MOTION by Commissioner Billings to approve the Resolution of the Interfund Loan as presented. Seconded by Commissioner Holm. UPON UNANIMOUS VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON PRO TEM GABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED. 4. Approval of Contract Purchase Agreement(s) — Gateway Northeast Paul Bolin, HRA Assistant Executive Director, said that the Sikh Society will agree to terms of the purchase agreement, but by laws require that 213 of their membership vote to approve all land sales /purchases. There were not enough members present Sunday to vote on the purchase agreement. Mr. Bolin said that 5905 University Avenue, Select Products, agreed to terms of the purchase agreement two 2 weeks ago. Late yesterday their attorney suggested 43 changes (mostly minor). Staff recommends approval of this purchase agreement. Chairperson Pro Teen Gabel asked if HRA had any liability for taxes when renting property out. Mr. Bolin said that if a person was renting the building and are not a non profit organization, the rent would not be exempt. Commissioner Meyer noticed that both proposals did not include relocation costs. As a generality, he asked what kind of cost savings that represented. He wondered now much the city would pay if the seller was asking for relocation costs. Mr. Bolin said that the state does give some flexibility. The person acquiring the property can agree to a fixed payment built into the purchase price or other options that can get very expensive. Commissioner Meyer said he was just trying to understand what the cost savings would be to help accept some of the expenses presented tonight. Chairperson Pro Tem Gabel asked a question on page 7, item 25, why there is a paragraph about eminent domain as that information does not seem to be what HRA agreed upon. Mr. Bolin said that the statement came at the seller's request which is much like what HRA did with the rail site. This gives them certain tax advantages, additional time to reinvest the proceeds from the sale etc. Chairperson Pro Tem Gabel asked if this opened HRA up to any liability. Mr. Bolin answered no. Commissioner Billings said the landowner receives a tax break if the property is acquired by eminent domain or the threat of eminent domain. Commissioner Holm noted that the Select Products purchase agreement has three different pin numbers. He asked if this meant there were three different properties HRA was acquiring. Mr. Bolin said that is correct, the property has three separate pin numbers. MOTION by Commissioner Meyer to approve the contract purchase agreement of 5905 University Avenue, Select Product Company, and to authorize signature by Chairperson Pro Tem Gabel. Seconded by Commissioner Holm. UPON UNANIMOUS VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON PRO TEM GABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY Commissioner Billings asked that when the rest of the parcels are presented if HRA could get a detailed breakdown of costs so the square footage cost can be compared. Mr. Bolin said that would not be a problem. INFORMATIONAL ITEMS 1. Housing Loan Program Update Paul Bolin, HRA Assistant Executive Director, said that in February one RLF Loan was closed which makes one loan year to date. There was also one Remodeling Advisor Visits making one visit year to date. Chairperson Pro Tem Gabel asked for an update on loans and delinquencies for the next meeting. Mr. Bolin said that can be provided in the packet for the next meeting. Mr. Bolin said that the 11"' Annual H &G Show held this past Saturday. Over 1,000 people attended and Fridley was well represented, staff met with over 50 residents over the course of the day. 2. East Moore Lake Landscaping Improvement Project Scott Hickok, Community Development Director, said that over the last few years, city staff, Council and Commission members, as well as the general public have expressed concerns about the overall condition of the landscaped retaining walls on the boulevards and the medians along East Moore Lake Drive, between Highway 65 and Central Avenue. Mr. Hickok said that as part of the redevelopment of this area in 1988, a Landscape and Maintenance Agreement was drawn up between the property owners and the City. in that agreement, the City agreed to construct and install the landscaping in the boulevard and medians, with the condition that the property owners maintain the quality of landscape that would be consistent with a first class business park. Mr. Hickok said that some of the property owners have been notified by the City in the past for their lack of maintenance of these landscaped areas. A few years ago the City even coordinated with the property owners to hire a contractor to specifically maintain these areas, in the hopes that with some extra attention, the shrubs /plants could be brought back to life and revitalized. Staff was disappointed with the contractor's lack of effort in restoring the. plant material; simply mowing and selectively pruning the vegetation did not bring back the appearance of the planting areas. It also should be pointed out that the majority of the existing plants in the landscaped beds have been there since 1988 and due to the lack of maintenance, have probably met their life expectancy. Mr. Hickok said that in an effort to revitalize this prominent area of Fridley, City staff has met with a landscape company to develop a new landscape plan for the retaining wall beddings and medians along East Moore Lake Drive. We have scheduled a meeting with the property owners for March 11, 2009 to review the proposed plan and to ask for their participation in the project. City staff has determined that the best way to finance this project would be to have all property owners involved equally split the costs of the project. The project entails the removal and disposal of the unsalvageable plant material, trees, sod, and landscape rock and installation of new plants /shrubs and trees, plus preparing the landscape beds with new edging and rock/mulch. Mr. Hickok said that staff asks HRA to consider sharing 115 of the cost of the proposed redevelopment project (estimated cost is $10,817.40). Staff is not asking for the commitment at this time, simply HRA's consideration. A meeting with the other four property owners will be held on Wednesday March 4, 2009. The purpose of that meeting will be to present the project and to request their consideration as well. Commissioner Meyer asked if this item will go out for competitive bids. Mr. Hickok said yes but the proposal in this presentation came to staff. Staff's interest is to go out into the market and offer the opportunity to other contractors to make certain this project has the best product and value. Commissioner Meyer said that the problem is that one contractor's idea looks very nice and it will be hard to judge these because someone else can piggyback on this idea. Mr. Hickok said Commissioner Meyer has a valid point but this type of contractor takes great pride on their artistry and want to put their signature on the landscaping proposal which should present different projects to evaluate. Chairperson Pro Tem Gabel asked if someone was available to pull all the ideas together. Mr. Hickok said that is something that may be the silver lining in this process. There is a desire to pull ideas together and one thing staff heard back is that they like the idea of the consistent mowing and wanting to keep the properties flowing, looking like one piece of property. Merchant organizations help pay for uniformity and this may spring some new ideas. Chairperson Pro Tem Gabel asked if the city participates in this, how the maintenance comes about. Mr. Hickok said that one thing staff learned was to look at things like irrigation and early contracts /agreements such as HRA paying for irrigation to make sure that it still operates and continues to look well maintained. The city has made some repairs to the irrigation but the system remains healthy. Irrigation is the key to good looking landscaping especially when there is so much unpredictable weather. If the local merchants aren't going to take care of the landscaping, he city will take care of it and bill the merchants. Chairperson Pro Tem Gabel said that the city needs some manner for continued maintenance because maintenance is not free no matter who does the maintenance. She asked for staff to address this at the next meeting. Chairperson Pro Tem Gabel commented on the ground breaking ceremony for the Northstar Rail. Everyone was very pleased about the community rail. Commissioner Holm said the groundbreaking ceremony had a great turnout. Mr. Bolin said that over 200 people were at the groundbreaking ceremony. Chairperson Pro Tem Gabel said that staff has done an outstanding job at making this happen. ADJOURNMENT: MOTION by Commissioner Meyer to adjourn. Seconded by Commissioner Holm. UPON UNANIMOUS VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON PRO TEM GABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE MEETING ADJOURNED AT 5:00 P.M. Respectfully Submitte�, ,Ku�)� Krista Monsrud Recording Secretary Fridley Housing and Redevelopment Sal Authority ��o ZYM, MEMORANDUM DATE: April 30, 2009 TO: William W. Burns, Executive Director of HRA FROM: Paul Bolin, Assistant HRA Director SUBJECT: Increase Income Limits For Loan Program Introduction The Center for Energy and Environment (CEE) is the non- profit agency responsible for administering the HRA's housing rehabilitation programs. The Authority has contracted with CEE since 1996 to oversee the housing programs. Partnering with CEE, allows the HRA to outsource most of the administrative functions, including program marketing, loan processing, underwriting, loan closing, and disbursements to the contractors. Recent conversations with CEE Staff, strongly indicate a need to revisit and increase the income limits for the Home Improvement Loan Program. In 1996 the income cap was $58,650. In 2001 the income limit increased to $63,000 and in 2004 it went to 115% of area median income as set by HUD. In 2004 the incomes by household size were as follows: a household of 1: $61,755, household of 2: $70,610, household of 3: $79,350 and household of 4+ at $80,000. There was no provision to automatically increase the limit from year to year. Each year we get the new income limits froze. HUD and they have continued to increase. The current limit at 115% for a household of I is $67,563, 2 is $77,165, 3 is $86,825 and 4 is $96,485 and so on. For a family of 4 or more, this would be an increase of over $16,000 in income if we were to adjust for the current HUD median incomes. The reason for this request is that over the past few months we have had to turn away residents from our program, as their incomes exceeded our now 5 year old limits. According to Jim Hasnik, CEE Loan Officer, "the $80,000 limit pretty much restricts the program to a household of 2. I have had a couple recent applications that would have qualified if the income cap increased with the household size, so a household of 3 would be at $86, 825 or a household of 4 at the $96,485 ". CEE also recently informed me that they have had 2 applications in which retired couples exceeded our income limits for 2 person households. CEE has seen a number of changes in income limits in the other communities they serve. This problem is not unique to Fridley. Following are some of the updated income limits in these other Cities: Coon Rapids & Blaine: 110% of median and no limit on the family size. Goes up with each household member and is based on adjusted gross from Tax Return. Brooklyn Park: 80% of median income or less for a4% loan and 115% fora 5% loan. Oakdale : Income cap of $96,500 for a 4% loan. St Louis Park: If income under $67,120 it's a 4% rate. Between $67,121 and $96,500 it's at 5% loan. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Authority approve the increase in income limits for the Fridley Home Improvement Loan Program. Adjusting our income limits to reflect the changes in incomes over the past 5 years will stimulate more home improvements in the City of Fridley. Fridley Housing and Redevelopment Authority MEMORANDUM DATE: April 30, 2009 TO: William W. Burns, Executive Director of HRA FROM: Paul Bolin, Assistant HRA Director SUBJECT: Approval of Mowing Contract Introduction The HRA has had a good working relationship with Complete Grounds Maintenance for the past 5 summer seasons. The rates have been relatively low and the service very reliable. Despite this good history, when the City went out for RFP's on their mowing and weed abatement needs, I asked that the HRA's mowing needs be included. Following is a chart compiled by Julie Jones, Planning Manager displaying the results of the RFP. HRA Grass Cutting RFPs 2009 Special Notes Located in Wyoming Have Columbia Heights contract Located in Lakeville Located in New Brighton, but seem unfamiliar with this line of work want fuel surcharge option & can do trash cleanup too Located in Bloomington Recommendation Staff recommends that the Authority contract with Complete Grounds Maintenance for the 2009 summer season.

DATE: May 1, 2009 TO: William W. Burns, Executive Director, Fridley HRA Paul Bolin, Asst. Executive Director, Fridley HRA FROM: Scott J. Hickok, Community Development Director SUBJECT: East Moore Lake Landscape Revitalization As you will recall, in March we discussed the HRA's potential involvement in revitalization of the landscape along East Moore Lake Drive. We have made great progress in this regard, since that March meeting. In fact, we have every property priced out, signed on, and ready to move ahead with the project, except the folks that own the Jacobs Trading /Only Deals property. Due to a tax matter on their property, they were unable to commit to any contribution to this project, which unfortunately means their site will be left as is. Each of the three other major parcel owners, the fitness club and two shopping centers will share x.$41,577 cost of the project ($13,859 ea.). Additionally, these 3 large property owners will be responsible for the maintenance of the irrigation system that was installed with the original landscaping project. The International Ministerial Foundation (IMF) has a smaller parcel and will be assessed a smaller amount, $3,300. The price for the Fridley HRA's contribution will be $4,900 (approximately half of what we were estimating in March). The HRA has a lower price for a few reasons. First, they have a smaller parcel with a smaller frontage and only 3 planters. Also, the original agreement has Quality Growth (owners of the shopping center across the street) responsible for your planters and maintenance on the parcel now owned by the HRA, and finally, the HRA is not contributing to the median replanting, which is once again part of what the other 3 large owners were responsible for in the original agreement. Staff got a second bid on the HRA's piece of this revitalization. That bid was from Mickman's Nursery and was very competitive. Their price would in fact be $200 cheaper for each of the HRH's 3 planters, or $600 less in total. After evaluating however, staff believes there is a benefit for using the same contractor (Curbside Landscape and Irrigation) that is installing the rest of the project, in spite of the added cost. This will make tear out and re- planting more efficient and it will likely lead to added plant/project consistency. Recommendation Staff recommends authorization of a $4,900 expenditure to revitalize the landscape materials and planters on the HRA's Property on East Moore Lake Drive.

Spaces such as the commercial kitchen; physical & occupational therapy, and resident storage would be shared between the senior residence and the attached nursing home. The clinic will be a 2-story, 50,000 s.f. building, with a brick, glass and stucco -like exterior. Physician parking will be provided in a parking lot west of the proposed building, while patient parking will occur on the east side of the building. A parkway -type entrance drive is proposed to straddle the new property line between the clinic building and the senior complex to the north. Joint access and maintenance agreements will be required to assure perpetual cooperation. This joint drive will also serve as the fire access to the City's fire training site and replace a current fire - training site access easement that exists north and east of the arena. A 3 replacement easement has been offered by the developer, but must be formalized through use of the appropriate descriptions, documentation and filing. SITE HISTORY Columbia Arena was originally constructed in 1968. In 1974, a variance was As a Before the arena was constructed in 1968, the subject property was zoned M -2, Heavy Industrial. When Anoka County purchased the property and constructed the ice arena in 1968, the property converted to a P, Public Facilities zoning. In 2005, Anoka County sold the property to the Minnesota Youth Sports Association (MYSA). In 2007, MYSA made a development deal with. Kraus Anderson on the Columbia Arena property. Krause Anderson in turn sold the arena to a private investor named William Fogerty. Prior to the sale, the MYSA representative asked the City what they saw as future development potential for the 12 + acre site. Staff explained that the site is zoned P, Public Facilities and that zoning will remain as long as the land is publicly owned. Once sold to a private entity, the zoning would revert back to its pre - public status. Since, the property is now owned by a private investor the zoning is M -2, Heavy Industrial and as such, any development other than an M -2 development will require a rezoning.. Staff's discussion with the sports association also used examples about what types of developments a site like this might be used for. Obviously, an M -2 use is a possibility, but development -wise, the City would need to determine whether M -2, Industrial still makes sense in light of the development that has occurred since the late 60's. ANALYSIS Rezoning Request, #09 -09 Premier Central 65 Partners is requesting a rezoning for the Columbia Arena site, located at 7011 University Avenue, from M -2, Heavy Industrial to R -3, Multi - Family. As stated previously, the property was zoned P, Public Facilities when Anoka County purchased the property and constructed the arena in 1968. The zoning reverted back to M -2, Heavy Industrial when a private investor purchased the property in 2007. The proposed rezoning is being sought to allow for the redevelopment of the site. The City's Zoning Ordinance and official Zoning Map are the mechanisms that help the City achieve the vision laid out in the Comprehensive Plan. The 2020 Comprehensive Plan was developed with resident input taken from several meetings held between 1998 and 2000 and is a "tool intended to help guide future growth and development of the community while looking to the future and working towards achieving a community wide vision ". The 2020 Comprehensive Plan designated this parcel as Public because of the arena use. Since the arena building is no rd longer viable for the use as an ice rink, the most obvious use change would allow for redevelopment of the site. The, proposed medical clinic and senior project meets several of the objectives that the residents of Fridley identified in the visioning sessions for the 2030 Comprehensive Plan update. This update is before the Met Council for approval at this time and staff expects to have the final review before the City Council in June of 2009. One of the goals identified through those meetings and the telephone survey was to "Maintain Fridley as a desirable place to live." Ways to accomplish that goal are to provide more housing diversity and to make Fridley a place where the aged can stay. Only about 8% of Fridley's housing is of the townhome or condominium structure type, yet 23% of Fridley's residents were over age 55 in 2000, and that percentage is growing. To accommodate Fridley's senior citizens desires to live in maintenance -free housing (no yards /house exterior care), more types of senior housing needs to be constructed. Types of senior housing to consider are one -level townhomes, independent living, assisted living, nursing homelmemory care facilities. It is also important to explore the availability of a private maintenance service that would allow seniors to stay in their single family homes. This area of University Avenue, specifically the Columbia Arena is identified as an area for future redevelopment in the proposed 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The Economic and Redevelopment Plan chapter in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, states that the City should continue to pursue high density senior housing to meet the demand for this type of housing in Fridley. The purpose of redevelopment is to provide the opportunity for more efficient land uses and eliminate inefficient land uses and under - utilized parcels. Redevelopment can also provide an opportunity to meet current market demands and desires of the community, it can create new tax base, and can create additional job opportunities. All the above purposes of redevelopment have the potential of being met with the redevelopment of this area for a senior living facility and medical center. R -3, Multiple Family Development is one of two possible designations that fit this mix of development as proposed. The other is S -2, Redevelopment District. Premier Development has chosen the R -3 classification to pursue for their development. In accordance with zoning standards this designation is acceptable, since it is an expansion of a district that already exists (Woodcrest Baptist Church) and it does not require extraordinary considerations. Both nursing and convalescent homes and medical centers are permitted as special uses in an R -3, Residential District. Applications have been made for the necessary considerations for special use permits. Council's discretion to rezone a property is broad, however, it must follow logic as it relates to the overall plan for future development as described in the Comprehensive Plan and either be identified as a redevelopment designation, or its new zoning designation must represent an expansion of a zoning district that exists currently nearby. This request passes the test for a rezoning in that it both matches the Comprehensive Plan vision for redevelopment and it does represent an expansion of the Woodcrest R -3, Multi - family residential district. Plat Request, #09 -02 Premier Central 65 Partners is seeking to replat the properties located at 7011 University Avenue to create two separate lots. The proposed replat will consist of two lots; Lot #1 and Lot #2, Block 1, Columbia Addition. Since, the petitioner is seeking a rezoning to R -3, Multi - Family; City staff has asked the petitioner to design their projects to meet the CR -1 standards for the Medical clinic and the R -3 standards for the senior development. The petitioner has designed both projects to meet the criteria set forth within the City code and will be further analyzed 5 within the separate special use permit reviews on this report. Each Parcel meets the minimum lot size required for the R -3 zoning district. Special Use Permit Request, #09 -03 Medical Clinic Analysis -- Hospitals and medical clinics are a permitted special use in an R -3, Multi - Family zoning district, provided that code requirements related to building and site requirements and parking are met. The proposed medical clinic with be located on Lot 2, which will be the southern lot. The project area is 282,101 sq. ft. (6.48) in size. The petitioner is proposing to construct a 50,000 square foot medical clinic on this lot. A medical clinic of this size would require 300 parking stalls. The petitioner is proposed to construct 303 parking stalls on site, which will meet code requirements. All other code requirements, including but not limited to, setbacks and lot coverage are being met on this site. Special Use Permit Request, #09 -04 Senior Project Analysis - City Code allows independent living, assisted living, and nursing homes as a permitted special use in an R -3, Multi - Family zoning district, provided that code requirements related to building, site requirements and parking are met. The petitioner is proposing to construct a 4 -story senior development along the west and north sides of Lot 1, with an attached 1 -story nursing home along the east side of the lot. The proposed 4 -story building will be 147,200 sq. ft. in size and the 1 -story nursing home will be 25,840 sq. ft. in size. The petitioner is proposing to construct a 176 -unit senior housing complex, which will consist of 57 independent "catered" units, 39 assisted living units, and 24 memory care units, as well as 35 nursing care beds,10 care suite beds and 2 guest units. The development will include 58 underground parking stalls and 58 surface parking stalls, for a total of 116 stalls. The R -3, Multi - Family zoning regulations.states that the average lot area required per dwelling unit is 2,500 sq. ft. for the units on the first (3) three stories with an additional 950 sq. ft. per unit from the fourth through sixth stories. National and regional development trends for assisted living and memory care appear to point to a lesser lot size requirement. Though well - maintained landscaped grounds are essential to project appeal and resident enjoyment, the size of the lot in this type of development can be smaller because the opportunity for residents to participate in larger scale outdoor activities on the grounds is much smaller. Also, less land is required because of the fact that the residents typically do not have cars, nor do they drive. Therefore, there is a lower standard for the number of parking stalls required and less land area to accommodate the automobile use. Using the 2,500 s.fi, of land per unit for the 120 traditional independent or assisted living units, a land area of 6.89 acres is required. The developer has allowed 7.65 acres for that portion of the development. The units beyond the 120 traditional units are beds, bed suites, or 2 guest rooms; these are not typically calculated in the formula requiring 2500 s.f. per unit, since they are not units that typically require unit owner cars or yards space. Instead these units share approximately an acre of land that remains, after the 120 units/2500 s.f. requirement has been met. Since this is an open common space 0 development where individual yards are not defined, staff suggests that the land area provided for all residential portions is adequate for the common enjoyment of all residents. Section 211 of the City's Subdivision ordinance states that if the Planning Commission or City Council upon finding any regulations or requirements of the Code that is not applicable to a proposed preliminary or final plat, that it may permit variations that are not contrary to the intent and purpose of the applicable law. The R -3 regulations that require 2,500 sq. ft. for each unit are clearly meant for an apartment complex or condo development and are not meant for a senior development that is occupied with small memory care units and nursing home beds. As a result, it is acceptable for the Planning Commission and City Council to endorse this interpretation of the Code for purposes of a senior living development such as this, through the platting process. Making this modification is not intended to set precedence for future requests that are not of a similar nature. City code requires that buildings within the R -3, Multi - Family zoning district not exceed 65 ft. in height, when measured from grade to the mid -span of the roof. The petitioner's plans currently show the building at 60 ft. to the peak, therefore meeting code requirements. The petitioner just received the soil boring for the parcel and has discovered that there is a high water table in the area where the senior building will be located. As a result, they may need to increase the height of the building to compensate for the high water table. The petitioner has expressed to staff that they are confident that they will be able to comply with the maximum 65 ft. height limit. The proposed project is in- compliance with lot coverage, parking and all setback requirements. City code requires 104 parking stalls based on types of units within the building. They petitioner is showing 116 parking stalls, which exceeds code requirements. City staff would recommend that instead of installing parking stalls that aren't required, that those additional spaces be used for additional green space, with proof of parking. HOUSING STUDY This petitioner has not submitted a formal housing study. However a memorandum from a housing analyst has been submitted to this development group indicating that there is a demand in the Fridley area for 240 beds (skilled nursing beds) of the above referenced nature. They note that over the next five years the level of units demanded now will likely decrease due to other competitive developments in the area that are now in some stage of planning or construction. TRAFFIC 2030 Comprehensive Plan -- Transportation Chapter The City's 2030 Comprehensive Plan indicates that in 2005, the portion of University Avenue adjacent to the proposed Senior Living / Medical Facility project carried 34,000 vehicles per day. At this traffic level, it's carrying 3,000 less vehicles per day than its maximum design capacity. Using the State's range of 31,000 to 37,000 vehicle trips per day the roadway is within specifications to function at a Level of Service (LOS) D. The 2030 Comprehensive Plan anticipates that University Avenue will be carrying over 38,000 vehicles per day by the year 2030, based upon increases in population for Fridley & surrounding communities, as well as redevelopment and reinvestment within Fridley. At 38,000 vehicles / day, University would above its design capacity. This project brings the roadway and its intersection at 69th and University Avenue closer to capacity, earlier than anticipated. As a result, the State of Minnesota was asked to comment on the perceived or real impacts of the development, rA If this segment of University were to be modified to a divided 6 -lane roadway, the roadway widening would increase its capacity range from 31,000- 37,000 to 55,000 to 61,000 vehicle trips per day. That improvement is not scheduled in the State's near capital improvement horizon, but is not necessary based on this project alone. Review of Traffic Study information A trip generation analysis based on the methods and rates published in the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 7 1 Edition, shows the Assisted Living Land Use category in the ITE manual to determine that the proposed Senior Project complex would generate a total of 363.5 trips per day if all beds within the complex were occupied. Based on the information provided, the senior building would create a slight increase to the traffic at the intersection of 69th Avenue. NE and the service drive, but only during peak hours. During all other times, there will be no perceptible increase in the volume of traffic. At no time will this project add a perceptible increase to University Avenue traffic volumes, according to Link Wilson, Kaas Wilson Architects. This intersection was designed to handle traffic from the ice arena, and is consequently adequate to handle the traffic volumes of this proposed development. It should also be noted, that according to the ITE manual, studies have shown that less than 5% of residents in an assisted living facility own vehicles, and if they do, they are rarely driven. Employees, visitors, and delivery trucks make up most of the trips to this facility. The ITE manual also points out that the "peak hour" generator typically doesn't coincide with the "peak hour" of the adjacent street traffic for an assisted living facility. This is primarily related to the shifts of the employees beginning at 7:00 a.m., 3:00 p.m., and 11:00 p.m. The typical peak hours on most roadways are between 6:00 -7:00 a.m. and 3:00 -4:00 p.m. The developer has indicated that the peak visitor time is on Sunday when the medical facility will be closed. Traffic information from the developer regarding the clinic portion of the development is broken up in a different manner and does not use ITE numbers, but their experience as a basis. The Clinic indicates that it sees 6,500 patients per month. This is based on a schedule of 266 hours and 24.4 patients per hour. The employee count for that complex is 100 employees who work staggering shifts, throughout the day. The clinic will be open 7:30 am to 8:00 pm and on Saturdays 8:00 to noon. The Minnesota Department of Transportation engineers.concur with the conclusions of the developer's traffic analysis. The combination of uses on this site will not cause the need for changes at intersections, including signals. WETLAND AND STORM WATER MANAGEMENT The petitioner has illustrated that storm water management for the site will be handled using a standard pond /surface drainage system designed to meet the watershed's requirements for rate, quality and volume control NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING The petitioner held a meeting with the neighborhood regarding this project on Wednesday, April 29, 2009, at 7:00 P.M. in Room 114 of the Fridley Community Center. Approximately 50 people attended the meeting and the comments and questions were very positive. It appeared there was much support for the project. A couple questions were asked regarding the choice to place the clinic south and the residence north. The developer indicated that both end users preferred the site plan as proposed. A resident inquired whether truck traffic could be directed north, while cars continue to use the 69th intersection. This question's answer is something that cannot be controlled by the developer of this site, but instead is a larger issue. The City's response to that would be that the roadways and intersections were designed to handle both and signs likely would not be observed.

The clinic will be open Monday through Friday from 7:30am to 8:00pm (12.5 hrs) and Saturday from 8:00am to Noon (4 hrs). Mondays receive a slightly heavier patient load because of one additional doctor on staff. Patients will be seen all throughout business hours. During a typical month the clinic will be open for business for 266 hours. 6,500 patients 1266 hours equal 24.4 patients per hour. This further translates to one patient or automobile entering or exiting the site every 2.5 minutes. In addition there will be roughly 100 employees working staggered shifts during the day. 1715 Yankee Doodle Road, Suite 200 1 Eagan, Minnesota 55121 -1698 1 Tel: 651.379.9090 1 Fax: 651.379.9091 Email- custsery @amconconstruction.com I Website: www.amconconstruction.com I KY�tl'l �1 ylGA leM1 wsx A,/ia H! l I Alit 1OI 16 3YU !e 3.p� la.. _ _____mym -T- _� I �� molar .• } . 5 Iy _ �. � 1; say LL- e�rwmlau --- -___aY I S9 (fir 6LB H.

The entire parcel has been recommended to be rezoned to R -3 zoning to allow the multi - family housing component on the north end of the site. With the entire site being rezoned to an R -3 the request is being made for a special use permit to allow the proposed office use on the south half of the property. The office component will consist of a two story medical office building of approx. 50,000 sf.. The office building will be constructed of a structural steel fraine with exterior finishes consisting of brick, EIFS, and glass. The site will include the required water, storm drainage and sewer infrastructure along with landscaping, irrigation system, asphalt paving and curb & gutter. This approval is being requested by Premier Central 65 Partners in conjunction with Amcon Construction.
