Ooputy Noor Schneider introduced this ites, stating that the
Planning Comaisslon has reviewed the request for land use guide
plan monda nt for Dave tohnson in response to May 200 1985 Ci ty
Counoll direction. the Planning Commission has considered the
revised plan and recoasatided dental.
ialr Tramore stag that the Planning Commission reeammendatIon
was based upon consideration of expanding a commercial at -}a into
a residential acne when other undeveloped commercial land
exists, the impact upon the City's traffic system, and concerns
of neighboring residential property owners. He stated that the
petitioner has been responsive to Council direction with respect
to traffic design concerns.
Wise 3ohnson 17435 County Road 6, said that this item had been
f"e 'bCity Counei1 at their May 20 meeting and that
direction had been provided. He has been responsive to nelgh-
borhood screening concerns and has made considerable effort to
communicate the changes in meetings for and by publications to
area residents.
Irwin Kilstofte, of Kilstofte and Associates, Architects, for
e petitioner, outlined the issues including the creation of a
lot for each building, ingress and egress revisions in accord-
ance with the StrgaraRoscoe-Fausch traffic study, transition by
buffering and by lowering the building helght. He explained
that tho changes t,.% the plat have been responsive to Council
direction and that site line sketches have been prepared.
Councilmiember Crain stated that the lack of coniferous trees
provides only seasonal buffering for the site. No added that
raising the berm, as well as the addition of significant coni-
ferous trees would substdntially add to the transition. He '
believes that no firm financial justification has been provided
for the comarcial density requested. He asked for more infor-
mation.
Peter Carlson 17300 - 13th Avenue No., said that the biggest
Taue n s e nd is that over 508 of the parcel must be rezoned
to oommMI41 from resldential. This establishes an undesirable
precedent and aggravates an alveady bad traffic problem at T.H.
101 and Canty Road 6. He st,vted that there are Sl children in
the neighborhood under 18 years of age on 13th and 14th Avenue,
and that the landscaping was not adequate.
W1111w Fourte, 17130 - 14th Avenue No., said that most neigh -
ors are concerned with the impact upon their property valua-
tions. He doe -s not see a neighborhood eowmunity benefit from
this development and to concerned about the look of play areas
for n+aa0borhood children. The proposal is not consistent with
the City's Coepreher.stve Planj and he believes that the City
needs more residential, rather than can ereiel, developmmnts.
He stated that the recent commaunity survey found that residents
were not Interested in additional medical facilities.

Couna.limembar Vaslliou questioned whether he was referring to
the oommunity survey sponsored by the City. No said he was.
Counelloember Schneider stated that the iandscape plan esceeds
the City*s landscape ordinance requirements.
Councilmember Vasil& referred to the Hennepin County letter re-
garding driveway access to County Road 8. She asked Fred Moore
U* limits of the County's requirement. Engineer Moore stated
that the County hos control with respect to issuing driveway cut
permits on county roads and In this respect, has stated that a

Nanager Willis stated that the resolution In the packet would
condition the approval of the guide plan amendment on various
ravistons.
Attorney Lefler stated that, if the Council is inclined to
approve the request on conditions that no formal ftgutding
approval should be given yet, the resolution should condition
the guide plan amendment upon speclflc requiresrents.
Deputy Mayor Schneider stated that he would go along with rem
guiding if the Council's concerns were met.
Couneilsember 146113 stated that it is difficult in this respect
to•deter+alne the economic viability of the project, and that she
Is not interested In receiving financial data. Her concerns
relate to traffic prnblems. She stated that the area is in need
Of reoonstruvtlon and bellevcs that the plan should stand on Its
own merits.
Counctimember Vasillou agreed with Councilmember Nelln' QomnBnts
And believes that the petitioner has been responsive. She felt
that the landscape plan could go further in providing buffering.
CounelL%vber Frain stated that considering the east and west
sides of Highway 101, south of County Road b, it is appropriate
that this area have commercial guiding and toning. He does not
believe that RAA would be appropriate along such high traffic
routes. Ills concern Is that there are major changes here from
the existing guide plan and wants a good transition between this
development and residential areas.

Mayor Davenport returned to the meeting.
Plamr Tramere introduced the request for an RPUD concept plan,
praLlmina.ty plan/plat, rezoning and conditional use permit for
Httltags Knoll for John Karos. The proposal requires a veriann
with respect to overall development size to be considered as an
okay WWW The ordinance provides that such variances way be
approved if they meat certain conditions. Twenty-three single
family detached structures are proposed with a single 6 acre
site for a church. Before the final approval may be gratted for
a ehureh, detailed final site plan and conditional use permit
wast be submitted and considered at a public hearing. Comell
action this evening would only provide concept approval of the
church site.
Rick Sathre, Sathre-Bergqulst, Inc., stated that in response to
neighbor concerns this development attempts to be compatible
with the Westminister parcel sizes, especially along the
southerly border adjacent to westminister. In addition, healthy
mature trees will be saved along this area as additional transi-
tion. Amenities will be provided to the site by the digging of
a pond. A private open space of approximately 1.6 acres will
also be provided. The landscaping plan Includes both under and
over story c,recs6
Councilmeamber Schneider questioned the existing topography as
sh=n on page 8 of the developmter6L booklet. Rick Sathre identi-
fled existing treed areas on the property and reiterated the
desire to save all mature trees.
Sack Miller Miller and Neary, stated that he represents Emmaus
Notmwrch. The church Is concerned with timing for the
construction. They require a v%oc.0tional use permit and site
plan, and his concern is that the church may be acquiring a par-
cel before the conditional use permit is approved. Therefore,
he does not want the church to go ahead with their purchase if
the City Council Is not willing to ultimately approve the %:ondl-
tional use permit. He would like specific direction from the
Council an this matter.
Mayor Davenport stated that the Council will provide feedback .in
the appropriateness of the church on this site.
P to !eea ndt, 7764 Arlington Alenue No., outlined the
developments Rose I development is planned first for an audt-
torium which will seat 2506 Presently there are 60 to 70 mem-
bers of the church. Phase II would be initiated when d0% of the

Counaiimember Yasiliou questioned whether a congregation of 60
amid sustain a development of this site financially. Pastor
Byandt stated that the congregation intends to acquire the land
Initially ad develop financing for the building within 3 to 4
years.
Counailme6ber Schneider asked with a 94a Wson auditorlun, what
the total church membership be% Factor 1yandt stated that
chhurch meabership would be expected at 600 at that point* It is
wally accepted that once congregatlon attendance achieves
608 of the total seating Capaccity# that an expansion must be
undertaken.
Couneilmember Schneider asked from what geographic reg! in the
congregation is drawn. The Pastor responded that within a 10 to
15 mile radius.
Mayor Davenport stated that he was in receipt of various docu.
ments which had been submitted on behalf of the neighborhood,
lnetuding w-aranda and oetitions.
Couneilmeeber Neils laked about the timing for development of
the single family lots. Sohn Karos, petitioner, stated that the
hoesing development will begin immediately following final plat
approval and that construction must begin this building season
to be financially feasible. Couneilmember Nails asked about the
kind of housing and who would be the contractors. Mr. Karns
responded that Mn 3opp and Mr. Freund, who have both developed
houses In Plymouth, would be Involved in this development. He
stated that there is a good market for the westminister•type
housing priced between $ 00,000 and $165,000, and that he would
be using many of the same builders as were used in the Heritage
Addition.
Bill Ciora 3045 Rosewood lane, appeared on behalf of the W63t-
m n s er meowners Association. The lbmeowners Association
opposes the petition. The development requests a vat.ance to
get RPUD status and thus greater density on wtaller lot sizes.
No other appropriate uses have been explored including ones

A ---Association desire (6.500 sq. ft. lots? Mr. Clore
stated he had no problem with an average of 150000 Ito lots
without the church.
Manager Willis outlined the My's attempts to sell the parcel
involved In this development proposal* lifter negotiating with
n4wrous interested parties, Sohn Karos approached the City and
a purchase agreeeent was ultimately reached. There is some
potential that the sale of this parcel as well as the parcel to
the north, also owned by the City, may be imrminent for develop-
Oent.
Nr. Clara stated that It would be helpful to move the parking
Lot to the north end of the parcel to minimize disruption to the
adjacent residents.
Mayor Davenport stated his concern about attempting to place
residential parcels directly adjacent to Northwest Boulevard.
He doesn't believe that this is a feasible proposal.
Donald Nlelsent 1015 Rosewood Lane, stated that he is not oppos-
e to the 4 urch Itself, but the site being contemplated. He
stated that the parcel proposed is twice the length of the
Radisson Inn site. Nayor Davenport clarified that if the City
considered a totally single family development, that access
would be required from the cul-de-sac running through Westmint-
stec area on 30th Avenue.
teff Burton, 12940 - 30th Avenue Hoo, said that the neighborhood
a's been impacted by the Northwest Business Campus, County Road
61 and no neighborhood park. He is concerned about access via
the Wastminister development because his children play on the
street. He stated that the tree line on the south of the pro-
party contains decldlous trees and therefore more buffering
would be required.
Bohn Karo* indicated that the :and which residents have describ-
ed as "prime, buildable land" might be "prime" for a gad station
or restaurant. For single family parcels it is relatively
undesirable given the major streets surrounding it. He stated
that he is puroshasing the pruperrty at $150000 per acre, which is
well In excess of the undeveloped land costs of other area
dave1000e4t3. He also stated that there is a very high cost of
extending sewer and water in this area.

Mayor Davenport reminded the Council that this Is a PUD concept
plan, and ds such, does not specifically include the amproval of
a conditional use permit stte plan for a church.
Counciinober Crain stated that he is comfortable with the conm
rept plan except he is concerned about the percentage of parking
lot and building coverage on the church parcel of land.
MOTION +las made by Counellmember Crain to deny the residentlal
planned unit development concept plan, preliminary plan/plat and
conditional use permit for Sohn Karos for Heritage Knoll (RPUD
854). (SWI), noting the lack of the open space which is an
RM attribute.
Notion died tot Isck of second.
Counelimember Schneider feels that the plan could be improved
with major revisions inaluding downsizing of the church,
especially with regard to percentage of lot coverage. This
should be a neighborhood and not a regional church.
Mayor Davenport asked whether this parcel could be dealt with as
an outlot. Planner Tremere stated that the Council should view
the church as a conceptual or "footprint" representation only,
and that If the site coverage should be reduced, this should be
the Council's direction. He reminded the Council that the peti-
tioner has asked for concept plan concurrent with preliminary
plat approval. The ordinance provides for a separate concept
stage where Issues such as this can be resolved prior to subsea
quent approvals. Manager Hillis clarified that it the Council
Is looking for a way to limit the size and lot coverage, it
could do so through conditions.
Mayor Davenport asked the Couneilmewbers opinions on whether the
church use was appropriate.

coveroge credit should be given for the treed area. This should
be an elomt of the ultimate landscaping plan for the develop-
ment.
Attorney Lefler minded the Council this Is a concept plan and
represents nothing but hopeful speculation. Any Council resolu-m
tion should expressly not approve the church concept In any
shapa, Mair or form, but only approve that plan for the residen-
tial structures. The next step would be for the Council to
Identify guidelines lee., under what editions within which the
church might develop.

Councllmember Neils asked Engineer Moore it F:rnbrook Lane with-
in the development would be constructed to City standards.
Engtneer Moore responded that it would. He stated that the
petitioner is taking issue with the roadway construction
requirement on existing Harbor Lane. Engineer Moore stated that
the corridor study discussed Fernbroak Lane as a collector
street. Ir the land in this parcel and the adjacent parcels
developed LA -1, the collector street would not be needed. By
virtue of the fact that this development is being requested at
LA -2 density, the collector street must be developed from County
Road 15 to the site.

Attorney for pe itloner Al Fazendin. They are concerned that

Manager Willis stated that It both lots developed LA -2 and LA -4

north to County Road 6 and to County Raid 1S.
Nr. Oberhauser is concerned that his property will yield only
