Introduction: PATRICK EAGAN PARK BACKGROUND NARRATIVE Patrick Eagan Park is the largest tract of City park land in the Eagan system. Consisting of approximately 114 acres, the park is located in the south center of the City. The primary access is located on the east side of the park, off of Lexington Avenue. A number of'informal, user developed accesses also exist, most often originating from the surrounding residential developments. Land for the park was acquired by the City of.Eagan, or Eagan Township prior to 1975, through a series of nine acquisitions, the first of which took place in 1972, the last in 2004.The acquisitions have included two residences, both of which still exist within the park and continue to be used. 'The Deerwood House on the west side is currently leased as a residence while the McCarthy House on the east is used for a variety of very popular studio arts programs. Funding for the acquisitions has come from a variety of sources including the City,. and State and Federal grants. A number of the grants have stipulations associated with them that limit how the park may be improved or used, most being themed around preservation and low impact. The use of the property surrounding the park property is highly variable. Large and small lot residential developments border significant portions of the park.. A naturalistic, privately owned, "Art, Park" abuts the park on the south end. A City owned, wooded; ten acre parcel, acquired in 2005 is located at the southeast corner of the park but is considered as a buffer to the park versus an extension of it. A large church is located on the Northeast border. The church and City share a paved parking lot located just north of the existing primary access from Lexington Avenue. This access point is soon to be eliminated and replaced with an access that flows directly into the paved lot and is controlled by a four way semaphore aligned with Northview Park Road. The character of the park itself can best be described as a steep natural bowl. The heavily wooded perimeter slopes to a wet land complex located at the bottom. The wetland complex functions as a significant component of the City storm water system, serving primarily as a retention basin. The natural inflows and outflows have been altered by the installation of control structures. The water quality is highly variable, depending upon climatic conditions. Erodable soils exist on several of the slopes with a number of active gullies having been formed. The woodlands are, also highly variable ranging from natural stands of mature oaks to stands of box elder and elm in areas that had been disturbed. Stands of coniferous trees that may have been introduced into the park can also be found. The most recent acquisition included several acres of what had been pasture land. Planned improvements within the park have been minimal. A series of natural surface trails of varying width meander through park and loop the wetlands. The trails are now used exclusively for hiking. Because of the difficulties associated with the steep slopes and potential impacts to the narrow trails, attempts at maintaining cross-country ski trails were' abandoned after several years. A number of wooden benches and some minimal interpretative signage have been installed along the trail by various Eagle Scouts.. Maintenance of the park has mirrored the minimalist approach to improvements being limited primarily to mowing and clearing the trail corridors and removing hazard and diseased trees. Attempts to contain the spread of invasive, non-native species have been accelerated in recent years. 19 Scope of Service This project contains three sub -projects described below: 1.

OLD BUSINESS A. FINAL PLAT AND FINAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT (DIFFLEY MARKETPLACE) — RELIANCE DEVELOPMENT ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To Approve a Final Plat (Diffley Marketplace ) creating one lot on approximately 10.94 acres located south of Diffley Road and east of Lexington Avenue, legally described as Outlot A, Lexington Pointe 13th Addition and Outlot A, Lexington Pointe 7th Addition, in the NW '/4 of Section 26; To Maintain or Delete or Modify condition #28 of the Approved Preliminary Planned. Development and Approve (or deny) a Final Planned Development for a retail commercial development (Diffley Marketplace) consisting of a 43,175 sq. ft. grocery store and two 10,000 sq. ft. multi -tenant retail buildings upon 10.94 acres located south of Diffley Road and east of Lexington Avenue, legally described as Outlot A, Lexington Pointe 13th Addition and Outlot A, Lexington Pointe 7th Addition, in the NW t/4 of Section 26, subject to conditions in the Council minutes; Cad To direct Findings of Fact for Denial on the revised Preliminary/Final Development Site Plan submitted on March 10, 2006. REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: At least three votes. FACTS: ➢ The City Council approved a Preliminary Planned Development on October 6, 2005. Condition #28 of that approval stated: "The driveway connection to Daniel Drive shall be eliminated and the plans resubmitted to Dakota County for review." The proposed site plan modification to eliminate the Daniel Drive access was resubmitted to the County's Plat Commission and subsequently denied. This denial was then appealed to the County Board, and the County Plat Commission's denial was upheld. ➢ _ Following the suggestions and concerns of the Plat Commission as stated in their denial letter, the development plans were modified to show a %-access at Diffley Road and a one- way "entrance only" access from Daniel Drive. The City then submitted a formal request to the Plat Commission for a required variance to its access spacing guidelines. �J 1 ➢ On March 7, 2006 the Dakota County Plat Commission recommended approval of the variance to the County's Access Spacing Guidelines with the condition that the existing full access from Diffley Rd. be reconstructed to the more limited3/4-access configuration with a one-way "entrance only" connection to Daniel Dr. They also recommended approval of the Preliminary and Final Plat submittals, which already incorporated these anticipated conditions. On March 21, the County Physical Development Committee (of the whole) did not accept their Plat commission's recommendation of approval and they further stipulated that ultimate County Board approval would require a full 2 -way access to Daniel Dr. ➢ Although the Developer has not ,yet submitted revised site plans eliminating all access to Daniel Dr. as required by Condition #28, a Final Planned Development Agreement and Site Plan for the first phase development (grocery store and two retail buildings) incorporating a one-way connection to Daniel Dr. has been prepared for City Council consideration. ISSUES: ➢ It is anticipated that the full County Board (meeting on Tuesday morning, April 4) will be . considering their Physical Development Committee's recommendation to require the Diffley Marketplace development incorporate a 2 -way access to Daniel Dr. Results of that meeting, and any action affecting potential City Council approval options for this development, will be provided at the Council meeting Tuesday night. ➢ If any access connection to Daniel Dr. (one-way or two-way) is given consideration by the Council, it should incorporate the appropriate amendment to condition #28 of the approved Preliminary Planned Development. ➢ With no access to Daniel Dr. (resulting in no variance to the County's access spacing guidelines), the County will require the current full access median break to be closed limiting access to the development and the west parking lot of Northview Elementary School to a right-in/right-out movement only. Also, without the additional traffic volume at the intersection of Daniel Dr and Diffley Rd., it is doubtful that warrants will ever be met to justify the installation of a traffic signal at that location.

City Attorney Dougherty explained the legal constraints presented by the property's current zoning in light of the Comprehensive Guide Plan. He also clarified the consequences of approval, denial, or continuance of the item City Planner Ridley gave a staff report outlining deviations and variances as well as reasons for denial by the APC. i Council asked for clarification between the differences between the zoning of Planned Development and Neighborhood Business as it relates to the proposed development. City Planner Ridley provided a comparison of the two options. Council asked for an overview of the process for rezoning to Neighborhood Business. City Attorney Dougherty stated the process and clarified that there would be little legal stance to deny the application to Neighborhood Business rezoning. Mayor Geagan asked for comments from the developer. John Trouts of Reliance Development Company, .a partner in Diffley Ventures, thanked the Council for the previous continuance. He stated that his development would provide an attractive architectural package, an over -standard green space including an outdoor plaza, and finally a unified development plan providing continuity to the area. He also expressed interest in reducing residential and commercial traffic mix by engaging, the developer, the City and Dakota County in constructing a full access entrance with traffic light at the main access point on Diffley. He said that if the main access point on Diffley had a traffic light, there would be no need for an access point off of Daniel Drive. He also pledged to pay for 75% of the traffic light.

City Engineer Matthys reviewed the traffic options and summarized the County's specifications on access points. Council directed staff to discuss the options.further with the County, preferring a fully signalized main access point to be across from the elementary school on Diffley, full access to Daniel Drive and no Daniel Drive access to the development. Council discussed landscaping options in the development, specifying desire for double -stacked evergreens and a decorative fence along property line to discourage walk-through traffic. Mayor Geagan opened for public comment.

We are in favor, if the possibility exists, for a traffic signal to be placed on Diffley Road, Daniel Drive and the east entrance/exit to Northview Elementary School. A controlled intersection at that location would enable School District 196 buses, as well as parents, who are dropping off students better and safer access as well as more efficiency to Northview Elementary School, as we understand the possibilities. Even though School District 196 provides busing for the neighborhoods located across Diffley Road north, we are aware of children crossing Diffley Road on their own volition going -to and from Northview Elementary School, Dakota Hills Middle School and Eagan High School as well as children crossing Diffley Road during non -school times for athletic events being held on the grounds just north of Northview Elementary School and the Northview Park grounds.

I am writing to urge the City Council to accept the access plan approved by the Dakota County Board at its most recent meeting. Specifically, the County Board approved a three-quarter access linking both the Diffley Ventures and corresponding elementary school sites to Diffley Road. The County has approved the Diffley Road access on condition that the Daniel Drive access to the Diffley Ventures site remain "full access" to allow ingress and egress for neighborhood vehicle traffic. While we understand the City would prefer the Daniel access be limited to an entrance only (we had previously accepted that limitation as either full or restricted access works for us), the County is unwilling to accept this limitation. The ownership of Diffley Ventures feels that they have done what is possible to help resolve this question. Therefore, we respectfully urge that the City of Eagan concur in the Diffley Road/Daniel Drive. access as approved by Dakota County. Please call me if you have any questions. ly, Pet. oyle, for Larkin Hoffman Daly & Lindgren Ltd.

The applicant would like to continue providing dog "babysitting" services at her home. AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subdivision 5 states, in part, 1. The provisions of this chapter may be amended by the majority vote of the council, except that amendments changing the boundaries of any district or changing the regulations. of any district may only be made by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the council. 2. The Council shall not rezone any land in any zoning district or make any other proposed amendment to this chapter without first having referred it to the planning commission for its consideration and recommendation. BACKGROUND/HISTORY This property consists of a %z acre lot located on a cul-de-sac that backs up to 35E. The applicant has periodically taken in special -needs dogs at the subject site -over the past year or so, unaware that there was any Code violation. For an average month, Ms. Tscherne will baby sit for 3 dogs for a total of 12 days. Planning Report — Tscherne PDA March 28, 2006 Paize 2 EXISTING CONDITIONS The single family home built in 1993 is located about 50 feet from the cul-de-sac near the southwest corner of the lot. A fence extends from the north-east corner of the garage, around the entire backyard and reconnects with the southeast corner of the house: The applicant has three dogs in her home. The City of Eagan Animal Control Officer has visited the site and she reports that the dogs are all well -cared, the animal rooms are spotless, and that there have not been any reported traffic issues SURROUNDING USES The site is surrounded by single family homes, zoned PD and guided LD, and I -35E. EVALUATION OF REQUEST Code Requirements — The property is zoned PD Planned Development. Section 11.67 states in part, "uses approved and permitted under a planned development shall only include permitted, conditional and accessory uses allowed in residential districts in the city and those business, industry and institutional uses specifically approved as part of the planned development and in accordance with standards herein provided." r Planning Report — Tscherne PDA March 28, 2006 Page 3 Section 6.38 City, Code defines a kennel as "any place, building, tract of land, abode or vehicle, wherein or whereon a total of four or more dogs, cats, ferrets, or rabbits or combination thereof, over six months of age, are kept, kept for sale, or boarded." Additionally, a license is required to operate or maintain a kennel. The license requirements and other City Code provisions relate specifically to the operations and conditions in which the animals are kept. If approved, .the City Code requires an administrative kennel license (in addition to the Planned Development Amendment). Therefore, there will be regular inspections by the Animal Control Officer for the annual kennel permit. Proposal — The applicant states that she cares for no more. than 4 outside dogs at any given time. She further states that she would not need to change anything on her property, physically or structurally, if the request is `granted. The request is not for a full-time kennel operation but, rather, she cares for dogs only as needed by their owners. The dogs she cares for are primarily geriatric or special needs dogs that require, among other things, medication, special diets, and' special attention or those that are emotionally challenged. The applicant's narrative states: "This work is my life,. my passion, and my formal training and education. By you allowing me to occasionally baby-sit a few special needs dogs; I feel that I am contributing greatly to the public's need for a safe, healthy, place to leave your dog which hopefully leaves you with a total piece of mind. I am 52 years old and everything I have done in my life prior to now, has led me to this point. I welcome any restrictions; visitations by city officials, and annual renewal." Numerous neighbors have written letters (attached) on behalf of the applicant. Site Plan — The applicant's home is not designed, or setup, for a standard kennel operation. Ms. Tscherne has 2 bedrooms in her home reserved for visiting dogs. Each bedroom contains at least one twin -sized mattress that lies on the ground to allow the dogs a comfortable place to relax. The rooms are decorated in an animal motif and include food and water dishes, toys, treats, and even cable television. The back yard is completely fenced in with a large, wooden, privacy fence to allow the dogs room to run and exercise. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Lesley Tscherne is requesting the approval of a Planned Development Amendment to allow a kennel on the 1/2 acre lot located at 3812 Blackhawk Ridge Place. A kennel is required, by City Code, to house more than four dogs at any one property. Ms. Tscheme has three dogs of her own and she would like to continue providing occasional dog "babysitting" services at her home. ��A. dp Planning Report — Tscherne PDA March 28, 2006 Page 4 As proposed, the applicant would be caring for no more than 4 guest dogs at any one time, most of which are special needs pets that require a high level of care and would not function well in a traditional kennel environment. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Planned Development. Amendment to allow a kennel on property located at 3812 Blackhawk Ridge Place in the SE corner of section 16. If approved the following conditions shall apply: 1. The Planned Development Amendment Agreement shall be recorded against the property at Dakota County. 2. The premises are allowed no more than four (4) guest dogs at any one time. 3. The applicant must maintain a current kennel license issued by the City. 4. No full-time boarding of animals for commercial purposes may occur on this property. 5. The operations of the kennel must comply with the standards in Chapter 10 of the City Code regarding the keeping of animals..

They are primarily geriatric, elderly or with special needs, be it physical or mental. I actually have been doing this for a little over a year without realizing this would constitute running a "kennel". A "Good Samaritan" felt the need to inform the City of Eagan of my occasional caring for dogs and that's why I'm here before you now. • There is no time line because nothing at all needs to change from how my home is now. • The. existing, land use of the subject property is "planned development" or "my home". My house is 3200 sf sitting on almost a'/2 acre of land contained within a wooden privacy fence. The majority of my Land backs up to 35E. • My home is in a planned development. There are 16 homes within 350 feet of my property. Seven of these homes are actually in an entirely different cul de sac but happen to shoot off the back of my back yard. • The impact of this planned development amendment will not change one thing to the surrounding area. Nothing will change physically or structurally if this request is granted. Everything will be the same as it has been since I moved in in 1997. My property borders 35E on the entire back of my home. I live on a quiet cul de sac with Blackhawk Lake directly behind the houses across the cul de sac. I have included letters from my immediate neighbors stating that this would not be a problem or ever has been. These dogs lounge very comfortably within one of my 2 guest bedrooms. ( letters and photos inclosed) • The impact of this planned development amendment is nil. Not one thing will change the ,st blest property itself. It will be as it has been for the last 9 years. • In regards to your question of the -impact of this planned development amendment on city services such as sewer, water, storm water run-off and roads is ZERO. Nothing is affected. • In regards to the question of whether this proposed land use amendment would result in better use of the land, I definitely feel that helping a couple of elderly or special needs dogs in a quiet, loving, knowledgeable environment, couldn't be anything but a "better" use of 2 spare bedrooms in a big, empty house I have never, ever had one animal related complaint filed against me. Thank you for your attention RECEIVED FEB 152006 u -Written -narrative concisely-describing_the_"publlc_beriefit" of the proposed amendment How many of you have or know of a dog that is either: • elderly, geriatric or just on in years ? • physically challenged in some way be it blind, deaf, or could even have something as common as hip dysplasia and needs help walking or just getting around? • has anxiety issues and needs special attention and comfort? • needs ear or eye ointment daily or is taking daily pills ? has an ongoing chronic illness such as Pancreantitus, Addison's, Cushings disease? • very sensitive or in an emotional state that leaving it alone in a traditional kennel would mentally or physically end up traumatizing them? What I have done is opened the two guest bedrooms in my home to a small number of dogs. (4 max.) They are usually owned by my neighbors, friends or relatives. The people that ask for my help greatly fear leaving their pets behind when they need to travel for personal, business or inevitable family emergencies. (hospitalization, family crisises). I have made these rooms as safe, sanitary and comfortable as possible. They include human beds along with puffy dog beds. They have color television with cable. It is not unusual for me to talk with these parents daily regarding the health of their dogs. When I watch a dog for you, it has my full attention. I do special diets. I lifts and carry the lame ones outside. I nurture and love the emotionally challenged ones. I administer daily medicines and frequently care for them late at night when no one is around in a conventional kennel situation. Being I only baby sit a couple of dogs, bordetella or kennel cough is unheard of when they stay with me. Sometimes, the dog is not the issue as much as the owners. When family emergencies or medical crisises arise, giving proper notice at a traditional kennel can be a problem. I am always flexible and ready to help in these situations. Frequently in an emergency, I will drive to pick up these dogs allowing the parents to attend to and concentrate on their crisis. Please understand, I am not asking to run a kennel operation. I am not asking to allow dogs to run wild and bark in my back yard. My caregiving is the total opposite of that. I am only asking your permission to allow me to care for a few special dogs (only 2 families) in the privacy of my home. I have never had a noise complaint. I have never had a feces complaint.. I have a Y2 acre of land that is fenced and live on a quiet cul de sac backing up to 35E. Most of my neighbors never even knew what I did until I told them. Then, they would ask me to help their dog. From 1995 to 1999, 1 created and ran one of the most well established and respected dog facilities in the country. (Silver Dog Bed and Biscuit) This work is my life, my passion and my formal training and education. By you allowing me to occasionally babysit a few special needs dogs, I feel that am contributing greatly to the publics need for a safe, healthy place to leave your dog which hopefully leaves you with total "peace of mind". I am 52 years old and everything I have done in my life prior to now has led me to this point. I welcome any restrictions, visitations by city officials, and annual renewal. Thank you very much G RECEIVED FEB 15 - --- ..__...... -..-_ .. . McClea , Monica J MONICA MCCLEARY 525 STAPLES AVE. MENDOTA HEIGHTS, MN 55118 PHONE 651-457-2425 January 24, 2006 To Whom it may concern, Lesley Tscherme has cared for our dog, Huey, for the last two years when we have been out of town. Prior to this, Huey stayed with my parents who took care of him when we were gone. In October 2003 1 lost both of my parents in one week so I had no one else to take him. It has been a blessing to us to have Lesley to take him. Huey is a ten year old Skye terrier. This is a fairly rare breed and he was quite an expensive pet to buy. Huey requires very special care for a severe health condition. He is afflicted by Addison's disease, which is the total absence of adrenal function. In other words his adrenal glands can not produce glucocorticoids or mineral corticoids whcih are essential to life itself. Because of this illness he needs to take prednisone every day and sees the veterinarian once monthly for injections of desoxycorticosterone. Huey also has protein losing enteropathy and has to be kept on a fairly strict diet. Lesley is able to make sure he has his medication and special diet every day. We feel very confident that his health needs are being met when he stays at her house. He is comfortable there. Stress in a dog with Addison's disease can lead to an Addisonian crisis which is life threatening. He would do poorly in a kennel where he would not get the tender care that Lesley provides. I don't know what we would do if she was unable to take Huey into her home. Please contact me if I can be of further assisstance. Sincerely, Monica J.

We need you to know that Lesley occasionally baby sitting a dog or two, has NEVER adversely affected us. We have never experienced additional traffic. We have never, heard any barking. We have never seen feces in either her front yard or back yard. (which we have a perfect view of from our deck!) We no longer have a dog but when we did, Lesley was always ready to help us out when we needed her. Our dog was elderly and was on daily medicine. The fact that she desperately cares about the welfare of these special pets was always very reassuring when we had to leave him. We sincerely hope she is allowed to continue.

COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN AMENDMENT AND REZONING - SUNRISE PROPERTIES ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To direct that a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from LD, Low Density residential to HD, High Density residential, upon approximately 5.1 acres located northwest of Hwy. 13 and Silver Bell Road be submitted to the Metropolitan Council for review and approval (OR direct preparation of findings for denial). REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: At least four votes. FACTS: ➢ The site consists of two unplatted.parcels comprising 5.1 acres and containing an existing single-family home which was constructed in 1966. ➢ The property is surrounded by single-family, multiple -family and industrial uses. ➢ The property is heavily wooded with a ravine along the west edge of the site. ➢ This site sits adjacent to property of Metropolitan Council Environmental Services,, on which Kennealy Creek and an extensive wetland area exist. ➢ Development of this site raises issues with tree removal, potential for erosion, and protection of sensitive natural resources nearby. ➢ The site is located within the one -mile buffer area of the 60 dB contour, placing it within Airport Noise Policy Zone 4.. Shared -entry multi -family residential dwellings are anticipated to be a provisional use within the Buffer Zone. As such, sound attenuation construction standards will apply. Public street access to the site is currently provided via Wuthering Heights- Road. ➢ The Applicant's concept plan shows access via private street easements over other private property. This is not consistent with City Code. Access should be provided via public street. ➢ If access is provided via Wuthering Heights Road, it would need to be upgraded to current City standards with concrete curb and gutter and bituminous paving. ➢ The proposed HD land use designation allows 12+ units per acre. ➢ The proposed R-4 zoning is consistent with the HD land use designation. ➢ The APC held a public hearing on March 28, 2006 and recommended approval of the Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment and denial of the Rezoning to R-4. The APC stated that PD zoning would be more appropriate given the sensitive nature of the site and the issues concerning access. ISSUES: ➢ Surrounding industrial and other multi -family development in the area, as well as the airport noise compatibility guidelines, support the proposed change to a land use designation of HD. ➢ Since Comprehensive Guide Plan amendments are subject to review and approval of the Metropolitan Council, formal action on the associated Rezoning will be withheld until the Metropolitan Council has responded to the proposed Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment. It is still appropriate for the Council to comment on the proposed Rezoning from A to R-4 at this time. ➢ Given the sensitive physical characteristics -- trees, topography and proximity to a sensitive wetland and the Minnesota River flats -- as well as the applicant's desire to utilize new driveway accesses via private easements rather than the existing public street access, the APC stated that a PD, Planned Development zoning would be more appropriate than the proposed R-4.

ZONING: A, Agriculture; R-4, Residential multiple SUMMARY OF REQUEST Sunrise Properties is requesting a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from LD, Low Density residential to HD, High Density residential, and a. Rezoning from A, Agriculture, to R-4, Residential Multiple, upon approximately 5.1 acres Iodated northwest of Hwy. 13 and Silver Bell Road in the SE'/a of Section 18. AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment: The city's Comprehensive Guide Plan was prepared pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 473.864. As defined by statute, the Land. Use Plan is 'a guide and may be amended from time to time as conditions change. The city's Guide Plan is to be implemented by official controls such as zoning and other fiscal devices. The creation of land use districts and zoning is a formulation of public policy and a legislative act. As such, the classification of land uses must reasonably relate to promoting the public health, safety, morals and general welfare. When a change to a city's Comprehensive Guide Plan is requested, it is the city's responsibility to' determine if the change is in the best long-range interests of the city. The standard of review of a city's action in approving or denying a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment is whether there exists a rational basis. A rational basis standard has been described to mean having legally sufficient reasons supportable by the facts which promote the general health, safety and welfare of the city. Planning Report = Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 2 Rezoning: City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subd. 5 states in part, 1. The provisions of this chapter may be amended by the majority vote of the council, except that amendments changing the regulations of any district may only be made by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the council. 2. The City Council shall not rezone any land or area in any zoning district or make any other proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance without first having referred it to the planning commission for its consideration and recommendation. BACKGROUND/HISTORY Histo . — The single-family residential neighborhood which includes this site was initially within Cedar Grove Special Area #5 as designated in the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan, and the Cedar Grove Redevelopment District. The City adopted policies for Special Area #5 and for the Cedar Grove Redevelopment that would prevent further subdivision of land and construction of new single-family homes in this area. Based on the request of the neighborhood, the City later adjusted the boundaries of the Special Area and Cedar Grove Redevelopment District to exclude the residential neighborhood, however, staff believes the adopted policies remain valid. Area Development — The site is surrounded by a variety of different uses. Public Facilities to the west, industrial to the north and east, multiple residential to the south, and single-family residential to the west. Zonin — The property is currently zoned A, Agriculture. The property had a variety of zoning designations throughout the 1960s and early 1970s. Between 1960 and 1974 the zoning included industrial, single-family residential, residential 4-plex and residential multiple. In 1974 the property was zoned single-family residential which it remained until 1981 when the zoning was changed to Agriculture. The property is currently zoned Agriculture. Comprehensive Land Use Plan — The City's Comprehensive Guide Plan currently designates the property for LD, Low Density residential use. In 1974, the land use designation was R -M, Mixed Residential (3-6 units/acre), and in 1980, it changed to Industrial. With the update of the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan in 2001; at the request of the residential neighborhood, the City achieved consistency between the land use and zoning of the residential neighborhood -- including this property -- by changing the land use designation from Limited Industrial to LD, Low Density residential; the adjacent apartments to the south were designated HD, High Density residential: EXISTING CONDITIONS The site consists of two unplatted parcels and contains a single-family home which was constructed in 1966. The property is heavily wooded with significant variations in topography. 10 Planning Report = Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 3 SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the subject property: Existing Use North Seneca Plant South Apartments/Lo East Industrial Northwest/ Vacant/Single- Southwest family EVALUATION OF REQUEST Proposal I-1, Limited Industrial R-4, Multiple Residential I-1, Limited Industrial PF, Public Facilities/ R-1, Single Family Residential Land Use Designation IND, Limited Industrial HD, High Density residential IND, Limited Industrial QP, Quasi -Public/ LD, Low Density residential The applicant, Sunrise Properties, proposes to change the land use designation from LD, Low Density residential to HD, High Density residential upon approximately 5.1 acres located at 2101 Wuthering Heights Road. A Rezoning of the property from A, Agriculture, to, R-4, Residential Multiple is also proposed. The HD land use designation allows for gross residential densities of 12+ units per acre. The R-4 zoning requires a minimum lot area per unit of 2,750 sq. ft. for buildings containing more than 6 units. The R-4 lot requirement of 2,750 sq. ft. per unit results in a density of 15.8 units per acre.' The Concept Plan submitted by the applicant shows a four-story 107 -unit apartment building on the 5.1 -acre site. The Concept Plan includes an adjacent 1.7 -acre parcel to the south which would be used for ponding and access. The adjacent parcel is currently guided HD and zoned R-4 and thus, does not require the same land use amendment or rezoning. In support of the land use and zoning change for the 5:1 -acre site, the applicant's narrative states it is their intent "to provide multiple family housing, while minimizing the impact to adjacent single family residences." The narrative further states that because of recent office/warehouse development to the north, apartment/condominium development to the southeast, and the recent opening of Runway 17/35 at the MSP airport, "the site's continued use as single family i. residential is not compatible with these uses." The applicant's narrative indicates the following reasons the proposed land use and zoning amendments result in abetter use of the land: a) "multiple. family housing is the highest and best use of the land;" b) "it will have a significant impact on the redevelopment of the area"; c) it "will provide positive economic benefits to the residents of Eagan"; and d) "it will provide work force housing for the nearby employment centers." "Im Planning Report_.- Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 4 Environmental Impacts Topogaphy — The site is heavily wooded and generally slopes to the northwest. A heavily wooded ravine extends along the west edge of ,the site. The ravine has steep slopes with significant natural resource considerations, including tree preservation and impacts to downstream property. This ravine is directly above the Minnesota River flats, and appears to be highly susceptible to erosion., The ravine should be subject to stringent temporary and permanent erosion control measures with any type of land use and development. The preliminary concept plan submitted shows potential development within the; southern portion of the ravine area. Given the significant natural resources within and downstream from the development site, consideration should be given to limiting development to outside the ravine area. Storm Drainage — Development of this site will require the construction of storm water ponding to control rate of runoff and for water quality purposes. TreesNegetation —Development of this site will be subject to conditions of the City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance (City Code Chapter 11, Section 11. 10, Subd. 15.1). According to City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance, allowable removal of significant vegetation for this type of development (multiple -lot, multi -unit residential) is set at 47.5%. Tree removal exceeding the allowable limit is an exception to the ordinance. In that event, the developer must demonstrate "practical difficulties or practical hardships result[ing] from strict compliance." The developer will need to submit a Significant Tree/Woodland Inventory and Tree Preservation Plan at the time of building permit application. If removal exceeds the allowable limit, mitigation is required in compliance with the Tree Preservation Ordinance. In that event, a Tree Mitigation Plan demonstrating compliance with mitigation requirements will also be necessary. The applicant acknowledges that "significant grading and tree removal will likely occur on the property in order to meet its intended multi -family use." and that the adjacent 1.7-acres,"could provide an area for tree mitigation, if needed." Wetlands/Wildlife — Because of the steep slopes on the property and potential for erosion as a result of construction, it may be appropriate to have the proposed development reviewed by the Lower Minnesota River Watershed District, in which the property lies. There are no jurisdictional wetlands on the property; however, this site sits adjacent to immediately adjacent to property of Metropolitan Council Environmental Services, on which Kennealy Creek and an extensive wetland area exist. Water Ouality — Because of the size of the proposed development, stormwater treatment ponding would be required at the time of development and is expected to meet a majority of Eagan's water quality requirements. Airport Noise Considerations — The City of Eagan considered airport noise as a factor in its Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan. The Metropolitan Council has adopted an Aviation Chapter Planning Report — Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 5 in its Transportation Policy Plan that anticipates the impacts from the continue(. operauan of u70 airport at its current location. Historically, the City has attempted, where possible, to minimize land uses that would be in conflict with operations at MSP. The City's adopted Comprehensive Guide Plan currently designates the area as LD, Low Density residential. The site is located 3.5 miles south of the north -south runway at MSP, adjacent to the arrival and departure flight track for that runway. Based on the Metropolitan Council Policy Contours adopted in 1996, the site is located within the one -mile buffer area of the 60 dB contour, placing it within Noise Policy Zone 4. The Met Council has recently adopted new land use compatibility guidelines, which incorporate the 2007 Noise Policy Contours. Under the new guidelines it -is anticipated that shared -entry multi -family residential dwellings will be a provisional use within the Buffer Zone. This property is located within Airport Noise Policy Zone 4. With the opening of the new North- South runway at MSP in Fall 2005, this property experienced increased exposure to aircraft overflights. Architectural designs and construction methods for construction of a shared -entry multi -family building should incorporate sound attenuation standards sufficient to achieve an interior sound level of 45 dBA. Infrastructure Impacts Access — The subject site is not land -locked; public street access is, and should continue to be, provided via Wuthering Heights Road. However, the applicant does not propose to. utilize the existing public street. The Concept Plan shows driveway accesses at two locations, both via private easement across adjacent properties. This request could be accommodated through a Variance (with a demonstrated hardship) or Planned Development zoning: The applicant has indicated that there is currently a private easement across the existing apartment complex property at 2099 Silver Bell Road. The other proposed access onto Kennebec Drive will require the acquisition by the applicant of a private easement across Lot 1, Block 1 Cedar Bluffs Business Center (3711 Kennebec Drive), a recently constructed office/ warehouse facility. The City Code does not allow for parcels where access is provided only by private streets. While the'applicant has indicated "impacts to the [single-family] residential neighborhood to the west will be minimized,by prohibiting access to the residential street," this street, Wuthering Heights Road, is the galpublic street frontage available to the site. The concept plan submitted does not depict access to Wuthering Heights Road, a rural -section gravel road within public right-of-way south of the site. Public street access to development of thissite should be via Wuthering Heights Road. If access is provided onto Wuthering Heights Road, the entire length of street from Silver Bell Road would need to be upgraded to current City standards with concrete curb and gutter, storm sewer, and bituminous paving. IVA Planning Report — Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 . Page 6 Fire/Emerjgency Access — The Fire Marshal has indicated that any multi -family development on this site will need to provide emergency drive lanes such that access is provided, at a minimum, to within 150 feet of all points of the building. The developer should be aware of this as it may require additional grading on the northwest side of the building to accommodate such an emergency access, and may increase site disturbance, tree loss and potential for erosion. Utilities — Water main and sanitary sewer service is readily available to serve development of the property. Comprehensive Land Use Impacts Historically, this site has been zoned for residential use since the 1960s. The most recent update to the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan designated this site for LD, Low Density, residential development (0-4 units per acre). The site is adjacent to a variety of other uses — single-family residential, multi -family residential and limited industrial. The proposed multi -family use of the property would be an extension of existing multi -family development to the south, and a contrast to the existing single-family homes to the west. The existing apartment buildings are three -stories in height. The proposed high density use is compatible with land use policies relative to the airport and noise exposure. School System This property is located in ISD 4191 and would be served by Sioux Trail Elementary (Burnsville), Metcalf Junior High School, (Eagan), and Burnsville Senior High School (Burnsville). The district indicated approximately. 32 students would be anticipated from a multiple family development on this property, as opposed to approximately 27 students if the property redeveloped as single-family. Parks and Recreation System Neighborhood Parks System — The designated neighborhood park serving this area is Woodhaven Park. Woodhaven Park is located southeast of Hwy. 13 at Cedar Grove Parkway and Gold Trail. The Silver Bell Road and Hwy. 13 intersection is a controlled intersection with an at -grade pedestrian crossing. This site is also in close proximity to the State Park along the Minnesota River which provides access to walking and bicycle trails as well a boat access to the river. In addition to these existing parks, the Advisory Parks and Recreation.Commission is reviewing whether additional parks and recreation needs should be incorporated into the Cedar Grove Redevelopment which may provide additional parks services for the area. Park and Trail Dedications — Not applicable since there is no subdivision application. 0 Planning Report — Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 7 Zoning Zoning, A rezoning to R-4 is proposed. This request is consistent with the proposed HD land use designation. While the applicant has provided a concept plan, there is no guarantee under R- 4 zoning that the concept plan is what will be developed on the site. Actual plans for building permit may be different, and provided such plans are in conformance with R-4 zoning and other ordinances, constructionwould be allowed to proceed. Given the sensitive physical characteristics -- trees, topography and proximity to a sensitive I etland and the Minnesota River flats -- as well as the applicant's desire to utilize new driveway accesses via private easements rather than the existing public street access, the applicant may want to consider a rezoning request to PD, Planned Development. The intent of Planned Development zoning is: a. Providing greater flexibility in environment design and relaxation of strict application of the zoning ordinance in exchange for greater creativity and environmental sensitivity. b. Recognizing the economic and cultural advantages. that will accrue to the residents of a planned community. c. Encouraging a more creative and efficient approach to the use of the land. d. Encouraging the preservation and enhancement of desirable site characteristics, natural features, and open space. e. Encouraging a development pattern that is consistent with the land use density, transportation facilities and community facilities objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.. Due to the significant natural features of the site and area and proposed private access, staff suggests a Planned Development (PD) zoning may be more appropriate. A PD zoning does not guarantee policy makers would approve private access; however, it would provide the City with significantly more control over the ultimate development and the sensitivity of same. Densit — The proposed R-4 zoning requires a minimum site size of 2,750 sq. ft. per unit. The two parcels which make up the development site total 6.8 acres. Applying the R-4 lot requirements of 2,750 sq. ft. per unit, a maximum of 107 units could be developed on the site; the concept plan shows a 107 -unit building. This translates into a density of 15.7 units per acre. Recreation Space Required — The. City's zoning ordinance requires that multiple -family dwelling complexes "shall have a minimum recreation area equal to 200 sq. ft. for each dwelling unit containing two or fewer bedrooms and 100 additional square feet for each dwelling unit containing more than two bedrooms. Said recreation area shall be a minimum of 100 feet from any ponding area." Based on the concept plan, submitted by the applicant, a total of 20,110 square feet of recreation area must be provided with the development. Evaluation of specific development plans for compliance with the recreation space ordinance will be done at the time of building permit application. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Planning Report — Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 8 Sunrise Properties is proposing a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from LD, Low Density residential to HD, High Density residential, and a Rezoning from A, Agriculture, to R-4, Residential Multiple, upon approximately 5.1 acres of land north of Hwy. 13 and west of Silver Bell Road. The applicant anticipates developing the site in conjunction with adjacent property to the southeast which is currently guided HD and zoned R-4, resulting in a development site of 6.8 acres. Surrounding industrial and other multi -family development in the area, as well as the airport noise compatibility guidelines, support the proposed change to a land use designation of HD and zoning designation of R-4. However, any development of the property will raise concerns about site disturbance, grading in areas of steep slopes, tree removal, and the potential for erosion and. detrimental impacts to nearby sensitive natural resources (e.g. river, fen). This combined with the developer's_ desire to provide access only using private streets via private easements, suggest that the City and/or the developer consider modifying the rezoning request to PD, Planned Development, which allows for greater flexibility in the application of the ordinance in exchange for greater creativity and environmental sensitivity. Staff believes public access to the proposed development is appropriate and, further, that the Planning Commission and City Council should consider that the time has come to upgrade Wuthering Heights Road to City standards, if development of the subject site occurs. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from LD, Low Density residential to HD, High Density residential, upon approximately 5.1 acres located northwest of Hwy. 13 and Silver Bell Road in the SE 1/4 of Section 18.

The site's continued use as single family residential is not compatible with these uses. In requesting the change in zoning, we are addressing the following issues: What impact does the rezoning have on surrounding property and land uses? The change in zoning is compatible with the adjacent land uses and d zo on . kering Heights RoadThe residential Property , to the east could be adversely impacted by additional residential the only public right -of way accessing the site. What impact does the rezoning bave on the subject property? The construction of multiple family housing will have an impact on the site as it is currently used. The grading and removal of trees will visually change the character of the property. What impact does the rezoning have on City services, such as sewer, water, stormwater run-off and roads? The property is primarily an infill parcel and it is believed adequate city services are available and will have minimal impact on the City of Eagan. Does the requested land use proposed by the rezoning result in a better use of the land? est and best use of the land. Yes. We believe the zone change to multiple loP en of he ary housing is ea, and will provide positive economic . It will have a significant impact on the redevelopm benefits to the residents of Eagan. In addition, it will provide work force housing for the nearby em- ployment centers. Bassett Property SUNRISE PROPERTIES Page 7 LanA Use C , Plan The combined project area includes 5.11 acres of the Bassett property and 1.72 acres of prop- erty owned by Silverpines Acquisitions. The Silverpines property is currently zoned R-4. Ac- quisition cquisition of this property provides access to Silver Bell Road. In addition, acquisition of right -of -Way from the Cedar Bluffs Business Center to the east could provide public access to the site. The only public access to the site is Wuthering Heights Road, which enters the property from the west through an exist- ing xisting single family neighborhood. Access to the site through this road is discouraged in order to minimize traffic impacts on the neighborhood. We propose a residential development of apartments. -1 he multi -family use proposed for the site provides a transition and buffer to the adjacent light industrial uses and is compatible with the adjacent multi family uses. Impacts to the residential neighborhood to the west will be minimized by prohibiting ac cess to the residential street and by providing a landscape buffer to the adjacent single family home. Significant grading and tree removal will likely occur on the property in order to meet its intended multi -family use. The project will need to conform to Eagan Ordinance No. 217 2nd Series regarding tree preservation and mitigation. The Silverpi nes property could provide an area for tree mitigation, if needed. The project site lies within the MSP Noise Buffer Zone and multi -family is the preferred housing type.within this zone.

PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENT, FINAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AND FINAL PLAT — EAGAN HOSPITALITY GROUP, INC. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To approve (OR to direct preparation of findings for denial) a Planned Development Amendment to change the approved use from restaurants to hotel, upon approximately 3 acres located southwest of Lone Oak Road and Holiday Lane subject to the conditions in the APC minutes. To approve a Final Plat (Oakview Center 2nd Addition) combining two lots into a single parcel upon approximately 3 acres, located southwest of Lone Oak Road and Holiday Lane. To approve a Vacation drainage and utility easements for Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Oakview Center. REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: At least three votes. FACTS: The site is vacant and consists of two platted lots. ➢ The applicant is proposing a 4 -story 130 -room hotel. ➢ The site is located within the one -mile buffer area of the 60 dB contour, placing it within Airport Noise Policy Zone 4. Transient lodging is anticipated to be a provisional use within the Buffer Zone. As such, sound attenuation construction standards will apply. ➢ NB setback, lot coverage and dimensional standards are satisfied. ➢ With four stories the building height measures 50'8" to the mean roof height, and 58'8" at its highest point. This is comparable to the adjacent hotel to the west which measures 54'6" in height to the peak roof level. ➢ The building elevations have been corrected and will be brick and EIFS in a color scheme consistent with the approved Oakview Center materials. ➢ Parking is two stalls short of the required amount, and 9.5' wide stalls are proposed which is consistent with the Oakview Center PD. The public hearing for the Vacation of drainage and utility easements is scheduled earlier on this agenda. The vacation pertains to existing easements on the subject site, and new drainage and utility easements will be dedicated with the new plat. ➢ The Final Plat combines the two existing lots into a single parcel, and dedicates additional right-of-way for Lone Oak Road on the north side. The Final Plat dedicates new drainage and utility easements. 114 ➢ The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on March 28, 2006 and recommended approval of the PD Amendment and Final PD. ISSUES: ➢ The APC added conditions that a paved fire lane be provided on the north side of the building asrequired by the Fire Marshal, and that the development satisfy the minimum 30% green space. By providing the required 20' wide paved fire lane, green space on the site drops to about 25%. ➢ The applicant has been exploring ways to increase green space to compensate for the added pavement of the fire lane. They applicant reports that adding an island in the SE corner of the parking lot would gain about 800 sq. ft. of green space, and another 2,000 sq. ft. can be, gained by reducing parking stall width to 9.0'. Even with these changes, the site remains at about 27.5% green space. The latest information will be shared with the City Council on Tuesday night.

AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subdivision 5 states, in part, 1. The provisions of this chapter may be amended by the majority vote of the council, except that amendments changing the boundaries of any district or changing the regulations of any district may only be made by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the council. 2. The Council shall not rezone any land in any zoning district or make any other proposed amendment to this chapter without first having referred it to the planning commission for its consideration and recommendation. BACKGROUND/HISTORY Planning Report — Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 2 Oakview Center was platted in 1999 and the PreliminaryPlanned consists of 81ots.for the entire site The entire site was was approved at that time. The Oakview Center development graded and streets and utilities installed with the initial construction in 1999. Four of the lots have been developed — Holiday, McDonald's, a hotel and a retail strip center. The other four lots remain vacant. The two parcels that comprise the subject site are currently designated for Class I restaurants in the approved Preliminary Planned Development. EXISTING CONDITIONS The site -was previously graded and is vacant. There is no significant vegetation,on the site. SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and. comprehensive guide plan designations surround the subject property: A, Agriculture PD, Planned D A, Agriculture EVALUATION OF REQUEST Planned Land Use Designation SA/RC, Special Area/ Retail Commercial RC, Retail Commercial SA/RC, Special Area/ Retail Commercial RC.' Retail Commercial Compatibility with Surrounding Area — This site was considered a Neighborhood Business node when the Oakview Center development plan was proposed'in 1998. Under NB zoning, a hotel would not typically be allowed. Through the Planned Development zoning, specific uses were identified for all 8 lots in the development. One hotel was approved with the Preliminary Planned Development and was constructed on the adjacent property west of the subject site. The two parcels that comprise the subject site were designated for Class I restaurants. The proposed hotel use appears compatible with the surrounding uses. The single-family uses to the east and north are designated in the Comprehensive Plan to redevelop with retail commercial land uses, and such development is anticipated to be consistent with NB, Neighborhood . Business, zoning. There are no other residential uses in the area that may be sensitive to a hotel use in this location. A hotel was previously deemed*suitable for the adjacent property to the west. Other uses in the area include a Class H restaurant, convenience store, and multi -tenant retail building. Remaining vacant lots within Oakview Center are approved for professional office and a daycare. Airmort Noise Standards — The City of Eagan considered airport noise as a factor in its Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan.

Other uses in the area include a Class H restaurant, convenience store, and multi -tenant retail building. Remaining vacant lots within Oakview Center are approved for professional office and a daycare. Airmort Noise Standards — The City of Eagan considered airport noise as a factor in its Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan. The Metropolitan Council has adopted an Aviation Chapter Planning Report — Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 3 of its -Metropolitan Development Plan that anticipates the impacts from the continued operation of the airport at its current location. Based on the Metropolitan Council Policy Contours adopted in 1996, the site is located within the one -mile buffer area of the 60 dB contour, placing it within Noise Policy Zone 4. The Met Council has recently adopted new land use compatibility, guidelines, which incorporate the 2007 Noise Policy Contours. Under the new guidelines it is anticipated that transient lodging will be a provisional use within Zone 4. As such, it must comply with ceestructural r dig peso materials and rmance standards to be acceptable according to MS 473.192. In particular, materials construction should be such that they will insure an interior sound level of 50 dBA (provisional land use performance standards) as compared with a noise level of 64 DNL (based on tion of at the side boundary of the noise zone). This would require an inside noise level 4 dBA. Site Plan — The Site Plan shows a four-story 130 -unit hotel building on the northern portion n of the site, with parking on the south east and west sides of the building. The building's entrance faces south and has a drive -under canopy for check -ins and drop-offs. The trash enclosure is attached to the west side of the principal building. Access sisproposed ed driveway from Courthouse Lane to the across from Holiday Lane to the south, an with the existing hotel to the west. opment deviation from typical zoning bulk standards may Bulk Standards — As a Planned Devel be allowed. Setbacks — The building is situated in the center of the site. It is placed at the minimum required 50 -foot setback from Lone Oak Road, and �tA lines. Minimum Parking setbacks are proposed to be 20 feet from all public street fire lane is proposed along the north side of the building and is set back more than 20 feet from Lone Oak Road. These setbacks are consistent with ordinance requirements. Building Coverage — The proposed building coverage is 18%. This is consistent with typical commercial district zoning standards which allow 20% - 30% coverage. Building Height — The Zoning Code does.not establish a maximum height requirement for Planned Developments. The proposed four-story hotel, measures 50'8" to the mean roof height, and 588" at its highest point, as shown on the Exterior Elevations Plan. This amount is comparable to the adjacent hotel to the west which measures 54'6" in height to the peak roof level. Building heights that exceed the maximum requirements of the City Code (30'-35' in commercial zoning de P wed Development however, the) are normally handled as itional use proposed permits (CUP). Under the terms of th building height can be accommodated without a separate CUP process. Green Space — The site data indicates green space of 31.4%. Commercial development is typically required to provide a minimum of 30%. The applicant is proposing to construct the fire' lane along the north side of the building using grass pavers to satisfy green space requirements. Es Planning Report— Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 4 The pavers will support the weight of emergency vehicles if necessary, but allow turf grass to grow and do not create additional runoff. Parkin — City Code requires that parking be provided in the amount of one stall for each room plus one stall for each 8 rooms. This calculates to a minimum required parking amount of 146 stalls. The applicant is proposing 144 surface parking stalls. Parking stalls are proposed to be 9.5 feet wide by 19 feet deep; two-way driving aisles are proposed to be 24 feet wide. While stall width is less than the I 0 -foot hemPmcurrently l urinary Planned required by City Code, it exceeds the 9 -foot width that was approved m t Development and was utilized in the prior Oakview Center developments. In addition, the applicant's narrative states that the dedication of additional right -of --way to Dakota County for Lone Oak Road reduced the size of the site, making it more difficult to fully meet the parking standards. Landscaping — The Landscape Plan appears to be acceptable. A variety of deciduous, evergreen and ornamental trees are proposed, with shruand Shade trees are proposed on the north side of from the public rights-of-way appears acceptable. the building. Because of the water main in this area, the planshould be reviewed to ensure no large growth materials conflict with the water line and easement restricted along the south edgeofhe substitutions operiy due todbe the made if necessary. Planting is also restn g presence of a gas line easement. Staff has some concern with the use of shrubs in the parking lot islands. Shrubs are susceptible to damage from snow storage and thus can be difficult to maintain in an attractive and healthy condition. Staff suggests that more perennials be used in these areas because they are dormant in the winter and are not as affected by snow storage. The applicant should have the landscape architect review the plan to determine if a more suitable material can be used in the islands. Building Elevations/Architecture — The Preliminary Planned Development included four packages of building materials and color combinations for use within the Oakview Center development. The applicant is proposing to use synthetic stone and two colors of EIFS. This is not consistent with the architectural materials specified in the Preliminary Planned Development, which call for brick, decorative block, and EIFS. Synthetic stone is not anapproved building material in this Planned Development and the applicant also did not identify colors for the various materials. To be consistent with the Oakview Center architectural standards, the elevations should be revised to utilize brick and decorative block in place of the synthetic stone. The proposed building architecture is four-story 130 -unit hotel with a peaked roof line. The building design does provide variations in materials to create both horizontal and vertical elements. The long roof line is interrupted with 4 roof peaks on the front and two on the back. The plans show divided windows which add visual interest. Site Lighting — City Code requires that on-site lighting be provided as is necessary for security, safety and traffic circulation. Illumination shall be indirect and diffused or shielded. Lighting VL\ Planning Report — Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 5 shall not be directed upon public rights-of-way or adjacent properties and the source of light shall not be visible from off the property. The Preliminary Planned Development included a Site Lighting plan. The approved site lighting uses 400 watt metal halide pole -mounted fixtures for parking lot lighting. Site lighting is mounted lights with 400 watt metal halide flat lens shoebox proposed through free-standing pole- . type fixtures. These fixtures are to be mounted on 20' poles within the parking lot. The other Oakview Center buildings have used different fixtures, but are 400 watt metal halide and are shielded and downcast. Thus the proposed parking lot light fixture is consistent with the other buildings in this development, however, the proposed mounting height is lower at 20', the other parking lights are mounted at 25'. For consistency throughout the Planned Development, the pole -mounted fixtures should be mounted at 25. The photometric plan shows acceptable light levels. Light levels achieve a minimum of 0.5 footcandles within the parking lots, with a high of 11.2 footcandles and an average of 3.41 footcandles. Light levels at the property lines are 0.3 footcandles. The average to minimum ratio. is 3.4, suggesting fairly uniform light levels throughout the parking lot. Security lighting on the building utilizes 175 watt metal halide fixtures mounted on the exterior of the building, and recessed beneath the entrance canopy. Sinae —The Comfort Suites is proposing building signage above the main entrance. No monument sign is proposed. The Preliminary Planned Development agreement provided for individual lot monument signs. While this site is comprised of two lots, the developer proposes to combine them into a single parcel with one building. Thus, the City Code allows only one free-standing sign per building. Any monument sign must comply with the design criteria of the Preliminary Planned Development which is an internally illuminated sign panel on a brick base. The approved sign dimension for this site is a 5' high by 12'6" wide sign panel with a 3' high brick base. All free- standing signs must be set back a minimum of 10 feet from all property lines. The brick sign base was based on the brick materials for the principal building. If City officials determine that this building may utilize synthetic stone, then any monument sign should have a base constructed of the same materials used for the principal building. The Oakview Center Preliminary Planned Development also included approval of a shopping center pylon sign on the southeast corner of this site. The developer is proposing that the shopping center pylon sign envisioned in the Preliminary Planned Development be eliminated. Because the Preliminary Planned Development did not specify requirements for building signage, building signage is subject to compliance with City Sign Code requirements. Gradin/ Topog aphy — The site was graded with previous development in the area and is generally open and slopes to the south. The proposed building grade is about level. with the Planning Report — Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 5 elevation of adjacent Lone Oak Road. Landscape berms to help screen parking areas should be provided within the parking setback areas, where possible. Storm Drainage — Storm sewer drainage is available via existing stone sewer pipe and pond (Pond GP -11) to the southeast of the site. Utilities — Existing sanitary, sewer,and water main of sufficient size,aepth, and capacity axe available from Courthouse Lane for connection by thus development Streets/ Access/ Circulation — Street access is proposed at two locations, one as the of the site; h leg of the the Holiday Lane/ Courthouse Lane intersection, in the south-central portion other through a connection to the existing parking lot for the adjacent hotel lot to the west. A fire lane is required and has been provided on the north side o f t e h am Bred g. Wy overhead le the site is adjacent to a public street, emergency access to the building p utility lines. The developer is proposing to utilize grass pavers for this fire lane. The Fire Marshal has indicated that the grass pavers are not acceptable for emergency access because they are usually not cleared to afford emergency access during the winter months. The fire lane on the north side should be constructed of bituminous, asphalt with concrete curb and gutter. Pedestrian circulation in the area is provided by sidewalks and trails on Courthouse Lane and allows for pedestrian connections between the lots within Oakview Center. Easements/ Permits/ Right -of -Way — The developer should provide evidence of ingress/ ngr a s/o gr eess n a easement with the property to the west, allowing for the proposed serve form acceptable to the City Attorney. Wetlands/ . ater Quality — There are no jurisdictional wetlands on the site. Water quality requirements for this site were previously satisfied with the first phase of the Oakview Center development. Tree Preservation — This site is responsible for three Category B trees to fulfill its share of the tree mitigation obligation for Oakview Center. Parks and Recreation — This development is responsible for cash park and trail dedications due at the time of building permit at the rates then in effect. The 2006 rates are $5,790.00 per acre for parks and $1,251.00 per acre for trails. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Badger Midwest is proposing to amend the Preliminary Planned Development for Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Oakview Center by changing the approved use from two restaurants to one hotel. The proposed hotel is four -stories and 130 rooms. The use appears compatible with surrounding uses; however, the proposal includes some deviations from development standards in the Preliminary Planned Development and from typical commercial zoning standards. It is a policy {24 Planning Report = Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 7 matter for City officials to determine whether the proposed change in use is acceptable and whether to accept the proposed deviations as part of the Planned Development approval -- building height of 50'8"; use of different architectural materials than specified in the Preliminary Planned Development; 9.5parking stalls; and elimination of the center pylon sign. While this proposal amends the prior Preliminary Planned Development for this site, developer will Planned Development will be required prior to issuance of a building pe need to review and revise the final plans to be consistent with and to provide any additional 'information called for in the conditions of approval of this amendment.

REZONING PRELIMINARY PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AND PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION — REVESTORS ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To approve (OR to direct preparation of findings for denial) a Rezoning from NB to PD for a mixed commercial retail/office development upon approximately 9.82 acres located SE of Red Pine Lane and Hwy. 3. To approve (OR to direct preparation of findings for denial) a Preliminary Planned Development for a mixed commercial retail/office development, upon approximately 9.82 acres located SE of Red Pine Lane and Hwy. 3, subject to the conditions listed in the APC minutes. To approve (OR to direct preparation of findings for denial) a preliminary Subdivision to create two lots upon approximately 9.82 acres, with a Variance to allow a lot with <50' public street frontage, located SE of Red Pine Lane and Hwy. 3, subject to the conditions listed in the APC minutes. REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: At least three votes/majority of Councilrnembers present FACTS: ➢ The site is vacant and consists of two unplatted parcels and a remnant from the construction of Red Pine Lane. ➢ The site contains wooded areas and a wetland on the west edge; the site is separated from Hwy. 3 by railroad tracks. The existing building in the SW corner will be removed. ➢ Three buildings are proposed with a total of 78,406 sq. ft. Building A contains a bank with a drive-through, Building C contains the anchor tenant, a grocery store. ➢ Permitted uses in the NB district would be considered permitted and, save for the bank drive-thru and on -sale liquor in conjunction with a Class I restaurant requested at this time; any other conditional uses in NB zoning would require a PD Amendment. ➢ Primary access to the site is via Red Pine Lane, with a service drive from Gun Club Road. ➢ A portion of Gun Club Road is proposed to be vacated causing Lot 2 requiring a deviation for <50' frontage on a public street. ➢ Ponding is proposed in the SW comer of the site; rain gardens are proposed throughout the parking lot for conveyance and infiltration of runoff. ➢ De minimus wetland fill of —94 sq. ft. is proposed. ➢Building architecture is reflective of a railroad depot. Materials include limestone, brick, stone, glass and slate roofs. Building C, the southerly -most building, has two 142. architectural depot elements that exceed 30 feet in height; however, the predominant building height for each of the buildings is consistent with the 30' maximum height. ➢ A traffic study indicates that the proposed development will use the excess capacity of the signalized intersection of Red Pine Lane/Hwy. 3. As such, street improvements are conditioned as part of the approval to insure that the additional traffic will maintain an acceptable level of service. ➢ To accommodate ultimate development in the area, additional mitigative improvements to Hwy. 3/ Red Pine Lane may be necessary to maintain an acceptable level of service. The developer has petitioned a feasibility report to study roadway improvement needs. ➢ The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on March 28, 2006 and recommended approval of all action items. ISSUES: ➢ During the public hearing residents expressed concerns about traffic, safety, lighting, uses, pedestrian amenities, noise, and hours of operation.

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. Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 3 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. 4. Encouraging the preservation and enhancement of desirable site characteristics, natural features, and open space. Encouraging a development pattern that is consistent with land use density, transportation facilities and community facilities objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. BACKGROUNWHISTORY The site consists of two unplatted parcels and A, small remnant parcel from the construction of Red Pine Lane. The smaller of the two parcels contains a concrete block building- which was constructed in 1970. The larger of the two parcels is vacant. The property is currently zoned NB, Neighborhood Business and is designated in the Comprehensive Guide Plan for Retail Commercial land uses. Prior to 1994-95, the property was guided in the Comp Plan for residential uses. In 1980, the land use designation was R -II, Mixed Residential 3-6 units/acre. By 1988, the land use designation of the entire area east of Hwy. 3 and south of Cliff Road was changed to DJ, Single- family residential 0-3 units/acre. During the 1970s and 1980s, several industrial buildings were constructed in the adjacent Halley's Addition. Following a study of the area in 1994-95, the land use designation of the subject site and the adjacent Halley's Addition was changed to IND, Limited Industrial, creating consistency between the use, zoning and land use. In 1995, Red Pine Lane was constructed, leaving a remnant parcel of land south of the new street and east of the railroad right-of-way. In conjunction with the creation of this new intersection with Hwy. 3, the Gun Club Road intersection with Hwy. 3 was closed. With additional residential development in this part of the City, the City revisited the land use and zoning of the properties south of Red Pine Lane and east of Hwy. 3. In March 2002, following an area study in 2001, the City changed the land use designation and zoning of the properties west of Biscayne Avenue from IND, Limited Industrial, to RC, Retail Commercial. The property was rezoned from I-1, Limited Industrial, to NB, Neighborhood Business later in 2002. With the change in land use and zoning, existing uses became non -conforming. POTENTIAL REDEVELOPMENT/RENEWAL DISTRICT Under a Predevelopment Agreement between the Developers and the City, the parties are exploring the potential creation of a redevelopment or renewal district that could include the property being considered for development at this time. The investigation of that possibility is ongoing and, if a determination is made to proceed, that process will occur in parallel to the X51 Planning Report Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 4 development application review process. The purpose :of the analysis is to consider whether the City should work with the developers to implement a master plan for the area rte not oonformingin* the acquisition and redevelopment of some -of the properties in the area that with the current zoning and comprehensive plan for the area. The analysis has considered all of the properties bounded by Hwy 3, Red Pine Lane, Biscayne Avenue and Gun Club Road. A redevelopment or renewal district, if created, would likely involve a subset of the properties in that area. In anticipation of the prospective creation of the district, the developer is proposing the subdivision of a lot along the south side of the development. This lot would create a connection es, since such districts must be contiguous between the substandard and non -conforming properti and meet findings related to lot occupancy, lot coverage and the presence tu es foundtobe structures.. Site improvements that make up the lot coverage and the structures substandard are present in the southern portion of the site. While this requires a configuration for a lot line that passes through a building, that situation can be addressed through building code requirements associated with zero lot line development. Relationship of TIF Findin s to Subdivision — While development application review and subdivision may occur in advance of the creation of a district, construction may not occur with a district until after a district has been certified. Therefore, the two matters will be considered in parallel if it is concluded to move forward with such a district. EXISTING CONDITIONS The site consists of two unplatted parcels and a remnant parcel from the construction of Red Pine Lane. The larger parcel is vacant, the smaller parcel contains a concrete block building, and the remnant is located south of Red Pine Lane adjacent to the railroad. The ite is separated from wetland on the west Hwy..3 by railroad tracks. The site is open with some wooded areas edge of the property. SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the Existing Use North I Single Family Residential South West End Hunting and Fishin Club East Vacant/impound lot/ West .3 EVALUATION OF REQUEST R-1, Single Family Residential P, Park NB; Neighborhood Business 5 1.L Land Use Designation LD, Low Density Residential P, Park and Recreational Open Space RC, Retail Commercial Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 5 Description of Proposal - The applicant proposes to construct three commercial retail buildings totaling 78,406 sq. ft. on this site. The existing building on the southwest corner of the site is proposed to be removed. The primary access to the site is proposed from Red Pine Lane, and is designed to be shared with the adjacent parcel to the northeast (Lots 4 and 5, Halley's I" Addition). Access to the service area of the southerly building is proposed from Gun Club Road. Ultimately, a secondary access via Biscayne Avenue is anticipated. The development plan shows a "ghost plan" for future redevelopment of the three southerly parcels adjacent to the east. The retail development is expected to be anchored by a grocery store; other uses include restaurant, bank, and office. The future plan shows an additional 36,477 sq. ft. of potential office, retail, and a daycare use. Fully redeveloped, the square footage would be approximately 115,000 sq. ft. The proposed building architecture is reflective of a railroad depot. Ponding is proposed in the southwest corner of the site, and rain gardens are proposed throughout the parking lot both to convey water to the pond and to provide added infiltration and treatment for runoff. A petition to vacate the Gun Club Road right-of-way has been submitted. Assuming Gun Club Road is vacated, public street frontage for Lot 2 would be limited. A Variance is required for lot frontage on a public street of less than 50 feet. Access to Lot 2 would be provided from Red Pine Lane via easement over Lot 1. Access to Lot 2 would be available via the remaining Gun Club Road right-of-way. Compatibility with Surrounding Area — The proposal appears compatible with the existing land use designation and zoning. The land_use plan designation was changed to RC, Retail Commercial and the area rezoned to NB, Neighborhood Business, in 2002. Typically, a neighborhood commercial node serves a one -mile radius. Based on this standard, this area of Eagan has been underserved with regard to retail commercial service. The nearest retail commercial nodes to this site in Eagan are all approximately 2-3 miles away (Lexington Ave. and Diffley Rd.; Diffley. Rd, and Hwy. 3; Cliff Rd. and Thomas Lake Road). The RC, Retail Commercial, land use designation states that compatibility considerations vary with the type and scale of development. Specific considerations include the following: ➢ Neighborhood commercial development should be designed at a scale compatible with nearby residential uses. ➢ Sidewalks and trails should be provided to connect these smaller commercial developments to surrounding neighborhoods. ➢ Larger commercial development oriented toward community -wide regional markets requires greater buffering where adjacent to lower intensity use. Such developments should also include unifying design elements to achieve an overall- cohesive appearance. ➢ With regard to access, retail commercial uses tend to generate substantial amounts of customer traffic and require visibility and convenient access and therefore, should be located along arterial or collector roads. ➢ Physical suitability of the land varies with the type and scale of development, but generally flat open sites with few physical constraints are desired because retail commercial uses tend to have larger building footprints and high parking needs. 155 planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 6 Densi —The proposed development consists of three commercial buildings totaling 78,406 sq. ft. on 9.94 acres. This is made up of 69,653 sq. ft. of retail, 5,389 89 sq. ft. of office space, and a 3,364 sq. ft. bank. Future development on adjacent properties could include an additional 36,000 sq. ft. of office, retail and a daycare on 2.45 acres. Lots — The proposed subdivision consists, of two lots. Lot 2 consistshe lythe ion of the larger vacant parcel combined with the existing parcel in the southwest corner development site. Lot 1 is comprised of the balance of the vacant parcel in conjunction with the remnant south of Red Pine Lane. Proposed lot sizes are: Lot 1 = 6.86 acres (312,396 sq. ft.) Lot 2 =.1.89 acres.(115,157 sq. ft.) A Variance is required for Lot 2 with the vacation of Gun Club Road right-of-way. The ay would result in less than 50' of public street frontage for Lot 2. vacation of that right-of--w This Variance can be accommodated through the Planned Development zoning. Bulk Standards -.While the City Code, does not specify bulk seNzonin fordistriict requires D zoning the t, the NB standards are applicable for comparative purposes. The NB g following: Building Setbacks —Proposed development appears to satisfy these h few exceptions. The deviations that are proposed can be accommodated within the nned Development. Minimum building setbacks in the NB district are: Front yard = 30 feet from Red Pine Lane, Gun Club Road and railroad right-of-way Side yard =10 feet Rear yard = 20 feet With Buildings A and B on one lot, internal side yard setbacks do not apply. Building B is set back 30' from the railroad right-of-way on the west edge of the site (a front yard). Building A satisfies is set back 32' from the north property line adjacent to Red Pine Lane. Building C on the south end of the site is set back 10.5' from Gun Club Road. This is less than the 30' setback required from a public right-of-way, however, with the proposed vacation of the Gun Club Road right-of-way, the amount of setback required would be reduced from 30 feet to 20 feet (rear yard) and may increase the building setback from the south lot line if additional land is turned over to this site as a result of the vacation. With the creation of Lot 2 to meet the criteria for a renewal/TIF district, Building C will be set back only a few feet from the north lot line. Building C is designed for future expansion to the east, but will initially be constructed with a setback of approximately 25' from the east property line. Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 7 Building Coverage — While building coverage is typically calculated on a lot by lot basis, the lot configuration in this proposed subdivision are based on existing parcel boundaries and . designed in anticipation of establishing a renewal or redevelopment district. For this reason, individual lot coverage varies greatly. However, overall building coverage on the site is 18%, less than the maximum of 20% allowed in the NB zoning district. Green Space — As with building coverage, green space is typically calculated on a lot by lot basis. However, in this proposal green space is evaluated for the overall site development for the same reasons as building coverage. The development proposes an overall green space of 38%, an amount that satisfies the minimum standard of 30% required by the NB zoning district. Building Height — The NB zoning district allows a maximum building height of 30 feet. Building height is measured to the mean roof level of a pitched or hip roof, and to the highest point of a flat or mansard roof. Using this method of measurement, Building A has a height of 24.6'and Building B of 28.5'; both are consistent with the NB standards. Building C, an L-shaped building, is the largest of the three buildings. Building C also is the anchor building and as such, contains additional architectural elements reflective of its prominence in the development. The variations in roof lines also add visualinterest and define sections of the building. The majority of Building C meets the NB maximum of 30'. The flat roof portion measures 29'-10" to the top of the parapet, and the pitched roof section is 29.2' The anchor tenant space (a grocery store) is proposed to have an arched panel above the main entrance which extends to 38' In addition, the tower feature, which is a focal point of the development, projects to 46.75'. These two features add to the railroad depot architectural theme and exceed the typical 30 -foot height limit in the NB zoning district. Such deviations in building height can be accommodated within the Planned Development if determined to be appropriate by City officials. Trash Enclosures — The zoning ordinance requires trash enclosures to be provided where trash storage does not occur within the principal building. In commercial developments, such enclosures must be attached to the principal structure and be constructed of materials to match the principal structure with gates or doors having at least 90% opacity. Each of the three buildings has attached trash enclosures constructed of materials to match the principal building. Painted steel doors to the enclosures provide the required opacity. The developer should review the trash areas to ensure they are of sufficient size to accommodate both trash and recyclable materials containers for the anticipated tenants. Proposed Use — Retail uses for this development are not specified. The NB zoning district permits uses such as salons, copy centers, florists, gift shops, hobby shops, and off -sale liquor stores and such uses would be considered permitted here. Conditional uses in the NB zoning district include drive-through facilities,- veterinary clinics, daycare facilities, Class II restaurants and on -sale liquor. The proposed development shows one drive-through facility associated with 155 Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 8 the bank in Building A. The drive through can be accommodated through Planned Development approval in lieu of a conditional use permit. Three drive-through service lanes are proposed. The entrance to the drive-through service would be from the west end of the site. The drive- through lanes face south with vehicles exiting the drive-through to the south. Stacking for 5 vehicles must be provided for each of the drive-through lanes. The development shows patio areas off the west end of Building C, and the southeast end of Building B, as well as a plaza area on the east side of Building B. These areas suggest outdoor dining associated with restaurant tenants. Class I (sit-down, full-service) restaurants are- permitted repermitted uses in the NB zoning district; on -sale liquor service, associated with a Class I restaurant, can be accommodated through Planned Development approval in lieu of a conditional use permit. Specific users have not been identified as of yet, however, the applicant should note that a quick -service type restaurant (i.e. deli, coffee shops, sandwich shop) will require specific approval as those uses are considered Conditional Uses in the NB zoning district. As such, they warrant additional review and specific approval within the Planned Development in lieu of a conditional use permit. Grading/Topography-The site is generally open with drainage mainly to the south and west toward an existing wetland (portion of Pond LP -23 as designated in the City Storm Water Management Plan — 2005). The preliminary grading plan identifies, construction of retaining walls at the eastern property line. The developer should be responsible. for obtaining easement permission from the adjacent properties for the construction of these retaining walls, if necessary. Two service drives are proposed to be extended to the east for future connection by re- development along Biscayne Avenue. The final grading plan should be revised to match existing grades of the adjacent properties to the east to allow grades of 5% or less for the proposed future service drives to the east toward Halley's 1St Addition. The developer should be responsible for installing and maintaining erosion control measures in accordance with City engineering standards. All retaining walls should be located on private property, outside of public right-of-way, and maintained privately by property owners. Storm Water Drainage — The preliminary storm drainage plan is acceptable with modifications. Storm water runoff from the development will drain to a new storm water pond before discharging to the existing wetland (Pond LP -23) in the southwest comer of the development. The entire site lies within Drainage District L, and Pond LP -23 ultimately drains to Lebanon Hills Regional Park (LHRP). Overall post -development storm water runoff discharge rates are proposed not to exceed pre -development rates. The developer is proposing the installation of rain garden and small infiltration basins within the green space areas of the development to provide for additional storm runoff quality and quantity Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 9 control. The developer should submit evidence of private agreements between all properties in the subdivision providing for long-term maintenance of these rain garden and infiltration basin areas, prior to final subdivision approval, and in a form acceptable to the City Attorney and Public Works Department. An existing public storm sewer along the east and south edges of the property accommodates drainage from Biscayne Avenue and Gun Club Road. The developer should be responsible for providing a public storm drainage system within the development to accommodate this drainage, in accordance with City engineering standards. Utilities — The preliminary utility plan is acceptable. Public sanitary sewer of sufficient size, depth and capacity is available to the northwest from Red Pine Lane for connection and extension by development of this site. This development should extend public sanitary sewer. of sufficient size, depth, and capacity through the development to serve properties south and east, in accordance with the City Comprehensive Sewer Plan (2000). Water main of sufficient size and capacity is also available within Red Pine Lane to serve the site. All existing well and septic systems on the site should be abandoned in accordance with Dakota County and City standards as partof this development. Access/Circulation/Traffic Impacts — Access Public street access to the development is proposed in three locations: one onto Red Pine Lane, a service drive onto Gun Club Road, and one to Biscayne Avenue with ultimate development of the properties to the east (Phase II). Internal circulation is provided within the proposed development via private service drives, as shown on the preliminary site plan. Trip Generation/ Distribution — Phase 1 It is estimated that approximately 4,760 total vehicle trips per day (in/out — Source: Institute of Traffic Engineers 7`" Edition) will utilize the proposed Phase I development of the site, and detailed as follows: 23,870 SF Grocery Store 2,470..vehicle trips 5.400 SF Office 160 45,800 SF General Retail 1,800 3,400 SF Bank w/ drive -up windows 430 Total —Phase 1 4,760 It is also estimated that the following distribution of this daily traffic from Phase I will occur: 4,520 vehicle trips (95%) - to/from.west - Highway 3/ Red Pine Lane 145 vehicle trips (3%) — to/from east - Red Pine Lane 95 vehicle trips (2%) — to/ from south Biscayne Avenue 1151 Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 10 otal vehicle Trip Generationl Distribution — Phase II - It is estimated that tc Engineers a Edition roximaw 11 ut000 the proposed tely 2, trips per day (in/out —Source: instituof te Phase II development along Biscayne Avenueand detailed as follows 89000 SF Daycare 14,400 SF Office 27,000 SF General Retail Total —Phase Il 640 vehicle tri 160 2,000 It is also estimated that the following distribution of this daily traffic from Phase H will occur: 1,900 vehicle trips (95%) - to/from west - Highway 3/ Red'Pine Lane 60 vehicle trips (31/6) — to/from east - Red Pine Lane 40 vehicle trips (2%) — to/ from south — Biscayne Avenue Traffic Impact - A traffic impact study was completed by the developer and reviewed, by City staff analyzing the present and future operation of the Red Pine Lane/ Highway level of service n The Highway 3/ Red Pine Lane intersection currently operates at overall g th an esmatd 95% of the the peak hours with its current approach lane layout Highwnd ay significant additional demands traffic generated by the development originating from g Y will be placed on this intersection.

To accommodate this development, mitigative improvements to Red Pine Lane would be necessary to provide an acceptable level of service, including: A dedicated right turn lane on westbound Red Pine Lane (including additional right-of- way acquisition in the northeast comer of the intersection). This is a MNDOT- recommended improvement An extended left turn lane on westbound Red Pine Lane (for stacking to the proposed access, additional right-of-way acquisition from adjacent property in Halley's Addition) An eastbound right turn lane along the entire development adjacent to Red Pine Lane. Signal revisions Railroad crossing signal revisions along south side of Red Pine Lane (w/ 8 -foot Relocation of 8 -foot pedestrian trail boulevard) E A* Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 11 The developer should be responsible for all necessary roadway and signal mitigative improvements on Red Pine Lane and at the Red Pine Lane/ Highway 3 intersection listed above. The developer should also be responsible for the dedication and acquisition of all necessary right- of-way, and public easements to construct these mitigative improvements. Also, to provide additional distance from the development entrance to Highway 3 to improve vehicle circulation on Red Pine Lane, the entrance should be located as far east on the property as possible. These 'improvements will require the acquisition and dedication of additional right-of-way from the development and other properties. The preliminary plat ' and site plan submitted with the application does not reflect the dedication of right-of-way for the additional roadway width, needed for these Red Pine Lane improvements. To accommodate ultimate development in the area, additional mitigative improvements to Highway 3/. Red ' Pine Lane would be necessary to provide an acceptable level of service, including: • A dual left turn lane on southbound Highway 3 • Signal revisions to accommodate the dual left tum • Railroad crossing signal revisions to accommodate the dual left turn These improvements would be the responsibility of the City and MNDOT. Gun Club Road, along the southeast edge of the site, is currently a rural section gravel road. The use of Gun Club Road by this development will require the upgrade of the roadway to City street standards with bituminous paving, concrete curb & gutter, and storm sewer. Also, with future adjacent development, a cul-de-sac bubble will be required at the west end of Gun Club Road near the southeast corner of this development site. The developer should be responsible for the upgrade of Gun Club Road, from Biscayne Avenue to. the southeast corner of the development. The developer should also be responsible for the dedication of public right-of-way to accommodate the one-quarter of the future cul -de -.sac within the development at the proposed west end of Gun Club Road. Easements/Permits/Ri t -of -Way — The developer should be responsible for obtaining private ingress/ egress easement from Lots 4. and 5, Block 1. Halley's First Addition to cover the access drive over those properties to align with Red Poll Court. The developer should provide private ingress/ egress easements to the adjacent properties within the Phase II development area along Biscayne Avenue to allow for future access/ circulation between the developments. This development should dedicate all right-of-way necessary to construct the required improvements to Red Pine Lane. Financial Obli ag tion — At this time, there are no pending assessments on the parcel proposed for platting. It5R planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 12 . Based upon a study by City staff of the financial obligations collected in the past at d proposed of final use for the property, the total estimated charges of $139,807.00 will be collected subdivision or connection to the City, s utility system based on the table below. The final charges will be computed using the rates in effect at time of connection or subdivision. 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.

Y the parcel is an approximate 12 -acre wetland, "Gun Club Marsh" (City Pond LP -23). This is a state public water wetland (DNR#19-0309W) that drains toward Marsh Lake (DNR#19-0308W) in LHRP. The developer proposes to address City stormwater quality requirements via two constructed ponds, which would pre -treat runoff before it drains to dress runoff andratthe dto City Pond LP -23. A series of infiltration basins also is proposed to help a Wetlands —The wetland delineation report for the project site (Peterson Environmental Consulting, Inc.; Project No. 2004-058) identifies one wetland that is subject to theCity's jurisdiction, drain, fill, or according to the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act (WCA). Any proposals to excavate this wetland need to meet all provisions of WCA laws and rules. eet Originally proposing 7,650 square feet of wetland fill impacts requiring at least 15,300 asquu cts. Mlar�eRules of wetland replacement, the developer now proposes only 94 square feet of fill p Ch. 8420.0122 Subp. 9 allow a maximum of 400 square feet of fill in this type of wetland without replacement under a so-called "de minimus" exemption. The applicant recently submitted an application for such exemption. The City must formally approve this exemption. Tree Preservation — A tree inventory submitted with this application indicates that there are six (6) significant trees and 34,056 square feet of significant woodlands located on this site. Most of the individual trees and significant woodlands are located along the west side of the property. Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 13 Individual tree size and species break down is as follows: one 6" oak tree, one 12" black cherry tree, one 12" and one 14" elm tree, and one 16 and one 20" poplar (cottonwood) tree. The significant woodlands are comprised mostly of softwood deciduous trees, (elm, cottonwood, and willow trees) in the three to twelve inch diameter range. The majority of these woodland trees. are located within seventy (70) feet of the existing wetland in the southwest portion of the site. The development as proposed will result in the removal of a total of five (5) significant trees (83% of the total); and 25,080 square feet of significant woodlands (74% of the total). According to the City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance allowable tree/woodland removal for this development is set at 40%. Required tree removal mitigation for this application calculates to sixty-five (65) Category B trees (or an equivalent combination of Category A and/or Category C trees. The applicant has submitted a Tree Mitigation Plan that indicates the fulfillment of required tree mitigation through the installation of thirteen (13) Category A trees and forty (40) Category B trees, for an equivalent amount of sixty-six (66) trees. Staff has concerns about the feasibility of preserving significant woodlands along the east side of existing wetland, as indicated on the Tree Mitigation Plan, because proposed parking areas, buildings, and/or hard surface pedestrian areas are located literally within 1 foot of tree preservation areas. According to the City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance, required tree protection measures (i.e. tree protection fencing) are required to be placed at the drip line or at the perimeter of the critical root zone (CRZ), whichever is greater, of significant woodlands to be preserved. Neither the submitted Tree Mitigation Plan, nor the Grading Plan, indicates the required placement of tree protection measures. Throughout several previous meetings with the applicant staff has provided the following recommendations to the applicant: a. Provide for additional preservation. of significant woodlands located within 30-50 feet of existing wetlands. b. Revise the Tree Mitigation/Landscape Plan to provide for appropriate spacing of mitigation trees (located south of the proposed storm pond, in the extreme southwest portion of the site). To date staff has not seen any of these recommendations included on a revised development proposal. The applicant has also been instructed that they will be required to demonstrate which "practical difficulties or practical hardships" should grant them the ability to' an exception to City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance allowable tree removal limits. To date staff has not seen this type of narrative on a revised development proposal. Landscaping — The City landscape ordinance'requires that tree mitigation be provided in addition to required landscaping. Consequently, the Landscape Plan should stand alone and satisfy the Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 14 landscape ordinance standards, absent any mitigation plantings. While the applicant submitted a Mitigation Plan separate from the overall Landscape Plan, a Landscape -only Plan was not submitted, making evaluation of this requirement more difficult. It appears that the bulk of the shade trees on the site are designated as mitigation trees, placement in parking lot islands and along the perimeter of the site. As such, it appears that some of the mitigation is provided in place of required landscaping (e.g. trees in parking islands or where screening is required). A separate Landscape -only Plan should be submitted prior to Final PD and Final Subdivision approval. The proposed Landscape Plan may need to be revised to redesignate some of the mitigation trees as landscape trees. With the amount of site area covered by wetland and ponding areas, the combined Landscape and Tree Mitigation plan appears to result in a fully planted site. Thus, such revisions to the Landscape Plan may affect the mitigation plan as the site may not then accommodate as many mitigation trees as the current plan proposes. Therefore, the tree mitigation plan should be revised accordingly and the revised plan submitted to the City prior to final subdivision approval. The landscape plan proposes -a variety of trees, shrubs and perennials. The plan includes landscape features at the entrance and at the center pylon sign. The parking is located internally, with buildings situated at the perimeter of the site. Thus, most screening of parking areas from the right-of-way is accomplished through building placement rather than landscaping. Additional landscape features include rain gardens (which also provide storm water management), and a "wood trellis with brick columns and limestone wall" creating a visual focal point within the development. Parking islands have either shade trees (maple, hawthorn, linden) or ornamental trees (serviceberry). A few evergreens in parking islands should be changed to shade trees. Evergreen trees are subject to greater damage from snow storage, may interfere with vehicle doors and can obstruct visibility necessary for security and safety within a parking lot. Shade trees and ornamental trees provide shade to cool the pavement in the summer months, and branches extending overhead allowing for snow storage within the islands in the winter months, provide visibility through the lot providing for better .security and safety. River birch are utilized around the rain gardens and wetland area within the site. A variety of perennials including daylilies, sedum, hosta and varieties of grasses are proposed in addition to shrubs such as chokeberry, dogwood, honeysuckle, hydrangea, juniper, and spirea. Perennials are a suitable choice for locations that are subject to winter snow storage, and provide added color and interest year around. The plans make little use of evergreen shrubs, although evergreen trees are utilized in various locations. Additional evergreen materials should be incorporated to provide more year round color. Along the south side of Building B, the pine trees may soften the appearance of the. building wall as viewed across the wetland, however, staff is concerned that these trees are not well suited to the growing conditions in that location and will be crowded against the building. Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 15 Additionally, the Final Landscape Plan should be signed by the landscape architect or certified nurseryperson who prepared it. Parks and Recreation — This development is responsible for cash parks and trails dedications payable at the time of building permit at the rates then in effect. The 2006 rates are $5,790 per acre for parks and $1,251 per acre for trails. Building Architecture/Elevations — Building architecture is reminiscent of a railroad depot. Building materials include a limestone, brick, stone and glass. The roof material is slate. Details include -wood trussed entry gables, copper flashing and wood soffit brackets. The double pitched mansard roofs are architecturally consistent with this theme and provide screening for rooftop mechanical equipment. Because of their visibility, Buildings A and B carry architectural elements around all sides of the building. Building C focuses architectural elements on the front facade. The south elevation of Building C is not as visible or prominent as that of Buildings A and B. While it utilizes the same brick material, the rear elevation of Building C lacks the architectural features that are found .on the front and sides of that building. Si na e — City Sign Code allows two building signs on two elevations for tenants in multi -tenant buildings. One additional sign is allowed for end tenant spaces: The applicant submitted a separate document outlining the signage guidelines, along with graphic exhibits defining the sign panels on each building elevation. Individual tenant building signage is proposed on the north and south elevations of Building A, the north, east and west elevations of Building B, and the north and west elevations of Building C. The anchor tenant in. Building C has a 5'0" high sign area above the main entrance, with two smaller sign panels on either side of the main entrance. Building A also has two 4'0" sign panels on the north and south elevations at the east end of the. building. The remaining building sign areas are 2'6" in height. The proposed areas on the buildings for tenant signage appear to be consistent with the Sign Code. The number of signs for each tenant space, including the anchor tenant in Building C, should also comply with Sign Code requirements and will be reviewed, as part of the sign, permit application prior to installation for each tenant. The applicant has indicated that building signage will be limited to channel letters and "high- tech, long lasting LED light sources instead of neon." Building signs are proposed to be backlit, and only LED lighting permitted, no neon and no flashing lights. The maximum letter height is proposed to be 30"and signs are to be located directly above entrance doors. A four-sided pylon sign is proposed'at the NW corner of site. The pylon "incorporates the materials and design aesthetics of the rest of the development setting the tone for the mixed use center beyond. It consists of brick support columns with a limestone base to match the materials used on the buildings and has a pitched roof to match the buildings. The pylon identifies the center name, and includes an internally lit cabinet system on three sides,of.the 1403 Planning Report - Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 16 identification sign (pylon), divided into equal height panels for lease by individual tenants. The Sign Code limits the sign area to 125 sq. ft. on each side. he A monument sign is also proposed at each entrance into the site identifying mo the monuments ot ter eT ed monument signs are also constructed of brick and limestone. seven feet in height, and the message area cannot be more than four feet in height. p k —Number of Stalls — The parking areas are designed to be shared Staff's theparthree ing buildings with easements across the lots for shared use and uirement of 264 stalls. The applicant calculations differ from the applicant's. A total parking q shows a'required 302 stalls. Within the PD zoning and o tade for the dilfferent usest is lgned for within all shared parking, the staff evaluation combined the squareg three buildings, separating the uses for office, retail and bank. Staff s calculations result in a total of 264 parking stalls required for the propose d evestalment for The breakdown is as follows: 26 7 stalls fore are o ated tai as follows:I spa, 13 stalls for the , office space. By building, the 24 stalls Building A = 42 stalls Building B = 48 stalls Building C = 174 stalls According to the site plan, a total of 302 parking stalls are proviideed oconsider sults in s fining the age of parking. With anexcess number of stalls, the developer should parking stalls to meet dimensional standards (see discussion below). Parkin — Dimensional Standards — City Code requires parking stall dimensions of theparking sta is 19' deep. Most of the parking stalls meet these dimensional standards; size are proposed to be 9.5' x 19' and do not meet minimum forrequirements. parking stall and aislestis a were from City Code standards. The dimensional requirements added to the City Code in 2000. Prior to that, a 10 -foot wide sandard was d feet were allowed lied in igow turnover areas, such as retail parking lots, and stalls as narrow turnover parking lots, such as employee parking at a warehouse or office building. The acceptability of the proposed 9.5' wide parking stalls is r policyostalls, er to e developer ined should y City officials. Since the site apparently has an excess num parking consider redesigning the stalls to meet dimensional standards. required parking stall depth of 19 feet and two-way drive aisle width of 24 feet are satisfied. The q p Site Li�htin Plan — Site lighting is proposed to be accomplished through free-standing pole- g mounted lighting mounted lighting. Some buildinxtures aaroep l 75 watts and the decorative decorative fixtures fixtures standard fixtures are proposed. The are 320 watts; both are metal halide. I �4 Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 17 The decorative fixtures are proposed to be both pole -mounted and building mounted using a decorative "shepherd's crook" support. The pole -mounted decorative fixtures are proposed at a 20' mounting height along the main entrance into the site, and at a 12' mounting height along pedestrian pathways and other pedestrian oriented areas. The same fixture is proposed to be building mounted along the front of Building C and all around Building B. The standard fixture is proposed to be pole mounted at a 24' height with botsame gle andfixtured twin head design throughout the parking lots. A building mounted version of the s is proposed to illuminate the service area on the east side of Building C. Typically, minimum light levels of 0.5 foot-candles are acceptable within parking lots, and maximum light levels of not more than 1 standards ds with the exandle are tableat the ception of the west corner of photometric plan appears to satisfy thesea Building A where light levels drop below 0.5 foot-candles. The Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (2003) manual suggests an average -to - minimum uniformity ratio not greater than 4:1. The average -to -minimum ratio in parking lots A and C are greater than the recommended 4:1 ratio. This suggests greater light variation throughout the lot. The site lighting plan should be reviewed and calculations clarified or lighting modified -to better achieve the IESNA recommended standards. The developer also should have the lighting engineer and landscape architect review the Site Lighting Plan in conjunction with the Overall Planting Plan to ensure that the selection of plant materials does not interfere with effective site fighting. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Revestors is requesting approval of a Rezoning from NB, Neighborhood Business to PD, Planned Development, a Preliminary Planned Development to create a mixed office/retail commercial development, and a Preliminary Subdivision to create three lots upon 9.82 acres located southeast of Red Pine Lane and Hwy. 3. The proposed development consists of three commercial retail buildings totaling 78,406 sq. ft. The existing building on the southwest corner of the site is proposed to be removed. The primary access to the site is proposed from Red Pine Lane, and is designed to be shared with the adjacent parcel to the northeast. The development plan shows a "ghost plan" for future redevelopment of the three southerly parcels adjacent to the east with a potential 36,447 sq. ft. of similar uses. Ultimately, a secondary access via Biscayne Avenue is anticipated. The retail development is expected to be anchored by a grocery store; other uses include restaurant, bank, and office. Ponding is proposed in the southwest comer ona andito, ov d add d infins ltration and te proposed reatinentut the parking lot both to convey water to the p P for runoff.

The project when completed will include store, opporestatunities to, bankhe under -served rce and, es dents businesses that will provide much needed retail and service opportunities t within this part of Eagan as well as portions of adjacent communities. In addition, Red Pine Crossing transforms the under-utilized and substandard properties into a productive addition to he City of Eagan. Red Pine Crossing is planned as a two-phase project with the first phase currently beinged ubmi ted as a Planned Development. However, the entire redevelopment area has been master planned J with significant city input to determine the best use for the complete district in regards to land use and utilities, as well as vehicle and pedestrian circulation. Phase I consistsof three very pscale buildings ace including a totaling approximately 78,000 gross square feet of mostly retail, bank and r space mid-size anchor tenant at the south side of the site. The endmixof Buildingd use natures C. Phase IIawil further enhnceladdhan addition of a second story office area over the retail p additional 45,000 gross square feet of retail, office and daycare businesses. ive Plan Guided as RC — Retail Commercial and zoned as NB The entire site is currently Comprehens consistent with the uses for the site. The current zoning Neighborhood Business which are both is also appropriate for this property given the good access and vipsibility off of Highway 3 and n an ing appropriate supporting land use to he adjacent Rl - residential developments. Of the zone creounw ed for Red includes to the east a.small strip of four lots of Industrial use and he Public Pine Elementary, and finally to the south is the Park zone that encompasses the West End Hunting and Fishing Club. Aesthetically, Red Pine Crossing harks back to the railroad s early 1900's using any depots and terminals as visual precedent for the images detailing f the enter. In their depots and stations were vital centers of -activity within a community, both socially and economically. Red Pine Crossing is envisioned as just such a place- in the fabric of this modern day community. To reinforce this vitality, pedestrian paths were developed connecting all adjacent neighborhoods to each part of the site and to the central plaza. The railroad depot image is developed using a palette of durable, high quality materials including a strong limestone base in a random ashlar pattern, brick and tstone ho columns Add Tonal d tail is wadded supporting the many slate roofs, and finishes with beck S g with wood trussed entry gables, copper flashing, and wood soffit brackets that were so commonly found supporting the deep overhangs of depots from this era. The slate covered double,pitched mansard roofs provide visual variety for each building again recalling the depot materialsnand d sisame n e�ementf function t to fully screen the rooftop mechanical units. While these familiar EAPROJECTS\0501MITY REVIEW (SITE, CUP)\PROJECTNARRATIVE.DOC RECE14-0 MAR .g 3 J/ TVA throughout the buildings, at the same time the facades are varied in design to breakup each building into smaller sections — each with their own visual identity. In addition the massing of the buildings gradually progresses from the northwest corner of the site starting with the lower bank canopy and smaller scale of building A. It builds slightly within the staggered form of Building B along Highway 3. Finally the volumes rise to the focal points of Building C with its two story tower at center of the site and the arched bow of the anchor tenant's entry. Due to the high visibility of all sides of buildings A and B, the detail level developed on the fronts of the buildings is carried around all sides. These buildings even include windows on the backs- of each tenant space, a rare feature in retail design. The buildings are positioned around the perimeter of the development providing the opportunity to create a central landscape that balances the needs of pedestrians and vehicles while still leaving significant room for gardens, public plazas, and a recirculating water feature. Central to the site is a series of rain gardens that are filled with perennial flowers and ornamental grasses. Special attention was given to the placement of these landscape features to visually divide the parking lot and create attractive pedestrian connections. The landscaping of the property is further articulated with the inclusion of over 150 trees and nearly 400 shrubs carefully distributed around the site to provide interest, to highlight landforms, as well as to function as screens each .relative to the needs of a particular area. Finally, the site will be accented with decorative trellises, limestone seatwalls, a recirculating. boulder stream, and railroad themed artifacts carefully distributed around the site and adjacent to pedestrian paths. As appropriate for a masterplan of this size, the traffic circulation to and within the site was studied to create appropriate circulation systems for the quantity of vehicles inherent to land zoned for commercial development; The project circulation included review and recommendations by a private ;traffic engineer, Wenck, as well as the city engineering department. While vehicle trips will understandably increase with this development when compared to vacant and minimally used land, the propertylas been guided for retail commercial development by the City of Eagan for a long time and public transportation routes anticipate that load. As noted in the traffic study, 95% of the trips return directly to the signal controlled intersection of Highway 3 and Red Pine Lane minimizing impact on the nearby neighborhood streets. In addition the traffic study showed that all existing public roadways will be within standard acceptable ranges for levels of service (LOS) at peak hours and recommends the addition of a 100 foot right turn lane eastbound on Red Pine Lane turning into the main entry of the development which we have added to the project. Special care was focused on the design of Red Pine Crossing to minimize the impacts of the development to the ecosystem. First; the rain gardens previously mentioned act as environmentally friendly sustainable areas to collect the waters of a typical small rain, allow them to infiltrate into the ground, and be cleaned in the process. This approach significantly reduces the rainwater runoff that leaves the site, a benefit to the entire stormwater district. Even during a heavy rain, the rain gardens provide infiltration into the soil while creating an overflow process stepping from one rain garden to the next progressing down the site contours until the rainwater enters the N JRP pond created at the southwest corner of the property. Further, the project strives. to maintain its environmentally sustainable approach by carefully redesigning the buildings and vehicle circulation plans, pushing them away from the existing wetland fully maintaining this wetland without disturbance. The parking stalls widths were also reduce by 6" to help allow for the wetland avoidance. The project also provides buffer space around E:IPROJECTS\0301MCITY REVIEW (SITE. CUP)\PROJECT NARRATIVE -DOC the wetland ranging from a minimum of 10 feet to well over the 30 foot preferred buffer dimension. At all locations where the buffer is less than 30 foot, the area developed is graded away from the wetlands in order to not allow untreated stormwater from directly entering the pond. To further accentuate the level of quality developed within the site and buildings, the exterior signage guidelines were carefully crafted to specify consistent tenant sign placement and appropriate signage sizing. The guidelines also mandate top of the line individual channel letters and high-tech, long lasting LED light sources instead of neon. The signage approach culminates with the main project identification sign which incorporates the materials and design aesthetics of the rest of the development setting the tone for the mixed use center beyond. All three building of Phase I of Red Pine Crossing are scheduled for a start in spring, 2006, and be ready for tenant interior construction late in 2006. The first tenant openings would be anticipated around the second quarter of 2007. Phase II is anticipated to be incorporated into this Planned Development by an amendment process after the remaining parcels are acquired. Currently this phase is anticipated to begin in the first half of 2007, roughly following the opening of the Phase I buildings. .Red Pine Crossing is well suited for the Planned Development approach since it provides a very high level of building and site detail. The benefits include the project's mixed-use nature, low impact stormwater system, wetland preservation, extensive landscaping, and top quality, exterior image and finishes all within an area of the city targeted for revitalization. In summary, the developers are excited to be able to propose Red Pine Crossing as a quality and productive mixed-use development within the fabric of the City of Eagan, a vital and enjoyable community in which to live and work. We believe this project can enhance this gateway to the city both visually and through the products and services that will be available to the people of this section of the city.

AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW City Code Chapter 11, Section 1!. 50, Subdivisions 4C and 4D provide the following. Subdivision 4C states that the Planning Commission shall recommend a conditional use permit and the Council shall issue such conditional use permits only if it finds that such use at the proposed location: 1. Will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, or general welfare of the neighborhood or the City. 2. Will be harmonious with the general and applicable specific objectives, of the Comprehensive Plan and City Code provisions. 3. Will be designed, constructed, operated and maintained so as to be compatible in appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and will not change the essential character of that area, nor substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. 4. Will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services, including streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water and sewer systems zol and schools. 5. Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be hazardous or detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare because of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors. 6. Will have vehicular ingress and egress to the property which does not create traffic congestion,or interfere with traffic on surrounding public streets. 7. * Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of major importance. Subdivision 4D, Conditions, states that in reviewing applications of conditional use permits, the Planning Commission and the Council may attach whatever ciated with these uses, tions they deem to protect the value necessary to mitigate anticipated adverse impacts as of other property within the district, and to achieve the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. In all cases in which conditional uses are granted, the Council shall require such evidence and guarantees as it may deem necessary as proof that the conditions stipulated in connection therewith are being and will be complied with. The City Code allows for a pylon no greater than 27' in height and no larger than 125 square feet in area per side with approval of a Conditional Use Permit. BACKGROUND/HISTORY The Eagan Central Park development was platted in 2003. ,The existing monument sign was permitted and constructed in 2003. EXISTING CONDITIONS The Eagan Central Park entrance located at the intersection of Pilot Knob Road and Central Parkway,. features a curved wrought iron fence supported by five brick pillars on the northwest corner of the intersection. A "Lone Oak" tree adorns the fence to welcome guests to the entrance of the site. There is an existing 6'-3" non -illuminated monument sign located approximately 200' north of the intersection. 202 SURROUNDING USES The site has research and development uses to the north and south, and town home and multiple residential uses to the east and west. EVALUATION OF REQUEST The applicant is proposing the pylon be placed in the same location as the existing monument sign, perpendicular to Pilot Knob Road, to afford easy viewing by both north and south -bound traffic. According to the applicant, the existing monument sign does not allow for promotion of events and programs at the Community Center. The, applicant states that events continue to increase in popularity and number, and are scheduled on a daily basis throughout the year. Many events are paid, private reservations, while others are public functions. To make possible the ability to post related announcements concerning the events and programs at a highly visible location via LED message board would add efficiency to the operation of the Community Center, provide a convenience for patrons and residents and reduce the placement of off -premise signs along .the streets. BULK STANDARDS/DESIGN all City Code bulk standards for spacing, size; setbacks and height. The proposed sign meets The applicant is proposing a double-faced pylon, 10' in height, 108:5 square feet in area and setback a minimum of 10' from all property lines in keeping with City Code requirements. The main (upper) portion of the sign would measure 59.5 square feet in area. The main portion of the sign would be internally -lit and contain the new City of Eagan logo placed alongside text indicating the "Eagan Community Center Central Park" location. The lower portion of the sign would contain an LED message board measuring 49 square feet in area, which would be subordinate to the main portion of the sign. The three -line LED message board would be contained within analuminum cabinet, and would provide three -lines of 9" text in a red -color to allow for easy -to -read nighttime viewing. The LED text would be changed by City staff via a modem connection, and the applicant proposes text changes twice per day to allow for display of messages pertaining to both daytime and evening events. A masonry brick would be used for the construction of the 2 -foot high sign base, and would be enhanced with a modular block planter surrounding the bottom of the sign. The plantings will be consistent with other plant varieties ' sed throughout the park site; and will visually support the vertical surfaces of the sign. zoz> SUMMARY/CONCLUSION The applicant is proposing a 10' high, 108.50 square foot pylon sign with an LED message center to allow for announcement of events and programs at the Eagan Community Center. The proposal appears to satisfy bulk standards for pylon signs in the Sign Ordinance. The proposed sign also appears compatible at the proposed location, specifically, and this area of the City, generally. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Conditional Use Permit for a 10' tall and 109 square foot pylon sign on property located at 1501 Central Parkway, (Lot 1 Block 1 Eagan Central Park) in the SE '/4 of Section 9. If approved, the following conditions should apply: 1. This Conditional Use Permit shall be recorded at Dakota County within 60 days of approval by the City Council. 2. An administrative Sign Permit shall be obtained from the City prior to.installation of the pylon sign. 3. The existing monument sign shall be removed prior to installation of the pylon sign. 4. The pylon sign shall be placed at the current monument sign location, approximately 220' north of Central Parkway; as;indicated on the site plan with a modification date of July 12, 2005. 5. The pylon sign shall be setback a minimum of 10' from all property lines. 6. The pylon sign shall not exceed 10' in height or 109 square feet in area. 7.

Drawn By:_SS Dole: 5/24/02 Scale; !S NOTED Rev: Rev: Rev: X, SIGN ABOVE FO FINAL APPROVAI P�o 1.1 EXISTING MONUMENT SIGN 0 CENTRAL PARK READER BOARD CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NARRATIVE The City of Eagan is proposing the installation of a 10' x 14' pylon sign with a two sided electronic reader board. Said sign is to be located on City owned property addressed as 1501 Central Parkway. The City property is bounded on the east by Pilot Knob Road. The proposed sign would replace the existing two sided monument sign and be positioned perpendicular to Pilot Knob Road so as to be visible by north and south bound Pilot Knob traffic. Due to the 10' height of the sign, it is necessary to request a Conditional Use Permit. The proposed sign will replace the existing, static, monument sign that identifies the property as Central Park. The proposed sign would be a multi -panel design that would continue to identify the property as Central Park but also allow for the promotion of events and programs scheduled at the near by Eagan Community Center, also located within Central Park, via a two side electronic reader board. Events and programs at the Community Center continue to increase in popularity and number and are now scheduled on a daily basis throughout the year. Many are paid, private reservations, while others are public functions. Having the ability to make xelated announcements at a highly visible location would add efficiency to the operation be a convenience for patrons and residents. The reader board would contain three horizontal text lines of 9" characters and be controlled by City staff via a modem connection. The cabinet will be steel clad with an aluminum facing into which the letters and City logo have been cut. The sign will be internally lit thereby reducing the potential for glare that may hinder passing drivers. A modular block planter will surround the bottom of the sign. The plantings will be consistent with others located on the site and aid in visually "grounding" the vertical surfaces of the sign. Because the new sign will be located in essentially the seine location as the existing sign, minimal disturbance of the site will be necessary. *% II'l h1 A.D D ATI\/G L AGENDA CITY OF EAGAN REGULAR MEETING OF THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY EAGAN MUNICIPAL CENTER APRIL 4, 2006 A.

SOUTHEAST EAGAN — RECEIVE SUBSTANDARD CONDITION REPORT AND REQUEST FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE CREATION, OF RENEWAL AND RENOVATION TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT FOR A PORTION OF THE AREA BOUNDED BY HWY 3, RED PINE LANE, BISCAYNE AVENUE AND GUN CLUB ROAD IN SOUTHEAST EAGAN AND REQUEST THAT THE CITY COUNCIL CALL FOR A PUBLIC HEARING ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To receive the substandard condition report and request from Revestors Realty for consideration of the creation of Renewal and Renovation Tax Increment Financing District for a portion of the area bounded by Hwy 3, Red Pine Lane, Biscayne Avenue and Gun Club Road in southeast Eagan and request that the City Council call for a public hearing, FACTS: • The City entered into a predevelopment agreement with Revestors and Manley Development to study the possibility of creating a redevelopment district in the southeast area of Eagan at the southeast corner of Hwy 3 and Red Pine Lane. The purpose of the agreement was to encourage the developers to identify a masterplan approach to the property and to review the 'substandard conditions and financial assumptions associated with the potential creation of a redevelopment district to encourage the development of the property and the redevelopment of parcels that are non -conforming, with the current guide and zoning designations for the area. • The parties have worked together to prepare the necessary plans and analysis and it has been determined through a Substandard Conditions Study by LHB Associates that the area could qualify as a Renewal and Renovation District under the TIF statute, if the EDA and City Council make appropriate findings to that effect. • Manley Development owns a portion of the site that would lie outside of the . Renovation and Renewal District, but Revestors owns a portion of the property that meets the substandard qualifications and, as a part of its development proposal for the former Oberg property, the company has prepared a prospective masterplan for the development of the remainder of the site described to illustrate how the currently proposed portion of the Red Pine development could extend by phases into the remainder -of the prospective District. • Revestors has submitted a request for the City to consider creation of a Renovation and Renewal TIF District and to consider the use of proceeds for such a district to assist with extraordinary costs associated with the prospective 215 development and redevelopment. In order to consider such an action, the City Council will need to schedule and hold a public hearing for that purpose. The action before the EDA is to accept the request and the Substandard Conditions Report and request that the City Council, at its next meeting, consider scheduling a public hearing for that purpose.

Diagram 1— Proposed TIF District SCOPE OF WORK The proposed district consists of seven (7) parcels with three (3) industrial structures. All of the buildings in the proposed district received anon-site interior and exterior inspection. The buildings were inspected in October 2005. Building code and Condition Deficiency reports for each building inspected by LHB are located in Appendix B. Page 3 �Fo a QNB ,y LANE fQ :EEt,. f4 lu ( 5 f -_4 „K/M� 4IV ,v�.. 4 � J 11-x!

Page 3 CONCLUSION After inspecting and evaluating the properties within the proposed TIF District and applying current statutory criteria for a Renewal and Renovation District under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10a, it is our professional opinion that the proposed TIF District qualifies as a Renewal and Renovation District. The remainder of this report describes our process and findings in detail. PART 2 — MINNESOTA STATUTE 469.174, SUBDIVISION 10a REOUIREMENTS The properties were inspected in accordance with the following requirements under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), which states: Interior Inspection "The municipality may not make such determination [that the building is structurally substandard] without an interior inspection of the property..." Exterior Inspection and Other Means "An interior inspection of the property is not required, if the municipality finds that (1) the municipality or authority is unable to gain access to the property after using its best efforts to obtain permission from the party that owns or controls the property; and (2) the evidence otherwise supports a reasonable conclusion that the, building is structurally substandard." Documentation "Written documentation of the findings and reasons why an interior inspection was not conducted must be made and retained under section 469.175, subdivision 3(l)." Qualification Requirements Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 (a) (1) requires two tests for occupied parcels: A. Coverage Test ..."parcels consisting of 70 percent of the area of the district are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots" The coverage required by the parcel to be considered occupied is defined under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(e), which states: "For purposes of this subdivision, a parcel is not occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots unless 15 percent of the area of the parcel contains building, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots." B. Condition of Buildings Test ..."and 20 percent of the buildings are, structurally substandard; and 30 percent of the other buildings require substantial renovation or clearance to remove existing conditions such as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete Page 4 buildings not suitable for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the health, safety, and general well-being of the community." Structurally substandard is defined under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b), which states: "For purposes of this subdivision, `structurally substandard' shall mean containing defects in structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities, light and ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors, which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify substantial renovation or clearance." Definition of Substantial Renovation Because "Substantial renovation" can mean different things to different people, LHB has attempted to clarify exactly what we consider to be "substantial renovation" as it relates to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(a) (1). a. First we researched national standards as to how much building owners should budget for annual maintenance and repair on their buildings as a percentage of replacement cost of the building. , 1. According to the University of California "Facilities Renewal Budget Model" report of 1999, building owners should budget between two and three percent of current replacement value of their buildings for maintenance and repair work. This does not include routine janitorial work and routine items such as changing light bulbs and filters. 2. According to the Building Research Board of the National Research Council, one and one-half to three percent of a building's replacement value should be budgeted for maintenance and repair. b. Based on this information, LHB utilized two and one-half percent as the desired amount of maintenance and repair that should be budgeted annually to keep a building in good working condition. We recognize through experience that only a small percentage of sophisticated building owners actually budget for and spend this amount of money every year on maintenance and repair. This is because most business owners are driven .by other budgetary issues and tend to neglect the building maintenance and repair line items in their annual budgets. c. By establishing how much a building owner. should be budgeting per year for maintenance and repairs, LHB is of the opinion that we could more easily establish an amount that would be considered "substantial" in comparison. If an owner is budgeting 2.5 percent of the building's replacementcost annually, most business owners or home owners would have to take out a loan to cover the cost of a substantial building improvement. Assuming they had a fixed level of income to work with, they would have to keep the loan payment at a level very near the original 2.5 percent they should have been budgeting each year. In Page 5 addition, they still would have to budget for the original 2.5 percent on top pf the loan. In most cases, the mortgage terms would have to extend out to a point beyond the life expectancy of the building they were trying to improve, as most buildings built in the past fifty years are not designed to last beyond 40 years. d. Based on the calculations described above, we have defined substantial renovation for purposes of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(a)(1), as renovation with costs exceeding 20% of the building's replacement value. 2. Buildings are not eligible to be considered structurally substandard unless they meet certain additional criteria, as set forth in Subdivision 10(c) which states: "A building is not structurally substandard if itis in compliance with the building code applicable to new buildings or could be modified to satisfy the building code at a cost of less than 15 percent of the cost of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on the site. The municipality may find that a building is not disqualified as structurally substandard under the preceding sentence on the basis of reasonably available evidence, such as the size, type, and age of the building, the average cost of plumbing, electrical, or structural repairs, or other similar reliable evidence." "Items of evidence that support such a conclusion [that the building is not disqualified] include recent fire or police inspections, on-site property appraisals or housing inspections, exterior evidence of deterioration, or other similar reliable evidence." PART 3 — PROCEDURES FOLLOWED A. LHB was able to schedule interior and exterior inspections for all three buildings in the proposed TIF District. Inspections were conducted on October 13, 2005. B. LHB also reviewed the language of the Eagan 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update related to the area including this proposed TIF District. PART 4 FINDINGS A. Coverage Test 1. The total square foot area of each parcel in the proposed TIF District was obtained from City records, GIS mapping and -site verification. 2. The total square foot area of buildings and site improvements on the parcels in the proposed TIF District was obtained from City records, GIS mapping and site verification. Page 6 3. The percentage of coverage for each parcel in the proposed TIF District was computed to determine if the 15 percent minimum requirement was met. The total square footage of parcels meeting the 15 percent requirement was divided into the total square footage of the entire district to determine if the 70 percent requirement was met. Finding: The proposed TIF District met the coverage test under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(e), which resulted in parcels consisting of 75.5 percent of the area of the proposed TIF District being occupied by buildings, streets, utilities or paved drives or parking lots (Diagram 2). This exceeds the 70 percent area coverage requirement for the proposed TIF District under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10a (a) (1). Diagram 2 Shaded area denotes area of parcels "improved" by buildings, streets, utilities or paved drives or parking lots Page 7 B. Condition of Building Test 1. Replacement Cost, The first step in evaluating a building to determine if it is substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or clearance is to determine its replacement cost. This is the cost of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on site. Replacement costs were researched using R.S. Means Cost Works square foot models for 2005. A replacement cost was calculated by first establishing building use (office, retail, residential, etc.), building construction type (wood, concrete, masonry, etc.), and building size to obtain the appropriate median replacement cost, which factors in the costs of construction in Eagan, Minnesota. Replacement cost includes labor, materials, and the contractor's overhead and profit. Replacement costs do not include architectural fees, legal fees or other "soft" costs not directly related to construction activities. Replacement cost for each building is tabulated in Appendix A. 2. Code Deficiencies The next step in evaluating a building is to determine what code deficiencies exist with respect to such building. Code deficiencies are those conditions for a building which are not in compliance with current building codes applicable to new buildings in the State of Minnesota. Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), specifically provides that a building cannot be considered structurally substandard if its code deficiencies are not at least 1.5 percent of the replacement cost of the building. As -a result, it was necessary to determine the extent of code deficiencies for each building in the proposed TIF District. The evaluation was made by reviewing all available information with respect to such buildings contained in City Building Inspection records and making interior and exterior inspections of the buildings. LHB utilizes the 2003 Minnesota State Building Code as the official code for our evaluations. The Minnesota State Building Code is actually a series of provisional codes written specifically for Minnesota only requirements, adoption of several international codes, and amendments to the adopted international codes. We chose not to count energy code deficiencies toward the thresholds required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b) and 10(c), due to concerns expressed by the State of Minnesota Court of Appeals in the Walser Auto Sales, Inc. vs. City of Richfield case filed November 13, 2001. After identifying the code deficiencies in each building, we used R.S. Means Cost Works 2005, Unit and Assembly Costs to determine the cost of correcting the identified deficiencies. We were than able to compare the correction costs with the Page 8 replacement cost of each building to determine if the costs for correcting code deficiencies meet the required 15 percent threshold. Finding: Three (3) out of three (3) buildings (100 percent) in the proposed TIF District contained code deficiencies exceeding the 15 percent threshold required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c). A complete Building Code and Condition Deficiency report for each building in the proposed TIF District can be found in Appendix B of this report. 3. System Condition Deficiencies If a building meets the minimum code deficiency threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), then in order for such building to be "structurally substandard" under Minnesota Statutes,' Section '469.174, Subdivision 10(b), the building's defects or deficiencies should be of sufficient total significance to justify "substantial renovation or clearance." Based on this definition, LHB re-evaluated each of the buildings that met the code deficiency threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), to determine if the total deficiencies warranted "substantial renovation or clearance" based on the criteria we outlined above. System condition deficiencies are a measurement of defects or substantial deterioration in site elements, structure, exterior envelope, mechanical and electrical components, fire protection and emergency systems, interior partitions, ceilings, floors and doors. The evaluation of system condition deficiencies was made by reviewing all available information contained in City records, and making interior and exterior inspections of the buildings. LHB only identified system condition deficiencies that were visible upon our inspection of the building or contained in City records. We did not consider the amount of "service life" used up for a particular component unless it was an obvious part of that component's deficiencies. After identifying the system condition deficiencies in each building, we used our professional judgment to determine if the list of deficiencies would total more than 20 percent of the replacement value of the building'when added to the cost of total code deficiencies. For example, if a building with a replacement value of 100 thousand dollars had 17 percent code deficiencies, we would look at the list of system condition deficiencies and make a professional judgment that the cost of fixing the system condition deficiencies would be at least $3,000 (3 percent), in order for that building to be considered substandard. Finding: In our professional opinion, two (2) of the three (3) buildings (67 percent) in the proposed TIF District are structurally substandard to a degree requiring substantial Page 9 renovation or clearance, because of defects in structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities, light and ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify substantial renovation or clearance. This exceeds the 20 percent requirement of Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (ii). Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (iii) Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (iii) requires that at least 30 percent of the other buildings (i.e., all buildings excluding the 20 percent minimum standard) meet the Subdivision . 10a (1), clause (iii) test in which the "other" buildings require substantial renovation or clearance to remove existing conditions such as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete buildings not suitable for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the health, safety, and general well-being of the community. Finding: 3 out of the 3 buildings (100 percent) in the proposed Renewal and Renovation District exhibit existing conditions warranting renovation or clearance as defined by Minnesota Statutes Subd. 10a. (1) (iii), described as follows: As noted above, two buildings (TIF parcel 6 and 8) were found to be structurally substandard as defined by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivsion 10 (b) and (c). The factors under Subdivision 10a (1), clause (iii) are broader, and include "obsolete buildings not suitable for conversion." Buildings with deficiencies significant enough to meet the structurally substandard test are, in effect, buildings that are obsolete and not suitable for. improvement. Therefore, both buildings found to be substandard in Appendix A and B also meet the lesser "obsolescence" test of Subdivsion 10a (1), clause (iii). TIF Parcel 7 —The code deficiencies in this building exceeded the 15 percent, criteria for being considered substandard, but the general condition deficiencies in addition to the code deficiencies did not exceed 20 percent which was established as our. minimum criteria for a substandard finding. LHB reviewed City documents, including the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update. Originally, the area West of Biscayne (including the parcels in the proposed TIF District) were guided toward industrial uses, but the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update changed the guide designation to Retail Commercial and the zoning to Neighborhood Business. One of the reasons for the change was the age and condition of the properties, suggesting that they should not be encouraged to continue as industrial uses. This change in guide designation and zoning was the culmination of more than 10 years of discussion regarding the temporary nature of the industrial uses in the area as Page 10 property around it developed into permanent residential uses, consistent with their guide designations. The definition of the area as Neighborhood Business also served the purpose of providing an opportunity for retail and services to be established in a part of the City that does not currently have them. Based on our review of the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update, we find this parcel to be an obsolete land use incompatible with the guide designation and zoning for these parcels and the surrounding residential neighborhoods. C. Distribution of substandard structures Much of this report has focused on the condition of individual buildings as they relate to requirements identified by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 and 10a. It is also important to look at the distribution of substandard buildings throughout the geographic area of the proposed TIF District. Finding: Buildings meeting the requirements of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 and 10a are reasonably distributed throughout the geographic area of the proposed TIF District (Diagram 3).

TO: Tom Hedges, City Administrator FROM: Michael G. Dougherty, City Attorney DATE: March 28, 2006 RE: Diffley Marketplace — County Action Our File No. 206-23893 In response to your inquiry, the following is my analysis of the situation governing the Diffley Marketplace proposal. EXISTING CONDITIONS • Development consists of two parcels; one with accesses to Diffley Road and Patrick Road, and the other with access to Daniel Drive • Dakota County manages Diffley Road and the access thereto; City of Eagan manages Daniel Drive and access thereto • Developer proposes to replat both parcels into one lot; Proposed plat includes an easement dedicated to Dakota County restricting access to Diffley Road to an entrance of 60 feet at one location. No similar easement exists in favor of the City with respect to Daniel Drive. ANALYSIS 1. County's Role in Plat Approval. Preliminary plats are to be submitted by the City to the County Engineer for written comments and recommendations. The Engineer's review is limited to factors of County significance in conformance with County Guidelines. The County Guidelines must provide for development and redevelopment scenarios, allow for variances and reflect consideration of any City guidelines. Written comments from the Engineer must state whether the plat meets the County Guidelines and describe any modification necessary to bring the plat into conformity with the Guidelines. Failure to obtain the written comments and. recommendations of the Engineer in no manner affects the platting of the property. In the event the City does not amend the plat to conform to the Engineer's recommendations, representatives Hedges March 28, 2006 Page 2 from the County and City shall meet to discuss the differences and determine whether changes to the plat are appropriate prior to final approval. Can the County impose conditions to the approval of a plat? I find no legal authority that grants the County any authority to require dedications, exactions or conditions to its approval of plats (e.g. access restrictions). While I am aware that there is a 1970 law that grants Dakota County Board the authorization to approve plats, there is nothing within the law that addresses dedications or conditions. What standard must the County exercise in its plat approval decisions? The County Board's decision must not be 'arbitrary and capricious. In other words, it must have a rational basis related to promoting public health, safety and general welfare. What is the City's role with respect to plat approval? Preliminary plats must be submitted to the City. The City may employ a qualified person to check and verify the surveys and plat and to determine the suitability of the plat from the standpoint of community planning. If the proposed plat abuts a County road, the City is required to submit the same to the County Engineer for written comments and recommendations. Following City approval of a preliminary plat, the City shall submit to the County Board notice of itsapproval along with a statement addressing the disposition of any comments or recommendations made by the County Engineer. In the event that the City did not amend the plat to conform to the recommendations, representatives from the County and City shall meet to discuss the differences. The law does not address the effects of a continued disagreement. However, the statute does state that the time period for approval continues to run and there is a presumption of approval if not acted upon within the time frame (120 days from preliminary plats and 60 days for final plat). What standard must the City exercise in its plat approval decision? As noted with respect to the County, the City cannot be arbitrary or capricious. Can the County remove the Diffley access as part of the plat approval? As noted, I am unaware of any authority for the County being able to place conditions on the plat approval. Similarly, absent the planned development process, the City would not be able to remove the access to Daniel Drive. However, since the proposal is part of a planned development district, the City retains the right to remove or modify the Daniel Drive access as part of its zoning requirement. Can the County require the City to provide full access to Daniel Drive as a condition of approving a full or % access on Diffley Road? The answer to this question needs to be clarified as being distinct from the discussion of plat approvals. As stated above, the County can not require such action in connection with a plat approval, nor could it require the developer or City to install a right turn lane or medians within Diffley Road. However, the County "may" condition a variance approval . if such condition is consistent with State statute and County Guideline and is further rationally related to mitigating the consequences of the granting of the variance. Hedges March 28, 2006 Page 3 As noted, the County manages Diffley Road. The County's desire for a signalized intersection (or a % intersection, etc.) is solely a decision it can choose to implement when it has appropriate funding. In short, a decision to grant a % intersection today would not foreclose the County's opportunity to place a median in lieu thereof sometime in the future. Similarly, the opening of a full access to Daniel Drive today would not foreclose a future city council from placing a median in Daniel Drive to foreclose left-hand turns from the development. What legal issues presently need to be addressed? As discussed earlier, the County Engineer's comments with respect to the plat should be limited to whether the Diffley access is at the right location. The plat is simply one lot and does not include any right of way. To the extent that the County wishes to modify Diffley Road to meet the County's needs, it may do so now or whenever it chooses. 'I am unaware of any legal basis .for requiring the City or developer to make access modifications, and therefore approval of the plat should not be an issue. In the area of the access to Daniel Drive and the request for a variance to the County's spacing guidelines, those decisions rest with the City. Council.. A decision by the County Board on the variance request needs to be rationally based and supported by the facts. Assuming that the board approves the request with the condition of full access to Daniel Drive, and the City disagrees with the County's actions, the Council may appeal the Board's decision. Otherwise, if the City is receptive to the County's conditions, it may so act upon the access to Daniel Drive as part of the planned development. Irrespective of the variance request, the ultimate access to Daniel Drive is within the City's purview as a result of the planned development and site plan approval. Again, so long as the City's decision is not arbitrary and capricious, it will be upheld. The development is entitled to reasonable and convenient access. Even without an access to Daniel Drive, the property would be served by accesses to Diffley and to Lexington Avenue. Finally, I note that improvements made to a Dakota County road usually require participation of the host city. To the extent that accommodation cannot be reached between the County, City and developer as to the type of access to Diffley Road from the development, an important discussion may be required as to how and when the funds are available for the type of improvements anticipated for Diffley Road, including signalization.

Payment of application fee JUSTORICAL REVIEW On March 25, 2005 Revestors signed a purchase agreement for 8.55 acres (372,450 square feet) from Red fine Enterprises, LLC (Oberg) for $1,300,000 or $3.50 per square foot. The sellers indicated that the adjacent parcel might be available for purchase. We attempted to negotiate with the owner (Schoenecker) by offering to purchase the .99 acre site (43,125 square foot) property for $150,000 ($3.50 per square foot), the value of the land only. On April 21, 2005 Schoenecker rejected out offers and proceeded in his attempt to sell his property to some other potential party with an asking price of $330,000. We then attended five meetings between our development team and Eagan staff during May and June (5/9, 5/16, 5/17, 6/1, &z 6115) with the developer attempting to create a vision and plan for the 8.55 acre site that would be desirable for the community, attractive to potential tenants and supported by the city. By June 29, 2005 our assessment was that a solid relationship was developing between all parties to the transaction and we were confident that a high quality project would be advanced so on that date we closed the purchase of the Oberg land.. On the following day, June 30, 2005 we once again met with Eagan staff to prepare for a meeting with two Eagan Finance Team members together with other staff and both developers (Revestors and Manley). This meeting occurred on July 5, 2005 where a decision was reached for both developers to voluntarily delay there independent plans for individual adjacent parcels to provide time to investigate a master plan for the entire parcel. This meeting resulted in a predevelopment agreement with the developers requested to fund the estimated cost ($20,0011) of researching the possibilities. Revestors deposited their share of the requested deposit ($16,800) on August 12, 2005, When Manley decided against making their share of the deposit, Revestors contributed the balance of the deposit ($3,200) on August 31, 2005. As progress continued to develop on a master plan for time entire project we were encouraged to contact Schoenecker to engage in a second attempt to negotiate the purchase of his land. The belief was that by purchasing his land we would be We to move some of the wetlands, provide water filtration and retention for the entire development, add 10,000 rentable square feet to the phase I buildings, allow the city to vacate most of the road that only served the Schoenecker parcel and clean up the site by removing the existing old building. It was stated that this purchase by Revestors would not negatively affect the consideration of a redevelopment district by the city but rather would enhance and protect those options. On Omber 6, 2005 we initiated another round of negotiating with Schoenecker which resulted in a purchase agreement to acquire his project for $300,000 indicating that it would dost an additional $30,000 to remove the building. The result of this purchase is that we would spend $330,000 to acquire a property that would have a resulting.value of $150,000 if valued equal to the Oberg site. On December 22, 2005 we deposited $5,100 with the city together with our city submittal for the phase I project. We attempted to close the Schoenecker purchase on December 29, 2005 but it was temporarily delayed to cleat up a minor title issue. Meetings have continued with the architect, general contractor, owners, developers and the city staff. In addition to these regular meetings additional meetings have taken place with outside special consultants to advance the direction the entire team supported. On January 23, 2006 we met with representatives from Ehlers to help us understand the redevelopment process which included a request for specific information they needed to support their research. This requested information was supplied to Ehlers on February 3, 2006. The information that was supplied resulted in a meeting on February 21, 2006 with Ehlers, city staff members, the city attorney and our development team members. The information shared at that meeting left our development team totally confused with a contrast between the information requested on January 23, 2006 and the conclusions offered on February 21, 2006. The information provided with this historical review is our attempt to cooperate with a new. understanding that developed at this last meeting. RESPONSE The goal of the new questions seems to be an attempt to determine the difference between the cost of — acquiring the additional acreage including the cost of returning the site to the condition of undeveloped land and the value of the resulting undeveloped land. 2Wi1� We have not been negotiating with Hyster, Wood, or Mellon and therefore have no valid way of forecasting the potential purchase price. Perhaps legal counsel for the city has an estimate for you to use, Our position is that the Hyster, Wood and Mellon properties are not more valuable than the Schoenecker property which was purchased for $300,000. ik Schoeneeker Agam Site Sau= no tape .99 acres 43,125 square feet r $300,000 Da=fifion $30,000 1 -at 1 Cost $330,000 Hyster .70 acres 30,5010 square feet $ 7 $25,000 $ 7 Wood .88 acres 38,350 square fee $ 7 $25,000 $' Mellon .SS acres 38,3.50 square fee $ 7 $ 7 $ 7 We see two different ways the value of the resulting land could be determined. 1.

The value of the purchase of the Oberg land plus land purchase commissions and fees ($4.90 per square foot) It is clear fiom this analysis, and consistent with otir belief, that an undeveloped laud value of not more than $5.00 ptr square foot should be applied Cast-OfAgguiring.Plus Demoli ' n Schoenecker $330,000 Hyster $ ?

We are not interested in cash flawingor purchasing additional land above these values. If the city has an interest in paying higher prices and a vehicle for cash flowing and being reimbursed for the difference between the actual costs and the $5.00 per square foot we would pay for the land, then we should proceed with this option. We also believe you should consider these additional costs that have already been incurred or will likely be incurred if this expanded plan advances. 1.

The proposed TIF District is located in the City of Eagan, in a general area bounded by State Highway 3 (South Robert Trail), Red Pine Lane, Biscayne Avenue and Gun Club Road (Diagram 1). The purpose of LHB's work was to determine whether the proposed TIF District meets the statutory requirements for coverage, and whether three buildings on seven parcels, located within the proposed TIF District, meet the qualifications required for a Renewal and Renovation District. Diagram 1— Proposed TIF District SCOPE OF WORK The proposed district consists of seven (7) parcels with three (3) industrial structures. All of the buildings in the proposed district received an on-site interior and exterior inspection. The buildings were inspected in October 2005. Building code and Condition Deficiency reports for each building inspected by LBB are located in Appendix B. Page 3 21q 37 o AIN 1 M F ^� L A lV E. C9'.!.u.i; �' Q a 313 I� I A50 Mum 4 p A.

Page 3 21q 37 CONCLUSION After inspecting and evaluating the properties within the proposed TIF District and applying current statutory criteria for a Renewal and Renovation District under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10a, it is our professional opinion that the proposed TIF District qualifies as a Renewal and Renovation District. The remainder of this report describes our process and findings in detail. PART 2 — MINNESOTA STATUTE 469.174, SUBDIVISION 10a REOUIREMENTS The properties were inspected in accordance with the following requirements under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), which states: Interior Inspection "The municipality may not make such determination [that the building is structurally substandard] without an interior inspection of the property..." Exterior Inspection and Other Means "An interior inspection of the property is not required, if the municipality finds that (1) the municipality or authority is unable to gain access to the property after using its best efforts to obtain permission from the party that owns or controls the property; and (2) the evidence otherwise supports a reasonable conclusion that the building is structurally substandard." Documentation "Written documentation of the findings and reasons why an interior inspection was not conducted must be made and retained under section 469.175, subdivision 3(1)." Qualification Requirements Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 (a) (1) requires two tests for occupied parcels: A. Coverage Test ..."parcels consisting of 70 percent of the area of the district are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots" The coverage required by the parcel to be considered occupied is defined under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(e), which states: "For purposes of this subdivision, a parcel is not occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking .lots. unless 15 percent of the area of the parcel contains building, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots." B. Condition of Buildings Test ..."and 20 percent, of the buildings are structurally substandard; and 30 percent of the other buildings require substantial renovation or clearance to remove existing conditions such as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete Page 4 buildings not suitable ,for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the health, safety, and general well-being of the community." Structurally substandard is defined under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b), which states: "For purposes of this subdivision, `structurally substandard' shall mean containing defects in structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities, light and ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors, which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify substantial renovation or clearance.." Definition of Substantial Renovation Because "Substantial renovation" can mean different things to different people, LHB has attempted to clarify exactly what we consider to be "substantial renovation" as it relates to Minnesota Statutes, Section. 469.174, Subdivision 10(a) (1). a. First we researched national standards as to how much building owners should budget for annual maintenance and repair on their buildings as'a percentage of replacement cost of the building. 1. According to the University of California "Facilities Renewal Budget Model" report of 1999, building owners should budget between two and three percent of current replacement value of their buildings for maintenance and repair work. This does not include routine janitorial work and routine items such as changing light bulbs and filters. 2. According to the Building Research Board of the National Research Council, one and one-half to three percent of a building's replacement value should be budgeted for maintenance and repair. b. Based on this information, LHB utilized two and one-half percent as the desired amount of maintenance and repair that should be budgeted annually to keep a building in good working condition. We recognize through experience that only a small percentage of sophisticated building owners actually budget for and spend this amount of money every year on maintenance and repair. This is because most business owners are driven by other budgetary issues and tend to neglect the building maintenance and repair line items in their annual budgets. c. By establishing how much a building owner should be budgeting per year for maintenance and repairs, LHB is of the opinion that we could more easily establish an amount that would be considered "substantial" in comparison. If an owner is budgeting 2.5 percent of the building's replacement cost annually, most business owners or home owners would have to take out a loan to cover the cost of a substantial building improvement. Assuming they had a fixed level of income to work with, they would have to keep the loan payment at a level very near the original 2.5 percent they should have been budgeting each year. In Page 5 219 K addition, they still would have to budget for the original 2.5 percent on top of the loan. In most cases, the mortgage terms would have to extend out to a point beyond the life expectancy of the building they were trying to improve, as most buildings built in the past fifty years are not designed to last beyond 40 years. d. Based on the calculations described above, we have defined substantial renovation for purposes of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(a)(1), as renovation with costs exceeding 20% of the building's replacement value. 2. Buildings are not eligible to be considered structurally substandard unless they meet certain additional criteria, as set forth in Subdivision 10(c) which. states: "A building is not structurally substandard if it is in compliance with the building code applicable to new buildings or could be modified to satisfy the building code at a cost of less than 15 percent of the cost of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on the site. The municipality may find that a building is not disqualified as structurally substandard under the preceding sentence on the basis of reasonably available evidence, such as the size, type, and age of the building, the average cost of plumbing, electrical, or ,structural repairs, or other similar- reliable evidence." "Items of evidence that support such a conclusion [that the building is not disqualified] include recent fire or police. inspections, on-site property appraisals or housing inspections, exterior evidence of deterioration, or other similar reliable evidence." PART 3 — PROCEDURES FOLLOWED A. LHB was able to schedule interior and exterior inspections for all three buildings in the proposed TIF District. Inspections were conducted on October 13, 2005. B. LHB also reviewed the language of the Eagan 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update related to the area including this proposed TIF District. PART 4 — FINDINGS A. Coverage Test 1. The total square foot area of each parcel in the proposed TIF District was obtained from City records, GIS mapping and site verification. 2. The total square foot area of buildings and site improvements on the parcels in the proposed TIF District was obtained from. City records, GIS mapping and site verification. Page 6 21 9 to, 3. The percentage of coverage for each parcel in the proposed TIF District was computed to determine if the 15 percent minimum requirement was met. The total square footage of parcels meeting the 15 percent requirement was divided into the total square footage of the entire district to determine if the 70 percent requirement was met. Finding: The proposed TIF District met the coverage test under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(e), which resulted in parcels consisting of 75.5 percent of the area of the proposed TIF District being occupied by buildings, streets, utilities or paved drives or parking lots (Diagram 2). This exceeds the 70 percent area coverage requirement for the proposed TIF District under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10a (a) (1). Diagram 2 Shaded area denotes area of parcels "improved" by buildings, streets, utilities or paved drives or parking lots Page 7 219 M B. Condition of Building Test 1. Replacement Cost The first step in evaluating a building to determine if it is substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or clearance, is to determine its replacement cost. This is the cost 'of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on site. Replacement costs were researched using R.S. Means Cost Works square foot models for 2005. A replacement cost was calculated by first establishing building use (office, retail, residential, etc.), building construction type (wood, concrete, masonry, etc.), and building size to obtain the appropriate ,median replacement cost, which factors in the costs of construction in.Eagan, Minnesota. Replacement cost includes labor, materials, and the contractor's overhead and profit. Replacement costs do not include architectural fees, legal fees or other "soft" costs not directly related to construction activities. Replacement cost for each building is tabulated in Appendix A. 2. Code Deficiencies The next step in evaluating a building is to determine what code deficiencies exist with respect to such building. Code deficiencies are those conditions fora building which are not in compliance with current building codes applicable to new buildings in the State of Minnesota. Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), specifically provides that a building cannot be considered structurally substandard if its code deficiencies are not at least 15 percent of the replacement cost of the building. As a result, it was necessary to determine the extent of code deficiencies for each building in the proposed TIF District. The evaluation was made by reviewing all available information with respect to such buildings contained in City Building Inspection records and making interior and exterior inspections of the buildings. LHB utilizes the 2003 Minnesota State Building Code as the official code for our evaluations. The Minnesota State Building Code is actually a series of provisional codes written specifically for Minnesota only requirements, adoption of several international codes, and amendments to the adopted international codes. We chose not to count energy code deficiencies toward the thresholds required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b) and 10(c), due to concerns expressed by the State of Minnesota Court of Appeals in the Walser Auto Sales, Inc. vs. City of Richfield case filed November 13, 2001. After identifying the code deficiencies in each building, we used R.S. Means Cost Works 2005, Unit and Assembly Costs to determine the cost of correcting the identified deficiencies. 'We were than able to compare the correction costs with the Page 8 replacement cost of each building to determine if the costs for correcting code deficiencies meet the required 15 percent threshold. Finding: Three (3) out of three (3) buildings (100 percent) in the proposed TIF District contained code deficiencies exceeding the 15 percent threshold required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c). A complete Building Code and Condition Deficiency report for each building in the proposed TIF District can be found in Appendix B of this report. 3. System Condition Deficiencies If a building meets the minimum code deficiency threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), then in order for such building to be "structurally substandard" under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b), the building's defects or deficiencies should be of sufficient total significance to justify "substantial renovation or clearance." Based on this definition, LHB re-evaluated each of the buildings that met the code deficiency threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), to determine if the total deficiencies warranted "substantial renovation or clearance" based on the criteria we outlined above. System condition deficiencies are a measurement of defects or substantial deterioration in site elements, structure, exterior envelope, mechanical and electrical components, fire protection and emergency systems, interior partitions, ceilings, floors and doors. The evaluation of system condition deficiencies was made by reviewing all available information contained in City records, and making interior and exterior inspections of the buildings. LHB only identified system condition deficiencies that were visible upon our inspection of the building or contained in City records. We did not consider the amount of "service life" used up for a particular component unless it was an obvious part of that component's deficiencies. After identifying the system condition deficiencies in each building, we used our professional judgment to determine if the list of deficiencies would total more than 20 percent of the replacement value of the building when added to the cost of total code deficiencies. For example, if a building with a replacement value of 100 thousand dollars had 17 percent code deficiencies, we would look at the list of system condition deficiencies and make a professional judgment that the cost of fixing the system condition deficiencies would be at least $3,000 (3 percent), in order for that building to be considered substandard. Finding: In our professional opinion, two (2) proposed TIF District are structurally Page 9 of the three (3) buildings (67 percent) in the substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or clearance, because of defects in structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities, light and ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify substantial renovation or clearance. This exceeds the 20 percent requirement of Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (ii). Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (iii) Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (iii) requires that at least 30 percent of the other buildings (i.e., all buildings excluding the 20 percent minimum standard) meet the Subdivision 10a (1), clause (iii) test in which the "other" buildings require substantial renovation or clearance to remove existing conditions such as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete buildings not suitable for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the health, safety, and general well-being of the community. Finding: 3 out of the 3 buildings (100 percent) in the proposed Renewal and Renovation District exhibit existing conditions warranting renovation or clearance as defined by Minnesota Statutes Subd. 10a. (1) (iii), described as follows: • As noted above, two buildings (TIF parcel 6 and 8) were found to be structurally substandard as defined by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivsion 10 (b) and (c). The factors under Subdivision 10a (1), clause (iii) are broader, and include "obsolete buildings not suitable for conversion." Buildings with deficiencies significant enough to meet the structurally substandard test are, in effect, buildings that are obsolete and not suitable for improvement. Therefore, both buildings found to be substandard in Appendix A and B also meet the lesser "obsolescence" test of Subdivsion 10a (1), clause (iii). • TIF Parcel 7 —The code deficiencies in this building exceeded the 15 percent criteria for being considered substandard, but the general condition .deficiencies in addition to the code deficiencies did not exceed 20 percent which was established as our minimum criteria for a substandard finding. LHB reviewed City documents, including the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update. Originally, the area West of Biscayne (including the parcels in the proposed TIF District) were guided toward industrial uses, but the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update changed the guide designation to Retail Commercial and the zoning to Neighborhood Business. One of the reasons for the change was the age and condition of the properties, suggesting that they should not be encouraged to continue as industrial uses. This change in guide designation and zoning was the culmination of more than 10 years of discussion regarding the temporary nature. of the industrial uses in the area as Page 10 20 P property around it developed into permanent residential uses, consistent with their guide designations. The definition of the area as Neighborhood Business also served the.purpose of providing an opportunity for retail and. services to be established in a part of the City that does not currently have them. Based on our review of the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update, we find this parcel to be an obsolete land use incompatible with the guide designation and zoning for these parcels and the surrounding residential neighborhoods. C. Distribution of substandard structures Much of this report has focused on the condition of individual buildings as they relate to requirements identified by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 and 10a. It is also important to look at the distribution of substandard buildings throughout the geographic area of the proposed TIF District. Finding: Buildings meeting the requirements of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 and 10a are reasonably distributed throughout the geographic area of the proposed TIF District (Diagram 3).

RECEIVE PETITION AND DIRECT CITY STAFF TO REQUEST FORMAL APPLICATION FOR HOUSING IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT CONSIDERATION, CEDAR BLUFFS HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To receive a petition from the Cedar Bluffs Homeowners Association and Direct City Staff to Request Formal Application for Housing Improvement District Consideration for their property. FACTS: ➢ In August 2005, the City Council was approached by the Cedar Bluffs Homeowners Association regarding the potential creation of a City policy for the creation of Housing Improvement Districts, which permit homeowners associations to work with cities to finance improvements to common areas that cannot be financed by other means. ➢ In response, the City Council adopted a policy on September 20, 2005 that would permit consideration of petitions and the process by which applications would be reviewed. ➢ The Cedar Bluffs Homeowners Association, which includes 120 units on approximately 11.4 acres, has submitted a preliminary application and petition. The preliminary application is consistent with the intent of the Housing Improvement Area policy in that: o The proposed improvements address several policy goals concerning the preservation of housing stock as stated below. o The physical improvements meet the policy guidelines in that they are restricted to common areas, are primarily exterior improvements, are integral to the operation of the project and are of a permanent nature. o The association has addressed the basic policy criteria demonstrating that HIA financial assistance is last resort financing. Cedar Bluffs has provided documentation showing that the improvements cannot be paid with existing funds; several letters of denial by lenders have also been provided. o The association has met the petition requirement by submitting petitions from 51% of property owners requesting a Housing Improvement Area be established. ➢ Although only a proposal, the Cedar Bluffs Housing Improvement Area is consistent with the City's adopted policy in that: o It will promote neighborhood stabilization and revitalization by the removal of blight and/or upgrading of the existing housing stock in the neighborhood. o It will likely increase property values and therefore increase the tax base of the City in order to ensure the long-term ability of the City to provide adequate services for its residents. o Due to increased property values and a proposed amendment to the Association's Declaration prohibiting resale to investors, it will stabilize and/or increase the owner -occupancy level within the neighborhood. ➢ The proposed improvements are specific to common areas and include: o Replacement of 480 window units o Replacement of concrete aprons located on the front side of all 20 buildings o Repair of foundation block on 20 buildings, as necessary o Replacement of concrete pool deck o Replacement of fence around pool area ➢ The estimated loan amount for these improvements is $750,000. ➢ The next phase of the review is a formal submittal of improvement plans, detailed financial plans and a fee to cover City costs associated with the detailed review. ➢ This action item is a checkpoint for the City Council to authorize the request for the formal application and to permit staff to notice and schedule a public hearing for the consideration of a district when the review is completed. ATTACHMENTS: ➢ Preliminary Application Form and sample Petition on pages through ➢ The complete Preliminary Application is available in Community Development if desired. ➢ Location map on page 224 Item 2.

City of Eagan 230 k, July 20, 2004 Dear Cedar Bluff Townhome Owner: r OmEa Ea2 The attached Annual Report has been prepared at the direction of the Board of Directors of Cedar Bluff Townhome Condominium Association, Inc., in keeping with the requirements of the Bylaws, Bylaw 39. The Association's fiscal year ends on June 30d' and typically the members should look forward to receiving the Annual Report in September. However, when we assumed management responsibilities last December we were not provided with anything resembling a complete set of organized accounting records for the 6/30103 fiscal year end, and indeed no monthly financial statements had been prepared for the five months of the current fiscal year- either ,• from July through November 2003. Therefore it was impossible to conduct an audit until the farmer management company hired a bookkeeping service to create a general ledger by reconstructing all of the financial activity of the first 17 months. Following receipt of that information this spring, the books were then audited by a CPA firm hired by the Association. The Association realized an overall net surplus of $38,715• during its first fiscal year. In accordance with current preferred accounting practice, the Association's financial activity is separated into Operating and Replacement Funds. The Operating Fund contributed $17,990 of this surplus. However, there was no formal allocation of the monthly assessment income to the Replacement Fund. The Replacement Fund reported a surplus of $20,725. Aside from $8 of interest, all of the income was realized from the'two months of working capital contributions collected at the closing of the sale of each unit. There were no capital expenditures charged to the Replacement Fund. As of June 30, 2003, total Member's Equity amounted to $38,715, and cash on hand totaled $25,505. If there are any questions regarding the information presented, please feel free to contact a member of the Board or myself. Very truly yours, W_(_ David C.

Introduction: PATRICK EAGAN PARK BACKGROUND NARRATIVE Patrick Eagan Park is the largest tract of City park land in the Eagan system. Consisting of approximately 114 acres, the park is located in the south center of the City. The primary access is located on the east side of the park, off of Lexington Avenue. A number of'informal, user developed accesses also exist, most often originating from the surrounding residential developments. Land for the park was acquired by the City of.Eagan, or Eagan Township prior to 1975, through a series of nine acquisitions, the first of which took place in 1972, the last in 2004.The acquisitions have included two residences, both of which still exist within the park and continue to be used. 'The Deerwood House on the west side is currently leased as a residence while the McCarthy House on the east is used for a variety of very popular studio arts programs. Funding for the acquisitions has come from a variety of sources including the City,. and State and Federal grants. A number of the grants have stipulations associated with them that limit how the park may be improved or used, most being themed around preservation and low impact. The use of the property surrounding the park property is highly variable. Large and small lot residential developments border significant portions of the park.. A naturalistic, privately owned, "Art, Park" abuts the park on the south end. A City owned, wooded; ten acre parcel, acquired in 2005 is located at the southeast corner of the park but is considered as a buffer to the park versus an extension of it. A large church is located on the Northeast border. The church and City share a paved parking lot located just north of the existing primary access from Lexington Avenue. This access point is soon to be eliminated and replaced with an access that flows directly into the paved lot and is controlled by a four way semaphore aligned with Northview Park Road. The character of the park itself can best be described as a steep natural bowl. The heavily wooded perimeter slopes to a wet land complex located at the bottom. The wetland complex functions as a significant component of the City storm water system, serving primarily as a retention basin. The natural inflows and outflows have been altered by the installation of control structures. The water quality is highly variable, depending upon climatic conditions. Erodable soils exist on several of the slopes with a number of active gullies having been formed. The woodlands are, also highly variable ranging from natural stands of mature oaks to stands of box elder and elm in areas that had been disturbed. Stands of coniferous trees that may have been introduced into the park can also be found. The most recent acquisition included several acres of what had been pasture land. Planned improvements within the park have been minimal. A series of natural surface trails of varying width meander through park and loop the wetlands. The trails are now used exclusively for hiking. Because of the difficulties associated with the steep slopes and potential impacts to the narrow trails, attempts at maintaining cross-country ski trails were' abandoned after several years. A number of wooden benches and some minimal interpretative signage have been installed along the trail by various Eagle Scouts.. Maintenance of the park has mirrored the minimalist approach to improvements being limited primarily to mowing and clearing the trail corridors and removing hazard and diseased trees. Attempts to contain the spread of invasive, non-native species have been accelerated in recent years. 19 Scope of Service This project contains three sub -projects described below: 1.

FACTS: • The City Council first reviewed the conceptual idea and design for a 9 -hole miniature golf course within Cascade Bay on January 17, 2006.This is a unique proposal because the course will be constructed with all artificial turf. • Based on the initial construction cost estimate and projected revenue the Council directed staff to pursue the proposal with the expectation that this amenity could be incorporated in time for the 2006 Cascade Bay season. • Staff has worked to develop more detailed costs, operational procedures, and details of how this amenity can capture guests to Cascade Bay during their regular season. In addition a plan is in place to allow the operation of the golf course later in the evening after the water park is closed and past the Cascade Bay Labor Day season in order to expand the playability of the course.

OLD BUSINESS A. FINAL PLAT AND FINAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT (DIFFLEY MARKETPLACE) — RELIANCE DEVELOPMENT ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To Approve a Final Plat (Diffley Marketplace ) creating one lot on approximately 10.94 acres located south of Diffley Road and east of Lexington Avenue, legally described as Outlot A, Lexington Pointe 13th Addition and Outlot A, Lexington Pointe 7th Addition, in the NW '/4 of Section 26; To Maintain or Delete or Modify condition #28 of the Approved Preliminary Planned. Development and Approve (or deny) a Final Planned Development for a retail commercial development (Diffley Marketplace) consisting of a 43,175 sq. ft. grocery store and two 10,000 sq. ft. multi -tenant retail buildings upon 10.94 acres located south of Diffley Road and east of Lexington Avenue, legally described as Outlot A, Lexington Pointe 13th Addition and Outlot A, Lexington Pointe 7th Addition, in the NW t/4 of Section 26, subject to conditions in the Council minutes; Cad To direct Findings of Fact for Denial on the revised Preliminary/Final Development Site Plan submitted on March 10, 2006. REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: At least three votes. FACTS: ➢ The City Council approved a Preliminary Planned Development on October 6, 2005. Condition #28 of that approval stated: "The driveway connection to Daniel Drive shall be eliminated and the plans resubmitted to Dakota County for review." The proposed site plan modification to eliminate the Daniel Drive access was resubmitted to the County's Plat Commission and subsequently denied. This denial was then appealed to the County Board, and the County Plat Commission's denial was upheld. ➢ _ Following the suggestions and concerns of the Plat Commission as stated in their denial letter, the development plans were modified to show a %-access at Diffley Road and a one- way "entrance only" access from Daniel Drive. The City then submitted a formal request to the Plat Commission for a required variance to its access spacing guidelines. �J 1 ➢ On March 7, 2006 the Dakota County Plat Commission recommended approval of the variance to the County's Access Spacing Guidelines with the condition that the existing full access from Diffley Rd. be reconstructed to the more limited3/4-access configuration with a one-way "entrance only" connection to Daniel Dr. They also recommended approval of the Preliminary and Final Plat submittals, which already incorporated these anticipated conditions. On March 21, the County Physical Development Committee (of the whole) did not accept their Plat commission's recommendation of approval and they further stipulated that ultimate County Board approval would require a full 2 -way access to Daniel Dr. ➢ Although the Developer has not ,yet submitted revised site plans eliminating all access to Daniel Dr. as required by Condition #28, a Final Planned Development Agreement and Site Plan for the first phase development (grocery store and two retail buildings) incorporating a one-way connection to Daniel Dr. has been prepared for City Council consideration. ISSUES: ➢ It is anticipated that the full County Board (meeting on Tuesday morning, April 4) will be . considering their Physical Development Committee's recommendation to require the Diffley Marketplace development incorporate a 2 -way access to Daniel Dr. Results of that meeting, and any action affecting potential City Council approval options for this development, will be provided at the Council meeting Tuesday night. ➢ If any access connection to Daniel Dr. (one-way or two-way) is given consideration by the Council, it should incorporate the appropriate amendment to condition #28 of the approved Preliminary Planned Development. ➢ With no access to Daniel Dr. (resulting in no variance to the County's access spacing guidelines), the County will require the current full access median break to be closed limiting access to the development and the west parking lot of Northview Elementary School to a right-in/right-out movement only. Also, without the additional traffic volume at the intersection of Daniel Dr and Diffley Rd., it is doubtful that warrants will ever be met to justify the installation of a traffic signal at that location.

District 196) of the implications surrounding a potential commercial development located directly south of Northview Elementary School on Diffley Road, adjacent to Daniel Drive. We are in favor, if the possibility exists, for a traffic signal to be placed on Diffley Road, Daniel Drive and the east entrance/exit to Northview Elementary School. A controlled intersection at that location would enable School District 196 buses, as well as parents, who are dropping off students better and safer access as well as more efficiency to Northview Elementary School, as we understand the possibilities. Even though School District 196 provides busing for the neighborhoods located across Diffley Road north, we are aware of children crossing Diffley Road on their own volition going -to and from Northview Elementary School, Dakota Hills Middle School and Eagan High School as well as children crossing Diffley Road during non -school times for athletic events being held on the grounds just north of Northview Elementary School and the Northview Park grounds.

I am writing to urge the City Council to accept the access plan approved by the Dakota County Board at its most recent meeting. Specifically, the County Board approved a three-quarter access linking both the Diffley Ventures and corresponding elementary school sites to Diffley Road. The County has approved the Diffley Road access on condition that the Daniel Drive access to the Diffley Ventures site remain "full access" to allow ingress and egress for neighborhood vehicle traffic. While we understand the City would prefer the Daniel access be limited to an entrance only (we had previously accepted that limitation as either full or restricted access works for us), the County is unwilling to accept this limitation. The ownership of Diffley Ventures feels that they have done what is possible to help resolve this question. Therefore, we respectfully urge that the City of Eagan concur in the Diffley Road/Daniel Drive. access as approved by Dakota County. Please call me if you have any questions. ly, Pet. oyle, for Larkin Hoffman Daly & Lindgren Ltd.

The applicant would like to continue providing dog "babysitting" services at her home. AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subdivision 5 states, in part, 1. The provisions of this chapter may be amended by the majority vote of the council, except that amendments changing the boundaries of any district or changing the regulations. of any district may only be made by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the council. 2. The Council shall not rezone any land in any zoning district or make any other proposed amendment to this chapter without first having referred it to the planning commission for its consideration and recommendation. BACKGROUND/HISTORY This property consists of a %z acre lot located on a cul-de-sac that backs up to 35E. The applicant has periodically taken in special -needs dogs at the subject site -over the past year or so, unaware that there was any Code violation. For an average month, Ms. Tscherne will baby sit for 3 dogs for a total of 12 days. Planning Report — Tscherne PDA March 28, 2006 Paize 2 EXISTING CONDITIONS The single family home built in 1993 is located about 50 feet from the cul-de-sac near the southwest corner of the lot. A fence extends from the north-east corner of the garage, around the entire backyard and reconnects with the southeast corner of the house: The applicant has three dogs in her home. The City of Eagan Animal Control Officer has visited the site and she reports that the dogs are all well -cared, the animal rooms are spotless, and that there have not been any reported traffic issues SURROUNDING USES The site is surrounded by single family homes, zoned PD and guided LD, and I -35E. EVALUATION OF REQUEST Code Requirements — The property is zoned PD Planned Development. Section 11.67 states in part, "uses approved and permitted under a planned development shall only include permitted, conditional and accessory uses allowed in residential districts in the city and those business, industry and institutional uses specifically approved as part of the planned development and in accordance with standards herein provided." r Planning Report — Tscherne PDA March 28, 2006 Page 3 Section 6.38 City, Code defines a kennel as "any place, building, tract of land, abode or vehicle, wherein or whereon a total of four or more dogs, cats, ferrets, or rabbits or combination thereof, over six months of age, are kept, kept for sale, or boarded." Additionally, a license is required to operate or maintain a kennel. The license requirements and other City Code provisions relate specifically to the operations and conditions in which the animals are kept. If approved, .the City Code requires an administrative kennel license (in addition to the Planned Development Amendment). Therefore, there will be regular inspections by the Animal Control Officer for the annual kennel permit. Proposal — The applicant states that she cares for no more. than 4 outside dogs at any given time. She further states that she would not need to change anything on her property, physically or structurally, if the request is `granted. The request is not for a full-time kennel operation but, rather, she cares for dogs only as needed by their owners. The dogs she cares for are primarily geriatric or special needs dogs that require, among other things, medication, special diets, and' special attention or those that are emotionally challenged. The applicant's narrative states: "This work is my life,. my passion, and my formal training and education. By you allowing me to occasionally baby-sit a few special needs dogs; I feel that I am contributing greatly to the public's need for a safe, healthy, place to leave your dog which hopefully leaves you with a total piece of mind. I am 52 years old and everything I have done in my life prior to now, has led me to this point. I welcome any restrictions; visitations by city officials, and annual renewal." Numerous neighbors have written letters (attached) on behalf of the applicant. Site Plan — The applicant's home is not designed, or setup, for a standard kennel operation. Ms. Tscherne has 2 bedrooms in her home reserved for visiting dogs. Each bedroom contains at least one twin -sized mattress that lies on the ground to allow the dogs a comfortable place to relax. The rooms are decorated in an animal motif and include food and water dishes, toys, treats, and even cable television. The back yard is completely fenced in with a large, wooden, privacy fence to allow the dogs room to run and exercise. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Lesley Tscherne is requesting the approval of a Planned Development Amendment to allow a kennel on the 1/2 acre lot located at 3812 Blackhawk Ridge Place. A kennel is required, by City Code, to house more than four dogs at any one property. Ms. Tscheme has three dogs of her own and she would like to continue providing occasional dog "babysitting" services at her home. ��A. dp Planning Report — Tscherne PDA March 28, 2006 Page 4 As proposed, the applicant would be caring for no more than 4 guest dogs at any one time, most of which are special needs pets that require a high level of care and would not function well in a traditional kennel environment. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Planned Development. Amendment to allow a kennel on property located at 3812 Blackhawk Ridge Place in the SE corner of section 16. If approved the following conditions shall apply: 1. The Planned Development Amendment Agreement shall be recorded against the property at Dakota County. 2. The premises are allowed no more than four (4) guest dogs at any one time. 3. The applicant must maintain a current kennel license issued by the City. 4. No full-time boarding of animals for commercial purposes may occur on this property. 5. The operations of the kennel must comply with the standards in Chapter 10 of the City Code regarding the keeping of animals..

They are primarily geriatric, elderly or with special needs, be it physical or mental. I actually have been doing this for a little over a year without realizing this would constitute running a "kennel". A "Good Samaritan" felt the need to inform the City of Eagan of my occasional caring for dogs and that's why I'm here before you now. • There is no time line because nothing at all needs to change from how my home is now. • The. existing, land use of the subject property is "planned development" or "my home". My house is 3200 sf sitting on almost a'/2 acre of land contained within a wooden privacy fence. The majority of my Land backs up to 35E. • My home is in a planned development. There are 16 homes within 350 feet of my property. Seven of these homes are actually in an entirely different cul de sac but happen to shoot off the back of my back yard. • The impact of this planned development amendment will not change one thing to the surrounding area. Nothing will change physically or structurally if this request is granted. Everything will be the same as it has been since I moved in in 1997. My property borders 35E on the entire back of my home. I live on a quiet cul de sac with Blackhawk Lake directly behind the houses across the cul de sac. I have included letters from my immediate neighbors stating that this would not be a problem or ever has been. These dogs lounge very comfortably within one of my 2 guest bedrooms. ( letters and photos inclosed) • The impact of this planned development amendment is nil. Not one thing will change the ,st blest property itself. It will be as it has been for the last 9 years. • In regards to your question of the -impact of this planned development amendment on city services such as sewer, water, storm water run-off and roads is ZERO. Nothing is affected. • In regards to the question of whether this proposed land use amendment would result in better use of the land, I definitely feel that helping a couple of elderly or special needs dogs in a quiet, loving, knowledgeable environment, couldn't be anything but a "better" use of 2 spare bedrooms in a big, empty house I have never, ever had one animal related complaint filed against me. Thank you for your attention RECEIVED FEB 152006 u -Written -narrative concisely-describing_the_"publlc_beriefit" of the proposed amendment How many of you have or know of a dog that is either: • elderly, geriatric or just on in years ? • physically challenged in some way be it blind, deaf, or could even have something as common as hip dysplasia and needs help walking or just getting around? • has anxiety issues and needs special attention and comfort? • needs ear or eye ointment daily or is taking daily pills ? has an ongoing chronic illness such as Pancreantitus, Addison's, Cushings disease? • very sensitive or in an emotional state that leaving it alone in a traditional kennel would mentally or physically end up traumatizing them? What I have done is opened the two guest bedrooms in my home to a small number of dogs. (4 max.) They are usually owned by my neighbors, friends or relatives. The people that ask for my help greatly fear leaving their pets behind when they need to travel for personal, business or inevitable family emergencies. (hospitalization, family crisises). I have made these rooms as safe, sanitary and comfortable as possible. They include human beds along with puffy dog beds. They have color television with cable. It is not unusual for me to talk with these parents daily regarding the health of their dogs. When I watch a dog for you, it has my full attention. I do special diets. I lifts and carry the lame ones outside. I nurture and love the emotionally challenged ones. I administer daily medicines and frequently care for them late at night when no one is around in a conventional kennel situation. Being I only baby sit a couple of dogs, bordetella or kennel cough is unheard of when they stay with me. Sometimes, the dog is not the issue as much as the owners. When family emergencies or medical crisises arise, giving proper notice at a traditional kennel can be a problem. I am always flexible and ready to help in these situations. Frequently in an emergency, I will drive to pick up these dogs allowing the parents to attend to and concentrate on their crisis. Please understand, I am not asking to run a kennel operation. I am not asking to allow dogs to run wild and bark in my back yard. My caregiving is the total opposite of that. I am only asking your permission to allow me to care for a few special dogs (only 2 families) in the privacy of my home. I have never had a noise complaint. I have never had a feces complaint.. I have a Y2 acre of land that is fenced and live on a quiet cul de sac backing up to 35E. Most of my neighbors never even knew what I did until I told them. Then, they would ask me to help their dog. From 1995 to 1999, 1 created and ran one of the most well established and respected dog facilities in the country. (Silver Dog Bed and Biscuit) This work is my life, my passion and my formal training and education. By you allowing me to occasionally babysit a few special needs dogs, I feel that am contributing greatly to the publics need for a safe, healthy place to leave your dog which hopefully leaves you with total "peace of mind". I am 52 years old and everything I have done in my life prior to now has led me to this point. I welcome any restrictions, visitations by city officials, and annual renewal.

MENDOTA HEIGHTS, MN 55118 PHONE 651-457-2425 January 24, 2006 To Whom it may concern, Lesley Tscherme has cared for our dog, Huey, for the last two years when we have been out of town. Prior to this, Huey stayed with my parents who took care of him when we were gone. In October 2003 1 lost both of my parents in one week so I had no one else to take him. It has been a blessing to us to have Lesley to take him. Huey is a ten year old Skye terrier. This is a fairly rare breed and he was quite an expensive pet to buy. Huey requires very special care for a severe health condition. He is afflicted by Addison's disease, which is the total absence of adrenal function. In other words his adrenal glands can not produce glucocorticoids or mineral corticoids whcih are essential to life itself. Because of this illness he needs to take prednisone every day and sees the veterinarian once monthly for injections of desoxycorticosterone. Huey also has protein losing enteropathy and has to be kept on a fairly strict diet. Lesley is able to make sure he has his medication and special diet every day. We feel very confident that his health needs are being met when he stays at her house. He is comfortable there. Stress in a dog with Addison's disease can lead to an Addisonian crisis which is life threatening. He would do poorly in a kennel where he would not get the tender care that Lesley provides. I don't know what we would do if she was unable to take Huey into her home. Please contact me if I can be of further assisstance. Sincerely, Monica J.

There has been absolutely no disruption in our cul-de-sac from either traffic or barking. Lesley is a great care giver of animals and has personally helped us out in situations where we have asked her to let our dog out during. the day.

We need you to know that Lesley occasionally baby sitting a dog or two, has NEVER adversely affected us. We have never experienced additional traffic. We have never, heard any barking. We have never seen feces in either her front yard or back yard. (which we have a perfect view of from our deck!) We no longer have a dog but when we did, Lesley was always ready to help us out when we needed her. Our dog was elderly and was on daily medicine. The fact that she desperately cares about the welfare of these special pets was always very reassuring when we had to leave him. We sincerely hope she is allowed to continue.

Ever since Lesley moved in we have known about her love of dogs.' She has two dogs of her own and occasionally baby sits dogs of others. Many of the dogs she baby sits are those of neighbors, or those in need of special care. There has never been a problem with noise or traffic in our cul-de-sac due to Lesley. She has a very nice setup for any dog, with high privacy fences and a well maintained yard. In fact you would probably not even know there were dogs on the premises. We sincerely believe that Lesley is providing a benefit to those who need a baby sitter for their dog.

COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN AMENDMENT AND REZONING - SUNRISE PROPERTIES ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To direct that a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from LD, Low Density residential to HD, High Density residential, upon approximately 5.1 acres located northwest of Hwy. 13 and Silver Bell Road be submitted to the Metropolitan Council for review and approval (OR direct preparation of findings for denial). REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: At least four votes. FACTS: ➢ The site consists of two unplatted.parcels comprising 5.1 acres and containing an existing single-family home which was constructed in 1966. ➢ The property is surrounded by single-family, multiple -family and industrial uses. ➢ The property is heavily wooded with a ravine along the west edge of the site. ➢ This site sits adjacent to property of Metropolitan Council Environmental Services,, on which Kennealy Creek and an extensive wetland area exist. ➢ Development of this site raises issues with tree removal, potential for erosion, and protection of sensitive natural resources nearby. ➢ The site is located within the one -mile buffer area of the 60 dB contour, placing it within Airport Noise Policy Zone 4.. Shared -entry multi -family residential dwellings are anticipated to be a provisional use within the Buffer Zone. As such, sound attenuation construction standards will apply. Public street access to the site is currently provided via Wuthering Heights- Road. ➢ The Applicant's concept plan shows access via private street easements over other private property. This is not consistent with City Code. Access should be provided via public street. ➢ If access is provided via Wuthering Heights Road, it would need to be upgraded to current City standards with concrete curb and gutter and bituminous paving. ➢ The proposed HD land use designation allows 12+ units per acre. ➢ The proposed R-4 zoning is consistent with the HD land use designation. ➢ The APC held a public hearing on March 28, 2006 and recommended approval of the Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment and denial of the Rezoning to R-4. The APC stated that PD zoning would be more appropriate given the sensitive nature of the site and the issues concerning access. ISSUES: ➢ Surrounding industrial and other multi -family development in the area, as well as the airport noise compatibility guidelines, support the proposed change to a land use designation of HD. ➢ Since Comprehensive Guide Plan amendments are subject to review and approval of the Metropolitan Council, formal action on the associated Rezoning will be withheld until the Metropolitan Council has responded to the proposed Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment. It is still appropriate for the Council to comment on the proposed Rezoning from A to R-4 at this time. ➢ Given the sensitive physical characteristics -- trees, topography and proximity to a sensitive wetland and the Minnesota River flats -- as well as the applicant's desire to utilize new driveway accesses via private easements rather than the existing public street access, the APC stated that a PD, Planned Development zoning would be more appropriate than the proposed R-4.

Rezoning from A, Agriculture, to R-4, Residential Multiple, upon approximately 5.1 acres Iodated northwest of Hwy. 13 and Silver Bell Road in the SE'/a of Section 18. AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment: The city's Comprehensive Guide Plan was prepared pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 473.864. As defined by statute, the Land. Use Plan is 'a guide and may be amended from time to time as conditions change. The city's Guide Plan is to be implemented by official controls such as zoning and other fiscal devices. The creation of land use districts and zoning is a formulation of public policy and a legislative act. As such, the classification of land uses must reasonably relate to promoting the public health, safety, morals and general welfare. When a change to a city's Comprehensive Guide Plan is requested, it is the city's responsibility to' determine if the change is in the best long-range interests of the city. The standard of review of a city's action in approving or denying a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment is whether there exists a rational basis. A rational basis standard has been described to mean having legally sufficient reasons supportable by the facts which promote the general health, safety and welfare of the city. Planning Report = Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 2 Rezoning: City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subd. 5 states in part, 1. The provisions of this chapter may be amended by the majority vote of the council, except that amendments changing the regulations of any district may only be made by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the council. 2. The City Council shall not rezone any land or area in any zoning district or make any other proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance without first having referred it to the planning commission for its consideration and recommendation. BACKGROUND/HISTORY Histo . — The single-family residential neighborhood which includes this site was initially within Cedar Grove Special Area #5 as designated in the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan, and the Cedar Grove Redevelopment District. The City adopted policies for Special Area #5 and for the Cedar Grove Redevelopment that would prevent further subdivision of land and construction of new single-family homes in this area. Based on the request of the neighborhood, the City later adjusted the boundaries of the Special Area and Cedar Grove Redevelopment District to exclude the residential neighborhood, however, staff believes the adopted policies remain valid. Area Development — The site is surrounded by a variety of different uses. Public Facilities to the west, industrial to the north and east, multiple residential to the south, and single-family residential to the west. Zonin — The property is currently zoned A, Agriculture. The property had a variety of zoning designations throughout the 1960s and early 1970s. Between 1960 and 1974 the zoning included industrial, single-family residential, residential 4-plex and residential multiple. In 1974 the property was zoned single-family residential which it remained until 1981 when the zoning was changed to Agriculture. The property is currently zoned Agriculture. Comprehensive Land Use Plan — The City's Comprehensive Guide Plan currently designates the property for LD, Low Density residential use. In 1974, the land use designation was R -M, Mixed Residential (3-6 units/acre), and in 1980, it changed to Industrial. With the update of the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan in 2001; at the request of the residential neighborhood, the City achieved consistency between the land use and zoning of the residential neighborhood -- including this property -- by changing the land use designation from Limited Industrial to LD, Low Density residential; the adjacent apartments to the south were designated HD, High Density residential: EXISTING CONDITIONS The site consists of two unplatted parcels and contains a single-family home which was constructed in 1966. The property is heavily wooded with significant variations in topography. 10 Planning Report = Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 3 SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the subject property: Existing Use North Seneca Plant South Apartments/Lo East Industrial Northwest/ Vacant/Single- Southwest family EVALUATION OF REQUEST Proposal I-1, Limited Industrial R-4, Multiple Residential I-1, Limited Industrial PF, Public Facilities/ R-1, Single Family Residential Land Use Designation IND, Limited Industrial HD, High Density residential IND, Limited Industrial QP, Quasi -Public/ LD, Low Density residential The applicant, Sunrise Properties, proposes to change the land use designation from LD, Low Density residential to HD, High Density residential upon approximately 5.1 acres located at 2101 Wuthering Heights Road. A Rezoning of the property from A, Agriculture, to, R-4, Residential Multiple is also proposed. The HD land use designation allows for gross residential densities of 12+ units per acre. The R-4 zoning requires a minimum lot area per unit of 2,750 sq. ft. for buildings containing more than 6 units. The R-4 lot requirement of 2,750 sq. ft. per unit results in a density of 15.8 units per acre.' The Concept Plan submitted by the applicant shows a four-story 107 -unit apartment building on the 5.1 -acre site. The Concept Plan includes an adjacent 1.7 -acre parcel to the south which would be used for ponding and access. The adjacent parcel is currently guided HD and zoned R-4 and thus, does not require the same land use amendment or rezoning. In support of the land use and zoning change for the 5:1 -acre site, the applicant's narrative states it is their intent "to provide multiple family housing, while minimizing the impact to adjacent single family residences." The narrative further states that because of recent office/warehouse development to the north, apartment/condominium development to the southeast, and the recent opening of Runway 17/35 at the MSP airport, "the site's continued use as single family i. residential is not compatible with these uses." The applicant's narrative indicates the following reasons the proposed land use and zoning amendments result in abetter use of the land: a) "multiple. family housing is the highest and best use of the land;" b) "it will have a significant impact on the redevelopment of the area"; c) it "will provide positive economic benefits to the residents of Eagan"; and d) "it will provide work force housing for the nearby employment centers." "Im Planning Report_.- Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 4 Environmental Impacts Topogaphy — The site is heavily wooded and generally slopes to the northwest. A heavily wooded ravine extends along the west edge of ,the site. The ravine has steep slopes with significant natural resource considerations, including tree preservation and impacts to downstream property. This ravine is directly above the Minnesota River flats, and appears to be highly susceptible to erosion., The ravine should be subject to stringent temporary and permanent erosion control measures with any type of land use and development. The preliminary concept plan submitted shows potential development within the; southern portion of the ravine area. Given the significant natural resources within and downstream from the development site, consideration should be given to limiting development to outside the ravine area. Storm Drainage — Development of this site will require the construction of storm water ponding to control rate of runoff and for water quality purposes. TreesNegetation —Development of this site will be subject to conditions of the City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance (City Code Chapter 11, Section 11. 10, Subd. 15.1). According to City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance, allowable removal of significant vegetation for this type of development (multiple -lot, multi -unit residential) is set at 47.5%. Tree removal exceeding the allowable limit is an exception to the ordinance. In that event, the developer must demonstrate "practical difficulties or practical hardships result[ing] from strict compliance." The developer will need to submit a Significant Tree/Woodland Inventory and Tree Preservation Plan at the time of building permit application. If removal exceeds the allowable limit, mitigation is required in compliance with the Tree Preservation Ordinance. In that event, a Tree Mitigation Plan demonstrating compliance with mitigation requirements will also be necessary. The applicant acknowledges that "significant grading and tree removal will likely occur on the property in order to meet its intended multi -family use." and that the adjacent 1.7-acres,"could provide an area for tree mitigation, if needed." Wetlands/Wildlife — Because of the steep slopes on the property and potential for erosion as a result of construction, it may be appropriate to have the proposed development reviewed by the Lower Minnesota River Watershed District, in which the property lies. There are no jurisdictional wetlands on the property; however, this site sits adjacent to immediately adjacent to property of Metropolitan Council Environmental Services, on which Kennealy Creek and an extensive wetland area exist. Water Ouality — Because of the size of the proposed development, stormwater treatment ponding would be required at the time of development and is expected to meet a majority of Eagan's water quality requirements. Airport Noise Considerations — The City of Eagan considered airport noise as a factor in its Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan. The Metropolitan Council has adopted an Aviation Chapter Planning Report — Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 5 in its Transportation Policy Plan that anticipates the impacts from the continue(. operauan of u70 airport at its current location. Historically, the City has attempted, where possible, to minimize land uses that would be in conflict with operations at MSP. The City's adopted Comprehensive Guide Plan currently designates the area as LD, Low Density residential. The site is located 3.5 miles south of the north -south runway at MSP, adjacent to the arrival and departure flight track for that runway. Based on the Metropolitan Council Policy Contours adopted in 1996, the site is located within the one -mile buffer area of the 60 dB contour, placing it within Noise Policy Zone 4. The Met Council has recently adopted new land use compatibility guidelines, which incorporate the 2007 Noise Policy Contours. Under the new guidelines it -is anticipated that shared -entry multi -family residential dwellings will be a provisional use within the Buffer Zone. This property is located within Airport Noise Policy Zone 4. With the opening of the new North- South runway at MSP in Fall 2005, this property experienced increased exposure to aircraft overflights. Architectural designs and construction methods for construction of a shared -entry multi -family building should incorporate sound attenuation standards sufficient to achieve an interior sound level of 45 dBA. Infrastructure Impacts Access — The subject site is not land -locked; public street access is, and should continue to be, provided via Wuthering Heights Road. However, the applicant does not propose to. utilize the existing public street. The Concept Plan shows driveway accesses at two locations, both via private easement across adjacent properties. This request could be accommodated through a Variance (with a demonstrated hardship) or Planned Development zoning: The applicant has indicated that there is currently a private easement across the existing apartment complex property at 2099 Silver Bell Road. The other proposed access onto Kennebec Drive will require the acquisition by the applicant of a private easement across Lot 1, Block 1 Cedar Bluffs Business Center (3711 Kennebec Drive), a recently constructed office/ warehouse facility. The City Code does not allow for parcels where access is provided only by private streets. While the'applicant has indicated "impacts to the [single-family] residential neighborhood to the west will be minimized,by prohibiting access to the residential street," this street, Wuthering Heights Road, is the galpublic street frontage available to the site. The concept plan submitted does not depict access to Wuthering Heights Road, a rural -section gravel road within public right-of-way south of the site. Public street access to development of thissite should be via Wuthering Heights Road. If access is provided onto Wuthering Heights Road, the entire length of street from Silver Bell Road would need to be upgraded to current City standards with concrete curb and gutter, storm sewer, and bituminous paving. IVA Planning Report — Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 . Page 6 Fire/Emerjgency Access — The Fire Marshal has indicated that any multi -family development on this site will need to provide emergency drive lanes such that access is provided, at a minimum, to within 150 feet of all points of the building. The developer should be aware of this as it may require additional grading on the northwest side of the building to accommodate such an emergency access, and may increase site disturbance, tree loss and potential for erosion. Utilities — Water main and sanitary sewer service is readily available to serve development of the property. Comprehensive Land Use Impacts Historically, this site has been zoned for residential use since the 1960s. The most recent update to the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan designated this site for LD, Low Density, residential development (0-4 units per acre). The site is adjacent to a variety of other uses — single-family residential, multi -family residential and limited industrial. The proposed multi -family use of the property would be an extension of existing multi -family development to the south, and a contrast to the existing single-family homes to the west. The existing apartment buildings are three -stories in height. The proposed high density use is compatible with land use policies relative to the airport and noise exposure. School System This property is located in ISD 4191 and would be served by Sioux Trail Elementary (Burnsville), Metcalf Junior High School, (Eagan), and Burnsville Senior High School (Burnsville). The district indicated approximately. 32 students would be anticipated from a multiple family development on this property, as opposed to approximately 27 students if the property redeveloped as single-family. Parks and Recreation System Neighborhood Parks System — The designated neighborhood park serving this area is Woodhaven Park. Woodhaven Park is located southeast of Hwy. 13 at Cedar Grove Parkway and Gold Trail. The Silver Bell Road and Hwy. 13 intersection is a controlled intersection with an at -grade pedestrian crossing. This site is also in close proximity to the State Park along the Minnesota River which provides access to walking and bicycle trails as well a boat access to the river. In addition to these existing parks, the Advisory Parks and Recreation.Commission is reviewing whether additional parks and recreation needs should be incorporated into the Cedar Grove Redevelopment which may provide additional parks services for the area. Park and Trail Dedications — Not applicable since there is no subdivision application. 0 Planning Report — Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 7 Zoning Zoning, A rezoning to R-4 is proposed. This request is consistent with the proposed HD land use designation. While the applicant has provided a concept plan, there is no guarantee under R- 4 zoning that the concept plan is what will be developed on the site. Actual plans for building permit may be different, and provided such plans are in conformance with R-4 zoning and other ordinances, constructionwould be allowed to proceed. Given the sensitive physical characteristics -- trees, topography and proximity to a sensitive I etland and the Minnesota River flats -- as well as the applicant's desire to utilize new driveway accesses via private easements rather than the existing public street access, the applicant may want to consider a rezoning request to PD, Planned Development. The intent of Planned Development zoning is: a. Providing greater flexibility in environment design and relaxation of strict application of the zoning ordinance in exchange for greater creativity and environmental sensitivity. b. Recognizing the economic and cultural advantages. that will accrue to the residents of a planned community. c. Encouraging a more creative and efficient approach to the use of the land. d. Encouraging the preservation and enhancement of desirable site characteristics, natural features, and open space. e. Encouraging a development pattern that is consistent with the land use density, transportation facilities and community facilities objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.. Due to the significant natural features of the site and area and proposed private access, staff suggests a Planned Development (PD) zoning may be more appropriate. A PD zoning does not guarantee policy makers would approve private access; however, it would provide the City with significantly more control over the ultimate development and the sensitivity of same. Densit — The proposed R-4 zoning requires a minimum site size of 2,750 sq. ft. per unit. The two parcels which make up the development site total 6.8 acres. Applying the R-4 lot requirements of 2,750 sq. ft. per unit, a maximum of 107 units could be developed on the site; the concept plan shows a 107 -unit building. This translates into a density of 15.7 units per acre. Recreation Space Required — The. City's zoning ordinance requires that multiple -family dwelling complexes "shall have a minimum recreation area equal to 200 sq. ft. for each dwelling unit containing two or fewer bedrooms and 100 additional square feet for each dwelling unit containing more than two bedrooms. Said recreation area shall be a minimum of 100 feet from any ponding area." Based on the concept plan, submitted by the applicant, a total of 20,110 square feet of recreation area must be provided with the development. Evaluation of specific development plans for compliance with the recreation space ordinance will be done at the time of building permit application. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Planning Report — Sunrise Properties March 28, 2006 Page 8 Sunrise Properties is proposing a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from LD, Low Density residential to HD, High Density residential, and a Rezoning from A, Agriculture, to R-4, Residential Multiple, upon approximately 5.1 acres of land north of Hwy. 13 and west of Silver Bell Road. The applicant anticipates developing the site in conjunction with adjacent property to the southeast which is currently guided HD and zoned R-4, resulting in a development site of 6.8 acres. Surrounding industrial and other multi -family development in the area, as well as the airport noise compatibility guidelines, support the proposed change to a land use designation of HD and zoning designation of R-4. However, any development of the property will raise concerns about site disturbance, grading in areas of steep slopes, tree removal, and the potential for erosion and. detrimental impacts to nearby sensitive natural resources (e.g. river, fen). This combined with the developer's_ desire to provide access only using private streets via private easements, suggest that the City and/or the developer consider modifying the rezoning request to PD, Planned Development, which allows for greater flexibility in the application of the ordinance in exchange for greater creativity and environmental sensitivity. Staff believes public access to the proposed development is appropriate and, further, that the Planning Commission and City Council should consider that the time has come to upgrade Wuthering Heights Road to City standards, if development of the subject site occurs. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from LD, Low Density residential to HD, High Density residential, upon approximately 5.1 acres located northwest of Hwy. 13 and Silver Bell Road in the SE 1/4 of Section 18. To recommend approval of a Rezoning to change the zoning of the property from A, Agriculture, to R-4, Residential Multiple, residential, upon approximately 5.1 acres located northwest of Hwy. 13 and Silver Bell Road in the SE 1/4 of Section 18. 101 Eagan Boundary Right-ofway Lll—J�JJJ Parcei Area Park Area Building Footprint ® v .o Me V.&I maw mei.- JL 100D 0 1000 2000 Feet iiiiiiiiiiia Development/Developere Basset Property Application: Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment & Rezoning Case No.: 18 -CG -02-02-06 and 08-RZ-02-02-06 rimor N AAep Prepared using ERSI 110. 3.1.

The site's continued use as single family residential is not compatible with these uses. In requesting the change in zoning, we are addressing the following issues: What impact does the rezoning have on surrounding property and land uses? The change in zoning is compatible with the adjacent land uses and d zo on . kering Heights RoadThe residential Property , to the east could be adversely impacted by additional residential the only public right -of way accessing the site. What impact does the rezoning bave on the subject property? The construction of multiple family housing will have an impact on the site as it is currently used. The grading and removal of trees will visually change the character of the property. What impact does the rezoning have on City services, such as sewer, water, stormwater run-off and roads? The property is primarily an infill parcel and it is believed adequate city services are available and will have minimal impact on the City of Eagan. Does the requested land use proposed by the rezoning result in a better use of the land? est and best use of the land. Yes. We believe the zone change to multiple loP en of he ary housing is ea, and will provide positive economic . It will have a significant impact on the redevelopm benefits to the residents of Eagan. In addition, it will provide work force housing for the nearby em- ployment centers. Bassett Property SUNRISE PROPERTIES Page 7 LanA Use C , Plan The combined project area includes 5.11 acres of the Bassett property and 1.72 acres of prop- erty owned by Silverpines Acquisitions. The Silverpines property is currently zoned R-4. Ac- quisition cquisition of this property provides access to Silver Bell Road. In addition, acquisition of right -of -Way from the Cedar Bluffs Business Center to the east could provide public access to the site. The only public access to the site is Wuthering Heights Road, which enters the property from the west through an exist- ing xisting single family neighborhood. Access to the site through this road is discouraged in order to minimize traffic impacts on the neighborhood. We propose a residential development of apartments. -1 he multi -family use proposed for the site provides a transition and buffer to the adjacent light industrial uses and is compatible with the adjacent multi family uses. Impacts to the residential neighborhood to the west will be minimized by prohibiting ac cess to the residential street and by providing a landscape buffer to the adjacent single family home. Significant grading and tree removal will likely occur on the property in order to meet its intended multi -family use. The project will need to conform to Eagan Ordinance No. 217 2nd Series regarding tree preservation and mitigation. The Silverpi nes property could provide an area for tree mitigation, if needed. The project site lies within the MSP Noise Buffer Zone and multi -family is the preferred housing type.within this zone.

PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENT, FINAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AND FINAL PLAT — EAGAN HOSPITALITY GROUP, INC. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To approve (OR to direct preparation of findings for denial) a Planned Development Amendment to change the approved use from restaurants to hotel, upon approximately 3 acres located southwest of Lone Oak Road and Holiday Lane subject to the conditions in the APC minutes. To approve a Final Plat (Oakview Center 2nd Addition) combining two lots into a single parcel upon approximately 3 acres, located southwest of Lone Oak Road and Holiday Lane. To approve a Vacation drainage and utility easements for Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Oakview Center. REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: At least three votes. FACTS: The site is vacant and consists of two platted lots. ➢ The applicant is proposing a 4 -story 130 -room hotel. ➢ The site is located within the one -mile buffer area of the 60 dB contour, placing it within Airport Noise Policy Zone 4. Transient lodging is anticipated to be a provisional use within the Buffer Zone. As such, sound attenuation construction standards will apply. ➢ NB setback, lot coverage and dimensional standards are satisfied. ➢ With four stories the building height measures 50'8" to the mean roof height, and 58'8" at its highest point. This is comparable to the adjacent hotel to the west which measures 54'6" in height to the peak roof level. ➢ The building elevations have been corrected and will be brick and EIFS in a color scheme consistent with the approved Oakview Center materials. ➢ Parking is two stalls short of the required amount, and 9.5' wide stalls are proposed which is consistent with the Oakview Center PD. The public hearing for the Vacation of drainage and utility easements is scheduled earlier on this agenda. The vacation pertains to existing easements on the subject site, and new drainage and utility easements will be dedicated with the new plat. ➢ The Final Plat combines the two existing lots into a single parcel, and dedicates additional right-of-way for Lone Oak Road on the north side. The Final Plat dedicates new drainage and utility easements. 114 ➢ The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on March 28, 2006 and recommended approval of the PD Amendment and Final PD. ISSUES: ➢ The APC added conditions that a paved fire lane be provided on the north side of the building asrequired by the Fire Marshal, and that the development satisfy the minimum 30% green space. By providing the required 20' wide paved fire lane, green space on the site drops to about 25%. ➢ The applicant has been exploring ways to increase green space to compensate for the added pavement of the fire lane. They applicant reports that adding an island in the SE corner of the parking lot would gain about 800 sq. ft. of green space, and another 2,000 sq. ft. can be, gained by reducing parking stall width to 9.0'. Even with these changes, the site remains at about 27.5% green space. The latest information will be shared with the City Council on Tuesday night.

BACKGROUND/HISTORY Planning Report — Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 2 Oakview Center was platted in 1999 and the PreliminaryPlanned consists of 81ots.for the entire site The entire site was was approved at that time. The Oakview Center development graded and streets and utilities installed with the initial construction in 1999. Four of the lots have been developed — Holiday, McDonald's, a hotel and a retail strip center. The other four lots remain vacant. The two parcels that comprise the subject site are currently designated for Class I restaurants in the approved Preliminary Planned Development. EXISTING CONDITIONS The site -was previously graded and is vacant. There is no significant vegetation,on the site. SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and. comprehensive guide plan designations surround the subject property: A, Agriculture PD, Planned D A, Agriculture EVALUATION OF REQUEST Planned Land Use Designation SA/RC, Special Area/ Retail Commercial RC, Retail Commercial SA/RC, Special Area/ Retail Commercial RC.' Retail Commercial Compatibility with Surrounding Area — This site was considered a Neighborhood Business node when the Oakview Center development plan was proposed'in 1998. Under NB zoning, a hotel would not typically be allowed. Through the Planned Development zoning, specific uses were identified for all 8 lots in the development. One hotel was approved with the Preliminary Planned Development and was constructed on the adjacent property west of the subject site. The two parcels that comprise the subject site were designated for Class I restaurants. The proposed hotel use appears compatible with the surrounding uses. The single-family uses to the east and north are designated in the Comprehensive Plan to redevelop with retail commercial land uses, and such development is anticipated to be consistent with NB, Neighborhood . Business, zoning. There are no other residential uses in the area that may be sensitive to a hotel use in this location. A hotel was previously deemed*suitable for the adjacent property to the west. Other uses in the area include a Class H restaurant, convenience store, and multi -tenant retail building. Remaining vacant lots within Oakview Center are approved for professional office and a daycare. Airmort Noise Standards — The City of Eagan considered airport noise as a factor in its Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan.

Other uses in the area include a Class H restaurant, convenience store, and multi -tenant retail building. Remaining vacant lots within Oakview Center are approved for professional office and a daycare. Airmort Noise Standards — The City of Eagan considered airport noise as a factor in its Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan. The Metropolitan Council has adopted an Aviation Chapter Planning Report — Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 3 of its -Metropolitan Development Plan that anticipates the impacts from the continued operation of the airport at its current location. Based on the Metropolitan Council Policy Contours adopted in 1996, the site is located within the one -mile buffer area of the 60 dB contour, placing it within Noise Policy Zone 4. The Met Council has recently adopted new land use compatibility, guidelines, which incorporate the 2007 Noise Policy Contours. Under the new guidelines it is anticipated that transient lodging will be a provisional use within Zone 4. As such, it must comply with ceestructural r dig peso materials and rmance standards to be acceptable according to MS 473.192. In particular, materials construction should be such that they will insure an interior sound level of 50 dBA (provisional land use performance standards) as compared with a noise level of 64 DNL (based on tion of at the side boundary of the noise zone). This would require an inside noise level 4 dBA. Site Plan — The Site Plan shows a four-story 130 -unit hotel building on the northern portion n of the site, with parking on the south east and west sides of the building. The building's entrance faces south and has a drive -under canopy for check -ins and drop-offs. The trash enclosure is attached to the west side of the principal building. Access sisproposed ed driveway from Courthouse Lane to the across from Holiday Lane to the south, an with the existing hotel to the west. opment deviation from typical zoning bulk standards may Bulk Standards — As a Planned Devel be allowed. Setbacks — The building is situated in the center of the site. It is placed at the minimum required 50 -foot setback from Lone Oak Road, and �tA lines. Minimum Parking setbacks are proposed to be 20 feet from all public street fire lane is proposed along the north side of the building and is set back more than 20 feet from Lone Oak Road. These setbacks are consistent with ordinance requirements. Building Coverage — The proposed building coverage is 18%. This is consistent with typical commercial district zoning standards which allow 20% - 30% coverage. Building Height — The Zoning Code does.not establish a maximum height requirement for Planned Developments. The proposed four-story hotel, measures 50'8" to the mean roof height, and 588" at its highest point, as shown on the Exterior Elevations Plan. This amount is comparable to the adjacent hotel to the west which measures 54'6" in height to the peak roof level. Building heights that exceed the maximum requirements of the City Code (30'-35' in commercial zoning de P wed Development however, the) are normally handled as itional use proposed permits (CUP). Under the terms of th building height can be accommodated without a separate CUP process. Green Space — The site data indicates green space of 31.4%. Commercial development is typically required to provide a minimum of 30%. The applicant is proposing to construct the fire' lane along the north side of the building using grass pavers to satisfy green space requirements. Es Planning Report— Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 4 The pavers will support the weight of emergency vehicles if necessary, but allow turf grass to grow and do not create additional runoff. Parkin — City Code requires that parking be provided in the amount of one stall for each room plus one stall for each 8 rooms. This calculates to a minimum required parking amount of 146 stalls. The applicant is proposing 144 surface parking stalls. Parking stalls are proposed to be 9.5 feet wide by 19 feet deep; two-way driving aisles are proposed to be 24 feet wide. While stall width is less than the I 0 -foot hemPmcurrently l urinary Planned required by City Code, it exceeds the 9 -foot width that was approved m t Development and was utilized in the prior Oakview Center developments. In addition, the applicant's narrative states that the dedication of additional right -of --way to Dakota County for Lone Oak Road reduced the size of the site, making it more difficult to fully meet the parking standards. Landscaping — The Landscape Plan appears to be acceptable. A variety of deciduous, evergreen and ornamental trees are proposed, with shruand Shade trees are proposed on the north side of from the public rights-of-way appears acceptable. the building. Because of the water main in this area, the planshould be reviewed to ensure no large growth materials conflict with the water line and easement restricted along the south edgeofhe substitutions operiy due todbe the made if necessary. Planting is also restn g presence of a gas line easement. Staff has some concern with the use of shrubs in the parking lot islands. Shrubs are susceptible to damage from snow storage and thus can be difficult to maintain in an attractive and healthy condition. Staff suggests that more perennials be used in these areas because they are dormant in the winter and are not as affected by snow storage. The applicant should have the landscape architect review the plan to determine if a more suitable material can be used in the islands. Building Elevations/Architecture — The Preliminary Planned Development included four packages of building materials and color combinations for use within the Oakview Center development. The applicant is proposing to use synthetic stone and two colors of EIFS. This is not consistent with the architectural materials specified in the Preliminary Planned Development, which call for brick, decorative block, and EIFS. Synthetic stone is not anapproved building material in this Planned Development and the applicant also did not identify colors for the various materials. To be consistent with the Oakview Center architectural standards, the elevations should be revised to utilize brick and decorative block in place of the synthetic stone. The proposed building architecture is four-story 130 -unit hotel with a peaked roof line. The building design does provide variations in materials to create both horizontal and vertical elements. The long roof line is interrupted with 4 roof peaks on the front and two on the back. The plans show divided windows which add visual interest. Site Lighting — City Code requires that on-site lighting be provided as is necessary for security, safety and traffic circulation. Illumination shall be indirect and diffused or shielded. Lighting VL\ Planning Report — Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 5 shall not be directed upon public rights-of-way or adjacent properties and the source of light shall not be visible from off the property. The Preliminary Planned Development included a Site Lighting plan. The approved site lighting uses 400 watt metal halide pole -mounted fixtures for parking lot lighting. Site lighting is mounted lights with 400 watt metal halide flat lens shoebox proposed through free-standing pole- . type fixtures. These fixtures are to be mounted on 20' poles within the parking lot. The other Oakview Center buildings have used different fixtures, but are 400 watt metal halide and are shielded and downcast. Thus the proposed parking lot light fixture is consistent with the other buildings in this development, however, the proposed mounting height is lower at 20', the other parking lights are mounted at 25'. For consistency throughout the Planned Development, the pole -mounted fixtures should be mounted at 25. The photometric plan shows acceptable light levels. Light levels achieve a minimum of 0.5 footcandles within the parking lots, with a high of 11.2 footcandles and an average of 3.41 footcandles. Light levels at the property lines are 0.3 footcandles. The average to minimum ratio. is 3.4, suggesting fairly uniform light levels throughout the parking lot. Security lighting on the building utilizes 175 watt metal halide fixtures mounted on the exterior of the building, and recessed beneath the entrance canopy. Sinae —The Comfort Suites is proposing building signage above the main entrance. No monument sign is proposed. The Preliminary Planned Development agreement provided for individual lot monument signs. While this site is comprised of two lots, the developer proposes to combine them into a single parcel with one building. Thus, the City Code allows only one free-standing sign per building. Any monument sign must comply with the design criteria of the Preliminary Planned Development which is an internally illuminated sign panel on a brick base. The approved sign dimension for this site is a 5' high by 12'6" wide sign panel with a 3' high brick base. All free- standing signs must be set back a minimum of 10 feet from all property lines. The brick sign base was based on the brick materials for the principal building. If City officials determine that this building may utilize synthetic stone, then any monument sign should have a base constructed of the same materials used for the principal building. The Oakview Center Preliminary Planned Development also included approval of a shopping center pylon sign on the southeast corner of this site. The developer is proposing that the shopping center pylon sign envisioned in the Preliminary Planned Development be eliminated. Because the Preliminary Planned Development did not specify requirements for building signage, building signage is subject to compliance with City Sign Code requirements. Gradin/ Topog aphy — The site was graded with previous development in the area and is generally open and slopes to the south. The proposed building grade is about level. with the Planning Report — Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 5 elevation of adjacent Lone Oak Road. Landscape berms to help screen parking areas should be provided within the parking setback areas, where possible. Storm Drainage — Storm sewer drainage is available via existing stone sewer pipe and pond (Pond GP -11) to the southeast of the site. Utilities — Existing sanitary, sewer,and water main of sufficient size,aepth, and capacity axe available from Courthouse Lane for connection by thus development Streets/ Access/ Circulation — Street access is proposed at two locations, one as the of the site; h leg of the the Holiday Lane/ Courthouse Lane intersection, in the south-central portion other through a connection to the existing parking lot for the adjacent hotel lot to the west. A fire lane is required and has been provided on the north side o f t e h am Bred g. Wy overhead le the site is adjacent to a public street, emergency access to the building p utility lines. The developer is proposing to utilize grass pavers for this fire lane. The Fire Marshal has indicated that the grass pavers are not acceptable for emergency access because they are usually not cleared to afford emergency access during the winter months. The fire lane on the north side should be constructed of bituminous, asphalt with concrete curb and gutter. Pedestrian circulation in the area is provided by sidewalks and trails on Courthouse Lane and allows for pedestrian connections between the lots within Oakview Center. Easements/ Permits/ Right -of -Way — The developer should provide evidence of ingress/ ngr a s/o gr eess n a easement with the property to the west, allowing for the proposed serve form acceptable to the City Attorney. Wetlands/ . ater Quality — There are no jurisdictional wetlands on the site. Water quality requirements for this site were previously satisfied with the first phase of the Oakview Center development. Tree Preservation — This site is responsible for three Category B trees to fulfill its share of the tree mitigation obligation for Oakview Center. Parks and Recreation — This development is responsible for cash park and trail dedications due at the time of building permit at the rates then in effect. The 2006 rates are $5,790.00 per acre for parks and $1,251.00 per acre for trails. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Badger Midwest is proposing to amend the Preliminary Planned Development for Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Oakview Center by changing the approved use from two restaurants to one hotel. The proposed hotel is four -stories and 130 rooms. The use appears compatible with surrounding uses; however, the proposal includes some deviations from development standards in the Preliminary Planned Development and from typical commercial zoning standards. It is a policy {24 Planning Report = Comfort Suites March 28, 2006 Page 7 matter for City officials to determine whether the proposed change in use is acceptable and whether to accept the proposed deviations as part of the Planned Development approval -- building height of 50'8"; use of different architectural materials than specified in the Preliminary Planned Development; 9.5parking stalls; and elimination of the center pylon sign. While this proposal amends the prior Preliminary Planned Development for this site, developer will Planned Development will be required prior to issuance of a building pe need to review and revise the final plans to be consistent with and to provide any additional 'information called for in the conditions of approval of this amendment.

REZONING PRELIMINARY PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AND PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION — REVESTORS ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To approve (OR to direct preparation of findings for denial) a Rezoning from NB to PD for a mixed commercial retail/office development upon approximately 9.82 acres located SE of Red Pine Lane and Hwy. 3. To approve (OR to direct preparation of findings for denial) a Preliminary Planned Development for a mixed commercial retail/office development, upon approximately 9.82 acres located SE of Red Pine Lane and Hwy. 3, subject to the conditions listed in the APC minutes. To approve (OR to direct preparation of findings for denial) a preliminary Subdivision to create two lots upon approximately 9.82 acres, with a Variance to allow a lot with <50' public street frontage, located SE of Red Pine Lane and Hwy. 3, subject to the conditions listed in the APC minutes. REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: At least three votes/majority of Councilrnembers present FACTS: ➢ The site is vacant and consists of two unplatted parcels and a remnant from the construction of Red Pine Lane. ➢ The site contains wooded areas and a wetland on the west edge; the site is separated from Hwy. 3 by railroad tracks. The existing building in the SW corner will be removed. ➢ Three buildings are proposed with a total of 78,406 sq. ft. Building A contains a bank with a drive-through, Building C contains the anchor tenant, a grocery store. ➢ Permitted uses in the NB district would be considered permitted and, save for the bank drive-thru and on -sale liquor in conjunction with a Class I restaurant requested at this time; any other conditional uses in NB zoning would require a PD Amendment. ➢ Primary access to the site is via Red Pine Lane, with a service drive from Gun Club Road. ➢ A portion of Gun Club Road is proposed to be vacated causing Lot 2 requiring a deviation for <50' frontage on a public street. ➢ Ponding is proposed in the SW comer of the site; rain gardens are proposed throughout the parking lot for conveyance and infiltration of runoff. ➢ De minimus wetland fill of —94 sq. ft. is proposed. ➢Building architecture is reflective of a railroad depot. Materials include limestone, brick, stone, glass and slate roofs. Building C, the southerly -most building, has two 142. architectural depot elements that exceed 30 feet in height; however, the predominant building height for each of the buildings is consistent with the 30' maximum height. ➢ A traffic study indicates that the proposed development will use the excess capacity of the signalized intersection of Red Pine Lane/Hwy. 3. As such, street improvements are conditioned as part of the approval to insure that the additional traffic will maintain an acceptable level of service. ➢ To accommodate ultimate development in the area, additional mitigative improvements to Hwy. 3/ Red Pine Lane may be necessary to maintain an acceptable level of service. The developer has petitioned a feasibility report to study roadway improvement needs. ➢ The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on March 28, 2006 and recommended approval of all action items. ISSUES: ➢ During the public hearing residents expressed concerns about traffic, safety, lighting, uses, pedestrian amenities, noise, and hours of operation.

AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW Subdivision: City Code Section 13.20 Subd., 6 states that "In the case of platting, the Planning Commission and the Council shall be guided by criteria, including the following, in approving, denying or establishing conditions related thereto: A. That the proposed subdivision does comply with applicable City Code provisions and the Comprehensive Guide Plan. B. That the design or improvement of the proposed subdivision complies with applicable plans of Dakota County, State .of Minnesota, or the Metropolitan Council. Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 2 C. That the physical characteristics of the site including, but not limited to, topography, vegetation, susceptibility to erosion and siltation, susceptibility to flooding, water storage and retention are such that the site is suitable for the type of development or use contemplated. D. That the site physically is suitable for the proposed density of development. E. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvement is not likely to cause environmental damage. F. That the design of the ' subdivision or the type of improvements is not likely to cause health problems. G. That the design of the subdivision or the improvements will not conflict with easements of record or with easements established by judgment of court. H. That completion of the proposed development of the subdivision can be completed in a timely manner so as not to cause an economic burden upon the City for maintenance, repayment of bonds, or similar burden. I. That the subdivision has been properly planned for possible solar energy system use within the subdivision or as it relates to adjacent property. (Refer to City Handbook on Solar Access). J. That the design of public improvements for the subdivision is compatible and consistent with the platting or approved preliminary plat on adjacent lands. K. That the subdivision is in compliance with those standards set forth in that certain document entitled "City of Eagan Water Quality Management Plan for the Gun Club Lake Watershed Management Organization" which document is properly approved and filed with the office of the City Clerk hereinafter referred to as the "Water Quality Management Plan". Said document and all of the notations, references and other information contained therein shall have the same force and effect as if fully set down herein and is hereby made a part of this Chapter by reference and incorporated herein as fully as if set forth herein at length. 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. Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 3 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. 4. Encouraging the preservation and enhancement of desirable site characteristics, natural features, and open space. Encouraging a development pattern that is consistent with land use density, transportation facilities and community facilities objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. BACKGROUNWHISTORY The site consists of two unplatted parcels and A, small remnant parcel from the construction of Red Pine Lane. The smaller of the two parcels contains a concrete block building- which was constructed in 1970. The larger of the two parcels is vacant. The property is currently zoned NB, Neighborhood Business and is designated in the Comprehensive Guide Plan for Retail Commercial land uses. Prior to 1994-95, the property was guided in the Comp Plan for residential uses. In 1980, the land use designation was R -II, Mixed Residential 3-6 units/acre. By 1988, the land use designation of the entire area east of Hwy. 3 and south of Cliff Road was changed to DJ, Single- family residential 0-3 units/acre. During the 1970s and 1980s, several industrial buildings were constructed in the adjacent Halley's Addition. Following a study of the area in 1994-95, the land use designation of the subject site and the adjacent Halley's Addition was changed to IND, Limited Industrial, creating consistency between the use, zoning and land use. In 1995, Red Pine Lane was constructed, leaving a remnant parcel of land south of the new street and east of the railroad right-of-way. In conjunction with the creation of this new intersection with Hwy. 3, the Gun Club Road intersection with Hwy. 3 was closed. With additional residential development in this part of the City, the City revisited the land use and zoning of the properties south of Red Pine Lane and east of Hwy. 3. In March 2002, following an area study in 2001, the City changed the land use designation and zoning of the properties west of Biscayne Avenue from IND, Limited Industrial, to RC, Retail Commercial. The property was rezoned from I-1, Limited Industrial, to NB, Neighborhood Business later in 2002. With the change in land use and zoning, existing uses became non -conforming. POTENTIAL REDEVELOPMENT/RENEWAL DISTRICT Under a Predevelopment Agreement between the Developers and the City, the parties are exploring the potential creation of a redevelopment or renewal district that could include the property being considered for development at this time. The investigation of that possibility is ongoing and, if a determination is made to proceed, that process will occur in parallel to the X51 Planning Report Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 4 development application review process. The purpose :of the analysis is to consider whether the City should work with the developers to implement a master plan for the area rte not oonformingin* the acquisition and redevelopment of some -of the properties in the area that with the current zoning and comprehensive plan for the area. The analysis has considered all of the properties bounded by Hwy 3, Red Pine Lane, Biscayne Avenue and Gun Club Road. A redevelopment or renewal district, if created, would likely involve a subset of the properties in that area. In anticipation of the prospective creation of the district, the developer is proposing the subdivision of a lot along the south side of the development. This lot would create a connection es, since such districts must be contiguous between the substandard and non -conforming properti and meet findings related to lot occupancy, lot coverage and the presence tu es foundtobe structures.. Site improvements that make up the lot coverage and the structures substandard are present in the southern portion of the site. While this requires a configuration for a lot line that passes through a building, that situation can be addressed through building code requirements associated with zero lot line development. Relationship of TIF Findin s to Subdivision — While development application review and subdivision may occur in advance of the creation of a district, construction may not occur with a district until after a district has been certified. Therefore, the two matters will be considered in parallel if it is concluded to move forward with such a district. EXISTING CONDITIONS The site consists of two unplatted parcels and a remnant parcel from the construction of Red Pine Lane. The larger parcel is vacant, the smaller parcel contains a concrete block building, and the remnant is located south of Red Pine Lane adjacent to the railroad. The ite is separated from wetland on the west Hwy..3 by railroad tracks. The site is open with some wooded areas edge of the property. SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the Existing Use North I Single Family Residential South West End Hunting and Fishin Club East Vacant/impound lot/ West .3 EVALUATION OF REQUEST R-1, Single Family Residential P, Park NB; Neighborhood Business 5 1.L Land Use Designation LD, Low Density Residential P, Park and Recreational Open Space RC, Retail Commercial Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 5 Description of Proposal - The applicant proposes to construct three commercial retail buildings totaling 78,406 sq. ft. on this site. The existing building on the southwest corner of the site is proposed to be removed. The primary access to the site is proposed from Red Pine Lane, and is designed to be shared with the adjacent parcel to the northeast (Lots 4 and 5, Halley's I" Addition). Access to the service area of the southerly building is proposed from Gun Club Road. Ultimately, a secondary access via Biscayne Avenue is anticipated. The development plan shows a "ghost plan" for future redevelopment of the three southerly parcels adjacent to the east. The retail development is expected to be anchored by a grocery store; other uses include restaurant, bank, and office. The future plan shows an additional 36,477 sq. ft. of potential office, retail, and a daycare use. Fully redeveloped, the square footage would be approximately 115,000 sq. ft. The proposed building architecture is reflective of a railroad depot. Ponding is proposed in the southwest corner of the site, and rain gardens are proposed throughout the parking lot both to convey water to the pond and to provide added infiltration and treatment for runoff. A petition to vacate the Gun Club Road right-of-way has been submitted. Assuming Gun Club Road is vacated, public street frontage for Lot 2 would be limited. A Variance is required for lot frontage on a public street of less than 50 feet. Access to Lot 2 would be provided from Red Pine Lane via easement over Lot 1. Access to Lot 2 would be available via the remaining Gun Club Road right-of-way. Compatibility with Surrounding Area — The proposal appears compatible with the existing land use designation and zoning. The land_use plan designation was changed to RC, Retail Commercial and the area rezoned to NB, Neighborhood Business, in 2002. Typically, a neighborhood commercial node serves a one -mile radius. Based on this standard, this area of Eagan has been underserved with regard to retail commercial service. The nearest retail commercial nodes to this site in Eagan are all approximately 2-3 miles away (Lexington Ave. and Diffley Rd.; Diffley. Rd, and Hwy. 3; Cliff Rd. and Thomas Lake Road). The RC, Retail Commercial, land use designation states that compatibility considerations vary with the type and scale of development. Specific considerations include the following: ➢ Neighborhood commercial development should be designed at a scale compatible with nearby residential uses. ➢ Sidewalks and trails should be provided to connect these smaller commercial developments to surrounding neighborhoods. ➢ Larger commercial development oriented toward community -wide regional markets requires greater buffering where adjacent to lower intensity use. Such developments should also include unifying design elements to achieve an overall- cohesive appearance. ➢ With regard to access, retail commercial uses tend to generate substantial amounts of customer traffic and require visibility and convenient access and therefore, should be located along arterial or collector roads. ➢ Physical suitability of the land varies with the type and scale of development, but generally flat open sites with few physical constraints are desired because retail commercial uses tend to have larger building footprints and high parking needs. 155 planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 6 Densi —The proposed development consists of three commercial buildings totaling 78,406 sq. ft. on 9.94 acres. This is made up of 69,653 sq. ft. of retail, 5,389 89 sq. ft. of office space, and a 3,364 sq. ft. bank. Future development on adjacent properties could include an additional 36,000 sq. ft. of office, retail and a daycare on 2.45 acres. Lots — The proposed subdivision consists, of two lots. Lot 2 consistshe lythe ion of the larger vacant parcel combined with the existing parcel in the southwest corner development site. Lot 1 is comprised of the balance of the vacant parcel in conjunction with the remnant south of Red Pine Lane. Proposed lot sizes are: Lot 1 = 6.86 acres (312,396 sq. ft.) Lot 2 =.1.89 acres.(115,157 sq. ft.) A Variance is required for Lot 2 with the vacation of Gun Club Road right-of-way. The ay would result in less than 50' of public street frontage for Lot 2. vacation of that right-of--w This Variance can be accommodated through the Planned Development zoning. Bulk Standards -.While the City Code, does not specify bulk seNzonin fordistriict requires D zoning the t, the NB standards are applicable for comparative purposes. The NB g following: Building Setbacks —Proposed development appears to satisfy these h few exceptions. The deviations that are proposed can be accommodated within the nned Development. Minimum building setbacks in the NB district are: Front yard = 30 feet from Red Pine Lane, Gun Club Road and railroad right-of-way Side yard =10 feet Rear yard = 20 feet With Buildings A and B on one lot, internal side yard setbacks do not apply. Building B is set back 30' from the railroad right-of-way on the west edge of the site (a front yard). Building A satisfies is set back 32' from the north property line adjacent to Red Pine Lane. Building C on the south end of the site is set back 10.5' from Gun Club Road. This is less than the 30' setback required from a public right-of-way, however, with the proposed vacation of the Gun Club Road right-of-way, the amount of setback required would be reduced from 30 feet to 20 feet (rear yard) and may increase the building setback from the south lot line if additional land is turned over to this site as a result of the vacation. With the creation of Lot 2 to meet the criteria for a renewal/TIF district, Building C will be set back only a few feet from the north lot line. Building C is designed for future expansion to the east, but will initially be constructed with a setback of approximately 25' from the east property line. Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 7 Building Coverage — While building coverage is typically calculated on a lot by lot basis, the lot configuration in this proposed subdivision are based on existing parcel boundaries and . designed in anticipation of establishing a renewal or redevelopment district. For this reason, individual lot coverage varies greatly. However, overall building coverage on the site is 18%, less than the maximum of 20% allowed in the NB zoning district. Green Space — As with building coverage, green space is typically calculated on a lot by lot basis. However, in this proposal green space is evaluated for the overall site development for the same reasons as building coverage. The development proposes an overall green space of 38%, an amount that satisfies the minimum standard of 30% required by the NB zoning district. Building Height — The NB zoning district allows a maximum building height of 30 feet. Building height is measured to the mean roof level of a pitched or hip roof, and to the highest point of a flat or mansard roof. Using this method of measurement, Building A has a height of 24.6'and Building B of 28.5'; both are consistent with the NB standards. Building C, an L-shaped building, is the largest of the three buildings. Building C also is the anchor building and as such, contains additional architectural elements reflective of its prominence in the development. The variations in roof lines also add visualinterest and define sections of the building. The majority of Building C meets the NB maximum of 30'. The flat roof portion measures 29'-10" to the top of the parapet, and the pitched roof section is 29.2' The anchor tenant space (a grocery store) is proposed to have an arched panel above the main entrance which extends to 38' In addition, the tower feature, which is a focal point of the development, projects to 46.75'. These two features add to the railroad depot architectural theme and exceed the typical 30 -foot height limit in the NB zoning district. Such deviations in building height can be accommodated within the Planned Development if determined to be appropriate by City officials. Trash Enclosures — The zoning ordinance requires trash enclosures to be provided where trash storage does not occur within the principal building. In commercial developments, such enclosures must be attached to the principal structure and be constructed of materials to match the principal structure with gates or doors having at least 90% opacity. Each of the three buildings has attached trash enclosures constructed of materials to match the principal building. Painted steel doors to the enclosures provide the required opacity. The developer should review the trash areas to ensure they are of sufficient size to accommodate both trash and recyclable materials containers for the anticipated tenants. Proposed Use — Retail uses for this development are not specified. The NB zoning district permits uses such as salons, copy centers, florists, gift shops, hobby shops, and off -sale liquor stores and such uses would be considered permitted here. Conditional uses in the NB zoning district include drive-through facilities,- veterinary clinics, daycare facilities, Class II restaurants and on -sale liquor. The proposed development shows one drive-through facility associated with 155 Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 8 the bank in Building A. The drive through can be accommodated through Planned Development approval in lieu of a conditional use permit. Three drive-through service lanes are proposed. The entrance to the drive-through service would be from the west end of the site. The drive- through lanes face south with vehicles exiting the drive-through to the south. Stacking for 5 vehicles must be provided for each of the drive-through lanes. The development shows patio areas off the west end of Building C, and the southeast end of Building B, as well as a plaza area on the east side of Building B. These areas suggest outdoor dining associated with restaurant tenants. Class I (sit-down, full-service) restaurants are- permitted repermitted uses in the NB zoning district; on -sale liquor service, associated with a Class I restaurant, can be accommodated through Planned Development approval in lieu of a conditional use permit. Specific users have not been identified as of yet, however, the applicant should note that a quick -service type restaurant (i.e. deli, coffee shops, sandwich shop) will require specific approval as those uses are considered Conditional Uses in the NB zoning district. As such, they warrant additional review and specific approval within the Planned Development in lieu of a conditional use permit. Grading/Topography-The site is generally open with drainage mainly to the south and west toward an existing wetland (portion of Pond LP -23 as designated in the City Storm Water Management Plan — 2005). The preliminary grading plan identifies, construction of retaining walls at the eastern property line. The developer should be responsible. for obtaining easement permission from the adjacent properties for the construction of these retaining walls, if necessary. Two service drives are proposed to be extended to the east for future connection by re- development along Biscayne Avenue. The final grading plan should be revised to match existing grades of the adjacent properties to the east to allow grades of 5% or less for the proposed future service drives to the east toward Halley's 1St Addition. The developer should be responsible for installing and maintaining erosion control measures in accordance with City engineering standards. All retaining walls should be located on private property, outside of public right-of-way, and maintained privately by property owners. Storm Water Drainage — The preliminary storm drainage plan is acceptable with modifications. Storm water runoff from the development will drain to a new storm water pond before discharging to the existing wetland (Pond LP -23) in the southwest comer of the development. The entire site lies within Drainage District L, and Pond LP -23 ultimately drains to Lebanon Hills Regional Park (LHRP). Overall post -development storm water runoff discharge rates are proposed not to exceed pre -development rates. The developer is proposing the installation of rain garden and small infiltration basins within the green space areas of the development to provide for additional storm runoff quality and quantity Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 9 control. The developer should submit evidence of private agreements between all properties in the subdivision providing for long-term maintenance of these rain garden and infiltration basin areas, prior to final subdivision approval, and in a form acceptable to the City Attorney and Public Works Department. An existing public storm sewer along the east and south edges of the property accommodates drainage from Biscayne Avenue and Gun Club Road. The developer should be responsible for providing a public storm drainage system within the development to accommodate this drainage, in accordance with City engineering standards. Utilities — The preliminary utility plan is acceptable. Public sanitary sewer of sufficient size, depth and capacity is available to the northwest from Red Pine Lane for connection and extension by development of this site. This development should extend public sanitary sewer. of sufficient size, depth, and capacity through the development to serve properties south and east, in accordance with the City Comprehensive Sewer Plan (2000). Water main of sufficient size and capacity is also available within Red Pine Lane to serve the site. All existing well and septic systems on the site should be abandoned in accordance with Dakota County and City standards as partof this development. Access/Circulation/Traffic Impacts — Access Public street access to the development is proposed in three locations: one onto Red Pine Lane, a service drive onto Gun Club Road, and one to Biscayne Avenue with ultimate development of the properties to the east (Phase II). Internal circulation is provided within the proposed development via private service drives, as shown on the preliminary site plan. Trip Generation/ Distribution — Phase 1 It is estimated that approximately 4,760 total vehicle trips per day (in/out — Source: Institute of Traffic Engineers 7`" Edition) will utilize the proposed Phase I development of the site, and detailed as follows: 23,870 SF Grocery Store 2,470..vehicle trips 5.400 SF Office 160 45,800 SF General Retail 1,800 3,400 SF Bank w/ drive -up windows 430 Total —Phase 1 4,760 It is also estimated that the following distribution of this daily traffic from Phase I will occur: 4,520 vehicle trips (95%) - to/from.west - Highway 3/ Red Pine Lane 145 vehicle trips (3%) — to/from east - Red Pine Lane 95 vehicle trips (2%) — to/ from south Biscayne Avenue 1151 Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 10 otal vehicle Trip Generationl Distribution — Phase II - It is estimated that tc Engineers a Edition roximaw 11 ut000 the proposed tely 2, trips per day (in/out —Source: instituof te Phase II development along Biscayne Avenueand detailed as follows 89000 SF Daycare 14,400 SF Office 27,000 SF General Retail Total —Phase Il 640 vehicle tri 160 2,000 It is also estimated that the following distribution of this daily traffic from Phase H will occur: 1,900 vehicle trips (95%) - to/from west - Highway 3/ Red'Pine Lane 60 vehicle trips (31/6) — to/from east - Red Pine Lane 40 vehicle trips (2%) — to/ from south — Biscayne Avenue Traffic Impact - A traffic impact study was completed by the developer and reviewed, by City staff analyzing the present and future operation of the Red Pine Lane/ Highway level of service n The Highway 3/ Red Pine Lane intersection currently operates at overall g th an esmatd 95% of the the peak hours with its current approach lane layout Highwnd ay significant additional demands traffic generated by the development originating from g Y will be placed on this intersection.

To accommodate this development, mitigative improvements to Red Pine Lane would be necessary to provide an acceptable level of service, including: A dedicated right turn lane on westbound Red Pine Lane (including additional right-of- way acquisition in the northeast comer of the intersection). This is a MNDOT- recommended improvement An extended left turn lane on westbound Red Pine Lane (for stacking to the proposed access, additional right-of-way acquisition from adjacent property in Halley's Addition) An eastbound right turn lane along the entire development adjacent to Red Pine Lane. Signal revisions Railroad crossing signal revisions along south side of Red Pine Lane (w/ 8 -foot Relocation of 8 -foot pedestrian trail boulevard) E A* Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 11 The developer should be responsible for all necessary roadway and signal mitigative improvements on Red Pine Lane and at the Red Pine Lane/ Highway 3 intersection listed above. The developer should also be responsible for the dedication and acquisition of all necessary right- of-way, and public easements to construct these mitigative improvements. Also, to provide additional distance from the development entrance to Highway 3 to improve vehicle circulation on Red Pine Lane, the entrance should be located as far east on the property as possible. These 'improvements will require the acquisition and dedication of additional right-of-way from the development and other properties. The preliminary plat ' and site plan submitted with the application does not reflect the dedication of right-of-way for the additional roadway width, needed for these Red Pine Lane improvements. To accommodate ultimate development in the area, additional mitigative improvements to Highway 3/. Red ' Pine Lane would be necessary to provide an acceptable level of service, including: • A dual left turn lane on southbound Highway 3 • Signal revisions to accommodate the dual left tum • Railroad crossing signal revisions to accommodate the dual left turn These improvements would be the responsibility of the City and MNDOT. Gun Club Road, along the southeast edge of the site, is currently a rural section gravel road. The use of Gun Club Road by this development will require the upgrade of the roadway to City street standards with bituminous paving, concrete curb & gutter, and storm sewer. Also, with future adjacent development, a cul-de-sac bubble will be required at the west end of Gun Club Road near the southeast corner of this development site. The developer should be responsible for the upgrade of Gun Club Road, from Biscayne Avenue to. the southeast corner of the development. The developer should also be responsible for the dedication of public right-of-way to accommodate the one-quarter of the future cul -de -.sac within the development at the proposed west end of Gun Club Road. Easements/Permits/Ri t -of -Way — The developer should be responsible for obtaining private ingress/ egress easement from Lots 4. and 5, Block 1. Halley's First Addition to cover the access drive over those properties to align with Red Poll Court. The developer should provide private ingress/ egress easements to the adjacent properties within the Phase II development area along Biscayne Avenue to allow for future access/ circulation between the developments. This development should dedicate all right-of-way necessary to construct the required improvements to Red Pine Lane. Financial Obli ag tion — At this time, there are no pending assessments on the parcel proposed for platting. It5R planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 12 . Based upon a study by City staff of the financial obligations collected in the past at d proposed of final use for the property, the total estimated charges of $139,807.00 will be collected subdivision or connection to the City, s utility system based on the table below. The final charges will be computed using the rates in effect at time of connection or subdivision. 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. These amounts do not include estimated connection charges for the properties along Biscayne Avenue included in the submitted concept plan.

Y the parcel is an approximate 12 -acre wetland, "Gun Club Marsh" (City Pond LP -23). This is a state public water wetland (DNR#19-0309W) that drains toward Marsh Lake (DNR#19-0308W) in LHRP. The developer proposes to address City stormwater quality requirements via two constructed ponds, which would pre -treat runoff before it drains to dress runoff andratthe dto City Pond LP -23. A series of infiltration basins also is proposed to help a Wetlands —The wetland delineation report for the project site (Peterson Environmental Consulting, Inc.; Project No. 2004-058) identifies one wetland that is subject to theCity's jurisdiction, drain, fill, or according to the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act (WCA). Any proposals to excavate this wetland need to meet all provisions of WCA laws and rules. eet Originally proposing 7,650 square feet of wetland fill impacts requiring at least 15,300 asquu cts. Mlar�eRules of wetland replacement, the developer now proposes only 94 square feet of fill p Ch. 8420.0122 Subp. 9 allow a maximum of 400 square feet of fill in this type of wetland without replacement under a so-called "de minimus" exemption. The applicant recently submitted an application for such exemption. The City must formally approve this exemption. Tree Preservation — A tree inventory submitted with this application indicates that there are six (6) significant trees and 34,056 square feet of significant woodlands located on this site. Most of the individual trees and significant woodlands are located along the west side of the property. Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 13 Individual tree size and species break down is as follows: one 6" oak tree, one 12" black cherry tree, one 12" and one 14" elm tree, and one 16 and one 20" poplar (cottonwood) tree. The significant woodlands are comprised mostly of softwood deciduous trees, (elm, cottonwood, and willow trees) in the three to twelve inch diameter range. The majority of these woodland trees. are located within seventy (70) feet of the existing wetland in the southwest portion of the site. The development as proposed will result in the removal of a total of five (5) significant trees (83% of the total); and 25,080 square feet of significant woodlands (74% of the total). According to the City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance allowable tree/woodland removal for this development is set at 40%. Required tree removal mitigation for this application calculates to sixty-five (65) Category B trees (or an equivalent combination of Category A and/or Category C trees. The applicant has submitted a Tree Mitigation Plan that indicates the fulfillment of required tree mitigation through the installation of thirteen (13) Category A trees and forty (40) Category B trees, for an equivalent amount of sixty-six (66) trees. Staff has concerns about the feasibility of preserving significant woodlands along the east side of existing wetland, as indicated on the Tree Mitigation Plan, because proposed parking areas, buildings, and/or hard surface pedestrian areas are located literally within 1 foot of tree preservation areas. According to the City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance, required tree protection measures (i.e. tree protection fencing) are required to be placed at the drip line or at the perimeter of the critical root zone (CRZ), whichever is greater, of significant woodlands to be preserved. Neither the submitted Tree Mitigation Plan, nor the Grading Plan, indicates the required placement of tree protection measures. Throughout several previous meetings with the applicant staff has provided the following recommendations to the applicant: a. Provide for additional preservation. of significant woodlands located within 30-50 feet of existing wetlands. b. Revise the Tree Mitigation/Landscape Plan to provide for appropriate spacing of mitigation trees (located south of the proposed storm pond, in the extreme southwest portion of the site). To date staff has not seen any of these recommendations included on a revised development proposal. The applicant has also been instructed that they will be required to demonstrate which "practical difficulties or practical hardships" should grant them the ability to' an exception to City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance allowable tree removal limits. To date staff has not seen this type of narrative on a revised development proposal. Landscaping — The City landscape ordinance'requires that tree mitigation be provided in addition to required landscaping. Consequently, the Landscape Plan should stand alone and satisfy the Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 14 landscape ordinance standards, absent any mitigation plantings. While the applicant submitted a Mitigation Plan separate from the overall Landscape Plan, a Landscape -only Plan was not submitted, making evaluation of this requirement more difficult. It appears that the bulk of the shade trees on the site are designated as mitigation trees, placement in parking lot islands and along the perimeter of the site. As such, it appears that some of the mitigation is provided in place of required landscaping (e.g. trees in parking islands or where screening is required). A separate Landscape -only Plan should be submitted prior to Final PD and Final Subdivision approval. The proposed Landscape Plan may need to be revised to redesignate some of the mitigation trees as landscape trees. With the amount of site area covered by wetland and ponding areas, the combined Landscape and Tree Mitigation plan appears to result in a fully planted site. Thus, such revisions to the Landscape Plan may affect the mitigation plan as the site may not then accommodate as many mitigation trees as the current plan proposes. Therefore, the tree mitigation plan should be revised accordingly and the revised plan submitted to the City prior to final subdivision approval. The landscape plan proposes -a variety of trees, shrubs and perennials. The plan includes landscape features at the entrance and at the center pylon sign. The parking is located internally, with buildings situated at the perimeter of the site. Thus, most screening of parking areas from the right-of-way is accomplished through building placement rather than landscaping. Additional landscape features include rain gardens (which also provide storm water management), and a "wood trellis with brick columns and limestone wall" creating a visual focal point within the development. Parking islands have either shade trees (maple, hawthorn, linden) or ornamental trees (serviceberry). A few evergreens in parking islands should be changed to shade trees. Evergreen trees are subject to greater damage from snow storage, may interfere with vehicle doors and can obstruct visibility necessary for security and safety within a parking lot. Shade trees and ornamental trees provide shade to cool the pavement in the summer months, and branches extending overhead allowing for snow storage within the islands in the winter months, provide visibility through the lot providing for better .security and safety. River birch are utilized around the rain gardens and wetland area within the site. A variety of perennials including daylilies, sedum, hosta and varieties of grasses are proposed in addition to shrubs such as chokeberry, dogwood, honeysuckle, hydrangea, juniper, and spirea. Perennials are a suitable choice for locations that are subject to winter snow storage, and provide added color and interest year around. The plans make little use of evergreen shrubs, although evergreen trees are utilized in various locations. Additional evergreen materials should be incorporated to provide more year round color. Along the south side of Building B, the pine trees may soften the appearance of the. building wall as viewed across the wetland, however, staff is concerned that these trees are not well suited to the growing conditions in that location and will be crowded against the building. Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 15 Additionally, the Final Landscape Plan should be signed by the landscape architect or certified nurseryperson who prepared it. Parks and Recreation — This development is responsible for cash parks and trails dedications payable at the time of building permit at the rates then in effect. The 2006 rates are $5,790 per acre for parks and $1,251 per acre for trails. Building Architecture/Elevations — Building architecture is reminiscent of a railroad depot. Building materials include a limestone, brick, stone and glass. The roof material is slate. Details include -wood trussed entry gables, copper flashing and wood soffit brackets. The double pitched mansard roofs are architecturally consistent with this theme and provide screening for rooftop mechanical equipment. Because of their visibility, Buildings A and B carry architectural elements around all sides of the building. Building C focuses architectural elements on the front facade. The south elevation of Building C is not as visible or prominent as that of Buildings A and B. While it utilizes the same brick material, the rear elevation of Building C lacks the architectural features that are found .on the front and sides of that building. Si na e — City Sign Code allows two building signs on two elevations for tenants in multi -tenant buildings. One additional sign is allowed for end tenant spaces: The applicant submitted a separate document outlining the signage guidelines, along with graphic exhibits defining the sign panels on each building elevation. Individual tenant building signage is proposed on the north and south elevations of Building A, the north, east and west elevations of Building B, and the north and west elevations of Building C. The anchor tenant in. Building C has a 5'0" high sign area above the main entrance, with two smaller sign panels on either side of the main entrance. Building A also has two 4'0" sign panels on the north and south elevations at the east end of the. building. The remaining building sign areas are 2'6" in height. The proposed areas on the buildings for tenant signage appear to be consistent with the Sign Code. The number of signs for each tenant space, including the anchor tenant in Building C, should also comply with Sign Code requirements and will be reviewed, as part of the sign, permit application prior to installation for each tenant. The applicant has indicated that building signage will be limited to channel letters and "high- tech, long lasting LED light sources instead of neon." Building signs are proposed to be backlit, and only LED lighting permitted, no neon and no flashing lights. The maximum letter height is proposed to be 30"and signs are to be located directly above entrance doors. A four-sided pylon sign is proposed'at the NW corner of site. The pylon "incorporates the materials and design aesthetics of the rest of the development setting the tone for the mixed use center beyond. It consists of brick support columns with a limestone base to match the materials used on the buildings and has a pitched roof to match the buildings. The pylon identifies the center name, and includes an internally lit cabinet system on three sides,of.the 1403 Planning Report - Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 16 identification sign (pylon), divided into equal height panels for lease by individual tenants. The Sign Code limits the sign area to 125 sq. ft. on each side. he A monument sign is also proposed at each entrance into the site identifying mo the monuments ot ter eT ed monument signs are also constructed of brick and limestone. seven feet in height, and the message area cannot be more than four feet in height. p k —Number of Stalls — The parking areas are designed to be shared Staff's theparthree ing buildings with easements across the lots for shared use and uirement of 264 stalls. The applicant calculations differ from the applicant's. A total parking q shows a'required 302 stalls. Within the PD zoning and o tade for the dilfferent usest is lgned for within all shared parking, the staff evaluation combined the squareg three buildings, separating the uses for office, retail and bank. Staff s calculations result in a total of 264 parking stalls required for the propose d evestalment for The breakdown is as follows: 26 7 stalls fore are o ated tai as follows:I spa, 13 stalls for the , office space. By building, the 24 stalls Building A = 42 stalls Building B = 48 stalls Building C = 174 stalls According to the site plan, a total of 302 parking stalls are proviideed oconsider sults in s fining the age of parking. With anexcess number of stalls, the developer should parking stalls to meet dimensional standards (see discussion below). Parkin — Dimensional Standards — City Code requires parking stall dimensions of theparking sta is 19' deep. Most of the parking stalls meet these dimensional standards; size are proposed to be 9.5' x 19' and do not meet minimum forrequirements. parking stall and aislestis a were from City Code standards. The dimensional requirements added to the City Code in 2000. Prior to that, a 10 -foot wide sandard was d feet were allowed lied in igow turnover areas, such as retail parking lots, and stalls as narrow turnover parking lots, such as employee parking at a warehouse or office building. The acceptability of the proposed 9.5' wide parking stalls is r policyostalls, er to e developer ined should y City officials. Since the site apparently has an excess num parking consider redesigning the stalls to meet dimensional standards. required parking stall depth of 19 feet and two-way drive aisle width of 24 feet are satisfied. The q p Site Li�htin Plan — Site lighting is proposed to be accomplished through free-standing pole- g mounted lighting mounted lighting. Some buildinxtures aaroep l 75 watts and the decorative decorative fixtures fixtures standard fixtures are proposed. The are 320 watts; both are metal halide. I �4 Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 17 The decorative fixtures are proposed to be both pole -mounted and building mounted using a decorative "shepherd's crook" support. The pole -mounted decorative fixtures are proposed at a 20' mounting height along the main entrance into the site, and at a 12' mounting height along pedestrian pathways and other pedestrian oriented areas. The same fixture is proposed to be building mounted along the front of Building C and all around Building B. The standard fixture is proposed to be pole mounted at a 24' height with botsame gle andfixtured twin head design throughout the parking lots. A building mounted version of the s is proposed to illuminate the service area on the east side of Building C. Typically, minimum light levels of 0.5 foot-candles are acceptable within parking lots, and maximum light levels of not more than 1 standards ds with the exandle are tableat the ception of the west corner of photometric plan appears to satisfy thesea Building A where light levels drop below 0.5 foot-candles. The Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (2003) manual suggests an average -to - minimum uniformity ratio not greater than 4:1. The average -to -minimum ratio in parking lots A and C are greater than the recommended 4:1 ratio. This suggests greater light variation throughout the lot. The site lighting plan should be reviewed and calculations clarified or lighting modified -to better achieve the IESNA recommended standards. The developer also should have the lighting engineer and landscape architect review the Site Lighting Plan in conjunction with the Overall Planting Plan to ensure that the selection of plant materials does not interfere with effective site fighting. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Revestors is requesting approval of a Rezoning from NB, Neighborhood Business to PD, Planned Development, a Preliminary Planned Development to create a mixed office/retail commercial development, and a Preliminary Subdivision to create three lots upon 9.82 acres located southeast of Red Pine Lane and Hwy. 3. The proposed development consists of three commercial retail buildings totaling 78,406 sq. ft. The existing building on the southwest corner of the site is proposed to be removed. The primary access to the site is proposed from Red Pine Lane, and is designed to be shared with the adjacent parcel to the northeast. The development plan shows a "ghost plan" for future redevelopment of the three southerly parcels adjacent to the east with a potential 36,447 sq. ft. of similar uses. Ultimately, a secondary access via Biscayne Avenue is anticipated. The retail development is expected to be anchored by a grocery store; other uses include restaurant, bank, and office. Ponding is proposed in the southwest comer ona andito, ov d add d infins ltration and te proposed reatinentut the parking lot both to convey water to the p P for runoff. The proposed building architecture is reflective'of a railroad depot. The application is largely in compliance -with NB zoning requirements. inThe an odd configuration subdivision, designed to meet criteria for a renewaVTIF district, results Planning Report — Red Pine Crossing March 28, 2006 Page 18 and skewed calculations for bulk standards.

The project when completed will include store, opporestatunities to, bankhe under -served rce and, es dents businesses that will provide much needed retail and service opportunities t within this part of Eagan as well as portions of adjacent communities. In addition, Red Pine Crossing transforms the under-utilized and substandard properties into a productive addition to he City of Eagan. Red Pine Crossing is planned as a two-phase project with the first phase currently beinged ubmi ted as a Planned Development. However, the entire redevelopment area has been master planned J with significant city input to determine the best use for the complete district in regards to land use and utilities, as well as vehicle and pedestrian circulation. Phase I consistsof three very pscale buildings ace including a totaling approximately 78,000 gross square feet of mostly retail, bank and r space mid-size anchor tenant at the south side of the site. The endmixof Buildingd use natures C. Phase IIawil further enhnceladdhan addition of a second story office area over the retail p additional 45,000 gross square feet of retail, office and daycare businesses. ive Plan Guided as RC — Retail Commercial and zoned as NB The entire site is currently Comprehens consistent with the uses for the site. The current zoning Neighborhood Business which are both is also appropriate for this property given the good access and vipsibility off of Highway 3 and n an ing appropriate supporting land use to he adjacent Rl - residential developments. Of the zone creounw ed for Red includes to the east a.small strip of four lots of Industrial use and he Public Pine Elementary, and finally to the south is the Park zone that encompasses the West End Hunting and Fishing Club. Aesthetically, Red Pine Crossing harks back to the railroad s early 1900's using any depots and terminals as visual precedent for the images detailing f the enter. In their depots and stations were vital centers of -activity within a community, both socially and economically. Red Pine Crossing is envisioned as just such a place- in the fabric of this modern day community. To reinforce this vitality, pedestrian paths were developed connecting all adjacent neighborhoods to each part of the site and to the central plaza. The railroad depot image is developed using a palette of durable, high quality materials including a strong limestone base in a random ashlar pattern, brick and tstone ho columns Add Tonal d tail is wadded supporting the many slate roofs, and finishes with beck S g with wood trussed entry gables, copper flashing, and wood soffit brackets that were so commonly found supporting the deep overhangs of depots from this era. The slate covered double,pitched mansard roofs provide visual variety for each building again recalling the depot materialsnand d sisame n e�ementf function t to fully screen the rooftop mechanical units. While these familiar EAPROJECTS\0501MITY REVIEW (SITE, CUP)\PROJECTNARRATIVE.DOC RECE14-0 MAR .g 3 J/ TVA throughout the buildings, at the same time the facades are varied in design to breakup each building into smaller sections — each with their own visual identity. In addition the massing of the buildings gradually progresses from the northwest corner of the site starting with the lower bank canopy and smaller scale of building A. It builds slightly within the staggered form of Building B along Highway 3. Finally the volumes rise to the focal points of Building C with its two story tower at center of the site and the arched bow of the anchor tenant's entry. Due to the high visibility of all sides of buildings A and B, the detail level developed on the fronts of the buildings is carried around all sides. These buildings even include windows on the backs- of each tenant space, a rare feature in retail design. The buildings are positioned around the perimeter of the development providing the opportunity to create a central landscape that balances the needs of pedestrians and vehicles while still leaving significant room for gardens, public plazas, and a recirculating water feature. Central to the site is a series of rain gardens that are filled with perennial flowers and ornamental grasses. Special attention was given to the placement of these landscape features to visually divide the parking lot and create attractive pedestrian connections. The landscaping of the property is further articulated with the inclusion of over 150 trees and nearly 400 shrubs carefully distributed around the site to provide interest, to highlight landforms, as well as to function as screens each .relative to the needs of a particular area. Finally, the site will be accented with decorative trellises, limestone seatwalls, a recirculating. boulder stream, and railroad themed artifacts carefully distributed around the site and adjacent to pedestrian paths. As appropriate for a masterplan of this size, the traffic circulation to and within the site was studied to create appropriate circulation systems for the quantity of vehicles inherent to land zoned for commercial development; The project circulation included review and recommendations by a private ;traffic engineer, Wenck, as well as the city engineering department. While vehicle trips will understandably increase with this development when compared to vacant and minimally used land, the propertylas been guided for retail commercial development by the City of Eagan for a long time and public transportation routes anticipate that load. As noted in the traffic study, 95% of the trips return directly to the signal controlled intersection of Highway 3 and Red Pine Lane minimizing impact on the nearby neighborhood streets. In addition the traffic study showed that all existing public roadways will be within standard acceptable ranges for levels of service (LOS) at peak hours and recommends the addition of a 100 foot right turn lane eastbound on Red Pine Lane turning into the main entry of the development which we have added to the project. Special care was focused on the design of Red Pine Crossing to minimize the impacts of the development to the ecosystem. First; the rain gardens previously mentioned act as environmentally friendly sustainable areas to collect the waters of a typical small rain, allow them to infiltrate into the ground, and be cleaned in the process. This approach significantly reduces the rainwater runoff that leaves the site, a benefit to the entire stormwater district. Even during a heavy rain, the rain gardens provide infiltration into the soil while creating an overflow process stepping from one rain garden to the next progressing down the site contours until the rainwater enters the N JRP pond created at the southwest corner of the property. Further, the project strives. to maintain its environmentally sustainable approach by carefully redesigning the buildings and vehicle circulation plans, pushing them away from the existing wetland fully maintaining this wetland without disturbance. The parking stalls widths were also reduce by 6" to help allow for the wetland avoidance. The project also provides buffer space around E:IPROJECTS\0301MCITY REVIEW (SITE. CUP)\PROJECT NARRATIVE -DOC the wetland ranging from a minimum of 10 feet to well over the 30 foot preferred buffer dimension. At all locations where the buffer is less than 30 foot, the area developed is graded away from the wetlands in order to not allow untreated stormwater from directly entering the pond. To further accentuate the level of quality developed within the site and buildings, the exterior signage guidelines were carefully crafted to specify consistent tenant sign placement and appropriate signage sizing. The guidelines also mandate top of the line individual channel letters and high-tech, long lasting LED light sources instead of neon. The signage approach culminates with the main project identification sign which incorporates the materials and design aesthetics of the rest of the development setting the tone for the mixed use center beyond. All three building of Phase I of Red Pine Crossing are scheduled for a start in spring, 2006, and be ready for tenant interior construction late in 2006. The first tenant openings would be anticipated around the second quarter of 2007. Phase II is anticipated to be incorporated into this Planned Development by an amendment process after the remaining parcels are acquired. Currently this phase is anticipated to begin in the first half of 2007, roughly following the opening of the Phase I buildings. .Red Pine Crossing is well suited for the Planned Development approach since it provides a very high level of building and site detail. The benefits include the project's mixed-use nature, low impact stormwater system, wetland preservation, extensive landscaping, and top quality, exterior image and finishes all within an area of the city targeted for revitalization. In summary, the developers are excited to be able to propose Red Pine Crossing as a quality and productive mixed-use development within the fabric of the City of Eagan, a vital and enjoyable community in which to live and work. We believe this project can enhance this gateway to the city both visually and through the products and services that will be available to the people of this section of the city.

AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW City Code Chapter 11, Section 1!. 50, Subdivisions 4C and 4D provide the following. Subdivision 4C states that the Planning Commission shall recommend a conditional use permit and the Council shall issue such conditional use permits only if it finds that such use at the proposed location: 1. Will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, or general welfare of the neighborhood or the City. 2. Will be harmonious with the general and applicable specific objectives, of the Comprehensive Plan and City Code provisions. 3. Will be designed, constructed, operated and maintained so as to be compatible in appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and will not change the essential character of that area, nor substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. 4. Will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services, including streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water and sewer systems zol and schools. 5. Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be hazardous or detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare because of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors. 6. Will have vehicular ingress and egress to the property which does not create traffic congestion,or interfere with traffic on surrounding public streets. 7. * Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of major importance. Subdivision 4D, Conditions, states that in reviewing applications of conditional use permits, the Planning Commission and the Council may attach whatever ciated with these uses, tions they deem to protect the value necessary to mitigate anticipated adverse impacts as of other property within the district, and to achieve the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. In all cases in which conditional uses are granted, the Council shall require such evidence and guarantees as it may deem necessary as proof that the conditions stipulated in connection therewith are being and will be complied with. The City Code allows for a pylon no greater than 27' in height and no larger than 125 square feet in area per side with approval of a Conditional Use Permit. BACKGROUND/HISTORY The Eagan Central Park development was platted in 2003. ,The existing monument sign was permitted and constructed in 2003. EXISTING CONDITIONS The Eagan Central Park entrance located at the intersection of Pilot Knob Road and Central Parkway,. features a curved wrought iron fence supported by five brick pillars on the northwest corner of the intersection. A "Lone Oak" tree adorns the fence to welcome guests to the entrance of the site. There is an existing 6'-3" non -illuminated monument sign located approximately 200' north of the intersection. 202 SURROUNDING USES The site has research and development uses to the north and south, and town home and multiple residential uses to the east and west. EVALUATION OF REQUEST The applicant is proposing the pylon be placed in the same location as the existing monument sign, perpendicular to Pilot Knob Road, to afford easy viewing by both north and south -bound traffic. According to the applicant, the existing monument sign does not allow for promotion of events and programs at the Community Center. The, applicant states that events continue to increase in popularity and number, and are scheduled on a daily basis throughout the year. Many events are paid, private reservations, while others are public functions. To make possible the ability to post related announcements concerning the events and programs at a highly visible location via LED message board would add efficiency to the operation of the Community Center, provide a convenience for patrons and residents and reduce the placement of off -premise signs along .the streets. BULK STANDARDS/DESIGN all City Code bulk standards for spacing, size; setbacks and height. The proposed sign meets The applicant is proposing a double-faced pylon, 10' in height, 108:5 square feet in area and setback a minimum of 10' from all property lines in keeping with City Code requirements. The main (upper) portion of the sign would measure 59.5 square feet in area. The main portion of the sign would be internally -lit and contain the new City of Eagan logo placed alongside text indicating the "Eagan Community Center Central Park" location. The lower portion of the sign would contain an LED message board measuring 49 square feet in area, which would be subordinate to the main portion of the sign. The three -line LED message board would be contained within analuminum cabinet, and would provide three -lines of 9" text in a red -color to allow for easy -to -read nighttime viewing. The LED text would be changed by City staff via a modem connection, and the applicant proposes text changes twice per day to allow for display of messages pertaining to both daytime and evening events. A masonry brick would be used for the construction of the 2 -foot high sign base, and would be enhanced with a modular block planter surrounding the bottom of the sign. The plantings will be consistent with other plant varieties ' sed throughout the park site; and will visually support the vertical surfaces of the sign. zoz> SUMMARY/CONCLUSION The applicant is proposing a 10' high, 108.50 square foot pylon sign with an LED message center to allow for announcement of events and programs at the Eagan Community Center. The proposal appears to satisfy bulk standards for pylon signs in the Sign Ordinance. The proposed sign also appears compatible at the proposed location, specifically, and this area of the City, generally.

Drawn By:_SS Dole: 5/24/02 Scale; !S NOTED Rev: Rev: Rev: X, SIGN ABOVE FO FINAL APPROVAI P�o 1.1 EXISTING MONUMENT SIGN 0 CENTRAL PARK READER BOARD CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NARRATIVE The City of Eagan is proposing the installation of a 10' x 14' pylon sign with a two sided electronic reader board. Said sign is to be located on City owned property addressed as 1501 Central Parkway. The City property is bounded on the east by Pilot Knob Road. The proposed sign would replace the existing two sided monument sign and be positioned perpendicular to Pilot Knob Road so as to be visible by north and south bound Pilot Knob traffic. Due to the 10' height of the sign, it is necessary to request a Conditional Use Permit. The proposed sign will replace the existing, static, monument sign that identifies the property as Central Park. The proposed sign would be a multi -panel design that would continue to identify the property as Central Park but also allow for the promotion of events and programs scheduled at the near by Eagan Community Center, also located within Central Park, via a two side electronic reader board. Events and programs at the Community Center continue to increase in popularity and number and are now scheduled on a daily basis throughout the year. Many are paid, private reservations, while others are public functions. Having the ability to make xelated announcements at a highly visible location would add efficiency to the operation be a convenience for patrons and residents. The reader board would contain three horizontal text lines of 9" characters and be controlled by City staff via a modem connection. The cabinet will be steel clad with an aluminum facing into which the letters and City logo have been cut. The sign will be internally lit thereby reducing the potential for glare that may hinder passing drivers. A modular block planter will surround the bottom of the sign. The plantings will be consistent with others located on the site and aid in visually "grounding" the vertical surfaces of the sign. Because the new sign will be located in essentially the seine location as the existing sign, minimal disturbance of the site will be necessary. *% II'l h1 A.D D ATI\/G L AGENDA CITY OF EAGAN REGULAR MEETING OF THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY EAGAN MUNICIPAL CENTER APRIL 4, 2006 A.

SOUTHEAST EAGAN — RECEIVE SUBSTANDARD CONDITION REPORT AND REQUEST FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE CREATION, OF RENEWAL AND RENOVATION TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT FOR A PORTION OF THE AREA BOUNDED BY HWY 3, RED PINE LANE, BISCAYNE AVENUE AND GUN CLUB ROAD IN SOUTHEAST EAGAN AND REQUEST THAT THE CITY COUNCIL CALL FOR A PUBLIC HEARING ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To receive the substandard condition report and request from Revestors Realty for consideration of the creation of Renewal and Renovation Tax Increment Financing District for a portion of the area bounded by Hwy 3, Red Pine Lane, Biscayne Avenue and Gun Club Road in southeast Eagan and request that the City Council call for a public hearing, FACTS: • The City entered into a predevelopment agreement with Revestors and Manley Development to study the possibility of creating a redevelopment district in the southeast area of Eagan at the southeast corner of Hwy 3 and Red Pine Lane. The purpose of the agreement was to encourage the developers to identify a masterplan approach to the property and to review the 'substandard conditions and financial assumptions associated with the potential creation of a redevelopment district to encourage the development of the property and the redevelopment of parcels that are non -conforming, with the current guide and zoning designations for the area. • The parties have worked together to prepare the necessary plans and analysis and it has been determined through a Substandard Conditions Study by LHB Associates that the area could qualify as a Renewal and Renovation District under the TIF statute, if the EDA and City Council make appropriate findings to that effect. • Manley Development owns a portion of the site that would lie outside of the . Renovation and Renewal District, but Revestors owns a portion of the property that meets the substandard qualifications and, as a part of its development proposal for the former Oberg property, the company has prepared a prospective masterplan for the development of the remainder of the site described to illustrate how the currently proposed portion of the Red Pine development could extend by phases into the remainder -of the prospective District. • Revestors has submitted a request for the City to consider creation of a Renovation and Renewal TIF District and to consider the use of proceeds for such a district to assist with extraordinary costs associated with the prospective 215 development and redevelopment. In order to consider such an action, the City Council will need to schedule and hold a public hearing for that purpose. The action before the EDA is to accept the request and the Substandard Conditions Report and request that the City Council, at its next meeting, consider scheduling a public hearing for that purpose.

The proposed TIF District is located in the City of Eagan, in a general area bounded by State Highway 3 (South Robert Trail), Red Pine Lane, Biscayne Avenue and Gun Club Road (Diagram 1). The purpose of LHB's work was to determine whether the proposed TIF District meets the statutory requirements for coverage, and whether three buildings on seven parcels, located within the proposed TIF District, meet the qualifications required for a Renewal and Renovation District. Diagram 1— Proposed TIF District SCOPE OF WORK The proposed district consists of seven (7) parcels with three (3) industrial structures. All of the buildings in the proposed district received anon-site interior and exterior inspection. The buildings were inspected in October 2005. Building code and Condition Deficiency reports for each building inspected by LHB are located in Appendix B. Page 3 �Fo a QNB ,y LANE fQ :EEt,. f4 lu ( 5 f -_4 „K/M� 4IV ,v�.. 4 � J 11-x!

Page 3 CONCLUSION After inspecting and evaluating the properties within the proposed TIF District and applying current statutory criteria for a Renewal and Renovation District under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10a, it is our professional opinion that the proposed TIF District qualifies as a Renewal and Renovation District. The remainder of this report describes our process and findings in detail. PART 2 — MINNESOTA STATUTE 469.174, SUBDIVISION 10a REOUIREMENTS The properties were inspected in accordance with the following requirements under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), which states: Interior Inspection "The municipality may not make such determination [that the building is structurally substandard] without an interior inspection of the property..." Exterior Inspection and Other Means "An interior inspection of the property is not required, if the municipality finds that (1) the municipality or authority is unable to gain access to the property after using its best efforts to obtain permission from the party that owns or controls the property; and (2) the evidence otherwise supports a reasonable conclusion that the, building is structurally substandard." Documentation "Written documentation of the findings and reasons why an interior inspection was not conducted must be made and retained under section 469.175, subdivision 3(l)." Qualification Requirements Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 (a) (1) requires two tests for occupied parcels: A. Coverage Test ..."parcels consisting of 70 percent of the area of the district are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots" The coverage required by the parcel to be considered occupied is defined under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(e), which states: "For purposes of this subdivision, a parcel is not occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots unless 15 percent of the area of the parcel contains building, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots." B. Condition of Buildings Test ..."and 20 percent of the buildings are, structurally substandard; and 30 percent of the other buildings require substantial renovation or clearance to remove existing conditions such as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete Page 4 buildings not suitable for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the health, safety, and general well-being of the community." Structurally substandard is defined under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b), which states: "For purposes of this subdivision, `structurally substandard' shall mean containing defects in structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities, light and ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors, which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify substantial renovation or clearance." Definition of Substantial Renovation Because "Substantial renovation" can mean different things to different people, LHB has attempted to clarify exactly what we consider to be "substantial renovation" as it relates to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(a) (1). a. First we researched national standards as to how much building owners should budget for annual maintenance and repair on their buildings as a percentage of replacement cost of the building. , 1. According to the University of California "Facilities Renewal Budget Model" report of 1999, building owners should budget between two and three percent of current replacement value of their buildings for maintenance and repair work. This does not include routine janitorial work and routine items such as changing light bulbs and filters. 2. According to the Building Research Board of the National Research Council, one and one-half to three percent of a building's replacement value should be budgeted for maintenance and repair. b. Based on this information, LHB utilized two and one-half percent as the desired amount of maintenance and repair that should be budgeted annually to keep a building in good working condition. We recognize through experience that only a small percentage of sophisticated building owners actually budget for and spend this amount of money every year on maintenance and repair. This is because most business owners are driven .by other budgetary issues and tend to neglect the building maintenance and repair line items in their annual budgets. c. By establishing how much a building owner. should be budgeting per year for maintenance and repairs, LHB is of the opinion that we could more easily establish an amount that would be considered "substantial" in comparison. If an owner is budgeting 2.5 percent of the building's replacementcost annually, most business owners or home owners would have to take out a loan to cover the cost of a substantial building improvement. Assuming they had a fixed level of income to work with, they would have to keep the loan payment at a level very near the original 2.5 percent they should have been budgeting each year. In Page 5 addition, they still would have to budget for the original 2.5 percent on top pf the loan. In most cases, the mortgage terms would have to extend out to a point beyond the life expectancy of the building they were trying to improve, as most buildings built in the past fifty years are not designed to last beyond 40 years. d. Based on the calculations described above, we have defined substantial renovation for purposes of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(a)(1), as renovation with costs exceeding 20% of the building's replacement value. 2. Buildings are not eligible to be considered structurally substandard unless they meet certain additional criteria, as set forth in Subdivision 10(c) which states: "A building is not structurally substandard if itis in compliance with the building code applicable to new buildings or could be modified to satisfy the building code at a cost of less than 15 percent of the cost of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on the site. The municipality may find that a building is not disqualified as structurally substandard under the preceding sentence on the basis of reasonably available evidence, such as the size, type, and age of the building, the average cost of plumbing, electrical, or structural repairs, or other similar reliable evidence." "Items of evidence that support such a conclusion [that the building is not disqualified] include recent fire or police inspections, on-site property appraisals or housing inspections, exterior evidence of deterioration, or other similar reliable evidence." PART 3 — PROCEDURES FOLLOWED A. LHB was able to schedule interior and exterior inspections for all three buildings in the proposed TIF District. Inspections were conducted on October 13, 2005. B. LHB also reviewed the language of the Eagan 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update related to the area including this proposed TIF District. PART 4 FINDINGS A. Coverage Test 1. The total square foot area of each parcel in the proposed TIF District was obtained from City records, GIS mapping and -site verification. 2. The total square foot area of buildings and site improvements on the parcels in the proposed TIF District was obtained from City records, GIS mapping and site verification. Page 6 3. The percentage of coverage for each parcel in the proposed TIF District was computed to determine if the 15 percent minimum requirement was met. The total square footage of parcels meeting the 15 percent requirement was divided into the total square footage of the entire district to determine if the 70 percent requirement was met. Finding: The proposed TIF District met the coverage test under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(e), which resulted in parcels consisting of 75.5 percent of the area of the proposed TIF District being occupied by buildings, streets, utilities or paved drives or parking lots (Diagram 2). This exceeds the 70 percent area coverage requirement for the proposed TIF District under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10a (a) (1). Diagram 2 Shaded area denotes area of parcels "improved" by buildings, streets, utilities or paved drives or parking lots Page 7 B. Condition of Building Test 1. Replacement Cost, The first step in evaluating a building to determine if it is substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or clearance is to determine its replacement cost. This is the cost of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on site. Replacement costs were researched using R.S. Means Cost Works square foot models for 2005. A replacement cost was calculated by first establishing building use (office, retail, residential, etc.), building construction type (wood, concrete, masonry, etc.), and building size to obtain the appropriate median replacement cost, which factors in the costs of construction in Eagan, Minnesota. Replacement cost includes labor, materials, and the contractor's overhead and profit. Replacement costs do not include architectural fees, legal fees or other "soft" costs not directly related to construction activities. Replacement cost for each building is tabulated in Appendix A. 2. Code Deficiencies The next step in evaluating a building is to determine what code deficiencies exist with respect to such building. Code deficiencies are those conditions for a building which are not in compliance with current building codes applicable to new buildings in the State of Minnesota. Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), specifically provides that a building cannot be considered structurally substandard if its code deficiencies are not at least 1.5 percent of the replacement cost of the building. As -a result, it was necessary to determine the extent of code deficiencies for each building in the proposed TIF District. The evaluation was made by reviewing all available information with respect to such buildings contained in City Building Inspection records and making interior and exterior inspections of the buildings. LHB utilizes the 2003 Minnesota State Building Code as the official code for our evaluations. The Minnesota State Building Code is actually a series of provisional codes written specifically for Minnesota only requirements, adoption of several international codes, and amendments to the adopted international codes. We chose not to count energy code deficiencies toward the thresholds required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b) and 10(c), due to concerns expressed by the State of Minnesota Court of Appeals in the Walser Auto Sales, Inc. vs. City of Richfield case filed November 13, 2001. After identifying the code deficiencies in each building, we used R.S. Means Cost Works 2005, Unit and Assembly Costs to determine the cost of correcting the identified deficiencies. We were than able to compare the correction costs with the Page 8 replacement cost of each building to determine if the costs for correcting code deficiencies meet the required 15 percent threshold. Finding: Three (3) out of three (3) buildings (100 percent) in the proposed TIF District contained code deficiencies exceeding the 15 percent threshold required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c). A complete Building Code and Condition Deficiency report for each building in the proposed TIF District can be found in Appendix B of this report. 3. System Condition Deficiencies If a building meets the minimum code deficiency threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), then in order for such building to be "structurally substandard" under Minnesota Statutes,' Section '469.174, Subdivision 10(b), the building's defects or deficiencies should be of sufficient total significance to justify "substantial renovation or clearance." Based on this definition, LHB re-evaluated each of the buildings that met the code deficiency threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), to determine if the total deficiencies warranted "substantial renovation or clearance" based on the criteria we outlined above. System condition deficiencies are a measurement of defects or substantial deterioration in site elements, structure, exterior envelope, mechanical and electrical components, fire protection and emergency systems, interior partitions, ceilings, floors and doors. The evaluation of system condition deficiencies was made by reviewing all available information contained in City records, and making interior and exterior inspections of the buildings. LHB only identified system condition deficiencies that were visible upon our inspection of the building or contained in City records. We did not consider the amount of "service life" used up for a particular component unless it was an obvious part of that component's deficiencies. After identifying the system condition deficiencies in each building, we used our professional judgment to determine if the list of deficiencies would total more than 20 percent of the replacement value of the building'when added to the cost of total code deficiencies. For example, if a building with a replacement value of 100 thousand dollars had 17 percent code deficiencies, we would look at the list of system condition deficiencies and make a professional judgment that the cost of fixing the system condition deficiencies would be at least $3,000 (3 percent), in order for that building to be considered substandard. Finding: In our professional opinion, two (2) of the three (3) buildings (67 percent) in the proposed TIF District are structurally substandard to a degree requiring substantial Page 9 renovation or clearance, because of defects in structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities, light and ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify substantial renovation or clearance. This exceeds the 20 percent requirement of Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (ii). Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (iii) Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (iii) requires that at least 30 percent of the other buildings (i.e., all buildings excluding the 20 percent minimum standard) meet the Subdivision . 10a (1), clause (iii) test in which the "other" buildings require substantial renovation or clearance to remove existing conditions such as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete buildings not suitable for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the health, safety, and general well-being of the community. Finding: 3 out of the 3 buildings (100 percent) in the proposed Renewal and Renovation District exhibit existing conditions warranting renovation or clearance as defined by Minnesota Statutes Subd. 10a. (1) (iii), described as follows: As noted above, two buildings (TIF parcel 6 and 8) were found to be structurally substandard as defined by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivsion 10 (b) and (c). The factors under Subdivision 10a (1), clause (iii) are broader, and include "obsolete buildings not suitable for conversion." Buildings with deficiencies significant enough to meet the structurally substandard test are, in effect, buildings that are obsolete and not suitable for. improvement. Therefore, both buildings found to be substandard in Appendix A and B also meet the lesser "obsolescence" test of Subdivsion 10a (1), clause (iii). TIF Parcel 7 —The code deficiencies in this building exceeded the 15 percent, criteria for being considered substandard, but the general condition deficiencies in addition to the code deficiencies did not exceed 20 percent which was established as our. minimum criteria for a substandard finding. LHB reviewed City documents, including the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update. Originally, the area West of Biscayne (including the parcels in the proposed TIF District) were guided toward industrial uses, but the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update changed the guide designation to Retail Commercial and the zoning to Neighborhood Business. One of the reasons for the change was the age and condition of the properties, suggesting that they should not be encouraged to continue as industrial uses. This change in guide designation and zoning was the culmination of more than 10 years of discussion regarding the temporary nature of the industrial uses in the area as Page 10 property around it developed into permanent residential uses, consistent with their guide designations. The definition of the area as Neighborhood Business also served the purpose of providing an opportunity for retail and services to be established in a part of the City that does not currently have them. Based on our review of the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update, we find this parcel to be an obsolete land use incompatible with the guide designation and zoning for these parcels and the surrounding residential neighborhoods. C. Distribution of substandard structures Much of this report has focused on the condition of individual buildings as they relate to requirements identified by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 and 10a. It is also important to look at the distribution of substandard buildings throughout the geographic area of the proposed TIF District. Finding: Buildings meeting the requirements of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 and 10a are reasonably distributed throughout the geographic area of the proposed TIF District (Diagram 3).

TO: Tom Hedges, City Administrator FROM: Michael G. Dougherty, City Attorney DATE: March 28, 2006 RE: Diffley Marketplace — County Action Our File No. 206-23893 In response to your inquiry, the following is my analysis of the situation governing the Diffley Marketplace proposal. EXISTING CONDITIONS • Development consists of two parcels; one with accesses to Diffley Road and Patrick Road, and the other with access to Daniel Drive • Dakota County manages Diffley Road and the access thereto; City of Eagan manages Daniel Drive and access thereto • Developer proposes to replat both parcels into one lot; Proposed plat includes an easement dedicated to Dakota County restricting access to Diffley Road to an entrance of 60 feet at one location. No similar easement exists in favor of the City with respect to Daniel Drive. ANALYSIS 1. County's Role in Plat Approval. Preliminary plats are to be submitted by the City to the County Engineer for written comments and recommendations. The Engineer's review is limited to factors of County significance in conformance with County Guidelines. The County Guidelines must provide for development and redevelopment scenarios, allow for variances and reflect consideration of any City guidelines. Written comments from the Engineer must state whether the plat meets the County Guidelines and describe any modification necessary to bring the plat into conformity with the Guidelines. Failure to obtain the written comments and. recommendations of the Engineer in no manner affects the platting of the property. In the event the City does not amend the plat to conform to the Engineer's recommendations, representatives Hedges March 28, 2006 Page 2 from the County and City shall meet to discuss the differences and determine whether changes to the plat are appropriate prior to final approval. Can the County impose conditions to the approval of a plat? I find no legal authority that grants the County any authority to require dedications, exactions or conditions to its approval of plats (e.g. access restrictions). While I am aware that there is a 1970 law that grants Dakota County Board the authorization to approve plats, there is nothing within the law that addresses dedications or conditions. What standard must the County exercise in its plat approval decisions? The County Board's decision must not be 'arbitrary and capricious. In other words, it must have a rational basis related to promoting public health, safety and general welfare. What is the City's role with respect to plat approval? Preliminary plats must be submitted to the City. The City may employ a qualified person to check and verify the surveys and plat and to determine the suitability of the plat from the standpoint of community planning. If the proposed plat abuts a County road, the City is required to submit the same to the County Engineer for written comments and recommendations. Following City approval of a preliminary plat, the City shall submit to the County Board notice of itsapproval along with a statement addressing the disposition of any comments or recommendations made by the County Engineer. In the event that the City did not amend the plat to conform to the recommendations, representatives from the County and City shall meet to discuss the differences. The law does not address the effects of a continued disagreement. However, the statute does state that the time period for approval continues to run and there is a presumption of approval if not acted upon within the time frame (120 days from preliminary plats and 60 days for final plat). What standard must the City exercise in its plat approval decision? As noted with respect to the County, the City cannot be arbitrary or capricious. Can the County remove the Diffley access as part of the plat approval? As noted, I am unaware of any authority for the County being able to place conditions on the plat approval. Similarly, absent the planned development process, the City would not be able to remove the access to Daniel Drive. However, since the proposal is part of a planned development district, the City retains the right to remove or modify the Daniel Drive access as part of its zoning requirement. Can the County require the City to provide full access to Daniel Drive as a condition of approving a full or % access on Diffley Road? The answer to this question needs to be clarified as being distinct from the discussion of plat approvals. As stated above, the County can not require such action in connection with a plat approval, nor could it require the developer or City to install a right turn lane or medians within Diffley Road. However, the County "may" condition a variance approval . if such condition is consistent with State statute and County Guideline and is further rationally related to mitigating the consequences of the granting of the variance. Hedges March 28, 2006 Page 3 As noted, the County manages Diffley Road. The County's desire for a signalized intersection (or a % intersection, etc.) is solely a decision it can choose to implement when it has appropriate funding. In short, a decision to grant a % intersection today would not foreclose the County's opportunity to place a median in lieu thereof sometime in the future. Similarly, the opening of a full access to Daniel Drive today would not foreclose a future city council from placing a median in Daniel Drive to foreclose left-hand turns from the development. What legal issues presently need to be addressed? As discussed earlier, the County Engineer's comments with respect to the plat should be limited to whether the Diffley access is at the right location. The plat is simply one lot and does not include any right of way. To the extent that the County wishes to modify Diffley Road to meet the County's needs, it may do so now or whenever it chooses. 'I am unaware of any legal basis .for requiring the City or developer to make access modifications, and therefore approval of the plat should not be an issue. In the area of the access to Daniel Drive and the request for a variance to the County's spacing guidelines, those decisions rest with the City. Council.. A decision by the County Board on the variance request needs to be rationally based and supported by the facts. Assuming that the board approves the request with the condition of full access to Daniel Drive, and the City disagrees with the County's actions, the Council may appeal the Board's decision. Otherwise, if the City is receptive to the County's conditions, it may so act upon the access to Daniel Drive as part of the planned development. Irrespective of the variance request, the ultimate access to Daniel Drive is within the City's purview as a result of the planned development and site plan approval. Again, so long as the City's decision is not arbitrary and capricious, it will be upheld. The development is entitled to reasonable and convenient access. Even without an access to Daniel Drive, the property would be served by accesses to Diffley and to Lexington Avenue. Finally, I note that improvements made to a Dakota County road usually require participation of the host city. To the extent that accommodation cannot be reached between the County, City and developer as to the type of access to Diffley Road from the development, an important discussion may be required as to how and when the funds are available for the type of improvements anticipated for Diffley Road, including signalization.

Payment of application fee JUSTORICAL REVIEW On March 25, 2005 Revestors signed a purchase agreement for 8.55 acres (372,450 square feet) from Red fine Enterprises, LLC (Oberg) for $1,300,000 or $3.50 per square foot. The sellers indicated that the adjacent parcel might be available for purchase. We attempted to negotiate with the owner (Schoenecker) by offering to purchase the .99 acre site (43,125 square foot) property for $150,000 ($3.50 per square foot), the value of the land only. On April 21, 2005 Schoenecker rejected out offers and proceeded in his attempt to sell his property to some other potential party with an asking price of $330,000. We then attended five meetings between our development team and Eagan staff during May and June (5/9, 5/16, 5/17, 6/1, &z 6115) with the developer attempting to create a vision and plan for the 8.55 acre site that would be desirable for the community, attractive to potential tenants and supported by the city. By June 29, 2005 our assessment was that a solid relationship was developing between all parties to the transaction and we were confident that a high quality project would be advanced so on that date we closed the purchase of the Oberg land.. On the following day, June 30, 2005 we once again met with Eagan staff to prepare for a meeting with two Eagan Finance Team members together with other staff and both developers (Revestors and Manley). This meeting occurred on July 5, 2005 where a decision was reached for both developers to voluntarily delay there independent plans for individual adjacent parcels to provide time to investigate a master plan for the entire parcel. This meeting resulted in a predevelopment agreement with the developers requested to fund the estimated cost ($20,0011) of researching the possibilities. Revestors deposited their share of the requested deposit ($16,800) on August 12, 2005, When Manley decided against making their share of the deposit, Revestors contributed the balance of the deposit ($3,200) on August 31, 2005. As progress continued to develop on a master plan for time entire project we were encouraged to contact Schoenecker to engage in a second attempt to negotiate the purchase of his land. The belief was that by purchasing his land we would be We to move some of the wetlands, provide water filtration and retention for the entire development, add 10,000 rentable square feet to the phase I buildings, allow the city to vacate most of the road that only served the Schoenecker parcel and clean up the site by removing the existing old building. It was stated that this purchase by Revestors would not negatively affect the consideration of a redevelopment district by the city but rather would enhance and protect those options. On Omber 6, 2005 we initiated another round of negotiating with Schoenecker which resulted in a purchase agreement to acquire his project for $300,000 indicating that it would dost an additional $30,000 to remove the building. The result of this purchase is that we would spend $330,000 to acquire a property that would have a resulting.value of $150,000 if valued equal to the Oberg site. On December 22, 2005 we deposited $5,100 with the city together with our city submittal for the phase I project. We attempted to close the Schoenecker purchase on December 29, 2005 but it was temporarily delayed to cleat up a minor title issue. Meetings have continued with the architect, general contractor, owners, developers and the city staff. In addition to these regular meetings additional meetings have taken place with outside special consultants to advance the direction the entire team supported. On January 23, 2006 we met with representatives from Ehlers to help us understand the redevelopment process which included a request for specific information they needed to support their research. This requested information was supplied to Ehlers on February 3, 2006. The information that was supplied resulted in a meeting on February 21, 2006 with Ehlers, city staff members, the city attorney and our development team members. The information shared at that meeting left our development team totally confused with a contrast between the information requested on January 23, 2006 and the conclusions offered on February 21, 2006. The information provided with this historical review is our attempt to cooperate with a new. understanding that developed at this last meeting. RESPONSE The goal of the new questions seems to be an attempt to determine the difference between the cost of — acquiring the additional acreage including the cost of returning the site to the condition of undeveloped land and the value of the resulting undeveloped land. 2Wi1� We have not been negotiating with Hyster, Wood, or Mellon and therefore have no valid way of forecasting the potential purchase price. Perhaps legal counsel for the city has an estimate for you to use, Our position is that the Hyster, Wood and Mellon properties are not more valuable than the Schoenecker property which was purchased for $300,000. ik Schoeneeker Agam Site Sau= no tape .99 acres 43,125 square feet r $300,000 Da=fifion $30,000 1 -at 1 Cost $330,000 Hyster .70 acres 30,5010 square feet $ 7 $25,000 $ 7 Wood .88 acres 38,350 square fee $ 7 $25,000 $' Mellon .SS acres 38,3.50 square fee $ 7 $ 7 $ 7 We see two different ways the value of the resulting land could be determined. 1. The value of the purchase of the Oberg land ($3.50 per square foot) 2. The value of the purchase of the Oberg land plus land purchase commissions and fees ($4.90 per square foot) It is clear fiom this analysis, and consistent with otir belief, that an undeveloped laud value of not more than $5.00 ptr square foot should be applied Cast-OfAgguiring.Plus Demoli ' n Schoenecker $330,000 Hyster $ ?

We are not interested in cash flawingor purchasing additional land above these values. If the city has an interest in paying higher prices and a vehicle for cash flowing and being reimbursed for the difference between the actual costs and the $5.00 per square foot we would pay for the land, then we should proceed with this option.

The proposed TIF District is located in the City of Eagan, in a general area bounded by State Highway 3 (South Robert Trail), Red Pine Lane, Biscayne Avenue and Gun Club Road (Diagram 1). The purpose of LHB's work was to determine whether the proposed TIF District meets the statutory requirements for coverage, and whether three buildings on seven parcels, located within the proposed TIF District, meet the qualifications required for a Renewal and Renovation District. Diagram 1— Proposed TIF District SCOPE OF WORK The proposed district consists of seven (7) parcels with three (3) industrial structures. All of the buildings in the proposed district received an on-site interior and exterior inspection. The buildings were inspected in October 2005. Building code and Condition Deficiency reports for each building inspected by LBB are located in Appendix B. Page 3 21q 37 o AIN 1 M F ^� L A lV E. C9'.!.u.i; �' Q a 313 I� I A50 Mum 4 p A.

Page 3 21q 37 CONCLUSION After inspecting and evaluating the properties within the proposed TIF District and applying current statutory criteria for a Renewal and Renovation District under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10a, it is our professional opinion that the proposed TIF District qualifies as a Renewal and Renovation District. The remainder of this report describes our process and findings in detail. PART 2 — MINNESOTA STATUTE 469.174, SUBDIVISION 10a REOUIREMENTS The properties were inspected in accordance with the following requirements under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), which states: Interior Inspection "The municipality may not make such determination [that the building is structurally substandard] without an interior inspection of the property..." Exterior Inspection and Other Means "An interior inspection of the property is not required, if the municipality finds that (1) the municipality or authority is unable to gain access to the property after using its best efforts to obtain permission from the party that owns or controls the property; and (2) the evidence otherwise supports a reasonable conclusion that the building is structurally substandard." Documentation "Written documentation of the findings and reasons why an interior inspection was not conducted must be made and retained under section 469.175, subdivision 3(1)." Qualification Requirements Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 (a) (1) requires two tests for occupied parcels: A. Coverage Test ..."parcels consisting of 70 percent of the area of the district are occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots" The coverage required by the parcel to be considered occupied is defined under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(e), which states: "For purposes of this subdivision, a parcel is not occupied by buildings, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking .lots. unless 15 percent of the area of the parcel contains building, streets, utilities, or paved or gravel parking lots." B. Condition of Buildings Test ..."and 20 percent, of the buildings are structurally substandard; and 30 percent of the other buildings require substantial renovation or clearance to remove existing conditions such as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete Page 4 buildings not suitable ,for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the health, safety, and general well-being of the community." Structurally substandard is defined under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b), which states: "For purposes of this subdivision, `structurally substandard' shall mean containing defects in structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities, light and ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors, which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify substantial renovation or clearance.." Definition of Substantial Renovation Because "Substantial renovation" can mean different things to different people, LHB has attempted to clarify exactly what we consider to be "substantial renovation" as it relates to Minnesota Statutes, Section. 469.174, Subdivision 10(a) (1). a. First we researched national standards as to how much building owners should budget for annual maintenance and repair on their buildings as'a percentage of replacement cost of the building. 1. According to the University of California "Facilities Renewal Budget Model" report of 1999, building owners should budget between two and three percent of current replacement value of their buildings for maintenance and repair work. This does not include routine janitorial work and routine items such as changing light bulbs and filters. 2. According to the Building Research Board of the National Research Council, one and one-half to three percent of a building's replacement value should be budgeted for maintenance and repair. b. Based on this information, LHB utilized two and one-half percent as the desired amount of maintenance and repair that should be budgeted annually to keep a building in good working condition. We recognize through experience that only a small percentage of sophisticated building owners actually budget for and spend this amount of money every year on maintenance and repair. This is because most business owners are driven by other budgetary issues and tend to neglect the building maintenance and repair line items in their annual budgets. c. By establishing how much a building owner should be budgeting per year for maintenance and repairs, LHB is of the opinion that we could more easily establish an amount that would be considered "substantial" in comparison. If an owner is budgeting 2.5 percent of the building's replacement cost annually, most business owners or home owners would have to take out a loan to cover the cost of a substantial building improvement. Assuming they had a fixed level of income to work with, they would have to keep the loan payment at a level very near the original 2.5 percent they should have been budgeting each year. In Page 5 219 K addition, they still would have to budget for the original 2.5 percent on top of the loan. In most cases, the mortgage terms would have to extend out to a point beyond the life expectancy of the building they were trying to improve, as most buildings built in the past fifty years are not designed to last beyond 40 years. d. Based on the calculations described above, we have defined substantial renovation for purposes of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(a)(1), as renovation with costs exceeding 20% of the building's replacement value. 2. Buildings are not eligible to be considered structurally substandard unless they meet certain additional criteria, as set forth in Subdivision 10(c) which. states: "A building is not structurally substandard if it is in compliance with the building code applicable to new buildings or could be modified to satisfy the building code at a cost of less than 15 percent of the cost of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on the site. The municipality may find that a building is not disqualified as structurally substandard under the preceding sentence on the basis of reasonably available evidence, such as the size, type, and age of the building, the average cost of plumbing, electrical, or ,structural repairs, or other similar- reliable evidence." "Items of evidence that support such a conclusion [that the building is not disqualified] include recent fire or police. inspections, on-site property appraisals or housing inspections, exterior evidence of deterioration, or other similar reliable evidence." PART 3 — PROCEDURES FOLLOWED A. LHB was able to schedule interior and exterior inspections for all three buildings in the proposed TIF District. Inspections were conducted on October 13, 2005. B. LHB also reviewed the language of the Eagan 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update related to the area including this proposed TIF District. PART 4 — FINDINGS A. Coverage Test 1. The total square foot area of each parcel in the proposed TIF District was obtained from City records, GIS mapping and site verification. 2. The total square foot area of buildings and site improvements on the parcels in the proposed TIF District was obtained from. City records, GIS mapping and site verification. Page 6 21 9 to, 3. The percentage of coverage for each parcel in the proposed TIF District was computed to determine if the 15 percent minimum requirement was met. The total square footage of parcels meeting the 15 percent requirement was divided into the total square footage of the entire district to determine if the 70 percent requirement was met. Finding: The proposed TIF District met the coverage test under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(e), which resulted in parcels consisting of 75.5 percent of the area of the proposed TIF District being occupied by buildings, streets, utilities or paved drives or parking lots (Diagram 2). This exceeds the 70 percent area coverage requirement for the proposed TIF District under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10a (a) (1). Diagram 2 Shaded area denotes area of parcels "improved" by buildings, streets, utilities or paved drives or parking lots Page 7 219 M B. Condition of Building Test 1. Replacement Cost The first step in evaluating a building to determine if it is substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or clearance, is to determine its replacement cost. This is the cost 'of constructing a new structure of the same square footage and type on site. Replacement costs were researched using R.S. Means Cost Works square foot models for 2005. A replacement cost was calculated by first establishing building use (office, retail, residential, etc.), building construction type (wood, concrete, masonry, etc.), and building size to obtain the appropriate ,median replacement cost, which factors in the costs of construction in.Eagan, Minnesota. Replacement cost includes labor, materials, and the contractor's overhead and profit. Replacement costs do not include architectural fees, legal fees or other "soft" costs not directly related to construction activities. Replacement cost for each building is tabulated in Appendix A. 2. Code Deficiencies The next step in evaluating a building is to determine what code deficiencies exist with respect to such building. Code deficiencies are those conditions fora building which are not in compliance with current building codes applicable to new buildings in the State of Minnesota. Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), specifically provides that a building cannot be considered structurally substandard if its code deficiencies are not at least 15 percent of the replacement cost of the building. As a result, it was necessary to determine the extent of code deficiencies for each building in the proposed TIF District. The evaluation was made by reviewing all available information with respect to such buildings contained in City Building Inspection records and making interior and exterior inspections of the buildings. LHB utilizes the 2003 Minnesota State Building Code as the official code for our evaluations. The Minnesota State Building Code is actually a series of provisional codes written specifically for Minnesota only requirements, adoption of several international codes, and amendments to the adopted international codes. We chose not to count energy code deficiencies toward the thresholds required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b) and 10(c), due to concerns expressed by the State of Minnesota Court of Appeals in the Walser Auto Sales, Inc. vs. City of Richfield case filed November 13, 2001. After identifying the code deficiencies in each building, we used R.S. Means Cost Works 2005, Unit and Assembly Costs to determine the cost of correcting the identified deficiencies. 'We were than able to compare the correction costs with the Page 8 replacement cost of each building to determine if the costs for correcting code deficiencies meet the required 15 percent threshold. Finding: Three (3) out of three (3) buildings (100 percent) in the proposed TIF District contained code deficiencies exceeding the 15 percent threshold required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c). A complete Building Code and Condition Deficiency report for each building in the proposed TIF District can be found in Appendix B of this report. 3. System Condition Deficiencies If a building meets the minimum code deficiency threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), then in order for such building to be "structurally substandard" under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(b), the building's defects or deficiencies should be of sufficient total significance to justify "substantial renovation or clearance." Based on this definition, LHB re-evaluated each of the buildings that met the code deficiency threshold under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10(c), to determine if the total deficiencies warranted "substantial renovation or clearance" based on the criteria we outlined above. System condition deficiencies are a measurement of defects or substantial deterioration in site elements, structure, exterior envelope, mechanical and electrical components, fire protection and emergency systems, interior partitions, ceilings, floors and doors. The evaluation of system condition deficiencies was made by reviewing all available information contained in City records, and making interior and exterior inspections of the buildings. LHB only identified system condition deficiencies that were visible upon our inspection of the building or contained in City records. We did not consider the amount of "service life" used up for a particular component unless it was an obvious part of that component's deficiencies. After identifying the system condition deficiencies in each building, we used our professional judgment to determine if the list of deficiencies would total more than 20 percent of the replacement value of the building when added to the cost of total code deficiencies. For example, if a building with a replacement value of 100 thousand dollars had 17 percent code deficiencies, we would look at the list of system condition deficiencies and make a professional judgment that the cost of fixing the system condition deficiencies would be at least $3,000 (3 percent), in order for that building to be considered substandard. Finding: In our professional opinion, two (2) proposed TIF District are structurally Page 9 of the three (3) buildings (67 percent) in the substandard to a degree requiring substantial renovation or clearance, because of defects in structural elements or a combination of deficiencies in essential utilities and facilities, light and ventilation, fire protection including adequate egress, layout and condition of interior partitions, or similar factors which defects or deficiencies are of sufficient total significance to justify substantial renovation or clearance. This exceeds the 20 percent requirement of Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (ii). Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (iii) Subdivision 10a. (a) (1) (iii) requires that at least 30 percent of the other buildings (i.e., all buildings excluding the 20 percent minimum standard) meet the Subdivision 10a (1), clause (iii) test in which the "other" buildings require substantial renovation or clearance to remove existing conditions such as: inadequate street layout, incompatible uses or land use relationships, overcrowding of buildings on the land, excessive dwelling unit density, obsolete buildings not suitable for improvement or conversion, or other identified hazards to the health, safety, and general well-being of the community. Finding: 3 out of the 3 buildings (100 percent) in the proposed Renewal and Renovation District exhibit existing conditions warranting renovation or clearance as defined by Minnesota Statutes Subd. 10a. (1) (iii), described as follows: • As noted above, two buildings (TIF parcel 6 and 8) were found to be structurally substandard as defined by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivsion 10 (b) and (c). The factors under Subdivision 10a (1), clause (iii) are broader, and include "obsolete buildings not suitable for conversion." Buildings with deficiencies significant enough to meet the structurally substandard test are, in effect, buildings that are obsolete and not suitable for improvement. Therefore, both buildings found to be substandard in Appendix A and B also meet the lesser "obsolescence" test of Subdivsion 10a (1), clause (iii). • TIF Parcel 7 —The code deficiencies in this building exceeded the 15 percent criteria for being considered substandard, but the general condition .deficiencies in addition to the code deficiencies did not exceed 20 percent which was established as our minimum criteria for a substandard finding. LHB reviewed City documents, including the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update. Originally, the area West of Biscayne (including the parcels in the proposed TIF District) were guided toward industrial uses, but the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update changed the guide designation to Retail Commercial and the zoning to Neighborhood Business. One of the reasons for the change was the age and condition of the properties, suggesting that they should not be encouraged to continue as industrial uses. This change in guide designation and zoning was the culmination of more than 10 years of discussion regarding the temporary nature. of the industrial uses in the area as Page 10 20 P property around it developed into permanent residential uses, consistent with their guide designations. The definition of the area as Neighborhood Business also served the.purpose of providing an opportunity for retail and. services to be established in a part of the City that does not currently have them. Based on our review of the 2000 Comprehensive Plan Update, we find this parcel to be an obsolete land use incompatible with the guide designation and zoning for these parcels and the surrounding residential neighborhoods. C. Distribution of substandard structures Much of this report has focused on the condition of individual buildings as they relate to requirements identified by Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 and 10a. It is also important to look at the distribution of substandard buildings throughout the geographic area of the proposed TIF District. Finding: Buildings meeting the requirements of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subdivision 10 and 10a are reasonably distributed throughout the geographic area of the proposed TIF District (Diagram 3).

RECEIVE PETITION AND DIRECT CITY STAFF TO REQUEST FORMAL APPLICATION FOR HOUSING IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT CONSIDERATION, CEDAR BLUFFS HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To receive a petition from the Cedar Bluffs Homeowners Association and Direct City Staff to Request Formal Application for Housing Improvement District Consideration for their property. FACTS: ➢ In August 2005, the City Council was approached by the Cedar Bluffs Homeowners Association regarding the potential creation of a City policy for the creation of Housing Improvement Districts, which permit homeowners associations to work with cities to finance improvements to common areas that cannot be financed by other means. ➢ In response, the City Council adopted a policy on September 20, 2005 that would permit consideration of petitions and the process by which applications would be reviewed. ➢ The Cedar Bluffs Homeowners Association, which includes 120 units on approximately 11.4 acres, has submitted a preliminary application and petition. The preliminary application is consistent with the intent of the Housing Improvement Area policy in that: o The proposed improvements address several policy goals concerning the preservation of housing stock as stated below. o The physical improvements meet the policy guidelines in that they are restricted to common areas, are primarily exterior improvements, are integral to the operation of the project and are of a permanent nature. o The association has addressed the basic policy criteria demonstrating that HIA financial assistance is last resort financing. Cedar Bluffs has provided documentation showing that the improvements cannot be paid with existing funds; several letters of denial by lenders have also been provided. o The association has met the petition requirement by submitting petitions from 51% of property owners requesting a Housing Improvement Area be established. ➢ Although only a proposal, the Cedar Bluffs Housing Improvement Area is consistent with the City's adopted policy in that: o It will promote neighborhood stabilization and revitalization by the removal of blight and/or upgrading of the existing housing stock in the neighborhood. o It will likely increase property values and therefore increase the tax base of the City in order to ensure the long-term ability of the City to provide adequate services for its residents. o Due to increased property values and a proposed amendment to the Association's Declaration prohibiting resale to investors, it will stabilize and/or increase the owner -occupancy level within the neighborhood. ➢ The proposed improvements are specific to common areas and include: o Replacement of 480 window units o Replacement of concrete aprons located on the front side of all 20 buildings o Repair of foundation block on 20 buildings, as necessary o Replacement of concrete pool deck o Replacement of fence around pool area ➢ The estimated loan amount for these improvements is $750,000. ➢ The next phase of the review is a formal submittal of improvement plans, detailed financial plans and a fee to cover City costs associated with the detailed review. ➢ This action item is a checkpoint for the City Council to authorize the request for the formal application and to permit staff to notice and schedule a public hearing for the consideration of a district when the review is completed. ATTACHMENTS: ➢ Preliminary Application Form and sample Petition on pages through ➢ The complete Preliminary Application is available in Community Development if desired. ➢ Location map on page 224 Item 2.

City of Eagan 230 k, July 20, 2004 Dear Cedar Bluff Townhome Owner: r OmEa Ea2 The attached Annual Report has been prepared at the direction of the Board of Directors of Cedar Bluff Townhome Condominium Association, Inc., in keeping with the requirements of the Bylaws, Bylaw 39. The Association's fiscal year ends on June 30d' and typically the members should look forward to receiving the Annual Report in September. However, when we assumed management responsibilities last December we were not provided with anything resembling a complete set of organized accounting records for the 6/30103 fiscal year end, and indeed no monthly financial statements had been prepared for the five months of the current fiscal year- either ,• from July through November 2003. Therefore it was impossible to conduct an audit until the farmer management company hired a bookkeeping service to create a general ledger by reconstructing all of the financial activity of the first 17 months. Following receipt of that information this spring, the books were then audited by a CPA firm hired by the Association. The Association realized an overall net surplus of $38,715• during its first fiscal year. In accordance with current preferred accounting practice, the Association's financial activity is separated into Operating and Replacement Funds. The Operating Fund contributed $17,990 of this surplus. However, there was no formal allocation of the monthly assessment income to the Replacement Fund. The Replacement Fund reported a surplus of $20,725. Aside from $8 of interest, all of the income was realized from the'two months of working capital contributions collected at the closing of the sale of each unit. There were no capital expenditures charged to the Replacement Fund. As of June 30, 2003, total Member's Equity amounted to $38,715, and cash on hand totaled $25,505.

General Redevelopment Impact of Eminent Domain Legislation on Redevelopment Districts - At the Council's direction, staff has been in contact with members of the Legislature and its lobbying organizations to determine the impact of the current bills being passed through this session with respect to eminent domain. Stam continues to communicate positions that would grandfather the ability to use eminent domain under the existing standards in existing TIF redevelopment districts to perform property assembly and complete the redevelopment of those areas. Staff is analyzing the bills on an ongoing basis to determine how they would or would not affect the City's existing districts. Additional information on the most current bills will be provided as that information is received. Cedar Grove Redevelopment District • First Phase Development Plans — Staff and the developer continue to meet to coordinate the submittal and review of the first phase development applications. The developer and staff have also held the fust of several meetings with the APrC to discuss the overall approach to the parks and recreation needs of the area and with the Engineering Division to masterplan the utilities for the whole area, even though the fust phase will only permit the installation of a portion of the system. • Silver Bell Center Remodeling and Redevelopment — The owners of Silver Bell Center, next to McDonalds, are reviewing information related to the ponding adjacent to their property to determine what limitations or opportunities there may be for the remodeling of the center and additions to the site. The first phase of their plan would be to consolidate some of the current tenants and some new tenants into the west end of the mall, demolish the east end and redo the fagade of the remaining center to conform to CGD standards. A second phase would involve a proposed subdivision of the property to add two pads for freestanding buildings on the east end of the site. • Acquisition and Relocation Plans — Negotiations are underway with the owners Ellingson and Associates, Eagle Valley Bank and Minsk Market for acquisition of those properties. Several other property owners are actively seeking new sites for their businesses. • Communications Activities — The Cedar Grove Gateway, the monthly, newsletter update, is being distributed to businesses in the area. Website updates also continue. Northeast Eagan Redevelopment District • Grand Oaks Development — The first office building is occupied and the retail buildings are beginning to have interior finish work for a number of businesses. Construction is continuing Z35 on the Eagle Valley Bank. Interstate indicates that they will submit plans for, construction of the second office building in the next 60 days. • McGough Office Project — The developer has submitted revised offers to the four remaining property owners in the northeast Eagan/McGough area. Roger Reiling has commissioned a seller's appraisal and has submitted it to McGough. McGough representatives indicate that they intend to offer mediation as a means of resolving the,differences between the offers and the seller's appraisal. • Hwy 55 Parcels — DART Transit, the owner of a substantial number of the properties in the portion of the District south of Hwy 55 has indicated an intention to prepare a development/redevelopment plan for that part of the district. DART representatives are scheduled to meet with staff on April 5 to discuss their progress in this regard. Southeast Eagan Masterplan • Revestor's development plan is before the City Council on the regular agenda on April 4 and the receipt of the Substandard Report and authorization .to proceed with consideration of creation of a. renewal and revitalization district is on the EDA agenda.
