Seconded by Commissioner Heuchert. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Chair Pro-Tem Borman declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing was opened at 7:07 p.m. Stacy Stromberg, Planning Manager, presented a request from the property owner of 7800 Pearson Way N.E. to split the lot to create a second single-family lot. She provided background information on the property and an analysis of the request, noting that both lots proposed would meet or exceed the minimum lot requirements. She stated that staff received a question from a neighboring property owner asking for clarification on what could be constructed on the new lot and explained that the property would only allow construction of a single-family home. She stated that there are not yet details on the home that would be proposed for the new lot. Staff recommends approval of the request as presented and reviewed the recommended stipulations. Chair Pro-Tem Borman invited the applicant to address the Commission. John Wheeler stated that the request is for a lot split, and the goal would be for Mr. Johnson to retain ownership of the second lot and develop that within the next year or so with a single-family home that would fit in well with the neighborhood. Chair Pro-Tem Borman asked if this was previously two lots as there are two PIDs. Ms. Stromberg confirmed that there are currently two lots, and this would modify the position of the lot line. She stated that both lots are currently buildable as is. Commissioner Brom asked for details on the driveway placement. Mr. Wheeler replied that each lot would have its own driveway and identified those elements on the site plan. Commissioner Nealy referenced stipulation six and asked if the driveway and shed on the new parcel would be removed within 60 days of approval, even if they do not plan to begin construction right away. Mr. Wheeler confirmed that they understand the stipulation and would do that. Roland Peterson, 235 Craigbrook Way, stated that he does not oppose the request and has not heard any negative comments from anyone in the neighborhood about the request. Motion by Commissioner Heuchert to close the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner Brom. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Chair Pro-Tem Borman declared the motion carried unanimously and the public hearing was closed at 7:17 p.m. Motion by Commissioner Heuchert to recommend approval of the Lot Split, LS #24-01, for the property at 7800 Pearson Way N.E., with stipulations.

City Council Action/60 Day Action Date: Legal Description of Property: City Council October 14, 2024 Lots 2 and 3, Block 1, Valley Addition. 60 Day Date October 14, 2024 Staff Report Prepared by Stacy Stromberg 6 Jufn!3/ Written Report The Request The petitioner, Natasha Lawrence is the owner of the property at 6677 Lucia Lane, and is requesting two land use approvals. A Comprehensive (Comp) Plan Amendment Request The 2040 Comp Plan designates the future land use of the property as single-family residential, and the petitioner is requesting an amendment to change the land use designation to Multi-Family. A Rezoning Request The subject property is currently zoned R-1, Single Family and the petitioner is requesting to have the property rezoned to R-3, Multi-Family. Site Description and History The subject property is on the east side of Lucia Lane, next to the newly constructed cul-de-sac. The property is zoned R-1, Single Family as are the properties to the east and south. The properties to the north and west are zoned R-3, Multi-Family. The subject property was originally part of 6663 Lucia Lane. In 2018, the 6663 parcel was subdivided to create three single-family lots. The petitioner purchased the two vacant lots in 2023, and then combined the two lots into one large lot. The petitioner had planned to construct a new single-family house on the property, but has since decided not to, and pursue these land use requests. The plans submitted with the rezoning request show that the petitioner would like to construct a duplex on the subject property. Comprehensive Plan Analysis Single-Family Residential Single-Family Residential single family detached housing, including manufactured homes, 1-4 units/acre. The petitioner is requesting to modify that designation to - dwelling units, such as duplexes, twin homes, townhomes, quad homes, and apartment complexes, from 9- 7 Jufn!3/ This property was likely guided for Single-Family Residential because there is a single-family house on the lot (6663 Lucia Lane) this lot was originally created from, and the lots to the north, east, and south also have single-family homes on them. Despite the single-family use of the properties to the north, the properties are zoned R-3, Multi-Family, as is the apartment building property across Lucia Lane. The Comp Plan Amendment to change the land use designation of the property is in conjunction with the request to rezone the property from R-1, Single Family to R-3, Multi-Family. The Housing Chapter within the Comp Plan notes that the City is lacking in a wide variety of housing types. Over the last 5 years, the City has seen the construction of several new multi-story apartment buildings. The housing type proposed with this application has not recently been built in Fridley. The application helps support a variety of housing options for resident. Lastly, amendments to the Comp Plan need to be approved by the City Council and the Metropolitan (Met) Council. The Met Council considers this a minor amendment and therefore has waived the requirement to notify neighboring jurisdictions. Rezoning Analysis the vision for the City, which is then established within the Comp Plan. The City has discretion to district to another as long as the zoning meets the intent of the Comp Plan. Additionally, state law prevents . with establish a use classification inconsistent with surrounding uses and create an island of nonconforming uses within a larger zoned district. To approve a rezoning, there must be similarly zoned land adjacent to the property. The apartment building property to the west is zoned R-3, Multi- Family as are the properties to the north, therefore, this request to rezone is consistent with the zoning on neighboring properties. The plans submitted with this rezoning application are to construct a duplex on the south 8 Jufn!3/ end of the property. However, once the property is rezoned to R-3, Multi-Family, a larger building could be constructed based on the large lot size. Any new building constructed on the property will need to comply with all code requirements, related to setbacks, parking, landscape and stormwater treatment and wetland protections. A wetland delineation was completed in 2021, and the submitted map shows the location of existing wetlands on the property. Wetlands limit the buildable area of the lot. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends the Planning Commission hold public hearings for Comp Plan Amendment, CPA #24-01, and Rezoning, ZOA #24-01. Staff recommends approval of the Comp Plan Amendment CPA #24-01 to change the future land use guidance for the site, with stipulations. Staff recommends approval of the Rezoning to R-3, Multi-Family Zoning District, ZOA #24-01, with stipulations. Stipulations Staff recommends the following stipulations on the Comp Plan Amendment, CPA #24-01: 1. -1, Single Family to R-3, Multi-Family. 2. the Comprehensive Plan Amendment is contingent upon the Staff recommends the following stipulations on Rezoning, ZOA #24-01. 1.
