Mr. Richard Whinnery
Town Center Development

Maple Grove, Minnesota 55311
Dear Mr.Whinnery:
The purpose of this letter is to follow up on your request to explair�g the S-2 zoning designation in
greater detail. A copy of the S-2 Ordinance has been attached for your reference.
The purpose of the S-2 Redevelopment District zoning designation is to allow for mixed uses and
provide flexibility in redevelopment projects.
The uses permitted in the S-2 zoning district, are those uses in place and designated at the time that
the rezoning occurs. Those uses approved during the rezoning are considered conforming in nature
and may continue to exist and rebuild in the event of a disaster.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions at 763-572-3599 or via e-mail:

� AUTHORITY
Memorandum
DATE: September 26, 2003 �
TO: William W. Burns, Executive Director of HRA�
FROM: Scott J. Hickok, Community Development Director
Grant E. Fernelius, Assistant HRA Director
SUBJECT: Consider S-2 Re-Zoning Request for Mississippi & Old Central
Introduction
Under the City's Zoning Code, the Authority has the responsibility to review and
comment on all S-2 Redevelopment District re-zoning requests. While the Authority
does not have formal oversight powers to approve or reject a project, it does have the
ability to forward comments and concerns to the Planning Commission and City Council.
The purpose of this memo is to provide details on the project and discuss related issues
for the Authority's consideration.
Background
Town Center Development, LLC of Maple Grove, Minnesota, is proposing a 55-unit,
senior condominium development at the southwest corner of Mississippi Street and Old
Central. The project includes the site of the former Sandee's Restaurant, the home
occupied by Tamarisk Services, and a large vacant lot. The total land area including
is 3.78 acres. A copy of the proposed site plan and building elevations are attached.
The building will be four stories in height, plus have underground parking for the
residents. All of the units will have two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and range from
1,138 square feet to 1,255 square feet in size. According to the developer, the units will
be priced between $170,000 to $190,000, with a few units in the $160,000 price range.
The developer intends to keep the restaurant building, although it would be substantially
remodeled. -
Planning and Zoning Issues
Currently, the zoning in this area is a rather odd mix of land use designations. Starting at
Mississippi and moving south, the land is zoned C-2, General Business. This designation exists
immediately next to Central Avenue, while the Tamarisk House at 1282 Mississippi and the
back half of the Sandee's parking lot and the back half of the undeveloped site is zoned C-1,
Local Business. Further south, the site where Advance Restoratior� is located is M-1, Light
Industrial. South of Advance is a vacant property owned by the HRA. That site is zoned C-R1,
General Office. Finally, at East Moore Lake Drive, Ziebart and another HRA lot are zoned M-1,
S-2 Rezoning Request
September 26, 2003
Paqe 2
Light industriai. This patchwork of zoning appears to be largely a product of applying zoning
designations to the uses that existed at the time of the first zoning map in Fridley. This land has
its future guided in the Comprehensive Plan as "Redevelopment DistricY'.
The Town Center Development group will be applying for a rezoning on the west side of Old
Central from Mississippi Street to East Moore Lake Drive. Ziebart and Advance Restoration
have agreed to aliow this petitioner to involve their properties in the request. The HRA will aiso
be required to consider and would ultimately need to endorse the rezoning of this property in
order for the Town Center application to be deemed complete.
As a redevelopment district and under a new zoning classification, the !and would be subject to
City Council Master Plan review and approval prior to issuance of building permits. In this
situation, Town Center Development is master planning the north half of the block, but the City
Council and HRA would wanfi to separately evaluate its Master Plan for the south half of the
block, at such time as they are ready for further development on this segment of Old Central.
Redevelopment Issues
The area along Old Central has been identified for redevelopment in the City's
Comprehensive Plan. As you might recall, in the early 1990's the Authority
contemplated redevelopment of the northeast quadrant of Old Central and Mississippi
Street, which included a small commercial strip center, automotive repair shop and gas
station. That plan never materialized, and the Authority did not pursue the project further.
In the late 1990s, the Authority contemplated the purchase of a vacant lot south of the
former Zap-It Welding shop at the southeast corner of the intersection. Due to poor soils
and possible contamination, the Authority decided not the purchase the site. Coincidentally, in
recent months staff has met with two developers about redevelopment of the southeast corner,
in fact the �atest proposal calls for the construction of 88 units of senior condominiums. A
: separate memo is attached concerning the details of this project.
Recommendation
Staff.recommends that the re-zoning of the west side of Old Central seems to be prudent given
the redevelopment interest in this area.

Maple Grove MN 55311
Dear Mr. Whinnery:
This letter is a follow-up to the discussion we had yesterday regarding your proposed
development on the corner of Mississippi Street and Central Avenue. Due to the
necessity of acquisition of right-of-way along both County Roads, the Sandee's
restaurant site will become non-conforming. The following is what the City Code states
regarding non-conforming structures:
C. No structure shall be erected, converted, enlarge, reconstructed or altered, and no structure
or land shall be used for any purpose or in any manner which is not in conformity with the
provisions of this Chapter.
3. NONCONFORMING USES AND STRUCTURES
A. Any structure or use lawfully existing upon the effective date of this Chapter may be continued
after such date except as hereinafter specified or as allowed under special district requirements.
B. Nothing in this Chapter shall prevent the upgrading of a nonconforming structure to a safe
condition when said structure is declared unsafe by the City, provided the necessary repairs shall
not constitute more than fifty percent(50%) of the fair market value of such structure.
C. Whenever the nonconforming use of a structure is changed to a use permitted in a more
restricted district, such use shall not thereafter be changed to a use permitted in a less restricted
district.
D. Whenever a lawful nonconforming structure is damaged by fire, flood, explosion, earthquake,
tornado, riot, or act of God, it may be reconstructed and used as before if it is reconstructed within
twelve (12) months after such calamity, except if the damage to the building or structure is fifty
percent (50%) or more of its fair market value, as determined by the City, in which case the
reconstruction shall be for a use in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter.
Whenever a lawful nonconforming use of a structure or land is abandoned for a period of twelve
(12) months, any future use of said structure or land shall be in conformity with the provisions of
this Chapter.
E. Whenever a lawful nonconforming use of a structure or land is abandoned for a period of twelve
(12) months, any future use of said structure or land shall be in conformity with the provisions of
- this Chapter.
Town Center Development
September 30, 2003
Page 2
F. Any nonconforming use shall not be moved to another part of the parcel cf land upon which the
same was conducted at the time of the adoption of this Chapter.
G. Any structure which will under this Chapter become nonconforming but for which a building permit
has been lawfully granted prior to the effective date of this Chapter or of amendments thereto,
may be completed in accordance with the approved plans: provided construction is started within
six (6) months of the effective date of this Chapter or amendments thereof and continues to
completion within two (2) years. Such structure shall thereafter be a legal nonconforming
structure.
H. Normal maintenance of a building or other structure containing or related to a lawful
nonconforming use is permitted, inciuding necessary nonstructural repairs and incidental
alterations which do not extend or intensify the nonconforming use.
I. Alterations may be made to a building containing lawfui nonconforming residential units when they
wiil improve the livability thereof, provided they will not increase the number of dwelling units or
size of the building.
J. The provisions herein for the continuance of nonconforming uses shall not prevent or interfere
with action that may be taken to abate any nuisance in any manner provided by law.
K. Any structure or any portion of a structure which is situated unlawfully within a public street or
alley or other public way or thoroughfare, is hereby declared to be a nonconforming use, whether
or not its use is othen�vise in conformity with the regulations of the district in which said structure is
located. Any such structure shall be subject to any and all applicable regulations herein for
nonconforming uses except in the event the City Council shall require removal of the structure or
portion thereof for a public purpose in which case such requirement shall prevail.
L. The provisions of this Chapter shall pertain to all lawful nonconforming uses or structures as
applicable and specifically to the performance standards outlined in the established districts.
As the Code states, a non-conforming structure can't be rebuilt if the damage is beyond
50% of the property's fair market value. City Staff has further evaluated the non-
conformity issue and suggests that you consider alternatives for the restaurant
including, but not limited to, reconstruction of a restaurant elsewhere on the site or
including a restaurant within your new complex.
This letter serves to inform you of the non-conformity and what that may mean to your
development. If you have any questions, please feel-free to contact me at 763-572-
3595.
Sincerely, , �

OVERVIEW
The requests:
Town Center Development, LLC, is requesting two separate land use actions from the
City of Fridley in order to construct 55 senior owner-occupied condominium units at
6490 Central Avenue. The two actions being requested are a Plat and a Rezoning,
both of which will be examined individually in this report.
A Plat is being requested to create two new parcels, from 1282 Mississippi Street,
currently Tamarisk Resources, and 6490 Central Avenue, currently Sandee's and the
vacant lot south of it. Sandee's Restaurant will occupy one parcel and the other parcel
will allow for the construction of the 55 senior condominiums.
The petitioner is also requesting a rezoning for the west side of Central Avenue
between Mississippi Street and E. Moore Lake Drive. Currently, there is a mixture of
commercial and industrial zonings and the petitioner is seeking to rezone the entire
block to S-2 Redevelopment District The owners of Advance Companies, Ziebart, and
the Housing and Redevelopment Authority have agreed to the rezoning request.

Proposed Project:
Town Center Development, LLC, is proposing to construct a 4-story 55-unit senior
condominium complex south of Sandee's Restaurant. Sandee's Restaurant will remain,
but will be under new ownership. The proposed 55 units will be owner-occupied and
comprised of 2 bedroom units. Thirty-one of the units will be 1,138 square feet, 8 of the
units will be 1,185 square feet, and the remaining 16 units will be 1,255 square feet in
size. The development will include 51 underground parking stalls and 4 garage stalls
and additional surFace parking. A storm pond will be located on the south end of the
project, with a trail system and landscaping surrounding the property.

SITE HISTORY
In 1991, Tom Brickner requested a rezoning of the vacant property located south of
Sandee's Restaurant and west of Central Avenue from C-1, Local Business, and C-2,
General Business, to R-3, General Multiple Family Dwelling in order to construct a 48
unit, three story apartment building. This rezoning request was similar to the one
before us today; however, it requested a rezoning to R-3, Multi-Family and was
essentially an island of R-3 zoning, surrounded by commercial and industrial properties.
Ultimately, it was denied based on the fact that it was spot zoning.

Zoning Map—Shows mix of zoning and properties to be replatted and rezoned.
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. State Statute gives the City
the authority to "rezone" property from one designated use to another, so long as the
zoning is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan was
developed with resident input taken from several meetings held between 1998 and
2000 and is a `�oo/intended fo help guide future growfh and development of the
community...lt is a p/an because it contains goa/s, policies and strategies that all work
together, looking to the future and working towards achieving a community wide vision':
In order for a rezoning to be viewed favorably, it must be in line with the City's vision
laid out in the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed senior owner-occupied condominium complex and rezoning of the
property meet several of the objectives the residents of Fridley identified in the visioning
session for the Comprehensive Plan. The area of Old Central between Mississippi
Street and Rice Creek Road was identified as an area for future redevelopment.
Redevelopment is described in the Comprehensive Plan as a form of community
revitalization that transforms undesirable elemenfs into desirable elements fhat reflect
the community collective vision. The purpose of redevelopment is to provide the
opportunity for more e�cient/and uses and eliminate ine�cient/and uses and under
utilized parcels. Redevelopment can also provide an opportunity to build new facilities,
meet current market demands and desires of the City, and eliminate incompatible land
uses. All the above purposes of redevelopment have the potential of being met with the
rezoning of these properties.
The Comprehensive Plan specifically states that for this portion of Old Central,
"consideration should be made to replacing the current mix of single-family residential
and commercial uses with higher density residential development that together with the
health club may serve as an attractive residential/ocation for move-up housing".
The Comprehensive Plan also states that for projects in these redevelopment areas
requiring rezoning that the S-2 zoning designation "wou/d be the appropriate Zoning
district to impfement for the redevelopment project. The intent of the districf is to
provide the City with site plan review authority fo determine if the proposed project
meets the goa/s and objectives of the Cify's Comprehensive and Redevelopment
Plans".
The Comprehensive Plan, in both the Future Land Use & the Housing chapters,
addresses the desire for a variety of housing types in a number of goals listed below.
• Ensure that adequate opportunities exist for the development of a variety of
housing types at a range of affordability levels including low, low-moderate and
high cost housing to meet the life-cycle needs of Frid/ey residents.
• Create sustainab/e, se/f-reliant, mixed-use and mixed-income neighborhoods
that contribute positively to fhe quality of life and image of Fridley.
• Ensure a variety of housing types for peop/e in all stages of the life cycle.
• Strengthen neighborhoods and improve upon the quality of the Cify's housing
stock.
• Diversify the housing supp/y to include move up housing both in the form of
rental and owner occupied housing.
As Fridley's residents continue to age, demand will increase for "empty nester" and
senior housing. There will be an increased demand for senior rental, senior owned
condominium/town homes, and assisted living facilities. The proposed project, 55
senior owner-occupied condominium units, will meet some of the current demand for
those seniors seeking alternatives to their current housing type.
To avoid spot zoning and achieve the Comprehensive Plan's goal for this area, the
petitioner has received permission from Advance Companies, Ziebart, and the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority to request the rezoning from their current zoning
designations to the S-2, Redevelopment District.
Plat Request#03-08
Town Center Development, LLC, is seeking to replat the properties located at 1282
Mississippi Street and 6490 Central Avenue to create two separate lots. One of the
newly created lots will accommodate the Sandee's Restaurant, and the other will be
used to allow for the construction of a 55-unit owner occupied senior condominium
development.
The property at 1282 Mississippi Street is currently zoned C-1, Local Business. The
existing building was constructed in 1952 and is currently being occupied by Tamarisk
Resources. The property at 6490 Central Avenue has a split zoning of C-1, Local
Business and C-2, General Business. Sandee's Restaurant occupies the northeast
corner of the site and the remainder of the property is vacant.
The proposed replat will consist of two lots; Lot #1 and Lot #2, Block 1, Town Center
Development. Rezoning a property to S-2, Redevelopment District allows for the
maximum flexibility for a redevelopment project; however, City staff asked the petitioner
to design their project to try to meet the zoning classification codes most similar to their
� . .
intended use. The proposed Lot #1 will accommodate Sandee's restaurant.
Restaurants are typically zoned C-2, General Business. Proposed Lot#1 is 24,525
square feet in size, which exceeds the minimum lot area requirement for the C-2,
General Business District. Proposed Lot#1 also meets all the parking requirements for
size and number of parking stalls required for a restaurant use.
Anoka County has had the opportunity to review the proposed project and has stated
that additional right-of-way on Central Avenue and Mississippi Street will be required for
future reconstruction purposes. They anticipate that a 120 ft. right-of-way corridor will
be required for both Central Avenue/Mississippi Street intersections in order to provide
the necessary turn lanes for future safety and operational purposes. The County
assumes when the Central Avenue/Mississippi Street intersection is reconstructed, it
would be centered in the 120 ft. right-of-way corridor. Consequently, roadway right-of-
way dedication needs for this site are 27-30 ft. adjacent to Mississippi Street and 10 ft.
adjacent to Central Avenue. Therefore, the County is requesting that at this time, both
of the right-of-ways be dedicated. Due to the necessity of the right-of-way acquisition
along both County Roads, the Sandee's restaurant building will be less than 1 ft. from
the north property line, 3 ft. from the east property line, and the parking setback will be
5 feet from the north property line. The additional land acquisition will also require the
petitioner to remove his existing patio area on the north side of the building. As stated
above, due to the flexibility allowed in the S-2, Redevelopment district, the diminished
setbacks can be recognized under this rezoning master plan approval.

The proposed Lot #2 is 126,075 square feet (2.89 acres) in size. The petitioner is
proposing to construct 55 senior owner occupied condominium units. The development
will include 51 underground parking stalls and 4 garage stalls located at surface level.
Because of the underground parking and the high water table in this area, the height of
the building will be 51 feet at the midspan. The parking setback will be 10 feet from the
property line on the east side of the property, due to the additional right-of-way being
acquired by the County.
TRAFFIC
Staff utilized a number of sources to determine the possible impacts that 55 senior
owner occupied condominium units may have on the local traffic patterns. In addition to
discussions with Jane Pemble, Anoka County Traffic Engineer, staff examined the
Institute of Traffic Engineer's Trip Generation, consulted the Transportation chapter of
the City's Comprehensive Plan, and reviewed the traffic study supplied by Loucks &
Associates.
Anoka County
City Staff contacted Jane Pemble, Traffic Engineering Manager at Anoka County, who
stated that currently the County has no plans or allocated funding to reconstruct,
provide safety improvements, or signalize the Central Avenue/Mississippi Street
intersection. Political and social pressures may determine when the intersection is re-
worked. She also stated that it is not clear whether or not this development will have a
significant impact on traffic volumes and/or turning movements. In order to determine
the impacts, a traffic study for this particular intersection will need to be done.
Institute of Traffic Engineer's (ITE) Trip Generation
The 4th Edition of ITE's Trip Generation manual does not have a specific category for
SENIOR RESIDENTIAL TOWNHOMES. As a result, Staff reviewed the traffic
generation numbers for RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS. The RESIDENTIAL
CONDOMINIUMS are not age specific, meaning that the numbers provided include
persons of all ages and family sizes living in condominium style housing. As seniors
may have very different driving habits (ie. may be retired and rarely drive, or choose to
drive at the least busy times of day) the numbers presented by the ITE Trip Generation
manual may be viewed as a worse-case scenario for the number of trips to be
generated by the proposed development.
The ITE Trip Generation manual states that for residential condominiums, each unit
generates 5.85 trips / day. A trip means any vehicle entering or leaving the complex.
For example, leaving for work & then returning from work would count as 2 trips. Given
the 55 units, it would be expected that a total of 322 vehicles would enter or leave the
complex during the course of a day. When the data is further analyzed, by time, the
impact of these vehicles on the surrounding roadways is negligible. During the morning
rush hours of 7-9AM, an additional 24.5 vehicles are entering or leaving the neighboring
roadway (Old Central) over the finro-hour timeframe. During the afternoon rush hours of
4-6PM, an additional 30 vehicles enter into or leave from the complex. The following
table summarizes what the ITE Trip Generation manual states a residential
condominium complex generates for traffic during peak rush hours.
ITE PEAK HOUR TRIPS/UNIT
TIME # of Tri s / Unit # of Units Total Vehicle Trips
7-9 AM .446 / Unit 55 Units 24.5 Tri s
4-6 PM .561 / Unit 55 Units 30 Tri s
Comprehensive Plan —Transportation Chapter
The City's Comprehensive Plan indicated that in 2001, the portion of Old Central
adjacent to the proposed senior condominiums carried 8,000 vehicles per day and, at
this traffic level, was only carrying 57% of the traffic for which the roadway was
designed and constructed to function at a Level of Service (LOS) D. The
Comprehensive Plan anticipates Old Central carrying over 10,000 vehicles per day by
the year 2020, based upon increases in population for Fridley & surrounding
communities, as well as redevelopment and reinvestment within Fridley. At 10,000
vehicles / day, Old Central will be carrying 71% if the maximum amount of traffic for
which the roadway was designed.
Review of Loucks & Associates Traffic Analysis
Town Center Development hired the Engineering & Planning firm of Loucks &
Associates to perForm additional traffic analysis. The consultants viewed the numbers
for RETIREMENT COMMUNITY in the ITE Trip Generation manual and determined
that the proposed complex would generate a total of 165 trips per day. As the
condominiums are available for those over 55, a number of residents may still be
working and the retirement community numbers may be low. The true number of trips
per day likely falls between the 165 trips/day generated by a RETIREMENT
COMMUNITY and the 322 trips/day generated by the average RESIDENTIAL
CONDOMINIUM complex. A full copy of the consultant's report has been attached for
your review.

RE: Rezoning to S-2 District
Dear Mr. Bolin;
The purpose of this letter is to explain the reasons we feel that the
rezoning the site at the corner of Mississippi and old Central Ave. should be
changed from C2 & C3 to S2 is as follows:
1. The S2 district will allow for mixed uses and provide the area with
, more flexibility for redevelopment.
2. The area we are targeting has never been developed for just that
reason.
3. The need for development in this area is very apparent and will be
very compatible with the neighborhood and will help all the
businesses in the area.
4. With the senior home ownership building and remodeling of
Sandee's Restaurant, the area will take on a completely new look
and enhance this business area.
If there are any other questions that I can answer, please feel free to call me
at (763) 416-0002.
Yours truly,
,

RE: Traffic Study for Town Center Elderly Housing
�;' �
Fifty (50) units of senior housing are proposed on a parcel of land on�-the west side of Old
Central Avenue NE(County Road 35) south of Mississippi Street,(County Road 6/106)
in the City of Fridley. You have requested that a traffic study be conducted to determine
the impact of the proposed project on traffic levels in the area. As part of the study you
have requested that the impact on traffic levels also be determined if the site were used
for office rather than housing.
The following schematic shows Minnesota Department of Transportation average annual
daily traffic levels (AADT) for 2000 for each of the four legs of the intersection of Old
Central Avenue NE and Mississippi Street. The schematic also shows projected levels of
traffic and percentage increase in traffic if the site were used for 50 units of senior
housing and alternately 41,250 square feet of office space, the amount that could be
accommodated on the site.

RE: Proposed Site Plan-
Sandy's Restaurant�4c Senior Housin�
Dear Stacy,
We have reviewed the site plan for Sandy's Restaurant & Senior Housina, to be located in the S�V
quadrant of CSAH 35 (Central Ave.) and CSAH 6 (Mississippi St.) �vithin the City of Frid(ey, and I offer
the fullowinb comments.
Additional right-of-way on CSAH 3� and CSAH 6 will be required for future reconstruction purposes.
While other portions of CSAH 3� have been reconstructed within a 100ft corridor, it is anticipated that
a 120ft right-of-�vay corridor will be required for the CSAH 35/CSAH 6 intersection in order to
provide the necessary turn lanes for safety and operational purposes. At this point, it is assumed that
whenever the CSAH 35/CSAH 6 intersection is reconstructed in the future, it would be centered in the
120ft right-of-way corridor. Consequently, roadway right-of-�vay dedication needs for this site are 27-
30ft adjacent to CSAH 6, and lOft adjacent to CSAH 35. The right of access along CSAH 35 and
CSAH 6(with exceptions for approved access locations) shalt be dedicated to Anoka County.
With increasin� traffic volumes and conDestion, the importance for limited access to county highways
cann:,t be overstated. L::n:±:ng access is critical in minimizins highway congestion and is the single
most important factor in reducing accidents on highways. As proposed,there are two access points to
both CSAH 3� and CSAH 6,which is excessive for this site. The City should work with this developer
to reconfigure this site plan and limit the number of direct access points to the county highway system.
From a county highway perspective, it would seem reasonable to remove both access points on CSAH
6 and combine access on CSAH 35. For your consideration and use,we have prepared two sketches of
revised access concepts for this site, one involving right turn lane construction on SB CSAH 35, and
one without CSAH 35 turn lane construction. It is not clear if the proposed addition to this
development will have a significant impact on traffic volumes and/or turning movements on CSAH
35/CSAH 6. As noted above, Anoka County has no plans or allocated funding at this time to
reconstruct, provide safety improvements, or signalize the CSAH 35/CSAH 6 intersection. If the City
of Fridley is concerned about safety or operational issues on CSAH 35 and/or CSAH 6 in conjunction
with this development, the turn lane construction and/or intersection sianalization shall be completed
as a part of the adjacent development. If any such county hijhway improvements will be required for
Affirmative Action/ Equal Opportunity Employer
. �
this development, the design details, pavement sections and turn lane confi,urations shal( be reviewed
and approved by this department as a part of the permit process. It is our understandinQ that there are
also plans for another senior housina project in this area on the east side of CSAH 3�. Consequently,
the City should take into account the cumulative impacts of both developments and their resultant
impact on the safety and operations of CSAH 3� and CSAH 6, and base the decision for the
incorporation of improvements to either county hiah�vay on those anticipated resultant impacts.
Sivht corners in southwest quadrant of CSAH 6/CSAH 3� are deficient due to the existinQ buildina.
The site plan sho�vs no chanae to this structure. However, the owner should ensure that no new
obstructions are added to this corner. Please note that no plantings or business signs will be permitted
within the county right-of-way. Care must be exercised when locatin� si�ns/plantin�s/berms/ etc.
outside the county riyht-of-way, so as not to create si�ht obstructions.
Detailed drainage calculations must be submitted along �vith a grading and erosion control p(an that
delineates the draina�e areas for this site. The post-developed rate of discharge shall not esceed the
pre-uev�ioped rate o*cli�cnar�e zo:the l�i-Y"ear rrequei�:;y 5�orm, utiiizi�b fne "Ra�iona.e �ietnou-'of
design to determine the rate of discharge.
It should be noted that residential land use adjacent to highways usually results in complaints
rejarding traffic noise. Traffic noise at this location could exceed Noise Standards established by the
US Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency.
Anoka County policy regarding new developments adjacent to eYisting counry highways prohibits the
eYpenditure of highway funds for noise mitigation measures. The City and/or the Developer should
assess the noise situation and take any action deemed necessary to minimize associated impacts at this
site from any traffic noise.
A permit for work within the county right-of-way is required and must be obtained prior to the
commencement of construction. License Permit Bonding, methods of construction, design details for
turn lane construction, work zone traffic control, restoration requirements and follow-up inspections
are typical elements of the permitting process. Contact Roger Butler, Traffic Engineering
Coordinator, or Josie Scott, Permit Technician, for further information regarding the permit process.
Installation of permanent traffic control devices deemed necessary within the county right-of-way for
this proposed development will be coordinated, installed, and maintained by this department as part of
the permit process.
Thank you for the opportunity to_comment. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,

5. PUBLIC HEARING:
Consideration of a Rezoning, ZOA#03-03, by Town Center Development, LLC, to
rezone property from C-2, General Business, C-1, Local Business, M-1, Light Industrial,
and CR-1, General O�ce, to S-2, Redevelopment District, to accommodate
redevelopment, generally located at 1281 Mississippi Street NE, 6490, 6400, 6352, and
6300 Central Avenue NE, and 1271 East Moore Lake Drive NE
6. PUBLIC HEARING:
Consideration of a Plat, PS #03-08, by Town Center Development, LLC, to construct a
senior housing development, generally located at 1282 Mississippi Street NE and 6490
Central Avenue NE
MOTION by Mr. Kondrick, seconded by Ms. Johns, to open the public hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY AND THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 8:12 P.M.
Mr. Paul Bolin stated Town Center Development is requesting two tand use actions to construct
55 senior owner-occupied condominium units at 6490 Central Avenue. A plat is being requested
to create two new parcels from 1282 Mississippi Street (currently the Tamarisk House) and
6490 Central Avenue (currently Sandee's Restaurant), and the vacant lot just south of
Sandee's. Sandee's Restaurant will occupy one parcel, and the other parcel will allow for the
construction of the 55 senior owner-occupied condominiums
Mr. Bolin stated the petitioner is also requesting a rezoning for the west side of Central Avenue
between Mississippi Street and East Moore Lake Drive to S-2, Redevelopment District.
Currently, there is a mix of commercial and industrial zones. The owners of Advance
Companies, Ziebart, and the Housing 8� Redevelopment Authority have agreed to this rezoning
request.
Mr. Bolin stated Town Center Development is proposing to construct a 4-story, 55-unit senior
owner-occupied condominium complex south of Sandee's Restaurant. Sandee's Restaurant will
remain but will be remodeled. The proposed 55 2-bedroom units will be owner-occupied. Thirty-

Mr. Baiilie stated he had no problem with the stipulations; however, regar ing the parking stall
widths, he believed they are 9 feet wide on the plan.
Mr. Lee Coppy, Schoell & Madson, the civil engineer on the project, tated the parking stalis as
proposed on the submitted plan are 9 feet wide. The reason for th 9 foot vNide stalls is they
have a customer pickup area at the rear of the building so there ' no ►oading/unloading in the
front parking lot. Those front stalls would just be customer par � g.
Mr. Bolin stated the parking stalis need to be 10 feet wide. at is required by the City. He
believed that there is enough room on the site to accompli h adding one foot for every stall
width.
Mr. Michael Diem, Archnet, Inc., stated he is the arch' ect who prepared the site plan. By going
to 10 foot wide stalls, he believed they would lose 1 15 stalls. They would lose a partial stall on
every row, but they are pretty much maxed at 190 talls right now. So, going to 10 foot wide
stalls would bring them under the 189 parking sta requirement. Maybe there is a different
parking ratio than 140 that could be considered. ven if they lost 10 stalls, they believe they
would still have a lot more stalls than they nee . According to all the studies they.have done,
even 1 to 500 square feet would be adequat . How does the City want to handle-ti�is?
Mr. Bolin stated that since the building is i an industrial district, it may be possible to have
some 9 foot stalls on this site.
Mr. Kondrick stated the 9 foot wide sta s would be for employee parking. How many employees
will there be?
Mr. Diem stated that with total staff there would be around 80 employees. The retail store will
be open 10 a.m. —9 p.m. Monday through Friday, Saturday and Sunday hours are usually 10
a.m. to 6 p.m. The customer pic p would be operating every day. Deliveries would not be
every day. With a total of 80 e loyees, there would probably be around 50-60 at any one point
in time.
Mr. Diem stated that if they nly have to put in 10 foot wide stalls in the triangular area to the
east which is mostly custo er parking, and the rest can stay at 9 feet for the employees, they
may only lose about 5-8 s aces.
Mr. Bolin stated staff wil work with the petitioner on the parking stalls.

MOTION by Mr. qquist, seconded by Mr. Kondrick, to recommend to City Council approval of
Zoning Text Ame�dment, ZTA#03-01, by Furniture Outlets USA, Inc., Inc., to add language to
the code for furr��ture use parking requirement (to require a furniture store use to have one
parking stall for!every 400 square feet of showroom space), generally located at 5353 East

one of the units will be 1,138 square feet, eight of the units will be 1,185 square feet, and 16
units will be 1,255 square feet. The development will include 51 underground parking stalls, four
garage stalis, and additional surface parking. A storm pond will be located on the south end of
the project with a traii system and landscaping surrounding the property.
Mr. Bolin stated the outdoor dining portion of Sandee's will be removed. As part of the plat
request, Anoka County has requested that the petitioner give the Counry 30 feet of additionai
right-of-way along Mississippi Street and 10 feet of additional right-of-way along Central Avenue
for future improvements.
Mr. Bolin stated that in 1991, Tom Brickner requested a rezoning of the vacant property located
just south of Sandee's Restaurant and west of Central Avenue from C-1, Local Business, and
C-2, General Business, to R-3, General Multiple Family Dwelling, to allow multi-family dwellings.
That rezoning would have created a stand-alone island of R-3 zoning surrounded by
commercial and industrial properties. That request was denied based on the fact that it was spot
zoning.
Rezoninq
Mr. Bolin stated the petitioner is requesting a rezoning for the entire block on the west side of
Central Avenue between Mississippi Street and East Moore Lake Drive to S-1, Redevelopment
District. Of all the parcels, the only parcels that are proposed to be redeveloped are 1282
Mississippi Street and 6490 Central Avenue; the others will remain as they exist today.
Mr. Bolin stated the Ciry's Zoning Ordinance and official Zoning Map are the mechanisms that
help the City achieve the vision laid out in the Comprehensive Plan. The City has the authority
to rezone property from one designated use to another as long as the zoning is in conformance
with the Comprehensive Plan developed with resident input between 1998 and 2000. The
proposed senior owner-occupied condominium complex and rezoning meet several of the
objectives the residents of Fridley identified in the visioning sessions for the Comprehensive
Plan. The area of Central Avenue between Mississippi Street and Rice Creek Road was
identified as an area for future redevelopment.
Mr. Bolin stated the Comprehensive Plan specifically states that for this portion of Central,
"consideration should be made to replacing the current mix of single family residential and
commercial uses with higher density residential development that together with the health club
may serve as an attracfive residenfial location for move-up housing�'. Tk�e Comprehensive Plan
also states that for projects in these redevelopment areas, requiring rezoning to the S-2 zoning
designation "would be the appropriate zoning district fo implement for the redevelopment
project. The intent of the disfrict is to provided the City with site plan review autho�ity to
determine if the proposed project meets the goals and objectives of the City's Comprehensive
and Redevelopment Plans."
Mr. Bolin stated that as Fridley's residents continue to age, demand will increase for"empty
nester" and senior housing. The proposed project will meet some of the current demand for
those seniors seeking alternatives to their current housing types.
Mr. Bolin stated staff recommends approval of the rezoning request and the accompanying site
plan for the senior building and Sandee's site as the proposed rezoning is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan and provides additional housing opportunities for Fridley seniors. Staff
also recommends the following stipulations:
Planning Commission Meeting, November 5, 2003 Page 10
1. The property shall be developed in accordance with site plan, sheet C2-1 dated October
29, 2003, by Loucks McLagan Engineering firm.
2. The petitioner shall obtain all necessary permits prior to construction.
3. The petitioner shall meet the attached comments from the Fire Marshall.
4. The petitioner shall meet all building and ADA requirements.
5. Exterior remodeling plans for Sandee's shall be reviewed and approved by City staff prior
to issuance of a building permit.
6. The patio on the north side of Sandee's shall be removed prior to issuance of a building
permit for the senior complex.
7. The petitioner shall provide a clearance letter from the State Historical Preservation Office
prior to the demolition of the Tamarisk building.
8. The existing Sandee's signs in the right-of-way shall be removed prior to issuance of a
building permit.
9. No business signs shall be located within the County right-of-way. Any planting within the
right-of-way shall be approved by the County prior to planting.
10. The petitioner shall obtain a permit from Anoka County for any work done within the
County right-of-way.
11. Restoration of the bike path along Central Avenue will be required after completion of the
senior complex.
12. The petitioner shall identify the ponding area and provide easements for storm water run-
off and management.
13. A storm pond maintenance agreement must be filed prior to issuance of building permits.
14. The petitioner shall obtain any required NPDES permit and provide NURP ponding for
entire site.
15. The City Engineering staff shall review and approve a grading and drainage plan prior to
issuance of building permits.
16. The landscape plan shall be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to issuance of a
building permit.
17. The petitioner shall pay any required park dedication fees.
18. The petitioner shall provide the City with a copy of the buildings' association documents
prior to issuance of a building permit.
19. The building shall be restricted to seniors, and policies to do such shall be outlined in
association documents.
20. The petitioner shall provide proof that any existing wells or individual sewage treatment
systems located on the site are properly capped or removed.
21. The property owner of record at the time of building permit application shall pay all water
and sewer connection fees prior to issuance of a building permit.
22.The petitioner shall provide a traffic study that is approved by the County prior to issuance
of a building permit.
23. The petitioner shall be responsible for the cost of any tra�c improvements necessary to
accommodate the traffic generated by the development including signalization or other
improvements, if determined necessary to Anoka County.
24. A development agreement outlining the developer's obligation to install utilities, etc., will
be prepared by the City and shall be signed by the petitioner prior to final plat approval.
Plat
Mr. Bolin stated Town Center Development, LLC, is also requesting to replat the properties
located at 1282 Mississippi Street and 6490 Central Avenue to create the separate lots
necessary to accommodate Sandee's Restaurant and the senior condominium development.
Proposed Lot#1 where Sandee's is located is currently zoned C-1, Local business, and C-2,
General Business, and is 24,500 square feet. That exceeds the minimum lot area for the C-2,
� Planning Commission Meeting. November 5, 2003 Page 11
General Susiness district. Sandee's lot would also meet all the parking requirements for size
and for a restaurant use.
Mr. Bolin stated that in terms of the plat, Anoka County has reviewed the proposed project and
has asked for additional right-of-way along Central Avenue and Mississippi Street. They figure a
120 foot right-of-way will be required for both Central Avenue and Mississippi Street at the
intersections to provide the necessary turn lanes for future safety and operational purposes.
Consequently, the dedication needs for this site are 30 feet adjacent to Mississippi Street and
10 feet adjacent to Central Avenue. The County is requesting that those rights-of-way be
dedicated on any plat. Due to the necessity of the right-of-way acquisition along both County
roads, the Sandee's Restaurant building wiil be less than one foot from the north property line,
three feet from the east parking line, and the parking setback will be five feet from the north
property line. The additional land acquisition will require the petitioner to remove the existing
patio/outdoor dining area from the north side of the building. Due to the flexibility allowed in the
S-2 district, the diminished setbacks can be recognized as part of the rezoning master plan
approval.
Mr. Bolin stated Lot#2 is 126,075 square fset in size. The petitioner is proposing to construct
the 55 senior owner-occupied condominium units on that site. Because of the underground
parking and the high water table in the area, the height of the building will be 51 feet at the
r�idspan. The parking setback will be 10 feet from the property line on the east side of the
property, due to the additional right-of-way being acquired by the County.
Mr. Bolin stated that regarding traffic, staff had discussions with Jane Pemble, Anoka County
Traffic Engineering Manager, examined the Institute of Traffic Engineer's Trip Generation,
consulted the Transportation chapter of the City's Comprehensive Plan, and reviewed the traffic
study supplied by Loucks & Associates.
Mr. Bolin stated Jane Pemble has told City staff that the County currently has no plans or has
allocated any funding to reconstruct, provide safety improvements, or signalize the Central
Avenue/Mississippi Street intersection. Political and social pressures may determine when the
intersection is reworked, and it is not clear whether or not this proposed development will have a
significant impact on traffic volumes and/or turning movements.
Mr. Bolin stated the Institute of Traffic Engineer's Trip Generation manual does not have a
specific category for senior residential townhomes. Staff reviewed the generation numbers for
residential condominiums which are not age specific. Seniors may have very different driving
habits so the Trip Generation manual should be viewed as a worse-case scenario in the
number of trips generated by the proposed development.
Mr. Bolin stated the Trip Generation manual states that each unit in a residential condominium
generates 5.85 trips per day. (A trip means any time a vehicle enters or leaves the site.)With 55
units, a total of 322 vehicles could enter or leave the complex per day. In analyzing the data by
time, the impact of these vehicles on surrounding roadways is negligible. During the morning
rush hours of 7-9 a.m., an additional 24.5 vehicles are entering or leaving Central Avenue from
the proposed senior condominium development. During the afternoon rush hours of 4-6 p.m., an
additional 30 vehicles are entering or leaving the proposed senior condominium development.
Again, these numbers are not age specific.
Mr. Bolin stated that in 2001 in the Transportation Chapter of the City's Comprehensive Plan,
the portion of Central Avenue adjacent to the proposed senior condominium development
carried 8,000 vehicles per day and, at this traffic level, was only carrying 57% of the traffic for
Planning Commission Meeting, November 5, 2003 Page 12 �
which the roadway was designed to function at a Level of Service D. D is considered the middie
ground. The Comprehensive Plan anticipates Central Avenue carrying over 10,000 vehicles per
day by 2020, based upon increases in population for Fridley and surrounding communities, as
well as redevelopment and reinvestment within Fridley. At 10,000 vehicles per day, Central
Avenue would be carrying 71% of the maximum amount of traffic for which the roadway was
designed.
Mr. Bolin stated Town Center DevelopmenYs engineering consultants, Loucks &Associates,
provided the City with numbers for RETIREMENT COMMUNITY out of the Trip Generation
manual and determined that a retirement complex would generate approximately 165 trips per
day. As the condominiums are available for those over 55, a number of residents may still be
working and the retirement community numbers may be low. The true number of trips per day
more likely falls between the 165 trips per day and the 322 trips per day.
Mr. Bolin stated that City staff recommends approval of the preliminary plan with the following
stipulations:
1. The property shall be developed in accordance with site plan, sheet C2-1 dated October
29, 2003, by Loucks McLagan Engineering firm.
2. The petitioner shall obtain all necessary permits prior to construction.
3. The petitioner shall meet the attached comments from the Fire Marshall.
4. The petitioner shall meet all building and ADA requirements.
5. Exterior remodeling plans for Sandee's shall be reviewed and approved by City staff
prior to issuance of a building permit.
6. The patio on the north side of Sandee's shall be removed prior to issuance of a building
permit for the senior complex.
7. The petitioner shall provide a clearance letter from the State Historical Preservation
Office prior to the demolition of the Tamarisk building.
8. The existing Sandee's signs in the right-of-way shall be removed prior to issuance of a
building permit.
9. No business signs shall be located within the Counry right-of-way. Any planting within
the right-of-way shall be approved by the County prior to planting.
10. The petitioner shall obtain a permit from Anoka County for any work done within the
County right-of-way.
11. Restoration of the bike path along Central Avenue will be required after completion of
the senior complex.
12. The petitioner shall identify ponding area and provide easements for storm water run-off
and management.
13. A storm pond maintenance agreement must be filed prior to issuance of building permits.
14. The petitioner shall obtain any required NPDES permit and provide NURP ponding for
entire site.
15. The City Engineering staff shall review and approve grading and drainage plan prior to
issuance of building permits.
16. The landscape plan shall be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to issuance of a
building permit.
17. The petitioner shall pay any required park dedication fees.
18. The petitioner shall provide the City with a copy of the buildings' association documents
prior to issuance of a building permit.
19. The building shall be restricted to seniors, and policies to do such shall be outlined in
association documents.
20. The petitioner shall provide proof that any existing wells or individual sewage treatment
systems located on the site are properly capped or removed.
Planning Commission Meeting, November 5, 2003 Page 13
21. The prope�ty owner of record at the time of building permit application shall pay all water
and sewer connection fees prior to issuance of a building permit.
22. The petitioner shall provide a traffic study that is approved by the County prior to
issuance of a building permit.
23. The petitioner shall be responsible for the cost of any traffic improvements necessary to
accommodate the traffic generated by the development including signalization or other
improvements, if determined necessary by Anoka County.
24. A development agreement outlining the developer's obligation to install utilities, etc., will
be prepared by the City and shall be signed by the petitioner prior to final plat approval.
Mr. Saba stated 120 feet of right-of-way is needed by the County in the future, 30 feet of which
will come from the petitioner's property now. Where will the rest of the right-of-way come from,
and will that be tied to stipulation #23
Mr. Bolin stated any additional right-of-way acquisition outside of this site would not be related
to stipulation #23. That stipulation gives the County a lot of discretion to what they would require
if these 55 units gravely impact that intersection. And, yes, additional right-of-way could be
taken from the petitioner somewhere down the road.
Mr. Saba stated that the bikeway/walkway patfi is going to be restored after construction. Will
that right-of-way impact the bikeway/walkway path in any way?
Mr. Bolin stated the bikeway/walkway is currently located within the right-of-way, and the
additional 10 feet should accommodate a bikeway/walkway or sidewalk in addition to whatever
is needed for an additional turn lane.
Mr. Saba asked if the additional right-of-way takes into account any future or unknown plans for
any future development. If there is more development in the future, will more right-of-way be
needed?
Mr. Bolin stated that any time the County has an opportunity to get additional right-of-way for
something that may happen in the future, they can obtain that property now by demanding it
through a plat.
Mr. Saba asked Mr. Bolin to explain S-2 zoning to the Commission members and those in the
audience.
Mr. Bolin stated the S-2 zoning district itself functions similar to what some cities refer to as a
"planned unit development" where, rather than applying for a strict rezoning, there is some "give
& take" through the S-2 rezoning. The S-2 allows for some flexibility in approving a master plan
for the site and allows a lot of discretion for the Planning Commission and City Council in
approving that master plan.
Mr. Kondrick asked where other S-2 zoning has been used in the City of Fridley.
Mr. Bolin stated that S-2 zoning has been used for the Medtronic international headquarters, the
Gateway East project, and Christenson Crossing.
Ms. Johns stated that when an area has become redeveloped within an S-2 district, does the
district ever become rezoned to what the development actually is?
Planning Commission Meeting, November 5, 2003 Page 14
Mr. Bolin stated the area stays S-2. In the event a building is proposed to be used for a different
use, the developer would need to come before the Planning Commission and City Councii with
a master plan amendment. At that time, the Planning Commission would hold a public hearing,
take input from the public, and then the Planning Commission and, ultimately, the City Council
would determine if that change should be allowed to happen in that S-2 district.
Mr. Saba asked if the Tamarisk house is on the National Historic Register.
Mr. Bolin stated City staff has requested the petitioner to get a letter from the Historic
Preservation Officer for clearance to tear down the house. The petitioner has to prove to the
City that it is not listed on any historic register, and that the building should be saved.
Mr. Saba asked if there was any wisdom in demolishing a site that is a historic landmark in
Fridley. Maybe an effort should have been made to preserve that piece of property.
Mr. Bolin stated that would be a policy decision that would need to come from the Planning
Commission or the City Councit.
Mr. Richard Whinnery stated he is one of the owners of Town Center Development.
Ms. Savage asked Mr. Whinnery if he had any problems with the stipulations.
Mr. Whinnery stated he did not. To add some information on the Tamarisk house, they found
out it was moved to its current site. It wasn't originally built there. They do not plan to tear it
down; it will be moved, possibly within the City of Fridley.
Mr. John Klick, Klick Interarch Design, the architect for the project, showed a power point
presentation of what the development would look like.
Mr. Kondrick asked approximately how far the condominium building is from Central Avenue?
Mr. Klick stated it is about 80 feet from Central Avenue.
Ms. Paula Granroos, 1114 63�d Avenue, stated everyone has talked about the intersections of
Mississippi Street, Central Avenue, and Rice Creek Road, but no one has said anything about
how this development will affect the two little blocks off Mississippi Street—Dellwood Drive,
Pierce Street, and 63�d Avenue. She is really concerned about additional traffic on her street,
63`d Avenue. At the west end of 63�d Avenue is the Fridley liquor store, and they already have a
lot of traffic going to the liquor store. So, she is concerned about how this new development will
affect the traffic on these streets.
Mr. Tim Byrne, 6053 Woody Lane, stated he was initially worried about the traffic. To go to work
in the morning, he has to take a left from Hillcrest Drive onto Central Avenue which can be
dangerous. Because there are no tra�c lights and because the traffic is constant, it is very
difficult. It would be beneficial to have some kind of controlled traffic light at Rice Creek Road &
Central or Mississippi Street & Central, or perhaps even at Gardena and Central to break up the
traffic. The parking lot at Moore Lake Beach is also a parking lot for Totino Grace students.
Students park there and walk up Gardena to the school. He realized these are county roads, but
why couldn't the City put on a little bit of pressure for some signalization?
Mr. Byrne stated there is another developer buying properties along 64th Avenue, Central
Avenue, and Mississippi Street. So, this proposed development is just the beginning.
. Planning Commission Meeting, November 5, 2003 Page 15
Mr. Byrne stated that with the S-2 zoning, what is to stop the owners of the properties south of
the proposed development from seliing their properties for another 100 unit development. The
HRA property is not designated for any purpose at this time. Just with the proposed project
alone, imagine in a neighborhood of single family homes that every house is turned into a 4-
plex. That is the kind of traffic they would have. Even though staff is saying that the affects of
traffic is negligible, common sense says differently.
Mr. Byrne stated that regarding the parking, what senior is going to want to scrape ice off his/her
car? The proposed one covered parking stall per unit is unacceptable. He has contacted other
senior developments, and the average is 1.5 cars per unit. His parents have three vehicles, and
they would not move out of their home into something like this. This may or may not be a good
development for seniors. The median price for a Fridley home right now is $160,000, $10,000
below the starting cost of these units. If Fridley seniors are looking to move out of their homes,
half of them could not afford these units.
Mr. Byrne asked why the City did not go with the regular procedure of having the developer go
to the HRA and ask them if they would like to participate in this project and also invite the public
for input?
Mr. Bolin stated he believed Mr. Byrne had already had a conversation with Scott Hickok,
Community Development Director. He could also contact William Burns or Grant Fernelius, staff
directors for the HRA. The HRA is not endorsing this rezoning; the HRA has simply stated that
they do not have an objection to their land being included in the S-2 zoning. It is not necessary
for the HRA or other property owners to participate. The Council can rezone all these properties
with or without their permission.
Mr. Byrne suggested that the Planning Commission continue this public hearing until such a
time that the HRA can have a public hearing and hear from the neighbors.
Mr. Mark Schwartz, 1372 64th Avenue, stated he has a concern about drainage in this area.
They have had water drainage problems in the past. A storm sewer project was done that
helped the north side of 64th Avenue; but, unfortunately, when the credit union building was
built, that complicated the problems. Every time it rains, the HRA property gets about 6-8 inches
of water on it. He realized the developer will have to have a drainage plan, but the credit union
had a drainage plan, too, and that didn't work.
Mr. Schwartz stated he is totally against the S-2 rezoning, because of more similar development
that can happen in the future. He believed they should be very careful of this.
Ms. Carrie Crandall, 6411 Pierce Street, stated her house will back up to the proposed
development. How far away from her property line is this building going to be? Will there be
some privacy fencing, and how high will that fencing be?
Mr. Bolin stated the building itself will be 50 feet from the westerly property line, and a 7 foot
high screening fence is required.
A resident at 6423 Pierce Street stated he lives right behind the proposed building. He
purchased this property because of the beautiful back yard. He is also concerned about the
privacy of their back yards. How can a 7 foot high fence provide privacy from a 50-foot high
building? He is opposed to this project.
Plannin�Commission Meeting, November 5, 2003 Page 16 -
Mr. Tom Myhra, 6360 Able Street, stated he is the chair of the Concerned Citizens of Fridley.
He is also the past president of the Fridley Historical Society. As far as he knows, no one
notified the Historical Society that a historical building could be demolished. He will bring that to
the Society's attention. Could that be a stipulation that the Tamarisk building not be demolished
and not be moved out of the City? He stated the Concerned Citizens of Fridley organization is
very concerned about the goals of the Comprehensive Plan and if the goals truly represent the
wishes of the people. He believed this constant move to make the City more dense in
population is not particularly good. He stated the Concerned Citizens of Fridley organization is
in the process of amending the Housing section of the Comprehensive Plan to what they believe
is more what the City wants.
Mr. Myhra stated everyone has talked about this as senior housing, except the architect's
sketch said "muiti-family" housing. That leads him to believe that once the property is rezoned to
S-2, there would be nothing except the Council to prevent this being made into regular mu(ti-
family housing. The proposal is for two bedrooms, and he would guess that most retired couples
are not going to want two bedrooms.
Mr. Kurt Olson, 1385 64th Avenue, stated he has lived in Fridley since 1966. He does not want
to see Fridley become multi-housing. Even though this is senior housing, he is still concemed
about multi-housing and how it can become rundown. He and his wife are in the process of
putting about $100,000 into remodeling their home. The last thing they want to see at the end of
their street is a 4-story building. That is not why he purchased this lot. They also don't want the
extra traffic.
Mr. Jim Rusinak, 6412 Pierce Street, stated the view from his front wi�dow now is very nice. He
does not want to see a 4-story building there either. They like the natural aesthetics of the
woods. Was the 2001 traffic report done before or after Medtronic was developed and in full
operation? Since Medtronic, there has been a big increase in tra�c on Central and Mississippi.
The study that says these roads are underutilized may be antiquated due to the traffic
generated by Medtronic.
Ms. Andrea Olson, 1385 64th Avenue, stated they have a beautiful wooded one-acre lot in a
quiet neighborhood with a lot of traffic on Central Avenue. Mr. Rusinak is right; Medtronic has
greatly impacted traffic on Central Avenue. They don't need any traffic lights; they just need to
keep the traffic down. She can't imagine adding more vehicles. She was concerned because the
S-2 zoning just seems too open. What will happen to the other properties around this proposed
development, especially the new housing development that is coming that will be in her back
yard? Having this kind of development in a basically single family neighborhood just seems
crazy.
Ms. Jean Schwartz, 1372 64th Avenue, stated she has a major concern with the S-2 zoning. Her
understanding of zoning is that when someone comes to the City with a specific zoning request,
the burden of proof is on the developer of why the property should be rezoned. A development
can more easily be denied than if the property is already zoned for that development. The S-2
zoning leaves them much more wide open. It makes more things allowable than would be
otherwise allowed. It is shifting the burden of proof away from the developer, and now the City
has to prove why it shouldn't go there.
Ms. Schwartz stated she did not think there is any way the City can guarantee 100% that this
would be senior housing only. What happens if the units are not sold? Will they become rental?
Right now two bedroom units in Fridley have the highest vacancy rates than they have in years.
_ Planning Commission Meeting, November 5, 2003 Page 17
She did not think a lot of seniors will be able to afford these units. Fridley is not a high income
community. She also did not think a 4-story building is going to fit very well in this neighborhood.
Ms. Betty Carland, 6416 Deliwood Drive, stated she has lived here since 1965. They have seen
the traffic grow every year, and it is getting pretty bad. With this new development, they are
going to see more traffic, congestion, a landlocked area of small homes, and real estate values
going down. They do need stoplights, because stop signs do not stop the traffic. She also
agreed with what has been said about putting a tall building in the center of a single family area.
Mr. John Klick, Interarch Design, stated he would like to address the concerns about more
development in the S-2 zoning south of their proposed development in the future. In this area, if
another developer wanted to make a change in that S-2 area, that developer would have to
come before the Planning Commission and City Council for a master plan amendment, so it is
doubtful that more higher density housing would be allowed in there.
Mr. Klick stated there was some concern about whether this would actually be a condominium
project, or could it become a rental project? He stated that one of the stipulations recommended
by staff is that the condominium documents be submitted to the City prior to the issuance of a
building permit. The condominium documents would contain the information with respect to the
age requirements, owner-occupied units, etc. However, if a developer came to the City with a
propose� 45--50 square foot office building that would generate an additional 175-200 cars for
this area, that would be allowed with the existing C-1 and C-2 zoning. That type of project would
create more density, more cars, more trips per day, and would create a bigger impact on
Central Avenue than the senior condominiums.
Mr. Klick stated there was a question about when a traffic study was completed, before or after
Medtronic's completion. He would like to reiterate that those numbers indicated that the capacity
today is 57%, and in 2020. it would be 71%. That is without any highway improvements.
Mr. Klick stated that one citizen stated that other senior developments were providing only 1.5
cars per unit. He stated they are providing 2 cars per unit in this development.
Mr. Saba asked if there is anything that can be done to address the lack of privacy that some of
these homeowners are concerned about, in terms of their back yards. Now, they have trees in
their back yards, but soon they will have 4 stories of people who can look down into their yards.
Mr. Klick stated there is a 50-foot wide strip between the condominiums and the neighbors'
properties. The sanitary sewer comes through there. He definitely believed there are some
landscaping materials that could be used in the back areas.
MOTION by Mr. Oquist, seconded by Mr. Kondrick, to close the public hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 9:35 P.M.
Mr. Dunham stated that if a commercial building was built under the present zoning, what is the
maximum height that building could be?
Mr. Bolin stated that in a C-2 district, the height limit is 60 feet.
Planning Commission Meeting, November 5, 2003 Pa e 18
Mr. Saba suggested adding a stipulation on landscaping/screening that wouid inciude some
piants and adult trees along the back property line to address the privacy concerns. That is his
biggest concern with this development.
Mr. Kondrick stated this looks like a nice development. He did not think the traffic is going to be
that much of an issue considering that this is for seniors, 55 and older. He wili vote in favor of
the development.
Mr. Saba asked if the City is setting any kind of precedence for future units that will be difficult to
address in the future for other housing developments.
Mr. Bolin stated, no, each project has to stand on its own merits.
Ms. Johns stated one citizen expressed concern over the drainage issue. If the proposed
ponding is inadequate, will anything be done to fix it?
Mr. Bolin stated the City's engineers have worked extensively with the petitioner's engineers,
and the petitioner's engineers have worked with the Rice Creek Watershed District to size the
pond accordingly. There should actually be excess storage capacity within this storm pond to
handle the rain events for which t was designed. There is an outlet on the storm pond that puts
the water into the City storm sewer. The storm pond has been reviewed extensively and will be
reviewed several more times before building permits are issued to make sure it will hold the
needed capacity. In addition, there is a stipulation for a storm pond maintenance agreement. If
the City sees a problem and the storm pond is not being maintained properly, the City will fix it
and assess the petitioner accordingly.
Mr. Saba proposed the following wording for a new stipulation #25 regarding the screening
between the neighbors and the development:
"The petitioner shall work with City staff and the neighbors to come up with a
screening plan to provide adequate screening consisting of adult trees and other
creative decorative screening between the proposed development and the
neighboring properties prior to the City Council meeting on November 24."
Mr. Kondrick stated he would be in favor of that.
Ms. Savage stated she realized that some of the people in the audience do not agree with the
Comprehensive Plan that was developed by the residents of Fridley over several years. She
stated State Statute 462.357 authorizes the City to rezone property for the purpose of carrying
out the policies and goals of the Comprehensive Plan. Regarding the rezoning, that does
achieve the goals of the Comprehensive Plan, and she would be in favor of the rezoning.
Mr. Oquist stated he is in favor of this development in lieu of what could go in with the existing
zoning, like an office building. He did not see a traffic pattern during rush hours with seniors 55
and older. He believed there will be traffic throughout the day but not during peak hours. He
agreed with Mr. Saba that the developers should do whatever they can to screen this
development from the neighboring properties.
Mr. Dunham stated that with the present zoning, they could have higher buildings and m�rEa
traffic issues. He is in favor of the rezoning.
Planning Commission Meeting, November 5, 2003 Page 19
Mr. Saba stated he would suppo�t the rezoning with the idea that they are not setting a
precedent for future similar developments, and that they will look at each development with tight
scrutiny. His real concern is not necessarily the traffic, but the screening. He is in favor of the
rezoning with the added stipulation.
MOTION by Mr. Saba, seconded by Mr. Kondrick, to recommend to City Council approval of
Rezoning, ZOA#03-03, by Town Center Development, LLC, to rezone property from G2,
General Business, C-1, Local Business, M-1, Light Industrial, and CR-1, General Office, to S-2,

INTRODUCTION
Town Center Development, LLC, is requesting a rezoning for the west side of Central
Avenue between Mississippi Street and E. Moore Lake Drive. Currently, there is a mixture
of commercial and industrial zonings and the petitioner is seeking to rezone the entire
block to S-2 Redevelopment District. The owners of Advance Companies, Ziebart, and the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority have agreed to the rezoning request.
[Supplementary reading materials available in Council's reading file]
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION

presented and an addition of stiputation #25 to read, "The petitioner shall work with City

THE MOTION CARRIED UNIMOUSLY.
Since the November 5, 2003, Planning Commission meeting, the petitioner submitted a

OVERVIEW
The requests:
Town Center Development, LLC, is requesting two separate land use actions from the City
of Fridley in order to construct 55 senior owner-occupied condominium units at 6490
Central Avenue. The finro actions being requested are a Plat and a Rezoning, both of which
will be examined individually in this report.
A Plat is being requested to create two new parcels, from 1282 Mississippi Street,
currently Tamarisk Resources, and 6490 Central Avenue, currently Sandee's and the
vacant lot south of it. Sandee's Restaurant will occupy one parcel and the other parcel will
allow for the construction of the 55 senior condominiums.
The petitioner is also requesting a rezoning for the west side of Central Avenue between
Mississippi Street and E. Moore Lake Drive. Currently, there is a mixture of commercial
and industrial zonings and the petitioner is seeking to rezone the entire block to S-2
Redevelopment District The owners of Advance Companies, Ziebart, and the Housing and
Redevelopment Authority have agreed to the rezoning request.

Proposed Project:
Town Center Development, LLC, is proposing to construct a 4-story 55-unit senior
condominium complex south of Sandee's Restaurant. Sandee's Restaurant will remain,
but will be under new ownership. The proposed 55 units will be owner-occupied and
comprised of 2 bedroom units. Thirty-one of the units will be 1,138 square feet, 8 of the
units will be 1,185 square feet, and the remaining 16 units will be 1,255 square feet in size.
The development will include 51 underground parking stalls and 4 garage stalls and
additional surface parking. A storm pond will be located on the south end of the project,
with a trail system and landscaping surrounding the property.

SITE HISTORY
In 1991, Tom Brickner requested a rezoning of the vacant property located south of
Sandee's Restaurant and west of Central Avenue from C-1, Local Business, and C-2,
General Business, to R-3, General Multiple Family Dwelling in order to construct a 48 unit,
three story apartment building. This rezoning request was similar to the one before us
today; however, it requested a rezoning to R-3, Multi-Family and was essentially an island
of R-3 zoning, surrounded by commercial and industrial properties. Ultimately, it was
denied based on the fact that it was spot zoning.

Zoning Map—Shows mix of zoning and properties to be replatted and rezoned.
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. State Statute gives the City the
authority to "rezone" property from one designated use to another, so long as the zoning is
in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan was developed
with resident input taken from several meetings held befinreen 1998 and 2000 and is a "tool
intended to help guide future growth and development of the community...lt is a plan
because it contains goals, policies and strategies that all work together, looking to the
future and working towards achieving a community wide vision': In order for a rezoning to
be viewed favorably, it must be in line with the City's vision laid out in the Comprehensive
Plan.
The proposed senior owner-occupied condominium complex and rezoning of the property
meet several of the objectives the residents of Fridley identified in the visioning session for
the Comprehensive Plan. The area of Old Central between Mississippi Street and Rice
Creek Road was identified as an area for future redevelopment. Redevelopment is
described in the Comprehensive Plan as a form of community revitalization that
transforms undesirable elements into desirab/e elements that reflect the community
collective vision. 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 build new facilities, meet current
market demands and desires of the City, and eliminate incompatible land uses. All the
above purposes of redevelopment have the potential of being met with the rezoning of
these properties.
The Comprehensive Plan specifically states that for this portion of Old Central,
"consideration should be made to replacing the current mix of single-family residential
57
and commercial uses with higher density residential development that together with the
health club may serve as an attractive residential location for move-up housing".
The Comprehensive Plan also states that for projects in these redevelopment areas
requiring rezoning that the S-2 zoning designation "would be the appropriate Zoning
district to implement for the redevelopment project. The intent of the district is to provide
the City with site plan review authority to determine if the proposed project meets the
goals and objectives of the City's Comprehensive and Redevelopment Plans".
The Comprehensive Plan, in both the Future Land Use&the Housing chapters, addresses
the desire for a variety of housing types in a number of goals listed below.
• Ensure that adequate opportunities exist for the development of a variety of
housing types at a range of affordability levels including low, low-moderate and
high cost housing to meet the life-cycle needs of Fridley residents.
• Create sustainable, self-reliant, mixed-use and mixed-income neighborhoods
that contribute positively to the quality of life and image of Fridley.
• Ensure a variety of housing types for people in all stages of the life cycle.
• Strengthen neighborhoods and improve upon the quality of the City's housing
stock.
• Diversify the housing supply to include move up housing both in the form of rental
and owner occupied housing.
As Fridley's residents continue to age, demand will increase for"empty nester" and senior
housing. There will be an increased demand for senior rental, senior owned
condominium/town homes, and assisted living facilities. The proposed project, 55 senior
owner-occupied condominium units, will meet some of the current demand for those
seniors seeking alternatives to their current housing type.
To avoid spot zoning and achieve the Comprehensive Plan's goal for this area, the
petitioner has received permission from Advance Companies, Ziebart, and the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority to request the rezoning from their current zoning
designations to the S-2, Redevelopment District.
Plat Request#03-08
Town Center Development, LLC, is seeking to replat the properties located at 1282
Mississippi Street and 6490 Central Avenue to create two separate lots. One of the newly
created lots will accommodate the Sandee's Restaurant, and the other will be used to allow
for the construction of a 55-unit owner occupied senior condominium development.
The property at 1282 Mississippi Street is currently zoned C-1, Local Business. The
existing building was constructed in 1952 and is currently being occupied by Tamarisk
Resources. The property at 6490 Central Avenue has a split zoning of C-1, Local
Business and C-2, General Business. Sandee's Restaurant occupies the northeast corner
of the site and the remainder of the property is vacant.
The proposed replat will consist of two lots; Lot#1 and Lot#2, Block 1, Town Center
Development. Rezoning a property to S-2, Redevelopment District allows for the maximum
58
flexibility for a redevelopment project; however, City staff asked the petitioner to design
their project to try to meet the zoning classification codes most similar to their intended
use. The proposed Lot#1 will accommodate Sandee's restaurant. Restaurants are
typically zoned C-2, General Business. Proposed Lot#1 is 24,525 square feet in size,
which exceeds the minimum lot area requirement for the C-2, General Business District.
Proposed Lot#1 also meets all the parking requirements for size and number of parking
stalls required for a restaurant use.
Anoka County has had the opportunity to review the proposed project and has stated that
additional right-of-way on Central Avenue and Mississippi Street will be required for future
reconstruction purposes. They anticipate that a 120 ft. right-of-way corridor will be required
for both Central Avenue/Mississippi Street intersections in order to provide the necessary
turn lanes for future safety and operational purposes. The County assumes when the
Central Avenue/Mississippi Street intersection is reconstructed, it would be centered in the
120 ft. right-of-way corridor. Consequently, roadway right-of-way dedication needs for this
site are 27-30 ft. adjacent to Mississippi Street and 10 ft. adjacent to Central Avenue.
Therefore, the County is requesting that at this time, both of the right-of-ways be dedicated.
Due to the necessity of the right-of-way acquisition along both County Roads, the Sandee's
restaurant building will be less than 1 ft. from the north property line, 3 ft. from the east
property line, and the parking setback will be 5 feet from the north property line. The
additional land acquisition will also require the petitioner to remove his existing patio area
on the north side of the building. As stated above, due to the flexibility allowed in the S-2,
Redevelopment district, the diminished setbacks can be recognized under this rezoning
master plan approval.

The proposed Lot#2 is 126,075 square feet(2.89 acres) in size. The petitioner is
proposing to construct 55 senior owner occupied condominium units. The development
will include 51 underground parking stalls and 4 garage stalls located at surface level.
Because of the underground parking and the high water table in this area, the height of the
building will be 51 feet at the midspan. The parking setback will be 10 feet from the
property line on the east side of the property, due to the additional right-of-way being
acquired by the County.

TRAFFIC
Staff utilized a number of sources to determine the possible impacts that 55 senior owner
occupied condominium units may have on the local traffic patterns. In addition to
discussions with Jane Pemble,Anoka County Traffic Engineer, staff examined the Institute
of Traffic Engineer's Trip Generation, consulted the Transportation chapter of the City's
Comprehensive Plan, and reviewed the traffic study supplied by Loucks &Associates.
Anoka County
City Staff contacted Jane Pemble, Traffic Engineering Manager at Anoka County, who
stated that currently the County has no plans or allocated funding to reconstruct, provide
safety improvements, or signalize the Central Avenue/Mississippi Street intersection.
Political and social pressures may determine when the intersection is re-worked. She also
stated that it is not clear whether or not this development will have a significant impact on
traffic volumes and/or turning movements. In order to determine the impacts, a traffic study
for this particular intersection will need to be done.
Institute of Traffic Engineer's (ITE) Trip Generation
The 4th Edition of ITE's Trip Generation manual does not have a specific category for
SENIOR RESIDENTIAL TOWNHOMES. As a result, Staff reviewed the traffic generation
numbers for RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS. The RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS are
not age specific, meaning that the numbers provided include persons of all ages and family
sizes living in condominium style housing. As seniors may have very different driving
habits (ie. may be retired and rarely drive, or choose to drive at the least busy times of day)
the numbers presented by the ITE Trip Generation manual may be viewed as a worse-
case scenario for the number of trips to be generated by the proposed development.
The ITE Trip Generation manual states that for residential condominiums, each unit
generates 5.85 trips/day. A trip means any vehicle entering or leaving the complex. For
example, leaving for work&then returning from work would count as 2 trips. Given the 55
units, it would be expected that a total of 322 vehicles would enter or leave the complex
during the course of a day. When the data is further analyzed, by time, the impact of these
vehicles on the surrounding roadways is negligible. During the morning rush hours of 7-
9AM, an additional 24.5 vehicles are entering or leaving the neighboring roadway(Old
Central) over the finro-hour timeframe. During the afternoon rush hours of 4-6PM, an
additional 30 vehicles enter into or leave from the complex. The following table
summarizes what the ITE Trip Generation manual states a residential condominium
complex generates for traffic during peak rush hours.
ITE PEAK HOUR TRIPS/UNIT
TIME #of Trips/ Unit #of Units Total Vehicle Trips
7-9 AM .446/ Unit 55 Units 24.5 Tri s
4-6 PM .561 / Unit 55 Units 30 Tri s
Comprehensive Plan—Transportation Chapter
The City's Comprehensive Plan indicated that in 2001, the portion of Old Central adjacent
to the proposed senior condominiums carried 8,000 vehicles per day and, at this traffic
60
� , .
level, was only carrying 57% of the traffic for which the roadway was designed and
constructed to function at a Level of Service (LOS) D. The Comprehensive Plan
anticipates O�d Central carrying over 10,000 vehicles per day by the year 2020, based
upon increases in population for Fridley&surrounding communities, as well as
redevelopment and reinvestment within Fridley. At 10,000 vehicles/day, Old Central will
be carrying 71°/a if the maximum amount of traffic for which the roadway was designed.
Review of Loucks &Associates Traffic Analysis
Town Center Development hired the Engineering & Planning firm of Loucks &Associates
to perform additional traffic analysis. The consultants viewed the numbers for
RETIREMENT COMMUNITY in the ITE Trip Generation manual and determined that the
proposed complex would generate a total of 165 trips per day. As the condominiums are
available for those over 55, a number of residents may still be working and the retirement
community numbers may be low. The true number of trips per day likely falls between the
165 trips/day generated by a RETIREMENT COMMUNITY and the 322 trips/day generated
by the average RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUM complex. A full copy of the consultant's
report has been attached for your review.

Fridley City Council
Fridley, Minnesota
Dear City Council Members:
In regards to the proposed zoning change and a 55 unit multiple family dwelling to be
developed on Old Central between Sandees Restaurant and Ziebart:
We appreciate the difficulty involved with trying to chart a course into the future with
community planning. One has to weigh the projected demands of the community while
being cognizant that changes done to the community may in fact be counter productive
and degrade the community. Dealing with a generalized public sentim„nt of"Not in my
backyazd" is not an easy task. Crranted, in most applications the term "Not in my
backyard" is more figurative than literal, but in the case of this development it is quite
literally in our backyard, our front yard and our living room— all positions are within
easy eyesight of a 51-foot high structure. Any activity that I do can be under the scrutiny
of the town home dwellers— from mowing my grass to baz-b-queuing to sitting in my
shorts in my living room drinking a beer. Talk about invasion of privacy . . .
We are against the proposed rezoning which will haveethe effect of giving the green light
to this proposed development for the following reasons, in no particular order of
importance:
1. Contrary to what was v��ritten some time ago in an HRA brochure, there are those
of us who appreciate natural beauty as it occurs, a�d do not feel that "Unused land is
a blight on the community." The lots that would be im�olved currently constitute a
mini-ecosystem, providing habitat, natural screening and drainage. And though the
land has a poor aesthetic quality according to man, it is nonetheless vital to nature.
2. Traffic is a multifaceted issue. One issue is personal safety. Traf�ic has already
increased greatly, with the biggest threats being tnose who cut through the
neighborhood by going up Pierce, Dellwood and 63rd in an effort to avoid traffic
lights or congestion from Highway 65. Because they are long blocks there is a
tendency to speed by these drivers (40—45 miles;per hour).
a. Another traffic related issue is the sheer voluine of cars. I raised the
question at the planning meeting that the figures that were provided were
before Medtronic went into full swing. If the numbers supplied were
indeed before Medtronic's traffic contri�ution, then we're lookin� at a
sizable increase. By the way, if the inciease in traffic is projected to
increase from � 55%to �75% of road capaciry—that is not a 20% increase
in crirrerit tra�c. Current traffic would increase 36°o - much the same���a}'
that if you made $55 an hour and it v��ere increased by $20 an hour your
increase in pay is 36%. With an increase in traffic you may be lookin� at
future remedial measures, such as stoplights, which will be expensive. In
the morning it can be difficult getting out of our neighborhood onto
Mississippi or Old Central. This will not help.
b. Volume of traf�c is not a trivial issue for us; these are some of the same
questions we asked when the West Moore Lake Commons shopping area
was developed. The city's traffic engineer assured the neighborhood that
by configuring the mall exit on 63rd street by curving it north eastward, and
installing a `right turn only' sign, would be enough so patrons would not
cut through the neighborhood. Well the curve doesn't extend far enough to
prevent people from exiting straight ahead or making a ]eft turn, and the
sign is now gone.
c. City of Fridley trucks servicing the substation at 63'� and Rice Creek also
use the neighborhood streets. We don't ha�e a problem with that, this is an
_ illustration of ways tr�c can increase in a neighborhood. We are not
looking to ban traffic from the neighborhood; we aze just using these as
examples of what has happened when development has occurred.
3. Related to, but not directly a component of, traffic— is parking. We heard what is
proposed by the developer for parking, and it is probably 2dequate for those who will
live there, but what about people who are visiting? Will it become "Let's park on
Pierce and cut through someone's yard by the pond!?!" Even without trespass, will
the adjacent streets become overflow parking for the.iownhouse? A case in point is
the Bottineau Commons complex on University and 18�' in Northeast Minneapolis. It
is our understanding that the developer promised adequate parking, but just take a
drive and see for yourselves. So much for what is promised and what is delivered.
The establishment on 63`d and Rice Creek has to already use 63ra for occasional
overflow parking, and we are stressing occasional, with SS families movin� in how
much of the overflow parking is the neighborhood supposed to absorb?
4. Some people on Pierce Street already experience water supply problems, with
settling ground movement breaking the connection frQm the main to the house, ��vith
has to be repaired at cost to the city. Can anyone foresee the settling effects on this
particular building? A drainage pond may alleviate immediate problems but also may
have far reaching effects other than draining the sites soil. It will drain an area a lot
larger than that. On a large scale, it is noted that the e�austion of aquifers causes
land to sink, as it is no longer supported by water. T�e surrounding land will drain so
what will be the effect on all the surrounding homes if the land beneath them settles?
5. Population density— Vastly increasing the population density of the neighborhood.
From our standpoint this is not a matter of being adamantly against higher density
housing. If that had been the case, we would not have moved onto Pierce Street 21
years ago, as fourpleaes occupied the east side of Pierce from 63Td to 64'�'when we
moved in. Also, with those structures in place v��e feel that our neighborhood already
has it's share of higher density housing. Is it a goal to malce this area the future
"Projects of Fridley?"
t
6. Aesthetics or Not? We're somewhat confused by the mixed signals Fridle_y seems
to be sending. On one hand, at a Planning Meeting approval was granted to a
business owner on Main Street to store equipment in the back of his establishment,
but with the proviso that it be properly screened so that the neighbors—we assume
mainly those folks on the east side of Main Street—would not be able to view it. On
the west side is railroad property. That is understandable. Yet by the same token,
this 51 foot high structure would be viewed by everyone in the surrounding area and
that seems to be fine. With only on or two story structures in our neighborhood this
will stick out like a sore thumb. There is no screening that will block our view. We
consider it an eyesore, but are our sensibilities going to taken to heart? We hope so;
otherwise it would've been pointless to write this.
7. What becomes of the promise/stipulations of the developer owner if six months -
down the road they seli out? What is to prevent this from becoming rental property?-
Lastly, this area is a neighborhood. People have moved in expec�ing certain qualities
that the area has to offer. People live here who appreciate the qualities it has to offer.
We're at most two story dwellings. There is a measure of privacy that Moore Lake
Highlands possesses, in large part because of the full-grown trees in the buffer zone
from Mississippi Street to Rice Creek Road. Note that it is called Moore Lal:e
Highlands. The city made the effort to name the neighborhoods to promote a sense of
community. It is not named Moore Lake High Density Lands.
It is easy for a developer to come in with pie in the sky prornises, it's the way they
make their living and we respect that. But you know what'� It affects people who
will always live here, while the developer goes on to some new project somewhere
else. We'll bet it's not in his backyard! -

PUBLIC HEARINGS:
12. CONSIDER.aTION OF A REZONING REQUEST, ZOA #03-Og, BY TOWN
CENTER DEVELOP�ZENT, LLC, TO REZONE PROPERTY FROM G1,
LOCAL BUSINESS; C-2, GENERAL BUSINESS; M-1, LIGHT INDUSTRIAL;
AND C-R1, GENERAL OFFICE, TO S-2, REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT, TO
ACCONIMODATE REDEVELOPMENT, GENERALLY LOCATED AT 1282
MISSISSIPPI STREET; 6490, 6400, 6352 AND 6300 CENTR-�L AVENUE; AND
1271 EAST NTOORE LAKE DRIVE (WARD 2).
MOTION by Councilmember Billings to waive the reading of the public hearing notice and open
the public hearina. Seconded by Councilmember Bolkcom.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR LUND DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANI��OUSLY.
Mr. Paul Bolin, Planning Coordinator, said he would do one presentation for Items 12 and 13 on
the agenda. The petitioner was Town Center Development, LLC, from Maple Grove. Town
Center Development requested two separate land use actions. The plat was being requested to
create two new parcels from 1282 Mississippi Street, which was Tamarisk Resources, and 6490
Central Avenue, currently Sandee's Restaurant and the vacant lot to the south. The petitioner
also requested a rezoning for the west side of Central Avenue between Mississippi Street and
East Moore Lake Drive. Town Center proposed to construct a four-story, fifty-five unit, senior,
owner-occupied condominium complex south of Sandee's Restaurant. Sandee's Restaurant
would be remodeled. The condominium units all had two bedrooms. Thirty-one units would be
1,138 square feet; eight would be 1,185 square feet; and sixteen would be 1,255 square feet. The
development would include fift��-one underground parking stalls, four garage stalls and seventy
additional surface parking stalls. A storm pond is also located on the south end of the project.
There was a trail system and landscaping surrounding the property.
Mr. Bolin discussed a drawing of the project.
Mr. Bolin said in 1991 Mr. Tom Brickner requested a rezoning of the vacant land south of
Sandee's Restaurant from C-1 and C-2 to R-3 which would allow general multiple family
dwellings. At that time he planned to construct a forty-unit, three-story apartment building. That
request failed because it was deemed to be spot zoning. Petitioner requested a rezoning for the
west side of Central Avenue between Mississippi and East Moore Lake Drive. They sought to
rezone the entire block to S-2, Redevelopment District. He said 1282 Mississippi Street was the
Tamarisk house, 6490 Central was the properiy currently owned by Sandee's, 6400 Central was
the property owned by Advance Companies, 6352 Central Avenue was owned by the Fridley
Housing and Redevelopment Authority, 1271 East Moore Lake Drive was owned by the City,
and 6300 Central Avenue was owned by Ziebart. The only properties proposed to be
redeveloped were 1282 Mississippi Street and 6490 Central Avenue. The other properties would
remain as-is. The City did have the authority to rezone property from one designated use to
another as long as the zoning was in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. In order for a
rezoning to be viewed favorably, it must be in line with the City's vision laid out in the
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL ��EETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 7 �
Comprehensive Plan. The proposed senior, owner-occupied, condominum complex and the
rezoning o�the property met several of the objectives the residents of Fridley identified in the
visionin� sessions for the Comprehensi�•e Plan. The area of Old Central between Nlississippi
Street and Rice Creek Road was identified as an area for future redevelopment. The
Comprehensive Plan specifically stated for that portion of Old Central, consideration should be
made to replace the current mir of single family residential and commercial uses with higher
density residential development that, together with the health club, would serve as an attractive
residential location for move-up housing. The Comprehensive Plan also stated that for projects
in these redevelopment areas that required rezoning, the S-2 zoning designation would be the
appropriate zoning district to implement the redevelopment project.
Mr. Bolin said Town Center De�•elopment also souaht to replat 1282 Mississippi Street and 6490
Central Avenue to create two separate lots to accommodate Sandee's Restaurant and the senior
building. He said the proposed Lot 1 would accommodate Sandee's Restaurant. Restaurants aze
typically zoned C-2, General Business. The proposed lot was 24,52� square feet, which
exceeded the 20,000 square foot minimum lot azea in a C-2 District. It also met the required
number of parking stalls for a restaurant use of this size. Anoka County stated that a 120-foot,
right-of-way corridor would be required for Central Avenue and Mississippi Street intersections
for future work. The right-of-way dedication needed for this site was 30 feet adjacent to
Mississippi Street and 10 feet adjacent to Central Avenue. Anoka County requested that both of
the right-of-ways be dedicated at this time. After the right-of-way acquisition along both county
roads, Sandee's Restaurant would be less than one foot from the north property line, 3 feet from
the east property line and the parking setback would be 5 feet from the north property line. The
right-of-way dedication would require the petitioner to remove the existing patio area on the
north side of the building. Due to the discretion given to Council in the S-2 Redevelopment
District, the diminished setbacks could be recognized under this rezoning master plan approval.
Mr. Bolin said that Lot 2, the proposed location for the senior building, was slightly under three
acres in size. Because of the underground parking and the high water table in the area, the height
of the building would be 51 feet at the midspan. The parking setback would be 10 feet from the
property line on the east side of the property.
Mr. Bolin said with respect to traffic, staff looked at a number of different sources to try to
determine possible impacts. In addition to discussions with the Anoka County Traffic Engineer,
they looked at the Institute of Traffic Engineer's Trip Generation Report, the transportation
chapter of the Comprehensive Plan, and reviewed a traffic study supplied by the developer's
engineering firm, Loucks & Associates. The County indicated that they had no plans to do
anything with the intersection. In the Institute of Traffic Engineer's trip generation manual, there
was no category specific to senior residential townhomes. They looked at the numbers for
residential condominiums which were not age-specific. The numbers presented by the manual
should be viewed as a worse case scenario for the number of trips because it included people of
all ages and family sizes. The manual stated that for all residential condominiums, each unit
typically generated 5.85 trips per day. A trip meant any vehicle entering or leaving the complex.
A total of 322 vehicles would enter or leave the complex during the course of the day. When the
data was further analyzed by time, the impacts on surrounding roadways become more
negligible. Based on averages, during the morning rush hour between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m.
' - FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24,2003 PAGE 8
there would be 24.5 or 25 vehicle trips. Between the hours of 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., there
would be about 30 vehicles entering or leaving the site.
Mr. Bolin said in 2001 when the transportation chapter of the City's Comprehensive Plan was
prepared, the portion of Old Central that was adjacent to the proposed senior condominiums
carried 8,000 vehicles per day. At that traffic level, it was only carrying 57 percent of the traffic
for which tne roadway was desiQned. The Comprehensive Plan anticipated Old Central carrying
over 10,000 vehicles per day by the year 2020. The numbers were based on projected population
increases. At 10,000 vehicles per day, Old Central would be carrying approximately 71 percent
of the maximum amount of traffic for which the roadway was designed. The developer's
consultants determined there w-ould be 165 trips per day which was similar to the amount of
traffic generated by a retirement community, which might be too low. The true number of trips
per day likely fell between 16� trips per day generated by the retirement community and 322
trips generated by the typical residential condominium complex.
Mr. Bolin said the Planning Commission held a public hearing on November 5, 2003. They
added a stipulation that required the developer to plant additional large trees along the property
line and that the developer share the new landscape plan with the neighbors. The new
landscaped plan included leavina some existing trees and planting 10 additional evergreen trees,
8 to 12 feet in height. The developer indicated that he had attempted to meet with the adjoining
property owners late last week. Staff recommended approval of the rezoning request with 2�
stipulations as follows:
l. Property to be developed in accordance with site plan, sheet C2-1, dated October 29, 2003,
by Loucks McLagan Engineering firm.
2. Petitioner to obtain all necessary permits prior to construction.
3. Petitioner to meet the attached comments from the Fire Marshall.
4. Petitioner to meet all building and ADA requirements.
5. Exterior remodeling plans for Sandee's to be reviewed and approved by City staff piror to
issuance of a building permit.
6. Patio on the north side of Sandee's to be removed prior to issuance of a building permit for
the senior complex.
7. Petitioner to provide clearance letter from the State Historical Preservation Office prior to the
demolition of the Tamarisk building.
8. Existing Sandee's signs in the right-of-way shall be removed prior to issuance of a building
permit.
9. No business signs shall be located within the County right-of-way. Any planting within the
right-of-�vay to be approved by the County prior to planting.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 9 � _
10. Petitioner to obtain a permit from Anoka County for any work done within the County right-
of-way.
11. Restoration of bike path along Central will be required after completion of senior complex.
12. Petitioner shall identify ponding area and provide easements for stormwater run-off and
management.
13. Storm pond maintenance agreement must be filed prior to issuance of building permits.
14. Petitioner shall obtain any required NPDES permit and provide NL1RP ponding for entire
site.
15. City Engineering staff to review and approve grading and drainage plan prior to issuance of
building pernuts.
16. Landscape plan to be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to issuance of building
permit.
17. Petitioner to pay any required Park Dedication Fees.
18. Petitioner to provide City with a copy of the building's association documents prior to
issuance of a building permit.
19. Building to be restricted to seniors and policies to do such shall be outlined in association
documents.
20. Provide proof that any existing wells or individual sewage treatment systems located on the
site are properly capped or removed.
21. Property owner of record at time of building permit application, to pay all water and sewer
connection fees prior to issuance of a building permit.
22. The petitioner to provide a traffic study that is approved by the County prior to issuance of a
building permit.
23. The petitioner shall be responsible for the cost of any traffic improvements necessary to
accommodate the traffic generated by the development including signalization or other
improvements, if determined necessary by Anoka County.
24. A development agreement outlining the developer's obligation to install utilities, etc., will be
prepared by the City and shall be signed by the Petitioner prior to final plat approval.
25. The petitioner shall work with City staff and the neighbors to come up with a screening plan
to provide adequate screening consisting of adult trees and other creative decorative
' � FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 10
screening between the proposed development and the neighboring properties prior to the City
Council meeting on November 24, 2003.
Mr. Bolin said the proposed rezoning was consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and it
provided additional housing opportunities for Fridley seniors. Staff recommended approval of
the preliminary plat request subject to 25 stipulations.
Councilmember Barnette asked how common it was for a petitioner to make a rezoning request
for more land than what was going to be used.
Mr. Scott Hickok, Community Development Director, said it was not that typical. In this case,
there was a mix of zoning along that segment of Old Central Avenue. They have asked to have
the zoning in that entire segment match the zoning that was designated in the land use plan of the
Comprehensive Plan. As long as they had the concurrence of the adjacent property owners, they
could do that.
Councilmember Barnette asked if they had any indication or request from any other developer on
any other kind of development in this area.
Mr. Hickok said he was not aware of any other development. �
Councilmember Wolfe said he had a problem with calling the development a retirement
community. He also had a problem with the traffic issue because people who were 55 still
worked. He asked if the developer met with the residents and wanted to know how the rezoning
worked.
Mr. Hickok the S-2 rezoning was the ultimate discretion because not only were they approving
the site plan which served as the master plan for the north half of the block, but the south half of
the block would remain questionable. It would take a master plan review and approval by
Council to initiate any sort of project there. It matched the goals and redevelopment objectives of
the Comprehensive Plan.
Councilmember Wolfe said they discussed the Comprehensive Plan and the vision that the
neighbors had. He had received many telephone calls from people and it sounded like none of
them were part of the vision. He thought it would have an incredible affect on traffic. He asked
when the traffic studies were done.
Mr. Bolin said the traffic engineer's manual was the fourth edition which was printed in 1987.
They are now in the process of updating the manual.
Councilmember Wolfe said the manual was 16 years old. He thought this project would have a
huge affect on the neighborhood.
Mr. Hickok said they encouraged Council to look at the traffic numbers for the all-age
condominum. It was important to understand that this manual was put together not with a
random sample of a couple different units. That was the best manual available.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 11
Councilmember Wolfe said more people are drivin� today.
Councilmember Billings asked if the 322 number of vehic(es per day was for condominium,
residential, no restriction on age.
Mr. Bolin said correct.
Councilmember Billings asked what it was for a typical single family home.
Mr. Bolin said 11 almost 12 trips.
Councilmember Billings asked why there was such a difference between the two.
Mr. Hickok said the ITE statistics were not speculative or projected. They were based on
statistical data.
Councilmember Billings said so using the 322 figure rather than the 165 was a more generous
amount of traffic. He said the S-2 zoning was a special zoning, so any construction that would
take place on any of the lots would have to go before the City Council. He asked if extensive
remodeling could be done. �
Mr. Hickok said any change to the site plan would be part of a master plan amendment that
would need to be reviewed by the City Council.
Councilmember Billings said under the rezoning, the sites would have to go through the same
process that Town Center Development was going through. There would be a greater
opportunity for the neighbors to know what was happening on those sites.
Mr. Hickok said that was correct.
Councilmember Bolkcom said with respect to the traffic study, it did not matter if it was a one or
two bedroom unit.
Mr. Bolin said it was broken down by unit type, such as condominiums versus townhomes.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked what the most recent traffic counts were for Old Central and
Mississippi Street and if they were readily available.
Mr. Jon Haukaas, Public Works D'uector, said they had them from 2001.
Councilmember Bolkcom said she was mystified that the traffic engineer manager from Anoka
County said that it was not clear whether or not the development would have a significant impact
on traffic volumes or turning volumes.
Mr. Hickok said it was like a disclaimer. They were doing their best based on the information
they had.
� � FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 12
Councilmember Bolkcom said they had the traffice volume numbers for Mississippi and Central,
and they would know how many trips were �enerated by this type of development.
Mr. Bolin said that he thought the County staff was trying to say that they knew what the traffic
counts were, without a more thorou�h analysis and more detailed information, they would only
be speculatinQ.
Councilmember Bolkcom said they did want more right-of-way.
Mr. Bolin aareed.
Ms. Tara Schaefer, 6391 Central Avenue N.E., said the project would be across the street from
her home. She worked at night and slept until late morning and this would interrupt her sleep for
two years, at least. She said there was a statistic of 10,000 cars a day on Old Central. She had
two very small children. There were many near accidents on Old Central. She asked what would
happen if there were not enough seniors for the complex. She wanted to know if it would be
opened up to other people.
Mr. Randy Johnson, 6336 Pierce Street N.E., asked if the project was going to be built no matter
what was said. He said he thought they could only fight the height of the buildings.
Mayor Lund said no decision had been made. It was just a public hearing.
Councilmember Barnette said they were there to listen.
Mr. Johnson said he did not want the project. He had two small children and Pierce Street was
like a raceway. He asked how much traffic it would bring to the community.
Councilmember Barnette asked Mr. Johnson if he thought the building on Central Avenue would
affect traffic on Pierce.
Mr. Johnson said he did. He said if the building did not fill up, they would let younger people
move in.
Councilmember Barnette said he asked that question at the Planning Commission meeting. He
said when they took out the building permit,the building had to be for 55 and older and had to be
owner-occupied.
Mr. Johnson asked about the area south of the project.
Councilmember Barnette said he asked if there were any plans for the area south of the project,
and the answer was no.
Mr. Johnson said it would bring commotion to their area. He said he picked the area because it
was a small community. The only choice was for him and his family to move.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 13 � �
Ms. Teresa Gibson, 12» — 66`h Avenue N.E., said she lived north of the project. She said she
drove up Channel Road and turned left on Mississippi in the mornina during rush hour and it was
dicey at best. She said there �vas an entrance from the project on to Mississippi and she did not
think this would be an improvement to the area. �'here were some apartments on Channel Road,
and they were a problem. In some of the literature she received, a future proposal for a 100-unit
apartment compleY across the street was mentioned.
Mr. Cash Burzynski, 618� Heather Place, said he was not opposed for rezoning to improve the
tax base. He asked the City to measure the traffic that currently existed on Old Central Avenue.
It was hard to get on to Old Central between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. and between 4:00 p.m. and
5:00 p.m. in the afternoon. There w-as a lot of traffic from Medtronic. They were told oriQinally
that Highway 65 would be the main highway. Old Central has now become another highway.
Not only passenger cars are using it, but heavy trucks. He said if the property was rezoned, it
would not be long for the people at Ziebart or Advance Carpet to want to change and build
condominiums or apartments.
Councilmember Wolfe said Onan and Murphy were also in the area.
Mr. Jim Rusinak, 6412 Pierce Street N.E., said once a precedent was set it became easier. In the
area he lived in, there was no access to any parks without crossing major roads. He said there
was one issue that had not been addressed and that was visitors. He asked about parking and
whether the roads in the area would become overflow parking. There was a stipulation that the
cunent owners had to abide by a stipulation that the residents had to be 55 or older. He asked
what would happen if the owners sold to someone else and if they would be required to follow
the same stipulation.
Mr. Hickok said the project was a 5� or older project and would be filed as such.
Mr. Mark Schwartz, 1372 - 64`h Avenue N.E., said he had concerns about any development in
that area with respect to drainage. Drainage has been an ongoing problem. When the credit
union was built, the problem got worse. He asked what would happen if Ziebart or Advance
Carpet were rezoned and if someone could buy the property and make a request to build
condominiums.
Attorney Fritz Knaak, City Attorney, said there would be less discretion if it were zoned
something else. Everyone had to be treated the same by the City, but this particular type of
zoning was developed specifically to provide greater discretion by the City in the case of larger
projects.
Mr. Schwartz asked if in his opinion the developer would come back with a lawsuit.
Mr. Knaak said he could not say whether someone would sue. He said for him it was a question
of how defendable the City's position be. It would be far easier to win that kind of lawsuit with a
S-2 type of zoning than it would be �ti-ith other kinds of zoning.
' ' FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL NIEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24,2003 PAGE 14
Mr. Schwartz said at the Planning Commission meeting it was stated that a sis-story ofi ce
buildin� could �o there with the current zoning, but logically, it would probably not be built. He
did not like the heiQht of the building. There were no other buildings in that area that were that
height. There w-ere 1 % and ? story buildings and single family homes in that area. He asked if
they were to receive a notice if they were w-ithin 3�0 feet. He did not receive a notice for the
Council meetinQ and no one else did.
Mr. Hickok said no mailing was made.
Mayor Lund said the mailing would have been before the Planning Commission meetinb
pursuant to State law.
Mr. Schwartz said in the future, the distance should be extended to more than 3�0 feet.
Mr. Knaak said it was pursuant to State law, but that was a minimum requirement.
Mayor Lund asked if it could be extended.
Mr. Knaak said if they chose to do so in and beyond all the other notices that were provided. He
pointed out that if they failed to do that, it was not a basis for denial and it did not cause the
procedure to fail. It was just additional notice that the statute required.
Councilmember Wolfe said it had been discussed before.
Mr. Schwartz said it seemed like it was being done hush-hush, instead of letting the people who
owned property in the community and lived there know what was going on.
Ms. Joan Olson, 6320 Van Buren Street N.E., said she was not personally affected by the project,
but her son ��•as. She asked how much property had been rezoned to S-2 in the last 3 1/z to 4
years.
Mr. Hickok said he would make that information available.
Ms. Olson asked why the map she had received had not been revised since January of 2000. If
the property was zoned to R-3,would it be put on that land.
Mr. Hickok said the project was built to R-3 standards even though they asked for a S-2
rezoning.
Ms. Olson said she was against it and thought it would be detrimental to the neighbors.
Mayor Lund asked if there were updated maps.
Mr. Hickok said they had updated maps.
Mr. Haukaas said they tried to have maps printed out at all times and they had current maps.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 15
i�ir. Joe Randall, 1210 Ntississippi Street N.E., said he had lived at his address since 19�3.
Traffic had arow�n tremendously. Several requests for zoning had also been turned down alon�
Mississippi betw�een Old Central and Highway 65. He said he could not get out of his yard
between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. �C"ou could talk about statistics, but when you lived in the area,
you saw thin�s first-hand. He asked where the concern was for the people who lived in the area.
They have maintained their properties, paid their taxes, and raised their kids. The project was for
seniors, but he asked where they would aet the money to live there.
Mr. Charlie Kocourek, 6330 Arthur Street N.E., said people have talked about traffic and zoning,
and it was said that the lona-range plan was for higher density housing in the area. He said the
question was hiah density housing, not the zoning.
Ms. Dorothy Pehl, 1260 Mississippi Street N.E. said she did not object to the building. The
traffic would be a problem. One of the things the bothered her was that they said the neighbors
in the area would be contacted, and no one had tried to contact her. She said they also had a
sewer problem that needed to be addressed. They have talked to staff and the problem had been
ignored. She asked what would happen if the new building came in and they had problems.
Councilmember Billings asked Mr. Haukaas to check on the matter.
Mr. Hickok said Mr. and Mrs. Pehl talked with them about one month ago. Staff did some
research and responded two weeks ago. They indicated that they would be present at the
meeting to ask Council to revisit the issue.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked what staff's response was.
Mr. Bolin said he spoke to Mr. and Mrs. Pehl after the Planning Commission meeting. He said
they found that nothing had changed since 1992. The pipe was there and the as-built drawings
they had on file showed a 30-foot easement. He said they could not find any more recent records
regarding the easement on the pipes. He told them if he found any additional information, he
would get back to them. He indicated that staff had not found any additional information.
Ms. Pehl said no one had gotten in touch with them. Their initial request was to fill the sewer
with cement and pipe it the way it should have been done. She said they were told they could
not get the permit unless they signed an easement. They had all the records. The value of their
property had dropped because they now had to disclose the information.
Mayor Lund asked staff to come up with a solution and to contact Mr. and Mrs. Pehl.
Mr. Tim Byrne, 6053 Woody Lane N.E., said the area was commercial and industrial. He did
not think any of the people in the area had a say in the Comprehensive Plan because not a single
person had said this was what they wanted. It was improperly zoned. He thought it was
misleading to say that there could be a siY-story office building there. There would not be any
six-story office buildings. He asked how they could rewrite the Comprehensive Plan. The
people in the area did not want a high-density housing corridor. Commercial and industrial was
fine. It was his opinion that S-2 was a way of getting around the zoning law. He said nothing
' � FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVE�IBER 24, 2003 PAGE 16
was being redeveloped_ With respect to traffic, at certain times of the day, EMTs and fire
personnel could not Qet throu�h the traffic on Old Central. Someone needed to physically go to
Old Central and look at the traffic.
V1s. C. J. Smith, 6430 Dellwood Drive N.E., said she was worried about left turns. The projected
development had two driveways comina out on to Central Avenue. Anyone who wanted to go
north w�ould have a hard time makinQ a left turn. That w�as where the increase of traffic on Pierce
Street would come from. People would be turning right and goin6 around the block. She said it
would also affect the people by Moore Lake.
NIs. Susan Hall, 1491 Rice Creek Road N.E., said she was for redevelopment, especially in the
area she lived. She felt uncomfortable with the S-2 zoning district, especially rezoning it beyond
the project area. It did not seem to fit the neighborhood. She asked how the area would look
when it was completed and if there were any design standards for the area or the overall corridor.
She wanted to know what the vision for the area was. If it was going to be high density housing,
it should be rezoned for that.
Mr. Curt Olson, 1385 — 64`h Avenue N.E., said a majority of the residents on 64th own one-acre
lots. He was concerned about the lights from the complex shining into his yard. He said he was
in the process of putting a major addition on his house, which he would not have been doing if he
had known what was going to be built. If the ptoject was going to go through, people would like
to see the building shortened to three stories. The developer sent a revised site plan and their
idea of what the Planning Commission called mature trees was apparently 8 to 12 foot pine trees.
There were no four story buildings in the neighborhood and they did not want to see it. It was
detrimental to their neighborhood.
Ms. Rhonda Rusinak, 6412 Pierce Street N.E., said the project would be in her front yard. There
was already high density in the neighborhood. They were concerned about traffic when Moore
Lake Commons was added. They tried to put up a sign to keep traffic out of the neighborhood
which did not work. The neighborhood had absorbed the traffic, but 55 additional homes in this
area would make traffic even worse. She was concerned about the value of her home. She was
very disappointed that this was even thought about.
Ms. Andrea Olson, 1385 — 64`h Avenue N.E., said she did not have a problem with the senior
housing portion of the project but asked if it had to be a high-rise building. High-density housing
was definitely an issue. People have spoken about the Comprehensive Plan and the fact that it
appeared that they did not have much input. This was something that needed to be addressed. It
was being used as a guideline and the neighborhood did not vote for it. Traffic was a concern.
Mr. Roy DeMars, 1464 Mississippi Street N.E., said the project would not fit into the
neighborhood. They would be setting a precedent if they approved the project. He said high
density was not riaht.
Ms. Jean Schwartz, 1372 — 64`h Avenue N.E., said she was not opposed to senior housing, but
she believed they would be setting a precedent with a four-story building in this area. She asked
why they needed more hiQh density housing in Fridley when the two-bedroom apartment
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL NIEETING MINUTES OF NOVENIBER 24, 2003 PAGE 17 " �
vacancy ri�ht now ran betw�een 12 and 16 percent. Rezoning to S-2 was a major issue. People
purchased their property knowinQ w-hat the zoning cunently was. It had been said that S-2
zonin� would give the Cit� more control. It miaht give the City plannina department and the
City Council more eontrol, but it ;ave the citizens almost none. They- could go to Plannin�
Commission meetinas and City Council meetings, but most of what they said was dismissed. It
took control away and also took the burden of proof off the developers. The Comprehensive
Plan did not match with what the citizens wanted.
��Ir. Tom Myhra, 6360 Able Street N.E., co-chair of the Concerned Citizens of Fridley, said
before the Planning Commission meeting he received a call about the development on Old
Central Avenue. He went to the area and talked to some of the residents, and no one had heard a
thing. He spoke with Mr. Hickok and asked why the residents had not been informed. Mr.
Hickok told him it was goinQ out. People should have been informed earlier. Many people have
talked about the Comprehensive Plan and the Concerned Citizens of Fridley was working on
that.
Mr. Virgil Okeson, 1423 — 64`h Avenue N.E., said he agreed with a lot of things that had been
said at the meeting. He did not have anything against senior housing, but he had experienced the
problems his neighborhood had in getting on Old Central in the morning and the latter part of the
day. He was concerned about the additional traffic. Also, the driveway for the facility would
probably be straight across from 64`� Avenue and the height of the buildin; was too high. It did
not fit into the neighborhood. -
�Tr. Richard Whinnery, Town Center Development, said they were at the meeting to make a
presentation.
Mr. John Klick, Klick Inter Arch Designs, said he was the architect for the project. The
proposed project, 55 senior condominium units, not only contained the condominiums, but each
floor also contained a common area, there were walking paths around the site, and the parking lot
was landscaped. The south part of the site was an open azea used for the water retention pond.
There were also water gardens along the area by Old Central. There were over two parking stalls
per unit.
Mr. Klick described the site plan and the proposed drawings for Sandee's Restaurant.
Mr. Klick said that one of the concerns brought up was about pazking. The present zoning of
C-1 and C-2 allowed for a variety of other uses, some with special use permits. There were some
uses that could go into the site without having to be rezoned or have City approval, such as an
office building. The impact of that type of use would be greater. People were talking about the
traffic in the morning and afternoon. An office building at that location would make the traffic
problem worse.
Mr. Whinnery said when they were originally contacted about doing the development, they did
look the site for many other uses, but they felt it would be better for the community if they kept
Sandee's Restaurant and put a senior compleY next to that. If they had put an office building
there, it �vould not have had to be rezoned. The reason for the S-2 rezoning was that they felt it
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL �IEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 18
would be better for the whole area to have the control. A senior building could go on that site
with the current C-? zoning. The only thinQ needed was facilities to do some care work. The
building would not be rental under any circumstances. A studv �vas conducted on the idea of
rental versus ownina, and the results showed that there was a very bia need in this area for a
senior building. Seniors were areat nei�hbors. VVith respect to the traffic count, they �vere told
by the engineers w�ho did the traffic study, that the traftic count was belo��� 8,000 cars. The study
was conducted in 200 i on Central Avenue N.E. It was somewhere around 7,000/7,�00 on
Mississippi. This area was zoned C-1 and C-2 over 20 years. He believed this project would
have the least impact. With respect to the property across Central Avenue, as far as he knew,
there were no permanent plans. With respect to the water situation, he said they went to the
watershed district and got their approval. They put in an extra large pond and rain gardens to
make sure they did not change the flow of water into someone's back yard. The only other thina
they could do was to put in a berm. If they did that, they would lose some trees. He said they
wanted to be a good neighbor. With respect to Tamarisk's building, they planned on moving it,
if it could withstand the move. The buildinj had been moved once before. They called the
historical society and were told that it was not a historical building.
Councilmember Wolfe asked how many underground parking stalls there were.
Mr. Klick said 5 L �
Councilmember Wolfe asked about outside parking.
Mr. Klick said there were 4 garages and 70 additional surface parking stalls.
Councilmember Wolfe said there would be 15 additional spots. He said there had been other
projects and what had happened was the Planning Commission and Council had said that once it
was there the residents would get used to it. He said that did not happen.
Mr. Whinnery said the national average was one car per unit. He said they found,that in a senior
building they do not have the extra cars.
Mr. Klick said there would be very few people in the building who where 55. Most would be 65
to 75 years old.
Councilmember Wolfe asked who approached them for the project.
Mr. Whinnery said the City did not approach them. They found the site and it was for sale and
they approached the owner of the property.
Councilmember Wolfe said that at the Planning Commission meeting, Mr. Whinnery was asked
to hold a meeting with the neighborhood.
Mr. Klick said the meetinQ was to provide the neighborhood with information with respect to the
different trees on the west side of the property.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 19
Councilmember Wolfe asked if that was done.
�1r. Whinnery said that one of their staff inembers went and knocked on the doors of all the
houses that abutted the west side of the property and gave them a flyer and layout. They did it
last Thursday between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. They also mailed a letter and a copy
of the site plan to 300 residents in the area.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked when that was done.
Mr. Whinnery said Friday morning. They were asked to do this two weeks ago. He told the
Planning Commission that they could not get it all done within a two-week period of time, ,..:
Mr. Klick said there was no requirement to send out the 300 letters. The requirement was to talk
to the neighbors to the west.
Mr. Whinnery said that was what they understood but after talking with staff, the� got it out to
everyone.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked how many property owners they contacted on the west side of
the property. �
Mr. Whinnery said they went to eight properties.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked how many they actually had conversations with.
Mr. Whinnery said about �0 percent. Some did not want to talk with them. Thev talked about
having a meeting earlier this evening, but they felt they got everything out to ever��one.
Councilmember Bolkcom said it was hard when someone came knocking on your door at 8:00 or
9:00 at night to have a conversation. She said the landscaping as they presented it would not be
in the right-of way.
Mr. Whinnery said some trees would have to be removed depending on what was done on
Mississippi.
Councilmember Bolkcom said there were some questions about the entrances.
Mr. Hickok said initially there were two access points on Mississippi and they recommended that
they go down to one. With respect to Old Central, those were the locations they submitted: No
modifications were made.
Councilmember Bolkcom said there was a lot of talk about traffic volume and the numbers were
from 2001. She asked if they intended to do anything yet this year.
Mr. Whinnery said the clock was ticking on the agreements they had.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24,2003 PAGE 20
Councilmember Bolkcom asked if it would be possible to put out traffic counters.
Mr. Haukaas said it would be difficult this time of year, but it could be done.
Councilmember Bolkcom said she �vas concerned about the traffic and would like to �et some
traffic counts on Old Central and Mississippi and then talk with the County. She thouaht they
should meet �vith the residents and discuss the project. She asked about the lights from the
buildin� and ho�v it�vould affect the nei�hbors.
Mr. Hickok said they were talking about the li�hting in the common area, not necessarily in the
units necessarily.
Councilmember Bolkcom said she was talking about both.
Mr. Hickok outlined what the view would be from a house on Pierce Street and from other areas
near the project.
Councilmember Wolfe asked how many 1 '/z story houses were behind the project.
Mr. Hickok said going south, it went from 1 '/z stories to split level homes, which were a bit
taller. Going north, there were a couple of ramblers and there was a side-by-side duplex on the
corner.
Councilmember Barnette said the City had three senior buildings. He asked what kind of
occupancy those buildings currently had.
Mr. Klick said those were rentals.
Councilmember Barnette asked what the estimated starting price of a two-bedroom unit was.
Mr. Klick said that two bedroom units would probably start at $165,000 or $169,900 and go over
$200,000.
Councilmember Barnette asked what the average home value was in Fridley.
Mr. Hickok said it was $163,000.
Councilmember Barnette said if an older couple decided to sell their home, they could get into
one of those units.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked if they had any other senior housing developments near a
residential neighborhood.
Mr. Whinnery said they had some in Maple Grove and Plymouth.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked if they were next to residential or single family homes.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL viEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 21 .
Mr. Whinnery said they were. He said he would provide a list.
�layor Lund asked staff how this would affect the City's tax base. It was his understandinQ that
it would not increase the le�y but would spread the taxes out over more properties.
vlr. Hickok said it would spread out the taY base. It allowed the City to ta.x more units at a
valuable comparable to the existing neighborhood. It did not increase the levy.
Mr. Burns, City Manager, said �vhen they started talking about taxes, it gave the impression that
this was a project generated by the City. It was not. It was an unsolicited project and one the
City had to deal with legally.
Councilmember Bolkcom said there was concern expressed over whether the project should be
rezoned S-2. She asked for an explanation.
Mr. Hickok said initially the property owner was looking at a senior building that was an assisted
senior building. The City Code allowed that in a commercial district. The developer said they
were not interested in doing the assisted living. They were interested in doing senior
condominiums. They conducted their own studies. Their studies indicated fhat the market was
ready for senior units and there were no for-sale senior units available in the community. They
looked at it from an R-3 perspective. They could not support spot zoning. It did not match the
Comprehensive Plan. The developer did some more research and reviewed the Comprehensive
Plan. The zoning that matched the area was S-2. They discussed options and it was suggested
that they talk to the property owners who agreed to a S-2 rezoning.
Mr. Klick said they could have done a rental property with some limited service areas for seniors
which was a permitted use under the C-2 zoning.
Mr. Whinnery said they found that by doing it this way, there was more of a personal
involvement by the people who owned the property. Everything seemed to go much smoother
and they made sure everything was taken very good care o£ He said there was a waiting list for
rental properties for seniors.
Mayor Lund asked if the outside parking spaces included the spaces being created for Sandee's
restaurant.
Mr. Whinnery said it did not include the parking for Sandee's. There was an area between the
two lots.
Mayor Lund said there was some talk about berms and they suggested that it would have to be a
large berm.
Mr. Whinnery said they would try to get the biggest trees in. He said if they did the berm, they
would lose anv trees that were there.
-
w. FRIDLEY CITY COL'NCIL i�IEETING MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 2003 PAGE 22
Mayor Lund asked if there were any advantages for Advance and Ziebart with�the rezoning.
VIr. Hickok said there were not.
Mayor Lund asked what the requirements were for lightina in the parking lot.
Mr. Hickok explained what the requirements were.
Mayor Lund asked how bliaht �vas determined.
Mr. Hickok said it was a miYture of things. It could be under-utilized property, or properties that
did not meet current standards in terms of the footprint of the building.
Mayor Lund said he was concerned with the two driveways on Old Central and their proximity
of one of the driveways to the intersection.
Mr. Hickok said staff felt it would be an improvement over what existed currently. The proposal
defined an entrance route. It did separate the uses and was much better defined. He said he
would not recommend getting rid of one of the driveways because there were two uses with
specific interests.
Vlayor Lund said he was concerned with how close the entrance was to the intersection.
Mr. Hickok said the County and City staff felt that this was an improvement over what currently
existed.
Mayor Lund said people mentioned the Comprehensive Plan and felt that it was not conducive to
what the community wanted. He asked how people could take part in the Comprehensive Plan.
Mr. Hickok said when they first started working on the Comprehensive Plan, people did not
attend the meetings. They broke the City into different planning sections and had about seven or
eight planning groups. Even though it was approved in March, 2001, it did not mean people
could not look at it and suggest modifications.
Councilmember Bolkcom said when they were working on the Comprehensive Plan, letters were
sent out. They also talked about the meetings at Council meetings.
MOTION by Councilmember Wolfe to continue the public hearing until December 8, 2003.
Seconded by Councilmember Barnette.
Mr. Hickok said that Stipulation No. 22 did require that a traffic shidy acceptable to the County
be completed prior to them getting a building permit. He said they were at end of the 60-day
period. He asked Council to consider that and formally let petitioner know.

there would be some dates listed for the City'� Board of Review and the County's Board of
Equalization. ���
Councilmember Barnette asked why there was an increase on commercial, industrial and
residential properties. �
Mr. Pribyl said the State tax was one that the'City could not reconcile. There had been an effort
by the legislature to move some of the tax burden to the residential properties.
Councilmember Barnette asked if Mr. Hanis's situation was different.
Mayor Lund said it was not.
Councilmember Billings said the State legislature kept tinkering with the formulas. This was the
end result.
Mr. Harris asked who at the State level set the general State tax.
Councilmember Billings said he thought the rate was set by statute and then applied to the
valuations.
Mayor Lund asked if anyone wished to address the City Council on the 2004 budget.
There u�as no response from the audience.
Councilmeznber Billings said by statute the budget could not be approved at this meeting. He
asked if t�ie hearing had to be continued or of it could be closed.
Mr. Pr' yl said the hearing could be closed. At the next Council meeting on Monday, Decemrer
15, 2 03. the Council would be considering a resolution to formally approve the budaet and the
tax vy.

Good afternoon:
Here are the traffic counts from Pierce Street. Stacy will you please make sure that we use this information when the Town

Subject: Traffic counts on Pierce
We tried some traffic counts on Pierce Street on Monday and into Tuesday morning. I say try because of the equipment
we have. A slow moving car may register as two cars because there is enough time between each axle crossing it for the
counter to reset. We put out two counters and results varied from 210 to 281 cars in the 24 hour period. Below are
averaged traffic counts for our reading increments.
9:40am - 12:40pm 25 cars 3 hours
12:40pm -3:40pm 57 cars 3 hours
3:40pm - 6:40pm 62 cars 3 hours
6:40pm - 9:40pm 41 cars 3 hours
9:40pm -6:40am 25 cars 9 hours
6:40am -9:40am 31 cars 3 hours
Ray set the counters and did the readings during the day. I did the 6:40pm reading on my way to the City Council meetng,
the 9:40pm reading on my way home from Council and the 6:40am reading on my way to work Tuesday morning.

Subject: Public Hearing for Rezoning Request, ZOA#03-Q�, Town Center Development
M-03-189
INTRODUCTION
Town Center Development, LLC, is requesting a rezoning for the west side of Central
Avenue between Mississippi Street and E. Moore Lake Drive. Currently, there is a mixture
of commercial and industrial zonings and the petitioner is seeking to rezone the entire
block to S-2 Redevelopment District. The owners of Advance Companies, Ziebart, and the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority have agreed to the rezoning request.
[Supplementary reading materials available in Council's reading file]
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
At the November 5, 2003, Planning Commission meeting, a public hearing was held for
ZOA#03-02. After receiving public comment and discussion, the Planning Commission
recommended approval of rezoning request, ZOA#03-02, with the 24 stipulations as
presented and an addition of stipulation #25 to read, "The petitioner shall work with City
staff and the neighbors to come up with a screening plan to provide adequate screening
consisting of adult trees and other creative decorative screening between the proposed
development and the neighboring properties prior to the City Council meeting on
November 24, 2003."
THE MOTION CARRIED UNIMOUSLY.
PAST COUNCIL ACTION
The City Council tabled action on this item and continued the public hearing until January 5,
2004. The Council requested that a more detailed traffic analysis be completed and that
the developer meet with surrounding property owners to further review screening of the site.
Traffic Analysis
The petitioner hired Traffic Data, Inc. to prepare a detailed traffic study of the areas
47
surrounding the proposed development. A full copy of the report has been included in the
Council reading packet. The consultant determined that under all scenarios, the functioning
of the roadways and intersections would not be negatively impacted by the senior
development. Furthermore, the traffic-engineering firm stated that neither a traffic signal
nor other roadway improvements would be necessary to accommodate the traffic from the
development.
The numbers presented in the study match closely the traffic counts conducted by the City's
engineering staff.
Neighborhood Concerns
The developer invited 88 property owners to a meeting at Sandee's Restaurant on
December 13, 2003. It was reported to staff that the neighbors were most concerned with
the height of the building. To address the concerns with height, the petitioner met with staff
on December 18th to discuss "Plan B" (also included in the Council's reading packet).
Plan B is a 3-story, 54 unit senior condominium building. The loss of 1 story of building
height requires that the building be extended to the north and east in a "U"shaped
configuration. '
Plan B would allow for more (72 stalls) of the senior parking to be placed underground and
would not impact the number of parking stalls required for Sandees. Staff did note that if
Plan B should become the approved site plan, a minor correction would need to be made
in regards to the drive aisle into the parking ramp. A 25' wide drive is required for two-way
traffic and the proposed alternative site plan shows only a 20' wide drive aisle.
PLANNING STAFF RECOMMENDATION
City Staff recommends approval of the rezoning to S-2 and with it the accompanying
master plan for the zoning district. Staff has reviewed both proposals, the original 4-story
and the 3-story alternative, and determined that either building design would fit on the site,
but that the 3-story alternative would be less intrusive to the neighborhood west of the
development.
STIPULATIONS
Staff recommends the following stipulations be attached to the approval of all land use
requests, above (including stipulation #26 if Plan B is the site plan approved with the
rezoning).
1. Property to be developed in accordance with site plan, sheet C2-1, dated October
29, 2003, by Loucks McLagan Engineering Firm.
2. Petitioner to obtain all necessary permits prior to construction.
3. Petitioner to meet the attached comments from the Fire Marshall.
4. Petitioner to meet all building and ADA requirements.
5. Exterior remodeling plans for Sandee's to be reviewed and approved by City staff
prior to issuance of a building permit.
6. Patio on the north side of Sandee's to be removed prior to issuance of a building
permit for the senior complex.
48
7. Petitioner to provide clearance letter from the State Historical Preservation Office
prior to the demolition of the Tamarisk building.
8. Existing Sandee's signs in the right-of-way shall be removed prior to issuance of a
building permit.
9. No business signs shall be located within the County right-of-way. Any planting

10.Petitioner to obtain a permit from Anoka County for any work done within the county

sewer connection fees prior to issuance of a building permit.
22.The petitioner to provide a traffic study that is approved by the County prior to
issuance of a building permit.
23.The petitioner shall be responsible for the cost of any traffic improvements
necessary to accommodate the traffic generated by the development including
signalization or other improvements, if determined necessary by Anoka County.
24. A Development Agreement outlining the Developer's obligation to install utilities,

OVERVIEW
The requests:
Town Center Development, LLC, is requesting two separate land use actions from the City
of Fridley in order to construct 55 senior owner-occupied condominium units at 6490
Central Avenue. The two actions being requested are a Plat and a Rezoning, both of which
will be examined individually in this report.
A Plat is being requested to create two new parcels, from 1282 Mississippi Street,
currently Tamarisk Resources, and 6490 Central Avenue, currently Sandee's and the
vacant lot south of it. Sandee's Restaurant will occupy one parcel and the other parcel will
allow for the construction of the 55 senior condominiums.
The petitioner is also requesting a rezoning for the west side of Central Avenue between
Mississippi Street and E. Moore Lake Drive. Currently, there is a mixture of commercial
and industrial zonings and the petitioner is seeking to rezone the entire block to S-2
Redevelopment District The owners of Advance Companies, Ziebart, and the Housing and
Redevelopment Authority have agreed to the rezoning request.

Proposed Project:
Town Center Development, LLC, is proposing to construct a 4-story 55-unit senior
condominium complex south of Sandee's Restaurant. Sandee's Restaurant will remain,
but will be under new ownership. The proposed 55 units will be owner-occupied and
comprised of 2 bedroom units. Thirty-one of the units will be 1,138 square feet, 8 of the
units will be 1,185 square feet, and the remaining 16 units will be 1,255 square feet in size.
The development will include 51 underground parking stalls and 4 garage stalls and
additional surface parking. A storm pond will be located on the south end of the project,
with a trail system and landscaping surrounding the property.

SITE HISTORY
In 1991, Tom Brickner requested a rezoning of the vacant property located south of
Sandee's Restaurant and west of Central Avenue from C-1, Local Business, and C-2,
General Business, to R-3, General Multiple Family Dwelling in order to construct a 48 unit,
three story apartment building. This rezoning request was similar to the one before us
today; however, it requested a rezoning to R-3, Multi-Family and was essentially an island
of R-3 zoning, surrounded by commercial and industrial properties. Ultimately, it was
denied based on the fact that it was spot zoning.

Zoning Map—Shows mix of zoning and properties to be replatted and rezoned.
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. State Statute gives the City the
authority to "rezone" property from one designated use to another, so long as the zoning is
in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. The 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...lt is a plan
because it contains goals, policies and strategies that all work together, looking to the
future and working towards achieving a community wide vision". In order for a rezoning to
be viewed favorably, it must be in line with the City's vision laid out in the Comprehensive
Plan.
The proposed senior owner-occupied condominium complex and rezoning of the property
meet several of the objectives the residents of Fridley identified in the visioning session for
the Comprehensive Plan. The area of Old Central between Mississippi Street and Rice
Creek Road was identified as an area for future redevelopment. Redevelopment is
described in the Comprehensive Plan as a form of community revitalization that
transforms undesirable elements into desirable elements that reflect the community
collective vision. 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 a/so provide an opportunity to build new facilities, meet current
market demands and desires of the City, and eliminate incompatible land uses. All the
above purposes of redevelopment have the potential of being met with the rezoning of
these properties.
The Comprehensive Plan specifically states that for this portion of Old Central,
"consideration should be made to replacing the current mix of single-family residential
55
and commercial uses with higher density residential development that together with the
health club may serve as an attractive residential location for move-up housing".
The Comprehensive Plan also states that for projects in these redevelopment areas
requiring rezoning that the S-2 zoning designation "would be the appropriate Zoning
district to implement for the redevelopment project. The intent of the district is to provide
the City with site plan review authority to determine if the proposed project meets the
goals and objectives of the City's Comprehensive and Redevelopment Plans".
The Comprehensive Plan, in both the Future Land Use &the Housing chapters, addresses
the desire for a variety of housing types in a number of goals listed below.
. Ensure that adequate opportunities exist for the development of a variety of
housing types at a range of affordability levels including low, low-moderate and
high cost housing to meet the life-cycle needs of Fridley residents.
. Create sustainable, self-reliant, mixed-use and mixed-income neighborhoods
that contribute positively to the quality of life and image of Fridley.
. Ensure a variety of housing types for people in all stages of the life cycle.
. Strengthen neighborhoods and improve upon the quality of the City's housing
stock.
. Diversify the housing supply to include move up housing both in the form of rental
and owner occupied housing.
As Fridley's residents continue to age, demand will increase for"empty nester" and senior
housing. There will be an increased demand for senior rental, senior owned
condominium/town homes, and assisted living facilities. The proposed project, 55 senior
owner-occupied condominium units, will meet some of the current demand for those
seniors seeking alternatives to their current housing type.
To avoid spot zoning and achieve the Comprehensive Plan's goal for this area, the
petitioner has received permission from Advance Companies, Ziebart, and the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority to request the rezoning from their current zoning
designations to the S-2, Redevelopment District.
Plat Request#03-08
Town Center Development, LLC, is seeking to replat the properties located at 1282
Mississippi Street and 6490 Central Avenue to create two separate lots. One of the newly
created lots will accommodate the Sandee's Restaurant, and the other will be used to allow
for the construction of a 55-unit owner occupied senior condominium development.
The property at 1282 Mississippi Street is currently zoned C-1, Local Business. The
existing building was constructed in 1952 and is currently being occupied by Tamarisk
Resources. The property at 6490 Central Avenue has a split zoning of C-1, Local
Business and C-2, General Business. Sandee's Restaurant occupies the northeast corner
of the site and the remainder of the property is vacant.
The proposed replat will consist of two lots; Lot#1 and Lot#2, Block 1, Town Center
Development. Rezoning a property to S-2, Redevelopment District allows for the maximum
56
flexibility for a redevelopment project; however, City staff asked the petitioner to design
their project to try to meet the zoning classification codes most similar to their intended
use. The proposed Lot#1 will accommodate Sandee's restaurant. Restaurants are
typically zoned C-2, General Business. Proposed Lot#1 is 24,525 square feet in size,
which exceeds the minimum lot area requirement for the C-2, General Business District.
Proposed Lot#1 also meets all the parking requirements for size and number of parking
stalls required for a restaurant use.
Anoka County has had the opportunity to review the proposed project and has stated that
additional right-of-way on Central Avenue and Mississippi Street will be required for future
reconstruction purposes. They anticipate that a 120 ft. right-of-way corridor will be required
for both Central Avenue/Mississippi Street intersections in order to provide the necessary
turn lanes for future safety and operational purposes. The County assumes when the
Central Avenue/Mississippi Street intersection is reconstructed, it would be centered in the
120 ft. right-of-way corridor. Consequently, roadway right-of-way dedication needs for this
site are 27-30 ft. adjacent to Mississippi Street and 10 ft. adjacent to Central Avenue.
Therefore, the County is requesting that at this time, both of the right-of-ways be dedicated.
Due to the necessity of the right-of-way acquisition along both County Roads, the Sandee's
restaurant building will be less than 1 ft. from the north property line, 3 ft. from the east
property line, and the parking setback will be 5 feet from the north property line. The
additional land acquisition will also require the petitioner to remove his existing patio area
on the north side of the building. As stated above, due to the flexibility allowed in the S-2,
Redevelopment district, the diminished setbacks can be recognized under this rezoning
master plan approval.

The proposed Lot#2 is 126,075 square feet (2.89 acres) in size. The petitioner is
proposing to construct 55 senior owner occupied condominium units. The development
will include 51 underground parking stalls and 4 garage stalls located at surface level.
Because of the underground parking and the high water table in this area, the height of the
building will be 51 feet at the midspan. The parking setback will be 10 feet from the
property line on the east side of the property, due to the additional right-of-way being
acquired by the County.
57
TRAFFIC
Staff utilized a number of sources to determine the possible impacts that 55 senior owner
occupied condominium units may have on the local traffic patterns. In addition to
discussions with Jane Pemble, Anoka County Traffic Engineer, staff examined the Institute
of Traffic Engineer's Trip Generation, consulted the Transportation chapter of the City's
Comprehensive Plan, and reviewed the traffic study supplied by Loucks &Associates.
Anoka County
City Staff contacted Jane Pemble, Traffic Engineering Manager at Anoka County, who
stated that currently the County has no plans or allocated funding to reconstruct, provide
safety improvements, or signalize the Central Avenue/Mississippi Street intersection.
Political and social pressures may determine when the intersection is re-worked. She also
stated that it is not clear whether or not this development will have a significant impact on
traffic volumes and/or turning movements. In order to determine the impacts, a tra�c study
for this particular intersection will need to be done.
Institute of Traffic Engineer's (ITE) Trip Generation
The 4th Edition of ITE's Trip Generation manual does not have a specific category for
SENIOR RESIDENTIAL TOWNHOMES. As a result, Staff reviewed the traffic generation
numbers for RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS. The RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUMS are
not age specific, meaning that the numbers provided include persons of all ages and family
sizes living in condominium style housing. As seniors may have very different driving
habits (ie. may be retired and rarely drive, or choose to drive at the least busy times of day)
the numbers presented by the ITE Trip Generation manual may be viewed as a worse-
case scenario for the number of trips to be generated by the proposed development.
The ITE Trip Generation manual states that for residential condominiums, each unit
generates 5.85 trips/day. A trip means any vehicle entering or leaving the complex. For
example, leaving for work&then returning from work would count as 2 trips. Given the 55
units, it would be expected that a total of 322 vehicles would enter or leave the complex
during the course of a day. When the data is further analyzed, by time, the impact of these
vehicles on the surrounding roadways is negligible. During the morning rush hours of 7-
9AM, an additional 24.5 vehicles are entering or leaving the neighboring roadway (Old
Central) over the two-hour timeframe. During the afternoon rush hours of 4-6PM, an
additional 30 vehicles enter into or leave from the complex. The following table
summarizes what the ITE Trip Generation manual states a residential condominium
complex generates for traffic during peak rush hours.
ITE PEAK HOUR TRIPS/UNIT
TIME #of Trips/ Unit #of Units Total Vehicle Trips
7-9 AM .446/ Unit 55 Units 24.5 Tri s
4-6 PM .561 / Unit 55 Units 30 Tri s
Comprehensive Plan —Transportation Chapter
The City's Comprehensive Plan indicated that in 2001, the portion of Old Central adjacent
to the proposed senior condominiums carried 8,000 vehicles per day and, at this traffic
58
level, was only carrying 57% of the traffic for which the roadway was designed and
constructed to function at a Level of Service (LOS) D. The Comprehensive Plan
anticipates Old Central carrying over 10,000 vehicles per day by the year 2020, based
upon increases in population for Fridley&surrounding communities, as well as
redevelopment and reinvestment within Fridley. At 10,000 vehicles/day, Old Central will
be carrying 71% if the maximum amount of traffic for which the roadway was designed.
Review of Loucks &Associates Traffic Analysis
Town Center Development hired the Engineering & Planning firm of Loucks &Associates
to perform additional traffic analysis. The consultants viewed the numbers for
RETIREMENT COMMUNITY in the ITE Trip Generation manual and determined that the
proposed complex would generate a total of 165 trips per day. As the condominiums are
available for those over 55, a number of residents may still be working and the retirement
community numbers may be low. The true number of trips per day likely falls between the
165 trips/day generated by a RETIREMENT COMMUNITY and the 322 trips/day generated
by the average RESIDENTIAL CONDOMINIUM complex. A full copy of the consultant's
report has been attached for your review.

CENTER DEVELOPMENT, LLC, TO CREATE TWO SEPARATE LOTS TO
ALLOW FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A SENIOR HOUSING
DEVELOPMENT. GENER.ALLY LOCATED AT 1282 MISSISSIPPI STREET AND
6490 CENTRAL AVENUE (WARD 2)(CONTINUED DECEMBER 8.20031.
MOTION by Councilmember Wolfe to reopen the above public hearings. Seconded by
Councilmember Bolkcom.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR LUND DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Councilmember Billings asked if the public hearing on the rezoning request and the preliminary
plat request should be opened together.
Mayor Lund agreed.
Mr. Scott Hickok, Community Development Director, said Town Center Development requested
two separate land use actions in order to construct a 55-unit, owner-occupied senior condominium
building at 6490 Central Avenue. The plat was being requested to create two new pazcels from
1282 Mississippi Street and 6490 Central Avenue and the vacant lots south. The petitioner also
requested rezoning for the west side of Central Avenue between Mississippi Street and East Moore
Lake Drive. The zoning in the azea was mi��ed. He described the plat and rezoning area. Anoka
County stated that a 120 foot right-of-way corridor would be required for Central Avenue and
Mississippi Street in order to provide necessary turn lanes for future safeTy and operational
purposes. Roadway dedications for this site were 30 feet adjacent to Mississippi Street and 10 feet
adjacent to Central Avenue. The County requested that both of the right-of-ways be dedicated.
Mr. Hickok said with respect to traffic analysis, staff used a number of sources to determine the
possible impacts a 55-unit, owner-occupied, senior building would have on local traffic patterns.
In addition to discussions with Ms. Jane Pemble, Anoka County Traffic Engineering Manager,
staff examined the Institute of Traffic Engineer's Trip Generation manual, consulted the
transportation chapter of the City's Comprehensive Plan, and reviewed the traffic study supplied
by Loucks & Associates. Ms. Pemble indicated that the County had no current plans or allocated
funding to reconstruct, provide safety improvements or to signalize the Central
Avenue/Mississippi Street intersection.
Mr. Hickok said the 4�' edition of the Institute of Traffic Engineer's (ITE) Trip Generation manual
did not have a specific category for senior residential townhomes. Staff reviewed the traffic
generation numbers for residential condominiums which were not age-specific, so the numbers
provided included people of a11 ages and family sizes. The numbers provided by the ITE Trip
Generation manual may be viewed as the worse case scenario for the number of trips to be
generated by a proposed development. The ITE manual sta.ted that 5.85 trips per day should be
expected for residential condominiums. A trip meant any vehicle entering or lea�ing the complex.
The impact of the vehicles on the surrounding roadways was negligible.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JANUARY 5, 2004 PAGE 8 �
Mr. Hickok said staff also used the Transportation Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan to analyze
traffic for this development. The Comprehensive Plan indicated that in 2001, the portion of Old
Central adjacent to the proposed project carried 8,000 trips per day. At this traffic level, it was
carrying 57% of the traffic for which the roadway was designed and constructed to function at a
Level of Service D. The Comprehensive Plan anticipated Old Central carrying over 10,000
vehicles per day by the yeaz 2020. At this level, Old Central would be carrying 71% of the
maximum amount of the traffic for which the roadway was designed.
Mr. Hickok said that Town Center Development hired the engineering planning firm of Loucks &
Associates to perform additional traffic analysis. The consultants viewed the numbers for a
retirement community in the ITE Trip Generation manual and determined that the proposed
complex would generate a total of 165 trips per day, which might be low. The true number of trips
per day likely fell between 165 trips per day and 322 trips per day.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this item on November 5, 2003. The Planning
Commission added an additional stipulation requiring the developer to plant additional large trees
along the property line and that the developer share the new landscape plan with the neighbors.
The new landscape plan was prepared and presented. It included losing some e�cisting trees and
planting ten additional evergreens that were 8 to 12 feet in height.
Mr. Hickok said that at its November 24, 2003, City Council meeting, Council tabled action on
this item for further txaffic analysis. Further analysis indicated no impact to the functioning of the
roadways or intersections. The developer did meet with the neighbors to address neighborhood
concems. As a result of the meeting, a three-level design was proposed.
Mr. Hickok said the petitioner hired Traffic Data, Inc.,to prepaze a detailed study of the roads and
intersections surrounding the project. Under all scenarios, the functioning of the roadways and
intersections would not be negatively impacted by the senior development. No signals or roadway
improvements would be needed to accommodate traffic from this development. The study
numbers were similar to City traffic counts. Staff conducted traffic counts on Pierce Street. The
traffic counts were conducted from Monday, December 8, 2003, through Tuesday, December 9,
2003. Anoka County counts indicated that there were 6,500 cars per day on Mississippi Street
west of Old Central. On Old Central north of Mississippi Street, there were 9,000 cazs per day.
Old Central Avenue south of Mississippi Street had 8,260 cars per day.
Mr. Hickok said that with respect to the ITE Trip Generation manual, a new ITE manual was
published in December, 2003. That information now included a senior adult housing category.
For 55 units, it indicated a trip generation of 191 daily trips. The ITE manual was a national
survey of developments to determine a realistic average.
Mr. Hickok stated that the redesigned site plan was the result of a meeting held at Sandee's
Restaurant with surrounding neighbors. The redesigned plan eliminated one of the units, so there
were now 54 units and was now three stories instead of four. All of the site specifics worked
except that one of the drive-outs on the site was only 20 feet wide. Two-way traffic needed a 25
foot drive-out. There was space to widen that. Staff recommended approval of Rezoning Request,
ZOA #03-03 and the accompanying site plan for the senior building with 26 stipulations. The
,• �'RIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JANUARY 5,2004 PAGE 9
proposed rezoning was consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, and it provided housing
opportunities for Fridley seniors. Staff recommended approval of Preliminary Plat Request, PS
#03-08 with 26 stipulations.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked about the different levels of service.
Mr. Hickok said the level of service had a gradation scale similaz to grading school papers. The
letters A through F were gradation for levels of service at intersections. Grade A would be the
best. Tr�c engineers talked in terms of a.m. and p.m. peak times when they are looking at
intersections. If the traffic did not move well during those periods, it would not move well during
the mid-day periods. At the point where the level of service got to be unacceptable, alterations
needed to be considered at an intersection. The tr�c analysis showed there would be no drop in
the level of service based on this development.
Mr. Jon Haukaas, Public Works Director, said that a big factor in level of service was delay time.
Level of Service A was a free-flow condition. Level F had a significant backup. Level B was very
good with minor delays, probably at the worst times. Level C might mean six to ten cars at a four-
way stop and it was still considered a very acceptable level of service.
Councilmember Bolkcom said it only took into account the intersections. It did not include
driveways.
Mr. Haukaas agreed.
Councilmember Bolkcom said asked what the Level of Service was for the intersection of 57th and
University Avenues.
Mr. Haukaas said that 57�'Avenue was at a Level of Service D.
Councilmember Wolfe asked what the intersection was at the end of Moore Lake.
Mr. Haukaas said he did not know.
Councilmember Wolfe said that at one time it was an issue. After the azea was redeveloped, it
became an F. He said the development was not going to change anything.
Councilmember Barnette asked how the new plan affected the underground parking.
Mr. Hickok said it broadened the footprint of the building. Initially there were 51 parking spaces
below the building and there was an exterior detached garage that included 4 gaxage stalls. The
new footprint included 64 below ground stalls. It also added storage space in the building.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked Mr. Hickok to explain a document Council received regarding the
condominiums.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JANUARY 5,2004 PAGE 10 `
Mr. Hickok said it was a draft document that discussed the rules and guidelines for the proposed
residential development. He said he had three copies that were available for review. The
document specifically sta.ted who qualified to live in the development. There was a 55 year
minimum requirement to qualify for this development. It also addressed another question
regarding the next generation of buyers or what would happen if the development was no longer
owner-occupied. It allowed a maximum of five percent of the units, or 5 units, to become rental.
There was a process,however,that had to be followed. It was their intent to have 90 percent of the
units owner-occupied.
Councilmember Wolfe said there had been discussions about widening Highway 65 to three lanes
and asked how that would affect the traffic flow.
Mr. Hickok said part of the planning process by traffic engineers was to determine destinations.
The purpose for broadening a highway like Highway 65 was to handle capacity and move the
tr�c. If there were other destinations off the highway that would draw people away via
Mississippi Street, that would be a concern. Broadening the roadway would help the situation and
allow people to get from point A to point B quicker.
Councilmember Wolfe sta.ted it was said there was virtually no traffic going between the north and
south Medtronic developments because they had their own shuttle.
Mr. Hickok said when the Medtronic development came to Fridley, one of the things they were
asked to do because of the traffic demands that might be generated was to look at alternative
modes of transportation. They encouraged sta.ggered start times and a number of different things,
including shuttles between their north and south development.
MOTION by Councilmember Billings to receive a letter dated January 4, 2004, from Rhonda and
Jim Rusinak, 5412 Pierce Street N.E. Seconded by Councilmember Wolfe.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, MAYOR LUND DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNA1vIMOUSLY.
Mr. Richard Whinnery, Town Center Development; Mr. John Christen, Christen Art Design; and
Mr. Mike Stokart, Traffic Data, Inc., introduced themselves.
Mr. Whinnery said they met with the residents. During the meeting they discussed the landscaping
plan and it was accepted the way it was presented. They lowered the building to three stories and
did a tr�c study that showed there would be little or no impact by the proposed development.
Mr. Christen said the underground pazking area had 18 additional spaces. There were 54 units and
72 underground parking stalls and 53 above-ground stalls, for a total of 125 parking stalls.
Mr. Stokart mentioned that there was no data available, and that was what they based the study on.
There was a specific item that talked about senior adult housing. They also reviewed what would
be a worse case scenario, and they felt that would be a large o�ce complex. Under that worse
. FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JANUARY 5.2004 PAGE 11
case scenario, it would be operating at an acceptable level of service pursuant to traffic engineering
guidelines.
Councilmember Bolkcom said the problem was not just at the intersections, but with people
getting out of their driveways. She asked if anything had been done on that.
Mr. Stokart said nothing was done with that because tr�c congestion was at major intersections.
He thought the tr�c impact would not be noticeable.
Councilmember Bolkcom said Mr. Whinnery provided addresses for other developments. She
went and looked at three and did not think any where similar.
Mr. Christen suggested a building in Maple Grove.
Ms. Joan Olson, 6320 Van Buren Street N.E., said she did not agree with the information about
senior drivers. She said she had kept track and her and her husband generated between 16 to 18
trips per day. The building had no amenities. There was no park, golf course, or swimming pool
near by. There was nothing in the azea. Traffic on Old Central was congested. There were no
breaks i.n the traffic because there were no stoplights.
Ms. Jean Schwartz, 1372 — 64�'Avenue N.E., said that according to the S-2 redevelopment district
regulations, if this was approved, they would need a special use permit for several 9 foot parking
stalls. She said a developer must esta.blish a legitimate reason for rezoning. The City was under
no obligation to rezone. If the area was zoned S-2, it would make it very easy for a developer to
build. It bothered her that the Planning Department suggested that land beyond the project be
rezoned. Since the names on the plans seemed to be City sta.ff, she thought it was obvious who
really developed the City's Comprehensive Plan. Since there was high attendance at Council
meetings where high density housing was an issue, it should be cleaz where the residents actually
stand. The Comprehensive Plan called for multi-family residential housing to decrease from 1999
to 2020. Some cities have gone against the Met Council in favor of the residents' opinions. She
asked what was more important, the Met Council's opinion or the concerns of their constituents.
With the rezoning to S-2 going beyond the project, they would be setting a precedent. That land
will be rezoned for multiple dwellings and for redevelopment.
Ms. Pam Reynolds, 1241 Norton Avenue N.E. Said that after the redevelopment on Norton
Avenue, the Comprehensive Plan was something she looked at daily. The Comprehensive Plan
talked about change of chazacter within a neighborhood. The Comprehensive Plan also said that
the developer must make it cleaz that the project would benefit the neighborhood. Members of the
neighborhood had been at meetings saying they did not want the project. Once the zoning was
changed, they could do whatever they wanted. The Comprehensive Plan said the developer was
the one who had to prove that the zoning was necessary and he did not prove that. The
demographics regarding senior citizens in Fridley, the State of Minnesota and in all of the 188
cities encompassed by the Metropolitan Council did not prove the need for this kind of project. If
the zoning was changed to S-2, the character of the neighborhood would change, and the
Comprehensive Plan said that they should avoid changing the character of the neighborhood.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JANUARY 5,2004 PAGE 12 �
Ms. Cindy Mabel, 1214 Norton Avenue N.E., said she traveled on Old Central every day. She said
it was already busy. She said they needed to think about how society was changing. She did not
think City staff was working for the residents. There were other areas that were better suited. She
asked if it was the will of the people or the will of the Metropolitan Council. They did not want
the project and did not think that Central Avenue could handle the traffic.
Mr. Gary Brown said his family owned the subject property for over 20 years. The property had
been zoned commercial since about 1957-58. They felt that developing the land into a senior
facility was a good mix for the neighborhood. Central Avenue did carry a lot of tr�c during rush
hour, so did a lot of roads. Concern was expressed when the Credit Union was built, when the
Fire Department was built, and when the athletic club was built. That was progress. The City
needed to grow and change. They needed to make a decision if they wanted to have senior
housing in Fridley. It was time to develop the property and this was a quality project.
Councilmember Barnette asked if City staff coerced or encouraged them to sell their property.
Mr. Brown said they did not.
Mr. Kurt Olson, 1385 — 64�' Avenue N.E., said the developer who was looking at developing on
the east side of Old Central told him that someone from City planning, told him to talk to a11 the
neighbors because there was an a11ey easement and see if they were willing to sell their properties.
Councilmember Barnette said they were tallcing about the current project.
Mr. Olson sa.id someone may have gotten that idea from what he was told. He did not like the idea
of the S-2 zoning for the whole block. If somefliing was going to go there, he would rather have it
be seniors than anydiing else. At the last meeting they said there would not be any rental units.
Now, they were saying 5 percent or 5 units. If it was passed, he would like there to be no rental.
There should also be a stipulation that when they planted the trees, if the trees died within two or
three years,the development or the developer had to take care of the problem.
�;
Mr. Mazk Schwartz, 1372—64�'Avenue N.E., asked why the rest o�the.block was rezoned.
Mayor Lund sa.id it was necessary because if not, it would be considered be spot zoning.
Mr. Schwartz said he did not understand that.
Ms. Andrea Olson, 1385 —64�' Avenue N.E., said it did not seem necessary to rezone the area that
was not part of the project. By opening up S-2 zoning, they would be leaving themselves with less
ground to manage what someone might do with the property. She appreciated that the developer
brought the building down to a lower level. It would have less of an impact. That did not mean it
was right for the neighborhood. It was a residential area.
Councilmember Bolkcom said that the way it was zoned now, they could put sometlung much
bigger there and there would be nothing they could do about it. The way it was zoned now, they
could ask for a building permit, and as long as it fit into the footprint,they could put something in.
' . �'RIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JANUA.RY 5,2004 PAGE 13
Ms. Olson said it was not only creating a precedent for the neighborhood but for the entire city.
Traffic in the area was crazy.
Mr. Hickok said the first speaker talked about the data on the number of trips generated. That was
one of the reasons several sources were used. Seniors are getting more active. They do not want
to be tied down to yard work, snow plowing and shoveling. Someone mentioned 9-foot pazking
stalls in the site plan. Staff was very cazeful to go through the site plan. The information they
have been provided was that the parking was going to be adequate and the sta11 dimension proper.
Mr. Hickok said there was discussion about the Comprehensive Plan and spot zoning. With
respect to the Comprehensive Plan, anyone who was at the meetings had an opportunity to speak
and be involved in the process. He was encouraged by the amount of interest in the
Comprehensive Plan, and he thought they should be interested in it. It was important to
understand that beyond the people who were passionate about this issue, there were other voices
who put words into the Comprehensive Plan about what people needed. One of the things that was
clearly described and articulated by discussions at the Comprehensive Plan meetings was senior
housing and the opporlunity it would provide seniors to say in the community.
Mr. Hickok said a question was brought up about rental units. It appeared that the project would
a11ow up to 10 percent or up to 5 units. That would be govemed by the body of the association.
There was a question about trees and landscaping. Trees when planted as part of a master plan
development needed to live. They were very specific about trees in the landscape plan. The
zoning was consistent with standard zoning practices used in the past.
Mr. Hickok said there was a concem about the development across the street and City staff sending
someone out to buy property. A gentleman came in and was interested in rezoning the north end
of the block. Staff asked him to look at the history across the street and the discussions that had
taken place. It was explained to him how spot zoning worked and what the standard practices had
been and what would be a proper zoning request. They had not received a formal development
proposal.
Councilmember Bollccom asked if parking stalls were normally 9 feet wide.
Mr. Hickok said in residential projects it was not uncommon to see a 9-foot parking stall. The City
did have the discretion to approve a master plan with 9-foot stalls. In a S-2 district, they could
approve the plan at it was. He said the 9-foot stalls did not raise a concern at this point. Turn-over
was an issue, and turn-over in a senior complex like this was proven to be low.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked about spot zoning.
Mr. Hickok said there would be different opinions about what was and was not spot zoning, so
what they relied on was the standazd practices of the City and what the City had done historically
in making determinations about what was and was not an appropriate zoning demarcation. Half
the block was not an appropriate point to stop when looking at the Comprehensive Plan. It would
only accomplish half of what was set out in the Comprehensive Plan.
FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JANUARY 5, 2004 __ PAGE 14 '
Councilmember Bolkcom said she did not understand it. It was only helping one developer.
Mr. Hickok said that bigger than the one developer was what the City had said it wanted to do on
this segment of roadway. The guide plan of the Comprehensive Plan said that if and when the area
was developed, the City envisioned it would go from East Moore Lake Drive to Mississippi from
Old Central to mid-block. When someone came in and asked for half of it, we said sorry, they
needed to get the other folks on the block involved. If the other properry owners said no, the
developer would have had a dilemma. What was requested was consistent with the guide plan.
That was the bigger picture. It was what the City said it wanted.
Councilmember Bolkcom asked why the zoning for someone who was already there needed to be
changed. Nothing was going to be done with the other two properties. She asked why they were
included. If they made it S-2,many things could be done.
Mayor Lund asked the City Attorney if it was a legal requirement to rezone the entire block and if
it could be sepazated.
Attorney Fritz Knaak, City Attorney, said the idea behind spot zoning was you were not supposed
to be taking and rezoning on a case-by-case, development-by-deve�opment basis. They were
supposed to base their decision on not only the needs of a particular development but the needs of
the City. If there was a block where a development may need or want a certain kind of zoning,
they were actually obligated to look at the remaining block and the areas surrounding that to
determine if additional rezoning was necessary as part of the process. When Courts reviewed
these decisions, one of the things they looked at was boundaries and whether they were rational. In
order to protect the needs of the City, they needed to look beyond the single site for redevelopment
and determine, based on the Comprehensive Plan, whether it made sense to extend the zoning
beyond what was being requested.
Mr. Hickok said someone in the audience sa.id the developer must prove there was a need. The
developer did a housing study to determine the demographics for the area, what the market
demand was for senior housing, and what the market would bear in terms of price for the units.
They used a reputable firm to conduct the survey. The response proved that not only was there a
demand here but the units were in a healthy price range.
