Consider a request by Sand Companies for preliminary plat approval for Elk River Retail Center No. 2 Consider a request by Sand Companies for a conditional use permit for a hotel Location Elk River Retail Center, Lots 2, 3,and 4, Block I Zoning/Land Use PUD (Planned Unit Development) / HB (Highway Business) Attachments · Location map Preliminary plat Development plan · Original plat and development plans PUD agreement- allowed uses · Letter from applicant to City Council dated 8/7/98 13065 Orono Parkway · P.O. Box 490 · Elk River, MN 55330 · TDD & Phone: (612) 441-7420 · Fax: (612) 441-7425 Memo to Mayor and City Council/CU 98-18 August 17, 1998 Page 2 Overview Sand Companies is proposing to construct a 78 unit Country Inn and Suites on property just north of the Perkins located at Elk Hills Drive and Highway 169. The project is located in the Elk River Retail Center Planned Unit Development. The project also includes an amendment to the PUD to allow a hotel as a conditional use and a replatting of the plat for Elk River Retail Center. The Elk River Retail Center was approved in 1994. The original plans showed a class I restaurant (Perkins), 18,800 square feet of retail space and a 3,900 square foot automotive center. PUD Amendment The existing PUD agreement does not include hotel/motels as an allowed use. Uses currently allowed are those listed as permitted, conditional and accessory in the C2 (Office District) and as conditional uses retail shops and stores, motor vehicle specialty shop, and class I restaurant. The proposed hotel will have less of an impact on the neighborhood than the originally approved retail and automotive center regarding traffic. Traffic generated by the retail use would be almost twice as much, 91 vs. 55 peak hour trips, than a motel. The 55 trips generated by the motel is based on full occupancy. When the traffic generated by the automotive center is included, the uses in the original plan generated more than twice as many peak hour trips. Preliminary plat The preliminary plat for Elk River Retail Center No. 2 involves replatting 3 lots from Elk River Retail Center into two lots. The largest lot (133,818 square feet) is located on the north end of the site and will accommodate the hotel. The smaller lot (61,617) is located between Perkins and the motel site and is likely to accommodate an office use. There is an existing drainage and utility easement from the original plat that crosses through the middle of proposed lot 2. This easement will need to be vacated. This item is scheduled to be considered by the City Council when they review this preliminary plat application. Access to the plat is provided by two driveways off of Dodge Street. One driveway has been constructed and is currently used by Perkins. The second s:\planning\scott\cu9818cc.doc Memo to Mayor and City Council/CU 98-18 August 17, 1998 Page 3 driveway will be located at the north end of the site. Both driveways are in the same location as shown on the approved concept plans. Typically, even though there are usually cross access easements for projects such as this, each lot has to provide enough parking to meet the parking requirements for the use located on that lot. In this case the overall parking requirements for the motel and a possible office are met. However, the parking for the motel actually extends on to the lot for the office. It is suggested the lot lines be adjusted so the parking required for the hotel is actually located on that lot. In the attached memo from the City Engineer are comment regarding easements, the grading and drainage and utility plan. Site Plan The proposed site plan includes a 78 unit hotel located in the northwest corner of the site, adjacent to Highway 169. A building pad for a 10,000 square foot office building is also shown. The office building is not included as part of this application; however, the grading and site preparation for both lots will be done as part this project. The hotel location in the northwest corner of the site is in the least obtrusive location for the residences on the east side of Dodge. It is in the same approximate location as the retail strip center included in the original plans. The hotel will be three stories high with the entrance facing south. Because of the way the building is oriented, the sides facing Highway 169 and Dodge Street are blank walls. To give some relief from the blank walls windows or some type of architectural treatment should be included on the east and west ends of the building. The hotel's exterior will be light brown steel siding with a dark green roof and red shutters around the windows. Parking and Access The parking requirements for the 78 unit hotel and 10,000 square foot office is 133 spaces. The proposed plan has 134 parking spaces. The applicant is proposing to phase the construction of the parking lot and construct the parking needed to meet the requirement for the hotel at this time. The parking for the office building will be installed at the time the office is constructed. The City Engineer will review the phasing plan to insure there are no drainage or erosion problems. Additional parking will have to be installed to meet the parking requirement for the proposed hotel expansion. The site has 2 internal connections to the Perkins lot, one behind the office building and one along Highway 169. A stop sign should be placed on the s:\planning\scottXcu9818cc.doc Memo to Mayor and City Council/CU 98-18 August 17, 1998 Page 4 access behind the office building where it intersects with the Perkins Driveway. Access from Dodge will be provided with two driveways, one is a shared driveway with Perkins and the other is at the north end, just east of the hotel. Both driveways are in the same location as shown on the original development plans. Lighting will be provided with poles similar to those on the Perkins site. They will be 30 feet tall with downward throwing lights. Future Expansion The site plan shows area for a possible 30 unit expansion. This will require additional parking. The additional parking will be provided on the north side of the building. In order to allow space for the pedestrian trail which will access the pedestrian overpass and enough space to provide adequate parking for the expansion, staff is recommending the setback be reduced from 30 feet to 20 feet. Landscaping The landscape plan will have to be revised so the required number of trees are provided The site plan is deficient 3 overstory, I ornamental and 4 evergreens. The existing trees on the berm shall not count towards the tree requirement. There are trees which are located within the area north of the building to be used for a future City pedestrian access. The trees should be planted so they will not interfere with the pedestrian access. Trees in this area could also impact the water main and sanitary sewer. Staff will be working with the applicant to address landscaping issues and come up with a workable landscape plan. Signage The applicant is proposing a 30 foot high pylon sign along Highway 169. The PUD agreement allowed a 20 foot high monument sign for the development. The hotel sign would be considered the development sign. The grade at the base of the sign is approximately 14 feet above the grade of Highway 169. A 30 foot high pylon sign would place the sign 44 feet above the road. For a comparison: · Elk Park Center is 30 feet high, 17 feet wide and advertises the center and 2 major tenants; Hillside Crossing Retail Center is 25 feet high, 16 feet wide and advertises the center and 2 major tenants; s: \planning\scott\cu9818cc.doc Memo to Mayor and City Council]CU 98-18 August 17, 1998 Page 5 · Hillside Crossing is 24 feet high14.5 feet wide and advertises the major tenant 2 other tenants; · Hillside Crossing II is 27 feet high, the Menards sign is 34 feet wide and the remainder of the sign is 16 feet wide, advertises the major tenant and has room for 3 other tenants. The placement of the pedestrian overpass on Highway 169 could impact the visibility of the freestanding sign. The applicant believes the 30 foot high sign is needed so it will be visible from southbound cars. Wall signage is also proposed and will consist of 2 wall signs, one on the south side and one on the west side. The PUD agreement allows one wall sign for each freestanding site and limits size to 10 % of the wall face. The proposed sign facing Highway 169 is approximately 129 square feet and the sign facing south is 70 square feet. All signs will require a sign permit. Staff can support the proposed wall signs Planning Commission Meeting At the Planning Commission meeting held on July 28th several neighbors spoke at the public hearing. Arlon Fuchs, who lives across the street from Perkins, indicated he felt the height of the berm should not be lowered and was concerned with maintenance of the stormwater pond. Dan Smith, owner of Perkins, was concerned about traffic congestion at the intersection of the rear access drive behind the proposed office and the driveway into Perkins. He would like to see the rear access eliminated or at a minimum a stop sign installed. Tammy Ayers was concerned about traffic, noise, location of the trash container, maintenance of the pond, and security. The applicant responded to the concerns by saying the trash container could be moved to a less conspicuous location, the pond will be maintained by the same company that maintains the motel site, a stop sign could be installed at the intersection of the rear access and the Perkins driveway. The traffic generated by the motel will be less than what would be generated if the site was a shopping center and most of the traffic going to the motel will use the entrance near Perkins, not the one further north on Dodge. The Planning commission discussed possible architectural treatments for the ends of the building and concerns about traffic at the intersection of 189th and Dodge. The issue of the height of the freestanding sign and the pedestrian corridor were also discussed. The Commission felt a 20 foot high sign was adequate and the proposed parking for the future addition should be setback 20 feet from the north property line. s:\planning\scott\cu9818cc.doc Memo to Mayor and City Council/CU 98-18 August 17, 1998 Page 6 Planning Commission Recommendation PUD Amendment The Planning Commission recommended the City Council approve the proposed PUD amendment to allow hotel/motels as a conditional use in the Elk River Retail Center. Preliminary Plat The Planning Commission recommended the City Council approve the preliminary plat request for Elk River Retail Center No. 2 with the following conditions: 1. The lot lines be adjusted so the parking needed for the motel is constructed on Lot 1. 2. A 20 foot easement along the north property line of Lot I be dedicated to allow construction of a pedestrian pathway. 3. An amended Planned Unit Development agreement be signed and recorded prior to recording the plat 4. All comments in the City Engineer's memo dated 7/22/98 be incorporated into the plat. 5. Cross access parking agreement be prepared and reviewed by the city prior to releasing the plat for recording. 6. The drainage and utility easement extending through lot 2 be vacated prior to recording the plat. Conditional Use Permit The Planning Commission recommended the City Council approve the conditional use permit for County Inn and Suites for a 78 unit hotel with the following conditions: 1. Work with staff to include architectural treatments for the east and west building elevations. The freestanding sign comply with the original PUD agreement which allowed a 20 foot high monument sign with a width of 15 feet. All signs will require sign permits. s:kplanning\scott\cu9818cc.doc Memo to Mayor and City Council/CU 98-18 August 17, 1998 Page 7 3. The landscape plan be revised to address the comments outlined in the City Engineer's memo and the staff report. 4. All comments of the City Engineer's memo dated 7/22/98 be incorporated into the plans. 5. All improvements to the parking lot for both the hotel and the office building shall be constructed as part of this project. o All additional parking needed for the proposed expansion will have to comply with setback requirements in effect at the time the expansion is constructed 7. The trash receptacle location be moved to the center of the plat. Staff Comments In response to the applicant's letter to the Council dated August 6, 1998, staff agrees the proposed pedestrian overpass could impair the visibility of their freestanding sign and could support a maximum height of 30 feet. Regarding the west and east ends of the building, staff initially recommended windows be included on the ends of the building to break up the blank walls. The Planning Commission compromised and included a condition that staff work with the applicant to include an architectural treatment on the east and west building elevations. The issue of the trash enclosure was brought up by the resident across the street, Tammy Ayers. Staff can work with the applicant on an alternative location for the trash enclosure. Since the issue of the dumpster location will also come up during the review for the office building, a combined dumpster enclosure for both the hotel and office should be considered. Staff would also suggest adding the following conditions to the conditional use permit: 1. All building and freestanding signs will require a sign permit. 2. A stop sign be installed at the intersection of the access drive behind the proposed office and the entrance to Perkins. s:\planning\scott\cu9818cc.doc · LOI' 3 J I'O'"/AL BL,g~ AREA.

I am writing this letter to appeal to your sense of fairness and to ask for some minor changes to the July 28th Planning Commission's approval of our project in Elk River. At this meeting Sand Companies, Inc. was willing to compromise on several issues but tried to make it clear that the proposed signs requirements are not acceptable and that some of the other requirements will add significant costs to this project. I certainly understand the need to compromise, however we felt that there was no willingness to compromise on the City's part. We would like you to address the following concerns at your August 17th COunCil meeting: 1.) Twenty (20) foot trail easement. - The City requested a 20' easement on the north side of our property. We are willing to grant this easement entirely on our property as requested provided that no cost for this trail be assessed to our property. I believe that this is a significant compromise on our part given the fact that the MNDOT property should have been required to give 10' of the 20' and that this wffi allow the City to complete the trail sooner at less cost. 2.) Windows on the ends of the building. - Staff has requested windows on the ends of our building, which none of the neighbors expressed any concern during the public hearing and during our neighborhood meeting. This requirement will add unnecessary costs and require significant redesigning of certain areas of our building. I would ask to have this requirement waived as it seems to serve no significant purpose. 3.) Freestanding sign requirements. - From the start of this process, we have made it very clear to staff that there are some items we absolutely need in order for us to invest $3.6 million into the community of Elk River and to be a successful hotel. One of Sand Companies, Inc. · Sand Properties, Minnesota, Inc. (EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER) which was the sign height of at least 30' with a width of 17'-3" (this is Country's standard width) and to be able to have some flexibility on an exact location of this sign so it will be seen from Highway 169. This issue is crucial to us and to the success of this hotel. Especially, when considering the new proposed walk bridge, which we were told at the planning commission meeting, would be a 10' high fenced or enclosed walk bridge on the northwest comer of our lot. This bridge will definitely impair the visibility of our building and our sign if the freestanding sign remains in its present proposed location and at the planning commissions recommended 20' height restriction. 4.) Trash enclosure location. - Our proposed trash area will be completely fenced and screened with significant landscaping trees. We have looked at other options but feel this is still the best location because of the need to be located in an area which is easily accessible for the re,se tracks. A_ny of the other !ocatio~ presented new problems. We are certainly open for any suggestions the City Council may have on a location as we are at a loss for another good, accessible location. 5.) The nine (9) other City requirements are acceptable to us as proposed. I would like to point out that we held a neighborhood meeting at the Perkins Restaurant in Elk River on Wednesday, July 22na to discuss with the neighbors our proposal. We sent a letter to all neighbors within 350' of our site by using the exact same mailing labels the City did for the public hearing. There were 7 to 8 neighbors present at this neighborhood meeting and our proposal, which was the same as what was presented to the Planning Commission's July 28th public hearing, was thoroughly discussed with the neighbors. These neighbors found our proposal to be very acceptable. I am asking that an approval on August 17th by the City Council be made to include our requested changes above, which is necessary for us to move forward on this project. If you have any questions or comments before the Monday, August 17th meeting please feel free to contact me at (320) 202-3100. S~)°~/ ies, Inc. l_po ~Sand resident / CEO CC.
