The applicant has purchased this property and would like to convert it to residential use to house her extended family. Completelyresidential uses are not permitted in the 11 Industrial district. 2. The proposed zoning is consistent with the way this area has developed. The building used to house offices for Koppers Twin City Coke Co., a heavy industria� use than has been gone for many years. The`surrounding property has been redeveloped for other, light industrial uses and a • charter school. The residential development south of Pierce Butler Route has not changed. Zoning this sizabie parcel to TN2 permits both the present intended residential use of the property and future potential commercial or limited production and processing uses. 3. The proposed zoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Land Use Plan policy 5.2.1 supports compatible mixed uses in separate buiidings in close proximity. Objective 5.3 calis for having a range of housing types and values in every neighborhood of the city. The Hamline Midway Community Plan (2000) supports life-cycie and affordable housing as well as smoothing the transitions between industrial, commercial, and residential uses. TN2 zoning is compatible with these policies. 4. The proposed zoning is compatibie with the light industrial uses to the west, the charter schooi to the east, and the low density housing to the south. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Saint Paui Pianning Commission recommends to the City Councii that the application of Nou Vang for a rezoning from 11 (Light Industiai) to TN2 (Traditionai Neighborhood) for property at 892 Hamiine Ave N be approved. moved by Morton seconded by in favor Unanimous � against ��- �� Saint Paul Planning Commission City Hall Conference Center 15 Kellogg Boulevard West Minutes January 12, 2007 A meeting of the Planning Commission of the CiTy of Saint Paul was held Friday, January 12, 2007, at 830 a.m. in the Conference Center of City Hall.

If, in the future, the owner wanted to create additional units in the building, or use it for a rooming house, building permits would alert the City to this change, and the buiiding owner wouid be required to get all required approvals, including a certificate of occupancy.

Piease consider the problems in rezoning this property. We aiready have a problem with traffic on Pierce Butler due to its use as a truck route which is what it was intended for, to alleviate this kind of traffic on University and other streets. Starting the charter schooi across the street has already caused more of a safety problem there. I have witnessed many accidents on this corner myself and believe if you really insist on changing the zoning then a traffic light should be installed to help with the safety of any new residents and the school that is already present. This does somewhat defeat the truck route purpose in slowing it down..... Thank You, Bob Jameson • • r1 U ZONING COMMITTEE STAFF REPORT o�-�g� FILE # 06-289-537 1.

I make this Affidavit based on personal l�owledge of the property and current family needs. . 3. I t�ave lived at my current residence (ll57 Sherburne Ave., St. Paul, Ml� since August 1989 wfien my family is stffi smail especially my children were still younger. 4. I purcl�ased 892 Hamline Ave North, St. Paul, MN on November 1, 2006._ 5. This property is currentlq being used as an office building. It is located on the corners of Hamliue Ave North and Pierce Butler Route. 6. Prior to owning this building I have worked with the previous owner, Hamline Court, LLC or Kou Vang which he is a friend of mine. I have been discussing about p�chasing this building for the last year a balf with him. I know Kou was having a tough time reirting office spaces in the building and I believe it was so due to the fact that it is located too isolated from the main traflic flows. 7. Currently, there are a couple of tenants in the building but they aze paying low rents vs other areas such as University Ave. 8. Bq looking from the outside, the property looks like a big house with six car garages, not an offce building. I ha�e resided in this neighborhood since 1989 I never realized it was an office build'u�g, not a residence, until Kou owned it. 9. I wish to apply for a property rezoning for this properiy from an Il to. TN2. I0. If zo ning is approved, I intend to oCCUpy this property as my main residence to meet my fanuly's needs. Currently, there aze 11 famiTy members in my family and the family members are: me and my husband, five children (ages 22, 20, 19, 12, & 10), my brother in-law and his wife, and my parents. 11.

Mp children aze attending the colleges that are near � &y, Hameline IJniversity in St. Paul and American National Universify in Rosevilie. 12: This properly, even thougki, it is zoned il, all properties across Pierce Butler route to the south is the Hameline neighbothood res" ces ey aze zoned -" residential. • • Subscribed and swom to before me on: ' � /4 dayof��c�mg� 2006... ��'��- � �,�� Notary Fub2ic i �G6ENDAMWISSiNK - 1 .
