I. Type of Planning Request A. Variance II. Zoning Code References Section 4-36 Administration — Variances III. Property Specifications Zoning: R-1 Single Family Residential Location: 7821 - 44th Avenue North Adjacent Land Uses: R-1 Single Family Residential to the North, South, East, and West. Site Area: .30 acres Planning District: Planning District 8. The Comprehensive Plan promotes housing maintenance and upgrades by encouraging private reinvestment in single family homes. IV. Background The applicant, Seth Gagnon, is interested in tearing down an existing two -car detached garage in order to accommodate a new three -car detached garage. The applicant has indicated that the current garage has structural issues and needs to be replaced. The owner would like to make the new garage larger than the existing garage in order improve mobility inside the garage and create more storage space. The proposed garage would require a 5 -foot variance for the rear yard setback. The required rear yard setback in the R-1 District is ten feet. The current garage is setback six feet from the rear yard property line and is classified as legally non -conforming. The proposed new garage would have a setback of five feet from the rear property Planning Case Report 15-04 Page 1 4/29/15 line, requiring a five-foot rear yard setback variance. The existing and proposed garage are compliant with all other setbacks. V. Zoning Analysis 1. Setbacks Required 1 Existing Proposed Rear Yard 10' 6' 5' ! 2. Zoning Code Criteria 1. Variance The purpose of a variance is to permit relief from the strict application of the terms of the zoning code. Variances may be granted when they are in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the zoning code, they are consistent with the comprehensive plan and the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical difficulties in complying with the city's zoning code. An application for a variance requires a public hearing. Practical difficulties. As used in connection with granting an application for a variance, practical difficulties means as follows: (a) The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the city's zoning code. Findings. The applicant's proposed use has been found reasonable by staff. Detached garages are permitted uses in the R-1 Zoning District. The proposed garage is on the southwest side of the applicant's property, and the current garage is legally non -conforming in that it sits closer to the rear property line than the Code allows. (b) The plight of the property owner is due to circumstances unique to the property under consideration and not created by the property owner. Findings. The subject property is unique in the following ways: • The lot is a corner lot on a curved street, not at an intersection. The northeast corner of the property follows a gradual curve instead of a distinct angle, as is with most corner lots in the city. This leaves an even smaller space on the opposite side of the home to create a new garage. Planning Case Report 15-04 Page 2 4/29/15 The combination of the aforementioned conditions is not generally applicable to other properties in the same zoning district. These conditions are not created by the property owner. (c) The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality or permit a use not allowed within the respective zoning district. Findings. The variance for a reduced setback from ten to five feet will not alter the essential character of the locality or allow a use not permitted within the R-1 Zoning District. The current garage is located only 6 feet from the rear property line, and locating the proposed garage one foot closer would not alter the established character of the property. The applicant has stated that the construction of this three car garage is only to store vehicles and create additional general storage capacity, and not for a commercial use. (d) The variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent properties, or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of fire or endanger public safety. Findings. The variance is toward a residential house's side yard. There will still be adequate space between the garage and the property owner's home to the west. The variance will not impair light, air, or traffic for surrounding properties. The variance will not increase the danger of fire or endanger public safety. VI. Other Site Issues The uniqueness of the applicant's corner lot, with a gradual slope to the corner rather than a 90=degree intersection, limits the location of where a new garage could safely be placed. The proposed location of the new garage is consistent with the historic use of the property. VII. Design and Review Committee The Design and Review Committee met with the applicant on May 14, 2020. The committee was in favor of the proposed project and variance, and was excited to see an application for reinvestment in New Hope's single-family housing stock. VIII. Approval a. Type of Approval Variance — quasi-judicial b. Timeline 1. Date Application Deemed Complete: May S, 2020 2. End of 60 -Day Decision Period: July 7, 2020 3. End of 120 -Day Decision Period: September 5, 2020 Planning Case Report 15-04 Page 3 4/29/15 IX. Notification Property owners within 500 feet of parcel were notified by mail and a legal notice was published in the SunPost newspaper. Staff has not received any inquiries regarding this development. X. Summary The applicant is proposing to tear down the existing detached garage with failing structure in order to accommodate the construction of a new larger detached garage. The applicant has requested a variance to decrease the rear yard setback to 5 feet in order to accommodate the larger of the desired garage. Staff is in favor of the proposed variance. XI. Recommendation Staff finds that the project is a reasonable request due to the location of the home on the property being setback toward the rear of the property, and the size of the garage being within the allowed square footage. Further, the project will increase the property values in the neighborhood. If the Planning Commission agrees with the findings in favor of the variance, then staff recommends the conditions listed below with the recommendation of approval: 1. No business or home occupation shall be conducted in or around the garage. 2. The garage shall not be used as a living quarters, either temporary or permanent. 3. The area around the garage shall be seeded or sodded prior to the issuing of a certificate of occupancy.

The site is currently occupied by an existing single-family home, a detached garage, and detached gazebo. The applicant wishes to demolish the existing detached garage and construct a new, larger garage in its place. The existing garage is a legal non -conforming structure that sits six feet from rear property line; the new garage would be five feet. Current setbacks are ten feet. The existing and proposed garage are compliant with other setbacks. Attached for Reference: Exhibit A: Site and Building Plan Exhibit B: Site Photos ISSUES ANALYSIS Zoning. The subject site is zoned R-1 Single Family Residential. Within the R-1 district, detached garages are an allowed accessory use. Existing Adjacent Uses. The subject site has existing single-family homes on all sides of the property. The proposed detached garage will be compatible with the neighborhood. Setbacks. The following table illustrates that the accessory garage will meet the required setbacks with the exception of the rear yard setback: Required Pro osed compliant Side Yard (south). 5 feet 5.2 feet Yes Side Yard north 20 feet > 20 feet Yes Rear Yard fwest 10 feet 5.0 feet No* *Condition for which a variance has been requested. Lot Area, Width, and Depth. The subject site is 9,947 square feet in area; and has a lot width of approximately 77 feet. This exceeds the standards for the R-1 district. Easements. The subject site has a five-foot drainage and utility easement along the rear property line. The proposed building will be up to this line. This is subject to further review by the City Engineer and the Public Works Department. Maximum Building Height. The maximum building height for a garage is fifteen feet. The proposed building has a maximum height of 14 feet, 11 % inches at the peak of the roof. The building is compliant in this regard. Building Type and Design. The site plan (Exhibit A) shows the exterior of the building to be finished with vinyl lap siding. While the siding will not match the existing brick home, it will be similar to the existing garage that is scheduled for demolition as part of this project. Site Lighting. The building plans submitted do not show any exterior lighting as part of this project. Parking / Garage Access. The site plan shows that the distance from the garage door to the house is 16 feet. Further, the distance from the garage to the edge of the steps into the house is 11 feet, 1 inch. The garage appears to only be able to fit one vehicle as a result. In discussion with the applicant, he believes that vehicle access is attainable doe to the size of his vehicles and turning radius. While the project meets the building code for separation, staff is recommending a condition of approval that no business be allowed to be conducted in or around the garage. Further, staff is recommending that the garage cannot be used as a living quarters as a condition of approval. Curb Cut Access. The applicant is proposing to use the existing curb cut. No changes to the curb cut are being requested at this time. Landscaping. As a condition of approval, staff is recommending that the disturbed areas around the new garage be seeded or sodded to restore turf prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. 2 Grading and Drainage Plan. The proposed garage will increase hard surfacing on the site minimally as the project includes the removal of an existing garage and parking pad. The grading and drainage is subject to further review by the City Engineer. Variance Criteria. The applicants have applied for a variance to allow a five-foot setback for the construction of a garage at the rear of their property. The required setback for a garage is ten feet. The City of New Hope zoning ordinance outlines the following criteria when considering a variance: (1) That the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the city's zoning code. Staff Comment: Staff feels that the proposed garage. is a reasonable request. Further, the garage will be away from the house at a distance that will meet the Building Code. The expanded garage is in within the size limits allowed by the district. (2) The plight of the property owner is due to circumstances unique to the property under consideration and not created by the property owner. Staff Comment: The shape of the lot creates a backyard area that is difficult to work with and meet the setbacks. The existing garage does not meet the City's current setback standards. These conditions where not created by the property owner. (3) The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality or permit a use not allowed within the respective zoning district. Staff Comment: A detached garage is common in this type of neighborhood. Further, garages are an allowed accessory use in the district. The proposed garage variance is not expected to alter the character of the area. (4) The variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of fire or endanger public safety. Staff Comment: The proposed garage will replace a smaller garage in the same location. The variance request is not expected to impair the supply of light or air or create a public safety issue. (5) Practical difficulties may include but shall not be limited to the following: a. A physical condition unique to the property that results in practical difficulties when using the parcel or lot within the strict application of the terms of this Code. Physical conditions causing practical difficulties may include lot shape, narrowness, shallowness, slope, or topographic or similar conditions unique to the parcel or lot. 3 Staff Comment: The lot shape poses a practical difficulty with the curved corner on the northeast side. The "sweeping" turn limits the location where a garage can be placed on the property without creating a public safety concern. b. Practical difficulties may also include inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Staff Comment: This is not the case with this project. C. Economic conditions alone shall not constitute a practical difficulty if a reasonable use of the property exists under the terms of this Code. Staff Comment. The applicant is seeking to demolish an existing garage and replace it with a larger garage. Economic considerations are not part of the request. d. A practical difficulty shall be unique to the parcel or lot for which the variance is being sought and is not generally applicable to other properties within the same zoning district Staff Comment: The shape of the property is unique to the property and is not found in the immediate area. CONCLUSION In review of the proposed site and building plan dated March 12, 2020, and the findings noted above, staff finds that the project is a reasonable request due to the location of the home on the property being setback toward the rear of the property, and the size of the garage being within the allowed square footage. Further, the project will increase the property values in the neighborhood. Staff recommends the following conditions with approval: 1. No business or home occupation be allowed to be conducted in or around the garage. 2. The garage cannot be used as a living -quarters either temporary or permanent. 3. The area around the garage be seeded or sodded prior to the issuing of a certificate of occupancy. 4. Other conditions from City Staff. 4 PLANNING Resubmitted 5/1/2020 APPLICATION TO PLANNING COMMISSION AND CITY COUNCIL City of New Hope, 4401 Xylon Avenue North, New Hope, MN 55428 Basic Fee Case # Planning Deadline �7i nG Receipt # u Received by . l� f Deposit Land Use Petition Signs(s) tL yws �vl , Name of Applicant: Seth ris(1non Phone: 78'3 -957 -90$5 - Applicant Address 7821 44th _ave N Street Location of Property:- 44th Ave N PID17-118-2 Legal Descripition tion of Property: OWNER OF RECORD: Name: Seth Gagnon IV=- x'•1 1 ►' 1 o mi ► • Home Phone: _ 6Phone: Applicant's nature of Legal or Equitable Interest: Type of Request: (pertaining to what section of City Code) Fax: Variance Please outline Description of Request: (use additional pages if necessary) Why Should Request be Granted: �� a ra( I s fa l l m down and new C1 l C e requires a rear setback of 10 feet which will not allow a 2 car garage that the city requires (attach narrative to application form if necessary) G:\CommDev\PLANNING\MI SC ITEMS\Planning applicalion.doc (01.13) Applicant acknowledges that before this request can be considered and/or approved, all fees, including the basic zoning fee and any zoning deposits (as outlined in the attached application materials) must be paid to the city, There are three city consultants — legal, planning, and engineering - that generate additional expenses.

Type of Planning Request 1. Conditional Use Permit 2. Site Plan Review 3. Variance II. Zoning Code References Sections: 4-33 Administration — Conditional Use Permit 4-35 Administration — Site Plan Review 4-36 Administration — Variances III. Property Specifications Zoning: I — Industrial Location: 3101 Louisiana Avenue North Adjacent Land Uses: North: I — Industrial (New Hope) West: I — Industrial (New Hope) South: I — Industrial (New Hope) East: Single-family residential (Crystal) Site Area: 2.01 acres Planning District: Planning District 15N. The Comprehensive Plan supports in-place expansion and private reinvestment into industrial sites within the district. IV. Background Furniture Industries Inc. submitted an application for a site plan review for the expansion of their building located at 3101 Louisiana Avenue North. The 15,000 -square foot expansion would enlarge their existing Planning Case Report 20-06 Page 1 5/29/20 building to the west to allow for additional office and warehouse space. The business is growing and in need of the additional space in order to continue operations in the New Hope. Furniture Industries occupies a 2.01 -acre lot, which is located within the Industrial zoning district. The proposed expansion would require the approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and two variances. The CUP would allow for the placement of a loading bay fronting a public street. The variances would allow for a reduction of the rear yard setback requirement for the principal building and a reduction to the required curb cut setback from the public street at the intersection of Louisiana and 31st avenues. V. Zoning Analysis A. Plan Description 1. Setbacks The table below illustrates setback requirements for the principal building. The existing building does not meet the required front yard setback of 30 feet. This is an existing legal non -conforming condition that would not be expanded upon as part of the proposed project. The proposed expansion would enlarge the building to the west, placing the footprint 10 feet from the rear yard property line. City Code requires a 30 -foot rear yard setback, thus necessitation of a variance. The property abuts a wetland on an industrial -zoned property to the west. The wetland serves as a buffer between the two properties. 2. Parking The proposed expansion would involve modifications to the existing parking area along the southwest and west sides of the parcel (30 stalls) and installation of a new parking lot at the southeast corner of the parcel (22 stalls). The 52 parking stalls, including two disability stalls, exceed the minimum requirement of 47 parking stalls with the expansion. The new parking lot at the southeast corner of the parcel abuts single-family residential homes to the east. Landscaping is required at the perimeter of the parking lots in order to screen headlights. The applicant is proposing 18 -foot -deep stalls for the site. City Code requires a 19 -foot depth or 18 -foot depth with City Council approval and the submission of a snow removal and storage plan. The snow storage plan submitted by the applicant indicates where snow storage will take place on the property. Planning Case Report 20-06 Page 2 5/29/20 Required Proposed Compliant Front Yard - East 30 feet 27 feet No (Existing, legal non -conforming) Side Yard Interior - 10 feet 10 feet Yes North Side Yard Corner - 30 feet 40 feet Yes South Rear Yard - West 30 feet 10 feet No (Proposed, variance needed) 2. Parking The proposed expansion would involve modifications to the existing parking area along the southwest and west sides of the parcel (30 stalls) and installation of a new parking lot at the southeast corner of the parcel (22 stalls). The 52 parking stalls, including two disability stalls, exceed the minimum requirement of 47 parking stalls with the expansion. The new parking lot at the southeast corner of the parcel abuts single-family residential homes to the east. Landscaping is required at the perimeter of the parking lots in order to screen headlights. The applicant is proposing 18 -foot -deep stalls for the site. City Code requires a 19 -foot depth or 18 -foot depth with City Council approval and the submission of a snow removal and storage plan. The snow storage plan submitted by the applicant indicates where snow storage will take place on the property. Planning Case Report 20-06 Page 2 5/29/20 3. Curb Cuts The applicant is proposing to move and enlarge the existing curb cut along 31st Avenue North to the west. The proposed curb cut is shown at a width of 32 feet, which is allowed with approval from the city engineer. The applicant is also proposing a new 24 -foot -wide curb cut for the new parking area at the southwest corner of the parcel. A variance is required to allow for a reduction to the required curb cut setback from the public street at the intersection of Louisiana and 31st avenues. The applicant is proposing a 25 -foot setback, whereas a 40 -foot setback is required. This appears to be the only viable option for accommodating the proposed parking lot. 4. Hard Surface Coverage The Industrial zoning district allows for a maximum of 80% impervious surface coverage. With the building addition and new parking lot, the applicant's code review indicates the site will be at 78.5% impervious surface coverage after completion of the project. 5. Loading The building expansion would involve the construction of two new loading bays. A third loading bay was eliminated and parking stalls were adjusted following recommendations from the Design and Review Committee. This meets the city's requirements for number of loading bays; however, a CUP is required to allow loading bays in a side yard abutting a street. The loading bays would abut 31st Avenue North, which leads to a cul-de-sac and faces the parking lot of an industrial building. The applicant has submitted a turning radius diagram that shows how semi -trucks would access the property and loading bays. The location and design of the loading area appear to meet the conditional use performance standards. 6. Easement Access The site and building plans show an existing overhead garage door on the north side of the building. The plans indicate that the property will be regraded and a paved access to this garage door will be installed (the current garage door is above grade and not accessible from the outside). The applicant has provided a letter from the property owner to the north (3109 Louisiana Avenue North) granting permission to access the garage door on a temporary basis from the neighboring property. 7. Building Design The architectural drawings show that the expansion will match the existing building in color and material. The existing material is painted block. Exterior finishes of the building are generally consistent with New Hope's Design Guidelines for industrial buildings. Any outdoor mechanical equipment shall be identified on building plans and must meet screening requirements specified in Section 4-3(b)(5)c. of the City Code. Planning Case Report 20-06 Page 3 5/29/20 S. Trash Enclosure The applicant has submitted a narrative explaining that all trash will be stored inside of the building, therefore a trash enclosure is not required. All trash handling equipment must be stored inside the principal building except for on pickup days. 9. Landscaping The applicant has proposed several trees and shrubs along the east side of the parking lot at the southeast corner of the parcel, which abuts single-family residential homes. The parking lot would be fully screened from the residential area to the east. The parking area along the southwest and west sides of the parcel would be partially screened with new and existing trees and new shrubs. The Purple Sand Cherry on the south side of the parking area should be spread along the entire length of the parking lot. If two -gallon pots are used, it is recommended that the planted material be spread at four feet on center for a total of 31 plants along the parking lot. The landscaping plan notes five trees on the west side of the property to be preserved. The construction of the new building and parking lot would come within a few feet of these trees. A tree preservation plan is required in order to ensure that these trees will survive the impact of construction. Further, a plan for replacement will be necessary if the trees do not survive. 10. Snow storage The applicant states snow storage will take place on the property until no more space allows, at which point it will be hauled off site. The snow storage plan indicates where the snow storage will take place on the property. Snow storage may not interfere with parking or planting areas. 11. Lighting The applicant provided a lighting plan that shows 11 lighting fixtures attached to the building at a height of 12 feet. The lights are primarily around door areas of the building. The fixtures would be aimed downward to prevent light pollution of adjacent properties. There are two light fixtures on the east side of the building that face residential homes to the east that would be screened by existing trees. 12. Grading, Drainage & Wetland The new building appears to be located over existing hard cover within the site; however, the applicant's soil testing report suggests that the proposed building expansion is over poor soils and high-water table areas. This effects the construction techniques in this area as well as issues related to site grading and drainage. The parcel immediately abuts a wetland along Planning Case Report 20-06 Page 4 5/29/20 its western lot line. The grading and stormwater plans are subject to the review and approval of the city engineer and must address the following: • Wetland protection; both during and after building construction. • Storm water drainage toward the wetland. • Restoration of any part of the wetland disturbed by site development. • Protection of the significant trees along the west lot line. Plans submitted show the westerly curb and gutter being removed and the building being set back ten feet from the property line. The area will be heavily sloped downward to the wetland area. The applicant must provide a restoration plan that shows how this area will handle stormwater after construction and is subject to further review by the city engineer. B. Zoning Code Criteria I. Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Criteria for decision. The Planning Commission and City Council shall consider the possible adverse effects of the proposed conditional use. In determining whether to approve or deny a Conditional Use Permit, the City Council and Planning Commission shall find that the Conditional Use Permit complies with the following criteria. The burden of proof demonstrating compliance with the following criteria shall be the responsibility of the applicant. (1) Comprehensive Plan. The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies and provisions of and has been found to be consistent with the official comprehensive municipal plan of the city. Findings. The proposal is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan, which supports in-place expansion and private reinvestment into industrial sites within the district. (2) Compatibility. The proposed use is compatible with adjacent present and future anticipated land uses. Findings. The proposed use of the building and site are consistent with allowable uses in the Industrial zoning district. The parcel abuts industrial uses to the north, west, and south, and single-family residential to the east. Industrial properties in the area were developed in the early 1980's and have coexisted with the residential properties to the east since that time. (3) Performance standards. The proposed use conforms to all applicable performance standards outlined in the Zoning Code. Findings. A CUP is required for loading bays for nonresidential uses located at the front of the building or at the side of the building on a corner lot. The proposed loading bays do not conflict with pedestrian movement and do not obstruct access or the view of the public right-of-way from off-street parking access. They are located at least 50 feet from the intersection, surfaced appropriately, and will be screened in conjunction with the parking lot. Variances are required for a reduction of the rear Planning Case Report 20-06 Page 5 5/29/20 yard setback requirement for the principal building and a reduction to the required curb cut setback from the public street at the intersection of Louisiana and 31st avenues. (4) No depreciation in value. The proposed use will not tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is proposed. Findings. The proposed expansion will not depreciate the area's value. The proposed expansion is unobtrusive to the area and fits well in the industrial setting. (5) Zoning district criteria. In addition to the above general criteria, the proposed use meets the criteria specified for the various zoning districts. Findings. The proposed use complies with all other zoning district criteria. (6) In industrial districts (BW, I): a. Nuisance. Nuisance characteristics generated by the use will not have an adverse effect upon existing and future development in adjacent areas. Findings. Staff concludes that the proposed use will not generate nuisance characteristics because of the low impact that the use will have on the surrounding area. b. Economic return. The use will provide an economic return to the community and be commensurate with other industrial uses for which the property could feasible be used. In considering the economic return to the community, the planning commission and city council may give weight to the sociological impact of a proposed use, both positive and negative. Findings. Staff anticipates a positive economic return to the community with the proposed use of the site and building. The applicant's proposal will allow the city to retain an industrial business through in-place expansion. II. Site Plan Review Criteria. In making recommendations and decisions upon site and building plan review applications, the staff, Planning Commission, and City Council shall consider the compliance of such plans with the following standards: (1) Consistency with the various elements and objectives of the city's long-range plans, including, but not limited to, the Comprehensive Plan. Findings. The proposal is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan, which supports in-place expansion and private reinvestment into industrial sites within the district. The proposed expansion will allow a growing business in need of additional space the opportunity to continue operating in the New Hope. The appearance of the proposed building complies with the city's Design Guidelines. (2) Consistency with the purposes of this Code. Findings.. The proposal requires two variances in order to allow for a reduction of the rear yard setback requirement for the principal building and a reduction to the Planning Case Report 20-06 Page 6 5/29/20 required curb cut setback from the public street at the intersection of Louisiana and 31st avenues. Aside from those requests, the proposal is generally consistent with the purposes of the City Code, meeting all other minimum requirements. (3) Preservation of the site in its natural state, insofar as practicable, by minimizing tree and soil removal, and designing any grade changes so as to be in keeping with the general appearance of neighboring developed or developing areas. Findings. The proposed improvements are subject to review and approval by the city forester and must address wetland protection, storm water drainage toward the wetland, restoration of any part of the wetland that is disturbed by site development, and the protection of significant trees along the west lot line. (4) Creation of a harmonious relationship of buildings and open spaces with the terrain and with existing and future buildings having a visual relationship to the proposed development. Findings. Staff believes the proposal for site and building improvements is adequate and will be of a harmonious nature. The proposed expansion may not disturb the existing wetland to the west of the property. (5) Creation of a functional and harmonious design for structures and site features. a. Creation of an internal sense of order for the various functions and buildings on the site and provision of a desirable environment for occupants, visitors, and the general community. Findings. Staff finds that the applicant has created a good internal sense of order on the site. The proposed site plan delivers a desirable environment for occupants, visitors and the general community. b. Appropriateness of the amount and arrangement of open space and landscaping to the design and function of the development. Findings. The arrangement and amount of open space and landscaping are appropriate given the design and function of the proposed development. c. Appropriateness of the materials, textures, colors, and details of construction as an expression of the design concept of the project and the compatibility of the same with the adjacent and neighboring structures and functions. Findings. Staff finds the proposed building materials, textures, and construction details to be appropriate and compatible with neighboring structures. d. Adequacy of vehicular, cycling and pedestrian circulation, including walkways, interior drives and parking, in terms of location and number of access points to the public streets, width of interior drives and access points, general interior circulation, separation of pedestrian, cycling and vehicular traffic and arrangement and amount of parking so as to be safe, convenient and, insofar as practicable, compatible with the design of proposed buildings, structures and neighboring properties. Planning Case Report 20-06 Page 7 5/29/20 Findings. Adequate pedestrian and vehicular access has been provided. According to the applicant, semitrailers occupying the first loading bay will only be in place for a short period of time. The impacted parking spaces to the west would only be occupied by employees of the business. (6) Creation of an energy -conserving design through design, location, orientation and elevation of structures, the use and location of glass in structures, and the use of landscape materials and site grading. Findings. The proposed improvements reinvest into an existing building, utilizing modern building materials and technologies to maximize energy conservation. The expansion will meet all current building code standards that relate to energy efficiency. (7) Protection of adjacent and neighboring properties through reasonable provisions for such matters as surface water drainage, sound and sight buffers, preservation of views, light and air, and those aspects of design, not adequately covered by other regulations, which may have substantial effects on neighboring land uses. Findings. The proposed project will not interfere with the views or limit access to light and air of adjacent properties. It is not anticipated that the project will have an adverse effect on adjacent properties. III. Variances The purpose of a variance is to permit relief from the strict application of the terms of the zoning code. Variances may be granted when they are in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the zoning code, they are consistent with the comprehensive plan, and the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical difficulties in complying with the city's zoning code. An application for a variance requires a public hearing. Practical difficulties. As used in connection with granting an application for a variance, practical difficulties means as follows: (1) The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the city's zoning code. Findings. The proposed use is allowed in the Industrial zoning district and represents a reasonable use of the site. The Comprehensive Plan supports in-place expansion and private reinvestment into industrial sites within the district. The required setback for a rear yard in the Industrial zoning district is 30 feet. The applicant is requesting a setback of 10 feet. The west property line abuts industrial property and a wetland. The request is reasonable in this regard, as adjacent properties will not be affected by the reduced setback. The new parking lot proposed at the northeast corner of the property meets the city's requirements relating to parking spaces. There are no concerns about the location of the curb cut as this is a low-volume intersection and relatively small parking lot. (2) The plight of the property owner is due to circumstances unique to the property under consideration and not created by the property owner. Planning Case Report 20-06 Page 8 5/29/20 Findings. The applicant is proposing to expand their business using their current location. The size of the lot is not due to conditions created by the property owner. Further, a business expanding in place is a scenario that the city supports. The applicant could reduce the size of its expansion in order to meet setback requirements; however, the size of the proposed warehouse is necessary in order to meet operational needs of the business. The configuration and placement of the existing building and minimum parking requirements necessitate the installation of a second parking lot. Only one area remains to construct the additional parking. The applicant is proposing a 25 -foot setback, whereas a 40 -foot setback is required. This appears to be the only viable option for accommodating the proposed parking lot. (3) The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality or permit a use not allowed within the respective zoning district. Findings. The site is surrounded by other industrial uses to the north, west, and south, and single-family residential to the east. The proposed expansion is toward the west and abuts a wetland that serves as a natural barrier that provides separation between the two properties. The reduced rear yard setback will not have a negative impact on the adjoining property to the west. With parking lot screening and lighting standards being met, the new parking lot will not alter the character of the area. (4) The variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent properties, or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of fire or endanger public safety. Findings. The nearest building in the area is more than 100 feet away (to the north). In addition, the building expansion is for warehousing. No impact on adjacent properties or public streets is expected as a result of the expansion. The requested variance will not present issues associated with increased traffic congestion, increased fire danger, or endanger public safety. The city has the street and utility capacity to accommodate the expanded industry. C. Design 8z Review Committee The Design and Review Committee met on May 14, 2020, to review and discuss the application. The committee was supportive of the request for the CUP, site plan review, and two variances. D. Aug 1. Type of Approval L Conditional Use Permit — quasi-judicial ii.

End of 60 -Day Decision Period: July 7, 2020 iii. End of 120 -Day Decision Period: September 5, 2020 VI. Notification Property owners within 500 feet of parcel were notified by mail, a land use petition signs was placed on the property, and a legal notice was published in the SunPost newspaper and on the city's website. Staff heard from one resident who expressed concern about the size of the project and plans to speak at the public hearing. VII. Summary Furniture Industries Inc. is requesting a site plan review for a 15,000 -square foot warehouse expansion at 3101 Louisiana Avenue North. The business is growing and in need of the additional space in order to continue operations in the New Hope. The proposed expansion to the west would require the approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and two variances. The CUP would allow for the placement of a loading bay fronting a public street. The variances would allow for a reduction of the rear yard setback requirement for the principal building and a reduction to the required curb cut setback from the public street at the intersection of Louisiana and 31st avenues. VIII. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Planning Commission conduct a public hearing and approve a site plan review for the expansion of the building located 3101 Louisiana Avenue North. Staff also recommends approval of a CUP allowing for the placement of a loading bay fronting a public street and two variances allowing for the reduction of the rear yard setback requirement for the principal building and a reduction to the required curb cut setback from the public street at the intersection of Louisiana and 31st avenues, subject to the following conditions of approval: 1. Any outdoor mechanical equipment shall be identified on building plans and shall meet screening requirements specified in Section 4-3(b)(5)c. of the City Code. 2. With the exception of trash pickup day, trash -handling equipment shall be stored inside principal building. 3. Landscaping along south property line adjacent to parking lot shall be spread out for entire length of parking lot. 4. Tree preservation plan shall be submitted in order to ensure five trees on west side of the property will survive impact of construction. Replacement plan shall be submitted if trees do not survive. 5. Grading, drainage, storm water management, and wetland delineation, protection, and restoration plans shall be subject to review and final approval by the City Engineer and Stormwater Specialist. 6. Applicant shall provide record plans or as -built drawings to the city following project completion.

The applicants intend to construct a building expansion on the rear (west) side of their existing building. The site is located at 3101 Louisiana Avenue North. The proposed site plan is for the expansion of warehousing. Furniture Industries occupies a 2.01 acre lot which is zoned "I "Industrial. Within the Industrial zoning district, office space and warehousing are permitted uses. The site is abutting Industrial uses to the north, south, and west. Single Family homes are located to the east of Louisiana Avenue (in the City of Crystal). The project will require the following: • Building and site plan review. • Variance to encroach into the required rear yard setback. • Variance to locate a curb cut within the setback from an intersection. • Variance to allow a curb cut width greater than 32 feet. • A conditional use permit to allow loading bays in a side yard adjacent to a public street. ISSUES ANALYSIS Uses. The building layout illustrates that the building and the new building expansion will be used for office and warehousing. These uses are permitted uses in the Industrial District. Lot Area and Width. The existing lot is 2.01 acres in area and 250 feet in width. This exceeds the I district standards. Building Layout. The applicant has submitted a building floor plan which shows that the new expansion will be used for warehousing space. The applicants have submitted the existing floor plans which show office space, and existing warehousing. These are permitted uses in the district. Building Setbacks. Review of the site plan reveals the following setbacks. Setback Required Front Yard (east) 30 feet Side Yard Interior (north) 10 feet Side Yard Corner (south) 30 feet Rear Yard (west) 30 feet Proposed Compliance 27 feet No* 10 feet Yes 40 feet Yes 10 feet No** * The current building does not meet the required front yard setback of 30 feet. This is an existing legal non -conforming condition and is a grandfathered condition. ** The new expansion is proposing a 10 -foot setback from the west lot line. The applicant is requesting a setback variance to allow this condition. Parking. The site plan shows two separate parking lots for this site. One lot with have parking stalls 18 feet deep with a 30 -foot -wide drive aisle; and a second lot will have 18 -foot -deep stalls and a 24 -foot -wide drive aisle. City code requires a 19 -foot depth or 18 -foot depth with City Council approval and the submission of a snow removal and storage plan. The applicants have opted for a snow removal / storage plan, this is discussed later in this report. By code, the site will require 47 parking stalls. The site plan shows 52 stalls including two disability stalls. This meets the City's requirements for parking. Curb Cuts. In review of the site plan the following issues arise. The eastern most curb cut does not meet the required 40 -foot setback from the intersection of two public streets. The applicants have applied for a variance from this condition. This is discussed later in this report. The width of the western curb cut is 40 feet at the lot line. Curb cuts may be up to 32 feet in width with City Staff approval. The applicants are applying for a variance from this condition. This is discussed later in this report. Off Street Loading. The building expansion will have two new loading bays and one overhead door to replace the existing loading bays. This meets the City's requirements for number of loading bays. However, a conditional use permit is required for loading bays to be located on a side yard abutting a street. 2 All access and egress to the loading area must occur on-site. Using the public street for maneuvering or backing into the site is prohibited. The applicants have submitted a semi - truck turning radius that shows how semi -trucks will access the property and loading bays. It should be noted that the parking lot layout has been adjusted to address the preliminary truck movement concerns raised by City Staff. The current design is acceptable. Conditional Use Permit. The applicants have requested a conditional use permit to allow loading bays on the side of the building adjacent to a public street (as opposed to the rear of a building). The zoning ordinance outlines the following criteria for a conditional use permit and loading bays on the side of a building: Pedestrians. Loading berths shall not conflict with pedestrian movement. Staff Comment: The area in question does not have sidewalks. Further, the street in question is a cul-de-sac, Therefore, there should not be significant pedestrian traffic in this area. Staff feels that pedestrian traffic will not be a concern. 2. Visibility. Loading berths shall not obstruct the view of the public right-of-way from off- street parking access. Staff Comment: The off-street parking access will share the same curb -cut; however, access is not expected to be in conflict. 3. General compliance. Loading berths shall comply with all other requirements of this section. Staff Comment: In review of the loading berths and truck traffic turnaround, Staff feels the applicant is compliant in this regard. Easement Access. The site and building plans show an existing overhead garage door on the north side of the building. The plans show that the property will be regraded and a paved access to this garage door will be installed (the current garage door is above grade and not accessible from the outside). An access agreement with the property to the north must be provided to demonstrate that the applicant has the permission or right to access the garage door from the neighboring property. This will be a condition of approval. Building Design. The architectural drawings show that the building expansion will match the existing building in color and material. The existing material is painted block. Exterior finishes of the building are generally consistent with New Hope's Design Guidelines for industrial buildings. The applicant shall show the location and screening of any ground mounted or rooftop mechanical equipment with the building expansion. Landscaping. The applicants have submitted a landscaping plan dated May 5, 2020. A screened / hedge is required along 31 st Avenue North and Louisiana Avenue North to screen the parking lot areas from the public right-of-way. The plantings on the east side appear to meet this requirement. However, the Purple Sand Cherry on the south side should be spread along the entire length of the parking lot instead of "clumped" in two areas. If two -gallon pots 3 are used, the planted material should be spread at four feet on center for a total of 31 plants along the parking lot. The current plan utilizes 15 shrubs, therefore, 16 should be added. Tree Preservation / Replacement Plan. The landscaping plan notes five trees on the west side of the property to be preserved. The construction of the new building and parking lot will come within a few feet of these trees. A tree preservation plan will be necessary in order to ensure that these trees will survive the impact of construction. Further, a plan for replacement will be necessary if the trees do not survive. This will be a condition of approval. It should be noted that the City's replacement ratio is one inch to 1/2 inch. Snow Storage. The applicants have submitted a narrative that states snow storage is used on the property until no more space allows, at which point the snow is hauled offsite. The applicants note in their narrative that no parking spaces are used for snow storage. As a condition of approval, the site plan shall be updated to show where the snow storage will take place on the property. The snow storage areas must not interfere with planting areas. Trash Enclosure. The site plan does not show an exterior trash enclosure. The applicants have submitted a narrative that states that all trash handling will be done inside the building. This meets the requirements for trash handling. As a condition of approval, all trash handling equipment shall be stored inside the principal building except for the day of pickup. Grading and Drainage. The applicants have submitted updated civil plans dated May 26, 2020. These plans are subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. West Property Line / Wetland Area. The proposed site and building plan show that the west side's curb and gutter will be removed and the building will be setback ten feet from the property line. The area will be heavily sloped down to the wetland area. The applicants have provided a restoration plan that shows this area will be seeded. The proximity of the building to the wetland; the wetland impact; and the wetland buffer shall be subject to further review and approval by the City Engineer and the Watershed District. Lighting plan. The applicants have provided a lighting plan that shows 11 lighting fixtures attached to the building at a height of 12 feet. The lights are primarily around door areas of the building. The fixtures will be aimed downward to prevent light pollution of adjacent properties. There are two light fixtures on the east side of the building that face residential homes to the east. These lights will be screened by existing trees and are not expected to be an issue. Variance Criteria. The applicants have applied for a variance from the rear yard setback; the curb cut distance from an intersection; and the width of a curb cut. Staff has evaluated each of these against the City's zoning ordinance and has provided comment below: Setback Variances. The applicants are seeking a variance from the rear yard setback (west) side of the property. Staff offers the following comments: (1) That the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the city's zoning code. 4 Staff Comment: The required setback for a rear yard in the Industrial district is 30 feet. The applicants are requesting a setback of 10 feet. The property line in question (west side) abuts industrial zoning and a wetland. The request is reasonable in this regard as adjacent properties will not be affected by the reduced setback. In place expansion of existing businesses is a stated goal of the New Hope Comprehensive Plan. - The application of a variance is consistent with the recommendation of the New Hope Comprehensive Plan. (2) The plight of the property owner is due to circumstances unique to the property under consideration and not created by the property owner. Staff Comment: The applicants are proposing to expand their business using their current location. The size of the lot is not due to conditions created by the property owner. Further, a business expanding in place is a scenario that the City supports. (3) The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality or permit a use not allowed within the respective zoning district. Staff Comment: The building expansion is separated from adjoining properties. The building expansion is consistent with industrial uses in the surrounding area. (4) The variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of fire or endanger public safety. Staff Comment: The next closest building in the area is over 100 feet away (to the north). In addition, the building expansion is for warehousing. No impact on adjacent properties or public streets is expected as a result of this project. (5) Practical difficulties may include but shall not be limited to the following: a. A physical condition unique to the property that results in practical difficulties when using the parcel or lot within the strict application of the terms of this Code. Physical conditions causing practical difficulties may include lot shape, narrowness, shallowness, slope, or topographic or similar conditions unique to the parcel or lot. Staff Comment: The lot is relatively small compared to some other industrial sites in the immediate area. Staff believes that this is a practical difficulty. b. Practical difficulties may also include inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Staff Comment: This will not be the case for this project. 5 C. Economic conditions alone shall not constitute a practical difficulty if a reasonable use of the property exists under the terms of this Code. Staff Comment: The applicants are seeking a variance to expand their business. Economic conditions are not the sole reason for the variance request. d. A practical difficulty shall be unique to the parcel or lot for which the variance is being sought and is not generally applicable to other properties within the same zoning district Staff Comment: In this case, the variance is necessary to accommodate the building expansion at the location where the business already exists. Curb Cut Variance from Intersection. In addition to the setback variances, the applicants are seeking a curb cut variance to allow a curb cut that does not meet the setback from the intersection of Louisiana Avenue North and 31 st Avenue North. The following is an analysis of the variance criteria against the curb cut request: (1) That the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the city's zoning code. Staff Comment: The applicant is seeking to construct a new parking lot at the northeast corner of the property. The new parking lot is necessary to meet the City's parking requirement for parking spaces. The lot will contain 22 parking spaces. City Staff is not concerned with the proposed location of the curb cut as this is a low volume intersection and a relatively small parking lot. (2) The plight of the property owner is due to circumstances unique to the property under consideration and not created by the property owner. Staff Comment. With the expansion of the building, the property only has one area left to construct the additional parking spaces required. This is not due to circumstances created by the owner. (3) The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality or permit a use not allowed within the respective zoning district. Staff Comment: With parking lot screening and lighting standards being met, this variance will not alter the character of the area. (4) The variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of fire or endanger public safety. Staff Comment. This is not expected to be a concern with this project. (5) Practical difficulties may include but shall not be limited to the following: 101 a. A physical condition unique to the property that results in practical difficulties when using the parcel or lot within the strict application of the terms of this Code. Physical conditions causing practical difficulties may include lot shape, narrowness, shallowness, slope, or topographic or similar conditions unique to the parcel or lot. Staff Comment: As noted earlier in this report, this is the only location available that can accommodate the additional parking stalls. b. Practical difficulties may also include inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Staff Comment: This is not the case. C. Economic conditions alone shall not constitute a practical difficulty if a reasonable use of the property exists under the terms of this Code. Staff Comment: This is not the case. d. A practical difficulty shall be unique to the parcel or lot for which the variance is being sought and is not generally applicable to other properties within the same zoning district Staff Comment: The practical difficulty is unique with the smaller parcel size that the business is currently located on. Curb Cut Width Variance. By Code, a curb cut for an industrial property is limited to 26 feet in width, or 32 with City Staff approval. The applicants have applied for a variance to allow a curb cut with of 35 feet, 6 inches. The following is an analysis of the request against the City's variance criteria: (1) That the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the city's zoning code. Staff Comment: The purpose of the wide curb cut is to accommodate the loading bays and truck traffic in and out of the property. The trucks entering the property are expected to use the parking lot area to turn around and back into the loading bays. Further, in order for trucks to leave the property, a wider curb cut is necessary to accommodate a truck using the loading bay on the west side. (2) The plight of the property owner is due to circumstances unique to the property under consideration and not created by the property owner. Staff Comment: After the building expansion is complete, this is the only area that will accommodate loading bays. The wide curb cut that is needed is not the result of conditions created by the property owner. 7 (3) The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality or permit a use not allowed within the respective zoning district. Staff Comment: Staff feels it is not unreasonable to have a larger curb cut at an Industrial property. Therefore, the curb cut will not alter the essential character of the area. (4) The variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of fire or endanger public safety. Staff Comment: This is not the case with this request. (5) Practical difficulties may include but shall not be limited to the following: a. A physical condition unique to the property that results in practical difficulties when using the parcel or lot within the strict application of the terms of this Code. Physical conditions causing practical difficulties may include lot shape, narrowness, shallowness, slope, or topographic or similar conditions unique to the parcel or lot. Staff Comment: With the building expansion, there is no room for loading bays on the rear of the building and therefore, the loading bays must be on the side of the property. At the same time, the existing curb cut will need to be expanded to accommodate the loading bay traffic. b. Practical difficulties may also include inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Staff Comment: This is not the case. C. Economic conditions alone shall not constitute a practical difficulty if a reasonable use of the property exists under the terms of this Code. Staff Comment: Staff feels that this request is not economically motivated as the existing curb cut is being demolished and replaced with a larger one. d. A practical difficulty shall be unique to the parcel or lot for which the variance is being sought and is not generally applicable to other properties within the same zoning district Staff Comment: The practical difficulty is due to the small size of the lot and is not applicable to other properties within the area. Variance Findings. In considering the criteria for variances needed to implement this building expansion, staff has made the following findings: 0 • The City Comprehensive plan promotes the in-place expansion of New Hope's industries. • The proposed use is allowed in the I zoning district and represents a reasonable use of the site. • The reduced rear yard setback will not have a negative impact on the adjoining property to the west. The existing wetland presents a natural barrier that provides separation between the two properties. • The building expansion on the west side of the lot provides separation and screening from the residential uses located east of Louisiana Avenue North. • The city has the street and utility capacity to accommodate the expanded industry. RECOMMENDATION In review of the plans submitted, staff recommends approval of the plans with the following conditions: The City Council approves the parking lot width of eighteen (18) feet with a snow storage / removal plan. The site plan shall be updated to show where the snow storage will take place on the property. 2. An access agreement with the property to the north shall be submitted to demonstrate that the applicant can access the existing overhead door from the neighboring property. 3. The Purple Sand Cherry on the south side should be spread along the entire length of the parking lot. If two -gallon pots are used, the planted material should be spread at four feet on center for a total of 31 plants along the parking lot. 4. A tree preservation plan shall be submitted in order to ensure that the five (5) trees on the west side of the property will survive the impact of construction. In addition, a plan for replacement shall be submitted if the trees do not survive. Said replacement shall meet the City's replacement requirements for trees. 5. The applicant shall show the location and screening of any ground mounted or rooftop mechanical equipment with the building expansion. 6. All trash handling equipment shall be stored inside the principal building except for the day of pickup. 7. Other comments and conditions from City Staff. E 1 Stantec Consulting Services Inc.

The following are our comments and/or recommendations. General Comments 1. The civil drawing sheets are still showing three (3) loading docks. Reduce the number down to two (2) to match the architectural plans. 2. Show the "No Parking" areas on the west parking lot on the civil drawing sheets. 3. Refer to the City Planner's comments on the maximum width of the west parking lot entrance and show that width on all civil drawing sheets. Sheet C 1.I Grading Plan 4. A wetland delineation still needs to be provided based on the design contours shown on the west side of the new building. It is our understanding a delineation is scheduled for the week of June 1, 2020. Once we receive the delineation and the applicant addresses the grading comments below, we can review if there are any impacts to the wetland from the proposed work. a. Provide as -built elevations on the existing curb and gutter along the west side of the parking lot for reference in reviewing wetland impacts. 5. Add the scale to the drawing legend. 6. Show the 910 -design contour on the west side of the property. 7. Based on design spot elevations on the west side of the new west parking lot, some design contours are missing. Please add the design contour information in this area. 8. Based on design spot elevations on the east parking lot, some design contours are missing. Please add the design contours. Also add spot elevations on the west side of the east parking lot to confirm drainage. Design with community in mind May 28, 2020 Mr. Jeff Sargent Page 2 of 3 9. Label emergency overflows with elevations (EOFs) to the east parking lot to indicate where stormwater will be conveyed in the event the storm sewer system is full. Sheet C2.1 Erosion Control Plan 10. Riprap or piping will be needed between the sump manhole SAFL Baffle structures and the wetland. Storm Water Management Comments and Sheet C3.1 Utility Plan 11. Add the sump manhole SAFL Baffle structures to the utility plans. 12. Because the soil borings show the existing soils are a Hydrologic Soil Group (HSG) D, infiltration is prohibited and filtration with a draintile is required. Draintile should be added for filtration purposes to the proposed underground chamber in the east parking lot. 13. CB#2 should be constructed with a storm manhole casting (thus called ST#2) to prevent storm water from entering and bypassing the treatment of the underground chamber. 14. Storm sewer from the underground chamber should, in general, be routed within the property and then perpendicular to the street before connecting to the existing city storm sewer.

Mr. Jeff Alger, Community Development Specialist, gave background information on the case. A Davis Distillery would produce beverage - grade spirits in small quantities and serve as mixed drinks in the cocktail room. The cocktail room would be open to the public approximately 30 hours per week. The distilling portion of the business would operate Mondays and Tuesdays and would not be open to the public. The cocktail room would be open Wednesday through Sunday afternoon and evenings, with Sundays primarily reserved for events. The business would not serve food, although patrons could order food from local restaurants. Food trucks may be utilized in the future. Alger then reviewed the licenses and permits required for a microdistillery and cocktail room. There are state and federal licenses/permits that are required. Before those can be applied for, all approvals at the city level must be in place. There are three city -issued liquor licenses required for the distillery and cocktail room. One for an on -sale cocktail room, one for off -sale, and one for Sunday on -sale. Current City Code prohibits on -sale Sunday sales at microdistillery cocktail rooms and malt liquor at breweries. Staff will propose a text amendment to allow these uses later in the meeting. Next, Alger discussed parking and traffic for the site. City Code requires 30 parking stalls for the size of the proposed microdistillery. There are currently 156 stalls shared with the building to the east. Staff does not anticipate any parking issues. The striping of the parking lot delineating parking stalls has faded. An administrative notice was sent to the property owner to restripe the parking lot by July 1, 2020. The drive-thru shall not be utilized and the awning over the drive-thru window shall be removed. The curb cut on 42nd Ave. N. is intended for ingress only. One of the requirements of this CUP is to reinstall a "Do Not Enter" sign at the curb cut to instruct drivers not to use the driveway as an exit onto 42nd Avenue. Drivers are to exit the parking lot at the NW corner on Quebec Ave N. Deliveries are infrequent and small in scale. The deliveries are to go to the west side of the building, located in the drive-thru lane. The owners anticipate using the outdoor patio. An administrative permit would be required to serve drinks on the patio. In addition, the edge of the patio would need to be delineated with bollards or a fence. The petitioner has indicated a fence would be used. The building facade has awnings in disrepair. The awnings are to either be repaired, replaced, or removed, and notice has been given to the property owner to do so. The missing covers for the building light fixtures are to also be replaced. The business would utilize the shared trash container on the north end of the building. An administrate notice was sent to the building owner to remove exterior storage by the trash enclosure. West Metro Fire has indicated the lock box containing keys to each business in the building shall be replaced on the west side of the building. Alger concluded that proper legal notice and mailing notice were given. Staff received no feedback regarding this planning case. Staff recommends the Planning Commission approve the CUP to allow microdistillery and cocktail room. When Chair Schmidt questioned whether any of the Commissioners had any questions for staff, Commissioner Landy questioned if staff had heard from the property owner. Alger replied they have received no reply in regards to the administrative notices that had been sent. Commissioner Clark asked for clarification on which property issues were included with the CUP and which were separate from the CUP. Director Sargent explained the "Do Not Enter" sign and the lock box are included with the CUP. All other property issues are separate and addressed directly to the property owner. Chair Schmidt invited the applicant to the podium. Alan Davis and Amy Hotchkiss (formerly Davis) approached the podium. Chair Schmidt asked why they decided to open the microdistillery in New Hope. Mr. Davis said they all live locally and they liked the building location off 42nd Ave. N. The space previously being set up as a coffee shop provided a good layout for them with minimal alterations. Commissioner Brinkman asked which type of spirits would be offered. Mr. Davis responded primarily gins, vodkas, and possibly rums. Down the road, they are considering adding whiskeys. Commissioner Brinkman asked if beer would be served. Mr. Davis replied that beer would not be served, and legally they cannot serve it with their type of licensing. 2 Planning Commission Meeting January 7, 2020 Commissioner Smith asked what the seating capacity was. Mr. Davis replied that around 49-50 would be about maximum capacity with their seating plan. That includes tables, bar, and outdoor seating. Chair Schmidt inquired if weekly events would be offered. Would certain days of the week would have different specials/events? Mr. Davis replied that they have had many discussions about events and plan to do so to draw in customers. Commissioner Brinkman asked what their hours of operation would be. Mr. Davis replied Wednesday through Saturday from 4:00 pm — 11:00 pm or midnight. Ms. Hotchkiss added that Sundays would be primarily aimed for private events to use the space. Mr. Davis explained the production cannot be done while open to the public, so production days and general public days need to be delineated, following the licensing and insurance requirements. Motion by Commissioner Landy, seconded by Commissioner Brinkman, to open the Public Hearing. All present voted in favor. Motion carried. No one from the audience wished to speak. Motion by Commissioner Clark, seconded by Commissioner Landy, to close the Public Hearing. All present voted in favor. Motion carried. No further discussion. Motion Motion by Commissioner Clark, seconded by Commissioner Landy, to Item 4.1 approve Planning Case 20-04, a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow microdistillery with cocktail room, 7530 42nd Avenue North, A Davis Distillery LLC, petitioner, with the following conditions: 1. Applicant shall obtain all required licensing and permits from the city, state, and federal government in order to serve alcohol and operate microdistillery with cocktail room. 2. Use of drive-through window shall be prohibited. Drive- through lane shall be used exclusively for deliveries. Awning above drive-through window shall be removed. 3. Missing/damaged awnings above subject tenant's windows shall be repaired or replaced. 4. A "Do Not Enter" sign shall be installed to prevent motorists from exiting parking lot onto 42nd Avenue North. 5. Administrative permit shall be obtained for outdoor seating area. Compact and contiguous area where alcohol will be consumed shall be delineated with bollard connectors or fencing. 6. Lock box containing keys to all businesses within building shall be installed on west side of building in coordination with West Metro Fire -Rescue District. 3 Planning Commission Meeting January 7, 2020 7. Odors from production process or resulting waste product shall not permeate outdoors. Voting in favor: Clark, Brinkman, Mannix, Hanson, Schmidt, Landy, Smith, Korkowski, Voting against: None Absent: Redden Motion approved 8-0 Chair Schmidt stated the case will be brought to the January 27, 2020 City Council meeting. PUBLIC HEARING Chair Schmidt introduced Item 4.2, Planning Case 20-03, request for Planning Case 20-03 amendment to Chapter 10 of the New Hope City Code allowing for on - Item 4.2 sale Sunday sales of malt liquor at brewery taprooms, on -sale Sunday sales of distilled liquor at microdistillery cocktail rooms, and off -sale intoxicating liquor sales at microdistillery cocktail rooms, city of New Hope, petitioner. Mr. Brandon Bell, Community Development Assistant, gave background information on the case. The recent CUP application from A Davis Distillery LLC to open a microdistillery and cocktail room in New Hope led staff to look into city codes. During the planning process, staff noticed that the current city code does not allow for microdistilleries or taprooms to sell on -sale beer and liquor on Sunday. It is the belief of staff that this section of code was overlooked when changes were recently made to reflect that the state eliminated the prohibition of Sunday beer and alcohol sales back in 2017. Staff believes that since both on and off -sale liquor and beer sales are now allowed in the other venues in the city on Sundays, it would be in the best interest of the city to have consistent and conforming code that does not prohibit microdistillery and taproom sale on Sunday either. Staff recommends approval of the proposed text amendments. There were no questions for staff. Motion by Commissioner Landy, seconded by Commissioner Mannix, to open the Public Hearing. All present voted in favor. Motion carried. No one from the audience wished to speak. Motion by Commissioner Landy, seconded by Commissioner Clark, to close the Public Hearing. All present voted in favor. Motion carried. No further discussion. Motion Motion by Commissioner Landy, seconded by Commissioner Mannix, to Item 4.2 approve Planning Case 20-03, request for amendment to Chapter 10 of the New Hope City Code allowing for on -sale Sunday sales of malt liquor Planning Commission Meeting January 7, 2020 at brewery taprooms, on -sale Sunday sales of distilled liquor at microdistillery cocktail rooms, and off -sale intoxicating liquor sales at microdistillery cocktail rooms, city of New Hope, petitioner. Voting in favor: Clark, Brinkman, Mannix, Hanson, Schmidt, Landy, Smith, Korkowski, Voting against: None Absent: Redden Motion approved 8-0 Chair Schmidt stated the case will be brought to the January 27, 2020 City Council meeting. PUBLIC HEARING Chair Schmidt introduced Item 4.3, Planning Case 20-02, request for Planning Case 20-02 amendment to Section 6-14(e)(3) of the New Hope City Code related to Item 4.3 right-of-way management and the exceptions to registration requirements, city of New Hope, petitioner. Mr. Brandon Bell, Community Development Assistant, gave background information on the case. The Codes and Standards Committee discussed the possibility of adding and removing some allowable use exceptions in the Right -Of -Way Management section of the code at its October 1, 2019 meeting. There were two exceptions that were proposed to be removed: erecting fences and parking lots. The Codes and Standards Committee felt that both of these should be removed since they are already not allowed in the right-of-way due to setback requirements in other sections of the city's ordinances. The Codes and Standards Committee also discussed adding "irrigation systems" as one of the exceptions in the right-of-way management. Staff looked into other city's codes in the surrounding area, and many of them provide for this exception. It would be in line with current code since property owners are ultimately responsible for maintaining the landscaping in the public right-of-way directly abutting their property, and irrigation systems can, be an exceptional way to having healthy vegetation. The Codes and Standards Committee was in favor of the text amendment relating to the addition and subtractions of certain right-of-way management exceptions.

Voting in favor: Clark, Brinkman, Mannix, Hanson, Schmidt, Landy, Smith, Korkowski, Voting against: None Absent: Redden Motion approved 8-0 Chair Schmidt stated the case will be brought to the January 27, 2020 City Council meeting. PUBLIC HEARING Chair Schmidt introduced Item 4.4, Planning Case 20-01, request for Planning Case 20-01 amendment to Chapter 4 (zoning) of the New Hope City Code adopting Item 4.4 a Business Warehouse zoning district, repealing self -storage as a conditional use in the Industrial district, and requiring an administrative permit for limited open outdoor storage in the Industrial district; request for amendment to the zoning map of New Hope established by New Hope Code Section 44(b) by rezoning certain properties from Industrial to Business Warehouse, city of New Hope, petitioner. Mr. Jeff Alger, Community Development Specialist, gave background information on the case. The Codes and Standards Committee discussed the possibility of creating a new Business Warehouse (B -W) zoning district at its October 1, 2019, meeting. The purpose of the district would be to provide for the establishment of wholesale and retail trade of large volume or bulk commercial items, self -storage, and warehousing. This includes uses that are industrial in nature but may bring customer traffic and patronage to the site. In order to implement a new zoning district, two text amendments must be approved. The first text amendment establishes zoning requirements and consists of the following. First, establishes permitted & conditional uses; minimum lot, building & setback requirements. Second, repeals self -storage facilities & conversion of industrial buildings into self -storage facilities as conditional uses in Industrial district. Third, requires administrative permit for limited open outdoor storage in Industrial district. Fourth, amends reference in the sign code to specific zoning district to include B- W zoning district. Self -storage facilities would only be allowed in B -W district and would also require a conditional use permit. Rezoning would be required to open a self -storage facility in the Industrial district. 6 Planning Commission Meeting January 7, 2020 Next, Alger reviewed the permitted uses in both districts. The B -W district uses are similar to permitted uses in the Industrial district, with a few differences. Automobile major repair, trade schools, and radio and TV antenna farms are permitted uses in the Industrial district, but would not be permitted in the B -W district. Radio & TV stations, indoor recreational businesses, and off site service business are permitted uses in the B -W zoning district, but would not be permitted in the Industrial district. Alger then reviewed the conditional uses in B -W district have some similarities to the Industrial district. Restaurants, motels, solid/hazardous waste transfer stations, truck terminals and major truck repair, health and social services, daycare centers, adult uses, and government buildings are conditional uses in the industrial district, but would not be conditional uses in the B -W district. Self -storage facilities and warehouse conversion to self -storage facilities are conditional uses in the B -W district, but would not be in the Industrial zoning district. Lot requirements, building heights, and setbacks for the B -W district are the same as the Industrial district. The second part of the request involves an amendment to the zoning map. There are currently eight properties with self -storage uses that would be rezoned to the B -W zoning district. Alger concluded that proper legal notice and mailing notice were given. Staff did receive feedback from four property owners regarding this planning case. Written feedback was received from a representative of one property owner, which a copy was given to Commissioners before the meeting. Staff recommends the Planning Commission approve both of the proposed text amendments, which will require two public hearings. When Chair Schmidt asked if anyone had questions, Commissioner Clark brought up that it is unusual to have specific lots called out for rezoning based upon their business use type. It is more common to have lots similar in geographic area that are rezoned. Mr. Brixus replied that the properties being rezoned from Industrial to B -W are similar in zoning and business use. The proposed rezoning should not have an effect on geographic area. Commissioner Clark asked if another self - storage business comes in and wants to rezone from Industrial to B -W district, whether the city could decline the offer. Brixus replied that if there is interest, the city has discretion to say yes or no for rezoning after weighing the pros and cons. Commissioner Landy questioned City Attorney Stacy Woods on the feedback received from the property owner's representative. Woods said that all CUPs run with the land. Since the state has this as a law, the city would not need to restate the same in the text amendment. Mr. Sargent clarified that the current owner of the B -W district could no longer pursue some land uses based upon the rezoning, but current uses 7 Planning Commission Meeting January 7, 2020 could remain intact. Commissioner Clark, wanted records to show that the commission addressed the feedback from Louts Commercial Properties LLC.

COMMITTEE REPORTS The next potential meeting is on January 16, 2020. Staff has not received Design and Review any applications at this point. If the meeting is cancelled, an update will Committee be provided. Item 5.1 F:3 Planning Commission Meeting January 7, 2020 Codes and Standards There currently is no meeting scheduled. Committee Item 5.2 NEW BUSINESS Chair Schmidt asked if officers needed to be elected. Mr. Sargent replied he will need to check into which terms are up and can be discussed at the next meeting. All commissioners were okay with holding elections at the beginning of the next meeting. Mr. Sargent said, with it being the beginning of the year, it might be good to look at the subcommittee elections. Commissioner Redden would be unable to make all the Design & Review meetings. Currently Commissioner Landy is in the float position between subcommittees and could plan on attend the Design & Review meetings as needed, and then elections could remain the same. Commissioner Landy was okay with this.
