JULY 1, 2021 Minutes accepted as presented. PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING a. GREENWAY STATION BUS RAPID TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT i. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TEXT AND MAP AMENDMENT ii. ZONING ORDINANCE TEXT AND MAP AMENDMENT Planner Shively presented a Comprehensive Plan Text and Zoning Ordinance Text and Map Amendment in detail and explained that the items on the agenda were all related to implementation of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Both items related to the areas around the two planned Transit Planning Commission Minutes August 5, 2021 Page Two Stations on the Gold Line Bus Rapid Transit line – one at Greenway Avenue North and Hudson Blvd North and one at Helmo Avenue North south of 3rd Street North. Ms. Shively noted that in anticipation of these new transit facilities the City undertook a planning process to look at land use and circulation in the station areas with the goal of enhancing the vitality of the area, fostering transit ridership through transit-supportive land uses, and creating more safe and pleasant pedestrian and bicycle connections in the neighborhoods and to the transit stations. The outcome of those planning process were the Greenway Station Area Plan and the Helmo Station Area Plan. Planner Shively stated that in order to accomplish the goals in the plan, the City uses various tools. The first is the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan contained the goals and policies that would address current and emerging issues in the City over the next 10 to 20 years. Ms. Shively explained that the Helmo Station Small Area Plan was incorporated into the Comprehensive Plan as an appendix. The same was intended for the Greenway Station Small Area Plan. The Comprehensive Plan also applied the specific goals and policies articulated in the Small Area plan to particular parcels. For the Greenway Station Area, there were five parcels where this would apply. Planner Shively stated the next tool was the Zoning Ordinance which helped implement the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan by setting the framework for permitted uses and performance standards. The Zoning Ordinance for the Greenway Station Area was very similar to what was in place for the Helmo Station Area. Like the Comprehensive Plan, the new zoning district would be applied to those five parcels. Ms. Shively shared that even though the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance was proposed to change for those parcels, existing businesses may remain for as long as they wish. However, if a change in use or redevelopment was proposed, the new standards would apply. To summarize, Planner Shively clarified that these policy changes start with the planning process to consider the opportunities and constraints in the area and set the goals. Then, the Comprehensive Plan was amended to incorporate those goals and policies into the City’s plan. After that, the zoning ordinance was put in place with the uses and standards to realize the vision for the area and redevelopment on specific parcels in the station area was compatible with adjacent land uses and created a safe, vibrant station environment that fostered transit ridership. In response to a question from Commissioner Pierson, Ms. Shively shared that regarding these subject properties, there were no changes on the parcels regarding values or taxes, which was determined by the County Assessor. She explained that if redevelopment were to occur, then there may be a change in the taxes to reflect that new development. In response to a question from Commissioner Pierson, Planner Shively noted that any of these property owners could sell for redevelopment that would be compatible with the new plans. She Planning Commission Minutes August 5, 2021 Page Three further clarified that these businesses would operate under the current Zoning Ordinances under the current use, until the use changes or the business sells for redevelopment. In response to a question from Commissioner Diatta, Ms. Shively explained that the pre-existing business would be legally non-conforming or grandfathered in. She further shared that a State Statute that carried forward to our local ordinances stated, any use in existence when rules change was allowed to continue. The property owner could rebuild the building, put new siding on or redo the parking lot. The property owner could not expand or change the use or the new rules would apply. Ms. Shively shared that if the property became vacant for more than one year, then the use changed, and the new rules would apply. In response to a question from Commissioner Campbell, Planner Shively explained first the Comprehensive Plan needed to be changed and then the zoning needed to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. In response to a question from Commissioner Diatta, Ms. Shively shared that the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning should match, and ideally changes should happen at the same time, or one follows immediately after the other. In response to a question from Commissioner Willenbring, Planner Shively noted that Oakdale Zoning Ordinances are very specific with commercial uses. She mentioned that a business may appeal those ordinances to the City Council. Chair Milles opened the Public Hearing and asked if there were any speakers. Attorney Mr. John Worrell, representing property owner, Joe McKasy, 6740 Hudson Boulevard asked the Planning Commission to oppose the zoning changes. Mr. Al Stroschein, 19 Greenway Avenue North, opposes the proposed project. In response to a question from Mrs. Beth Stroschein, 19 Greenway Avenue North, Ms. Shively identified the number of parcels in the project area. Business owner Mr. David Olson, Low Voltage Integrators, Inc., at 6592 Hudson Boulevard, opposes the proposed project. Business owner Mr. James Alberg, 2.25 acre parcel adjacent to United Rentals, stated his support for the proposed project. Ms. Chris Johnson, 6719 1st St N., opposes the proposed project. Jeanette Hadd, 6703 1st St N., opposes proposed project. Chair Milles asked if there were any others who wished to speak. Hearing none, she closed the Public Hearing. She asked if the Commissioners had any other questions. Planning Commission Minutes August 5, 2021 Page Four Commissioner Pierson shared with the group that the Planning Commission was an advisory group and all decisions were made at the City Council. Vice Chair Diatta shared that he appreciated all those that voiced their opinions. In response to a question from Commissioner Stolarski, Ms. Shively explained once the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance changes, it is in place until another action was taken by the City Council to make another change. She further stated that changes occur when a new condition in an area leads to that change, for example a brand new transit line that would be coming through the area. Ms. Shively shared that one of the main focuses of the Greenway Station Bus Rapid Transit Oriented Development, is on connections to the transit station and also throughout the neighborhood as currently there are no sidewalks in the area. Placing this land use piece into the Comprehensive Plan sets the intention of the City Council to make those investments with the goal of improving safety and comfort for bicyclists and pedestrians throughout the neighborhood. In response to a question from Commissioner Campbell, Planner Shively noted that if a new developer asked for a rezoning of their property, it would need to accomplish the goals in the Greenway Station Area Plan. Commissioner Campbell answered some of the questions asked by earlier speakers. He shared that currently if the proposed project was approved as is, there would be 85 – 210 multi-family units built in the entire four acre site, the maximum height of the buildings is four stories or 40 feet, and the setback from the rear of the property line would be 30 to 40 feet. Commissioner Campbell shared that he would be approving the Comprehensive Plan Text and Map Amendment and would be opposing the Zoning Ordinance Text and Map Amendment. In response to a question from Commissioner Willenbring, Planner Shively stated that if the land is not rezoned, there is no restriction to the Bus Rapid Transit (BRC) line. In response to a question from Commissioner Pierson, Planner Shively explained that the Comprehensive Plan sets the intent for the area. The zoning should be in alignment with that intent. If someone came in and requested a zoning change, the request would need to be consistent with the Comprehensive plan. In response to a question from Commissioner Pierson, Planner Shively shared that the height of the Bethesda project at the Helmo Station Plan area was limited to three stories. Commissioner Pierson shared that he would propose the City Council consider what was done with the Helmo Station and perhaps limit the Greenway Station Plan area to a three story building. In response to a question from Commissioner Boullianne, Planner Shively stated the Commissioners may vote to approve the Comprehensive Plan piece and deny the Zoning Ordinance piece. In response to a question from Commissioner Willenbring, Planner Shively explained the types of uses for this area which is close to the freeway, were typically commercial or multi-family uses. Planning Commission Minutes August 5, 2021 Page Five In response to a question from Commissioner Campbell, Planner Shively stated the multi-family parking is guided at 1.5 spaces per unit maximum, for this proposed project. This is the City’s standard for Multi-Family buildings with very good transit access. In response to a question from Commissioner Pierson, Planner Shively shared the City wanted to make these transit areas a walkable area, and not car centric. Commissioner Campbell noted that a 1.5 parking space allotment is common. In response to a question from Commissioner Boullianne, Planner Shively explained for the Greenway Station Bus area, the Comprehensive Plan would need to be amended for the Economic Development Authority to fund the proposed project, if it were deemed appropriate in the future. In response to a question from Commissioner Pierson, Planner Shively shared how to make specific recommendations to the City Council. In response to a question from Mr. Stroschein, Ms. Shively explained this area is very close to the freeways and there would be great access. This area would also be very close to transit that would run all day. There was further discussion among the Commissioners.

PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW a. HELMO STATION REDEVELOPMENT PLAN: CONFORMANCE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Planner Shively presented a detailed explanation of the Planning Commission’s role in affirming the finding that the Helmo Station Redevelopment Project Area and Redevelopment Plan was consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, and to pass a resolution to that effect. Ms. Shively explained that the Helmo Station Area had the tools of the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance in place, and as development occurs, the City has other tools to help implement the goals for the neighborhood. She shared that by establishing the Helmo Station Redevelopment Project Area and Redevelopment Plan, it met these goals. Planner Shively explained that just like the zoning ordinance, the plan must be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Ms. Shively stated the Helmo Station Redevelopment Plan was found in the Comprehensive Plan as the Helmo Station Small Area Plan, and further explained that the Economic Development Authority (EDA) of the City is the body that would determine when to utilize additional tools, including financial assistance to implement the goals and policies in the plan for development and redevelopment. In response to a question from Commissioner Campbell, Planner Shively stated that this would establish the Redevelopment Plan Area and the Project Area and it was within the area that financial tools such as TIF (Tax Increment Financing) could be utilized if the EDA made that determination. In response to a question from Commissioner Pierson, Planner Shively shared that by putting the District and Project Area into place now allows for those financial tools to be utilized. Planning Commission Minutes August 5, 2021 Page Seven In response to a question from Commissioner Campbell, Ms. Shively explained that anywhere in the Project Area the EDA could use those tools, such as TIF. In response to a question from Commissioner Boullianne, Ms. Shively shared that within the Project Area, utilizing the Redevelopment Tools available would be consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan.
