D1 CDRB Packet Page Number 4 of 26 COMMUNITY DESIGN REVIEW BOARD STAFF REPORT Meeting Date October 17, 2023 REPORT TO: Melinda Coleman, City Manager REPORT FROM: Elizabeth Hammond, Planner PRESENTER: Elizabeth Hammond, Planner AGENDA ITEM: Design Review and Parking Waiver Resolution, Bakery Addition, 1745 Beam Avenue East Action Requested:  Motion ☐Discussion ☐ Public Hearing Form of Action: Resolution ☐ Ordinance ☐Contract/Agreement ☐ Proclamation Policy Issue: Duan Corporation, on behalf of Million’s Crab Restaurant, proposes constructing a building addition at 1745 Beam Avenue East. The proposed 3,508-square-foot addition would be the future location of ‘TOUS les JOURS,’ a French bakery. The addition would be attached to the existing restaurant building but operate as a separate second business on the site. To proceed with this project, the applicant requests approval of a design review and a parking waiver. Recommended Action: Motion to approve a resolution for design review and parking waiver approving a building addition to be constructed at 1745 Beam Avenue East, subject to conditions of approval. Fiscal Impact: Is There a Fiscal Impact?  No ☐ Yes, the true or estimated cost is $0 Financing source(s): ☐ Adopted Budget ☐ Budget Modification ☐ New Revenue Source ☐Use of Reserves  Other: N/A Strategic Plan Relevance: ☐Community Inclusiveness ☐Financial & Asset Mgmt ☐Environmental Stewardship ☐Integrated Communication  Operational Effectiveness ☐Targeted Redevelopment The city deemed the applicant’s application complete on August 29, 2023. The initial 60-day review deadline for a decision is October 28, 2023. As stated in Minnesota State Statute 15.99, the city can take an additional 60 days, if necessary, to complete the review and make a decision. The regularly scheduled Community Design Review Board meeting was canceled on September 19, 2023, due to a lack of a quorum of members able to attend the meeting. The city extended the application review an additional 60 days. The review deadline for a decision is December 27, 2023. Background: Duan Corporation, on behalf of Million’s Crab Restaurant, proposes to construct an addition on the east side of the existing restaurant building, adding a French-Asian bakery café to their site called E1 CDRB Packet Page Number 5 of 26 ‘TOUS les JOURS.’ The 3,508-square-foot building addition, while attached to the existing building, would have a separate entrance. The bakery will include a display, service counter, dining room, kitchen, and restrooms. The applicant has submitted design plans for review and requests a parking waiver. The site is in the city’s NE, north-end zoning district. The north-end zoning district standards apply to new development, redevelopment, and building expansions greater than 50 percent of the floor area of an existing building. This project does not exceed 50 percent of the current restaurant’s floor area, so it must meet the general development standards in sections 44-17 to 44-20. These requirements applied to the previous zoning designation for the site and are still applied to projects not located in the NE district. Design Review Site Plan Overall, the site access remains the same, and the building will continue to be accessed primarily off Beam Avenue and secondarily off Southlawn Drive. The proposed addition is situated in the middle of the site and connects to the east wall of the existing restaurant building. The building is required to be 30 feet from a street right-of-way. The site plan shows the addition to be setback 107 feet from the east line and setback 105 from the south line. The parking lot is required to be 15 feet from the street right-of-way and 5 feet from all other property lines. Some parking stalls will be eliminated to make space for the building addition. However, the parking lot is not expanding into the setbacks, and all setback requirements are achieved. Building Elevations The proposed building is one story, between 19-20 feet in height. The primary materials combine two exterior insulation finish systems (EIFS) in light gray and blue colors and fiber cement board siding in a dark gray color. Thin face brick defines the entrance, and prefinished copper metal bands are shown as accent materials, along with red steel doors and a red steel door frame at the main entrance. The proposed materials, textures, and colors are attractive and appear to complement the existing building and overall site design. Landscaping and Screening There are four existing trees on-site that will be preserved. Additional trees are not proposed. There are trees and shrubs on the site that are overgrown and will need to be trimmed and maintained as part of this project. Given the large parking area surrounding the site, staff recommended additional perennial plantings for the site and that the applicant consider additional trees where appropriate— specifically considering areas within the existing rock, grass, and mulched beds along the north, east, and west property lines. The landscape plan identifies (15) perennial shrubs, a combination of chokeberry and spirea shrubs, (44) perennial grasses, a combination of feather reed grass, Schottland hair grass, and prairie dropseed grasses, and (27) perennial flowering plants, including a combination of coneflower echinacea and daylily flowers. Trash Enclosure The existing trash enclosure appears to have been repurposed for storage related to the restaurant. All trash and recycling must be screened inside an enclosure. Currently, the trash dumpsters are E1 CDRB Packet Page Number 6 of 26 located outside of the building and are not screened. The applicant has identified a location for the trash enclosure on the north end of the site, but elevation perspectives were not included. Staff recommends that the applicant submit elevations of each side of the enclosure detailing the materials, colors, and opaqueness. The trash enclosure plan must be submitted to staff for approval before issuing a building permit. Lighting The applicant submitted a photometric site plan as part of its application. The site plan meets the code requirements for permitted light spread and foot-candle levels. However, each luminaire's architectural plan and description, including the manufacturer’s catalog cuts and drawings, were not included. The applicant must submit these documents to staff for approval before issuing a building permit. Parking Waiver Parking spaces must be ten feet wide and 18 feet long, and the drive aisle must be 24 feet wide – the applicant’s site plans meet these dimensional requirements. As previously mentioned, the site is located in the north-end zoning district. Still, given the size of the addition, it does not require the development to meet the new design standards, which notably require significantly less parking. The previous zoning designation required one parking stall for every 50 square feet of space for patron use. In this case, with the addition, the site will have 7,389 square feet of space devoted to patron use. Based on the parking requirement, the site must provide 148 parking stalls. The site currently has 98 parking stalls, and the applicant proposes to remove 29 stalls, resulting in 69 parking stalls for the site, which requires the approval of a parking waiver. The applicant requests a waiver for (79) stalls from the city council. For comparison, the current north-end zoning designation would only require a minimum of 11 parking stalls and a maximum of 53 parking stalls for both the restaurant and bakery. The current north-end standards also limit a site's overall percentage of surface parking – up to 20% of the overall development site. The applicant believes the parking will be sufficient for the existing restaurant and the bakery addition. There has not been an issue with parking on the site, and the building’s location is in an area where the city has large amounts of unused parking. Given the intent of the north-end zoning district to create more walkability and connectivity in this district and limit the amount of surface parking, staff is not concerned with the amount of parking provided on-site and supports the request for the parking waiver. Department Comments Building Official – Randy Johnson The proposed building is required to meet the minimum requirements of the Minnesota State Building Code. Environmental Health Official – Molly Wellens The applicant must apply for plan review and obtain the required licensing for the bakery either E1 CDRB Packet Page Number 7 of 26 through the City of Maplewood or the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. The site must comply with the Minnesota Food Code. Assistant City Engineer – Jon Jarosch The applicant must meet the engineering review requirements dated September 13, 2023. Board and Commission Review Community Design Review Board October 17, 2023: The community design review board will review this project. City Council October 23, 2023, or November 13, 2023: The city council will review this project and make the final decision on the design review and the parking waiver. Citizen Comments Staff surveyed the surrounding property owners within 350 feet of the proposed site. Staff did not receive any comments.

The existing restaurant is a 7,100 square-foot sea food restaurant. The new addition is about 3,500 square feet. It will be a bakery. It will be built on the east side of the existing building where is currently a parking lot. It would provide a contemporary exterior design that complements the existing building on the west side. The addition will include vestibule, bakery display, service counter, dining room, kitchen, and restrooms. The site planning will address traffic flow, parking, landscaping and drainage in addition to compliance with City’s requirements for accommodating a future internal road. The following information describes architectural and engineering concepts for the bakery building and site improvements. Exterior The exterior materials of the existing building are EIFS with face brick at the main entrance and on other facades as the accent. The new building will use face brick at the main entrance like the existing building. EIFS at the new addition will pick up the base color and texture of the existing building. Cementitious architectural panels will be applied to the new exterior walls to enhance the façade. Roof Fully adhered EPDM roofing. The existing building has about 4’ high parapet to screen the roof top units. The new addition will use 4’-high parapet for screening roof top units. Structural Estephan engineering will design the structural system using wood framing. Floor 4” Concrete slab on grade HVAC EEA will provide mechanical design for the HVAC system for the restaurant and exhaust system for the kitchen. Sprinkler The existing building is fully sprinklered. The new addition will be fully sprinklered as well. Plumbing EEA will provide plumbing design for all kitchen equipment and roof drains.

Parking The existing parking lot on the east side will be re- shaped and graded per civil and storm water engineering; new asphalt where needed. Landscape New landscaping with shrubbery and perennials will be added along the east side of the new addition. Signage Face lite channel signages will be provided at south and east side of the new addition. E1, Attachment 5 CDRB Packet Page Number 17 of 26 Parking Waiver Narrative Project: Million’s Crab Addition Address: 1745 Beam Ave, Maplewood MN 55109 Proposed parking stalls: 69 Required parking stalls: 148 We are requesting a parking waiver of 79 stalls to cover the deficit of provided parking stalls for this project. This project involves a building addition to an existing restaurant. This project falls under the old parking requirements since the addition’s square footage is less than 50% of the current building’s square footage. The plan for this section of the city is to move towards a more walkable area. The new rules would require 11(min) to 53(max) parking spaces based on business square footage. Granting a waiver to this project would help move towards the city’s vision for the north end area.
