a parking lot and playground. The school currently enrolls 111 students in grades K- 7 and employs 20 staff (totaling 15 full-time equivalent positions). An eighth grade class wi11 be added in the fall of 1999. Total planned enrollment after construction of the addition is 160 students, with 18 full-time equivalent staff. Construction of the addition is planned to begin anywhere from spring 1999 to fa11 2000 depending upon the success of the school's fundraising efforts. 2. Section 60.514(5) of the Zoning Code peimits conversion or reuse of non- residential stxuctures with confozming uses, including expansion of such structures, subject to special conditions in the OS-1 zoning district. The proposed site for expansion of the Friends School of Minnesota building has the potential of ineeting all of the required conditions related to: original construction as a non-residential use; consistency with the comprehensive plan; compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood; required parking; and a petition signed by two-thirds of property owners within 100 feet supporting the proposed use. If the rezoning is approved by the City Council, a modification of the school's existing special condition use permit, issued under provisions of Section 60.514(5), will be required to incorporate the expanded area. , Under the Planning Commission's rules of procedure (Resolution 84-23), authority to approve special condition use permits is de].`egated to the planning administrator in cases where public hearings have been held in which the Commission has recommended, and the City Council has approved, a rezoning specifically for a special condition use. If the City Council appzoves this rezoning, the planning administrator wi11 be authorized to modify the Eriends $chool's existing permit, provided it meets al1 the required conditions. 3. The rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The most zelevant zeferences are found in plans currently in draft form and under review. The Hamline Midway Community Plan, a summary of which is intended to be adopted as part of the comprehensive plan in late 1998, identifies the Friends School as a neighborhood resource that could potentially provide more indoor space for community use (-p. 21).� The Saint Paul land Use Plan - Draft for Community Review, supports development o£ neighborhoods as urban villages, with a mixture of land s � � 49�3G� � Zoning File �98-221 Page Three uses that have commercial, civic, and institutional activity embedd=d within them, not isolated in remote, single-use complexes (p. 21). The Friends School's location fits this definition. 4. The rezoning, which is an expansion of the area currently zoned OS-1, is consistent and compatible with the way the area has developed. The property to the north is a semi-institutional use, Juel Fairbanks Chemical Dependency Services. A 190 unit Public Aousing Agency high- rise building is directly east of the school propezty. The school building addition and playground will serve as a good transition to the single-family and duplex homes to the west. In addition, the school property is only one block from both Minnehaha and Hamline Avenues, collector streets with 5,200 and 3,300 vehicles per day respectively. The four buses that serve the school will have good access to the property. 5. The rezoning will not have an adverse impact on adjacent property. The new playground will be available for children living nearby when school is not in session, providing a recreational opportunity for the neighborhood that is not available in Horton Park, which is a passive park. A1so,,the parking lot will be zequired to have appropriate landscaping and screening to soften the visual impact on the residences to the north and west. 6. The applicant has submitted a sufficient petition of two-thirds of the � property owners within one hundred (100) feet o£ the property stating support for the rezoning (15 parcels eligible, 10 required, and 10 signed). 2. STAFF RECOt�NDATIOx: Based on findings 1 through 6, staff zecommends appzoval of the proposed rezoning from RM-3 to OS-1 to allow construction of an addition, parking lot and playground £or the Friends School of Minnesota. � PET(T(ON TO AMEND THE ZONING CQDE Departmrent oj Planning and Economic Development Zaning Section II00 City Ha1!
