Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 MEETING DATE: AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: REVIEWED BY: AGENDA ITEM: FEBRUARY 2, 2004 9A CYNTHIA KIRCHOFF, AICP, PLANNER JANE KANSIER, PLANNING COORDINATOR CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE 2020 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN LAND USE PLAN MAP TO THE C- TC DESIGNATION FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 4616 COLORADO STREET SE OWNED BY IVEX (Case File #03-149) DISCUSSION: History: IVEX, LLC is requesting an amendment to the 2020 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map to change the land use designation from R-L/MD (Urban Low/Medium Density Residential) to C-TC (Town Center Commercial) on property located at 4616 Colorado Street SE. On January 12, 2004, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on this item, and unanimously recommended approval. The Commission supported the change because it provides a natural extension of the downtown, since it is adjacent to property in the C- TC designation. A copy of the draft minutes of the Planning Commission meeting is attached to this report. The 2020 Vision and Strategic Plan proposes that the downtown be connected to Prior Lake. One means of accomplishing this is to extend the downtown westerly along CSAH 21 over time. The McCombs Study also suggests that the market would absorb this additional property for downtown uses. Current Circumstances: A single family dwelling, constructed in 1920, currently occupies the site. The property is currently zoned R-2 (Low-Medium Density Residential). A single family dwelling is a permitted use in the R-2 use district. The property abuts both CSAH 21 and Colorado Street. However, access is only provided via Colorado Street. PHYSICAL SITE CHARACTERISTICS: Total Site Area: The parcel is 9,616 square feet (.22 acres) in area. TOPoQraphv: The property is flat with little elevation change. Vegetation: The site contains minimal vegetation. 1:\03 files\03 comp amend\ivex property\cc report. doC f . I k WWW.cltyopnorae.com Page 1 Phone 952.447.4230 / Fax 952.447.4245 Wetlands: A wetland is not present on the property. Access: The property is currently accessed via Colorado Street. Utilities: Sewer and water services are currently available to the site; however, should the Comprehensive Plan amendment and subsequent rezoning be approved utilities must be upgraded for the commercial use. Adiacent Existing Uses, Zoning, and Land Use Plan designations: The following table details adjacent uses: Existing Land Zoning Land Use Plan Use North CSAH 21; Scott C-3, Specialty C-TC, Town Center County Library Business South Single family R-2, Low-Medium R-L/MD, Urban dwelling Density Residential Low/Medium Density East Printing business C-3, Specialty C-TC, Town Center Business West Single family R-2, Low-Medium R-L/MD, Urban dwelling Density Residential Low/Medium Density The Issues: The applicant is proposing to remove the existing dwelling and construct an office building on the site. In order to proceed, the Comprehensive Plan land use designation must be changed from R-L/MD (Urban Low/Medium Density Residential) to C- TC (Town Center Commercial). "This classification is a special designation for the historical and recognized Town Center which has retained attributes of a 'downtown,' despite relocation by some original commercial uses. The classification strives to balance the civic center and contemporary commercial features with new cultural- focused institutions and enterprises, and redevelopment potential of retail and service uses." The 2020 Comprehensive Plan goal and objectives that apply to the request for C-TC are as follows: GOAL: ECONOMIC VITALITY: Pursue a prudent use of available resources and the optimum functioning of economic systems. OBJECTIVE No.1: Determine and strive for a balance of commerce, industry, and population. OBJECTIVE No.2: Encourage a diversified economic base and a broad range of employment opportunities. OBJECTIVE No.3: Promote sound land use. OBJECTIVE No.4: Maintain high standards in the promotion and development of commerce and industry. 1:\03 files\03 comp amend\ivex property\cc report. doc Page 2 CONCLUSION: FISCAL IMPACT: ALTERNATIVES: RECOMMENDED MOTION: REVIEWED BY: The proposed C- TC designation for this property is consistent with the 2020 Comprehensive Plan goal and objectives. Moreover, the proposed amendment is consistent with the 2020 Vision and Strategic Plan Element to "complete [a] redevelopment plan tying Downtown to the Lake." The subject parcel abuts property guided and zoned for commercial uses so the amendment extends the downtown west toward Prior Lake, an envisioned by the City Council. The only corresponding zoning use district is C-3 (Specialty Business). "The 'C-3' Special Business Use District intends to provide for a variety of commercial and residential uses within the framework of a traditional downtown area. The district also contemplates and provides for pedestrian circulation, urban and civic design and the creative reuse of existing buildings." As previously noted, the applicant has plans to construct an office building on the property. However, the property is currently zoned for residential uses. Thus, in order to construct the office building, the applicant must also seek a zone change, in addition to the Comprehensive Plan amendment. So the rezoning would be the next step in the process. In conclusion, the applicant is requesting a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to allow for the construction of an office building on the subject property. Staff believes the request is consistent with the policies and objectives of the 2020 Comprehensive Plan and the 2020 Vision and Strategic Plan. RllrlgAt Imp<ilct. There is no direct budget impact involved in this request. The City Council has three alternatives: 1. Adopt a resolution amending the Comprehensive Plan to include this area and designate it as C-TC. 2. Continue the review for specific information or reasons per City Council discussion. 3. Find the Comprehensive Plan amendment inconsistent with the purpose and intent of the Comprehensive Plan and deny the request. In this case staff should be directed to prepare a resolution with findings of fact. The staff recommends Alternative #1. The following motion is required: 1. 1:\03 files\03 comp amend\ivex property\cc report. doc Page 3 16200 Eagle Creek Avenue S.E.

In support of this development project, IVEX would remove the structure currently located on the property. IVEX feels this in an excellent location for a multi-purpose office building, creating a win-win scenario for all parties, for the following reasons: . The location supports the City Council's initiative to enhance Prior Lake downtown redevelopment activities. . The location supports the 2020 Vision and Strategic Plan's desire to extend downtown towards the lake. . The proximity of the location to CR21 and potential intersection at Arcadia makes the site both very visible and accessible. . The municipal City parking lot across the street (in addition to any potential on- site parking) provides more than adequate parking availability. Request In support of this exciting development initiative, IVEX is requesting the City Council approve an amendment to the Prior Lake Comprehensive Land Use Plan to change the zoning for the property located at 4616 Colorado Street, Prior Lake, MN from R-2 to C-3.

IVEX, LLC is requesting a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from R-L/MD (Urban Low/Medium Density Residential) to C-TC (Town Center Commercial) on property located at 4616 Colorado Street SE.

This item will go before the City Council on February 2, 2004. C. Case #03-139 Arcon Development is requesting to amend the Zoning Map to include approximately 80 acres of land and to designate the property as R-1 (Low Density Residential). The property is located on the north side of CSAH 12 immediately west of Spring Lake Regional Park. Planning Coordinator Jane Kansier presented the Planning Report dated January 12, 2004, on file in the office of the City Planning Department. On October 21,2002, the City Council adopted a resolution annexing approximately 80 acres of land located on the north side of Shoreline Drive directly west of Spring Lake Park. On January 6, 2003, the City Council also approved an amendment to the City Comprehensive Plan to include this property on the 2020 Comprehensive Plan Map and to designate this property for Low to Medium Density Residential uses. The applicant is now proposing to designate this property as R-l (Low Density Residential) on the City Zoning Map. The Planning staff recommended approval as the proposed R-l district is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. It should also be noted a portion of the recently annexed Stemmer property is not included in this request since the property owners, Bill and Vi Stemmer, did not sign the petition. Staff recommended the Planning Commission initiate the rezoning of this property to the R -1 district. Stamson questioned ifthe Bill and Vi Stemmer property was part of the development? Kansier said it was not. L:\04 FILES\04 PLAN COMMIS\04 pc Minutes\MNO 11204.doc 3
