They also informed the Council of /S Special City Council minutes May 14, 2002 Page 4 RAFT grant applications they have submitted and requested that the City put an option on 60 acres of available land North of Wescott. The Council discussed the necessary funding for matching grants and noted the lack of funding that the City has available. They also discussed the need for acommunity-wide survey and the opportunity to include questions about open space in that survey. City Administrator Hedges informed the Council that $20,000 is budgeted in 2002 for a community-wide survey, and it has been the City's practice to do a community-wide survey every five years.

CONTRACT 02-08, KENNERICK ADDITION STORM SEWER IMPROVEMENTS ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Reject all bids for Contract 02-08 (Kennerick Addition - Storm Sewer Improvements) and delay the construction of the improvements unti12003. FACTS: • On September 15, 2000, city staff received a petition signed by Brad Swenson, developer of the Kennerick Addition, and Eileen Kennedy, 1415 Lone Oak Road, requesting the installation of a storm sewer outlet for Pond HDP-1 on the north side of Lone Oak Road (County Road 26), west of Pilot Knob Road (County Road 31). • The construction of this storm sewer outlet was a condition of the subdivision of the Kennerick Addition approved by the Council on December 4, 2000. It will address the drainage from the proposed single-family development and the existing homes along Lone Oak Lane, as well as provide flood protection for the existing homes. • On June 6, 2001, a public hearing was held for this petitioned improvement and Project 806 was subsequently approved. • On May 7, 2002, the City Council approved the plans and authorized the advertisement for solicitation of competitive bids for Contract 02-08. • At 10:30 a.m. on May 30, formal bids were received for this project. A copy of the bid summary is enclosed. • All bids have been reviewed for their accuracy on unit price extension and summations and for compliance to the bid specifications documents, and represented as such in the enclosed bid summary. ISSUES: • Acquisition of new easements is required for the construction of the proposed improvements. Staff has communicated with all affected property owners and is actively pursuing easement acquisition. At the writing of the agenda report, not all easements had been acquired. • State Statutes require that the City enter into a contract within 12 months of approving a public improvement. This time frame expires on June 6. It is not advisable that the City enter into a contract without all the necessary easements acquired allowing the contractor to proceed. • If all easements are not available, the bids should be rejected and a new public hearing will have to be held at a future date. With the rejection of the bids, staff will continue the efforts to acquire all necessary easements, including the acquisition through the Eminent Domain process as authorized by previous Council action. Staff will provide an update to the Council at the June 4 meeting for their consideration of awarding the contract if it is in order to do so. • The low bid was in excess of 30% above both the Engineer's Estimate and the Feasibility Report.

THOMAS L HEDGES, CITY ADMIlVI5TRATOR FROM: THOMAS A COLBERT, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS DATE: MAY 30, 2002 SUBJECT: 5-YEAR CIP (2003-2007) The Public Works Department prepared and presented a draft S-Year CIP (2003-2007), for Part III (Public Works Infrastructure) to the City Council for their consideration at a workshop meeting held on May 14, 2002. As a result of that workshop review, the following is a summary of the changes to that eazlier Draft. These changes have been incorporated into the Final CIP now being prescnted to the Council for their consideration for formal adoption: STREETSlHIGHWAYS/TRAILS A. Collectors & Arterials C. Trails • Johnnv Cake Ridla~e Road (Cliff Rd. to Apple. Valleyl - In the Draft CIP, Johnny Cake Ridge Road from Cliff Rd. to Apple Valley was programmed in 2004 for a change in lane designation from its current 4-lane to a 3-lane roadway (Similaz to Wescott Rd. with center turn lanes and safety shoulders). The consensus of the Council was to remove this from the 5-yeaz CIP due to lack of demonstrated need and support. • Northwood Parkway (Pilot Knob Rd. to Denmark Ave.l - In the Draft CII', this segment of the Ring Road over 35E was programmed for 2003. However, due to the need to fiscally balance the overall CIP, the Council agreed to remove this $4 million improvement from the 5-year CIP and directed staff to pursue potential funding opportunities for reconsideration and possible reprogramming in a future CIP. • Northwood Pazkwav (Pilot Knob Rd. to Denmark Ave.l -This trail segment was also deleted from the CIP due to the removal of the related street and overpass improvement addressed above. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS As a result of these revisions, the financial impact of this 5-yeaz CIP has been improved. The Draft CIP projected a deficit in the Major Street Fund of $2,282,000 at the end of 2007. The Final CIP being presented to the Council now shows a balance of $2,317,000 at the end of 2007. a revised Pro Forn~a and Financing Plan is attached for this CIP 46 CIP, page 2 May 30, 2002 There were no other revisions to the draft CIP as directed by the Council. These revisions have been incorporated into the Final CIP (Part III) notebook being redistributed to the City Council for consideration of formal adoption on June 4. if any Council member has any question regarding this document, please let me know and I will be prepazed to address them.

DECLARE OBSOLETE OFFICE FURNITURE AS SURPLUS PROPERTY AND APPROVE DISPOSAL AS A DONATION ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To declare obsolete office furniture as surplus property and approve the donation of the furniture to anon-profit entity. FACTS: • The City began setting aside CIP funds in order to complete the remodeling and furnishing of offices that were not completed when City Hall was remodeled in 1995. • A total of 12 offices are in the process of receiving new office furniture. • Office furniture was available at the May 18 City auction, and it was found that the furniture generated little interest. • Donation of the office furniture is a less expensive alternative to the storage and/or payment for the removal of the furniture. • Owobopte has expressed their interest in obtaining the aforementioned office furniture. ATTACHMENTS: Attached without page number is a list of the office furniture to be declared surplus. X3'0 Agenda Information Memo June 4, 2002 Eagan City Council Meeting T. AUTHORIZE COMMUNITY-WIDE SURVEY ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To approve an outside firm to prepare acommunity-wide survey. FACTS: • As a part of the 2002 Communications Budget, a dollar amount not to exceed $20,000 was budgeted for acity-wide survey. It has been the city's past practice to do a city survey approximately every five (5) years. The last city-wide survey was conducted in 1996. • At the May 14 Special City Council meeting, a motion was approved to: I) prepare survey objectives and topics to be addressed; 2) obtain price quotations from reputable businesses that are accustomed to doing community-wide surveys and also get price quotations for a single issue survey; 3) direct staff to bring the sample survey to the Council as soon as possible, preferably in June; and 4) a friendly amendment to direct staff to speak to local government survey providers and ask the providers to meet with the City Council before deciding on how the Council wishes to proceed with the survey. • A meeting was scheduled with Decision Resources on Wednesday, May 29 and City Councilmembers Carlson and Tilley joined staff consisting of Director of Communications Garrison, Director of Pazks & Recreation Vraa and City Administrator Hedges. Decision Resources' representative Pete Leatherman was asked a number of questions related to timing, cost, and survey methodology (many of the same questions posed by the Council at the May 14 meeting). In addition to City Council representatives and staff, there were two (2) members of the public, Lauren Florine and John Ward present at the meeting. • It was agreed that staff would attempt to interview at least one additional survey provider before Tuesday in addition to the meeting with Decision Resources. Any updated information will be provided with the Additional Information Memo on Monday pertaining to a meeting with another prospective survey vendor. • There was agreement that the survey should be a city-wide survey that includes a core of approximately fifty questions addressing city services and general quality of life. Other survey topics include a special grouping of questions regarding the S/ need for additional open space and questions touching on communication issues, parks and recreation, public safety, city services and customer service, and tax issues. The cost of the survey by Decision Resources for approximately 80-120 questions is in the range of $12,000-$13,000. The survey sample selected by staff and DR recommended a survey sample of 400 residents with +/- 5 percent accuracy. This was agreed to by staff and the Council representation. In keeping with the May 14 direction and motion, the client or the City of Eagan has in essence picked the topics for the community-wide survey and the selected survey vendor will write the survey questions. City Council representatives and staff felt that as directed by the City Council at the May 14 meeting, that acommunity-wide survey including questions about open space was the best choice of a survey as opposed to having a separate special issue survey for open space and then later acommunity-wide survey. According to the representative from Decision Resources, he is very confident, based on his own experience, that the questions regarding open space will not be diluted in a community-wide survey and that other reliable information can be gained to help assist future decision making in other area. If Council is comfortable with the overall topical areas, staff is confident survey results could be obtain by early August. SPECIAL NOTE: There will be additional information from Decision Resources and a proposal from another vendor as part of the Additional Information packet on Monday. ~~ Agenda Information Memo June 4, 2002 Eagan City Council Meeting U.

VARIANCE -THOMAS THRESS (3550 WIDGEON WAIF ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To approve a five (5) foot Variance from the required 10 foot side yard setback for the construction of a living space addition to an existing single family dwelling on property located at 3435 Widgeon Way (Lot 29, Block 1, Duckwood Estates) in the NE'/4 of Section 15. FACTS: • The applicant would like to construct a 18 foot by 22 foot (396 square feet) kitchen and family room addition (four season porch) to the rear of an existing single family dwelling. • The addition is proposed to be 5 feet from the side property line. The Zoning Ordinance requires a 10 foot setback for living space. • The proposal appears to blend with the style of the home. • The applicant contends that the house placement and orientation created the hardship. Furthermore, the addition cannot be placed in another location because it would be cost prohibitive. • In 1993, a 5 foot side yard setback Variance was granted to the property to the north for the construction of a living space addition. ISSUE: • The condition upon which the Variance appears to be based is applicable to other properties within the R-1 zoning district. This property does not seem to exhibit a unique or special feature that would require or warrant relief from City ordinances. ATTACHMENT (1): Planning staff report, pages ~ through S6 PLANNING REPORT CITY OF EAGAN REPORT DATE: May 31, 2002 APPLICANT: Thomas Thress PROPERTY OWNER: Same CASE: 15-VA-06-OS-02 HEARING DATE: June 4, 2002 PREPARED BY: Cynthia R. Kirchoff REQUEST: Variance LOCATION: 3550 East Widgeon Way (Lot 29, Block 1, Duckwood Estates) COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: LD, Low Density Residential ZONING: R-1, Residential Single Family SUMMARY OF REQUEST Thomas Thress is requesting a five (5) foot Variance from the required 10 foot side yard setback for the construction of a living space addition on property located at 3550 East Widgeon Way (Lot 29, Block 1, Duckwood Estates) in the NE'/a of Section 15. AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.40, Subdivision 3C states that the Council may grant a variance and impose conditions and safeguards only if: The Council shall determine that the special conditions applying to the structures or land in question are peculiar to such property or immediately adjoining property and do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which said land is located, and that the granting of the application is necessary for the applicant. 2. The granting of the proposed variance will not be contrary to the intent of this Chapter and the Comprehensive Guide Plan. 3. That granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable hardship or difficulty. 57 Planning Report -Thress Variance May 31, 2002 Page 2 CODE REQUIREMENTS City Code Section 11.20, Subd. 6, A, requires a 10 foot side yard setback for the dwelling unit on property zoned R-1. BACKGROUND/HISTORY The subject site was platted with Duckwood Estates in 1978 and is a riparian lot that abuts O'Leary Lake. In 1984, the single family home with attached garage was constructed on the site. The existing single family dwelling maintains a nonconforming 27 foot front yard setback. The City does not have record of a Variance being granted for property. EVALUATION OF REQUEST Proposal - The applicant is requesting a five (5) foot setback Variance to allow for the construction of a 396 square foot (18 feet by 22 feet) living space addition to an existing single family dwelling on property zoned R-1 (Residential Single Family). The proposed addition, which has the appearance of a four season porch, is for a kitchen and family room expansion and is located behind the existing garage. The elevation plan indicates the proposed addition blends with the existing architecture and materials of the home. The Zoning Ordinance requires a 10 foot setback for dwellings from a side property line. The proposed building setback is 5 feet. The proposed addition appears to meet the minimum required 50 foot setback from the ordinary high water level (OHWL) of O'Leary Lake. According to the survey, the existing single family dwelling is 27 feet from the front property line abutting Widgeon Way, 10 feet from the north property line, 40 foot setback from the south property line, and approximately 45 feet from the OHWL level of O'Leary Lake. The proposed addition will not expand the nonconforming front yazd setback. Variance Criteria - The Zoning Ordinance states that relief maybe granted from a required provision provided there are special conditions that apply to the subject land, the relief is not contrary to the Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Guide Plan, and it is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty. The Zoning Ordinance states that relief maybe granted provided that there aze special conditions that apply to the pazcel in question. The gross area of the subject site is 31,755 square feet. Approximately one-half of the property is below the OHWL of O'Leary Lake. It does not appear as though special conditions (i.e., topography, unique lot configuration, vegetation, etc.) are ss~ ..;. w ._,.. ,~ ~ _ ~ ~ _ . ~ _ _ _ ...a Planning Report -Thress Variance May 31, 2002 Page 3 present on the property. Although the existing home complies with the minimum side yard setback, its placement and orientation created the difficulty for the proposed addition. The relief sought by the applicant does not appear to be contrary to the Comprehensive Guide Plan, but maybe inconsistent with the intent of the Zoning Ordinance. That is, the purpose of the building setback provision is to prevent the overcrowding of properties and to provide green space. Since the request is to reduce this minimum requirement, it appears to be contrary to the intent of the ordinance. A demonstrable difficulty is required to grant relief from the minimum required front yard setback. The applicant is requesting relief from a required minimum setback to allow for the construction of a living space addition. A reasonable use, single family dwelling with attached garage, is present on the site, so the owner has the same use as those within 200 feet and would have the same opportunity to construct a single family home with two-stall garage without relief from the Zoning Ordinance. In 1993, the City granted a five (5) foot Variance from the required 10 foot side yard setback for the construction of a living space addition at 3546 Widgeon Way. This property is located just to the north of the subject site. APPLICANT'S ESTIMATE OF HARDSHIP The applicant's narrative indicates that the house was placed to close to the northern property line and created the difficulty. The proposed addition would square off the back of the house and save the applicant money in labor, materials, and construction time. The proposed kitchen cannot be moved to the south side of the house (where no Variance would be needed) because it would be cost prohibitive. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION The applicant is requesting a five (5) foot setback Variance for the construction of a living space addition. A single family dwelling with atwo-stall garage is present on the site. The applicant has indicated that the alleged hardship is the house placement, which does not allow for the expansion of the house on the north side without a Variance. The owner has a reasonable use of the property. The condition upon which the variance appears to be based is applicable to other properties within the R-1 zoning district. This property does not seem to exhibit a unique or special feature that would require or warrant relief from City ordinances. However, a similar side yard setback Variance was granted to the property to the north. A determination regarding the appropriateness of relief from a Zoning Ordinance provision for the construction of the proposed addition is considered a policy matter to be determined by the City Council. 59 Planning Report -Thress Variance May 31, 2002• Page 4 ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To approve a five (5) foot Variance from the required 10 foot side yard setback for the construction of a living space addition on property located at 3550 Widgeon Way (Lot 29, Block 1, Duckwood Estates) and in the NE'/< of Section 15. If approved the following conditions shall apply: 1. If within one year after approval, the variance shall not have been completed or utilized, it shall become null and void unless a petition for an extension has been granted by the council. Such extension shall be requested in writing at least 30 days before expiration and shall state facts showing a good faith attempt to complete or utilize the use permitted in the variance. 2. The exterior materials of the living space addition shall match those on the principal structure. 3. The addition shall comply with all applicable Zoning Ordinance requirements. 60 a Eagsn dowtdrry Location Map , ., P~»N~tMln. suiiding FootOrlnt ~ ~ / ~ i ~ ~ F~ :~ ~ ~ I ~.

SITE PLAN V aRIaYCE REQI'EST 3SS0 E. W'IDGEO~ ~~`~~' t am requesting this residential variance for the proposed addition of an expanded kitchen and family room to my home built in 198. This addition is needed to expand the kitchen and prop ide for more living and entertaining space. This proposed area was to be part of the original house: but. because of high interest rates and finances in the mid 80's, I needed to scale back the size ot'the house. Over time as income increases and life styles change this will be a most welcomed addition. I only have about 680 square feet on the main Ieve1 of this home. The other two levels contain bedrooms. I do not wish to move from the area as I have been a Dakota county resident for over 26 years, Eagan is my home. The VE corner of the proposed 480 square foot addition falls between the 5 and 10 toot set back requirements according to the lot survey. The actual square footage in question is less than 10°~0 of the project. The north wall slopes from 10 to 5 feet of my closest neighbor's lot line. This neighbor's, Dave and Cathy Sebastion, have no objections to this project. They feel it will improve the appearance of the back of my home which they see when they enter and leave their front door and drive way. The actual distance between the NE corner of my addition and the closest structure of their house, a deck, is 58 feet. Last year together we bought and share six large boulders which are on the lot line. There could be no impact to the other 18 lot owners within 200 feet of my property to these 4~ square feet fallinv within the 5 - 10 feet set back of the north lot line. As seen by this sun•ey, the lot is pie shaped and somewhat irregular, as are others within Duck-w~ood Estates. The house was built for some reason towards the north side of the lot, not more centrally (perhaps to same some trees which latter died) and is not parallel with the street. about half of this lot is actually in O'Leary Lake. This addition is designed to simply square off the back of the house and to make a complete rectangular building. These squared and flush walls save money for me in labor, materials and construction time. The roof trusses are easily aligned giving a vault closely matching the opposite side of the house. The addition as designed can be constructed without moving an upstairs egress bedroom window which would be necessary if the room was shortened from 21 to say 18 feet. I do not want to move the kitchen to the south side of the house because of the added expense which would be exorbitant. The appliances are in good working repair and will remain. No plumbing changes are needed other than adding a new, quieter dishwasher. The room will be heated with a gas fireplace which is furnace raced, and cooled with a wall airconditioner. Thank you for considering my variance request. I will be at the council meeting when you discuss my project sho_ uld you have any further questions. At the meeting I wilt have enlarged photos of the area for you to review if needed.

We own the property immediately to the north. Practically speaking, we are the only people who are directly affected by the requested variance. In fact, we are probably the only people who will be able to see the proposed addition once completed. Tom has discussed the plans for the addition with us on a number of occasions. We think the plans make great sense. As our houses are a significant distance apart, the variance does not adversely affect us in any meaningful way. We have no objections to Tom's request for a variance and strongly encourage you to grant it to him. Reg ds, ~,/ ,~ l.,Cathleen A. Sebastian David T. Sebastian cc: T.

OLD BUSINESS A. CLARIFICATION OF SETBACKS (WOODSTONE TOWNHOMES) - TOLLEFSON DEVELOPMENT, INC. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To clarify the minimum required building setbacks for the Woodstone Townhome development located north of Deerwood Drive across from Deerwood Elementary and Blackhawk Middle Schools. FACTS: • The City approved a Planned Development for Woodstone Townhomes in May 2001. The PD Agreement states "setbacks shall be not less than shown on the approved site plan." • There has been some difference in how staff has applied the setbacks to individual building permits, and how the developer interpreted the setback requirements. • The site plan was reviewed against typical setbacks for an R-2 or R-3 development. The minimum perimeter site setback is typically 30 feet. • Several of the buildings shown on the Woodstone site plan were shown with a rear yard setback of 40 feet from the perimeter of the development site. • In reviewing individual building permits, staff has applied a 40-foot minimum setback to the main structure. Decks have been allowed to project from the rear of the buildings up to the platted lot lines. • The approved site plan showed a few setback deviations, which were primarily in front yards for side-loaded garages. The reference in the PD Agreement to setbacks not being less than shown on the approved site plan was an acknowledgement of the acceptability of those identified setback deviations. • The developer states the 40-foot setbacks shown on the site plan were intended to be only illustrative. Further, the developer states that while their intent was to show that the proposed buildings could fit within the platted lot lines, they expected to have flexibility to build within the lot itself. • The developer states that the platted lot lines are 30 feet from the perimeter of the site, and if allowed to build up to the platted lot line, the structures would still satisfy the typical 30-foot structure setback. ISSUES: • Staff's concern with reducing the rear setbacks to less than shown on the site plan would not be consistent with the expectations of the Council or of neighbors who were presented with a plan showing 30-foot setbacks. However, allowing structures to be built up to the platted lot line would be consistent with how setbacks have been handled in sinvlar developments in the City, and a 30-foot setback would be consistent with typical code standards. ATTACHMENTS (2): Letter from Tollefson Development, pages ~ through Woodstone Townhomes Site Plan, page ~i May 06, 2002 City of Eagan 3830 Pilot Knob Road Eagan, Minnesota 55122 Re: Woodstone Townhomes Dear Mayor Awada and City Council- Tollefson Development and MW Johnson Homes are requesting a clarification of setbacks for the Woodstone Townhome project located offofDeerwood Dr. This project was approved as a planned development in May, 2002. There has been confusion between what we the developer and builder interpreted was approved and what City staff interpreted was approved. The site plan that was submitted illustrated three building types that would be built in the development. It was the intent of this site plan that any of the three units could be built on any of the building pads, as long as grade issues, tree issues, wetland issues, and minimum setbacks were addressed. The purpose of this was to create a neighborhood with a variety of housing types adding character and value to the neighborhood. The main confusion has been with the rear setbacks and building footprints placed on the site plan. The rear setbacks that were place on the site plan were illustrative building setbacks and not proposed building setbacks as demonstrated by the nonuniform setbacks of 40.1 ft, 43 ft, 70 ft, etc. The zoning ordinance allows rear-building setbacks of 30 ft form the rear property line, which is where the platted lot lines for the development were placed. City staff has interpreted the setbacks on the site plan to be the approved setbacks. This severely limits which units can be place on which lots. We are requesting that a uniform 30 ft rear setback is allowed in this development as is allowed by the City's zoning ordinance, except along Deerwood Dr. This will allow the variety of approved building types to be constructed in the development. Without this, only one building type fits on most of the lots. The buildings themselves will still be within the platted lots. In most cases, the buildings will only be 2-S ft over the "illustrative" setbacks shown on the approved site plan. A drawing is enclosed illustrating the setbacks for the largest units, which were approved for this project. This is the requested setback. ~a 17271 i<enyon Ave., Suite #103 • Lakevile, MN 55044 • Phone (952) 435-1010 • FAX (952) 435-1020 Email - infoCtollefsondevelopment.com _ www.tollefsondevelapment.com __ _ Developers ^ Land Investment ^ Property Managers Please let me know what other information I can provide.

NEW BUSINESS A. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT -PORTFOLIO DESIGN (FOR BEST BRANDS) ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To approve a Conditional Use Permit to allow outdoor storage ofsemi-trailers and materials on property located at 1765 Yankee Doodle Road in the SE '/o of Section 8, subject to the conditions listed in the APC meeting minutes. FACTS: • The site is located west of Hwy. 13 at Yankee Doodle Road. • The facility was established in 1976, and has expanded several times since then. • The outdoor storage of trailers is proposed in two locations -northwest of the building and east of the building. Material storage would be located east of the building and used only occasionally as operations require. • Each of the storage areas is proposed to store up to 60 trailers. The east storage area would be longer-term trailer storage, while the area north of the building is for more transient storage and staging for trailers that come and go during the week. • Aclimate-controlled cargo trailer is currently stored east of the building on a concrete pad and that is proposed to remain. Several other trailers that have been attached to the east side of the building are required to be removed by September 1, 2002. • A berm and landscape screening will be added along Yankee Doodle Road. • Because another building expansion eastward is anticipated in the future, the applicant proposes to retain the existing Class V surface for the storage area east of the building. However, the recommended conditions of approval require that the area be resurfaced with a milled bituminous material, and upgraded to bituminous asphalt upon the earlier of five years or expansion of the building. • At their regular meeting on May 28, 2002, the Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the Conditional Use Permit and recommended approval subject to the conditions listed in the APC meeting minutes.

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. In addition to the requirements for a conditional use permit listed above, City Code Section 11.10, Subdivision 29.2, C, lists performance standards for outdoor storage as follows: Outdoor storage items shall be placed within an enclosure as necessary to achieve appropriate security and containment or for public safety reasons when determined necessary by the city. In general business (GB) and community shopping center (CSC) zoning districts, the enclosure shall be attached to the principal building and be constructed of materials which are aesthetically compatible with the principal building. In limited industrial (I-1) and general industrial (I-2) zoning districts, the enclosure may be detached from the principal building. 2. The storage area shall be located in the side or reaz yards and shall not encroach into any required front building setback area or other required setbacks. 3. The outdoor storage area shall be screened from view from the public right-of--way and from any adjacent property which is designated for residential uses in the comprehensive guide plan. 4. The storage area shall not interfere with any pedestrian or vehicular movement. 5. The storage area shall not take up required parking spaces or landscaping areas. 80 Planning Report -Best Brands May 28, 2002 Page 3 6. The storage area shall be surfaced with concrete or an approved equivalent to control dust and erosion. The surface shall be properly maintained to prevent deterioration. BACKGROUND/HISTORY The Best Brands facility was founded in 1976. In the past 10 years, Best Brands has experienced significant growth, expanding this facility three times. The two buildings consist of approximately 118,000 square feet on 16.7 acres. In 1990, Best Brands acquired the northeasterly 9.5 acres in anticipation of future expansion. That 9.5-acre parcel contains a house, which is currently occupied by a renter. The facility is again in need of expansion, however, further expansion would require the relocation of sanitary sewer and storm sewer pipes and associated public easements which are adjacent to the east side of the building, and consequently would add significant cost to further building expansion. There are currently several trailers being stored outside on the property, and several trailers that have been attached to the building. One cargo trailer has been placed on a concrete slab and is climate controlled for storage of "volatile materials in accordance with the Fire Code," according to the applicant's narrative. The existing trailer storage is in violation of City ordinances, and upon being notified of such, the applicant submitted this application for the required Conditional Use Permit to bring the use into compliance. EXISTING CONDITIONS The site contains rivo existing buildings totaling approximately 118,000 sq. ft. Access to the site is provided from Yankee Doodle Road in several places, and from Terminal Drive to the north. The eastern portion of the site adjacent to the building has a Class V surface. The parking tots and service areas are surfaced with bituminous asphalt. The gravel area east of the building has been used for trailer storage without benefit of a Conditional Use Permit, and several trailers have been attached in a perpendicular fashion to the building in an effort to expand "indoor" storage space. Upon receiving notification that a CUP was necessary, the owner prepared this application. There are several existing non-conformities with regard to site improvements. The storage area is not well-defined, it is surfaced with Class 5 rather than bituminous or concrete, does not have curb and gutter or a storm drainage system, and there is no fencing or screening around the outside storage area. SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the subject property: Bi Planning Report -Best Brands May 28, 2002 Page 4 Existing Use ~ Zonina Guide Plan North Parkin storage I-1, Limited Industrial IND, Limited Industrial South Office ~ I-1 IND I East Valle Lounge I-1 1ND West Office I-1 IlvD EVALUATION OF REQUEST Compatibility with Sun oundin~ Area -The surrounding area west of Hwy. 13 is largely industrial uses. Across Hwy. 13 to the east is the Transport Corporation of America office building. There are no residential developments nearby, however the easterly portion of the subject site that the owner acquired in anticipation of expanding the facility in the future, contains a house, which is currently occupied by a renter. Proposal -The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit for outside storage. The existing trailers that are attached to the building would be removed later this summer, and the applicant proposes to utilize the entire area that is currently surfaced with Class V for outside storage of detached trailers and "miscellaneous materials consumed during the course of business." Site Plan -The proposed outdoor storage area is located east of the building. The applicant has indicated that the existing attached trailers will be removed by September 1, 2002. The applicant proposes outside storage of trailers on a "semi-permanent" basis adjacent to the building and on the east side of that yard just inside the entrance. Approximately 60 trailers can be stored within this area. The plans shows ho~~~ the trailers would line up on the two concrete pads east of the driveway entrance and adjacent to the building. Anew bituminous surface is proposed extending about 130 feet into the site. The applicant proposes to construct a berm and install landscaping along Yankee Doodle Road south of the driveway to screen the storage area. One trailer is being stored long-term on a concrete pad near the southeast end of the building. This one trailer is climate-controlled and is "used to store volatile materials in accordance with the Fire Code." The applicant has indicated that this trailer is used for storage of food additives, such as flavorings, that are flammable. This concrete slab is also used for temporary storage of materials for equipment change-outs, which occur periodically. "Transient" trailer storage is also proposed on the north side of the building. This north trailer storage is for short-term trailer storage, typically for less than one day. This storage area is currently surfaced with bituminous asphalt and enclosed by a fence. Up to about 60 trailers can be stored in this area at any given time, but trailers do not remain for extended periods of time. Outside storage is also proposed for recyclable plastic barrels. Best Brands uses products and then stores the empty barrels on-site until enough have been accumulated to complete a truckload to be hauled off-site for recycling, which typically occurs weekly. The storage of such recyclable ~a Planning Report -Best Brands May 28, 2002 Page 5 materials should be excluded from this conditional use permit, and that they be stored in compliance with City Code requirements in Section 11.10, Subdivision 29.5 ("Enclosure of trash and recyclables containers required"). However, storage for these items should be shown on a revised site plan. Setbacks -The east side storage area is set back about 80 feet from Yankee Doodle Road and 15- 20 feet minimum from the east lot line. The north storage area is five feet from one property line and 15 feet from the other. These setbacks satisfy City Code requirements for the outside storage in the I-1 zoning district adjacent to other property with the same zoning designation. Outdoor Storage -The ordinance standards for outside storage are outlined below. Outdoor storage items shall be placed within an enclosure as necessary to achieve appropriate security and containment or for public safety reasons when determined necessary by the city. In general business (GB) and community shopping center (CSC) coning districts, the enclosure shall be attached to the principal building and be constructed of materials which are aesthetically compatible with the principal building. In limited inda~strial (I-1) and general industrial (I-2) zoning districts, the enclosure may be detached from the principal building. The east side storage area is effectively enclosed by topography and existing vegetation on one side, and the building on the other, and is not very visible from the street. The north side storage area is enclosed by a chain link fence. Therefore, no additional constructed enclosure (i.e. fence) is proposed. 2. The storage area shall be located in the side or rear yards and shall not encroach into any rega~ired front building setback area or other required setbacks. The storage areas are located in the side and rear yards and satisfy minimum setback requirements. 3. The outdoor storage area shall be screened from view from the public right-of--way and from any adjacent property which is designated for residential uses in the comprehensive guide plan. The adjacent properties are zoned and guided for limited industrial use. The plans include construction of an eight-foot berm and landscaping for screening of the storage area from Yankee Doodle Road. The north storage area has little screening, however, screening is not required from adjacent parcels that are zoned I-l. In the case of the north storage area, the adjacent parcel is zoned I-1 and contains a parking lot; transient trailer storage north of the building would not be incompatible with surrounding development. 4. The storage area shall not interfere with any pedestrian or vehicular movement. This area of the site east of the building is used only for storage and vehicular movement. There is no parking or pedestrian activity in this area. The plans show that a 30-foot wide drive aisle will be maintained through the storage area. 5. The storage area shall not take up required parking spaces or landscaping areas. The proposed storage area is already clear of vegetation, and relatively flat, and has been previously surfaced with Class V aggregate. No landscaping or other vegetation is proposed %3 Planning Report -Best Brands May 28, 2002 Page 6 to be removed to accommodate the proposed storage area, and required parking areas are located elsewhere on the site. 6. The storage area shall be surfaced with concrete or an approved equivalent to control dust and erosion. The surface shall be properly maintained to prevent deterioration. See "Grading" below. Concrete pads should be installed to support the trailer legs in areas of proposed trailer storage. The site plan shows an existing concrete pad and a new concrete pad east of the drive, but if trailers are to be stored adjacent to the building too, a new concrete pad should be installed there as well. Landscaping -The applicant is proposing to construct aneight-foot berm south of the driveway along Yankee Doodle Road. Twelve Black Hills Spruce trees are proposed to be installed on the berm. The berm and new landscaping should be irrigated. Gradinu -The existing site generally slopes toward the center of the site. The applicant is proposing to construct and/ or maintain the truck parking and material storage areas with a combination of three different surfaces: bituminous asphalt, recycled asphalt aggregate gravel surface, and Class V gravel aggregate. The applicant is not proposing to construct the perimeter of the outdoor storage areas with concrete curb and gutter. City Code requires that all of:=street parking and storage areas be surfaced with a material to control dust and drainage, and that the surface shall be properly maintained to prevent deterioration. Bituminous asphalt is the most-widely-used surfacing material to accomplish this requirement and is required for off-street parking areas. There are a number of outdoor storage lots within the City that have been allowed to use recycled aggregate surfacing for outside storage azeas, but Class V gravel aggregate storage areas have not been allowed. Those conditional use permits that have allowed recycled asphalt aggregate have included a condition for a periodic staff review of the condition of the surfacing to determine its adequacy for dust and drainage control. If recycled asphalt is used, such periodic review should be a condition of approval. If, upon review, the recycled asphalt aggregate surface is determined to be inadequate, the City will require the storage lot to be resurfaced with bituminous asphalt. The applicant should obtain a grading permit from the City prior to the construction of the proposed outdoor storage azeas. Detailed plans for this grading work should be prepared and signed by a registered professional engineer. Storm Drainage -Storm. water runoff from the site will be drained through existing storm sewer in the center of the site. g~ Planning Report -Best Brands May 28, 2002 Page 7 Utilities -The existing building on the site is connected to the City sanitary sewer and water main systems. No additional connections are proposed with this application. Streets/Access/Circulation -Access to the storage area is currently from one driveway entrance onto both Yankee Doodle Road and Terminal Drive and will remain unchanged with this development. Li htin -The applicant has recently upgraded existing building mounted lighting to metal halide wall packs. The north storage area includes pole-mounted lighting, with angled fixtures. No additional changes to the site lighting are proposed. Typically, we would request downcast lighting, rather than angled fixtures, however, the existing lighting does not appear to present a glare problem for adjacent property or the publicright-of--way. Easements/ Permits/ Right-of--Way -The applicant shall obtain a grading permit from the City prior to the construction of the proposed outdoor storage and parking areas. Detailed plans for this grading work must be prepared and signed by a registered professional engineer. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Portfolio Design, on behalf of Best Brands, is requesting a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for outdoor storage of semitruck trailers and materials on property located at 1765 Yankee Doodle Road in the SE '/4 of Section 8. The proposed outdoor storage use is compatible with the I-1 zoning and surrounding properties. The proposal, however, falls short of satisfying all of the performance standards in the City Code. The primary shortfall is with regard to surfacing. It is understandable that the applicant wishes to minimize costs, particularly since a further building expansion is anticipated. However, the continued use of Class V aggregate is not acceptable, and has not been allowed for other outside storage conditional use permits in the City. The milled bituminous is a better alternative to Class V, less costly than asphalt and better dust control than Class V. Milled bituminous or recycled asphalt, however, also does not comply with the performance standards, but has been allowed for other similar CUPs in the past and may be a suitable compromise in this instance. The applicant has indicated a willingness to install bituminous asphalt by November 1, 2007, or with the expansion of the building, whichever occurs earlier. A revised site plan indicating the storage area for the barrels and for materials and equipment, and showing where the trailers will be stored on the site should be submitted. Outdoor material and equipment shall occur only in the area of the existing concrete pad adjacent to the building and be used for such purpose only as necessary for changing mechanical equipment within the building. Long-term outdoor storage of mechanical equipment and parts should not be allowed. gS Planning Report -Best Brands May 28, 2002 Page 8 ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for outdoor storage of semi-truck trailers and materials on property located at 1765 Yankee Doodle Road in the SE '/4 of Section 8. 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, and proof of recording submitted to the City. 2. The existing trailers attached to the building shall be removed and building permits obtained for restoration of the building by September 1, 2002, to the satisfaction of the Chief Building Official. No more than 60 trailers shall be stored east of the building at any time, and no more than 60 trailers shall be stored north of the building at any time. A revised site plan showing where the individual trailers maybe stored shall be submitted prior to recording of the permit. 4. Concrete pads shall be installed to support the trailer legs in areas of proposed trailer storage. 5. Landscaping and irrigation shall be installed as shown on the Entrance Detail plan dated May ], 2002. The landscaping shall be completed by September 30, 2002. 6. All trailers must be stored in an orderly fashion. 7. A revised site plan indicating the storage area for the barrels and for materials and equipment, showing where the trailers will be stored on the site should be submitted. 8. Outdoor material and equipment shall occur only in the area of the existing concrete pad adjacent to the building and be used for such purpose only as necessary for changing mechanical equipment within the building. Long-term outdoor storage of mechanical equipment and parts should not be allowed. 9. The applicant shall obtain a grading permit from the City prior to the construction of the proposed outdoor storage and parking areas. Detailed plans for this grading work must be prepared and signed by a registered professional engineer. l Oa.The proposed outdoor storage areas shall be surfaced with bituminous asphalt. OR g6 Planning Report -Best Brands May 28, 2002 Page 9 l Ob.If recycled asphalt is used for the outdoor storage areas, the site will be subject to periodic review by city staff for adequacy of the material to control dust and drainage. The first review will occur two years following approval of this permit. If the material is determined to be inadequate, the City will require that it be replaced with bituminous asphalt. 11. The outdoor storage areas shall be surfaced with bituminous asphalt and including concrete curb and gutter, with required storm drainage provisions, by November 1, 2007, or upon expansion of the building eastward, whichever occurs earlier. 12. The outdoor storage areas shall not be surfaced with gravel base, Class V or otherwise. 13. All parking and storage areas shall be properly maintained to prevent deterioration. S7 FINANCIAL OBLIGATION - 08-CU-10-04-02, Portfolio Design C-U-P 1765 Yankee Doodle Road Best Brand 2"d Addition There are pay-off balances of special assessments totaling $11,140 on the parcel for which the conditional use permit is requested. At this time, there are no pending assessments on the pazcel for which the conditional use permit is requested. Based upon the study of the financial obligations collected in the past and the uses proposed for the property, the following charges are proposed. The chazges aze computed using the City's existing fee schedule and for the connection and availability of the City's utility system. The approval of the conditional use permit is not contingent upon the payment of these Connection/Availability Charges. The chazges become due and payable with connection to the City's Utilities. The chazges will be computed using the rates in effect at time of connection or subdivision.

Peter Nilger, AIA, Applicant PROJECT: Best Brands (Petitioner) 1765 Yankee Doodle Road Eagan, MN RE: Conditional Use Permit Application Outdoor Storage Attached please find materials in support of our application for a conditional use permit at the above referenced location. Following is a narrative description of our request. ABOUT THE OWNER /PETITIONER Best Brands Corporation is a manufacturer and supplier of bakery related products nationwide, with additional plants and distribution centers in Tampa and Dallas. The Minnesota facility was founded in 1976, and experienced significant growth within the past 10 years, including three major additions to the plant. In 1990, the company acquired 9.5 acres of additional property to the east for purposes of long range expansion. They currently occupy two structures at 1765 and 1767Yankee Doodle Road, totaling approximately 118,000 SF on a total of 16.7 acres of property. The plant currently employs 260 and runs around the clock. SUMMARY OF THE REQUEST The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to permit outdoor storage as allowed under Eagan Code Subd. 29.2. The nature of the outdoor storage is largely tractor-trailers along with miscellaneous materials consumed during the course of business. The areas of outdoor storage are designated on the attached site plan and total 133,258 SF, or 15% of the total available site area. The petitioner currently stores trailers outdoors on a permanent and semi-permanent basis, as well as trailers that are awaiting delivery and stored less than 24 hours. The petition also calls for a detached metal cargo trailer used to store volatile materials in accordance with the Fire Code. Pa e 1 of 3 CUP I`arrati~~e COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN DESIGNATION The property is currently guided industrial. CURRENT AND ADJACENT ZONING This property is generally within a large industrial zoned area north of Highway 13, on the northeast intersection of Highway 13 and Yankee Doodle Road. The property is currently zoned I-1 Limited Industrial, and is proposed to remain I-1. Abutting property to the east ,north, and west is also zoned I-1. The southern boundary of the property has currently inaccessible frontage on Highway 13, with the corner of Yankee Doodle and Highway 13 occupied by a Restaurant, also zoned I-1. SCREENING REQUIRED The petitioner is requesting approval of the screening plan that includes a combination of fencing, landscaping materials and minor irrigation to provide a 75% opacity as required by City code. Screening is limited to the Yankee Doodle Road frontage south of the existing building corner, generally screening the subject outdoor storage areas. No other boundaries are proposed to be screened for three reasons: 7. All adjacent properties are similarly zoned I-1 and not residential. Therefore screening would not be required per Subd. 29.2-C-3 "The outdoor storage area shall be screened from view from the public right of way and from adjacent property which is designated for residential uses in the comprehensive guide plan. " 2. The restaurant adjacent to the existing storage area is separated by a steep wooded slope approximately 20 vertical feet high, and the restaurant is guided industrial as well, therefore not requiring screening. 3. The frontage from Highway 13 is currently heavily wooded and provides a substantial natural screen. TIMING AND PHASING The petitioner requests implementation of the conditional use permit immediately to bring the property into compliance with Eagan code and allow for outside storage of trailers and other property related equipment. The petitioner is anticipating yet another expansion to occur within the next 5 years at which time the outdoor storage function would likely be re-planned into a new site and building plan. One current hindrance to this expansion is the existence of a major City utility easement along the immediate south edge of the existing building, a matter that would have to be dealt with at the time of expansion. The Conditional Use Permit would thus be amended at the time of expansion. With respect to site lighting, the entire building was upgraded with new Metal Halide wall packs, replacing the older, less efficient lighting. Then location of wall packs and existing yard light poles is shown on the site plan. No additional lighting improvements are anticipated at this time as the current lighting meets the security needs of the company. Though the plant runs 24 hours a day, the primary loading and vehicular access areas on the north and east side are protected by a chain link fence. The area is gated. In addition, a chain link fence with barbed wire separates Best Brands from the easterly neighbors, partially securing the undeveloped areas. Best Brands has no additional requirements for security fencing at this time. Page 2 of 3 CUP Narrative ~. The petitioner therefore requests that the performance standards for a Conditional Use Permit be phased as follows. The following would be completed by November 1, 2002: 1. Removal of the existing attached trailers (By September 1, 2002) 2. Installation of the proposed screening plan and irrigation indicated on the plan. 3. Partial paving and repair of the existing driveway serving the outdoor storage area roughly 100' from Yankee Doodle Road, as noted on the plan, with a combination of asphalt, crushed recycled asphalt paving, and repairs to existing Class V gravel where noted. The following would be completed by the earlier of the next building expansion into the storage area, or November 1, 2007: 1. Grading and pavement of the existing storage lot using a heavy duty bituminous mix design for truck travel and maneuvering areas and a recycled asphalt gravel in the trailer storage areas. SUMMARY We respectfully request that the City of Eagan grant the Conditional Use Permit as herein described. Page 3 of 3 CUP Narrative 9~ Agenda Information Memo June 4, 2002, Eagan City Council B. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - WAL-MART (1360 TOWN CENTRE DRIVE) ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To approve a Conditional Use Permit for seasonal outdoor sales to allow a temporary greenhouse on property located at 1360 Town Centre Drive, legally described as Lot 1, Block 1, Town Centre 70 l ltn Addition, in the NW'/4 of Section 15, subject to the conditions listed in the APC minutes. FACTS: • The applicant has applied for a Conditional Use Permit for a seasonal greenhouse for the sale of plant materials. • Wal-Mart is proposing the greenhouse as a solution to the seasonal storage problem the store experiences as a result of the large volume of plant materials delivered and sold during the spring months. • Wal-Mart is proposing their seasonal sales would be from May 1St to July 1St each year. • A Conditional Use Permit for outdoor sales and display for the fenced garden center on the south side of the building was approved with the initial plans, with the stipulation that the outside sale and display be restricted to garden items only. • A CUP allowing a produce stand on the Wal-Mart property was issued in 1997, and a CUP allowing Christmas tree sales was also issued in 1947. • The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on May 28, 2002, and recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit, subject to the conditions listed in the APC minutes. ISSUES: Since there is an existing CUP for a summer produce stand on this property, there maybe some concern about overlap of the proposed greenhouse with the operation of the produce stand. The CUP for the produce stand allows it to open as early as June 25cn each year, however, the applicant is proposing the greenhouse to operate until July 1 each year. The Council may wish to consider restricting the end date of this permit to prevent the overlap of seasonal uses on this property.

AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.40, 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: A. Will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, or general welfare of the neighborhood or the City. B. Will be harmonious with the general and applicable specific objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and City Code provisions. C. 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. /~ Plarming Report - Wal-Mart March 26, 2002 Page 2 D. 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. E. 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. F. Will have vehicular ingress and egress to the property which does not create traffic congestion or interfere with traffic on surrounding public streets. G. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of mayor 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 platted in 1991 and the store constructed in 1992. A Conditional Use Permit for outdoor sales and display for the garden center was approved with the initial plans, with the stipulation that the outside sale and display be restricted to garden items only. The initial building plans also included a 30,000 square foot future addition at the rear (east end) of the store, which has never been constructed. In 1998, Wal-Mart constructed an addition to the front of the store and extended the screening wall at the rear of the store to enclose and screen the storage area for trash dumpsters, wood pallets and bundled boxes. A CUP allowing Christmas tree sales on the Wal-Mart property also exists. The Christmas tree sales are located on the far end of the parking lot from the building. A CUP for a produce stand was also approved for the Wal-Mart property in 1997. EXISTING CONDITIONS The site is developed with a 120,000 square foot retail building. The building is located on the east end of the site, with parking to the west. The site is bounded by Town Centre Drive to the west, Duckwood Drive to the south, and other retail to the north and south. A stonm drainage pond is located between the building and Duckwood Drive. /o/ Planning Report - Wal-Mart March 26, 2002 Paee 3 SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the subject property: Existin Use Zonin Guide Plan North Kohl's CSC, Communit Sho in Ceriter SA, S ecial Area South Retail CSC, Communi Sho in Center SA, S ecial Area East Companion Animal HospitaVCornerstone self-stora e CSC, Community Shopping Center SA, Special Area West Eagan Auto malU Paradise car wash CSC, Community Shopping Center SA, Special Area EVALUATION OF REQUEST Code Requirements -The City Zoning Code allows for seasonal outdoor sales as a conditional use within the commercial zoning districts of the city, subject to the adopted standards The City Code defines a seasonal outdoor sale as "the outdoor storage and sale of goods within a duration of more than ten and less than 90 continuous days that are accessory to the principal use or structure." Section 11.10, subdivision 29.4 identifies performance standards for a seasonal outdoor sale. Seasonal outdoor sales also must comply with the standards applicable to temporary outdoor events outlined in Section 11.10, subdivision 29.3. This proposed CUP will be evaluated relative to these standards. Proposed Use -The applicant has applied for a Conditional Use Permit for a seasonal greenhouse for the sale of plant materials. Wal-Mart is proposing the greenhouse as a solution to the seasonal storage problem the store experiences as a result of the large volume of plant materials sold during the spring months. Compatibility with Surrounding Area -The existing development is commercial retail and this area along Town Centre Drive is considered one of the major commercial developments in the city. There are no residential properties neighboring the site. The store manager has indicated that abattery-operated cash register will be used for greenhouse sales. Also, outside storage of bagged item such as soil, compost, mulch, etc., will be kept within the existing fenced garden center area attached to the building. Li htin - No new lighting will be required for the greenhouse. Duration - Wal-Mart is proposing their season would be from May 1St to July 1St each year. All sales should cease and the structures should be removed by July 1St each year. Gradinu/Storm Drainage - No new pavement will be added as a result of this permit. /o a Planning Report - Wal-Mart March 26, 2002 Parkin -Parking will be provided on the property within the existing parking lot. Access -Access is provided to the area through the existing parking lot. Seasonal Sales Standards -Additional standards apply to the evaluation of a Conditional Use Permit for Seasonal Outdoor Sales. The following is an evaluation of this proposal as it relates to each of those standards listed in Section 11.10, Subdivisions 29.3 and 29.4. 1. Adequate off-street parking shall be provided to ensure that no obstruction or interference occurs with existing traffic patterns. The greenhouse is a temporary membrane structure, approximately 60 feet long by 25 feet wide. The proposed greenhouse occupies approximately 12 existing parking stalls near the site entrance from Duckwood Drive. The greenhouse location will leave the handicapped accessible stalls open. 2. No portion of the event shall take place within any public right-of--way. A minimum setback often (10) feet shall be maintained from all property lines and no portion of the use shall take place within 100 feet of any abutting property line of any residential use or residential zoned property, which is not separated by public right-of--way. The sale area will satisfy all building and parking setback requirements. In addition, there are no abutting residential uses or residential zoned properties. 3. The site shall be kept in a neat and orderly manner and the display of items shall not cover more than S% of the total lot as to not interfere with pedestrian safety, vehicular movement, emergency access and existing business activities. The sale area comprises 1,500 square feet of the 14-acre site. The greenhouse is proposed to be located over several existing parking stalls near the main access drive from Duckwood Drive. The greenhouse will be separated from the main drive aisle by an existing concrete island, which defines the rows of parking. 4. All signs for the event shall comply with Eagan City Code sign regulations. The City Sign Code does not have specific standards for seasonal sales. Temporary signs for special business events are allowed up to three in number, not exceeding a total of 25 square feet. Temporary signs displayed for more than ten days per calendar month require a sign permit. Any wall signs on the greenhouse should comply with the number and size restrictions for temporary signs in the Sign Code and a sign permit is required to display the signs for the duration of the seasonal sale. 5. Tents and temporary membrane structures having an area in excess of 200 square feet and canopies in excess of 400 square feet shall be subject to a building permit. Since the proposed structure exceeds 200 square feet, a building permit is required prior to construction each year. /03 Planning Report - Wal-Mart March 26, 2002 Paee 5 6. The owner or operator of the event shall have the written permission of the fee owner of the property on which the event is located to use the specific site. The property owner is the applicant. 7. Hours of operation shall be subject to this Chapter's regulations governing hours of operation of commercial businesses. The applicant proposes operations between the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. daily. 8. No parking shall be permitted on any adjacent parcel without the prior written permission of the adjacent parcel owner. All parking can be accommodated within the existing Wal-Mart parking lot. 9. The sale area shall be within an enclosure as necessary to achieve appropriate security and containment or for public safety reasons when determined necessary by the City. The greenhouse will enclose the sales area. Other such greenhouses in Eagan have included display areas off the ends of the greenhouse. Wal-Mart has not proposed to do that in this case, however, if any storage and display of plant materials outside the greenhouse does occur, it should not extend beyond the width of the greenhouse itself, nor more than 15 feet from the end of the greenhouse wall. Additionally, any outside displays must be contained within an enclosure such as a temporary fence. 10. The sale shall not encroach into any required front building setback area or other required setbacks. The proposed sale area is located in the parking lot and satisfies all building and parking setback requirements. 11. The sale area shall not interfere with any pedestrian or vehicular movement. The drive aisles within the parking lot will remain open. No sidewalks are impacted by the proposed sale area. The proposed greenhouse should help relieve congestion in the sidewalk area in front of the garden center as overstocking of product has resulted in plant storage on the sidewalk in the past. 12. The sale area shall not take up required parking spaces or landscaping areas of the principal use. There is ample parking on-site. Based on the minimum parking requirements in the City Zoning Code, the 120,000 square foot retail center requires 487 parking stalls and 750 are provided. The proposed outdoor sales area is located within the existing parking lot and covers approximately 15 parking stalls. 13. The sale area shall be surfaced with concrete or an approved equivalent to control dust and erosion. The sale area will be located within the existing parking lot, which has bituminous surfacing. The surface shall be properly maintained to prevent deterioration. /oy Planning Report - Wal-Mart March 26, 2002 Paee 6 SUMMARY/CONCLUSION The applicant is proposing the seasonal outdoor sale of plants and plant products and a temporary greenhouse structure at the Wal-Mart store at 1360 Town Centre Drive. This type of commercial use appears compatible with other uses in the area. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Conditional Use Permit for seasonal outdoor sales to allow a temporary greenhouse on property located at 1360 Town Centre Drive, legally described as Lot 1, Block 1, Town Centre 70 11`h Addition, in the NW '/4 of Section 15.

Additionally, any outside displays shall be contained within an enclosure such as a temporary fence. 7. Hours of operation shall be between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. only. /~s FINANCIAL OBLIGATION -15-CU-OS-02-02, Wal-Mart C-U-P Lot 1, Block 1, Town Centre 70 Eleventh Addition There are pay-off balances of special assessments totaling $-0- on the parcel for which the conditional use permit is requested. At this time, there are no pending assessments on the parcel for which the conditional use permit is requested. Based upon the study of the financial obligations collected in the past and the uses proposed for the property, the following charges are proposed. The charges are computed using the City's existing fee schedule and for the connection and availability of the City's utility system. The approval of the conditional use permit is not contingent upon the payment of these ConnectionlAvailability Charges. The charges become due and payable with connection to the City's Utilities. The charges will be computed using the rates in effect at time of connection or subdivision.

EAGAN, MN. 55123 02/ 16/02 To whom in may concern: We propose to construct a temporary greenhouse or but in our parking lot, from May 1st until July 1st. The structure is approx. 60ft by 25ft. Its purpose is to provide storage and a point of sale for live goods during the peak selling season of May 1st till July 1st. At this time we are unable to display enough live goods in our fenced in area to meet demand. This would enable us to follow all city regulations involving the use of sidewalks and outdoor areas, during the summer Garden Center season. We would no longer have to display merchandise on our sidewalks, which would present a much cleaner presentation of our store to our customers. Secondly we would be able to provide a more attractive selection of merchandise to our customers. This plan would eliminate approx. 15 parking spaces fora 60 day period. There would be no water, electrical or phone service to this structure. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.40, 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: A. Will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, or general welfare of the neighborhood or the City. B. Will be harmonious with the general and applicable specific objectives ofthe Comprehensive Plan and City Code provisions. C. 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 //3 Planning Report - Parkview Golf Club CUP May 23, 2002 , Page 2 essential character of that area, nor substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood.

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. F. Will have vehicular ingress and egress to the property which does not create traffic congestion or interfere with traffic on surrounding public streets. G. Will not result in the destruction, loss ar damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of mayor 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 subject site has operated as a golf course since 1969. In 1998, a portion of the overall site was platted into a lot to allow for the construction of a new clubhouse. The sign is proposed to be located on this lot. In that same year, a Conditional Use Permit was issued fora 100 foot telecommunications tower and equipment shelter on the golf club property. In March, the City Council approved a building permit for a golf driving range and a service center on the golf course property. EXISTING CONDITIONS The subject lot contains a clubhouse and a portion of the parking lot. An existing 4 foot by 8 foot free standing sign is located within a landscape island adjacent to the entrance. An 18-hole golf course is located on the unplatted parcel to the east. ~~Y Planning Report - Park~~iew Golf Club CUP May 23, 2002 Page 3 SURROUNDING USES The following table displays existing uses, zoning, and land use plan designations surrounding Parkview Golf Club: Existing Use Zoning Land Use Designation North City of Eagan -Well # 10; P, Public Facility; QP, Public/Quasi-Public Two-family dwellings R-2, Residential Double MD, Medium Density Residential South Lebanon Hills Regional P, Park P, Park & Recreational Open Park Space ~'4'est Single family dwellings R-1, Residential Single LD, Low Density Residential Family East Single family dwellings R-1, Residential Single LD, Low Density Residential Family EVALUATION OF REQUEST Proposal -The applicant would Iike to install a freestanding sign 10 feet in height and 56 square feet in area for the Parkview Golf Club located on property zoned P (Public Facility/Institutional). The Sign Ordinance defines a freestanding sign that is more than 7 feet in height as a pylon sign. The installation of a pylon sign requires the issuance of a Conditional Use Permit. Compatibility with Surrounding Area -The sign design appears to be appropriate given its location adjacent to residential uses and Cliff Road (A minor arterial roadway). However, freestanding business signage is not present on Cliff Road east of Pilot Knob Road, so this would be an exception. Site Plan -The site plan indicates that the sign will be placed 11.5 feet from the property line abutting Cliff Road. The setback from the east property line of the platted lot is not shown on the site plan. Shrubbery is proposed around the base of the sign. Two lights located at grade are proposed to illuminate the sign. The sign display area measures 8 feet in width by 7 feet in height (56 square feet). T.wo panels (4 feet in height total) for changeable letters are also incorporated into the design. The sign is proposed to utilize the colors green, tan, and black. Freestanding Business Sign Standards: Sign: Displa~~ Area: Pylon signs are permitted to be a maximum of 125 square feet in area per side. The proposed sign measures 56 square feet in area, including the changeable letter portion. /i.~ Planning Report - Parlcview Golf Club CUP May 23, 2002 Page 4 Obstruction of vision: No sign shall be located in such a place as to obstruct driver vision. The site plan indicates that the sign will be located 11.5 feet from the property line. The sign is located immediately to the west of the golf course entrance, so its location could obstruct visibility. Setback: All freestanding signage shall be set back 10 feet from all property lines. The site plan indicates that the sign will be placed 11.5 feet from the property line abutting Cliff Road. The setback from the east property line is not noted on the plan. Construction plans for Cliff Road indicate that the parking lot is located at the property line and does not maintain a setback. The site plan shows that the parking maintains a setback, although it is not drawn to scale so the distance is unknown. A revised site plan will be required to be submitted with the sign permit application indicating accurate setbacks. Source of Lighting: The source of light cannot be directly visible to vehicular and pedestrian traffic. The sign is to be externally illuminated with spot lights mounted at grade. Light sources are proposed to be screened by landscaping installed around the base of the sign. The changeable letter portion shall not be internally illuminated. Location:: Pylon signs are required to have 300 feet of separation. The applicant has not provided information regarding sign separation. However, based upon a visual inspection of surrounding properties, staff believes that the separation requirement will be met. Landscaping - As previously noted, landscaping is proposed around the base of the sign to screen the illumination source and delineate the sign area. Parkin -The site plan indicates that the new sign location will occupy one existing parking stall. The Zoning Ordinance does not specify a minimum number of parking stalls for a golf course or driving range. Conditional Use Permit Standards - City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.40, 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: A. Will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, or general welfare of the neighborhood or the City. B. Will be harmonious with the general and applicable specific objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and City Code provisions. C. 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 //6 Planning Report -Parkview Golf Club CUP May 23, 2002 Page 5 values within the neighborhood. D. 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. E. 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. F. Will have vehicular ingress and egress to the property which does not create traffic congestion or interfere with traffic on surrounding public streets. G. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of major importance. Finding: The proposed pylon sign appears to be compatible with adjacent properties and the general vicinity. It will not involve uses or materials detrimental to the general welfare of the community. However, the applicant can advertise adequately for the property with a sign that is less than 7 feet in height. City Code Violations - Three temporary banners are affixed to the chain link fence along Cliff Road. The Sign Ordinance prohibits signs from being placed on fences. Further, the sign ordinance states that no more than three signs totaling 25 square feet can be displayed on one occasion. It appears that the three signs exceed the area limitation as well. All nonconforming temporary signage shall be removed as a condition of this permit. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION Parkview Golf Club is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to install a pylon sign 10 feet in height and 56 square feet in area. The sign will replace an existing 4 foot by 8 foot freestanding sign that maintains a nonconforming setback. The site plan indicates the proposal could meet all applicable Zoning and Sign Ordinance provisions, but will require the removal of one parking stall. Although the sign is appears to be consistent with the Conditional Use Permit standards, staff believes that the applicant has a reasonable opportunity to construct a freestanding business sign that is less than 7 feet in height that could advertise for the golf course.

FACTS: • In processing a recent liquor license violation, questions arose regarding the interpretation of the relationship between hearings and penalties, the role of the administrative hearing officer and how penalties are determined. Staff also conducted research with other communities and determined that the administrative penalties in the Code were quite low and probably should be increased to more accurately reflect the implications of the liquor license violations. • At the March 4, 2002 City Council meeting, the City Attorney's office was authorized to prepare an ordinance amendment to Chapter 5 to clarify the hearing process and to change the civil penalties for violations in the sale of alcoholic beverages. • At the Apri12, 2002 City Council meeting, after approving the civil penalty and suspension of a liquor license for an on-sale establishment in the City, action was taken to review the liquor license issue pertaining to civil penalties at a future Special City Council meeting. • After reviewing this matter at the May 14, 2002 Special City Council meeting, the City Council provided further direction to staff regarding the final draft ordinance amendment to Chapter 5 of the City Code regarding beer, wine and liquor licensing to clarify the hearing process and penalty provisions and to change the civil penalties for violations in the sale of alcoholic beverages. • On May 20, 2002, a letter was sent to all liquor license holders in the City of Eagan informing them of the proposed changes to the City Code to be addressed by the City Council at the June 4 City Council meeting.

To receive the petition and authorize the preparation of a feasibility report by the City Engineer for Project 874 (Gift of Mary -Utility Extensions). FACTS: Rezoning and PreliminaiyPlanned Development • The site consists of five existing parcels, which will be consolidated and platted into a single parcel. There are four existing houses on the site, three of which will be retained as guest and staff residences. • The land is wooded with gently rolling topography with areas of steep slopes, and contains some wetland areas. The site has a significant topographical change of over 90 feet. A gas pipeline runs though the property northwest and southeast. • The proposed development is a residentiaUschool development. Twenty new two-story residential units are planned for the northerly portion of the site. In addition, a 95,000 sq. ft. school and community center building is planned on the southern portion of the site. Several playgrounds and sports fields are also incorporated into the plan and a pedestrian walkway system is planned throughout the site. • The proposed use would be considered consistent with the Limited Business zoning district, which is identified as one of the zoning options compatible with the land use designation in the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan for this area. • Access to the site is proposed from Lone Oak Road to the north and Hwy. 55 to the south. • A stormwater pond is proposed to be constructed in the southeast corner of the site adjacent to an existing wetland. • Approximately 20% of existing wetlands will be impacted, and a wetland replacement plan has been submitted for review pursuant to the requirements of the Wetlands Conservation Act. • Tree removal is approximately 45% of significant trees, as compared to the 30% allowable removal. The tree mitigation plan will need to be revised prior to Final PD approval to ensure that full mitigation amounts are satisfied. • The APrC recommended that this development be responsible for full parks and trail dedications, with the park dedication being deferred and collected if the land use changes in the future. /3y • A frontage road will be required on both the south side of the site adjacent to Hwy. 55 and the north side of the site adjacent to Lone Oak Road, and may require modifications to the site plan to accommodate the frontage roads. • Sanitary sewer and water main are not readily available to the site. The applicant has petitioned the City for extension of municipal services. • The APC held a public hearing on May 28, 2002, on the proposal and recommended approval of the Rezoning and Preliminary Planned Development. Utility Extensions • On May 2, 2002, City staff received a petition signed by Mr. Richard Copeland, representing Gift of Mary Children's Home, requesting the extension of public sanitary sewer and water main from the Louis Lane intersection with Hwy 55 and public water main from the Lone Oak Drive intersection with Lone Oak Road (County Road 26) to serve the Gift of Mary development proposal property. • One of the conditions of approval of the proposed Rezoning and Preliminary Planned Development is that the Council approval of the public improvement project and award of a contract for the extension of these petitioned utilities. • Based on the potential benefit to other adjacent properties along both Lone Oak Road and Highway 55 for the extension of these utilities, it would be appropriate for the City Council to authorize the preparation of a Feasibility Report to determine the scope, cost, schedule, and method of financing for the construction of these public improvements. ISSUES: Since the project would be exempt from property taxes, the APC recommended that the developer negotiate a payment in lieu of taxes to the City, to be agreed upon prior to Final PD approval. The APC raised concerns about the small amount of parking provided near the schooUcommunity center.

AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW Planned Development: Chapter 11.20, Subd. 8, B., Determination, states: "In considering any petition for such district, the Planning Commission and the Council in the interests of carrying out the intent and purpose of this Subdivision, shall determine whether or not such planned development will: (1) better adapt itself to its physical and aesthetic setting and that of surrounding lands than does development of the underlying zoning district; /5'9 Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Page 2 (2) be feasible for the owner and developer economically to complete according to proposed plans; (3) benefit the community at large to a greater degree than would development of the underlying zoning district." BACKGROUND/HISTORY The subject site contains three single-family homes that were built in the 1960s. The property is currently zoned Agricultural. The land use designation on this property has changed in the past three decades from residential of medium density (6-12 units per acre and later 0-6 units per acre) to Rural Residential, which guides future redevelopment away from residential use and toward office, commercial and institutional uses. EXISTING CONDITIONS The subject site consists of five parcels. Three single-family homes and associated accessory buildings are located on the four westerly parcels of the subject site; the easterly 26-acre parcel is undeveloped. Two of the existing homes are proposed to be incorporated into the site design and used as staff and guest residences; the third will be removed from the site. Existing wells and septic systems will need to be abandoned and connections to municipal utilities provided. The land is wooded with gently rolling topography with areas of steep slopes, and contains some wetland areas. The site has a topographical change of over 90 feet. The northern one-third of the site generally slopes to the north and the southern two-thirds slopes to the south. A gas pipeline runs though the property northwest and southeast. Access to the site is afforded from both Lone Oak Road and Hwy. 55. The site currently has a zoning designation of A, Agricultural, and a land use designation of SA, Special Area. The applicant is proposing a rezoning to PD, Planned Development and a Preliminary Planned Development to accommodate the mixed use and multiple buildings. SURROUNDING USES The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the subject property: Existin Use Zonin Guide Plan North Vacant PD, Planned Develo ment SA, S ecial Area South S-F Residential R-1, Sin le Famil Residential LD, Low Densit East S-F Residential; ElectricaUmechanical manufacturer A, Agricultural; I-1, Limited Industrial Low Density Residential; Industrial Office Park West S-F Residential A, A 'cultural SA, S ecial Area /So Planning Report - Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Paae 3 EVALUATION OF REQUEST Project Description -The proposed development is a residentiaUschool development. Twenty two-story residential units housing up to ten children and 2-3 adults each are planned for the northerly portion of the site. Three of the existing houses on the site will be retained as guest and staff residences. In addition, a 95,000 sq. ft. school and community center building is planned on the southern portion site. Several playgrounds and sports fields are also incorporated into the plan and a pedestrian walkway system is planned throughout the site. The proposal is described as a "development where house parents, children, and some staff live and attend school without a need for transportation trips on public roads." It is staff's understanding that the school would serve on-site residents only. The existing five parcels are proposed to be consolidated and replatted as a single tot. Access will be provided from Lone Oak Road to the north and Hwy. 55 to the south. The proposed Planned Development is necessary to accommodate the mixed use and multiple buildings on a single parcel. Within the proposed Planned Development zoning, both the developer and the City have greater flexibility in the overall design of the development and typical zoning standards do not strictly apply. Comprehensive Guide Plan -The site is designated SA, Special Area in the City's Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan. The Special Area designation was implemented in February 2001 with the adoption of the City's new Comprehensive Guide Plan. The property had been designated RR, Rural Residential under the previous Comprehensive Guide Plan. The RR land use designation was created following a study of the area, which until 1994 was designated D-II, Mixed Residential (0-6 units per acre). The outcome was a small area plan, which was adopted in 1994, and amended into the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan at that time. This small area plan was also included in the new Comprehensive Guide Plan, and although the map designation changed from Rural Residential to Special Area, the policies remained the same. In December 2001, the City rewrote the small area plan for the Lone Oak Area, which is now referred to as Special Area 3. Many of the Rural Residential goals and policies from the 1994 small area plan were carried over into the updated Special Area 3 plan. The Special Area 3 plan amendment is currently pending review at the Metropolitan Council, and has not been formally implemented to date. This plan, however, gives the best current guidance for development/ redevelopment in this area. The Special Area 3 plan includes many of the same policies from the 1994 small area plan. The eastern part of the area is identified for an O/S, Office/Service Land use designation, and Limited Business (LB), Neighborhood Business (NB) and Research and Development (RD) are listed as zoning classifications that would be consistent with the O/S land use designation. Additional policies state that the City will not support piecemeal development that would isolate existing residential uses, that rezonings would be supported in "areas of sufficient size to provide a cohesive development," and that "new development shall respond and strive to retain the natural features of the area ...." /s'/ Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Paee 4 The vision for future development of this area has remained consistent since the adoption of the 1994 small area plan. Commercial development was expected to continue in the area, and that has occurred with the development of Oakview Center about %z mile west of the subject site (8 commercial lots on 17 acres). While future development oflow-density residential uses was determined to be incompatible in this area because of the airport flight paths and noise impacts, office, institutional and neighborhood commercial uses were identified as uses that would be appropriate and compatible with the surrounding area and infrastructure. Limited Business (LB), Neighborhood Business (NB) and Research and Development (RD) were identified as compatible zoning districts for future development. The proposal is a mixed use with elements that are commercial, residential, and institutional. Such uses are considered as permitted or conditional in the City's LB zoning district. Similar types of commercial/residential developments within the LB zoning district in Eagan would be Marice Manor, Gramercy Park, Robert Lewis Shelter and Mary's Shelter. As already stated, the LB zoning district is one of the zoning options considered consistent with the Comprehensive Guide Plan land use designation for the subject site and the proposed use is considered consistent with LB zoning. Compatibility With Surroundinu Area -The site is bounded to the north by Lone Oak Road and to the south by Hwy. 55, effectively separating this site from adjoining development to the north and south. South of Hwy. 55 is single-family residential development, and the property north of Lone Oak Road is currently vacant, and guided for O/S uses, similar to this site. Adjacent property to the east and west directly abut the development site. To the west is rural residential development consisting of single-family homes on large lots, zoned Agricultural and guided the same as this site -Special Area with Office/Service land uses specified. The east boundary of the site is also the municipal boundary between Eagan and Inver Grove Heights. The property in Inver Grove Heights is zoned Agricultural and Limited Industrial, and is guided Low Density Residential and Industrial Office Park. Aimort 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 of its Metropolitan Development Plan that anticipates the impacts from the continued operation of the airport at its current location. The noise policy contours in Eagan place the subject property within Noise Zone 4. Within this area, multiple residential development and schools and institutional uses would be considered provisional uses, meaning that they must comply with certain structural performance standards to be acceptable according to MS 473.192. In particular, the building plans, materials and construction should be such that they will insure an interior sound level of 45 dBA as compared with a noise level of 65 DNL (based on the inside boundary of the noise zone). This would require an inside noise level reduction of at least 20 dBA (DNL level minus required dBA level) as compared with the noise level at the inner boundary of the noise zone, in this case 65 DNL. /S~ Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Page 5 Phasin -The Advisory Planning Commission and Council may wish to consider phasing options for the construction of this development. For example, to ensure that the schooUcommunitycenter is constructed, the APC and Council may wish to require that the schooUcommunity center be constructed before the new residences, or that the building permit for the schooUcommunity center be issued before the first certificate of occupancy is issued for any of the new residences. (See condition #14) The applicant has not provided detailed information about their phasing plan, but we anticipate the applicant will be prepared to address that issue at the APC meeting. Term -Staff suggests afive-year term for this Preliminary Planned Development. Reuse - At staff s request, the applicant's narrative addresses possible reuse of the buildings. In the event that the proposed use were to cease, some residences could be converted to independent senior living, and the schooUcommunity center building could be converted to assisted living, making use of the community dining and recreation facilities provided. Alternatively, the school/community center could be converted to office use, and the residences could be reused as single-family homes. In any event, the Planned Development can be restricted to only the specified use proposed, and any reuse or conversion of the property to a different use would be required to obtain City approval through the Planned Development Amendment process. Gradin -The existing site is lightly wooded with large variations in topography, and elevations ranging from 818 in the southeast corner to 910 in the east-central portion of the site. The northern one-third of the site generally slopes to the north and the southern two-thirds slopes to the south. Significant retaining walls will be necessary near the center of the site to accommodate the proposed grades for the development. Erosion Control - In several areas of this development, the topography of the site requires proper installation and effective maintenance of erosion control practices to prevent and minimize soil loss and impacts to down-gradient resources and water quality. This development is subject to the City's recently codified land disturbance and erosion control regulations. Storm Drainage -Storm water runoff from the development will drain via an on-site storm sewer system to a constructed storm pond in the southeast corner of the site. This pond will then flow through public storm sewer along the north side of Highway 55 to Pond GP-3 (as designated in the City Storm Water Management Plan - 1990) approximately 1,000 feet to the west of the new storm pond. The developer will be responsible for the construction of the storm sewer system from the new pond within the development to Pond GP-3. Utilities -Sanitary sewer and water main are not readily available to the site. The applicant has petitioned the City for a public improvement project for the extension of public sanitary sewer and water main from the Highway 55 and Louis Lane intersection approximately 300 feet southwest of the property, and public water main from the Lone Oak Road and Lone Oak Drive intersection approximately 2,200 feet west of the site, prior to the street upgrade of Lone Oak Road. These utility extensions are scheduled in the current Capital Improvement Plan (2003- /s.~ Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Paae 6 2007) for construction in 2003. Public improvement projects providing for the extension of these public utilities should be approved and awarded by the City Council prior to final plat approval for development of this site. The water main from Highway 55 and Lone Oak Road extended through the site should be constructed to City standards for public water main and covered with public drainage & utility easement. All well and septic systems within the development should be abandoned in accordance with City and County standards. All existing houses proposed to remain within the development should be connected to City sewer and water service at time of its availability. Access/Street Design -Public street access is proposed via Highway 55 to the south. The Trunk Highway 55 Access Management Plan (see exhibit), approved by the City Council and MnDOT in June of 1999, documents the closure, restriction, consolidation and other modifications to the public and private accesses along Highway 55. Access management is needed to preserve the main function of mobility on Highway 55, which is classified as a Principal Arterial (same as an interstate highway) in the Metropolitan Transportation System. The current speed limit on Highway 55 is 65 miles per hour. The Plan also identifies future frontage roads necessary to provide and maintain adequate access locations to the adjacent parcels, and depicts a Highway 55 frontage road along the entire south edge of the site to the Eagan/Inver Grove Heights border. This frontage road will provide public street access for parcels from the Highway 55/Louis Lane intersection eastward, including future developable property near the intersection of Highway 55 and Argenta Trail (County Road 63) within Inver Grove Heights. The proposed site plan submitted for this development does not account for this portion of the required frontage road. To accommodate the frontage road, the site plan will need to be revised to reflect a 32-foot minimum roadway within a 60-foot wide public right-of--way. The roadway should avoid wetland impacts where possible. This will potentially involve the shifting of the proposed pond, private drive, the schooUcommunity center building and parking lot to the north and west within the property. The developer should either petition for a public improvement project or be responsible for the construction of a frontage road, in accordance with City engineering standards and the Highway 55 Access Management Plan, along the entire south edge of the development. Public street access is also proposed from Lone Oak Road (Dakota County Road 26) to the north. Lone Oak Road is scheduled in both the City and Dakota County's current CIP (2003-207) for upgrade to a four-lane divided urban road section (curb & gutter, storm sewer, dedicated turn lanes, etc.) in 2005. With the upgrade, the Dakota County Transportation Department has discussed with City staff the provision for a frontage road to provide access for the numerous properties along the south side of Lone Oak Road, including this site. The developer should be responsible for the construction of the frontage road along Lone Oak Road adjacent to the site, in accordance with Dakota County standards. /Sy Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Page 7 Emer~encyAccess -The Fire Marshal has reviewed the development plans and indicated that the turning radius is too tight for emergency vehicles to access between the circular drive around the residential portion of the development and the main drive through the site. The design of that intersection should be modified on the final plans to the satisfaction of the Fire Marshal. Easements/ Permits/ Right-of-Wad This development should dedicate right-of-way for Lone Oak Road in accordance with Dakota County requirements. This development should be responsible for the acquisition of all regulatory agency permits required by the affected agency prior to building permit approval. Water Quality Issues -This 35.5-acre development is located in the City's G-watershed. The development proposes to meet the City's water quality requirement to treat stormwater runoff from the site by directing stonmwater to a treatment basin to be constructed alongside a wetland at the southeast corner of the site. Requirements for volume and area of water quality treatment ponds are based on the impervious proportion of proposed developments (i.e., land covered by buildings, parking lots, driveways, and walks). Of the 35.5-acre site, 25.2 acres is proposed to be developed, and the remaining 10.3 acres (located to the west and southwest) is proposed to remain undeveloped. Of the 25.2 acres proposed for development, 31 percent would have impervious cover. Therefore, a minimum wet-pond volume of 1.9 acre-feet covering an area of 0.6 acres would be needed to treat the stormwater generated by this development. Wetland Issues - A preliminary wetland delineation report filed by the applicant indicates that there are five wetlands totaling 2.86 acres on this development parcel. Since this delineation was conducted during anon-growing season, field verification of the delineation is required to be done before final approval. The frst wetland (Wetland 1) spans 0.98 acre (42,803 square feet) and is located alongside Lone Oak Road. Under the classification system of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, this is a Type 3 wetland. Although the Wetland 1 is not specifically designated as a public water wetland by the Minnesota DNR, a small portion of such a public water is located in the northeast portion of the site, according to the Protected Waters Inventory map for Dakota County. Due to its proximity, therefore, the Wetland 1 appears to be hydrologically connected to a public water wetland. The second wetland (Wetland 2) spans .005 acre (225 square feet), is located in a depression south of the Wetland 1 and is classified as Type 1. The third wetland (Wetland 3) spans 0.24 acre (10,636 square feet), is located in the southwestern portion of the site between two residential homes and is classified as Type 3. The fourth wetland (Wetland 4) spans 0.05 acre (2,210 square feet), is located in the south- central portion of the site at the base of a slope, and is classified as Type 1. /SS Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Page 8 The fifth wetland (Wetland 5) spans 1.6 acres (68,817 square feet), is located along the southeast boundary of the site and includes some of the ditch alongside Highway 55. This wetland is classified as Type 2. With exception of the small portion of the public water wetland as indicated above, all wetland areas of this parcel are under jurisdiction of the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act (WCA), which regulates draining and filling of all natural wetlands and excavation of certain types of natural wetlands. This program is administered by the City of Eagan, which acts as local government unit for WCA issues. It is highly probable that federal jurisdiction via Section 404 of the Clean Water Act -administered by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers -does not apply to impacts to these wetlands due to the wetlands' isolation from federal navigable waters. The applicant has submitted a WCA wetland replacement plan application to the city for the following proposed impacts: 1) fill 28.4 percent (0.28 acre or 12,159 square feet) of Wetland 1; 2) fi112.5 percent (0.006 acre or 277 square feet) of Wetland 3; 3) fill 100 percent (0.05 acre or 2,210 square feet) of Wetland 4; and 4) fill 15 percent (0.24 acre or 10,311 square feet) of Wetland 5. In total, 20 percent (.57 acre or 24,957 square feet) of the wetland area is proposed to be filled by this development. Because of the proposed fill impacts to wetlands, this development is subject to replacement plan provisions of the WCA. This means that wetland restoration or creation is required on a 2:1 basis, with at least 1:1 of that basis being replacement of 24,957 square feet of new wetland credit and no more than 1:1 of that basis being 33,276 square feet of public value credit (buffer areas, stormwater treatment basins, etc.). Public value credit is factored on a .75 basis. The proposed wetland replacement plan is subject to appropriate public noticing, review, and final approval by the City. The Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission recommended that the public review process proceed for the wetland replacement plan, and that a Technical Evaluation Panel meeting be held to review the technical details of the plan and prepare findings and conclusions. The wetland replacement plan must be approved by the City Council prior to Final Planned Development approval. Tree Preservation - A tree inventory submitted with this application indicates that there are five hundred three (503) significant trees in the inventory. The site has scattered areas of trees with a relatively even distribution of box elder, aspen, birch, black cherry, oak, ash, spruce, and cottonwood. Tree diameters range from 6" to 30", with an average diameter of about 12". The development as proposed will result in the removal of two hundred twenty-six (226) significant trees (44.9 % of the total). According to the City of Eagan Tree Preservation /S6 Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Pace 9 Ordinance, allowable tree removal for this type of development proposal (single-lot, commercial) is set at 30.0% of the total significant trees. With a proposed removal more than the allowable amount, tree mitigation will be required for this proposal. This required tree mitigation calculates to one hundred seventy-six (176) Category B trees. The applicant's Tree Mitigation Plan is short eighteen (18) Category B trees. A revised Tree Mitigation Plan should be submitted prior to issuance of a grading permit, or with the Final Plaruied Development, demonstrating compliance with the full mitigation requirements. The APrC recommended approval of the proposal, contingent upon a revised mitigation. plan showing full mitigation planting on site. Parks and Recreation -This development is located within Park Service District number one, which consists primary of large, single family lots and commercial/office development. Consequently, the park system plan does not reflect a need for a neighborhood park within this identified service area. Though no proposal has yet been received, staff has been apprised that other land within this service district is under consideration by D.R. Horton for a possible mixed use development that includes some residential uses. Consequently, there may be a need for a future park in this area, which could be done in conjunction with the City of Inver Grove Heights. Given the nature of the use, the designation of the development for parks dedication purposes is difficult to assign. Park dedications are intended to provide and support the recreational needs of residents to the degree that they need and use these services. When the services are provide privately, it is assumed that the development is not impacting the public park facilities in the community and therefore need not participate to the full extent in making a park dedication as those that provide no private amenities. This development is providing on-site recreational space and amenities that include a softball field, tennis courts, play ground, internal walking paths, community center and athletic field with overflow event parking. The amount of land area devoted to on-site recreational amenities exceeds typical land dedication amounts (6.6 acres provided vs. 3.5 acres required). The Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission (APrC) recommended that this development be subject to full parks dedication, which should be deferred and collected if the land use changes in the future. In regards to trails, there have been no developments that have been exempted from contributing a trails dedication in the past, including churches. Consequently, this development should be responsible for a trails dedication at the time of platting, payable prior to release of the final plat for recording. Off-Street Parking -The houses each have atwo-stall garage. Guest and visitor parking is provided within the driveways in front of the garages, and on one side of the street. The Fire Marshal has indicated that the circular drive, as proposed, is too narrow to accommodate on- streetparking and still provide sufficient width for emergency vehicles. The circular drive /5 ~ Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Pale 10 should be modified on the final plans to provide a minimum 28-foot width, and the final design shall be subject to review and acceptance by the Fire Marshal. Parking should be allowed only on one side of the street, and the other side should be signed "no parking." A minimal amount of off street parking is provided for the schooUcommunity center. For the 95,000 sq. ft. building, 46 stalls are provided. The applicant has provided information regarding staffing levels (95 people) and that 60% of staff will live on-site and therefore, will not require parking at the schooUcommunitycenter. Consequently, the 46 stalls represents 38 stalls for the 40% of staff who would live off-site, and an additional 8 visitor stalls. Supplemental overflow parking is provided in the athletic field area west of the schooUcommunitycevter. In the event that the proposed parking is inadequate for this use, the developer should convert the proof of parking area (the west athletic field) to improved parking stalls. The applicant has indicated that approximately 120 additional parking stalls could be gained in this area. The applicant shall submit plans showing a parking lot layout in this proof of parking area. The proposed use is not addressed in the City Code with regard to minimum parking standards. Therefore, the acceptability of the proposed amount of parking is a policy matter to be determined by City officials. Two enclosed stalls, plus driveway and on-street parking is consistent with typical residential development. Since the residential use is a children's home, it is expected that the garage parking will be sufficient for the 2-3 staff members per residences. The amount of parking for the school/community center appears sparse. Should the property convert to a different use in the future, the applicant has indicated that additional parking could be obtained by converting the west athletic field to parking. Additional parking to support a change in use of the schooUcommunitycevter could be obtained by would be reviewed and could be obtained by converting the west athletic field to parking. Options for reuse of the property maybe limited by the amount of future parking that can be gained on-site. Setbacks - A minimum building setback of 20 feet from the houses to the curb of the private street is proposed. This is consistent with the City's minimum code for adead-end private street. The houses are proposed to be located inside a circular drive, with rear yards oriented toward the open space and athletic fields. Building setbacks from the perimeter of the site should not be less than 30 feet, including the right-of--way for the future frontage roads. Setbacks between the residential units are proposed to be not less than 10 feet between buildings. Typical required setbacks between residential structures are 20 feet, therefore, ten feet is a deviation from typical standards. The acceptability of the proposed setbacks is a policy matter to be determined by City officials. The setback deviation can be accommodated through the Planned Development if deemed appropriate by City officials. Landscanin~ - A landscape plan has been submitted which shows a variety of trees and shrubs throughout the site. Tree buffers are proposed along the east side of the residential portion of the project, and south of the driveway into the site from Hwy. 55. A landscape buffer is also proposed on the north end of the site between the new residences and Lone Oak Road. Shrubs are proposed as foundation plantings around the proposed schooUconununity center building, and trees are dispersed throughout the housing area. /58' Planning Report - Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Page 11 The preliminary landscape plan is conceptual, generally identifying shrubs, shade trees, ornamental trees, coniferous trees, and sodded areas. A list of shrub species is provided, but individual shrubs are not identified graphically by species on the preliminary plan. The preliminary landscape plan includes both landscape and mitigation plantings. In addition to this overall planting plan, separate plans showing the mitigation and the landscaping should also be submitted with the Final Planned Development. Landscaping is required in areas to provide screening of parking and driveways and to serve as buffers between the development and adjacent property. Mitigation plantings are to be provided in addition to the required landscaping. The benchmark for investment in required landscape materials is 3% of the building value, however, the City may approve a plan that provides less than this 3% investment in landscaping if the purpose and intent of the landscape code is otherwise met. While the conceptual plan is acceptable for a Preliminary Planned Development, a more detailed landscape plan should be provided with the application for Final Planned Development. The landscape plan should be signed by a registered landscape architect and should include underlying grading contours, show plant quantities, and identify individual species graphically. Automatic irrigation is required for all landscaped areas and should be noted on the final landscape plan. Separate plans for landscaping and mitigation should be provided, as well as a combined overall planting plan. Residences -The proposed development consists of a total of 20 new residences and three existing houses that will remain and be incorporated into the site design. The new residences are all two stories and contain approximately 5,000 sq. ft. The typical floor plan shows six bedrooms, three bathrooms, kitchen, dining room, living room and basement play room in the main part of the house. Within each building, the live-in staff would have a private living area consisting of two bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchen, dining and living areas. Typical building elevations were submitted, but materials and colors for the buildings were not. Building elevations for all of the residences will need to be submitted for the Final Planned Development. The Final Building Elevations should include building height-and dimensions, and identify exterior materials and colors. The APC and Council may give direction to the developer, or add conditions to the Preliminary Planned Development specific to the final building plans. School/Community Center -The schooUcommunitycenter is two stories and contains approximately 95,000 sq. ft. Again, a conceptual elevation drawing was submitted for the Preliminary Planned Development. The building elevations show a peaked roof and several gables elements in the roof line. Exterior materials and colors were not provided. More detailed architectural elevations showing dimensions, exterior materials and colors must be submitted for the Final Planned Development. Final building elevations should identify exterior materials and colors and show height and other dimensions. /s9 Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Page 12 Li htin -The City Code requires that site lighting be provided as is necessary for security, safety and traffic circulation. A site lighting plan will be required with the application for Final Planned Development. The site lighting plan should show fixture details and photometrics. Lighting shall be indirect and diffused and shall not be directed upon public rights-of--way or adjacent properties. The source of light shall not be directly visible from off the property. Si a e - A monument sign is proposed at the north and south entrances to the site. Details of the proposed signs should be required at the time of Final Planned Development. The monument signs shall be set back at least ten feet from all property lines, and the sign design must comply with the requirements in the City's Sign Code. Other Site Design Requirements -Section 11.10, Subdivision 24 contains other specific site design requirements pertaining to all development other than those in R-1 and R-2 zoning districts. In addition to recreation space and site lighting, this subdivision contains standards specific to the provision of walkways, platting of the property, and public safety. All requirements set forth in this subdivision shall apply to this development. The developer shall submit detailed plans at the time of application for Final Planned Development demonstrating that these standards are satisfied. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION In summary, Gift of Mary is requesting approval of a Rezoning from A, Agricultural to PD, Planned Development and a Preliminary Planned Development of approximately 35.5 acres on property located south of Lone Oak Road and north of Hwy. 55 bordering on Inver Grove Heights in the NE '/o of Section 12. The proposed Planned Development is necessary to accommodate the mixed use and multiple buildings on a single parcel. Twenty two-story residential units, housing up to ten children and 2-3 adults each, are planned for the site, as well as a 95,000 sq. ft. on-site school and community center building. Several playgrounds and sports fields are also incorporated into the plan and a pedestrian walkway system is planned throughout the site. The existing five parcels are proposed to be consolidated and replatted as a single lot. The Advisory Planning Commission and City Council must consider whether the proposed use is appropriate for this 35.5-acre site, and if so, whether the specific development plans submitted are acceptable. Some of the preliminary plans will need to be revised in greater detail for the Final Planned Development application, such as building elevations and the landscape plan, and the property will need to be platted. In addition, other permits such as for the extension of utilities and for the wetland replacement plan, must be completed and receive approval before the Final Planned Development can be approved. Grading could take place in advance of Final Planned Development approval, but would require issuance of a grading permit and submittal of satisfactory Final Tree Preservation and Mitigation Plans, as well as final approval of the wetland replacement plan. /60 Planning Report -Gift of Mary May 28, 2002 Page 13 ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED To recommend approval of a Rezoning and Preliminary Planned Development on 35.5 acres located south of Lone Oak Road and north of Hwy. 55 bordering on Inver Grove Heights in the NE'/4 of Section 12. If approved, the following conditions should apply: 1. A written Preliminary Planned Development Agreement shall be executed and recorded with the County Recorder's office and proof of recording provided to the City. Platting 2. The property shall be platted. 3. This development shall accept its additional financial obligations as defined in the staff's report in accordance with the final plat dimensions and the rates in effect at the time of final plat approval. 4. This development shall dedicate 10-foot drainage and utility easements centered over all lot lines and, in addition, where necessary to accommodate existing or proposed utilities for drainage ways within the plat.

The facilities will be located on approximately 35.5 acres in the City of Eagan, Minnesota (the "City"). The site has been selected based upon the existence of natural amenities and buffers, consistency with the City's land use guidelines, the opportunity to develop a Planned Unit Development and property owners interested in selling. A detailed description of the project and its elements is contained in this narrative and in the materials attached to the application. The materials include a set of plans labeled Preliminary Planned Development Submittal for Site, Grading, Drainage, Erosion Control, Utilities and Landscaping for Gift of Mary Children's Home, Eagan, Minnesota consisting of fourteen plan sheets (PD Plan Set). The PD Plan Set includes a Boundary Survey with topography shown, the Concept Site Plan, the Concept Grading, Drainage & Erosion Control Plan, the Concept Utility Plan, the Concept Landscape Plan, the Tree Preservation Plan, Concept Wetland Inventory and Replacement Plan and Concept Elevations. The topographical survey is compiled from aerial photography obtained from Dakota County. Afield topographic survey will be completed as part of final plans after preliminary planned development approval. Site Description Parcels To Be Developed: Applicant proposes to develop the following five parcels: 510 Lone Oak Road; 3430 State Trunk Highway 55 (TH 55); 3432 TH 55; 3434 TH 55; and P.I.iv. 10 01200 O10 Ol. Location: The five pazcels are bounded by County Road 26/Lone Oak Road (Lone Oak Road) on the north, the City of Inver Grove Heights on the east, TH 55 on the south and private residential properties on the west. Please see the Boundary Survey in the PD Plan Set. Existing Conditions: The four pazcels with street addresses have single family homes and other improvements. The fifth and largest parcel, almost 26 acres, is undeveloped. The land is comprised of gently rolling to steep slopes, with the land rising from the south to a ridge that runs generally east and west across the middle of the site. The site has a topographical change of over 90 feet with areas of significant slopes. The high elevation of the property to the north offers exceptional views of the adjacent properties. A gas pipe line owned by Mobile Pipe Line ~~y r. ~j Company is located in an easement that bisects the property, running northwest and southeast. The site generally drains to the west and south, then into a depression along TH » west of the site boundary. The site is covered with a mixture of hardwoods, softwoods and clusters of trees meeting the criteria ofa significant woodland as defined by City ordinance. Low areas that are included in a preliminary wetland delineation runt along Lone Oak Road on the north, in the southeast corner of the property adjacent to TH 55, and other isolated pockets. Please see the Boundary Survey and the Tree Preservation Plan in the PD Plan Set. Surrounding Uses: The area around the site is rural residential in nature. The surrounding parcels to the east and west consist of residential lots of varying sizes (0.75 to 7.5 acres) containing single family residential homes and some small business and commercial lots. To the north is primarily vacant land being considered for golf course and residential development. To the south across TH 55 are several single family residential developments. Land Use And Zoning Classifications: The site and properties to the west in the City are designated as "Special Area #3 in the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan and aze zoned "Agricultural." The property north of Lone Oak Road is zoned "Planned Development" with designation for ofFice/service uses. The property across TH 55 to the south is zoned '`Single Family Residential." Proiect Description And Proaosed tise Gift of Mary Children's Home will be a residentiaUschool development where house parents, children and some staff live and attend school without a need for transportation trips on public roads. The housing component will be located on the northerly, higher portion of the site, allowing for optimal views. Twenty residential units of varying 2-story designs are planned on the site. Each unit will house up to ten children and up to three adult house parents. Each house will contain approximately 5,000 square feet (s.f.}, including garage and basement space. Multiple play areas also will be constructed within the housing azea. Please see the Concept Site Plan and the Concept Elevations in the PD Plan Set. The school will be located on the southerly, lower portion of the site. The school design shows a 2-story building comprising approximately 95,000 s.f. with classrooms, offices, physical education facilities and a dining facility. A drop-off area is provided by the main entrance and parking for staff and visitors occurs in a two lots at the southerly ends of the school building. Playground facilities and active sports fields will be placed next to the school. The school will be connected to the housing area by a system of private roadways and walking paths, which will be integrated into the natural slope on the site. The road will run parallel to the existing gas line easement to accommodate the change in grade with a roadway incline between 2% and 5%. Similazly, the pedestrian walkway system will be designed to provide easier access down the slope between the residential and educational facilities. Please see the Concept Site Plan and the Concept Elevations in the PD Plan Set. The Applicant proposes to reuse the existing residences at 510 Lone Oak Road and 3430 and 3434 TH 55 as staff and guest residences. The home at 3432 TH 55 will be moved or demolished. "~ /~s These proposed uses, except for the road and trail will preserve the slopes and maintain the majority of the significant hazdwood woodland area. Please see the Concept Site Plan and the Tree Preservation Plan in the PD Plan Set. Access County State Aid Highway 26 /Lone Oak Road: One access for the project is proposed from Lone Oak Road, a 2-lane paved roadway located along the northerly project boundary. The proposed access point is at Hermosa Lane which will provide full access to and from the project site on the north. Lone Oak Road is scheduled to be upgraded to a 4-lane divided highway in the year 2005. At this time, the access would become a median opening, preserving full access to the site. The project design anticipates the possibility of an increased right-of--way for Lone Oak Road. Please see the Concept Site Plan in the PD Plan Set. Minnesota State Trunk Highway 55 And Frontage Road: Another access for the project is planned from TH 55, a 4-lane state highway that runs along the south side of the site. The access will be at the existing driveway entrance used by 3432 and 3434 TH 55. The City is considering a future frontage road along TH ~5 across the site. Accordingly, the site plan shows an easement and setback from TH 55 sufficient to allow future construction of a frontage road. As directed by Ciry staff, a potential frontage road layout is sketched in west of the site along TH 55. If the City constructs the frontage road, the Applicant expects to eliminate the site connection to TH 55 and connect to the frontage road. Please see the Concept Site Plan in the PD Plan Set. Infrastructure Improvements Municipal Water: The Applicant requests that the City extend its municipal water main along Lone Oak Road from an existing stub at Lone Oak Drive to serve the project. As requested by City staff, the on-site water piping system will include a public water main connection from the proposed main in Lone Oak Road across the property in a southerly direction, that will connect to a public water main extension across TH 55 from the south, to provide a looped system. The water main extension across TH 55 to the site boundary will be constructed under City contract. The Concept Utility Plan in the PD Plan Set shows the approximate location of the City- constructed water mains in Lone Oak Road and along TH 55 and how the project would connect to them. An easement would be provided over the new public water main within the site boundary. Existing residences within the project boundary will be connected to the public water piping system as required. Sanitary Sewer: The Applicant proposes to connect the project to a sanitary sewer stub that will be brought under TH 55 by the City. The entire site will be connected to this extension as shown on the Concept Utility Plan in the PD Plan Set. The City Engineering Department has confirmed that there is adequate capacity in the satitary sewer system south of TH SS to accommodate flows from the project. Existing residences within the project boundary will be connected to the sanitary sewer as required. ~~~ Storm Water Drainage: Storm water from roads and other impervious surfaces on the eastern, more developed portion of the site will be conveyed to a proposed on-site pond located at the southeast corner of the site. The pond will receive runoff from approximately l6 acres of the development including the residential area, school building, private road and pazking lots on the site and will discharge to the existing off-site pond located west of the project site in accordance with the City's storm water management plan. The on-site pond will meet all City requirements for rate control and water quality treatment. The remaining portion of the site on the west, encompassing the existing residences and undeveloped woodland and open area, will continue to discharge overland runoff to the south. The majority of the runoff from this mostly undeveloped portion of the site will be continue to be retained in the wetland area in the southwest portion of the site, which overflows to the west into the existing off-site pond. Please see the Concept Grading, Drainage & Erosion Control Plan in the PD Plan Set. Preservation Of Natural Resources Wetlands: A preliminary delineation of all wetlands within the project boundary has been completed by Pinnacle Engineering, Inc. and is shown on certain plans in the PD Plan Set. Potential wetlands were identified along Lone Oak Road and TH 55, and in several low areas around the site as shown on the plans. The potential wetlands are likely of low quality based on current usage as storm ponds and ditches for the roadway system. A final delineation will be completed when the growing season officially begins, which is anticipated to occur in early May and, therefore, is not a part of this preliminary planned development submittal. The final wetland delineation will be based on hydrology, soils, and vegetation. Please see the Concept Wetland Inventory and Replacement Plan in the PD Plan Set. The Applicant proposes to avoid the majority of the ultimately delineated wetland area and as much of the 30-foot buffer strips surrounding the wetlands as possible. Minor wetland fills aze proposed along Lone Oak Road to provide driveway access to the site and to accommodate grading of the on-site roadway adjacent to the wetland. This wetland will likely be filled eventually as part of the County roadway widening of Lone Oak Road. Minor wetland fills are also proposed along the wetland adjacent to TH 55 to accommodate the south roadway and storm pond. Wetland mitigation will be proposed by expanding the existing wetlands and through public value credits provided in the proposed stone pond and buffer areas. Please see the Concept Wetland Inventory and Replacement Plan in the PD Plan Set. A Preliminary Wetland Delineation Report will be provided shortly for reference regarding potential impacts and plans for wetland replacement. This will be followed by the Final Wetland Delineation Report. Wetland impacts and replacement requirements will be refined after the final wetland delineation is completed. Tree Preservation Plan: The Tree Preservation Plan in the PD Plan Set identifies the proposed site plan as a layer on the tree inventory plan. The Plan includes a complete inventory of trees over 6" in caliper and annotations specifying which trees are proposed to be removed and which will be saved. /8'~ The 35.E-acre site is covered by a mixture of hardwood, softwood and clusters of trees, meeting the City ordinance criteria of a significant woodland. The proposed facilities have been tailored to fit the site's topography, resulting in preservation of much of the significant woodland area where the hardwood species are located. The plan also identifies an area of softwood trees (cottonwood, box elder) which will be preserved within the active recreation area amongst the residential homes. The Applicant's site design maintains the quality woodland areas and preserves the majority of the steep slopes and wetlands. The plan proposes removal of 45% of the woodland tree cover, which exceeds the City ordinance requirement of 30%. Replacement trees will be provided on- site asrequired by City ordinance. The landscape plan further enhances the site and the preserved woodlands and creates a quality landscape/tree preservation plan with tree buffer areas which meets the intent of all City requirements. Approvals Sought The applicant seeks the following approvals from the City: 1. Rezoning of the site from Agricultural to Planned Development; 2. Approval of the proposed Preliminary Planned Development; 3. Authorization for extension of a City water main along Lone Oak Road to the project; 4. Authorization for extension of a City water main and sanitary sewer line under TH 55; 5. Approval of a Wetland Replacement Plan; and 6. Approval of preliminary and final plat. The plat application is not included but will be submitted upon completion of title review to assure inclusion of any easements or other encumbrances. The Rezoning The City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan guides the property for office/service uses. The proposed rezoning from Agriculture to Planned Development (PD) conforms to the guiding. According to the Plan, the City intends that the triangle of land bounded by Lone Oak Road, TH 55, and the City's border with Inver Grove Heights should change over time from rural residential to office and community service. The project would convert vacant land to a residential school use serving the community. This meets the Plan's objective and is a better use of the land than its current vacant and single-family residential status. The project would likely increase the value of surrounding properties as the future prospect of more intense uses would be made real on this property. Since trips to and from the site are minimized by the children living on the same property with the school, the traffic impacts of the /~~ project would be minimal. The quality of the proposed structures, their placement, and the efforts to preserve woodland and wetland resources should enhance the value of surrounding properties. As noted above, the project would require extensions of City water and sewer services. Storm water ponding would be handled on the site. The City would not have to modify or add to its street system to accommodate the project. The Preliminary Planned Development The PD zoning and approval would permit construction of a school for children and on-site residences for the children, house parents and some staff. The facilities are designed to accommodate children from pre-school through twelfth grade. Playgrounds, athletic fields and off-street pazking also are part of the design. The project design is more fully described above and is shown in the PD Plan Set which has been submitted for approval. The Applicant expects to commence site work in the fall of 2002. Construction of the residences and school would begin in the spring of 2003 with occupancy of the residences in the summer of 2004 and opening of the school in the fall of 2004. Reuse Of Completed Proiect City staff asked Gift of Mary Children's Home to consider alternate uses for the facility in the unlikely event the program were to close down in the future. Two alternatives have been considered in designing the buildings and site plan. Alternative 1: The first alternative use would convert the twenty proposed homes to independent senior living homes, convert the upper floor of the community center/school to assisted-living units, and retain the lower floor of the proposed community center/school as a community center along with dining and recreation facilities. If this alternative scheme were to come to fruition, the majority of the facility modifications would involve the mechanicaV electrical systems and remodeling of the community center/school upper floor spaces. The homes aze designed with accessibility issues in mind, and the play fields behind the homes could easily be turned into a common park. Pazking in the residential azea would remain the same. The school and office azeas would need to be remodeled into assisted living units and their related spaces and would need plumbing and mechanical system updating. The proposed design takes this into account and provides a generous floor-to-floor height to accommodate future plumbing modifications. The water and electrical service should be adequate and the west play field could be changed into additional parking areas as required. Alternative 2: The second alternative use would sell the homes on an individual basis and either retain the community center/school as a school or convert the entire building to office space. If /8"9 this alternative became necessary, limited modifications to the site and buildings would be required. The homes would require little or no remodeling before resale. The play fields behind the homes could easily be turned into a common azea or park. Parking in the residential area would remain the same. If the community center/school were to remain a school, no remodeling would be required. If it were converted to office use, the school space would be remodeled into office space. The kitchen and dining areas could be retained as a cafeteria or lunch area. These changes are common and may include minor changes to the main building environmental s}stems. Again, the west play field could be made into a parking area to accommodate anv new parking need.

Eagan, MN 55122 Dear Ms. Wucherpfennig: As a group of concerned organizations, we are writing to ask Eagan city officials and planners to reject Mary Jo Copeland's proposal to build an orphanage in Eagan. The Family-Based Care Coalition represents local, state, and national child welfare organizations and individuals dedicated to the understanding that every child deserves a loving family. We have joined together to advocate that children who cannot remain with their birth families be placed with relatives, foster parents, or adoptive parents-rather than in institutions. While Mary Jo Copeland's orphanage proposal has some supporters, many in the Twin Cities community object to orphanage care. The Council on Black Minnesotans disapproves of Mary Jo Copeland's plan for an orphanage. The Metro Urban Indian Directors takes exception to the placement of Native American children in such an institution. The Gift of Mary's Children's Home, or "Mary's House" as the proposed orphanage would be called, would house 200 children ages 4-18, most of whom have experienced homelessness, abuse or neglect. Members of our Coalition have followed the evolution of the Copeland orphanage proposal closely as other cities have reviewed, and then rejected, her orphanage plans. Eagan city officials may want to know about the recurring problems with the Copeland orphanage proposal. Below, we will highlight and address these persistent flaws and some unanswered questions. What's so wrong with orphanages? What are the facts? Is there a foster care crisis in Minnesota? Which children will referred to the institution? What do laws say about orphanages? Golden Valley, Brooklyn Center, Brooklyn Park, Maple Grove, Victoria, and Chaska rejected Mary Jo Copeland's orphanage proposal. In all six cities, questions were raised about the prudence of institutional care of children. - Research shows that long-term institutional care negatively affects child development and adult productivity. Even good-quality institutions-those with more adults to take care of fewer children-deny children the opportunity to form a consistent relationship with a stable caregiver. One study found that, on average, institutionalizedchildren were cared for by ten 1 c/o North American unci o table Children ] 970 Raymond Avenue • Suite 106 • St. Paul, MN 55114-1 51-644-3036 • fax: 651-644-9848 • email: info@nacac.org different caregivers per year. Children reared in orphanages are at serious risk for developmental problems and long-term personality disorders because their early relationships have been fleeting. Institutional care increases the chance that children will grow into unproductive adults. Studies document that these children grow up to live in poverty and falter as parents to a greater degree than similar children who did not grow up in orphanages. Institutions deny children future chances for a family. Foster and adoptive parents provide children with the benefits of day-to-day family life. When birth family reunification is not possible, foster families frequently adopt children in their caze. Nationally, 64 percent of children adopted from the child welfaze system are adopted by their foster parents, and an additional 16 percent zre adopted by relatives. Children who are placed in an institution instead of with relatives or a foster family lose one of their best chances for adoption. Minnesota is not facing a foster care crisis. According to the Minnesota Department of Human Services, on any given day there are about 8000 children in foster care. 66% of foster children live with foster families. The remainder have special needs and are cared for in group homes and residential treatment centers. There are more than 5000 licensed family foster homes in Minnesota, with room for more than 13,000 children. Obviously, we are not facing a foster care shortage. Young children will not be referred to Mary's House by the Minnesota counties with the most foster children. David Sanders, Director of Hennepin County Children and Family Services, has repeatedly stated that he will not refer young children to Mary Jo Copeland's orphanage. Hennepin County Comrnissioner Peter McLaughlin said, "We don't have normal 4-11 year olds needing institutional care, but we do have troubled adolescents who may need periods of group care." Jenny Gordon, Director of Children and Family Services for Ramsey County stated that her county will not refer children to an orphanage. Carver County social services officials discouraged the Copelands from locating their facility in Carver County. Since most of Minnesota's foster children are from Hennepin and Ramsey counties, where will Mary's House children come from? The Copelands have not specified which counties have endorsed their proposal. They have not specified which counties have guaranteed to send children to Mary's House orphanage. What do laws say about orphanages? State and federal laws do not allow foster care money to be used for long- term orphanage care of children. Thus, counties would be responsible for paying 100% of the cost of day-to-day orphanage care. Institutions cost three to seven times what foster care costs. Mar}~s House will cost about $30,000 per child per year, according to past proposals. That's $6,000,000 per year, not including the educational expenses for 200 residents! Which counties /9S~ have committed money to this endeavor? Or will Mary's House stand empty, much like Synergy residential academy in north Minneapolis?' Section 475(5)A of the Federal Sodal Security Act instructs states and counties to place children in the least restrictive environment possible, e.g., family foster homes. Minnesota counties limit approval of institutional care to only the most troubled and disabled children. Yet Mary Jo Copeland has repeatedly stated that she will not admit highly txoubled children to her institution. Other aties rejected Mary Jo Copeland's orphanage proposal due in large part to her inability to define the group of children who would live in her facility, and how placements would be paid for. Six previous cities found fatal flaws in Mary Jo Copeland's orphanage proposal. Rancor and discension ensued during many informational resident meetings conducted on behalf of the Gift of Mary Children's Home. Yet concerned citizens investigated and learned that Minnesotans Gaze for foster children. Citizens found out that laws prohibit public monies from being used for long-term orphanage care, and that children need permanent homes-'real" homes. The Family-Based Care Coalition knows that we must build families, not orphanages. Parents are best suited to advocate for their children, teach them about culture, care for them when they are sick, and support them into adulthood. Institutions can never provide for children's mental and social health like families can. The children targeted by the Copelands belong in birth, foster, or adoptive families, not an institution. We would be happy to answer any further questions you may have about alternatives to institutional care of vulnerable children.

State law would consider the arrangement a "voluntary placement" because the county would pay for the child to Live outside the home, county officials reasoned Thus, pazents would have to go before a judge and get ap proval for the placement. Making pazents go to court creates a roadblock for her program, Hayden said. "What parent sees court as a good thing?" she asked. And parents aren't the only ones who aze reluctant. County social workers have told Hayden they can't in good faith suggest the resi- dential academy to families they work with -not if it means those families will have to go to court and have it on. their pennanent record. To date, just two children are waiting to get into Syner- gy, abrand new building that functions as a residence hall with eight bedroom suites and a 24-hour staff. Residents at- tend classes at Hazvest Prepa- ratory Charter School next door. Hayden said the problem is not likely to be resolved un- til June or July at the earliest, when officials will try to get the state law amended in the case of residential academies.

Placement process In Sanders' estimation, Synergy has faced some prob- lems that other residential academies haven't because of the school's mission to reach children before they get into uouble. "By holding onto that ini- tial intent - to intervene eaz- ty -there is a conflict with how the placement process works," he said. For :example, Covenant those in Synergy's target group. Based in Faribault, Minn.. and run by Catholic Charities, Covenant serves about 10 children, including some who have been taken out of their parents' homes. Those children are already in the system, so it isn't hard to get them into Covenant, Sanders said. Catholic Charities also has raised money from private sources to help fund the acad- emy so it isn't solely depen- dent on revenue from the county's foster-care system, Sanders noted. Across the country, resi- dential academies often have problems getting funding to keep runntng because the states pay only start-up costs, observed Tammy Pust, assis- tant commissioner with the Minnesota Department of Children, Families and Learn- ing. Most have realized that they must contract with the county foster-caze system so they can get children for their programs and access to the money that comes with those children. With an average of 2,000 children in foster care, Hen- nepin County has the lazgest number of kids in the child- welfazesystem. When an academy has trouble getting kids from the county, it also has trouble get- ling dollazs; Puss said.

This letter attempts to describe the basic ideas involved in our plan. It is our hope that you will be able to catch an understanding of where our heart is and what we are about. There is one main objective of Creative Care. That is, to retain the individuality and purpose of elderly citizens in our society. It is to provide the elderly with living and giving, not just housing. Individuality: We desire to maintain the individuality of our elderly citizens, while utilizing their life-long learning and accomplishments. We have planned a quiet living environment, in keeping with that that currently exists in this neighborhood. This plan starts with an initial `home' that is five separate homes. Ultimately, there would be three or four homes with an additional home for caretaker/managers, providing the planning commission is in agreement. The exterior appearance is that of a civil-war era. antebellum style home. The residents will each have their own 'home' with private screen-porch balconies. Here they can entertain or simply enjoy the beautiful, peaceful surroundings. There is also a common area where they can enjoy the company of other residents, entertain guests. or participate in resident-planned, recreational activities. The common area contains a kitchen bar with booths and tables, library/media center, and a beautiful fireplace lounge. Purpose: Many of our elderly citizens feel that the world is whizzing by them at breakneck speed, leaving them uselessly behind without purpose. We want to help them continue to achieve the sense of accomplishment and reward that they so deserve at this stage in their lives. In this age of dislocated, disrupted 'family' life, there is a need for reconstruction; both for the elderly citizens who possess the desire, skills, and ability, to give back from a lifetime of learning, as welt as for children without close grandparents. and adults without close parents, to learn those skills and life lessons from those who have lived life. Learning and loving go hand-in-hand. Children need the love and support of grandparent figures in their lives. Grandparents need the joy and energy that youth can impart. House plan: • The `homes' are desisrted at ¢round level with no stairs in them or in the common area. • The downstairs has additional storage for the residents who have downsized from a larger home. • There are also two apartments for nurses or PCAs who will live on-site and be readily available for the care and assistance of the residents. (W'e have included two photographs that present the style of the building. Both pictures show a basement level that would not exist in the final drawings. The land slopes to allow walkout living on both the upper and lower levels to assist the residents.) Our goal: for the life of each resident to be as individual and independent as they are. After all, it is their life. • If they want to travel and simply have someone forward their mail or pay their bills while they're gone, "bon-voyage" • If they want to live a very' quiet life and garden or read, we'll build the garden wall. • [f they want to teach or mentor children or adults, we have countless outlets anxiously waiting for them. • if they want to work part-time. we have part-time jobs in a number of areas that need their skills. W'e covet your help in partnering with us toward achieving this goal. We can't do it without you. This property location is perfect for a number of reasons: • It is a quiet, peaceful environment. • It is close to grocery stores and shopping for the elderly. • There are many schools, churches, and community organizations eagerly seeking mentors. 1~~'e su appreciate your time in reading tha, matzrial and giving this plan every consideration. 1~'e welcome any input you might have.

Dear Mayor and City Council, I am writing to voice my concern regarding the orphanage project. Although 1 understand the humanitarian appeal of helping children, I fear for the long term consequences of this particular project. Mary 3o Copeland seems to me a sincere, as well as charismatic, individual with a strong sense of personal mission and a desire to leave a legacy to her work with children. She is also very capable fundraiser and effectively utilizes the media to support her cause. However, if this project is approved and the orphanage is built, there are still many problems facing such an institution with the mission of housing and caring for children. The size and scale of this ambitious project will require a well trained and well organized administrative staff just to cope with its institutional problems. Many of the children likely to be housed in such a facility will have special needs requiring staff members with special skills es well. There is no guarantee that the funding for such an ambitious project will be sustained beyond the time when Mary Jo is able to guarantee it. 13tcause the warehouse model is out of step with current notions of foster care and child placement, them is also a danger that it could become a dumping ground for children impossible to place in conventional foster care. The current controversy regarding the funding of special education in the schools should be a warning that the community may ttsist providing the numbers of trained staff to maintain an adequate level of care. Out of state facilities might find it in their interest to export special needs children to such a project, magnifying the problem. If the institution struggles financially, in the long run it may be purchased and transformed to serve purposes far removed from its original goal. Many hospitals built by well meaning churches have been purchased and their functions changed because of financial pressures. A local community may have difficulty maintaining cantml over a facility of such size. in the changing racial and ethnic composition of our city foster care will require a sophisticated understanding of racial and ethnic diversity including language skills and the ability to interface with a variety of ethnic and religious groups. Most institutions are struggling to provide even basic competence in this area. These are problems more easily dealt with in family based foster cart. Finally,the current problems with sexual abuse only highlight the concern about the vulnerability of children in institutional foster cart. Ail foster children are at risk but historically the greater the number of children housed together the more vulnerable they are to predatory behavior. The possible long term consequences socially and financially to the community arc an unfortunate consideration which should be addressed in this type of project. I applaud your oonctrn for children needing placement in loving care. But I would hope that Eagan will dedicate itself to advancing community support for foster parents by helping with wmmunity resources to those foster families making this important commitment. Sincerely, Patrick O'Laughlin PhD. ao~ Pa`,e 1 ut' Mike Ridley From: W RANSLOW ZUBER II{ [rannyzuber@msn.com] Sent: Friday, May 17, 2002 3:56 PM To: mridley@cityofeagan.com Subject: Orphanage Zoning To Members of the Advisory Planning Committee: The Advisory Planning Committee should be aware, as it determines whether to recommend approval to zone land in Eagan for an orphanage, that it would, in all probability, not be used as an orphanage and that the Committee would very soon be asked to approve it for alternate uses. In 1998, Governor Arne Carlson got legislative approval to fund the development of three residential academies for children at risk of academic failure. An Urban Consortium that included the Seed Academy in Minneapolis and the Hennepin County Board got state approval to construct a 64 bed residence on the campus of the Seed Academy to house African American children ages nine to twelve who are at risk of academic failure and delinquency. The Hennipin County Board approved a per diem for the residence, known as Synergy Residential Academy, of $129.54 or $47,000 per year. This did not include school costs. The residence opened its doors in September of 2001. Since then they have never had more than nine children at a time. Parents, social workers and probation officers are not willing to place children there. In March of this year when, they were down to five children in the 64 bed facility, Synergy requested stop gap funding of $30,000 from the Hennepin County Board to avoid needing to close its doors. They advised Hennipin that they would improve case finding. The board reluctantly approved the stop gap funding. Then in April when they were down to three children, they came to the board again and asked for an increase in per diem from $129.54 to $610 per day to be effective until such time as they can increase their census to the point where $129.54 per day would constitute a break even point. Although county staff advised that it is unlikely that Synergy will be able to acheive the needed numbers of children in residence and although the board was clearly dismayed, they did approve the increase to $610 per day with the proviso that county staff come in with recommendations for alternative uses for the empty space within one month. Although the month has elapsed, the staff have not yet made recommendations because the state has not yet responded to the question of whether alternative uses would be permitted by the state. Neither the state nor Hennepin County did a needs determination as to whether a residential academy for African American children ages nine to twelve was needed and would be used. The same is true for the proposed orphanage in Eagan. In fact, Dakata, Ramsey and Hennipin Counties have said it is not needed and that they would not use it. Based on the history this year with Synergy Academy in Minneapolis, they clearly mean it. Eagan needs to be aware that they would soon be faced with a white elephant at worst or ,at best, a need to find and approve alternative uses for the orphange. The notion that this is no different than approving land use for a gas station or a super market is spurious. Large amounts of public money are involved. The per diems would need to come largely from tax dollars. The stunning 30 million dollars that the Target Foundation has pledged to build the facility is money for which the Target Corporation receives tax credits. The committee needs to think very carefully about this decision. Ranslow Zuber,LSW 111 E.

Priebe 4235 Thomas Ave. North Minneapolis, MN 55412 City Council Member, City of Eagan 3830 Pilot Knob Road Eagan, MN 55122 Dear council member, In the near future, a proposal by Sharing & Caring Hands titled The Gift of Mary Children's Home will be knocking on your proverbial door, hoping that Eagan will allow them to come in. I urge you to approve the allocation of land in Eagan for The Gift of Mary Children's Home. Foster care was conceived toward the end of the nineteenth century as an alternative to almshouses and orphanages. The mission was to provide temporary care to children in need until they ~w~~laced in a permanent home. The problem is that foster homes have become a permanent option for children who are not reunited with their family or adopted. In the year 2000, there were 2,500 children in foster care in Hennepin County. 1,055 of them were considered permanency children, not likely candidates for adoption or transfer of legal custody. 17% of the prison population, 30% of the homeless population, and 40% of those receiving public assistance were formerly in foster care. The number of available quality family run foster homes is decreasing rapidly while the need for these homes is skyrocketing. Foster parents are inadequately paid and minimally screened, trained, and monitored. Foster parents are ill prepared for the multiproblem children they serve~be:galso lack the availability of resources needed to be successful with these children. nndd The Gift of Mary Children's home will provide participants with much needed stability, educational structure, and a safe environment. A11 elements are necessary for healthy development of a child, and in particular children whose development may have impeded by abuse, neglect, or poverty. Twenty homes will house up to 200 children in need, providing a consistent environment provided by a skilled staff. Education will be provided on site at the K-12 school, while participants also learn social and life skill development. Currently, 75% of sibling groups that enter foster care are split up, taking away the only consistency a child may never have known. One of the main goals of The Gift of Mary Children's home is to keep siblings together. In addition, The Gift of May Children's home will attempt to combat negative long term impacts of foster care through the implementation often teachable virtues: self discipline, compassion, responsibility, friendship, work, courage, perseverance, honesty, loyahy, and faith. If given the opportunity, The Gift of Mary Children's Home will serve as a model to other communities that value the needs of the children they protect, all that is left is the land necessary to get this project started. That is where you come in. Thank you. r Sincerel f t ~ ~ .r Christopher T. Priebe - 5 aoy ~~ I ~ \\ ~~thur. \\'a. l~:.i_an. M~ >~ I ~.i Ala. '~. ~(li~~ i\lr. ;;ar.

Minnesota ~~ l~_' Re: Proposed Rezoning and Preliminary Planned Development Proposal, Gift of iViary Children's Home I am a city resident. I ask that you and your commission consider the following comments and requests as you review the referenced rezoning and planned development proposal: Single Phase Construction The Applicants and members of the Eagan City Council have assured concerned citizens that school-aged residents will attend a private K-12 school located on the site. Nevertheless, these concerns linger. The Applicants do not appear to have the funds in hand to complete the entire project in a single development phase. If completing the necessary fundraising proves difficult, there may be a temptation to develop the site in multiple phases. The residential portion of the site is likely much less costly than the school to complete. and the Applicant stated in the preliminary PD application that residents ~r•ould be on site before the school vas completed. Request: I ask that ~ ou recommend to the City Council that with any favorable action on this proposal that it be stipulated that no certificates of occupancy for the new residential units will be scanted until the school:'community center is completed. State Approval of the Private School The Applicant must secure approval from the State of ,Minnesota before opening its private school. Given the controversy surrounding the concept of a long-term croup home (as evidenced by attempts in the State Le_islature to bar their existence), this approval may not be easy to obtain. However, since curriculum can be developed and reviewed prior to completion of the school or the housins of any students at the site, it is not unreasonable to expect that this matter would be resolved prior to residential occupancy at the site. Request: [ ask that you recommend to the City Council that with am' favorable action on this proposal that it be stipulated that no certificates of occupancy for the new residential units will be granted until the state approves the Iti-12 curriculum to be provided to students at the site school. Special Education Services Cite of Eagan taxpayers within Independent School District 196 will be asked to shoulder approximately one-third' of the costs of any special education services provided to children residing at the site, since only hti•o-thirds of the costs of special education are reimbursed by state and federal programs. This tax burden will not be inconsequential. Twenty percent of ISD 196 student population currently receive special education services. with an average cost of more than S6,000 per student. It is recosnized by both supporters and opponents of the proposed project that the adolescent population living at the Site will have a higher percentage of students eligible for special education services, and that the level of services required ~~ ill be greater (and will cost more) than those provided the average ISD l96 student. Special education costs can range up to S?0.000 per student per year. If ~t0°.o of the 200 students on site are eligible for special education services, and if the avera__e cost is only ~0°o higher than average (i.e. 59,000), the dos ISDIe)6 will have to spe:nli more: than S'-IU,000 each year w provide z~lucatiun s~r~ ic~~ to student< at thz Vitt of ~lai1 Children~s Hume. I :un a strong supporter ut both public education and special zducatiun, and would expect my school district to do its be,t to help each student (public or private) reczive thz special education sen ic.s that thz~ are to be provided b~ law. Huwe:ver, I note that it is very unlikely [hat morn than a few cif any i of the children that mi~,ht live at the site currently reside within ISDl96. Dakota County officials have publicly stated that they will nut send children to this facility. Therefore, taxpayers in ISDIe>6 will be shuuldzrin~~ the special education costs now' be:inc borne by the communities in which any h[turz site resident nuee lives. Tlie Applicant has stated that traffic impacts associated with the proposed project will be minimal. since the development is intended to be larcely self-contained. However, students eVigible for special education may need to be bussed to the nearest ISDl96 school to receive these services. just as students at Faithful Shepherd Catholic School are currently bused to Glacier Hills Elementary School. Given the potential need, there may be significant bus traffic that would not be consistent the Applicant's claims of low traftc volumes. Request: To facilitate traffic volumes that are consistent with statements made in their project narrative, and to help address the tax burden of special education services, I ask that you recommend to the City Council that with any favorable action on this proposal that it be stipulated that the Applicant provide sufficient instructional space and facilities within its school buildinc for special education classes to be provided on- site, should ISDl96 consider this to be advantaceous and cost-effective. Additional Requests • The applicant has identified the potential reuse of the northern portion of this site as private residential properties should the proposed land use chance. To facilitate this potential reuse. I recommend that the Applicant be required to plat the residential areas as individual lots, and that all existing city codes be enforced in the development of this residential subdivision (e.g. Chapter 13 of the City Code): • I recommend that the City Council delay any vote on the proposed development until ~ The 30 public comment period on the Applicant's wetland application ends: The Applicant reviews and responds to any comments made on their Application: and. The City Council, acting as the Local Governmental Unit, thoughtfulh~ considers both public comments and Applicant's responses; and, • I recommend that the Cin Council comply with Minnesota Rules 8-120.0~?0 Subpt.:.C.(?) prior to acting on the proposed PD application and associated wetland application. Thank you for considering these requests and those provided by other city residents as you discharge your responsibilities as an advisory panel to the City Council.

Thanks, Joanna -----Original Message----- From: Mike Maguire [mailto:mikemaguire@visi.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 1:12 AM To: City Council Subject: Follow-up to 5-21 Listening Session Mayor Awada, Eagan City Council, and Tom Hedges, I want to thank you for taking the time to talk to me earlier this evening about the Eagan Citizen's Education Forum on the Orphanage. I sincerely hope that you find the information in the packet on the Forum to be informative and that you take advantage of the cable broadcast and taping that I mentioned. During our conversation there were a few questions that came up that wanted to clarify and get some clarification on as well. Tom Hedges and I talked after the listening session and I would like to use this email to thank him in advance for pursuing clarification forme on the "open meeting" laws (sunshine laws as I call them) and also for attending the other questions I will pose in this note. In addition, I would appreciate it if Tom, or whatever staff follows up, can address these questions in writing preferably before the May 28, 2002 Planning Commission hearing, but certainly on or before May 30, 2002 (hard copy or email is fine). First, in tonight's listening session Cyndee Fields suggested that the "open meeting" laws precluded the council from attending the May 6th Forum. Mayor Awada supported this position as well. Of course some councilmembers had schedule conflicts and that's duly noted. However, I am not sure Councilmember Fields' reading of, if not the letter, then the spirit of th e law is correct. I asked Tom if he would follow-up with me and clarify the provisions of the law in this regard and he indicated that he would. To clarify, my contention is that councilmembers attendance would not have violated the provisions of the law 1) because it was a meeting which was open to the public and 2) because the council and its members could attend the meeting without talking amongst themselves about the proposal and/or without ao9 attempting to act on the proposal in any way. Invitees, especially "Invited Guests" were not being asked to take any action on the proposal one way or another. They were invited to take advantage of an educational opportunity that I simply cannot believe the law would preclude. The spirit of the law, and I assume the letter is consistent, is to prevent public bodies like the Council from holding meetings and doing public business in nonpublic public ways. Thus, merely attending an educational forum, whether there is business before the council or not, would not have been a violation of the law unless and/or until member of the Council actually "did business" and/or made decisions on the proposal. Discussions that would serve supplant or replace the council's official activity or action as a body would be in violation of the law. As such, my question is whether or not attendance at the Forum for 2 or more of the City Council would have been a violation of the law. Of course, we unfortunately live in a litigious society and there is not doubt that anyone can sue or accuse anyone of anything. To be clear, I'm not asking whether or not one could see clear to interpret or misinterpret the law, I'm looking for a legal opinion on whether or not attending would, as Ms. Fields and Mayor Awada maintain, be a violation of the law. Secondly, Ms. Fields suggested, in essence, that the Council is bound by their duty to look only at "land use" issues and suggested that looking at many of the issues that were discussed and asked about at the Forum, would be inappropriate. She suggested it was akin to approving the development of a Wal-Mart but trying to restrict them from selling white shoes. To say the least, I disagree with the analogy. I am interested in what issues exactly the Council is legally bound to consider and or prohibited from considering in regards to the Copeland proposal. I'd like to know, for example, what findings of fact would the Council need to make in order to rightfully approve the Copeland proposal and what findings of fact would they need to make in order to reject the proposal? It is my contention that talking about and considering how the proposed facility will operate and what it will do is indeed a consideration of land use. I want to make my position as we discussed it clear. On pages 4-5 of the Copeland proposal it states: "The City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan guides the property for office/service uses. The proposed rezoning from Agricultural to Planned Development (PD) conforms to the guiding. According to the Plan, the City intends that the triangle of land bounded by Loan Oak Road, TH 55, and ~~° the City's border with Inver Grove Heights should change over time from rural residential to office and community service [underline added]. The project would convert vacant land to a residential school use serving the community. This meets the plan's objective and is a better use of the land than its current vacant status." Mary Jo Copeland's recent claims (Star Tribune March 11, 2002) that the home would be a "on a rural residential site" aside, this portion of the proposal speaks to the proposed use of the land and suggests that in order to be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan, justifying the rezoning, it needs to be either office or community service. Certainly the Copeland proposal does not propose an office use. It suggests that the home will be a community service and thus consistent with the City's Plan. As such, it seems that discussions that go to whether or not this is indeed a community service, the proposed use of the planned development, are entirely appropriate considerations for the Council to make, and for meeting speakers to address. This is in contrast to the hypothetical Wal-Mart example for a number of reasons. A Wal-Mart would need to be built on land that had been zoned or rezoned for commerce/retail use. As such, the Council would look to how the applicant, in this hypothetical- Wal-Mart, intended to use the land and based on whether or not that activity was appropriate use by the zoning, or rezoning, it would approve or reject the proposal. If Wal-Mart proposed building townhouses on land zoned commercial/retail it would, I assume, be rejected. Provided that Wal-Mart was or was intending to use the land for commerce/retail, the Council would have little to no justification for rejecting the proposed development because it conformed to the zoned or rezoned use. Provided that Wal-Mart was indeed engaged in commerce/retail use, within the bounds of appropriate laws and regulation, they would be immune to the City Council's preference for them to sell or not to sell white shoes or any other legal product. If the Council tried to interfere with that activity, Wal-Mart would have strong standing by pointing to its appropriate use of the land, vis-a-vis, the zoning. to short, in the hypothetical case of Wal-Mart, the selling of white shoes clearly falls under the appropriate land use, commerce or retail, and is consistent with the zoning. In contrast, there are many questions about whether or not the Copeland's proposal would be a "community service" and thus consistent with the City's desired land use. I am not suggesting one way or another whether or not it is a community service. I am aoP~ suggesting that the relative merits or lack thereof of the Copeland proposal and how it proposes to serve youth, i.e. the community service, is indeed part of the land use discussion and not separate from it. It would seem that the City Council not only has standing to consider and talk about the community service, what the facility will do and how it will do it to benefit the community, but it has a responsibility to talk about these land use issues and take testimony on these questions. To be sure, there would still be questions about how bound to the City's Comprehensive Land use Plan guides, the Council is required to be. I would also appreciate response on those questions as well. Thirdly, beyond the questions of the consistency of the proposed use of the land with the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan, what specifically are the parameters and limitations for the Planned Development zoning the proposal seeks? Generally speaking what kind of development "qualifies" as "planned development" as opposed to residential development? My best guess would be that there are some density differences and/or perhaps some implications in terms of the number of units being proposed for development. Is that -correct? What other implications am I missing? Can you also provide me with a brief summary of the number of "planned developments" that have been proposed in Eagan in the last five years and a table showing the size of the planned development and the time span between initial submission of the proposal and final approval of the proposal (perhaps 'plat' is the more appropriate term.)? Finally, part of Ms. Fields' argument hinged on the suggestion that this is a "private" facility and I'm interested in knowing what exactly is the difference between a public and a private facility? As I understand it, the Copeland's proposal is, again, proposed as a community service. That would seem to add a public character to the proposal. Beyond that however, the Copeland's seem to be proposing using the facility to serve participants who are in public/foster care of some sort. As such they would be taking in and using public funds for their operation. Those funds, as I understand it, would not come just from the human services provided to residents and funded by the state, but also from the educational services the cost of which would be bore by residents' home school districts or state of origin. That's why, as I understand it, the Department of Human Services and the Department of Children Families and Learning, at the least, would need to provide a a/o series of licenses and approvals for the facility to operate. If this is the case is it still a private facility? Even if it still technically a private facility it seems in every other way a public facility where the City of Eagan has, I would think, eminently defensible standing to question and or seek assurances on the operations of the facility. I would be interested to know what the private/public distinction is and what specific limitations it does or does not put on the Council's consideration of the proposal. No doubt I have asked a number of questions and I want to be clear about my motivation. I have certainly spoken and written publicly about my concern for the process that the City, the Mayor, and certain councilmembers have engaged in fielding and considering this proposal. I have not done so to suggest any illegality but instead to suggest that certain public pronouncements have not contributed to but, in my judgment, detracted from to a truly productive dialogue that helps to answer citizen's questions, respond to their concerns, and cut through the buzz of the media and the din of advocates on all sides. Ultimately, the goal of both the Planning Commission meeting, May 28, 2002, and the Council's scheduled meeting on June 4, 2002, where the proposal is tentatively scheduled for consideration, is to help members of both groups do the same so that they can consider the proposal with the due consideration it deserves. The bulk of my questions seek to understand and clarify exactly what the parameters of these discussions should be. I am confident that councilmembers and meeting participants alike will be well served to have these questions answered and appropriate clarifications made. That said, I would be remiss if I did not make clear that I think there are still many questions that I and other Eagan citizens have about this proposal and exactly what it is that the Copelands are proposing. Individually, you may not and that's your prerogative. I do however think that the Council's decision on this proposal should ultimately rest more on whether or not this is truly a good idea and the depth of that conviction and less on unclear assumptions about what can and cannot be considered. I am not opposed to Mary Jo Copeland or the truly important contributions she has made to the Twin Cities metro area. I applaud her commitment to others, her commitment to community service, and her passion for people. She is without a doubt an asset and her efforts should be accordingly valued. That said, her commitment to community service does not make her or her organization any more or less open to misjudgment or miscalculation. Good intentions do not always equate io good results. Her primary experience has been helping and sheltering the poor, not necessarily acting ~// . 5. / ~. en loco parentus. Shortly after Ronald Reagan was elected, perhaps even during his 1980 campaign, he paid for and aired a now infamous advertisement suggesting that we would be well served to "trust but verify." There are a number of questions that still have not been answered about this proposal and unfortunately, I think, for many of Eagan's residents some of their trust has been eroded because the questions have been allowed to persist. I fear that approving this proposal before those questions have been answered will further erode that trust. If that's the case, I'm not sure that Eagan residents will be able to be as welcoming as they might otherwise be. Even if your inclination is to trust the Coplelands and their plan, it would seem to me, incumbent upon the Eagan City Council, as representatives of all of the citizens of Eagan to "verify' their trust and to be sure that this is the right thing to do. For me personally, I'm finding the suggestions that the proposal should be rejected out-of-hand to be just as extremist and worrisome as those that suggest the proposal should be approved as-is regardless of the whether or not the questions that surround it are answered. As I've indicated at the opening of this note, I would appreciate as prompt and full a response as is possible. Thank you in advance. Sincerely, Mike Maguire 3325 Wren Ln.
