07/12/1988 - City Council Special MINUTES OF A SPECIAL MEETING OF THE EAGAN CITY COUNCIL Eagan, Minnesota July 12, 1988 A special meeting of the Eagan City Council was held on Tuesday, July 12, 1988, at 6:30 p.m., at the Eagan Municipal Center. Present were Mayor Ellison and City Councilmembers Egan, Gustafson, McCrea and Wachter. Also present were Planner Jim Sturm, Director of Public Works Colbert, and City Administrator Hedges. LONE OAK TRAVEL DEMAND MANAGEMENT PLAN City Administrator Hedges introduced the Lone Oak Travel Demand Management Plan Study that was recently completed by the engineering firm of BRW at the request and financing of Northwest Airlines, Wachovia Bank and Trust, and Larry Laukka. He stated that the purpose of the Travel Demand Management Plan was to examine future transportation needs relative to corporate expansion plans for these companies. He further stated that the City transportation engineers, SEH, have been asked by City staff to review the study in detail. The Director of Public Works presented an in-depth overview of the'study explaining the number of trips that are allocated as a result of the current indirect source permit for Northwest Airlines, the proposed improve- ments that would be required to increase trips to NWA and other related issues. Mr. Bob Byer of SEH appeared and discussed his review of the study, offering many confirmations of the problem but also advising the City Council that the study does not adequately consider future growth projections for the cities of Eagan and Mendota Heights. The Director of Public Works stated that the report is missing a factor of evaluation referred to as the corridor movement which relates to traffic that travels ghrough the community without any local destination point. City Councilmember McCrea suggested that other neighboring cities be made aware of the trans- portation implications that corporate growth will cause in northwest Eagan. The City Administrator stated that cost of the proposed improvements is an important factor and that Northwest Airlines has asked for consideration by the City to participate in expenses that are incurred by the proposed transportation improvements. Mayor Ellison suggested that the City staff contact other cities and agencies, review all roadway alternatives and, further, that the City staff review financing options for the proposed and necessary transportation improvements. There was no formal action taken but City staff was directed to proceed as directed. p/2 Special City Council Minutes July 12, 1988 , i;y4_ •~'9 KINGS WOOD SECOND ADDITION Mayor Ellison stated that Jim Horne, the owner and developer of Kings Wood 2nd Addition, contacted him outside the City Council chambers and requested a further continuance to the July 19, 1988, City Council meeting for any consideration of the Kings Wood 2nd Addition. In a motion by Councilmember Wachter, seconded by Councilmember McCrea, all members voting in favor, consideration of the Kings Wood 2nd Addition Plat was continued to the July 19, 1988, City Council meeting. PONDVIEW FINAL PLAT The Director of Public Works reported that the Pondview Addition final plat is in order for consideration. In a motion by Councilmember McCrea, seconded by Councilmember Egan, with all members voting in favor, the final plat for Pondview Addition was approved as presented. R-88.51 FINAL PLAT FOR TOWN CENTRE 100 SIXTH ADDITION The Director of Public Works stated that the development agreement and all other documents are in order for consid- eration for the Town Centre 100 6th Addition. Mr. Jim Sturm, representing the Planning Department, advised the Council that an amendment to the Planned Unit Development Agreement may be required for this final plat. City Council- members expressed a concern that the final plat not be considered if all documents are not in order and, therefore, in a motion by Councilmember Egan, seconded by Councilmember McCrea, with all members voting in favor, the Town Centre 100 6th Addition final plat was continued to the July 19,1988 City Council meeting.

ADJOURNMENT MEMO TO: ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION MEMBERS FROM: CITY ADMINISTRATOR HEDGES DATE: July 8, 1988 SUBJECT: SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING/TUESDAY, JULY 12 A special City Council meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, July 12 , 1988, at 6: 30m p.m. Enclosed is an agenda outlining the various action/discussion items. The City Council would like the Advisory Planning Commission to join them at approximately 7: 30 p.m. to discuss the freeway zoning ordinance and senior housing site selection identified as IV. For your information I have included the following background information regarding those two items: JOINT MEETING WITH ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION FREEWAY ZONING ORDINANCE During the review and update of our Comprehensive Guide Plan, a new zoning classification entitled Freeway Zoning was given consideration but never enactment. The ordinance entitled, "Freeway Development District , " is tailored after a classification in the City of Bloomington zoning ordinance. The purpose of the ordinance is to allow a limited mixture of land uses made mutually compatible with controls and high standards; to encourage and accommodate commercial uses in freeway locations convenient to the metropolitan area; and to provide for integrated roadside business areas designed to offer a group of essential services to the motoring public in compact and convenient locations. Another purpose is to protect the freeway from congestion by proper location of high-traffic generators. Due to workload and other issues, the further consideration for the freeway development district classification was placed on hold last summer. There was a brief discussion in early June regarding the freeway development district classification by the City Council and it was determined that this item would be further discussed in a joint session with the Advisory Planning Commission to determine whether the City should proceed further with enactment of this classification which requires an amendment to the zoning ordinance. A copy of the freeway development district zoning classification amendment as presented last summer, is enclosed for your review. In the absence of Dale Runkle, who is vacationing, John Voss, our consulting planner, will be present to review the ordinance. SENIOR HOUSING SITE SELECTION Approximately three (3) years ago, Dakota County was designated a community development entitlement county once it exceeded 200, 000 population. Entitlement County simply means that the Department of Housing and Urban Development will commit funding available to the County for housing related purposes. Dakota County made a determination that entitlement funds would be distributed to various groupings of cities throughout the County to determine their best use of funds. The Cities of Apple Valley, Burnsville and Eagan became a grouping as designated by the County. A committee was established made up of City Planners for the three (3) communities and in 1986 it was determined that available resources would be used to hire a consulting firm to prepare a senior housing study master plan for the cities of Apple Valley, Burnsville, and Eagan. The firm of Health Planning and Management Resources Inc. , was retained and a report was completed in early 1987 and presented to the respective cities. For a copy of the executive summary of that housing study, refer to the enclosure. It was then determined in late 1987 by the committee for the three cities, in each year for the following three (3) years, a large portion of the entitlement funds would be earmarked to a respective city for the purpose of acquiring a senior citizen housing site. The City of Eagan was chosen as the first City to use the funding for purposes of selecting a site. Therefore, dollars are allocated in 1988 for that purpose. The City Planner was given direction to study site locations that may be available to the City for senior housing. His study has been completed and is available for City Council/Planning Commission review. Enclosed is a copy of that study including the necessary maps. The study analyzes eight (8) sites in Eagan. Through the selection process, the City must prioritize its sites into two or three of the most suitable for senior housing then staff would be authorized to perform an appraisal on the sites with a final determination for acquisition made by the Council. There was some discussion during 1987 about appointing a separate committee to study the site location process and if this separate committee is to be used to examine the site location process, that determination should be made as soon as possible. Again, in the absence of Dale Runkle, Mr. John Voss will be present to review the senior study report at the meeting on Tuesday. /s/ Thomas L.

SUMMARY OF SENIOR HOUSING STUDY FOR THE CITIES OF APPLE VALLEY , BURNSVILLE AND EAGAN Prepared By : HEALTH PLANNING & MANAGEMENT RESOURCES , INC . March 26 , 1987 L Prime Professional Center 4970 Lincoln Drive Edina, Minnesota 55436 612-935-6077 SUMMARY OF SENIOR HOUSING STUDY FOR THE CITIES OF APPLE VALLEY, BURNSVILLE AND EAGAN completed by: Health Planning & Management Resources , Inc. March, 1987 Overview The study completed by HP & MR focused on current and projected needs for housing for senior citizens. This included the demand for housing specifically designed for seniors as well as the identification of seniors who will need assistance to remain in adequate housing in their senior years . The results of the study indicated that although the senior populations of the three Cities are relatively small in relationship to the total population of each City, there is a definite need to address the issue of adequate housing for seniors , and this need will continue to grow through the remainder of this decade . The following table summarizes the demand projections for housing assistance for lower income seniors and the total demand for housing specifically designed for seniors by the year 1991. The table also identifies projections for demand for senior housing by adult children in the market area who desire to move an elderly parent nearer to them. Study Process The demand projections were a result of a detailed study process that included the following steps : 1 . A comprehensive socio- demographic analysis of the elderly population in the three Cities as well as Dakota County. 2. Two random sample written surveys mailed to households of senior citizens and middle aged adult children in the three Cities . 1 3. Key informant interviews with City officials and provi - ders of services for the elderly. 4. Focus groups with senior citizens and with middle adults who have needs for housing near them for parents . 5. Research on a national , state and metropolitan basis related to needs and demands for housing and services for seniors . The results of the study are summarized in a comprehensive Executive Summary and the detailed information and analysis process is presented in an extensive technical document. A brief overview of each part of the analysis follows . Socio-Demographic Analysis The socio-demographic analysis identified that the senior populations of each city will grow in proportion to the total populations in the future. Although income levels of seniors in the area are higher compared to the Metropolitan area , there is a portion of seniors in the market area who have very low or lower incomes as defined by federal guidelines. A significant majority of the seniors in the market area are homeowners. This will have long range implications in that single family homes can become functionally difficult or impossible for seniors as they age and become more frail . Random Sample Surveys The survey designed for adult children was mailed to a random selection of 1 ,009 households with persons aged 35 to 64 years old. 35.1 percent of households surveyed responded. The results indicated that 33 percent of the survey respondents would move their parents to the area if the parents developed func- tional and/or health problems and 4.5 percent of respondents were currently in the process of attempting to find suitable housing to move their parents closer. In addition , 16 percent of the respondents anticipate that they will provide some financial assistance to their parents in the future. 4 The survey designed for senior citizens was mailed to a random selection of 1 ,129 households with persons aged 65 years or older. 31. 1 percent of the households surveyed responded. The results indicated that 90 percent of the respondents would consider senior apartments if they needed a housing alternative. There was a diversity in income levels of senior households , which closely reflected the income distribution of seniors in the census data. Nearly one fourth of the respondents anticipate that they will move to another area during their retirement years; however, one half of these seniors will maintain a resi - dence in Minnesota. Key Informant Interviews A total of 14 personal interviews were held with persons from a variety of backgrounds. The interviews indicated a unified concern to develop alternatives in housing and services for seniors. The two most frequently cited needs of seniors according to those interviewed were a better public transporation system and subsidized housing for very low and lower income elderly. Focus Group Analysis Nineteen persons participated in the adult children focus groups. All participants had at least one parent over 65 years of age . The most frequently raised concerns included : provision of elerly subsidized housing and/or greater options in rent assistance, moderately priced senior housing with stable rents , and better public programs to meet the social needs of the elderly including senior citizen centers and transportation services. Forty- five senior citizens participated in focus groups. The seniors were uniformly supportive for providing more housing options for seniors in the market area , and felt that there was currently a pressing need. 5 Site Analysis for Housing Designed for Seniors The following areas were identified as optimal areas in each of the three cities for development of seniors housing. Apple Valley ( 1 ) Northwest corner of County Road 42 and Pennock Lane ( 2) Southeast corner of Pilot Knob Road and Essex Avenue Burnsville ( 1 ) Southwest corner of Nicollet Avenue and County Road 38 ( 2) Southeast corner of McAndrews and Burnhaven Drive Eagan ( 1 ) Cliff Road and Cedar Avenue area ( 2) Town Center Drive and Lexington Avenue (north side of O ' Leary Lake ) Recommendations In addition to the projected need , the following recommendations should be considered. ( 1 ) All developments given consideration as " senior housing" should contain special features designed for the elderly, such as emergency call systems , wheel chair accessibility, and supportive services , e. g. , meals , housekeeping , etc. ( 2) Consideration should be given to commitments by developers for rent increases based on predetermined formulas in exchange for favorable financial treatments and assistance by the Cities and/or Housing Authority. This will be particularly important for older persons living on fixed incomes . 6 i ( 3) Preference should be given to integrating lower income seniors into market rate projects to the extent possible . ( 4) The three cities should consider combining forces in the development of senior services, including housing. A "model project " which would involve a campus development should be considered , and a variety of services for seniors should be located on such a campus . ( 5) Support programs should be designed for seniors who desire to remain in their single family homes (approximately 75 percent of the senior population)to assist them in remodeling and conversions that will make the home functional for them as they age . ( 6) Criteria should be developed that would allow the development of accessory apartments on existing single family lots for children who want to bring a parent to live near them. (7 ) In the development of new housing , emphasis should be placed on barrier free design which can enhance the long term marketability of a project . 7 • C' tyy0 L L 'O 4- 4 O .0 01+-1 V C C •-. 1-1 41 H r O C O C = .r L 0 1.

I- to D 4 N- Population trends are an indication that there will be a need for some type of housing to accommodate the growing number of elderly within the City. Statistics show that from 1980 to 1985 the elderly population in Eagan jumped from 442 persons to 647 per- sons,an increase of 47%. This accounts for 2 .2% of the City's population and the 1991 population projections predict an elderly population of 1,572 persons or 4% of Eagan's total population. In 1980, 4. 7%of the households in the City were occupied by per- sons 65 or older. Many of these homes were occupied by a single personn and was not owned by the occupant. Of the homes owned by the the elderly, one fourth of them were valued at less than $50, 000,well below the average price for an Eagan home. The income level of Eagan's elderly residents resemble the income of the residents of Dakota County overall. Though the elderly in- come is similar to residents of Dakota County, the incomes of Eagan,s elderly fall short in comparison to elderly residents of the nearby communities of Apple Valley and Burnsville. The forecast is that the income levels of Eagan, s elderly will in- crease in the upcoming years. The general makeup currently consists of the elderly person living on a lower income than the average and living alone in a home which has a lower market value than most of the other homes in Eagan. The predictions indicate that the income levels will increase along with the population of the elderly in the City. This facts and predictions indicate a demand for some type of housing designed for the elderly resident of Eagan. The City therefore has taken on the task of searshing for possible sites for the development of a Senior Housing Project. Before picking the possible sites we needed to establish the reasons that seniors seek this type of housing and what the loca- tion ofthe project should offer to it's inhabitants. Our goal is to provide an alternative form of housing to be solely occupied by the senior residents of Eagan. This housing site should possess features that will satisfy the criteria desired by seniors wishing to live there. REASONS FOR MOVING TO A SENIOR HOUSING PROJECT The number one reason that the elderly move out of their homes into some sort of senior housing is because of health problems. Many of these people will move into nursing homes or some sort of health care facility. While this is not the the type of facility being sought after by the City,a senior housing development can provide better access for the elderly by removing the barriers that may impede the movement of the elderly person with health difficulties. Another reason is the elimination of home maintenance. The upkeep of the home can become physically demanding as well as costly and because of these senior housing becomes an alternative. Also,as mentioned earlier the elderly houshold many times consist of only one person and many of these people are female and are tradi- tionally unaccostumed to the time and labor that it takes to - properly maintain a home. In 1985,55% of the elderly in Eagan were female. zThis will remain consistant in the future,and be- cause of this the desire for senior housing is important in the City. A third important reason is security. At the present this would not be an important consideration for Eagan's elderly residents but as the overall population of Eagan increases so will the posssibilty of being affected by a serious crime. The elderly feel safe among groups and in an environment that is more con- trolled than the single family dwelling or a more hetrogeneus apartment complex. To be near their children is an important reason that people will seek senior housing in the City. Eagan is a relatively young com- muity made up of many young families that have moved away from their parents and homrtown and have transplanted themselves in Eagan. As parents age ,retire and sell their homes there becomes a desire to be near their sons and daughters again. So they will seek adequate housing near their cildren. Projections for the City estimate that about 100 elderly person will hayed moved into the City in order to be near their children by 1991. Because of this prediction and the other reasons mentioned there is the demand for a senior housing development within the City. LOCATION CRITERIA Now that we have established,due to the reasons for moving into elderly housing, a need for a senior housing project we must develop some sort of locationcriteria. Seniors would like a site that provides easy access and a desired closeness to facilities that will be used by the residents. When inquired, more than half would be comfortable with having certain services within a six block or 1/2 mile radius. This is considered a comfortable walk- ing distance. Since 95% of the elderly still drive many are not hesitant to drive five miles or more in order to purchase goods and services. But as they age many will lose their ability to get to these destinations by driving themselves. These points must be taken into account when choosing a site. The first priority for seniors in the location process is to be near some type of health care facility. In the City health care facilities are very limited with only two clinics existing atthe present time and one more planned for the future. The nearest hospital is located in Burnsville. The lack of health care facilities could limit the possible location of this development in Eagan presently. A second important priority is easy access to grocery shoppingr The city provides provides many good grocery stores that are lo- cated throughout the city. This priority gives the city the op- purtunity for locating in nearly all the sites under considera- tion. Other retail shopping is another important priority. Included in this would be clothing,hardware and more importantly,health needs. Many of the strip centers provide these shopping services and all sites have a strip center located within walking dis- tance.Eagan has access to Burnsville Center and other shopping malls surrounding the Burnsville Center. Opening soon in Eagan will be a Target department store which will in all proability attract other retail businesses to the city. The future looks bright fpor the the accommodation of this priority. Another important consideration in the location process is the access by the elderly to community services. This services would include City Hall, the U.S. Post Office and a community center. The City Hall is located on the corner of Pilot Knob Road and Westcott Road with a branch of the Dakota County Library located adjacent to it. This is near two of the sites mentioned in this study. The post office is located on Lexington Avenue North of Lone Oak Road. AS for accessability to this from the eight sites, it is very limitedand would not have much of an impact on the location of the development.There is at this time no com- munity center located in the city which could be use as a gather- ing place for seniors. Providing access to these goods and services is an important aspect in this decision making process. At the present time the Metropolitan Transit Commission(MTC) offers very limited service to the city. In the future the MTC will expand it's service to the community. All the sites mentioned in this study are located on streets that would likely become MTC bus routes. Also many senior projects provide mini-bus service to aid the mobility of the elderly. Now that we've estblished what type of elderly person is likely to live in this project and the location criteria to be use in determining a site,we will look at several sites throughout the city and determine a site best suited for development of this project. THE SITES Before describing the sites individually some comments should be made about the similarities of all the sites that would not af- fect site determination. First of all, the sites are all located on major collector streets which will in the future become routes for the MTC buses,so this is not a individual consideration. Secondly,all of the sites are located within walking distance of a strip center. Each of these strip centers have a grocery con- vienance store with fuel pumps and other shops which vary from center to center. These centers can be utilized by the elderly for their daily needs. _ Another site consideration not mentioned previously but which is common to all the sites is park and recreation facilities. All of the sites are near some sort of park facility. Some are located near park facilities that are better equipped than others but all are located of facilities which are adequate for use by elderly residents of Eagan. Also, we should consider houses of worship. Eagan presently has 18 churhes of all types of faith and denomination scattered throughout the city. Because of the numbers, locatiions and variety of worshipping places this would not prove to be a hin- derance in the location process. Finally, it should be noted that all the sites have ample amount of land for the development of this housing project. There seems to be no restrictions in the size of the parcels of land that would have an effect on them being considered for the project. THE SITES Site #1 is located off Pilot Knob Road 1/2 mile south of 35E in the southeast 1/4 of section 16. The parcel at the present time is located in a planned development and is zoned A (agricultural) . The site is ample in size for the use desired. The site has good access to health care facilities with a health clinic located on PIlot Knob Road about 1 mile north of the site. Also, a plan to build a health care clinic within the same planned development of the housing project. This site also provides excellent access to grocery and retail shopping,being within waalking distance of Town Centre shopping center. This meets the shopping needs of the elderly resident and is located within the 1/2 mile distance deemed comfortable. The one quality that is unique to this site and not the others is it's location as it pertains to community services. This site is within walking distance of City Hall and the Dakota County Library. SITE #2 This site,No.2 is located in an area known as Pilot Knob Center and O'Neil's Pond. The site has several options within these two plats. Pilot Knob Center is zoned CSC (community shopping center) and O'Neil's Pond is a planned development and has zoning class- ifications ofCSC,LB (limited business) and GB (general business) . A change in zoning will have to be obtained for both plats. The site has good access to the health care clinic located at Pilot Knob Road andMarice Drive and to the future clinic on Pilot Knob Road south of 35E. Site #2 location is excellent in satisfying the grocery and retail shopping concerns. Both plats are located within the same 1/2 section as the Town Centre shopping centerand surrounding shopping areas. This site also has good access to City Hall and the public library but the access is not quite as convenientas site #1 but it is more than adequate. SITE #3 This site is located on property which is zoned A (agricultural) and is located in southeast 1/4 of section 30 on the corner of Cliff Road and Rahn Road. Access to a health care facility is good. A health clinic is lo- cated on Nichols Road 1 block north of Cliff Road. The clinic is approximately 3/4 mile from this site. Accross the street from site #3 is the future home of the Target Department Store and Cub Foods Supermarket which is under con- struction at the present time. This will enable the resident of the housing project to be within walking distance of grocery and retail shopping. SITE #4 and SITE #5 The two sites have been placed together because of their relative closeness to each other and their closeness to the same amenities that are important location factors. Both are located in southeast 1/4 section of 28,site #4 being at the southeast corner and Site #5 being at the southwest corner of this 1/4 sec- tion. Both parcels are zoned single family(R-1) . Site #4 is situated_at the corner of Cliff Road and Pilot Knob Road. Site #5 is located on the corner of Cliff Road and Thomas Lake Road. The two sites are located aproximately three miles from the nearest health care facility and two miles from the nearest grocery and retail shopping center. To reach the health care faclity and shopping areas,the resident must travel by a vehicle to reach these destinations. SITE #6 Site #6 is located in the northeast 1/4 of section 27, south of Diffley Road and west of Lexington Avenue. The property is in a planned development and is presently zoned mutiple(R-4) . The site is four miles from the nearest health care facility and five miles from the nearest grocery or retail shopping area. The distances from these areas is bordering on what is acceptable travel by seniors who would likely occupy this housing project. SITE #7 This site is located along Diffley Road,just west of Blackhawk Road in the southwest 1/4 of section 20. The property is located within a planned development and is zoned multiple(R-4) . Site #7 is approximately the same distance from both present health care facilities and Eagan's two major grcery and retail shopping areas (Town Centre and Target-Cub Foods) . Thisis ap- proximately three miles from Town Centre and two miles from Target-Cub Foods. SITE #8 Site #8 is located in southwest 1/4 of section 30 on Nichols Road 1/2 mile north of Cliff Road. The site is 1/2 block north of a haelth care clinic loacted on Nichols Road. The site is approximately one mile from grocery and retail shop- ping facilities and it also as the best access to the Burnsville Center a major regional shopping center located seven miles from the site. SUMMARY The eight sites all possess excellent qualities deemed importnt in relation to the location criteria listed. Some sights have qualities that stand out and make them more acceptable to the planiining staff. of the eight sites considered we believe that the following sites should be considered for this project. These sites are the following, #1, #3 , #7 and #8. 0 0 /.. - . --7 . - -",., " cl _‘4 0 . :.., — MEN6OTA -MIS\ .../9 l'- 01.

OTHER BUSINESS MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCILMEMBERS FROM: CITY ADMINISTRATOR HEDGES DATE: JULY 8, 1988 SUBJECT: SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING A special City Council meeting was scheduled for Tuesday, July 12, 1988, at 6:30 p.m. to review the Northwest Airlines Transportation Study, consider the preliminary plat for Kingswood 2nd Addition, consider the Pondview Final Plat and hold a joint meeting with the Advisory Planning Commission for the purpose of reviewing a freeway zoning ordinance and senior housing site selection. NORTHWEST AIRLINES TRANSPORTATION STUDY During the summer of 1987, meetings were held with representatives of Northwest Airlines, Cray Research, Wachovia Bank and Trust and Larry Laukka to discuss future transportation needs in the general area of Trunk Highway 149 and I -494. Beyond the purpose of discussing transportation needs was a concern that the number of trips assigned to NWA, as a result of an indirect source permit issued to that entire quadrant of property, is inadequate for their proposed corporate expansion. In order to approve the expansion plans for Northwest Airlines, a number of transportation improvements will be required in order to secure a new indirect source permit. The transportation plan, as prepared by the aforementioned property owners, is an effort to present the required transportation improvements if further expansion is to occur specifically on Northwest Airlines property. The Director of Public Works and City Administrator have met with representatives of BRW and Northwest Airlines to discuss the report and asked the City's consultant, SEH, to review the document on behalf of the City. The purpose for reviewing this study at the workshop session on Tuesday is twofold: 1) the cost of these improvements will be considerable and Northwest Airlines is asking for financial participation by the City, whether it be tax increment financing or some other source, and 2) Northwest Airlines is anticipating a major expansion program in 1989/1990 and, therefore, adoption of certain transportation improvements, a funding mechanism and other related decisions will be required if an indirect source permit is to be in place for their improvements. The Director of Public Works will be present to comment on the transportation study and the City Administrator will review his findings regarding a proposal to use tax increment financing for the project. Enclosed for City Council review is a copy of the Lone Oak travel demand management plan as prepared by BRW Inc., for Northwest Airlines, Laukka Development, and Wachovia Bank and Trust. PRELIMINARY PLAT /KINGSWOOD 2ND ADDITION /JAMES HORNE At the June 21 City Council meeting, consideration of the preliminary plat of the Kingswood 2nd Addition was continued to the July 5 or July 12 meeting to allow time for the City to meet with its architects and determine a proper location for an access road on Pilot Knob Road to serve the proposed community center. At the time of this dictation, City staff and the architects are meeting and reviewing a location for the access road, however, results of that review will not be available until early next week. Drawings and other pertinent information will be available at the meeting on Tuesday so the City Council can make a decision relative to the preliminary plat for Kingswood 2nd Addition. The Director of Parks and Recreation or the Director of Public Works will be in contact with the developer to review the results of that meeting. If any information is available on Monday for distribution, a special delivery will be made to each City Councilmember. JOINT MEETING WITH ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION FREEWAY ZONING ORDINANCE During the review and update of our Comprehensive Guide Plan, a new zoning classification entitled Freeway Zoning was given consideration but never enactment. The ordinance entitled, "Freeway Development District," is tailored after a classification in the City of Bloomington zoning ordinance. The purpose of the ordinance is to allow a limited mixture of land uses made mutually compatible with controls and high standards; to encourage and accommodate commercial uses in freeway locations convenient to the metropolitan area; and to provide for integrated roadside business areas designed to offer a group of essential services to the motoring public in compact and convenient locations. Another purpose is to protect the freeway from congestion by proper location of high- traffic generators. Due to workload and other issues, the further consideration for the freeway development district classification was placed on hold last summer. There was a brief discussion in early June regarding the freeway development district classification by the City Council and it was determined that this item would be further discussed in a joint session with the Advisory Planning Commission to determine whether the City should proceed further with enactment of this classification which requires an amendment to the zoning ordinance. A copy of the freeway development district zoning classification amendment as presented last summer, is enclosed for your review. In the absence of Dale Runkle, who is vacationing, John Voss, our consulting planner, will be present to review the ordinance. SENIOR HOUSING SITE SELECTION Approximately three (3) years ago, Dakota County was designated a community development entitlement county once it exceeded 200,000 population. Entitlement County simply means that the Department of Housing and Urban Development will commit funding available to the County for housing related purposes. Dakota County made a determination that entitlement funds would be distributed to various groupings of cities throughout the County to determine their best use of funds. The Cities of Apple Valley, Burnsville and Eagan became a grouping as designated by the County. A committee was established made up of City Planners for the three (3) communities and in 1986 it was determined that available resources would be used to hire a consulting firm to prepare a senior housing study master plan for the cities of Apple Valley, Burnsville, and Eagan. The firm of Health Planning and Management Resources Inc., was retained and a report was completed in early 1987 and presented to the respective cities. For a copy of the executive summary of that housing study, refer to the enclosure. It was then determined in late 1987 by the committee for the three cities, in each year for the following three (3) years, a large portion of the entitlement funds would be earmarked to a respective city for the purpose of acquiring a senior citizen housing site. The City of Eagan was chosen as the first City to use the funding for purposes of selecting a site. Therefore, dollars are allocated in 1988 for that purpose. The City Planner was given direction to study site locations that may be available to the City for senior housing. His study has been completed and is available for City Council /Planning Commission review. Enclosed is a copy of that study including the necessary maps. The study analyzes eight (8) sites in Eagan. Through the selection process, the City must prioritize its sites into two or three of the most suitable for senior housing then staff would be authorized to perform an appraisal on the sites with a final determination for acquisition made by the Council. There was some discussion during 1987 about appointing a separate committee to study the site location process and if this separate committee is to be used to examine the site location process, that determination should be made as soon as possible. Again, in the absence of Dale Runkle, Mr. John Voss will be present to review the senior study report at the meeting on Tuesday. FINAL PLATS A. Pondview Addition -- All documentation to process the final plat for the Pondview Addition, with the exception of final signatures on both the development and PUD agreements, have been satisfied. It is anticpated that those agreements will be finalized late Friday or Monday in time for Council action at the Tuesday evening meeting. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve the final plat for Pondview Addition assuming that all signatures have been satisfied. B. Town Centre 100 6th Addition -- All documentation including signatures have been satisfactorily processed for the Town Centre 100 6th Addition final plat and therefore this action is in order for consideration. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve or deny the Town Centre 100 6th Addition final plat. OTHER BUSINESS Grass Fire Fighting Riot Vehicle As a part of the 1988 operating budget, capital outlay was approved in the amount of $30,000 to refurbish pumper unit #6. Due to the time commitment made to Fire Stations 4 and 5, the specifications for equipment and ordering of fire pumper trucks, no action has been taken regarding the capital outlay to refurbish unit 6. Due to the dry weather and high volume of grass fires this city has experienced in recent days /weeks, the Fire Department is in need of a grass fire fighting rig to respond to those calls. Chief Southorn would like the City Council to consider a reallocation of capital by eliminating the refurbishing of unit 6 in the 1988 budget and appropriating those dollars toward the purchase and equipment of a grass fire fighting rig to be acquired immediately. Chief Southorn has previously requested this type of vehicle and due to budgetary constraints, the vehicle has not been included as a capital item. Chief Southorn is confident that if the City Council gave approval, a vehicle could be delivered in approximately two weeks. Currently, the pick -up and chassis desirable for a grass fighting rig is available, the fire department has a tank that could be used for that piece of equipment. Given the urgency for a decision, the City Administrator has asked Fire Chief Southorn to appear at 6:30 and provide a cost estimate and any pertinent information to the Council for a decision at that time. There is no additional business. MEMO TO: ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION MEMBERS FROM: CITY ADMINISTRATOR HEDGES DATE: July 8, 1988 SUBJECT: SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING /TUESDAY, JULY 12 A special City Council meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, July 12, 1988, at 6:30m p.m. Enclosed is an agenda outlining the various action /discussion items. The City Council would like the Advisory Planning Commission to join them at approximately 7:30 p.m. to discuss the freeway zoning ordinance and senior housing site selection identified as IV. For your information I have included the following background information regarding those two items: JOINT MEETING WITH ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION FREEWAY ZONING ORDINANCE During the review and update of our Comprehensive Guide Plan, a new zoning classification entitled Freeway Zoning was given consideration but never enactment.

SUMMARY OF SENIOR HOUSING STUDY FOR THE CITIES OF APPLE VALLEY, BURNSVILLE AND EAGAN March 26, 1987 Overview SUMMARY OF SENIOR HOUSING STUDY FOR THE CITIES OF APPLE VALLEY, BURNSVILLE AND EAGAN completed by: Health Planning & Management Resources, Inc. March, 1987 The study completed by HP &MR focused on current and projected needs for housing for senior citizens. This included the demand for housing specifically designed for seniors as well as the identification of seniors who will need assistance to remain in adequate housing in their senior years. The results of the study indicated that although the senior populations of the three Cities are relatively small in relationship to the total population of each City, there is a definite need to address the issue of adequate housing for seniors, and this need will continue to grow through the remainder of this decade. The following table summarizes the demand projections for housing assistance for lower income seniors and the total demand for housing specifically designed for seniors by the year 1991. The table also identifies projections for demand for senior housing by adult children in the market area who desire to move an elderly parent nearer to them. Study Process The demand projections were a result of a detailed study process that included the following steps: 1.

Key informant interviews with City officials and provi- ders of services for the elderly. 4. Focus groups with senior citizens and with middle adults who have needs for housing near them for parents. 5. Research on a national, state and metropolitan basis related to needs and demands for housing and services for seniors. The results of the study are summarized in a comprehensive Executive Summary and the detailed information and analysis process is presented in an extensive technical document. A brief overview of each part of the analysis follows. Socio- Demographic Analysis The socio- demographic analysis identified that the senior populations of each c i t y w i l l grow in proportion to the total populations in the future. Although income levels of seniors in the area are higher compared to the Metropolitan area, there is a portion of seniors in the market area who have very low or lower incomes as defined by federal guidelines. A significant majority of the seniors in the market area are homeowners. This will have long range implications in that single family homes can become functionally difficult or impossible for seniors as they age and become more frail. Random Sample Surveys The survey designed for adult children was mailed to a random selection of 1,009 households with persons aged 35 to 64 years old. 35.1 percent of households surveyed responded. The results indicated that 33 percent of the survey respondents would move their parents to the area if the parents developed func- tional and /or health problems and 4.5 percent of respondents were currently in the process of attempting to find suitable housing to move their parents closer. In addition, 16 percent of the respondents anticipate that they will provide some financial assistance to their parents in the future. The survey designed for senior citizens was mailed to a random selection of 1,129 households with persons aged 65 years or older. 31.1 percent of the households surveyed responded. The results indicated that 90 percent of the respondents would consider senior apartments if they needed a housing alternative. There was a diversity in income levels of senior households, which closely reflected the income distribution of seniors in the census data. Nearly one fourth of the respondents anticipate that they will move to another area during their retirement years; however, one half of these seniors will maintain a resi- dence in Minnesota. Key Informant Interviews A total of 14 personal interviews were held with persons from a variety of backgrounds. The interviews indicated a unified concern to develop alternatives in housing and services for seniors. The two most frequently cited needs of seniors according to those interviewed were a better public transporation system and subsidized housing for very low and lower income elderly. Focus Group Analysis Nineteen persons participated in the adult children focus groups. All participants had at least one parent over 65 years of age. The most frequently raised concerns included: provision of elerly subsidized housing and /or greater options in rent assistance, moderately priced senior housing with stable rents, and better public programs to meet the social needs of the elderly including senior citizen centers and transportation services. Forty -five senior citizens participated in focus groups. The seniors were uniformly supportive for providing more housing options for seniors in the market area, and felt that there was currently a pressing need. Site Analysis for Housing Designed for Seniors The following areas were identified as optimal areas in each of the three cities for development of seniors housing. Apple Valley (1) Northwest corner of County Road 42 and Pennock Lane (2) Southeast corner of Pilot Knob Road and Essex Avenue Burnsville (1) Southwest corner of Nicollet Avenue and County Road 38 (2) Southeast corner of McAndrews and Burnhaven Drive Eagan (1) Cliff Road and Cedar Avenue area (2) Town Center Drive and Lexington Avenue (north side of O'Leary Lake) Recommendations In addition to the projected need, the following recommendations should be considered. (1) All developments given consideration as "senior housing" should contain special features designed for the elderly, such as emergency call systems, wheel chair accessibility, and supportive services, e.g., meals, housekeeping, etc. (2) Consideration should be given to commitments by developers for rent increases based on predetermined formulas in exchange for favorable financial treatments and assistance by the Cities and /or Housing Authority. This will be particularly important for older persons living on fixed incomes. (3) Preference should be given to integrating lower income seniors into market rate projects to the extent possible. (4) The three cities should consider combining forces in the development of senior services, including housing. A "model project" which would involve a campus development should be considered, and a variety of services for seniors should be located on such a campus. (5) Support programs should be designed for seniors who desire to remain in their single family homes (approximately 75 percent of the senior population)to assist them in remodeling and conversions that will make the home functional for them as they age. (6) Criteria should be developed that would allow the development of accessory apartments on existing single family lots for children who want to bring a parent to live near them. (7) In the development of new housing, emphasis should be placed on barrier free design which can enhance the long term marketability of a project. C A 1.

Statistics show that from 1980 to 1985 the elderly population in Eagan jumped from 442 persons to 647 per - sons,an increase of 47 %. This accounts for 2.2% of the City's population and the 1991 population projections predict an elderly population of 1,572 persons or 4% of Eagan's total population. In 1980,4.7 %of the households in the City were occupied by per- sons 65 or older. Many of these homes were occupied by a single personn and was not owned by the occupant. Of the homes owned by the the elderly,one fourth of them were valued at less than $50,000,well below the average price for an Eagan home. The income level of Eagan's elderly residents resemble the income of the residents of Dakota County overall. Though the elderly in- come is similar to residents of Dakota County,the incomes of Eagan,s elderly fall short in comparison to elderly residents of the nearby communities of Apple Valley and Burnsville. The forecast is that the income levels of Eagan,s elderly will in- crease in the upcoming years. The general makeup currently consists of the elderly person living on a lower income than the average and living alone in a home which has a lower market value than most of the other homes in Eagan. The predictions indicate that the income levels will increase along with the population of the elderly in the City. This facts and predictions indicate a demand for some type of housing designed for the elderly resident of Eagan. The City therefore has taken on the task of searshing for possible sites for the development of a Senior Housing Project. Before picking the possible sites we needed to establish the reasons that seniors seek this type of housing and what the loca- tion ofthe project should offer to it's inhabitants. Our goal is to provide an alternative form of housing to be solely occupied by the senior residents of Eagan. This housing site should possess features that will satisfy the criteria desired by seniors wishing to live there. REASONS FOR MOVING TO A SENIOR HOUSING PROJECT The number one reason that the elderly move out of their homes into some sort of senior housing is because of health problems. Many of these people will move into nursing homes or some sort of health care facility. While this is not the the type of facility being sought after by the City,a senior housing development can provide better access for the elderly by removing the barriers that may impede the movement of the elderly person with health difficulties. Another reason is the elimination of home maintenance. The upkeep of the home can become physically demanding as well as costly and because of these senior housing becomes an alternative. Also,as mentioned earlier the elderly houshold many times consist of only one person and many of these people are female and are tradi- tionally unaccostumed to the time and labor - that it takes to_ properly maintain a home. In 1985,55% of the elderly in Eagan were female. zThis will remain consistant in the future,and be -" cause of this the desire for senior housing is important in the City. A third important reason is security. At the present this would not be an important consideration for Eagan's elderly residents but as the overall population of Eagan increases so will the posssibilty of being affected by a serious crime. The elderly feel safe among groups and in an environment that is more con- trolled than the single family dwelling or a more hetrogeneus apartment complex. To be near their children is an important reason that people will seek senior housing in the City. Eagan is a relatively young com- muity made up of many young families that have moved away from their parents and homrtown and have transplanted themselves in Eagan. As parents age ,retire and sell their homes there becomes a desire to be near their sons and daughters again. So they will seek adequate housing near their cildren. Projections for the City estimate that about 100 elderly person will hayed moved into the City in order to be near their children by 1991. Because of this prediction and the other reasons mentioned there is the demand for a senior housing development within the City. LOCATION CRITERIA Now that we have established,due to the reasons for moving into elderly housing,a need for a senior housing project we must develop some sort of locationcriteria. Seniors would like a site that provides easy access and a desired closeness to facilities that will be used by the residents. When inquired, more than half would be comfortable with having certain services within a six block or 1/2 mile radius. This is considered a comfortable walk- ing distance. Since 95% of the elderly still drive many are not hesitant to drive five miles or more in order to purchase goods and services. But as they age many will lose their ability to get to these destinations by driving themselves. These points must be taken into account when choosing a site. The first priority for seniors in the location process is to be near some type of health care facility. In the City health care facilities are very limited with only two clinics existing atthe present time and one more planned for the future. The nearest hospital is located in Burnsville. The lack of health !care facilities could limit the possible location of this development in Eagan presently. A second important priority is easy access to. ,grocery shopping, The city provides provides many good grocery stores that - are -lo- cated throughout the city. This priority gives the city the op- purtunity for locating in nearly all the sites under considera- tion. Other retail shopping is another important priority. Included in this would be clothing,hardware and more importantly,health needs. Many of the strip centers provide these shopping services and all sites have a strip center located within walking dis- tance.Eagan has access to Burnsville Center and other shopping malls surrounding the Burnsville Center. Opening soon in Eagan will be a Target department store which will in all proability attract other retail businesses to the city. The future looks bright fpor the the accommodation of this priority. Another important consideration in the location process is the access by the elderly to community services. This services would include City Hall, the U.S. Post Office and a community center. The City Hall is located on the corner of Pilot Knob Road and Westcott Road with a branch of the Dakota County Library located adjacent to it. This is near two of the sites mentioned in this study. The post office is located on Lexington Avenue North of Lone Oak Road. AS for accessability to this from the eight sites,it is very limitedand would not have much of an impact on the location of the development.There is at this time no com- munity center located in the city which could be use as a gather- ing place for seniors. Providing access to these goods and services is an important aspect in this decision making process. At the present time the Metropolitan Transit Commission(MTC) offers very limited service to the city. In the future the MTC will expand it's service to the community. All the sites mentioned in this study are located on streets that would likely become MTC bus routes. Also many senior projects provide mini -bus service to aid the mobility of the elderly. Now that we've estblished what type of elderly person is likely to live in this project and the location criteria to be use in determining a site,we will look at several sites throughout the city and determine a site best suited for development of this project. THE SITES _, Before describing the sites individually some comments should be made about the similarities of all the sites that would not af- fect site determination. First of all, the sites are all located on major collector streets which will in the future become routes for the MTC buses,so this is not a individual consideration. Secondly,all of the sites are located within walking distance of a strip center. Each of these strip centers have a grocery con - vienance store with fuel pumps and other shops which vary from center to center. These centers can be utilized by the elderly for their daily needs. Another site consideration not mentioned previously but which is common to all the sites is park and recreation facilities. All of the sites are near some sort of park facility. Some are located near park facilities that are better equipped than others but all are located of facilities which are adequate for use by elderly residents of Eagan. Also, w should consider houses of worship. Eagan presently has 18 ch rh s of all types of faith and denomination scattered throug out the city. Because of the numbers,locatiions and variety of worshipping places this would not prove to be a hin- derance in the location process. a su .s e c k \k.0 THE SITES Finally,it should be noted that all the sites have ample amount of land for the development of this housing project. There seems to be no restrictions in the size of the parcels of land that would have an effect on them being considered for the project. Site #1 is located off Pilot Knob Road 1/2 mile south of 35E in the southeast 1/4 of section 16. The parcel at the present time is located in a planned development and is zoned A (agricultural). The site is ample in size for the use desired. The site has good access to health care facilities with a health clinic located on PIlot Knob Road about 1 mile north of the site. Also, a plan to build a health care clinic within the same planned development of the housing project. This site also provides excellent access to grocery and retail shopping,being within waalking distance of Town Centre shopping center. This meets the shopping needs of the elderly resident and is located within the 1/2 mile distance deemed comfortable. The one quality that is unique to this site and not the others is it's location as it pertains to community services. This site is within walking distance of City Hall and the Dakota County Library. SITE #2 This site,No.2 is located in an area known as Pilot Knob Center and O'Neil's Pond. The site has several options within these two plats. Pilot Knob Center is zoned CSC (community shopping center) and O'Neil's Pond is a planned development and has zoning class- ifications ofCSC,LB (limited business) and GB (general business). A change in zoning will have to be obtained for both plats. The site has good access to the health care clinic located at Pilot Knob Road andMarice Drive and to the future clinic on Pilot Knob Road south of 35E. Site #2 location is excellent in satisfying the grocery and retail shopping concerns. Both plats are located within the same 1/2 section as the Town Centre shopping centerand surrounding shopping areas. This site also has good access to City Hall and the public library but the access is not quite as convenientas site #1 but it is more than adequate. SITE #3 This site is located on property which is zoned A (agricultural) and is located in southeast 1/4 of section 30 on the corner of Cliff Road and Rahn Road. Access to a health care facility is good. A health clinic is lo- cated on Nichols Road 1 block north of Cliff Road. The clinic is approximately 3/4 mile from this site. Accross the street from site #3 is the future home of the Target Department Store and Cub Foods Supermarket which is under con- struction at the present time. This will enable the resident of the housing project to be within walking distance of grocery and retail shopping. SITE #4 and SITE #5 The two sites have been placed together because of their relative closeness to each other and their closeness to the same amenities that are important location factors. Both are located in southeast 1/4 section of 28,site #4 being at the southeast corner and Site #5 being at the southwest corner of this 1/4 sec - tion.Both parcels are zoned single family(R -1). Site #4 is situated_at the corner of Cliff Road. and Pilot Knob Road. Site #5 is located on the corner of Cliff Road and Thomas Lake Road. The two sites are located aproximately three miles from the nearest health care facility and two miles from the nearest grocery and retail shopping center. To reach the health care faclity and shopping areas,the resident must travel by a vehicle to reach these destinations. SITE #6 Site #6 is located in the northeast 1/4 of section 27,south of Diffley Road and west of Lexington Avenue. The property is in a planned development and is presently zoned mutiple(R -4). The site is four miles from the nearest health care facility and five miles from the nearest grocery or retail shopping area. The distances from these areas is bordering on what is acceptable travel by seniors who would likely occupy this housing project. SITE #7 This site is located along Diffley Road,just west of Blackhawk Road in the southwest 1/4 of section 20. The property is located within a planned development and is zoned multiple(R -4). Site #7 is approximately the same distance from both present health care facilities and Eagan's two major grcery and retail shopping areas(Town Centre and Target -Cub Foods). Thisis ap- proximately three miles from Town Centre and two miles from Target -Cub Foods. SITE #8 Site #8 is located in southwest 1/4 of section 30 on Nichols Road 1/2 mile north of Cliff Road. The site is 1/2 block north of a haelth care clinic loacted on Nichols Road. The site is approximately one mile from grocery and retail shop- ping facilities and it also as the best access to the Burnsville Center a major regional shopping center located seven miles from the site. SUMMARY • The eight sites all possess excellent qualities deemed importnt in relation to the location criteria listed. Some sights have qualities that stand out and make them more acceptable to the planiining staff. of the eight sites considered we believe that the following sites should be considered for this project.

These sites are the following, #1, #3, #7 and #8. ADDENDUM TO THE MEMO DATED JULY 8,1988 SUBJECT: SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING /TUESDAY,JULY 12 RE; ADDITION OF SITE #9 SITE #9 Site #9 is located in the southwest 1/4 of section 29 on Rahn Road,1 /2 mile north of Cliff Road. It is located in the same planned development as the Target -Cub Foods project. The site is situated in the northwest corner of the planned development and is zoned R- 4(multiple). The site is 1/2 mile from the health care facility located on Nichols Road,north of Cliff Road.It is within walking distance and can be reached by walking through Rahn Park,which is located directly to the west of the housing site. This site does an excellent job of satisfying the criteria for grocery and retail shopping. The distance to these shopping con- veniences is very minimal,making this site more than adequate in the fulfillment of the shopping needs. The location of this site amply satisfies the location criteria for this study. Access to health care,grocery and retail shopping would make this a desirable site. 1 -- 0 IJ c Q 4-N1L 1 '+W L O E t-L AK P L\ L) C) 1/( C b .%-c.._ C 1..)
