Osberg noted the applicant has submitted a revised patio plan. City Planner Ridley gave a staff report noting the revised changes to the patio plan. Ridley noted if approved a condition should be added specifying the approval date of the revised modified plan.

Mayor Maguire noted the revised plan and asked if the applicant would be willing to reduce the number of tables /seats to 10 tables and 40 seats. The applicant agreed to that reduction. Mayor Maguire then noted the proposed 36" decorative railing patio enclosure and asked the applicant if he would be open to start a transition from the railing at the back gate of the patio to a durable opaque fencing consistent with City Code standards that would go from 3 ft. to 6 ft. or 8 ft. around the corner, so as to contribute to visual screening and noise mitigation. The decorative railing would then continue along the south side and the remainder of the patio to the west. Mr. Ravich was open to the suggestion. Regarding the landscaping, Mayor Maguire suggested the City Forester review the plan. The applicant was open and flexible to the size and positioning of the trees used for screening.

Mayor Maguire made the following suggestions for compromise: to have opaque screening at 6 ft. or 8 ft. height along with landscape trees at the back of the patio, and to reduce the patio seating to a maximum of 10 tables and 40 seats. Councilmember Hansen stated he generally agreed with the proposed compromises, but asked the applicant if there was room to lower the number of patio seats. The applicant responded that he believed 40 seats would be the lowest in order to be successful with the investment given the short outdoor patio season. Councilmembers Fields agreed with the 10 tables and 40 seats, the opaque fencing and the placement of the 6 ft. trees. Councilmember Fields moved, Councilmember Tilley seconded a motion to approve a Planned Development Amendment to allow outdoor patio dining in conjunction with a restaurant with an on- sale liquor license upon property located at 4250 Lexington Avenue South, subject to the following conditions as amended: Aye: 4 Nay: 0 1.

Facts: ➢ During the recent legislative session, a new law was enacted that clarifies municipalities' ability to license and regulate tobacco, tobacco- related devices, electronic delivery devices (i.e. electronic cigarettes) and nicotine and lobelia products. ➢ An ordinance amendment is needed to incorporate the statutory changes into City Code. ➢ As the City has been requiring a tobacco license for electronic cigarette stores, the proposed ordinance amendment would not change the City's current licensing practices. Rather, it would clarify the issue of electronic cigarette (and other nicotine /tobacco products) regulation in City Code. ➢ Lobelia is a flowing plant that is sold in several ingestible forms. A chemical in lobelia has effects similar to nicotine. The sale of lobelia to minors is illegal. Attachments: (0) Agenda Information Memo June 17, 2014, Eagan City Council Meeting CONSENT AGENDA E. Reschedule the August 14, 2014 Special City Council Meeting to August 11, 2014 and schedule a Canvassing Board Meeting at 8:45 a.m. on August 14, 2014.

Facts: ➢ The Primary Election is August 12, 2014. State Statute prohibits cities from holding a meeting between 6 and 8 p.m. on the day an election is being held within the municipal boundary. ➢ In addition, the Twin Cities Premium Outlets grand opening is August 14. ➢ To accommodate these events, it is proposed that the Council reschedule its August 14 special meeting to Monday, August 11. The meeting time (5:30 p.m.) would remain the same. ➢ Because there is a primary in the City Council race, a Canvassing Board meeting is needed. It is proposed to hold the Canvassing Board meeting at 8:45 a.m. on August 14 in the Eagan Room at City Hall. Attachments: (0) Agenda Information Memo June 17, 2014, Eagan City Council Meeting CONSENT AGENDA Approve a resolution appointing absentee ballot board judges and designating them deputy city clerks for the purpose of administering elections Action To Be Considered: To approve a resolution appointing absentee ballot board judges and designating them as deputy city clerks for the purpose of administering elections Facts: ➢ The City of Eagan has been delegated by Dakota County to issue, accept /reject and count absentee ballots from Eagan voters. ➢ To carry out the absentee balloting function, the City must appoint an absentee ballot board. Consistent with past elections, the absentee ballot board consists of City staff and election judges. Absentee ballot board judges receive training in absentee ballot processing. ➢ The proposed resolution appoints the absentee ballot board members as deputy city clerks for the purpose of administering the election. Deputy city clerks are authorized under State Statute to serve on an absentee ballot board and to serve as witnesses for voters who vote absentee at City Hall. ➢ Military and overseas voters receive their ballots, called UOCAVA ballots, from the County. The County's UOCAVA ballot board accepts or rejects the ballots then transmits them to the City to be counted. Because the UOCAVA ballots are oftentimes in a different format, they must be duplicated onto a ballot than can be fed through the tabulators. In past years, the City absentee ballot board has completed the duplication. This election cycle, the County has offered to have its UOCAVA ballot board duplicate the ballots before they are delivered to the City. The proposed resolution includes the necessary language to allow the County to duplicate the ballots.

APPROVE Services Agreement — CLIMB Theatre Company Action To Be Considered: Approve services agreement with CLIMB Theatre Company for the 2014 -15 school year to provide an environmental awareness program in Eagan public schools, according to past practice, and authorize staff to oversee and manage the program. Facts: ➢ In 1993, the City of Eagan and Gun Club Lake Watershed Management Organization partnered with CLIMB Theatre Company of Inver Grove Heights to produce Toadilly Turtle. This interactive play shows K -3 grade students in Eagan how lawn chemicals, trash, oil, and other pollutants enter stormwater, and then harm lakes and wetlands. In 2011, CLIMB began presenting another play with the same messages, Of Wetlands and Watersheds. Both programs encourage students to share what they've learned with their parents. ➢ Since 1994, more than 10,000 students have experienced these programs that are sponsored by the Water Resources Program budget, as approved annually by the City Council. Funds are provided through the stormwater utility fee collected quarterly from Eagan residents and businesses. ➢ On May 5, 2014, the City Council proclaimed June 2014 Eagan Lakes Appreciation Month to encourage residents and businesses to do all they can to keep Eagan lakes clean by keeping fertilizers out of storm sewers, by picking up nearby trash, and by protecting these treasured water resources.

Approve Professional Services Agreement with CNH Architects for a space needs analysis for the Police /City Hall Campus Facility Action To Be Considered: Approve a professional services agreement with CNH Architects for a space needs analysis for the Police /City Hall Campus Facility. Facts: ➢ In 1995, the Municipal Center underwent a major renovation, which remodeled the City Hall portion of the building and added a new facility for the Police Department. At that time, it was forecasted the newly built /remodeled facility would serve the needs of Police and City operations until 2014 Due to the age of the facility along with changes in staffing levels, responsibilities, and operations, there is a need to reevaluate the existing structures on the campus to determine if operational needs are being met presently and into the future. At its March 18, 2014 meeting, the Council directed staff to seek proposals for a space needs analysis of the Police /City Hall Facility. Staff received four proposals. ➢ CNH Architects is being recommended given their extensive experience with municipal and public safety facilities and positive recommendations from other municipalities. ➢ As part of their proposal, CNH Architects will evaluate the space needs for Police and City operations, the facility's compliance with current accessibility and building code requirements, and the facility's existing mechanical systems. CNH Architects will provide two schematic plans that address current and future space needs and estimates of their associated costs. ➢ CNH Architects is proposing a fixed fee of $16,800, plus reimbursable expenses. The 2014 budget allocates $25,000 for this study. Attachments: (1) CT -1 CNH Architects Proposal May 8, 2014 City of Eagan Attn: Police 1 City Hall Space Needs Analysis 3830 Pilot Knob Road Eagan, MN 55122 Re: City of Eagan Request for Proposal - Police /City Hall Campus Facility Space Needs Analysis On behalf of CNH Architects, our consulting engineers and estimator, thank you for considering our Proposal to provide Facility Space Needs Analysis services for the City of Eagan. The project team presented in this proposal has worked together for many years on City, County, and State projects in the State of Minnesota. Our architectural /engineering team has a common goal to provide quality design services and to be at the forefront of utilizing sustainable building methodologies. We understand the need for an organized process from the first meeting through completion of this study, with clear and detailed documentation along the way. CNH Architects has worked with the City of Eagan as well as numerous municipalities throughout the Twin Cities metropolitan area to provide assessment services, reviewing current conditions of many existing governmental facilities and identifying immediate as well as future growth needs. We communicate closely with our engineers and cost estimator so that our observations are shared and comprehensive, while keeping a holistic approach on the entire project so that the overall building performance and client vision is considered when individual components and systems are under analysis. Details can impact both short and long term effects on cost, maintenance and occupant use, and as a design team we are attentive to these implications at every scale, Our office has strong relationships with many cities in the Dakota County region and excels at working on public projects and building consensus among city staff, facility management and building users. Personally, as an active and proud Eagan resident, I am particularly dedicated to providing our city with comprehensive analysis and tools to improve the city campus to best serve the city government, staff and citizens of Eagan. We look forward to serving the City of Eagan and together evaluate the facility needs of police and city hall operations. Respectfully submitted, Quinn S.

Our team will interview appropriate City Staff to understand both their current needs as well as future operational changes and anticipated growth areas, We will compare these areas to other similar cities, providing not only relational size comparisons but interjecting potential issues that may not have been considered, To create accountability and clarity in our investigation, we make it a priority to gather initial information with rigor such that assumptions are minimal, collaborating closely with our engineers to pinpoint existing and potential issues that may or may not already be identified. In this process, owner and facility management involvement is critical, particularly in revealing and weighing components that contribute towards small and large scale building performance and longevity. The greatest challenge during the assessment process is often a matter of deciding which future projection best fits the vision of the organization. To reach a balance that makes sense, our design team must be receptive to your goals as well as your limitations and find solutions that achieve results worth investing and pursuing. ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING FACILITY After the current and future staff and operational needs have been identified, our project team will begin the assessment and inventory of the existing City Hall I Police facility. First the review will be focused on finding areas where existing space could be adjusted or better used to meet space needs goals. Where applicable, we will explore with city staff other city facilities that may be appropriately used to reduce the burden on this facility. CNH Architects will also evaluate the major building systems and components, noting items that are either not meeting their functional intent or are approaching their life expectancy. This review will include exterior envelope, sealants, roof membranes, and interior finishes, among other things. In the course of assessing buildings, our Team's engineers at EDI often find or are informed by facilities managers that mechanical or electrical systems aren't performing properly and perhaps haven't been for an extended period of time. Often these systems are causing staff discomfort, energy waste, repeated maintenance calls, or work disruption. These systems require a more in- depth evaluation than is typical of an assessment, but the evaluation can help to resolve irritating problems. EDI provides commissioning services and therefore owns calibrated testing equipment which is often necessary to perform more in -depth evaluations of system that are not performing properly. The information attained can be used to engineer solutions to the problem. ACCESSIBILITY AND CODE COMPLIANCE Many existing buildings are not up to code with building codes and accessibility requirements, let alone new federal requirements related to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. We have extensive experience working with code and ADA guidelines, including recent projects completed with the State of Minnesota in upgrading all restrooms in their 4- story, 78,000 sf administrative building on the Capitol grounds, plus the unique security and accessibility issues of the Dakota County LEC 8100 Cell Block remodeling. These aspects of a project can easily become a costly component, and our familiarity with many issues related to accessibility upgrades can lead to efficient and proactive solutions. MAINTENANCE & LONGEVITY Durable materials, equipment and finishes are considered for longevity when providing recommendations in the assessment report, and consideration will be taken to balance initial lftw. CITY OF EAGAN' POLICE I CITY HALL CAMPUS SPACE NEEDS ANALYSIS a construction cost versus cost over the life of the product and its implications on the rest of the structure if any. We would present a list of options, innovative ways to keep cost at a minimum, and review the pros and cons of each option to best achieve identified project goals. Buildings inevitably deteriorate and require periodic maintenance. While keeping safety and durability of paramount importance, the Project Team is prepared to recommend options that help reduce maintenance costs and create an environment where building upkeep is simple and straightforward. SUSTAINABILITY The Project Team will provide recommendations for sustainable opportunities in the existing city campus, the current building and any future additions. CNH has many years of green building experience, with several awarded projects listed in our firm portfolio. We just recently assisted the City of Roseville in utilizing the excess heat generated by the Ice Arena on their city campus to fully heat the new Fire Station we designed for them, providing significant energy cost savings. Creative approaches such as this will be evaluated for Eagan, including initial cost and payback analysis to assist you in making informed choices that best fit the goals and values of the City. SCHEMATIC OPTIONS Once the facility space needs have been gathered, physical and code shortcomings of the facility determined, operational inefficiencies identified, and sustainability options evaluated, CNH Architects and our consultant team will synthesize this information. Schematic plan options will be developed that addresses the goals and needs for the Police and City Hall operations for both staff and public users. The design options will look at current as well as future space needs and integrate phasing potentials into the designs. The Design Team will provide examples, where applicable, from the many governmental projects that we have worked on to focus on different aspects of each design option and how it might be implemented. After feedback from the City, CNH Architects will refine two schematic plans for final presentation to staff and City Council. COST ESTIMATE AND PHASING Using the two final schematic plans options developed, CNH Architects will work with the City to define potential phasing associated with each option to meet the current and future growth goals identified earlier in the study. With this final information, our cost consultant, Professional Project Management (PPM), will provide a detailed cost estimate for each option, separating the cost by phase identified. Care will be taken to anticipate the appropriate costs for this type of renovation work based only on the preliminary schematic plans. PPM's extensive estimating experience in municipal renovations projects similar to this has been invaluable in providing a history of accurate preliminary cost estimating. RELEVANT EXPERIENCE Municipal facilities require a thorough and multi - layered approach to assessing needs for future growth. As an extension of the community, municipal buildings demand greater flexibility in assembly spaces, office areas and utility service, particularly because there is necessarily a long -term component to the overall design. Accommodations for technology equipment, private as well as shared workspaces, meeting rooms, public spaces and access to staff areas all must be considered. Future expansion needs are determined not only by immediate user demands — both paid and volunteered — but also by city growth projections, relationships with neighboring municipalities, and the political climate. Our Project Team comes with a vast understanding of the complex issues that are unique to City Halls and Police Departments and brings valuable experience to this assessment report. It is our mission to provide a comprehensive assessment of existing conditions and sound recommendations that support the vision of the City of Eagan. rftft.- CITY OF EAGAN POLICE t CITY HALL CAMPUS SPACc NEEDS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CNH Architects is a full- service architectural firm providing architectural design, engineering, interior planning and landscape architecture for corporate, commercial, manufacturing, and recreational facility owners as well as government agencies.

BISHOP HENRY WHIPPLE FEDERAL BUILDING (EDI) FORT SNELLING, MN Engineering Design Initiative completed a comprehensive feasibility study for the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building located in Fort Snelling, MN. Facility sustainability and energy efficiency were the primary focus of the study. The existing mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) systems serving the building are very inefficient, have greatly exceeded their normal operating lifetimes and have become increasingly problematic. Asbestos containing materials (ACM) are also a major concern. EDI identified four facility alternatives ranging from refurbishing and replacing selected MEP equipment to complete ACM abatement and facility renovation. The study included conceptual design, construction cost estimating, tenant relocation planning, sustainability concepts and life cycle cost analysis. Based on the study results, the US General Services Administration has implemented a program to completely renovate the building so that it can continue to serve the regional offices of the Federal Government well into the future. CITY OF EAGAN FIRE STATION #4 - FACILITY STUDY (CNH Architects) EAGAN, MN CNH Architects provided a complete facility assessment of existing Fire Station #4 for the City of Eagan. This study evaluated the existing condition of fire station exterior envelope and all interior elements to determine their life expectancy and repair costs. The facility was also reviewed for ADA accessibility, identifying deficiencies and recommended upgrades. In addition, the facility was evaluated for function, current staff and equipment needs, and finally fire fighter safety. From this review, CNH developed a list of recommended remodeling elements and an expansion to better fit the current apparatus and to expand gear locker clearance to meet NFPA safety standards. After identifying the facility's maintenance, accessibility, function and safety deficiencies, CNN Architects provided preliminary design of measures to address the existing concerns.

EAGAN POLICE I CITY HALL. CAMPUS SPACE NEEDS ANALYSIS 15 CNH Architects believes that imaging is one of the most important ways to explore and visualize a project's design along with the client. While for some there is a tendency to embrace technology as an end in itself, our approach is that technology only has the value inherent in its ability to strengthen the communication with the client and improve the visual development of the project design, With this goal in mind, CNH Architects uses Revit, the leading Building Information Modeling (BIM) software, to create a 3- dimensional model of all project designs from schematic options to final construction documents. This BIM model can be viewed from any vantage point, allowing the client and design team to explore the architectural design together in a visual manner similar to the way the actual building will be experienced. These images can range from simple 3D views of schematic building shapes and concepts to realistic renderings of interior or exterior views, with building materials, natural daylighting and manufactured lighting all shown in detail. During the schematic design phase, the use of the images from the BIM model provides the opportunity for the client to make decisions regarding multiple design options or future phases of a facility masterplan with more visual information than possible with limited renderings or 2D plans and elevations. Actual material colors and textures can be applied and several variations evaluated, assisting the Owner and design team in the Design Development phase. The images developed have also shown to be very valuable when presenting the selected design to committees, fundraising groups, and public agencies when approvals are required or excitement generated. CITY OF EAGAN POLICE! CITY HALL CAMPUS SPACE NEEDS ANALYSIS C/�jy Minnesota Zoo Black Bear Exhibit Valleywood Clubhouse Apple Valley Liquor Store No. 3 - ABLE Burn Building CNH Architects address issues of concern and opportunity for our clients with creative and innovative design solutions. Some of these design solutions are exemplified by the following examples: CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE When designing the Minnesota Zoo's new Black Bear Exhibit there were numerous challenges: the sloping site, exhibit safety, meeting the needs of the bears, fitting into the existing zoo's MN Trail, and creating a great visitor experience. This last challenge, to create a great customer experience, is a common issue with public facilities. For this exhibit, our design involved minimizing public view to caging and other institutional looking animal security features, while emphasizing the natural looking materials. A rock wall is positioned to hide the bear doors leading into the cage dens and creates a barrier to maintain the bears within their exhibit space. Landscaping is used to hide security fencing while giving the exhibit a natural feel. A cave for the bears also allows for an intimate viewing of sleeping bears, especially by the children that visit the exhibit. Large windows in the viewing gallery, with heated rocks just in front, help to attract the bears to a more visible viewing location. These and many other features increase the chances for visitors to see the bears while not being distracted by functional aspects of the exhibit. FLEXIBILITY Designing flexibility into a project is more than just creating a large featureless space, In the case of Valleywood Clubhouse, the facility was designed to accommodate a steady flow of golfers during the golf season, full course tournament events, and special occasion events in both the golf and non -golf seasons. To achieve this mix of activities and maintain the building footprint within the client's budget, a strategy of flexible rooms was developed. The main event room overlooks the 18th hole for a beautiful view of the course and the natural setting. It is sized to appeal to both golfers and special event users, This room is also equipped with audio /visual capabilities and has connections with an outdoor patio, bar serving window, commercial kitchen and a casual bar seating area. The casual bar seating area can serve as an overflow event space or accommodate a steady stream of golfers while another event is booked. The main entrance lobby with fireplace is ideal for setting a casual tone for golfers and allows enough space for a reception table for special events. All these rooms are nicely detailed and are equipped with features that can be used by either golfers and /or special event guests, ENERGY Reducing energy costs to a third of similar retail operations gives a building owner a competitive advantage. To achieve these savings, a comprehensive and innovative approach to building design was required. One strategy for the free standing Apple Valley Liquor Store No. 3 was to tie waste heat from the beverage coolers to a geothermal heat pump loop system that is used to heat and cool the building. Along with this system, a well- insulated building also limits the need for temperature adjustments. To further reduce energy consumption, efficient lighting and building systems were used. By incorporating natural daylight, the need for artificial lighting during daytime hours was reduced, and consequently the heat created by light fixtures. LED lighting and other high efficiency light sources were used, Pay back on the energy systems was calculated and verified by the owner at 6 to 7 years. This project is a Green Globe certified project and achieved Energy Star certification after a full year of operation. FIRST COSTS This fire training tower combines both a training tower and a fire burn facility. With 14 training rooms and participation from four communities, this facility reduces the need for multiple facilities and expands the training capabilities for the local fire departments, Within the facility sacrificial walls were used to allow protection of the permanent structural elements. Fires can do tremendous damage to a facility and these sacrificial block walls will need to be replaced every 5 years or more, but the overall structure should last for generations, This sacrificial system was selected in place of very expensive fire tile construction, saving the communities over $200,000 or more than 10 percent of the construction budget.

Wayne Hilbert is a principal with CNH Architects and one of the first architects LEED accredited and the first architect to receive certification as a Green Globe Professional in Minnesota. CNH Architects, along with our design team, evaluate and develop sustainable strategies with our clients. We are familiar with a variety of rating systems and have incorporated multiple sustainable and high - performance strategies in our projects. These projects not only highlight our energy strategies, but also include multiple approaches to: Performance Management Site and Water Energy and Atmosphere Indoor Environment Quality Materials and Waste ROSEVILLE FIRE STATION With an existing Ice Arena on the city campus, the new Roseville Fire Station took advantage of the economies and included the development of a campus geothermal loop system. The piping loop harvests excess heat created in the process of freezing the ice sheet and distributes this heat through the city campus to the new fire station building. This first phase of the campus geothermal loop provides sufficient energy to fully heat the entire fire station building for only the cost of circulating the fluid in the loop piping, with capacity to spare for other city buildings on the campus. APPLE VALLEY LIQUOR STORE #3 Completed in 2008, this project was the first project in Minnesota to receive a Green Globe certification. The Green Building Initiative recognized this project with a "Two Globe" rating, and the building is also Energy Star certified. Using a highly efficient geothermal heat pump system and ventilation exchange allows this building to greatly reduce energy usage. The beer coolers are also integrated into the geothermal system. APPLE VALLEY CITY HALL Using both Minnesota Sustainable Design Guide and LEED as outlines for design, this project incorporates multiple sustainable strategies. It is listed on the Minnesota Office of Environmental Assistance website as an example of green architecture. It has also been published in American City and County Magazine and The National League of Cities for its sustainable strategies. APPLE VALLEY SENIOR CENTER - APPLE VALLEY, MN Completed in 2009, this project was awarded Two Globes under the Green Globe rating system. This facility uses a combination of daylight harvesting, heat pumps, ventilation air exchange and in -floor radiant heating to provide comfort and reduce energy consumption.

Facts: ➢ On July 17, 2012, the Economic Development Authority approved a purchase agreement with Paragon Outlets Eagan LLC for the acquisition of property in the Cedar Grove Redevelopment District in northwest Eagan for the development of the Twin Cities at Eagan Outlets. ➢ On April 2, 2013, the City Council awarded the base bid for Contract 13 -01 to provide street and utility improvements for Nicols Road (formerly known as Cedar Grove Boulevard) within the Cedar Grove Redevelopment Area. The improvements included the relocation of a significant portion of the existing Nicols Road along the alignment of the former state highway (TH 13). CenturyLink had significant trunk fiber optic lines along the alignment of the former state highway that needed to be relocated in conjunction with the Nicols Road relocation /street and utility improvements. ➢ As is typical for private utilities, CenturyLink had been issued a permit to locate within the existing public right -of -way. Relocation of a private utility's facilities as part of street improvements is typically at the cost of the utility company. Since the City's relocation request was to accommodate the Paragon development, the City's typical right to demand relocation at the utility's cost due to transportation purposes was not valid. ➢ On February 19, 2013, the City Council approved an agreement between the City and CenturyLink providing for the cost of the relocation of CenturyLink facilities within Nicols Road, then estimated at $293,349.87. The agreement called for the commencement of relocation activities in early 2013. ➢ The relocation of the CenturyLink facilities has been completed. An invoice for the final cost for the relocation has been submitted in the amount of $273,915.62. Public Works staff, Community Development staff, and the City Attorney's office have reviewed the final payment request from CenturyLink, and found it to be in order for favorable Council action.

To date, the City has been patient in allowing the private market to drive most development and occupancy deals on individual properties. While the City, through its EDA has been active on a selective basis to assist with multi - property assembly and redevelopment projects, it has relied on commercial owners and brokers to market properties and has focused City efforts on working with those private entities and responding to applications for business financing assistance on a case by case basis. • The minimal use of business subsidies has allowed the City to maintain its low property tax rates for businesses that chose to locate and expand in the City without financing assistance. • The City's current Business Financing Policy and application are based on an applicant or owner approaching the City to request assistance and the City has not proactively sought opportunities to offer assistance to prospects in response to standard site selection processes. • Even as the recovery takes hold and the number of prospects increases, there are an increasing number of prospects, brokers or location consultants who include questions about local financing assistance, fee waivers, and other forms of assistance in their discussions of location options. Despite these inquiries, the City of Eagan has been able to attract MISO, Cloverleaf Cold Storage, Murphy Companies and others to make substantial investments in the City for the standard business reasons of price, infrastructure, business amenities and location. • Through the City's Visioning process, a number of comments arose in both the Council and staff response groups suggesting that the City become more aggressive about offering business incentives, either generally or on a targeted basis for certain priorities. As part of its 2014 Priorities, the City Council included an intention to "Reform the City's Financial Assistance Policy to enhance the City's flexibility and ability to pursue City priorities and amenities." In related conversations, examples of priorities and amenities have included data centers, colocation data centers, carrier hotels and certain redevelopment and revitalization opportunities. One of the few tools to support such projects not currently available through the City's Business Financing Policy is tax abatement. At its meeting of January 15, 2014, the Finance Committee discussed the potential to expand the City's policy to include the option of tax abatement in specific circumstances. Tax Abatement as a Development Tool • Currently, the City's Business Assistance Policy states that the City of Eagan does not provide business assistance through Tax Abatement. • Tax increment works best to build up from a green field or to replace lower valued, substandard buildings with new, higher valued ones. In the case of green field or economic development districts, it is necessary for the development to fall within specific use categories supporting job creation or affordable housing development. In the case of some existing buildings, the best new use of the property may be in the form of a remodeled or repositioned reuse, rather than demolition and replacement. • If the City were to see a public purpose in supporting green field development for uses other than jobs or affordable housing or to reuse an existing building for a higher and better use, tax abatement is among the only tools available for that purpose. As an example, if the City concludes it would be open to financing assistance for a project like the enhanced CSM Central Park Commons plan, Tax Abatement and third party grants would be among the only options that may be applicable. • If the Committee were to recommend an amendment of the policy in this regard, staff would recommend that it be specific about abatement only applying to the incremental City tax revenue above the pre - project tax base and that the specific types of projects to which it could apply be defined in the policy. • Likewise staff would recommend that the specific list of project types or circumstances in which the tool would be applied be defined. It would be appropriate to confirm whether the underlined list above is appropriate for this purpose. • If the Committee recommends an amendment of the policy, an item will be placed on the consent agenda on May 20th to schedule a public hearing in that regard on June 17tH ATTACHMENTS: • Draft Amendment of the City's Business Assistance Policy • Ehlers memo regarding tax abatement 4-o Le U V V 4° W h� r 0 1�1 0 0 a� 4, m &7� o nz� -° �--i o �>, c° :" cd 0 O � V) � U f. +p O N N c0 N U N � � cd bD o cqj �COO Cd 4" Q' U cd V)> N cqj N cd Q. o 0 40 'd w • `� 4-q O Cd cd U '0 O cd N H g:L, 0 0 V o d (1) rA o o d � H O O Vj s b Cj O N Y o N x�� o v by bQ � � 0 CA o b C) � N U n 0 cd O id O bb ,- R � by N O � N 4 a �p o N ON Q 00 > O O ° cUd N 4s O V) N � � D O" P.

November 18, 2013 Subject: Information Regarding the Mechanics of a Tax Abatement Levy As a follow -up to the Finance Committee's discussion on November 6, the following provides additional information regarding the abatement levy. As previously discussed, many communities use abatement in a way similar to tax increment. so The property pays its taxes in full; the community receive the taxes generated prior to the abatement; and, the increase in taxes after development is directed to a specific cost, financed either by the developer or the community. Under this scenario, the net impact to the community would be the same as if a tax increment district was established. However, as stated in the memo dated October 3, 2013, "Abatements are special tax levies. The amount of the abatement must be added to the total levy for the current year, and must be included in the proposed levy for Truth in Taxation as well as the certified levy." Tax abatement is not like tax increment for levy purposes. With tax increment, the City does not add the TIF payment to the tax levy which is annually submitted to the County in September. However, with abatement, the abatement payment is added to the tax levy. When a city is abating only the increase in taxes from a new development, it does not create an additional burden for the tax payers, or raise the City's tax rate, because the increase in the value from the development offsets the higher levy. For example, assume a commercial parcel pays $68,000 in city taxes. After development, let's further assume the parcel's market value increases substantially so that it pays $668,000 in city taxes. If only the new taxes are abated by the City, the City would continue to collect the tax revenue of $68,000. The tax increase of $600,000, due to the development, would be added to the levy. If a pay -as- you -go note is issued to the development, the payment of $600,000 would be used make payments on the note. In the example, if abatement assistance was not provided, the increase in tax revenue would help reduce the tax levy. vmwehler5 - inc. corn EHLERS Minnesota phone 651 -697 -8500 3060 Centre Pointe Drive -.

This is the biggest difference between abatement and TIF. For example, if the newspaper publishes that the City's levy increased by 5 %, the abatement could be 1% of the 5 %. Finally, abatement is a special levy, like debt, so it is outside any levy limits. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have additional questions. Agenda Information Memo June 17, 2014, Eagan City Council Meeting PUBLIC HEARINGS C. Public Hearing to consider public financing assistance to DataBank Holdings LP for the conversion of property located at 3255 Neil Armstrong Boulevard to a colocation data center Action To Be Considered: To take actions regarding business financing assistance for the DataBank Holdings LP colocation data center /carrier hotel project proposed for the former Taystee Foods building at 3255 Neil Armstrong Boulevard as it pertains to: 1) To approve or deny findings of fact, conclusions and a resolution regarding Property Tax Abatement for DataBank Holdings, LP of the City portion of the incremental tax revenue generated from improvements on the property related to the project. 2) To approve or deny a resolution authorizing and approving a Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development Minnesota Investment Fund application, grant agreement and forgivable loan for $150,000 for DataBank Holdings, LP. 3) To approve or deny a resolution supporting Data Bank Holdings LP's application Minnesota Job Creation Fund Business Designation in the amount of $270,000. 4) To approve or deny a waiver of the application fee and escrow requirement for the Data Bank financing application. Facts: ➢ DataBank LLC has submitted a Business Financing Application to the City of Eagan for consideration of actions pertaining to a $150,000 forgivable loan from the DEED Minnesota Investment Fund, a $270,000 grant from the DEED Jobs Creation Fund and the formation of a twenty year Tax Abatement District for financing assistance from the City portion of new property taxes associates with the company's prospective improvements to property at 3255 Neil Armstrong Boulevard. ➢ In order to consider the MIF funding and the Tax Abatement District, it is necessary to hold a public hearing. It is not necessary to hold a public hearing for a city's action on a Job Creation Fund application, but it would be appropriate to consider all applications at the same time. ➢ The application for consideration of a Tax Abatement District is dependent upon the amendment of the City's Business Assistance Policy, the hearing for which is also scheduled on June 17, 2014. ➢ At its meeting of May 7, 2014, the City Council Finance Committee recommended approval of the application for three forms of assistance indicated on the basis that the Council has a stated goal of attracting a colocation data center and further that the City is supportive of the development of a carrier - neutral carrier hotel to provide greater broadband opportunities for Eagan businesses and to provide regional redundancy and capacity for shared carrier switching and fiber routing alternatives. ➢ Minnesota Law permits the grant of an abatement for a period no longer than fifteen years. Additionally, the law provides for the City to request other taxing authorities (Dakota County & ISD 196) in which the parcel is located to grant an abatement. The abatement period is increased to twenty years if either of them declines to do so. Staff understands that the County and School District do not grant abatement. The City has asked Dakota County to formalize that response and it is scheduled before the County Board on July 8, 2014. The resolution below recognizes the term of the district to be twenty years, following a decline to abate taxes by either the School District or County.

Based upon all the files, records and input which were presented at the meeting the City Council makes the following Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Resolution. FINDINGS OF FACT 1. On January 4, 2011, the Eagan City Council approved a Resolution Expressing Support for an Eagan Colocation Facility and Open Access Fiber. 2. The City of Eagan has invested over $2.0 million in the installation of the AccessEagan fiber network within the City's core business district 3. DataBanlc Holdings, LP, a foreign limited partnership ( "DataBanlc ") provides enterprise -class managed data center facilities for colocation services. 4. DataBank's facilities are designed to provide clients 100% uptime availability for data, applications and equipment for their clients' critical business IT infrastructure. 5. DataBanlc desires to lease the building located at 3255 Neil Armstrong Boulevard, Eagan, Minnesota (parcel number 10- 22515 -01 -030) (the "Property "). 6. DataBank intends to install approximately $48.0 million worth of improvements to the site and building, including equipment, necessary for a colocation /data center facility at the Property (the "Project ") 1 7. The Project is anticipated to commence July 1, 2014 and to be completed by September 1, 2017. 8. Services at the colocation /data center facility are anticipated to commence January 1, 2015. 9. DataBank's colocation /data center facility will be connected to the AccessEagan fiber network. 10. DataBank's colocation /data center facility is expected to provide services to businesses located within the City of Eagan and to draw additional carriers and businesses to the City and the AccessEagan fiber network. 11. DataBank's colocation /data center facility is expected to provide carrier- neutral services. 12. The Project and colocation /data center facility is expected to create approximately 30 new jobs with an average wage of $32.50. 13. DataBank seeks assistance from the City of Eagan to finance the Project in the form of a 100% abatement of the taxes imposed by the City on the new value of the Property. 14. DataBank has also requested that the City of Eagan waive its application fees required for analysis of the impact to the City of Eagan of a tax abatement. 15. DataBank is also applying to the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development for designation as a Job Creation Fund ( "JCF ") business and to receive JCF funds for the Project 16. DataBank has also requested that the City of Eagan apply for funding through the Minnesota Investment Fund from Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development to finance the Project. 2 17. The City of Eagan has considered abating the City's share of the increase in property taxes due to an increase in the market value up to $23,420.00 annually for a maximum of 15 years with abatement to begin in 2016 and terminate after 2030. If either of these options occur, the final payment under the Abatement will be extended to February 1, 2031, and the future value of the abatement will increase but not exceed $351,300.00. These terms will hereafter be referred to as the "Abatement." 18. By Minnesota law, the term of the Abatement may increase to a maximum of 20 years if one of the other political subdivisions in which the Property is located does not abate or fails to respond to a request to abate within 90 days of receipt of the request. Under such terms, the final payment will be February 1, 2036, and the future value of the abatement will not exceed $468,400.00 19.

The City Council expects the benefits to the City of the Abatement to at least equal the costs incurred by DataBank in its redevelopment of the Property to support a colocation facility. 4. Granting the Abatement is in the public interest because it will increase the tax base of the City and provide employment opportunities in the City. 3 5. The City Council expects the direct and indirect public benefits described above to be derived from the Abatement. 6. During the period of abatement, the Property will not be located in a tax increment financing district. 7. During the period of abatement, the total amount of property taxes abated by the City of Eagan by this and other resolutions shall not exceed the greater of (1) ten percent (10 %) of the City's net tax capacity or (2) $200,000. 8.

FACTS: General Background ➢ Greater MSP approached City staff several months ago indicating that a national data center operator named DataBank was pursuing the option of retrofitting the former Taystee Foods building at 3255 Neil Armstrong Boulevard to be a colocation data center. ➢ Greater MSP coordinated contacts between the company, the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development and the City in response to the Company's request for consideration of public financing assistance. ➢ In response and in consultation with the Finance Committee and members of the City Council, the letter as an attachment below was forwarded to the Company in February. It indicated the City would be open to considering financing assistance for the project, with the level of assistance to relate to the nature of the proposed facility. The item before the Committee is what was contemplated in the letter. ➢ Ordinarily, an application for public financing assistance requires an application fee of $1,000 and an escrow for out of pocket expenses of $10,000. In consideration of the alignment of the proposed project with the City priority to attract a colocation center and /or carrier hotel, staff is requesting consideration of a waiver of the application fee and escrow in this case. ➢ The specific components of the requested public financing package are outlined below. Minnesota Investment Fund Application ➢ The State has preapproved a Minnesota Investment Fund forgivable loan of $150,000 for DataBank, but it is still necessary for the City to approve and submit a Part II application, negotiate a loan agreement and administer the transaction. ➢ This process requires a public hearing, resulting in a resolution and appropriate findings to support the application. ➢ The MIT program requires a finding of public purpose, which in this case can be both job creation and responsiveness to a stated City priority of attracting a colocation data center and carrier hotel. ➢ If the Committee makes a recommendation to approve this application, an item to schedule public hearing would be placed on CC agenda for May 20, 2014 to hold the public hearing on June 17, 2014. Job Creation Fund Application ➢ In 2013, the state created the Minnesota Job Creation Fund to provide assistance to businesses forming new jobs within the state by expansion or location of businesses. ➢ The program provides assistance directly from the state to a business, but it does require an action by the host community to confirm its interest in the assistance being provided. ➢ The state has preapproved a JCF commitment to Databank in the amount of $270,000. ➢ If the Committee makes a recommendation to approve this application, no public hearing is required, but consideration of the item would be scheduled for the Council meeting on June 17, 2014 to coincide with the other assistance requests. Tax Abatement ➢ The Finance Committee has previously indicated openness to considering a recommendation to the City Council to amend its Business Financing Assistance Policy to permit consideration of Tax Abatement in specific circumstances related to Council priorities. One of those priorities has been a colocation data center, particularly one that would also be a carrier hotel. ➢ If the Committee recommends and the Council approves an amendment of the City's Business Assistance Policy to permit consideration of tax abatement for specified purposes, it is necessary to define the public purpose through a public hearing process. ➢ In this case, the applicant is not suggesting that a financing gap is present, but that assistance is being requested to incent the location of the facility at the Eagan site. Within the Tax Abatement law, the City may find that a public purpose is present without proof of a financing gap. ➢ If the Committee wishes to recommend assistance in this regard, staff recommends consideration of a condition that DataBank provide a definition of the proposed carrier hotel aspect of the project, which would be vetted by third party experts (the City may choose to ask members of the Technology Working Group or some other party to serve in this role). At some mutually agreed upon time, DataBank would be asked to provide confirmation that the criteria within the definition have been met, as a condition of continuing to receive the tax abatement assistance. ➢ If the Committee makes a recommendation to approve this application, an item to schedule public hearing would be placed on CC agenda for May 20, 2014 to hold the public hearing on June 17, 2014.

The majority of the Minneapolis - Saint Paul regions internet and phone traffic is currently routed through the 511 Building in downtown Minneapolis. Because this one facility manages so much activity, it has become a critical point of failure for the entire region. The proposed DataBank development will not only be a colocation data center facility but will offer state -of- the -art meet me rooms that will allow multiple telecommunication carriers to Interconnect and serve as a second 511 Building for the region and will offer redundancy and reliability to the network. DataBank's customized data center solutions allow Fortune 500's and other large companies to invest in their own businesses and not in data centers to accommodate their IT operations. The presence of DataBank's new facility will serve to bring the market for outsourced data center services to Minnesota and ensure large MN -based corporations keep their operations in MN and not to outsource facilities in other markets. Lastly, DataBank's presence in MN will attract users from other markets to the Mpls /St. Paul metro, The DataBank project in Eagan will rehabilitate the vacant Taystee bread facility that has been vacant for over 4 years. The company will be signing a 15 year lease -to -own agreement with Liberty Trust and will be investing $48 million in building renovations and new equipment. DataBank will provide managed data center services and will be hiring BO people within two years of becoming fully operational. We anticipate that our clients will invest an additional $15 -$20 million over 4 years. Additional public agency funding sources; In addition to the ask from the city for 100 percent tax abatement the new value of the property taxes for a carrier hotel data center project, DataBank has received a commitment from DEED for a $270,000 MN Job Creation Fund award, and a $150,000 forgivable Minnesota Investment Fund award that will help defer a portion of the business costs for the project.

To approve (OR direct preparation of findings of fact for denial for) a Preliminary Subdivision (CityVue Commons) to create six lots upon approximately 10 acres generally located south of Yankee Doodle Road, north of Town Centre Drive and west of Lexington Avenue, subject to the conditions listed in the APC minutes. Required Vote For Approval: ➢ Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment —At least four votes ➢ Preliminary Planned Development— Majority of Councilmembers present ➢ Preliminary Subdivision — Majority of Councilmembers present Facts: ➢ The —10 acre site is zoned Planned Development (PD). ➢ The northern portion of the property was platted in 1985 and developed with a 10 -story office building (vacant) and associated parking. ➢ The southern portion was replatted in 2008 and is undeveloped. ➢ The property is located within the Central Commons Special Area. ➢ Access is currently provided via Yankee Doodle Road and Town Centre Drive. ➢ The property is within the Shoreland Overlay District of O'Leary Lake, which requires Planned Development zoning for residential projects. ➢ One or more wetlands are present on the property. ➢ The property is surrounded by PD zoned properties consisting of office, retail and residential uses. Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment: ➢ The proposed land use amendment would change the designation of the subject site to Special Area /Mixed Use, allowing for a residential and commercial development. On February 25, 2014, the Advisory Planning Commission (APC) held a Public Hearing to consider the proposed Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment and did recommend approval on a vote of 5 -1. ➢ On March 4, 2014, the City Council directed the Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to be sent to the Metropolitan Council for review. ➢ The Metropolitan Council approved the proposed Comp Plan Amendment on June 11, 2014, allowing the City to implement the land use amendment. Preliminary Planned Development: ➢ The plan proposes four retail commercial buildings and two apartment buildings. ➢ The total retail building area is approximately 28,000 s.f. This includes at least one fast casual restaurant and a bank with drive - through. ➢ The proposal also includes three drive- throughs as well as on -sale and off -sale liquor for the commercial lots. ➢ The development plan includes renovation of the existing 10 story office building into a 112 unit apartment building and a second 90 unit apartment building on its own lot. ➢ The APC held a public hearing on the proposed Preliminary Planned Development on March 25, 2014 and did recommend approval. Preliminary Subdivision: ➢ The applicant is proposing to create six lots upon the subject site. The proposed plat (CityVue Commons) shows 40 feet of right -of -way dedication for Yankee Doodle Road. ➢ The proposed plat has been reviewed by the Dakota County Plat Commission, which responded on March 17, 2014, with some stipulations including the need for a traffic study. The review letter is attached for reference. ➢ The APC held a public hearing on the proposal at the March 25, 2014 meeting, and did recommend approval. Issues: ➢ The developer proposes a reduction in parking. Specifically, the proposed 518 stalls is a reduction from the 639 required, resulting in a deviation of 121 parking stalls. This has drawn a concern from the Eagan Fire Department (EFD) as multifamily parking requires two stalls per unit. The EFD has explained that even with curb painting and signage, people will park where they are able if stalls are unavailable. The developer has offered to delay development of the 90 unit apartment building on Lot 3 to allow verification of actual parking demand generated. A condition of approval was added to address this scenario. ➢ The developer proposes a number of other deviations from City Code through the Planned Development zoning, including reduced building, sign and parking setbacks, and reduced parking stall dimensions. 60 -Day Agency Action Deadline: Waived ATTACHMENTS: (8) OBA -1 Location Map OBA -2 February 25, 2014 APC Minutes (Comp Plan) OBA -3 March 4, 2014 City Council Minutes (Comp Plan) OBA -4 March 25, 2014 APC Minutes (Preliminary Subdivision and Preliminary PD) OBA -5 Met Council letter of approval re: Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment OBA -6 Staff report OBA -7 Exhibits OBA -8 March 17, 2014, Dakota County Plat Commission letter ip njnOD NVYIUD14S �7T -(OVONAIONN-1011d) (E:ON;H;V;e!--3, CD ,w co dVVY NOIIVOOI z U- 6 C> C4 as q �2 0 0 (1) 06 0 C) 04 0 0 V Uc > (D & 0 U 0 9 E ED (L 0 0 E tea P U) z E 6 m4i U) Z c % CD r cq o E —r, Ix < ip njnOD NVYIUD14S �7T -(OVONAIONN-1011d) (E:ON;H;V;e!--3, CD ,w co dVVY NOIIVOOI z U- 6 C> C4 �2 06 0 C) CD Uc < a- ED (L 0 tea P U) m4i ip njnOD NVYIUD14S �7T -(OVONAIONN-1011d) (E:ON;H;V;e!--3, CD ,w co dVVY NOIIVOOI Advisory Planning Commission February 25, 2014 Page 6of7 C.

He further explained that illegal parking issues, particularly on private property, are understandably low priority on the public safety enforcement spectrum. LonnieProvencher, Interstate Partners, discussed the project stating there will be 112 total units, 95 one bedroom units and 17 two bedroom units in the ten story building. Other developments in the metro area were discussed in relation to the proposed project and parking requirements and needs. There was discussion on parking and comparisons between the proposed development and similar developments in Minneapolis. It was stated that based upon recent trends the majority of one bedroom units will be occupied by one person, usually with only one vehicle. There was discussion on adjusting the placement of the road to allow for more parking on Lot 2. The applicant's engineer, John Bender, MFRA, explained that there may be flexibility to shift the road slightly to the east. Mr. Provencher suggested a possible option whereby the applicant would agree to delay development of Lot 3 for a period of 12 months beginning with lease out of the ten story building to monitor the actual parking demand generated. Parking could be expanded on Lot 3 if the assumed need for parking is inadequate. Mr. Provencher stated that they have been very deliberate in estimating the correct parking needs. Member Vanderpoel stated her support of the applicant's proposal to reevaluate the parking needs after the 12 month period of time and if needed, expand the parking to Lot 3. She asked Advisory Planning Commission March 25, 2014 Page 13 of 28 that the applicant meet with the Fire Department at the end of the 12 months to make sure concerns are addressed. Secretary Piper asked the applicant to speak more about potential medical office uses on the site, whether the same type of expenditure to convert the office use could revitalize the space as office and the possibility of senior housing on Lot 3. Mr. Provencher stated medical office users prefer to be in retail areas, preferable in single story buildings. He went on to say that medical users have expressed interest in the site. He also explained that regular office users in this submarket prefer to be near the 1 -494 corridor with good access to the interstate and airport. He went on to explain that millions of square feet of existing and potential office space exist in the southeast submarket. Mr. Provencher also shared that their housing consultant has indicated that there is little demand for senior housing. Chair Heaney opened the public hearing. There being no public comment, Chair Heaney closed the public hearing and turned the discussion back to the Commission. Secretary Piper asked staff to comment on whether the City has too much senior housing as he understood such a need still existed. City Planner Ridley explained that the demand for specialized housing is somewhat fluid depending on what is brought to market and when. He suggested that the recent approval and 2014 development of the Southview Senior Living facility likely has impacted the current snapshot of "the need" for senior housing.

V Metropolitan Council June 12, 2014 Sarah Thomas City of Eagan 3820 Pilot Knob Road Eagan, MN 55122 RE: City of Eagan, CityVuc Comprehensive Plan Amendment - Post Council Action Metropolitan Council Review File No. 20606 -14 Metropolitan Council District 15 Dear Sarah, At its meeting on June 11, 2014, the Metropolitan Council reviewed the City's Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA), based on the staff report. The amendment reguides 10 acres from Special Area /Office to Special Area /Mixed Use located south of Yankee Doodle Road, west of Lexington Avenue and north of Town Centre Drive. The purpose of the amendment is to redevelop a vacant office building into residential and also to develop commercial uses on the site. The Council found that the CPA conforms to the regional system plans for transportation, wastewater, and parks; is consistent with the 2030 Regional Development Framework and Council policies; and is compatible with the plans of adjacent jurisdictions. Therefore, the City may place the CPA into effect. A copy of the staff report to the Council is attached for your records. The Council will append the amendment, submission form and supplemental information to the City's plan in the Council's files. If you have any questions, please contact Patrick Boylan, Principal Reviewer at 651- 602 -1438.

It shall be the responsibility of the City Clerk to maintain the Water Quality Management Plan and make the same available to the public." Planned Development; City Code Chapter 11.60, Subd, 18, A., states the intent of the Planned Development zoning district as follows; 1. Providing greater flexibility in environmental design and relaxation of strict application of the zoning ordinance in exchange for greater creativity and environmental sensitivity. 2. Recognizing the economic and cultural advantages that will accrue to the residents of a planned community, 3. Encouraging a more creative and efficient approach to the use of the land. Planning Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Page 3 4. Encouraging the preservation and enhancement of desirable site characteristics, natural features, and open space. 5. Encouraging a development pattern that is consistent with land use density, transportation facilities and community facilities objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. BACICGROUNDMISTORY The subject property is zoned Planned Development. The northern portion of the property was platted in 1985 and construction of a 10 -story office building occurred that same year. The southern portion of the property was replatted in 2008 and remains undeveloped. To the west, there is a medical office building and retail store. To the south across Town Centre Drive are Dakota County CDA owned senior apartments. Properties to the east contain a variety of retail businesses. To the north, across Yankee Doodle Road is the Promenade retail development and apartment buildings. The land use designation in the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan is SA/OS (Special Area/Office Service); however, the applicant has applied to amend the Comprehensive Guide Plan to SA/MU (Special Area/Mixed Use). The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on February 25, 2014 and recommended approval of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment. The City Council directed city staff to submit the Comprehensive Plan Amendment to the Metropolitan Council on March 4, 2014. City staff is in the process of submitting the application to the Metropolitan Council; action by the Metropolitan Council is expected to take approximately 60 days from the date of submittal. Following Metropolitan Council review and action, the City Council could then approve the requested Comprehensive Plan Amendment. The proposed use would then be in accordance with the Comprehensive Guide Plan. EXISTING CONDITIONS The site is accessed from the north via Yankee Doodle Road and the south via Town Centre Drive, The 10 -stony office building was constructed in 1985 on the northern portion of the property. The building has been vacant for a few years. The majority of the site lies within the Shoreland Overlay District of O'Leary Lake. Plamiing Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Page 4 SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the subject property: EVALUATION OF REQUEST Description of Proposal — The applicant has proposed a mixed use development consisting of six lots. The plan proposes four retail commercial buildings and two apartment buildings. The total retail building area is 28,150 s.£ This includes at least one 3,000 s.f. fast casual restaurant and a 5,000 s.f; bank with drive through. The proposal also includes on -sale and off-sale liquor for the commercial lots. The development plan includes renovation of the existing 10 story office building into a 112 unit apartment building and a second 90 unit apartment building on its own lot. Preliminary Subdivision — The Preliminary Subdivision proposes to create 6 lots so each building is on a separate parcel. This is consistent with City Code requirements. 40' of public right of way is being dedicated for Yankee Doodle Road to satisfy Dakota County right-of-way width requirements. The Preliminary Plat and proposed development plan were submitted for review by the Dakota County Plat Commission. The County comments are provided in an attached exhibit and further described under the Streets /Access /Transportation section of this report. Because the streets within the development are proposed to be private, Lots 2 and 4, do not have the required minimum frontage on a public street. The City Code does allow landlocked parcels within a commercial complex for the purpose of establishing separate taxable parcels, provided the landlocked parcels have access to a public street by all easement over another parcel within the same commercial complex, as is proposed to be the case here, Compatibility with Surrounding Area — Surrounding development to the west includes a medical office building and a retail store. To the south across Town Centre Drive are Dakota County CDA owned senior apartments. Properties to the east contain a variety of retail businesses.

To the north, across Yankee Doodle Road is the Promenade retail development and apartment buildings, Planning Report— CityVue Cormnons March 25, 2014 Paize 5 Conformance with Comprehensive Guide Plan —'This proposal should be evaluated on how well it achieves the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Guide Plan. On March 4, 2014, the City Council heard a request to amend the land use designation of the subject site from Special Area /Office Service to Special Area /Mixed Use. The City Council indicated openness to residential development in this location and directed city staff to submit the amendment to the Metropolitan Council. City staff is in the process of doing so. The City's 2030 Comprehensive Guide Plan focused on three planning trends of Sustainability, Active Living, and Connectivity. These themes are woven throughout multiple chapters of the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan. In addition, the Central Commons Special Area Plan includes specific goals and policies that define the area as "an active, mixed use and walkable destination." Specific policies of the Central Commons Special Area Plan include; ➢ to support dense, mixed -use development with a range of retail, office, services, medium/high- density residential, employment and public space uses. 9 to respect existing site conditions and nature features — design with natural systems in mind. ➢ to allow Planned Development to be used when incorporating housing and mixed -use into developments. ➢ to utilize a shared or district parking approach to minimize the amount of spaces and size of parking lots. Where possible, use structured or underground parking. Break up large parking areas with landscaped drive aisles, islands and sidewalks. Planned Development and Public Benefit — The Planned Development zoning affords flexibility to both the applicant and the City with objectives that the mutual flexibility benefits both parties. The applicant's narrative states they believe the proposal to be the highest and best use of the property and addresses a concern shared at the Advisory Planning Commission meeting on February 25, 2014 regarding the loss of available office space. As part of the package, the applicant is requesting some deviations to typical Code requirements such as for building, sign and parking setbacks, parking stall dimensions and reduction in the number of parking stalls. Term — Staff suggests a five -year term for this Planned Development, Conforming_ Plan The applicant did not provide a Conforming Plan as the property is already zoned PD and a Plarmed Development is required to develop residential uses within Shoreland zoning. Airport Noise Considerations — The City of Eagan considered airport noise as a factor in its Comprehensive Guide Plan and has subsequently adopted zoning standards to assist with noise mitigation that are consistent with Metropolitan Council requirements. New construction as defined within those regulations is subject to noise attenuation requirements to limit negative impacts of aircraft noise on residents and inhabitants of structures located within established noise zones. In addition, the City of Eagan has elected to establish a one -mile noise buffer zone as an extension to Zone 4 to provide additional noise protection for sensitive uses. Plamling Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Pane 6 The City's adopted Comprehensive Guide Plan currently designates the subject site as O /S, Office /Service, within this Special Area. If the City determines that residential uses are appropriate on this site, City Code and regional policy provide guidance in gauging whether such uses can be compatible, provisionally or conditionally acceptable, or inconsistent. The subject site is located within the one -mile buffer area of Noise Policy Zone 4. The adopted zoning standards consider both retail commercial uses and multiplex /apartment uses as Compatible within the Noise Buffer Zone and no further noise mitigation is required. Units /Density — To evaluate the applicant's proposal, density is first calculated by what is proposed (the number of units divided by the gross /net site areas), then compared against what is required or allowed in the comparable R -4 zoning district. Proposed — The applicant is proposing 202 units on a gross site area of 4.16 acres, resulting in a gross density of 49 units per acre (202 units /4.16 acres), To put this into perspective, the Eagan Pointe Senior Living (located off Diffley /Blackhawk Rds) development approved in 2013 had a density of 22.6 units per acre. The more recent Flats at Cedar Grove development has a density of 38.15 units per acre, with 190 units on 4.98 acres. The two examples of recent multi - family densities reflect new "ground up" development. Required — R -4 zoning requires a minimum site area of 2,750 sq. ft, of area per unit. The City Code allows a credit of 300 sq, ft. per unit for each unit served by underground garage stalls. With 202 units and 90 underground garage stalls, the required site area would be 12.13 acres (the equivalent of 17 units per acre; the same as the Eagan Pointe Sr. project). The site area is less than 12 acres and the proposed density exceeds 17 units per acre and thus, deviates from typical R -4 zoning standards. While the proposed density is greater than is typically seen in Eagan, staff suggests consideration of the reuse of the existing 10 -story building as well as the goals and policies within the Comprehensive Plan for the Central Area. It would appear that the development is consistent with the goal of achieving density and respecting existing site conditions. Shoreland — The property is located within the Shoreland Overlay District of O'Leary Lake; therefore, a more restrictive density requirement applies to the site. However, a portion of the stormwater runoff from the site moves away from O'Leary Lake ultimately ending up in LeMay Lake, O'Leary Lake is designated as a General Development Lake in the Shoreland Zoning provisions of the City Code. The City has adopted the State DNR's model shoreland ordinance. This section of the City Code requires density to be calculated in 200 foot wide tiers banding out from the OHWL of O'Leary Lake. To encourage lower densities in tiers nearest the lake and greater densities in the outer tiers, Shoreland Zoning allows a density Planning Report — CityWe Commons March 25, 2014 Paj4e 7 increase within each tier provided certain perfonnance standards are satisfied, which is the case for this proposal. The residential density permitted on this site by the Shoreland Zoning within 1,000 feet of the OHWL is 70 units as identified in the table below. The proposed density is 202 units which is more than what is allowed. The DNR was routed a copy of the submittal and provided little direction in the way of evaluation, stating that "the proposal is reasonable." Shoreland Area (acres) Allowable units (area of tier /single family lot size) Density Increase (percent) Allowable units with density increase Actual # units Tier 1 NA NA NA NA N A Tier 2 0.14 .50 100 _NA -1-0 0 Tier 3 1.53 5.55 200 17 90 Tier 4 2.17 7.87 200 24 0 Tier 5 2.57 9.33 200 28 112 Total 6.41 acres 70 202 The Shoreland Zoning District also has a formula for commercial planned developments. The applicant provided floor area ratios (FAR's) for this calculation. This calculation method results in 98 allowable units, still less than that being proposed. Shoreland Area (acres) Allowable Units (Area of tier /single family lot size) Density Increase (percent) Allowable units with density increase Actual # units Tier 1 NA NA NA NA NA Tier 2 0.14 0.7 100 1.4 0 Tier 3 1.53 7.8 200 23.4 90 Tier 4 2.17 11.2 200 33.6 0 Tier 5 2.57 13.2 200 39.6 112 Total 6.41 acres 98 202 A portion of the development is beyond the 1,000 feet of the OHWL, thus is not located within the Shoreland Overlay District. This includes a portion of the retail development adjacent to Yankee Doodle Road. In summary, while the proposed units exceed what is allowed in both the Residential and Commercial Planned Development formulas, staff suggests the purpose of this code be taken into consideration. The purposes being open space provided for (O'Leary Park), viewsheds preserved (development nonriparian and separated by existing multi- family development/ public roadway), density increases in the furthest tiers and limited impervious. As described in the Building Coverage and Impervious Surface section of the retort the total amount of Planning Report — CityVue Commons Match 25, 2014 Page 8 additional impervious surface added equates to 13 % which is less than the maximum 25% allowed. Lastly, the City has approved and implemented a community -wide stormwater management plan has required the necessary water quality mitigation features to meet non - degradation standards for phosphorus for the nearest downstream recreational waterbody. Site Plan — Four retail /commercial buildings including two fast casual restaurants and a bank along with two apartments are proposed on six lots. A north/south private street bisects the site, Parking is designed to be shared amongst the 10 -story apartment building and commercial uses to the east. The applicant should submit a revised Site Plan that identifies all public drainage and utility easements. Lots — The Preliminary Subdivision proposes to create 6 lots. The lot sizes are listed below; Lot 1 = 1.25 acres Lot 2 = 2.74 acres Lot 3 = 2.16 acres Lot 4 = 1.46 acres Lot 5 = 0.85 acres Lot 6 = 0.78 acres Lot 1 is designed as a 10,000 s.f, inline retail building with a fast casual restaurant. Patio dining and a drive through are proposed. Lot 2 is designed as a renovation of the existing 10 -story office building into 112 apartment units. Lot 3 is also designed as an apartment building with 90 units. Lots 4, 5 and 6 are retail in nature, varying from fast casual and bank to general retail. The total amount of retail proposed on site is 28,150 s.£ Uses — Specific users have not been identified with this Preliminary Development plan. With no specific users identified, the Plamied Development will provide for uses that are considered permitted in CSC zoning districts. Future uses that are considered a conditional use in CSC zoning, unless specifically included in the Preliminary PD (e.g, on -sale liquor, off-sale liquor, drive - through service) will require a Planned Development Amendment. Restaurants — Fast casual restaurants are proposed both as a single- occupant in a free- standing building (Lot 5) and as a tenant in multi- tenant buildings (Lots 1 and 4). • On -Sale Liquor — The applicant has requested that full on -sale liquor or on -sale beer /wine be permitted on Lots 1, 4, 5 and 6, All on -sale liquor will be subject to separate licenses. • Off -Sale Liquor — The applicant has also requested that off-sale liquor be permitted on the commercial parcels, Lots 1, 4, 5 and 6. Planning Report— CityVue Conunons March 25, 2014 Page 9 Outdoor Patio /Deck dining -- Both the single - occupant free- standing building (Lot 5) and the multi - tenant building (Lot 1) are shown to have outdoor dining patios. City Code considers outdoor dining areas of more than 24 seats to be a conditional use. Specific performance standards are outlined in Section 11.70, Subd. 29, of the City Code for outdoor dining areas. All outdoor dining areas should be designed and operated consistent with these standards. For each outdoor dining area, a detailed patio seating plan should be provided at the time of Final Planned Development. Outdoor patio dining should meet City Code requirements of Sec. 11.70, Subd. 29, including: a) Outdoor dining areas shall be set back a minimum of 20' from public rights -of -way and from internal private streets. b) Outdoor dining areas shall not interfere with any pedestrian traffic or walkways intended for the general public. e) Outdoor dining areas shall be enclosed by a fence if seating is provided for more than 24, or if alcoholic beverages are served within the outdoor dining area. d) Parking in the amount of 1 stall for each 12 outdoor seats is required for outdoor dining areas of more than 24 seats. e) All sewer availability charges imposed as a result of additional seating in the outdoor dining area shall be paid prior to the operation of any business within the outdoor dining area. Restaurants with drive - through service — Drive through service restaurants are proposed on Lots 1 and 5. Any changes to restaurant uses for additional drive - through service will require an Amendment to the Preliminary Platmed Development. .Drive - through service — A 5,000 s.f. bank with drive- through service is proposed for Lot 6. The Site Plan provides three drive - through service lanes and an ATM /bypass lane with stacking for five vehicles in each. Bulk Standards — Bulk standards are typically calculated on an individual lot basis, most often with the front yard setback measured from the public right-of-way. The applicant is proposing two internal lots that do not to have public street frontage and a majority of the setbacks are not met. Planned Development zoning allows for such deviations, which is reflected in the analysis below. Building Setbacks -- Typical building setbacks in a commercial retail area would be: 0 50' from a major thoroughfare (Yankee Doodle) 0 30' from public right of way 0 10' from side lot lines 0 20' from rear lot lines Planning Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Pave 10 Typical building setbacks in a R -4 district would be: 0 50' from a major thoroughfare (Yankee Doodle) 0 50' from front yard 0 30' from side /rear lot lines The retail buildings proposed on Lots 1, 4, 5 and 6 meet building setback requirements as does the existing 10 -story structure on Lot 2, Lot 3 does not meet the front, side (west) or rear yard setback requirements. 0 22' proposed front yard 0 18' 9" proposed side (west) 0 24' proposed rear yard The proposed deviations to building setbacks are a policy matter for City officials. If found acceptable, the deviations can be accommodated through the Planned Development zoning. Shoreland — Shoreland Zoning establishes a 50 -foot minimum structure setback from the OHWL of O'Leary Lake. This requirement is met as the first tier or 200 feet from the OHWL, is outside of this proposed development. Parking and Pavement Setbacks — The required setback for parking and pavement is 20' from public rights -of -way and 5' from side /rear yards. The applicant proposes the parking setback to Yankee Doodle Road to vaiy between 4'10" and 6'. As described in the applicant's narrative, this setback assumes a 40' dedication of public right -of -way, "Although the parking lot setback is shown to be as minimal as 4'10", the current parking Held extends approximately 10' into the proposed ROW dedication area, resulting in a reduction of approximately 15' of parking across the front of the proposed development." As with the building setbacks, the proposed deviations to parking/pavement setbacks are a policy matter for City officials. If found acceptable, the deviations can be accommodated through the Planned Development zoning. Parking should be separated from the private streets within the development, to provide for landscaping, snow storage areas and to facilitate internal traffic flow. Parking is set back from the internal streets by continuous islands, or individual islands, which serve this purpose. Green Space — Green space serves two functions, both to provide permeable surface in a development and to provide aesthetic benefit. The City's commercial zoning districts require a minimum green space ratio of 30 %. There is not a green space requirement for R -4 zoning. Overall, this development provides 36% pervious coverage which meets City Code requirements. Planning Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 PaEe 11 Height — The R -4 zoning district maximum height allowed is 60 ft. The existing 10 -story (apartment) building on Lot 2 is 159 ft, in total height. This includes the penthouse on the top floor which houses a community room and fitness center. The Planned Development can allow this deviation as it is an existing condition. All new buildings should meet the height requirements. Recreation Space -- The City Code requires towiilaome and apartment developments to provide a minimum recreation area of 200 square feet for each unit containing two or fewer bedrooms, and an additional 100 square feet for each unit containing more than two bedrooms. The applicant submitted floor plans for the 112 unit apartment building that identify all units being two bedrooms or fewer. Using this standard, a total of 22,400 sq. ft, of recreation space would need to be provided within the site. The recreational amenities for the 112 -unit building include a community room and fitness center on the penthouse level. This area combined is 10,581 sq, ft. Additional recreational space is provided throughout the site, such as with the exterior plaza and unit patios. Staff suggests the trails along the streets and ponding area to the west be considered as recreation area versus the individual unit patios. The roof deck area may also be considered. The applicant should revise the total figure with the Final Planned Development submittal. The Planned Development could accommodate a deviation from this requirement if necessary. The 90 unit apartment building should also provide unit information and recreation space to meet City Code requirements of 18,000 sq, ft. at time of Final Planned Development application. Storage Space — The City Code requires townhome and apartment developments to provide 150 cubic feet of storage space per unit, in addition to the closet and storage area within the unit, which equates to 16,500 cu, ft, for the 112 -unit building. The applicant submitted floor plans for the 112 unit apartment building. The lower level and first floor plans identify 17,910 cu. ft, of tenant. storage space available which exceeds City Code requirements, The 90 unit apartment building should also provide storage space to meet City Code requirements of 13,500 cu, ft, at time of Final Planned Development application. Building Coverage and Impervious Surface — The City Code sets a maximum building to lot area ratio of 20% for R -4 zoning and 30% for CSC zoning. Since a portion of the project consists of redevelopment of an existing office building, deviations to this requirement exist. However, the development proposes a total building coverage ratio of approximately 19 % (81,205 sq, ft. /9,80 acres). The building coverages are listed below: Lot 1 = 18.3% Lot 2 = 24.7% Lot 3 = 22.4% Lot 4 = 16% Lot s =8.1% Lot 6= 14.8% Planning Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Page 12 Since this property is within the Shoreland Overlay District, the maximum impervious surface area requirement is 25 %. However, a majority of the parcel is already developed with a significant amount of hardcover between the office building and associated surface parking lots. The total amount of additional impervious surface added equates to 13% which is less than the maximum 25% allowed. The overall impervious surface on this site is 63.9 %. This is a deviation to City Code standards; however, the stormwater drainage and water quality evaluations indicate that the proposed development satisfactorily manages stormwater runoff. Fire Protection — To provide and maintain emergency vehicle access, "Fire Lane/No Parking" signs should be installed along the curb line within the development as noted on the Emergency access plan LL2 in all shaded areas to ensure they be kept open for emergency vehicle access. Also, the development should provide hydrant spacing and locations in accordance with City Fire Department and Public Works standards. Si_ nag — The plan proposes entry monuments at the east and west corners of the development at Yankee Doodle, and a monument at the south entrance to the site at Town Centre Drive. A pylon sign is also proposed at the north entrance to the site. Additionally, lots 1 and 5 have menu board signs for their drive throughs. In multi -lot developments, the City Code requires the design and placement of monument and directional signs be coordinated through an overall signage plan. Therefore, a Master Signage Plan should be created to identify which tenants from what lots will be served by each pylon and monument sign. To establish sign placement, size and design parameters for the development, a Master Sign Agreement should be provided, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney, to be executed and recorded against the property. The monument and pylon signs include rock faced concrete block, brick, and stone veneer to reflect building materials. The pylon sign include the development name, "CityVue Commons" in halo lit aluminum letters. Staff suggests the development name be added to the monument signs as well to provide for a cohesive signage plan. Neither directional nor dynamic signs are proposed. Pylon Sign — A pylon sign is proposed at the entrance to the site from Yankee Doodle Road. The pylon sign is proposed to be 27' in height. Calculating the sign panels and the development name, the sign face is 122 s.f. in area. Both the overall height and square footage are within City Code requirements. Monument Signs --- Monument signs are proposed at the east and west perimeter of the property adjacent to Yankee Doodle Road as well as the south entrance along Town Centre Drive. The monument signs are proposed to be 7' in height with a 4' sign face which meets City Code requirements. These monuments will provide shared tenant identification signage. Sign Setbacks - Typically, free- standing monument and pylon signs must have a 10' setback from public right -of -way. Reduced setbacks are proposed for the monument and pylon signs along Yankee Doodle Road and Town Centre Drive. The dedication of Planning Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Page 13 additional right -of -way along Yankee Doodle Road has constrained the setback area for that signage. Reduced setbacks can be accommodated through the Planned Development. The acceptability of the proposed setbacks is a policy matter for City officials. The monument sign adjacent to Town Centre Drive should meet the 10' setback requirement. Proposed Setback Monument (Yankee Doodle/West) 3' Monument (Yankee Doodle /East) 2' Pylon (Yankee Doodle) 4) Monument (Town Centre) 5 Building signage — Building signage detail has been provided for Lots 1 and 2. Lot 1, the 10,000 s.f, retail building, proposes building signage on all sides but for the rear of the building. Lot 2, the 10 -story apartment building, proposes signage on the east and west elevations as well as a product sign? above the entrance, Pertaining to the inline retail buildings, all sign panels should be distributed evenly (e.g. 10 foot width or 12 foot width for all) and provide space for visual clarity between the brick and EIFS materials on the building. A two -foot spacing should suffice. End units are allowed wall signage on two elevations and interior units are allowed wall signage on one elevation per Code. Canopies /Awnings — The proposed canopies on Lot 1 are to be constructed of metal. Similar retail commercial developments have been allowed Sunbrella, Arlon or Canvas material for fabric awnings, which would also be allowed; however, the same type of material should be used on the building. These materials have been included as a condition of approval to ensure consistency and quality. Further, the canopies /awnings should not allow for additional tenant identification. Menu Boards — The City Code does not regulate menu boards per se; however, the height should not exceed 7' which is the maximum height allowed per City Code for free- standing signs. Telecommunications — The City of Eagan created the Eagan Technology Task Force in February 2004. This group was charged with researching and providing recommendations relative to broadband and fiber optic telecommunications networks within the community. The Task Force created a report that was presented to the Eagan City Council in December 2004. Part of the Policy Framework states; The City should establish and maintain an enviromnent to encourage and provide state of the art and diverse telecommunications infrastructures to assist in the recruitment and retention of residents, organizations and businesses of all sizes. Recognizing that telecommunications is central to economic development and quality of life, the City needs to maintain an ongoing effort to ensure that Eagan stays competitive in this important area. Planning Report — CityVue Conunons March 25, 2014 Page 14 Due to the proposed ground up redevelopment of this site, introduce these technologies in its development plans so Framework statement above. Buildings the applicant has an opportunity to that it is consistent with the Policy Architectural Materials — City Code requires new buildings in commercial districts to utilize at least two Class I materials and be finished with at least 65% Class I materials. Not more than 35% may be Class 11 or II materials, and not more than 10% Class IV materials. The applicant provided elevation plans for Lot 1 (10,000 sq. ft, retail). o Class I materials include masonry brick and glass • Class II materials - NA • Class III materials include EIFS and ornamental metal All but the south elevation meet the requirements. The south elevation does not consist of two Class I materials. Although this is the rear of the building, it will be quite visible to tenants in the 10 -story apartment building. The applicant should revise the south elevation to meet material requirements with the Final Planned Development submittal. The 10 - story office building is comprised of stone, glass and metal panel accents which meet City Code requirements. Modifications to the exterior include window alterations, additional metal accents, a new parapet cap and the addition of the fitness and community room atop the building. Building Design — City Code requirements require four -sided architecture on new construction. All buildings should have the same architectural treatments on all sides as the mixed use development includes residential components. Detailed elevations should be provided at the time of Final Planned Development for each lot and building. All buildings in the development should utilize the same architectural finish materials and features and all building elevations throughout the development should be consistent and must be approved at the time of Final Planned Development. Additionally, the Final Building Elevations provided at the time of Final Planned Development for each building should be revised, if necessary, to ensure visual relief with sections or variations in planes and materials every 40 feet, per City Code standards. Screening of Mechanical Units — Specific needs for rooftop and ground mechanical equipment will be determined by final tenants and users, The building architecture for Lot 1 does include parapet walls with a 30" minimum height designed to provide screening of rooftop equipment. The elevation plans should also indicate that equipment will be placed 20' fi -om the edge of buildings as required by City Code, and depicted on final drawings for Building Permit, Planning Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Paae 15 Trash Storage — Per City Code, all trash and recycling shall be located indoors or in an enclosure attached to the principal building. Some trash storage areas are depicted within the principal building; however, several of the buildings do not show a trash enclosure. if no trash storage is indicated, trash must be stored within the principal structures. At the time of Final Planned Development or Building Permit for each building, a trash enclosure may be incorporated into the final plans once exact tenants and uses are known. Where an outdoor enclosure may be proposed, the enclosure shall be attached to the principal building, constructed of materials to match the principal structure, not less than 6' in Height nor more than 10' in height, with gates having not less than 90 % opacity. The enclosure should also be of a size that can accommodate both trash and recyclable materials storage. Parking — Parking is calculated on a per lot basis. All parking areas are proposed to be surfaced with bituminous with concrete curb and gutter perimeter and around islands. Number of stalls — The applicants narrative addresses proposed deviations from parking requirements. The Site Plan notes the proposed 518 stalls is a reduction from the 639 required, resulting in a deviation of 121 parking stalls. The applicant also proposes shared parking between the 10 -story apartment building and Lots 5 and 6. Such an accommodation can be made through the Planned Development. While the parking deviation is quite significant, the applicant's narrative provides a parking analysis supporting a reduction in parking, specifically for the apartment buildings. City Policyrnakers should determine if the parking deviations are acceptable. City Code standards are as follows; Multiple dwellings = 1 enclosed or 1 underground per unit and 1 outdoor Retail Uses = 1 stall /200 s.f. up to 10,000 s.£ 1 stall /250 s.f. up between 10,001 and 30,000 s.f. Bank Use= 1 stall /250 s.f. for 10,000 s.f. Restaurant Uses =1 stall /3 seats based on design capacity Restaurant with Drive - through = 1 stall /60 s.£. (g.£a) Parking calculation per lot (which may vary with final tPnn„ ts), Lot Required Proposed Deviation 1 79 68 -11 2* 224 (112 surface) -- 169 (33 surface w/shared parking) -55 3 180 (90 surface) 120 48 surface) -60 4* 86 87 NA 5* 50 51 NA 6 20 42 NA * 19 stalls proposed for shared parking between these 3 lots Planning Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Pave 16 The Eagan Fire Department (EFD) has reviewed the proposed development plans and shared a concern over the parking stall deviation. EFD does not consider 1.3 parking stalls per unit adequate space to park without creation of parking congestion and emergency vehicle access issues. Further, EFD spoke with staff at Ballantrae Apartments (recently redeveloped) and found the ratio of parking is two parking spots per one apartment. According to the manager, most of Ballantrae 1BR units have the need of two parking stalls per unit. Additionally, Ballantrae Apartment staff stated experiencing overflow parking issues when people use the community building, inviting guests to events, as well as reduced stall availability in winter months with snow buildup, Stall Size — Parking stalls are proposed to be 9' wide by 18' deep. This is a deviation from the City Code standard of 10' x 19'. A 9' stall width has been utilized elsewhere in the City, including Eagan Promenade and City decision makers and staff have been told previously that the 9' stall width is consistent with industry standards. The applicant's narrative notes the proposed stall dimension is a previous market standards and "is more applicable to infill and urban development where density maximum land utilization is encouraged." Minneapolis and St. Paul examples are provided in the narrative. City Polieymakers should determine if this deviation is acceptable. Aisle Width — City Code requires two -way drive aisles in parking lots to be a minimum of 24' in width. This requirement is met. Islands — The landscape section of the City Code requires planting islands to visually break up expanses of hard surface parking areas, to provide safe and efficient traffic movement, and to define rows of parking. This requirement is met. Landscaping — The proposed Landscape Plan is acceptable with minor modifications. The Landscape Plan utilizes 15 species of shade /ornamental trees, 1 species of conifer, 15 shrub varieties and 21 species of perennials and ornamental grasses. A Final Landscape Plan will be required for each lot with the Final Planned Development. The applicant should separate the shade and ornamental trees located within the plant schedule and verify quantities. Foundation plantings should be enhanced, particularly on Lots 5 and 6 near the drive- throughs. The plantings should also meet minimum size requirements per City Code as follows; Deciduous overstory /shade — 2'/Z caliper inches Deciduous understory /ornamental — 1 '/2 caliper inches Coniferous — 6' Hedge and shrubs — 3' Since nearly the entire site will be graded and replanted with the redevelopment, the proposed Landscape and Mitigation Plan should be evaluated for the overall effect of both landscape and mitigation plantings on the site. Staff notes that a majority of the existing trees (80 %) are Planning Report — CityVue Conunons March 25, 2014 Page 1'7 proposed to be removed, as further discussed under the Tree Preservation section of this report. This includes the existing mature confers adjacent to Yankee Doodle Road. The Landscape Plan provides a significant amount of evergreen sluubs in this location to provide screening from vehicle headlights to the adjacent public right -of =way. For the purpose of separating quantities and verifying that mitigation needs are being met, the mitigation plantings are identified separately as well as cumulatively on the Planting Plan, The Planting Plan appears acceptable. Lastly, overstory trees should be placed so as not to conflict with pole lighting or utilities such as hydrants. Overstory trees should be planted within parking islands wherever possible to maximize shade coverage of pavement areas. Li- ghting — There are several levels and types of lighting proposed within this development, all consisting of LED fixtures. Street and adjacent parking lot lighting is provided along the east side of the private street with both single and double arm fixtures mounted on 25' poles. Pedestrian lighting is provided along the west side of the private street, adjacent to the sidewalk with post top style fixtures mounted on 20' poles. Buildings will be accented with wall sconces. All lighting utilized should be shielded so the source of light is not visible from off the property and to prevent glare. All parking lot lighting should provide a minimum of 0.5 footcandles throughout, with an average to minimum ratio of not more than 4. A Final Lighting Plan will be required for each lot with the Final Planned Development. Topog-r_aphy /Grading — The northern half of the site is currently developed with a 10 -story building and parking lots. The northern edge of the site is treed along the Yankee Doodle Road right-of-way. The southern half of the site is undeveloped and lightly treed. The entire site will be disturbed for development/re- development of the site, The high point is approximately in the middle of the site; the property slopes down toward the perimeter of the property. Elevations range from approximately 928 to 900. The preliminary Grading Plan is acceptable with modification. A detailed grading, drainage, erosion, and sediment control plan should be prepared in accordance with current City standards and codes prior to final subdivision approval. All erosion/sediment control plans submitted for development and grading permits should be prepared by a designer who has received current Minnesota Department of Transportation (MNDOT) training, or approved equal training as determined by the City Engineer in designing stormwater pollution prevention plans. Also, all personnel responsible for the construction and management of erosion/sediment control devices, and the establishment of vegetation for the development, should have received Erosion/Sediment Control site management certification through the University of Minnesota, or approved equal training as determined by the City Engineer. Erosion control measures should be installed and maintained in accordance with City code and engineering standards. The Grading Plan shows construction of a retaining wall on the neighboring property to the east located within a drainage and utility easement. The applicant should obtain a temporary Planning Report — CityVue Cormnons March 25, 2014 Page 18 construction easement for any off -site work, and re- locate the retaining wall outside of all drainage and utility easements. The applicant should provide a minimum of 15- foot -wide unobstructed equipment access path (Without obstructions from grading, private utilities, trees, large shnibs, etc.), from street -edge to all stormwater facilities' inlets /outlets. The unobstructed equipment access path should be capable of supporting typical maintenance /excavation equipment, for periodic maintenance access to the pond and infiltration basin, Utilities -- The preliminary Utility Plan is acceptable. Trunk water main of sufficient size and capacity is available along the north and south sides of the site for connection and extension with development of the property. A public water main "loop" is to be constructed with the proposed development to provide redundancy in the system and reduce the likelihood of shutting down the entire development when maintenance or repairs are being performed. Trunk and lateral sanitary sewer of sufficient size, depth, and capacity is available along the south and east sides of the site for connection and extension with development of the property. Sanitary sewer Districts C (west half) and N (east half), as designated in the City's Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer Plan, serve the site. With the exception of the water main loop, all utilities are proposed to be privately owned and maintained. Private utility easements and /or maintenance agreements for the private utilities should be provided in a form acceptable to the City Attorney. Streets /Access /Transportation — Yankee Doodle Road (CSAH 28), along the north edge of the site, is a four -lane divided roadway with a bituminous trail in the north boulevard and a concrete sidewalk in the south boulevard. Town Centre Drive, along the south edge of the site, is a two lane local street with concrete sidewalks on both sides of the road. The proposed development shows construction of a 32' wide private street with full access onto both roadways. The applicant should provide a private maintenance agreement for the private street, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney, at the time of Final Subdivision approval. The proposed development also includes construction of an eastbound right turn lane off of Yankee Doodle Road, and potential internal parking lot connections to the Culvers property to the east and the Access Lifts property to the south. The applicant also indicated they are working on a connection to the Best Buy property to the west. A traffic study should be prepared at the Yankee Doodle Road intersection to determine the anticipated traffic volumes and capacity, appropriate traffic control needs, geometry and alignment configurations, turn lanes, etc, in a manner acceptable to both the City Engineer and County Engineer. The alignment of the private street with Promenade Avenue to the north should be approved by both the City Engineer and County Engineer. The applicant has requested consideration for construction of a traffic signal at the Yankee Doodle Road intersection. Consideration will be given by both the City and County if minimum design criteria are met and if the private street functions as a public roadway to accommodate traffic fiom the surrounding area. It appears the preliminary Site Plan adequately addresses the requested criteria. The applicant should prepare an Intersection Control Evaluation in a manner Planning Report — CityVue Corrmons March 25, 2014 Page 19 acceptable to both the City Engineer and County Engineer at the Yankee Doodle Road intersection. The Site Plan includes a trail around the wetland to the west, and a sidewalk along the western boulevard of the private street to connect the existing sidewalks along Yankee Doodle Road and Town Centre Drive, and a sidewalk through the parking lots on the east side of the site. Long term plans for the Dakota County Greenway Corridor includes a possible Yankee Doodle Road pedestrian crossing (either an overpass or underpass) in this vicinity. It appears the future crossing, if constructed, would need to be funded through a combination of Federal and County funds. The County has requested the applicant take into consideration that this may be a major pedestrian corridor. The applicant has indicated they may include an additional trail section along the western property line to connect the sidewalk on City Centre Drive with the trail around the pond, Since the general public would have access to the trails /sidewalks on site, an access agreement or trail easement should be provided for the major connection between City Centre Drive and Yankee Doodle Road. Easements /Permits /Right -of -Way — The proposed Preliminary Plat shows public drainage and utility easements over private stormwater related infrastructure at the southeast corner of the development (east side of Lots 2 and 3, and south side of Lot 4). The drainage and utility easements should be removed over the stormwater pond, infiltration basin, and storm sewer pipes. Standard lot line drainage and utility easements still apply. There is currently 160' of right-of-way for Yankee Doodle Road, which is anticipated to be upgraded to a 6 -lane roadway sometime in the future. The Dakota County Plat Cominission reviewed the plat and finds 200' of right-of-way necessary. The applicant proposes to dedicate 40' of additional right-of-way. No additional right of way is anticipated to be needed for Town Centre Drive. The applicant should dedicate right-of-way along Yankee Doodle Road (County 28), in accordance with Dakota County standards, and easements for future traffic signal loops and equipment and over any public utilities installed in the development. The main water main loop connecting Yankee Doodle Road to Town Centre Drive is proposed to be public. All other utilities will remain private. The applicant should dedicate public drainage & utility easements over all public utilities at a minimum width of 20 feet. The Site Plan accounts for the future construction of a traffic signal at the private street intersection with Yankee Doodle Road. The applicant should dedicate a public easement of sufficient size for the placement of future traffic signal loop detectors and equipment. The applicant should be responsible for acquiring all outside agency permits and approvals, Financial Obligation — At this time, there are no pending assessments on the parcels included with this development. Based upon a study by City staff of the financial obligations collected in the past and proposed use for the property, the following estimated charges will be collected at time of final plat or Planning Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Page 20 connection to the City's utility system. The final charges will be computed using the rates in effect at time of connection or platting. The estimated financial obligation is subject to change based upon the areas, dimensions and land uses contained in the final subdivision or plat, with due allowances for easements and right -of- -way required with the plat: Improvement Use Rate Quantity Amount Water Main - Trunk PD $3,121/ ac 9.80 acres $30,586 Sanitary Sewer - Trunk PD $2,956/ ac 9.80 acres $28,969 Total $591555 Wetlands — There are two wetland areas on this parcel, one in the western portion ( "Wetland 111) and one in the southern portion ( "Wetland 2 "). Minn, Rules Ch. 8420, Wetland Conservation Act (WCA), and City Code §11.67, Wetland Protection and Management Regulations, together require boundaries, types, and classifications of such wetland areas be determined. Accordingly, the applicant has submitted to the City two applications, one requesting the City to approve its delineation and type report and to classify "Wetland 1," and the other requesting a detennination that "Wetland 2" is not subject to WCA rules because it is not a natural wetland, The City decision on "Wetland 1" is scheduled for May 16, 2014, which will allow field verification of the wetland in the spring. The decision on "Wetland 2" is scheduled for March 21, 2014. The applicant is not proposing to impact any wetland areas by this development. The proposal will have to fiilfill City Code §11.67 requirements regarding Wetland Buffers, Stotxnwater Management /Water Quality — The preliminary storm drainage plan is acceptable with modification. The entire site lies within Drainage District D (as designated in the City Storm Water Management Plan — 2007). The applicant proposes to add approximately 57,182 square feet (1.31 acres) of impervious surface to the site, resulting in impervious coverage of approximately 64% of the 9.8 acre site. Runoff from the northeast portion of the existing site's impervious area flows off-site to DP -5, a stormwater wetland basin, which is in the LeMay Lake watershed, while the remainder of the site's existing impervious in the west/south portion of the site flows to DP -20, a stormwater wetland basin on the west boundary of the site, which is in the O'Leary Lake watershed. This development will need to comply with the City's Post Construction Requirements (City Code §433) for stormwater management and surface water quality, including Runoff Rate Control, Total Phosphorus (TP) & Total Suspended Solids (TSS) Control, and Volume Control. City Water Quality and Volume Control requirements apply to any new impervious area. The applicant currently proposes to meet the 4.33 requirements through the construction of a stormwater (wet detention) pond and an infiltration (bioretention) basin. The majority of the proposed site's impervious area, after being directed through the pond and infiltration basin for treatment /volume reduction, would discharge to DP -5. Tree Preservation — A tree inventory submitted with this application indicates there are eighty. three (83) significant trees currently existing on site. According to the Tree Preservation Plan Planning Report — Cityvue Conunons March 25, 2014 Page 21 submitted, significant tree impacts will result in the removal of sixty -seven (67) significant trees (80.7% of the total). Per the City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance, allowable tree removal for this type of development proposal (single- phase, multiple -unit residential and commercial) is set at 47.5 %.of the total significant trees. Because the proposed significant tree removal is more than allowed without mitigation, required tree mitigation calculates to sixty -eight (68) Category B trees (or an equivalent combination of Category A and /or C trees). The applicant has submitted a Tree Mitigation Plan that indicates the installation of forty -nine (49) Category B trees and nine (9) Category A trees (an equivalent of sixty -seven (67) Category B). Parks and Recreation Park Dedication — The proposed development is located in the service district served by O'Leary Park, located immediately to the south of the development site. The Northview Park athletic complex and the Eagan Community Center /Central Park sites are within a radius of less than two miles and are accessible via existing trails. Since the development site is not immediately adjacent to an existing park and has been disturbed or built upon as part of prior developments, there is a very limited benefit to a land dedication thus a cash dedication maybe appropriate. The property was platted in 1985 and at that time, park dedication was satisfied. Park dedication has not been satisfied for the undeveloped parcel, Lot 3, the 90 unit apartment building. As such, park dedication should be sought only for the undeveloped portion of the site. Classification: High Density Residential / Retail Commercial Residential 2014 Apartment /Multi Unit Rate = $3212 per unit ® Lot 2 (10 story) /Dedication satisfied as part of original development ® Lot 3 / 90 Units @ $ 3212 = $289,080 Total Residential Dedication due = $289,080 Commercial /Retail Lots 1,4,5,6 / Dedication satisfied as part of original development Total Commercial /Retail Dedication due = $0 Total Park Dedication Due = $289,080 Trail Dedication — The applicant is proposing to construct several walks and trails that will have public recreational and transportation benefits. When using a construction Planning Report — CityVue Commons March 25, 2014 Page 22 value multiplier, staff has determined that the new trails would satisfy the trail dedication requirements and no additional cash payment would be required. Dakota County — As a requirement for submittal of a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to the Metropolitan Council, the City sent out notice of the amendment request to adjacent jurisdictions (cities, school districts and Dakota County), The only written comment received was from Dakota County. Besides transportation items that were addressed during the Plat Commission process, the County provided feedback pertaining to the Dakota County Park System Plan which plans for a greenway that will need to cross Yankee Doodle Road preferably via a tunnel or bridge, While not a requirement and no funding has been identified or sought, the potential location and design for such a feature should be considered and not precluded with this development. The letter pertaining to the Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment and the Plat Commission letters are included as exhibits to this report. SUMMARY /CONCLUSION Interstate Partners is requesting approval of a Preliminary Planned Development to establish a mixed use development with 28,150 sf of retail and 202 apartment dwelling units and a Preliminary Subdivision to create 6 lots upon the 9.8 acre site.

Comprehensive Guide Plan Designation (existing & proposed) The existing comprehensive plan designation is 0/S - Office / Service. The applicant is proposing to change the comprehensive plan designation to MU - Mixed Use. The proposed Comprehensive Plan Amend menttransitions the property from a tired office oriented use and structure, to a dense and intense neighborhood based urban development. The proposal contemplates the conversion of the existing office structure into a 112 unit, high -rise residential project,. offering a unique downtown experience to both existing residence of the community and future residents of the project. This CPA also provides for a second residential phase which can support up to 90 residential units in a 4 story structure. Additionally, the CPA provides the opportunity to repurpose the large parking fields along Yankee Doodle into pedestrian oriented neighborhood retail, which will directly serve the new residents of the tower and Eagan residents at large. B. Zoning Classification (existing & proposed) The existing zoning classification is PD - Planned Development, which allows for office and office related uses, consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The applicant is applying for a Preliminary Planned Development whereby the Planned Development will provide for the mixed use redevelopment, specifically including high density residential and commercial shopping. C. What you want to do; timing /phasing The applicant is proposing to redevelop the existing structure and surrounding parking fields into a mix of residential and retail uses. The following table correlates to the Preliminary Planned Development and Preliminary Subdivision Submittals that have been submitted and revised together with this application; Project: Use: Lot 1 Retail Commercial Lot 2 High Density Residential Lot 3 High Density Residential Lot 4 Retail Commercial Lot 5 Retail Commercial Lot 6 Retail Commercial ROW Right of Way Additional features; Phase: Size: Area: Existing / New I 10,000 sq ft 1.25 acres New I _ 112 units 2.74 acres Convert existing II 90 units 2.16 acres New II 10,150 sq it 1.46 acres New I 3,000 sq ft 0.85 acres New I 5,000 sq ft 0.78 acres New 0.57 acres Dedicated a. Connectivity to the adjacent businesses to the east (shown) and we are discussing connectivity with the property owner to the west, Best Buy building (not shown) b. North / South street to allow for movement between Yankee Doodle Road and Town Centre Drive c. Pedestrian sidewalks to connect residential uses to commercial, both within the project and across Yankee Doodle to Eagan Promenade I v1sr lit L ?: MAR 0 5 2014 d. Additional amenity details will be provided final plans (to include the accommodation of walkways, patios, bike racks, etc). D. Existing land uses on subject property The existing land use on the subject property is office. Previously the subject property was occupied by Blue Cross Blue Shield. E. Surrounding land uses and zoning with 660 feet The land uses with 660 feet of the subject property include the following L PD - Planned Development fl. R -4 - High Density Residential iii. R -1- Residential Single Family iv. LB - Limited Business F. Office Implications We believe the proposed development is the highest and best use of the existing land and has the best benefit to the community. The Eagan / Mendota Heights office market, primarily located along 494 from Pilot Knob Road to Dodd Road, currently has approximately 500,000 square feet of existing tenant -ready vacancy. This vacancy is roughly 75% in Eagan and 25% in Mendota Heights. This vacancy can accommodate both long term and shot term tenant expansion of existing Eagan / Mendota Heights businesses as well as attract new business to the market. The aforementioned vacancy does not include the former Blue Cross Blue Shield facility, the Lockheed Martin site or the Delta campus. In addition to this vacancy, Interstate Partners has the capacity to add 650,000 square feet of office product to the Eagan market at Boulder Lakes, the Waters can support an additional 1.75,000 square feet of office product and United Properties can add another 150,000 square feet of office product in the Mendota Heights Development. When and if developed, the Delta campus could support in additional 750,000 square feet of office product. As a result, the former BCBS facility is not competitive with the aforementioned vacancies and new construction opportunities because of condition of the facility, location (off of the 494 strip), lack of multi- tenant functionality, and outdated floor plate sizing. F. Deviations: a. CSC Parking -- Lots 1, 4, 9 & 6: The required parking for lots 1, 4, 5 & 6 is 235 stalls. The aggregate parking provided for these lots is proposed at 248 stalls. Lot 1 will be slightly under parked at 68 stalls; whereas 79 are required. Lots 4 & 5 will be slightly over parked and lot 6 will be grossly over parked. Regarding lot 1, code require 79 stalls; however, we feel the 68 stalls (6.8/1,000) will be more than sufficient considering the balanced effect of parking over the entire development. The uses that are proposed for the building and the excess land for future phases will also grant us the flexibility to solve any parking issues that may have occurred in the first phase. Our goal for the CSC zoned lots is to effectively and efficiently park both the employees'and customers of each tenant, without the waste or overburden of empty parking fields. b. R -4 Parking - Lots 2 & 3: The required parking for lots 2 & 3 is 2 stalls per unit, resulting in 404 stalls required. At Home Apartments analyzed the parking trends in for their existing multi - family projects in Eagan, along with the new developments that have similar characteristics as the proposed development (when considering unit size, bedroom counts, rent per square foot and sub - market) and came to the conclusion that we can effectively park the projects at 1.2 stalls per unit. Comparable new developments are trending towards 1.0 -1.1 stalls per unit (please see the attached 2 examples); however, we want to be able to accommodate shifts in occupancy trends in the marketplace and have proposed 150 exclusive stalls for lot 2 (the existing tower) with an additional 19 shared stalls resulting in a total of 169 stalls for 112 units (1.50 stalls / unit). For the second multi - family phase, lot 3, we have proposed 90 units with 120 exclusive stalls resulting in a parking ration of 1.33 stalls / unit. We feel that both of these will be slightly over parked to handle changes in the marketplace, but still very efficient and without the waste of an underutilized parking field. Our goal for the R -4 zoned lots is to effectively and efficiently park both the occupants and guests of project, without the waste or overburden of empty parking fields. Please see the attached parking analysis performed by At Home Apartments. c. Connectively to the East: The submitted plans and documents show connectively to the business owners the east i.) Culvers, ii.) O'Reilly Auto Parts, iii.) Valvoline. The purpose and intent of this connectivity is to create a customer - friendly traffic / pedestrian route to Yankee Doodle in the circumstance that the Cleary Lane access onto Yankee Doodle is closed or restricted in the future. This connectively should provide similar access to the current route to Yankee Doodle for the business owners, employees and customers. d. Parking set -back to Yankee Doodle: The submitted plans and documents show a 4'10" 6'0" setback from the future proposed property line to the proposed parking. This setback assumes a dedication to Dakota County for additional ROW. Although the parking lot setback is shown to be as minimal as 4'10 ", the currently parking field extends approximately 10' into the proposed ROW dedication area, resulting in a reduction of approximately 15' of parking across the front of the proposed development. e. Town Center Drive to Yankee Doodle Connection: The north / south drive proposed through the development has been designed to act and serve as a public connection from Yankee Doodle to Town Center Drive. The access onto Yankee Doodle has been aligned with the access to Eagan Promenade across the street to accommodate signalization in the future. f. Parking Stall Dimensions: Eagan city code currently requires parking stall dimensions to be 10'x 19'. The parking stall dimensions for the CityVue development have all been proposed at 9'x 18'. We feel that the proposed stall dimensions (previously a market standard) are more applicable for infill and urban development where density maximum land utilization is encouraged. For example, the city of Minneapolis' code requires 8'6" x 18' parking stalls and St. Paul requires 9' x 18'. g. Pylon Signage: The proposed pylon signage is oversized by 2 square feet per side; code requires a maximum of 125 square feet per side and the proposed pylon shows 127 square feet. This is was an oversight on our part, which was not realized until the revised plans had been completed. We will adjust the proposed pylon size accordingly to meet code. Parking analysis on the following page M City of Eagan Parking Requirement Analysis REQUIREMENT The City of Eagan requires multi - family dwellings to have two parking spaces per unit. REQUEST Interstate Partners together with At Home Apartments, LLC requests the City of Eagan allow a minimum parking standard of one parking space per residential unit for the proposed development. RATIONALE The requirement of two parking spaces per unit is excessive for the needs of current and forecasted future rental multi - family markets. SUPPORTIVE ARGUMENTS Household Statistics. A Dakota County Housing Study compared household types from the years 2000 and 2010. The study revealed the number of married households with children decreased 16% and the number of single parent and unmarried households increased 22 %. Moreover, the number of individuals who lived alone increased 16% and the number of people with non - related roommates decreased 10 %. Statistics of Renters and Vehicles. In 2009, statistics from City- Data.com showed that. the City of Eagan consisted of 5,991 renter occupied units. Of the 5,991 renter occupied units, 3,058 units had only one vehicle associated with the rental unit, meaning over half (51 %) of renter occupied units had only one car associated with the unit (please refer to http:/ /www.city- data.com/housing/houses- Eagan - Minnesota.html to review the above referenced statistics). Jade Lane Estates, Jane Lane Estates is an apartment complex managed by At Home Apartments located in the City of Eagan. The property consists of 90 units'and 128 bedrooms. Occupying those 90 units or 128 bedrooms is 127 leaseholders. As of today, the property has a total of 122 registered vehicles resulting in a 1.41 ratio of cars per unit and a.95 ratio of cars per bedroom. The property is currently 98% occupied. Comparable Cities. The City of St. Louis Park, which is comparable to the City of Eagan, requires one parking space per bedroom and ten percent of those, spaces are to be designated as guest parking. The City of Golden Valley, which is also comparable to the City of Eagan, requires one parking space per bedroom. New Development Parking, Below is a list of new development projects developed and managed by At Home Apartments where current parking needs support a 1:1 ratio rather than the 2:1 ratio that is currently required by the City of Eagan. ♦ Parkway West: a 48 unit apartment building located in Minneapolis completed in February 2013. The building currently has 45 units occupied, 65 Residents, and 53 vehicles. Therefore, the building has a 1.10 ratio of cars per unit. ♦ East River Apartments: a 44 unit apartment building located in St. Paul completed in December 2013. The building currently has 31 units occupied, 38 residents, and 33 registered vehicles. Therefore, the building has a 1.06 ratio of cars per occupied unit. West River Commons: a 53 unit apartment building located in Minneapolis completed in 2004. The building currently has 49 units occupied, 67 residents, and 55 registered vehicles. Therefore, the building has a 1.04 ratio of cars per units.

Eagan, MN 55122 Re: CITY VUE COMMONS The Dakota County Plat Commission met on March 10, 2014, to consider the preliminary plan of the above referenced plat. The plat is adjacent to CSAH 28, and is therefore subject to the Dakota County Contiguous Plat Ordinance. The preliminary plat is located south of CSAH 28 (Yankee Doodle Road) and north of Town Centre Drive. The proposed commercial site includes 6 lots including redevelopment of the existing Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) building into apartment units. There will be a north -south street (private driveway) connecting Town Centre Drive to the CSAH 28 /Promenade Avenue intersection. In addition, other potential internal connections to the site were discussed. An easterly connection would be located near the existing Culver's site and a westerly connection through the existing Best Buy site. The Plat Commission discussed the importance of these internal connections to avoid county road trips when possible. The right -of -way needs are 100 feet of half right of way for a six -lane roadway along CSAH 28. The plat is dedicating 40 feet to meet the right -of -way needs. Restricted access should be shown along all of CSAH 28 except for one opening across from Promenade Avenue. The Plat Commission noted that Promenade Avenue to the north south align with the private driveway into this development. It was noted that the underlying plat included restricted access along CSAH 28 except for one 60 -foot opening into the existing BCBS site. It appears that the new opening for the driveway may need to be moved or widened in the existing 60 -foot opening. The Plat Commission recommends vacating /releasing the existing restricted access from the underlying plat prior to the recording of this proposed plat. A new access opening will be determined and shown on this proposed plat prior to recording. Restricted access should be shown along all of CSAH 28 except for the one approved access opening. As discussed, the developer and City will be working with the County Traffic Department regarding the traffic study requirements prior to determining the improvements to the CSAH 28 /Promenade Avenue intersection. As noted, Cleary Lane is planned to be a restricted access in the future. The Plat Commission has approved the preliminary plat. The Ordinance requires submittal of a final plat for review by the Plat Commission before a recommendation is made to the County Board of Commissioners. No work shall commence in the County right of way until a permit is obtained from the County Transportation Department and no permit will be issued until the plat has been filed with the County Recorder's Office. The Plat Commission does not review or approve the actual engineering design of proposed accesses or other improvements to be made in the right of way. The Plat Commission highly recommends early contact with the Transportation Department to discuss the permitting process that reviews the design and may require construction of highway improvements, including, but not limited to, turn lanes, drainage features, limitations on intersecting street widths, medians, etc. Please contact Gordon McConnell regarding permitting questions at (952) 891 -7115 or Todd Tollefson regarding Plat Commission or Plat Ordinance questions at (952) 891 -7070. Sincerely, Todd B. Tollefson Secretary, Plat Commission cc: Agenda Information Memo June 17, 2104, Eagan City Council Meeting OLD BUSINESS B. Ordinance Amendment — An Ordinance Amendment to City Code Chapter 10.43 relative to false alarm regulations Action To Be Considered: Approve an ordinance amendment to City Code Chapter 10.43 relative to false alarm regulations and direct the City Attorney to publish the ordinance amendment summary. Facts: ➢ At its May 20, 2014 meeting, the Council directed preparation of an ordinance amendment relative to false alarm regulations. ➢ City Code allows for the collection of a fee for repeat false police and fire alarms. There is no charge for the first three false alarms per calendar year. Alarm system users are billed $100 for the fourth and each subsequent alarm in a calendar year. ➢ The proposed ordinance amendment exempts new alarm systems from the false alarm fee during their first 30 days of operation. This change is being suggested in anticipation of the Twin Cities Premium Outlets opening and as a result of feedback from businesses and property owners. Several neighboring cities currently provide this exemption. ➢ Per the recommendation of the City Attorney, the proposed ordinance amendment updates existing Code language to reflect advances in alarm system technology. ➢ The proposed ordinance amendment does not change the current $100 false alarm fee.
