Oak Park Heights, MN 55082 Applicant: CJ Randazzo JACC Capital Holdings, LLC 5845 Stagecoach Trail N. Oak Park Heights, MN 55082 Site Address: 5845 Stagecoach Trail N., Oak Park Heights, MN 55082 Present Zoning District: R/B Residential/Business Transitional Permitted Uses set forth in Ordinance 401, Section 401.03.A.7; 401.15.C.8. I. CUP PERMIT: The property consisting of a vacant lot of 15,226 square feet. An Xcel Energy substation exists to the south of the Property, another vacant lot is located to the north, and a single-family residential neighborhood lies to the west. The subject property was previously zoned as I, Industrial District but was subject to an approved comprehensive plan amendment by the City Council to Residential/Business Transitional zoning at its December 10, 2024 meeting. The Applicant proposed to construct a three-story, 6-unit residential condominium building, and submitted an application and site plan for Architectural Design Guideline/Site Plan review. The proposed site plan included proposed parking for 13 parking spaces whereas zoning requirements require one space per unit, or 6 spaces total, thus requiring a Conditional Use Permit. The Site Plan otherwise meets all setback, height, density and zoning requirements. The proposed use satisfies all required conditions of the zoning code and is in general conformance with the neighborhood. The application was subject to a public hearing before and consideration by the Planning Commission on March 13, 2025, which recommended denial of the application. Although the City's zoning code seeks to reduce excess parking lot impervious surface, the City Council noted the lack of availability of safe street parking on Stagecoach Trail, and the adjoining residential neighborhood expressed its preference to limit parking in the adjacent neighborhood, thereby justifying Applicant's additional onsite parking as a reasonable conditional use. All permits and uses, architectural design and site plan as applied for a residential condominium building are granted, but shall be subject to the following conditions and/or restrictions imposed by Resolution 25-03-11 of the City Council of the City of Oak Park Heights dated March 25, 2025, which are as follows: The Fire Chief and Police Chief shall approve the final plans to determine the accessibility of emergency vehicles throughout the development. 2. The landscape plan shall be revised, with review and approval by the City Arborist at their discretion, to include additional tree cover at the front of the property adjacent to Stagecoach Trail North to screen the property to the west. This may include trees in the right-of-way (subject to approval of Washington County) and on Applicant's property, subject to review and approval of the City Arborist. 3. The grading and drainage plans shall be subject to City Engineer and the Middle St Croix Water Management Organization approval. 4. All utility plans shall be subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. 5. The City Council was favorable to the proposed number of parking stalls that exceed the City requirement. 6. All lighting fixtures are required to be installed in compliance with the lighting standards of the Zoning Ordinance or as approved by the City Council. Any light fixtures that create a nuisance condition for the neighborhood to the west may be subject to review by the City Council and replacement by the owners with more acceptable fixtures. 7. All the trash storage and recycling shall be internal to the building. 8. Any mechanical equipment that is ground mounted or visible from adjacent streets shall be screened as required by the Zoning Ordinance. 9. Any proposed signage for the site shall be compliant with the Zoning Ordinance and require a sign permit. 10. An annual review of the project shall be conducted by City Staff related to parking, traffic, lighting and any other issues as determined by City Staff. Any unresolved issues relating to parking, traffic, or lighting may be brought forward for City Council review. iI. Reference Attachment: The City Planner report dated March 6, 2025 and all exhibits therein are annexed hereto by reference as "Exhibit B." III. Abandonment: This Conditional Use Permit requires substantial commencement of construction within 12 months of approval and continuous use in order to preserve the Conditional Use granted by the City under the terms hereof. Any discontinuation or abandonment of the uses permitted hereunder upon the site for a period of twelve (12) continuous months shall constitute abandonment and void the Conditional Use Permit. IV. Annual Review: Annual review is imposed as a condition of this Conditional Use Permit. This permit shall be reviewed on or about October 1 of each year. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have set forth their hands and seals.

The development would be a six unit, three story condominium building at 5845 Stagecoach Trail North. In October 2024, Mr. Randazzo applied for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change the land use classification of Industrial use to Residential/Business Transitional use; Conditional Use Permits for building height, parking, and density bonus; and Design Guidelines/Site Plan review for the project- At their December 10, 2024, meeting the City Council denied the requests for the Conditional Use Permits but approved the Comprehensive Plan Amendment. Mr. Randazzo has redesigned the building to comply with the building height, density, and the Design Guidelines review. The Conditional Use Permit for parking is still required in that the parking provided in the plans exceeds what is required by ordinance. The review is based upon the following submittals: Exhibit 1: Project Narrative Exhibit 2: Project Location Exhibit 3: Existing Site Conditions Exhibit 4: Site Plan (C200) Exhibit 5: Landscape Plan (1-100) Exhibit 6: General Information — Perspectives (A00.01) Exhibit 7: General Information — Perspectives (A00.02) Exhibit 8: Architectural Site Lighting Plan (A20.01) Exhibit 9: Photometric Plan Exhibit 10: Plan — Parking (A30.00) Exhibit 11: Plan — First Floor (A30.01) Page 27 of 92 Exhibit 12 Plan — Second Floor (A30.02) Exhibit 13 Plan — Roof (A30.03) Exhibit 14: Exterior Elevations (A40.00) Exhibit 15: Exterior Elevations (A40.01) Exhibit 16: General Information — Perspectives — Materials (A00.03) Exhibit 17. Light Fixtures — Wall and Bollard PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project narrative is as follows and as found as Exhibit 1. project Overview JACC Capitals is proud to present the development of a 6-unit apartment building near the scenic and historic town of Stillwater, Minnesota. Located along the picturesque St. Croix River, this project offers future residents a modem, elegant living experience while embracing the natural beauty and charm of the surrounding area.

Please see the supporting document for light fixtures, construction, etc. Unit Composition: 6-unit building will offer a variety and sizes of 2 bedroom and 3 bedroom units each designed to maximize natural light and river view for the back units of the apartment. ISSUES ANALYSIS Adjacent Uses. Uses adjacent to the subject site include open area to the north, Highway 95 to the east, the Xcel Energy Substation to the south, and a single family neighborhood to the west. Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan 2018 Proposed Land Use Map designated this area as Industrial. This reflects the previous use that was a commercial business and the use to the south which is the Xcel Energy Substation. The City Council approved a land use classification of Residential/Business Transitional Use for the subject property at their December 10, 2024, meeting. The land use classification change has been submitted and approved by the Metropolitan Council. Zoning. The property is currently zoned R/B - Residential Business Transitional District. Multiple family structures are a permitted use in the District. Building Height, Section 401.15.C.2 allows for a building height of 35 feet in the R/B District. The proposed building will be three stories and 33 feet, 4 % inches to the top of the flat roof of the building. The height of the parapet is 2 feet, 3 inches above the roof and the elevator is 4 feet above the roof. The measurements are taken from the median grade. A Conditional Use Permit is no longer required for the proposed height of the structure. 2 Page 28 of 92 Density. Section 401.15.C.3 specifies that 2,500 square feet of lot area is required per unit (500 square feet is to be added for each bedroom over two bedrooms per unit). The unit count for the project is as follows: 1 Bedroom Units: 0 2 Bedroom Units: 6 3 Bedroom Units: 0 Total: 6 The lot area is 15,246 square feet. The six units would require a lot size of 15,000 square feet. A Conditional Use Permit is not required to allow a density bonus. Parking. The Zoning Ordinance requires at least one parking space per unit for multifamily structures or a total of six stalls for this development. The plans indicate 13 covered parking stalls, one of which is disability accessible. The proposed parking is over the amount of required parking and requires Conditional Use Permit review.

My neighbors will address ongoing concerns, especially overflow parking and increased traffic on a dangerous curve (see findings of fact, parts C and D from the denial of the first round of permits). Rather than reiterating those points, I'd like to highlight other flaws in the updated plans that still conflict with Conditional Use Permit criteria found in Section 401.03.A.7 of the Zoning Ordinance and the reasons the Planning Commission and City Council denied the first proposal and corresponding permits, respectively on Nov. 25 and Dec. 10, 2024. First, the appearance remains a jarring, modern structure resembling shipping containers —still clashing with the historic single family residential neighborhood across from it. (Do not get me started on how badly the proposed exterior light features have misunderstood the assignment of "fitting in with the neighborhood.") The findings of fact, part A from the Dec. 10 denial still apply in that these revised plans for the condo building "...would not be in conformity with the present and future land uses in the area because the... appearance of the structure is at odds with the historic single family residential neighborhood directly to the west of the subject site." The revised plans also promise nothing to reduce occupant density, a concern noted in findings of fact, part B: "The proposed condominium building would have an impact on the character of the surrounding area in that the density of the development would be higher than the single family residential neighborhood to the west." While all units now have two bedrooms (instead of four 2-bedroom and two 4-bedroom units), the two extra bedrooms from the 4-bedroom units remain on the floor plans —simply left empty. Nothing prevents future residents from using them as bedrooms, effectively increasing occupancy again. Furthermore, the revised plans still fail to address the neighborhood's privacy concerns —western balconies and windows remain unchanged, and no tree replacement has been added at the front of the lot. With the current western balcony placement, residents have a choice of only two views: into our homes or of Stagecoach traffic —I'll let you decide which they would find more interesting. I'm curious as to why JACC Capital Holdings, LLC hasn't tried right -sizing the proposed building to the third -of -an -acre lot. I offer the following as an example of changes that would improve the second proposal's conformity: Instead of six units, if the plans were redone for four 2-bedroom units laid out like the larger, previously 4-bedroom units, Page 56 of 92 • But with the square footage of the two empty rooms removed from all four units to yield an overall smaller building footprint, • In addition to garage parking, surface parking spots could then fit on the lot and may suffice overflow parking needs. Further design changes could improve privacy for all and reduce light and noise pollution: • Relocating all balconies to the east side (since the larger units span the building) ensures no unit loses a balcony and everyone gets a "riverfront" view. ■ This prevents the direct light and noise pollution of condo residents on balconies from disrupting the peace of the neighborhood to the west. (No homes directly face the back of the proposed building, so this change wouldn't inconvenience existing neighbors.) • Removing west -side balconies eliminates the need for double -wide sliding glass doors, allowing for smaller windows to enhance privacy for both condo residents and neighbors. • Replanting more mature evergreens (like the two currently at the front of the lot) between the condo building and the street would create a partial privacy screen between the building and our existing homes across the street. I am sensitive to the fact that Mr. Randazzo owns a piece of property he has not been able to profit from. Yet, I'm also keenly aware that the quiet life I anticipated when I purchased my home —with neighbors on only two sides —and have enjoyed for four years now hangs in the balance, facing up to six new households overlooking my daily life. There must be a middle ground between drastic population growth with corresponding car congestion and the status quo, and I remain open to finding a solution that works for both Mr. Randazzo and our beloved, historic neighborhood. Once again, I thank you for your service and support of our community. Sincerely, Carissa Stimpfel 5856 Stagecoach Trail N. Page 57 of 92 RECEIVED MA"I 12 2025 To Whom it May Concern: I have a suggestion, gathering community input would go a long way in this community backing this. What if we kept the tree line and had a house, a duplex or a tri-plex? Then also make sure we ensure privacy for those across Stagecoach. A smaller dwelling would also be safer to traffic, could keep the tree line and add to the neighborhood. For the updated proposal: JACC Capital Holdings LLC may feel entitled to put this condo in our neighborhood because they invested some money. Everyone in this neighborhood made one of the biggest, if not the biggest investment of their lives and since it's where we live, it's personal. Based on the fact that very little was changed in their proposal, and after hearing us detail at length all of the personal and financial impacts to us, it tells us JACC Capital Holdings LLC doesn't care about this neighborhood. The neighborhood's core is its people and our homes, and we deeply care about this neighborhood, its character and to support each other. Your investment is not even a drop in the bucket compared to the investment each one of us made and continues to make personally and financially. JACC Capital Holdings LLC made a choice to buy that property and what they're choosing to do with that investment is to attempt to make everyone in this neighborhood live with those choices despite the fact that we emphatically and unanimously don't want this proposal as stated. To detail again (and there's many more): • The traffic dangers with the multiple cyclists that frequent the narrow Stagecoach Trail. + The very dangerous corner where cars speed around a blind comer nearby. ■ Then there's the narrow neighborhood streets that are not made for a lot of parking. o The disruption to our too narrow streets when a resident at the condo has a party or family gathering. + The impact of the removal of the tree line for our neighborhood when we live here to be semi -rural and love our natural setting and love our natural habitats. • Then of course the colossal difference in architecture that makes this proposed structure stick out like a sore thumb. • Neighbor's privacy ■ Property value ■ Where does the construction equipment go? The construction worker's vehicles (refer above to my point about our narrow streets or take a stroll through the neighborhood)? The construction noise. Page 58 of 92 You've heard all of this in November. We still don't want it. To those who decide this, we care about our neighborhood, our neighbors and our homes. If there are suggestions you would like from us, please let us know. As an aside. As far as revenue for the city goes, with the King Coal plant shutting down, with the current administration (whether you like them or not), there could be interest in bringing a factory here. I heard they were using or trying to use existing empty factories instead of building new, so that could potentially save some money. I'd like to see this community thrive and it could potentially create a few new jobs, so thought I'd throw that out there. Sincerely, Brenda Paulson 5718 Stagecoach Trl N.
