DATE: March 2, 2006
RE: Oak Park Heights -- Oakgreen Villager PUD Concept Plan
FILE NO: 798.02 -- 04.17
BACKGROUND
Tim Nolde, representing Anchobaypro Inc. and Valley Senior Services Alliance (VSSA)
has made application for a PUD concept plan approval for that area west of
Oakgreen Avenue and north of 58 Street. The area under application at this time
consists of approximately 11 acres and encompasses a significant portion of what was
the Central Business District. The City Council approved a PUD general plan and
preliminary /final plat on March 9, 2004 for this area. A revised concept plan was
reviewed by the Planning Commission at the April 14, 2005 meeting. This plan was not
acceptable to the Planning Commission and was sent to the City Council with a
recommendation of denial. In June of 2005, the Planning Commission approved
another revised PUD concept plan. The applicant withdrew the PUD concept plan
before the City Council review.
The applicant has submitted the most recent concept plan that eliminates direct access
from 58 Street. The total number of units has decreased from 120 to 113 units. The
development would be phased with a total of 67 units in the first phase and the second
with 46 townhome units near Oakgreen Avenue. Novak Avenue is proposed in its
previous location.
The applicant is requesting only concept plan review of the Phase 1 at this time.

Proposed Project. The project narrative for the site describes the project as follows:
The concept of this development is to create an attractive and affordable
community for the City of Oak Park Heights. The newly revised layout
incorporates better circulation and creates additional open areas for the
development."
The general plan for the first phase of development in this area, approved in 2004, was
for 87 townhome units. Those plans are included in Exhibit C. The concept plan for
the area included 203 overall units, 111 which were townhomes and 92 apartment units
in two separate buildings. The concept plan encompassed the area south of the Xcel
power line easement to 58 Street and from Novak Avenue to Oakgreen Avenue. The
plan recommended for denial by the Planning Commission is found as Exhibit D.
The concept for a revised plan included 79 townhome units in the first phase. The
second phase was on the easterly edge of the property near Oakgreen Avenue and was
to include 41 additional townhome units where Tax Increment Financing (TIF) would
have been applied to assist in acquiring the remaining existing homes.
The current concept plan includes 67 townhome units in the first phase. The second
phase is the northern edge of the property near Oakgreen Ave. That phase would
include 46 additional townhome units.
The applicant has proposed three different styles of building units in the development.
The applicant plans to begin the first phase this year with site grading to be completed
and the construction of Novak Avenue North. The ponding outlots for both the existing
wetland and proposed pond would be completed. The first phase of buildings (Units 1
2
67) would be started this year with the timing of the construction of the remaining units
and private streets depending upon unit sales.
The plans include right -of -way to be dedicated with the plat. The Planning Commission
and City Council should discuss the need for and the timing of 59 Street as part of the
discussions of the concept plan.
Comprehensive Plan. A Comprehensive Plan amendment was approved in July
2005, removing the Central Business District (CBD) designation and replacing it with B-
4, Limited Business; a commercial land use designation. The proposed project
complies with the Comprehensive Plan.
Zoning. This property has been designated as B -4, Limited Business which
accommodates residential development as a conditional use. As such, the underlying
base zoning district will be B -4, Limited Business with a Planned Unit Development
(PUD) overlay. The B -4, Limited Business District lists two family, townhomes and
multiple family dwellings as a conditional use.
Subdivision. A preliminary plat was submitted with this application and Planning
Commission and City Council will review as part of the general plan of development
review.
Park Dedication. Park dedication is based upon the specifications of Section 402.08
of the Subdivision Ordinance. The residential area to be platted would be subject to
park dedication. The applicants have been advised that a property appraisal would
need to be provided to calculate the park dedication amount. A small tot lot park is
planned within the development that would be privately maintained by the association.
The Subdivision Ordinance indicates that a credit for such areas can be granted by the
City Council. This will be a policy decision of the City Council with input of the Planning
Commission and Park Commission.
B-4, Limited Business Standards. Section 401.301.E.9 of the Zoning Ordinance
provides the CUP standards for allowing residential use in the B -4 District. The
standards are as follows:
Two family, townhomes and multiple family dwellings, provided that:
a. At least two parking spaces per unit must be provided for on site, or proof is shown
of arrangements for private parking nearby.
b. No physical improvements, either interior or exterior, may preclude future re -use
for commercial purposes.
c. Unit floor areas must comply with Section 401.15.C.0.
d. Compliance with conditional use requirements of Section 401.03.A.8.
3
e. The development does not conflict with existing or potential future commercial
uses and activities.
f The density, setbacks, and building height standards imposed as part of the R-3
Zoning District are complied with.
g. Adequate open space and recreational space is provided on site for the benefit of
the occupants.
h. The development does not conflict or result in incompatible land use arrangements
as related to abutting residential uses or commercial uses.
Residential use be governed by all applicable standards of the Zoning Ordinance,
Building Code, Housing Code and Fire Codes.
Residential and non- residential uses shall not be contained on the same floor.
k. Residential uses shall be provided with a separate entrance, and separately
identified parking stalls.
1 The architectural appearance, design and building materials of residential
structures shall be consistent with the Design Guidelines and subject to approval of
the City Council.
The Planning Commission and City Council will need to review these issues as part of
the concept plan review.
Project Density. Section 401.15.C.3 of the Zoning Ordinance establishes the density
thresholds for residential properties. Townhome projects require 4,000 square feet of
land area per unit excluding right -of -way and wetlands.
The phase one development consists of a total area of 315,700 square feet which
excludes the wetland and right - of-way area. The 67 units planned for that area would
result in an area per unit of 4,712 square feet. The calculations for the second phase
would result in an area per unit of 5,485 square feet.
Proposed Street/Access. The plans indicate a different layout plan from the previous
concept and general plans that have been reviewed by the City for this project. Novak
Avenue North would remain in the same location to connect 58 Street with 60 Street
(Highway 36 frontage road). Novak is provided an 100 foot right -of -way with a 34 foot
wide street. Nutmeg Avenue and direct access to 58 Street North from the proposed
development has been eliminated. Access will be from a private street network.
The Planning Commission has previously discussed the need to provide adequate
separation between the residential uses in the east portion of the B -4 and the
commercial areas to the west. The City Engineer has indicated that 100 feet of right-of-
way will give adequate area for significant boulevard tree plantings along Novak
Avenue. Additionally, the applicant proposes to preserve the existing tree grove on the
4
north side of the existing wetland and pond and plant a screen of trees between Novak
and the townhome units. The Planning Commission may want to comment further on
the need for additional separation and landscaping including a planted berm along the
length of Novak on public and private right -of -way,
The plans also include a 50 foot right -of -way dedication for Oakgreen Avenue as
required by the City Engineer. This development, with the added traffic, will increase
the need to improve Oakgreen Avenue with shoulders and turn lanes. Utilities wilt be
placed within the Oakgreen Avenue right -of -way to serve this development. The City
Council should consider timing for the Oakgreen Avenue improvements with
construction of this development.
The plans include dedication of 66 feet of right -of -way for a future 59 Street. The
Planning Commission and City Council should discuss this roadway and its necessity as
part of the overall plans for this area. The City will require the right -of -way dedication to
allow future roadway development.
The City Council will need to make a policy decision as it relates to the private street
network for this project. In the past, the City has not allowed significant private streets
to serve as access to this number of housing units. The private roadways are proposed
at a 28 foot width. A temporary through - street at the east portion of Phase 1 is proposed
to accommodate temporary circulation. The Fire Marshal and Police Chief should also
review the plans to determine accessibility of emergency vehicles throughout the
development.
Private Driveways. The plans include the private roadways, most which are designed
with a "thru" design. The plan has been revised to include 20 foot driveways between
the front of the garage and the private driveway area, The City Engineer will require a
28 foot private roadway system.
Trails /Sidewalks. The plan includes a system of private trails that would intersect with
the City's trail system. A continuation of the eight foot trail along the Xcel power line
easement is planned to extend to Novak Avenue. A five foot sidewalk is also planned
on the private property right -of -way on the north side of 58 Street. The plans show a
City sidewalk on the east side of Novak Avenue. The sidewalk will need to continue
from 58 Street to 60 Street. The internal system of private sidewalks will provide
access throughout the development and around the wetland natural area. The Planning
Commission and the Park Commission should comment on the proposed private and
public trail system and connection east to Oakgreen Avenue North in Phase 2,
Setbacks. Within a PUD, the base district setback requirements (B--4) are applied only
to the perimeter of the project. The B -4 specifies setback requirements as follows. 40
feet front yard, 20 feet rear yard and 1 0 feet side yard. If the lot is on a corner, not less
than 20 feet from a lot line is required for side yards. The PUD section of the Zoning
Ordinance specifies that buildings should be located at least 20 feet from the back of a
curb line from roadways as part of the internal street pattern. Additionally, the
ordinance species that no building within the project shall be nearer to another building
by one -half the sum of the building heights of the two buildings.
5
All of the setback requirements would be met with the exception of Unit 1, 32 and 44
which measure 5 -7 feet. As part of the PUD, all perimeter units must maintain a 20 foot
setback to the lot lines. The applicant will provide additional information as part of the
general plan review to determine if the building to building setback requirements will be
met. Minor adjustments to the building setbacks may be required to comply with the
PUD section of the Zoning ordinance.
Traffic. The applicant should provide projected vehicle count information for the
proposed development. The City Engineer will require additional information and
analysis of how the development will affect the traffic on Oakgreen Avenue and 58
Street, as well as the proposed Novak Avenue. The applicant should provide this
information for Planning Commission review.
Tree Preservation /Landscaping. The applicant has provided preliminary information
on existing tree coverage and a landscape plan. The existing conditions map indicates
the tree masses that would be removed to accommodate the development. The City
Arborist will review the detailed tree preservation plans and landscape plans as part of
general plan of development review. The City Arborist advises that 9 different species
of maple creates an ecological monoculture which is susceptible to disease devastation.
As part of the general plan stage, the applicant will be required to tabulate an inventory
of existing trees, calculate a tree replacement list and reduce the number of maple
species proposed.
Park. The applicants have provided a small park area in Phase 2 that would be
owned and maintained by the homeowners association. More detailed plans of the park
would be required for general plan of development review.
Grading and Drainage. The City Engineer will comment on any issues with the plan
at development stage. A separate conditional use permit has been submitted for
temporary stockpile storage of topsoil and granular particles. This application will be
reviewed in a separate planning report.
Utilities. A utility plan has been submitted. The utility plans will be subject to City
Engineer review and approval at the general plan of development stage.
Parking. Two spaces within an enclosed garage are provided per unit. Forty nine
(49) guest parking spaces are proposed in various locations throughout the
development; 29 parking spaces in Phase 1 and 20 parking spaces in Phase 2. The
plans also allow for 20 feet of driveway in front of each garage door. To be consistent
with the City Engineers recommendation, the driveways need to be 22 feet and the
private streets 28 feet. Parking on one side of the street could be allowed on a 28 foot
roadway.
Architectural Appearance. The application materials include preliminary drawings of
the proposed townhome and four -plex units. The structures are basic townhome row
units with small porches, varying roof lines with brick and lap siding. The four -plex
housing units lack architectural detail as they portray extensive horizontality and no
6
change in material. The Planning Commission and City Council should comment in
general on these changes for the more complete review that will be done as part of the
general plan of development review.
Development Contract. The applicant will be required to enter into a development
contract with the City should approval of the concept plan and general plan of
development be granted. As part of the contract, the provisions for street and utility
construction, as well as payment for area changes, would be included. The contract will
specify conditions of approval and issues related to phasing the development.
RECOMMENDATION 1 CONCLUSION
As part of its review, the Planning Commission should first look at the Comprehensive
Plan and determine from the goals and plans what is the most appropriate development
for this property. Previous plans have indicated a residential component for this area,
but commercial developments may also be appropriate.
If residential use is preferred for this property, it should be noted that this is the last
large parcel in the City that will accommodate that type of development. The City
should and can be selective in the type of development that it would allow there. The
current plan provides significantly more open space and is less dense than previous
plans. The primary issue may be the significant system of private roads that will be
required for this plan.
If the Planning Commission is favorable to the concept plan, it could be recommended
to the City Council with the following conditions:
1 B -4 District standards are compliant with the proposed project application.
2. The applicant provides a property appraisal, acceptable to the City Attorney to
calculate park dedication,
3 The plat shall dedicate right -of -way for Novak Avenue, 59 Street, and Oakgreen
Avenue as required by the City Engineer and City Attorney.
4 The Planning Commission and City Council should discuss the need for and the
timing of 59 Street as part of the discussions of the concept plan.
5. The Planning Commission and City Council should comment on the design of
Novak Avenue including screening, landscaping and berms that may be required.
The Planning Commission and City Council should comment on the acceptability
of the private street network for this development.
7. The Fire Marshal and Police Chief should review the plans and determine the
accessibility of emergency vehicles throughout the development.
7
8. The Planning Commission and Park commission should comment on the
proposed private and public trail system.
9. All required setbacks to conform with zoning and wetland ordinance
requirements shall be incorporated in the general plan of development.
10. All perimeter units must maintain a 20 foot setback to the lot lines.
11. The applicant shall provide vehicle count information and projections as required
by the City Engineer.
12, Detailed tree inventory, tree preservation, and landscape plans shall be provided
for general plan of development.
13. Detailed park plans will be required for general plan of development review.
14. Detailed grading, drainage and utility plans shall be provided for general plan of
development review.
15. Detailed architectural plans for the proposed buildings in the project shall be
required for general plan of development review.
16. The Planning Commission and City Council should comment on the need for
upgrades to Oakgreen Avenue as part of this development.
