SOUTHWEST STATION PUD AMENDMENT Eden Prairie Planning Commission Minutes December 7, 2015 Page 2 Location: 13500 Technology Drive Request for: • Planned Unit Development District Review with waivers on 11.38 acres • Zoning District Amendment within the Commercial Regional Services Zoning District on 11.38 acres • Site Plan Review on 11.38 acres Klima said this project is in conjunction with the proposed light rail transit project. It includes removal of two existing buildings, construction of a parking ramp addition, construction of a new indoor waiting area and other site changes. Klima stated that because the Metropolitan Council is a regional authority, it is not required to go through a public review process but is here tonight to discuss them. The City Council will review the proposed changes at its January 5, 2016 meeting. Staff has provided some talking points that the Commission may utilize to prompt discussion tonight and is seeking any feedback from the Commission. Ryan Kronzer, project designer, presented a PowerPoint presentation. He stated the alignment for the LRT will start at Target Field and will end in Eden Prairie. The current structure of the Southwest building was looked at and the architectural team concluded the darker building fit better in Eden Prairie. In regards to the proposed site plan,he discussed how the LRT would travel on the bridge structure from Bachmann's to the Southwest Station. Mr. Kronzer pointed out that no buses would ever cross the LRT tracks. There will be a passenger drop off structure under the building and will have an indoor waiting area and two left turn lanes into the SW station. Mr. Kronzer showed the proposed station which will have five bus gates and awaiting area.. The exterior material will consist of metal panels and more vertical proportions. Farr asked if metal panels were aluminum. Mr. Kronzer stated they are aluminum. Klima said in previous discussion with staff she would like the Commission to have a discussion in regards to the pattern of perforations, specifically seeking comment on whether the Commission prefers patterns or random design; the appropriate material to be used in stairwell design and the inclusion of vertical elements. Chair Stoltz asked if there were any comments from the Commission. Farr said he would like the removal of the sign from the existing tower so people migrate towards the entrance points of the parking structure. Wuttke asked what availability there is for new signage on the building. Klima said that staff is researching the current approvals and will continue to work with the project office on this. Chair Stoltz asked the Commission its thoughts on random patterns; should there be more or less. Wuttke asked about the perforations in some of the material and could they be larger. Mr. Kronzer stated the size of the perforations now is for the screening of headlights. Wuttke asked what visual impact this would have for the condos to the west of the structure. Mr. Kronzer said there is no lighting going into Eden Prairie Planning Commission Minutes December 7, 2015 Page 3 the area of the condos. Kirk said he agreed with Wuttke saying denser materials should be used toward the bottom. Farr commented the whole pattern should block headlights and suggested not to use copper as a color choice as it tends to turn green. Mr. Kronzer said they have not picked a color yet,but are partial to bronze. Kirk asked if they could be different bronze colors. The project proponent said they will take that into consideration. Farr asked if the perimeter columns would match up with the color of the vertical columns. Mr. Kronzer said they were looking at whiter columns and looking for a warmer white. Wuttke said in regards to the structure,he likes the different geometric shapes being used. Farr said in regards to proving additional vertical elements, the columns on the existing parking ramp stick up a bit and it is not carried through on the current design and asked if it could be extended to the new building. Farr said in regards to the corner from Technology Drive, he would like to see a softening of the corner to help with the streetscape. Kirk commented he liked the design of the tower. Higgins asked, in regards to the glass stairwell, is that sun facing because it can get very hot in the enclosure. Chair Stoltz opened the meeting up for public input. There was none. Farr said he was pleased with the project and thanked the architect for his attention to detail. Kirk thanked them for coming in and discussing this with the Commission. MOTION by Kirk, seconded by Higgins, to close the public hearing. Motion carried 6-0. MOTION by Kirk, seconded by Pieper, to recommend approval of the Planned Unit Development District Review with waivers on 11.38 acres; Zoning District Amendment with the Commercial Regional Services Zoning District on 11.38 acres and Site Plan Review on 11.38 acres with consideration of comments provided by the Planning Commission and staff based on the information included in staff report and plans stamp dated December 4, 2015. Motion carried 6-0. B. EDEN PRAIRIE SENIOR LIVING Location: 10220, 10240 & 10280 Hennepin Town Road Eden Prairie Planning Commission Minutes December 7, 2015 Page 4 Request for: • Guide Plan Change from Low Density Residential and Office to High Density Residential on 3.37 acres • Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 3.37 acres • Planned Unit Development district Review with waivers on 3.37 acres • Zoning District Change from Rural and Office to RM-2.5 on 3.37 acres • Site Plan Review on 3.37 acres • Preliminary Plat of five lots into one lot on 3.37 acres Link Wilson, representing Kaas Wilson Architects, presented a PowerPoint presentation illustrating the proposal. He said there are 5 parcels and a City utility structure is located on the property and said the greatest challenge tonight will be the zoning. The proposal is to combine the parcels and construct a senior living project. . Mr. Wilson stated there is a one story element where they are asking for a waiver to the front yard setback. He also stated earlier this summer they had a neighborhood meeting to discuss development of these properties. This senior living center will be a new concept, including memory care, assisted living, and independent living. Mr. Wilson pointed out there is such a high demand for senior living and feels this will be a good fit for this land. He stated the proposal is for 120 units and pointed out that the majority of residents will not be driving and the workers will be parking in the garage. There will be a beautiful lobby with this facility, along with a laundry room and fitness center. The project proposes a mix of studios, one bedroom and two bedroom units. The exterior material will consist of stone, brick and metal. Albert Miller, Property Developer, stated -12% of the units would be affordable housing. Chair Stoltz asked Klima to review the staff report. Klima said the proposal is for a 2-story structure with 120 units. They are seeking parking requirement waivers; code is for 240 spaces and they are proposing 97 spaces. In regards to the density, they are proposing 38 units per acre. There are also additional waivers requested at certain locations for the setback of the building. Staff recommends approval with stipulations on the exterior material and landscaping and would like the project proponent to work with staff to address these issues before proceeding to City Council review and subject to the conditions outlined in the staff report. Farr asked Klima about the properties west and northwest and would there be shared driveways and what about the triangular right-of-way adjacent to the property. Klima said they have encouraged the developer to reach out to the homeowners. Rue said in regards to the triangular right-of-way, additional research on the ability to transfer. Mr. Wilson said they will maintain the triangular piece of property and could come back later to create a maintenance agreement or land swap deal. Pieper asked in regards to parking, if the proposal is similar to other facilities. Klima said in regards to other high density projects in Eden Prairie, others have received density waivers. Eden Prairie Planning Commission Minutes December 7, 2015 Page 5 Farr's' comments are as follows: 1. The concern with the loading areas as there are not many spots in front of the building for delivery; only 12. He also pointed out the kitchen is on the opposite side of the front door and can create a challenge for food delivery. 2. Parking reduction is not a concern. 3. In regards to the building design, when driving on Highway 169, Pioneer Trail is at a low point from both ways and what you get is a low flat roof line and asked if there could be some design features incorporated in the structure. Chair Stoltz said he would like Mr. Wilson to talk about parking stalls. Mr. Wilson said that was a good point about deliveries and said a turning circle would work better for these. He pointed out deliveries will be made to the front of the building and the neighbors would not see it. Trash is located below the building. When there are holidays or Mother's Day, they can contract with businesses in the area and do valet parking. Mr. Wilson also said that was a great comment on the roof top and they will look into redesigning that. He also said they can work with staff or accept a continuance. Farr said he would like to discuss the landscape plan as it does not appear they have one. Klima said in regards to the landscaping plan, they would like to continue to work with the applicant. She pointed out that a waiver is not being requested for landscaping,but staff is continuing to work with the developer on it. Farr said he would like to see more outside gathering areas; more outdoor space versus just the outdoor patio area. Higgins said she would like to see additional trees planted for bird watching. Chair Stoltz opened the meeting up for public input. Annette O'Connor, of 10444 Fawns Way, said she is concerned because this is a family neighborhood area and now a big building is going to be erected here. She said she will now have to wait to take a right hand turn to get onto Highway 169 and now her wait will be more as she will have to wait for delivery options. She stated the traffic will be bad and the noise of Highway 169 will be very loud if the trees are taken out. She stated she does not agree doubling the density and asked how fire trucks would get in. Rue said on the north side of this property the right lane will be developed and said he does not see a problem with traffic. Klima said the fire department has reviewed this area for access issues and does not see a problem. Mr. Wilson said in regards to Mrs. O'Connor's comments there will be two shifts for the employees at the facility. They are 7 am to 3 pm and 3 pm to 11 pm. Traffic will be staggered and there should not be that many deliveries per day. In regards to Farr's comments, Mr. Wilson said they can work with city staff on additional open space. Eden Prairie Planning Commission Minutes December 7, 2015 Page 6 Annette O'Connor said during rush hour on Highway 169, when cars exit onto the frontage road she anticipates there will be more traffic. Wuttke suggested a left turn amber flash. Rue said they have been working with Hennepin County on this and other places in Eden Prairie. Jennifer Scott, at 10252 Normandy Crest, said her house is right across from the street where traffic will come in and out and she is worried about headlights in her house. She also thinks this parcel should not be slated for more density but less. Mrs. Kretchman, who lives on Normandy Crest in the twin homes, said she is in favor of this project. She said senior citizens are good neighbors and would rather see this development versus a bank or regular apartment building. Tony Skenzich of 10332 Hennepin Town Road said he is in favor of the project but would like to know the total height of the building and where it ends. He asked if the sound wall on Highway 169 will be extended and how long will this project take. Mr. Wilson said in regards to the first question it is 31.4 feet high and 41.4 feet high towards the fascia and is essentially a 3 story building. They have had good conversation with MnDOT and have agreed to erect a fence or add additional landscaping. He also stated they are advocating for a stop sign in this area. The project should take 12 months with the noisiest being in the first three months. David Allen, of 10407 Fawns Way, said he is pleasantly surprised with the project. He said in regards to affordability,he would like to see it at 20 percent. He said in regards to Farr's comment about outdoor space,he appreciates that and would like to see some of that come to fruition. He also asked if the sidewalk would connect to Pioneer Trail. Mr. Wilson said the proposed sidewalk would just be on this property. Rue said it is in the City right-of-way to construct the sidewalk as it states in the staff report and will connect to Pioneer Trail. Farr said he is not comfortable moving this project forward and would like the developer to incorporate some or the suggestions given tonight. Pieper agreed with Farr. Kirk said if the Commission does continue this item; the Commission needs to have a concise list to give to the developer. Higgins agreed with Kirk. Wuttke stated he does not agree with the 20 percent affordability as it may not make this project profitable and he would like to see the City and project proponent work together on this. Pieper said he also has concerns about the 20 percent affordability. Mr. Wilson said they have taken many notes and would be willing to accept a continuance. Wuttke asked about the easement for the lift station. Rue said there would be an access easement that would be required. Eden Prairie Planning Commission Minutes December 7, 2015 Page 7 Chair Stoltz said the issues to be worked on by the project proponent are: architecture, exterior material, landscaping, open space, retaining wall and affordability. MOTION by Farr, seconded by Wuttke, to recommend a continuance to the January 11, 2016 meeting. Motion carried 6-0. C. KAL POINT Location: 13105, 13075 and 13045 Pioneer Trail Request for: • Guide Plan Change from Neighborhood Commercial to Community Commercial on 2.98 acres • Planned Unit Concept Review on 2.98 acres • Planned Unit Development District Review with waivers on 2.98 acres • Zoning District Change from Neighborhood Commercial to Community Commercial on 2.98 acres • Site Plan review on 2.98 acres • Preliminary Plat of three lots into two lots on 2.98 acres Kalyan Vempaty presented the proposal. He stated this is a proposal to construct a 20,000 square foot grocery space with a drive thru. The hours of operation would be Monday through Sunday, 8 am to 11 pm. There are 3 parcels that will be combined into 2. Chair Stoltz asked Klima to review the staff report. Klima said the request is for the construction of two buildings on 3 acres. The first building would be a 20,000 square foot grocery space with a drive thru. The second would be a 4200 square foot stand- alone multi-unit retail building. Waivers are for the setback on the common lot line and also for the floor and base area ratio. . Staff would like to work with the project proponent on landscaping and the fagade for architectural features on the west side of the western building. Klima said staff is requesting an interim grading plan on the western most building. Staff recommendation is for approval. Wuttke asked about storm water mitigation on the property. Chad Ayer, architect on the project, said the property will be surrounded by mitigation controls and there will be three infiltration bases on the north sides. Farr asked why there are two lots instead of one. Mr. Vempaty said in the future if they want to separate the lot, they can. Farr asked if there would be an issue with the drive-thru. Klima said staff has been reviewing the plan with the project proponent Farr asked about storm water and said there is very little sloping on the east side and asked if that was adequate. Mr. Ayer said they are comfortable with the sloping. Rue said the City concurs with Mr. Ayer. Eden Prairie Planning Commission Minutes December 7, 2015 Page 8 Farr said that there are some changes to the west side of the smaller building that could be made to enhance the appearance. Wuttke asked if they reached out to the neighborhood and what kind of feedback did they receive. The project proponent said they have not reached out to the neighborhood. Klima said that the City did send out public hearing notices within 500 feet of the subject property. Chair Stoltz opened the meeting for public input. Ken Hanson, of 13050 Pioneer Trail, said he has some concerns on the architectural structure of the building and commented when it gets windy he has concerns about the garbage flying around. Wuttke said he has seen garbage being a bit heavier in grocery store lots and is concerned with this area as it is busy. He would like to see a barrier for the trash. Farr said the trash is maintained in a trash enclosure so he does not see a problem with this. Kirk asked about the fagade on the west side of the building and asked if that was a stipulation prior to approval. Klima said they wanted to work with the project proponent before this project is reviewed by the City Council. Jim Dungan, of 12909 Pioneer Trail, is in a commercial building next to this property and stated he does not want the building going up to look like a strip mall. MOTION by Farr, seconded by Kirk, to close the public hearing. Motion carried 6- 0. MOTION by Farr, seconded by Wuttke, to recommend approval of the Guide Plan Change from Neighborhood Commercial to Community Commercial on 2.98 acres; Planned Unit Concept Review on 2.98 acres; Planned Unit Development District Review with waivers on 2.98 acres; Zoning District Change from neighborhood Commercial to Community Commercial on 2.98 acres; Site Plan Review on 2.98 acres and Preliminary Plat of three lots into two lots on 2.98 acres based on the information included in staff report dated December 4, 2015. Motion carried 6-0. D. MARTIN BLU TRAIL Location: 142 & 14301 Martin Drive Request for: • Planned Unit Development District Review with waivers on 0.97 acres • Site Plan Review on 0.97 acres Mark Anderson, civil engineer with Dos Manitas, presented the proposal utilizing a PowerPoint presentation. He stated the proposed amendment is for the trail on the east side of the property by the day care facility. He pointed out parking is reduced by the revised trail and they are seeking a PUD waiver to reduce the proof of parking. Eden Prairie Planning Commission Minutes December 7, 2015 Page 9 Chair Stoltz asked Klima to review the staff report. Klima said this request stems from the relocation of the trail. The project proponent has worked with staff on this relocation. Staff recommends approval based on the conditions listed in the staff report. Kirk stated he is concerned with the parking waiver but thinks it is a good idea to link the trail with the day care facility. Mr. Anderson pointed out there is a steep slope to the east and would be very difficult to put the trail in there so this was the best location. Wuttke asked if the trail is needed and if so, were other options addressed. Klima said the trail can be approved, approved with stipulations, denied or continued. Wuttke asked what the cost would be for finishing the trail. Bourne said he cannot forecast what the cost would be for finishing the trail. Farr asked if this is a short cut trail or a nature trail. He stated there is a big difference between the two and would like some more clarity on this. Kirk asked who wants the trail. He said it could have a negative impact to the day care site if no one wants it. Scott Carlston, owner and developer of Martin Blu, said it was his idea to construct the trail. He thought residents could take their dogs for a walk on the current trail but it is dilapidated. He said he worked with staff to relocate it on the day care facility as directed by the City Council. Staff communicated that a bituminous trail would need to be e 8 feet wide. . Chair Stoltz asked Mr. Carlston what he wants to do. Mr. Carlson said he will what whatever the City wants him to do. Chair Stoltz asked what the time line of the project is. Mr. Carlston said this is one of the last items in the developer's agreement. Farr suggested constructing a trail on the east side of the building. Mr. Carlston said there is actually a 3 foot drop to get there so that would not work. Wuttke asked if we were to deny this, would the Commission have to give a reason and a suggestion for something else. Klima said the Commission is not approving or denying this, but rather is providing a recommendation to City Council. Kirk said the Commissioners should recommend denial with the recommendation to delete the trail from the agreement. Chair Stoltz said the reason for denying this would be future parking implications. Eden Prairie Planning Commission Minutes December 7, 2015 Page 10 MOTION by Wuttke, seconded by Kirk, to close the public hearing. Motion carried 6-0. MOTION by Wuttke, seconded by Kirk, to recommend denial of the Planned Unit Development District Review with waivers on 0.97 acres and Site Plan Review on 0.97 acres based on the information included in the staff report dated December 4, 2015 with discussion to give guidance to City Council to suggest removal of the obligation from the 2012 Developer's Agreement to construct a trail for Martin Blu. Motion carried 6-0. E. CODE AMENDMENT RELATED TO LOADING FACILITIES, MECHANICAL EUIPMENT, SITE LIGHTING AND TRASH AND RECYCLING ENCLOSERS Klima said there has been inconsistent use of terminology provided in the City Code and this provides standards for lighting. Staff recommendation is for approval. Farr said in 11-16, there are 2 paragraphs on ground and building and in the ground paragraph it references "rooftop" and asked for clarification regarding the placement of this text. Klima said that staff will review further. Farr said in 11-25, under parking lot pole items, we should be aware that trees can grow and create dark spots. Klima said it this moves forward, City staff will work with the developers to address this issue. Higgins suggested getting a certain species of trees that do not grow that high. Chair Stoltz opened the meeting up for public input. There was no input. MOTION by Kirk, seconded by Pieper, to close the public hearing. Motion carried 6-0. MOTION by Pieper, seconded by Wuttke, to recommend approval of the Code Amendment related to loading facilities, mechanical equipment, site lighting and trash and recycling enclosures based on the information included in the staff report dated December 4, 2015.
