Councilmember Bakken suggested and the City Council concurred not to change the City's current enforcement practices with regard to outdoor storage of vehicles.

As a part of that process, the City must formally indicate its support for the project.

Agenda Information Memo January 3, 2008 Eagan City Council Meeting G. BLUE GENTIAN CIRCLE RIGHT-OF-WAY VACATION ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Receive the petition to vacate public right-of-way known as Blue Gentian Circle and schedule a public hearing to be held on February 5, 2008. FACTS: • On December 11, 2007, City staff initiated a petition requesting the vacation of public right-of-way for Blue Gentian Circle, from the intersection of Blue Gentian Road to its easterly termini (cul de sac). Blue Gentian Circle is located southeast of the interchange of 1-494 and I-35E, east of TH 55. • Blue Gentian Circle, formerly known as Blue Gentian Road, was never formally dedicated as a public easement or right-of-way. Pursuant to Minn. Stat. 160.05, if a city maintains a road for 6 years (or more); it is deemed dedicated to the public to the width of the roadway and ditches necessary to support the road. The City of Eagan has maintained Blue Gentian Circle, or Blue Gentian Road, for decades. • The purpose of the request is to allow the redevelopment of the residential properties adjacent to Blue Gentian Circle, as well as the public right-of-way, to a proposed office building site with a parking structure. The vacation of this right-of-way would clean up the proposed replat by avoiding any underlying unnecessary public easements. It is anticipated that the proposed development application will be presented to the Council for consideration in February, 2008, to coincide with consideration of this vacation. • The request would vacate the existing right-of-way of Blue Gentian Circle in its entirety. The description for the vacated road is as it is physically laid out and traveled. The right-of-way will not be necessary for public road or easement purposes within the proposed development. • Notices for a public hearing will be published in the legal papers and sent to all potentially affected and/or interested parties for comment prior to the public hearing.

Also, as noted on the 18`h, because of a recent FCC decision and several funding uncertainties on the horizon, staff had hoped to have as much clarity as possible on the budget numbers before bringing them forward for approval. • While there was general agreement that the 2008 BECT/BETC budget reflected historical costs, Councilmember Carlson questioned why personnel costs have gone up $111,000 in three years' time, from approximately $442,000 in 2005 to approximately $553,000 in the 2008 proposed budget. • A history of personnel costs going back to 2003 will help explain the answer: (The FTE figures below reflect budgeted positions.) 2003 act. 2004 act. 2005 act. 2006 act. 2007 bud. 2008 bud. $550,000 $493,000 $442,000 $497,000 $526,000 $553,000 11 FTE 8 FTE 8 FTE 8 FTE 8 FTE • In March 2004, the Eagan City Council was presented with a five-year plan and CIP, along with a recommendation that staffing be reduced from approximately 11 FTEs to 8. • That plan was approved, but there was significant staff transition and the 2005 actual numbers are low because several positions were not filled until later in the year. (For instance, the full-time production specialist position formerly held by Kay Christenson was open from January through April, a part-time receptionist 3~ was not hired until April that year, another part time production assistant position was not filled until November, 2005. Even with unbudgeted unemployment expenses, $34,900 was not expended that year that normally would have been.) • The increases from 2006 to 2007 and from 2007 to 2008 were in the normal 5% range. The 12.5% increase from 2005 to 2006 was because positions were finally filled. Full-time staffing has not increased beyond that allocated number, however additional part-time hourly cablecasters are being used to assist in the popular Web streaming of meetings. • If members have additional questions in advance of the meeting, please contact Administrator Hedges, Director Garrison or Chief Financial Officer Pepper. • Finally, even with approval, it is likely, based on several factors (the final facility location decision, the results of the 2008 state legislative session, the outcome of negotiations with Comcast, and a determination by the federal courts regarding staying the imposition of the FCC orders) that for any one of these reasons or for all of them, staff and the two city council may need to revisit or revise the budget sometime in 2008.

Excluding 4% 28% capital, operating expenses are up $29,233, or Capital 3.5%. Personal Outlay Services 12% Hiuhlictht/Channe 1: Funding uncertainties exist 56% due to recent FCC decisions and the possibility of a statewide franchising bill. If it is ultimately determined that PEG fees may only be used for capital expenditures, as the new FCC ruling is widely interpreted to say at this time, funding for operations would be significantly affected. Financial Impact: If the FCC ruling/interpretation stands, total operating expenditures of $864,631 would have only City contributions (currently $207,000 total) and other revenues (about $30,000) to support them. Absent alternative revenue sources, existing BECT/BETC fund balance could be utilized, but would run out in a couple years. Service Level Impact: Operations would have to be significantly curtailed and/or another funding source must be identified if PEG fees are restricted for capital. Hiehlight/Channe 2 A final determination on BECT's facility location will be made during 2008 as the existing lease expires at the end of 2008. Financial Impact: Because the specific site and lease details are unknown at this time, rent is budgeted at approximately the same level as under the existing lease. $5,000 has been budgeted under Other Professional Services for moving expenses. Service Level Impact: No service level impact of the move is known at this time.

NEW BUSINESS A. PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENT - THE SHOPS AT GRAND OAK ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To approve (or direct Findings of Fact for Denial) a Planned Development Amendment to allow tenant panels on the existing pylon sign for The Shops at Grand Oak located at 2864 and 2874 Highway 55, legally described as Lot 3, Block 1, Grand Oak Five, in the NE 1/4 of Section 2, subject to the conditions listed in the APC minutes. REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: At least three votes. FACTS: The Shops at Grand Oak are part of the Grand Oak office complex approved via a Planned Development in 2005. A Planned Development Amendment to allow a seasonal Farmers Market was approved in 2007, which amended the overall signage plan to include temporary signage and a banner on the pylon sign during the market period. The applicant proposes to add tenant panels onto the existing pylon sign, which is already at the maximum overall signage allowed, 125 square feet. The tenant panel total area is proposed to be 24 square feet, a 20 percent increase. In comparison, a dynamic sign at this location would require 15 inch characters, whereas the proposed panels range from 6 inches to 16 1/2 inches. ? The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on December 20, 2007 and is recommending denial. ISSUES: ? The applicant has proposed a deviation from the Sign Ordinance to increase the overall signage of the pylon sign by 20 percent. ? The APC shared concerns regarding the usefulness or need of the proposed tenant panels given the lack of visibility. The APC also stated that existing building signage is very visible and effective. ? The applicant has submitted a modified request and supporting text (attached). 60 DAY AGENCY ACTION DEADLINE: January 19, 2008 ATTACHMENTS (3): Draft December 20, 2007 APC mint'+Pc on pages through Staff report on pages through E-mail/Graphic from applicant on pages / _through.

Al PLANNING REPORT CITY OF EAGAN REPORT DATE: December 11, 2007 CASE: 02-PA-13-11-07 APPLICANT: Interstate Partners LLC HEARING DATE: December 20, 2007 PROPERTY OWNER: Interstate Partners LLC APPLICATION DATE: Nov. 20, 2007 REQUEST: Planned Development Amendment PREPARED BY: Sarah Thomas LOCATION: 2864 and 2874 Highway 55 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: SA, Special Area ZONING: PD, Planned Development SUMMARY OF REQUEST The applicant is requesting* approval of a Planned Development Amendment to allow tenant panels on the existing pylon sign for The Shops at Grand Oak, located at 2864 and 2874 Highway 55, legally described as Lot 3, Block 1, Grand Oak Five, in the NE 1/4 of Section 2. AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW PD Amendment: 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 In 2004, the City Council approved a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to change the designation from Special Area 2-Business Park to Special Area 2-Office/Service, a Rezoning of approximately 13.5 acres from Business Park to Planned Development (to allow two office buildings, a bank and two retail/service buildings) and a Preliminary Subdivision of approximately 13.5 acres to create four lots. Planning Report - December 20, 2007 Shops at Grand Oak Page 2 In 2006, the City Council approved a Planned Development Amendment to allow up to 25,000 SF of healthcare facilities between Grand Oak IX and Grand Oak X office buildings. Also, the City Council approved a Planned Development Amendment in 2007 to allow a seasonal farmers market. EXISTING CONDITIONS A 124 square foot pylon sign exists on the property. SURROUNDING USES The subject property is surrounded with office and office/warehouse uses consisting of Business Park Zoning and Special Area Land Use Designations. EVALUATION OF REQUEST Description of Proposal - The applicant is proposing to add tenant panels on the existing pylon sign located of Lot 3, Block 1, Grand Oak Five. The four proposed panels equal 24 square feet and, individually, vary in size from 6 inches to 1 foot, 4 1/2 inches,. They are proposed to be double faced and internally lit. Si na e - An overall signage plan for the subject property was approved on April 5, 2005. The Council amended the signage plan on October 16, 2007 to include the following as part of the seasonal Farmers Market: ? A 12-foot by 36-inch vinyl banner shall be placed on each side of the existing pylon sign which may be displayed from the third Thursday in August through October. ? One 3' x 6' temporary sign, limited to Farmer's Market event information, on 2805 Dodd Road (Lot 1, Block 1, Grand Oak Five) beginning the second week of August through the end of October. ? One 3' x 3' temporary sign, limited to Farmer's Market event information and posted the day of the event only, located at the entrance off of Highway 55 (Lot 4, Block 1, Grand Oak Five) beginning the second week of August through the end of October. Any signs that were not included in the signage plan are subject to the requirements of the City of Eagan Sign Ordinance. The existing pylon sign was approved to be 25 feet in height and 124.64 square feet in size. The City Code allows for a pylon no greater than 27 feet in height and no larger than 125 square feet in area per side. The proposed tenant panels would create a deviation from the City Code as the overall square footage is proposed to be 149.64 square feet. 4w Planning Report - December 20, 2007 Shops at Grand Oak Page 3 Also, staff has concerns regarding the proposed height of the tenant panels. The City Code requires the character height to be based upon the speed limit of the adjacent roadway for dynamic signs. This requirement does not apply to static signs, however, it may be used as a guide during review. The character height requirement for this sign would be 15 inches for the 55 mph speed limit on Highway 55. As mentioned, the proposed tenant panels vary in size from 6 inches to 1 foot, 4 V2 inches which results in the character height being significantly smaller than 15 inches. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION The applicant is requesting approval of a Planned Development Amendment to add 24 square feet of tenant panels on an existing pylon sign as well as a temporary banner for the Farmers Market. The City Code allows a maximum of 125 square feet and therefore the panels would require a deviation from the code. Additionally, staff has concerns regarding the utility of the proposed character sizes of the tenant panels which will have limited, if any, visibility of such panels from Highway 55. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Planned Development Amendment to allow tenant panels on the existing pylon sign for The Shops at Grand Oak, located at 2864 and 2874 Highway 55, legally described as Lot 3, Block 1, Grand Oak Five, in the NE 1/4 of Section 2. If approved the following conditions shall apply: 1. A Planned Development Amendment Agreement shall be executed and recorded at the Dakota County Recorder's Office prior to issuance of a building permit. 2. An administrative Sign Permit shall be obtained from the City prior to installation of the tenant panels. 3. The tenant panels shall not exceed the dimensions as indicated on the sign exhibit received on December 11, 2007. `t i Eagan Boundary Right-of-way Location Map Parcel Area Park Area Building Footprint t A r .00 ow 4 . as ¦ a ¦ Subject Site - • - ft n1 j i ~ • c.$.~.w .o.as aon. aut i D.i CLY..I.YM ' ~ 1 ~ , ~~MWI 1000 0 1000 2000 Feet Development/Developer.

I do expect it in the next 1 - 1 '/2 hours and will forward it on to you then. It will propose two elevations, the first has been modified to show two 15" panels (one with "Time Out" on it and one indicating the entrance is off of Dodd) for a total size of 17.25 SF, which represents a 25% reduction in the overall signage of 23 SF as originally submitted; the second elevation shows one 15" panel indicating that entry to the retail is off Dodd. The second elevation illustrates an overall size of 9 SF which is a reduction of approximately 60% from the originally submitted design. The request for this application to be made came from tenant comments indicating that they are receiving complaints about how to enter the retail center (and these comments seem to be from people coming fro the west). It is my hope that with a reduction in the overall size of the additional signage, pursuant to the APC's comments about the clutter and the overall increase of the Pylon signage (I believe Commissioner Chavez mentioned that it was a 20% increase in the sign), that the City Council will still consider approval of this request. I appreciate the fact we are requesting a variance to exceed the city accepted sign standards and I do so on behalf of a tenant request and their opinion that the additional signage is needed to help direct people coming from the west on Highway 55 to the Shops at Grand Oak. Is it possible to include this e-mail in the Council's package without the new elevations? Matthew L.

S1 PLANNING REPORT CITY OF EAGAN REPORT DATE: December 6, 2007 CASE: 13-CU-14-11-07 APPLICANT: Fish & Labeau Signs HEARING DATE: December 20, 2007 PROPERTY OWNER: YMCA APPLICATION DATE: Nov. 21, 2007 REQUEST: Conditional Use Permit PREPARED BY: Sarah Thomas LOCATION: 550 Opperman Drive COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: I-l, Limited Industrial ZONING: I-1, Limited Industrial SUMMARY OF REQUEST The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow a 7', 9" high, 79 square foot pylon sign for property located at 550 Opperman Drive, legally described as Lot 1, Block 1, YMCA 2nd Addition, in the NE 1/4 of Section 13. AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.50, 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. Planning Report - YMCA Sign CUP December 20, 2007 Page 2 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 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 reasonable conditions they deem necessary to mitigate anticipated adverse impacts associated with these uses, to protect the value 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. BACKGROUND/HISTORY The property was originally subdivided in the early 1990's and the Southwest Area YMCA building was constructed shortly after that. The property was further subdivided in 2001 to allow an expansion off the west side of the building to meet required setbacks. EXISTING CONDITIONS A recreation facility and a daycare exist on the property. There are currently three building signs; A "Y", a YMCA, and a day care sign. There are no freestanding signs on the property. SURROUNDING USES The properties surrounding the subject property are used and guided for Industrial use, except for a single family home which is adjacent to the east side of the property. EVALUATION OF REQUEST Compatibility with Surrounding Area - Limited Industrial (I-1) districts are intended for use by warehousing, manufacturing and light industrial uses. Indoor commercial recreation is also a permitted use within the I-1 zone. A pylon sign is a Conditional Use. I* Planning Report - YMCA Sign CUP December 20, 2007 Page 3 Proposal - The applicant is requesting a CUP for a pylon sign with a LED message center to allow for announcement of events and programs affiliated with the YMCA. The dynamic portion of the sign is auto-adjusting (meaning it will adjust as the ambient lighting changes). Sign Ordinance - The general sign standards of the dynamic sign code allow a message to change every 20 minutes and the dynamic sign must be subordinate to the business name portion of the sign. The character height is based upon the speed limit of the adjacent roadway, which is 9" for the 35 mph speed limit on Opperman Drive. 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. Pylon signs are not to be located within 300 feet of each other on the same side of the street. The proposed sign is 79 square feet and 7 feet, 9 inches in height. The proposed pylon sign is to be located 10 feet from the Opperman Drive right-of-way and outside of easement areas, meeting standard Sign Code requirements. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION The applicant is requesting approval of a CUP for a 7', 9" high, 79 square foot pylon sign with a LED message center. The message may change every 20 minutes per the Sign Ordinance. The proposed sign appears compatible at the proposed location and appears to satisfy bulk standards for pylon signs in the Sign Ordinance. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow a 7', 9" high, 79 square foot pylon sign for property located at 550 Opperman Drive, legally described as Lot 1, Block 1, YMCA 2"d Addition, in the NE 1/4 of Section 13. If approved the following conditions shall apply: 1. The Conditional Use Permit shall be recorded with Dakota County within 60 days of the date 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 pylon sign shall be setback a minimum of 10 feet from all property lines and remain outside of easement areas. 4. The pylon sign shall be located as indicated on the site plan received November 21, 2007. 5. The pylon sign shall not exceed the dimensions as indicated on the sign exhibit dated December 5, 2007. 6. The pylon sign shall comply with all Sign Code requirements; including the message changing no more than once every twenty minutes.

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." BACKGROUND/HISTORY This 10.94-acre site was platted as a single parcel (Diffley Marketplace) earlier this year. A Planned Development was also approved earlier this year consisting of five commercial retail buildings on this site. EXISTING CONDITIONS The site is bounded by Diffley Road to the north, Walgreen's and Eagan Center to the west, single-family residential development to the south, and Daniel Drive to the east. There is an Wb Planning Report - Diffley Marketplace 2a December 20, 2007 Page 3 existing driveway across the property that accesses Diffley Road and serves the Walgreen's to the west. The site is open, with a cluster of trees at the east end. SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the subject property: Existing Use Zoning Land Use Designation North School P, Public QP, Quasi-Public East Single-family residential PD, Planned LD, Low Density Development Residential South Single-family residential PD, Planned LD, Low Density Development Residential West Walgreen's/ Eagan PD, Planned RC, Retail Commercial Center Development EVALUATION OF REQUEST Compatibility with Surrounding Area - The surrounding area contains a mix of residential, commercial and school uses. The Planned Development for this site allows retail uses. Proposal - There are no changes to the development plans for the site. Subdividing the property allows for separate ownership of each building/lot. Landscaping, setbacks, lighting, signage, and architectural standards remain as previously approved in the Planned Development. Lots - The Planned Development anticipated future subdivision of the land. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the approved development plans. The proposed lot sizes are as follows: Lot 1 = 4.74 acres Lot 4 = 1.08 acres Lot 2 = 1.59 acres Lot 5 = 2.04 acres Lot 3 = 1.49 acres Parking - The parking lot is designed to allow vehicular movement between the lots and throughout the site. The parking lot design and stall counts were reviewed and approved with the Planned Development. The PD also approved use of 9.5' wide stalls. Compliance with the City's parking requirements will need to be demonstrated at the time of building permit for Lots 4 and 5. The actual end users for those two lots are not yet known. Parking for Lots 1, 2 and 3 was reviewed and approved through the Planned Development. In order to maintain internal access and shared parking, cross-easements between the lots will be needed for ingress and egress and for shared parking. 42 c Planning Report - Diffley Marketplace 2' December 20, 2007 Page 4 Grading/ Storm Water Drainage - The site was graded with previous development, and is relatively flat and open with drainage mainly to the north and east. The entire site lies within Drainage District J (as designated in the City Storm Water Management Plan - 1990). Storm water runoff from the development will drain to a new storm water pond in the eastern portion of the site before discharging to existing storm sewer within Daniel Drive. Post-development storm water runoff discharge rates are proposed not to exceed pre-development rates. A detailed grading, drainage, erosion, and sediment control plan shall be prepared in accordance with current City standards and codes prior to final subdivision approval. Erosion control measures shall be installed and maintained in accordance with City code and engineering standards. All erosion/ sediment control plans submitted for development and grading permits shall be prepared by a designer who has current University of Minnesota Erosion/ Sediment Control Design training, or approved equal training as determined by the City Engineer, in designing stormwater pollution prevention plans. All personnel responsible for the construction and management of erosion/ sediment control devices, and the establishment of vegetation for the development, shall have received Erosion/ Sediment Control site management certification through the University of Minnesota, or approved equal training as determined by the City Engineer. Utilities - Lateral sanitary sewer of sufficient size, depth and capacity is available to the north within Diffley Road for connection by development of this site. Water main is also available within Diffley Road to serve the site. Streets/ Access/ Circulation - Proposed access to the development is as determined with the previous Planned Development and platting approvals on this property. Access will be provided in four locations: two onto Lexington Avenue (County Road 43) via Patrick Road (full access) and the Walgreen's store service drive (right-in/ right-out only); a "3/4" access at Diffley Road (County Road 30), and an entrance-only access from Daniel Drive. The access to Diffley Road will provide for right-in/ right-out turn movements and left-turn movements into the development only, with left turns out of the development at this location prohibited. This access and all necessary modifications to Diffley Road to accommodate the 3/4 access, as required by Dakota County, should be the responsibility of the developer. The access at Daniel Drive will be controlled to entrance-only vehicle movements via signage and width restrictions. Internal circulation is provided between existing uses and the proposed development via private service drives, with adequate widths and radii for large service vehicles, as shown on the preliminary site plan. Cross easements between the lots for ingress-egress and for shared parking should be provided in a form acceptable to the City Attorney. A private ingress/ egress easement has been executed that allows for access between this development and the Walgreen's property to the west. '7D Planning Report - Diffley Marketplace 2"a December 20, 2007 Page 5 Easements/ Permits/ Right-of-Way - Sanitary sewer, water main, and storm sewer systems within the development should be covered with private easements allowing for their private maintenance by the property owners. This development should be responsible for obtaining a permit from Dakota County for all work within Diffley Road right-of-way. Financial Obligation - There are pay-off balances of special assessments totaling $8,762 on the parcel proposed for platting. The pay-off balance will be allocated to the lots created by the plat. At this time, there are no pending assessments on the parcel proposed for platting. This estimated financial obligation is subject to change based on the areas, dimensions, and land uses contained in the final plat. Based upon a study by City staff of the financial obligations collected in the past and proposed use for the property, the following estimated charges will be collected at time of final subdivision or connection to the City's utility system. 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: Improvement Use Rate Quantity Amount Water Trunk C/I $2,500/ Ac 11 Acres $27,500 Sanitary Sewer Trunk C/I $2,370/ Ac 11 Acres $26,070 WAC C/I $3,930/ Ac 11 Acres $43,230 Water Lateral C/I $36/ F.F. 1,100/ F.F. $39,600 Sanitary Sewer Stub C/I $1,589/ Service 2 Services $ 3,178 Storm Sewer Lateral C/I $37.05/ F.F. 1,100 F.F. $40,755 Water Services C/I $2,660/ Service 2 Services $ 5,320 Total $185,653 Wetlands/Water Quality - Stormwater runoff should be treated via an on-site constructed pond. The design and construction of the pond should be consistent with the Final Planned Development which was approved in August 2007. A cash water quality dedication for the portion of the property that drains off-site (--1.04 acres) should be paid prior to issuance of any building permit, or prior to release of the plat for recording, whichever occurs first. The amount due will be based on the rates in effect at that time. Tree Preservation - A tree inventory submitted with this application indicates that there are forty- three (43) significant trees in the inventory for the entire site (detached home area plus attached home area). In addition to the species breakdown below, the balance of the tree inventory is comprised of crabapple, and one silver maple (48" diameter). 71 Planning Report - Diffley Marketplace 2'd December 20, 2007 Page 6 Species Count % of Total Avg. Diameter Box elder 18 42% 13" Willow 7 16% 12" Aspen 7 16% 12" Chinese Elm 3 7% 12" Cottonwood 3 7% 16" Pine 3 7% 12' ht. The development as proposed will result in the removal of a total of thirty-eight (38) significant trees (88.4 % of the total). According to the City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance allowable tree removal for this development is set at 30%. Thus, the calculated tree mitigation requirement is fifty-four (54) Category B trees. The applicant has submitted an acceptable Tree Mitigation Plan that indicates the fulfillment of required tree mitigation through the installation of sixty-three (63) Category B trees. Landscaping - The approved Planned Development included a Landscape Plan. One minor adjustment was made with this subdivision to replace some spruce trees with arbor vitae to accommodate a plat correction resulting in a narrower planting area south of the Driveway from Daniel Drive. The proposed arbor vitae will provide the same year around screening similar to the spruce trees. Setbacks - All buildings are shown with side yard setbacks of 10 feet or more from the proposed lot lines that subdivide the property. This is consistent with the building placement on the Site Plan previously approved with the Planned Development. Mechanical Equipment - This development should provide screening of mechanical equipment (ground or rooftop mounted) as required in the City's zoning ordinance. For Lots 1, 2 and 3, screening should be shown on the plans at the time of building permit application and compliance with the ordinance requirements will be determined at that time. For Lots 4 and 5, compliance should be demonstrated at the time of Final Planned Development. Parks and Recreation - This development is subject to cash park and trail dedications payable at the time of building permit issuance at the rates then in effect. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION In summary, Reliance Development is requesting approval of a Preliminary Subdivision to create five lots on 10.94 acres located south of Diffley Road between Lexington Avenue and Daniel Drive. The Preliminary Planned Development was approved for this property in 2005 which allowed retail commercial development consisting of five buildings. A Final Planned Development was approved for the westerly three buildings in August 2007. The site is currently vacant.

PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER USE OF EMINENT DOMAIN TO ACQUIRE THE BERNSTEIN/PERWIN PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3815 NICOLS ROAD ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To open the public hearing and receive comment. If the use of eminent domain is deemed necessary, the City and EDA should direct the City Attorney to prepare findings authorizing the use of eminent domain to acquire the Bernstein/Perwien Property located at 3815 Nichols Road. BACKGROUND ? The City has taken steps to bring about the redevelopment of the Cedar Grove Redevelopment Project Area. To date, significant work has been done with the core area and the City recently authorized use of eminent domain to acquire the fourteen remaining properties necessary to control the redevelopment of the core area. ? In addition to the redevelopment of the core area, the City as part of the redevelopment plan, has also sought to redevelop the northeast area of the redevelopment district (north of Highway 13). ? To facilitate the redevelopment, the City and the EDA entered into a preliminary redevelopment agreement with United Properties Investment, LLC (hereinafter "United") dated September 28, 2004 (hereinafter the "Redevelopment Agreement") for exclusive redevelopment rights of certain properties within the northeast area of the redevelopment district. ? In the Redevelopment Agreement, the property owned by Robert L. Bernstein and Edmund A. Perwin (a/k/a B-P, a Texas co-partnership), legally described as follows: That part of the North half (NI/2) of the Northwest Quarter (NW '/a) of Section Nineteen (19), Township Twenty-seven (27), Range Twenty-three (23), Dakota County, Minnesota described as follows: Beginning at the Northeast (NE) comer of said North half (N '/2); thence South along said East line 513.9 feet; thence deflecting to the right 90 degrees 20 minutes 491.5 feet; thence deflecting to the right 44 degrees 50 minutes 215.0 feet; thence Northwesterly to a point on the North line of q0~ said North half distant 847.0 feet from said Northeast corner; thence Easterly along said North line to the point of beginning. Excepting that part of the above described tract lying Easterly of the Westerly line of Cedar Avenue (State Highway No. 36) also excepting the following described tract; beginning where the Southwesterly line of Cedar Avenue intersects the North line of said Section Nineteen (19); thence West along the North line of said Section Nineteen (19), 353 feet; thence Southeasterly 204 feet to a point 240.4 feet Southwesterly from the point of beginning; thence Northeasterly 240.2 feet to the point of beginning. (hereinafter the "Property") was identified as a property necessary to carry out the redevelopment of the northeast area contemplated by the redevelopment plan and further discussed in the Redevelopment Agreement. ? United has been unsuccessful in its attempts to acquire the Property through direct negotiation. ? The 2008 amendments to the eminent domain law have created an exception to allow for the use of eminent domain for tax increment financing districts that were certified and adopted before February 1, 2006. The Cedar Grove TIF District meets these qualifications. ? The deadline for the Cedar Grove TIF District to meet the eminent domain exception requires the City to commence the action prior to February 1, 2008. ? To satisfy the statutory requirements, the City and the EDA published the notice of the hearing in the City's legal newspaper on December 22, 2007. It also sent notice of the hearing to the owners by first class mail on December 21, 2007. ? It was subsequently discovered that the owners of the property have moved to a new location and the address in the City and County records had not been updated to reflect the new address. As a consequence, notice was remailed to the new business address on December 27, 2007. While this does not create a defect under state law, in order to give the owners sufficient time to receive, review and consider a response to the notice, staff recommends that the public hearing be held open until the January 15, 2008 EDA meeting. ? If the City and EDA believe eminent domain is necessary, it should direct the City Attorney to prepare findings authorizing the use of eminent domain for consideration by the City at its January 15, 2008 meeting. These findings may be prepared and, if additional information is received that require an amendment of the draft findings, that may be done at that time. -2- Q PerwinlWingfoot Property Silve&Bell:Rd 13 United/North'District• Properties 4$ a Cedar~Grve Redevelopmerit~Area G° 1 mat' C73 ~t1 Z IF J 0 325 650 1.300 city of Evan Feet Cedar Grove Redevelopment Area Perwin/Wingfoot Site and United North District Development Properties Agenda Memo Eagan Economic Development Authority Meeting January 3, 2008 2. CEDAR GROVE REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT - APPROVE PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR U.S. HOME-GONYEA PARCEL ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To adopt a resolution to approve a purchase agreement and related documents for the acquisition of the former Gonyea Parcel (PIN 101352001000) from U.S. Home. FACTS: • As a part of the redevelopment of the Cedar Grove Redevelopment District, the City approved a concept plan presented by Delta Homes and a development agreement for the redevelopment of properties south of Cedar Grove Parkway. The project was subsequently purchased and assigned to U.S. Home. • The company proceeded under the original development plans, but ceased construction of condominium units when the market for that product flattened • The company approached the City to propose a revised development plan and, as an outcome of negotiations, on November 5, 2007, the EDA authorized a settlement under which U.S. Home would make development applications for an amendment of the project to construct 118 additional row homes on property on the eastern portion of the site and sell the City the former Gonyea parcel on the western portion of the site. The City would assemble the Gonyea parcel with four parcels it acquired previously to create an eight acre development parcel to be made available to a third party developer. • While the developer prepares revised plans for its development applications for the eastern site, they have asked whether the City would be prepared to move forward with the acquisition of the Gonyea parcel at this time. • Staff and the City reviewed the request and have determined that it will not limit the City in its consideration of the remainder of the settlement elements and would allow the City to take ownership of the parcel sooner and begin exploring alternative development options for it. • At the time of packet preparation, the seller's attorney continues to review the purchase agreement. While it appears that remaining issues are minor, staff would not recommend action on the item until an executed copy of the agreement is received from the seller. If it is received in time for action at Thursday's meeting, additional information to that effect will be distributed. If not, staff will request that the item be continued at that time meeting.

Maria Petersen, City Clerk Agenda Memo Eagan Economic Development Authority Meeting January 3, 2008 3. SOUTHEAST EAGAN REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT - SET DEADLINE FOR CERTIFICATION ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To set a deadline for the completion of certification of the Southeast Eagan TIF District. FACTS: • The City authorized the creation of the Southeast Eagan Renewal and Renovation District on May 16, 2006 to provide a funding mechanism to assist with the extraordinary costs associated with the assembly and redevelopment of properties in the area of Red Pine Lane and Biscayne Avenue. • The boundaries of the district are defined by lot lines created by the Red Pine Crossing subdivision. That being the case, the TIF Plan cannot be accepted by Dakota County for certification until the subdivision is recorded. Revestors, the developer of Red Pine Crossing, has requested several extensions for recording of the subdivision, while they pursue the anchor tenant for the development. • City staff has advised the developer of the need to take these steps in a timely manner, but neither the City Code nor Minnesota Statutes has a timeline beyond which the actions terminate. • Ehlers and Associates and the City's bond counsel have researched the potential effect of a substantial delay between the approval of a TIF district and its certification. Their findings are outlined in the letter, which is attached. • In order to address the concerns outlined, staff is recommending that the EDA formalize the deadline noted in the letter, with the understanding that the consequence of the subdivision not being filed for recording by February 1, 2008 would be a subsequent consideration of a termination of the district by the EDA. • If that occurs, no increment would be captured for use in offsetting the costs anticipated when the district was originally approved and the developer would be obligated to absorb any costs for assembly and demolition that might otherwise have been eligible for reimbursement.

In particular, I appreciate your update concerning you negotiations with a grocery anchor and I look forward to hearing more about that, when it is at a point at which you can share more information. That having been said, I wanted to write to confirm our conversation about concerns the City has about the timing of the development and the City's ability to have the TIF District MUNICIPAL CENTER certified. 3830 Pilot Knob Road Eagan, MN 55122-1810 As you are aware, the City adopted the TIF District on June 6, 2006. The request to the 651.675.5000 phone County for certification of the District is dated October 19, 2006. The County has not 651.675.5012 fax and cannot complete the request because final parcel numbers are not available. The 651.454.8535 TDD certification of the District remains incomplete because parcel numbers are not available. Currently the TIF Law does not have a maximum length of time from when the District MAINTENANCE FACILITY is adopted to when the certification of a TIF District is complete. However, in recent 3501 Coachman Point discussions with the representatives from the Office of the State Auditor (OSA), Eagan, MN 55122 districts have been scrutinized when the request for certification is delayed for nearly 651.675.5300 phone two years after the adoption of the District. 651.675.5360 fax 651.454.8535 TDD In addition, the Tax Bill proposed last year included language that would impose a 60 day maximum to complete the request for certification. The OSA expects that language will again be introduced in the 2008 Legislative Session. At this time we do not know www.cityofeagan.com the specific proposed language or the proposed effective date if adopted. The City desires to preserve its ability to consider providing tax increment assistance for the proposed Red Pine Crossings project and other projects within the District. If at a future date the OSA determines that the District is not in compliance with Minnesota Statutes, the City could be forced to terminate the District; therefore, eliminating its THE LONE OAK TREE ability to consider assistance. - The symbol of strength and growth in our community. To complete the certification, the City needs the final parcel numbers for the District. In order to provide this to the County, Revestors needs to complete the platting process. The City would like to have this process completed by February 1, 2008, so the request for certification can be completed. If the platting process is not completed by that date, the City Council will need to consider taking action to terminate the District. Please provide a timeline for moving forward with the platting process; negotiation and execution of a development agreement and ultimate development of the site. If you have questions or would like to schedule a meeting to further discuss this matter, please contact me at 651-675-5653.
