Vice Chair Farr asked Klima to review the staff report. Klima said this is a
proposal to build a freestanding building in the Jerry’s parking lot. This building
would house three tenants; Starbuck’s will be one of them and the other two are
unknown at this time. There is a waiver requested for parking. The parking
analysis is in the staff report. Currently there are 433 parking stalls on site. With
this proposed project, the City requirement is 417 parking stalls. With the three
restaurants on site, there would be 70 seats and a total of 78,664 square feet of retail
space between the 2 buildings. The zoning ordinance requirement is based on one
parking stall for every 3-restaurant seats and five parking stalls for every 1,000
square feet of retail space. The current condition provides 5.57 parking stall per
1,000 square feet of retail plus 24 parking stalls for the restaurant. The plan as
proposed provides 378 parking stalls. This would be 4.5 parking stalls per 1,000
square feet for the retail space and 24 parking spaces for the restaurants. Currently,
there is an outdoor sales activity area reducing the number to parking stalls to four
per 1,000 square feet. The developer has agreed to discontinue this and staff
recommendation is for approval of the waiver at 4.5 stalls per 1,000 square feet.
The project proponent is also requesting a signage waiver. Current code allows two
freestanding signs not to exceed 80 and 36 square feet. The project proponent is
proposing one sign not to exceed 166 square feet. Klima also pointed out the
developer held a neighborhood meeting in December and answered questions from
residents. Staff recommendation is for approval of this project.
Vice Chair Farr asked what was happening with the Park & Ride that was on site.
Klima said Southwest Transit informed City staff the park and ride agreements is
not in place for this site.
Farr asked about the two vacant uses of the building and why they are deemed non-
restaurant. He also wanted to know if the Starbuck’s in the old building was taken
into consideration for parking. Klima said it was taken into consideration. The
analysis of the remaining tenant space was conducted to ensure adequate parking is
provided. Staff anticipates language to be included in the Development Agreement
addressing the required parking count for either retail or restaurant uses.
Vice Chair Farr asked the project proponents to present their proposal.
Brady Busselman, civil engineer with Sambatek at 12800 White Water Drive in
Minnetonka introduced himself.

Mike Jutz representing Jerry’s Enterprise, 5101 Vernon Avenue, Edina, introduced
himself.
Mr. Busselman presented the proposal. He said currently the parking ratio is 5.6
stalls per 1,000 sq. feet. He stated the purpose for the new Starbuck’s is because the
existing Starbuck’s does not have an opportunity for a drive-thru. He pointed out
the building elevations are constructed with brick and glass and some EIFS. Mr.
Jutz said they want the new building to look similar to what is there already.
Vice Chair Farr asked if the project proponent could talk about the neighborhood
meeting. Mr. Jutz said there were 7 to 8 individuals in attendance and it was a very
positive meeting. Most of the residents there were looking for more food places in
the area so they were very supportive of Starbuck’s.
Vice Chair Farr asked the project proponent to talk about storm water management
on the site. Mr. Busselman pointed out the storm sewer will be re-routed along the
south property line and will empty into the existing Hennepin Town Road storm
sewer system. Vice Chair Farr commented he would like the areas that are more
contaminated to be treated. Mr. Busselman said there are a couple constraints they
are running into with this. The first one is they need to keep the bottom feature
three feet about level. To bring additional run-off water in would be very
expensive. They are bypassing the storm water from the south.
Vice Chair Farr asked if they made best efforts to save the two significant trees on
site. Mr. Busselman said they are very tight in that area but commented they would
be willing to look at swapping trees.
Higgins asked if the idea of a rain garden works here. Mr. Busselman said it is
tricky to have a rain garden in this area but pointed out there will be vegetation
around the infiltration system.
DeSanctis asked what the sub strait of the soil is. Mr. Busselman said there are no
structural issues.
Freiberg said he wanted to thank Jerry’s for this project, as it is an enhancement to
the area. He did have a question and asked how tight the driveway would be
coming down Anderson Lakes Parkway. Mr. Busselman said it would be a 90-
degree turn, which is standard. Higgins commented she heard about problems with
drive-thru areas and cars sacking up. Mr. Busselman said they are comfortable with
the design and this area could accommodate 10 cars stacking. The cars will not
block any of the entrances.
Vice Chair Farr commented with the improvements this would do away with the
seasonal sales. He asked how the project proponent would handle snow removal.
Mr. Jutz said they could push it further onto the green spaces.

Wuttke asked about the drive-thru and said there is one tree mitigating light and
asked if it could become an issue with traffic. He asked what measures are being
taken for light shed. Mr. Busselman said there would be 3-foot shrubs that will help
with the headlights in the area. There is also a bit of a hill, which will help with the
glare. Klima said the landscape plan has shrubs on the east side of the drive-thru
and staff is comfortable with the screening.
Vice Chair Farr asked if they were upgrading lighting to LED. Mr. Jutz said yes,
they were discussing changing the lighting to LED.
Vice Chair Farr opened the meeting up for public input.
Steven Bartz, of 9259 Amsden Way, lives in the Preserve Community and said he
welcomes this new improvement and the updates to Jerry’s. He said living in the
Preserve he can walk up to Jerry’s, which is nice. He said his concern is that he
does a lot of walking and asked if there was any research done for traffic in and out
of the area and is the area going to be conducive to walking traffic. He asked how
the walkability will be preserved for safety reasons. Vice Chair Farr said there was
a traffic study done and in the staff report it does discuss pedestrian walkways. He
said he was unsure if there was a walkway to the new building. Mr. Bartz said his
concern is the Hennepin Town Road going in and out of the lot and the increased
traffic it may produce. He would like to see increased signage and marked
walkways but said he felt the parking lot was safe to walk in. Rue said in regards to
the traffic study, there were 1900 new driveway trips per day. This study also
indicated most of the traffic was pass by traffic. Rue also said they typically do not
put cross walks on side streets. Rue said any stop signs with in the retail center
would be the responsibility of the property owner. Mr. Busselman stated they can
accommodate stripping if the City finds it acceptable.
Kirk commented this was a very well thought out project and in regards to parking
spaces he feels there should be enough room and feels this project is a good
addition to Eden Prairie.
MOTION: Weber moved, seconded by Higgins, to close the public hearing.
Motion carried 7-0.
MOTION: Weber moved, seconded by Kirk, to recommend approval of the
Preserve Village Retail Building – Jerry’s Foods project based on the plans stamp

X. CONTINUING BUSINESS
XI. NEW BUSINESS
Wuttke said in regards to parking, he would like to know if there was any follow up by the
City Staff for parking stall waivers. Klima said the City Staff does monitor sites for
complaints and they do visit sites. Residents or businesses in the area would notify the City
if there were problems. Wuttke asked if staff just monitors during the normal business
hours and not the am/pm hours. Klima said staff does view the sites outside of business
hours. She also pointed out if there are concerns residents have opportunities such as See-
Click-Fix to share those with the City. Farr said he is impressed with the technology in
regards to Aspire 2040 and the fact that residents can click on an area and discuss it.
DeSanctis asked with the previous project, what type of garbage receptacles would be on
site. Klima said they will have an enclosed garbage site on the area and any garbage
receptacles throughout the area will be maintained by the businesses.
XII. ADJOURNMENT
MOTION: Wuttke moved, seconded by Kirk, to adjourn the Planning Commission
meeting. Motion carried 7-0.
Chair Pieper adjourned the meeting at 7:54 p.m.
STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Angie Perera, Planner 1
DATE: March 22, 2018
SUBJECT: Code Amendment – Breweries, Distilleries, Taprooms, & Cocktail Rooms
BACKGROUND:
Staff is recommending amendments to City Code Chapter 11 to address breweries, distilleries,
taprooms, and cocktail rooms. These definitions are already included within Chapter 4 pertaining to
Beer, Wine and Liquor Licensing Requirements and these same definitions are proposed to be added
to Chapter 11. These uses are also proposed to be included as permitted uses within the Commercial
and Industrial zoning districts, and parking requirements are proposed to be established as well.
The city does not currently have any existing breweries; however, staff has had recent inquiries
pertaining to the potential use. Distilleries and breweries continue to be the trend on the rise;
therefore, staff is proposing amendments to address these specific uses appropriately within the code.
A map has been attached illustrating the properties currently zoned to correspond with the proposed
amendment.
DISCUSSION:
Staff conducted research on existing brewery and distillery establishments, Minnesota State statutes,
and regulations of other city codes within the region. Most city codes permit breweries and
distilleries in commercial and/or industrial zoning districts. Breweries typically include a taproom
and micro distilleries typically include a cocktail room to allow customers to consume onsite. The
definitions of these uses vary in different codes but the language is similar to language as listed in
Minnesota State Statutes. State statute includes regulations for these uses and licensing requirements.
Most city codes list theses uses as permitted uses, conditional uses, or permitted uses with special
conditions or restrictions. Of other city codes researched, staff found that parking requirements for
taprooms and cocktail rooms typically require similar parking requirements as restaurants when
comparing number of required parking spaces based on number of seats versus number of parking
spaces required based on total gross floor area.
The following definitions are proposed to be inserted into City Code, Chapter 11, Section 11.02 with
definitions renumbered accordingly. These definitions are consistent with those already provided in
Chapter 4 of the City Code:

“Brewer Taproom” is a brewer licensed under section 340A.301, subdivision 6, clause (c), (1), or
(j) who also holds a retail license to sell on-sale malt liquor produced by the brewer for
consumption on the premises of or adjacent to a brewery location owned by the brewer.”
“Cocktail Room” is an establishment on the premises of or adjacent to one distillery location owned
by a distiller for the on-sale of distilled liquor produced by the distiller.”
“Microdistillery” is a distillery operated within the state producing premium, distilled spirits in
total quantity not to exceed 40,000 proof gallons in a calendar year, which distillery is licensed
under Minn. Stat. Chap. 340A.
“Small Brewer” is a brewer licensed under section 340A.301, subdivision 6, clause (c), (i), or (j)
who also holds a retail license to sell off-sale malt liquor at its licensed premises which has been
produced and packaged by the brewer.
Commercial Districts
Staff is proposing that a “Small Brewer with Brewer Taproom” and “Microdistillery with Cocktail
Room” be included as permitted uses within the following sections of the City Code:
• Section 11.25, Commercial Districts, Subd. 2 Permitted Uses
• Section 11.26, TOD-MU, Subd. 4 A. Permitted Uses
• Section 11.26, TOD-E, Subd. 4 C. Permitted Uses
• Section 11.27, TC-MU, Subd. 5 Permitted Uses
• Section 11.27, TC-C, Subd. 5 Permitted Uses
• Section 11.28, A-C, Subd. 2 Permitted Uses
The intent is to require that both Small Brewer and Microdistillery establishments have a customer
activity component required with it since most of these zoning districts have commercial uses
associated with the purpose and intent of these districts.
Industrial Districts
Staff is recommending that “Small Brewer, “Small Brewer with Brewer Taproom”, “Microdistillery”
and “Microdistillery with Cocktail Room” be included as permitted uses within the following section
of the City Code:
• Section 11.30 Industrial, Subd. 2 Permitted Uses
Parking Requirements
Staff is proposing amendments to the off-street parking requirements for the proposed uses.
Proposed amendments to the sections of the City Code are listed below:

Depending upon specific locations proposed for breweries, distilleries, taprooms, and cocktail rooms,
waivers to the parking requirements may be requested. Parking availability is site specific and based
on the mixture of tenant uses, although there may also be potential opportunities for shared parking
due to complementary peak business hours. This will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

dated 3/22/18:

Subd. 1. Purposes.
The intent of the Transit Oriented Development (TOD) zoning ordinance is to provide for development of attractive,
compact, pedestrian-friendly, high density, environmentally and economically sustainable, transit-oriented areas which
allow a complementary mix of land uses. A TOD land use pattern supports transit system investments, optimizes
development opportunities, and helps achieve many goals and policies outlined in the Eden Prairie Comprehensive Plan.
To support the intent of Transit Oriented Development (TOD), the specific purposes of the TOD zoning districts are to:

Performance Standards
1.All off-street parking in the TOD-E District shall be provided in an enclosed building or structure except as follows:
visitor parking may be provided as surface parking behind buildings or on secondary transit streets as designated in the
Comprehensive Guide Plan. Developments may provide for visitor parking through on-street and/or district/joint use
parking when reviewed and approved through a Planned Unit Development.
2. The location and quantity of off-street parking will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis as part of the development
review process. Off-street parking requirements can be reduced if the applicant can demonstrate meeting the requirement
through joint use, district, off-site, or on-street parking. See Subdivision 6 for more on off-street parking standards.
3. Parking ramps facing a public street must be must be appropriately screened as required in Subdivision 6.
4. For new development occurring within the TOD Districts, on-street parking along the use’s lot frontage may count
towards the parking requirements when reviewed and approved through a Planned Unit Development. This count shall be
rounded to the nearest whole number.
Density Standards - TOD E District Performance Standards
Floor Area Ratio (FAR) 1 .5 min 1. Parking structures shall not be included in calculation

contiguous square feet. Usable open space in Mixed Use and Commercial sub-districts should be located near
primary building entrances and be accessible by the public from a public sidewalk or streetscape area at least
during normal business hours of the surrounding area.
Subd. 3. Sub-Districts. The TC zoning district is divided into three (3) sub-districts:
A. Town Center Mixed Use (TC-MU): Town Center Mixed-use requires higher intensity vertical mixed-use
buildings with ground floor retail shops, services and restaurants that front onto Town Center’s “Main Streets”
and are pedestrian-oriented. In order to support a live/work/play environment, the upper floors shall be primarily
residential uses, both rental and ownership housing, with a minimal amount of office uses allowed.
B. Town Center Residential (TC-R): Town Center Residential allows a mix of stacked housing types including high
density high-rise residential and high density mid-rise residential. These higher density housing types, both
rental and ownership, shall be designed to optimize the district’s walkable access to retail, services, restaurants,
parks and trails, transit and community facilities. High rise buildings shall be located and designed to take
advantage of views of nearby natural amenities and where significant shading of lower buildings will not occur.
C. Town Center Commercial (TC-C): Town Center Commercial allows a mix of lower intensity commercial uses
including community retail, services, restaurants, entertainment, office, and hospitality/lodging. Site layout,
building design and parking strategies shall support the compact and pedestrian-oriented character of the district.
Subd. 4. Design Guidelines. All new development, redevelopment and subdivisions within the Town Center district
shall be in substantial conformance with the Town Center Design Guidelines. Development proposals will be reviewed as
part of the Site Plan and Architectural Design Review process for conformance with the City Codes and the Design
Guidelines.
Subd. 5. Permitted Uses. Table 1 establishes the permitted and accessory uses in the TC zoning district.

A. All new buildings shall have primary entrance doors facing a public sidewalk or public open space and spaced
no more than sixty (60) feet apart. A primary entrance is defined as a principal entrance through which people
enter the building. A building or individual business may have more than one primary entrance. Building
entrances may include doors to individual businesses, lobby entrances, entrances to pedestrian-oriented plazas,
or courtyard entrances to a cluster of stores. Primary entrances shall be open to the public during all business
hours.
B. Primary building entrances shall be architecturally emphasized and visible from the street. Primary building
entrances shall be clearly defined and highly visible utilizing design features such as awnings, canopies, pillars,
unique building materials and/or architectural details.
C. A minimum percentage of a mixed-use and commercial building’s street-facing ground level façade between
two (2) feet and eight (8) feet in height shall be comprised of clear windows, as specified in the Street Level
Frontage Transparency standard in Table 3 above, in order to allow views of indoor non-residential space or
product display areas. Required windows shall have a sill no higher than four (4) feet above the adjacent
sidewalk.
Subd. 10. Provision of Off-Street Parking Facilities.
A. Due to the more urban pedestrian oriented character of the Town Center area, the location and quantity of off-
street parking spaces will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis as part of the development review process. In
general, the intent is for developments to provide a reduced number of off-street parking spaces to account for
availability of joint and shared-use parking, parking efficiencies resulting from a compact mixed-use
development pattern, on-street parking, transit, walking and bicycling. Off-street parking facilities shall be
provided as established in Table 4 or as determined through the development review process, recognizing the
potential for district, shared and public parking. Table 4 establishes minimum and maximum off-street parking
standards for uses within the Town Center district.
