V. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. EP HIGH SCHOOL SIGN PUD AMENDMENT (2020-05) Request for:
• Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 66.6 acres
• Planned Unit Development Amendment with waivers on 66.6 acres
The applicant is proposing to install an approximately 103 square foot sign on the south elevation of
the building. The location of the sign is intended to serve as an identification sign for the Eden Prairie High School performing arts center from the intersection at Valley View Road. The 103 square foot wall sign is intended to replace an existing temporary banner sign in the proposed location, and banner signs are not compliant with City Code. There are no proposed changes to other existing signs on the site.
As part of the PUD amendment, the applicant is seeking waivers for additional wall signage. The existing PUD allows 268 square feet of wall signage. This amendment would approve 371 square
feet of wall signage.
MOTION 1: Move to close the public hearing. MOTION 2: Move to recommend approval for a Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 66.6 acres; Planned Unit Development Amendment with waivers on 66.6 acres based on Plans

FLYING CLOUD COMMONS (CASTLE RIDGE RETAIL) (2019-21)
Request for:
• Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 7.27 acres
• Planned Unit Development District Review with waivers on 7.27 acres
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES May 26, 2020
Page 2
• Site Plan Review on 5.479 acres
• Preliminary Plat of 1 outlot into 3 lots and 2 outlots on 7.27 acres Ian Halker presented a PowerPoint and explained the application and how the
master plan fit in with this development. Halker gave an overview of the history of the Castle Ridge Redevelopment project. Presbyterian Homes owned the land for the master project of the Castle Ridge redevelopment. Ground was broken on the senior living facility in November, 2019.
The proposed commercial development would integrate safe pedestrian walkways throughout and incorporate landscaping and sidewalk lighting, and utilize Class I materials in a cohesive design. Halker displayed an overview of the trade area and explained the context for this development. He displayed major arterials, the Purgatory Creek Trail connection and the planned pathways for cars and people.
The pedestrian traffic flow showed the heaviest traffic into the site (from the west), as well as the medium and lightest traffic flow. Halker displayed the site plan which included looping paths, plaza spaces, and retail edges along with the connections between these sites. He explained the features of the central plaza, which would serve as a social hub and a focal point supporting the surrounding
commercial retail areas, the senior housing, and pedestrian spaces. He explained the dimensions of the retail areas compared to the housing and pedestrian areas and emphasized Oppidan’s balanced approach instead of a “sea of parking.” He added he looked forward to working with Lakewinds on this development which would be an amenity for the immediate area and have a greater impact on Eden
Prairie. Mette asked if all parcels were all being constructed at the same time in a coordinated effort. Halker replied all current residents of Presbyterian Homes at the Castle Ridge facility on this parcel would be relocated, and once their building
was finished, would move in in 2021. Oppidan was handling the site work for each client, but tenants were on their own schedule with different contractors. It was likely retail will build around the same time. The Lakewinds project would probably go first. Kirk asked if Halker anticipated Outlot B being built at the same time and if contractors would be lined up and ready. Halker replied that was
the hope; with current events the timing had become complicated. In theory all would break ground and build simultaneously. DeSanctis asked if the street west of the Lakewinds development was public or private, and if private whose responsibility it was to maintain it. Halker replied it
would be a private road maintained by Presbyterian Homes. Farr asked for an update or review of the traffic report from a year ago. Halker replied an update was done and there were some items followed up on. A shared accessway between Chick-Fil-A and Fountain Place was removed as recommended. Jeff Westendorf replied all comments regarding truck movements and turning were
addressed. Farr asked for comments on the density created by the drive-through
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES May 26, 2020
Page 3
lanes. Halker replied the traffic plan remained constant and there was no change
in traffic volume, to his surprise. Some retail along Outlot B was reduced, which could be an explanation, as well as more travel through the site. Also, Chick-Fil-A closed on Sundays, whereas other retail remained open.
Farr noted there was one active lane on the Bank of America side and then a
bypass lane, creating another aisle before the parking stalls. He asked for the reason for so much asphalt between this bypass lane and the parking aisle. David Bay with Westwood PS replied this extra area was created for safety.
DeSanctis asked if a market analysis had been done for another grocery store, as
Aldi’s and Target were within a quarter mile. He asked if there were different demographics attracted to these sites and was concerned about grocery density. Dale Woodbeck for Lakewinds Grocery replied a study had been conducted via a
third party who did not reveal its method. This was indeed demographic- and
Census-driven. Woodbeck stated he had high confidence in this company. His company had a three years’ sale projection starting from opening day and this was likely to be a very successful site.
Klima presented the staff report. This was the third phase of the Castle Ridge
project, done in two phases: two outlots, and three commercial lots. Chick Fil A and Bank of America would have drive-through facilities. The first two phases included the Castle Ridge Senior Housing project and the Paravel multi-family housing development. The master developer, Presbyterian Homes, was
coordinating with Timberland for the Paravel project and with Oppidan for the
commercial component. This commercial development was submitted and being reviewed through a separate process since the three phases of the master plan were not on the same timeline. Although the project included three developers and three different product types, the developers were partnering to design
individual project areas containing cohesive development components.
The property was subject to a concept review as part of the overall Castle Ridge Redevelopment project. The plans submitted were revised to address comments provided through that process which included reviews by City staff, the Planning
Commission and the City Council. The existing use of the property was the Castle
Ridge Care Center and vacant property.
Oppidan proposed approximately 33,500 square feet of commercial development with this first phase. Specifically, the proposal includes a 25,000 square foot grocery store, 5,000 square foot fast food restaurant with drive through, and a
3,500 square foot bank with drive through. The proposed plans also included a 1.8
acre outlot to be developed at a future date and illustrates a potential development of approximately 7,400 square feet of additional retail/restaurant space. Any building plans shown on Outlot B were illustrative only with no formal approval.
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES May 26, 2020

As a part of the PUD process, the applicant was seeking waivers to City Code
requirements for the proposed project: Public Street Frontage for Lot One, minimum lot size, minimum lot depth and lot width, front yard setback along Flying Cloud Drive from 35 feet to 20 feet, landscaping and tree replacement requirements, parking setback on Lot Two, and parking lot island width and size.
This development was part of a Master Plan, so there would be coordination
between the commercial sites and Presbyterian Homes for a cohesive look. There would be pedestrian connections connecting all three phases of the master project area. —
Staff recommended the Chick-Fil-A canopy be removed and that the setback
waiver for the canopy be denied. The Chick-Fil-A building materials proposed exceeded requirements. The site also exceeded parking requirements. The Lakewinds architecture exceeded the requirements from the City Code and the building material requirements would be confirmed prior to review by the City
Council. The Bank of America site exceeded all City Code requirements.
Construction would begin in early 2022. Staff recommended approval with the waivers except for the two changes previously stated above.
Farr asked if on the original master plan Commonwealth Drive had angled parking on both sides, and if so had that was removed. Klima replied that part of Commonwealth Drive did not have angled parking to her recollection. Kirk stated in his experience Chick-Fil-A had a canopy for ordering in other Midwestern
states. The canopy was more applicable to more moderate weather than in
Minnesota. Jennifer Santelli of Chick-fil-a replied she was originally from Duluth, Minnesota and this company had a lot of experience with using the canopy in northern
climes, such as Illinois, Wisconsin, and upper state New York. It was meant as a
refuge for outdoor employees and worked well. It would be utilized mostly on Saturday afternoons, not all the time, and allowed hospitality in terms of real people instead of an intercom.
DeSanctis stated he did not see bicycle racks under the list of sustainable features
and asked if this was due to a concern with mixing cyclists with traffic. Klima replied there were bike lots proposed on the Lakewinds property and at Flying Cloud Drive and Prairie Center Drive. DeSanctis asked if there was a provision for solar lighting, either ground-based or supplemental for the LED system.
Halker replied different components were looked at. Jeff Westendorf of
Westwood replied he did not believe any solar lighting was included. Halker offered to look into this.

MOTION: Kirk moved, seconded by Farr to close the public hearing. MOTION CARRIED 9-0. Mette stated she was glad to see a grocery store on this site. She also supported denial of the canopy and its setback waiver. She wanted to see a more cohesive
architectural element throughout, for she anticipated it resembling three separate
developments. For example, a certain brick could set the tone. She also urged for some uniqueness in the buildings to break up the monotone look for the Bank of America site. She commended the design of the two park spaces and the connections. She agreed with the staff report of the Chick-Fil-A parking but
wanted to see it set back from the property line and ideally, angled parking.
Halker replied there would be cohesiveness among the developments, as required by the City Code and the high finish standard. He offered to look again at the angled parking concept, but this was an “odd-shaped” site. Westendorf also offered to look at angled parking, though he had concerns about that with this site.
Mette thanked them.
Kirk noted the ongoing issue of a business’s branding versus the Eden Prairie style and ordinances, and how to balance that. He understood both outlooks. He agreed to a point with Mette, but also agreed the canopy was not appropriate for
Eden Prairie as stated by staff.
Farr commended the Lakewinds design, but the continuity of the design fell apart and did not extend to all four sides. He found it an unfriendly design for pedestrians along the streetscape. The style of the pylon sign seemed inconsistent
with the design. He hoped to see a commonality of bases for the signs throughout
the three developments. He used a Cub Foods in St. Louis Park as an example of good design for a grocery store with adjacency to a residential area. Regarding the Chick-Fil-A site, he commended the architecture and the contemporary design, and how the trash area was integrated. He disagreed with the variance for extra
parking along Fountain Place. He agreed with Mette and Kirk, as well as with
staff, on the canopy, and suggested using a digital screen intercom instead of having employees standing outside. He was disappointed the landscape plan did not screen from drive-through headlights, especially in winter when it was dark earlier. He suggested having bike parking closer to the door of Chick-Fil-A. He
also did not like the discontinuation of the sidewalk there. Farr noted that a
looping sidewalk was especially important for senior citizens. Farr added he had hoped to square off the Bank of America site instead of having it rectangular. There were no pedestrian elements on this façade and squeezing a
pedestrian sidewalk there did not work for him. He also noted the lack of green screening on this site, too. In general, he found the site plan monotonous as Mette had expressed, and urged more uniqueness and common themes throughout. For him the pedestrian circulation design failed: the discontinuous sidewalk at Chick-Fil-A mentioned earlier, and the location of the loop sidewalk system, up against
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES May 26, 2020
Page 6
the curb with 14 curb cuts. He suggested this looping sidewalk be separated with
a safety boulevard. He agreed with previous commissioners and with staff on the Chick-Fil-A variances. Halker replied the fronts of the buildings were thought to be the focus of
pedestrians, and so the loop system followed this. The focus was on getting the
pedestrian to the front of the store. Jeff Westendorf of Westwood offered to look at the landscaping and screening of the drive-through, relocating the bike racks and backing up the Bank building to create a less rectangular area. Farr added there was one particular curb cut between Bank of America and Chick-Fil-A that
was shared, and there was no stacking distance for vehicles to stack or queue
correctly, and this would cause congestion on that loop road. He urged a further study of this. Rue replied his office had similar concerns, and the solution found was just adding a stop sign. While it was a concern, this was a concern between those two property owners.
Mette agreed with Farr’s comments, and added the loop road was an interior drive within the site. She agreed this was a concern between the property owners. It was not really a road, but a route around the parking lot. The main streets and sidewalks were accessible as alternates. She did not envision many residents
walking to the Chick-Fil-A or Bank of America, so she saw both sides. Since the
staff report recommended denial of the canopy waiver, she did not see any impediment to a “yes” vote. Farr agreed this waiver would not prevent his “yes” vote, but the pedestrian safety issues he raised could prevent him voting for this development. Seniors wished to walk in a circle, and that was not provided in this
mixed-use PUD application. Halker displayed the site plan again and explained
the balancing act done by the applicant. He thought the looping system was fairly strong and pedestrian connections were consistent with the one at the Byerly’s and Culver’s.
Gooding stated he saw while traveling across country most Chick-Fil-As had
canopies which helped in inclement weather, and perhaps Eden Prairie should consider the canopy. The design could be altered. He also noted that he was in the process of learning the City’s Design Guidelines. While he shared Farr’s concerns about the interior pedestrian looping, he also noted there was a lot of
walking on the trail and a lot of biking in the area. He agreed a private road was a
private concern, and agreed with staff’s recommendations. Markos asked if Chick-Fil-A had done or would consider other canopy orientations in order to work with this site. She agreed with commissioners’ concerns about pedestrian routes through the sites and added even nonresidents would wish a more coherent
loop. Jennifer Santelli of Chick-fil-a replied the company did consider a number of designs, but were limited as to building orientation and drive-through location. However, the company did have different canopy designs, but this could lead to design creep. The wish was to keep the canopy small-scale. However, the company could look at an enhanced design. She added the site only had 52
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES May 26, 2020
Page 7
parking spaces onsite, not 70. She did not wish to take away 11 spaces as Farr had
suggested. Klima clarified that the Chick-Fil-A site had 52 parking spaces, and City Code required 38. Gooding stated there were a number a parking places in other sites that would be blocked by drive-throughs, so this was not unusual. Mette suggested the tenants
designate those stalls closest to the drive-throughs as employee parking.
Pieper noted the similarities to the Byerly’s and the Culver’s. He added the majority of the walking traffic would go onto the other sidewalks and trails, and agreed with the denial of the canopy and front yard setback waiver. Discussion
followed on possibly adding an amendment to address the interior pedestrian
loop. MOTION: Kirk moved, seconded by Mette to recommend approval for a Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 7.27 acres, Planned Unit
Development District Review with waivers on 7.27 acres, a Site Plan Review on
5.479 acres, and a Preliminary Plat of 1 outlot into 3 lots and 2 outlots on 7.27 acres, based on plans stamp dated May 14, 2020 and the staff report dated May 22, 2020 with the statement that the recommendation does not include a waiver for the Chick-Fil-A canopy. MOTION CARRIED 8-1 with Farr voting nay.

STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission FROM: Sarah Strain, Planner I
DATE: June 22, 2020
SUBJECT: Eden Prairie High School Sign Plan Amendment
APPLICANT: Spectrum Sign Systems, Inc.
OWNER: Eden Prairie Schools, ISD 272
LOCATION: 17185 Valley View Road
REQUEST: • Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 66.6 acres
• Planned Unit Development District Amendment with waivers on 66.6 acres
120 Day Review
Period:
September 2, 2020
BACKGROUND The applicant is requesting a PUD concept review and PUD District Amendment with waivers to
install additional signage at 17185 Valley View Road. The site is approximately 66.6 acres. The site is
located adjacent to the Eden Prairie Community Center, west of Eden Prairie Road and is bordered by
public uses to the west and south and residential uses to the north and east. The property is currently
zoned and guided Public. There are no proposed land use, zoning, or comprehensive plan changes as part of this application.
The applicant is proposing to install an approximately 103 square foot sign on the south elevation of
the building. The location and size of the sign is intended to provide way-finding and serve as a
location marker from the intersection at Valley View Road. A rendering from Valley View Road is
provided in the
image shown right. There is currently a banner sign in this
location. Banner
signs are not
permitted by City
Code.
Staff Report – Eden Prairie High School Sign Plan Amendment
June 22, 2020 Page 2

There is a PUD for a sign plan approved in 2001. The PUD waivers granted were specific to the signs proposed at the time, meaning any additional signage is required to be reviewed through a PUD
amendment process. All of the signs approved through the original sign plan are proposed to remain
unchanged. The locations of these signs are included in the sign plan provided by the applicant. Most
of the existing signs on the site are located above building entrances or at parking lot entrances.
SIGNS The Public zoning district allows for one wall sign per street frontage not exceeding 50 square feet.
The proposed sign is approximately 103 square feet. The site currently has a waiver for the total
allowable sign area, allowing up to 268 square feet of signage on the exterior walls of the building. As
proposed, the building would have approximately 371 square feet of exterior wall signage. There are
no proposed amendments to the freestanding sign waivers.
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT WAIVERS The purpose of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) as stated in City Code is to provide for a
more creative and efficient approach to the use of land within the City; to allow variety in the
types of environment available to people and distribution of overall density of population and
intensity of land use where desirable and feasible; and provide for greater creativity and flexibility
in environmental design. As part of the PUD process, the applicant is seeking waivers to City Code requirements as outlined below.
1. Signage
The site currently has a waiver for sign dimensions, allowing up to 268 square feet of signage
on the exterior walls of the building. City Code allows up to 50 square feet of wall signage
per street frontage. The site has two street frontages, which would allow a total of 100 square feet. There are no proposed amendments to freestanding signage on the site.
As proposed, the building would have approximately 371 square feet of exterior wall signage.
The proposed sign is approximately 103 square feet. The proposed sign will replace an
existing banner sign that not compliant with City Code. The size of the sign is appropriate
given the size of the building and overall campus. Other large campus sites throughout Eden
Prairie have received waivers for the number of signs and overall sign area allowed.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the following request:
• PUD Concept Review on 66.6 acres
• PUD District Amendment with waivers for 66.6 acres
The following waivers have been granted through the PUD District Review for the project as
