Heartland Dental, Rezoning, Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, Preliminary Plat, Site and Building Plan, Project No. 29-2019-00373, Schilling Place 3rd Addition, Final Plat, Project No. 29-2019-00374 Mayor Burt declared the public hearing open and recognized Mr. Eric Searles, City Planner to give the background. Background Mr. Searles explained that Core States Group had submitted an application for a 3-building commercial development. The Applicant requested approval of a medical office building, a daycare, and commercial building to be located at the southeast corner of Bailey Road and Benjamin Drive. The property is currently zoned R-4, Urban Residential District and guided as Urban Village on the Land Use Plan. In 2011, City Council received a Metropolitan Council Livable Communities Demonstration Account (LCDA) grant to prepare a master plan of the Urban Village Area. The master plan effort was adopted by the City Council in February 2012. This application represents the sixteenth and final application with the Urban Village Area. The property under consideration is located south of Bailey Road, which will see improvements in 2020. These improvements will be completed by Washington County include the following:  Expansion of the road from a 2-lane roadway to a 4-lane roadway with dedicated left and right turn lanes  The intersection of Bailey Road and Woodlane Drive will be upgraded to a roundabout  A new signal will be installed at the intersection of Bailey Road and Benjamin Drive to improve traffic flows  A new trail will be constructed along the south side of Bailey Road from Woodlane Drive to Radio Drive Mr. Searles continued by explaining that only the 4,340 square foot Heartland Dental building is proposed to be reviewed for Site and Building Plan approval at this time. Access to the dental building is provided by a full access point along Finley Road; no access is permitted from Benjamin Drive due to the turn lanes required for the future signalization of Bailey Road and Benjamin Drive. Rezoning, Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit It was pointed out that the Planned Unit Development, (PUD) plans identify the parking to the west of the proposed daycare would be identified as staff parking only. The final design of the daycare and commercial building in the southwest corner of the site will be reviewed and approved via site and Building Plan process in the future. The application under consideration included a Rezoning and PUD. The Rezoning Application is a request to rezone from R-4, Urban Residential District to B-3 Planned Shopping Center District. This request was consistent with the zoning of the adjacent Bielenberg Gardens Development. The PUD application is requested to provide flexibility to the minimum lot size for the proposed commercial land uses. The minimum lot size requirement exists to ensure commercial buildings without a PUD have enough land to accommodate the required stormwater management, open space, and parking. Because this site is served by an existing stormwater reuse pond it is appropriate to reduce the minimum lot size for this application. The existing Bielenberg Gardens PUD contains three parcels that are less than an acre and a half in size; City & County Credit Union, Valvoline, and 3rd Act Craft Brewery. In order to approve a PUD, the application must meet the findings of fact identified in City Code Section 24-206, and to implement said PUD a Conditional Use Permit, (CUP) is also required and City Code Section 24-43 outlines the guidelines for granting a CUP. Pedestrian Movement One of the main design goals of the Urban Village Master Plan was to provide increased walkability and pedestrian infrastructure on all projects. Mr. Searles shared an image of the proposed site area with the proposed sidewalks, existing sidewalks in the development area, existing trails, and the proposed trail along Bailey Road. The proposed system would tie into the existing pedestrian network of St. Therese, Ascend at Woodbury, and Bielenberg Gardens. Parking Page 4 of 15  City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 22, 2020 Parking for the proposed dental clinic is required by code to provide one stall for every 200 square feet of office use. The applicant proposed to install 34 parking spaces to exceed that requirement. The future daycare and commercial uses will be required to meet the parking requirements, which will be reviewed, and compliance ensured through the Site and Building Plan process in the future. As part of approval of this current PUD, a cross access easement will be required to allow visitors and those businesses to utilize any stall within this development. This approach was successfully utilized at the adjacent Bielenberg Gardens Center. Architecture The performance standards for the Urban Village Master Plan area require buildings to be constructed of 70 percent Class I materials with a minimum of 30 percent being stone. The applicant proposed to build the dental office out of over 72 percent Class I materials, including 46 percent stone. The proposed brick and stone match the existing buildings within the Bielenberg Gardens Development and the Ascend at Woodbury apartments. Public Process A neighborhood meeting was held on Tuesday, November 26, 2019 with no residents in attendance. This item was reviewed at the January 13, 2020 Planning Commission Meeting. Commissioner Jennifer Nowacki presented their findings by explaining that the majority of the discussion had to do with the overall site plan. Other items discussed were the parking for the future proposed daycare off of the proposed entry drive with the possibility of parents and children having to cross over the entry roadway; bike racks were a part of the conditions of approval of the overall master plan; the proposed daycare and commercial building will need to be single-story buildings due to the parking restrictions; and one of the commissioners expressed the need for a restaurant within the area. If approved, the applicant expects to start overall site grading this spring. Items discussed regarding the Heartland Dental building itself included a concern over the lack of connectivity to the parking and the building to the north. This project was recommended for approval by the Planning Commission by a vote of 6-0, with a condition added to review pedestrian signage in the overall development as the other two buildings are approved and are known. Mayor Burt moved, seconded by Councilmember Date, to close the public hearing. Voting in Favor: Date, Scoggins, Morris, Santini, Burt Absent: None Mayor Burt opened opportunity for discussion and questions from the Council. Councilmember Morris asked for additional details and clarification of the concerns raised about the crossing of the entry drive by patrons of the future daycare. Mr. Searles responded by pointing out the proposed daycare building and the proposed staff parking area on the graphic on the screen. The concern is that staff would be there in advance of parent drop-off, creating the potential for vehicles backing into the drive lane, not only during the peak times for the daycare use but also peak times for the commercial uses that may occur, including the dental building. Staff was able to get comfortable with the placement and the design of the overall site plan with the condition that was added. From a crossing standpoint, it is anticipated that there may be some and there would be a cross easement that would allow for parking to occur in some of the commercial areas when that is developed. Councilmember Date expressed her concern of having parking right in the drive lane as it seems like something that is typically not done. She asked for examples of that in other areas of the city. Mr. Searles replied that this is unique; however, because of the relatively small size of the parcel, it limits the developability of the site if they were to now allow for parking within this main drive lane. One of the reasons why staff became comfortable by placing staff parking within that area is that it would help mitigate the potential impacts of having parking within that area and does not reduce the developability of the overall parcel. Councilmember Date stated that if it does become a daycare, the functionality of that – of a parent driving down past all of that parking to the outlot; if there is ever a spot available, they are going to pull into it for five minutes and drop their child off. There will still be pull in/pull out activity occurring in the drive lane. Compliance of only allowing staff parking will be hard. As a parent having to deal with parent drop off at daycare, it seems really annoying. To modify the city standards in that way, to provide parking on a drive lane, feels like it is being taken a little far. Mr. Searles explained that staff did evaluate a number of different ways to create the different building pads within this area. At the end, it was identified in order to meet building setbacks, parking setbacks, that a center drive lane was the most effective way to do that. If the concern relates to the daycare use and the amount of information that is under consideration, based on that – this application Page 5 of 15  City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 22, 2020 tonight only addresses the day care use via the PUD process. Council could eliminate the Conditional Use or authorization of the daycare use as a permitted use. That would not preclude it from coming back from applicant standpoint. They would just have to apply for a stand-alone CUP in the future. That would allow the Heartland Dental application and the site plan to move forward. Councilmember Morris pointed out that the drive lane would still be identified as having parking spaces so not including the daycare would not necessarily eliminate the concern. Mr. Searles responded that Council could also identify No Parking along the drive lane. There would still be enough parking for the dental office, but not for the identified daycare use. Councilmember Date suggested that additional research or exploration be done – maybe by installing a drop off lane – some way of getting the parking off of the drive lane. Staff agreed to explore other options. Mr. Clinton Gridley, City Administrator asked clarifying questions; and Council clarified that, regardless of who is parking where, they do not like the function of a drive aisle and inbound/outbound roadway being used together. Mr. Searles suggested that a condition be added that parking along the main drive aisle shall be eliminated. Councilmember Morris asked why the number of parking spaces increased from 22, as required by code, to 34. Mr. Searles replied that dental clinics generally have a higher need than what the city code identifies. Councilmember Morris moved, seconded by Councilmember Date, To adopt the following ordinance ORDINANCE NO. 1975 Ordinance of the City of Woodbury, Washington County, Minnesota rezoning certain property from R-4, Urban Residential District to B-3, Planned Shopping Center District Voting via voice: Andrea Date – aye Amy Scoggins – aye Steve Morris – aye Jennifer Santini – aye Anne Burt – aye Councilmember Morris moved, seconded by Councilmember Date, To adopt the following resolution Resolution 20-20 Resolution of the City of Woodbury, Washington County, Minnesota adopting findings of fact for Heartland Dental, Project 29-2019-00373 with the addition of Condition Number 34 stating that parking along the main drive aisle shall be eliminated.

Voting in Favor: Date, Scoggins, Morris, Santini, Burt Absent: None C. Beyond Apartments, Rezoning, Amended Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, Preliminary Plat and Site and Building Plan, Project No. 02-2019-00379 Mayor Burt declared the public hearing open and recognized Mr. Eric Searles, City Planner to give the background. Background Mr. Searles explained that Roers Investments, LLC submitted an application to construct two apartment buildings containing 255 market rates units to be located in the southwest corner of Hudson Road and Settlers Ridge Parkway. The property is currently zoned Gateway District and Business Campus District and is identified as Mixed Use/High Density on the Land Use Plan. At the August 2019 meeting City Council approved the Sundance Planned Unit Development (PUD). The approval identified the location and construction of Karen Drive which provides access for the future development. The PUD further approved a density transfer to allow for the distribution of units throughout the development area at the 2040 Comprehensive Plan maximum of 15 units per acre. The original acreage allowed for a total of 963 units to be built within the area identified. Using the PUD process to authorize a density transfer is a common practice for the city to increase density within a certain portion of a project area while not exceeding the maximum densities allowed under the Comprehensive Plan. In 2009, 2014, and 2019 the city adopted the Northeast Area Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) as the appropriate planning document for evaluating the cumulative environmental impacts of development within the northeast area. The northeast area is over 500 acres of continuous, mostly undeveloped land along the I-94 corridor. The AUAR included multiple traffic studies which identified the needed traffic mitigation necessary to accommodate the additional vehicles generated by development. The proposed site has direct impacts to operations of Hudson Road and Settlers Ridge Parkway. As development continues to occur in the future a number of roadway improvements, which were identified in the Planning Commission’s staff report, will be needed. The timing and scope of the necessary transportation improvements will be evaluated as future development in the area occurs and improvements will be made as traffic needs arise. There is an existing Bald Eagle nest located adjacent to Settlers Ridge Parkway. The tree in which the nest is located is not proposed to be disturbed by development activities but grading of the stormwater ponding facilities will occur in close proximity to the nest. The landowner has received a permit from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to do work in the area and have utilized best practices to ensure the safety of the eagles and the nest. The same permit process was utilized for a nest located adjacent to Bailey Lake in southern Woodbury with no adverse impacts identified to the eagles or the nest. Page 8 of 15  City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 22, 2020 Rezoning, Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit A rezoning application has been submitted for the entire Outlot C of the Sundance plat. The 15.76-acre project area is currently split between multiple zoning districts and the request is to rezone the entire property area to MX, (Mixed- Use). The MX zoning is consistent with the zoning of the Sundance project located to the south. They are proposing to provide one access point off of Karen Drive, with the second access point proposed on the northwest portion of the site. That will connect the proposed 255 units to the future use to the west of the subject parcel. The mixed-use category intends to provide flexibility between commercial and high-density residential uses. The 2040 Comprehensive Plan anticipated that 65 percent of the acreage guided for mixed use would be a high-density residential use and 35 percent would be commercial uses. It is not required that all properties guided as mixed-use provide a commercial end use component, but the intent of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan was to provide commercial and retail services in close proximity to the residents in the northeast area. The proposed site was originally identified as a potential opportunity to provide for retail and commercial uses which would serve those future residents and the business community within the northeast area of the city. However, upon further evaluation of the site constraints of this property, including topography, the location and convenience of the access, and the presence of the Bald Eagle nest, it was identified that the highest and best use for the property is multi-family residential rather than retail or commercial. Dale Properties is the current owner of the Beyond Apartments site and they also own the area directly to the east. Staff began having conversations with the developer to identify the characteristics of the development patterns for the property directly to the east. Because of the site characteristics of that property, which includes a number of wetlands and others that create very small pad sites, it was identified that retail or smaller commercial uses are likely the highest and best use for this area. It is important to note that from a retail standpoint, the market is currently very premature. In order for retail to become a viable use the Settlers Ridge Parkway and Hudson Road area, significant job creating or traffic generating uses would need to occur on the surrounding vacant land. That likely will take years to come to fruition. The Amended PUD application requests to memorialize the permitted uses on the southeast portion of the intersection of Settlers Ridge Parkway and Hudson Road to office, retail, and other permitted uses under the Business Campus District. The analysis shows that the higher level of access and the ability to create a small commercial node with multiple buildings would be a more successful way to deliver potential commercial or retail uses in the northeast area than in the west side of Settlers Ridge Parkway. This use transfer is similar to the approach taken by the city at Tamarack Interchange as part of the Costco application where the retail allowance was transferred from multiple properties on the east side of I-494 to the Costco site where retail was identified as the highest and best use. Formalizing the approved uses in the southeast quadrant through the PUD process ensure the intent of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan is met. As with the last application, a Conditional Use Permit is also required as part of this Amended PUD. Those findings are identified in City Code Section 24-43 and were provided as part of the resolution under consideration. Pedestrian Movement Mr. Searles shared an image of the proposed pedestrian network, not only as part of the Beyond Apartments but also the surrounding areas. There is connectivity to Karen Drive through to the Sundance at Settlers Ridge Project and connecting with Hudson Road. Ultimately there will be a trail on both sides of Settlers Ridge Parkway. Parking The zoning ordinance requires two parking spaces per unit if one indoor space per unit is within a garage. Staff has identified that the existing multi-family facilities within the community have a significant amount of unused outside or outdoor surface parking. As part of the review and approval of the Aspire at City Place and the Grove Affordable Apartment projects the city approved parking ratios based on the number of bedrooms within a multi-family use and a 10 percent allocation for guest parking. This particular application identifies a larger percentage of one-bedroom apartments. This changing unit type distribution is because of modifications and changes to household formation, rental by choice lifestyle, and overall housing costs. Due to this unique unit allocation, staff recommends using a 20 percent guest parking ratio in addition to the one stall per bedroom count to accommodate the needed parking for the larger one- bedroom units that may have two vehicles. Based on the number of and the types of units, plus the 20 percent guest parking requirement, this project would be required to provide 369 parking spaces. The proposed site plan provides 269 parking spaces indoors and 100 surface parking stalls, thereby meeting the requirement. Architecture Page 9 of 15  City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 22, 2020 City Code requires all multi-family projects over 3-stories in height shall be constructed of a minimum 65 percent Class I material. This application exceeds that requirement by the use of brick, glass, and cultured stone product. Consistent with the other projects received and approved from multi-family standpoint, this project proposed to include a number of different site amenities; large clubhouse for resident use and resident events, coffee bistro, full fitness studio, outdoor terrace with grills and fire pit, and an outdoor pool. Public Process A neighborhood meeting was held on November 25, 2019 with two property owners in attendance. Questions were raised regarding timing of the development and overall project details. This item was also reviewed at the January 13, 2020 Planning Commission Meeting. Commissioner Jennifer Nowacki provided their findings by explaining that they had quite a bit of discussion regarding the following:  Improvements to Hudson Road and Settlers Ridge Parkway in 2021  Construction work on Karen Drive being concurrent with this development and to keep construction traffic off of this new road, the temporary site construction access point would a right in/right out at the southeast corner of the property  Work on Outlot A will be done as part of the work on Karen Drive  The Beyond Apartments will do some correcting to the stormwater ponds to bring it to their site level  Bald Eagle nest and the mitigation of disturbances. It was also noted that not just the tree with the eagle nest will be saved, but all of the surrounding trees as well.  Hudson Road will have a trail on both sides connecting all of the way to Woodbury Drive as development builds out on the north side of Hudson Road  Access to Turnberry Park  Best practice of having two access points  Snow storage/removal  Transfer of retail from this site to the southeast property  Height of the building  Price points The Planning Commission recommended approval of the request by a 7-0 vote. Mayor Burt moved, seconded by Councilmember Date, to close the public hearing. Voting in Favor: Date, Scoggins, Morris, Santini, Burt Absent: None Mayor Burt opened opportunity for discussion and questions from the Council. Councilmember Santini asked if Karen Drive was the divider between Mixed Use and High-Density Use on the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Searles replied that at the time the Comprehensive Plan is created staff anticipated that the connector road from Hudson Road to Settlers Ridge Parkway would have the orientation that shown within the Comprehensive Plan. However, that would have been in direct conflict with the eagle’s nest and the wetland. As staff received more information, understood the site topography, understood the restrictions of the eagle’s nest and other things, Karen Drive ultimately was shown to swing further to the south, which created an area a little bit, from an access standpoint, separated from Karen Drive which his not overly conducive to retail development. Councilmember Santini also asked if the access point from Karen Drive to Hudson Road would, at some point, be signalized. Mr. Searles replied that currently the traffic study does not identify the signalization of Karen Drive at Settlers Ridge Parkway or Hudson Road; however, that is something that will be monitored as traffic levels increase. Councilmember Morris asked for a reminder of what the entrances look like from Karen Drive into the Sundance Project. Mr. Searles replied that they are full access points with turn lanes. Councilmember Morris asked why snow removal was not listed as part of the conditions of approval. Mr. Searles replied that it will be identified in the Operations and Maintenance Plan as either needing to be removed or, for smaller snow events, the last row of parking will be used for snow storage. Storage of snow will not be allowed in the Reuse Pond / Stormwater Pond. Mayor Burt asked about trails or sidewalks on Settlers Ridge Parkway. Mr. Searles replied that there would be trails on both sides of Settlers Ridge Parkway. She then asked about Hudson Road. Mr. Searles explained that this application identifies the construction of a trail just outside of the right-of-way on the south side of Hudson Road. The reason for that is that staff has not determined the timing for the upgrade of Hudson Road from two to four lanes. Also, they wanted to have, as development continues to occur within this northeast area, the ability for that to be constructed in advance of waiting for the transition from a two-lane to a four-lane road. There Page 10 of 15  City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, January 22, 2020 will be a trail on the south side of Hudson Road. When the road is upgraded from a two-lane to a four-lane there will also be a trail on the north side of Hudson Road. Mayor Burt asked the following questions, to which Mr. Searles replied:  Connectivity to Turnberry Parkland o Will be through the Sundance Project  The distance from these apartments to the Turnberry Parkland o Approximately one-quarter of a mile  The height of the two apartment buildings o The smaller is four stories and the larger is five stories  What has been identified as possible future uses for properties on the north side of Hudson Road o Could include offices or some level of light industrial  Could residential uses be constructed there o Comprehensive Plan does not identify residential uses on the properties on the north side of Hudson Road. Also, there is a performance standard that is identified within the Comprehensive Plan for separation from the freeway to housing Councilmember Date, in relation to the zoning, noted that the proposed ordinance is to rezone certain property from Business Campus District to MX, Mixed Use District and asked if the property on the left was the one he was referring to. Mr. Searles replied in the negative. Councilmember Date then expressed her appreciation for the explanation provided of what was being done on the east side because many of the Councilmembers were part of the Comprehensive Planning Task Force and true Mixed-Use Development is really important to the City of Woodbury. Even though it is being rezoned as mixed-use, she did not feel that different types of housing really met the intent of that. She understood the presentation and the reason that they are going in that direction; however, she wanted to emphasize how important then it is that, to the extent possible, the east side does fulfill that mixed-use philosophy. She then asked what the zoning current is for that space. Mr. Searles replied that it is currently zoned Business Campus District. Councilmember Date asked who determined the placement of the crosswalk. Mr. Searles clarified that the question raised at the Planning Commission meeting was where was the most likely location that the city would want to see a crossing occur. The evaluation was that best practice would have the crosswalk as close to a full intersection as possible. As part of the development of Karen Drive, the engineering division will determine whether a crosswalk is the appropriate pedestrian safety infrastructure within that location. Councilmember Scoggins asked for clarification on what the ponding area is where the eagle nest is located. Mr. Searles replied that it was a wetland, not a pond. She then asked where the stormwater pond would be flowing to. Mr. Searles replied that generally stormwater travels to the north through the site to the east and then further east along Hudson Road and there are two break points. Generally, all of the water flows to the east. The amount of ponding shown on the image of the site is to meet not only the quantity ponding requirements, but they are also re-use systems. Mr. Dwight Picha, Community Development Director also noted that this area is in the Valley Branch Watershed District, which is different than the South Washington County. This water eventually gets to the St. Croix River so there are higher standards. Councilmember Date stated that she really likes how this area is coming together and she loves the walkability that is being put in place. The idea of this apartment that has everything sounds really great. However, she wondered about any concerns about long-term viability. Is the area adaptable so that if, say the coffee shop goes out of business, the building would not be left standing empty or become obsolete? Mr. Searles replied that a good example is City Walk. City Walk was the one of the city’s first highly amenitized residential project that began in 2004 for the first phase and the second phase was in 2010. What has been seen over the last few years is they reinvested in their amenities space and refreshed their amenities space and provided differing levels of amenities. On these projects, City Staff ensures that there is a sizeable amount of amenity space to allow for reinvestment to occur. What has been seen is the addition of amenities to support the rental rates.
