Ms. Yang Zhang showed slides and presented the staff report. Ms. Zhang stated that the map in
the staff report was not accurate and proceeded to pass out an accurate map of the area. She also
stated the District Council voted on September 26, 2001, in support of the application and the
Zoning Staff recommends approvai of the Rezoning. '
• At the question of Commissioner Gordon, Ms. Zhang expiained that most of the letters received
regarding traffic concerns are mostly perception. The area in question is quiet with very littie traffic
and 26 senior units will not have an adverse impact on the level of traffic.
Mr. Dave Engfer, the developer of the project, explained the development was being constructed
in an effort to develop senior housing in the neighborhoods in lieu ot the senors relocating to the
suburbs. He went on to expiain fhe type of development and how it would affect the City.
Upon the question of Commissioner Gordon, Mr. Engler stated there has been a perception of
parking problems existing in the neighborhood for some time. The existing neighborhood traffic
is very low and most senior residents don't own cars and the ones that do have very few trip counts
compared with other housing.
Mr. Phil Gravel,1559 Cumberland Street, stated he was concerned about protecting the view from
the biuff and creating a buffer between the single-family homes and the higher density housing
multi-famify. He also stated he would like to see a condition placed on this project stating it could
be used for an owner occupied only senior housing development.
Mr. Howie Meleo, 405 W. Hoyt, appeared and stated he was concerned with the view the complex
would create. He also had concerns with the rezoning of the other sites and none of the bluff views
would be presenred.
Mr. Howard Merrill, 1887 Merriil Street, came forward and described the area. He explained thaf
. the traffic was a problem because the traffic going westbound has to cross two-lanes of high speed
traffic as it is leaving Dale Street. He also expressed concerns about the bluff views being
preserved.
Mr. Dave Engfer stated he would buy the property if the rezoning is approved.

At the question of Commissioner Kramer, Mr. Engfer explained the co-ops are financed by HUD
and under Section 213 the co-op is owned by a cooperative, not the individual resident. Individual
residents have a share in the co-operative and have a right to reside in the buiiding with all of the
advantages of home ownership without being individually liable for the underlying mortgage to
HUD. They are controlled by a cooperative board of directors which are elected by the residents.
It is very uniikely that this project would be converted to anything eise other than a senior co-
operative.
The public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Morton moved to approve the rezoning. Commissioner Gordon seconded it.
The motion passed by a vote of 8-0.

Ladies and Gentiemen:
I am writing to obj ect to the rezoning requested for the above-referenced matter. I live at
1585 Cohansey Street, #103, in the Tara Hails Condominiums. Our development has been in
existence since the mid-1980s. The streets in this small neighborhood were recently completed
and updated with the addition of several condominium/townhouse units in the past rivo years and
the street system is a small one composed of six or seven blocks that empty at two intersections
• on to Larpenteur Avenue at Mackubin and Cumberland streets. There are no other through
streets and these few streets already serve our 45-unit condominiums, the new
condominium/townhouse units recently built and several older multiple unit aparhnents and
smaller condominium buildings, as well as a few single family homes. I strongly object to
another 26-unit building in this area and, frankly, cannot really think that the proposed
developers would even think it is reasonable themselves.
I hope that the Planning Commission Zoning Committee has made themselves
thoroughly aware of the density of living units"already in existence in this area and the very
much restricted street service available. I appreciate your attention to my objections and your
serious consideration of denial of this rezoning request. Thank you.
Sincerely,
'� Z�e��

RE: File #O1-223-180
My comments a6out the rezoni � from a one-fainily residential to multipie-family residential
are as follows:
• With 26 units there is a potential of an additiona152 cars. Pazking is allocated for 30
cars. This is a small street for such possible heavy traffic.
• There are only rivo s�eets to reach Lazpenteur. Both are hills. The access to this street •
seems minimal.
• There is no bus service on Larpenteur between Rice and Dale. Does this mean that
mini-busses will be traversing these small s�eets to pick up people who do not own
cars?
• It seems that too much traffic will be generated by changing this rezoning to a multi-
family — even though the cause is worthwhile.

John A. & Helen M. Regenold (01-223-180) - Rezone from R-3 One-Family Residential to RM-2
Multiple-Family Residentiai to allow construction of a 26-unit apartment building for seniors. xx
Idaho & xx Arundel; SE corner of Idaho and Arundei.
Ms. Yang Zhang showed slides and presented the staff report. Ms. Zhang stated that the map in
the staff report was not accurate and proceeded to pass out an accurate map of the area. She also
stated the District Council voted on September 26, 2001, in support of the application and the
Zoning Staff recommends approvai of the Rezoning. '
• At the question of Commissioner Gordon, Ms. Zhang expiained that most of the letters received
regarding traffic concerns are mostly perception. The area in question is quiet with very littie traffic
and 26 senior units will not have an adverse impact on the level of traffic.
Mr. Dave Engfer, the developer of the project, explained the development was being constructed
in an effort to develop senior housing in the neighborhoods in lieu ot the senors relocating to the
suburbs. He went on to expiain fhe type of development and how it would affect the City.
Upon the question of Commissioner Gordon, Mr. Engler stated there has been a perception of
parking problems existing in the neighborhood for some time. The existing neighborhood traffic
is very low and most senior residents don't own cars and the ones that do have very few trip counts
compared with other housing.
Mr. Phil Gravel,1559 Cumberland Street, stated he was concerned about protecting the view from
the biuff and creating a buffer between the single-family homes and the higher density housing
multi-famify. He also stated he would like to see a condition placed on this project stating it could
be used for an owner occupied only senior housing development.
Mr. Howie Meleo, 405 W. Hoyt, appeared and stated he was concerned with the view the complex
would create. He also had concerns with the rezoning of the other sites and none of the bluff views
would be presenred.
Mr. Howard Merrill, 1887 Merriil Street, came forward and described the area. He explained thaf
. the traffic was a problem because the traffic going westbound has to cross two-lanes of high speed
traffic as it is leaving Dale Street. He also expressed concerns about the bluff views being
preserved.
Mr. Dave Engfer stated he would buy the property if the rezoning is approved.

At the question of Commissioner Kramer, Mr. Engfer explained the co-ops are financed by HUD
and under Section 213 the co-op is owned by a cooperative, not the individual resident. Individual
residents have a share in the co-operative and have a right to reside in the buiiding with all of the
advantages of home ownership without being individually liable for the underlying mortgage to
HUD. They are controlled by a cooperative board of directors which are elected by the residents.
It is very uniikely that this project would be converted to anything eise other than a senior co-
operative.
The public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Morton moved to approve the rezoning. Commissioner Gordon seconded it.
The motion passed by a vote of 8-0.

John A. and Helen M. Regenold
xx Idaho and xx Arundel, SE corner of Idaho and Anindei
Ladies and Gentiemen:
I am writing to obj ect to the rezoning requested for the above-referenced matter. I live at
1585 Cohansey Street, #103, in the Tara Hails Condominiums. Our development has been in
existence since the mid-1980s. The streets in this small neighborhood were recently completed
and updated with the addition of several condominium/townhouse units in the past rivo years and
the street system is a small one composed of six or seven blocks that empty at two intersections
• on to Larpenteur Avenue at Mackubin and Cumberland streets. There are no other through
streets and these few streets already serve our 45-unit condominiums, the new
condominium/townhouse units recently built and several older multiple unit aparhnents and
smaller condominium buildings, as well as a few single family homes. I strongly object to
another 26-unit building in this area and, frankly, cannot really think that the proposed
developers would even think it is reasonable themselves.
I hope that the Planning Commission Zoning Committee has made themselves
thoroughly aware of the density of living units"already in existence in this area and the very
much restricted street service available. I appreciate your attention to my objections and your
serious consideration of denial of this rezoning request. Thank you.
Sincerely,
'� Z�e��

RE: File #O1-223-180
My comments a6out the rezoni � from a one-fainily residential to multipie-family residential
are as follows:
• With 26 units there is a potential of an additiona152 cars. Pazking is allocated for 30
cars. This is a small street for such possible heavy traffic.
• There are only rivo s�eets to reach Lazpenteur. Both are hills. The access to this street •
seems minimal.
• There is no bus service on Larpenteur between Rice and Dale. Does this mean that
mini-busses will be traversing these small s�eets to pick up people who do not own
cars?
• It seems that too much traffic will be generated by changing this rezoning to a multi-
family — even though the cause is worthwhile.
SincereIy,

DISTRICT COUNCII. RECOMMENDATION: District 6 voted on September 26,
PRESENT ZONING: R-3
2001, to support the rezoning.
H. FINDINGS:
The applicant has requested that the vacant wooded lot they own at the southeast
corner of Idaho and Arundel be rezoned from R 3 to RM-2 in order to construct a
26-unit apartment building for seniors. The building would be ownership
cooperative units for seniors of age 55 or oider. City financing is anticipated.
2. The proposed rezonin� to RM-2 is compatible and consistent with the housin�
development proposed for the site and with adjacent multiple family zoning and
land use.
The Land Use Plan chapter of the St. Paul Comprehensive Plan encourages
production of new housing units as a major goal of the comprehensive plan, and
specifically supports providing a variety of housing types includin� condominiums,
apartments and housing for seniors throughout the City's neighborhoods, ,
4. The proposed rezoning to RM-2 provides for reasonable use of the property, and
would be a benefit to the community.
I. STAFF RECONIMENDATION:
�
Based on the findings above, staff recommends approvai of the rezonin� of the property at �
the southeast comer of Idaho and Arundel, legally described as Lots 4-12, Idaho Addition,
St. Paul, Ramsey County, from R-3 to RM-2.
