The Purpose of the Notification included: "Rezone from P-1 (parking) to RM-2 (multiple- family)". The SUPC Neighborhood Development Committee had scheduled a preliminary review of this development project at their October 21, 2003 Community Meeting. A Task Farce was established to delineate and summarize the community's concerns and suggestions. Please find attached the Notes of the November 10, 2003 Task Force Meeting. The rezoning issue and proposed development "concepP' were placed on the Neighborhood Development Committee's Community Meeting Agenda on November 18, 2003. 825+ fliers (see attached flier / Meeting notice) had been distributed throughout the community regarding these Meetings. 23 community residents and agency representatives attended the November 10, 2003 Task Force Meeting, and approximately 95 people attended the November 18, 2003 Community Meeting. The owners and developers of the property were present and provided and extensive overview of the proposed project and answered questions from those present about the massing, density, traffic, parking, and safety issues for this intersection. A motion was made to "approve the rezoning of the parcel from P-1 to RM-2 for the purposes of developing residential housing units within a required building height of no more than 4 stories that meets the historic guidelines of the area and will not require any variance requests to construct." 38 persons indicated support for the Motion. 11 persons indicated opposition to the Motion, with the remainder of those present abstaining. The Motion passed as moved. Discussion continued with the developer indicating the basis for their proposal both as regards the financial feasibility and quality of the proposed building and its design. A Task Force will meet with the developer in order to explore a building design that will be consistent with the suggestions and considerations of all � munity and project stakeholders. The Neighborhood Development Committee unanimously approved proposed Zoning Change Request to "Rezone from P-1 (parking) to RM-2 (multiple-family)" on the SE corner of Marshall and Western, and will refer its recommendation to the SUPC Board at its November 25, 2003 Meeting.

ZONING CODE CITATION: §60.450 lists uses permitted in the RM-2 district; §64.400(b) provides for changes to the zoning of property initiated by the property owner. F. HISTORY/DISCUSSION: In 1987 and 1988 a number of variances were approved to permit an apartment building to be moved onto these lots and a lot fronting on Dayton Avenue (Zoning File #'s 10124 and 10276). In 1990 variances for lot coverage, density, and setback were approved to permit construction of a 36-unit apartment buiiding on these same lots (Zoning File # 10608). in 1996 the City Council approved a rezoning of these lots from RM-2 to P-1 so that a parking lot could be constructed (Zoning File # 96-054). None of these projects ever came to fruition. G. DISTRICT COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION: None received at the time the staff report was prepared. H. FINDINGS: 1. The applicant is proposing to rezone the lots at the southeast corner of Marshall and Western from P-1 to RM-2 in order to build a condominium apartment building. 2. The property is in the Historic Hill Heritage Preservation District. Designs for the project must be approved by the Saint Paul Heritage Preservation Commission. The applicant has also applied to the Board of Zoning Appeals for variances for the project. 3. The proposed multi-family use and zoning are consistent with the surrounding land uses and zoning. The area is largely multiple family residential and the surrounding zoning is RM-2. Prior to a zoning change in 1996, the land was also zoned RM-2. 4. The area is densely populated with a number of apartment buildings on relatively small Iots with little or no off-street parking. However, the existing adjacent muitiple family buildings are • not required to provide additional parking for their residents. The current P-1 zoning does not permit any use on the property but parking. The parking lot for which the P-1 zoning was approved was never constructed. o � �ii Zoning File # 03-390-104 Zoning Committee Staff Report page 2 5.

The SUPC Neighborhood Development Committee (November 18, 2003) and Board of Directors (November 25, 2003) supported the following position: "to approve the rezoning of the parcel from P-1 to RM-2 for the purposes of developing residential housing units within a required building height of no more than 4 stories that meets the historic guidelines of the area and will not require any variance requests to construct." This position was supported by the following findings: 1) The property at 226 Western Avenue NoMh can be put to a reasonable use under the strict provisions of the code. 2) The proposed variances are not in keeping with the spirit aud intent of the code, and are inconsistent with the health, safeTy, comfort, and welfare of the inhabitants of the City of Saint Paul. 3) The request for the variance appears to be based primarily on a desire to increase the value or income potential of the parcel of land. This position has remained unchanged since the decisions made in November 2003 and thus these findings and recommendations support the above appeal of the Board of Zoning's decision to approve the requested va: iances. �'lease ird encicsed severa] attachments regarding these issues.

The Purpose of Major Variance Requests included: "Several variances in order to construct a 6-story 69-unit condominium building on the southeast corner of Marshall and Western Avenues 1.) Lot coverage of 30% is allowed and coverage of 49% is proposed, for a variance of 19% (4,804 square feet). 2.) A sideyard setback of 37.5 feet is required and a setback of 15 feet is proposed, for a variance of 17.5 feet on each side. 3.) A building height of 5-stories or 50 feet is allowed and a height of 6-stories and 75 feet is proposed for a variance of 1-story and 25 feet. 4.) The 69 dwelling units require 103 off-street parking spaces and SO spaces are proposed, for a variance of 23 spaces. 5.) The parcel size permits 82 zoning rooms and 165 rooms are proposed, for a variance of 83 rooms (49,800 square feet). 6.) Trash storage and recycling is not permitted in any required yard except a rear yard. The applicant is proposing to locate the storage area in a required side yard on the southeast corner of the building. ". The SUPC Neighborhood Development Committee reviewed these Major Variance Requests and the Rezoning Request at its Coxnmunity Tdeetir_g Y!eld on November 18, 2003. 825+ flier notices (see attached) were distributed regarding this proposed development throughout the community. 95+ people and agency representatives attended this Meeting. The owners / developers of the above noted property at 226 Western Avenue North, presented an extensive overview of the proposed project. They reported that they had redesigned the 6�` story (top floor) so that it wiil be setback from the outer wall of the building and thus not be visible from the street level sight line. In addition, they had agreed to major exterior and materials changes in order to receive approval from the Heritage Preservation Commission. Community members present expressed concerns about the massing and density of the proposed pro}ect,and its unpact on the tr�c / pedestrian safety and parking availability azound this already busy intersection. The developers were firm that their calculations regazding the financial feasibility of the proposed developmern required a 5`" and 6`�' floor be included. Many in attendance disagreed. A list of concerns and issues regazding the proposed project had been prepared at a Community Meeting held on November 10, 2003 (see attached Meeting Notes). In addition several written letter, emails, and phone ca11s were received in the SUPC Office expressing "opposition" to the development as.proposed. (i) d�-�� A SUPC Boazd Member asked if the Environmental Protecrion Agency (EPA) would be involved, since the site had been an old gas station. The developer stated that they will need to dig down, and make sure the hole is "clean" before building on the site. Another SUPC Boazd Member presented an informal, but thorough survey of units within a 1 block radius of the surrounding azea; the results indicated 315 units x 1.5 people per unit = 675 people. A lengthy discussion of the proposed project and neighborhood concerns expressed by those present ensued. A Motion was made to: "approve the rezoning of the parcel from P-1 to RM-2 for the purposes of developing residential housing units within a required building height of no more than 4 stories that meets the historic guidelines of the area and will not require any variance requests to construct." 38 persons indicated support for the Motion. 11 persons indicated opposition to the Motion, with the remainder of those present abstauung. 2 letters / 1 email / and 1 phone call were received expressing support of the sense of the above motion. � The Motion passed as moved. The Neighborhood Development Committee presented the results of the Community Meeting on November 18, 2003 to the SUPC Board of Directors at their November 25, 2003 Meeting, and the motion to approve the rezoning of the parcei was approved along with approval of the denial of the variances requested for the proposed project. The SUPC Board indicated, along with its support of the morion noted above that was made at the Communiry Meeting on November 18, 2003, its position that: 1) The property at 226 Western Avenue North can be put to a reasonable use under the strict provisions of the code. 2) The proposed variances are not in keeping with the spirit and intent of the code, and are inconsistent with the health, safety, comfort, and welfare of the inhabitants of the City of Saint Paul. 3) The request for the variance appears to be based primarily on a desire to increase the value or income potential of the parcel of land. The Neighborhood Development Committee members, SL7PC Boazd Members, community members, and the owners / developers had agreed to meet and discuss fi�rther their concerns and issues. A meeting was held on December 2, 2003, with no apparent resolution and / or movement on the divergent positions. This proposed project will be reviewed and updated at SUPC's Neighborhood Development Committee Meeting scheduled for December 16, 2003 (see attached Agenda).

The Purpose of the Notification included: "Rezone from P-i (parking) to RM-2 (multiple- family)". The SUPC Neighborhood Development Committee had scheduled a prelimivaty review of this development project at their October 21, 2003 Community Meeting. A Task Force was established to delineate and suminarize the community's concerns and suggestions. Please fmd attached the Notes of the November 10, 2003 Task Force Meeting. The rezoning issue and proposed development "concepY' were placed on the Neighborhood Development Committee's Community Meeting Agenda on November 18, 2003. 825+ fliers (see attached flier / Meeting notice) had been distributed throughout the community regarding these Meetings. 23 community residents and agency representatives attended the November 10, 2003 Task Force Meeting, and approximately 95 people attended the November 18, 2003 Community Meeting. The owners and developers of the properiy were present and provided and extensive overview of the proposed project and answered questions from those present about the massing, densiry, traffic, parking, and safety issues for *his intersechon. A motion was made to "approve the rezoning of the parcel from P-1 to RM-2 for the purposes of developing residential housing units within a required building height of no more than 4 stories that meets the historic guidelines of the area and will not require any variance requests to construct." 38 persons indicated support for the Motion. 11 persons indicated opposition to the Motion, with the remainder of those present abstaining. The Motion passed as moved. Discussion continued with the developer indicaring the basis for their proposal both as regards the financial feasibility and quality of the proposed building and its design. A Task Force will meet with the developer in order to explore a building design that will be consistent with the suggestions and considerafions of all community and project stakeholders. The Neighborhood Development Committee unanimously approved the proposed Zoning Change Request to "Rezone from P-1 (parking) to RM-2 (multiple-family)" on the SE corner of Mazshall and Western, and wili refer its recommendation to the SUPC Board at its November 25, 2003 Meering.

Specific points follow. l. On Octobec 21, the presenting developer, in response to an andience inquiry, said that a traffic study had been done for the Mazshall/Western properry and that it showed that there would be no problem ensuing from the building of a 68-unit, 6 story condo. Aowever, at the November 18 meeting, where Bill Haglund from the ciry's traffic deparnnent was present to answer questions, we learned t6at no traffic study had ever been done in regard to the proposed development. 2. In the original presentation of site plans on October 21, the developers spoke of a 68-unit building, which had always been the unders`tanding. In the meeting of November 18, tfiey said they would have to, most hlcely, eliminate a rooftop uniG Yes somehow the number o£ condos did not fall to 67, but rather stayed a# 68, because the devetoper indicated that 69 had been in tlie original pIan. None ofthis was consiste� with what neighbors had perceived earlier. 3. In the October Zl meeting, the developer said that sufficient pazking for all units would be provided in an underground garage. In the November 18 meeting, the developer said t6at they would have to apply for a variance, since they plaaned to have 1.2 spaces (rather t6an the mandated 1.5 spaces) per unit. 4. In the originai meeting, no mefftion was made of paying for a parldng space. On November 18, the developet made clear that each condo owner would be required to buy a pazldng space, elevating the proposed price of a 600-squar�foot studio to neariy $150,000. We think it is important for the deveiopers to understand that the sense of the neighborhood is positive for a condo budding on this properly, one conslructed with quality and site appropriateness. Indeed the vote taken at the November 18 meeting supported a condo building by 38 to 11, but a building of 4 stories that reguu�es no variances. The objections fieard at this meeting dealt primarily with the proposed height and footprint of the developers' planned struciure, as well as with the increased haffic and pazldng issues. People aze also concerned with the relentless "upscale" air of the project, in a neighborhood that is proud to be ava�7able to citizens of every income level. It is worthwhile noting that rivo other projects tUat came before the meeting on November 18 were much more sensitive to these issues. One of them, on Dale and Dayton, will have four townhouses at market ntes and a fifth unit available at an affordable housing leveL Ironically the lot, which this five-unit project is to be built, is a little under half the size of the MarshalUWestern properry with its planned 68 units. If we aze to work on ihis project together, it is vital that we hvst each other. manipulate or deceive the neighbors.

I � SUPC Task Force Meeting held on November 10�' 2003 Attendance: SUPC Board Members Bobby Hickman (Co-Chair); Dave Peterson (Co-Chair); Amy Michael; Manny Melendez; Cazl Nelson Staff: Jim McDonough Neighborhood Residents: 17 community residents and business owners The concerns of neighbors are as follows: l. The Size and Scale of the building. 2. Compatibility and design of the building. 3. Parking and trafFc flow. 4. Impact that the building would have to other properties in the area. Neighbors have many questions regarding zoning. What are the definitions for RM-2 and RM-3 zoning? Request for clarification from City's zoning staff. Exactly which zoning permit are you applying for and what variances wili be necessary? Neighbars would like to see a detailed development plan. How many units are on that block now? Answer: approximately 72 units. Neighbors are not opposed to the lot being developed. Many would like to see it developed but there are concerns about what is being proposed. Six stories are too much. Parking in the area is difficult already. Questions: Has there been an environmental impact statement written about the lot? If not when will this be done? How many parking spots wiii be available for the residents in the underground parking ramp? Have you or the city traffic "people" taken into consideration that the Catholic Guild will be turning into a residential building and how this will also contribute to traffic congestion in the area? What are the considerations regarding an increase in pedestrians in the area? Will you consider scaling down the building? How will the underground parking be accessed? What will the height of the building be?
