VI. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. CITY YARD WASTE DROP SITE
Location: 9811 Flying Cloud Dr.
Request for:
• Site Plan Review on 13.84 acres
The City of Eden Prairie is requesting approval of a Site Plan to establish a yard waste
drop off area at the Maintenance Outdoor Storage Site (M.O.S.S.) at 9811 Flying
Cloud Drive. The property is 13.84 acres and is located on the east side of Flying
Cloud Drive approximately '/4 south west of Pioneer Trail across from airport property.
The site currently includes a 11,700 square foot sand/salt storage canopy building built
in 2005 and a 12,884 square foot cold storage (unheated) equipment building for
storage of off season equipment built in 2015. The site is also used by the City for the
storage of trees and brush, construction material, vehicles and equipment. The
proposal includes adding areas for residents to drop off yard waste, trees and brush.
MOTION 1: Move to close the public hearing.
MOTION 2: Move to recommend approval of the Site Plan Review on 13.84 acres based
on plan stamp dated May 9, 2019 and staff report dated May 8, 2019.
B. CASTLE RIDGE(Continued Item)
Location: 615-635 Prairie Center Dr.

• Zoning District Review on 19.75 acres and Zoning District Change from C-Corn
to RM-2.5 on 1.4 acres
• Site Plan Review on 6.94 acres
• Preliminary Plat of four lots into one lot and three outlots on 19.75 acres
The applicant is proposing to redevelop the 19.75 acres of property at the northwest corner of
Flying Cloud Drive and Prairie Center Drive. The existing use of the property includes the Castle
Ridge Care Center which includes 82 care center units, Broadmoor Apartments which includes
240 units for general occupancy, and vacant property. The Broadmoor Apartments include and
include studio, 1 BR and 2 BR units. The property is very near to commercial uses and park and
open space. The site received City approvals for a master planned redevelopment project in 2008,
however, that project was not constructed except for the CVS store located at 8251 Columbine
Drive.
With this application, the property owners are requesting approval of an updated master plan.
With this review process, Presbyterian Homes is coordinating with 2 development partners for the
proposed outlot areas. Due to these partnerships, the outlots are not on the same timeline for
construction as the Presbyterian Homes site. Therefore, the applicant requests full approvals for
the Presbyterian Homes portion of the site (Lot 1) and PUD concept review of Outlots A and B.
Final development plans for the outlots would be reviewed through a separate process closer to the
time of anticipated construction. As part of the PUD concept review for the outlots, the potential
developers are seeking feedback from the Commission on the proposed concept plans.
The public hearing for this item was opened at the April 22 meeting and continued to the May 13
meeting to allow the applicant to address outstanding items. The applicant has addressed these
items, as well as, other items noted by the Commission on April 22. The revised plans include
these revisions and memos have been provided responding to the questions raised during the
public hearing.
MOTION 1: Move to close the public hearing.
MOTION 2: Move to recommend approval of Planned Unit Development Concept Revie
on 19.75 acres; Planned Unit Development District Review with waivers on 19.75 acres;
Zoning District Review on 19.75 acres and Zoning District Change from C-Com to RM-2.5
on 1.4 acres; Site Plan Review on 6.94 acres and Preliminary Plat of four lots inot one lot
and three outlots on 19.75 acres, based on plans stamped dated May 1, 2019 and staff
reports dated April 18 and May 9, 2019.

Klima presented the application, which was a redevelopment of an existing site at Prairie
Center Drive and Flying Cloud Drive which included the Broadmoor Apartments, Castle
Ridge Care Center, and some vacant property. An overall PUD was approved in 2008.
The presentation was organized in three parts. The Senior Care Center(at the southwest)
would be seeking full approval, and the other two areas would be seeking PUD concept
approval and be platted as outlots. The commission was being asked for high-level detail
feedback on these two outlots.
The Broadmoor Apartments consisted of 240 all age units, with studios, one-bedroom
and two-bedroom apartments with detached garages. The Castle Ridge Care Center
provided 82 units currently. The 2008 approval was for an overall PUD for 704
residential units (372 senior and 332 general occupancy), commercial development
extended farther up Prairie Center Drive than being requested in the current application,
roadway design, and plaza areas.
The 2019 proposal included 274 senior units and 250 general occupancy, 20,000 square
feet of retail, a 110- or 120-room room hotel,public gathering spaces, and an amended
roadway design. Klima presented a rendering of the proposed structure and side
elevations of the senior housing site (lot one). Access would come from Columbine Road
to the parking area, and there would be outdoor amenities and a landscaping plan. There
would be two proof of parking areas. The development did not comply with the metric of
two stalls per unit, as it is usual for senior developments to seek a parking requirement
waiver. Staff recommended the plan be revised to remove the proof of parking to meet
the landscape requirement. Klima explained the elevation images and the various
entrances.
The phasing plan involved three phases. In 2008 the developer did not have development
partners, as now. Phase one involved the demotion and removal of Broadmoor
Apartments and construction of the senior units. After these units are completed, the
Castle Ridge Car Center tenants would be relocated into the new facility. Phase two
would be construction of the general occupancy residential units. Phase three would
include the construction of the commercial portion. The density was approximately 40
units per acre.
The Multi-Family Area(Outlot A) concept plan consisted of two buildings: a seven-story
and a five-story building connected with a two-story common space, 250 one-bedroom
and two-bedroom rental units and 328 parking spaces, common site elements, site
amenities, group usable open space, and 1.3 parking stalls per unit. With the overall PUD
the City and the developer were looking for a cohesive development rather than three
distinct ones. The density here was approximately 51 units per acre.
The southeastern commercial area(Outlot B) consisted of 20,000 square feet of retail in
the form of single story, drive-through uses, a 110- or 120-room hotel, surface parking,
gathering spaces, and common design elements. The goal was a dynamic mix of uses and
architectural interest to create synergy(such as a grocery store, a medical office building,
sit-down restaurants, etc.).

The Site Design Objectives included human scale interest and sense of place, natural
amenities, pedestrian connectivity, enhanced site design and traffic circulation, with a
parking lot that was intuitive and direct. Staff recommended an exit connected to Prairie
Center Drive and parallel parking be removed to prevent congestion, and the proposed
drop off area needed more detail to ensure the private drive remained clear.
The Castlemoore Drive area had three options recommended by staff: to vacate
Castlemoore entirely, to terminate the Castlemoore roundabout or to leave the site as is
and redesign the site plan. The developer decided to pursue the vacation of Castlemoore
and maintain access to the property south of Presbyterian Homes. Other issues included
the nearby wetland area and the plans would need to be revised to align with the most
recent wetland delineation. Staff recommended the commission continue the public
hearing to May 13 to allow all parties to provide feedback to staff and the applicant.
John Fletcher of Presbyterian Homes presented the PowerPoint and explained the
application. He presented the organization's mission statement and emphasized long-term
ownership was key; this developer was not a market-rate developer. Presbyterian Homes
had been in operation since 1955, and sold only one community since then. The 19.75
acre Castle Ridge Care Center site would be integrate into a master planned community
with third-party partners.
The proposed senior housing of 274 units would provide a continuum of care throughout
life and was the only licensed care center in Eden Prairie. It offered independent living,
assisted living, memory care, and a care center. He summarized the previous and the
changes since then of the proposed plan. The previous plan held over 700 units with large
retail; the current application right-sized the development and shifted the key central
intersection south of Prairie Center Drive and created a more useable five-acre apartment
parcel. Traffic would be encouraged to use Columbine Drive more frequently and the
road south of the CVS would enter the parcel.
Fletcher displayed the basic architectural massing, which would maintain the senior
parcel toward Purgatory Creek and place commercial spaces and all age housing toward
Prairie Center Drive and Columbine Drive. The architecture and design found a balance
between approved recent projects and the development's unique flair with 100 percent
class one materials. He explained the many offered amenities and reiterated the phasing,
sustainability, and affordability.
Ryan Sailer, with Timberland Partners explained his firm agreed to work with
Presbyterian Homes. There was a demand for more units in a project with an exterior and
interior design that did not compete with another similar project down the road. There
were many issues to work out with staff and he was here to take initial feedback.
Evan Jacobsen, of Tushie Montgomery Architects, gave a short presentation and
PowerPoint showing sizes, orientation massing, ingress and egress, lighting, parking

ideas, elevations and a drop-off point and asked for preliminary feedback. Drew Johnson,
of Oppidan Investment Company, presented a PowerPoint and described the process of
becoming involved in this project. He compared the 2008 and 2019 plan in terms of
major themes, reiterating many earlier points and showing less area for retail. He
presented strengths and weaknesses of the 2008 plan and strategies for the 2019 proposal.
Max Musicant, of the Musicant Group, displayed a PowerPoint of the sense of place
intended for this development in the central plaza and the park. He showed nested loops,
which he explained people naturally gravitate toward, for the retail and pedestrian spaces.
He showed the pedestrian pathways which he explained were not typical berms and
drives but accessible pedestrian crossings. He explained the speed of traffic more than the
presence of traffic itself inhibited pedestrian movement, which was an issue since the two
main arterials carried a great number of cars. This shifted the accent to the west of the
development. Pavement, landscaping, and architectural elements would enhance
pedestrian safety. Drew Johnson added the goal was to make application based on the
feedback by summer or fall with no variances and no leniency with regard to the zoning
code.
Iyer asked the square footage of the units, and Fletcher replied senior apartments would
be 800-1,000 square feet, and two-bedroom apartments at 1,200 to 1,800 square feet.
Kent Kelley, of 401 Southeast Main Street of Minneapolis and a former Eden Prairie
resident, explained his sister Ellen Kelley lived in the senior care facility and stated he
was in favor of the Presbyterian Homes portion of the proposal, as he was impressed by
the staff and their care.
Judy Thayer, of 4826 Sparrow Road in Minnetonka, stated her 93-year-old mother lived
in the care center. She found the staff to be caring and love but added the Home was
"yesterday's home," small and dated and needed replacement. She stated her mother
looked forward to the new facility and supported a quick resolution.
Mette asked if the affordable units were confined to the independent living units, and
Fletcher replied it would extend to the skilled nursing facility. Mette asked how that
worked with the payment of rent plus services. Fletcher replied the method was income
restriction rather than rent restriction: the eligible residents would primarily be folks on
Medicaid, with an income at or less than $12,000.00 per year. Mette noted the apartment
building would be short on parking and suggested if Castlemoore Drive were vacated and
made private, that the entire senior development be shifted even five or 10 feet to add
more parking.
DeSanctis noted a key constraint was the heavy traffic in the area and asked if the City
considered a jitney or shuttle stop to encourage a circulatory flow of commerce. Fletcher
replied Presbyterian Homes had a shuttle service between all its communities and
planned something similar to DeSanctis's suggestion.

Farr commended the idea of a Southwest transit loop around the area. He commended the
assemblage of this team and the great job done on the presence of the building and the
phasing. He found the one delivery berth short sighted and recommended two or three, to
accommodate family drop offs and pick-ups, deliveries, pharmacy, emergencies vehicles,
and Uber/Lyft and recommended the developer pay attention to long-term delivery berths
as well. His observation was this while he had no issue with multiple waivers, these
teams were "pushing too hard," specifically on parking, the lack of green space, and on
setbacks. He suggested utilizing multi-story towers to allow for better organized green
space. Kirk stated he remembered when the 2008 proposal came before the City and
stated then the commission was more cautious about height and density back then. Eden
Prairie had since changed, and density required height. He thought the City and certainly
he were far more open to multistoried towers than previously.
Higgins stated she was speaking on the residential portion of the project and had a
concern regarding the movement of cars and people. She thought this development could
use more massing, and multiple levels. She was also concerned that young families in
rental would not have access to Purgatory Park, and grandchildren regularly visited
senior housing. She recommended trails for children to ride small tricycles and bicycles.
Iyer noted there was an architectural trade-off between density and green space and this
had to be examined, especially for the age group being considered. Fletcher replied
developers did wish to create multistoried buildings but also wished to balance cost and
after a height of six floors construction costs went up 40 percent per floor. He noted the
relationship between construction costs and rent prices and the team wished to preserve
affordability.
Mette stated she appreciated the challenges with building higher buildings, and stated the
commission should give credit to the planned outdoor rooftop space memory care garden.
She encouraged more of this as a solution as well in the market rate section.
Villarreal stated he wished instead to place solar panels on the rooftops. He thanked
Fletcher for including EV (electric vehicle) charging in the parking lot and asked if they
were dedicated to the visitors or to the public. Fletcher replied they would be for senior
residents, not the general public, because they would be free of charge.
Farr asked for the trigger for an EAW/EIS (Environmental Assessment
Worksheet/Environmental Impact Statement). Klima replied the initial review was
completed in 2006-2008 and staff consulted with the City Attorney and MN EQB and
determined an EAW was not necessary this time as the project fell within the parameters
of what was considered last time. Farr asked if a traffic study addressed shared parking
ratios. Johnson replied the developer keyed on parking counts. The reduction of density
on the site allowed the main entrance off Prairie Center level of service to be acceptable
for the intersection staying as is. Also the reduction of overall arterial traffic plus a
smaller project made the 2008 findings even stronger. Farr asked if shared parking
between uses could facilitate market users could use the Presbyterian Homes site when
parking there was not as full. Johnson replied the SRF report on traffic was silent on
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
April 22, 2019
Page 6
shared reduction recommendations. Farr recommended the developer SRF provide
strategic recommendations when the application came back to the commission. He also
recommended a taller tower and to open up a town green He stated he liked the
architecture and anticipated the project's greater detail in the application.
Villarreal asked the definition of a three-quarter entrance. Rue stated a typical four-way
intersection one could turn left-right in both directions, whereas here the movement
straight across and the left turn were eliminated, making this not a true three-quarter
entrance. Villarreal asked if there was a reason why there was no entrance from south
Flying Cloud once the driver was past Prairie Center Drive. Rue replied the area was
designed with Columbine and Fountain Place both signalized off the arterials. The
predominant access would be off Columbine, and both that and Fountain Place would
connect at signaled intersections to Prairie Center Drive and Flying Cloud Drive,
respectively. Villarreal stated that forced a driver to make a circle or to make a U-turn,
and more retail could make the situation more difficult to enter the site and asked if an
entrance and exit on Flying Cloud Road could be considered. Rue replied the roadway
was controlled by the county and the spacing requirements might not allow a change or a
full access to be put in. Mette stated the three-quarter intersection would require anyone
looking to take a left onto Prairie Center Drive would be coming up Columbine Road
which usually was backed up in her experience. She anticipated congestion getting worse
and urged that this needed to be mitigated,perhaps with two turn lanes.
Kirk reiterated height, density, and protection of Purgatory Creek were the emphases in
2008, but he saw new needs for today. He commended the team and Presbyterian Homes.
He stated he understood the costs but the commission needed to push for more green
space. Parking and congestion were important issues and mistakes had been made in the
past; he urged creative solutions for this for the future. Higgins urged the developer
consider how deliveries, or when people move in or out, can take time and to plan for
this. Villarreal asked the developer not to be beholden to chain businesses but to try to
develop community retail, and to consider the flow of traffic with these delivery vehicles.
He wished the EV chargers to be better plotted and located. He asked the developer to
consider utilizing solar on the west-facing roofs.
Farr stated he would like to scatter this and call it a mixed use project, which he did not
find it to be. He stated he was drawn toward design guidelines, at the risk of moving
toward a Town Center, which called for mixed use. He called for street-level retail with
residential above. He also wanted to see dynamic pedestrian elements along the red lines
(pedestrian edges) on the "sense of place" slide, and for greater integration with the rest
of the development. He did not see residents in their eighties or older attempting to cross
those intersections, driveways, curb cuts, and drive-through lanes, where presently retail
businesses were planned to be isolated on drive-through islands. Mette agreed, and added
this reminded her of Windsor Plaza which had retail on the first floor which would frame
the main hotel really well with a plaza green space. She conceded this would impact an
already difficult parking plan. She suggested a limit of two drive-through lanes,perhaps

at the northwest side. She commended the plaza but stated it could be incorporated with
mixed use to allow for a framed community feel with a main central plaza. DeSanctis
asked if there could be community garden, and Fletcher replied one was not planned at
this time.

STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Beth Novak-Krebs, Senior Planner
DATE: May 9, 2019
SUBJECT: City Yard Waste Drop Off Site
LOCATION: 9811 Flying Cloud Drive
Maintenance Outdoor Storage Site (M.O.S.S.)
REQUEST: Site Plan Review on 13.84 acres
BACKGROUND
The City of Eden Prairie is requesting approval of a Site Plan to establish a yard waste drop off
area at the Maintenance Outdoor Storage Site
(M.O.S.S.) at 9811 Flying Cloud Drive. The 0
property is 13.84 acres and is located on the east Y 8
side of Flying Cloud Drive approximately 14 south V _.
west of Pioneer T rail across from airport property. .
The site currently includes a 11,700 square foot FIyMp GlaW AJ Port
sand/salt storage canopy building built in 2005 I #
and a 12,884 square foot cold storage (unheated)
equipment building for storage of off season '
equipment built in 2015.
The site is bound by airport property to the north
and west, Allied Waste Services to the south and
•
the former landfill site to the east.
The site is currently used by the City for the
storage of trees and brush, construction material, f'
vehicles and equipment. The proposal includes - J
adding areas for residents to drop off yard waste,
trees and brush. In addition, some of the material 2';
will be composted for reuse by residents. Grass .
clippings will not be accepted. Rather than developing a new location for resident services, the
applicant is adding these services to an existing site. This project allows the public to use the site
similar to the way it is already being used.
The drop off area is proposed to be open when City staff is not using the site for City operations
Staff Report-City Yard Waste Drop Off Site
Page 2
to avoid conflicts. The intent is to open the site for the public during daylight hours. The dates and
times of operation will be further defined by the Public Works Department when the project is
closer to completion and operation.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND ZONING
The site is guided Industrial and it is zoned Industrial - General. The use is permitted in this
zoning district.The proposal does not require changes to either the guiding or zoning.The property
to the north and west is guided Airport and the property to the south and east is guided Industrial.
The property to the west is zoned Public,to the north is zoned Airport Commercial,to the south is
zoned I-2 Industrial and the property to the east is zoned Rural.

driveway to Executive
Aviation on the other side N
of Flying Cloud Drive. The
current driveway will remain as a driveway for emergency use by City vehicles and will remain
gated.
The proposed plan includes a potable booth near the entrance to the drop off area for staff to check-
in residents and assist with directing the resident based on the types of material the resident is
dropping off.. The booth is proposed to be approximately 8' by 12' which does not require a
building permit. The color will match the primary structures on the site. The booth is portable so
the location can change when the operations of the facility are further defined.
Concrete jersey barriers will help direct residents around and through the drop off area. The
2
Staff Report-City Yard Waste Drop Off Site
Page 3
barriers are movable so that there can be modifications to traffic patterns if needed.
The existing stormwater infiltration basin along the south side of the property will be expanded.
There is a berm along Flying Cloud Drive that provides some level of screening of the site. The
applicant is proposing to add
trees and shrubs on the berm
to enhance the screening.
LANDSCAPE PLAN ir
Because no trees will be -
removed for this project, Tree -
Replacement is not required. a ,t a-� -
Because there is no primary
structure being constructed as
a part of this project,
landscaping is not required
for this project; however, the Rendering of Proposed City
applicant is proposing trees ; Yard Waste Drop Off Site from
Flying Cloud Drive
and shrubs on the berm along
Flying Cloud Drive and on the
south side of the drop off area for screening. There are a few larger existing trees along the south
side of the site that will be transplanted along Flying Cloud Drive to provide enhanced screening
and the transplanted trees will be replaced with new trees.
TRAFFIC
The City of Plymouth operates a similar facility. The consultant gathered information from
Plymouth regarding the impact of site layout and traffic levels experienced. At the City of
Plymouth site, one-day special drop off events can cause as much as 3,000 feet of traffic stacking
from the entrance with 1,200 feet of on-site driveway available. The proposed site in Eden Prairie
is designed with a 1,300 foot drop-off loop. Upon entering the site, there is 350 feet of stacking
before the guard booth. To provide additional stacking, the applicant is proposing to add an
extended 600 feet of turn lane on Flying Cloud Drive. The County and the City are working
through the details of the road improvements. Additional traffic control by the Police Department
and others will be provided if needed.
LIGHTING
There will be a street light near the main entrance into the site, there will be security lighting and
security cameras on the guard booth. The site will only be open to the public during daylight hours
so there is not a need for lighting beyond the lighting on the existing buildings and what is being
proposed.
SIGNS
The applicant is proposing a sign near the main entrance. The sign will be designed to match the
3
Staff Report—City Yard Waste Drop Off Site
Page 4
signs at other City facilities and will be code compliant.
SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES
The sustainable features on this site include collecting and composting some of the material for re-
use by the residents, using native plantings. Reducing stormwater discharge rates through
stormwater management.
NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING
The Public Works Department held a neighborhood meeting on April 16, 2019. Invitations were
mailed to 100 residents and 6 aviation businesses at the airport. No one attended the meeting.

REVISIONS FOLLOWING APRIL 22, 2019 MEETING
Castlemoor Drive: The plans have been revised to depict the current Castlemoor Drive right-of way
as an outlot pending the request to vacate the current right of way. The Development Agreement
will include language requiring the developer maintain cross access to the properties to the south and
for the future maintenance of Castlemoor Drive. The vacation action shall be completed prior to the
release of the Final Plat.
Timing of the vacation of Castlemoor Drive must be provided to the City. Depending on the
intentions of the developer for the vacation of the right of way, accommodations for the private
utilities that may be located in the existing right of way that are located within the proposed Outlot B
will need to be addressed,either by maintaining drainage&utility easements(that will likely need to
be vacated upon development of Outlot B) or by relocating the existing utilities.
Access at Prairie Center Drive: The plans submitted include a conceptual plan for a future 3/4
access at Prairie Center Drive. The concept plan shows median striping of Regional Center Drive
and no changes/revisions to the private leg of the intersection(the main access point to the project).
Both of these legs will likely require median additions/changes;these modifications may also require
drainage/storm sewer improvements. The cost estimate for this future must take those future
modifications into account also and should be revised accordingly.An updated cost estimate must be
provided to the Engineering Division prior to the project being presented to the City Council. The
developers agreement will include the requirement to provide security to cover the future costs. The
City Engineer reserves the right to require a conversion to a 3/4 access consistent with
recommendations in the traffic studies as initially identified in the 2007 Traffic Study and again
noted in the 2018 study. The requirement for the construction of these improvements will be
triggered based on monitoring of traffic complaints/accidents at the Prairie Center
Drive/Commonwealth Drive intersection.
Sidewalk along Castlemoor Drive: The sidewalk on the north side of Castlemoor Drive has been
modified to provide an easement for that portion of the sidewalk on Lot 1,Block 1. As the applicant
has chosen to vacate the public right of way for the entirety of Castlemoor Drive, the proposed
sidewalk north of Castlemoor Drive will be privately owned and maintained. Therefore,an easement
for the sidewalk is not necessary and can be eliminated. The sidewalks located on both the north and
south sides of Castlemoor Drive will be privately owned and maintained as the current right-of-way
is proposed for vacation.
The sidewalk has also been extended to from Columbine Road to the centrally located east/west
access drive. Sidewalks located adjacent to parking stalls have been widened to 7 feet in order to
provide 5 feet of clear access with potential for vehicle overhang. The Development Agreement will
include language addressing the private sidewalks,including maintenance,will be the responsibility
of the developer

Drainage and Utility Easements: The preliminary plat has been revised to include drainage and
utility easements to reflect the 2018 wetland and buffer boundaries. The Development Agreement
will include a conservation easement to be provided to cover these areas.
Stormwater Management: The revised plans and stormwater management plans indicate that
stormwater for Outlots A&B (with the exception of the access and parking to be constructed with
Phase 1) will be treated independently of Lot 1. Prior to issuance of a building permit for Lot 1,
sufficient sizing information will be required if the storm sewer piping within Lot 1 will convey any
of the stormwater from Outlots A &B.
Proof of Parking: The proof of parking depicted in the previous plan has been removed in order to
provide for additional permanent landscaped areas.
Grading Plan/Tree Replacement: The grading plan and tree replacement calculations have been
revised to preserve tree nos. 5081, 50814, and 5085. These modifications provide for a tree
replacement calculation of 912 inches. The applicant proposes to meet this requirement through the
payment option provided in City Code. The Development Agreement will address the $114,000
payment.
Parking Lot and Landscaping Calculations: The plans have been revised to include the area and
dimensions provided for the parking lot islands consistent with City Code requirements. The
landscaping plan calculations have been revised to accurately reflect the landscaping provided on
site. Based on the plan, a landscaping waiver of 629.24 inches is requested. The requirement is
1388 caliper inches and 758.76 caliper inches are provided.
Presbyterian Homes and Timberland are exploring the opportunity to shift the site design to
accommodate a redesign to provide additional parking on Outlot A. If plan modifications occur to
support these site changes,there may some impact to the landscaping currently proposed between the
north side of the Senior Housing Facility and the sidewalk. In this event, it would be likely that
shrubs and/or perennials and grasses could be installed but trees would have to be relocated on site or
removed from the plan,which would impact the specific landscaping waiver calculation. This item
should be addressed prior to review by the City Council.
Site Amenities: The plans include specifications for the proposed site amenities such as benches,
bollards, trash receptacles, lighting, pedestrian connection surface materials to be provided
throughout the entire project area(including Outlots A and B). The Development Agreement will
include language addressing the use of these features in all phases of the project area.
The plans have also been revised to reflect comments made by the Planning Commission at the April
22 meeting.

Delivery Areas: Added a delivery vehicle lane to the west side of the site and depicted how the
porte-cochere can accommodate 3 vehicles for delivery/drop-off while allowing for bypass vehicles;
added short term parking stalls adjacent to each entry to encourage frequent parking turnover.
Activation of First Floor & Green Space: Added 10 outdoor benches along sidewalks and
pathways; added an outdoor yoga studio adjacent to the indoor wellness studios; added al fresco

Building Height: The Planning Commission provided comments in support of increased building
heights for the site and the project overall. The developer has provided a response on this issue in
the attached comments.
Shared Parking: Each of the project areas will be analyzed for compliance with City Code parking
requirements as part of each of the respective formal review processes. Due to the complimentary
peak times for commercial and residential uses,the applicant is proposing that the entire project area
will be subject to master declaration and covenants which will include provisions for shared parking
among the 3 project areas in order to address overall and overflow parking.

OVERALL PROJECT AREA
Although the project includes three developers and three different product types,the applicants are
partnering to design a master project that contains cohesive development components. With the
current review process, only the Presbyterian Homes component of the project is seeking full
approvals. The multi-family and commercial elements are seeking PUD Concept Review only at this
time and would come forward with requests for approval of final development proposals at a future
5
Staff Report—Castle Ridge Redevelopment

date. Following is a description of each component:
• Presbyterian Homes is proposing the construction of a senior housing facility. The 5 story
building includes underground parking and 274 units of senior housing units providing a
range of care including independent living, assisted living, memory care and care center
units. The density calculated for this lot only is 40 units per acre.
• Timberland is proposing approximately 250 units of multi-family housing. These housing
units are proposed to be general occupancy rental units(not age restricted). The concept plan
includes two buildings with a connected common space. The north building is proposed at 7
stories and the south building is proposed at 5 stories. This element of the project also
proposes use of underground parking totaling approximately 275 parking stalls and surface
parking of 53 stalls. Unit types range from studio units, 1 BR, 1 BR+Den,2 BR,2 BR+,and
2 BR+Den. The density calculated for this lot only is approximately 51 units per acre based
on this concept plan. The residential density for the overall residential project area when
including both the Timberland and Presbyterian Homes sites is approximately 44.8 units per
acre.
• Oppidan is proposing retail/commercial development at the corner of Flying Cloud Drive and
Prairie Center Drive. The concept plan for this portion of the project includes a hotel with
approximately 110 rooms and 20,000 square feet of retail space. This area of the project
includes surface parking only.
PRESBYTERIAN HOMES SITE
The existing condition of the site provides for 322 units over the total 19 acre site, providing a
density of 16.5 units per acre. The Broadmoor property currently includes 240 units consisting of
studios; 1-bedrooms;and 2-bedroom units. The Broadmoor Apartments are not specifically limited
to senior residents. Castle Ridge Care Center provides 82 units. Also, the current site includes
detached garages and surface parking stalls for the residents.
With the redevelopment proposal, the applicant is requesting PUD approval for the entire site and
site plan approval for the construction of a 5-story building for senior housing on proposed Lot 1.
The proposed density for the Presbyterian Homes site is 40 units per acre. The total unit count
proposed is 274. The proposed building includes 148 independent living units; 40 assisted living
units; 18 memory care units; and 68 care center units (4 of these units are double occupancy for a
total of 72 care center beds). The redevelopment proposal intensifies the senior housing component
of the project onto a smaller area leaving the two outlot areas for further redevelopment that will be
discussed later in this memo.
SITE PLAN AND PRELIMINARY PLAT
The redeveloped Presbyterian Homes senior housing facility is proposed to be located along
Columbine Road and Castlemoor Drive. The site layout would provide multiple access points from
6
Staff Report—Castle Ridge Redevelopment
May 9, 2019
Page 7
the public streets and an interior private drive serving the overall project area. Parking, landscaped
areas, and recreational areas are proposed adjacent to the building. The site is proposed to have
sidewalks and walking paths with a connection to the public trail that connects to Purgatory Creek
Park. The site plan proposes pedestrian connections that would link this portion of the project area
to the commercial and multi-family outlots creating opportunity for through pedestrian movements
from the trails along Flying Cloud Drive and Prairie Center Drive to and through the overall site and
the individual site areas.
Proposed site amenities include enhanced materials for pedestrian connections throughout the total
PUD project area. These pedestrian connections shall provide an alternative material, color and
pattern in order to differentiate these areas as pedestrian connections and create an inviting
environment promoting pedestrian circulation. The development will also provide consistent use of
other site amenities such as street lighting fixtures, bollard lighting at the pedestrian level, street
furniture including but not limited to,benches,bike racks,and trash receptacles. The Development
Agreement for the PUD and approvals for the Presbyterian Homes site would include language
requiring that consistency in such site amenities be provided in all phases of the project.
The Presbyterian Homes site includes internal pedestrian connections adjacent to the senior housing
facility;to Columbine Road;Castlemoor Drive and to the proposed outlots. The development plans
for the outlots should build upon these pedestrian connections to provide pedestrian circulation
opportunities throughout the overall PUD and to the pedestrian areas on the perimeter of the overall
PUD.
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT WAIVERS
The purpose of a Planned Unit Development(PUD) as stated in the 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 a part of the PUD process, the applicant is seeking waivers to City Code requirements for
proposed Lot 1 as outlined below.
1. Density from 17.4 units per acre to 40 units per acre
The RM2.5 zoning district allows 17.4 dwelling units per acre. This project proposes a total
of 274 units on 6.84 acres for a total of 40 units per acre.
2. Gross Site Area from 2,500 square feet per unit to 1087 square feet per unit
City Code requires the total area of proposed Lot 1 to be 2,500 square feet per unit or
685,000 square feet. The site is 6.84 acres or 297,950 square feet.
7
Staff Report—Castle Ridge Redevelopment
May 9, 2019
Page 8
3. Building height from 45 feet to 68 feet at its highest point.
The Presbyterian Homes building is 5 stories. The building has rooflines ranging from
approximately 57 feet to 68 feet. This variety in rooflines meets City Code requirements for
building architecture and creates additional interest and structural character.
4. Parking Setback along Castlemoor Drive from 35 feet to 15.4 feet.
Castlemoor Drive is a public street therefore parking must comply with the front yard
setback of 35 feet. The plan as proposed does not comply with the setback unless
Castlemoor Drive is vacated, as proposed by the developer. In that case, this will become a
side yard which requires a parking setback of 10 feet. The proposed setback of 15.4 feet
would then comply with the requirement and this waiver would not be unnecessary.
5. Building Setback along Castlemoor Drive from 35 feet to 29.8 feet
As a public right-of-way, Castlemoor Drive is a front yard requiring a setback of 35 feet. The
plan as proposed does not comply with the setback unless Castlemoor is vacated as
proposed by the developer. In that case, this would become a side lot line requiring a 25 foot
setback. The proposed setback of 29.8 feet would comply with this requirement and this
waiver would not be necessary.
6. Group Usable Open Space from 600 square feet per unit to 172.7 square feet per unit.
The proposed project includes indoor and outdoor spaces suitable for people to recreate and
socialize. The indoor spaces include areas such as community rooms, a fitness center, a
library, a sitting room, a sunroom, and craft rooms. The outdoor spaces include terraces
(including rooftop terraces) that include amenities as noted in the narrative. The project
provides a variety of opportunities for residents of varying abilities and mobility levels to
recreate and socialize.
7. Parking from 548 parking stalls 296 parking stalls
There are 146 underground parking spaces and 150 surface parking spaces proposed on
the site plan. City Code requires 2 parking spaces per unit. The proposal provides for
1.08 parking stalls per unit. If the care center and memory care units are deducted from
that calculation since those residents are not driving, the parking ratio is then 1.57 stalls
per unit. Other senior facilities with similar services have received waivers to the
parking requirements due to the unique nature of these facilities and impact on residents
vehicular needs. This waiver does not include the proof-of-parking stalls shown on the
plans, as staff is recommending removal of the proof-of-parking since the locations and
installation of landscaping in these areas is not consistent with City Code requirements.
8. Covered Parking from 274 parking stalls to 146 parking stalls.
City Code requires 2 parking stalls per unit with at least one of the stalls (50%of the
stalls) being covered. The proposed underground parking garage includes 146 parking
8
Staff Report—Castle Ridge Redevelopment
May 9, 2019
Page 9
stalls. Of the 296 parking stalls provided, 146 are proposed to be covered which equates
to 49.3%of the provided stalls.
9. Landscaping from 1388 caliper inches to 629.24 caliper inches
The plan currently provides for 691.76 caliper inches. However, there are additional areas,
such as landscape beds and planting containers that have not been included in the overall
calculation. The landscaping plan provides a robust variety of plant materials that provide
color and interest. The amount of landscaping provided on site is appropriate and sustainable
over the long term. The additional information as requested in this memo shall be provided
in order to accurately calculate the requested waiver.
10. Off-site parking
The plan proposes parking along the east side of the center drive that connects Prairie
Center Drive to Castlemoor Drive. These parking stalls are located on proposed Outlot B
and are not counted in the 150 parking stalls being provided toward the Lot 1 parking.
These stalls are proposed to be constructed as a part of Phase I construction but will
ultimately serve the development that will be constructed on Outlot B and will be counted as
part of the parking requirement for that area. The shared access agreement for the PUD
will address this parking.
11. Park Dedication Payment
The developer has requested that park dedication fees be waived for the Presbyterian Homes
units. Staff does not support this waiver request with the exception of the 14 units to be
provided at or below 30%AMI.
PUD CONCEPT REVIEW—MULTIFAMILY AREA (OUTLOT A)
At its April 22,2019 meeting the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed concept plan which
includes approximately 250 dwelling units for a density of approximately 51 units per acre. These
housing units are proposed to be general occupancy rental units (not age restricted). The concept
plan includes two building of multi-family units with a connected common space. The north
building is proposed at 7 stories and the south building is proposed at 5 stories. This element of the
project also proposes use of underground parking totaling approximately 275 parking stalls and
surface parking of 53 stalls. Unit types range from studio units, 1 BR, 1 BR+Den,2 BR,2 BR+,and
2 BR+Den. The proposed plan provides for structured parking under the building and some surface
parking stalls
Through the formal review process, the developer will be required to provide specific site details
including building materials, architecture, landscaping, lighting, and site amenities to review for
compliance with City Code requirements and Design Guidelines. As discussed in other portions of
this memo,site amenities should be coordinated throughout the overall PUD project areas to create a
connected and cohesive development.

Staff Report—Castle Ridge Redevelopment
May 9, 2019
Page 10
Staff has compiled the comments prepared by staff in the April 18 staff report and has included the
comments provided by the Planning Commission at its April 22 meeting as items that should be
addressed with the PUD and Site Plan applications for Outlot A. If there are items that the Planning
Commission wishes to add or items that should be modified from this list,the Planning Commission
should direct staff to update the comments to reflect those changes in order to provide the City
Council with an inclusive list of comments.
Based on staff review comments and Planning Commission review comments,staff recommends that
prior to the submittal of a land development for PUD and site plan review that the development plan
for Outlot A be modified to include the following:
1. Increase the amount of parking provided and provide any additional information regarding
the projected parking need based on the specifics of the proposed project;
2. Create additional green areas;
3. Activate the usable open spaces on the site;
4. Identify locations and sizes of group usable open space for the residents and provide access
to these areas for all residents;
5. Eliminate the angled parking spaces proposed at intersection with Prairie Center Drive near
the 2 story entrance;
6. Provide pedestrian connections to Columbine Road/Purgatory Creek Park area and
throughout the entire project area for a continuous pedestrian path.
7. Additional information should be provided regarding delivery and move in/move out areas.
Consideration should be provided to ensure that these areas do not contribute to conflicts
with circulation and access to parking areas.
8. Address provisions for EV charging spaces.
PUD CONCEPT REVIEW—COMMERCIAL AREA (OUTLOT B)
At its April 22, 2019 meeting, the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed concept plan that
includes approximately 20,000 square feet of single level retail space and a 110-room hotel. The
2008 approved plan did include commercial development (restaurant and retail uses) as a ground
level use with residential units above. The 2008 plan also included plaza type areas to provide
gathering spaces for residents while creating sense of place within the project area.
Through the formal review process, the developer will be required to provide specific site details
including building materials, architecture, landscaping, lighting, and site amenities to review for
compliance with City Code requirements and Design Guidelines. As discussed in other portions of
this memo,site amenities should be coordinated throughout the overall PUD project areas to create a
connected and cohesive development.

Staff has compiled the comments prepared by staff in the April 18 staff report and has included the
comments provided by the Planning Commission at its April 22 meeting as items that should be
addressed with the PUD and Site Plan applications for Outlot B. If there are items that the Planning
Commission wishes to add or items that should be modified from this list,the Planning Commission
should direct staff to update the comments to reflect those changes in order to provide the City
Council with an inclusive list of comments.
Based on staff review comments and Planning Commission review comments,staff recommends that
prior to the submittal of a land development for PUD and site plan review that the development plan
for Outlot B be modified to include the following:
1. Include building types that provide for additional height to frame the site, particularly
adjacent to Flying Cloud Drive and Prairie Center Drive;
2. Limit the number of drive-through uses to 2 and locate those on the northern portion of the
project area.
3. Create additional green areas that provide connection to the plaza/gathering spaces on site.
4. Activate the usable open spaces on the site.
5. Eliminate the exit from drive-through that is currently shown onto main driveway to Prairie
Center Drive.
6. Provide pedestrian connections throughout the entire project area for a continuous pedestrian
path that minimize pedestrian/vehicular conflicts.
7. Site design should promote pedestrian connections and visual corridors to contribute toward
creation of a sense of place within the project area and capitalize on the natural features and
nearby park area.
8. Provide for a mix of uses such as medical office,retail,grocery,restaurant uses without drive
through uses that promote a variety of architecture, commercial opportunities for nearby
residents, and provide complimentary peak times allowing for flexibility of shared parking
opportunities.
9. Traffic circulation and delivery areas should be designed in such a way that provides for
direct and intuitive routes to facilitate movement and safety. The sidewalks that are shown
have direct conflicts with the drive-through aisles creating safety issues. The plan should be
revised to reduce pedestrian/vehicle conflicts.
10. Address provisions for EV charging spaces.

Re: Castle Ridge Redevelopment
Dear Members of the City Council, Planning Commission and City Staff:
We represent the owners of Fountain Place,the retail development located adjacent to the
proposed Castle Ridge redevelopment site. Fountain Place is circled in blue on the attached site
map. We understand that the proposed Castle Ridge project will be coming before the Planning
Commission again on Monday, May 13th for review.
We are excited about the Castle Ridge redevelopment; however,we are concerned that certain
aspects of the project may negatively affect Fountain Place. For instance:
1. Road Impacts
a. We understand that the developer of Castle Ridge is requesting that the City vacate
the east portion of Castlemoor Drive. If this occurs, Fountain Place would no longer
have access to and from Prairie Center Drive. This will negatively impact customer
and semi-truck delivery access to Fountain Place. Fountain Place was developed
with a'one-way'truck path. Delivery trucks enter from Columbine and exit onto
Castlemoor and we need this access to continue. We oppose any negative impact on
our access to and from Prairie Center Drive over Castlemoor Drive.
b. We understand that the Castle Ridge developer is proposing a roundabout located at
the Fountain Place curbcut to Castlemoor. We oppose such a roundabout. A
roundabout will prevent trucks from efficiently accessing Fountain Place.
I1732099v2
CUSHMAN &
III 1 WAKEFIELD
c. The staff report indicates that the developer needs to offer Fountain Place
ingress/egress to Columbine and Prairie Center Drive. We currently have access to
these roads over other public roads and oppose any privitazation of these roads that
may cause us to incur liability for maintenance and other costs.
2. It is our understanding that neither the redevelopment plan nor the plan for Castlemoor
Drive will necessitate any changes to the Fountain Place property. Fountain Place is
opposed to any changes to its property.
3. We request that maintenance of the lot located on the corner of Prairie Center Drive and
Flying Cloud Drive be addressed. Specifically,we request that the trees be cut down and
that the vacant site be appropriately maintained until it is developed. The current
condition of the lot significantly affects the visibility of Fountain Place and has been
problematic,and an eyesore, for quite some time.
Thank you for your consideration of our requests and please do not hesitate to contact me if you
have any questions.
incerely,
