03/27/1984 - City Council Regular0 E • MIN= OF A REGULAR MKETING OF THE ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION EAGAN, MIDNESOTA MARCH 2T, 1984 A regular meeting of the Eagan Advisory Planning Commission was held on March 27, 1984 at 7:00 p.m. at the Eagan Municipal Center. Those present were C Wold who chaired the meeting, Krob, Mulrooney, Wilkins and Merkley. Absent were Chairman Hall, and members Bohne and McCrea. Also present were City Planner Runkle, Assistant City Engineer Hefti, and City Attorney Hauge. AGENDA Krob moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to approve the agenda with the revision of consideration of the Shoreland Ordinance and amendments to Eagan Code, Chapters 11 and 13 to be placed at the end of the agenda. All voted yes. February 28, 1984 - Regular Meeting. Wilkins moved, Mulrooney seconded the motion to approve the Minutes. All voted in favor except Krob who abstained, noting he was not present at that meeting. HOLMES ADDITION - PRELIMINARY PLAT The continued public hearing regarding the application of Paul Holmes for preliminary plat approval of proposed Holmes Addition consisting of approxi- mately l acre, intending to include two single family lots, located near the intersection of Quarry Lane and Towerview Road, was convened by Chairman Wold. Dale Runkle reviewed the application that had been continued from the last meeting and noted that the Planning Commission had requested additional infor- mation regarding the upgrading of Towerview Road, adjacent to the subdivision. Mr. Hefti stated that the staff had researched the status of Towerview Road, east of Quarry Lane, and noted that a bituminous mat and concrete curbing are in place along the south portion of Towerview Road at that location, adjacent to the Ed Reid property. The recommendation of the engineering department would be to upgrade the public improvements within Towerview Road to city standards in front of Holmes Addition, but that an alternate would be to escrow funds for future improvements. City Attorney Paul Hauge also reviewed several alternates, including the upgrading of the street, improvement of only that portion of Towerview Road in front of the Holmes Addition, escrowing funds sufficient for the future up- grading, no upgrading and simply acquiring necessary easement right-of-way, or the potential for a homeowners agreement amongst the property owners to the east for maintenance of Towerview Road in that location. Mark Tompkins and Paul Holmes were present and requested that the road area be released from any • requirement for public improvements. Ed Reid was also present as were other owners to the east. Mr. Holmes also objected to the requirement for an escrow. 7 0 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 40 There were questions from the Planning Commission members as to what areas would be assessed for benefit purposes and it was noted the estimated C cost was about $8,200.00 for water main and street improvements. Jerry Rogers appeared and was concerned about long-term costs for improvement of the hill to the east. Member Wilkins was concerned about improving the street to Pilot Knob Road at the present time and indicated that the property owners objected to that type of improvement. The main issue was whether to recommend upgrad- ing at the present time or in the future and provide for assessments in the future. Mr. Hefti indicated it would be difficult to get approval of the property owners in Holmes Addition for future upgrading after the platting is completed, and further noted the high cost of maintenance for gravel surfaced streets. Wilkins moved, Mulrooney seconded the motion to recommend approval of the application for preliminary plat approval, subject to the following conditions: 1. Adequate right-of-way shall be dedicated for Towerview Road as determined by the City. 2. A 10 foot front setback variance shall be granted for Lots 1 and 2 of the proposed plat. • 3. The plat shall be reviewed by the Department of natural Resources for their comments. 4. Park dedication shall be provided as requested by the Advisory Park Commission. 5.. All other applicable ordinances shall be adhered to. 6. A detailed grading and erosion control plan shall be required to be submitted for approval. 7. An adequate turnaround shall be provided at the end of Towerview Road. 8. The existing 20 foot easement shall be dedicated as public right-of- way for Towerview Road. 9. A ponding easement shall be required to be dedicated to encompass the high water elevation of LeMay's Lake. 10. This development shall be responsible for trunk area water and storm sewer asssessments at the rate in effect at the time of final platting. 11. .All costs associated with public improvements shall be the sole responsibility of this development. • 12. All easements shall be dedicated as required by staff in the Engi- neering Report. 2 All voted in favor except Wold, who voted no, indicating he supported the City policy as to the improvements. SUNSET 5TH ADDITION - PRELI1IINARY PLAT Mr. Runkle indicated the City Council formally reviewed the preliminary plat application of Joseph Hoffman for the approval of Sunset 5th Addition at the Council's meeting on March 6, 1984. The Council had serious concerns pertaining to direct driveway access onto Dodd Road with the potential for a future side lot along the single family lot and no committed public right-of- way, being of record or even reviewed, to determine if this is the most appropriate location. There were questions about access to Dodd Road, whether an easement would be provided over the property to the north and access to the remainder of the Lexington South property to the west. Brad Swenson appeared for the applicant and explained the proposal for the development of the land to the west and the proposed moving of the church location. There were concerns about additional access points on to Dodd Road, but it was proposed that turn-arounds on each individual lot be provided. Mr. Swenson indicated that the property owner to the north would agree to a 60 foot easement north of the 5th Addition. There was no written committment from Lexington South as to the 60 foot easement. After extended discussion, Wold moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recommend to the Council the following: 1. That each lot in the 5th Addition would be allowed an individual access with an interior turn -around. 2. That the surrounding ]and uses appear to warrant the location for an access road to the north on to Dodd Road. 3. The Planning Commission reaffirms the approval of the conditions for approval of the preliminary plat. C 4. That the preliminary plat be conditioned upon written committment from the owner to the north, that it will convey a 60 foot road easement. All voted in favor. 91 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 13. No public improvements shall be extended along Towerview Road east of Quarry Lane at the present time, but at such time as Towerview Road, west of Quarry Lane is improved, the roadway adjacent to Holmes Addition, shall be C upgraded and the benefit shall be assessed. All voted in favor except Wold, who voted no, indicating he supported the City policy as to the improvements.

All voted in favor. 91 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 Ll 0 BOBBARD BROADCASTING CO. - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT C The public hearing regarding the application of Hubbard Broadcasting Co. and Fairview Company for conditional use permit to allow pylon advertising sign in an area zoned Roadside Business near the intersection of I -35E and Cliff Road was then convened. Mr. Runkle reviewed the application and stated that Roadside Business Zoning would allow an advertising sign, the 20 foot setback from the right-of-way is being adhered to, the sign would be 40 feet from the base to the top of the sign and it would contain 242 square feet under the maximum allowed of 250 square feet. It did not appear that the application violated the Sign Ordinance provisions. A representative from the applicant was present. Member Wilkins indicated that the City has not allowed advertising signs on undeveloped property in the past. The representative indicated that most likely the sign will be removed when the land is developed. Krob moved, Mulrooney seconded the motion to approve the applica- tion, subject to the sign meeting all of the criteria set forth in Section 4.2 of the Eagan City Code. All voted in favor. DRENC®AHN - REZONING The hearing of Allan and Baerbel Drenckhahn to rezone approximately .06 acres from A (Agricultural) to RB (Roadside Business) located on the west side of Pilot Knob Road, south of #494 was next convened by the Chairman. The property is zoned Agricultural and the property around it is basically zoned RB (Roadside Business). The Comprehensive Guide Plan designates the land as RB. The applicants intend to relocate their hair grooming business and also import gift shop business from their home to the south on Pilot Knob Road, and potentially would build a restaurant on the site in three to five years. The staff reviewed certain alternates such as special permit to allow the gift shop and hairdressing business until such time as the applicant is ready to construct or expand the home into the restaurant that is being proposed. Member Wilkins stated the policy of the City is that no rezoning would be allowed until the preliminary plat application is submitted and approved. There was discussion concerning parking and setbacks. Mr. and Mrs. Drenckhahn were present and indicated that they would favor reviewing the potential for a C preliminary plat at the present time. There were no objections from sur- rounding property owners. Also, it was noted that generally, the City does not allow retail sales where only a hairdressing salon is permitted. Krob moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to continue the hearing until the next regular meeting to permit the applicant to review the potential for submitting an application for preliminary plat approval. All voted in favor. • 4 0 0 APC Minutes . March 27, 1984 JOHNNY CANE RIDGE FIFTH ADDITION - REVISED PRELIMINARY PLAT CThe public hearing regarding the application of U. S. Homes Corporation for revised preliminary plat of Johnny Cake Fourth Addition into Johnny Cake Fifth Addition was presented to the Planning Commission. The proposal is to replat a portion of the northeast part of the townhouse development to allow splitting four-plex units for the construction of two double units adjacent to each other, using the same driveway approach as originally approved. It was understood the square footage of the units would increase slightly when chang- ing the tuck -under garages to attached garages at the ends of the units. Dale Runkle explained the proposal, which includes essentially zero lot lines. Robert Hoffman, attorney, appeared for the applicant, as did Bill Fierke, Jim Nervig, Chuck Winden and Bill Allen. It was noted that the proposal is somewhat of a hybrid approach without strict precedent in the City. A number of neighboring property owners were present with concerns about reduction in property value, effect upon their association, etc. Mr. Hoffman stated that the development could provide for a new Homeowners Association. After considerable discussion, Mr. Hoffman requested that the application be • continued to allow the applicant to meet with the neighboring representatives. Mulrooney moved, Krob seconded the motion to continue the hearing until the next regular meeting in April 1984. All voted in favor. fif:� �? r� iliii►:Ty�+ii.��; y�T5if�}��i;Ril;i�ii;iiiy���i;i:�;ii�ll:�i The hearings were then convened regarding the application of U. S. Homes Corporation to rezone approximately 50 acres from R-4 (Residential Multiple) to R-1 PD (Residential Single District) with lot sizes which deviate from the R-1 zoning standards located in the West 1/2 of the Southwest 1/4 of Section 14 along and adjacent to Lexington Avenue. The second application was for preliminary plat approval of Lexington Place South containing 134 single family lots. Mr. Runkle noted that the parcel is zoned R-4 with an approved preliminary plat consisting of 360 dwelling units. The Comprehensive Guide designates the parcel R -II with a density of 6 units per acre. The proposed plan does conform as to density with approximately 7.2 dwelling units per acre. The gross density is 2.7 units per acre and the net density is about 4.0 units per acre, excluding street right-of-way and proposed open space. (` Mr. Runkle explained the zero lot line proposal and Mr. Hoffman appeared and stated that some roadway changes have been included in the proposal. The proposal calls for courtyard arrangements with setbacks provided at the side of each home with a perpetual easement granted adjacent for courtyard. The sale price will be $80,000.00 to $105,000.00. It was noted that there will be a homeowners association. Mr. Hoffman estimated there would be 800 fewer trips per day than the original proposal. A preliminary grading plan will be • submitted if the Planning Commission recommends approval and would be avail- able before consideration by the City Council. 5 0 0 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 Barry Tilley, a neighboring owner, appeared and favored the reduction in density from 360 to 134 R-1 units. He noted the City has requested that a C sanitary sewer easement be acquired, possibly across his property, and was also concerned about the pond at the southeast corner of the applicant's property, which could create additional water problems on his 5 acre parcel. The applicant indicated that there would be no additional run off to the south. Member Wilkins favored the rezoning to R-1. Twenty lots would be at the 6,600 minimum square footage, and the largest lots would be located in the southeast corner. Square footages of the units would be 935 square feet, 1,151 square feet and 1,704 square feet. Member Krob questioned whether the common area should be credited for park purposes and it was understood that the Park Committee will not do so. The frontage of all the lots are 60 feet except corner lots, and it is re- quested that interior lots be allowed a 20 foot setback from the corners, rather than 30 feet. There appear to be precedents as to the small lot sizes and it was noted that the Park Committee desires a 10 to 15 acre parcel for park purposes to the south and east. Member Wold suggested architectural review and Mr. Hof- fman stated of- fman,stated that U. S. Homes will build all the units in the development, and the developer will control the architectural style. It was recommended that the models proposed to be installed, be included in the exhibit in the Planned Development Agreement. After extensive discussion, Krob moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recommend approval of the rezoning application to R-1 Planned Development. All voted in favor, except Mulrooney who voted no. Krob then moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recommend approval of the prelimi- nary plat application, subject to the following conditions: 1. Adequate rights-of-way shall be dedicated for all of the public streets in this development proposal. 2. The plat shall be reviewed by the Dakota County Plat Commission because the plat abuts County rights-of-way. 3. The plat shall be subject to the Park Commission's review and com- ments regarding the open space proposed in this development proposal and park dedication requirements. C4. A detailed grading, drainage and erosion control plan shall be reviewed and approved by City staff. • 5: A detailed housing plan or grading plan shall be submitted prior to consideration by the City Council showing the lots can support the units proposed to be constructed. U 7. An exhibit shall be attached to the PD agreement to describe the architectural theme including the models attached. B. All interior ponds shall be interconnected to provide outlet control and the drainage plan shall be approved by the City to avoid drainage to the south. 9. The developer shall petition for a project to construct an outlet to Pond JP -45 and also construct a portion of the outlet pipe for Pond JP -46 located within this development. 10. The proposed 90 foot offset intersection shall be eliminated by • either Alternate 1 or Alternate 2 as mentioned within the Engineering Report. 11. Pond easement shall be dedicated to encompass the high water eleva- tion for the proposed storm sewer retention ponds. 12.

Costs of all internal lateral streets and utilities shall be the sole responsibility of this development. 15. The sanitary sewer trunk easement to the south shall be acquired at the developer's sole expense. All voted in favor except Mulrooney who voted no objecting to the serious C' deviations in the R-1 standards and noted that topographic, location and other amenities, do not warrant the deviations. YI APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 6. All setbacks shall be maintained with the exception of the request C for a 20 foot side setback on the internal streets. A Planned Development Agreement shall be prepared and entered into regarding the use of the smaller single family lots with this particular design and allowing only 134 single family lots. 7.

Dale Runkle reviewed the application and indicated that the property is guided as R -I and the preliminary plat would consist of 1.6 dwelling units per acre. He noted that there were proposed cul-de-sacs because of the very rough terrain and the staff recommended that the two easterly cul-de-sacs be connected along the ridge only, rather than at the very ends of the cul-de-sacs. The lots all conform with the minimum standards and it was noted a neighborhood park is proposed to be acquired in the northern portion of the 120 -acre John Brown property from which farm this 7th Addition would be taken. Two of the three cul-de-sacs would require a variance. One is 510 feet and another at about 720 feet. Bill Dolan, Engineer, appeared on behalf of Tollefson Builders, and indicated that the 510 foot cul-de-sac will be shortened to conform. Joe O'Shaughnessy, a neighbor, was concerned about the increase in traffic until access to the east or north is installed. He suggested that methods be • employed to reduce the speed through the development to the west. It was noted that some methods are additional signing and strict enforcement of speed limits. Mr. Dolan stated there would be a significant amount of trees removed and a great deal of additional cost if the two cul-de-sacs were connected. Chairman Wold stated it did not appear to be practical to out an additional swap of land and trees in a heavily wooded area and also noted the very rough terrain. Wilkins moved, Mulrooney seconded the motion to recommend approval of the application for rezoning to R-1 and further, of preliminary plat approval, subject to the following conditions: 1. A detailed grading, drainage, erosion and sediment control plan shall be submitted and reviewed by the City staff prior to final plat approval. 2. Temporary turn-arounds shall be provided at the ends of each of the stubbed streets proposed in this development and setback' shall be permitted assuring no turn arounds are installed. 3. One variance shall be allowed on the middle cul-de-sac as proposed in the preliminary plat to prepare the existing trees and terrain. 4. No lot shall be below 12,000 square feet or 85 foot width at the 30 foot setback. 5. The applicant shall meet all other City ordinance requirements in regard to setbacks or residential homes and lot coverage. • 6. The plat shall be subject to the Park Commission's recommendation for park dedication. W E APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 0 7. If the proposed development is approved, the developer shall submit a petition to the City to construct the utilities and streets. C8. Utility and drainage easements shall be dedicated as referenced in the staff report and recommended by the City. 9. All future costs for public improvements shall be the sole respon- sibility of this development except for the watermain over -sizing. 10. Utilities shall be extended to the east line of this proposed plat. 11. The sanitary sewer shall be serviced by gravity from an existing sanitary sewer located approximately 550 feet directly west of the northwest corner of this property in the Brittany 3rd Addition. 12. Sanitary sewer shall be constructed through this proposed plat and constructed at an elevation low enough to service the property to the east. 13. The developer shall contact the Department of Natural Resources and • obtain the necessary permits required. All voted yes. Member Mulrooney was excused at 11:30 p.m. PEACE REFORMED CHURCH OF EACAN - PRELIMINARY PLAT The hearing regarding the application of Peace Reformed Church of Eagan for preliminary plat approval of Peaceful Heights consisting of approximately 14 acres and containing one lot and one outlot located along the west side of Nicols Road and south of Diffley Road, was then considered by the Planning Commission. Dale Runkle reviewed the proposal, briefly noting that the parcel is zoned Public Facility and that the platted lot would include the new proposed Peace Reformed Church building and use of the outlot is unknown at the present time. The applicant is proposing to provide access to the outlot through the cul-de-sac separating Outlot A from Lot 1, common access from Nicols Road. Parking would be 1 space for each 3.5 seats, according to the plan. Dick Lundahl, the architect, was present and stated that the cul-de-sac would be installed to City standards and would be dedicated to the City, but ` would require a length variance. There were no objections to the application. Kroh moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recommend approval of the applica- tion, subject to the following conditions: 1. The plat shall be subject to MnDOT review and comment because the plat abuts State right-of-way. • 2. The plat shall also be subject to Dakota County Plat Commission's review and comment because Nicols Road is still a County Road. E 9 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 0 5. No development shall be allowed to occur on Outlot A until it is replatted. 6. All other City Code requirements shall be met. 7. Detailed landscape plans shall be submitted and approved and a landscape bond shall be required and not released until one year after land- scaping has been completed. 8. The parking area shall be surfaced and concrete curb shall be in- stalled around the perimeter of parking and drive lanes. 9. The cul-de-sac shall be approved for length variance of 100 feet. • All voted in favor. The hearing regarding the application of Ken Tschida and Richard Cover- dale for preliminary plat approval of Wescott Hills Revised consisting of 12.2 acres with 168 dwelling units, located on Lot 1, Block 1, and Lot 1, Block 2, Wescott Hills Addition on Yankee Doodle Road was convened by the Chairman. City Planner, Dale Runkle, detailed the application, noting the Comprehensive Guide Plan provides for R -III (Mixed Residential) with a•density of 6 - 12 units per acre in the proposal which would. contain 42 four -unit buildings with three stories in height, and it would appear to comply with the use. There would be 168 dwelling units with a net density of 13.7 dwelling units per acre. The property is zoned R-4 and it was staffs understanding that there would be 2.5 parking spaces per unit. The applicant will request the City Council vacate a portion of Rost Road between Trails End Road and Wescott Hills Drive, noting that the street has never been cut in, has never been approved and is a very old street. Greg Frank and Ken Tschida were present and there were questions concerning whether Kost Road should vacated and the staff generally recommended approval. An internal private drive is being proposed within the subdivision. The approved width would be 32 feet, in- cluding an 8 foot easement behind each curb. There were no objections from surrounding owners as to the application or to the proposed vacation. Ali drainage will be retained within the project site and the same architectural • theme will be used throughout. Wilkins moved, Merkley seconded the motion to recommend the application be approved to the City Council, subject to the conditions as follows: 10 3.

CGROUP W ADDITION - PRELIMINARY PLAT The hearing regarding the application of Group W Cable, Inc. for prelimi- nary plat approval of Group W Addition was then presented to the Planning Commission. The proposal is to cover 1.8 acres with one lot located in the southwest quarter of Section 19, lying between Old Highway #13 and Old Sibley Memorial Highway. In addition, application for conditional use permit for the proposed Cable T.V. tower to exceed the normal height was brought under the Wind Energy and Tower Ordinance provision. Both the studio and tower for the cable television system for Eagan -Burnsville will be located on the site and in addition, five satellite dishes are being proposed. The City Code also requires that a tower shall be located on the property so that if the tower were to collapse or fall, it would fall entirely on the property it is con- structed on.' In the proposed location, this would not be true and therefore a variance would be required if the application were approved. In addition, a small variance for the building setback, due to its configuration would be required. • James W. Commers and Ray Connally appeared for the applicant and noted that the tower structure would not include guy wires, but would be a self- contained structure. Roger Slater who owns 1.2 acres to the north and 3 acres to the south appeared and objected to the application stating it would destroy the value of the 1.2 acre parcel of property around the plat. Mark Parranto, the agent for the owners to the south, also appeared and indicated that no plan has been prepared for the development of the property that he represented and he objected to any proposed assessments for Old Highway #13 street im- provements or for watermain improvements at the present time. He stated that his client had no objection to the development but objected to the upgrading of the road and watermain at the present time.' Neil Heine, who owns and lives on the residence directly to the north appeared and requested a continuance for additional study. He objected to the T.V. tower because of its alleged offensive site and its height. Mr. Commers stated that he expected the tower would be no higher than 100 feet and described the proposed construction to the Planning Commission mem- bers and those present. He indicated that it is only a receiving signal tower and there should be no electrical interference to any property owners in the area. He also stated that Group W would be covered by liability insurance backed by Western Electric Corporation. He stated that the applicant has investigated many sites in the Eagan -Burnsville area and noted that the tower could be moved to the west side of the building and it would not then, in the event of collapse, fall on neighboring property. Recommendations included all permits, including those from the FAA, should be applied for and acquired and • Mr. Commers stated that such applications are now in process. The schedule is to complete the building by September 1, 1984 and solicit subscribers in November of 1984. - 12 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 The neighboring owners continued to object even with the reduction in C height and the relocation. Krob moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recom- mend approval of the application, noting that it is important that the site be located in Eagan, and the fact that there appear to be very few sites avail- able for such facilities, subject to the following conditions: 1. The parking area shall be surfaced with concrete curbing around the perimeter of the driving aisles and parking area. 2. A detailed grading, drainage and erosion control plan shall be submitted and reviewed prior to the final plat approval. 3. Old Sibley Highway should be upgraded to a minimum standard City street with the approval of this plat adjacent to this property. 4. A detailed landscape plan shall be submitted and approved by the City prior to the final plat, and an adequate landscape bond shall be sub- mitted and not released until one year after the landscaping has been com- pleted. • 5. The plat should be reviewed by Minnesota Highway Department of Transportation because the plat abuts highway rights-of-way. 6. The proposed tower shall be located on the west side of the building and all necessary permits shall be acquired. 7. The necessary sewer and water connection permits shall be obtained prior to final plat approval. 8. Easements shall be dedicated as stated in this report or as required by staff. 9. This development shall be responsible for its assessments for 175 feet of lateral benefit trunk water main at the rate in effect at the time of final platting. 10. Any additional costs for improving this lot shall be the sole re- sponsibility of this development. All voted in favor except Merkley who abstained and stated that he had a potential conflict of interest. Krob then moved to recommend approval of the conditional use permit with the condition that the tower not exceed 100 feet, that the City Engineer review and aprove the tower specifications, that the tower be constructed to withstand at least 100 mile per hour winds, that the City review the liability policy and that the applicant meet all other re- quired ordinance provisions. Wilkins seconded the motion and all voted in favor except Merkley who abstained. 13 9 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 0 CEDAR CLIFF COMMERCIAL 1ST ADDITION - PRELIMINARY PLAT AND AMENDMENT TO PLANNED DEVELOPMENT CThe hearing concerning the application of Woodd ale Inc. and James J. Durning for amendment to planned development and preliminary plat for Cedar Cliff Commercial 1st Addition was then convened. The proposal was to amend the 100% commercial site to allow 4.59 acres of commercial use in the south- west portion of Outlot G of the planned development and the balance to be used for office purposes in the Cedar Cliff planned development office complex consisting of a total of 15.8 acres. It was noted that the balance of the planned development has now been developed and it was noted the City has approved the preliminary plat but the County had not accepted the plat in the area because of access on Nicols Road. The proposed commercial area would contain a total of 24,000 square feet with 2,000 square feet for each of the two buildings proposed. 339 parking spaces will be provided with one space for each 70 square feet. The remaining office area would contain 8.85 acres and would contain 6 additional office sites. The applicant is proposing to provide an overall grading plan for the particular site and to grade the commercial site in the first phase and at the same time install 6 foot earthen • berms along the northerly property line separating the residential area. Jim Durning and his engineer were present and answered questions from the Planning Commission members and from residents that were present. A number of resi- dents were present and others, because of the late hour, had left earlier in the meeting. The proposal would provide for looped streets in and out to Nicols Road in the commercial area and the office area would have separate access to Nicols Road and Scott Trail. The neighbors present strongly objected to access to Scott Trail and at a neighborhood meeting the previous night, they had discussed the proposed project. The revised site plan was submitted at the Planning Commission meeting without a direct outlet to Scott Trail. Mr. Durning stated that he would conform with the neighbors' objection, that there be no viieo arcade or nightclubs and no 24 hour business operations. A petition from neighboring residents was submitted objecting to several aspects of the project. Three office sites on the east would have access on the north side of the commercial parcel to Nicols Road. Mr. Durning also stated that he would install evergreen landscaping along the berm to further shield the two areas. Steve Darling, another neighboring property owner who was present, dis- cussed the proposal and opposed commercial use because of the heavy commercial in the general area. Some neighbors recognized that there would not be development within the parcel until some commercial is approved. Mr. Durning stated that it was his opinion that about 50% of the tenants in the commercial • buildings would be office uses and that a PDQ would be the anchor with re - 14 0 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 0 stricted hours of 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. It was also expected that the C Hillcrest development owners to the west of Nicols Road will ask for more access points on Nicols Road, noting that Mr. Durning is requesting at least three accesses from Cedar Cliff Commercial Park. Mr. Durning objected to the proposed continuity of architectural design between the commercial and office buildings,.noting it is not practical to require the office buildings to comply with the same design. After extended discussion, Wilkins moved, Krob seconded the motion to recommend the City Council approve the application subject to the following: 1. To recommend approval of the application to amend the Cedar Cliff Planned Development, which would include the revised site plan. 2. That the commercial tenants not be allowed to stay open more than from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. 3• That there be no video arcades, nightclubs or similar uses. 4. Further, that an architectural theme for the commercial buildings be • reviewed by the Advisory Planning Commission. All voted yes. Mr. Durning objected to the requirements of the con- tinuity of architectural design between the commercial and office complexes noting that it would not be practical to require the owners of the office buildings to comply with the same design as the commercial center. Wilkins then moved, Merkley seconded the motion to recommend approval of the prelimi- nary plat, subject to the following conditions: 1. A revised planned development agreement shall be entered into and this revised site plan shall be the main land use exhibit with this planned development agreement. 2. The first phase of the commercial area or preliminary plat shall meet all of the criteria for setbacks, parking, etc., in compliance with Chapters 11 and 13 of the City Code. 3. The plat shall be subject to the park commission's review and com- ment regarding park dedication for commercial property. 4. The detailed grading and berms along the northern edge of the property shall be constructed with the first phase of development. 5. The plat shall be subject to the Dakota County Plat Commission's review and comment because the plat abuts County right-of-way. • 6. Cross easements and access shall be provided for the office build- ings in order that all offices have common accesses. 15 9. The developer shall petition for installation of storm sewer to service this development and the drainage plan for the area to the east will be approved by the City staff. 10. If installed privately, plans and specifications for installation of utilities shall be .prepared by a registered engineer in accordance with city engineering guidelines and submitted to staff for approval. 11. An 8 foot bituminous trailway shall be constructed along the east side of Nicols Road, the north side of Cliff Road, or escrow posted according to staff requirements until construction takes palce. 12. Easements shall be dedicated as required in this report and acquired • by city staff. 13. The costs incurred by the city for grading on this property shall be paid by the developer. 14. All costs associated with utility installation and driveway installation will be the sole responsibility of this development with the exception of the oversizing of the storm sewer if additional accesses from the property west of Nicols Road shall conform with the location of accesses from this'plat. All voted in favor.

All voted in favor except Krob who abstained, noting he was not present at that meeting. HOLMES ADDITION - PRELIMINARY PLAT The continued public hearing regarding the application of Paul Holmes for preliminary plat approval of proposed Holmes Addition consisting of approxi- mately l acre, intending to include two single family lots, located near the intersection of Quarry Lane and Towerview Road, was convened by Chairman Wold. Dale Runkle reviewed the application that had been continued from the last meeting and noted that the Planning Commission had requested additional infor- mation regarding the upgrading of Towerview Road, adjacent to the subdivision. Mr. Hefti stated that the staff had researched the status of Towerview Road, east of Quarry Lane, and noted that a bituminous mat and concrete curbing are in place along the south portion of Towerview Road at that location, adjacent to the Ed Reid property. The recommendation of the engineering department would be to upgrade the public improvements within Towerview Road to city standards in front of Holmes Addition, but that an alternate would be to escrow funds for future improvements. City Attorney Paul Hauge also reviewed several alternates, including the upgrading of the street, improvement of only that portion of Towerview Road in front of the Holmes Addition, escrowing funds sufficient for the future up- grading, no upgrading and simply acquiring necessary easement right-of-way, or the potential for a homeowners agreement amongst the property owners to the east for maintenance of Towerview Road in that location. Mark Tompkins and Paul Holmes were present and requested that the road area be released from any • requirement for public improvements. Ed Reid was also present as were other owners to the east. Mr. Holmes also objected to the requirement for an escrow. 7 0 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 40 There were questions from the Planning Commission members as to what areas would be assessed for benefit purposes and it was noted the estimated C cost was about $8,200.00 for water main and street improvements. Jerry Rogers appeared and was concerned about long-term costs for improvement of the hill to the east. Member Wilkins was concerned about improving the street to Pilot Knob Road at the present time and indicated that the property owners objected to that type of improvement. The main issue was whether to recommend upgrad- ing at the present time or in the future and provide for assessments in the future. Mr. Hefti indicated it would be difficult to get approval of the property owners in Holmes Addition for future upgrading after the platting is completed, and further noted the high cost of maintenance for gravel surfaced streets. Wilkins moved, Mulrooney seconded the motion to recommend approval of the application for preliminary plat approval, subject to the following conditions: 1. Adequate right-of-way shall be dedicated for Towerview Road as determined by the City. 2. A 10 foot front setback variance shall be granted for Lots 1 and 2 of the proposed plat. • 3. The plat shall be reviewed by the Department of natural Resources for their comments. 4. Park dedication shall be provided as requested by the Advisory Park Commission. 5.. All other applicable ordinances shall be adhered to. 6. A detailed grading and erosion control plan shall be required to be submitted for approval. 7. An adequate turnaround shall be provided at the end of Towerview Road. 8. The existing 20 foot easement shall be dedicated as public right-of- way for Towerview Road. 9. A ponding easement shall be required to be dedicated to encompass the high water elevation of LeMay's Lake. 10. This development shall be responsible for trunk area water and storm sewer asssessments at the rate in effect at the time of final platting. 11. .All costs associated with public improvements shall be the sole responsibility of this development. • 12. All easements shall be dedicated as required by staff in the Engi- neering Report. 2 All voted in favor except Wold, who voted no, indicating he supported the City policy as to the improvements. SUNSET 5TH ADDITION - PRELI1IINARY PLAT Mr. Runkle indicated the City Council formally reviewed the preliminary plat application of Joseph Hoffman for the approval of Sunset 5th Addition at the Council's meeting on March 6, 1984. The Council had serious concerns pertaining to direct driveway access onto Dodd Road with the potential for a future side lot along the single family lot and no committed public right-of- way, being of record or even reviewed, to determine if this is the most appropriate location. There were questions about access to Dodd Road, whether an easement would be provided over the property to the north and access to the remainder of the Lexington South property to the west. Brad Swenson appeared for the applicant and explained the proposal for the development of the land to the west and the proposed moving of the church location. There were concerns about additional access points on to Dodd Road, but it was proposed that turn-arounds on each individual lot be provided. Mr. Swenson indicated that the property owner to the north would agree to a 60 foot easement north of the 5th Addition. There was no written committment from Lexington South as to the 60 foot easement. After extended discussion, Wold moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recommend to the Council the following: 1. That each lot in the 5th Addition would be allowed an individual access with an interior turn -around. 2. That the surrounding ]and uses appear to warrant the location for an access road to the north on to Dodd Road. 3. The Planning Commission reaffirms the approval of the conditions for approval of the preliminary plat. C 4. That the preliminary plat be conditioned upon written committment from the owner to the north, that it will convey a 60 foot road easement. All voted in favor. 91 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 13. No public improvements shall be extended along Towerview Road east of Quarry Lane at the present time, but at such time as Towerview Road, west of Quarry Lane is improved, the roadway adjacent to Holmes Addition, shall be C upgraded and the benefit shall be assessed. All voted in favor except Wold, who voted no, indicating he supported the City policy as to the improvements.

Mr. Runkle reviewed the application and stated that Roadside Business Zoning would allow an advertising sign, the 20 foot setback from the right-of-way is being adhered to, the sign would be 40 feet from the base to the top of the sign and it would contain 242 square feet under the maximum allowed of 250 square feet. It did not appear that the application violated the Sign Ordinance provisions. A representative from the applicant was present. Member Wilkins indicated that the City has not allowed advertising signs on undeveloped property in the past. The representative indicated that most likely the sign will be removed when the land is developed. Krob moved, Mulrooney seconded the motion to approve the applica- tion, subject to the sign meeting all of the criteria set forth in Section 4.2 of the Eagan City Code. All voted in favor. DRENC®AHN - REZONING The hearing of Allan and Baerbel Drenckhahn to rezone approximately .06 acres from A (Agricultural) to RB (Roadside Business) located on the west side of Pilot Knob Road, south of #494 was next convened by the Chairman. The property is zoned Agricultural and the property around it is basically zoned RB (Roadside Business). The Comprehensive Guide Plan designates the land as RB. The applicants intend to relocate their hair grooming business and also import gift shop business from their home to the south on Pilot Knob Road, and potentially would build a restaurant on the site in three to five years. The staff reviewed certain alternates such as special permit to allow the gift shop and hairdressing business until such time as the applicant is ready to construct or expand the home into the restaurant that is being proposed. Member Wilkins stated the policy of the City is that no rezoning would be allowed until the preliminary plat application is submitted and approved. There was discussion concerning parking and setbacks. Mr. and Mrs. Drenckhahn were present and indicated that they would favor reviewing the potential for a C preliminary plat at the present time. There were no objections from sur- rounding property owners. Also, it was noted that generally, the City does not allow retail sales where only a hairdressing salon is permitted. Krob moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to continue the hearing until the next regular meeting to permit the applicant to review the potential for submitting an application for preliminary plat approval. All voted in favor. • 4 0 0 APC Minutes . March 27, 1984 JOHNNY CANE RIDGE FIFTH ADDITION - REVISED PRELIMINARY PLAT CThe public hearing regarding the application of U. S. Homes Corporation for revised preliminary plat of Johnny Cake Fourth Addition into Johnny Cake Fifth Addition was presented to the Planning Commission. The proposal is to replat a portion of the northeast part of the townhouse development to allow splitting four-plex units for the construction of two double units adjacent to each other, using the same driveway approach as originally approved. It was understood the square footage of the units would increase slightly when chang- ing the tuck -under garages to attached garages at the ends of the units. Dale Runkle explained the proposal, which includes essentially zero lot lines. Robert Hoffman, attorney, appeared for the applicant, as did Bill Fierke, Jim Nervig, Chuck Winden and Bill Allen. It was noted that the proposal is somewhat of a hybrid approach without strict precedent in the City. A number of neighboring property owners were present with concerns about reduction in property value, effect upon their association, etc. Mr. Hoffman stated that the development could provide for a new Homeowners Association. After considerable discussion, Mr. Hoffman requested that the application be • continued to allow the applicant to meet with the neighboring representatives. Mulrooney moved, Krob seconded the motion to continue the hearing until the next regular meeting in April 1984. All voted in favor. fif:� �? r� iliii►:Ty�+ii.��; y�T5if�}��i;Ril;i�ii;iiiy���i;i:�;ii�ll:�i The hearings were then convened regarding the application of U. S. Homes Corporation to rezone approximately 50 acres from R-4 (Residential Multiple) to R-1 PD (Residential Single District) with lot sizes which deviate from the R-1 zoning standards located in the West 1/2 of the Southwest 1/4 of Section 14 along and adjacent to Lexington Avenue. The second application was for preliminary plat approval of Lexington Place South containing 134 single family lots. Mr. Runkle noted that the parcel is zoned R-4 with an approved preliminary plat consisting of 360 dwelling units. The Comprehensive Guide designates the parcel R -II with a density of 6 units per acre. The proposed plan does conform as to density with approximately 7.2 dwelling units per acre. The gross density is 2.7 units per acre and the net density is about 4.0 units per acre, excluding street right-of-way and proposed open space. (` Mr. Runkle explained the zero lot line proposal and Mr. Hoffman appeared and stated that some roadway changes have been included in the proposal. The proposal calls for courtyard arrangements with setbacks provided at the side of each home with a perpetual easement granted adjacent for courtyard. The sale price will be $80,000.00 to $105,000.00. It was noted that there will be a homeowners association. Mr. Hoffman estimated there would be 800 fewer trips per day than the original proposal. A preliminary grading plan will be • submitted if the Planning Commission recommends approval and would be avail- able before consideration by the City Council. 5 0 0 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 Barry Tilley, a neighboring owner, appeared and favored the reduction in density from 360 to 134 R-1 units. He noted the City has requested that a C sanitary sewer easement be acquired, possibly across his property, and was also concerned about the pond at the southeast corner of the applicant's property, which could create additional water problems on his 5 acre parcel. The applicant indicated that there would be no additional run off to the south. Member Wilkins favored the rezoning to R-1. Twenty lots would be at the 6,600 minimum square footage, and the largest lots would be located in the southeast corner. Square footages of the units would be 935 square feet, 1,151 square feet and 1,704 square feet. Member Krob questioned whether the common area should be credited for park purposes and it was understood that the Park Committee will not do so. The frontage of all the lots are 60 feet except corner lots, and it is re- quested that interior lots be allowed a 20 foot setback from the corners, rather than 30 feet. There appear to be precedents as to the small lot sizes and it was noted that the Park Committee desires a 10 to 15 acre parcel for park purposes to the south and east. Member Wold suggested architectural review and Mr. Hof- fman stated of- fman,stated that U. S. Homes will build all the units in the development, and the developer will control the architectural style. It was recommended that the models proposed to be installed, be included in the exhibit in the Planned Development Agreement. After extensive discussion, Krob moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recommend approval of the rezoning application to R-1 Planned Development. All voted in favor, except Mulrooney who voted no. Krob then moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recommend approval of the prelimi- nary plat application, subject to the following conditions: 1. Adequate rights-of-way shall be dedicated for all of the public streets in this development proposal. 2. The plat shall be reviewed by the Dakota County Plat Commission because the plat abuts County rights-of-way. 3. The plat shall be subject to the Park Commission's review and com- ments regarding the open space proposed in this development proposal and park dedication requirements. C4.

Dale Runkle reviewed the application and indicated that the property is guided as R -I and the preliminary plat would consist of 1.6 dwelling units per acre. He noted that there were proposed cul-de-sacs because of the very rough terrain and the staff recommended that the two easterly cul-de-sacs be connected along the ridge only, rather than at the very ends of the cul-de-sacs. The lots all conform with the minimum standards and it was noted a neighborhood park is proposed to be acquired in the northern portion of the 120 -acre John Brown property from which farm this 7th Addition would be taken. Two of the three cul-de-sacs would require a variance. One is 510 feet and another at about 720 feet. Bill Dolan, Engineer, appeared on behalf of Tollefson Builders, and indicated that the 510 foot cul-de-sac will be shortened to conform. Joe O'Shaughnessy, a neighbor, was concerned about the increase in traffic until access to the east or north is installed. He suggested that methods be • employed to reduce the speed through the development to the west. It was noted that some methods are additional signing and strict enforcement of speed limits. Mr. Dolan stated there would be a significant amount of trees removed and a great deal of additional cost if the two cul-de-sacs were connected. Chairman Wold stated it did not appear to be practical to out an additional swap of land and trees in a heavily wooded area and also noted the very rough terrain. Wilkins moved, Mulrooney seconded the motion to recommend approval of the application for rezoning to R-1 and further, of preliminary plat approval, subject to the following conditions: 1. A detailed grading, drainage, erosion and sediment control plan shall be submitted and reviewed by the City staff prior to final plat approval. 2. Temporary turn-arounds shall be provided at the ends of each of the stubbed streets proposed in this development and setback' shall be permitted assuring no turn arounds are installed. 3. One variance shall be allowed on the middle cul-de-sac as proposed in the preliminary plat to prepare the existing trees and terrain. 4. No lot shall be below 12,000 square feet or 85 foot width at the 30 foot setback. 5. The applicant shall meet all other City ordinance requirements in regard to setbacks or residential homes and lot coverage. • 6. The plat shall be subject to the Park Commission's recommendation for park dedication. W E APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 0 7.

Dale Runkle reviewed the proposal, briefly noting that the parcel is zoned Public Facility and that the platted lot would include the new proposed Peace Reformed Church building and use of the outlot is unknown at the present time. The applicant is proposing to provide access to the outlot through the cul-de-sac separating Outlot A from Lot 1, common access from Nicols Road. Parking would be 1 space for each 3.5 seats, according to the plan. Dick Lundahl, the architect, was present and stated that the cul-de-sac would be installed to City standards and would be dedicated to the City, but ` would require a length variance. There were no objections to the application. Kroh moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recommend approval of the applica- tion, subject to the following conditions: 1. The plat shall be subject to MnDOT review and comment because the plat abuts State right-of-way. • 2. The plat shall also be subject to Dakota County Plat Commission's review and comment because Nicols Road is still a County Road. E 9 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 0 5.

CGROUP W ADDITION - PRELIMINARY PLAT The hearing regarding the application of Group W Cable, Inc. for prelimi- nary plat approval of Group W Addition was then presented to the Planning Commission. The proposal is to cover 1.8 acres with one lot located in the southwest quarter of Section 19, lying between Old Highway #13 and Old Sibley Memorial Highway. In addition, application for conditional use permit for the proposed Cable T.V. tower to exceed the normal height was brought under the Wind Energy and Tower Ordinance provision. Both the studio and tower for the cable television system for Eagan -Burnsville will be located on the site and in addition, five satellite dishes are being proposed. The City Code also requires that a tower shall be located on the property so that if the tower were to collapse or fall, it would fall entirely on the property it is con- structed on.' In the proposed location, this would not be true and therefore a variance would be required if the application were approved. In addition, a small variance for the building setback, due to its configuration would be required. • James W. Commers and Ray Connally appeared for the applicant and noted that the tower structure would not include guy wires, but would be a self- contained structure. Roger Slater who owns 1.2 acres to the north and 3 acres to the south appeared and objected to the application stating it would destroy the value of the 1.2 acre parcel of property around the plat. Mark Parranto, the agent for the owners to the south, also appeared and indicated that no plan has been prepared for the development of the property that he represented and he objected to any proposed assessments for Old Highway #13 street im- provements or for watermain improvements at the present time. He stated that his client had no objection to the development but objected to the upgrading of the road and watermain at the present time.' Neil Heine, who owns and lives on the residence directly to the north appeared and requested a continuance for additional study. He objected to the T.V. tower because of its alleged offensive site and its height. Mr. Commers stated that he expected the tower would be no higher than 100 feet and described the proposed construction to the Planning Commission mem- bers and those present. He indicated that it is only a receiving signal tower and there should be no electrical interference to any property owners in the area. He also stated that Group W would be covered by liability insurance backed by Western Electric Corporation. He stated that the applicant has investigated many sites in the Eagan -Burnsville area and noted that the tower could be moved to the west side of the building and it would not then, in the event of collapse, fall on neighboring property. Recommendations included all permits, including those from the FAA, should be applied for and acquired and • Mr. Commers stated that such applications are now in process. The schedule is to complete the building by September 1, 1984 and solicit subscribers in November of 1984. - 12 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 The neighboring owners continued to object even with the reduction in C height and the relocation. Krob moved, Wilkins seconded the motion to recom- mend approval of the application, noting that it is important that the site be located in Eagan, and the fact that there appear to be very few sites avail- able for such facilities, subject to the following conditions: 1. The parking area shall be surfaced with concrete curbing around the perimeter of the driving aisles and parking area. 2. A detailed grading, drainage and erosion control plan shall be submitted and reviewed prior to the final plat approval. 3. Old Sibley Highway should be upgraded to a minimum standard City street with the approval of this plat adjacent to this property. 4. A detailed landscape plan shall be submitted and approved by the City prior to the final plat, and an adequate landscape bond shall be sub- mitted and not released until one year after the landscaping has been com- pleted. • 5. The plat should be reviewed by Minnesota Highway Department of Transportation because the plat abuts highway rights-of-way. 6. The proposed tower shall be located on the west side of the building and all necessary permits shall be acquired. 7. The necessary sewer and water connection permits shall be obtained prior to final plat approval. 8. Easements shall be dedicated as stated in this report or as required by staff. 9. This development shall be responsible for its assessments for 175 feet of lateral benefit trunk water main at the rate in effect at the time of final platting. 10. Any additional costs for improving this lot shall be the sole re- sponsibility of this development. All voted in favor except Merkley who abstained and stated that he had a potential conflict of interest. Krob then moved to recommend approval of the conditional use permit with the condition that the tower not exceed 100 feet, that the City Engineer review and aprove the tower specifications, that the tower be constructed to withstand at least 100 mile per hour winds, that the City review the liability policy and that the applicant meet all other re- quired ordinance provisions. Wilkins seconded the motion and all voted in favor except Merkley who abstained. 13 9 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 0 CEDAR CLIFF COMMERCIAL 1ST ADDITION - PRELIMINARY PLAT AND AMENDMENT TO PLANNED DEVELOPMENT CThe hearing concerning the application of Woodd ale Inc. and James J. Durning for amendment to planned development and preliminary plat for Cedar Cliff Commercial 1st Addition was then convened. The proposal was to amend the 100% commercial site to allow 4.59 acres of commercial use in the south- west portion of Outlot G of the planned development and the balance to be used for office purposes in the Cedar Cliff planned development office complex consisting of a total of 15.8 acres. It was noted that the balance of the planned development has now been developed and it was noted the City has approved the preliminary plat but the County had not accepted the plat in the area because of access on Nicols Road. The proposed commercial area would contain a total of 24,000 square feet with 2,000 square feet for each of the two buildings proposed. 339 parking spaces will be provided with one space for each 70 square feet. The remaining office area would contain 8.85 acres and would contain 6 additional office sites. The applicant is proposing to provide an overall grading plan for the particular site and to grade the commercial site in the first phase and at the same time install 6 foot earthen • berms along the northerly property line separating the residential area. Jim Durning and his engineer were present and answered questions from the Planning Commission members and from residents that were present. A number of resi- dents were present and others, because of the late hour, had left earlier in the meeting. The proposal would provide for looped streets in and out to Nicols Road in the commercial area and the office area would have separate access to Nicols Road and Scott Trail. The neighbors present strongly objected to access to Scott Trail and at a neighborhood meeting the previous night, they had discussed the proposed project. The revised site plan was submitted at the Planning Commission meeting without a direct outlet to Scott Trail. Mr. Durning stated that he would conform with the neighbors' objection, that there be no viieo arcade or nightclubs and no 24 hour business operations. A petition from neighboring residents was submitted objecting to several aspects of the project. Three office sites on the east would have access on the north side of the commercial parcel to Nicols Road. Mr. Durning also stated that he would install evergreen landscaping along the berm to further shield the two areas. Steve Darling, another neighboring property owner who was present, dis- cussed the proposal and opposed commercial use because of the heavy commercial in the general area. Some neighbors recognized that there would not be development within the parcel until some commercial is approved. Mr. Durning stated that it was his opinion that about 50% of the tenants in the commercial • buildings would be office uses and that a PDQ would be the anchor with re - 14 0 APC Minutes • March 27, 1984 0 stricted hours of 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. It was also expected that the C Hillcrest development owners to the west of Nicols Road will ask for more access points on Nicols Road, noting that Mr. Durning is requesting at least three accesses from Cedar Cliff Commercial Park. Mr. Durning objected to the proposed continuity of architectural design between the commercial and office buildings,.noting it is not practical to require the office buildings to comply with the same design. After extended discussion, Wilkins moved, Krob seconded the motion to recommend the City Council approve the application subject to the following: 1. To recommend approval of the application to amend the Cedar Cliff Planned Development, which would include the revised site plan. 2. That the commercial tenants not be allowed to stay open more than from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. 3• That there be no video arcades, nightclubs or similar uses. 4. Further, that an architectural theme for the commercial buildings be • reviewed by the Advisory Planning Commission. All voted yes. Mr. Durning objected to the requirements of the con- tinuity of architectural design between the commercial and office complexes noting that it would not be practical to require the owners of the office buildings to comply with the same design as the commercial center. Wilkins then moved, Merkley seconded the motion to recommend approval of the prelimi- nary plat, subject to the following conditions: 1. A revised planned development agreement shall be entered into and this revised site plan shall be the main land use exhibit with this planned development agreement. 2. The first phase of the commercial area or preliminary plat shall meet all of the criteria for setbacks, parking, etc., in compliance with Chapters 11 and 13 of the City Code. 3.
