RE: Oak Park Heights — Oakgreen Village North
FILE NO: 798.02 — 03.15
At their February 4, 2004 workshop, the City Council provided direction on issues
related to density, street lighting, traffic, street parking, grading/drainage, trails, the plat
and project quality for Oakgreen Village North. These issues were outlined in my
February 5, 2004 memo to you that is attached. Representatives of Valley Senior
Services Alliance have been made aware of these issues and will be present at the
February 24, 2004 City Council meeting to discuss a resolution of each.
The two major issues remaining with the development center around density and traffic.
The City Council suggested removal of certain units to lessen the density and to
increase setback distances from public roadways. Valley Seniors has provided a
revised site plan addressing the setback issues but the existing density does not
change. A copy of the new plan is attached.
Shelly Johnson of Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik and Associates indicated, in a February
9, 2004 memo, that a traffic analysis should be prepared for all of the Oakgreen Village
development. This would also include the potential commercial development areas
west of Novak Avenue. Valley Senior representatives have indicated that they would
also like to discuss this issue further at the next Council meeting.
A revised plat has been provided to the City by the project engineer. City staff is
working with the engineer to assure all of the corrections and issues have been
addressed on the plat before it is approved by the City Council.
The application for the Oakgreen Village North project was submitted on November 12,
2003. The City Council will need to make a decision on this matter before the 120 day
review period expires. A decision will need to be made by the March 9, 2004 City
Council meeting.

RE: Oak Park Heights — Oakgreen Village North: City Council Review
FILE NO: 798.02 — 03.15
As you are aware, the City Council, at their Wednesday night workshop, discussed
issues related to Oakgreen Village North. The issues and general discussion from the
workshop related to Oakgreen Village is as follows.
Density. The City Council was presented with a report dated February 4, 2004 from
our office providing density calculations for the development based upon the Zoning
Ordinance requirements. The Oakgreen Village development is compliant with the
density, but is at the maximum for the Outiot E area and about to the maximum for the
Outiot B area.
In reviewing the plans, the City Council suggested some units closest to the rights-of--
way could be eliminated to reduce the density and provide more separation between the
building and street. It was suggested, at a minimum, that the end "B" unit in Block 5, the
"D" unit in Block 6 be eliminated and that the three north "C" units in Block 2 be
eliminated or reconfigured to be further from Novak Avenue. Additional density
reductions in this area by the applicant would be encouraged by the City Council.
The City Council based their discussion on the concerns raised by both the Planning
Commission and Parks Commission related to the density of the development. As part
of PUD approvals, the City has the right to set a development density less than the
Zoning Ordinance regulations.
Street Lights. The City Council was favorable to standard City street lighting for the
Oakgreen Village North development. The City would accept all maintenance and
operational costs of the lighting once it has been installed by the applicant and turned
over to the City.
Traffic. The city Council, based upon the City Engineer comments, was satisfied with
the traffic count information provided by the applicant. They also were favorable to the
City Engineer's comments related to the turn lanes required for Novak and Nutmeg
Avenues, and the separation distance shown on the plans between Oakgreen and
Nutmeg Avenues.
Street Parking. The City Council favored allowing parking on only one side of
Nutmeg Avenue. No parking would be allowed on the outside or north /east side of
Nutmeg. The no parking signs would be required of the applicant as part of the street
construction.
Grading /Drainage. In that the grading area is significantly larger than the first phase
of development, the applicant will be required to seed and provide appropriate erosion
control devices over the entire area that is to be disturbed. The City Council was not
favorable to leaving large areas of exposed yard for an extended period of time.
Trails. The City Council discussed the need to have the applicant place all of the
internal trails on their property. This would include the trail on 58 Street. All liability
and maintenance of these trails will be the responsibility of the developer and
subsequent ownership.
Plat. The plat will need to be revised to address issues with the trails, as indicated
above, as well as to add the additional right-of-way required by the City Engineer for
Oakgreen Avenue and for turn lanes on Novak and Nutmeg Avenues. The plat and all
diagrams need to be revised to include the current street names. The ownership/right-
of-way issue for that area at the corner of Novak and Nutmeg Avenues must be
addressed in the plans.

Scott Richards asked that i send you the attached drawing that we did in
response to city review questions. This drawing shows straightening Novak Ave at
the NW side of the site so the S/N townhomes are not as close to the street. This
also allows the west to east townhomes along Nutmeg to move a little further
west so that the block 5 units are not so close to the curve of the street.
With these changes the density does not change but setbacks are increased.
And moving Novak Ave to the west is still located on property controlled by the
owner.
Hopefully these will be helpful for next week's meeting.
Thank you.

Oakgreen Village Trip Generation
Project No. 55-04-000
I have reviewed the vehicle trip generation data provided on the attached site plan. The daily trip rates
utilized were from the ITE Report titled Trip Generation, 6 Edition, 1991. There is a newer version of
ITE, Trip Generation. It is the 7 Edition, published in 2003.
p ]�
The newer average tri p rates are just slightly higher than the trip rates in the 6 Edition. The townhouse
daily rates are 5.86 tripsldwelling unit compared to 5.8 used on the site plan. The apartment daily trip rates
are 6.72 trips /dwellings unit compared to 6.5 used on the site plan. The total estimated daily trips, using the
more recent dates, is 1,115 • is • - d to 1,090 on the site plan. The increase is inconsequential in terms of
It would see ' to me that a traffic analysis needs to be prepared for all of the Oakgreen Village development
— an anal Y daily � . is that includes dail .nd peak hour tri p proj - ctions and level of service analysis of the roadways
and inters * ctions, Such an analysis will provide a bette understanding of the future trips generated by
Oakgreen (a ' s phases), and adjacent undevelope LA operty should be included. Such an area study needs
to consider the future _ � 36.
Another issue Y ou wished addressed is the location of the easterly access to 58 Street to /from the Oakgreen
South development. This access is shown approximately 300 feet west of Oakgreen Avenue. Discussion
was previously held regarding this access — it was previously located closer to Oakgreen Avenue. It has
been moved as close to the pond as possible. We feel it is necessary to have the two access points (Novak
and Nutmeg Avenues) to 58 Street for this residential development. While we would have liked to
maximize the access separation to 400 or 500 feet, we believe the access located at 300 feet will not create
any serious traffic operation problems.

Oak Park Heights — Oakgreen village North: Density
798.02 — 03.15
Please find the following density calculations for Oakgreen village North. The Zoning
Ordinance, in Section 401.15.C.3, sets a density requirement for townhomes in planned
unit developments of 4,000 square feet per unit on the basis of the total area in the
project and as controlled by the individual or joint ownership. Multiple family units with
two bedrooms requires 2,500 square feet of lot per unit and 3,000 square feet of lot for
three bedroom units.
Outlot E Area 68 townhomes proposed
Area in Outlot E is 274,276 square feet divided by 4,000 = 68.5 townhomes allowed
Based upon the actual area within Outlot E, the density as proposed is consistent with
the Zoning Ordinance allowance. Outlot F would be excluded in that it will be controlled
by the City.
Outlot C Area —19 townhomes proposed
Area in Outiot cis 133,278 square feet divided by 4,000 = 33 townhomes allowed
Outlot E6 Area - 90 apartments units proposed
Area in Outlot B minus 59 Street right -- of-way = 258,085 square feet
50% 2 bedrooms 128,343 square feet divided by 2,500 square feet = 51
50% 3 bedrooms 128,343 square feet divided by 3,000 square feet = 43
94 apartment
units allowed
The applicants have not presented specific plans to determine numbers of two and
three bedroom units for the multiple family buildings. Based upon the density
allowance, slightly more than 50 percent three bedroom units could be allowed.
3, Lot Area Per Unit. (The lot area per unit requirement for townhouses
a
quadraminiums, condominiums and planned unit developments shall be calculated
on the basis of the total area in the project and as controlled by an individual and
joint ownership.)
Two Family 6,000 square feet
Townhouse, Quadraminium 4,000 square feet
Multiple Family 2,500 square feet*
Elderly Housing 1,000 square feet
* Add 500 square feet for each bedroom over two bedrooms per unit.
4. Building Height Exceptions. The building height limits established for each
zoning district shall not apply to the following list of items, except that no such
structural element may exceed forty -five (45) feet in total height or exceed the
maximum height of the building by more than five (5) feet, whichever is g reater
except by conditional use permit.
a. Belfries.
b. Chimneys or flues.
c. Church spires.
d. Cooling towers.
e. Cupolas and domes which do not contain useable space.
f. Elevator penthouses.
g. Flag poles.
h. Monuments.
