The Planning Commission directed the applicant to make revisions to the proposed building exterior to make it more consistent with the existing Market Place West buildings on the adjacent parcel to the north. The applicant has submitted revised plans for the proposed building exterior for consideration at the Planning Commission's meeting on 6 July 2004. Exhibits: A. Original Building Elevations B. Revised Building Elevations ANALYSIS The direction from the Planning Commission was that the building elevations were to be revised to, 1) provide for a two-story appearance to the structure using height and detailing, and 2) create horizontal segmentation of the building to minimize a retail strip center building appearance. The overall goal is to make the appearance of the proposed building more consistent with that of the existing Market Place West buildings to the north. The revised building plans provide for revised designs above the first floor store windows and entrances with five faux second floor elements included across the north side of the building and use of different materials for the pilasters for various sections of the building. The effect breaks up the horizontal length of the building, but does not necessarily create the appearance of separate building butting up against one another (like the existing Market Place buildings), especially since the first floor store fronts and entrances are identical. We would recommend that brick be extended on the pilasters at sections E, F, G, and H of the building to just below the cornice to add greater emphasis to this area. A secondary issue is that City Staff supported the reduced setbacks to Quaday Avenue, 91St Street and Parrish Avenue only if the south side of the building matched the north front fagade. To this end, the parapet designs on the north side of the building must be mirrored on the south fagade as well. The amount of masonry building material on the east, south and west facades has been reduced on the revised plans to the extend that we would also recommend use of brick facing between the rock face block portion of the pilasters above the CMU base where no window is provided for each of these facades. Provision of additional windows or faux window panels is also recommended for the west elevation of the building. We also want to emphasize an issue identified by the City Engineer in their review of the site plan. Because of the reduced setback of the building to 91St Street, the slope from the floor of the building down to the adjacent sidewalk is quite steep. This slope will make maintenance of lawn or plants difficult. The City Engineer has recommended construction of a low retaining wall such that the slope between the side walk and the building can be reduced to 3:1 or less. We concur with this recommendation, which is covered by the condition that all grading plans are subject to approval of the City Engineer. RECOMMENDATION Subject to the Planning Commission's response to the revised building elevations, we recommend approval of the applications as outlined below. POSSIBLE ACTIONS A. Motion to approve a PUD Development Stage Plan and Final Plat for Otsego Waterfront Retail, subject to the following conditions: The proposed building elevations are revised to: a. Extend the use of the rock face block material on the pilasters at sections E, F, G and H to just below the cornice on the north fagade of the building. 2 b. Miror the parapet and cornice details of the north elevation on the south elevation of the proposed building. C. Increase the amount of brick facing between the rock face pilasters above the rock face block base on any building section not having an exterior window. d. Additional windows shall be provided on the west elevation of the proposed building. e. 2. Wall signs for individual tenants shall be limited to 32 square feet and one sign may be allowed on the north and south facade for each tenant. 3. A freestanding 64 square foot message sign is to be installed at the south site entrance from Quaday Avenue and made available to tenants with the proposed building and those tenants within the existing buildings on Lot 1, Block 1 Waterfront 2 d Addition. 4. The applicant shall extend the sidewalk along CSAH 42 along the west lot line and a sidewalk connection shall be made from the south side of the building to the sidewalk/trail along CSAH 42 or 91St Street. 5. There must be a total of 211 off-street parking stalls shared between the subject site and Lot 1, Block 1 Waterfront 2"0 Addition. 6. All exterior lighting fixtures shall comply with the PUD District design guidelines, subject to City Staff approval. 7. All grading, utility and easement issues are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer, including provision of a retaining wall(s) to eliminate slopes greater than 3:1. 8. The applicant shall pay a cash fee in lieu of land equal to $7,000 to satisfy park and trail dedication requirements. 9. The applicant shall enter into a development contract with the City and pay all applicable fees and securities, subject to approval of the City Attorney. 10. Comments of other City Staff. B. Motion to deny the application based on a finding that the request is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan and PUD District. C. Motion to table. PC.

The applicant has submitted this information and we offer the following comments. Exhibits: A. 5th Addtion Building Plans B. 6th Addition Building Plans C. Landscape Plans ANALYSIS 5th Addition Detached Townhomes. Minks Construction has submitted plans for a single lever, split entry and two-story detached townhomes to be built within the 5th Addition. The basic floor areas of the structures are 1,027 square feet for the split entry design, 1,234 square feet for the single level dwelling and 1,504 square feet for the two- story dwelling. Additional floor area can incorporated with finished (potential walk -out) basement space and optional four season porches for each design. The attached garage area of the single level and split entry dwellings is 440 square feet with minimum 20 foot width. The area of the attached garage for the two story dwelling is 400 square feet with a 20 foot width. The Zoning Ordinance requires single and two- family dwelling units to provide a minimum area of 480 square feet for an attached garage. The twin home dwellings approved for the Kittredge Crossings 3`d Addition were required to conform to 480 square foot standard, as should these dwelling units. The building exteriors feature distinctive architecture between the three types of units and the single level structures have three exterior appearance options for the front fagade. The materials for the exterior of each of the structure types is a mix of brick/stone wainscoting, vinyl lap siding and vinyl shake pattern siding. We recommend that the wainscoting from the front of the structure also extended to the sides of the garage portion of each type of structure given the garage -forward designs to improve the curb appearance. No colors for the proposed dwelling units is specified. The City required the Kittredge Crossings 3d and 4th Additions to provide four distinct color packages with no single color scheme used for more than 30 percent of the total number of dwellings within each addition. We recommend the same condition be applied to these structures. 6th Addition Row Townhomes. Eagle Crest Builders has submitted plans for two types of row style townhouse structures within the 6th Addition, which are similar to the structures this builder constructed within the Pheasant Ridge development. The Bass Lake Villa units are single level dwellings with potential walk -out basements have a base floor area of 1,032 square feet and the two-story Champlin dwelling unit has a minimum floor area of 1,674 square feet. The attached garages measure 18 x 21 (378 square feet for the Bass Lake dwellings and 20 x 20 (400 square feet) for the Champlin dwelling units. The actual wall-to-wall width of the garages for the Bass Lake dwellings is 17 feet. If the average car is approximately six feet wide, the width of these garages is cramped. We would recommend a minimum width of 20 feet and minimum area of 400 square feet be required. Like the 5th Addition buildings, the structures exterior of these structures is a mix of vinyl lap and shake siding with brick/stone wainscoting on the front fagade. As with the 5th Addition, we recommend extending the wainscoting along the sides of the garage. Because of the mass of the side elevations for these structures, we also recommend shake pattern siding be provide in the roof gables. No colors are specified and we recommend that four distinct color packages be provided with no single color scheme used for more than 30 percent of the total number of structures. Landscaping. The submitted landscape plans address the streetscape plantings to be provided for by Farr Development Corporation and the foundation/yard plantings to be provided for by each of the builders for the respective additions. The streetscape plantings are consistent with the overall project landscaping that has been previously approve and is consistent with the Zoning Ordinance requirements for type and size. 2 The foundation plans for the 5th Addition detached townhomes includes a minimal amount of shrubs on the entry side of front corner of the dwelling and two shade trees. We recommend that additional plantings be installed on the garage side of the dwelling to provide some break up of the horizontal length of the building. Plantings should also be added at the rear corners of the structures. The landscape plan for the 6th Addition provides a good mix of shade trees and evergreens throughout the common area. The foundation plantings focus on the entrance area of each dwelling and again, we recommend that additional plantings be provided at the outside walls of each structure and at the rear corners. An estimate for the cost of the proposed plantings and their implementation must be submitted to determine the security to be required with the development contract. RECOMMENDATION The applicant has provided the information requested by the Planning Commission for future review. Subject to the revised conditions outlined below, our office recommends approval of the proposed 5th and 6th Additions to Kittredge Crossings. POSSIBLE ACTIONS Decision 1 — 5th Addition (detached townhomes) A.

Mr. Darkenwald indicated that Clem Darkenwald as well as the D & Y Partnership supports this proposed plan which provides three legged interchanges at CSAH 42 and CSAH 37 with a connecting two- way frontage road along the west side of TH 101 to provide for access to southbound TH 101 from CSAH 42 at CSAH 37. City Staff discussed with Tom Darkenwald that it is likely in the interests of both the City and the developer to delay action on the current development request until MNDoT formally submits a concept plan based on this design to the City for approval. Given the City's limited review period under Minnesota Statues 15.99, extending the review beyond 27 July 2004 would require agreement by the applicant. If the applicant is not agreeable to this approach, we would recommend approval of the PUD -CUP and Preliminary Plat be made subject to the conditions outlined below: Decision 1 - PUD -CUP A. Motion to approve a PUD -CUP allowing for use of a private drive to provide indirect access to public streets for the lots within Block 1 of the preliminary plat, subject to the following condition: 1. The preliminary plat is revised to provide for dedication of right-of-way to the City for an interchange at the northwest quadrant of CSAH 42 and TH 101, consistent with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan that access to TH 101 at CSAH 42 is to be maintained. The configuration of the necessary right-of-way is subject to further discussions with the City, Wright County, MNDoT and applicant. B. Motion to deny the application based on a finding that the request is inconsistent with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan. C. Motion to table. Decision 2 — Preliminary Plat A. Motion to approve a Preliminary Plat for the Quaday Addition, subject to the following conditions: Approval of a preliminary plat does not guarantee access to sanitary sewer service capacity. Only those projects with approved final plats and executed development contracts that include payment to receive such services shall be allocated sanitary sewer service capacity. 2. The existing non -conforming building is removed with the first final plat. 3. Development of each individual lot will be subject to site and building plan review in accordance with Section 9 of the Zoning Ordinance. 4. The applicant shall prepare a traffic study evaluating the effects of the proposed development to area roadways and implement any recommendations to manage traffic recommended by the City, Wright County and MNDoT as a result of the traffic study. 5. Construction and cost responsibility for Quaday Avenue shall be determined by the City Council as a condition of preliminary plat approval. The right-of-way for Quaday Avenue must be expanded to abut the 310 foot lot line of the adjacent parcel to the northeast. The design and construction of Quaday Avenue is subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. 6. Only one access shall be allowed to Lot 1, Block 2 from Quaday Avenue at an alignment with the access to Block 1 and no direct access to CSAH 42 shall be allowed. 7. The private drive shall provide concrete sidewalks on both sides. The design and construction of the private drive within Block 1 is subject to approval of the City Engineer with access to CSAH 42 subject to review and approval of Wright County. 8. The concept plan and preliminary plat are revised to illustrate a 65 foot setback from Quaday Avenue. Within Block 1, buildings and off-street parking/drive aisles shall be setback from the private driveway 35 feet and 15 feet respectively. 9. All shared utility lines must be overlaid by drainage and utility easements. And all other easements are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. 10. All utility plans are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. 11. Grading and drainage plans as required by Section 21-6-2.0 of the Subdivision Ordinance are submitted for review and approval of the City Engineer. 12. Park and trail dedication shall be in the form of cash fee in lieu of land as specified by Section 21-7-18.1.3 of the Subdivision Ordinance. 13. Upon approval of a final plat, the applicant shall enter into a development contract and pay all required fees and securities, subject to review and approval of the City Attorney. 14. Comments of other City Staff. B. Motion to deny the application based on a finding that the request is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and/or Subdivision Ordinance. PC.

They also maintain a tree farm on a separate parcel just east of the City of Albertville, part of which is to be developed by D.R. Horton. In establishing the Oakwood Avenue site as their primary business location, Midwest Landscapes, Inc. has sought to relocate their existing 64 square foot sign just to the east of the 1-94/CSAH 37 interchange to this site and requested a Zoning Ordinance amendment to allow for a sign of this size for their use. Exhibits: A. Site location B. Photos of the existing sign C. Draft Ordinance Amendment ANALYSIS Section 37 of the Zoning Ordinance, which regulates signs, does not address allowances for uses allowed in the agricultural zoning districts such as wholesale nurseries, commercial recreation or other uses that have identification needs. The most applicable regulation is a farm identification sign, which is allowed to be 32 square feet in area with a maximum height of 6 feet by Section 20-37-3.A.8 of the Zoning Ordinance. Only the name of the farm and type of farming on the property may be identified on these signs. While generally consistent with the nature of the applicant's use of the property, these existing regulations would not allow for relocation of the existing sign the applicant has on their property near 1-94/CSAH 37. City staff discouraged the applicant from seeking a variance as we believe no justifiable hardship meeting the criteria outlined in Section 5 of the Zoning Ordinance exists. As such, the only recourse the applicant has is to seek a Zoning Ordinance amendment to allow for a specific type and size of sign applicable to their use and similar uses in the agriculture districts. We have drafted the following language to accommodate signs such as the applicants for further discussion by the Planning Commission: 3. Signs identifying wholesale nurseries, commercial riding stables, commercial animal kennels or veterinary clinics consistent with the following provisions: a. One (1) sign shall be allowed with an area not to exceed sixty-four (64) square feet. b. Freestanding signs shall be limited to a maximum height of eight (8) feet. C. The sign shall identify only the name and or type of use and any advertising display on the sign shall be prohibited. d. The sign may be illuminated provided that glare from fixtures shall be oriented so as not to cast glare towards the public right-of-way or adjacent properties. Uses such as the applicant's wholesale nursery are allowed in agricultural districts because of unique requirements of the use or their anticipated minimal impact to City service requirements. However, these uses still involve interaction with patrons and business services that necessitate some form of business identification signage. Provided that such signage is limited, (i.e., not necessarily to the scale allowed businesses in commercial or industrial district) no compatibility issues or disruption to the character of the area would be anticipated. RECOMMENDATION Uses such as the applicant's wholesale nursery have unique needs for a business in an agricultural area. To provide for identification of these types of uses, our office supports approval of a Zoning Ordinance amendment to allow a limited business signage as outlined herein. 2 POSSIBLE ACTIONS A. Motion to approve a Zoning Ordinance amendment to provide for limited business identification signage within agriculture districts as consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the allowance of these types of uses in these zoning districts. B. Motion to deny the application based on a finding that the request is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. C. Motion to table. PC. Mike Robertson Judy Hudson Andy MacArthur Adam Zopfi ORDINANCE NO.: CITY OF OTSEGO COUNTY OF WRIGHT, MINNESOTA AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 37 OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE TO PROVIDE FOR LIMITED BUSINESS IDENTIFICATION SIGNS WITHIN AGRICULTURAL ZONING DISTRICTS. THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF OTSEGO DOES HEREBY ORDAIN: Section 1. Section 20-37-5.A of the Zoning Ordinance is hereby amended to read as follows: 3. Signs identifying wholesale nurseries, commercial riding stables, commercial animal kennels or veterinary clinics consistent with the following provisions: a. One (1) sign shall be allowed with an area not to exceed sixty-four (64) square feet. b. Freestanding signs shall be limited to a maximum height of eight (8) feet. C. The sign shall identify only the name and or type of use and any advertising display on the sign shall be prohibited. d. The sign may be illuminated provided that glare from fixtures shall be oriented so as not to cast glare towards the public right-of-way or adjacent properties. 34. No other signs shall be permitted in these districts unless deemed essential by a governmental agency. Section 2.
