Steve Russell noted that the parking requirements are based on square footage as stated in the zoning ordinance. Richard Kilty, 118 West Oak, questioned why the entrance would be on Water and Chestnut Streets. Mr. Hubbs stated that this originally was the main entrance. Mr. Kilty felt that this will create a traffic problem. Rob Hamlin questioned the difference in coloration between the new and old sections. Ann Pung-Terwedo explained that Secretary of Interior Standards for Rehabilitation require the historic building to be clearly separate from the new portion.

Comprehensive Plan Update Ann Pung-Terwedo reviewed the Comprehensive Plan task force meetings. Steve Russell reviewed the request which the Ward Network presented at the last City Council meeting. The Commission agreed that delaying the Comprehensive Plan update for 6 months or more is not reasonable, and felt that a 2-month delay would be adequate. Ann asked that the Commission review the information from all four workshops, the ward network, and related goals and policies. Adjournment Motion by Kirk Roetman, seconded by Darwin Wald to adjourn the meeting at 9:40 p.m. Carried. Submitted by: Shelly Schaubach Recording Secretary 4 PLANNING APPLICATION REVIEW Case No. SUP/94-42 Planning Commission Date: August 8, 1994 Project Location: 1826 Northwestern Avenue Zoning District: BP-0 Commercial Applicant's Name: River Valley Athletic Limited Partnership Type of Application: Special Use Permit Project_Descri tp ion The request is for a special use permit to construct a two level 7072 square foot addition to an existing 26,802 square foot recreation facility. Discussion The new use include, on the first level, a relocated reception area, pro shop, child exercise area, tanning beds, retail sales, kitchen and food storage area and on the second level, expanded workout area totaling 7072 square feet on the two levels.. The expansion intrudes into the front parking lot reducing the number of spaces by 12. The expanded use area is estimated to require an additional 25 spaces for a total required parking number of 110 for the entire facility. Seventy of the 110 spaces are provided on the athletic club site with the remaining spaces shared with the adjacent River Valley Professional Building use. A driveway access is being provided to connect the two parking area. This shared parking should work well based on the nature of the two uses and different peek parking demand times. The owners of the athletic club have permission based on a parking easement agreement to use the adjacent parking for their activities. There are 60 spaces in the medical arts parking lot. The parking ordinance allows for a shared parking approach when the parking use is compatible. Peek demand for the recreation facility is after 4 p.m. on weekdays which is compatible with the medical use. Recommendation Approval Conditions of Approval 1. A parking easement agreement shall be entered into between the owner of the athletic club and medical professional building for the provision of required parking as approved by the city attorney and community development director before the building permits are issued for the addition. 2. The drainage plans shall be reviewed and approved by the city engineer. The driveway in front of the building shall be one way to the south with marking and signage.

Due to schedule conflicts, we are unable to have a representative at the August 8,1994 Stillwater Planning Commission Meeting. As Administrator for River Valley Professionals Partnership, owner of the adjacent medical office (Stillwater Medical Arts Building), we are supportive of the Special Use Permit under request to the City of Stillwater Planning Commission. We believe the long-standing good relationship between these adjacent properties and businesses has been successful in joint cooperation. We also believe that, by permitting joint use of existing parking space, both properties can most effectively utilize the existing developed parking resources to maintain an attractive look to the City of Stillwater and neighboring businesses. The parking lot currently developed at the Stillwater Medical Arts Building is sufficient to support the needs of both business properties. With different service hours for each business, this cooperative parking effort enhances the ability of these organizations to provide a maximum lawn size for the beauty of the community, as well as a large pervious soil area for the environment. It is our hope that the Planning Commission will recommend approval of this Special Use Permit to the City Council. Thank you for consideration of our endorsement of this request.

July 22, 1994 Stillwater Planning Commission / City Council City Hall 216 North Fourth Street Stillwater, Minnesota 55082 Dear Sirs; This letter is written to ask for a variance to allow the installation of a small business dentification sign at the residence of James and Zantha Cummings, 303 North Fourth St.. James Cummings is operating a scholarly book sales outlet out of his residence and needs some kind of identification for his business. The sign will be small in size and will reflect the architecture of the area. The proposed sign will be a single faced non -illuminated project. The frame will be constructed of wood and painted to match the house. The sign blank is a molded polyurethane oval painted to match the colors of the house and lettered with a type face to match Mr. Cummings business card. The sign will be installed just to the north of their driveway on their property. The sign will be very unobtrusive and will fit in well with the neighborhood. We believe a variance should be given because there are other signs in the area allready and this sign will be as unobtrusive or less than these. The absence of a sign will greatly affect the ability of Mr. Cummings to attract sales, and to direct current clients to his business. We ask then that a variance be given in this case.

Discussion The site is located in the Brick Pond planning area behind the Auto Service Center and east of the Eastridge Housing Project. The 7.6 acre site is zoned RB, Duplex Residential. The gross land owned by the property owner, The Augustine Brothers, was 9.73 acres before road and drainage improvements were installed. Based on the gross land area the proposed density is substantially compatible with the zoning. The review before the planning commission is concept approval of the planned unit development request. If the project is conceptually approved by the city council, the developer will come back to the commission and council with detailed project information as listed in the conditions of approval. The proposal is for 65 apartments, 1 - efficiency apartment, 26 - one bedroom, 26 - two bedroom and 12 - three bedroom. One hundred and fifty-nine parking spaces are provided, 65 covered in a basement garage and 92 provided in the front parking lot. The parking provided satisfies the parking requirement for the project. The project design is a three -level, single building development housing 65 apartments (one store will be removed from the concept). The maximum height in the RB district is 2-1/2 stories and 35 feet. From the plans, it is not possible to determine the building height although the site plan indicate a 3-level structure.

The site plan shows access from the north off of Shelton Drive (61 st). The north elevation is shown on the plans submitted. No site survey, elevations, tree locations, drainage, grading detailed landscaping, lighting plans have been submitted with this application. These additional plans will need to be submitted before final approval of the project by the planning commission and council. MLJ This review is of the apartment development concept in the duplex residential location. The site is located in a transition zone with commercial use on the south and single-family use to the north. More detail plans will have to be submitted before final approval. Findings The residential use is consistent with the residential zoning designation. The apartment design is consistent with the transitional location of the project. Recommendatiog Approval of concept Conditions of Approval A detailed drainage and grading plan with on -site, run-off detention shall be submitted as a part of final PUD approval. 2. A detailed landscape plan shall be submitted as a part of final PUD approval. Detailed elevations shall be submitted showing all building elevations, building materials, colors and utility areas. 4.

Russell Community Development Director City of Stillwater City Hall 216 North Fourth Street Stillwater, Minnesota 55082 Dear Mr. Russell: Enclosed please find the application form, with its attachments, for a Conditional Use Permit for the property located at the corner of Tuenge Drive and Sixty First Street North. The parcel of land stated above has been awned by the Augustine brothers for many years. Schaefer Development has purchased this land with the intention of constructing a 65 unit apartment building. The parcel is presently zoned multi -family, with a ratio of eight units per acre, allowing for 61.9 units. Before the City extended the right -of ---way for Sixty First Street North through the Augustine property, this parcel contained a total of 9.73 acres. Under present zoning guide lines, this parcel could contain 77.84 units. It is because of the loss and detachment of approximately 2.13 acres, that Schaefer Development is requesting the Planning Commission of the City of Stillwater, to grant a conditional use permit; for the purpose of adding 3.10 units to complete the apartment building as designed. It is this company's feeling that the proposed project will not only enhance the neighborhood, but also act as a buffer for the single family and town homes from the commercial which lies to the south of the development.

Discussion The request is to build a home on a substandard Iot. Presently, there is a home on the site which has been devastated by fire. The plan is to tear down the home and construct a small rambler as shown on the attached building elevation plans. The Iot is only 43 feet wide, which limits the style and type of home which could be placed on the site. The main access to the home will be from Sherburne Street with garage access from Ramsey Street. The garage will be a one car garage. There is enough space (12 feet) to also park a car in the driveway. An existing detached garage will have to removed as part of this plan. The home will be constructed directly into the hillside which is appropriate on this site. In order to provide a reasonable size structure for a home, variances are needed to both setbacks. The length of the lot can accommodate this home. The neighboring home to the north is 10' 8" from the new structure. Due to this distance, additional building code requirements may apply. Findings The granting of this variance is necessary for the reasonable use of the land, and the granting of this variance will be in harmony with the general purpose of the ordinance. Recommendation Approval as conditioned. Conditions of Il rova 1) A new 3 /4 inch water line shall be installed to the property. 2) The existing detached garage shall be removed. 3) Landseaping shall consist of two deciduous trees in the front yard along with various evergreen shrubs surrounding the Ramsey and Sherburne Street faces.

Kriesel /--._ RE: Application of Susan Doerr to Construct New Home at 124 S. Sherburne St. DATE: July 26, 1994 I have been assisting Susan Doerr in her attempt to construct a new home at 124 S . Sherburne Street. As you know, Ms. Doerr's house was destroyed by a tragic fire (she also lost her son) in April 1994. Ms. Doerr wishes to construct a single story rambler style home on the site. The site is a 43 ft by 165 ft lot, or 7095 sq. ft. Therefore, a 405 sq. ft. lot size variance will be required. In addition to the lot size variance, a side yard variance of 5 ft. will be needed for the side adjacent to the adjoining lot and an 18 ft. street side setback variance (this is the existing setback) will be required. The proposed house will be 26 ft. wide. The old house is 31 ft. wide and is only 5' 8" from the neighboring house. The new house would be 10' 8" from the neighboring house. A standard 30 foot setback will be met (the old house presently has a 22 1/2 ft. setback and neighboring houses have a 30 ft. setback). Please let me know if you require any additional information or explanation. nJ6- 5 A/d c id Sc,4 L� 600' bi QC wQ N o -rF ft 3 a �N Ic- NoT� # j - EXlSTiN6- Dt�IR MC BETu� �%kJ 8���-►0 C--s l 5 5-' E11(E)(IST,AJIr 4IoUSE i5 3 i wioc'� N07e k XkSr/lJ6- SIDE '(PtRD S 1�� ( EX+S �'�►J6, 1ADOsE f S 3 It C.)10 ) 1 NoT 3 - Kos r 1N6- rg-oN r VP(ZO —� ''� Eaaru�u�n wlr wIw all l Design rl ,i ,Arlo 42' • 0' Living Area DINE Ili STORAGE • Main Level 1,092 Sq.

U Describe Ward Network ( 1st paragraph 6/30194 agenda): "Stillwater Ward Network is a group of concerned citizens from each of Stillwater's four Wards who want to create an effective process for broader citizen involvement in decisions concerning Stillwater's future. . . . to organize and facilitate neighborhood meetings that would allow for citizen input in determining the vision, goals, and future plan for the Stillwater community." ® AND . . . purpose of the gathering this evening 1.) to meet neighbors and listen to individual concerns 2.) to begin process of public involvement 11.

Timeline & MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council FR: Steve Russell, Community Development Director DA: July 15, 1994 RE: REVISED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WORK PROGRAM SCHEDULE AND BUDGET Since the last council meeting of July 5, 1994, planning staff has met twice with the ward network as directed by the council to discuss methods of including ward input into the comprehensive planning process. From the meetings a couple of observations can be made. There is a corp of Stillwater residents who are willing to contribute their scarce time to try to improve communication between city government and its residents. In order to successfully organize a ward network much volunteer time and effort will be necessary. The primary purpose of the and network is education, communication and community involvement in city actions that effect the residents. If the ward network is successful, it could provide the city with an organized sounding board for neighborhood decision. From the two meetings the following time line was developed: TIMELINE FOR WARD INPUT TO COMP PLAN Month Task July 1994 Plan ward meetings (including time and place. Promote the meetings and prepare materials. Begin ward meetings by end of month Gather information and begin planning vision workshop. August/September Continue ward neighborhood meetings. Compile results. Meet with planning commission Plan vision workshop October Prepare copies of ward feedback form all neighborhood meetings. Promote community vision workshop Develop materials and do final planning for vision workshop Hold vision workshop (end of month). November Ward representatives meet with planning commission to revise/update comp plan alternatives that reflect ward input. Public meetings to review revised plan alternatives. The proposed timeline would provide for two rounds of individual ward meetings, one in July/August and one in September and one community wide "vision workshop". With the results of the vision workshop in October, the special ward meeting and input would be incorporated into the original comprehensive plan update work program. During November there would be a meeting held by the planning commission on the results from the ward input. In December, the planning commission would make a recommendation to the city council. The council would then set a public hearing on the amended comprehensive plan for early 1995. After city approval of the plan it would be presented to the metropolitan council for their review and approval. The ward network is requesting $1,000 of money to help with publicizing the ward meetings and for room reservations. It is also suggested that each ward appoint a person to attend planning commission meetings to help in the transfer of information and input on the comprehensive plan between the planning commission and wards. Actions before the Council: Revise work program resulting in extending the process to January 1995. 2. Authorizing $1,000 to support ward meeting costs. Authorize ward representatives on planning commission regarding the comprehensive plan discussion item. Attachment.
