MOTION by Commissioner Heintz to open the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner Hansen. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIR OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING OPENED AT 7:03 P.M. /źƷǤƚŅCƩźķƌĻǤtƌğƓƓźƓŭ/ƚƒƒźƭƭźƚƓaĻĻƷźƓŭƚŅCĻĬƩǒğƩǤЋЊͲЋЉЊБЋ Scott Hickok, Community Development Director, stated that the City of Fridley is requesting to replat a portion of two properties; one at 5601 and the other at 5851 East River Road in order to dedicate the land th area needed for the future 57 Avenue extension. This new street right-of-way will also improve access for new private development and expand the east west travel opportunities within the City of Fridley. Mr. Hickok said that Mr. Allen and the owner of Kapstone Container have agreed to the plat for the roadway dedication and have signed off on the preliminary plat application. You'll note that there is interdependence between the two properties 5601 and 5851 at the juncture where they enter the sites. Fortunately, there was a solution to allow a land trade that mutually benefitted both of the property owners and allowed John Allen, owner of 5601 East River Road to control the right-of way necessary to enter his development and to allow proper movement in and out of the site with a semi tractor/trailer combinations and passenger vehicles as well. This access will also allow better movement into the Kapstone Container site to the north, once this development occurs. A final benefit of the exchange is that it allows Mr. Allen to dedicate the right-of-way property for the 57th Avenue extension. This extension may one day provide enormous benefit to his and all other Fridley properties as it would allow east west travel to the commercial Fridley Market area and points further east, without having to enter HWY 694. th Mr. Hickok stated the land area needed for 57 Avenue extension, is 54,358 sq. ft. (1.25 acres) from the Industrial Equities property and 5,227 sq. ft. (.12 acres) from the Kapstone Container property. Total land area dedication is 59,585 (1.37 acres). Mr. Hickok stated City Staff recommends approval of this preliminary plat request. Meets the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and the City to provide an extension of th 57 Avenue from Main Street to East River Road Allows improved access to both the properties (5601 and 5851 East River Road). th Commissioner Hansen thinks that the 57 Avenue connection makes a lot of sense for the City. He asked if there was a possibility to use out lot B for potential storm water ponding or if that was dedicated to the property owner. Mr. Hickok replied that area is planned as part of the storm water management for the private development. Staff will take a look at this closer when the bridge portion comes into play to see if there is capacity to use it for additional storm water storage. MOTION by Commissioner Heintz to close the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner Schwankl. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIR OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 7:13 P.M. MOTION by Commissioner Hansen to approve the Consideration of a Plat PS #18-01, by the City of Fridley, to Replat a minor portion of the properties at 5601 and 5855 East River Road to facilitate a new street right-of-way and improved access for new private development, generally located at 5601 & 5851 East River Road. Seconded by Commissioner Heintz. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIR OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY /źƷǤƚŅCƩźķƌĻǤtƌğƓƓźƓŭ/ƚƒƒźƭƭźƚƓaĻĻƷźƓŭƚŅCĻĬƩǒğƩǤЋЊͲЋЉЊБЌ 2.Consideration of a Rezoning, ZOA #18-01, by Industrial Equities River Road, LLC, to rezone the parcel 5601 East River Road from C-3, General Shopping, to M-2, Heavy Industrial, to allow the construction of two industrial buildings. MOTION by Commissioner Heintz to open the pubic hearing. Seconded by Commissioner Hansen. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIR OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING OPENED AT 7:15 P.M. Stacy Stromberg, Planner, said that items two and three would be presented together. John Allen, the owner of the property located at 5601 East River Road, is requesting that this property be rezoned from C-3, General Shopping to M-2, Heavy Industrial. The property was zoned M-2, Heavy Industrial prior to it being rezoned to commercial in 2009. Due to the lack of commercial and office users in the market, the property has been vacant since it’s 2009 rezoning. The petitioner has a prospective tenant to occupy the larger of the two buildings proposed, and that user fits more in an industrial zone, therefore the existing request. Ms. Stromberg said that along with the rezoning, the petitioner is asking to have the Transit Oriented Boundary District line modified, to remove his property from the TOD District. The size of the development, with the proposed users, at an intersection of an Interstate and County roadway make it difficult for the project to meet the standards within the TOD Overlay District. Due to the proximity of this site to bus service and the Northstar Commuter Rail, staff is requiring that the site have pedestrian/bike connections to existing systems that are already in place. Ms. Stromberg noted that the subject property is 27 acres in size and is located on the NE corner of Interstate 694 and East River Road. It is bordered by the railroad tracks to the east and an industrially zoned property to the north. The property was zoned M-2, Heavy Industrial until 2009. The property was originally developed in 1969, when an office/warehouse building was constructed. In 1969, the site served as the headquarters, research, and production facility for LaMaur Inc., who manufactured toiletries and cosmetics. Several additions were added to that original building, which eventually made the building approx. 450,000 sq. ft. in size. Ms. Stromberg said that in 1999, Tiro Industries, Inc., purchased the property from LaMaur Inc., and they were in business at this location until May of 2005. When Tiro Industries, Inc. decided to sell the property, the owners had very little success in attracting industrial tenants to occupy the building and believed that, with industrial trends changing and manufacturing users few, the property would be much more attractive to tenants as a commercial property. Ms. Stromberg stated that Tiro Industries Inc. sold the property to JLT Group in 2005 and JLT Group applied for a rezoning from M-2, Heavy Industrial to C-3, General Shopping. The owners didn’t have a commercial tenant identified to occupy the site. However, they were asking the City Council to consider the rezoning, so they could market the site to potential commercial buyers. Once a user was identified for the site, the rezoning was to come back to the City Council for second reading of the ordinance. The City Council approved the first reading to rezone the property in September 12, 2005 and set a 24-month timeframe for the rezoning to come back for second reading. After the 24-month timeframe had expired, an 18 month extension was approved to give the owner additional time to come before the City Council for second reading. The Council eventually approved a commercial/retail master plan (attached) for the site with the commercial rezoning in February of 2009. Once that was approved, if theplan varied in overall footprint size, by 10% or more, it would come back to the City Council for further review. /źƷǤƚŅCƩźķƌĻǤtƌğƓƓźƓŭ/ƚƒƒźƭƭźƚƓaĻĻƷźƓŭƚŅCĻĬƩǒğƩǤЋЊͲЋЉЊБЍ Otherwise, the Master Plan that was approved, including a portion of land for the potential 57th Avenue right-of-way extension was to be used for development of the site. Ms. Stromberg noted that market indicators soon made it clear that this site and approved master plan would need to be re-evaluated. The window closed on the sale of the land to the interested retailer (Sam’s Club) and instead, Sam's and Wal-Mart redesigned their current stores in Fridley. Subsequent to that decision, the market for big box completely dried up and real estate investment/analyst folks began to predict at least a 10 - 15 year dry spell before the market would come back to large retail centers like the one envisioned for this location. Too many centers didn't make it and were sitting empty, needing to be refilled or re-purposed. Also, without certainty of when a 57th Avenue connection may happen, the commercial market looking at this site was very limited. Ms. Stromberg said that JLT Group filed for bankruptcy and eventually the bank holding the mortgage on this site insisted that the land price be reduced and that the land be sold. This opened the door to many potential prospects, the majority of which wanted to purely develop industrial warehouse alone. Ms. Stromberg reviewed that in 2012, John Allen and hisIndustrial Equities Group successfully negotiated purchase of the property and worked with the City to create a master plan with a development that had a mix of uses that met the intent of the TOD overlay zoning. That TOD master plan was approved by the City Council on July 22, 2013 to allow a phased project. Phase 1 will consist of the construction of a (1) level speculative office/warehouse building along the east side of the property. Proposed additional phases could include two (5) level professional office buildings with underground parking, a connected (2) level common core and a parking structure; and a 120 unit multi-family/senior housing development with underground parking. Ms. Stromberg stated that since receiving master plan approval in 2013, Mr. Allen has marketed the site for a corporate headquarters user, market rate residential or senior users and industrial and commercial users. In his narrative that is attached, he states that the most significant commercial interest he’s had was from a new or used car dealership or a mini-storage facility. He has also had no interest from residential developers or senior residential developers, because they are looking for closer proximity to amenities that are easily accessible. He’s also marketed it to major corporate users, without interest. However, Mr. Allen has found a user that is committed to occupying building #1 that will be predominantly placed facing Interstate 694, as shown on the attached site plan. This user will bring approximately 300 employees to the site in a building that will be a mix of office, production, and warehouse. Therefore, he is asking to have the property rezoned back to its original zoning of M-2, Heavy Industrial. The industrial zoning fits better with the proposed user and development and is what the market will bear for this site. Ms. Stromberg noted that the proposed project will allow for the construction of two buildings that will provide office, production, and warehouse opportunities. The site plan submitted preserves the area th needed for the master planned 57 Avenue extension from Main Street through the subject property and Kapstone Container’s property to East River Road. Along with the rezoning and text amendment application the petitioner is requesting, the City is also processing a plat application to dedicate the land th area needed for the 57 Avenue extension. Mr. Allen and the owner of Kapstone Container have agreed to the plat for the roadway dedication and have signed off on the preliminary plat application. Along with the road dedication on the north side of the site, multiple easements on the property, including sanitary sewer and Xcel Energy easements, limit how the site can be developed. The petitioner has designed the development and placement of the proposed buildings with that in mind. Ms. Stromberg stated that he envisions building #1, to be placed along the southern edge, facing Interstate 694, will develop yet this year, as he already has a user identified for this building. Building #2 th will face north and what could be 57 Avenue, with the truck court incorporated in-between the two /źƷǤƚŅCƩźķƌĻǤtƌğƓƓźƓŭ/ƚƒƒźƭƭźƚƓaĻĻƷźƓŭƚŅCĻĬƩǒğƩǤЋЊͲЋЉЊБЎ buildings to help screen that area from the public right-of-way. The petitioner states that each building will be constructed of attractive exposed aggregate pre cast panels, with extensive perimeter glass, and brick highlights. The site will also provide a broad amount of landscaping, storm water retention ponds and sidewalk connections to existing pedestrian sidewalk and trail networks. The petitioner states this th development can occur whether or not 57 Avenue is extended from Main Street to East River Road however he has designed the development to accommodate the roadway and has designed building #2 to th front the 57 Avenue extension in the event that it is constructed. Ms. Stromberg said that the City’s zoning ordinance and official zoning map are the mechanisms that help the City achieve the vision laid out in the Comprehensive Plan. The law 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’s 2030 future land use map designates this area as “Redevelopment”. Redevelopment, whether to a commercial or industrial user, is what is happening to this site. So the proposed rezoning does allow for the redevelopment of the site, and therefore meets the intension of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Staff is however requesting a Comprehensive Plan Amendment be approved to modify the language within the 2030 plan that’s related to this site being developed as a mixed use development and then to remove it from the TOD Overlay boundary. Knowing th the City’s vision for the 57 Avenue extension to connect the commercial users on Main Street to the multi-family housing units on East River Road, the petitioner has been working on getting this site developed since the master plan was approved in 2013. Even before that master plan was approved, the market was proving that commercial viability in this location was unlikely. Even still, the petitioner worked hard to try to find a corporate user and a residential user that would work alongside his industrial building, with no success. Ms. Stromberg reviewed that in late 2017, the petitioner contacted City staff to say he has a prospective tenant that wants to consolidate all of their businesses to one site and would like to move their operation to the subject property for their headquarters. They need a building around 250,000 square feet that can provide a combination of office, production, and warehouse space. The petitioner has assured City staff that though this use in more industrial in nature than what the City had anticipated for this site, it will have a “corporate like design”, with state of the art buildings and amenities that will be a premier location in the metropolitan area. Ms. Stromberg said that once it was determined that the petitioner was going to ask to have the property rezoned, it became apparent to staff that the proposed development would require many variances to comply with the TOD Overlay regulations. The purpose of the TOD Overlay district is to encourage dense, mixed use, pedestrian-friendly development within a one-half mile of the rail station, to create multi-modal connections to the rail station, reduce automobile dependency, and encourage life cycle housing. Ms. Stromberg noted that the mere size of this property and the fact that it’s surrounded by a major highway system and railroad make it difficult to comply with the TOD regulations. Because of the close proximity of the subject property, the petitioner will be required to provide multi-modal connections throughout the site to existing trail systems within the City, to encourage employees to use the available transit service along East River Road. It should be noted that if the Planning Commission and City Council approve the text amendment and remove the subject property from the TOD Overlay district, the property does still remain within the Northstar Transit Tax Increment Finance District; which will produce increment for infrastructure improvements within the District. The increment created could then be used to further help with safe connections to the rail station or it could also be used for the more technical design drawings that would be necessary to develop a bridge design that could be approved by BNSF. The actual cost of the bridge would need to be a shared cost likely between the City, County and the Minnesota Department of Transportation. /źƷǤƚŅCƩźķƌĻǤtƌğƓƓźƓŭ/ƚƒƒźƭƭźƚƓaĻĻƷźƓŭƚŅCĻĬƩǒğƩǤЋЊͲЋЉЊБЏ Ms. Stromberg said that the TOD Master Plan approved in 2013 required that an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) be completed based on the proposed uses and square footage of the buildings. The EAW process was completed to State Rule requirements and approved by the City Council on July 22, 2013. Staff verified with an environmental consultant familiar with the EAW process that the proposed use as industrial and square footage of the proposed buildings doesn’t trigger the need for another EAW to be completed. Ms. Stromberg reviewed that as part of the EAW, a traffic study was also completed in 2013. Staff asked the petitioner to update the traffic study based on the new site plan. The updated study is attached for your review. The consultant looked at the impacts of the change from a trip generation perspective and provided a general review of the site access and circulation. It concludes that the proposed site is forecasted to generate up to approx. 1,450 new trips on a typical weekday and 170 new trips during both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, which is less than half of the forecast trip generation from the 2013 study. So, overall traffic trip generation will be greatly reduced from the previous plan. It should also be noted that prior to Tiro Industries vacating the site, both Tiro and LaMaur had anywhere from 100 to 400 employees on this site. The petitioner anticipates approximately 300 employees for the user in building #1 and 100 employees for building #2. The traffic study does offer that considering the location of this site to a regional trail and transit station, that bike paths and bike parking areas should be identified on site. Ms Stromberg said that City staff recommends approval of Rezoning Request, ZOA #18-01 to rezone the property at 5601 East River Road from C-3, General Shopping to M-2, Heavy Industrial, with stipulations. City staff also recommends approval of the Text Amendment, TA #18-01 to remove 5601 East River Road from the Northstar TOD Overlay Zoning District. STIPULATIONS City staff recommends the following stipulations if Rezoning Request, ZOA #18-01 is approved. 1.The petitioner shall meet all requirements set forth by: a.the Building Code b.the Fire Code c.the City’s Engineering department – related to grading, drainage, storm pond maintenance agreement, utilities, and utility connection fees d.the City’s Planning department – related to landscaping, signage e.the Mississippi Watershed Management Organization f.the Anoka County Highway Department g.the Minnesota Department of Transportation 2.A development agreement between the petitioner and the City outlining the Developer’s public/private site improvements will be prepared by the City and shall be signed by the petitioner prior to issuance of a building permit for the first building. The Development Agreement shall include but is not limited to the following: streets, utilities, landscape, the thth disposition of eastern private driveway when 57 Avenue is extended, ponding needed for the 57 Avenue extension, multi-model access from the subject property, and park dedication fees. Commissioner Heintz asked if there is a stoplight when you come out of the facility. Ms. Stromberg replied yes there currently is. Commissioner Schwankl asked if there would be a change in landscaping with the change of the zoning. /źƷǤƚŅCƩźķƌĻǤtƌğƓƓźƓŭ/ƚƒƒźƭƭźƚƓaĻĻƷźƓŭƚŅCĻĬƩǒğƩǤЋЊͲЋЉЊБА Ms. Stromberg replied that the same requirements apply to both commercial and industrial zoning. Based on the size of the proposed building, there will be a need for 350-400 trees on the site. Scott Hickok, Community Development Director, added that in the TOD there were some reductions built into the language in exchange for public art. This doesn’t exist in the standard zoning. There will also be connections for those getting off the bus, walkways on the site and bike opportunities. Commissioner Schwankl said that 300 employees are anticipated on this site and some will be taking the bus and/or train; she asked if there would be adequate parking. Ms. Stromberg replied that the petitioner would provide adequate parking on site and this requirement has been met. Mr. Hickok added that there is a provision in City code for proof of parking. If employees are taking other means of transportation they may not need that many parking stalls, so the code is flexible that way. John Allen , Owner of the Property, said that the main reason he acquired this site in 2012 is because it was in the City of Fridley. He has done redevelopment in Fridley for almost 25 years. When he bought the site, he knew something impressive could be done on this site. He tried to bring residential but didn’t see this as a good site for that or for senior living. He received a call from someone who would like to use this site; Curtis 1000. They are rolling up a group of companies into one company bringing over 300 jobs to this facility. This will be the headquarters in the metropolitan area. Fridley offers excellent transportation opportunities like bus, Northstar Rail and easy access to the freeway systems. Fridley has become the center of the metropolitan area and has a reputation of being a good place to do business. He said the second building will more than likely be built this year too with a possible medical lab tenant. The design for this facility will look more like corporate headquarters and not an industrial building. This is an opportunity to bring a national company to consolidate their business and create an impact on this site that was vacant for many years. Chair Oquist asked if Mr. Allen had any questions on the stipulations. Mr. Allen replied no. Commissioner Hansen asked if the sidewalk would extend from building one to building two. Mr. Allen replied that is the intention. MOTION by Commissioner Heintz to close the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner Hansen.

UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIR OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY 4.Consideration of a Comprehensive Plan Amendment, CP #18-01, by the City of Fridley, to consider an amendment to Fridley’s 2030 Comprehensive Plan, to change the master plan description for a 25.5 acre parcel located at 5601 East River Road, generally located in the northeast corner of East River Rd and I-694, from mixed use to heavy industrial. MOTION by Commissioner Hansen to open the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner Heintz. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIR OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING OPENED AT 7:48 P.M. Scott Hickok, Community Development Director, stated that in 2015, the City Council approved a minor comprehensive plan amendment to Chapter 4, Economic and Redevelopment Plan. The purpose of the amendment was to incorporate the Northstar Transit Oriented Development Overlay Zoning District Master Plan into the City’s 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The Northstar TOD Master Plan included language regarding the site at 5601 East River Road being master planned for a mixed use development. Mr. Hickok said that Staff has verified with the Metropolitan Council staff that a decision to change the development plan for 5601 East River Road will require a minor amendment to Fridley’s 2030 Comprehensive Plan. This change, if submitted, would be considered administratively by the Metropolitan Council staff and should only take a couple of weeks. However, they cannot initiate such a request until a resolution is approved by the City Council. Therefore, if the City approves a zoning change for 5601 East River Road to Industrial zoning and further approves a text amendment to remove the site from the Northstar TOD Overlay Zoning District, then the process for a minor comprehensive plan amendment should also occur. These land use changes, if approved, for a minor comprehensive plan amendment will also need to be reflected in the City’s draft 2040 Comprehensive Plan before submitting it to the Metropolitan Council. Mr. Hickok stated that Staff recommends the Commission hold a public hearing regarding this minor comprehensive plan amendment CP #18-01 and recommends approval to the City Council. /źƷǤƚŅCƩźķƌĻǤtƌğƓƓźƓŭ/ƚƒƒźƭƭźƚƓaĻĻƷźƓŭƚŅCĻĬƩǒğƩǤЋЊͲЋЉЊБВ MOTION by Commissioner Heintz to close the public hearing.
