Call to order the June 4th U planning commission meeting. Let's stand to do the pledge. God, >> do the roll, please. >> Here. >> Here. Mike >> here
>> the minutes. Anybody have any changes to last meeting's minutes? If not, we'll accept those as done. Any announcements? >> Uh, no, not this evening. So this evening we have a few public hearings. The first public hearing is to
consider the application uh of ISG for a conditional use permit for the convenience sorry for a convenience restaurant with drive-thru service window in the M2 mixeduse corridor
district. Ryan Duran uh with Optadan would you introduce the product or project? Sorry. Uh Ryan Dan with Oppetin uh 400 Water Street, Sweet 200 Excel Street,
Minnesota. Um I'm not sure. Is this on a slideshow right here? >> I think so. Should be. >> Oh, okay. >> Oh, >> yeah. Happy to talk through it quick. So, um in the development, it's nine parcels. We have a number of different users. This building in particular, um,
like city staff has mentioned, will be a drive-through restaurant, um, as well as a dental service and then some to be determined, uh, space right now. >> Very good. Thank you. >> Yeah. >> Please present for this city. >> Good evening, chair or vice chair,
commission members. I'm Heather Botton, the senior planner with the city. Uh, this request, hopefully you can hear me. Okay. Okay. This request is for property located east of Cedar Avenue. It's south of 179th Street. It is lot three of the
marketplace at Cedar Plat. The property is zoned M2, which is our mixed use cedar corridor district. The request in front of you is for a conditional use permit for the convenience restaurant with a drive-thru in the M2 zoning district. The project
overall includes an approximate 8,500 square foot multi-tenant building. Um, And then the one would have the drive-thru service window on the westerly side of the building over here. So the main access to the
site would be to the south and then there would also be access through the parking the parking lots to the developments the lots to the west and to the east. Uh there is a single lane drive-thru that wraps around the building with a pass through lane that
also goes around it. Uh the parking calculations are shared with the lot to the west. So the minimum number of parking spaces would be 80 and the maximum allowed on these sites would be 100. So the proposed development
includes 92 parking spaces which complies with our code requirements. Um the building does comply with all of our setback requirements. The storm water design as you have probably remember from the other developments in this uh plat the storm
water was approved with the plat itself. So engineering will review the final plans at the time of building permit. The landscape plan provides plantings mainly on the north and south side of the property with additional plantings within the parking lot medians medians.
Uh forestry has reviewed the plans and stated that additional trees would be required along the easterly side near the drive-thru lane to help reduce the headlight glare from vehicles entering into the drive-thru. So revised plan will have to be
submitted prior to city council review and approval review of this of the cup. the building elevations uh with the exterior building materials, they are required to have at least 65% grade A materials and no more than 35% grade B
or C. So depending on what elevation you're looking at, the building will be constructed of 66 to 71% grade A materials and 29 to 34% grade C materials. So this does comply with our code requirements.
So staff is recommending approval of the conditional use permit with the six stipulations listed in the staff report along with the findings of PA fact that were included with your packet. Uh we have not heard from any of the surrounding property owners and the anticipated council date for this request would be on June 15th. We'll
stand for questions. >> Thank you. This is a public hearing. If there's anyone in the audience that would like to speak on this issue, if you please come up, >> Mr. Chair. Yes. Seeing no one come forward, I move to close the public hearing.
>> Second. >> Public hearing is closed. >> Oh, sorry. Voice vote, please. All those in favor of closing the public hearing say I. >> I. I. Anybody opposed? Uh, the public hearing is closed. Uh,
commission members, any questions or comments? >> I just have a question for the developer. Do you have tenants identified yet or is that something you guys are still working on? >> We have two tenants identified with signed leases and then working to find u remaining tenants for the rest of the
building. >> Great, Mr. Mr. Chair, also for Mr. Duran. Um, so, so three more to be identified >> up to three. Yeah, we've designed the building to accommodate up to three in that remaining space. Um, but
>> but you could combine if >> could combine to one single tenant. Yeah, if if that was possible. Yep. >> So, I I was looking at the uh at the drive-thru. >> Um, is the convenience restaurant that we're talking about tonight, is that the only business that can use that drive-thru or could this somehow be
modified so that two of these businesses could could use these drive-through lanes. >> Um, I'm not sure that may be a city staff question. I'm sure code related if that would be >> allowable. Um, but it it's surely designed to accommodate other businesses. Yes.
>> Thank you. >> Yep. >> Anyone else? >> Mr. Chair, I motion to recommend city council approval of the conditional use permit for convenience restaurant, the drive-thru service window in M2 mixeduse
Cedar Corridor district subject to the six stipulations in the planning report dated May 27th, 2026 and the findings of fact. >> I'll second that motion. Ericson, could you take the role, please? I
>> I >> I >> the motion passes. Um we wish you well on your development and uh thank you for coming to Lakeville. For the next agenda item, uh it's a public hearing to consider the
application of EB Lakeville Development LLC for an amendment to a CUP 24-09 for the construction of more than one principal residence residential building on one lot of record and the vacation of
a public rightway for for 207th Street. Willow Keith, would you please introduce your pro project? >> Chair, council member or commission members. Thank you very much. Uh Willow Keith 3020 France Avenue South St. Louis
Park. Um I'm here on behalf of Bader Development as well as our partner developer uh Elivage Development Group. Um, we're thrilled to be in Lakeville to to bring this opportunity um and this
project hopefully to fruition shortly. Um, we are working off of previously approved uh projects which I believe some of you may have seen uh in recent years uh where there was already consideration to multiple buildings. And
so our project is very similar. Um, we are proposing a 142 unit apartment building and then 24 town homes and so we'll have amenities and um all
of that, but um we're really just trying to make sure that we're setting up the land use correctly uh to allow for that now as we move forward. So, thank you very much. >> Thank you, Jensen. Good evening, commissioners. Hopefully,
one of these works. Okay, so this is a public hearing for an amendment to previously approved CP number 24-09, as well as the vacation of 207th Street Rightway. Uh the subject property is north of
210th Street, which is Cas 70 and west of Kakook Avenue. My uh key cook is right on the edge of the page here. I35 is just off. Uh the property is zoned RH2 multiple family residential. Uh this was the previously approved site
plan that city council granted approval on October 21st, 2024. I'm just having it here for a little uh refresher. Uh it was a preliminary plat of one lot. There were three conditional use permits. one conditional use permit, three items uh
approved. Uh one was the more than one principal building on a lot which we are requesting to amend this evening. The other two were a building height in excess of 48 ft and the exception to exterior material requirements.
The ex the uh proposed building, the new apartment building is roughly the same height um as what was proposed. So, it is still in compliance with that conditional use permit. And the exception to the exterior material requirements was because of the
underground um more of the underground parking area is exposed. And so when you take that exterior material into account, it um it throws off the the minimum requirements. So everything, you
know, first floor and above meets our um our city requirements. Um so that was why that we included that CUP. And then I also did want to note that in conjun in conjunction with that preliminary plat, the uh tree inventory uh was done
at that time and because that was approved as a part of that preliminary plat, they are not subject to the new requirements that we adopted uh late last summer. Um, so they are still working under the previous requirements that were in effect at the time that this preliminary plat was approved.
>> This is the new site plan. Uh, we still have uh the apartment building here in roughly the same location, but instead of a a second building along the west line, we have four uh sixunit town home buildings. So there's a total of 182
units. Um, I'm sorry, that was the previous plan, 182 units. The current plan has 166, as Mr. O'Keefe said, 142 units within the apartment building and then 24 town home units as well. The uh
multif family building does have two levels of underground parking. Um depending upon which level you want to be at, you'll either enter in on the south or up on the north end here. Um so that accommodates 161 underground spaces
and then the surface there's 123 spaces. So they are meeting that requirement for two spaces per unit, one of which is under the building. So they are in in in meeting that. Um the town homes themselves each have two car garages and space for two cars in the driveway as
well. They are developed under the RM3 requirements which does not require guest parking, but obviously with the adjacent uh surface parking for the apartment building that will also serve as as guest parking should it be needed. Um, and then in the middle here, if I
can get my mouse working, this is a pool amenity area. There is a a little dog run area in the back here as well for the the residents uh within the development. 207th Street, uh there is a a chunk of
of right ofway for 207th Street. It obviously has never been improved. It was created in 2006 when the county was doing official mapping for the County Road 70 improvement project. Um so it was under the county's jurisdiction up
until about March of this year. Um when they transferred it to the city so that it could be vacated in conjunction with this project. Um and due to the authentics project to the north um just for information 207th Street is up here.
uh it initially before authentics was developed uh intended to come down and and end here which is why it was mapped as a part of that project but that has obviously changed since then. So that right ofway is no longer needed. So we
are vacating that with this project. Uh updated landscape plan um showing landscaping on the site foundation plans for the larger building. can't really see the foundation plantings on the town homes, but that is required and will be
provided as well. Uh, one thing we did note in the report was the efficiency apartment was showing a a bedroom um the ordinance requires that efficiency units um be one room exclusive of, you know, a
bathroom, uh, closets, things of that nature. Um, and then they can have a minimum square footage of 500 square ft. one-bedroom units have a minimum of 700 square feet. So, we g, you know, the developer like here's your options. Um, they did note that they are are making
changes to that. The you kind of see the revised plan here so that that fourth wall of that bedroom is is removed. So, it now does meet those requirements and they will update those plans prior to prior to city council approval. Uh and
then just forformational purposes, I did include a chunk of the exterior materials. Um they are it's a little tough to tell here. There's uh two different colors of brick, a darker and a lighter color. There is stone. And then these other areas are different
types of hardy sighting. There's lap sighting. There's kind of a a panel. And then there's not on this section, but there's some board and batten as well as some other woodlook lap sightings. So they are um same as the previous um apartment building meeting those uh
requirements of that cup that was approved. Uh so staff does recommend approval of the amendment to cup 2409 and the vacation of 2020 207th Street rightway subject with the three stipulations listed in the May 28th planning report
and approval of the findings of fact dated June 4th. And I will stand for any questions you may have. >> Thank you Miss Jensen. Is there anybody in the audience that wishes to address this issue? >> If you would just uh state your name and address, please. >> Sure.
>> Robert Powell, 11774 25th Street West. I live my property's due north of this property, and I just wanted to know if the moratorum still has anything to do with it or not for this year. one and two, we had talked to the previous
developer and they were agreed to put in a fence and that kind of stuff. Is that kind of stuff still open? My two questions. >> Very good. >> We'll come back to you. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Anyone else wishing to speak on this
item? And we'll answer your questions once once we close the hear. Are we ready to close the public hearing? >> Mr. Chair, I uh move to close the public hearing. >> Second,
>> Miss Ericson, can you call the voice vote? I'm sorry. Uh voice vote. Uh those in favor of closing the public hearing say I. >> I. Anybody opposed? Not the public hearing is closed. Miss Jensen, could we address those two
issues? I believe one was a fence. >> So, uh, as far as the moratorium issue goes, when that was approved by city council, it did exempt any, uh, residential projects that already had preliminary plat approval, which this
project did. Uh, so it is allowed to continue forward to uh, final plat. Um, the other one, Mr. Powell noted, a fence. Um, there was a fence that was approved along that north property line. Um, so it would be expected that that would still be required because that was
part of that preliminary plat approval at that time. >> So, >> thank you. >> Y Mr. Pow, I think that addresses your two issues, correct? >> Thank you. >> Any other questions from commission
members? >> Mr. Chair. >> Yes. >> Um, question for the developer. Um, you know, as I as I understand, uh, the CUP, one of the reasons for the CUP was changing this from a single building. I take it was a large apartment building
only to the town homes in the apartment. You just speak to the decision to change that. So, the previous version had two multif family apartment buildings of I mean, in fairness, larger size because it was 182 units total. And so as we
went through our process and as we looked at the broader market um and I I will speak our company manages 15,000 units around the Twin Cities. So we really pride ourselves on getting into the weeds on the needs of a specific community when we explore a market. And
so as we looked at it, we saw an opportunity to provide a different type of housing um than had been previously approved. Um, and we thought that that was additive to the development as a whole and uh would be well received broadly.
>> Thank you. >> Any other questions, comments? Are we ready for a motion? >> Mr. Chair. Um motion to recommend city council approval of the amendment to conditional use permit number 24-09
and the vacation of 207th Street right ofway subject to the three stipulations in the planning report dated May 28, 2026 and the findings of fact. >> Second. >> We have a motion and a second. Miss Ericson, could you take the role please?
>> I >> Swaney >> I. Travis >> I >> Kuza >> I very good motion passes and uh we'll bring you back up to talk about the next item once I introduce it. Uh the next is
a public hearing uh to consider the application of EB Lakeville Development LLC for a preliminary plat of three outlaws to be known as Authentics Lakeville second edition. Mr. O'Keefe, could you come back up?
Do >> I need to introduce myself again or you're good. >> Okay, cool. Um, again, this is um as we work through our platting here, um, we've been navigating the appropriate way to address storm water. Um, and so
yeah, this is what we're after. Uh, again, this is all tied into how we put together this development. Perfect. >> Thank you, Miss Jensen. Good evening once again. Uh so this is for the authentics Lakeville second edition. Thank you Jack. Uh preliminary
plat. This uh property is directly adjacent to the site we were we were just talking about. I will point that out. That is roughly here. This is the property directly to the east. Um with the previous project the intent was that
storm water would be collected and treated underground. Um with the change in developer and changes to the site um the storm water is now intended to be um a pond created on the the parcel
directly to the east. uh because the preliminary plat was already approved for the parcel to the west and this one hadn't had any actions on this is a separate preliminary plat um of its own which is why we have separate public hearings for them. This
property is zoned commercial um as you can see here this is the preliminary plat um the property is proposed to be split into three outlots. Uh outlot A is the east
portion over here. I should add that this line here is the wetland boundary on the south here. Uh outlot B is where the storm water pond would be located and outlot C is the wetland area. That part would come to the city. You can see
here here's the 207th Street rightway that you've just recommended to be vacated. Um so no additional right ofway is required to be platted with this plat. That was done when um this parcel when this outlaw was platted as a part of that
authentics Lakeville plat. Uh the wetland delineation on the site is still is being updated. I think it's either close to or probably been finalized by now, but that does need to be done prior to city council consideration. And then outlot A must be platted into lots and
blocks. In other words, its own preliminary and final plat before any development could happen on that site. Just for reference purposes, here's the overall uh development area. County Road 70 is to the south here. You've got the apartment building here. The town home
buildings here. This is a um this is your access point and and people entering the site will either come and head to the west to go to the units or they could go to the right. The pond will be here on their north and continue through this private road um to provide
access to other commercial areas to the to the east. Uh a tree inventory was done for this site because it is subject to our new requirements. There is 218 in of trees proposed significant trees proposed to
be removed. Uh because the property is zone commercial, it has a 70% removal threshold. That's 152.6 six inches. Um because the site is removing all 218 of the trees within outlot B. Uh the it requires the
replacement of 32.7 in and they are proposing to plant 14 trees each 2 and a half inches for a total of 35 in on site. So they do meet those requirements and this plan has been re reviewed by the city forester and been approved.
Here's their planting plan. They are planting birch and swamp white oak on the site. Staff does recommend approval of the authentics Lakeville second edition preliminary plat subject to the three stipulations listed in the May 28th planning report. And I'll stand for any
questions you may have. >> Thank you. This is a public hearing. If there's anyone who wishes to speak on this item, please uh come up to the podium. Seeing anyone, do we have a Motion to close the public hearing. >> Mr. Chair, I make a motion to close the
public meeting. >> Second. >> We have first and a second to close the public hearing. All those in favor of closing the public hearing say I. >> I. >> I. >> Anybody opposed? Uh the public hearing is closed. Uh questions from the
commissioners. No questions. Uh >> Mr. Chair, I Make a motion to recommend to city council approval of the preliminary plat to be known as Authentics Lakeville, second edition, subject to the three stipulations in the
planning report dated May 28th, 2026. >> Second have a first and a second. Miss Ericson, could you do the role, please? >> Sweeney, >> I. Travis >> Iza >> I >> I >> I
uh motion passes u for the folks at Authentics and um thank you for your significant development in Lakeville and I hope the project goes very well for you. Thank you. Uh just a quick note that if I'm correct
in reading the memo that all three of these items will come in front of the council on June 15th. >> That would be the next available meeting. Um we'll see how the things >> go. So okay um you have your your notes
and the next uh planning commission meeting is on June 25th. Uh with that uh we're closed. Thank you.
