RE: Oak Park Heights - Stillwater Ford - Rezoning/CUP
FILE NO: 798,02 - 95.21
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Mr. Dennis Hecker, Stillwater Ford-Lincoln-Mercury, is requesting a rezoning of property
containing the existing Stillwater Ford and adjacent undeveloped property, from 0-Open
Space to B-2 General Business, in order to expand the outdoor parking/sales and service
area. The subject property was part of land annexed in March of 1991. AU of the land
within the annexation area is held in an "0", Open Space Conservation zoning
classification, until which time appropriate zoning is requested.
Additionally, the applicant is requesting a conditional use permit to allow open and outdoor
service and sales as an accessory use. The applicant has recently purchased the subject
property, which is located south of Highway 36 and west of Noreil Avenue.

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
rezoning
In consideration of the rezoning, a determination must be made in regard to the
acceptability of the proposed land use. As mentioned previously, the applicant has
pp
requested a rezoning of the property from 0 --Open Space to B-2 General Business.
Rezoning Evaluation criteria: Section 401.16 A. 5 of the Zoning Ordinance directs the
city Council to consider the possible adverse effects of the proposed amendment. its
judgements must be based upon (but not limited to) the following factors:
1. Relationship to the municipal comprehensive plan.
2. The geographical area involved.
612 595 9837 P.e3/04
3. Whether such use will tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is
proposed.
The character of the surrounding area.
5. The demonstrated need for such use.
Cora rehen ive Plan: The existing land use plan, as contained within the
Comprehensive Plan designates the subject site for commercial uses. The site is
located within Planning District #17, which also designates the subject property for
commercial uses.
Compatibility: The Zoning Ordinance stipulates that the proposed use should be
compatible with present and future land uses and the character of the area In
determining the acceptability of the proposed zoning amendment, it is beneficial to
examine surrounding land uses. The fol cowing is a listing of uses and zoning
designations which surround the subject site:
Direction Use
North Commercial -north side
of Highway 36

Zoning
Commercial (StiUwater)
South Agriculture /Undeveloped 0 - Open Space
East Stillwater Ford B-2 - General Business
West Stillwater Motors (Township) Commercial (Township)
1
ti DVD ‘JI:5„5Y P,o4/oe
As indicated above, the surrounding land uses include commercial and open space,
therefore, the proposed rezoning of the property to B-2 is considered consistent
with the surrounding land uses.
Area Depreciation: An expansion of commercial use in this area would not
negatively effect property values in the area.
Conditional Use Permit
lialuatigighterku The purpose of a conditional use permit is to provide the City of Oak
Park Heights with a reasonable degree of discretion in determining the suitability of certain
designated uses upon the general welfare, public health and safety. In making this
determination, whether or not the conditional use is to be allowed the City may consider
the nature of the adjoining land or buildings, whether or not a similar use is already in
existence and located on the same premises or on other lands immediately close by the
effect upon traffic into and from the premises, or any adjoining roads, and all such other
or further factors as the City may deem a prerequisite of consideration in determining the
effect of such use on the general welfare, public health and safety.
As mentioned above, the proposed use is an expansion of the Stillwater Ford car
dealership. Adjacent uses are compatible, including another car dealership to the west.
Section 401.11. D.6. of the Oak Park Heights zoning ordinance states that open or outdoor
service, sale and rental as an accessory use is a conditionally permitted use within the B-
2, General Business zoning district provided the following:
Outside service, sales and equipment rental connected with the principal use
is limited to thirty (30) percent of the gross floor area of the principal use
This provision of the ordinance is not pertinent to outdoor car sales lots. It is
intended to regulate outdoor sales of a much more limited capacity adjacent to retail
sales operations with a majority of their inventory within the enclosed structure.
2 Outside sales areas are fenced or screened from view of neighboring
residential uses or an abutting residential district in compliance with Section
401.03.B.7 of the Oak Park Heights zoning ordinance.
There are no residential uses existing or anticipated to abut this use, therefore,
additional screening or fencing is not necessary. The parking lot shall be required
to have at least a five foot setback area from the property lines that will be
landscaped,

CONCLUS1ON/RECOMMENDATION
Maximum Area Max. flat
150 square feet in area
or 15% of the building
facade - whichever is less
1 Freestanding Sign allowed
150 square feet in area
or 15% of the building
facade - whichever is less
1 Wall Sign allowed
30 feet tall
May not exceed the
the height of the parapet
wall or eEtve.
All proposed signage should meet the above requirements. If the applicant's signage
proposal exceeds any of the above requirements, then a •variance must be requested,
however, as with all variance requests, there are no guarantees of approval.
Based on the information within this report, a rezoning of the property to B-2 is consistent
with the Oak Park Heights Comprehensive Plan, therefore, our office recommends
approval of the rezoning request. Further, our office recommends approval of the
proposed conditional use pemiit to expand the outdoor parking/safes area as an accessory
use subject to the following conditions:
1. The subject properties, owned by the applicant, must be combined in order for the
proposed outdoor parking/sales area and the existing Stillwater Ford business to
be located on the same parcel of record. The applicant shall provide copies of the
recorded documents to the City upon completion.
2. Upon MnDOT's determination of the specific location of the 60th Street
realignment, the applicant must submit an application for a subdivision to set aside
right-of-way and create specific parcels. Park dedication for the entire parcel would
be required at that time.
3 The relocated proposed parking/sales lot must maintain, at minimum, a five foot
setback from all property lines. This parking area must have a perimeter curb
barrier around the entire lot.
4. The applicant shall submit a detailed landscape plan showing all existing and
proposed landscaping, including all proposed grass, plantings or surfacing material
provided in areas bordering the proposed parking/sales area. Said landscape plan
shall be submitted to the City and approved by the City Council before issuance of
the signed conditional use permit.
5. The proposed lighting plan is subject to review and a ��rova
pp of the City Engineer.
B. The proposed grading and drainage plan is subject to review
subject and approval of the
City Engineer and the Browns Creek watershed District
7 The applicant shall submit a detailed signage plan, including all existing and
proposed wall signs and freestanding signs.
8. Comments from other City Staff.

PLANNING REPORT

FROM: • Scott Richards
DATE: October 2, 2001
RE: Oak Park Heights — Stillwater Ford: Amended Conditional Use
Permit and Lighting Variance
FILE NO: 798.02 — 01.09
BACKGROUND
5775 Wayzata Boulevard, Suite 555, St. Louis Park, MN 55416
Telephone:-952.595.9636 Facsimile:952.595.9837 planners@nacplanning.com
Goldridge Group, representing Stillwater Ford Lincoln Mercury has requested an
amended conditional use permit and variance to address lighting issues at the Stillwater
Ford dealership at 12969 North 60 Stre The dealership was granted a conditional
use permit and site plan at the October 26, 1999 City Council meeting. A conditional
use permit was also approved on November 23, 1999 by the City Council for the
expansion of the major auto repair use for Stillwater Ford.
The request is to allow for the light fixtures adjacent to Neat Avenue to remain as
installed through the issuance of a amended conditional use permit and variance. Light
fixtures on Neal Avenue were not installed with a ten foot setback. Additionally, fixtures
on site exceed the maximum height requirements of the ordinance and the conditional
use permit approval conditions.

Stillwater Ford Dealership — Site Plan

Proposed Lighting — Fixtures and Photometric
HISVAlliktiTS,„
ANAL'Y'SIS
Fixture Setback; Section 401.15.13.7. Outdoor Lighting indicates that "the light source .
of an outdoor light fixture shall be setback a minimum of ten (10) feet from a street right -
of -way and five (6) feet from an interior side or rear lot line ". Fixtures on Neal Avenue
have been found not to be compliant with this requirement. The approved conditional
use permit includes a condition `that all outdoor lighting along the site perimeter is
located not less than ten (10) feet from the street right -of -way or five (5) feet from an
internal or rear lot line." An amended conditional use permit is required to vary from the
approval conditions and a variance is necessary to' vary from the ordinance standards.
The applicant shall be required to provide a plan indicating the location of the non-
compliant fixtures.
Fixture Height. Section 401.15.B.7. Outdoor Lighting requires that "the maximum
height above the ground grade permitted for light sources mounted on a pole is twenty -
five (25) feet." A number of fixtures existing on the site do not meet the requirement in
that the light source and fixture is over 25 .feet in height. The approved conditional use
permit includes a condition that "all outdoor lighting poles must be reduced to twenty -
five (25) feet in height." The amended conditional use permit is required to vary from
the approved conditions and the variance from ordinance standards. The plan should
indicate the location of those fixtures that exceed the approved height.
Photometric., The plans as attached include the photometrics of the existing site as
well as plans reflecting changes to the lighting to decrease the intensity of lights.
Section 401.15.6.7. Outdoor lighting requires the following:
d. Intensity. No light source or combination thereof which oast light on a public
street shall exceed one (1) foot candle meter reading as measured from the
centerline of said street nor shall any light source or combination thereof which
cast light on adjacent property exceed four - tenths (0.4) foot candles as measured
at the property line, per the method outlined in Section 401.15.8.7.e.
The revised plan (Exhibit 3) is consistent with the requirements for photometrics at the
centerline of Neal. Avenue. The plan will need to be revised so that the maximum
intensity of .04 foot candles is maintained at the east and south property lines.
Variance Review. Zoning Ordinance Section 401.04.A.5 states that a variance from
the terms of the ordinance shall not be granted unless it can be demonstrated that:
Undue hardship will result if the variance is denied due to the existence of special
conditions and circumstances which are peculiar to the land, structure, or
building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or
buildings in the same district.
Stillwater Ford Lighting Variance
Planning Report
Paget
a Special conditions may include exceptional topographic or water
conditions or, in the case of an existing lot or parcel of record, narrowness,
shallowness, insufficient area or shape of the property.
b. Undue hardship by the special conditions and circumstances may not be
solely economic in nature, if a reasonable use of the property exists under
the terms of this Title.
c. Special conditions and circumstances causing undue hardship shall not be
a result of lot size or building location when the lot qualifies as a buildable
parcel.
2. Literal interpretation of the provisions of this Ordinance would deprive the
applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same district
under the terms of this Ordinance or deny the applicant the ability to put the
property in question to a reasonable use.
a The special conditions and circumstances causing the undue hardship do not
result from actions of the applicant.
4. Granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special
privilege that is denied by this Ordinance to other lands, structures or buildings in
the same district under the same conditions.
5. The request is not a result of non - conforming lands, structures or buildings the
same district.
6. The request is not a use variance.
7. The variance requested is the minimum variance necessary to accomplish the
intended purpose of the applicant.
8. The request does not create an inconvenience to neighboring properties and
uses.
Amended Conditional Use Permit Review. The applicant was made fully aware of
all lighting standards when the conditional use permit and site plan were approved in
1999. The conditions for approval clearly state the requirements for a ten foot setback
and a 25 foot pole and light source height.
RECOMMENDATION
In that there is no apparent justification for the variance and the applicant was fully
aware of the lighting conditions of the conditional use permit, the request for the
variance, and amended conditional use permit should be denied. The applicant should
Stillwater Ford Lighting Variance
Planning Report
Page 3
provide a site plan that clearly indicates the nonconforming fixtures. If the CUP and
variance is denied, the applicant will be required to retrofit all of the fixtures and the
photometric .
hotometric of the site as soon as possible to be compliant with the ordinance and
previous approvals.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
Excerpt From Approved Meeting Minutes
F. Stillwater Ford CUP for Offsite Parking.
Planner Richards reviewed the request for off site parking for employees.
Councilmember McComber, seconded by Mayor Beaudet, moved to amend
Resolution item 6 to allow inventory stickers on the car windows. Carried 5 — 0.
Councilmember Doerr, seconded by Byrne, moved to amend Resolution item 1 to
strike the words "employee parking". Carried 5 — 0.
Councilmember Swenson, seconded by McComber, moved to approve the
Resolution with amendments. Roll call vote taken. Carried 5 —0.
1. The five flood lights focused on the front facade significantly increases the light
intensity and light glare on the site. Due to the proximity of the freestanding
fixtures to the front of the building and the fact that all of the wall signs are back
lit, the building facade and signs are adequately lit without the need for additional
flood lights. I n fact, it appears as though the five flood lights are focused on cars
and not the building facade. The Planning Commission should recommend to
the City Council that the five floodlights be removed.
2. The revised site plan should be further revised such that the site is compliant with
the light intensity requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Shielding should be
placed such that no more than 0.4 foot candles of light be cast on the south
property line. The plan as proposed for the east property line is acceptable.
3. The requested variance for fixture setback is acceptable to staff in that many of
the fixture bases existed before the 10 foot setback requirement was included in
the Zoning Ordinance as part of the lighting standards adopted in 1997. The
boulevard area between the curb and property line is approximately 30 feet along
Neat Avenue and 60th Street. The fixtures are adequately set back from the curb
even if they are less than 10 feet from the property line.
City staff recommends the variance and CUP for the eight freestanding fixture setbacks,
removal of the five flood lights, and compliance with Zoning Ordinance requirements for
light intensity with the following conditions:
1. All freestanding light fixtures shall be replaced with fixtures and light sources that
do not exceed a total height of 25 feet.
2. The five flood lights shall be removed. No additional flood lighting of the building
facades or sales lot shall be allowed.
3. The lighting plan shall be revised to reflect a light intensity in compliance with the
Zoning Ordinance requirements. All fixtures shall be installed such that the light
intensity is compliant with the Zoning Ordinance requirements. The applicant
shall provide proof of compliance once all of the lighting fixtures are installed on
site.
4. The Planning Commission recommend and the City Council approve a variance
and amended CUP to allow the eight freestanding fixtures to remain at less than
the '10 foot setback requirement.
5. Other conditions of the Planning Commission and City Council.

As you are aware, the Gold ridge Group asked that consideration of the conditional use
permit (CUP) and variance to address lighting issues at the Stillwater Ford dealership
be continued to the December 13, 2001 Planning Commission meeting. The Planning
Commission had first considered the request at the September meeting. The applicant
has further refined the lighting plan and to include fixtures that comply with the
maximum height requirements. A revised lighting plan has been submitted for review
and approval.
Existing/Future Setbacks
Photometric Plan
Fixture Height. The applicant has indicated that all of the freestanding fixtures
currently on the site do not comply with the 25 foot height requirement for light sources
on a pole. The new plan proposes that all of the fixtures would have a 23 foot pole
height and would be mounted on a two foot base. With the new plan, all freestanding
fixtures would be compliant with the Zoning Ordinance and the original conditional use
permit approval.
Building Light Fixtures. All of the fixtures that have been installed on the building are
compliant with the Zoning Ordinance standards.
Flood Lights. Five . flood lights have been mounted on light poles to provide
architectural building lighting. These fixtures were not part of the original approvals.
Section 401.15.B.7 specifies that "architectural /historical light fixtures that feature

variance. Staff has reviewed the site at night and noted that the flood lights are directed
at the cars in the lot and not at the building facade.
Photometrics1 A revised photometric plan has been submitted including the light
intensities with the new plan. Section 401.15.B.7 of the Zoning Ordinance requires the
following:
"d. Intensity. No light source or combination thereof which cast light on
a public street shall exceed one (1) foot candle meter reading as
measured from the centerline of said street nor shall any light
source or combination thereof which casts fight on adjacent
property exceed four - tenths (0.4) foot candles as measured at the
property line, per the method outlined in Section 4O1915.B.7.e."
The revised plan indicates that with glare shields, light levels on the east property line
would be less than 0.4 foot candles at five feet below grade. The site elevation at the
edge of the parking area falls significantly on the property to the east. Thus, the
proposed lighting on the property line is acceptable. The light intensities on the south
property fine far exceed the 0.4 foot candle requirement. Even with glare shields, a
variance and amended CUP would be required to allow the light intensities at the
proposed levels. The light intensities nearest the street are all compliant with the one
foot candle requirement,
Fixture Setback. The revised site plan does not include moving the light fixtures that
are less than 10 feet from a street . wa ri ht -of - Eight fixtures on Neal Avenue /60
right-of-way. g
Street North have been found to be non - compliant with the 10 foot requirement. The
applicant requests variance and conditional use permit approval for those fixtures in that
moving the lights and light bases would result in a loss of car display area and place
fixtures in areas of the parking lot where they would be difficult for parking lot
maintenance. The hardship is that many of the fixtures were located on or near the
property line prior to the City adopting the light standards and setback for fixtures. The
Zoning Ordinance review criteria for variances is found in the planning report dated
October 2, 2001.
RECOMMENDATION AND CONCLUSION
City staff makes the following findings and recommendations related to the request and
revised site plan:

establishing Findings of Fact and Resolution of the City Council approving the
Stillwater Ford request for an amended CUP and variances to address lighting
conformity. Roll call vote taken. Carried 5 — 0.
