BACKGROUND February 26, 1996: The city council approved design plans, conditional use permit, and a wetland setback variance for the construction of the Lexus automobile dealership. April 8, 1996: The city council reconsidered. the conditional use permit and design plans for Lexus. This was required in order to allow construction after a signed developer's agreement and letter of credit were supplied to the city by the developer for the extension of a water main to the site. July 22, 1996: The city council considered a sign variance request to allow Lexus a second freestanding sign. The council denied the sign variance. September 24, 1996: The community design review board waived the requirement to screen rooftop equipment at Lexus. July 28, 1997: The city council reviewed Lexus' conditional use permit and recommended review in one year. October 12,1998: The city council reviewed Lexus' conditional use permit and recommended review in one year. September 10, 2001: City staff approved a minor construction project that included a parking lot expansion of 59 new parking stalls which were constructed on the north side of the property. DISCUSSION During construction of the dealership, Lexus was required to install a sump pump catch basin in the parking lot. The sump pump catch basin is designed to help clean and filter water runoff from the parking lot prior to running into the adjacent wetland. A condition of Lexus' conditional use permit is that the sump pump catch basin be inspected and cleaned annually. Lexus hired Hydro - Vac, Inc., who inspected and cleaned the sump pump catch basin on December 12, 2001. .action by Council In addition to the above - mentioned requirement, staff found two outstanding items which still need addressing: 1) dumpster. enclosure to be constructed on the east side of the building; and 2) silt fence to be removed. After several discussions with the general manager of Lexus, Robert Katz, the following arrangements were made to address these items: 1) Landmark Fence has been hired by Lexus to draft a dumpster enclosure plan. The plan will include a 6 -foot high or higher cedar fence with gate to be installed in the spring of 2002; and 2) Lexus employees will remove the silt fence from the property once all new sod and landscaping, which were required for the parking lot expansion, have been established (summer 2002). RECOMMENDATION Review the conditional use permit for the Lexus automobile dealership at 3000 Maplewood Drive again in one year. p:sec3 \lexus 01 -02 -02 Attachments 1. Location Map 2.

Refer to the maps on pages 2 through 5. BACKGROUND On April 27, 1992, the city council approved a revision to the conditional use permit for Mounds Park Academy to build two additions and expand their recreation areas. On November 14, 1994, the city council reviewed the conditional use permit for the academy. The council required a review again either six months after Independent School District 622 completes their proposed access road to Beebe Road or in three years, whichever is first. On June 12, 1995, the city council approved a CUP and the design review for Independent School District 622. This was so the school district could expand their parking lot and reroute their driveway to Beebe Road. On January 8, 2001, the city council approved more revisions to the CUP for Mounds Park Academy. This approval was for the school to build an addition between their existing building and the former school district building at 1801 Beebe Road. (See the maps on pages 4 and 5.) This approval was subject to seven conditions. (See the council minutes starting on page 6.) DISCUSSION The school is proceeding with the construction of the approved addition. The contractor has not finished all the landscaping and outside site work. They expect to finish the required site work in the spring.

The CUP was granted to VoiceStream Wireless to replace an existing monopole at 1300 Gervais Street. I am aware the CUP is due to expire in January 2001, one year after issuance. I am contacting you with a request to the City Council for a one -year extension of the CUP. When VoiceStream Wireless went before the City Council over a year ago it was our intent to construct the monopole in 2001. Due to unforeseen budget restrictions VoiceStream Wireless had to suspend replacement of this tower until 2002. It is our intention to construct the new monopole in the second quarter of 2002. We are making arrangements with Sprint PCS to be involved in the construction of said tower. Having Sprint directly involved will benefit both companies to ensure a quicker build of the replacement site. Thank you for the consideration of our request to extend the conditional use permit. If you have any questions or comments regarding this matter, please contact me at 952 -833- 4078.

To make the renewal and issue process less complicated and to encourage the licensing of pets, I would like to propose a couple of changes in our current procedures. The permit for 2002 will be good only until December 31, 2002 and the fee for the license will be prorated. All subsequent permits will be on a calendar year basis. Although the City provides a reduced permit fee for spayed or neutered animals, the 1996 User Fee Study did not include a separate fee and has not been a part of annual increases submitted to council for approval. Recommendation The reduction for a pet license if the animal is spayed or neutered will be $3.00 annually. This fee will be part of the annual City Clerk Increase in Fee Charges that is submitted to the city council for approval. The fee for 2002 license, which will be good for ten months and expire on December 31, 2002 will be $15.00. If the animal is spayed or neutered the fee will be $12.50. Agend # �1 I MEMORANDUM TO: City Manager FROM: Ken Roberts, Associate Planner SUBJECT: Carefree Cottages Villas (Phase IV) LOCATION: Behind 1733 Gervais Avenue APPLICANT: - Bruce Mogren DATE:. January 7, 2002 INTRODUCTION . Project Description Action by Council Date Endorsed Modified Rejected Bruce Mogren, representing the Carefree Cottages Villas, is proposing to build 12 units of senior housing and two single dwellings. He is proposing to build this project on the north side of Gervais Avenue between the Carefree Cottages of Maplewood and the property at 1733 Gervais Avenue. (See the Location map on page 14 and the property line /zoning map on page 17.) The development would have two areas. As shown on the proposed site plan (page 20), there would be two one -story buildings with a total of 12 townhome units north of Gervais Avenue, next to the driveway for the existing Carefree Cottages. The other part of the project would be along Gervais Avenue and would include three single dwellings (the existing house at 1733 Gervais and two new houses on either side of the existing house). The 15 total units would be on a 1.9 -acre site for an average of 7.9 units per acre. The site would have 20 open parking spaces — one in front of each garage stall and eight additional stalls scattered through out the site. The buildings would have exteriors of vinyl horizontal -lap siding, gray asphalt shingles and vinyl trim and fascia boards. Requests To build the development, Mr. Mogren is requesting that the city approve the following: 1. A change in the city's land use plan. This change would be from R -1 (single dwellings) to R -3H (residential high density) for the 12 townhouse units. (See the existing and proposed land use plan maps on pages 15 and 16.) 2. A conditional use permit (CUP) for a planned unit development (PUD) for a 15 -unit housing development. This PUD would have 12 units of rental senior housing and three single dwellings. The applicant is requesting the CUP because the proposed development has a mix of housing types, lot sizes and densities. In addition, having a PUD gives the city and developer a chance to be more flexible with site design and development details than the standard zoning requirements would normally allow. For example, the new proposed lots on Gervais Avenue would be 9,375 and 9,384 square feet in area. (See the property line /zoning map on page 17, the proposed lot split map on page 19 and the proposed site plan on page 20.) 3. A lot division to divide the property into four lots -three Tots for the single dwellings along Gervais Avenue and one lot for the 12 town house units. (See the map on page 19.) 4. The design plans for the site, landscaping and buildings, including having no curbing for part of one of the driveways (for drainage purposes). 1 DISCUSSION Zoning, Land Use and Comprehensive Plans The city has shown this site planned for low- density residential development (R -1) on the land use map (see the map on page 15). To have town houses, the applicant is requesting that the city change this designation to high - density residential (R- 3(H)). Maplewood intends areas designated as R -3(H) as areas for town houses or apartments of up to 12 units per gross acre. Maplewood has zoned this property R -1 (single dwellings). This zoning designation only allows single dwellings and their accessory uses. Because of this zoning designation, the developer has also applied for a conditional use permit for a planned unit development for this proposal. The proposed development plan is consistent with the density allowed by the proposed comprehensive plan designation. Specifically, the 15 new units on the 1.9 -acre site means there would be 7.9 units per gross acre. This proposal would meet the density standards outlined in the Maplewood Comprehensive Plan for high - density residential areas. In addition, the proposed development density would be consistent with the density standards recommended by the Metropolitan Council for housing in first -ring suburbs. This is a good site for a mix of housing styles and densities. It is next to an existing senior housing development, on a collector street (Gervais Avenue) and near an arterial street (White Bear Avenue) and a church. Conditional Use Permit The applicant is requesting the CUP for the PUD because the proposed development has a mix of rental town houses and three single dwellings. The current R -1 zoning only allows single dwellings, unless the city approves a PUD for a mix of housing for the site. Having the PUD also gives the city and developer a chance to be more flexible with site design and development details (such as setbacks and lot size) than the standard zoning requirements would allow. The developer intends to rent the town houses to seniors. As proposed, the 15 dwelling units would be on about 1.9 acres for an overall project density of 7.9 units per acre. Compatibility Staff does not find a problem with compatibility in terms of land use. The proposed senior town houses would be next to an existing senior housing development. In addition, townhomes are often built next to single dwellings. A recent example is with the New Century Addition in south Maplewood. The developer, Robert Engstrom, is presently developing this neighborhood with a mix of single dwellings and townhomes. There are many other examples in Maplewood where this is the case as well. Property Values The Ramsey County Assessors Office has told us that multiple dwellings adjacent to single dwellings are not a cause for a negative effect on property values. If properly maintained and kept up, this development should not be detrimental to the neighborhood. The required annual review of the conditional use permit is a built -in safeguard to ensure that the city council will regularly review this development. As stated above, it is common that residential developers mix single dwellings and townhomes in their projects. 2 Traffic Traffic- generation data from the Institute of Traffic Engineers indicates that residential units like townhomes generate an average of five vehicle trips per day. In either case, with the proposed 12 town house units and three single dwellings, there would not be a large number of cars added to this area. Public Utilities There are sanitary sewer, storm sewer and water in Gervais Avenue and in the existing Carefree Cottages to serve the proposed development. Drainage Concerns The grading plan (on page 21) shows the developer using a rain water garden and the existing storm sewer in Gervais Avenue to control the storm water. The project plans also show part of one driveway with no gutter to allow storm water to run -off the driveway to the rainwater garden and drainage swale. The city engineer support's this design within the plan. The developer's engineer has provided the city engineer with information and calculations showing that this project will not increase the amount of storm water running off of the site. On December 11, 2001, the community design review board moved to require the developer to install concrete curb and gutter along the edges of the primary driveway. Staff had recommended waiving the curbing where the city engineer felt that not having the curb would help facilitate the use of the rainwater gardens for storm water treatment. The city council may either hold with the CDRB's recommendation to have curb and gutter throughout the site or accept the city engineer's recommendation that curbing is not necessary on the south side of the driveway. Staff's recommendation is to allow the city engineer to decide whether the curbing is necessary next to the rainwater gardens as it would impede runoff to them. Tree Removal /Replacement As proposed, the applicant's contractor would grade most of the property to prepare the site for construction. The proposed plans show the developer removing 13 large trees (maple, oak and basswood) and transplanting 21 coniferous trees within the site. (See the plans on pages 20 and 21.) With careful grading and construction, the developer will be able to save several of the large trees on the site -- primarily along the east side of the site and along Gervais Avenue. The applicant is proposing to plant at least five replacement trees (including ash and maple) with his plans. In addition, city staff is recommending that the developer plant additional trees for screening on the site. Sidewalk I had Chuck Ahl, the Maplewood Public Works Director, review the proposed development plans. Mr. AN noted that the developer is not proposing to build any trails or sidewalks with the development. He recommends that the developer install a six - foot -wide concrete sidewalk along the north side of Gervais Avenue between the west end of the existing sidewalk and the west property line of the site. This sidewalk would allow people to walk between the homes on Flandrau Street and the new houses on Gervais Avenue to the commercial area to the east without having to go on the street. The city engineer also told me that he would allow some flexibility with the design and location of the new sidewalk to allow the developer to work around the existing trees and grades in the location of the sidewalk. The applicant has told staff that he is opposed to building this sidewalk. 3 Lot Division and Access The proposed plans show access to the northerly town houses from the existing driveway for the Carefree Cottages. The applicant told me that he would be arranging for cross easements and access agreements for his development to use this driveway. City staff should review these agreements before the project receives final approval from the city. The town houses on the south side of the development will have access from a new driveway that would connect to Gervais Avenue. As proposed, the 12 town houses will be on one parcel and the three single dwellings will each be on their own parcel. (See the proposed lot split map on page 19.) Since the proposal includes creating four parcels, the city needs to approve a lot division so the developer may divide the property as proposed. Building Design, Site Layout and Landscaping Design Review Discussion The proposed buildings would be attractive and would fit in with the design of the existing Carefree Cottages in the area. They would have an exterior of horizontal vinyl siding (with a wood grain finish), vinyl trim and the roofs would have pewter gray asphalt shingles. (See the proposed elevations on pages 23 and 25 and the enclosed project drawings.) These buildings would be very similar, if not identical to, the existing Carefree Cottages to the north and east of the site. Staff does not have any major concerns about the proposed plans since this development will be on a private driveway and would be somewhat isolated. In fact, only the tenants of the town houses and the residents in the existing town house building would be able to see the fronts of the new buildings. Parking It should be noted that the city will not allow parking along the new driveway in the site since it will be 24 feet wide. There is little room on the site to add off - street parking within this development without squeezing two.spaces between the driveways of the four -unit and eight -unit buildings and possibly west of the four -unit building. The applicant's revised plan (dated January 5, 2002 on page 20) does show eight off - street parking spaces scattered throughout four locations on the site. Landscaping The developer should further develop the landscaping plan to increase the screening between the proposed town houses and the existing and proposedsingle dwellings. There are at least three areas that will need additional plantings or another type of screening method. Specifically, these additional trees should include Colorado Blue Spruce, eastern red cedar and eastern arborvitae. These additional trees should be located as follows: (1) Along the north property line of 1725 Gervais Avenue. (2) Along the south side of the new driveway (along the south property line of Parcel A). (3) Along the west side of the new driveway (along the east property line of Parcel B). The trees in these locations shall be at least six feet tall, in staggered rows (if possible) and are to provide screening that is at least 80 percent opaque. Watershed District It is important to remember that the applicant or the contractor must get a permit from the watershed district before starting grading or construction. That is, the watershed district will have to be satisfied that the developer's plans will meet all watershed district standards. The applicant must contact Karl Hammers of the watershed district at (651) 704 -2089 to inquire about their plan review and permitting requirements. Fire Marshal's Comments Butch Gery p ais the Maplewood Fire Marshal, stated that the fire department must have clear passage to the buildings. The final site plan should be reviewed by Mr. Gervais to ensure fire safety needs are q met. He also noted that the code requires that the buildings have a sprinkler system for fire protection. Building Code Concerns the Maplewood Building Official, noted that the building code requires that the town David Fisher, p houses have at least a three -foot setback from the north and south property lines and at least a five - foot setback from property m the side lines. The applicant may need to change the site plan to meet these setback requirements. COMMISSION ACTIONS On December 11, 2001, the CDRB recommended that the city council approve the proposed design plans for the Carefree Villas. 01 the planning commission, on a 2 - On December 17, 20 p 9 6 vote, recommended that the city council deny the proposed ed land use Ian change, PUD and lot division for the proposed Carefree Villas. RECOMMENDATIONS e resolution on page 29. It changes the land use plan from R -1 (single dwelling A. Approve the p g residential) to RH (residential high density) for the 12 town hou se units of the Carefree Villas of Maplewood. The city bases this change on the following findings. 1. This site is proper for and consistent with the city's policies for high- density residential use. This includes b ein g 9 9 next to existing high-density senior housing units, a collector street and near two churches, shopping and Four Seasons Park. 2. This development will minimize any adverse effects on surrounding properties because: a. Studies have shown there will be no adverse effect on property values. b. There would be no traffic from this development on existing residential streets. B. Approve the resolution starting page 30. This resolution approves a conditional use permit for p 9 a planned unit development for the Carefree Villas, based on the findings required by code. (Refer to the resolution for the specific findings.) Approval is subject to the following conditions: n shall follow the plans dated November 26, 2001 except where the city requires 1. All construction p changes. Such changes shall include revising the grading and site plans to show the additional 5 parking spaces and the required sidewalk along Gervais Avenue. The city council may approve major changes to the plans. The director of community development may approve minor changes. 2. The proposed construction must be substantially started within one year of council approval or, the permit shall end. The council may extend this deadline for one year. 3. The owner shall not convert the town houses in this development to non - seniors housing without the revision of the planned unit development. For this permit, the city defines senior housing as a residence occupied by persons that are 55 years of age or older. 4. There shall be no outdoor storage of recreational vehicles, boats or trailers at or around the townhouses. 5. Residents shall not park trailers and vehicles that they do not need for day -to -day transportation on the town house site. 6. If the city council decides there is not enough on -site parking after the town houses are occupied, the city may require additional parking. 7. The developer or builder will pay the city Park Access Charges (PAC fees) for each housing unit at the time of the building permit for each housing unit. 8. The three single dwellings are exempt from reviews for conditional use permit revisions for any expansions, additions or changes provided that such changes would meet all applicable zoning and building standards and requirements. 9. The city council shall review this permit in one year. C. Approve the proposed lot split shown on page 19. This plan creates four parcels for the Carefree Villas development on Gervais Avenue. This lot division shall be subject to the developer or applicant completing the following conditions before the city approves the lot division deeds: 1.

Add drainage and utility easements as required by the city engineer. 5. Secure and provide all required easements for the development. These shall include any off- , site drainage and utility easements, subject to the city engineer's requirements. 6. Record the following with the lot division deeds: a. All homeowners association documents. b. An access agreement for the proposed town houses that ensures the tenants may use the existing driveway(s) for ingress and egress. The applicant shall submit the language for these dedications and restrictions to the city for approval before recording to assure there will be one responsible party for the maintenance of the common areas, private utilities, driveways and structures. 7. The city will not issue building permits until the deeds for the town house site and the three single dwelling lots are recorded and the developer has met the city conditions. D. Approve the plans (site and landscaping) dated January 5, 2002 and the building elevations (dated November 26, 2001) for the Carefree Villas of Maplewood.

For 1. This would be just fine for us. (Owner — 1730 Gervais Avenue) 2. We need lots more senior housing in Maplewood! We need to take better care of our senior population and give them opportunities in housing. (Anonymous) 3. I am very pleased with the proposal to add units to the Carefree Villas. I believe they will be a nice addition to the neighborhood. (Fenton — 1725 Gervais Avenue) REFERENCE Site Description The site has a single - family home. Surrounding Land Uses North: Existing Carefree Cottages of Maplewood. East: Existing Carefree Cottages of Maplewood. South: Gervais Avenue. South of Gervais Avenue are light industrial land uses such as Cook's Auto Repair, an office- warehouse complex and Schwan's Foods warehouse. West: The Seasons Park Addition with single- family homes along Flandrau Street, a Lutheran church and Four Seasons Park. Reasons for the Requests This proposal needs a land use plan change because: 1. State law does not allow a city to adopt any regulation that conflicts with its comprehensive plan. 2. One of the findings required by code for a CUP is that the use is in conformity with the city's comprehensive plan. The land use plan shows this site for R -1 (single dwelling) uses, which do not include multiple - family housing.. The developer is applying for a CUP because the zoning on this site is R -1 (single dwellings). The R -1 zone only allows single dwellings and their accessory uses. The developer chose to apply for a CUP, rather than a zone change, to have the town houses on the site. A CUP for a PUD is only for a specific use and site plan. A rezoning to R -3 (multiple dwelling residential) would allow a variety of multiple - dwelling uses and plans. 11 PLANNING Existing Land Use Plan designation: R -1 (single dwellings) Proposed Land Use Plan designations: R3.-!H (high density residential) and R -1 Zoning: R -1 CRITERIA APPROVAL Land Use Plan Change There are no specific criteria for a land use plan change. Any land use plan change should be consistent with the goals and policies in the city's comprehensive plan. Findings for CUP Approval Section 36 -442 states that the city council must base approval of CUPs on the nine findings stipulated in the resolution on pages 30 & 31. Design Approval Section 25 -70 of the city code requires that the CDRB make the following findings to approve plans: 1 . That the design and location of the proposed development and its relationship to neighboring, existing or proposed developments and traffic is such that it will not impair the desirability of investment or occupation in the neighborhood; that it will not unreasonably interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring, existing or proposed developments; and that it will not create- traffic hazards or congestion. 2. That the design and location of the proposed development is in keeping with the character of the surrounding neighborhood and is not detrimental to the harmonious, orderly and attractive development contemplated by this article and the city's comprehensive municipal plan. 3. That the design and location of the proposed development would provide a desirable environment for its occupants, as well as for its neighbors, and that it is aesthetically of good composition, materials, textures and colors. HOUSING POLICIES The land use plan has eleven general land use goals. Of these, three apply to this proposal. They are: minimize land planned for streets, minimize conflicts between land uses and provide many housing types. The land use plan also has several general development and residential development policies that relate to this project. They are: - Transitions between distinctly differing types of land uses should not create a negative economic, social or physical impact on adjoining developments. - Whenever possible, changes in types of land uses should occur so that similar uses front on the same street or at borders of areas separated by major man -made or natural barriers. 12 Include a variety of housing types for all types of residents, regardless of age, ethnic, racial, cultural or socioeconomic background. A diversity of housing types should include apartments, town houses, manufactured homes, single- family housing, public- assisted housing and low- to moderate - income housing, and rental and owner - occupied housing. Protect neighborhoods from encroachment or intrusion of incompatible land uses by adequate buffering and separation. The housing plan also has policies about housing diversity and quality that the city should consider with this development. They are: Promote a variety of housing types, costs and ownership options throughout the city. These are to meet the life -cycle needs of all income levels, those with special needs and nontraditional households. The city will continue to provide dispersed locations for a diversity of housing styles, types and price ranges through its land use plan. The city's long -term stability of its tax base depends upon its ability to attract and keep residents of all ages. - To do so, the city must insure that a diverse mix of housing styles is available in each stage of the life cycle of housing needs. Application Date We received the revised plans from the applicant on November 26, 2001. State law requires that the city take action within 60 days of receiving complete applications for a proposal. As such, the city must take action on this request by January 25, 2002. kr /c: Sec 10 /villas. mem Attachments 1. Location Map 2. Existing Land Use Plan Map 3. Proposed Land Use Plan 4.

These townhomes would be restricted to renters that are 55 and older. The south half of the property would be developed into three single- family lots (one of the lots has an existing home). I feel that this proposed development would blend very well with our current townhomes, which border the property on the east and north. I believe that townhomes would also be a better fit for the single family neighbors to the west. Townhomes would require a side setback of 50 feet from the neighboring single - family homes, as compared to the single- family minimum setback of 10 feet. The townhome buffer would be fully landscaped to provide more privacy. I have consulted with Development Engineering, the engineering company for this proposed project and they have concluded that this project would have a minimal impact on the existing utilities, specifically sewer and water. Changing the density from Rl to multifamily will increase the number of living units from seven to fifteen. Twelve of the .units are restricted to tenants 55 years of age and older. Senior tenants -have fewer persons per household and typically use less water and sewer than a family would. 'Senior households, on average, are rated at two persons ,per household while families are rated at 2.75 per household. Mathematically we are requesting a net increase of housing for thirteen additional senior people over the current zoning. Development Engineering concluded that this proposed development's impact on utilities should not be significant. 26 Attachment 14 REASONS WHY TIC CITY SHOULD APPROVE THIS REQUEST 1.) This property is currently zoned R1. The development that is being submitted does not conform to the current comprehensive plan or zoning. Up until now this property has been virtually "Land Locked" because of its location. The proposal calls for rental housing restricted to "senior citizens ", very similar in nature to the existing Carefree Cottages which currently borders this property on two sides. 2.) This proposed development would not change the existing or planned character of the surrounding area. The property is currently zoned "R -1" Residential. I am proposing a P.U.D. because I feel that multi - family would be a good fit with the surrounding properties. This property does have a unique nature because it is bordered on the -west by single family homes and on the north and east by multi - family townhomes. If the property were to be developed as single family residences, (the current proposed zoning), and the side setback from the single - family neighbors to the west would be only ten feet from their backyards. The single - family lots created would also be surrounded on two sides by senior citizen townhomes. If the city allows the proposed P.U.D. plan, the side set back from the single - family homes to the west would be fifty feet. This fifty feet consists of mature trees and the intention of this developer is to maintain as much as possible this fifty foot "buffer area" in it's current natural state. 3.) It is my opinion that the proposed P.U.D. would, at a minimum, maintain the property value of the adjacent single family homes. It stands to reason that this P.U.D. provides an extra fifty feet of green space adjacent to the neighbor's backyards as opposed to a single- family residence, which can be as close as ten feet away from these backyards. Plus, it is very unlikely that the senior rental units would create noise or disturbances in the neighborhood. 27 4.) Not applicable 5.) The development would only add twelve additional "senior citizen" living units to join the two hundred forty eight units, which already exist on this site. The traffic created by these additional units would have very little or no impact on the neighborhood. 6.) & 7.) There are currently adequate public facilities and there should be minimal impact with these additional units. 8.) & 9.) See the answer to #2 28 Attachment 15 LAND USE PLAN CHANGE RESOLUTION WHEREAS, Bruce Mogren applied for a change to the city's land use plan from R -1 (single dwellings) to R -3H (residential high density). WHEREAS, this change applies to the undeveloped property located on the north side of Gervais Avenue between the Carefree Cottages of Maplewood (Phases I and II) and the house at 1733 Gervais Avenue. WHEREAS, the history of this change is as follows: 1 . On December 17, 2001, the planning commission held a public hearing. The city staff published a hearing notice in the Maplewood Review and sent notices to the surrounding property owners. The planning commission gave everyone at the hearing a chance to speak and present written statements. The planning commission recommended that the city council deny the plan amendment. 2. On January 14, 2002, the city council discussed the land use plan changes. They considered reports and recommendations from the planning commission and city staff. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the city council approve the above - described changes for the following reasons: 1 . This site is proper for and consistent with the city's policies for high- density residential use. This includes being next to existing high- density senior housing units, a collector street and is near two churches, shopping and Four Seasons Park. 2. 1 This development will minimize any adverse effects on surrounding properties because: a. Studies have shown there will be no adverse effect on property values. b. There would be no traffic from this development on existing residential streets. The Maplewood City Council adopted this resolution on 2002. 29 Attachment 16 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT RESOLUTION WHEREAS, Bruce Mogren applied for a conditional use permit (CUP) for the Carefree Villas (Phase IV) planned unit development (PUD). WHEREAS, this permit applies to the undeveloped property on the north side of Gervais Avenue between the existing Carefree Cottages of Maplewood (Phases I and II) and the house at 1733 Gervais Avenue. The legal description is: The North 125 feet of the South 300 feet of the West 100 feet of Lot 2, E.G. Rogers' Garden Lots, and also; the East 10 feet of the West 100 feet of the South 175 feet of Lot 2, E.G. Rogers' Garden Lots, all in Section 10, Township 29, Range 22, Ramsey County, Minnesota. And Except the West 100 feet, the South 300 feet of Lot 2, E.G. Rogers' Garden Lots in Section 10, Township 29, Range 22, Ramsey County, Minnesota. WHEREAS, the history of this conditional use permit is as follows: 1 . On December 17, 2001 the planning commission recommended that the city council deny this permit. 2. On January 14, 2002, the city council held a public hearing. The city staff published a notice in the paper and sent notices to the surrounding property owners. The council gave everyone at the hearing a chance to speak and present written statements. The council also considered reports and recommendations of the city staff and planning commission. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the city council approve the above - described conditional use permit, because: 1 . The use would be located, designed, maintained, constructed and operated to be in conformity with the city's comprehensive plan and code of ordinances. 2. The use would not change the existing or planned character of the surrounding area. 3. The use would not depreciate property values. 4. The use would not involve any activity, process, materials, equipment or methods of operation that would be dangerous, hazardous, detrimental, disturbing or cause a nuisance to any person or. property, because of excessive noise, glare, smoke, dust, odor, fumes, water or air pollution, drainage, water run -off, vibration, general unsightliness, electrical interference or other nuisances. 5. The use would generate only minimal vehicular traffic on local streets and would not create traffic congestion or unsafe access on existing or proposed streets. 6. The use would be served by adequate public facilities and services, including streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, water and sewer systems, schools and parks. 7. The use would not create excessive additional costs for public facilities or services. 8. The use would maximize the preservation of and incorporate the site's natural and scenic features into the development design. 30 9. The use would cause minimal adverse environmental effects. Approval is subject to the following conditions: 1 . All construction shall follow the plans dated November 26, 2001, except where the city requires changes. Such changes shall include revising the grading and site plans to show the additional parking spaces and the required sidewalk along Gervais Avenue. The city council may approve major changes to the plans. The director of community development may approve minor changes. 2. The proposed construction must be substantially started within one year of council approval or the permit shall end. The council may extend this deadline for one year. 3. The owner shall not convert the town houses in this development to non- seniors housing without the revision of the planned unit development. For this permit, the city defines seniors housing as a residence occupied by persons that are 55 years of age or older. 4. There shall be no outdoor storage of recreational vehicles, boats or trailers at or around the townhouses. 5. Residents shall not park trailers and vehicles that they do not need for day -to -day transportation on the town house site. 6. If the city council decides there is not enough on -site parking after the town houses are occupied, the city may require additional parking. 7. The developer or builder wily pay the city Park Access Charges (PAC fees) for each housing unit at the time of the building permit for each housing unit. 8.' The three single dwellings are exempt from reviews for conditional use permit revisions for any expansions, additions or changes provided that such changes would meet all applicable zoning and building standards and requirements. 9. The city council shall review this permit in one year. The Maplewood City Council approved this resolution on 2002. 31 MINUTES OF THE MAPLEWOOD COMMUNITY DESIGN REVIEW BOARD 1830 COUNTY ROAD B EAST, MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA DECEMBER 11, 2001 a. Carefree Cottages Villas (Phase IV) Behind 1733 Gervais Avenue Mr. Ekstrand said that Bruce Mogren, representing the Carefree Cottages Villas, is proposing to build 12 units of senior housing and 2 single dwellings. He is proposing to build this J ro'ect on the north side of Gervais Avenue between the Carefree Cottages of p Maplewood and the property at 1733 Gervais Avenue. The development would have two areas. As shown on the proposed site plan (page 20 of the staff report), there would be two one -story buildings with a total of 12 town home units north of Gervais Avenue, next to the driveway for the existing Carefree Cottages. The other part of the project would be along Gervais Avenue and would include 3 single dwellings (the existing house at 1733 Gervais and 2 new houses on either side of the existing house). The 15 total units would be on a 1.9 -acre site for an average of 7.9 units per acre. The site would have 12 open parking spaces — one in front of each garage stall. (The proposed plan does not show any guest parking spaces). The buildings would have p exteriors of vinyl horizontal -lap siding, gray asphalt shingles and vinyl trim and fascia boards. To build the development, Mr. Mogren is requesting that the city approve the following: 1. A change in the city's land use plan. This change would - be from R -1 (single dwellings) to R -3H (residential high density) for the 12 town house units: 2. A conditional use permit (CUP) for a planned unit development (PUD) for a 15 -unit housing development. This PUD would have 12 units of rental senior housing and three single dwellings. The applicant is requesting the CUP because the proposed development has a mix of housing types, lot sizes and densities. In addition, havin g g Y a PUD gives the city and developer a chance to be more flexible with site design and development details than the standard zoning requirements would normally allow. For example, the new proposed lots on Gervais Avenue would be 9,375 and 9,384 square feet in area. (See the property line /zoning map on page 17, the proposed lot split map on page 19 and the proposed site plan on page 20.) 3. A lot division to divide the property into four lots - 3 lots for the single dwellings along Gervais Avenue and one lot for the 12 townhouse units. (See the map on page 19 of the staff report.) 4. The design plans for the site, landscaping and buildings. Mr. Ekstrand said the city is recommending that the developer extend the sidewalk that is in place along the north side of Gervais Avenue to the westerly boundary. Mr. Ekstrand said staff is concerned about the parking spaces. The applicant is meeting code with providing one outside space and one garage space. There are not any other visitor parking spaces on this site. The city tries to. make sure parking for guests is provided. There is not any room for curbside parking; therefore staff wants the review board to consider the need for some additional visitor parking spaces. Mr. Ekstrand said staff is recommending that the landscaping plan be more developed to provide additional screening behind the home at 1725 Gervais Avenue. Additional landscaping is also being recommended along the south of the driveway to help provide screening for the existing and future homes on Gervais Avenue. Staff is recommending the approval of recommendation D on page 7 of the staff report. Recommendations A -C will be acted on by the Planning Commission. Mr. Ekstrand added item 2. e. on page 9 require: e. A photometric plan as required by city code. Mr. Ekstrand said he spoke with the building official, David Fisher, and he said the setbacks for the proposed garages should have a three -foot setback from the north lot line. Currently they are directly abutting the lot line. Also on the east side the units abut the easterly bounds of the property. The building code would require a five -foot setback there. This will some require shifting within the site to accommodate these setbacks. q g Chairperson Ledvina asked if staff recommends an additional condition to state that? Mr. Ekstrand said yes. Chairperson Ledvina asked if that could perhaps be put under number 6. on page 10? Mr. Ekstrand said yes. Board member Olson asked if the building on the west could easily be shifted south.to accommodate the three - foot - setback from the driveway side. The east -west shift looks possible to accommodate, but the north -south shift looks tight. Mr. Ekstrand said the only leeway he can find is in the depth in the three single - family lots. Board member Olson said the lots would have to be adjusted in size. Mr. Ekstrand said if they took three feet off the depth of those lots they could make it fit. Board member Olson asked that would cause a problem. Mr. Ekstrand said no, two of the undeveloped lots are just under the 10,000 square foot minimum. Being a planned unit development it would be possible to do that. They have the right within the ordinance to make those adjustments without requiring it a variance. Board member Olson said better to make those changes earlier than later. Chairperson Ledvina asked staff if they could just require "modifications acceptable to staff." Mr. Ekstrand said that would be fine. Chairperson Ledvina said more input can be given from the applicant on this issue. Board member Olson asked staff about the lighting ordinance. Staff has. asked for a gp li htin Ian, how do the existing cottage lighting plans fit in with the current lighting g ordinance. Do you for -see any problems? Mr. Ekstrand said when Mr._ p Mogren has the chance to speak he can explain the lighting g cottages. The at the existin cotta resent code says, when adjacent to residential, the applicant needs to provide a lighting plan. That is just to make sure that staff is seeing that the fixtures used are not going to create glare and that they are attractive. Board member Olson asked staff if they had noticed any violations in the existing plans? Mr. Ekstrand said no, and he would hop e that the lighting fixtures proposed on these buildings are going to be compatible with what is being used in the existing cottages development. Board member Shankar asked staff if there is anything in the code that requires one of these twelve units to be a handicapped accessible unit? Mr. Ekstrand said maybe Mr. Mo ren could answer that. It is possible that that is a Y g building ode requirement that a certain number of units are handicapped accessible g but Mr. Ekstrand is not aware that any of these twelve units are handicap accessible. Chairperson Ledvina asked staff about the density in this development that is 7.9 units per gross acre. What is the existing density for the cottages? Mr. Ekstrand said he does not know for sure what the existing density is, he does not have the background data. But the code does allow up to twelve units per R -31-1. Chairperson Ledvina asked staff about the current use of this area, it seems to be a low -lying area and he noticed it was all graded out. Is it functioning as a holding pond right now? Mr. Ekstrand said he did not think it had been. His recollection' is that it was a treed area and he does not think any water was being held there. The applicant could address that. Mr. Ekstrand said it does drop six feet or so. It is lower than the land to the north and to the west. Chairperson Ledvina questioned if the grading complies with the grading /drainage plan. Mr. Ekstrand said Mr. Mogren is working with the city to make sure he is meeting the cities needs. He also needs a watershed district permit for grading. Chairperson Ledvina asked staff if these units are owner - occupied? Mr. Ekstrand said they would be rental units. Mr. Ledvina asked Bruce Mogren, the applicant to address the board. Mr. Mogren said that he is willing to work with the city on a lighting plan.. He wants to provide safety and security and does not want to disturb the neighbors with light glare. Currently they have one handicapped unit. They typically setup the units with the wider doors to accommodate wheelchairs to make it accessible. They want their residents to be able to stay there as long as possible. Typically, in the town homes, the tenants are a bit younger and in the villas they are for a bit older. Mr. p Mogren spoke to Jim Elias in Public Works about the grading and fill. Jim Elias was g okay with the grading plan. Chairperson Ledvina asked Mr. Mogren if he knows what the density is for the town homes? Mr. Mogren said they started out with 10 acres and they have 248 units. Chairperson Ledvina asked Mr. Mogren if this area collects water right now, is this area used for ponding in any way? Mr. Mogren said no it is not, the previous owners had a daycare out there. He knows the area is lower, he is letting his engineers take care of the technical end of it. There is no vegetation to suggest any wetlands. . Chairperson Ledvina asked Mr. Mogren if the issue with the building setbacks on the north line and the east line, how do you see that affecting your proposal? Mr. Mogren said from a practical stand point Mogren Development owns all the surrounding property. He wants this proposal to fit in as well as possible with the existing 248 units. It would be nice not to have to move those pine trees, it creates a nice buffer zone. They have hired Frattalone excavating and he thinks they would like to keep that area possible. Board member Olson asked Mr. Mogren about the parking problem, is there any way you can squeeze any additional parking onto this site? Mr. Mogren said it was just brought to his attention this week. He would be willing to look into adding some parking spaces. He would meet with his engineer to see where they could add visitor parking. He understands that people might need additional parking for guests and celebrations. Chairperson Ledvina -asked Mr. Mogren if he looked at adding some architectural elements to the villas like some brick, wainscoting on the fagade, etc. to dress it up? Mr. Mogren said they wanted these villas to fit in with the other units. They have changed some of the patterns on the siding. This will only be visible to the project itself, if you were driving by, you would not notice them from the street. Chairperson Ledvina asked Mr. Mogren about the sidewalk plan. He is confused about the sidewalk plan and the theme that is used. Board member Olson said she appreciates the sidewalk plan, they have a shared sidewalk that will provide less for the maintenance person to shovel, that also allows more green space and less covered surface. Chairperson Ledvina disagrees with that statement. He thinks some sidewalk could be eliminated and still keep the green space. He does not see the value of the T_ in the sidewalk plan. Mr. Mogren asked if that could be put in the report that he can work it out with staff regarding the sidewalk issues. Chairperson Ledvina said one of the things he is struggling with in terms of this design is overall the site plan that creates double- fronted residential lots. He realizes that this is not a public street, but it is a roadway. The two residential lots on eastern part of the development are essentially double fronted. Mr. Mogren said the cottages are built in quads of four, and that is how they ended up with the plan. He understands what Mr. Ledvina is saying but that road is not really a road, essentially it is a driveway to service just those homes. He has seen a lot of single - family subdivisions over the past 25 years and he understands the concern.' Board member Olson asked staff about the. landscape plan. Would you recommend four additional trees be planted to the east to extend that buffer in an east west pattern? Mr. Ekstrand said es, he cannot say the exact amount of trees that should be there. Y Y He also noticed in the report that it should say 6 -foot taY trees instead of 8 -foot trees. Chairperson Ledvina asked if that was the required tree height at the time of planting? Mr. Ekstrand said yes. Mr. Mogren said he wants to make sure the landscaping is done in such a manner that it is a buffer and not have to been removed when someone decides to build homes on those sites.. Mr. Ekstrand said staff would have to make sure a grading plan is approved to make sure the landscaping is not taken out. Mr. Mogren said almost everyone that builds a house loves trees and they would do what ever it takes to keep those trees. Maybe it could be made to work out something with staff regarding this issue with the trees. Mr. Mogren said that his excavator Frattalone Excavating suggested that there is a berm along the west line of the existing development.. Maybe they could continue that bern to the south and this could provide the people to the west a better buffer. If they did, maybe they could tuck a few parking spaces in that area. Mr. Ekstrand said the berm sounds like a good idea. Board member Olson said she liked that suggestion. Mr. Mogren said they want to be good neighbors. There are still some trees remaining and he would not want to disturb those trees. Mr. Ekstrand said staff does take into consideration existing vegetation. They would just like to see that area enhanced. Mr. Mogren said he spoke with the Fenton's who are some of the neighbors and they wanted to keep some of the trees in the area. He said the area is pretty well screened. The other comment is regarding the sidewalk on the property by the street. There, are several trees that are right along the street.. It would be pretty hard to snake a sidewalk g g through that area. It may be more disruptive doing that than being more helpful. Mr. Ekstrand said it was the city engineer that suggested putting a sidewalk in. He can appreciate Mr. Mogren's comments, you . would hate to lose some trees. Right now there is a dead end sidewalk that ends at the cottages property line. Chairperson Ledvina asked Mr. Ekstrand who would that sidewalk serve? Board member Olson asked what the other sidewalk conditions in this section of Gervais Avenue? Are there existing sidewalks or would this be the first piece? Mr. Ekstrand said the sidewalks would go easterly towards Rainbow Foods but they do not go any further to the west. Mr. Mogren said for the record, he does not want to put any sidewalks in along the street for fear of losing any of the mature trees.. Chairperson Ledvina said he went out to the site and he did not think a sidewalk could be done. Mr. Mogren said he didn't think it could either but he would like board members to go and walk the site to see for themselves. Chairperson. Ledvina said he understands the design concept of matching the existing exterior but he does not agree with the rationale that this area is not that visible. He thinks the quality of the design shouldn't be compromised.' It should be quality construction for the benefit of the people that live there. He certainly understands Mr. Mogren's point in terms of matching the architecture. The landscaping will dress up the area. - Board member Shankar asked Mr. Mogren what kind of windows are you proposing to use? Mr. Mogren said he believes they are double hung windows. Chairperson Ledvina asked Mr. Mogren if there will be clear panels in the garage doors? Mr. Mogren he believes they would. Board member Shankar asked Mr. Mogren who will be replacing the light bulbs outside? Mr. Mogren said there are four people on staff that take care of the tenants. D. Board member Olson moved to approve the plans (site and landscaping) dated November 26, 2001, and the building elevations (dated November 26, 2001,) for the Carefree Villas of Maplewood.

Install on -site lighting for security and visibility, subject to city staff approval. i. Construct a six- foot -wide concrete sidewalk on the north side of Gervais Avenue from the west end of the existing sidewalk (near the easterly driveway) to the west property line of the site. 4. If any required work is not done, the city may allow temporary occupancy if: a. The city determines that the work is not essential to the public health, safety or- welfare. b. The city receives cash escrow or an irrevocable letter of credit for the required work. The amount shall be 150 percent of the cost of the unfinished work. Any unfinished landscaping shall be completed by June 1 if the building is occupied in the fall or winter, or within six weeks of occupancy if the building is occupied in the spring or summer. c. The city receives an agreement that will allow the city to complete any unfinished work. 5. All work shall follow the approved plans. The director of community development may approve minor changes. 6. Acceptable modifications to the setback requirements as determined by staff. 7. To work with staff to add additional parking. 8. To negotiate with staff parameters and layouts for the sidewalk on the proposed site and future site. Board member Shankar seconded the motion. Ayes — Olson, Shankar Nay - Ledvina The motion is passed. Chairperson Ledvina said he still has an issue with the overall design of this site. He does not feel the residential lot should have a double fronted view. He felt that overall the site plan could be improved to eliminate that. Perhaps it would relate to reducing the number of units. MINUTES OF THE MAPLEWOOD PLANNING COMMISSION 1830 COUNTY ROAD B EAST, MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA MONDAY, DECEMBER 17, 2001 a. Carefree Cottages Villas (Phase IV) Behind 1733 Gervais Avenue Mr. Roberts said that Bruce Mogren, representing the Carefree Cottages Villas, is proposing to build 12 units of senior housing and 2 single dwellings. He is proposing to build this project on the north side of Gervais Avenue between the Carefree Cottages of Maplewood and the property at 1733 Gervais Avenue. The development would have two areas. As shown on the proposed site plan, there would be two one -story buildings with a total of 12 town home units north of Gervais Avenue, next to the driveway for the existing Carefree Cottages. The other part of the project would be along Gervais Avenue and would include 3 single dwellings (the existing house at 1733 Gervais and 2 new houses on either side of the existing house). The 15 total units would be on a 1.9 -acre site for an average of 7.9 units per acre. The site would have 12 open parking spaces —one in front of each garage stall. (The proposed plan does not show any guest parking spaces). The buildings would have exteriors of vinyl horizontal -lap siding, gray asphalt shingles and vinyl trim and fascia boards. To build the development, Mr. Mogren is requesting that the city approve the following: 1. A change in the city's land use plan. This change would be from R -1 (single dwellings) to R -3H (residential high density) for the 12 town house units. 2. A _conditional use permit (CUP) for a planned unit development (PUD) for a 15 -unit housing development. This PUD would have 12 units of rental senior housing and three single dwellings. The applicant is requesting the CUP because the proposed development has a mix of housing types, lot sizes and densities. In addition, having a PUD gives the city and developer a chance to be more flexible with site design and development details than the standard zoning requirements would normally allow. For example, the new proposed lots on Gervais Avenue would be 9,375 and 9,384 square feet in area. 3. A lot division to. divide the property into four lots - 3 lots for the single dwellings along Gervais Avenue and one lot for the 12 townhouse units. Item D. on page 7 of the staff report was a Community Design Review issue that was done at the meeting December 11, 2001. Mr. Roberts said there is a typo on page 6 item C. 3. b. removing the * from item b. Mrs. Fenton of 1725 Gervais Avenue called Mr. Roberts today and said she was unable to attend the meeting but wanted Mr. Roberts to relay to members that she is very supportive of the project and would like to see it go forward. Mr. Roberts said one recommendation from Mr. Ahl, the public works director, is that the developer extend the sidewalk that was built with the earlier phases of the cottages to the west along Gervais Avenue as part of this project. It is staffs opinion that the city council is going to be looking into more detail regarding the opportunity for developers to build sidewalks for eo le p p to use as a means of transportation whenever possible. Mr. Roberts said the developer, Mr. Bruce Mogren, has some concerns regarding he sidewalk g issue and that will need some discussion. Mr. Roberts said this item did go to the Community Design Review Board December 11, 2001. The members did have several concerns with the proposal, one that needs to be worked out is the property line of the garages and the setbacks and the buildin g code. In this case the garages should be setback three feet. Commissioner Trippler asked staff in the recommendations on page 5 item B. 3. it talks about the Y g city defines senior housing as being for persons that are 62 ears of age or older. In the Will applicants presentation he talks about persons over 55 for this development. there be a problem with this? If in fact it is a senior housing development and there is age restriction, how does the city get involved with finding out if people are of the appropriate a e or not? g Mr. Roberts said the city has required from some developments that annual reports be filed with the city showing the ages of the tenants and the city.would get a copy of this which is one way to review that. As far as the age of senior housing being 55 or 62, the city has had senior housing developments with 55 -age minimum and some with 62 -age minimum. He believes if you go to the age 55 there are some different rules that come into play with HUD and fair housing law verses age 62. What ever works with the developer is probably fine with the city but the city and the developer should be consistent. Mr. Bruce Mogren could probably speak more about this issue. Commissioner Trippler asked if the city gets a report from a housing unit and there are people - that are under age 55 or under age 62, then what does the city do? Mr. Roberts said fortunately the city has never had that happen. But if it did happen the city would have to contact the management and see why it happened and try to get the p roblem resolved 'as quickly as possible or bring the conditional use permit back into the council for a review. Mr. Bruce Mogren did give Mr. Roberts a slightly revised plan with changes to show additional parking spaces. Commissioner Frost asked Mr. AN regarding reviewing the initial project they did talk about sidewalks from that development to Flandrau. They ended up stopping short of the three single - family lots. One of the issues was a large tree in front of the existing single - family house. Because the lot is so small, would you move the tree in front of their window to put this sidewalk in or cut the tree down? He is not sure you can get a six -foot sidewalk in and still meet the requirements. Mr. AN said his opinion is that the city can make it work, if necessary they may not have to make it a full six -foot sidewalk in some areas. He feels it is necessary to provide a facility to make sure the pedestrians are not out on this roadway. He feels the road has enough traffic that this should be provided for the pedestrians and the traffic will increase if these units are built causing more need for the sidewalk to be there. Commissioner Ahlness asked.what the technical way that the city can have the garages come right up to the property line? Mr. Roberts said the term in the past that has been used is called zero lot line. For example, if you have a duplex, you have a property line down the middle between two units, there's wall against wall and there is a property line down the center of that. In speaking to the building official David Fisher, he wasn't sure that could be done along the garage wall because there is an opening there and that wall moves with the garage door going up and down. So the wa y to possibly resolve that is to do a lot division so the lot Fine is moved up three or five feet away from the units and the development parcel becomes a little larger, the existing cottages site becomes a little smaller by transferring that strip 'of land to this development site. It doesn't change the look of it, it simply moves a line on paper. The intent of the building code is that you don't want building next to building with openings and have a fire spread from building to building. In this case with having the driveway there they know it is going to stay, but you still need to meet the technical needs of the building code. By moving the property line, that may be one way to resolve this issue. Commissioner AhIness said it would also be true at this point, as it is drawn, the construction is too large for -the lot because it does not meet the setback requirements. It requires a change in property line for it to meet the standards. Mr. Roberts said yes, although through the PUD process the city could approve the site plan if they think it is a good fit and wave the normal setback requirements. The proposed plan is meeting the 50 -foot setback requirement on the west that is the minimum code requirement for a multiple family building residential. It is the internal property lines with the buildings that are becoming a difficult challenge. Chairperson Fischer asked staff if this property.would be in one - ownership right now then these would not be problems? If you combined the property into one site the problems would disappear? Mr. Roberts said correct. Because it has been under separate ownership and now Mr. Mogren has assembled it there are existing - property lines to deal with. Commissioner Ahlness asked staff about the parking spaces, some of the issues have been answered, but how much green space does that actually leave around the properties once you add in the six or eight additional parking spaces? Mr. Roberts said it does reduce the green space some. On the western edge the plan does leave a fairly green area even though it is shown with landscaping and trees. This green space is really no different than the cottages that are already built and occupied as far as the green space verses the number of buildings on the site. It is in character with what is already there. Commissioner Trippler said the one thing that was an issue for him was the parking. When he drove back in that area a lot of the existing cottages have two garages which allows for an additional parking spot and they have adequate spots available. behind the garage before you get to the street so if they had company come they would at least be able to park their vehicles on the driveway and off the street. The streets are extremely narrow and you would basically have to pull up onto someone's yard to park to make room for a car to get down the street. Particularly for the eight unit development there just isn't enough space south of where the garages are on the four units to the south unless they park their car diagonally across two garages. He feels real uncomfortable saying go ahead and build this development if the p city finds out that there is inadequate parking something will be worked out to find ' just g more parking space. There isn t enough space for parking. In the new plan where the architects squeezed q zed a few more parking spaces in here and there that may alleviate some of the problem. Y p However, this is senior citizen housing and he uses his arents as a good example, if p g p his father had to walk 30 or 40 feet to get to someone's house, he probably ould not o visit them. So parking that is very near the door, that is why Y g ,unless you have parki there is handicap parking near p p g e door and not in the back lot, even if you provide some additional arkin spaces here and there p g p e that would not be adequate. Commissioner Trippler asked what the developer had in mind if the arkin was inadequate p g q e to needed to find adequate space? Mr. Roberts said what staff was looking for is exact) what Mr. Mo ren provided here with . Y g p the additional parking spaces in this new revised plan. He agrees that there is not a lot of room for or parking and that was a concern of staff as well. This new plan adds eight new parking spacesto g p g the site, four areas with two parking spaces each. It was staff's and the develo er's intent p to have enough room between the garage and the road to allow a car to ark. He believes p the parking spots are 18 -to -20 feet long in front of every garage door on the south side. On the e north side it is about 22 feet. Commissioner Rossbach asked if there is any reason that these would not be exact) the same me as the other cottages, are they not owned by the same people? Why ouldn't we take this new i Y area and make t part of the cottages? Mr. Roberts said he would have to defer that question to Mr. Mo g ren to answer. Commissioner Mueller asked who owns the cottages to the north? Mr. Roberts said Mr. Mogren is a partner in those cottages, but they are not the same partners in this development. Commissioner Mueller asked if it is a matter of conversation with Mr. Mo ren and these other g partners to determine the property line matter or would this be a significant issue? Mr. Roberts said that would be a question for Mr. Mo g ren. Commissioner Ledvina asked what the purpose was for lacin the orange fencing around an entire property? p g g g Mr. AN said it is used to restrict the area that is disturbed so the fence keeps the contractor doing exactly what your plans say. If you get the fence established it makes sure somebody doesn't get carried away in doing more grading and it makes the construction q Ian equal the plans. p Commissioner Ledvina asked if this is- something new that is bein g done now? Mr. AN said it is relatively new in the industry n the past five ry ears. p y Commissioner Mueller asked about the south side of the driveway s far south as it can actually y be placed according to the property line of the homes down below? Mr. Roberts said the gap between the driveway and the property line is for screening nd g landscaping to provide a separation of properties. Commissioner Trippler said on page 6 on item B. 8., does this pertain just to the three single- family dwellings or does it pertain to the three pieces of property that they sit on? Because he noticed in the plan unit development the rain holding basin has a tail that extends across the property of 1733 Gervais. If it is stated that the are excluded from an review or condition Y Y s would that possibly cause a problem in the installation of the storage retention and if they Y decide they don't want it there? Mr. Roberts said the intent for number 8 was if the plan does go ahead and there are two new single - family homes there and somebody wants to put a deck on or an addition that they do not have to get an amendment to the PUD to be allowed to add on. The rain water garden and, the drainage areas and all going to be covered by drainage and utility easements which gives the city some review and control of what happens in those easements. So if people start changing g g approved plans within those easement areas they would be allowed to do so and would need city approval to do that. So in both ways the city has it covered and he would not foresee a problem. Chairperson Fischer asked the applicant address the commission. Mr. Bruce Mogren, of Mogren Development Company addressed the commission Mr. Mogren said regarding the age 55 for senior housing, you can restrict the age level for senior citizen housing but the lowest age level you can have is 55 years old. He currently has 248 units of senior housing and he would not want to jeopardize his federal standin g on an of those Y existing units so they are very careful to check that. That is federally regulated. He would like to recommend that he could still comply with federal law but drop the age restriction from 62 to 55 years of age for his residents. He would have to verify but he believes his second project age restriction is 55 years of age. Mr. Mogren said regarding the onsite parking, he met with the architect to add eight additional parking spaces. Most of the time he has found they don't have issues with parking. Occasionally people have birthday parties or special events then they do need some additional parking but otherwise it hasn't been a problem. Mr. Mogren said he would disagree with Mr. AN regarding the sidewalks. In walking the development in the early 1990's that sidewalk issue came up then as well. At that time it was determined he is not sure how sidewalks could be added without taking down three or four decent sized trees. There is also some significant grade changes there between the driveway of the existing home and the lotto the east. Also, when Gervais Avenue was expanded it made the front yards smaller, and if you introduce a six -foot sidewalk into a restricted front yard you will have it right up to the front door. He has a very hard time envisioning putting a sidewalk in that location. He did speak to Mrs. Fenton at 1725 Gervais Avenue and she did not want the sidewalk to be put in all the way through because she has some large trees in her front yard. When you weigh the situation, where does the sidewalk go? Gervais Avenue is four lanes right now. Mr. Mogren said in his opinion when you weigh the cost of the trees and the grade change the disadvantages outweigh the advantages of putting a sidewalk in. As far as the property lines go, Mr. Mogren owns the property for the cottages along with two other partners and he and his family own 80% of the cottages. He would appreciate it if he did not have to move the property lines because of the different financing they have for the development to the north p and to the east. It becomes more difficult with lenders to work with changes to the property lines. g p p y They have financing with Freddie Mac for 15 years and there is 7 more ears before it expires. xpires. At the end of 15 years then he is sure they will be refinancing hat at that point and time the g p y would be paying it off. If they did a realignment of lot lines he would p refer to do it at that time. Mr. Mogren said he would not mind moving the pine trees onto the back of one of the e single - family lots to produce more screening. If the ine trees were to be put on th p p e side of the lot they probably would be destroyed or disrupted in the building process. Commissioner Frost asked Mr. Mogren since he owns the three single family residential g y teal lots couldn't you move the lot lines to equal out the size of the lots? Mr. Mogren said if he moved the trees onto the back art of the lot that would make the ' P e lot size even smaller, if a person likes trees they won't mind the smaller size for . rivac p Y Commissioner Rossbach asked Mr. Mogren if the lots are less than 10,000 square feet? q eet . Mr. Mogren said yes. - Commissioner Rossbach asked how much smaller than 10,000 square feet? Mr. Mogren said you would have to ask Mr. Roberts. Mr.. Roberts said on. page 19 of the staff report, one lot is.9,375 square feet and the other i q s 9,384 square feet. Commissioner Rossbach asked Mr. Mogren if the existing house on one g g lot and it would be subdivided to create the other two lots? Mr. Mogren said that is correct. Commissioner Rossbach asked why was it chosen to make the lots less than 10,000 square feet which is the minimum lot size? Mr. Mogren said this is the way the engineers laid it out and to accomplish what the wanted and p Y they are applying for under a PUD. Commissioner Rossbach asked Mr. Mogren if these lots are to be sold off individually? Y Mr. Mogren said yes eventually. Commissioner Rossbach asked why ould you want to intentional) set u Y Y y plots that less than 10,000 square feet which is the minimum requirement? Mr. Mogren said in the past when did that over on Lydia Avenue. ue. Commissioner Rossbach said yes but those were R -1S they were designed to be small. None of the adjoining single family residential homes in that area are that way. He finds that to be a bi • . Y g stumbling block that you are creating individual house sites that are less than the city's minimum size whether it is a PUD or not. PUD allows the mixture of the two together. He has a 10 000 g , square foot lot right next to his and it is a postage stamp. Their backyard is no more than 20 feet wide and it adjoins his backyard, so basically they are in his backyard. He finds it a read p roblem having these tiny lots. Chairperson Fischer said a tiny lot depends on the zone and the density. If you are on a R -M density when you have those smaller lots they are quite acceptable in that zone. Commissioner Rossbach asked if these lots are in R -1 correct? Mr. Mogren said yes. Commissioner Mueller said right now in looking at this plan it is one big lot. Your engineers have decided to divide it up parcel a, b, c, d. Because parcel c has the largest square feet couldn't you move some square footage over onto parcel b and parcel d to even it out better? It seems kind of arbitrary how the lines are drawn out. Couldn't ou make some changes to make it closer Y g to the minimum 10,000 square feet for all three lots? Mr. Mogren said part of the problem is the anticipation of the garage on the existing home. The garage is rough and it is there while it is a rental property but once it is not rental property p Y a garage will be added. To answer Mr. Rossbach's question this is zoned as R -1 at this point. This will blend in nice. If it was single family lots being built instead of carefree villas on this site you would have houses a lot closer than this being within 10 feet of their backyards. With this plan with the villas there is a 50 -foot setback allowing more privacy for the residential homes. With a PUD this allows more flexibility with these kinds of things. Commissioner Rossbach said he is not following the point Mr. Mogren is trying to make with the 10 -foot setback he is referring to. Mr. Roberts said he believes what Mr. Mogren is trying to say is instead of more town homes coming off the driveway and the cottages as an alternative if there were single family homes fronting on the private driveway then the setback is only 10 feet verses the 50 -feet setback on a multiple family home. Commissioner Trippler said he did not understand that the planning commission was approving parcel a,b,c, and d. Where does that show up in the report? What if the commission disallowed the three individual single- family lots ?. Can the commission just approve the PUD for the cottages? Mr. Roberts said the commission could make that a recommendation. On page 6, item C, that talks about.the lot split which is diagramed on page 19. In the proposal on the front page of the staff report the items are outlined as well. The commission could recommend approval of the 12 units for the cottages and not the three lots if you chose to. Does this seem to fit in this area, if it doesn't than staff would not recommend approval. If the commission .is comfortable with the proposal then lets move it forward. Chairperson Fischer asked staff that under administrative powers on a rare occasion you may have a lot that is under 10,000 square feet, and you can administratively make a decision on that lot size, what is the margin of leeway in a situation like this? Mr. Roberts said there is a process for administrative variance approvals for up to 5% of lot area. Which in this case is a minimum 9,500 square feet, - and that involves notifying immediate property owners. Staff gives the neighbors a couple of chances to comment and raise any concerns. If they don't and it looks reasonable, then the city staff can approve it. Commissioner Frost said if you look at the three lots, if you look at the total acreage it is 30,000 square feet plus. The average is 10,000 square feet that makes it fairly close. Commissioner Mueller said he feels uncomfortable going with. parcel b and d as it is just because there is a proposed garage that they hope to put on parcel c. It is 11,000 square feet and all you have to do is change the property lines. Mr. Roberts said in defense of Mr. Mogren, on page 21 of the staff report it shows the proposed grading plan and the location of the proposed garage. There is some rationale as to why he Y property lines are where they are because of the location of where the garage would fit in. Commissioner Trippler said in order to get parcel b. to 10,000 square feet Y ou would have to move the property line west five feet. If you did move it five feet and you didn't move the location of the future garage and you did not make it any smaller, you would not be able to p ut the garage in there anyway because it would be within five feet of the property line. You could put the garage in a different location maybe putting it back behind the house. He looked on the map on page 17 of the staff report and he did not see any lots on Flandrau Street that are less than 10,000 square feet in size. He certainly understands what Mr. Rossbach said earlier regarding living next to someone with a small lot and then they use your backyard as their backyard. He doesn't like the fact that Mr. Mogren is trying to squeeze something n just to squeeze it in. g q Mr. Mogren said if you look at the comments made by the residents regarding this proposed g g p p development they say it is a very quiet subdued - atmosphere. Usually you would see some protests but so far there haven't been any, people are generally happy to see this proposed development go forward. When you talk about the existing home and the proposed future garage, someone came out and looked at the property and that is how a garage would be laid out with the notched out home and the property lines. This is how it is'shown in the staff report without putting the garage in the backyard of the existing home. Commissioner Trippler said what is being discussed isn't the senior citizen homes but the three single- family homes and the size of the lots.. If these parcels are going to be for sale to anyone then we need to look at would anyone buy these parcels_ to build a home on it with those property lines. Ms. Linda Olson, a member of the Community Design Review Board, addressed the commission regarding the Carefree Villas. .She has an -issue with the proposed sidewalks in that area. She believes sidewalks unite a community and provide an alternative means of transportation for people by walking. She did - go out and see the site and felt it will be extremely tight to put the sidewalk in along Gervais Avenue. The sidewalk on parcels b,c,d should probably be delayed until the homes are built. Especially since the sidewalk would not be extended any further west at this time. Personally she would like to see sidewalks in every residential and commercial roadway in the city but in this particular case there are some substantial trees that clearly would have to go in order to put a sidewalk in. These lots are small already and puttin g a sidewalk in the front yard may be an issue as well. Commissioner Ledvina said he has an issue with the overall site plan. There is a private drive that goes into this proposed development and then there are these three single - family lots that essentially will have double frontage. He realizes this is a small drive, but he thinks in terms of design in overall layout it is certainly not optimal. There can be some things with landscaping that has been proposed but he does not feel the design is optimal. Commissioner Mueller asked staff if that private drive that Mr. Ledvina is talking about is that pushed as far to the east as it can go? Mr. Roberts said yes it is. Commissioner Ahlness he continues to get the. feeling that this proposed development is very p p tight. In looking at the garages to the north, they are right up to the ro ert line, the driveways p p Y s y to the south are short and vehicles may be touching to the garage door and may g han out into the street. As a result, the lots to the south need to be made less than the minimum size. It appears that it is being over built for the size of the parcel in question here. The are asking for They g exemptions at every turn in order to get it all squeezed in. Chairperson Fischer asked members if there areas of agreement or areas of disagreement or do g members want to address them individually or as one motion? Chairperson Fischer said the first request is for the change of the land use plan from R -1 to R -3H for the twelve town homes. The second request is for the conditional use permit for the planned unit development. The third request is for the lot split. Is there a motion? Commissioner Mueller said personally he thinks the proposed development needs more work. He thinks they need to go back to the drawing board and put this together in a better way. He g Y agrees with a number of the comments of members that they are trying to put a lot of stuff on a small spot of land and it could be packed in tight but yet reasonably and he does not think the reasonably part has been met in his mind. Chairperson Fischer asked Mr. Mueller if he thinks they are reasonably close or long way from g Y what you want to achieve? Commissioner Mueller said he is not sure of how it could look unless you decrease the size of the footprint of the town homes. You could maybe spin things and have a driveway own the Y center off the existing driveways and have the town homes going east and west? That may increase the parcels below because you may not be able to get as many town homes in that plan. Chairperson Fischer asked staff where they are on the time frame with this proposal? Mr. Roberts these plans were received by the city on November 26, 2001, and requires council action by January 25, 2002, unless the developer agrees to a time extension. That would allow one or two council meetings in January. Chairperson Fischer said to staff that a great deal of discussion has been involved around technicalities, lot lines, lot sizes, and variances. The proposal basically that members are looking at is to put an R -H on the entire site that is proposed, is that correct? Or is it just an R -H on the part where the town homes would be? Mr. Roberts said it would be an R -H on the town homes would be his proposal, and keep the single family designation for the single - family lots. Chairperson Fischer asked staff if they would have had as man technicalities if the proposal Y p p had been R -H for the whole site? Mr. Roberts said yes you would, it is more dealing with lot lines. Chairperson Fischer asked staff if the lot lines would have been required to be 10,000 square feet if they were in an R -H rather than in an R -1? Mr. Roberts said yes they still would be. But it was covered in the proposal through a PUD. Chairperson Fischer said to staff that basically takes all rules aside and acts as a law onto itself. Mr. Roberts said yes it becomes essentially a negotiated development between the city and the developer. Commissioner Pearson said he is very uncomfortable with the idea that the footprint istoo big for what they are building it on. He is wondering why parcel b. and c. could not be used for another four -unit town home building. That way you could adjust the roadways and have all the setbacks that you need and still allow a 10,000 square foot lot R -1 for parcel d? Mr. Roberts asked Mr. Pearson was your thought that the existing house would be removed on lot c? Commissioner Pearson yes it would need to be removed? Mr. Roberts said he thought it was the developer's intent to try to work around doing that. That was a trade off that the developer chose. You may want to ask Mr. Mogren that. Commissioner Trippler said we could go on all night with the different scenarios for this proposed g p p development. He thinks members should just decide whether they like the proposal or not and if you don't members should think about whether the developer should come back or not. Another scenario would be to put another four -unit town home built where the eight unit was and move the property line for parcel b,c, and d north ten or fifteen feet. Then those lots would be 10,000 square feet. There are kinds of different ways that given this amount of property you could put Y g p p YY P structures on it. He agrees with a lot of comments made by members and he thinks there is too much being squeezed onto a relatively small piece of property and it doesn't fit. Chairperson Fischer asked staff if they see anything that-might be gained by tabling to work on . g this proposal that might meet the concerns here or do you think this is a plan that will not be changed and members should act 'on what is before members? Mr. Roberts that would be a question for the applicant. Mr.' Mogren said his team has put a lot of time and effort into this project and he thinks the spirit is to have it fit with his current project. He thinks his architects have improved this proposed project over the other project. He understands that members want to kee p a lot to the minimum 10,000 square foot lot. Listening to Mr. Frost's comments as well and there is a PUD here and you have 30,000 square feet and three single - family lots. From all appearances you have the same amount of volume. He always tries. to work with staff to the best of his ability and he looks at this as a good project. He wants to introduce some additional landscaping to mitigate 600 square feet that theyare short and he thinks this will add an extra tier of rivac . At this point he p Y p would like members to act on what before the commission tonight. Commissioner Rossbach said to Mr. Mogren in the PUD this is a negotiated development. What is it that the city gets from this verses what you as the developer are getting? Mr. Mogren said he thinks Maplewood gets an additional 12 units of senior housin g that he thinks will be very nice. He thinks this proposal would be a great asset to the communityjust like the other 248 units are. He thinks the homes are on Gervais Avenue and he thinks the lots will be decent as well. He thinks Maplewood would get good quality housing, he has proven in the past that they do that. Not every developer that comes into the community builds as g ood of a product as he does. He said they take pride in what they do and he thinks it will add 12 great units for senior housing and the community and that is what the city gets. Commissioner Rossbach said he would agree with Mr. Mogren that his company develops projects. He encouraged the staff with the initial visit to the site and the concept seemed really good. He does not know how he possibly went through this and never realized that these lots were less than 10,000 square feet. Up until �/2 hour ago he was very excited about this project and thought it would be a good fit. There are certain things where he draws the line and one of them is dealing with the size of lots, he just can't tolerate making exceptions to. He feels very bad that until this point he didn't realize exactly what was happening there. Certainly he would have had the opportunity to express concerns to staff during that process when you Mr. Mogren and the staff were just working this proposed project out. That doesn't change his thoughts about this proposed project. Mr. Mogren said they did not do anything to try and hide anything from anyone. It is right out in front. It is his opinion that this proposed project speaks for itself because if you talk to any of the residents they keep it up and maintain the properties. So it is not a matter of him talking about himself it is a matter of him talking about the project and what he thinks the 1 ro'ects have done p for Maplewood. It has created some very nice senior housing for the city of Maplewood.. He thinks whenever you get into a negotiated thing like a PUD he thinks one of the things is you could have a 10,000 square foot lot with no trees which would be less desirable, than a 9,400 square foot with trees along the back that provides privacy. The three lots together are oin to g g be a total of 30,000 square feet so they will have trees back there to mitigate the size. Commissioner Frost he is looking at the R -1 S that is on Lydia Avenue. He thought those were very nice houses. From the commission members prospective would this be a problem having these single - family lots being R -1 S verses R -1 ? If it is R -1 S it is well over the 7,500 square foot minimum. He looks at these three lots as almost separate like a buffer from the proposed cottages being built. These are almost isolated from the rest of the development as is the stuff on Lydia Avenue. From that prospective he would not have a problem having these three single - family lots going R -1 S and then proceed with the proposed development as is. And actual) p p actually you could make the lots a little smaller and get the driveway to work on the north side. Mr. Roberts said again, the PUD accomplishes the same thing. Commissioner Mueller said putting trees and shrubbery on a lot that is already less than 10 square feet from his prospective with having children made his lot a lot smaller. Because now I have all these trees on his lot, it gives him more screening but it does not give him any more room, it just lets him not see something in the next neighbor's lot. If this would pass for example, where would you put those trees on this small than 10,000 o square foot lot? Would the trees q g on parcel b or parcel c's lot? These trees are going to spread out seven or eight feet wide. Mr. Mogren said he would work with staff on that issue. If they fit on the lot that the proposed town homes are going on he would put the trees there. Otherwise he would put them on the back of the other lot, it doesn't matter to him. It creates a barrier or privacy between the town homes. Commissioner Trippler if Mr. Mogren reduced the eight -unit to a four -unit or-rotated it, would that make the project undoable for you? Mr. Mogren said yes it would. One last comment if these lots were located on Flandrau Street where everything was 10,000 square feet then it makes a big difference. But this is part of a PUD and it is kind of a separate area itself and he thinks it is not a problem. Commissioner Frost moved that the planning commission approve the resolution on page 29 of the staff report. It changes the land use plan from R -1 (single dwelling residential) to RH (residential high density) for the 12 town house units of the Carefree Villas of Maplewood. The city bases this change on the following findings: 1. This site is proper for and consistent with the city's policies for high - density residential use. This includes being next to existing high- density senior housing units, a collector street and near two churches, shopping and Four Seasons Park. 2. This development will minimize any adverse effects on surrounding properties because: a. Studies have shown there will be no adverse effect on ro ert values. p p Y b. There would be no traffic from this development on existing residential streets. B. Approve the resolution starting on page 30 of the staff report. This resolution approves a conditional use permit for a planned unit development for the Carefree Villas, based on the findings required by code. (Refer to the resolution for the specific findings.) Approval is subject to the following conditions: 1. All construction shall follow the plans dated November 26, 2001, except where the city requires changes. Such changes shall include revising the grading and site plans to show the required sidewalk along Gervais Avenue. The city council may approve major changes to the plans. The director of community development. may approve minor changes. 2. The proposed construction must be .substantially started within one year of council approval or the permit shall end. The council may extend this deadline for one year. 3. The owner shall not convert the town houses in this development to non - seniors housing without the revision of the planned unit development. For this permit, the city defines senior housing as a residence occupied by persons that are 55 years of age or older. 4. There shall be no outdoor storage of recreational vehicles, boats or trailers at or around the townhouses. 5. Residents shall not park trailers and vehicles that they do not need for day -to -day transportation on the town house site. 6. The city council shall review this permit in one year. 7. The developer or builder will pay the city Park Access Charges (PAC fees) for each housing unit at the time of the building permit for each housing unit. 8. The three single dwellings are exempt from reviews for conditional use permit revisions for any expansions, additions or changes provided that such changes would meet all applicable zoning and building standards and requirements. 9. The city council shall review this permit in one year. C. Approve the proposed lot split shown on page 19 of the staff report. This plan creates four parcels for the Carefree Villas development on Gervais Avenue. This lot division shall be subject to the developer or applicant completing the following conditions before the city approves the lot division deeds: 1. The developer or owner recording drainage and utility, easements along all existing and new property lines, subject to the approval of the city engineer. 2. The developer or owner recording cross easement and access agreements for Parcel A to have access to Gervais Avenue across the adjacent property (the existing Carefree Cottages). 3. Signing an agreement with the city that guarantees that the developer or contractor will: a. Complete all grading for overall site drainage, complete all public improvements and meet all city requirements. b. Place temporary orange safety fencing and signs at the grading limits. c. Provide all required and necessary easements (including ten -foot drainage and utility easements along the front and rear lot lines of each lot and five -foot drainage and utility easements along the side lot lines of each lot). d. Pay the city for the cost of any traffic- control, street identification and no parking signs. e. Install a sign where the new driveway intersects Gervais Avenue indicating that it is a private driveway. f. Provide for the repair of Gervais Avenue (street, curb and gutter and boulevard) after the developer connects to the public utilities and builds the private driveway. g. Pay the costs related to the engineering department's review of the construction . plans. 4. Changing the proposed lot division as follows: a. Dedicate drainage and utility easements along all property lines. These easements shall be pedestrian and utility easements in the front and shall be ten feet wide, shall be 10 feet wide along the-rear property lines and five feet wide along the side property lines. b. Add drainage and utility easements as required by the city engineer. 5. Secure and provide all required easements for the development. These shall include any off- site drainage and utility easements, subject to the city engineer's requirements. 6. Record the following with the lot division deeds: a. All homeowner's association documents. b. An access agreement for the proposed town houses that ensures the tenants may use the existing driveway(s) for ingress and egress. The applicant shall submit the language for these dedications and restrictions to the city for party approval before recording to assure there will be one responsible art forthe maintenance of the common areas, private utilities, driveways and structures. 7. The city will not issue building permits until the deeds for the town house site and the three single dwelling lots are recorded and the developer has met the city conditions. Chairperson Fischer seconded the motion for purpose of discussion and to get this item moving. Mr. Roberts said if the commission is so inclined on item B. item 3. in regards to the age change for senior housing, if it does go forward you could change the age from 62 to 55 that should not be a problem. (changed in bold in the motion). Commissioner Frost concurred. Chairperson Fischer asked members if there was any further discussion or amendments to the motion? Commissioner Frost although the three single family lots ' are under the 10,000 square feet minimum, when people buy the lots they will know exactly what they are gettin g and what is surrounding the lot. You would be going in eyes wide open. He has no - problem with the proposal. Chairperson Fischer said she is in agreement with Mr. Frost.. As Mr. Frost said if the lot size is there when they buy into the neighborhood that makes a difference. Commissioner Rossbach said he would go counterpoint in that the neighborhood consists of lots that tend to be larger than 10,000 square feet and the cottages. It is his belief it would be good planning to continue what is there instead of introducing a completely new element into it. Commissioner Ledvina said he thinks the small size of the lots, and the possibility of having a rather large house on that lot makes him uncomfortable especially because you cannot restrict what size of house is put on those small lots. They could almost put a house on those lots from lot line to lot line. He has strong concerns about creating a backyard scenario that is a front yard for the town homes. Commissioner Ahlness he said if it just came down to the lot sizes that is something that may be excused but it seemed like exemptions were asked for and excuses were made to make it work from the north side to the south side. One of the. lot's are surrounded by three sides of a private driveway and that is going to be used by multiple people. We say we don't want to take down trees to put in a sidewalk but you would have to take down a big tree just to put s ara e in. Just g g about every where you go in this project you run into problems and he thinks the developer needs to go back and see fundamentally what fits in there that is economically feasible. He just thinks this project is too large to fit on this site and it needs to be reduced in size maybe with less units on this site. Chairperson Fischer asked staff about the three proposals, are they all intertwined? Do all they have to be a package as one or can they be divided? Mr. Roberts said he thinks you could divide item a. that is the plan amendment from b. and c. But b. and c. are definitely intertwined. Commissioner Rossbach said he would question whether a. can be divided from b. and c. because it reflects the changes that would follow along he property lines? Or are those property g p p Y p p Y lines right where the land use changes would occur? Mr. Roberts said the intent of the amendment was to shift the' high- density line from the north line of the south site to the south line of proposed p arcel a. that would be the south line of the proposed town homes. So that line might move three or five feet one way or another. The intent of the plan was accommodate the twelve town houses. Chairperson Fischer said those in favor of the motion indicate by saying aye. Ayes — Fischer, Frost Nays — Ahlness, Ledvina, Mueller, Pearson, Rossbach, Trippler Motion Failed. Chairperson Fischer asked staff when this item goes to the city council? Mr. Roberts said it tentatively goes to the city council January 14, 2002. Chairperson Fischer said the city council will make the final decision. � City of Maplewood Official Sign -Up Sheet By putting your name and address on this sheet, you are requesting to address the Maplewood City Council on the following topic for up to five minutes. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. Address 001, V 4 (0. ,2 2� *. Name (first &last) - please print Agenda # 4.L 1� Actio by Council MEMORANDUM Date Endor5ed TO: City Manager Modified FROM: Ken Roberts, Associate Planner Rejected SUBJECT: Comprehensive Plan and Ordinance Amendments - ISTS Standards DATE: December 26, 2001 INTRODUCTION The Metropolitan Council is requiring the City to amend the comprehensive plan and the city code to add standards about individual sewage treatment systems (ISTS). DISCUSSION City staff has been working with the staff of the Metropolitan Council to complete the required update of the Comprehensive Plan. This plan update is to include policies in the plan about ISTS - and. is to have the city add code standards about ISTS. As such, city staff has updated the Water Resources Management Plan chapter of the comprehensive plan to include policies about ISTS. Staff has included several changes to this part of the plan as suggested by the planning commission. The latest proposed update starts on page two. There are about 150 ISTS in Maplewood. Therefore, the proposed ordinance would only apply to a small percentage of the households in the city. A major concern with ISTS is ensuring that they receive regular maintenance and inspection. The Metropolitan Council and the state require the owners of ISTS to have the systems pumped at least once every three years. City staff, in order to simplify and speed up the ordinance writing process, has used Washington County's Ordinance #103 about ISTS (Individual Sewage Treatment System) for the writing of our ordinance. Washington County recently updated this ordinance making it very thorough and comprehensive about ISTS. I have attached the proposed ordinance (with Maplewood references) starting on page seven. This ordinance will meet the requirements of the Metropolitan Council and the State of Minnesota. City staff will be working out how to implement the new ordinance standards, including the inspection of new systems and the record keeping for the pumping or maintenance of existing systems. COMMISSION ACTION On December 17, 2001, the planning commission recommended approval of the proposed Water Resources Management Plan and the proposed ISTS Ordinance amendment. RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Approve the revised Water Resources Management Plan starting on page two. 2. Adopt the ordinance starting on page seven. This ordinance amends the Maplewood City Code standards for Individual Sewage Treatment Systems (ISTS) in the city. p:compplan /ists.doc Attachments: 1. Proposed Water Resources Management Plan 2. Proposed ISTS Ordinance Amendment Attachment 1 WATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENT PLAN The goals and policies in this plan for the management of water resources in Maplewood are consistent with the goals of Ramsey - Washington Metro, Valley Branch, Capital Region and East Mississippi Watershed Districts, while meeting the more specific and changing needs of the City. A map showing the four watershed districts is on page 12. Maplewood recognizes the sensitivity of surface water and groundwater and has established environmental protection policies and standards (as noted below) that enhance protection of the environment, including surface water and groundwater resources, in the city and in the region. The goals and policies in this plan provide for future development and redevelopment in Maplewood while minimizing surface water problems and enhancing nd protecting the g p g environment. The City has adopted ordinances about flood plains, shorelands, wetland protection and erosion control to address the specific problems and that these special conditions present. In addition, an important part of the water resources management plan is the management (including maintenance and enforcement programs) of individual sewage treatment systems (ISTS). The city will ensure protection of the public health and local surface water and groundwater through implementation of the Water Resources Management Plan, the ordinances and standards for ISTS and will continue to use. and enforce the other city ordinances noted above. WATER QUALITY Goat Maintain or enhance the water quality of Maplewood's surface waters. Policies 1. Cooperate and collaborate with the four watershed districts to maintain and improve water quality. 2. Cooperate and collaborate with the watershed districts in their efforts to maintain and/or to improve the water quality of specific water resources in the City. 3. Provide an appropriate level of storm water treatment upstream of lakes and wetlands, depending on the wetland's functions, values and management classification. 4. Use regional storm water detention facilities to enhance water quality by removing sediment and nutrients from runoff. Pond designs will meet the national urban run -off program (NURP) removal standards. 5. All projects using storm water treatment structures shall include a detailed City- approved maintenance plan that meets City and watershed district standards and criteria. 6. Design storm water facility inlets to prevent debris from entering the conveyance system and impeding the flow path. Encourage using BMPs (best management practices) 138 Ko ( "rainwater gardens," treatment structures, NURP ponds, etc.) and other detention facilities on all improvement and reconstruction projects, whenever practical. 7. Design outlet control structures, wherever practical, that restrict both high and low flows, to maximize sedimentation and nutrient removal. 8. Continue implementation of the City's education program that includes items about preserving and improving water quality. 9. Solve intercommunity water - quality issues through cooperation with the adjoining cities and appropriate watershed district. RUNOFF MANAGEMENT AND FLOOD CONTROL Goal Preserve, maintain, utilize and where practical, enhance the storm water storage and detention systems to control excessive volumes and rates of runoff, control flooding, protect public health and .safety and to minimize necessary public capital expenditures. Note: The map on page 12 shows the general areas in Maplewood that have the potential for flooding. The City adopted a floodplain ordinance in 1991. Policies 1. The City recognizes that runoff volumes typically increase with development; however, the City will require builders and developers to maintain peak runoff rates below the pre- development 100 -year (1 percent) recurrence event by using regional detention facilities, rain water gardens or other on -site detention facilities and encouraging the use of infiltration to reduce runoff volumes where practical. All hydrologic modeling shall be based on ultimate development of the affected watershed. 2. The City encourages the pretreatment of storm water. In addition, the City encourages the use of treatment ponds and infiltration methods for storing storm water to reduce runoff rates and volume and to improve the water quality of area lakes and wetlands. 3. Storm water management improvements shall be designed based on the critical storm event for, and the ultimate development of, the drainage area. 4. Projects that affect the storm water system shall have a protected emergency overflow structure (i.e., swale, spillway) into pond outlet structures to safely convey excess flows from storms larger than the 100 -year (1 percent) event. 5. Maplewood will require minimum building floor elevations to be above the 1 00- ear floodplain, in accordance with City and watershed district standards. At a minimum, the lowest opening of any building shall be 2.0 feet above the 100 -year floodplain and/or 1.0 foot above the spillway overflow elevation, whichever is greater. 6. Maintain existing intercommunity drainage patterns and solve any intercommunity drainage issues through cooperation and collaboration with the adjoining city and the appropriate watershed district. 139 7. Promote storm water infiltration practices where soil conditions allow and where not detrimental to groundwater supplies. WETLANDS Goal Achieve no net loss of wetlands, including acreage, functions and values. Where practicable, improve the functions, values, biodiversity_ and acreage of wetlands and their buffer areas. Note: The map on page 12 shows the wetlands in Maplewood. The City adopted a wetland protection ordinance in 1996. Policies 1. The City discourages wetland alterations. Proof that applicants or designers have given consideration to designs that do not require wetland alteration shall be reviewed before the City will consider any proposal that includes wetland alteration. Wetland alterations must be mitigated by meeting the Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) requirements, as administered by the local government units (LGUs) (currently the watershed districts). 2. Cooperate with the watershed districts in their administration of the WCA. 3. Cooperate with Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed District (RWMWD) in the administration of its wetland management plan. 4. Seek to restore previously existing wetlands and enhance existing wetlands. 5. Provide buffer zones of native vegetation around ponds and wetlands to' provide wildlife habitats, in accordance with the Maplewood Wetland Buffer Ordinance. 6. Where feasible, minimize water level fluctuations (bounce) in wetlands or detention basins to prevent adverse habitat changes. EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL Goals 1. Protect capacity of storm water system, prevent flooding and maintain water quality by preventing erosion and sedimentation from occurring, .and correct existing erosion and sedimentation problems. 2. In accordance with NPDES Phase II requirements, develop a city- maintenance plan for the inspection of all ponds, outlet structures and inlet facilities and consider initiating a pond delta removal program. Such a program should consider improvements to reduce sediment loads to ponds, wetlands and lakes to help prioritize critical improvement areas. 140 4 Policies 1. Require erosion control plans for all land disturbance activities as defined by city ordinance. The erosion control plans shall be consistent with the standards and criteria of the watershed districts' plans, the Ramsey Erosion and Sediment Control Handbook and general National Pollutant Discharge. Elimination System (NPDES) construction storm water permit requirements. 2. Preserve and enhance natural vegetation to the greatest practical extent. GROUNDWATER Goals 1. Protect the quality and quantity of groundwater resources. 2. Develop a cooperative program with the watershed district to identify infiltration- sensitive areas and develop a monitoring and testing program to monitor the impact of improvements. Policies 1. Provide increased green space, native vegetation and pond "dead" storage wherever possible and appropriate to allow for the infiltration of storm water runoff and to promote groundwater recharging. 2. Encourage use of grassed waterways to maximize infiltration where not detrimental to groundwater supplies. 3. Promote awareness of groundwater resource issues through public education and information programs. INDIVIDUAL SEWAGE TREATMENT SYSTEMS (ISTS) Goals 1. Protect the public health, safety and welfare through a comprehensive ISTS ordinance. 2. Protect the quality and quantity of Maplewood's surface and groundwater resources through the use of properly designed and maintained ISTS. Policies 1. Maintain an updated record of all known on -site septic systems, and continue to prohibit the installation of new individual sewer systems or the alteration, repair or extension of existing systems when the builder or owner can make connection to the City's sanitary sewer. 2. Enforce individual water and septic system ordinances that are in conformance with MPCA Rules 7080 and Metropolitan Council requirements. Maplewood will establish a management program that includes maintenance, tracking and enforcement programs to insure that residents properly maintain their individual sewage treatment systems (ISTS). 141 5 3. Maplewood will require property owners to meet and encourage them to exceed state rules and local ordinances for the design, installation, maintenance, expansion and repair of private on -site sewage treatment systems. Specifically, the City will adopt an 1STS ordinance for a basis for the use of these systems. EDUCATION AND PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT Goal Increase public awareness, understanding and involvement in water and natural resource management issues. Policies 1. Continue to develop and distribute. educational materials to the public and targeted groups about the City's Ordinances, policies and programs about water resources, groundwater, ISIS, wetlands, native vegetation, alternative landscaping methods, litter control, pet wastes, recycling, trash disposal, leaf collection, public area maintenance, grass clippings, lawn chemicals and hazardous materials. Information will be distributed via the City's monthly newsletter, local newspapers, cable television and any other appropriate media. 2. The City will consider alternative funding sources for storm water and surface water management, including starting a storm water utility and /or imposing additional development fees. This could be part of the Phase II NPDES storm water permit consideration process. 142 Attachment 2 ORDINANCE NO, AN ORDINANCE OF MAPLEWOOD, RAMSEY COUNTY, MINNESOTA, AMENDING THE CITY CODE ABOUT INDIVIDUAL SEWAGE TREATMENT SYSTEMS (ISTS) r The Maplewood City Council approves the following changes to the Maplewood Code of Ordinances: Section 1.

(c) Soil borings shall be made as follows: (1) Borings shall be by auger or excavation and shall be staked and protected until notification that field evaluation has been completed. Flite augers, which are non - continuous or disturb extracted soil samples, are not allowed. Borings shall be made to a depth at least four (4) feet deeper than the bottom of the proposed system or until bedrock or a water table is encountered, whichever is less. 15 24 (2) Any evidence of disturbed or compacted soil must be disclosed and may result in the prohibition of utilizing that test area. (3) Particular effort shall be made to determine the highest known water table by recording the first occurrence of mottling observed in the hole, or if mottling is not encountered, the open holes in clay or loam soils shall be observed after standing undisturbed a minimum of 16 hours and depth to standing water, if present, shall be measured. (d) A soil description shall be written for each soil observation at the proposed site. Soils should only be evaluated under adequate light conditions with the soil in a moist state and including the following: (1) The depth of each soil horizon measured from the ground surface.

(a) Test hole dimensions and locations: (1) Each test hole shall be six to eight inches in diameter, have vertical sides, and be bored or dug to the depth of the bottom of the proposed individual sewage treatment system. (2) Soil texture descriptions shall be recorded noting depths where texture changes occur. (b) Preparation of the test hole: (1) The bottom and sides of the hole shall be carefully scratched to remove any smearing and to provide a natural soil surface into which water may penetrate. (2) All loose material shall be removed from the bottom of the test hole and two inches of one -fourth to three - fourths inch gravel shall be added to protect the bottom from scouring. (c) Soil saturation and swelling: (1) The hole shall be carefully filled with clear water to a minimum depth of 12 inches over the soil at the bottom of the test hole and maintained for no less than four hours. Failure to adequately saturate the test hole may result in rejection of the test. 17 26 (2) The soil shall then be allowed to swell for at least 16, but no more than 30 hours. In sandy soils, the saturation and swelling procedure shall not be required and the test may proceed if one filling of the . hole has seeped away in less than ten minutes. (d) Percolation rate measurement: In sandy soils adjust the water depth to eight inches over the soil at the bottom of the test hole. From a fixed reference point, the drop in water level shall be measured in inches to the nearest one- eighth inch _ at approximately ten - minute intervals. A measurement can also be made by determining the time it takes for the water level to drop one inch from an eight inch reference point. If eight inches of water seeps away in less than ten minutes, a shorter interval between measurements shall be used, but in no case shall the water depth exceed eight inches. The test shall continue until three consecutive percolation rate measurements vary by a range of no, more than ten percent. In other soils, adjust the water depth to eight inches over the soil at the bottom of the test hole. From a fixed reference point, the drop in water level shall be measured in inches to the nearest one - eighth inch at approximately 30- minute intervals, refilling between measurements to maintain an eight -inch starting head. The test shall continue until three consecutive percolation rate measurements vary by a range of no more than ten percent. The percolation rate can also be made by observing the time it takes the water level to drop one inch from an eight inch reference point if a constant water depth of at least eight inches has been maintained for at least four hours prior to the measurement. (e) Calculating the percolation rate. Divide the time interval by the drop in water level to obtain the percolation rate in minutes per inch. The slowest final percolation rate for all holes within the soil treatment area shall be used for design. (fl Frost. A percolation test -shall not be run where frost exists below the depth of the proposed soil treatment system. (13) Construction and Materials. (1) Building Sewers. (A) Plumbing and Well Codes.

(B) Design of at -grade systems. (1) Rock bed absorption width shall be calculated by multiplying the linear loading rate by the soil sizing factor as identified in 9- 953(d)(20) Table III, using the percolation rate of the upper 12 inches of soil in the proposed absorption area. The linear loading rate shall be between two (2) and eight (8) gpd /ft as determined by the relationship between vertical and horizontal water movement in the soil. Total rock bed width for sloping ground shall consist of the rock bed absorption width plus enough rock on the upslope side to provide stability. (2) Rock bed length shall be calculated by multiplying the soil- sizing factor by the average design flow and dividing by the rock bed width. (3) At -grade systems shall be pressurized in accordance with Section 9- 953(d)(18). Distribution pipe shall be installed in the center of the rock bed on slopes less than one (1) percent and on the upslope edge of the rock bed absorption width on slopes one (1) percent or greater.

There shall be at least nine (9) inches of rock below the distribution pipe. 5) The entire rock bed shall be covered with a durable non -woven geotextile cover specific to this purpose. The cover must be of 43 52 1 sufficient strength to undergo installation without rupture. In addition, the cover must permit passage of water without allowing the passage of overlying soil material into the drain field rock. 6) One foot of loamy or sandy cover material shall be installed over the rock bed. Cover shall extend at least five (5) feet from the ends of the rock bed and be sloped to divert surface water. Side slopes shall not be steeper than four (4) horizontal units to one (1) vertical unit. The upper six (6) inches of the loamy soil cover must be topsoil. Topsoil must be of a quality that provides a good vegetative cover on the at- grade system and must exclude peaty material 7) Three (3) vertical inspection pipes of at least 1.5 inches in diameter shall be installed and secured along the down slope portion of the rock bed. These pipes shall be located within three (3) feet of the down slope edge of the rock bed at the middle and one -sixth of the total rock bed length and placed as measured from the ends of the rock bed. The inspection pipes shall have 3/8 inch or larger perforations spaced vertically no more than six (6) inches apart. No perforations shall exist above the permeable synthetic fabric. The inspection pipes must extend to the rock bed /soil interface and must be stabilized and capped flush with or above finished grade. 8) A vegetative cover must be established over the entire area of the at- grade system.

Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk AYES NAYS -- 57 66 MINUTES OF THE MAPLEWOOD PLANNING COMMISSION 1830 COUNTY ROAD B EAST, MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA MONDAY, DECEMBER 17, 2001 ISTS (Individual Sewage Treatment Systems) Mr. Roberts said at the planning commission meeting in November the commission had some concerns about the Water Resources Management Plan and many concerns about the proposed ISTS (Individual Sewage Treatment Systems) ordinance. Staff went back and worked on both of those, specifically on the Water Resources Management Plan on page 2 of the staff report items 5 and 6, on page 3 items 1,2, and 6, page 4 item 5, as well as number 2. at the bottom of page 4. Lastly on page 5 under groundwater goal number 2, are all policies that staff changed taking the direction of the commission. On the ISTS (Individual Sewage Treatment Systems) ordinance and took all the references to Washington County and the numbering to make it strictly a Maplewood code. The technical parts of the code have not been proposed to change. The intent of this ordinance is to go into effect for new systems to be put in or for major city reconstruct or repair of an existing system. Existing systems that are in place would be grandfathered in and would not have to be moved or changed and would fall under the provisions regarding maintenance and pumping. If they have a system that fails then they would have to meet the new standards. Mr. Trippler approached Mr. Roberts before the meeting and has found some technical errors in numbering that need to be corrected. Staff is recommending the planning commission: 1. Approve the revised Water Resources Management Plan starting on page two of the staff report. 2. Adopt the ordinance starting on page seven. This ordinance adds to the Maplewood City Code the standards for Individual Sewage Treatment Systems (ISTS) in the city. Chairperson Fischer, Mr. Trippler and Mr. Mueller had some changes to the ordinance that will be made and given to members for the next meeting. Commissioner Ledvina asked if Washington County is currently using this ordinance? And if so how long has it been used? Mr. Roberts said yes it is currently being used and has been used for a few years now. Commissioner Ledvina asked if this ordinance has a 100 -foot separation between the septic and well? Mr. Roberts said yes that is what he recalls. Commissioner Ledvina asked if previously it was 50 feet? Commissioner Rossbach answered it was 75 feet the last time he built. Commissioner Ledvina had a comment regarding implementing this ordinance and operation and maintenance of septic systems on page 62. Under Maintenance of Septic Tanks there is a major discussion stating you need to pump the septic tanks every three years, and then as an alternative the owner can inspect and measure the accumulations of sludge. He thinks this alternative to the three years of pumping is going to be a very difficult thing and also for the staff to determine whether the homeowner has actually done the pumping. He believes the alternative part should be eliminated from that paragraph. If staff thinks the septic systems should be pumped every three years than that is probably enough. Commissioner Frost said he would agree with Mr. Ledvina. However, there are exceptions to having the septic systems pumped every three years. If you had a septic system built for six people and now there are two people living in the house, you will never fill that septic system back up again. So that would be an exception. You would have to call a septic system to come and .look at the system, the will charge as much to look at it as they would charge to pump the system. So it would probably just be easier to have it pumped, however, some people are knowledgeable and may know it doesn't need to be pumped. Commissioner Ledvina asked if there should be something said about the owner shall document this and measure the thickness of the sludge in the septic tank yearly after the first three years? If the homeowner does it once and they are good for the whole life of the system. It seems to be non- specific in terms of the guidance and it is complicated. Commissioner Frost said it is easier if you just get it pumped every three years and then nobody has to worry about it. Commissioner Ledvina said he thinks someone could read the ordinance and say they looked at the septic tank and they do not have sludge therefore it does not. need to be pumped. And what would the city say? Chairperson Fischer asked staff if they have a recommendation on this? Mr. Chuck AN said on those types of issues typically the staff would inquire a as Mr. Frost described, some type of knowledgeable person to have done the inspection and documented the measurement. In most cases staff does not always take a'. persons word on things, they like to see documents in order to meet the intent of the ordinance. This looks to him like as a staff person is looking for intent and he would suggest it would require a g9 q documented inspection. Commissioner Ledvina asked Mr. Ahl if that should be said in the ordinance? Commissioner Mueller asked if it could read "May have the septic tank inspected by a certified septage inspector and documented ". Mr. Chuck AN said that would okay. Chairperson Fischer. asked about the wording in the water resources management plan and if it should be referred to as retention or detention. Mr. Chuck AN said retention means the holding of water forever and never having an outlet. The meaning of detention means to infiltrate, slowdown or. detain. The correct word should be detention. Commissioner Frost moved that the planning commission approve the two items: 1. Approve the. revised Water Resources Management Plan starting on page two of the staff report. - 2. Adopt the ordinance starting on page seven with the modifications that were discussed at the meeting. This ordinance adds to the Maplewood City Code the standards for Individual Sewage Treatment Systems (ISTS) in the city. Commissioner Rossbach seconded the motion. Ayes — Ahlness, Fischer, Frost, Ledvina, Mueller, Pearson, Rossbach, Trippler The motion is passed. AGENDA ITEM AGENDA REPORT Action by Council Date - - - TO: Richard Fursman, City Manager Endorsed - Modified - FROM: R. Charles Ahl, Director of Public Works /City Engineer Rejecd SUBJECT: Storm Sewer and Utility Improvements at Markham Pond Outlet, Project 02 -02: Resolution Accepting Petition and Authorizing Preliminary Report DATE: January 7, 2002 Introduction Mr. Robert J. Tillges has submitted a petition request for public improvements on a parcel of property at Hazelwood Street and Beam Avenue. The request includes a proposal to purchase a small parcel of city -owned property. The attached letter includes a request for city assistance for the improvements. Consideration of Mr. Tillges' request should be studied through a preliminary report that would allow a determination of any city assistance and assessment of the cost of the public improvements to the benefiting property. Background The attached map and letter describe the subject property. This parcel, which is currently undeveloped, is bisected by County Ditch No. 18, which is the City's outlet for Markham Pond. Any crossing of the outlet should be controlled by a public improvement project. The southwestern corner of the parcel includes a small 4,900 square foot parcel of city -owned property. The city originally retained this parcel for a lift station that has since been abandoned. It would seem appropriate that the parcel be sold to Mr. Tillges to enhance the property development. The process for considering Mr. Tillges' request is through preparation of a preliminary report. The report would consider the cost of the improvements along with a financing plan. The financing plan would include assessments to Mr. Tillges' property along with any city assistance. The report would be returned to the city council for consideration at a public hearing. The estimated cost of the report preparation is $2,000. Mr. Tillges is aware that if the project does not proceed to construction that the $2,000 cost must be paid by him. Recommendation It is recommended that the city council approve the attached resolution authorizing preparation of a preliminary report for storm sewer and utility improvements at Markham Pond Outlet and authorization to explore the sale of a city parcel for City Project 02 -02. RCA jw Attachments RESOLUTION ORDERING PREPARATION OF A FEASIBILITY STUDY WHEREAS, it is proposed to construct storm • m sewer improvements and utility improvements at the outlet to Markham Pond at Hazelwood Street and Beam Avenue City Project 02 -02, and to assess the benefite ' d property for all or a portion of the cost of the improvement, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, u es, Chapter 429, and WHEREAS, acity - owned parcel of ro ert e xi sts p p y xists at the southwestern corner of the proposed property that appears to have no ' p need for city ownership.

Another neighborhood meeting has been scheduled for January 15, 2002, prior to the public hearing, to give property owners an opportunity to view the completed proposal and the findings of the study. Engineering staff and the city's consultant have met on separate occasions with Open Space Committee members and Historical Society members to discuss the project. A difference of recommendations regarding the proposed trail system exists between the various rou s. In g p general, the difference focuses on whether the trail should be along the roadway, as proposed by the Open Space Committee, or a combination of along the roadway and within the Open Space Area, as recommended by the Park Commission, Historical Society and engineering staff. The Open Space Committee feels strongly that paved trails in the open space are contrary to city policy and direction. Staff recommends that these committees share their opinions about the proposal with the council at the January 14, 2002, meeting. The public hearing will be held on January 28, 2002, at which point property owners will present their opinions on the project and trail location. A final decision on the trail issue will be requested of the city ouncil on January rY 28.

AGENDA ITEM KIT , don by Council AGENDA REPORT Date TO: City Manager Endorsed M• MoModified FR FROM: Assistant City Engineer exec Ad SUBJECT: Gladstone West Neighborhood Street Improvements, City Project 00 -05 Modification of the Existing Construction Contract, Change Orders No. 1 & 2 DATE: January 7, 2002 Introduction Attached are Change Orders No. 1 and 2 for City Project 00 -05, Gladstone West Neighborhood Street Improvements. The change orders are for changes required due to unforeseen conditions and due to private agreements. Council approval is required on project change orders. Background The original amount of the contract is based on estimated unit quantities. During construction there may be unforeseen circumstances that require the modification of the planned method of construction or in the planned amount of work. The increases outlined in Change Order No. 1 are due to necessary field changes made to the sanitary sewer and storm sewer design. The increases outlined in Change Order No. 2 are due mostly to increases in the plan quantities as a result of field revisions and a result of the private driveway agreements. The revenue generated from the private driveway agreements will cover any increased construction costs related to that work, as well as the additional engineering and administrative staff time required to manage those agreements. With the approval of Change Orders No. 1 and 2, the revised contract would be increased by $71,190.27 from $961,863.58 to $1,033,053.85. Recommendation Staff recommends that the city council approve the attached resolution directing the modification of the existing construction contract in the amount of $71,190.27. Budget Impact Essentially there is no impact to the project budget, as all these increases still fall within the approved project budget outlined in the feasibility study. Most of these increases will also be funded by the private driveway agreements or by the sewer utility fund. The only required revision in the project financing, at this time, is the revenue of $59,405 created by the private driveway agreements.

Background In the feasibility studies prepared for the 2002 construction season, staff has proposed that the street assessment rates, as outlined in the city's Pavement Management Policy, NOT be raised for 2002, rather that the rates established for the 2000 construction season be utilized. This proposal is being made for two reasons: (1) construction costs in the last few years have generally not kept pace with inflation, and (2) by holding the assessment rates steady, the assessment rates will essentially be lowered over time by the factor of inflation. For example: based on the policy, the 2002 street assessment rate for the type of improvement proposed for English Street and County Road D would have been estimated at approximately $4185 /unit. By utilizing the base rates outlined in the pavement management policy for the 2000 construction season, the rate for this year's projects would now be at $4000 /unit rather than $4' 185. The storm sewer assessment rate is still proposed to increase from $615 /unit to $630 /unit. Staff intends to propose a revision to the Maplewood Pavement Management Policy later this year in preparation of the 2003 construction season. Recommendation It is recommended that the city council establish the 2002 construction season street assessment rates at the 2000 base rates outlined in the Maplewood Pavement Management Policy, and establish the storm sewer assessment rate at $630 /unit.
