ADJOURNMENT III Petitioner must be in attendance at the meeting Planning Commission Guidelines for Public Input The Planning Commission is an advisory body, created to advise the City Council on land use. The Planning Commission will recommend Council approval or denial of a land use proposal based upon the Planning Commission's determination of whether the proposed use is permitted under the Zoning Code and the Comprehensive Plan, and whether the proposed use will, or will not, adversely affect the surrounding neighborhood. The Planning Commission holds informal public hearings on land use proposals to enable you to learn, first:'hand, what such proposals are, and to permit you to ask questions and offer comments. Your questions and comments become part of the record and will be used by the Council, along with the Planning Commission's recommendation, in reaching its decision. To aid in your understanding and to facilitate your comments and questions, the Planning Commission will utilize the following procedure: 1. The Planning Commission Chair will introduce the proposal. 2. City staff will outline the proposal and staff's recommendations and answer any questions from the Planning Commission. 3. The petitioner is invited to describe the proposal, make comments on the staff report, and answer questions from the Planning Commission. 4. The chair will open the public hearing, asking first for those who wish to speak to so indicate by raising their hands. The chair may set a time limit for individual questions/comments if a large number of persons have indicated a desire to speak. Spokespersons for groups will have a longer period of time for questions/comments. 5. When recognized by the chair, the person wishing to speak is asked to come forward and to give their full name and address clearly. Remember, your questions/comments are for the record. 6. Direct your questions/comments to the chair. The chair will determine who will answer your questions. 7. No one will be given the opportunity to speak a second time until everyone has had the opportunity to speak initially. Please limit your second presentation to new information, not rebuttal. 8. At the close of the public hearing, the Planning Commission will discuss the proposal and tal<:.e appropriate action. A. If the Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve or deny a request, the planning case will be placed on the City Council agenda for the next regular meeting. Usually this meeting is within one to two weeks of the Planning Commission meeting. B. If the Planning Commission tables the request, the petitioner will be asked to return for the next Commission meeting. Planning Case: Petitioner: Address: Request: PLANNING CASE REPORT City of New Hope Meeting Date: Report Date: July 7,2009 July 2, 2009 09-10 Hanson Family Investments, LLC;Master Transfer 8401 54th Avenue North Conditional Use Permit Amendment I. Request The applicant is requesting an amendment to the existing conditional use permit for additional outdoor storage for commercial HV AC units, boilers and miscellaneous items. There would be no changes to the site other than the additional outdoor storage. II. Zoning Code References 4-30 (c) Administration - General 4-33 (d) Conditional Use Permit Amendment III. Property Specifications Section( s) Zoning: Location: Adjacent Land Uses: Site Area: Building Area: Lot Area Ratios: PlaIming District: Specific Information: Planning Case Report I, industrial The site is the third building east of the intersection of 54th A venue North and Boone Avenue North on the south side of the road. To the immediate east, west and south is industrial, to the northvlest is R-4, high density residential (North Ridge Care Center) aI1d to the north and northeast is R-l, single family residential. 226.8 X 621.0 for 140,984 square feet or 3.24 acres. 5,048 square feet Building area: Paved area: 3.5% 68.66% or 96,797 square feet 27.7% or 39,139 square feet (18,721 square feet comprised of a regional storm water pond Green area: District No.5. The applicant is applying for an amendment to the site's existing conditional use permit to allow for additional outdoor storage for the operation of their businesses. The businesses consist of a mobile crane service and a trucking company. The mobile crane portion of the business consists of ten mobile Page 1 July 7, 2009 cranes and six trucks. The trucking portion of the business consists of 20 trucks and 30 trailers. This proposed use of the site is less intense than the current Master Transfer use of the site. Master operated 19 semi tractors and eight dock trucks on the site plus 33 trailers. Additionally, Master does repair work on their four garbage trucks at this location in addition to service work on private trucks and trailers. The proposed trucking business is over the road and therefore only the excess trailers to tractors will be regularly on site. IV. Background This site was developed in 2005 by Master Transfer for the relocation of their business to New Hope from Crystal. Having outgrown the current site Master is looking to relocate out of the city. Hanson Family Investments, LLC, is looking to relocate their business to New Hope as they are in the process of being displaced by the city of Minneapolis by a bridge reconstruction project. V. Petitioner's Comments "We would like to move our business to this location, but need to provide outside storage to our customers. Our purchase of this building is contingent on this amendment. The list of equipment we will be looking to store outdoors is as follows: III HV AC equipment which includes: air conditioning units, heat exchangers, cooling towers, boilers, condensing units, air to air exchangers. o Wood blocking pieces, which would be used under HV AC units to keep them from freezing onto the ground surface in the winter months. III Wood pallets. III Compressors. o Crane jib sections, rigging and spreader bars (steel beams). III Semi tractors and trailers, and hydro cranes. III We would limit the stacked height of any equipment to 14' high. The area we are looking to store equipment would be to the rear of the building behind the fence, from approximately 30' from the rear of the building to the rear fence of the yard. The area is approximately 78'W X 300'L, which is the area of Options #2 on our diagram. VI. Notification Property owners within 350 feet of the property were notified and staff has not received any comments. VII. Development Analysis A. Zoning Code Criteria Section 4-33 Administration - Conditional Use Permit (d) Conditional use permit amendment. No significant change in size (more than 25 percent of building size), circumstances or scope of operations for a use permitted by an approved conditional use permit shall be undertaken or allowed to remain uncorrected for any significant period of time without approval of an amendment by the city council. Planning Case Report Page 2 July 7, 2009 (1) What circumstances constitute a significant change or changes shall be determined by the city manager or designated agent and may include, but are not limited to, expansion of structures and/or premises or operational modifications that affect the intensity of use. Significant changes in the scope of the approved use may include, but not be limited to, removal or abandonment of any important facility or use, hours of operation, number of employees or increased traffic and like. (2) Holders of a conditional use permit may request an amendment to the permit at any time pursuant to the provisions for application set forth in subsection 4-30(c). ANALYSIS The applicant's proposal for the use of the site is considered a significant change to the Outdoor Storage CUP. The original outdoor storage CUP conditions are as follows: . Storage on the east side of the Property's principle building of no more than six (6) drop-off trailers in designated stalls. . Surfacing of all outdoor storage areas with bituminous or concrete. o Refraining at all times from outdoor storage of any hazardous liquids, solids, gases or wastes. o Use of the outdoor storage area for only trucks and truck trailers, with the Developer acknowledging and agreeing that it will not store other items outdoors unless it first applies for and receives a conditional use permit (CUP) amendment. The applicant's application for a CUP amendment is consistent with the last point of the prior CUP approval requiring application and approval of a CUP amendment prior to storing other materials outdoors. The original CUP agreement did not allow for outdoor storage except for trucks and trailers. The proposal under the CUP amendment will authorize the outdoor storage of trucks, trailers, cranes and materials (per submitted list) storage. B. Development Review Team The Development Review Team met on June 17 to consider a request from Hanson Family Investments, LLC, for a conditional use permit amendment for additional outdoor storage on the site. The applicant would be storing for their customers various HV AC units prior to the eventual installation at the customer's site. There would be no changes to the site other than additional outdoor storage. The Development Review Team offered the following comments: e Provide a list of items to be stored outside. e Limit stacking to 13 feet in height. o Provide details on exact size of storage area. e Staff prefers location Option #2. C. Design and Review Committee The Design and Review Committee met on June 18 and discussed the project with the applicant. The committee discussed Development-Review Team comments but had one modification and that was to allow storage to a maximum height of 14 feet based on the fact that the legal road height limit in Minnesota is 13' 6/1 and with the use of blocking under the product a 14' height would be required. The committee was generally supportive of the application. Planning Case Report Page 3 July 7, 2009 D. Plan Description 1. Zoning Section I, industrial 2. Setbacks (Building Placement) Existing, with no changes planned. 3. Circulation, Access, Traffic and Emergency Vehicle Access Existing, with no changes planned. 4. Curbing, Sidewalk and Pavement Existing, with no changes planned. 5. Parking Due to a reduction of the intensity of use on the site not all of the existing parking would be required. A portion of the excess would be converted into the outdoor storage area. 6. Building Existing, no changes planned. 7. Landscaping and Screening Existing, no changes planned. 8. Lighting Plan Existing, with no changes planned. 9. Signage No application has been submitted. The applicant will have to apply for a sign permit. 10. Utilitv Plan Existing, with no changes planned. 11. Location of Services, Loading, Drive-through, Trash, Equipment and Outdoor Storage Areas Existing with no changes planned except for the increased outdoor storage area. 12. Project Specific Issues This project presented no specific issues. It is compliaI1t with the goals of the city's comprehensive plan goals 1 a. and b. "The City's primary goal is to promote and enhance the industrial land uses within Planning District 5 in a manner that compatibly relates to the surrounding residential areas. To accomplish this, the following recommendations or suggestions are made: a. Future use, improvement, redevelopment and/or expansion of the industrial land uses along 54th Avenue and north of 51st Avenue must continue to take steps to reduce land use compatibility issues with adjoining residential areas through site design, building aesthetics, proper screening and noise mitigation. Planning Case Report Page 4 July 7, 2009 b. The city will work with existing property ovvners and businesses to encourage the continued industrial use of the sites and reinvestment with industrial businesses in District 5, while resolving outstanding land use compatibility issues." E. Design Guideline Compliance The site, building and landscaping are existing and no changes are planned therefore the design guidelines do not apply. F. Planning Considerations City planner comments are incorporated into the report. G. Building Considerations Building official comments are incorporated into the report. H. Legal Considerations City attorney comments are incorporated into the report. 1. Engineering Considerations City engineering comments are incorporated into the report. J. Police Considerations Comments from the Police Department are incorporated into the report. K. Fire Considerations Comments from West Metro Fire-Rescue are incorporated into the report. VIII. Summary Hanson Family Investments, LLC, the applicant, plans to purchase the Master Transfer site at 8401 54th Avenue North and relocate their business from its current Mumeapolis location. The applicant is being displaced by the city of Mirmeapolis for a bridge reconstruction project. The applicant operates a mobile crane service and a trucking company. The mobile crane service primarily is involved in the setting of HV AC equipment at their customer locations. The trucking company is over the road trucking. The sizes of the two companies combined are similar to that of Master Transfer, but with the trucking business largely over the road rather than local cartage, the usage of the site will, therefore, be less intense. The general hours of operation of the business will be between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. IX. Recommendation The Design and Review Committee and staff recommend approval of the conditional use permit amendment with the followu1g two conditions: 1. The height of all stored material shall be limited to a maximum of 14 feet. 2. The area of the outdoor storage shall be as identified in Option #2 submitted by the applicant.

I see the Council Public Hearing is on July 27,2009, is that the date we will know something for sure? We are trying to get a purchase agreement signed on the property, but one of the contingencies to closing will be the CUP Amendment. So I need to have a time frame for closing.

As a result, to comply with the 60-day rule and in this case the extended 60-day rule, it is appropriate for the Planning Commission to pass a motion recommending the City Council deny the CUP application requested by T-Mobile. To comply with the 60-day rule or the extended 60-day rule, a final decision has to be made within the 60 or 120 day window. The application before us would have to be finalized by August 7. Since the City Council will only meet once in July on July 27 and the next meeting is on August 10, the Planning Commission meeting on July 7 is the last opportunity for action on this application. If someone on the Commission will make a motion to deny this application, the issue can be put to rest.
