Assistant Community Development Director/City Planner Eric Searles reviewed an application for a warehouse and distribution use for 1-3 tenants with a future tenant mix of 95% warehouse and 5% office. The distribution center would be located on over 400 acres of Places To Work land, south of the I-94 corridor. A preliminary plat creates a lot over 33 acres and a future outlot site A to the west at 29.3 acres. The City acquired two areas for parkland dedication through the 2010 pre-development agreement with Dale Properties. Mr. Searles stated a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) required for distribution centers greater than 100,000 square feet. Mr. Searles stated a pedestrian network is proposed to provide access to public spaces to the south as well as trail network along Hudson Road and Settlers Ridge Parkway. Main access to the property would be a signalized intersection on Hudson Road, with an additional access on Hudson Road, as well as private drive employee and truck access. Mr. Searles stated the application proposes building with different colors and textures to break up scale and create visual interest. Corner entries will have storefront glass as visual focal point of the building. A screening plan utilizes precast walls to soften the impact of onsite truck traffic and storage. There is a parking requirement of 346 spaces and the applicant proposes 400 spaces. City Staff recommends that parking be reviewed regularly and proof of parking be utilized as tenant become known. Planning Commissioner Sathyamohan Gavvagi stated the Planning Commission discussed the fact that there is not much residential use in this area, and the other projects in this area complement each other. The Planning Commission discussed energy efficiency and sustainability measures that could be incorporated. Page 5 of 16  City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday May 25, 2022 Mr. Searles stated the Planning Commission approved the application by a 7-0 vote, and City Staff recommends City Council approval of the application. Mayor Burt moved, seconded by Councilmember Morris, to close the public hearing. Voting via voice: Kim Wilson – aye Andrea Date – aye Steve Morris – aye Jennifer Santini – aye Anne Burt – aye Mayor Burt stated she appreciates the proof of parking information. Councilmember Wilson asked whether the access point will be a right in/right out only if Hudson Road is converted to 4 lanes. She asked whether sidewalks will be privately maintained but available for public access. Mr. Searles confirmed these points. Councilmember Wilson stated she feels that the northeast quadrant is turning into an industrial park. She added she spoke with a concerned resident. She asked how much warehouse use the City will be putting there. Mr. Searles stated the 2040 Comprehensive Plan provided recommendations for moving forward with industrial and warehouse uses. He added it is difficult to predict future use and tenant mixes, but it is anticipated that there will be a mixture of warehouse and light industrial. Councilmember Wilson asked whether there will be overnight parking at this facility. Mr. Searles stated the Ordinance permits overnight truck parking as long as it is screened. He added layovers for drivers or employees is not allowed in the Ordinance. Councilmember Morris asked whether there are idling restrictions in the Ordinance. Mr. Searles stated there is not an Ordinance but this issue would be addressed if a nuisance is triggered, which he does not anticipate in this case. Councilmember Morris stated the future connection to Karen Drive will be adjacent to a storm water management area. He added, from an elevation standpoint, truck traffic using that access point should not be permitted. Mr. Searles agreed, adding it is not anticipated that this will be a truck route. He added the cul-de-sac in Karen Drive can be utilized for additional employee parking if necessary. Councilmember Morris asked when the roadway will be expanded. Mr. Searles stated the final intensity of the developments is not known, although there is a scenario that could require improvements in 2030. He added, based on traffic studies, City Staff anticipates improvements will not need improvements until after 2040. He added construction of future Eastview Road which will drastically change some of the existing traffic patterns. Councilmember Morris requested clarification regarding a potential intersection on I-94 at this area. Mr. Searles stated the City reviewed a possible intersection 10 years ago, and there was insufficient support for those improvements. Councilmember Morris expressed concern regarding unintended consequence for residents trying to access I-94 via Hudson Road and Manning Road intersections. Mr. Searles stated City Staff have studied this area and continue to update traffic studies to determine roadway needs, and peak drive times for these development uses are off peak for residential trips. Councilmember Date requested clarification regarding percentages of building materials. Mr. Searles stated the development is proposed to be 100% Class 1 and Class 2 materials. Councilmember Date asked whether consideration has been given to sustainability measures. She added there is a huge roof and a lot of impervious surface. Mr. Searles stated City Staff have discussed the use of the roof space with the applicant, and rooftop solar is a potential future opportunity. Councilmember Date stated it is exciting to see the plan for the northeast area come together, bringing businesses and jobs to Woodbury. She stressed the importance of limiting parking to only what is needed to reduce impervious surface. Councilmember Morris asked whether the plans have been shared with the Met Council for potential public transit considerations. Mr. Searles stated that has not yet been identified but will be under consideration as types of work and tenants are identified. Page 6 of 16  City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday May 25, 2022 Councilmember Santini asked how often the City intends to pursue speculative developments, in which the tenant and types of work are not known. Mr. Searles stated the northeast area is new as it relates to these light industrial warehouse spaces. He added it is necessary for builders to provide the space so users can occupy it. Councilmember Wilson requested clarification regarding a potential stop light at the Eastview connection to Manning as traffic increases. Mr. Searles stated it is anticipated that Eastview Road and Settlers Ridge Parkway will be a signalized intersection in the future, as well as Eastview Road and Manning Avenue. Councilmember Wilson asked when this will happen and what residents will do in the meantime. Mr. Searles stated the connection is anticipated to be constructed as part of Phase 3, to begin around 2027, although that can certainly change. In the interim, Settlers Ridge will continue to serve residential needs, and with construction times, it will be potentially 18 months before any new traffic is seen in this area. Hudson Road on the the north side of I-94 also provides significant opportunity for access to Manning and Woodbury Drive during peak time. Councilmember Wilson asked whether the expansion of Hudson Road is being considered now while the businesses have an opportunity to contribute to the expansion. She stressed the importance of being proactive on these developments. Mr. Searles stated initial studies assumptions regarding number of trips are conservative, and a 2-lane roadway can handle between 12,000-15,000 trips per day, providing significant capacity for traffic increase from current counts. He added there would be a cost for improvements for roadway expansions and replacement over time. He noted City Staff’s goal is to mitigate impact to taxpayers by not pre-building unnecessary intersections that will need to be maintained and rebuilt. Councilmember Wilson asked whether these developers are contributing to the rebuilding of the roadway. Mr. Searles stated the overall capacity has been afforded by activity at the Project Belle site. He added City Staff will monitor traffic as future developments come in to determine thresholds, and an expansion may be necessary, or a collection of financial securities from tenants. Councilmember Wilson asked whether the developers are contributing to the roadway project. Mr. Searles stated they are not, as the overall landowner worked with Project Belle and has not directly participated in costs. He added improvements will serve the entire northeast area and financed by Project Belle. Mayor Burt asked whether there are plans for a signalized intersection at Hudson Road and Manning Avenue. Mr. Searles confirmed this, stating improvements are planned to add capacity to the intersection as part of the Project Belle development, and will take place this summer 2022.

Royal Gateway; Planned Unit Development; Conditional Use Permit; Preliminary Plat and Site and Building Plan; Project No. 01-2022-00491 Mayor Burt declared the public hearing open. 7-d Royal gateway Mr. Searles reviewed an application for a 435,000 square foot business campus district west of Manning Avenue and north of Hudson Road, that will have 4-8 tenants in an 85% warehouse, 10% light industrial and 5% office use building. Park dedication has been satisfied for this use. The application includes a Planned Unit Development for the light industrial parking code and 65% Class I material for non-residential facing structures.

He added this will be a visible transition area as a gateway along the freeway and the appearance of the structure has to be much better. Mayor Burt moved, seconded by Councilmember Morris, to close the public hearing. Voting via voice: Kim Wilson – aye Andrea Date – aye Steve Morris – aye Jennifer Santini – aye Anne Burt – aye Mr. Searles stated this project will be developed without the use of tax incentives. He added there could be a future request, but City Staff is confident that “places to work” uses will be developed without taxpayer subsidy. He noted, as an example, there were significant contributions related to Project Belle of $12 million in infrastructure improvements to support their facility and utilities needs. Councilmember Morris requested clarification regarding a mixed-use parcel northeast of Eastview Road and Manning Avenue. Mr. Searles stated it is anticipated that parcel will be developed for multi-family use. Councilmember Morris asked whether there are any parcels in this area that are zoned “light commercial. Mr. Searles stated it is not anticipated that significant commercial development will occur at that location due to the distance from Manning Avenue. Councilmember Morris requested clarification regarding snow removal and trash enclosures. Mr. Searles stated details regarding location and type of trash enclosures has not been determined as the location of tenant spaces has not been established. He added those details will be identified in conditions once space needs are clarified. Councilmember Morris asked whether trash enclosures will need to match building materials. Mr. Searles stated the materials can be complimentary rather than the actual precast materials. Councilmember Date stated other developers, including the Kindeva development, requested flexibility in building materials in exchange for trade-offs. Mr. Searles stated 100% Class 1 and Class 2 materials are still used. He added the trade-off for Kindeva was removal of a billboard on the site. Councilmember Date asked for clarification regarding the service road would that continue through to the development to the west. Mr. Searles stated it is not anticipated that the service road will connect on the north due to development patterns to the west. Councilmember Wilson asked who owns the billboards. Mr. Searles stated the billboards are owned by the landowner under contract, Dale Properties.

Councilmember Wilson asked whether there be stormwater management on that side of the road. Mr. Searles confirmed there will be 2 stormwater basins on the east side. Councilmember Wilson infrastructure improvements for other projects were done because the facilities were going in and would not have been otherwise needed. Mr. Searles confirmed this. Councilmember Wilson requested clarification regarding the mixed use on the south lot. Mr. Searles stated the mixed-use designation allows for development up to 15 units per acre, but also either vertical integration of commercial use or horizontal. He added it could be a mix of residential and commercial, but that is not required. Councilmember Wilson asked whether development on the south lot is anticipated any time soon. Mr. Searles stated there could be development activity on that property in the near term. Councilmember Wilson asked how traffic would access Manning Avenue. Mr. Searles stated a right of way was preserved for a future access point at this location as part of Project Belle. He added it could be a traffic signal depending upon warrants and would be wholly served by Manning Avenue. Councilmember Wilson asked whether the frontage road be privately maintained. Mr. Searles confirmed this. Councilmember Wilson requested clarification regarding percentages of Class 1 and Class 2 building materials. Mr. Searles stated Class 1 materials are brick, glass and stone, and copper. He added buildings of this scale tend to appear institutional or correctional when only Class 1 materials are used. He noted pre-cast materials are more flexible for these types of projects. Councilmember Wilson reiterated concern about traffic patterns for drivers on Hudson Road.

Parks and Natural Resources Commission Recommendation to Elevate Environmental Stewardship as a Strategic Initiative 22-172 Greta Bjerkness, Chair of the Parks and Natural Resources Commission, read a statement requesting that the City Council elevate environmental stewardship for the City of Woodbury. The mission and role of the Commission is to advise the City Council on issues related to natural resources that affect Woodbury’s citizens. Environmental stewardship and climate action have been discussed by the Commission and with residents. Chair Bjerkness presented a formal letter from the Commission outlining events that create the necessity for a strategic initiative. Residents are ready for the City to take meaningful, urgent action on environmental stewardship. The Commission’s request is twofold: allocate resources to develop action plan; and allocate resources and provide guidance on how residents can take meaningful action at individual and household levels. These actions will provide the City and City Staff with resources to ensure the City continues to protect the environment and maintain the very things that make Woodbury a superb community in which to live. Chair Bjerkness requested, on behalf of the Parks and Natural Resources Commission, that the City Council elevate environmental stewardship as a strategic initiative for the City of Woodbury. Joe Ward, 7817 Somerset Circle, presented a letter signed by over 50 supporters of this initiative to provide action plans to care for the environment. He added clean, sustainable drinking water is only part of the pressing environmental issues. He noted the initiative would fund a necessary community-wide prioritization and planning process. Page 13 of 16  City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday May 25, 2022 Dana Boyle, 1565 Tamberwood Trail, stated she is a volunteer steward at the Tamarack Nature Preserve, a public facing naturalist project staffed by volunteers conducting tours and working closely with Woodbury City Staff to enhance the trails system. The Nature Preserve was featured in 2021 in Natural History Magazine, as it is one of only 3 naturally occurring bog fens in the United States, which makes it extremely important to protect and preserve. Ms. Boyle stated a designated climate action plan would look at ways to protect such sites and provide long term solutions, while serving as a directive for many City initiatives and set the tone for all Woodbury residents and decision makers. Wallace Wadd, 2530 Queensport Road, stated he is a member the Parks and Natural Resources Commission. He urged the City to build on efforts to create an integrated wholistic Environmental Stewardship Strategic Initiative as promised in the 2030 and 2040 Comprehensive Plans, and provide environmental initiative recommendations to the City Council. He urged the City Council to budget for and develop a strategic initiative to include adaptations to the changes in climate with a focus on our most vulnerable citizens. Molly McCoole, 8511 Timberwood Road, stated she is a senior at Woodbury High School and President of Environmental Club, representing Woodbury youth. She added she has noticed changes in the ponds and creeks in the City’s neighborhoods. Algae has been linked to poisonings in pets and children, and puts a green smear on our City. She strongly advised that the City Council adopt the Environmental Stewardship Strategic Initiative so residents and future generations can enjoy our City. Della Shardt, 3191 Canterbury Circle, stated she is a senior at Woodbury High School and a member of Environmental Club. She added one of the largest problems facing pollinators is a lack of plants that are beneficial or necessary for them to thrive. This is exacerbated by lawns, which are ecological dead zones and have many negative impacts. She noted Environmental Stewardship Strategic Initiative could counteract these effects and keep Woodbury a healthy and safe place to live. Roger Green, 1254 Donegal Drive, complimented Chair Bjerkness Greta for articulating the call to action that the Commission has put forward to the City Council. He added he has served on many City Commissions over the years. He noted this is the time to advance the goals articulated in the city’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan. The Commission has recommended that you elevate this work to a strategic initiative, and he recommend that the City Council give it serious consideration. Environmental sustainability is an area that warrants dedication of more resources. Reverend Anna Doherty, 3308 Northview Lane, stated she is Rector at Christ Episcopal Church. She urged the City Council to act on this matter as people of faith, on behalf of God’s good creation. She added Woodbury is a wonderful city to live in, and she urged the City Council to consider this environmental initiative as part of what we can do as people of faith. Mayor Burt thanked the residents for their comments and efforts. She added the City Council is preparing to meet in Council Retreat, at which time the City Council reviews input from the community survey and considers these types of initiatives.
