We do not anticipate that the HUD and MPCA Noise Standards will be exceeded in this area, however, we do have some concern about its relative close location to Flying Cloud Airport. Therefore, we could expect that on occasions the residents in this area would hear some noise from the ground operations at Flying Cloud Airport. In view of this we would urge that the potential residents of the proposed Fr development be advised that they may at times hear airport activity in order to alleviate any potential concern even though it is not expected noise standards will be exceeded.

Development - Since the property has 7 owners each having different development schedules, improvements would most likely be petitioned to the city and assessed by normal city policies. It is anticipated that many of the properties might be acquired and combined for development or may be developed individually. 3. Development Method/Timing Since —seven owners are involved , petitions for public improvements and rezoning would be the method for development on the remaining parcels. Immediate development of one use, Miley Sprinkler Systems, is proposed to begin early 1977. Timing would be. dependent upon the marketing of the property and the extension of utilities and road improvements to the site. Improvements to the intersection of Co. Rd. 1 and US 169 may be anticipated in 1978 as^proposed by the Highway Department Safety Improvement Program. • • 4. Critical Public Decisions a.

Staff Report-Co. Rd. 1/US 169 PUP -4- Jan. 19, 1977 9,: 2. Regional Relationships The site is located at a key intersection,along US 169 and Co. Rd. 1. U. S. 169 functions as a major state arterial roadway and will for the next 8-10 years until such time as US 169/212 is constructed on another alignment. The site is located south of Purgatory Creek- a major city open space corridor The site's location adjacent to Flying Cloud Airport within its zoning influence area effects the site's potential use. 3. Existing Land Use Currently the site is utilized for residential purposes or vacant. 4. Existing Transportation Currently the site has four access driveways to Co. Rd. 1 and no access to US 169. i:i 5. Existing Zoning H`, The entire area is currently zoned Rural bordered on the north and west by Public ( Staring Lake Park ). 6. Comprehensive Plan The 1968 Guide Plan envisioned i)i -----1--_.—_L multiple family and industrial uses for the property adjacent to Purgatory Creek . As illustrated on the Guide • Plan Map the realignment of Co. Rd. 1 q and US 169 will not occur , thereby changing the configuration of land 71/1 uses on the site. en _� a ' I - W . 0 0Y/' 17 : 1 . .

The industrial sites are outside of the transition zone. The 10.13 acre future multiple and the parkland falls into the ♦ Transition Zone. Development was not prohibited in the Transition Zone, but rather should be designed with maximum respect for the creek corridor. Conclusion: • Currently the t 27 acres is used for residential purnoses. • The Intersection of Co. Rd. 1 and US 169 is currently one of the most dangerous • intersections within the City of Eden Prairie and is scheduled for improvements by the Highway Department in 1978. Thq site located directly across from Flying Cloud Airport. within the noise influence zones of the northern runway, places severe limitations on residen- • tial land uses for the property. The City has acquired parkland on theaorth and west sides of the site completing the Staring Lake Community Park Area. . . C. PLAN PROJECT AREA I- ' 1. Natural Features • Figure 4 illustrates the terrain characteristics, significant slope( varying from 20-SO feet in height) runs east-west through the center of • the site creating two tiers . A swale running north - south provides a logical landform to gain access to the lower terrain. The upland area, along Co. Rd. 1, is approximately 80' above Purgatooryy Creek. ._-v .\ : • N.• �, i .�`• + .. 1-�' %' t6 to...... ,".. —._ ` ‘ -. • .t •./•• ,lC ` \�rl �.1 Staff Report-Co.Rd.1/US 169 PUD -6- , Jan. 17, 1977 2. Soils (figure 4) • Soils on the site are of three types which reflect the slopes ranging from 0 to 18 % . All of the soils have good building potential and are not subject to frost or shrink and swell changes. The soils present two restrictions for development : severe erosion problems and rapid percolation for drainage fields could pollute ground water. Soils are favorable for development with public sewer if the_slopesand existing vegetation are avoided to reduce erosion. 3. Vegetation Vegetation on the site is illustrated on Figure 5 Trees are located on the steep slopes and around homes . Other vegetation, adjacent to Purgatory Creek,is within the parkland. A mixed hardwood forest exists ranging up to SO feet in height. The majority of the trees are worth perserving by fitting development as much as possible with the terrain.

Water • • The site is well drained to Purgatory Creek and because of the soil characteris- . tics absords and percolates water rapidly. No subsurface water table problems • should be encountered during construction. • Conclusion: The site has been developed at a low intensity with single family homes and some agriculatural uses . The major tree areas are located on slopes of 12-18% and the soils are easily developable taking into account the erosion and rapid percolation characteristics . The site would accommodate a variety of uses that respect the terrain . D. GOALS • 1. To provide an orderly transition from existing single family use to more appropirate non-residential and multiple residential uses. 2. To respect the criteria of the airport zoning law. 3. Improve access to the parcel and restrict access to US 169. 4. Develop in a manner that respects the natural features of the site. 5. Develop a plan that is economcially feasible given the multiple ownerships. • E. LAND USES • Figure 6, on the following page, illustrates development plans for an Industrial I-2 Park of approximately 14 acres on the upland adjacent to Co. Rd. 1 and multiple family residential of approximately 13.5 acres adjacent to the park. Access to all of the sites will be from Co. Rd. 1 with an "in-only" access to the proposed multiple family site from US. 169. The building coverage expected in the industrial park would be that permitted by Ordinance 135. The ordinance allows .3 floor area ratio for single story industrial and .5 FAR for multiple story industrial.. Anticipating normal development totally 180,000 square feet single story construction or approximately 300,000 square feet of multiple story industrial office. The multiple family tract of approximately 13.5 acres would permit either a townhouse or apartment development which might range from 50 units of townhouses to perhaps 180 apartment units. . • 3 G qq • • • • • • Staff Report-Co.Rd. 1/US 169 PUD -8- Jan. 19 , 1977 • FIGURE 6 • 11. fr' A^A` /• 1 I eta \(�•9 \ `,` ��,! �f�! • ` ` f' ' /`% . \ \1 ' Y /_ a gm 4..Fcr -ttet.

For example, the entrance to Miley's proposed building ( far west access) could be constructed immediately . A future north-south street from Co. Rd. 1 would be constructed at such time that the owners of the industrial area and/or multiple family site petition the city for access. The street could be built above the hill to provide access to the industrial areas prior to extension down • the hill to the multiple£unity site. • Staff Report-Co.Rd.1/US 169 PUD -11- Jan. 19, 1977 • Access from US 169 , an"in only"proposed, would be added at such time as the multiple family arca developed providing emergency access to the site and • relieving left turn movements at Co. Rd. l and US 169. This access must be • approved by the State Highway Department. • Other improvements at the Co. Rd. 1 and US 169 intersection are programmed by the State Highway Department and Hennepin County for letting of bids in 1978 The improvements involve moving the current access to the south any where from 100.300 feet and extending Co. Rd. I through the existing drive-in parcel or to the south and connecting with Co. Rd. 1 . Under either realignment proposal, the access to the study area would be acceptable and no less than 350 feet from the redesigned intersection of Co. Rd. 1/US 169. G. UTILITY SCHEMATIC Figure 9 represents the method to serve the site with sanitary sewer and water. The extension would not be required today , but could be made at such time development pressures warrant. Immediate development of the Miley Building could be accomplished with a holding tank if it is the desire of the owner to proceed with construction.

The development would he expected to contribute cash in lieu of land as per city ordinance or in the case of the Miley Building, the slope area adjacent to the park might be included in the park area. DEVELOPMENT PHASES It is anticipated that phase I would be the approval of the PUD for the 2 71- acres and the zoning of the 2+ acre Miley site to 1-2 Park. Phase 2 of the development might be the rezoning of other industrial sites and construction of the first phase road to serve those sites. The third phase might be extension of the public street to serve the multiple family site below the hill. The plan is designed to respect the current needs of the singlefamily homeowner while recognizing the ultimate use of their property at a later date. Timing of improvements and future developments is dependent upon the property owners. TRANSIT POTENTIAL • The site with a potential for employment and multiple£imily should include provisions for transit pick-up near the intersection with Co. Rd. l and US 169. Improvements might well be made to Co. Rd. 1 with a bus pull-off. Additional • right-of-way if needed should be provided in the-platting of the industrial lots. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS • The planning staff would recormend the approval of the PUD for the 271 acres • as outlined in this report. Secondly, the staff would recommend rezoning of the approximately 2 acres oWned by Miley Sprinkler Systems to 1-2 Park as the first phase implementation of the Co. Rd. 1/US 169 PUD . Future rezoning and platting requests by the property owners should be handled . es other PUDs with review based upon the approved PUD and zoning and plattine consistent with the concept plan. Also, a PUD fee should be charged • on a per acre basis to all land owners within the study area. That fee should he charged at the time of rezoning and he in addition to the normal platting and zoning fees. The staff would suggest the fee be $SO/acre on the property to be zoned either multiple family or industrial excluding roads and any open space dedication. Said fee should total approximately $2;100.00 and would Over the city's cost of developing the concept plan. • 39v11 approved Planninr. Commission Minutes -4- • Dec. 13, 1976 V. PETITIONS AND REQUESTS A. Miley's Sprinkler Systems Rezoning, by Mr. Miley J. Gjertsen. Request to rezone from Rural to Industrial 3.64 acres located at 13480 Pioneer Trial for the purpose of constructing a shop/warehouse for an irrigation company. The planner illustrated the site's location and referred the commission to the staff report. Mr. Darkenwald, representing Mr. Miley , stated they are in agreement with the report and desire prompt action on the rezoning. Sorensen asked if the city owns the land on either side of the site. The planner responded affirmative. Mr. Leo Kortz, 13420 Pioneer Trail, stated he is not opposed to the rezoning unless it would increase his taxes. Sorensen responded taxes would not increase based solely upon the Gjertsen rezoning approval. • The planner stated Mr. Gjertsen may elect to dedicate the slope area as shown in the report to the city or pay theparkland dedication fee. Fosnocht stated he has no objections to the industrial zoning for this site, but questions the advisibility of a public/private pud if all landowners are not in favor of it. • Fosnocht then asked to what use the facility would be put. Mr. Darkenwald stated the building would be used for light industrial and no outside storage would be required. Sorensen questioned the bay doors opening onto the public road. Mr. Gjertsen responded he believes that would be better than facing toward the parkland. The planner added that the doors' orientation may change if in the future a new road is constructed. Darkenwald stated Mr. Gjertsen would like an answer from the city by January 1st and • to build by Feb. 1st. The planner stated such a timetable could not be met as the council could not set a public hearing prior to some time in mid-January. Motionl: Fosnocht moved, Sundstrom seconded,to recommend the City Council respond to the request of Miley Sprinkler Systems and establish a city administered planned unit development jointly by the City of Eden Prairie and the property owners for the entire 25 acres located in the northwest corner of US 169 and Co. Rd. 1 as recommended in Alternate 03 in the staff report dated Dec. 8, 1976: • • 13. Recommend approval of the entire 25 ± acre area as planned unit development with park, industrial and multiple family residential land uses and rezone first phase Gjertsen property to 1-2 Park. ' Motion 1 carried 4:0:1 with Lynch abstaining. Motion 2: Eearman moved, Sundstrom seconded, to recommend the City Council consider setting a public hearing for the Miley Sprinkler Systems request for a meeting in • January. 1977.

PLAN AREA INDENTIFICATION • 1. Land Use of Study Area "The southeast quadrant is by far the smallest quadrant. It is bounded on the north by Highway 5, the west by Co. Rd. 4, and the southeast by the C.M. h St. P. Railroad. The area is about 60 acres in size, of which about 10 acres is single family residential, and 27 acres are of the existing industrial use. Within the single family subdivision there is a duplex. The industrial uses occuring along Fuller Road arc: Stewart Sandwich, Fuller Lab, Roll Tank, Champion and Kibbey Engineering." ( Page 12, 4/5 Study Report ) 2. Regional Relationships Implementation,.of the 4/S Study recommendations for the study area would result in impacts of a regional character , i.e. , access to TH 5. Development of the industrial lots without reasonable road improvements will increase the existing traffic conflicts on TH 5. Construction of a connection to Co. Rd. 4 from Fuller Road'and improvements to existing , Fuller Road and TH 5 intersection will greatly improve the access road safety for the employees within the industrial park. 3. Existing Transportation "Trunk Highway 5 currently is a state highway and functions as a major arterial west from the 494 grid serving Lake Minnetonka and • . north and central Carver County areas. TH 5 also provides a major regional link for outstate traffic connection with the metropolitan area. Currently T115 is a 9 ton improved roadway through Eden Prairie with one lane traffic in each direction except between Mitchell Road and Wallace Road in Eden Prairie's Industrial Park area. The Highway Department has continued to improve this two lane facility through provision of left turn lanes and bypass lanes at intersections. One stop light currently exists at Highway 5 with channelization of turning lanes. Current plans,as identified in the Minnesota Highway Department's backbone system,do not show major widening or improvements to TH S over the next twenty years, ratherspot safety improvements and signals such as at Mitchell Road would he added. Also, the connection of Highway S south on Co. Rd. 4 to US 212 with a modified diamond interchange at Co. Rd. 4 and US 212 is being considered by the Minnesota Highway Department for implementation in the late 1980s." V. • ( refer to transportation map on following page ) • f 91q Staff Report- EP INd.

Plan Area Conclusions The Eden Prairie Industrial Park area isan unique pattern of old and new land uses isolated by major transportation.systems. The diverse land use pattern would not be as uncommon in older suburban communities, however, in the Eden Prairie context it stands-out. The objective of planning for the study area should recognize the existing property uses and owner rights while achieving necessary public and private improvements that allow coexistence of the residential neighborhood and industrial park. • C. PLAN PROJECT AREA ANALYSIS Sections of the 4/5 Study analyzed the natural conditions of the study area: 1. Natural Features The study area has undergone significant alteration from its original condition. Development of the Lincolnwood Lane subdivision did net alter the slopes but changed the vegetation. The subdivision is atop the wooded knoll and the eastern lots overlook the existing industrial lots. The areas surrounding the residential lots have been significantly altered from its natural condition. The airphoto and topographic • map from Nov. 1964 reflects the 50 foot ridge that was removed when the Eden Prairie Industrial Park was developed. 4C i F • —. j i {6 ---.•-mow+; o '.. _-•- -% ri ).

Eden Prairie Industrial Park Rezoning., by Water Products and )abbey Engineering Companies requesting rezoning from I-2 Park to I-General for approximately 26 acres. The site is Iocated northwest of the Chicago and NW railroad and east and south of Fuller Road. The planner backgrounded the site's previous zoning of M-2 which permitted outside storage and stated the rezoning request is for rezoning from I-2 Park to I-General to again allow outside storage. He then referred the commission to the staff report and stated the staff is recommending Alternative f3, a'planned unit development approach jointly between the city and property owners. He further stated Water Products would appreciate knowing if their rezoning request is feasible. Mr.-Morehouse asked the commission to give a recommendation on the Water Product's request this evening then discussion on the pud approach could follow. Lynch inquired if Mr. Morehouse had read the report. Mr. Morehouse replied affirmative and stated he concurs with the conclusions of the report but is concerned about the time a pud approach may take. Mr. Andrew Justus, owner of 15 acres, stated he had read the report and would prefer rezoning to I-General for the entire 26 acres, but is willing to participate in a pud. Planning Commission Minutes 3- approvedDcc. 13, 1976 • Jack Eide, Roll Tank, stated they presently have outside storage on their site,but the other lot they own does not, and they desire it be rezoned to permit outside storage. He stated he would also participate in a pud. Larry Johnson, Kibbey Engineering, stated he concurs with the other landowners and • is willing to participate in the pud and desires to have outside storage. Mr. Holtz, Water Products, stated their time table is somewhat flexible , but urge a favorable decision in the reasonable near future. Glen Reed, Water Products, stated he is apprehensive about the time required for the pud approach as it could take until next Summer. Motion 1: Fosnocht moved, Lynch seconded, to recommend the City Council respond to the request from Kibbey Engineering and Water Products Company for rezoning of the Eden Prairie • Industrial Park by establishing a planned unit development to be administered jointly I . by the City of Eden Prairie and the interested landowners of the property as recom- mended in Alternative#3 in the staff report dated 12-9-76, page 7 as follows: 83. The commission recommends the industrial proposal of 29.6 acres be considered in the framework of a pud providing a variety of industrial uses and standards within that area. Certain sites might best be suited for industrial park with no outside storage • because of their proximity to TH 5, limited size or connection with residential areas. Such a pud plan would accommodate the needs of the existing businesses which have outside storage and could develop screening and appropriate landscaping while providing new sites for businesses requiring outside storage with proximity to the railroad and other I-General uses. The area around the Legion Club and southwest portion of the project might be best suited for industrial park uses or development restrictions on any outside storage as viewed from Co. Rd. 4 and Lincolnwood Addition. The pud approach would allow the city and landowners the flexibility to develop the most efficient and aesthetically pleasing industrial • development within tight site limitations. Under such a plan access for the industrial lots to TH 5 and Co. Rd.4 need to be worked out with the industries and landowners in the area. Also, the zoning of specific lots and development standards for those lots must be arranged along with a timing/phasing plan. Lastly, the actual zoning of the property would be the result of rezoning agree- ments drafted which describe development restrictions and opportunities • for each of the sites. The motion carried unanimously. Notion 2: Lynch moved, Fosnocht seconded, that the City Council give this request immediate consideration if possible. The motion carried unanimously. • • • • 3g27 idRiley- Purgatory Creek Watershed District �LI ,w • 8950 COUNTY ROAD 44 L .� • ♦ EOEN PRAIRIE,MINNESOTA 55343 "4 f� November 30, 1976 i.

A grading and land alteration permit must be obtained from the Watershed District for this development. This permit should be obtained after the development has been approved by the City Council, but before building permits are issued. Plans detailing how erosion will be controlled during the project construction sewer should accompany the permit application.
