APPROVAL OF MINUTES Moved by Sears and seconded by Heigel to approve the minutes of the June 14, 2021 regular meeting. Ayes: all. Nays: None Motion carried. 3. PUBLIC HEARING a. Subdivision request (preliminary plat) from Mahmoud Abumayyaleh for Crystal Flats at 6613 – 36th Avenue North (Application 2021-05). Olson presented a summary of the staff report and stated he is recommending approval of the subdivision. Commission member Strand asked if the former home was accessed by the alley. Olson said yes. Strand said she is concerned that during home construction there will be disruptions to those who access their property from the alley. Strand asked how the covenant in condition #2 is enforced. Olson said that the document would spell out the responsibilities of each property owner and is then recorded against both properties. Commission member Seffren asked if the existing sanitary sewer connection is sufficiently sized to provide service for both lots. Olson said yes. Unapproved Planning Commission Minutes – August 9, 2021 Chair Selton opened the public hearing. A first Crystal resident said she lives adjacent to this property and she is concerned that the property lines were not clearly marked by the surveyor who created the plat. She also wondered if the applicant will underground all existing alley overhead utilities. She is concerned that these homes will drain onto her property. She said there is not room enough on this property for two homes. Olson said any new utilities would be buried underground. A second Crystal resident began to make a comment but interrupted herself midway to say that she’ll let her husband speak to their concerns. A third Crystal resident said he is concerned about increased traffic in the alley for two new homes. He is not in the favor of the application. Olson said that the applicant has provided sufficient off-street parking since parking would not be allowed in the alley and overnight parking is not allowed on Hampshire. A fourth Crystal resident said she’s opposed to the application because it will bring too much traffic to the alley and she will lose enjoyment of her property. She has spent a lot of time improving her property and she will lose the value of that investment. A fifth Crystal resident said that each lot will not be 50’ wide and that according to the zoning requirements, homes cannot face the alley. He said the lots are too small for this neighborhood. Johnson assumed the Chair position while Selton stepped out momentarily. A sixth Crystal resident said he believes it will be very difficult for existing homeowners to access the alley during construction. Olson said the city adopted a construction management process a few years ago and that provides a way to address any construction issues. We also meet with the builder before construction to make the city’s expectations clear. A seventh Crystal resident said the lot is too small for two homes and this project will have a negative impact on the beauty of the creek area. Hearing no one else from the public who wished to speak, Johnson closed the public hearing. Commission member Heigel asked the applicant how he will make sure the construction will not be unreasonably difficult on the neighbors. Mr. Abumayyaleh said he will cooperate with whatever the city requires. Heigel asked the applicant what was the result of the soil testing. Mr. Abumayyaleh said the soil was adequate where the homes will be constructed. Commission member Seffren said he was concerned that the alley was too narrow to support parking for two new homes. Seffren also asked Olson about the question that the new lots were not 50’ in width. Olson said that the zoning code allows for lot dimensions to be rounded up and since each lot is 49.6’ in width, that can be rounded up to 50’. The surveyor also said this lot was platted as a 100’ wide lot decades ago Unapproved Planning Commission Minutes – August 9, 2021 and when the adjacent lots were subsequently replatted, they have overlapped an inch or two into this property, causing confusion to the lot width. Commission Chair Selton returned to the meeting. Commission member Buck asked where the UDC prohibits homes facing an alley. One of the residents who spoke previously said it is found in City Code section 525.05, Subd. 10. Olson said the homes were required to face the alley to avoid negative impacts to the creek. Commission member Strand said she didn’t like the fact that the sanitary sewer was shared for both properties and she didn’t like that we were going to require signs on the property to direct people to the homes on the alley. She said during construction the alley will be too narrow to support all of the construction traffic. She will not be voting for this project. The seventh Crystal resident asked if the alley could support additional garbage trucks. Commission member Seffren asked Olson if the UDC prohibited homes facing the alley. Olson said he thought it was an existing condition since the previous home had faced the alley. City Code section 525.05 was adopted in 2018. Seffren said he is not in favor of this application. Sears said that he heard from those making comments that additional traffic was an important reason why they did not want two homes, but were okay with one home on the lot. Olson said that the City Council approved various new UDC requirements to increase density, including reducing lot area, lot width and allowing accessory dwelling units. Commission member strand said increased density is not a good idea for this specific property. Moved by Strand and seconded by Seffren to recommend denial to the City Council of the subdivision application at 6613 – 36th Avenue North. Ayes: Strand, Buck, Sears, Einfeldt-Brown, Johnson, Seffren, and Heigel. Nays: Selton. Olson asked what were the Findings of Fact for the recommendation. The Commission agreed that the main finding for denial is that the homes would face the alley, in contradiction to the UDC. Motion carried. 4. OLD BUSINESS - None 5. NEW BUSINESS - None 6. GENERAL INFORMATION Unapproved Planning Commission Minutes – August 9, 2021 • City Council actions on previous Planning Commission items: Olson stated that the Council approved the variance at 3556 Major Ave N and construction of the new home has begun. • Update from Council Liaison: City Council liaison Brendan Banks was not present at the meeting. • Staff preview of likely agenda items for Monday, September 13, 2021 meeting. Olson said he is expecting a site plan application for the September meeting, but that the deadline to apply is not until next week. 7. OPEN FORUM Commission member Buck asked Olson what the new construction is along Highway 81. Olson said that is the Midwest Water Sports addition at 5160 West Broadway. The site plan was approved by the City Council in 2020. Commission member Seffren asked about the Verizon cell tower. Olson said they have until next January to apply for the building permit. Commission Sears said the Commission might consider future discussions about whether the city should have 50’ wide residential lots. That lot size creates parking issues. Strand added that she moved to Crystal to not be in higher density areas. 8. ADJOURNMENT Moved by Sears and seconded by Buck to adjourn. Ayes: All. Nays: None Motion carried. The meeting adjourned at 8:28 p.m. 4741 WELCOME AVENUE NORTH – SITE PLAN APPLICATION PAGE 1 OF 4 ___________________________________________________________________________ FROM: Dan Olson, City Planner ___________________________________________________________________________ TO: Planning Commission (for September 13 Meeting) DATE: September 8, 2021 RE: PUBLIC HEARING – Site plan review request from Gernco Construction for a new four-unit residential building at 4741 Welcome Avenue North (Application 2021-06) A. BACKGROUND Gernco Construction is proposing to purchase the vacant property at 4741 Welcome Ave North from the City’s Economic Development Authority (EDA) in order to construct a four-unit residential building on the property. The property is zoned Medium Density Residential (R-2) and the proposed building is a permitted use within that zoning district. The city’s unified development code (UDC) requires site plan review and approval for the new building and site improvements. Notice of the September 13 public hearing was published in the Sun Post on September 2, mailed to owners and renters within 500 feet (see attachment A), and posted to the Welcome Park and Cavanagh Oaks neighborhoods on Nextdoor. A sign was also posted on the property. Attachments: A. Site location map showing public hearing notification area B. Existing zoning map C. Project narrative D. Site plan (7 sheets) PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Site plan review for 4741 Welcome Ave N 4741 WELCOME AVENUE NORTH – SITE PLAN APPLICATION PAGE 2 OF 4 B. SITE PLAN REVIEW Existing use The 14,119 sq. ft. (0.32 acre) property is currently vacant. Previously there was a 4-plex on the property that was built in 1960 and demolished in 2010. Adjacent uses The following are the existing land uses and zoning districts surrounding this property: • North – Single-family home zoned R-2 • East – Office, zoned Industrial • West – Across alley, single-family homes zoned R-1 • South – 4-plex, zoned R-2 Proposed use The applicant is proposing to construct a new two-story four-unit residential building. The following are the notable site plan elements for this building: • Building setbacks. The proposed 25’ tall townhome-style building meets setback and height requirements in the R-2 district. The size of each of the four units are found in the table below. Unit Number First Floor Second Floor Total Living Space Garage A 623 SF 1,063 SF 1,686 SF 419 SF B 730 SF 1,314 SF 2,044 SF 419 SF C 730 SF 1,063 SF 1,686 SF 419 SF D 623 SF 1,314 SF 2,044 SF 419 SF • Parking. Each unit will have a garage for two vehicles with additional parking spaces in the driveways for each unit. This parking meets UDC requirements. • Stormwater management and erosion control measures. The city engineer has reviewed the stormwater management plan submitted by the applicant and determined that it meets the city’s requirements in city code section 520.17. The plan proposes to install two french drains in the front yards facing Welcome Avenue. French drains have an underground pipe that funnels stormwater into the city’s stormwater infrastructure, similar to a raingarden. The proposed percentage of impervious surface for the vacant property is 60.9% (the maximum coverage is 75% for the R-2 zoning district). During building construction the city will require erosion control techniques to be used on-site including silt fences, rock construction entrances, and inlet protection. • Utilities. The proposed building’s service connections will be to existing water and sewer mains in Welcome Avenue. The only overhead utility lines are existing poles located along the alley. 4741 WELCOME AVENUE NORTH – SITE PLAN APPLICATION PAGE 3 OF 4 • Access and circulation. The site plan proposes driveway access for two units from Welcome Avenue and from the rear alley for the other two units. The city’s Public Works Director and the West Metro Fire Rescue District staff have reviewed the traffic circulation plan and found it adequate to meet vehicle movement into and within the site. There are no existing public sidewalks on the property and none planned. However there are proposed private sidewalks from the unit entrances to Welcome Avenue. • Building elevations. The proposed major exterior building material is vinyl lap siding with brick and stone veneer as accent materials. These materials meet the city’s requirements. Each unit will have a deck on the side of the building. Elevation drawings of the proposed building is attachment D. • Landscaping. The landscape plan calls for the removal of two large arbovitaes facing Welcome Avenue and volunteer trees along the alley. The applicant proposes to plant three new species of trees: American linden, Kentucky coffee trees, and Japanese tree lilacs. Two varieties of shrubs will also be planted. • Screening. Ground mechanical equipment is proposed to be screened by shrubs. • Exterior Lighting. The building will have wall-mounted exterior lighting similar to what is found on a typical single-family home. This lighting meets the city’s requirements. C. Site plan review criteria The following are the relevant criteria for approval of site plans in city code section 510.17. 1. The site plan fully complies with all applicable requirements of the UDC. Findings: As outlined in section B, above, the proposed site plan meets UDC requirements. 2. The site plan is consistent with the use and character of surrounding properties. Findings: The property was formerly used for a 4-plex and with the approval of this site plan that use will continue in a modern updated form. The immediate area has a mix of low and medium density residential properties and commercial buildings. The proposed four- unit building is consistent with this character. 3. The site plan provides safe conditions for pedestrians or motorists and prevents the dangerous arrangement of pedestrian and vehicular ways. Findings: The city’s Public Works Director and staff from the West Metro Fire Rescue District have reviewed the site’s traffic circulation plan and found it adequate to meet vehicle movement into and within 4741 WELCOME AVENUE NORTH – SITE PLAN APPLICATION PAGE 4 OF 4 the site. There is no public sidewalk directly accessing the property and none planned, however the applicant is installing private sidewalks to each unit’s front door. D. REQUESTED ACTION The Planning Commission is asked to make a recommendation to the City Council to either deny or approve the site plan application to allow a new four-unit residential building at 4741 Welcome Avenue North. This recommendation should include findings of fact either for or against the proposal. The Commission may reference the findings for approval in sections B and C, above. Staff recommends approval of the site plan review application with the following conditions: 1. The development shall be constructed according to the site plan in attachment D. 2. The property owner shall install and maintain an address directional sign in the locations shown on the approved site plan (the exact language to be reviewed and approved by city staff). If the site plan is approved, the applicant anticipates starting construction of the building this year. City Council action is anticipated on September 21, 2021. Site Location and Public Hearing Notice Mailing Map 4741 Welcome Ave N 4141 Douglas Dr. N. Crystal MN 55422 Attachment A Zoning Map 4741 Welcome Ave N 4141 Douglas Dr. N. Crystal MN 55422 Attachment B SITE PLAN PROJECT NARRATIVE Subject Project: New Quadplex construction 4741 Welcome Avenue Zoning District: The property is currently zoned R-2 Medium density Residential Current Use of Property: The property is currently a vacant Lot. Proposed Use: The property will be used to construct a new 4-unit townhome styled quadplex Adverse Effect: The proposed use is in accordance with the existing use in the neighborhood. The buildings in the neighborhood are mixed between multiunit residential and single-family homes. So, the proposed use will complement the existing structures in the neighborhood. Each unit in the new building will have a minimum of two car attached garage and their own separate driveways. This will provide sufficient parking for the occupant and the visitors. So, there will be no street parking and interferences with the public and motorists. Also since the building is only 4 units, which is in accordance with the city redevelopment plan, the added density will not increase the traffic in such a way that I can affect the neighborhood negatively. Project Description: The project consists of multifamily (Quadplex) residential building. When completed, the owner will occupy one of the units and rent out the rest of the units Attachment C "' 3: "C N <( X " I ...

BACKGROUND The Planning Commission is asked by City Council to select a member and alternate for a temporary task force called the Joint Airport Zoning Board (JAZB). Minnesota state law requires cities adjacent to airports to have an airport zoning ordinance, which is based on state law and federal regulations. The ordinance primarily focuses on land uses adjacent to the airport and structure height requirements adopted by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Ordinance adoption, administration and enforcement will be handled by each city. The current Crystal airport zoning ordinance was adopted in 1983 and needs to be updated. Other recently approved airport zoning ordinances were for the Lake Elmo airport in 2021 and Flying Cloud airport in 2019. B. ZONING BOARD MEMBERSHIP To prepare an updated ordinance, the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) is forming a Joint Airport Zoning Board (JAZB) per MN Statute 360. The JAZB is what we would call a task force, because it will be disbanded after the updated ordinance is prepared. Drafting the ordinance will be mostly a technical process with limited city policy options. At the August 17, 2021 City Council work session, Council determined the JAZB membership would consist of the following: Members: Dan Olson, city planner and one Planning Commission member Alternates: John Sutter, community development director and another Planning Commission member PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Joint Airport Zoning Board JOINT AIRPORT ZONING BOARD PAGE 2 OF 2 ➢ Alternates will only attend meetings if the respective primary member cannot attend. ➢ JAZB meetings would start in late September or early October. The zoning ordinance creation will likely be completed by late 2022. Meetings would be in the daytime. ➢ On September 21, the Council will be asked to appoint Crystal representatives to the JAZB. C. REQUESTED ACTION The Planning Commission is asked to select a member and alternate for the Joint Airport Zoning Board. The fact that JAZB meetings will be held during the day should be a consideration when making these selections.
