On June 15, 2004, the Planning Commission tabled the application and requested that the developer review traffic circulation and the location and layout of the drive-thru facilities. The developer has revised the site plan as follows: 1. Reduced the width of the northwesterly driveway entrance from 36.8 feet to 26 feet. 2. Shown the actual dimension from the edge of the roadway to the northwesterly driveway. 3. Eliminated the connection of the drive-thru traffic to the westerly parking lot area. 4. Added a separate exit for the drive-thru on the north side of the building. 5. Widened parking lot stalls to nine feet. 6. Increased the landscape area from 33% to 38% of the site. 7. Provided striping on the east side of the building to delineate the drive aisle area. 8. Relocated the southeasterly monument to meet setback requirements. 9. Added a sidewalk connection in the northwest comer of the site. 10. Added three-foot berms south of the parking lot. 11. Revised the landscaping plan. At the June 15, 2004 Planning Commission meeting, the applicant had revised the building elevation to comply with the design standards for EIFS and windows. The City of Chanhassen · . , : : : : Planning Commission CVS/pharmacy Planning Case No. 04-21 July 6, 2004 Page 2 ACCESS/TRAFFIC CIRCULATION At the June 15, 2004 Planning Commission (PC) meeting, the PC tabled action on this item due to some concerns over the parking and drive-thru layout. Since then, the applicant has submitted revised plans to address the concerns. Each of the issues is looked at in more detail below: Location of western drive-aisle access. Since the original submittal, the applicant has had the site resurveyed. With the new survey, the applicant discovered that their property line was incorrectly shown on the previous drawing. This, in turn, affected how close their proposed access was to Galpin Boulevard. Additionally, they have narrowed the neck of the access to the parking lot from 37.8 feet to 26 feet. The net result is that the new proposed access location is 70+ feet from the curb line of Galpin Boulevard compared with 42 feet previously. Staff did personally speak to Carver County on the proposed access locations to this site and their proximity to Galpin Boulevard, a Carver County road. The County had no issues with the access locations since the overall development access points to Galpin Boulevard and West 78th Street already exist. Staff believes the new access location works well from a traffic circulation standpoint. Moving this access even farther to the east could begin to cause conflicts with traffic entering/exiting the existing Kwik Trip site to the north. Location of Pharmacy Drive-thru. At the June 15, 2004 meeting, many of the Commissioners suggested moving the drive-thru to the east side of the proposed building. While the applicant has not changed the location of the drive-thru, the parking lot and drive aisle layout has been revised. Staff believes that these revisions provide a better functioning layout from a circulation standpoint than the previous submittal. The new layout provides space for up to three cars to be in the drive-thru queue without interrupting the traffic circulation of the drive aisle. On the previous submittal, no more than one car could be in the drive-thru without conflicting with the drive aisle traffic. The new layout also provides more opportunity for green space and landscaping on the north side of the building than the previous submittal. The only potential conflict point with the new drive-thru location is when traffic from the south parking lot has to make a left turn across the southbound traffic lane. Due to a lack of heavy traffic on the site, however, this left-turn movement should operate in a free-flow manner a majority of the time. Planning Commission CVS/pharmacy Planning Case No. 04-2l July 6, 2004 Page 3 LANDSCAPING/TREE PRESERVATION Minimum requirements for landscaping include 9,600 square feet of landscaped area around the parking lot, 6 trees for the parking lot, and bufferyard plantings along Highway 5, Great Plains Boulevard and West 78th Street, as well as neighboring property lines. The applicant's proposed plan as compared to the requirements for landscape area and parking lot trees is shown in the following table. Vehicular use landscape area Required 3,046 sq. ft. Trees/landscape area 12 canopy trees Highway 5 bufferyard B - 285' 3 canopy trees 6 understory trees 6 shrubs Proposed 31,851 sq. ft. 12 canopy trees 7 canopy 13 understory 51 shrubs Galpin Boulevard 5 canopy trees 5 canopy trees bufferyard B - 240' 10 understory trees 10 understory 14 shrubs 34 shrubs Boulevard Trees 8 canopy trees 5 canopy tree 1 per 30' Applicant meets minimum requirements for bufferyard plantings and parking lot requirements, but not boulevard tree requirements along Galpin Boulevard. Staff recommends that boulevard tree quantities be increased in order to meet minimum requirements as shown in the table. Additionally, the applicant has fully screened the parking lots fi'om the street through the use of shrubs.

Date: 05/07/04 Re: Vehicle Trip Generation Study for proposed CVS Pharmacy in Minneapolis, MN cc: Jon Wertjes, City of Minneapolis Background CVS Pharmacy is proposing to build a 13,013 square foot store with two drive-through windows on the southeast comer of 37th Avenue NE and Central Avenue NE in Minneapolis, MN. Standard traffic engineering practice for a new development is to forecast the traffic generated by the development using data contained in ITE's Trip Generation report. The ITE Trip Generation, 7~h Edition contains nationally collected traffic data for the Pharmacy/Drugstore with Drive-Through Window land use, but the data indicates that only one of the stores studied had two drive-through windows. City of Minneapolis staff expressed concem that the national data may not be relevant to the proposed CVS store (and future CVS stores in Minneapolis). Staff also expressed concern with the lack of data regarding how many vehicles use the drive-through windows. The purpose of this study is to collect p.m. peak hour trip generation data and drive-through window usage data at pharmacies that have two drive-through windows. Methodoloq¥ There are currently no operating CVS Pharmacy stores in the Twin Cities metropolitan region. City of Minneapolis staff agreed that data collected at urban Walgreens Pharmacy stores that have two drive-through windows would give comparable traffic data. TDI staff identified six urban Walgreens stores in the Twin Cities that have approximately 14,000 square feet and two drive-through windows. The number of vehicles entering and exiting the Walgreens stores were collected in 15 minute intervals between 4:00 DBE Certified in Minnesota Jim LaVelle CVS Pharmacy Trip Generation Page 2 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. The data is attached in Table 1. The peak hour traffic was calculated based on the data in Table 1. Summaries of the peak hour trip generation data is shown in Figures 1 and 2. The total number of vehicles using the drive through along with the longest queue in one drive through window was collected for each period. The pharmacy traffic is a subset of the number of vehicles entering and exiting the site. The drive-though window data is shown in Table 1. Findings The average trip generation rate for Pharmacy/Drugstore with Drive-Through Window (ITE Code 881) is 8.62 trips per 1000 Sq. Feet Gross Floor Area in the ITE Trip Generation, ?fh Edition. The average trip generation rate for the six Walgreens stores surveyed is 15.22 trips per 1000 Sq. Feet Gross Floor Area. The Trip Generation data contained one pharmacy that had two drive-through windows and it appears that it generated 17.46 trips per 1000 Sq. Feet Gross Floor Area. The rest or the pharmacies generated significantly less traffic. The average trip generation rate of 15.22 trips per 1000 Sq. Feet Gross Floor Area calculated by this survey seems reasonable. The drive through window data shows a maximum queue of 3 vehicles waiting at a drive- through lane at any one time. Customer sale and drive-through data is attached in Table 2 from CVS Pharmacy stores in the Chicago, IL metropolitan area. The trip generation rate from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. is approximately 13 trips per 1000 Sq. Feet Gross Floor Area. The average number of vehicles using the drive-through windows during the same period is ten vehicles. This data is consistent with the data collected from the Walgreens Pharmacy stores.

Cincinnati, OH 45242 (513) 793-1500 Chanhassen Development, LLC 1434 Salem Lane SW Rochester, MN 55902 (507) 252-6742 PRESENT ZONING: Planned Unit Development 2020 LAND USE PLAN: Commercial ACREAGE: 1.9 acres DENSITY: 0.16 F. A. R. SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The developer is requesting site plan approval for a 13,013 square foot commercial building with a drive-through pharmacy window. Included as part of the request are variances for the parking lot setback and signage. LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION-MAKING: The City's discretion in approving or denying a site plan is limited to whether or not the proposed project complies with Zoning Ordinance requirements. If it meets these standards, the City must then approve the site plan. This is a quasi-judicial decision. The City's discretion in approving or denying a variance is limited to whether or not the proposed project meets the standards in the Zoning Ordinance for a variance. The City has a relatively high level of discretion with a variance because the applicant is seeking a deviation from established standards. This is a quasi judicial decision. Planning Commission CVS/pharmacy Case No. 04-21 June 14, 2004 Page 2 PROPOSAL/SUMMARY The developer is proposing the development of the site at the northeast comer of Highway 5 and Galpin Boulevard. The development includes site plan approval for a one-story, 13,013 square foot CVS/pharmacy with a drive-through window. The proposed use is permitted within the PUD. The developer is requesting variances from the parking standards to permit parking to encroach 38 feet into the required 70-foot parking setback along Highway 5 as well as a variance to permit more than one row of parking in the front setback. In addition, the developer is requesting a variance to permit a 24-foot tall pylon from the permitted sign height (15 feet) and a variance to permit the monument sign approximately 12 feet fi'om the property line. The property immediately to the north is developed with the Kwik Trip convenience store with gas pumps and a car wash. The property to the east is owned by the city and is part of the Bluff Creek Corridor. To the west across Galpin Boulevard is the John Przymus property which has concept approval for a "family fun center" and potential office users. The property to the south across Highway 5 contains Bluff Creek Elementary School and the Chanhassen Recreation Center. To the southwest across Highway 5 and Galpin Boulevard is the Autumn Ridge development which contains townhouses. The site shares access with Kwik Trip to both Galpin Boulevard and West 78th Street. City sewer and water was provided to the site as part of the Galpin Business Park development and is located within the common driveway. Storm water ponding is provided to the northeast of the property. The site was previously rough graded as part of Interim Use Permit #2000-1 for Larry Van DeVeire, who built up the site to its present configuration. The development of the site as proposed is logical and in compliance with the design standards of the Galpin Business Park and the Design Standards for Commercial, Industrial and Office Institutional Developments of City Code, with the exception of the parking location standards. However, it is due to the site configuration, the need to locate the building entrance facing Highway 5, and the commercial necessity of providing parking near the front entrance that the parking variances are required. In regard to site signage, the existing pylon sign adequately provides visibility to the site and the monument sign can be relocated to meet the development design standards while maintaining visibility so that a variance for signage is not justified or warranted. The building architecture generally complies with the architectural standards. Staff is recommending approval of the site plan with the parking setback and location variances and denial of the sign variances subject to the conditions of the staff report. BACKGROUND On February 25, 2002, the Chanhassen City Council approved the final plat for PUD #2002-1, Galpin Business Park.

Additionally, the developer shall install benches on both the Highway 5 and Galpin Boulevard sides of the building. Loading Areas, Refuse Area, etc. Loading dock overhead doors and the trash enclosure are located on the southeast corner of the building. This area will be screened during the summer by the trees in the Outlot area to the east which is part of the bluff creek corridor. ~'~ff ........ ao ,t,~, ,r,~ two ~;~t, Planning Commission CVS/pharmacy Case No. 04-21 June 14, 2004 Page 5 Lot Frontage and Parking Location The site fronts on Highway 5. One row of parking is allowed in the front setback. The developer is requesting a variance from both the setback requirement and the limitation to one row of parking. The parking lot shall be screened through the use of berming and hedges. The parking lot, at its closest to the pavement for Highway 5, is 85 feet away from the roadway. LANDSCAPING 3,4 !3 sq. ft. fi shrubs !2 shrubs 3! shrubs 5 underste, ry trees Minimum requirements for landscaping include 9,600 sq. ft. of landscaped area around the parking lot, 6 trees for the parking lot, and bufferyard plantings along highway 5, Great Plains Blvd. and W. 78th Street, as well as neighboring property lines.

Staff recommends that boulevard tree quantities be increased in order to meet minimum requirements as shown in the table. Additionally, the applicant has fully screened the parking lots fi'om the street through the use of shrubs. WETLANDS Existing Wetlands There is one ag/urban wetland located off the subject property near the southeast corner of the site. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass and cattail, with box elder trees around the perimeter. No wetland impacts are proposed in conjunction with this project. All structures shall maintain a 50-foot setback from the edge of the wetland (10 foot wetland buffer plus 40- foot structure setback). BLUFF CREEK NATURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT PLAN This site is adjacent to the Primary and Secondary Corridors of the Bluff Creek Natural Resources Management Area. The purpose of the Primary Corridor is to delineate a conservancy zone where undisturbed conditions are desired, since any type of human activity in this area may directly impact Bluff Creek. The Secondary Corridor is a management zone where development and/or urban activities directly affect Bluff Creek's ecosystem. The primary corridor boundary on the southern portion of the property is at the 940 elevation. The secondary corridor boundary follows the 962 elevation. All structures must maintain a 40- foot setback from the primary corridor boundary. No grading may occur within the first 20 feet of this setback. GRADING~ DRAINAGE AND EROSION CONTROL The site was previously rough-graded as part of the Galpin Business Park development. Only minor grading remains to prepare the site for a building pad elevation of 966.5. The site is Planning Commission CVS/pharmacy Case No. 04-21 June 14, 2004 Page 7 designed to drain away from the building to proposed catch basins on all sides. These catch basins will connect to an existing storm sewer system which drains to an existing NURP pond just east of the Kwik Trip store. The NURP pond has been previously sized to accommodate drainage from this site. No additional ponding improvements are necessary. Storm sewer sizing calculations will need to be submitted for review prior to building permit approval. A retaining wall, ranging from 0' to 16' in height, is proposed along the east comer of the site. Due to its height, this wall must be designed by a registered structural engineer and a permit from the Building Department must be obtained for its construction. Erosion control measures and site restoration must be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Staff would recommend that the City's Type II silt fence be used adjacent to the wetland on the east side of the site. In addition, a 75-foot minimum rock construction entrance must be included at the main access drive to the site. Storm Water Management The proposed development is required to maintain existing runoff rates. Storm water calculations should be submitted to verify that the existing storm water pond is sized adequately for the proposed development. Easements Drainage and utility easements should be provided over all existing wetlands, wetland mitigation areas, buffer areas used as PVC and storm water ponds. Erosion Control Erosion control blanket shall be installed on all slopes greater than or equal to 3:1. All exposed soil areas shall have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover year round, according to the following table of slopes and time frames: Type of Slope Time Steeper than 3:1 7 days 10:1 to 3:1 14 days Flatter than 10:1 21 days (Maximum time an area can remain open when the area is not actively being worked.) These areas include constructed storm water management pond side slopes, and any exposed soil areas with a positive slope to a storm water conveyance system, such as a curb and gutter system, storm sewer inlet, temporary or permanent drainage ditch or other natural or man-made systems that discharge to a surface water system. Street cleaning of soil tracked onto public streets shall include daily street scraping and street sweeping as-needed. Planning Commission CVS/pharmacy Case No. 04-21 June 14, 2004 Page 8 Other Agencies The applicant shall apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies (e.g., Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (for &watering), Army Corps of Engineers) and comply with their conditions of approval. UTILITIES Municipal sanitary sewer and water is available to the site from the existing private drive to the north. The applicant is proposing to connect to existing sewer and water lines on the north side of the site and extend private services to the proposed pharmacy building. According to the City's Finance Department records, the site was previously assessed for utilities. The remaining assessment due payable to the City at the time of building permit application is $10,479. In addition, sanitary sewer and water hook-up charges along with the Met Council's SAC fee will be due at the time of building permit issuance. The 2004 trunk utility hook-up charge is $1,458 per unit for sanitary sewer and $2,814 per unit for water. The 2002 SAC fee is $1,425 per unit. The hook-up charges and SAC fee are based on the number of SAC units assigned by the Met Council. The applicant is responsible for obtaining permits from the appropriate regulatory agency including, but not limited to: Carver County, the Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District, and the MPCA. Planning Commission CVS/pharmacy Case No. 04-21 June 14, 2004 Page 9 STREETS/ACCESS No public streets are proposed with this project. Full site access will be gained off of the existing private driveway just north of the site. There is an existing cross-access easement for this private driveway. Overall development accesses include a right-in/right-out access on Galpin Boulevard, a right-in access on West 78th Street, and a full access on West 78th Street. Due to the large number of U-turns at the intersection of Galpin Boulevard/West 78th Street from traffic exiting the site onto Galpin Boulevard and wanting to get to Highway 5, staff will be communicating with Carver County on the installation of a "No U-Turn" sign at the intersection. Gal?in Boulevard. All sidewalks shall be provided with accessible ramps. LIGHTING/SIGNAGE Site area lighting is shoe box fixtures with metal halide lamps. The developer is proposing two single-head and two double-head light fixtures for parking lighting and nine wall-pack lighting units around the building. Light poles are to be consistent throughout the development, square, pre-finished, 30' maximum to the highest point. All site lighting must be shielded to prevent any off-site spillage and glare with a 90-degree or less cutoff angle. The developer is proposing a 24-foot tall pylon on the corner of Highway 5 and Galpin Boulevard. This sign requires a variance. As part of the Galpin Business Park development, a 15-foot tall pylon was approved to accommodate both site users. The existing pylon should provide sufficient visibility for the development. The site is also permitted a five-foot tall monument sign. However, the sign is proposed too close to Highway 5. Staff believes the monument sign can be relocated to maintain the required setback and still provide sufficient visibility for the project. A separate sign permit shall be required prior to the installation of any site signage, except for directional and traffic control signs, which shall be shown on the construction plan for the project. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the following motions (A & B): A.

Public Hearing Notice & Affidavit of Mailing g:\planX2004 planning cases\04-21 - cvs pharmacy spr & var\staff report cvs.doc CITY OF CHANHASSEN CARVER AND HENNEPIN COUNTIES, MINNESOTA FINDINGS OF FACT AND RECOMMENDATION IN RE: Application of Bear Creek Capital, LLC and Chanhassen Development, LLC for Site Plan Review for a 13,013 square foot commercial building with a drive-through pharmacy window with variances from the parking standards to permit parking to encroach 38 feet in to the required 70 parking setback along Highway 5 as well as a variance to permit more than one row of parking in the front setback and variance requests to permit a 24 feet tall pylon instead of the permitted sign height (15 feet) and a variance to permit the monument sign approximately 12 feet from the property line, rather than the required 25 feet. On June 15, 2004, the Chanhassen Planning Commission met at its regularly schedule meeting to consider the application of Bear Creek Capital, LLC and Chanhassen Development, LLC for a site plan review for the property located at The northeast comer of Highway 5 and Galpin Boulevard. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed site plan which was preceded by published and mailed notice. The Planning Commission heard testimony from all interested persons wishing to speak and now makes the following: FINDINGS OF FACT 2. 3. 4. The property is currently zoned Planned Unit Development, PUD The property is guided by the Land Use Plan for commercial. The legal description of the property is: Lot 2, Block 1, Galpin Business Park Section 20-110: Site Plan (1) The development of the site is consistent with the elements and objectives of the city's development guides, subject to approval of the parking variances, including the comprehensive plan, official road mapping, and other plans that may be adopted; (2) The development of the site is consistent with the site plan review requirements; (3) The development of the site is preserves the site in its natural state to the extent practicable by minimizing tree and soil removal and designing grade changes to be in keeping with the general appearance of the neighboring developed or developing or developing areas; (4) The development of the site is creates a harmonious relationship of building and open space with natural site features and with existing and future buildings having a visual relationship to the development; (5) The development of the site is creates a functional and harmonious design for structures and site features, with special attention to the following: ao An internal sense of order for the buildings and use on the site and provision of a desirable environment for occupants, visitors and general community; b. The amount and location of open space and landscaping; Materials, textures, colors and details of construction as an expression of the design concept and the compatibility of the same with adjacent and neighboring structures and uses; and Vehicular and pedestrian circulation, including walkways, interior drives and parking in terms of location and number of access points to the public streets, width of interior drives and access points, general interior circulation, separation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic and arrangement and amount of parking. (6) The development of the site is protects adjacent and neighboring properties through reasonable provision for surface water drainage, sound and sight buffers, preservation of views, light and air and those aspects of design not adequately covered by other regulations which may have substantial effects on neighboring land uses. 5. Section 20-1253 states the city council, upon the recommendation of the planning commission, may grant a variance from the requirements for signage where it is shown that by reason of topography or other conditions, strict compliance with the requirements of this article would cause a hardship; provided that a variance may be granted only if the 2 variance does not adversely affect the spirit or intent of this article. In the instance of CVS, there are no topographic or other conditions which interfere with the visibility of the signs. An existing pylon sign, designed to accommodate both site users within the Galpin Lakes Business Park has been constructed. Each site is permitted signage on one- half of the sign face. 6. The Board of Adjustments and Appeals shall not recommend and the City Council shall not grant a variance to the parking standards unless they find the following facts: The literal enforcement of this chapter would cause an undue hardship. Undue hardship means that the property cannot be put to reasonable use because of its size, physical surroundings, shape or topography. The site is zoned and guided for commercial use. However, the lot line along Galpin Boulevard is skewed to the east creating a trapezoidal lot, while commercial lots are developed in a rectangular fashion. The conditions upon which a petition for a variance is based are not applicable, generally, to other property within the same zoning classification. The city design standards require that the site entrance be located facing Highway 5. The function of a commercial-retail building requires that parking be provided adjacent to the entrance. Co The purpose of the variation is not based upon a desire to increase the value or income potential of the parcel of land, but to facilitate the use of the site for a commercial-retail use. d. The alleged difficulty or hardship is not a self-created hardship. The property lines are a function of the existing location of Galpin Boulevard and Highway 5. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel is located. Development of the site will enhance the neighborhood and community. The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets or increase the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. 7. The planning report #04-21 dated June 15, 2004, prepared by Robert Generous, et al, is incorporated herein. RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the site plan review, approval of the parking setback and location variances, and denial of the sign variances.

This is a comment regarding the proposed development just south of the Kwik Trip at the corner of Highway 5 and Galpin. I don't know what is being proposed in the way of variance for parking and signage but, we are in favor of this type of business in the area. This business will bring a certain amount of traffic but not an exceptional amount as to congest the intersection. I know that these things tend to take a long time to get through the system and many questions will need to be answered before the project is approved and built. We are excited to have this business in the area. Thank you.

Public Present: Name Address Mark Jaster Bill Tippmann 3052 Rhode Island Avenue, St. Louis Park 9549 Montomary Road, Cincinnati, OH Bob Generous presented the staff report on this item. Sacchet: Thank you. Questions from staff. Lillehaug: Of course I have a few. Sacchet: Turn the mic on. Lillehaug: I have questions with a Preservation. I looked at the previous Any questions from staff? Steve. couple items here. One, landscape entry. schedule and I guess I'm curious why the requirements have changed so much when really the parameters of the lot or building haven't changed significantly. Generous: I discussed that with Jill. I had that same question and she believes what she did is pulled in the table and didn't, thought she changed the numbers and hadn't changed them. Put in the proposed has changed significantly too so. Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 Lillehaug: Okay. And would you please comment on the fact, sometimes more information is worst I guess because then it gives me more to look at. But on their memo that the developer provided to us. On page 2 of their findings they indicated that the ITE code has an average trip generation to use for design of 8.62 trips per 1,000 square feet. And what they actually found with the Walgreen's stores is about double that. 15.2. A little bit less than double that. So with their trip generation being double, does that mean that they should be providing, would that be a direct correlation of parking? Would that mean that even though they're meeting their requirements of parking, would staff concur that maybe we need to look at parking a little more since their trips are doubling? And their parking was just a little above what we required. Do you have any concerns with that? Generous: I don't. I wonder if that might be a better question for the applicant. We believe that they have sufficient parking for a retail operation. Part of those numbers also includes the drive thru traffic which won't be parking. It will just be driving through the lots. They're comfortable. They're over the minimum that we have. Exceed what our requirements are. Lillehaug: Okay. Page 2 of your report, you indicate quote, moving this access even further, I should tell you where I'm at here. It's about the fifth paragraph down and it's referring to the northwest driveway onto the site off of the private road. You indicate moving this access even farther to the east could begin to cause conflicts with traffic entering, exiting the existing Kwik Trip site to the north. Do you and does engineering agree with that statement? Saam: Yes. I agree with it. I wrote it so. Lillehaug: Okay. Sacchet: That was easy. Saam: Do you understand what I'm saying there? Getting it closer to that existing Kwik Trip access, you'll have conflicting movements in close proximity to each other. Lillehaug: I guess I totally disagree with it. I know this ain't a question but since we're talking about it, if you're, I know it's not a road but if your road, you want to line your intersections up. It makes sense so you don't have staggered intersections. It's a lot safer. Likewise in a parking lot, you'd line your drive aisles up. You don't want staggered intersections so I don't understand the reasoning behind that because my opinion is is that you want to line them driveways up. So I don't know if you have anything further to add. Saam: Yeah, no I totally agree with you Commissioner Lillehaug. What I was getting at is if you couldn't line them up, then to have them in close proximity but have them staggered is worst than getting them separated where motorists can have some time to react to people turning out from another access. That's what I was trying to get at. 2 Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 Sacchet: Makes sense. Lillehaug: One other question then I'm done. The last paragraph on the same page. You indicate that there's better opportunity for more green space on the north side of the building. When I look at other developments, I mean Village on the Ponds, and maybe it's not a good comparison but I guess I don't see the need to have additional green space on the north compared with more green space on the south. I'd prefer to have the green space on the west and south. Would staff, I mean obviously you're stating your opinion here but do you still concur with what you're saying there? That we do want to provide more green space on the north of that building? Generous: We like that they're providing more green space in this rather than a drive thru aisle all the way through. If we had our druthers, yes but then your question, back to is there sufficient parking on site and you have to balance all that. Had we, were we able to flip this building and put the entrance to the northwest, we could shift the building over to the east and you know get all that green on the perimeter but then we defeat the city's purpose of trying to bring life out to the public street. Lillehaug: Did you discuss with the developer about getting rid of that drive aisle on the north? Well I know they did partly but you know making one way traffic through the site so they could shift that building to the north and provide the appropriate parking setbacks which they still need a variance for. I mean it doesn't look to me like they addressed any of that. ! mean they kind of did. Generous: No they didn't. Except they were going with their function for their operation. They have the entrance and all kitty comer from that is where they have their pharmacy facilities and drive thru. Trying to accommodate that. Lillehaug: Okay. That's it for me. Thanks. Sacchet: No questions Dan? Keefe: I have one question. It's in regards to traffic exiting the site and then wanting to go down to Highway 5 and going south on Galpin. At least on the signage piece, I didn't see any signs that should say go east to go up to West 78th and then take a left. Is that something that would be possible to add to the site or? Saam: Yeah, that's our intent is to require, if it's not in here as a condition I apologize but at the time of building permit to make sure that there's a sign saying Highway 5 this way. Keefe: Go east, okay. Good. That's it. Sacchet: Okay. Craig, you have any questions? Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 Claybaugh: Yes. Let's see here. Hopefully it hasn't been covered. Was there any data available for the average service time. I know that they identified they had 3 cues in conjunction with the drive thru service. Is there any data available for the average service time? Generous: I didn't request any of that. The applicant may have. Claybaugh: I'll reserve that question for the applicant. Sacchet: Okay. I don't have too much more questions. You know on the bottom of page 2 you're saying the only potential conflict point between the new drive thru location is when traffic on the south parking lot is trying to go out and people coming in from the north into this, okay. And so at this point the maximum stacking is 3 cars, right? Once it's. Generous: Without going into the driveway. Sacchet: Without getting into the drive aisle. Okay. And based on the study that there is never more than 3, they're accommodating what we need, right? Generous: Yes. Sacchet: Okay, that's all my questions. That's it for questions. Alright, with that I'd like to invite the applicant to come forward. If you have anything to add in terms of where we were last time. Where we are now. State your name and address for the record please. Bill Tippmann: Good evening again. My name is Bill Tippmann. I'm Vice President of Bear Creek Capital from Cincinnati, Ohio and would like to address any questions you may have. Sacchet: Thank you very much. Questions from the applicant. Craig, you had one. Claybaugh: ...question I asked previously of staff. The average service time of the drive thru. You indicate 3 cues. They identified that there typically isn't more than 3 customers being serviced at the drive thru at any one time. They feel that's sufficient. I was just curious what the average service time was. Bill Tippmann: I'll have to apologize. I'm a bit rusty on that study. It's been several months since I've read it. Claybaugh: I'll accept the best you can do. Bill Tippmann: But I believe the logic was that they physically observed several CVS stores in Chicago, if I'm not mistaken, as well as some Walgreen's here in Minneapolis, or the Twin Cities area. And they observed, there were there to observe the length of 4 Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 cars, how many cars were sitting at the stacking at any point in time. The most they ever observed was 3. I don't believe they got into how long it takes to serve... Claybaugh: Okay, so that was the extent of the methodology they used. Bill Tippmann: Yes. Sacchet: Wasn't it last time I recall you point out that one of the outer drive thru is just to drop off prescriptions so there is, it's almost like a mailbox. People don't really linger. Bill Tippmann: Yes. Right. That's the way it functions. You drop off your prescription in the tube and then you come back to the other window. Sacchet: Would you drop it off and talk to the person? Bill Tippmann: I guess you would have if you had any questions certainly. I think there's a substantial number of people who use that window who have called in previously, or the doctor has. Sacchet: Specifically drop off at that point. Bill Tippmann: Yes. Sacchet: And then the pick-up, I guess what would help give a little framework. Claybaugh: ! was just trying to follow the methodology they used, if there was any difference in services at this location over the study locations. Parallel to what Commissioner Sacchet had just identified. Just wanted to understand the complete methodology. Bill Tippmann: The way that window functions, the only thing you can purchase there is pharmaceuticals. You can't buy over the counter medication. You can't buy milk. Sacchet: So you basically pick up what... Bill Tippmann: Exactly, you pick up prescriptions. Sacchet: Does that answer your question? Claybaugh: Yes, that answers my question. Thanks. Sacchet: Other questions from the applicant. Any other questions? Steve, go ahead. Lillehaug: I assume you heard my question I asked staff before regarding parking. Trip generation doubles. Are you okay with your parking on that site? Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 Bill Tippmann: We, as I believe I stated the last time we were here, we are a developer, select developer for CVS. We do stores here in Minneapolis and in the Cincinnati/Dayton area in Ohio. One, they are more restrictive. They want slightly more parking typically than code will provide, and their number is in the 65 to 70 range. Well we have 70 provided on this, so we're comfortable and CVS is comfortable. Lillehaug: Okay. How about berming? I see the revised plans have taken into consideration the revised contours out there, and grading. I guess my opinion is, is we don't have much be~q-ning out there. The parking isn't totally screened from berming and trees out there. I mean there's probably only a 1 to 2 foot berm inbetween the parking lot and Trunk Highway 5. Is there, are you open to possibly providing more berming? Bill Tippmann: Certainly. To the extent that it doesn't screen the building. The way I've always heard this. Lillehaug: The parking is I guess is what I'm. Bill Tippmann: The way I've always heard, and I don't know whether there's any truth in it or not but the methodology that most designers will use is to screen the fronts of cars. The bumpers, the headlights, those kind of things. To the extent that the berms are, or with shrubs on top are high enough to achieve that, that usually satisfies the design intent. That's the way I've always heard it, and yes we are receptive to doing that. Lillehaug: And could I guess you comment on the general revisions you made to the overall circulation and why you didn't look at, trying to shift the building back to the north and providing the adequate parking setback on the south. Bill Tippmann: We actually produced plans that had the drive thru on the east side of the building, and when we looked at it in it's totality with the conflicts that it then generated between the stacking for the pick-up window and the service area in the rear, we thought this was a better balance. We thought this still achieved what the Planning Commission was asking for last time and that is to provide a method for the people at the drive thru window to exit the site without having to load the intersection any more at Galpin then it needed to be. And in balance I think we just felt this was a better blend. Lillehaug: I think that is all I have for now, thanks. Sacchet: Thank you very much. Appreciate it. Bill Tippmann: Thank you. Sacchet: Now this is not a public hearing. We took comments for that last time but I do want to ask is anybody here to address this item? No, it doesn't look like it. So we'll have it for discussion and comments. Commissioners. Any opinions? Things to add. Over what we discussed last time. 6 Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 Claybaugh: Nothing new to add. Sacchet: Nothing new to add? Okay. Want to add something Steve? Lillehaug: Comments I guess is I would still like to see more berming on the south. ! don't think we're quite high enough. I'm looking at the grades and I think we can do better than what we're showing. There's plenty of footage inbetween the parking lot and trunk highway 5 and I think we can get a berm a little bit higher than that wouldn't screen the building but it would better screen the parking lot, And also on the Galpin side, I guess I'm, the screening on that site is pretty inadequate. I mean we're, I know we talked about it before but pretty much absent of the berm at all on that site and there is space inbetween the parking lot on the west and the trail on the west that I think they could provide somewhat of a berm anyways, as well as like staff has indicated at least providing a minimum amount of canopy on the trees. And so I definitely concur with staff on providing more canopy trees on that side. I guess looking at the site plan revisions, they didn't push the building back to the north but I guess it's a better balance than what we saw before in my opinion. I really don't like encroaching on the parking setback on the south side. I think it's pretty important not to encroach in that setback. But am I going to let that hold this up in my mind, I mean I think I'll let it go. As far as support wise goes, since they do have a few extra parking stalls in there, somehow maybe they could get rid of a couple parking stalls in the very southeast comer of the parking lot so it provides less of an encroachment area. And I don't see that as a major factor in my support on this but it's just an idea. Other than that, I'm in support of the application. Sacchet: Thanks Steve. Any other comments? Keefe: I think we definitely want to add, make sure the signage piece is in there in terms of making sure the exit for getting onto 5 and going south on Galpin is added as a condition. Sacchet: I missed the last part. Keefe: To make sum that we have signs in there to make sure that, exiting to south Galpin and Highway 5 are added to the site so that people going to the east. Sacchet: Yep. Kurt, you have a comment? Papke: I think it's kind of just getting to the berming issue. It looks like about a 3 foot berm from what I, you know from reading the plan. Plus there's the crab apple trees and there's a fair number of trees out in the front them. I suspect the applicant wants some visibility. He said, you know of the building they want to screen the cars. It looks like they're achieving that so I guess I don't share your concern with the size of the berm. It looks like a pretty good balance between the row of shrubs, right along the edge of the parking lot, the crab apple trees. Nice trees. 3 to 4 foot berm. Doesn't look all that bad to me. Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 Sacchet: Alright, I don't have really much to add. Lillehaug: Can I have my, maybe rebuttal comments. Sacchet: Sure, rebuttal. Lillehaug: When I look at my point of elevations I look on the southwest comer. It's about 866, and then I look at the parking lot in that same area. It's about 865. And the berm isn't much higher. It's all relative to where you're looking at so to me it's not much of a berm and could I ask your comment on berming on the Galpin side. Does anybody have any comments on that? I mean there's only 20-30 feet inbetween the sidewalk and the parking lot. There's not much room to put a berm in there but at least some. I guess overall I just see developments out there that yeah, they come in with a berm plan and then when it actually gets built, there's no berm out there. So I would rather have more shown in these plans so we at least get some berm out there. And that's all I have, thanks. Sacchet: Go ahead. Slagle: Commissioner Lillehaug, I'm trying to think on Kwik Trip, are there berms? Lillehaug: I think there's a slight berm inbetween Galpin. Slagle: Okay. Sacchet: Does staff have an opinion on that? Generous: I like berms. Sacchet: You like berms? Aanenson: Yeah, I think that's one of the goals that was mentioned by the applicant. Certainly our goal to screen the parking lots and that's why we have done, we did the Highway 5 corridor study. Depending on when you certainly have the width on the front, just as Highway 5 and Galpin, that's something, I think that's where Jill was coming back to say it's important that we add some additional canopy to get those different heights and different types of trees. But certainly we'll take a look at that. At that narrow, you'd have to certainly the irrigation and all, how we, or drip lines, that's all important to make sure it lives and we get the tight species in there. But it's to screen the lights when people park their cars and the noise and some of that sort of thing too. Sacchet: Maybe the balance is that we would have something that the applicant work with staff. I don't think it's big enough of a deal to make a condition, and it's not like if it would be a neighborhood next door, there'd be a real issue in berming and buffering and all that but next to a major road, I don't think it's that crucial. Maybe that would be the balance point. With that one. I don't really have much comments except I do want to Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 acknowledge my appreciation that I think the applicant really did do due diligence in taking our comments from last time we looked at this into consideration and I think it's a significantly improved proposal in terms of the concerns we voiced last time so I want to thank you for that. With that I'm willing to take a motion. Claybaugh: I'll make a motion the Planning Commission recommends site plan approval of Planning Case # 04-21, plans prepared by Anderson Engineering of Minnesota, LLC, dated May 5, 2004, revised 5-13-04, 5-20-04 and 6-24-04, with a 38-foot variance from the parking setback requirement and a variance to permit two rows of parking between the building and the road based on the attached findings and recommendation and subject to the following conditions 1 through 26 and I guess I'd like to come back with respect to the commissioners comments on directional signage out to Galpin and Highway 5. You indicated you thought that was in there. I didn't see it. Saam: No, I apologize. It's not. Claybaugh: So would add condition number 27 to address the directional signage. Slagle: With no U turn. Claybaugh: Directional signage and any appropriate restrictions. Keefe: The U turn would be out on Galpin, right? Slagle: The U turn is going away. Saam: Well that's a county issue. We have talked with the county and they really don't see a need for that right now so that's something we're going to have to, if we want to push that continued to work with them on it so, I guess if we could not condition the U turn one and just the directional at this point. Claybaugh: Okay, with respect to with what was handed out just before the meeting here, would that become an additional condition? Aanenson: Yes. Claybaugh: So that would be condition number 28. Do I need to read that through Kate? Regarding condition for drive aisles as submitted by city staff dated July the 6th. Do I need to read that in entirety or not? Aanenson: I just think for the record, just that the driveway access. Sacchet: Yeah, just read it. Short. Claybaugh: The minimum width per city code, this to address condition number 28. Drive aisles. The minimum width per city code for one way traffic drive aisles within Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 business districts is 20 feet. As such the plans for CVS Pharmacy must be revised to comply with the ordinance and increase the drive aisle width for the drive thru exit from 16 to 20 feet. Sufficient? So that would be conditions I through 26. 27 addressed directional signage. 28 addressed drive aisle widths. Sacchet: We have a motion. Is there a second? Keefe: Second. Sacchet: We have a motion, we have a second. Are there any friendly amendments? Lillehaug: Point of clarification. Maybe I'm not paying attention here but previous one we had to have a sign variance. Sacchet: That's B. Letter B. After the conditions on page 6. We're going to need a second motion for that. Lillehaug: Okay. Sacchet: And the proposal says we deny the sign variance which nobody seemed to think we wanted the sign except, we had discussion about that one a little bit. Let's finish this one. Any friendly amendments? Do we want to say we want to do something there? Lillehaug: I would like to say work with staff on berming on the south and west side. Claybaugh: That's acceptable. Sacchet: Acceptable? Alright. Claybaugh moved, Keefe seconded that the Planning Commission recommends approval of Site Plan approval of Planning Case # 04-21, plans prepared by Anderson Engineering of Minnesota, LLC, dated May 5, 2004, revised 5-13-04, 5-20- 04 and 6-24-04, with a 38-foot variance from the parking setback requirement and a variance to permit two rows of parking between the building and the road based on the attached findings and recommendation and subject to the following conditions: The applicant shall enter into a site plan agreement with the City and provide the necessary security to guarantee erosion control, site restoration and landscaping.

Is there any discussion about that first? Which is the issue about the sign variance for the pylon sign. Right? Generous: Yes. Sacchet: Pylon sign. Is there any discussion? Any comments about it? Somebody want to make a motion? Claybaugh: Follow up with a motion. Planning Commission recommends denial of the sign variance based on the attached findings of fact and recommendation. Sacchet: Second please. Lillehaug: Second. Claybaugh moved, Lillehaug seconded that the Planning Commission recommends denial of the sign variance based on the attached findings of fact and recommendation. All voted in favor, except Slagle who opposed, and the motion carried with a vote of 5 to 1. Sacchet: This will go to council on the 12th. That's going to be real soon. In summary for City Council, we found the applicant was very responsive to the concerns we voiced when this came in front of us first time. In terms of revising the design or fine tuning the design I should say of the drive thru portion and the traffic situation. Adding some more green space. And we were struggling a little bit, some of us at least with encroachment with the parking into the easement. But under the circumstances overall we think it's a good proposal. We'd like, at least some of us like to have some additional consideration that looks at berming and the buffer planting to see whether that could possibly be improved a little bit, and other than that I think this is a pretty clear, straight forward thing. Anything you'd like to add? Claybaugh: Chairman, could Commissioner Slagle comment on his dissenting vote? 13 Planning Commission Meeting - July 6, 2004 Slagle: No comment on that. But I would say, if I can ask that the city work with the county. Sacchet: On the U turn? Okay. Slagle: I think that's going to be an issue. Sacchet: Okay. Yeah, and we do want to point out that we had one commissioner not in favor of denying the extra pylon sign. But the opinion generally is that there is an existing pylon sign that was originally intended to serve both properties and that we would like to stick with that agreement. Alright, that's this item. Good luck with it. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Commissioner Slagle noted the verbatim and summary minutes of the Planning Commission meeting dated June 15, 2004 as presented. Sacchet: And so we'll adjourn to have discussion. No? Slagle: I don't know if there's anybody that wants to have any comments. Sacchet: To? Slagle: I see Mr. Anderson here. Aanenson: I think he's probably here for the next item. Sacchet: I think they're here for discussion so meeting's adjourned.
