Motion carried. D. PUBLIC HEARINGS 1. Consider Application 2006-22 for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a privately owned Community Center at 5736 Lakeland Avenue North. Mr. Zimmermann stated that there was a revised version of the application was received, and the commissioners have been given a copy of the revised staff report, along with 2 letters objecting to the CUP for the community center, that were also received by the city. Zimmerman stated that he would summarize the staff report briefly. Mr. Zimmerman summarized the staff report outlining the findings of fact of the original application and then summarized the staff report on the revised proposal. Discussion commenced amongst the commissioners about the parking requirements, and other clarification on this issue. Mr. Zimmermann stated that the alternate CUP would be for. classroom/educational services only. Revised floor and site plans would need to be submitted. West Metro Fire will review the revised floor plans and make their recommendations. The conditions that are stated in the revised staff report must be met prior to any use or occupancy. Public Hearing opened. L Public Hearing closed. Discussion continued among the commissioners and staff. Henry Addy stated that he would like to start very soon and this is the third time he has submitted applications. Addy stated the revised plans could be to the city this week, and asked the commission to please consider his request. Mr. Zimmerman and Mr. Sutter explained what is required for applications and how those requirements are communicated to applicants. Mr. Sutter also stated that the commission could possibly recommend to the council to deny the original proposal and then continue the revised proposal until the February meeting. That would give the applicant time to get the submission to the city and staff could send out a revised notice of the original public hearing to the neighbors. Commissioner Hester asked if there were other materials that the commission should review prior to making a decision. Mr. Sutter and Mr. Zimmermann explained that even if the revised request is approved tonight, the applicant would still need to show a parking -compliant floor plan, and make the. interior building modifications, prior to any use of the space. Moved by Commissioner Buck and seconded by Commissioner Sears to recommend to City Council to deny Application 2006-22 for an alternate Conditional Use Permit to allow a privately -owned Community Center/Church at 5736 Lakeland Ave N. Moved by Commissioner VonRueden and seconded by Nystrom to continue Application 2006-22 for an alternate CUP for classroom/educational services until the February meeting. Roll call vote: Sears, Davis Whitenack vote nay, Nystrom, VonRueden, Buck, Hester, Scheibe, and Strand vote aye. Motion carried. Mr. Addy expressed his concerns to the commission about his previous applications. M. Zimmerman stated the reasons for the denial of the two previous applications. Mr. Sutter stated the city's policy for accepting applications and the requirements that go along with the application. 2. Consider Application 2006-23 for a Variance to allow office building expansion at 5747 West Broadway Mr. Zimmermann summarized the staff report. Chair Whitenack asked if the setback was 5' when the building was built. Mr. Zimmerman stated there were no setbacks in place at that the time it was built. Public hearing opened. Joseph Squires, 5744 West Broadway expressed his concerns and asked that the commission deny the variance. Public hearing closed. Discussion took place with the commissioners and staff. Commissioner Sears expressed his concerns about traffic. Mr. Squire expressed his concerns about traffic and safety. Commissioner Sears concurred. Mr. Zimmermann stated that there is an existing curb cut on Kentucky. Mr. Sutter stated road has a rural section and the county has discussed turning this segment of the road back to the Cities of Crystal, New Hope and Brooklyn Park. Staff recommends putting in the parking lot if the variance is approved, but the applicant does not need the variance to build the parking lot. Commissioner Scheibe asked if the title company was in the building now or would they be new and was that the reason for the parking lot. She expressed her concerns with traffic in the area, and questioned whether the addition could be added to a different part of the building. Mr. Zimmermann could not verify whether the title company is new, and confirmed that the building is nonconforming so expansion is not possible. Chair Whitenack asked when the building was constructed. Staff concurred that it was built in the 1960s. Moved by Commissioner VonRueden, seconded by Commissioner Sears to recommend to the City Council to deny Application 2006-23 for a Variance to allow office building expansion at 5747 West Broadway. Motion carried. E. OLD BUSINESS 1. Consider Application 2006-14 for Planned Development (Preliminary Plat, Rezoning, and Site & Building Plan Review) for a 4 story, 75 -dwelling -unit senior cooperative on a portion of the property at 3420 Nevada Avenue North. Mr. Sutter summarized the staff report. Mr. Sutter pointed out exhibits I and J are new items that the developer has submitted to address the questions and concerns previously expressed by the commission. Discussion took place with the commissioners and staff. Commissioner Sears expressed his concerns about fire safety. Mr. Sutter stated that West Metro is talking with the developer about the size of the cul-de-sac for better access, and staff has not yet received West Metro's final comments. Chair Whitenack expressed his concerns about this building on this particular site. Commissioner Buck concurred. Dave Dahl, of 3501 Louisiana Ave N stated his concerns about the height, location, design and other aspects of this building and this project. Dahl also expressed his concern about the recent zoning ordinance text -amendment. Chair Whitenack asked Mr. Sutter why the commission is being asked to put this back another month. Mr. Sutter replied that staff felt that the commission needs time to review materials and see the site, and also that the commission's action didn't occur prior to the provisions going into effect. Commissioner Davis stated that he was pleased to see the efforts that were made by the developer. Moved by Commissioner Davis and seconded by Commissioner Nystrom to recommend to continue Application 2006-14 for Planned Development (Preliminary Plat, Rezoning, and Site and Building Plan Review) for a 4 -story, 75 -dwelling -unit senior cooperative on a portion of the property at 3240 Nevada Avenue North to the February Planning Commission meeting, with acceptance of public comment at the meeting.

The meeting adjourned at 8:50 p.m. Chair Whitenack Secretary Hester M E M O R A N D U M DATE: February 6, 2007 TO: Planning Commission (February 12th meeting) FROM: John Sutter, City Planner SUBJECT: CONTINUED FROM JANUARY 8, 2007 MEETING: Consider Application 2006-14 for Planned Development (Preliminary Plat, Rezoning, and Site & Building Plan Review) for a 4 story, 75 -dwelling -unit senior cooperative on a portion of the property at 3420 Nevada Avenue North. In the interest of paper and energy conservation, please refer to the staff report and exhibits previously provided for the January 8, 2007 meeting. If you need another copy of that report, please contact Valerie at (763) 531-1072 and she will provide it to you. A. BACKGROUND Since the previous Planning Commission meeting, the developer has met with representatives of the Barcelona Apartments. In response to concerns about the building height and setback, the developer has submitted a revised site plan (attached) showing the main north wall of the building set back 60 feet from the north lot line. B. STAFF COMMENTS The revised site plan would still require a building height setback waiver from the north lot line. However, the waiver would reduce the setback by approximately 3 feet versus the approximately 30 foot waiver previously requested by the developer. The word `approximately' is used because building height is measured from the average finished grade around the perimeter of the building, and the building height may be slightly different due to the revised site plan. In any case, the revised site plan shows that the main north wall would be set back 60 feet from the north lot line; or 59 feet measured to the 1 foot bump -out at the northeast corner of the building. C. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the application, subject to: a. compliance with the conditions recommended in the staff report for the January 8, 2007 meeting; and b. the project being modified in accordance with the revised site plan attached to this staff report for the February 12, 2007 meeting, showing the main north wall of the proposed building being 60 feet from the north lot line; and PLANNED DEVELOPMENT - FEB. 12, 2007 PLAN COMM MTG - APPLEWOOD POINTE (3420 NEVADA) PAGE 1 OF 3 C. submittal of revised detailed site and building plans prepared in compliance with (a) and (b) above for staff review and approval prior to action by the City Council. 2. A waiver from the east and west setbacks should be granted in accordance with 515.57 Subd. 3 f). Specifically, we recommend that the building height setback requirements from the east and west boundaries of Lot 1 be waived and a 30 foot building setback shall be imposed. Recommended findings of fact to support the waiver are as follows: a. The proposed density, 20 units per acre, is less than the maximum of 22 units per acre allowed in High Density Residential areas. The 4 story height is not being used as a way to maximize the number of units allowed by the city on the site. b. Compared with a 3 story building, a 4 story building results in a smaller footprint on the site and more open space. C. The proposed development represents a type of housing called for in the Comprehensive Plan (pp. 60-66) and is consistent with the needs of the community due to an aging population. Furthermore, the proposed development would provide a type of senior housing not presently available in Crystal. d. The adjacent land uses will not be subject to significant impacts if the waiver is granted and the project is approved as proposed. Specifically: i) To the east, the development site faces the rear of an institutional use, Olivet Baptist Church. As the current owner of the proposed development site, they have endorsed the project as proposed. The waiver would have no significant impact on their facility's operations. ii) To the west, the development site faces industrial property in the City of New Hope. Notice was provided to the City of New Hope and no objections have been received. The waiver would have no significant impact on those land uses. 3. A waiver from the north setback should be granted in accordance with 515.57 Subd. 3 f). Specifically, we recommend that the building height setback requirements from the north boundary of Lot 1 be waived and a 60 foot building setback shall be imposed, measured to the main north wall of the building; or 59 feet measured to the 1 foot bump -out at the northeast corner of the building. Recommended findings of fact to support the waiver are as follows: a. The proposed density, 20 units per acre, is less than the maximum of 22 units per acre allowed in High Density Residential areas. The 4 story PLANNED DEVELOPMENT - FEB. 12, 2007 PLAN COMM MTG - APPLEWOOD POINTE (3420 NEVADA) PAGE 2 OF 3 height is not being used as a way to maximize the number of units allowed by the city on the site. b. Compared with a 3 story building, a 4 story building results in a smaller footprint on the site and more open space. C. The proposed development represents a type of housing called for in the Comprehensive Plan (pp. 60-66) and is consistent with the needs of the community due to an aging population. Furthermore, the proposed development would provide a type of senior housing not presently available in Crystal d. The adjacent land uses will not be subject to significant impacts if the waiver is granted and the project is approved as proposed. Specifically: i) To the north, the development site faces the Barcelona Apartments at 3501 Louisiana Avenue North. This property is zoned and guided High Density Residential. The waiver will have no significant impact on the Barcelona Apartments for the following reasons: ■ From the south face of the Barcelona Apartments to the north face of the proposed Applewood Pointe project, the distance would be 154 feet. In an urbanized area, it is not unusual or unreasonable for a resident to look out their window and see another building 154 feet away. Taking the 75 foot elevation differential (from the ground elevation at the Barcelona Apartments to peak of the proposed Applewood Pointe roof) and dividing it by the 186 foot horizontal distance (from the south face of the Barcelona Apartments to the peak of the proposed Applewood Pointe roof), the result is an angle of less than 220. 50 of this is due to the existing topography, so the portion attributable to the proposed building is less than 170. These sorts of angles from the ground elevation at one building to the top of another are reasonable and appropriate for high density residential property. For that matter, they would be appropriate for any property in any developed environment, even one guided for less intense uses than High Density Residential. The two buildings would only overlap by approximately 60 feet, meaning that the remaining approximately 230 feet of the south face of the Barcelona Apartments would not directly face the Applewood Pointe building in any case. Planning Commission action is requested on the staff recommendation, comprising items C (1), (2) and (3) above.

This is being done to facilitate discussion by the Council regarding the selection process. The next possible date for the City Council to make appointments would be at its February 20, 2007 meeting. This would mean that the timetable would be delayed approximately one month, so that the first task force meetinq would likely not occur until March 22, 2007. We apologize for any inconvenience, and once again we appreciate your interest in serving your community in this manner.
