AGENDA SECTION: Airport Business AGENDA ITEM # 8 REPORT # 186 STAFF REPORT CITY COUNCIL MEETING JULY 24, 2000 REPORT PREPARED BY: THOMAS FOLEY, TRANSPORTATION ENGINEER NAME, TITLE REPORT PRESENTER: THOMAS FOLEY, TRANSPORTATION ENGINEER NAME, TITLE DEPARTMENT DIRECTOR REVIEW: ?IGNATURE/ REVIEWED BY CITY MANAGER: ?/ \ I l ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION: Report on Airport Tunnel 1. RECOMMENDED ACTION: By Motion: No Action Required II. BACKGROUND The Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) is proposing to build a tunnel under the new north-south runway to provide access to the airport infield to serve new air cargo facilities. To build the tunnel MAC proposed to pump 3,000 gallons per minute of groundwater for a period of 15 months. The tunnel project requires MAC to file for permits from the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Initial results of consultants' studies differed on the effect of dewatering on groundwater levels. Since then, the consultants have agreed to a common method for estimating groundwater impacts. They now estimate a drop in the water elevation of between 1.2 feet and 2.8 feet for Lake Nokomis. 0724-MACTunnel Due to significant concerns of area residents and the Mayor of Minneapolis, MAC is proposing two methods to reduce the effect of pumping groundwater: (1) sheet piling around the tunnel area; or, (2) soil freezing around the tunnel area. As part of the permitting requirements, MAC is preparing a monitoring and mitigation plan. The plan includes installing monitoring wells to estimate the impact on groundwater levels and lake elevations. Wells are proposed for nearby lakes including Legion Lake (Veterans Memorial Park of Richfield) and Mothers Lake (Taft Park) in Richfield. MAC has met with Richfield staff to review the tunnel project and is still working on developing its mitigation plan. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is awaiting approval of a permit by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District before the DNR will issue its dewatering permit. III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A. POLICY • The City's Comprehensive Plan calls for preserving the natural environment and promoting infrastructure that is environmentally responsible. B. CRITICAL ISSUES • • Assurance that lake levels and groundwater are not seriously affected by the MAC tunneling operation. C. FINANCIAL I • There is no impact on City financial resources. D. LEGAL N/A IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S) • None. This is not an action item. V. ATTACHMENTS • Airport map. VI.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING JULY 24, 2000 REPORT PREPARED BY: SAMANTHA ORDUNO, CITY MANAGER NAME, TITLE REPORT PRESENTER: SAMANTHA ORDUNO, CITY MANAGER NAME, TITLE • DEPARTMENT DIRECTOR REVIEW:. SIGNATURE REVIEWED BY CITY MANAGER: ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION: Consideration of initiating a community-wide strategic visioning process. 1. RECOMMENDED ACTION: By Motion: Direct the City Manager to initiate a community-wide strategic visioning process. III. BACKGROUND At the June 29, 2000 Special Council Meeting, the Council discussed initiating the process of a community-wide strategic visioning process. It was felt that commencement of the process would be best through the creation of an "Initiating Committee" that would be selected by the Council and charged with marketing and public relations activities involved in the process. The Committee would consist of 13-15 people, representing the City Council, City staff and a representative from community groups such as Richfield Visions, the Chamber, Richfield Foundation and others who are the "organizational stakeholders" of the community. In order for the process to commence, it is necessary for the Council to take the following actions: ? By motion, formally declare that the City Council does hereby authorize and direct the City Manager to commence the community-wide strategic visioning process as outlined in the attached staff report (dated June 29, 2000); and ? That the first action is to hereby authorize the establishment of an Initiating Committee to be facilitated by Council Member (Sue Sandahl has graciously volunteered to be a part of the Initiating Committee). III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A. POLICY • The community-wide strategic visioning process is consistent with the Council's commitment to long-term planning and citizen participation. • The Council's policies of long-term strategic planning are consistent with the opportunities for sustained community through a yearlong process that will identify new community leaders and provide a forum for creativity and public policy. B. CRITICAL ISSUES • Timing - The Initiating Committee will set the dates for the number and dates of the community-wide visioning forums based on availability of the forum facilitator, Carl Neu and meeting space at area schools. Once the dates and locations are finalized, the information will come back to the Council. C. FINANCIAL • Funding for the process will be included in the Revised 2000 Budget ($10,000) and in the 2001 Budget ($10,000). D. LEGAL • None. IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S) I • Decline to commence the process at this time. • Modify the process and timeline. I V. ATTACHMENTS • Staff Report, dated June 29, 2000. VI. PRINCIPAL PARTIES EXPECTED AT MEETING • N/A AGENDA ITEM # IV REPORT # 16 • STAFF REPORT CITY COUNCIL/][IRA STUDY SESSION REPORT PREPARED BY: JUNE 29, 2000 SAMANTHA ORDUNO, CITY MANAGER NAME, TITLE REPORT PRESENTER: SAMANTHA ORDUNO, CITY MANAGER NAME, TITLE DEPARTMENT DIRECTOR REVIEW: SIGNATURE 0 REVIEWED BY CITY MANAGER 11 is ITEM FOR COUNCIL/HRA DISCUSSION: Discussion regarding commencement of community-wide visioning process. I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Discussion only. II. BACKGROUND At the January Council/Staff Goalsetting Worksession, Council discussed the benefits of initiating a community-wide strategic visioning process. The yearlong activity would be Council initiated, but community driven and involve not just select representatives from community groups, but the entire community. In January, the Council determined that the process should be initiated later in the year, but no specific timeline was outlined. In May, Council Member Sandahl and I met with Carl Neu; a consultant used by the League of Minnesota Cities and several other Minnesota communities in their community visioning activities, to discuss a proposed process for Richfield. Council Member Sandahl provided very valuable insight into the previous activities of Richfield Visions who began a long-term strategic vision of the community over five years ago. She felt it was desirous that any process the City initiated should build on the foundation built by that earlier process. a The importance of the community visioning process is that it welcomes everyone in • the community to participate in framing the future destiny of their community. It is a process that educates, informs, clarifies and challenges people to think beyond the short-term issues of the day and think long term, strategically. It also serves to unify the community around commonly held goals that are generated from their participation, insight and informed decision-making. It is a wonderful process of community building and future leadership making. There is no magic about the timing of the process. However, in terms of the best time to maximize attendance at the community forums, winter months are not the best. Summer is also a difficult time because of busy sport schedules for kids and family vacations. Spring and fall times generally work the best. The conversation with Carl Neu suggests that the process begin this fall. However, Council Member Susag has suggested that the process wait until after the election, perhaps until the new Council Members are on Council. We can make it work no matter what timeframe is set. The process that is proposed is as follows: 1. Initiatina Committee Creation of an "Initiating Committee", named by the City Council and composed of 13- 15 people, representing the City Council and community groups such as Richfield Visions, the Chamber, Richfield Foundation, School District and others who are the organizational "stakeholders" in the community. • This group will be responsible for organizing and marketing the kick-off campaign for the process as well as the community forums. 2. School Contest The process works best by conducting a contest in the schools (generally 1st through 8th Grade) in which the children "name the process". Representatives from the Initiating Committee will go into the schools to explain what a community-wide visioning process is and why the process needs a name. Flyers with the contest rules and prizes are sent home with the kids. This is the first contact with the parents who we hope will become interested in this initial process to help their children and then become participants in the more long-term process. There would be a "top choice" for a name in each grade level with those children receiving a Savings Bond. All children who participate would receive a certificate and recognition (along with their school, parents and teacher) at a Council meeting where the process would be formally "named" and officially begun. The Initiating Committee would be charged with selecting the grade winners and then, of course, the overall winner whose entry would name the process. . 3. Communitv-wide Forums Once the "process" is named, the dates for the two or three community-wide forums would be set and the marketing campaign would begin. The newsletter, special flyers, yard signs, newspaper articles, cable announcements would all be used to get the word out that on such and such dates, the entire community is invited to join with their friends, family and neighbors to begin the process of defining the future of their • community. The name (some examples are Focus 2020, Future 2000, etc.) would be used in every piece of literature, along with a logo that will call attention to this very unique community opportunity. 4. Forum Format The forums would be held on a Tuesday and Thursday evening - same meeting format for each night. Carl Neu would facilitate the meeting of community members, sitting 8- 10 people at round tables throughout the room.(most likely held at one of the schools). A guest speaker will talk about future trends for cities - technology, transportation and such to prompt the audience to begin to think futuristically and strategically. Then, Carl will take the attendees. to the future of Richfield in the year 2020 (or whatever year is selected to be the focus year) by having the audience close their eyes and imagine Richfield in the year 2020. What is the population of Richfield in that future year? What is the primary mode of transportation? What are our boundaries? What is the cultural make-up of the community? What businesses are here? So on and so on. 5. Common Elements of the Vision, After the audience is taken to the future and begins to formulate their own vision of Richfield in the future, the real work begins for the participants of the forums. Each table will then have X amount of time to share with the others at their table their own visions. There will be a facilitator selected from each table and a scribe. A staff person will be assigned to each table to assist the group. The group will determine the common elements of their visions and this list, along with the one below, will be shared with all meeting participants at the end of the meeting. 6. Critical Issues The next step will be for the groups at the tables to determine the critical issues that must be addressed now and in the near future (generally in increments of 5 years, going out 10 years) so that the elements of the vision can be realized. For instance, if the vision of the group is that the small, hometown feel of Richfield be preserved, then the critical issues to be addressed in the future could be neighborhood preservation strategies, pedestrian safety strategies and so on - critical issues that translate into goals that translate into activities. The group will be asked to list the key critical issues they view as important to address now and into the future that will help get them to the future of the community they envision. 7. Groua Presentation of Critical Issues After the groups have all had time to determine the common elements of their vision and the critical issues they see as key to the realization of their vision, each group's facilitator, scribe or whoever will present their conclusions to everyone. Each table's vision elements and issues will be posted on posted paper around the room. 8. The Vote The last event of the night will be for every participant to vote for the top 10 vision • elements and top 10 critical issues. They will do this by the using the 10 blue and 10 red sticky dots placed in their meeting packets. 9. Results of the Votina These top 10 elements and critical issues will form the basis for the creation of the 5-7 Issue Project Teams that will be formed to study, in depth, their specific issue over a 6- 9 month period. 10. Participant Survev When participants attend the forums, each will be asked to complete a survey form asking them what community topics are of particular interest to them, if they would like to serve on a Project Issue Team and if so in what topic area. They will be asked to rank their level of interest from highest to lowest. Of course, the role of the Project Issue Teams will be explained in full through our marketing materials and at the beginning and end of each forum. 11. Issue Proiect Team Creation After the forums are completed, the Initiating Committee (or subcommittee) will develop the Issue Project Teams from the forum results and the participant surveys. Every effort will be made to place people in their first, second or third choice of topic areas of interest. 12.Team Trainina Once the Issue Project Teams are selected, Carl Neu will conduct a training session for the participants of all Teams, outlining their role, effective strategies for group dynamics, conflict resolution and other interpersonal and strategic mechanism helpful for success. All the Teams will conduct their first organizational meeting the same night as their training sessions, selecting a Chair, Vice-Chair and Secretary. 13. Steerina Committee The Chairs and Co-Chairs of the Teams traditionally form the "Steering Committee" whose charge it is to oversee the progress of the Teams, discuss problem areas, resolve problems, if necessary, and keep the process on track. A member of the City Council is traditionally a member of the Steering Committee as is the City Manager and a member of the Initiating Committee. It will be the Steering Committee that will also oversee the composition of the draft and final version of the Vision Report. Carl Neu will conduct a training session with the Committee to help them function effectively. 14. Team Schedules The Issue Project Teams traditionally meet at least once a month (generally twice) for 6-9 months. Some Teams take longer due to their particular topic area. During this time, the Teams become immersed in their topic area. The process is one of learning as much as possible about their topic area - the law, finances, City policies/procedures/regulations/ordinances as well as what other cities do in the area. In order for the Team members to develop goals and action steps relating to the future strategies for the community, they need to know as much about their topic as possible. Many groups invite speakers from other cities, organizations, the Legislature and others to gain additional insight into their topic area. Each Team will have two staff is members assigned to them as resources. 15. Draft Vision Report The end result of the efforts of the Teams will be a report outlining the goals and action steps they envision to be important for the future of the community as it relates to their particular topic area. The Steering Committee will be responsible for assembling the various reports into one Draft Vision Document that will be printed and distributed to the entire community. 16. Second series of forums The draft Vision Report will then be presented to the community by the Teams at another series of community forums. This will be the second opportunity for the community to see the results of the yearlong process; the first opportunity will be the distribution to the community of the draft Report. The purpose of these forums is to receive public comment for inclusion (or not) into the Final Report. 17. Final Report After the final set of community forums, each Team will review their draft report, make any changes, if needed, and finalize their report to the Steering Committee who will arrange for the printing of the Final Report. Unless, there are significant changes, the Final Report is not re-circulated to the public, but printed only in small numbers for specific distribution. 0 18. The Final Report is then formally presented to the City Council. 19. At the next Council/Staff Goalsetting Worksession, the Council and staff then begin to incorporate the visioning goals into a Five-Year Plan. 20. The Steering Committee remains in tact throughout the process and beyond. This group will monitor the accomplishment of the community visioning goals and report to the public once a year. 21. The process is generally updated at the end of the first five years. Of course, the above-described process can be altered in any form to fit our specific needs. III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A. CRITICAL ISSUES • Timinq If the forums were held in October, the Teams wouldn't have their first meeting until after the first of the year. Marketing of the process would, of course, begin immediately with the formation of the Initiating Committee. The process, if started in October, would lend itself very well to completion approximately a year from that time, making it also fit within the Council/Staffs Goalsetting schedule for the first part of January. That timeframe would also make it possible to link the goals and action steps to the Budget preparation for 2002. • Participation Traditionally, Council Members do not participate in any of the Project Teams. They do, however, participate in the Forums. The October timeline would provide an opportunity for Council Members to participate in the community-wide forums and all other activities of the process would take place after the November elections. This would allow involvement of new Council Member(s) as well as the opportunity for currently sitting Council Members to participate in Teams. B. FINANCIAL • This process is not inexpensive. The cost generally ranges from $15- 20,000 with the bulk of the costs paid for publication of the report, the costs associated with conducting the community forums, marketing of the process/forums and the training of the Team chairs, co-chairs and the Steering Committee. • The 2000 Revised Budget will reflect an expenditure of $10,000 for commencement of the process with another $10,000 appropriated for 2001. • Staff is seeking direction from the Council regarding your desire to: ? proceed with the community-wide visioning process ? set the timeline for commencement of the process ? fund the process IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S) • The Council could decide not proceed with the community-wide visioning process. V. ATTACHMENTS • None. VI.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Conduct and close the public hearing and by motion: Approve second reading of a transitory ordinance authorizing the sale of 6309 18th Avenue to Time Warner for the construction of a cable TV switch station. .A II. BACKGROUND Time Warner's main cable TV and Road Runner internet access service enters the Richfield cable network at their current switching station at 65th Street and Cedar Avenue. This property is in the process of being acquired to facilitate the reconstruction of the TH 77 and 66th Street Interchange. Time Warner needs to find a location for a permanent switching station within about three blocks of its existing site. The City of Richfield owns a parcel of property at 6309 18th Avenue. It was conveyed to the City of Richfield in 1957 along with several other parcels that were to be used for park purposes. However, there was no deed restriction language that was made part of the conveyance. Most of the original conveyance to the City 0724 6309-18th second reading has been developed for park space at Taft Park. This piece is separated from the park by 63rd Street. • This property does store some stormwater runoff but has no outlet. The water must evaporate or soak into the ground. Time Warner would find this site suitable for their cable TV switching building. They plan to build a 35' by 45' one story brick or decorative block building to house their equipment and provide cable and Road Runner access to the entire City of Richfield. No one would be employed on the premises. There would be no noisy equipment operating inside the building. There may be off-street parking for one vehicle or on-street parking could be used depending on the location of the building on the lot. Time Warner has employed a private real estate agent to search for possible sites in the area. They have found none. They have also discussed the possibility of locating the building across the street in Taft Park or on the area of the park along Cedar Avenue where wood chips and other equipment is stored. Public Works and Recreation Services staff think that the site in question is good for use by Time Warner and does not interfere with their needs. Public Works does want to make sure, however, that the lot retains as much storm water storage capacity as already exists on the lot. This property is within the area designated by the legislature for property purchases with the first $5 million grant the City is designated to receive from the Legislature. Concepts being developed call for the eventual redevelopment of the entire area south and west of this parcel. But, it is on the edge of the proposed redevelopment area and will not interfere with future redevelopment plans. Sixty- third Street in this vicinity will likely not be vacated because access needs to be provided to U.S. West and to Taft Park's parking area. The property has been professionally appraised at $21,000. Time Warner has agreed to pay this amount for the site. III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A. POLICY The proposed use is allowed as a conditional use in the R zoning district. A neighborhood information meeting was held July 6, 2000. Three households were represented. There were no objections. B. CRITICAL ISSUES • Time Warner needs to find a site close to its existing fiber optic distribution line and within three or four blocks of the existing location. Relocation needs to be accomplished by the December 31, 2000. To keep on schedule, construction needs to begin in September 2000. If other cable companies desired to enter the Richfield market, they would have their own facilities. C. FINANCIAL • Time Warner has agreed to pay $21,000 for the lot (the appraised value). D. LEGAL • The property would be conveyed by quit claim deed. • A conditional use permit is required as this is a utility locating in a R zone. • A variance will also be required due to minimum lot size requirement of 40,000 square feet for a non-residential use in an R zone. Additional variances for setbacks may also be required. IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S) • Do not authorize the sale of this property to Time Warner. V.

I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Conduct and close a public hearing and by motion: Approve a conditional use permit to allow construction of three garage structures and other site improvements, as described in the staff report, at 620-734 East 78th Street and 701-735 East 77th Street (formerly the Hampton Place Apartments) with the stipulations listed in the Legal Basis of Recommendation. II. BACKGROUND Village Green Companies recently purchased three apartment complexes, Hampton Court, Heritage Square and the Crestwood. Village Green is planning a variety of site and building improvements at all three complexes. At Hampton Court, the following improvements are proposed: • Construction of three garages with 52 stalls • Additional landscaping 0724hampton • Additional lighting • Fagade improvements to the main entrance of some buildings • Creation of courtyard areas between the buildings with fencing and landscaping improvements • Ornamental fencing along 77th and 78th Street and Chicago Avenue • New signage • Replaced trash enclosures • Addition of a defined area for residents to wash their cars. The existing pool will be removed and replaced with garages and a parking area. The tot lot will remain. The parking -areas on either side of the existing pool area will be expanded to the south. There are currently 296 parking stalls. The proposed changes will result in converting 38 surface stalls to 52 garage stalls. An additional 27 surface stalls will also be added for a total number of 337 parking spaces. Landscaping will be added to screen the parking areas from 78th Street. Interior improvements (e.g. painting, new carpeting) are also planned. The 221 apartment units are located in 13 buildings. I III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A. POLICY • The proposed improvements are consistent with the City and Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) programs and policies to encourage physical improvements to apartment buildings and to improve the living environments for apartment residents. • Even though it is not appropriate to consider rent increases in evaluating this conditional use permit application, staff has met with Village green representatives to discuss the community need for continued affordability of apartment units. The potential loss of affordable units at Hampton is most significant because of the rent affordability and the number of units. B. CRITICAL ISSUES • The City has experienced problems with the Hampton Place apartment complex in past years. While many of the issues (e.g. poor maintenance, inadequate tenant screening) have been addressed, the new management presents an opportunity for further improvements. • At such time in the future that 1-494 is widened, 78th Street (the frontage road) will be removed. Village Green has been informed of this future event and the fact that their access to 78th Street will be eliminated. The City anticipates that, when the 78th Street access is eliminated, the property will need access off of 77th Street in addition to the access off of Chicago Avenue. • The parking requirement for a multi-family complex is two spaces for every unit. The Council can reduce the ratio to 1.25 parking spaces per unit considering factors such as transit availability, shared parking, pedestrian orientation, and occupancy characteristics. A reduced parking ratio has existed without problems since the complex was built in the 1960s. The parking availability at the complex was reviewed two years ago and determined to be more than adequate. With the proposed improvements, the parking ratio would be increased from 1.3 to 1.5 spaces per unit. • The southwest garage may need to be moved and/or redesigned slightly to maintain required fire lanes. C. FINANCIAL The complex is currently a source of affordable housing for many City residents. The owners plan to increase rents as leases are renewed and again after improvements are made. Village Green has stated that they will phase in the increases for current tenants. The Planning Commission determined that the affordability of the housing was not a criteria that could be used to approve or deny the conditional use permit. • The property currently participates in the 4d program, which provides property tax reductions to apartment housing owners to ensure that a portion of units remain affordable. The owners have stated that they plan to continue participation in the 4d program (166 units in the complex are 4d); however, the City has received information regarding rent increases that indicates the complex may no longer qualify for the 4d program after rents are increased. There are also 25 Section 8 units in the complex. While the existing Section 8 tenants can continue to reside in the complex, they will need to absorb the rent increases; the program subsidy will not increase. D. LEGAL • Notice of the public hearing was published in the Sun-Current and mailed to property owners and occupants within 350 feet of the subject property. • On June 27, 2000, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the conditional use permit. • Stipulations of Approval: 1. That a stormwater management plan be approved by Public Works Director. 2. That a sediment and erosion control plan be approved by the Public Works Director. 3. That a final landscape plan be submitted and approved by the Community Development Director. IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S) • Deny the conditional use permit amendment with a finding that the proposed changes would have a negative impact on the surrounding property and the City as a whole. V.

I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Conduct and close a public hearing and by motion: Approve a conditional use permit to allow construction of a 5,400 square foot clubhouse facility and other site improvements as described in the staff report at 900-1000 East 78th Street and 901-1001 East 77th Street (formerly Heritage Square Apartments) with the stipulations listed in the Legal Basis of Recommendation. • II. BACKGROUND Village Green Companies recently purchased three apartment complexes, Hampton Court, Heritage Square and the Crestwood. Village Green is planning a variety of site and building improvements at all three complexes. At Heritage Square, the following improvements are proposed: • Addition of a 5,400 square foot clubhouse facility 0724heritage • Additional entrance off of 77th Street to an expanded parking lot (approximately 20 stalls) adjacent to the clubhouse facility. • Expanded pool deck • Potential addition of a glass enclosure over the pool • Additional landscaping • Ornamental fencing along 77th and 78th Streets • Facade improvements at some of the building entrances • Additional lighting • New dumpster enclosures • New signage Landscaping will be added to screen the parking areas from 77th and 78th Street. Interior improvements (e.g. painting, new carpeting) are also proposed. Residents at the other two complexes will be able to use the facilities at the clubhouse. There are four buildings with a total of 150 apartments. 1111. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION I A. POLICY 0 • The proposed improvements are consistent with the City and Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) programs and policies to encourage physical improvements to apartment buildings and to improve the living environments for apartment residents. • Even though it is not appropriate to consider rent increases in evaluating this conditional use permit application, staff has met with Village Green representatives to discuss the community need for continued affordability of apartment units. B. CRITICAL ISSUES I • At such time in the future that 1-494 is widened, 78th Street (the frontage road) will be removed. Village Green has been informed of this future event and the fact that their access to 78th Street will be eliminated. An additional access off of 77th Street or some added internal circulation will be needed to provide access all parking lots at that time. • The parking requirement for a multi-family complex is two spaces for every unit. The Council can reduce the ratio to 1.25 parking spaces per unit considering factors such as transit availability, shared parking, pedestrian orientation, and occupancy characteristics. The reduced parking ratio of 1.47 spaces to units has existed without problems since the complex was built in the 1960s. The parking will be increased by approximately 20 stalls to provide parking near the clubhouse facility. • The proposed new parking lot shown on the plans has not been approved by the Public Works Director. Additional space needs to be. provided for stacking cars. The entrance should be redesigned and subject to the Public Works Director's approval. C. FINANCIAL • The complex is currently a source of affordable housing for many City residents. The owners plan to increase rents as leases are renewed and again after improvements are made. Village Green has stated that they will phase in the increases for current tenants. (Rent increases are becoming commonplace throughout the metropolitan area.) The Planning Commission determined that the affordability of the housing was not a criteria that could be used to approve or deny the conditional use permit. • The property does not currently participate in the 4d program. • There are 12 Section 8-units in the complex. While the existing Section 8 tenants can continue to reside in the complex, they will need to absorb the rent increases; the program subsidy will not increase. D. LEGAL • Notice of the public hearing was published in the Sun-Current and mailed to property owners and occupants within 350 feet of the subject property. • On June 27, 2000, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the conditional use permit. • Stipulations of Approval: 1. That the clubhouse parking lot be redesigned to provide a longer entrance area and that the final design be approved by the Public • Works Director. 2. That a stormwater management plan be approved by Public Works Director. 3. That a sediment and erosion control plan be approved by the Public Works Director. 4. That a final landscape plan be submitted and approved by the Community Development Director. IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S) • Deny the conditional use permit amendment with a finding that the proposed changes would have a negative impact on the surrounding property and the City as a whole. V.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: By Motion: Approve a resolution establishing just compensation and authorizing the purchase of properties for the 66th Street /TH 77 Interchange Project. II. BACKGROUND I On February 28, 2000, the City Council approved a Right of Way Agreement with the Metropolitan Airports Commission (the "MAC") which provides for the acquisition of properties impacted by the expansion of 66th Street and Trunk Highway 77 (the "Project"). The appraisal work began February 29, 2000. Appraisal reports were prepared for the real estate and immovable fixtures and equipment and reviewed by a review appraiser. MAC is responsible for providing the final review for the real estate and recommending just compensation to the City Council for approval for this project. At this writing, MAC continues to process the final reviews. These final reviews consist of reviewing all (a.) real estate appraisal reports (two for a majority of the properties due to right of way acquisition regulations); (b.) immovable fixtures and equipment appraisal reports; (c.) review appraisal reports for all real estate appraisal reports; (d.) review appraisal reports 0724 jc 66st - final for all immovable fixture and equipment appraisal reports; and (e.) any work involving re-classifying immovable fixtures and equipment as realty and vice versa. Due to the high volume of reviews required at one time, MAC will not be able to provide their recommended just compensation figures to staff for inclusion in this staff report. However, the figures will be available by the time of the meeting on July 24, 2000. A resolution will be presented to the City Council for the aforementioned recommended action at the meeting. However, it is likely that not all the properties will be included. If that is the case, staff will recommend a special meeting of the Council to establish just compensation on those properties which remain. In addition to the justcompensation figures, the property owners may also be eligible for relocation benefits. The relocation benefits will be calculated separately by the City's acquisition/re location consultant, Conworth, Inc., once offers are made to property owners in accordance with the Uniform Relocation Act. 1111. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A. POLICY • The subject properties have been identified for purchase for the project. • The Memorandum of Understanding between the City, the Minnesota Department of Transportation (the "MNDOT"), and MAC outlines the responsibilities for each participating agency. • The Agreement between the City and MAC further outlines the responsibilities of each agency as to property acquisition and construction. • Right of Way acquisition procedures set forth by MNDOT are being followed. B. CRITICAL ISSUES • Offers will be made to the property owners upon Council's approval of just compensation and authorization to purchase. • Properties are being processed for Council's consideration for just compensation and purchase authorization as appraisals are received by staff. C. FINANCIAL I • MAC is obligated to fund this transaction. D. LEGAL • . N/A E. TIMING • Closing will be scheduled as negotiations are completed. • Based on other right of way acquisition projects, owners will be able to remain in the property to help make moving as smooth as possible. Vacation, however, must be completed by December 31, 2000. IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S) • Delay approval of the just compensation and authorization to acquire the project properties. • Do not approve just compensation and authorization to acquire the project properties.

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION: An amendment to an Off-Street Parking Permit for 7720-7740 4th Avenue (formerly the Crestwood Apartments). I I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: By Motion: Approve an amendment to the off-street parking permit for 7720-7740 4th Avenue (formerly the Crestwood Apartments) to allow site improvements as described in the staff report. - II. BACKGROUND Village Green Companies recently purchased three apartment complexes, Hampton Court, Heritage Square and the Crestwood. Village Green is planning a variety of site and building improvements at all three complexes. At the Crestwood apartments, the following improvements are proposed: 0724crestwood Expanded pool deck Additional landscaping Ornamental fencing along 78th Street and 4th Avenue Facade improvements at some of the building entrances Additional lighting New dumpster enclosure J New signage There are three buildings each containing 17 units for a total of 51 units. III. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION A. POLICY The proposed improvements are consistent with the City and Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) programs and policies to encourage physical improvements to apartment buildings and to improve the living environments for apartment residents. Although it is not appropriate to consider rent increases in evaluating an amendment to an off-street parking permit, staff has met with Village Green representatives to discuss the community's need for continued affordability of apartment units. B. CRITICAL ISSUES • An Off-Street Parking Permit was approved for the property in 1966. The proposed changes to the approved site plan will upgrade and improve the appearance of the complex. C. FINANCIAL I • The complex is currently a source of affordable housing for many City residents. The owners plan to increase rents as leases are renewed and again after improvements are made. Village Green has stated that they will phase in rent increases for current tenants. The affordability of the complex is not, however, a criteria for approving or not approving an off-street parking permit. • The complex currently participates in the 4d program, which provides property tax reductions to apartment housing owners to ensure that a portion of the units remain affordable. The owners have stated that they plan to continue participation in the 4d program (26 units at Crestwood are 4d); however, information that the City has received regarding rent increases shows that the complex may not continue to be able to qualify for the 4d program after rents are increased. There are also six Section 8 units in the complex. While the existing Section 8 tenants can continue to reside in the complex, they will need to absorb the rent increases; the program subsidy will not increase. D. LEGAL • The proposed changes comply with City ordinances. • No changes are being proposed to the current parking ratio of 1.24 spaces per unit. IV. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S) 0 Deny the request for an amendment to the Off-Street Parking Permit V.
