� pianning commission resolution
fife number �1-63
date Ju� z�, 200�
WHEREAS, Richard Harnden, Fiie #01-211-125, has applied for a Rezoning from S-2 to B-3
under the provisions of §64.400 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code for property located at 459
Toronto, legally described as Ex W 50 ft; Lot 1 and all of Lots 28, 29 and 30, Block 31,
Thomas Daly's Subdivision of Blocks 18 and 31 of Stinson, Brown and Ramsey's Addition; and
WHEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission, on July 19, 2001, held a
public hearing at which all persons present were given an opportunity to be heard pursuant to
said appiication in accordance with the requirements of §64.300 of the Saint Paul Legislative
Code; and �
WHEREAS, the Saint Paul Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to its
Zoning Committee at the public hearing, as substantially reflected in the minutes, made the
following findings of fact:
1. The applicant proposes to expand an existing auto repair business he recently
purchased to incorporate the indoor display and sale of a minimal number of cars. Any
� outdoor display or sales would require a speciai condition use permit.
2. Rezoning the property is unlikely to significantly affect the development or improvement
of surrounding properties. The property is within a wedge ofi land tucked between the
Minnesota Brewing Company and a major industrial parcel that is home to ADM,
railroad-owned property used to transfer cars to semi-trucks for delivery, and several
auto-related uses. The surrounding zoning is B-2 and I-2.
3. The proposed rezoning is not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. In the long
term, this area is likely to be redeveloped as new more intensive uses replace the aging
industrial uses that surround it. Randolph is slated as a key stop in pians for various
transit alternatives in the Riverview Corridor. A B-3 zoning district is consistent with the
intensity of deve4opment one might expect at such a node. lndeed, West Seventh
Street, while zoned largely B-2, includes a significant number of B-3 nodes.

V. Comprehensive Planning Committee
Re¢ion31 Bluenrint Undate: Process and Issues -(John Kari, Metropolitan Council)
Mr. John Kari, Metropolitan Council, gave a power point presentation on the Regional
Blueprint. Mr. Kari talked about potential metro policies and actions that could support fully
developed communities with redevelopment financing, housing, transportation, polluted sites,
etc.
Mr. Kari stated the Metropolitan Council is beginning to look to the year 2030 and how to use
regional investments in transit, highways, regional parks, sewer systems and airports to help
facititate a balanced system that works for both the cities and older suburbs and the new growing
suburbs. He stated they have done a series of ineetings on regional growth scenarios using
Smart Growth Workshops; some were broader regional meetings and some were specific
opportunity sites. Mr. Kari talked about development on the edge of communities and how that
relates to transportation, affordable housing, and jobs. �
Mr. Kari said that major issues for the Regional Blueprint are mobility, housing choices, livable
communities, and natural resoutce preservation. He stated a major focus of this Council is how
do we really help central city and older suburban neighborhoods and economic areas to stay
vital.
Mr. Kari stated that in this region we spend about one million dollars a day on infrastructure,
`" whether for sewers, highways, parks, or transit. The Regional Blueprint includes LRT,
busways, and commuter rail as well as highway improvements. They arz lookin� at how they
leverage both regiona an oca m ras ruc �
decisions that will reinforce a good transit system.
VI. Neighborhood and Current Planning Conunittee
Harriet Island/District del Sol Smart Gro��'th Onnortunitv Site_ - Brief oven�iew of
prooram and presentation of alternatives. (Lucy Thompson, 651/266-6575)
Ms. Lucy Thompson gave a brief presentation on the Harriet Island/District del Sol site.
Ms. Thompson stated that in Jurre of 2000 the City was invite� by the 2.4euopolitan,Council to
participate in the Smart Growth Twin Cities Program. The intention of thz program was to
identify "Opportunity Sites" tiuoughout the seven county metropolirr.n a*za that can demonstrate
�
o�_�k�
what Smart Growth looks like on the ground. In the Met Council's eyes, "Opportunity Sites"
� are new forms of urban development that make use of existing investments in transportation and
odier infrastructure and that really try to get better at the relationship between land use and
transportation. Six participants were selected, and will receive essentially free planning and
urban design assistance from Calthorpe Associates, Berkeley, California to conduct a citizen
�vorkshop to generate land use al[ernatives for the site. The final product will be an illustrated
master plan, a development program, urban design guidelines, financing program, staging plan,
and a before-and-afrer photo simulations that can show existin� conditions and future conditions
with new planning principles in place.
Ms. Thompson referred to some of the Smart Growth Twin Cities project objectives: (1) Relate
development/redevelopment with transit; (2) Intensify land use through appropriate densities and
mixing of uses, including housing, to support transit use, walking, biking and community
interaction; (3) Connect housing and areas of employment growth; and (4) Provide an integrated
mix of housing types and price ranges within a development. These are the kinds of principles
tha[ have been incorporated into the Mixed Use Urban Village work, the zoning work, and all of
the urban design plans, Master Plans that are implementing new urbanism principles of mixing ,
land use, creating walkable neighborhoods, connecting housing and jobs, and having a range of
housing types within a neighborhood. PED worked with the West Side Citizens Organization,
Riverview Economic Development Association, and the Neighborhood Development Alliance to
prepare an application to the Met Council for the Harriet Island/District del Sol Site.
Ms. Thompson stated it was a good application because it can address planning, design and
Smart Growth issues on two kinds of sites on the West Side. Part of the site is the Harriet Island
site, the light industrial uses behind Harriet Island generally west of �Vabasha. Once Harriet
� Island is completed and the West Side Flats Master Plan, there will a lot of pressure for the area
behind Harriet Island to change. The other part of the site is the District del Sol area, which is
the Riverview Economic Development Association's name for their corridor revitalization
program for Concord, Robert, and Wabasha starting at the base of the bluff and heading up to
the upper part of the West Side. The opportunity that that presented to us is to look at how we
apply smart growth to these principles on small, incremental, in-fili sites in a built-up
neighborhood. So, we have on the Flats the potential for a large redevelopment site, and up on
the bluff we have the opportunity for applying these principles on smaller sites.
Ms. Thompson stated there was a community workshop in late May 2000 with 75 people
attending. There is a Task Force comprised of community partners, Met Council staff, and Ciry
staff working with the Cal[hocpe team. At a debriefing session after the workshop, ideas fell
into three categories: (1) looking at an alternative for redevelopment on these sites that is more
residential intensive; (2) one diat is more employment intensive; and (3) one that includes a
Saints ballpark. An open house was held in late June, and a public meeting will be held in the
middle of August to do a more formal presentation of the alteri�atives.
Ms. Thompson explained the key elements of all three of the altecnatives. The Neighborhood
and Current Planning Committee will bring back a preferred alternative to the Commission in
late Fall.
Commissioner Alton asked Ms. Tliompson �ahether the alternatives are consistent with the City's
Compiehensive Plan. D1s. Thompson stated tliat ihe residentiai-in�ensive �nd employment-
r1
LJ
intensive alternatives are generally consistent with both the Comprehensive Plan and Saint Paul
on the Mississippi Development Framework. The Saints ballpark was not envisioned in these
documents. •
Hillcrest Villaae Smart Growth Opportunitv Site - Presentation of alternatives from May 24,
2001- Open House. (Patricia James, 651/266-6639)
Commissioner Kramer gave a presentation on the Hillcrest Villa�e Smart Growth Site. He
stated there were a couple of very well-atrended community meetings out of which the planning
consultants developed two alternatives A and B. Alternative B tends ro be more intensive in
terms of bo[h housing (only about 70 units difference between Alternative A& B) and
commercial. The planning area straddles the Maplewood-Saint Paul boundary, so he is not sure
how implementation wiil work. The largest block is located in Maplewood and the plan shows
intensive development there that would add a lot of housing units and a grocery store in
Alternative B. As you move into Saint Paul the emphasis has been on the comers; at the
southwes[ corner of Larpenteur and White Bear Avenue, is a commercial redevelopment which
may or may not include housing. There was a lot of discussion about the blocks in the Hillcrest
Shopping Center south of Idaho Avenue on the east side of White Bear Avenue and both plans
call for redevelopment of that block. Commissioner Kramer stated [hat during the neighborhood
meetings there was a strong preference for Alternative A. Both alternatives show more
greening, pedestrian access, services that Fit the neighborhood, and additional residential units
would bolster those services and stores.
Mr, Soderholm asked Commissioner Kramer about the Riverview Busway comin� through this
area. Commissioner Kramer stated there is a transit hub on Idaho Avenue that could be used.
Or there was also talk about extending California Avenue across White Bear Avenue. Maybe
buses would lay over at Aldrich Arena so there wouldn't be buses idling on White Bear Avenue. �
Commissioner Johnson thanked Commissioner Kramer and Patricia James for their work on this
project, and Commissioner Kramer thanked the Planning Commission members that attended
some of the community meetings.
VII. Amendinent to Tax Increment Fivancing District No 1(North Ouadranfl - adopt resolution
finding amendment consistent with Comprehensive Plan. (Allen Carlson, 651/266-6616)
Mr. Allen Cadson state t iat t ie ousm� an �
proposing expand the district boundaries of whaYs called the Tax Increment Financing District
#1 (North Quadrant). The original boundaries of the district were Seventh, Eighth, Wacouta
and Sibley Streets. Mr. Carlson stated the City is proposing to expand the boundaries to include
the block which is bounded by Eighth, Ninth, Sibley, and Temperance Streets. The reason for
the expansion is to allow Tax Increments to assist partially in the financin� the Phase 2
Development, which will be a 122-unit, 5-story, rental building, and a 38 unit, 4-story, for-sale

APPLICANT: Richard Hamden HEARING DATE: July 19, 2001
TYPE OF APPLICATION: Rezoning

4. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Ex w 50 ft; Lot 1 and all of Lots 28, 29 and 30, Block 31, Thomas

PURPOSE: Rezone from B-2 to B-3 to allow mdoor auto sales.
PARCEL SIZE: 15,050 square feet
EXISTING LAND USE: Auto repair
SURROUNDING LAND USE:
North: Single family residence, zoned B-2
South: Light industrial, zoned I-2
East: Neighborhood commerciaUoffice, zoned B-2
West: Randolph Street, industrial, zoned B-2 and I-2
ZONING CODE CITATION: Sec. 64.400 outlines the process whereby properry may be
rezoned.
HISTORY/DISCUSSION: None.
DISTRICT COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION: The West Seventh/Fort Road Federarion had
made no recommendation on the application by the time this staff report was prepared.
FINDINGS:
The applicant proposes to expand an existing auto repair business he recently purchased to
incorporate the indoor display and sale of a minimal number of cars. Any outdoor display
or sales would require a special condition use pernut.
�
2. Rezoning the property is unlikely to significantly affect the development or nnprovement of
surrounding properties. The properry is within a wedge of land tucked between the
Zoning File #01-211-125
Page hvo
Minnesota Brewing Company and a major industrial pazcel that is home to ADM, .
railroad-owned property used to transfer cars to semi-trucks for delivery, and several auto-
related uses. The surronnding zoning is B-2 and f-2.
3. The proposed rezoning is not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. In the long term,
fhis azea is likely to be redeveloped as new more intensive uses replace the aging industrial
uses that surround it. Randolph is siated as a key stop in plans for varioas transit
altematives in the Riverview Comdor. A B3 zoning district is consiste� with the
urtensity of development one might expect at such a node. Indeed, West Seventh Street,
while zoned largely B-2, includes a significant number of B-3 nodes.
4. Sea 64.400 of the zoning code requires t6at an application for rezoning be accompanied
by a consent petition of two-thirds of the property owners within 100 feet of the property
to be rezoned. Ten signatures were required. Ten were received.
STAFF RECQMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the rezoning of 459 Toroirto from B-2 to B-3.

� pianning commission resolution
fife number �1-63
date Ju� z�, 200�
WHEREAS, Richard Harnden, Fiie #01-211-125, has applied for a Rezoning from S-2 to B-3
under the provisions of §64.400 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code for property located at 459
Toronto, legally described as Ex W 50 ft; Lot 1 and all of Lots 28, 29 and 30, Block 31,
Thomas Daly's Subdivision of Blocks 18 and 31 of Stinson, Brown and Ramsey's Addition; and
WHEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission, on July 19, 2001, held a
public hearing at which all persons present were given an opportunity to be heard pursuant to
said appiication in accordance with the requirements of §64.300 of the Saint Paul Legislative
Code; and �
WHEREAS, the Saint Paul Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to its
Zoning Committee at the public hearing, as substantially reflected in the minutes, made the
following findings of fact:
1. The applicant proposes to expand an existing auto repair business he recently
purchased to incorporate the indoor display and sale of a minimal number of cars. Any
� outdoor display or sales would require a speciai condition use permit.
2. Rezoning the property is unlikely to significantly affect the development or improvement
of surrounding properties. The property is within a wedge ofi land tucked between the
Minnesota Brewing Company and a major industrial parcel that is home to ADM,
railroad-owned property used to transfer cars to semi-trucks for delivery, and several
auto-related uses. The surrounding zoning is B-2 and I-2.
3. The proposed rezoning is not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. In the long
term, this area is likely to be redeveloped as new more intensive uses replace the aging
industrial uses that surround it. Randolph is slated as a key stop in pians for various
transit alternatives in the Riverview Corridor. A B-3 zoning district is consistent with the
intensity of deve4opment one might expect at such a node. lndeed, West Seventh
Street, while zoned largely B-2, includes a significant number of B-3 nodes.

V. Comprehensive Planning Committee
Re¢ion31 Bluenrint Undate: Process and Issues -(John Kari, Metropolitan Council)
Mr. John Kari, Metropolitan Council, gave a power point presentation on the Regional
Blueprint. Mr. Kari talked about potential metro policies and actions that could support fully
developed communities with redevelopment financing, housing, transportation, polluted sites,
etc.
Mr. Kari stated the Metropolitan Council is beginning to look to the year 2030 and how to use
regional investments in transit, highways, regional parks, sewer systems and airports to help
facititate a balanced system that works for both the cities and older suburbs and the new growing
suburbs. He stated they have done a series of ineetings on regional growth scenarios using
Smart Growth Workshops; some were broader regional meetings and some were specific
opportunity sites. Mr. Kari talked about development on the edge of communities and how that
relates to transportation, affordable housing, and jobs. �
Mr. Kari said that major issues for the Regional Blueprint are mobility, housing choices, livable
communities, and natural resoutce preservation. He stated a major focus of this Council is how
do we really help central city and older suburban neighborhoods and economic areas to stay
vital.
Mr. Kari stated that in this region we spend about one million dollars a day on infrastructure,
`" whether for sewers, highways, parks, or transit. The Regional Blueprint includes LRT,
busways, and commuter rail as well as highway improvements. They arz lookin� at how they
leverage both regiona an oca m ras ruc �
decisions that will reinforce a good transit system.
VI. Neighborhood and Current Planning Conunittee
Harriet Island/District del Sol Smart Gro��'th Onnortunitv Site_ - Brief oven�iew of
prooram and presentation of alternatives. (Lucy Thompson, 651/266-6575)
Ms. Lucy Thompson gave a brief presentation on the Harriet Island/District del Sol site.
Ms. Thompson stated that in Jurre of 2000 the City was invite� by the 2.4euopolitan,Council to
participate in the Smart Growth Twin Cities Program. The intention of thz program was to
identify "Opportunity Sites" tiuoughout the seven county metropolirr.n a*za that can demonstrate
�
o�_�k�
what Smart Growth looks like on the ground. In the Met Council's eyes, "Opportunity Sites"
� are new forms of urban development that make use of existing investments in transportation and
odier infrastructure and that really try to get better at the relationship between land use and
transportation. Six participants were selected, and will receive essentially free planning and
urban design assistance from Calthorpe Associates, Berkeley, California to conduct a citizen
�vorkshop to generate land use al[ernatives for the site. The final product will be an illustrated
master plan, a development program, urban design guidelines, financing program, staging plan,
and a before-and-afrer photo simulations that can show existin� conditions and future conditions
with new planning principles in place.
Ms. Thompson referred to some of the Smart Growth Twin Cities project objectives: (1) Relate
development/redevelopment with transit; (2) Intensify land use through appropriate densities and
mixing of uses, including housing, to support transit use, walking, biking and community
interaction; (3) Connect housing and areas of employment growth; and (4) Provide an integrated
mix of housing types and price ranges within a development. These are the kinds of principles
tha[ have been incorporated into the Mixed Use Urban Village work, the zoning work, and all of
the urban design plans, Master Plans that are implementing new urbanism principles of mixing ,
land use, creating walkable neighborhoods, connecting housing and jobs, and having a range of
housing types within a neighborhood. PED worked with the West Side Citizens Organization,
Riverview Economic Development Association, and the Neighborhood Development Alliance to
prepare an application to the Met Council for the Harriet Island/District del Sol Site.
Ms. Thompson stated it was a good application because it can address planning, design and
Smart Growth issues on two kinds of sites on the West Side. Part of the site is the Harriet Island
site, the light industrial uses behind Harriet Island generally west of �Vabasha. Once Harriet
� Island is completed and the West Side Flats Master Plan, there will a lot of pressure for the area
behind Harriet Island to change. The other part of the site is the District del Sol area, which is
the Riverview Economic Development Association's name for their corridor revitalization
program for Concord, Robert, and Wabasha starting at the base of the bluff and heading up to
the upper part of the West Side. The opportunity that that presented to us is to look at how we
apply smart growth to these principles on small, incremental, in-fili sites in a built-up
neighborhood. So, we have on the Flats the potential for a large redevelopment site, and up on
the bluff we have the opportunity for applying these principles on smaller sites.
Ms. Thompson stated there was a community workshop in late May 2000 with 75 people
attending. There is a Task Force comprised of community partners, Met Council staff, and Ciry
staff working with the Cal[hocpe team. At a debriefing session after the workshop, ideas fell
into three categories: (1) looking at an alternative for redevelopment on these sites that is more
residential intensive; (2) one diat is more employment intensive; and (3) one that includes a
Saints ballpark. An open house was held in late June, and a public meeting will be held in the
middle of August to do a more formal presentation of the alteri�atives.
Ms. Thompson explained the key elements of all three of the altecnatives. The Neighborhood
and Current Planning Committee will bring back a preferred alternative to the Commission in
late Fall.
Commissioner Alton asked Ms. Tliompson �ahether the alternatives are consistent with the City's
Compiehensive Plan. D1s. Thompson stated tliat ihe residentiai-in�ensive �nd employment-
r1
LJ
intensive alternatives are generally consistent with both the Comprehensive Plan and Saint Paul
on the Mississippi Development Framework. The Saints ballpark was not envisioned in these
documents. •
Hillcrest Villaae Smart Growth Opportunitv Site - Presentation of alternatives from May 24,
2001- Open House. (Patricia James, 651/266-6639)
Commissioner Kramer gave a presentation on the Hillcrest Villa�e Smart Growth Site. He
stated there were a couple of very well-atrended community meetings out of which the planning
consultants developed two alternatives A and B. Alternative B tends ro be more intensive in
terms of bo[h housing (only about 70 units difference between Alternative A& B) and
commercial. The planning area straddles the Maplewood-Saint Paul boundary, so he is not sure
how implementation wiil work. The largest block is located in Maplewood and the plan shows
intensive development there that would add a lot of housing units and a grocery store in
Alternative B. As you move into Saint Paul the emphasis has been on the comers; at the
southwes[ corner of Larpenteur and White Bear Avenue, is a commercial redevelopment which
may or may not include housing. There was a lot of discussion about the blocks in the Hillcrest
Shopping Center south of Idaho Avenue on the east side of White Bear Avenue and both plans
call for redevelopment of that block. Commissioner Kramer stated [hat during the neighborhood
meetings there was a strong preference for Alternative A. Both alternatives show more
greening, pedestrian access, services that Fit the neighborhood, and additional residential units
would bolster those services and stores.
Mr, Soderholm asked Commissioner Kramer about the Riverview Busway comin� through this
area. Commissioner Kramer stated there is a transit hub on Idaho Avenue that could be used.
Or there was also talk about extending California Avenue across White Bear Avenue. Maybe
buses would lay over at Aldrich Arena so there wouldn't be buses idling on White Bear Avenue. �
Commissioner Johnson thanked Commissioner Kramer and Patricia James for their work on this
project, and Commissioner Kramer thanked the Planning Commission members that attended
some of the community meetings.

PURPOSE: Rezone from B-2 to B-3 to allow mdoor auto sales.
PARCEL SIZE: 15,050 square feet
EXISTING LAND USE: Auto repair
SURROUNDING LAND USE:
North: Single family residence, zoned B-2
South: Light industrial, zoned I-2
East: Neighborhood commerciaUoffice, zoned B-2
West: Randolph Street, industrial, zoned B-2 and I-2
ZONING CODE CITATION: Sec. 64.400 outlines the process whereby properry may be
rezoned.
HISTORY/DISCUSSION: None.
DISTRICT COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION: The West Seventh/Fort Road Federarion had
made no recommendation on the application by the time this staff report was prepared.
FINDINGS:
The applicant proposes to expand an existing auto repair business he recently purchased to
incorporate the indoor display and sale of a minimal number of cars. Any outdoor display
or sales would require a special condition use pernut.
�
2. Rezoning the property is unlikely to significantly affect the development or nnprovement of
surrounding properties. The properry is within a wedge of land tucked between the
Zoning File #01-211-125
Page hvo
Minnesota Brewing Company and a major industrial pazcel that is home to ADM, .
railroad-owned property used to transfer cars to semi-trucks for delivery, and several auto-
related uses. The surronnding zoning is B-2 and f-2.
3. The proposed rezoning is not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. In the long term,
fhis azea is likely to be redeveloped as new more intensive uses replace the aging industrial
uses that surround it. Randolph is siated as a key stop in plans for varioas transit
altematives in the Riverview Comdor. A B3 zoning district is consiste� with the
urtensity of development one might expect at such a node. Indeed, West Seventh Street,
while zoned largely B-2, includes a significant number of B-3 nodes.
4. Sea 64.400 of the zoning code requires t6at an application for rezoning be accompanied
by a consent petition of two-thirds of the property owners within 100 feet of the property
to be rezoned. Ten signatures were required. Ten were received.
STAFF RECQMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the rezoning of 459 Toroirto from B-2 to B-3.

� pianning commission resolution
fife number �1-63
date Ju� z�, 200�
WHEREAS, Richard Harnden, Fiie #01-211-125, has applied for a Rezoning from S-2 to B-3
under the provisions of §64.400 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code for property located at 459
Toronto, legally described as Ex W 50 ft; Lot 1 and all of Lots 28, 29 and 30, Block 31,
Thomas Daly's Subdivision of Blocks 18 and 31 of Stinson, Brown and Ramsey's Addition; and
WHEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission, on July 19, 2001, held a
public hearing at which all persons present were given an opportunity to be heard pursuant to
said appiication in accordance with the requirements of §64.300 of the Saint Paul Legislative
Code; and �
WHEREAS, the Saint Paul Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to its
Zoning Committee at the public hearing, as substantially reflected in the minutes, made the
following findings of fact:
1. The applicant proposes to expand an existing auto repair business he recently
purchased to incorporate the indoor display and sale of a minimal number of cars. Any
� outdoor display or sales would require a speciai condition use permit.
2. Rezoning the property is unlikely to significantly affect the development or improvement
of surrounding properties. The property is within a wedge ofi land tucked between the
Minnesota Brewing Company and a major industrial parcel that is home to ADM,
railroad-owned property used to transfer cars to semi-trucks for delivery, and several
auto-related uses. The surrounding zoning is B-2 and I-2.
3. The proposed rezoning is not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. In the long
term, this area is likely to be redeveloped as new more intensive uses replace the aging
industrial uses that surround it. Randolph is slated as a key stop in pians for various
transit alternatives in the Riverview Corridor. A B-3 zoning district is consistent with the
intensity of deve4opment one might expect at such a node. lndeed, West Seventh
Street, while zoned largely B-2, includes a significant number of B-3 nodes.

Re¢ion31 Bluenrint Undate: Process and Issues -(John Kari, Metropolitan Council)
Mr. John Kari, Metropolitan Council, gave a power point presentation on the Regional
Blueprint. Mr. Kari talked about potential metro policies and actions that could support fully
developed communities with redevelopment financing, housing, transportation, polluted sites,
etc.
Mr. Kari stated the Metropolitan Council is beginning to look to the year 2030 and how to use
regional investments in transit, highways, regional parks, sewer systems and airports to help
facititate a balanced system that works for both the cities and older suburbs and the new growing
suburbs. He stated they have done a series of ineetings on regional growth scenarios using
Smart Growth Workshops; some were broader regional meetings and some were specific
opportunity sites. Mr. Kari talked about development on the edge of communities and how that
relates to transportation, affordable housing, and jobs. �
Mr. Kari said that major issues for the Regional Blueprint are mobility, housing choices, livable
communities, and natural resoutce preservation. He stated a major focus of this Council is how
do we really help central city and older suburban neighborhoods and economic areas to stay
vital.
Mr. Kari stated that in this region we spend about one million dollars a day on infrastructure,
`" whether for sewers, highways, parks, or transit. The Regional Blueprint includes LRT,
busways, and commuter rail as well as highway improvements. They arz lookin� at how they
leverage both regiona an oca m ras ruc �
decisions that will reinforce a good transit system.
VI. Neighborhood and Current Planning Conunittee
Harriet Island/District del Sol Smart Gro��'th Onnortunitv Site_ - Brief oven�iew of
prooram and presentation of alternatives. (Lucy Thompson, 651/266-6575)
Ms. Lucy Thompson gave a brief presentation on the Harriet Island/District del Sol site.
Ms. Thompson stated that in Jurre of 2000 the City was invite� by the 2.4euopolitan,Council to
participate in the Smart Growth Twin Cities Program. The intention of thz program was to
identify "Opportunity Sites" tiuoughout the seven county metropolirr.n a*za that can demonstrate
�
o�_�k�
what Smart Growth looks like on the ground. In the Met Council's eyes, "Opportunity Sites"
� are new forms of urban development that make use of existing investments in transportation and
odier infrastructure and that really try to get better at the relationship between land use and
transportation. Six participants were selected, and will receive essentially free planning and
urban design assistance from Calthorpe Associates, Berkeley, California to conduct a citizen
�vorkshop to generate land use al[ernatives for the site. The final product will be an illustrated
master plan, a development program, urban design guidelines, financing program, staging plan,
and a before-and-afrer photo simulations that can show existin� conditions and future conditions
with new planning principles in place.
Ms. Thompson referred to some of the Smart Growth Twin Cities project objectives: (1) Relate
development/redevelopment with transit; (2) Intensify land use through appropriate densities and
mixing of uses, including housing, to support transit use, walking, biking and community
interaction; (3) Connect housing and areas of employment growth; and (4) Provide an integrated
mix of housing types and price ranges within a development. These are the kinds of principles
tha[ have been incorporated into the Mixed Use Urban Village work, the zoning work, and all of
the urban design plans, Master Plans that are implementing new urbanism principles of mixing ,
land use, creating walkable neighborhoods, connecting housing and jobs, and having a range of
housing types within a neighborhood. PED worked with the West Side Citizens Organization,
Riverview Economic Development Association, and the Neighborhood Development Alliance to
prepare an application to the Met Council for the Harriet Island/District del Sol Site.
Ms. Thompson stated it was a good application because it can address planning, design and
Smart Growth issues on two kinds of sites on the West Side. Part of the site is the Harriet Island
site, the light industrial uses behind Harriet Island generally west of �Vabasha. Once Harriet
� Island is completed and the West Side Flats Master Plan, there will a lot of pressure for the area
behind Harriet Island to change. The other part of the site is the District del Sol area, which is
the Riverview Economic Development Association's name for their corridor revitalization
program for Concord, Robert, and Wabasha starting at the base of the bluff and heading up to
the upper part of the West Side. The opportunity that that presented to us is to look at how we
apply smart growth to these principles on small, incremental, in-fili sites in a built-up
neighborhood. So, we have on the Flats the potential for a large redevelopment site, and up on
the bluff we have the opportunity for applying these principles on smaller sites.
Ms. Thompson stated there was a community workshop in late May 2000 with 75 people
attending. There is a Task Force comprised of community partners, Met Council staff, and Ciry
staff working with the Cal[hocpe team. At a debriefing session after the workshop, ideas fell
into three categories: (1) looking at an alternative for redevelopment on these sites that is more
residential intensive; (2) one diat is more employment intensive; and (3) one that includes a
Saints ballpark. An open house was held in late June, and a public meeting will be held in the
middle of August to do a more formal presentation of the alteri�atives.
Ms. Thompson explained the key elements of all three of the altecnatives. The Neighborhood
and Current Planning Committee will bring back a preferred alternative to the Commission in
late Fall.
Commissioner Alton asked Ms. Tliompson �ahether the alternatives are consistent with the City's
Compiehensive Plan. D1s. Thompson stated tliat ihe residentiai-in�ensive �nd employment-
r1
LJ
intensive alternatives are generally consistent with both the Comprehensive Plan and Saint Paul
on the Mississippi Development Framework. The Saints ballpark was not envisioned in these
documents. •
Hillcrest Villaae Smart Growth Opportunitv Site - Presentation of alternatives from May 24,
2001- Open House. (Patricia James, 651/266-6639)
Commissioner Kramer gave a presentation on the Hillcrest Villa�e Smart Growth Site. He
stated there were a couple of very well-atrended community meetings out of which the planning
consultants developed two alternatives A and B. Alternative B tends ro be more intensive in
terms of bo[h housing (only about 70 units difference between Alternative A& B) and
commercial. The planning area straddles the Maplewood-Saint Paul boundary, so he is not sure
how implementation wiil work. The largest block is located in Maplewood and the plan shows
intensive development there that would add a lot of housing units and a grocery store in
Alternative B. As you move into Saint Paul the emphasis has been on the comers; at the
southwes[ corner of Larpenteur and White Bear Avenue, is a commercial redevelopment which
may or may not include housing. There was a lot of discussion about the blocks in the Hillcrest
Shopping Center south of Idaho Avenue on the east side of White Bear Avenue and both plans
call for redevelopment of that block. Commissioner Kramer stated [hat during the neighborhood
meetings there was a strong preference for Alternative A. Both alternatives show more
greening, pedestrian access, services that Fit the neighborhood, and additional residential units
would bolster those services and stores.
Mr, Soderholm asked Commissioner Kramer about the Riverview Busway comin� through this
area. Commissioner Kramer stated there is a transit hub on Idaho Avenue that could be used.
Or there was also talk about extending California Avenue across White Bear Avenue. Maybe
buses would lay over at Aldrich Arena so there wouldn't be buses idling on White Bear Avenue. �
Commissioner Johnson thanked Commissioner Kramer and Patricia James for their work on this
project, and Commissioner Kramer thanked the Planning Commission members that attended
some of the community meetings.
VII. Amendinent to Tax Increment Fivancing District No 1(North Ouadranfl - adopt resolution
finding amendment consistent with Comprehensive Plan. (Allen Carlson, 651/266-6616)
Mr. Allen Cadson state t iat t ie ousm� an �
proposing expand the district boundaries of whaYs called the Tax Increment Financing District
#1 (North Quadrant). The original boundaries of the district were Seventh, Eighth, Wacouta
and Sibley Streets. Mr. Carlson stated the City is proposing to expand the boundaries to include
the block which is bounded by Eighth, Ninth, Sibley, and Temperance Streets. The reason for
the expansion is to allow Tax Increments to assist partially in the financin� the Phase 2
Development, which will be a 122-unit, 5-story, rental building, and a 38 unit, 4-story, for-sale
condominium building that will front on the City's new park. Phase 1 is now undzr construction
and will be ready for occupancy by January 2002 has 114 units of rental housinQ, some
commercial along Sevenfh Street and another 38-unit, for-sale to�vn home candominium
development. The tcvo projects are identical it� design and concep[. This proposal is consistent
with the Nordi Quadruit Preciuct Plan t3_at was deti�eloped about cwo years ago. �ir. Carlson
�
a t-q�3
stated that the City is moving forward with approval of an amendment to the Tax Inciement
Plan. State statutes require Planning Commission review a finding that the TIF amendments are
• consistent with the Comprehensive Plan of the City.
nSOTION Commissioner Kramer moved approval of the resolution fznding the amendment to
be co�:sistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Commissioner Johnson seconded the motion.
The motio�: carried unanimously on a voice vote.

PURPOSE: Rezone from B-2 to B-3 to allow mdoor auto sales.
PARCEL SIZE: 15,050 square feet
EXISTING LAND USE: Auto repair
SURROUNDING LAND USE:
North: Single family residence, zoned B-2
South: Light industrial, zoned I-2
East: Neighborhood commerciaUoffice, zoned B-2
West: Randolph Street, industrial, zoned B-2 and I-2
ZONING CODE CITATION: Sec. 64.400 outlines the process whereby properry may be
rezoned.
HISTORY/DISCUSSION: None.
DISTRICT COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION: The West Seventh/Fort Road Federarion had
made no recommendation on the application by the time this staff report was prepared.
FINDINGS:
The applicant proposes to expand an existing auto repair business he recently purchased to
incorporate the indoor display and sale of a minimal number of cars. Any outdoor display
or sales would require a special condition use pernut.
�
2. Rezoning the property is unlikely to significantly affect the development or nnprovement of
surrounding properties. The properry is within a wedge of land tucked between the
Zoning File #01-211-125
Page hvo
Minnesota Brewing Company and a major industrial pazcel that is home to ADM, .
railroad-owned property used to transfer cars to semi-trucks for delivery, and several auto-
related uses. The surronnding zoning is B-2 and f-2.
3. The proposed rezoning is not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. In the long term,
fhis azea is likely to be redeveloped as new more intensive uses replace the aging industrial
uses that surround it. Randolph is siated as a key stop in plans for varioas transit
altematives in the Riverview Comdor. A B3 zoning district is consiste� with the
urtensity of development one might expect at such a node. Indeed, West Seventh Street,
while zoned largely B-2, includes a significant number of B-3 nodes.
4. Sea 64.400 of the zoning code requires t6at an application for rezoning be accompanied
by a consent petition of two-thirds of the property owners within 100 feet of the property
to be rezoned. Ten signatures were required. Ten were received.
STAFF RECQMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the rezoning of 459 Toroirto from B-2 to B-3.
